Chapter 31: Jinjiang Dufa should hide him...
Jiang Chen is a man with ideas, which makes him very different from his original self.
The original world was more monotonous, with a bit of a one-track mindset, without thinking about the attendant impacts and changes.
But Jiang Chen is different.
When Lu Chiyuan asked him to switch to a civilian position, he did not refuse, because he was confident that he could handle the changes that would come with the switch.
At first, Lu Mingxuan was afraid that he would not be able to adapt, so he still taught him for two days, and Xu Chen also told him not to feel pressured. Later, seeing that he could do it independently, Lu Mingxuan stopped asking questions and did not see him make mistakes.
Jiang Chen has a strong learning ability. He will ask if he doesn't understand something, and he will work hard if he can't overcome something. He has a clear plan for his work and is positive. He doesn't give up just because it's someone else's life.
On the contrary he was cautious.
He knew that the plot would not interfere with Lu Chiyuan directly, but would hint at it indirectly, give Lu Chiyuan hints, and guide Lu Chiyuan to discover.
When the plot he controls is beyond his original ability, he will start to hide his abilities so that he can withdraw.
This was the first time he took the initiative to jump in and propose to do something. He no longer stayed out of the situation, but wanted to stand with Lu Chiyuan.
Lu Chiyuan told him to go ahead and do it, and he would cover him. If he needed it, he could also provide him with a ready-made team so that he could get started as soon as possible.
Jiang Chen was slightly surprised: "Are you agreeing?"
He just said it casually, there is no complete plan yet, and how the project will proceed is still empty talk.
Lu Chiyuan approached him, reminded him to pay attention to the elevator under his feet, and said: "The company already has this kind of business. If you are determined, you can exchange experiences with Xu Chen. His family focuses on the entertainment industry and can give you a lot of help."
Lu Chiyuan paused, thinking of the system on Jiang Chen, and gave him a general direction: "Expand what you are good at, just like you dug Ling Qi out of the crowd, trust your own vision and judgment."
Jiang Chen thought about it and realized that he did have the advantage of being a prophet. He knew who could be used and who could not be used. He also knew what topics would be popular and what scripts would make money.
He is one step ahead of any investor.
Jiang Chen twirled his drooping fingers. What Lu Chiyuan said moved him. He thought about it for a moment and didn't say anything too final: "Then I'll ask Xu Chen later."
The entertainment industry is a complicated place, Jiang Chen dare not be arrogant, the advantage of being a forerunner is only one aspect, not all.
Sometimes things can only be accomplished when the right time, right place and right people are in place.
When Jiang Chen and Lu Chiyuan returned to the hotel, it was getting dark. The sunset glow in the sky dissipated, and the half-gray and half-lily-colored clouds merged into the sky and were gradually replaced by dusk.
Jiang Chen didn't want to move, so he had a bite with Lu Chiyuan in the hotel, and then went upstairs to rest.
Lu Chiyuan had some documents to deal with, so he went straight into his study as soon as he came back and started working on his computer.
In contrast, Jiang Chen was much more relaxed. He took a bath, and after coming out of the bathroom, he sat on the sofa and played with his phone. Occasionally, a message popped up, and he clicked it and glanced at it casually, only to find that it was a group message, which had nothing to do with him, and then closed it silently.
When exiting the group message, Jiang Chen switched accounts. He swiped his finger to find Xu Chen's avatar, clicked on it and sent him a message.
[Are you there? ]
Xu Chen was surfing the Internet intensively. Within two seconds of Jiang Chen sending the message, he received a reply.
Xu Chen: [It's rare that you actually sent me a message. Tell me, is it because President Lu is so cold and ignoring people that you can't stand him?]
Jiang Chen: “…”
Not really. Isn’t Lu Chiyuan pretty good?
[No, we just came back from shopping, and he is working upstairs now.]
Xu Chen: [Maomao is confusedjpg. Lu Chiyuan accompanies you shopping?]
Xu Chen: [He also knows how to go shopping? Amazingjpg.]
Xu Chen: [What did you buy?]
