She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

Zhou Hanzhi was not asking for our opinions, but he was clearly giving us orders.

And the reason why he made this decision was only because of Lin Xixi's personal pursuit of Xiaoyaoke.

But having said that, in the field of original painters, there are probably not many people who don’t like Qashqiao. His painting style is realistic, unique, and his colors are bright. He is an unparalleled existence in the circle, not to mention that many people , or hand-drawn.

Not to mention putting the painter to the test.

However, capable people usually have weird tempers, so Xiaoyao Ke has never appeared in any interviews or appeared in front of the media since his debut.

The identity is quite mysterious.

"Manager Meng," Zhou Hanzhi said normally, not wanting to listen to my explanation, "If it's something that can be easily done, why should I mention it to you?"

As expected, it was impossible to change his mind.

On the other hand, Lin Xixi on the side said considerately: "Senior, actually what Sister Nanxu said makes sense. It is indeed difficult to hire an original animator of Xiaoyaoke's level. Although I like him very much, I don't want Sister Nanxu to do it." I’m in trouble with Mr. Wu.”

When she said this, her beautiful big eyes flashed, and she had an indescribable sense of innocence.

Upon seeing this, Wu Ling responded: "Manager Lin is still attentive and considerate. Not to mention that no one has seen the true face of this Xiaoyaoke, we can't afford to hire someone of his level."

Wu Ling always considers problems realistically and directly.

A few years ago, one of Xiaoyaoke's original paintings had already sold for six figures. In the past two years, he has cooperated with film and television companies several times and created many famous posters, and his popularity has increased even more.

"It doesn't matter, money is not an issue," Zhou Hanzhi responded simply, his gentle eyes fell on Lin Xixi's face and said, "As long as you have the ability to invite people here."

"Senior..." Lin Xixi lowered her head shyly when she heard this, and said shyly: "If you say that, I don't even know what to say."

"Then just look at the performance of Manager Meng and Mr. Wu," Zhou Hanzhi stood up and said decisively, "I believe you two will not disappoint Zhou, eh?"

After leaving these words, he led Lin Xixi away, leaving Wu Ling and I staring at each other.

We left Rongyu Group dejectedly.

This meal was really thrilling.

Neither Wu Ling nor I expected that Zhou Hanzhi would pose such a big problem to us.

Coincidentally, I heard that another well-known software development company that Stack gave a business card to at the dinner yesterday also had someone make an appointment with Xiaoyaoke not long ago, but their agent directly came and said that Xiaoyaoke's work has been arranged until next year. In early summer, I was prevaricated.

How can we chew on such a hard bone?

"Don't you understand yet?" Wu Ling squeezed the steering wheel and said angrily: "Zhou Hanzhi, an old fox, probably knew our path early in the morning, but he couldn't let us suppress Lin Xixi, so he deliberately gave us a chance. There’s a problem.”

It turned out that he actually cared for her so much.

"And don't forget, last time Tangtang attacked Lin Xixi in person," Wu Ling mentioned the past, sighed, and said, "If Xiaoyaoke really comes, how will she handle herself?"

I didn't think much about this. With Tangtang's bad temper, I was afraid I couldn't swallow it.

Wu Ling smiled bitterly and said, "This Lin Xixi, we really underestimated her."

I looked at Wu Ling doubtfully, and after a brief thought, I said in disbelief: "You mean, Lin Xixi deliberately mentioned Xiaoyaoke to Zhou Hanzhi?"

"if not?"

I'm a little surprised. If Wu Ling's guess is true, then the company may not have peace for a while.

As smart as Zhou Hanzhi, it was impossible for him not to notice Lin Xixi's little thoughts.

But the decision was also made by him.

He was really protective of her.

Let’s just say that we are cooperating with Xiaoyaoke. If we are lucky enough to find him and reach cooperation, it will only be because we have done our duty. If we cannot complete the task, I am afraid that this matter will never end.

"Killing three birds with one stone," Wu Ling sneered and said, "Xu Xu, we are really in big trouble this time."

Not to mention whether Wu Ling's analysis is accurate, one thing is understandable - if we can't find Qiao Yaoke himself, we will be left without food.

