Su Wu was greatly shocked to hear Jia Lin say this.
Is this guy planning to find them a fake to fool them?
But since the money has already been paid, we should at least see what kind of quality it is.
He subtly gave Erpi a wink.
Erpi immediately rubbed his hands together and said with a smile, "That's great, why don't you call him over for a chat?"
"This isn't the place to talk business. I think we should go somewhere else. The boss has been working very hard lately. If you weren't busy, I would have arranged something for him."
He had barely opened his mouth when Wang Baiwan, who had been chiming in from the side, spoke up.
Su Wu sneered inwardly upon hearing this.
These two weren't content with just getting free food; they wanted to scam something else too.
Erpi was quite adept at this and immediately put on a fawning smile.
"Brother Baiwan, you know Beijing well, right? How about you recommend a place and I'll make the arrangements?"
“Since you’re so kind, I’ll definitely help you. I think Earl Jin is a good choice; there are fewer shady characters around.”
Wang Baiwan didn't mince words and went along with it, directly suggesting a place.
Su Wu was unaware of these things; if he were in America, they would have made him completely obedient.
Seeing the excitement flash in the eyes of the two swindlers, he smiled and nodded.
"Then let's listen to Brother Wang. It'll be a good opportunity for everyone to relax."
The capital city was unfamiliar to Su Wu.
In his previous life, he had only visited the capital four times, and the first three times were all before 2005.
The last time was when he fled after sending Su Liuliu's entire family to their deaths.
That time it was just a rushed trip to the airport, and it didn't have much of an impact.
Upon arriving at the club, Su Wu's only impression was that while the facilities were luxurious, the service was lacking.
After all, his soul had been free and unrestrained in the United States, so one can only imagine what his environment would be like more than a decade later.
He waited listlessly until the person Jia Lindao introduced arrived, and only then did he perk up a bit.
The man who came was a young man in his thirties, wearing glasses and looking refined.
However, the person who came looked rather haggard, and seemed to be in a bad situation.
Upon seeing the visitor, Jia Lindao patted him on the shoulder and introduced him.
"This young man is named Chen Zhe. He is a planner in the advertising department of CCTV and has been working there for several years. He is a talented person."
"Chen Zhe, this is President Su, this is Junior President Wang, and this is Senior President Wang. President Su wants to see you today, so seize the opportunity."
After saying that, he patted Chen Zhe on the shoulder heavily, sounding quite earnest.
Chen Zheqiang greeted them with a smile, but hesitated somewhat.
He whispered to Jia Lindao, "Boss, I want to stay within the system, I don't want to go into business..."
"Sigh, you're all alone. What good is being a deputy manager? Going into business is your only way out. Want to talk? If you really don't want to, I can find another way for you, but the price won't be cheap..."
Jia Lin spoke earnestly, adopting the posture of an elder educating a younger generation.
After giving Chen Zhe his instructions, he looked at Er Pi.
"Xiao Wang, why don't you two talk first, and we'll excuse ourselves for a moment?"
"You're too kind. Why don't you let Brother Million rest with you first, and we can talk?"
Erpi naturally understood his meaning and immediately called the two people over to work on the project.
After the three of them left, Su Wu lit a cigarette and looked at Chen Zhe, who seemed a little reserved.
"Mr. Chen, you're currently working within the system, right? Are you planning to leave and start your own business?"
"Sigh, I haven't decided yet. After all, this job was hard to come by."
"You don't look too well. It seems like things aren't going well at work either."
"Yes, the ministry is currently undergoing reforms, promoting the capable and demoting the incompetent, sigh..."
Chen Zhe spoke cryptically, but Su Wu understood his meaning perfectly.
What is a capable person?
For 90% of people, it means there's a capable person behind them.
Clearly, Chen Zhe is not included in this list.
As for how he got involved with Jia Lindao, Su Wu didn't care.
Su Wu, who had a photographic memory, remembered that there was a contact named Xiao Chen from CCTV in Jia Lindao's address book.
And there's a little note at the end: "Work is not going well."
Su Wu vaguely remembered that they had recently been in contact via text message.
Jia Lindao agreed to help Chen Zhe find connections, but it would cost 100,000 yuan.
In 2001, even in Beijing, 100,000 yuan was definitely not a small amount for an ordinary person.
Since Jia Lindao dared to take on this job, he must have some confidence in it.
However, this kind of person always exaggerates their confidence to be 100%, and even if they can't get half of the job done, they still get to keep the money.
It now seems that Jia Lindao is not very confident and plans to do a favor.
The purpose is self-evident: to cast a long line to catch a big fish.
Su Wu was considering his options, while Chen Zhe was secretly observing him.
He realized that the person opposite him was really too young.
He found it hard to believe that someone so young could be a big boss.
Seeing Chen Zhe's hesitation, Su Wu smiled and made a suggestion.
"I think Mr. Chen's ambitions lie elsewhere; he might not even look favorably upon our small company..."
"Please excuse me, Mr. Su, I really don't want to leave right now."
"Then let's change the way we cooperate. Listen to my terms first."
"Oh, I'd like to hear more about it."
Chen Zhe was clearly just giving a perfunctory answer; he had no intention of leaving the embrace of the central government at all.
Su Wu didn't intend to recruit him directly, since he didn't know the other party's abilities.
After straightening himself up, Su Wu slowly spoke.
"Judging from your words, you've been working for a few years, so you must have some connections. Our company needs to place advertisements on various local TV stations, and we need a middleman."