Xu Chen asked three question marks in a row, and was just about to throw an exclamation in Jiang Chen's face.
Jiang Chen didn't understand Xu Chen's surprise. Isn't this normal? When he brought it up, Lu Chiyuan didn't hesitate for even a second.
It was just a very unsuccessful shopping experience. He didn't buy what he wanted and came back empty-handed. It was as if he and Lu Chiyuan had just walked through the mall together.
Awkward.
Jiang Chen wanted to skip this question, but when his eyes fell on Xu Chen's portrait, he paused slightly.
Xu Chen’s profile picture is unique, with a white hand grabbing a quilt, and the silver bracelet on the wrist just stuck on the wrist, which is slightly erotic.
Jiang Chen paused at the bracelet, and said inexplicably: [I wanted to buy a small gift, but I couldn't find a suitable one. Do you have any good recommendations? Cat help jpg.]
Xu Chen replied immediately: [How small do you want the gift to be? Give me a range.]
Jiang Chen reduced his request to one more thing: [Similar to brooches and tie clips.]
This time Xu Chen did not reply immediately. Instead, after a long while, a 1 appeared next to his avatar.
Jiang Chen clicked on it and saw a picture sent by Xu Chen. In the picture was a silver brooch placed on black satin. The overall design was a double-layer snowflake, with two different shapes overlapping, one large and one small. The outer layer was decorated with pearls and diamonds, and the center was a whole gem.
Xu Chen said: [What a coincidence, I just happened to see this thing, its central layer can rotate, see if you like it.]
The snowflakes lay quietly, the black satin made the cold quality of the metal more obvious, and there was a sense of silent loneliness.
The first time Jiang Chen saw this thing, he thought of Lu Chiyuan. Despite its seemingly cold appearance, it would melt if it were slightly closer to a heat source.
[Like, want, where is the address?]
The picture posted by Xu Chen had no price tag and no introduction. It should be a screenshot, with only the product retained.
Xu Chen first sent Jiang Chen a smirking expression, followed by a voice message.
"The name of this brooch is Winter Sonata. It will be auctioned at a charity party in City A tomorrow night. Aren't you and Lu Chiyuan there? Let him take you there."
There was an unconcealable smile in Xu Chen's voice, which sounded a bit sinister.
Winter Sonata, the name sounds very ambiguous.
He didn't ask Jiang Chen who he wanted to choose a gift for. He first recommended this and asked Jiang Chen to take Lu Chiyuan with him, just to watch the show.
Because no matter who Jiang Chen gives it to, as long as it is not to Lu Chiyuan, he will smile.
Jiang Chen liked this design, but didn't have much reaction to its name. Instead, he was worried about another problem: [There is no invitation letter.]
Normally, invitations would be sent to specific customers in advance for such charity dinners. The auction would be held tomorrow night, so it was a little late for Jiang Chen to just remember to send the invitations.
Xu Chen looked at Jiang Chen's message and couldn't help but curled his lips.
He asked Jiang Chen to bring Lu Chiyuan along because Lu Chiyuan's face was the most expensive invitation card. Others needed to verify their identities, but he only used face recognition.
Considering that Jiang Chen might not like this approach, Xu Chen thought for a moment and said, "It's not a big deal. I'll have someone send it to you."
After Xu Chen sent a message to Jiang Chen, he took out his mobile phone and made a call, asking the person on the other end of the phone to help deliver an invitation letter to the hotel.
The Xu family also participated in this charity dinner. Originally, Xu Chen was supposed to come, but when he heard that an unpleasant guy was going to interfere, he lost interest and did not accept the invitation.
The organizer was very quick. Less than an hour after receiving Xu Chen's call, they delivered the invitation letter to the hotel housekeeper, who then passed it to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen opened the invitation letter and found the brooch Xu Chen mentioned, with a text introduction.
Jiang Chen quickly glanced through it. The gist of the text was that the designer of the brooch designed this item in order to commemorate his muse, with the theme of the first snow when they met.
The name of the brooch is Winter Sonata, but it has nothing to do with love. It’s just about two outstanding people being attracted to each other.
