Chapter 298 Chen Tang refuses to write a promotional article
"From the beginning to the end, what I pursued was a lover who was in tune with my soul, a partner who shared the same values as me and could tolerate each other. In my opinion, fate is more exciting than the order of precedence."
The commemorative book was stunned, and a trace of shyness and tenderness flashed across his usually cold eyes.
She pulled Chen Tang back a few steps, stood under the eaves and looked into the distance. The mountains were lush and green, just like her happy and refreshed mood.
“Chen Tang, you really look a bit like Lu Yanzhou.”
Chen Tang stood in the shade and said with a smile: "It's not like, it's that we in the new era have the right to pursue happiness, and the promise made by parents should be based on human rights. Ignore age, ignore rumors, and look for the fate that belongs only to you."
Seeing that she had finally let go of her depression, she patted her shoulder and said, "Okay, now that the conflict between you has been resolved, I should go back."
The memorial book nodded, looked at her leaving back, and raised the corners of his lips slightly.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yanzhou came out, as if he had known she was there, and there was no surprise on his face.
"Let's go home."
Memorial Book: "Well, go home."
Chen Tang rode his bicycle to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a few popsicles to take home.
She happened to meet Director Li, who stopped her and said, "Comrade Shen, wait a minute. A factory asked me to give you an invitation letter from the Hai City Foreign Friendship Chamber of Commerce."
Chen Tang was a little surprised: "Which factory?"
Director Li handed her an invitation letter. "It's the Sanfu Milk Powder Factory, a new factory that opened not long ago. I heard that their milk powder tastes very good and is nutritious. By the way, their boss used to be the director of the Yanshan Wood Factory. He is also famous in our Hai City. His name is Lin Haifeng. I wonder if you have heard of him?"
Of course Chen Tang had heard of it, but not because he had heard that the other party had once opened a wood factory, but because in later generations this milk powder factory was exposed to have excessive heavy metals in its milk powder, causing many children to suffer from low immunity, weakened intelligence, and even death in serious cases.
She didn't know what kind of person Li Haifeng was, but she didn't dare to accept the promotion from this company.
In particular, almost all milk powder factories have had problems after more than 20 years, and the more famous they are, the more problems they have.
When it comes to food, she will never take over and promote it easily.
"Director Li, please go back to the Sanfu Milk Powder Factory. I don't plan to accept any promotional materials for the time being."
Director Li advised her: "Actually, it's okay to go and see the Foreign Friendship Chamber of Commerce. To be honest, I'm not even qualified to join."
Chen Tang refused: "No, please return the invitation letter, Director Li."
At the Friendship Chamber of Commerce, you can not only cooperate with foreign friends, but also cooperate with local factories. The Sanfu Milk Powder Factory invited Shen Tang to go there, actually hoping that she could witness the factory cooperation and write a story promotion article for this purpose.
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Director Li had no choice but to return the invitation letter.
In the office of Sanfu Milk Powder Factory, the middle-aged man in charge looked unhappy when he heard that the invitation letter was returned.
"You didn't tell the other party that we are willing to pay her 500 yuan to write the promotional article?"
He had inquired around, and found out that the famous author Zhou Tang only charged 500 yuan for promoting the farm last time.
Their factory was established not long ago, and five hundred yuan is already quite sincere.
Could it be that the other party thinks it’s too little?
This is five hundred yuan, which can almost buy a job in the factory!
Don't be too greedy!
"We told him, but he refused to pick me up and was unwilling to come. He said he had children at home and was busy. There was nothing we could do."
Director Li also revealed a little bit that the other party is currently in the military area, so there is nothing they can do even if they use force.
It’s not like their factory hasn’t thought about hiring other people to promote the product, but Chen Tang has been too popular recently.
Her novels were sold out almost as soon as they came out.
There are others who are equally famous but not as popular as her, and they require more money and land, so Zhou Tang is their factory's first choice as an author.
The man kicked the stool angrily: "Add another hundred yuan, plus a bicycle ticket, and contact them again. This is our limit. If the other party is still not satisfied, then forget it."
She is not the only famous author. If she is so greedy, she should be careful about getting into trouble!
Director Li was also in a difficult situation. He was not very familiar with this friend. They had only met once when they were on a business trip.
The other party was also smart. He changed the budget given to him by his superiors into two parts: "Director Li, if this can be successful, this hundred yuan will be your introduction fee. Money is hard to make these days, and food is not enough. I heard that Director Li's child got sick a while ago, and the family is a little tight on money. If you have this hundred yuan, it should be able to ease the situation."
You know what, Director Li was indeed moved.
But the problem was, from the look on Chen Tang's face that day, it didn't seem like the problem was the lack of money.
"Then I'll try. If they really don't agree, then I can't do anything about it."
His family was financially tight, but not so tight that they couldn't afford to eat.
His family paid the hundred yuan with land, so he would not offend Chen Tang, who was his benefactor, for the sake of the hundred yuan.
He plans to cooperate with Shen Tang for a long time.
It was two days later that Director Li came to visit.
The weather has been too hot recently, so Chen Tang doesn't like to go out, so he just sits under the grape pavilion, fanning himself with a fan and reading a book.
The grapes at home finally grew up, but they were still very sour and He Zhi didn't like them at all.
However, Chen Tang was afraid of wasting food, so he picked the sour grapes and made grape honey water, which was sour and sweet and very appetizing to drink. Xiao He Zhi was not stingy either, and called his good friends to sit under the pavilion and drink cool water.
He leaned against his mother's legs, took a sip of grape juice, and then pinched the peach cake next to him. His little brother was fanning him and shaking his head cutely, which made Chen Tang very amused.
Suddenly a military vehicle passed by the door. It was not going very fast, but it disappeared in a flash.
Chen Tang just looked up and didn't take it to heart.
Unexpectedly, around noon, a man driving a military vehicle came to visit with two bags of gifts.
The man had a somewhat dark skin, but his facial features were delicate, and he had a sunny and handsome smile. When he saw her, his eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.
“Student Shen, I just glanced at you casually in the car and thought I was seeing things, but it turns out it was really you.”
Chen Tang couldn't remember the other person for a moment: "Who are you?"
"Hongjing Junior High School, Su Nancheng, don't you remember me?"
Chen Tang searched his memory for a long time and finally found such a person.
In fact, the other party's name is memorable, unlike the names of these people, which seem to be picked casually.
There is another one. Su Nancheng used to be very thin and short. He was almost as tall as her when he was in junior high school and was often bullied by other students.
I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, this person has grown so tall.
Although he is not 1.9 meters tall, he is definitely over 1.8 meters tall. Wearing a military uniform, he looks surprisingly sunny and handsome.
No wonder she couldn't recognize it.
"Su Nancheng, is it you?" Chen Tang said in surprise.
Su Nancheng smiled shyly: "I haven't seen you for many years. You have changed a lot."
Chen Tang: "You've changed a lot, too. Did you just transfer here?"
Su Nancheng nodded: "My family is not well off. I joined the army after graduating from junior high school. In the past few years, I have become a battalion commander. It just so happens that I have an aunt here, so I came to take a look."
His gaze paused on Xiao Hezhi who was sitting next to her, his eyes complicated: "You have a child?"