After discussing it with Wu Ling, we decided to split up into two groups. She was responsible for negotiating with Tangtang. After all, the little girl had also put a lot of effort into drawing the protagonist's image. I rejected it all at once, I'm afraid she would not be able to accept it for a while.

As for me, I was responsible for checking with Xiaoyaoke's agent to see if I could meet with this legendary original painting boss.

Being able to meet Xiaoyaoke himself is half the battle.

But can a small game company like ours catch the attention of Xiaoyaoke?

I felt uneasy.

One day later, through friends in the industry, I successfully got the contact information of Xiaoyaoke's agent and made an appointment to meet in the afternoon.

He is an eloquent middle-aged man in his thirties named Huo Tianlei.

The meeting place was at the art studio he founded.

He was quite polite himself. After hearing my explanation of my purpose, he did not show any arrogance or rudeness. He just handed me a form and said, "If you don't mind, Manager Meng, you can fill out a cooperation intention form."

This is also the first time I've seen it.

But Xiaoyaoke is a big boss, so it’s normal to do some tricks.

There is just one item in the table that is quite interesting - the original reason for cooperating with me.

Huo Tianlei explained, "Everyone knows Xiaoyaoke's temper, so Manager Meng can just write about it casually."

Of course I know not to write casually.

Xiaoyaoke's coffee table is there, and this form is undoubtedly a difficult question he asked from his partner. If I guessed correctly, Huo Tianlei will definitely hand the form to Xiaoyaoke after I leave.

It's a written test.

I thought for a moment and wrote down my true purpose - a matter of life and death.

Huo Tianlei was slightly surprised when he saw it, and said with a smile: "Manager Meng is actually more humorous than expected."

"Mr. Huo, I'm not kidding." I pinched my wristband and said sincerely: "Our project must be Xiaoyaoke."

I have to give Zhou Hanzhi an explanation.

After the meeting, I went downstairs worried, and a moment later my phone rang.

It's Xiaoya's phone number.

"Sister Nanxu, please come back quickly," Xiaoya's panicked tone came from the receiver, "Tangtang heard from somewhere that Manager Lin wanted to find a new original animator to replace her, so she must be found. Settle accounts.”

My heart beat like thunder and I asked, "Where are they now?"

"Manager Lin said he was going to have afternoon tea, and Tangtang came to find her." Xiaoya told the truth, "But I didn't tell her the location of Manager Lin. Sister Nan Xu, Mr. Wu is out. Only you can persuade Tangtang." ”

I was immediately overwhelmed and contacted Tangtang immediately after hanging up the phone, but her phone was always busy.

I stepped on the accelerator and rushed to Lin Xixi's favorite coffee shop.

As I expected, both Lin Xixi and Tangtang were there.

The atmosphere between the two was obviously tense.

Just when I was about to step forward to reconcile, Tangtang rudely raised the mug in front of her and poured it over Lin Xixi.

"I called you Manager Lin to give you face, who are you pretending to be here?"

Tangtang's face was red and she looked very angry.

I quickly stepped forward and asked the waiter to bring the dinner paper while admonishing: "Tangtang, apologize to Manager Lin quickly."

Tangtang didn't expect me to come either. She curled her fingers and said stubbornly: "She was the one who provoked me first. I was right."

I looked at Lin Xixi in surprise, and saw her lowered eyebrows and aggrieved look. Coupled with the coffee stain on her chest, she didn't look like the initiator.

"Tangtang, I'm also thinking about the project," Lin Xixi whispered, her voice extremely aggrieved, "Sister Nanxu also agrees to this matter. Sister Nanxu, don't you think so?"

I'm a little speechless.

But Tangtang didn't listen to the explanation. She opened her eyes wide and pointed at Lin Xixi and said, "Hypocritical, don't think I don't know. It's you, Lin Xixi, who is behind this!"

As soon as she finished speaking, two lines of tears were seen pouring out of Lin Xixi's eyes. The little girl choked and said: "Sister Nanxu, did you hear everything?"

I was about to respond when a scolding voice suddenly interrupted: "What are you doing?"

I turned around in panic and saw Zhou Hanzhi and Zeng Zhi standing at the door.

But, why would he suddenly show up at this time?