Perhaps there was a moment when they were attracted to each other and had some ambiguity, but they tacitly chose to remain silent.
Because love is not an impulsive desire, but a long-lasting flow.
Snowflakes are cold, which represents rationality.
Jiang Chen sent a message to Xu Chen, telling him that he had received the invitation letter and mentioned something about the entertainment industry.
Xu Chen probably went out to play and didn't reply to him in time this time.
Jiang Chen scrolled through his phone, took a picture of the invitation cover and sent it to Lu Chiyuan, saying: [Brother Lu, please accompany me. Poor little catjpg.]
Lu Chiyuan didn't reply either. Jiang Chen guessed that he might be too busy and didn't have time to check his phone.
The charity gala was tomorrow, and Jiang Chen was not in a hurry. He lay on the sofa for a long time, and only sat up when he felt his eyes were dry. He glanced at his phone inadvertently and saw that it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening.
He lay on the sofa for nearly four hours. It turned out that the mobile phone was the biggest killer of time. Although Jiang Chen had favored it for so long, in the end he had nothing left. He couldn't even remember what he had been looking at on his phone the last moment.
Jiang Chen swiped the screen, but Lu Chiyuan still hadn't replied, and there was no movement from Xu Chen either.
Jiang Chen opened his own network suspiciously. Both mobile data and WiFi were turned on. There was no problem with the network. Had these two people collectively forgotten about him?
Jiang Chen was wondering whether he should remind her again, but when the virtual keyboard popped up on his phone, he didn't know what to say.
Forget it, let’s go to bed. It’s already late. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.
Jiang Chen turned off the lights on the first floor and went into the bedroom. Soon, it was pitch black downstairs.
Lu Chiyuan noticed the change in light on the first floor and took two steps towards the stairs to make sure Jiang Chen had gone to bed.
On the other end of the phone, Xu Chen's voice was filled with fatigue. He yawned and surrendered, "President Lu, do you have any instructions? If not, I'll go to sleep first."
Lu Chiyuan said: "No more, you can take a rest."
Xu Chen said bye and hung up the phone very quickly.
Lu Chiyuan turned around and walked back to the study. The computer on the desk was still on, and on it was a plan for the entertainment industry.
He asked Jiang Chen to go for it, but was afraid that Jiang Chen couldn't find a breakthrough point, so he made a rough plan temporarily. He first talked with Xu Chen on the phone about the current situation in the circle. He wanted to understand it clearly first so that he could help Jiang Chen when he encountered trouble.
Lu Chiyuan opened his phone and saw the message Jiang Chen sent him.
Xu Chen mentioned the invitation letter on the phone, and Jiang Chen took a fancy to the brooch - Winter Sonata.
If he could stay with Jiang Chen until winter, would his determination to leave fade?
Lu Chiyuan's eyes were gloomy. After replying to Jiang Chen, he looked up to the window.
Under the night sky, thousands of lights are shining, but none of them belongs to Jiang Chen. The forgotten soul is wandering, looking for its own destination.
It was a dreamless night. When Jiang Chen woke up, he saw Lu Chiyuan's reply. It was just a short word "OK", but it made the corners of Jiang Chen's mouth rise.
He wrapped himself in the quilt and rolled around, then realized that Xu Chen had also replied to his message.
[Come back to discuss more.]
Xu Chen's words were concise and to the point. Jiang Chen turned over and sat up with a serious expression, scratching his hair, his thoughts lingering on Xu Chen's reply for a long time.
It is time to make a detailed plan.
Jiang Chen was confident and full of energy. He took out his portable computer, sat cross-legged on the bed, and prepared to come up with a plan.
His goal was clear, which was to cut off Gu Tingsen's financial resources.
But how to cut it off, how to cut it off, these questions, when broken down into details, involve many complicated things, so he has to proceed in several steps instead of reaching the end directly from the beginning.
Jiang Chen seized his fleeting inspiration and focused so hard that he accidentally missed the meal.
