When Careeraholic Meets Workaholic

Chapter 57 Zhou's Investment

Girl... Or maybe this short person has delicate features, but there is no doubt that he is a man, and his hand has already grabbed Bai Lian's clothes, and the other hand even wanted to touch something, but was caught When Zhou Yao roared, he turned his head and saw the wig Zhou Yao was holding in his hand, and he panicked instantly.

Zhou Yao seized the opportunity, grabbed the opponent's throat with one hand, and pushed down with all his strength, before this person touched Bai Lian, he was locked on the ground.

"ah!"

"what!"

"A man?"

"It's disgusting."

There were shouts one after another for a while, and the girls retreated in a big circle in an instant.

Zhou Yao put his knees on the man's stomach, looked away from his face with makeup, frowned and said, "Call the police!"

When the police came, order had been fully restored, and the fans no longer besieged Bai Lian, but instead spurned the villain who disguised himself as a woman and mixed in among them.

And Zhou Yao had brought Bai Lian back to the room immediately.

Bai Lian drank a glass of water, collected himself, and said with a smile, "At least I caught it."

Zhou Yao stood by the window and looked at the beach. There was no one on the lively beach just now, only the staff were cleaning. He folded his arms and said nothing, with an ugly expression on his face.

very angry.

I can't tell why you're so angry.

Obviously those girls will also make the scene very chaotic, and they will even take advantage of the chaos to restrain themselves, but apart from feeling that this is not good, he does not have any feeling of losing control of his emotions, but when he sees a man disguised as a woman When the man tried to touch Bai Lian, he was so angry that his muscles tensed up, and he even wanted to punch him hard.

God knows how much effort it took him to resist not dropping his fist, but just pinning the man down to the ground with his neck stuck.

It has been a while, but the violent desire born from the depths of the body has never dissipated, and even became more violent after a short period of brewing.

The words on the note appeared in his head, he actually wanted to talk to Bai Lian about doing those nasty things, doing those... His fists were clenched violently, his anger was almost unbearable.

Suddenly, the clenched fist was covered by another hand, which was held gently and strengthened little by little, as if pulling the last silk thread of his reason. He stood at the end of the thread and looked back, so " "咻" bounced back, and sanity returned.

Bai Lian stood beside him and looked at him with worry in his eyes, and said softly, "I'm sorry for hurting you, I'll give you some medicine."

"Injured?" Zhou Yao frowned.

Bai Lian lowered his eyes and glanced at Zhou Yao's hand, which was being held by him.

When Zhou Yao came back to his senses, he realized the pain on the back of his hand.

Applying medicine is a slow and meticulous job, and Bai Lian does it very seriously, kneeling on the sofa with one knee, and stepping on the other leg on the ground, with a deep curvature of the back. A loyal knight.

Zhou Yao raised his hand and rubbed Bai Lian's hair. When Bai Lian looked over in surprise, his phoenix eyes opened very round at the same time. Zhou Yao saw his own reflection in the black eyes.

"You..." After Zhou Yao made his voice, he forgot what he wanted to say. He stared at Bai Lian in a daze, his soul seemed to be captured by those eyes, and he lost the ability to think.

"Huh?" Bai Lian's eyes widened a little more, and he looked over suspiciously.

The depths of the black eyes are so beautiful, like gems, like the light from the universe, Zhou Yao couldn't help but want to touch them, but when he raised his hands to his eyes, he was fixed by those looking eyes.

Being looked at by Bai Lian innocently, Zhou Yao's heart beat a little chaotically, and finally his fingers passed over those eyes, landed on the top of his hair, rubbed it again, and said softly: "You have to pay attention to safety, when you are outside .”

"En." Bai Lian lowered her head and let him touch her head, showing a very obedient and submissive posture, but there was uncertain horror in her lowered eyes.

what did he seeHe can guarantee that the emotion in those eyes is definitely not worry, but a deeper, attracted emotion.

Just... is it possible?

Bai Lian suppressed his heartbeat, nervously raised his head to observe again, the man's hand was withdrawn from the top of his head, and the slightly drawn arc of his mouth was very relaxed and satisfied, he could clearly feel the pleasure and intimacy of the other party at this moment .

The intimacy is simply out of proportion.

This is not what Zhou always does.

It's me... What's the difference?Can I have something to look forward to?

He was flustered.

He was full of anticipation.

He expects Ai Ai.

He opened his mouth and called out softly: "Mr. Zhou..."

"Huh?" The man raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Are you ready? Thank you."

