My 26-year-old Female Tenant

  Driving that Alto, after breaking through the shackles of the night, I finally came to the bank of the moat. It was still the familiar section of the river, but I was alone.

   It’s okay, I’m used to the loneliness here, and I’m not alone, at least there’s smoke, those bare trees, and the cold wind blowing by.

  He took out the cigarette case from his pocket, smoked a cigarette and put it in his mouth, touched his pocket repeatedly, only to realize: I forgot the lighter on the bar table.

  I'm a little annoyed, but it's not worth the trouble to drive from the suburbs into the city to buy a lighter just to light a cigarette.

  But without the company of cigarettes, I was poisoned by loneliness. At this time, I thought of Jian Wei. If she was here now, she would definitely use that blue lighter to light a cigarette for me.

   But this is if after all, she is probably not in Suzhou at this moment, otherwise Yan Yan invites you to dinner at noon today, why is there no her?

  So I forcibly extinguished the desire for a cigarette, lay on the withered lawn, looked at the sky, my eyes were full of twinkling stars, but my heart was blank.

At this moment, the moat is really quiet, so quiet that I can hear my own heartbeat and the sound of the wind blowing the dead leaves, and I finally can't bear the loneliness without smoke, so I started to sing, and sang about the all-encompassing world. only myself...

   "Zhaoyang, is that you?"

  The voice was very soft, I thought it was an illusion, but she was already standing beside me, and it wasn't Jian Wei who came.

   "Why are you still in Suzhou? Why are you here again?" I asked Jian Wei two questions in a row because it was incredible.

   "I've been in Suzhou all the time, because the advertising company is already being established... Recently, the pressure is a bit high, so I come to sit for a while after work every day."

  I looked at her, but I saw a bit of desolation in her body like an illusion. After all, how lonely a woman is sitting alone by this deserted moat every night in the dead of night! Lonelier than my loneliness!

  I was silent for a long time and said to her: "Why bother?"

   Jian Wei smiled and replied: "Are you pitying me? ... I don't feel sorry for myself, because I often imagine this place as a beautiful ink painting."

   "But you are the most fallen leaf in this painting!...As long as you want, you can live a good life, why let an advertising company become your burden?"

  Jian Wei looked at me with a questioning expression and said: "You didn't say that last time, you said that I will definitely succeed and successfully run a top advertising company!"

   "That has a premise, the premise is that you can relax a little bit, not like now."

   "What's the matter now, I live a full life every day, and coming here is just a way to relax, just like some people go to bars for entertainment!"

  Seeing her domineering appearance, I didn't want to argue with her anymore, so I shook the cigarette in my hand and asked her, "Are you on fire? Let me borrow it."

  Jian Wei didn't expect me to die so easily, she took out the lighter from her handbag after a while, and then helped me light the cigarette in the cold wind.

  I took a deep puff of the cigarette, then spit it out again, and then asked Jian Wei: "Aren't you going back to Shanghai for the New Year?"

   "Shanghai is so close to Suzhou, you can go back and forth anytime."

  I was silent for a long time before I said: "I mean: what is your parents' attitude towards what you are doing now?"

   "Then you can just say it straight, why do you ask around the corner?"

   "Reveal my connotation, cultivate your intelligence..."

  Jian Wei laughed when she saw me with a "puchi", as if in my memory, since she came back, she had never laughed like this.

   "You are still as outspoken as before, making people dumbfounded!"

   "We shouldn't talk about the past between us, although I'm still the same me."

   "I know, because I'm not that me anymore..." Jian Wei said that the smile on her face was gone, and she looked at the rippling river with a little bewilderment.

   "You haven't told me what your parents think of your advertising company."

   Jian Wei looked back at me, frowned and said: "Don't ask me this question again, I remember I told you that no matter who objects, I will regard this matter as a dream to realize."

   "Jian Wei, don't you think you are wayward?"

   "Hehe, is that right... But have you ever thought about it, if I was not self-willed, why did I fall in love with you and follow you in the first place, otherwise I just fell in love with so-and-so, and there would not be so much pain!"

  Jian Wei’s words made me blame myself and feel depressed. At this time, she has already denied everything we have done. She regrets it, regrets her waywardness at the beginning, and regrets the pain she endured after that waywardness.

"Do you regret being with me back then?...Yes, I never deny that I am not good enough for you, everything is my fault!" I said in a low voice, but it was not sarcasm Jian Wei, but I blame myself from the bottom of my heart. If I had, I would have been a sensible person at the beginning, and I would not start this love with her that finally tore each other apart.

  Jian Wei looked at me and said, "Zhaoyang, I don't regret it, because I'm still self-willed, and you're not wrong, it's me..."

  Jian Wei and I looked at each other, remembering that just now we clearly talked about the past, why did we still talk so much now, and what does it mean to us? It will only make each other indulge in pain and depression in the past!

  But she didn't want Jian Wei to change the subject before me and said, "Let's not talk about this, let's talk about you, how is the bar doing recently?"

   "It's much better than before."

  Jian Wei nodded, and said: "This is expected, because your marketing methods accurately capture the psychological needs of target consumers... However, the warm marketing you mentioned earlier has not yet been reflected."

   "Do you have any ideas?"

"A little suggestion, er... those customers who spend in bars, I recently followed their Weibo, many of them could not go back for various reasons to express their regrets on Weibo, do you think this is a warm gesture What about marketing opportunities?"

  I looked at Jian Wei and immediately asked, "You mean: invite them to the bar to spend New Year's Eve, so that they can experience the New Year's atmosphere and family warmth even in a foreign land?"

Jian Wei nodded and said: "Yes, that's what it means. You must know that people are often the most emotional during festivals. At this time, the effect of warm marketing is the best. We can prepare for different customers according to the characteristics of their hometowns. This kind of warm marketing will give them a strong sense of belonging to the bar. Later, they can take advantage of the opportunity to switch to a membership-based operation, and then transition to a club-style bar. Once the transition is successful, it means that the bar has successfully transformed. Brand momentum has been generated, and further development will eventually form a brand.”

I applaud Jian Wei. This is a very precise and complete idea. She is worthy of being born in an advertising family. Her insight ability makes me, who has been doing planning work for a long time, feel inferior. At this moment, I have a hunch that maybe this Once I can really completely solve the management problem of the bar, fulfill my promise to Le Yao, regain my freedom, and choose my own life anew.

   I just don’t know how Mi Cai, who was still on the plane at this time, made a choice? Maybe she really needs some time to figure out how she feels about me, and all I have to do is give myself a little patience and wait...