After he finished writing these things, he stretched comfortably and glanced at the computer time inadvertently. It was already past twelve o'clock. He widened his eyes in disbelief. Before he could recover from the shock of having written for so long, he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Jiang Chen didn't think much about it and looked up at the door.
Lu Chiyuan opened the door and walked in. Seeing his condition, he paused. He walked to the bedside, glanced at Jiang Chen's computer uncertainly, and said, "Playing games?"
Jiang Chen said: "No, I'm writing a plan."
He raised his head and looked at Lu Chiyuan, then raised his upper body, his eyes sparkling, with a smile on his lips: "Brother Lu, can you help me take a look?"
Lu Chiyuan took the computer and was a little surprised by Jiang Chen's enthusiasm, but soon he couldn't help frowning: "Wash up first, I'll take you to eat."
No matter how serious you are, you can't skip meals.
Lu Chiyuan was afraid that he would have a stomachache.
"Okay."
Jiang Chen slid off the bed, stepped on the floor barefoot, and slipped out like a gust of wind.
Lu Chiyuan pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly, his eyes fell on the computer in his hand. He sat down on the sofa in the room, and while waiting for Jiang Chen to wash up, he quickly browsed through what Jiang Chen wrote.
Jiang Chen couldn't spend that much time writing just a planning proposal.
At the end of the plan, he listed many works that have not yet started filming, and wrote down in detail the advantages and disadvantages of each, followed by some names.
He made a detailed plan for himself, which was more thorough than what Lu Chiyuan had prepared for him.
The more Lu Chiyuan read, the more surprised he became. Through this plan, he seemed to have caught a glimpse of Jiang Chen's past.
A high-spirited and energetic young man, after his life was in chaos, did not get knocked down, but stood up bravely.
He has a strong heart that exudes vitality while also being compassionate and gentle.
"Brother Lu, where are we going to eat? If we're just at the hotel, I won't change my clothes."
After washing up, Jiang Chen poked his head out of the door, like a cat suddenly appearing, interrupting Lu Chiyuan's wandering thoughts.
Lu Chiyuan curled his fingers on the computer. Under his dark eyebrows, his blue eyes gradually darkened. He said without being able to tell his emotions: "Let's go out to eat."
"All right."
Jiang Chen walked in from outside, opened the closet and chose the clothes he wanted to wear. He crossed his arms and pinched the hem of his short-sleeved shirt. Just as he was about to take it off, he remembered that Lu Chiyuan was still in the room.
He turned his head and saw Lu Chiyuan holding his computer, looking at his plan, his attention was not here.
Jiang Chen was conflicted but too embarrassed to ask anyone to leave.
He actually didn't mind if there was someone in the room, but if that person was Lu Chiyuan, he would feel uncomfortable.
Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, but resisted the urge to chase him away and began to change his clothes.
They are all men. Lu Chiyuan also has what he has. They have been held and slept together before. What is there to be afraid of?
Lu Chiyuan's attention was not on the computer, he only used it as a cover when Jiang Chen looked over. His eyes followed Jiang Chen and fell on his smooth back.
Jiang Chen's body is flexible but not slender, covered with a perfect layer of muscle. When his arms are stretched, the muscle lines on his back are smooth and graceful.
He turned his back to Lu Chiyuan, focusing on getting dressed, and took off his clothes completely. His slightly loose shirt hung down to cover his hips, and his two long, straight legs were exposed to the air, white and pink.
Lu Chiyuan's Adam's apple moved, and he realized that his gaze was too direct, and turned his head slightly in embarrassment.
The plan on the computer seemed to have turned into rows of ants, twisting around randomly. He couldn't read a single word. Feeling a little annoyed, he simply saved the document and closed the computer.
On the other side, Jiang Chen had already packed up, and tucked part of his loose shirt into his pants. The drooping folds showed his waist. He took a look at the matching metal chain, but didn't like it, so he put it back into the closet.
"I'm fine." Jiang Chen turned and looked at Lu Chiyuan. His collarbone was exposed by his slightly open neckline, and he looked youthful. "Let's go."
Lu Chiyuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly felt that it was not a bad idea to eat in the hotel.
The beautiful and special things should be hidden.