After finishing speaking, the man stood up. He squeezed his fist, and after quickly confirming the impact of the injury, he said, "I'll go down and see how they deal with it. Don't go out. Be careful."

Holding a small cotton swab, Bai Lian knelt on the sofa with one knee and watched Zhou Yao leave until the door was locked.

When Zhou Yao went down, the crowd of spectators had dispersed, because the perverted illegitimate meal had been taken away by the police, and the large army was rushing to the room. When the elevator door opened, Zhou Yao was surrounded by white fans, before he could speak. , the women talked about the ins and outs of the matter in a hurry.

Then a girl said, "Can I go and visit Bai Lian?"

Zhou Yao frowned on purpose, letting out his air-conditioning, the girls gradually fell silent, the elevator doors opened and closed, and there were gradually fewer people around.

When the last two ladies who didn't look young were left, one of them with short hair handed Zhou Yao a business card and said, "Hello Mr. Zhou, I'm Qian Jie, just like you." I'm also an independent producer, and I came here this time just to meet you, may I ask if your next plan is to shoot big players? Can I invest?"

"I'm sorry, I don't need a partner for the time being." Zhou Yao didn't take the business card, and walked out when the elevator door opened.

But the two ladies came out right behind him, and Zhou Yao heard the other party say: "Zhou Yao, you really don't remember me? Is Aunt Yuan okay?"

Zhou Yao turned around in surprise.

……

After returning from Banban Island, Zhou Yao went home first. Both his mother and grandfather had finished watching "Super Calculus" in the eight episodes of Yangba. Seeing him, he couldn't help but praise how good this TV series is.

Some time ago, Zhou Yao was too busy, and he didn't go home until the end of the vacation before the broadcast, so he chatted with his mother and grandfather for a long time, and even promised them to invite Tang Ze to come to his house to cook and have a meal.

After ten o'clock, the door was pushed open, and Zhou Baoquan came back reeking of alcohol. He didn't look like he had drunk much, but he was really tired.Zhou Yao is also engaged in business now, and he is very aware of this feeling of non-stop socializing every day. The complaints he once had towards his father have subconsciously decreased a lot, not to mention that "it is easy to hide a hidden arrow, but it is difficult to guard against it". His father went to drill, and his former "friend" He Yu was in the middle as a guarantee. It was wise and alert to escape, but it seemed to be human nature.

Mother brought hangover soup and handed it to father. Before going upstairs, grandfather asked a few questions about the company. Zhou Yao sat on the single sofa and watched silently.

After drinking the hangover soup in one gulp, his mother went to the kitchen, and there were only father and son left in the living room. Zhou Baoquan leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes for two seconds, then said, "Come to my company tomorrow and bring you team."

Zhou Yao looked at him.

Zhou Baoquan wiped his face, he was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't hide his pride and said: "Your company is doing very well, I decided to formally invest in your company."

Zhou Yao raised his eyebrows, and then said: "In the afternoon, I will take people there in the afternoon."

In the afternoon, I will go to Zhou's Group. Although it is my home, they are two completely different companies on the books. Zhou Yao needs to make a lot of preparations. The first thing is to send a notice in the group that the meeting will be held at [-] o'clock tomorrow morning.

Fortunately, the vacation arrangements were not seamless, and there was a week of work handover. During this period, it should be enough to reach a cooperation with the Zhou Group.

No matter whether Zhou Baoquan ever hit Zhou Yao, looked down on him, or even used the reason of "other people's child" to give him a comparative education, Zhou Yao never thought of breaking up with Zhou Baoquan.

There is no doubt that they are a family, the kind that has broken the bones and tendons, so any misunderstandings and opinions are not important. What is important is not to let the Zhou family make the same mistakes again, and even if possible, the company can The territory is expanding a bit.

Obviously, the film and television industry is a very suitable place for Zhou to invest in multiple fields.

The next morning, Zhou Yao went to the meeting room. The meeting room was filled with the company's executive management, and Jin Yi was the one he relied on the most.

Zhou Yao said that he was going to the Zhou Corporation to discuss cooperation in the afternoon, and did not elaborate on his relationship with the Zhou Corporation, but the people in the management obviously had guesses. After all, when filming "Super Calculation", Zhou Yao Zhou Yao suddenly invested 3000 million yuan. Although there is no voice outside, people in his company always want to discuss it. Zhou Yao and Zhou Baoquan, the helm of the Zhou family, have too many similarities. Even if they are not father and son, they should be related. They are close relatives, so everyone calmly accepted the formal cooperation between the company and the Zhou Group.

In the afternoon, Zhou Yao took four people to Zhou's.

Zhou is very rich.

Zhou Yao's grandfather started as a contractor, led the whole village to make a fortune, and finally became a well-known real estate businessman in Huaguo.Zhou's Group also owns a magnificent office building in City A, but because the real estate is invested and constructed everywhere, only three floors of this [-]-story building are used by Zhou's, and the other floors are rented out. The rent can pay most of the employees working in the head office.

In this kind of rental office building, there are a lot of people coming and going in and out of the elevator, and there is no grand hall, but when you step into the elevator, you will see a wall that is almost densely covered with nameplates of various companies, and the most are some building materials for sale. Companies, construction workers contracting companies, including some property and housekeeping companies, it can be said that these small companies are all mid-stream and downstream companies that rely on the "Zhou Group" to survive. Like the stars, they entrust the "Zhou Group" to the top.

Zhou Yao rarely comes here.

It is very common for sons and fathers to disagree, not to mention that Zhou Yao's career is mainly on the Internet. Give him a computer and he can write a world. The contradictory values ​​​​of father and son make them do not know how to get along with each other.

What's more, this building has only been built for eight years, but Zhou Yao has been a master of online novels for 11 years. It can be regarded as another kind of successful Zhou Yao, and he is not envious of Zhou Baoquan, who has a building in the Fourth Ring Road of City A.

But Zhou Yao was calm, and the others were not.

After all, in an economic and political center like City A, housing prices have already soared to tens of millions, which is a goal that many people can't strive for in their entire lives. For the Zhou family who can own a building, it is like a fairy.

When they came out of the parking lot and were walking towards the elevator, they met some other people and got out of the car. The man walking in the middle had a bag in his hand, with a big belly, and spoke Mandarin with a foreign accent. : "Mr. Zhou is a very powerful person. His manner of talking and doing things is not ordinary. We talked for a long time last night. His connections are quite scary, but Nanwan is still our territory. Strong If he wants to do projects there, he still cannot do without the support of our local people."

"If it weren't for Mr. Wang's dealings, they wouldn't be able to start the project in Nanwan now."

"Mr. Zhou's contacts are in City A of the capital city, and Mr. Wang is the king of our South Bay."

……

This person was also followed by three people, talking loudly and proudly. They walked to the elevator. There are four elevators here, one of which is written as a special elevator, and there is a card reader on the elevator button. , the other three elevators are in operation.

One of the elevators was going down from the first floor to the first floor, and the four people came running quickly and pushed Zhou Yao and the others aside at once. onto Jin Yi's body.

The four people stood in front of Zhou Yao and the others as if they hadn't seen them, and stood at the elevator door.

"Ding" the elevator door opened.

Two people got off the elevator, and a few people "reversed", waiting for the four people to enter, and there was no place.

Obviously Zhou Yao and the others arrived first, but the four of them turned around and showed triumphant smiles. The elevator doors closed, leaving Zhou Yao and the others outside.

"Who is this?" The clerk complained, "I won't even say an apology."

There was another person who wanted to press the elevator, Zhou Yao said, "No need."

Then he turned around, and under everyone's gaze, he walked to the front of the elevator labeled "Special Elevator", took out a card from his handbag and swiped it, stopped at the elevator door on the first floor, and came in response.

The clerk who was still angry just now pursed his lips and smiled, and trotted all the way in with everyone. That's right, the Zhou Group and Mr. Zhou may not necessarily have any relationship.

This elevator is different from other public elevators. The floor is covered with soft carpets, clean and tidy with a faint fragrance of jasmine. The copper walls are so clean that they can be used as mirrors, and melodious music echoes in the ears. Straight to the 28th floor, like a ladder going straight up from the blue clouds, it carried them to the top of the clouds in a blink of an eye.

The elevator door opened, and when you came out, you arrived at the office area of ​​the Zhou Group.

When the lady at the front desk saw the special elevator coming up, she thought it was some company leader who had been waiting at the elevator door. When the door opened, the two men and three women who came out were strangers.

The face of the receptionist was blank.

After being stunned for a few seconds, he hesitated and said, "Excuse me, what's the matter?"

Zhou Yao was really unfamiliar with this place. Although he knew that his father's office was upstairs, he was here for business after all, so he chose to come down from the 28th floor.

He hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand to signal the receptionist to wait a moment, took out his mobile phone and played his father's call, saying, "I'm at the company gate."

The others didn't know who he was calling, and the receptionist naturally didn't know either, but she didn't dare to belittle these people who came up from the [special elevator]. After all, the elevator was prepared for the company's leaders, and their identities were somewhat different after all. Bar.

Finally, the reception lady said, "Will someone come over later? Sit here first, and I'll pour some water for you all."

Zhou Yao shook his head. He would leave here in three to two minutes at the most. There was no need to sit down and rest at all. He just walked a little aside with the people, made way for the entrance and exit of the elevator, and stood by the side.

The reception lady was at a loss, but saw another public elevator going up to the 28th floor. She smiled apologetically and waited at the door of this elevator.

The elevator door opens.

Mr. Wang, carrying a bag and a big belly, reappeared, still talking endlessly: "I have an unusual relationship with Mr. Zhou. When we cooperated last time, Mr. Zhou and I had dinner together. We ate yesterday. I also went to the clubhouse to watch the show, Mr. Zhou invited me, that girl is so beautiful, from the north, tall and big like a model, she can talk with Mr. Zhou..."

Zhou Yao narrowed his eyes, and the expression on his face was a little cold.

Mr. Wang talked all the way, until he saw Zhou Yao and the others, he looked back at the elevator in surprise, and then said to the receptionist: "We have an appointment with Mr. Zhou this afternoon. We are a company in Nanwan. I’ve been here, little sister, don’t you remember?”

Saying that, Mr. Wang raised his hand and touched the reception lady's face.

The reception lady reacted quickly, dodged it, and looked at the man angrily.

Mr. Wang didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with his actions. He grinned, looked away indifferently, and asked, "Whoever picks us up?"

The reception lady showed a professional smile patiently, and said, "I'll help you get in touch right now, Mr. Wang, you go to the lounge next door to take a rest, and I'll send you a glass of water later."

"Ah, no need, no need, anyway, we will go up soon." Mr. Wang waved his hands.

Just as he was talking, the special elevator opened again, and a middle-aged lady in her 40s with her hair pulled out came out of it, walking over with wedge-heeled leather shoes, with a very fierce and serious face.

The reception lady hastily called out: "Secretary Sun."

Mr. Wang also changed into a flattering expression in an instant, and said loudly: "It's really fate, we have a good understanding, we just arrived, Secretary Sun, you came down."

Secretary Sun said with a professional smile on his face, "Hello, Mr. Wang."

She shook her hands a few times, then turned her head and nodded to the receptionist of her own company, and said, "Take Mr. Wang to the lounge to rest for a while, and I'll be back soon."

The receptionist said, "OK."

Mr. Wang said: "There's no need to go to the rest room. I'm ready. We can go up and sign the contract right away."

Secretary Sun showed an apologetic smile: "President Wang, please wait a little longer. President Zhou wants to see other people first."

While speaking, Secretary Sun looked at Zhou Yao, and the originally alienated smile instantly became a little more intimate, even showing a little bit of flattery.

The smile on Mr. Wang's face could no longer be maintained, and he said unhappily: "We have an appointment this afternoon, and we came first, the advanced elevator, but the elevator is a bit slow."

Secretary Sun withdrew her gaze from Zhou Yao's face, and her smile immediately turned into a business-like alienation. She said: "It won't be long before Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhou meet each other. Please take care of Mr. Wang and don't be impatient. Send it up and I will come down to see you soon, we can carry out the pre-procedural matters before signing the contract."

Having said so much, Mr. Wang naturally couldn't hold on any longer. He just waited for Secretary Sun to take Zhou Yao and the others away, looked at his companions in confusion, and asked, "What little Mr. Zhou?"

No one answered him, they were all thinking about who else was in this circle, Mr. Zhou.

"Ah!" But the receptionist who was walking in front suddenly yelled in surprise, and then said, "I see! Mr. Zhou!"

Here, Secretary Sun has taken Zhou Yao and the others into the special elevator. Secretary Sun's face has no sense of distance from outsiders at all, and the apple muscles of his smile are cracked. He said affectionately: "President Zhou has been with me during this time We chatted several times, saying that your filming is super good-looking, and I also found that he watched TV dramas during his working hours, and he praised me about this TV drama, and he praised you, that expression, he was so proud. I have never seen him so happy for a project worth more than [-] million yuan."

Zhou Yao laughed: "I didn't say that when I saw him yesterday."

The two chatted briefly, and they arrived at the [-]th floor.The elevator door opened, and the two walked out side by side, leaving the people behind them looking at each other.

Although it was expected a long time ago, when they saw the financial strength and style of the Zhou Group with their own eyes, they still couldn't imagine that there would be a real version of the big boss who "go home and inherit billions of dollars if you don't work hard" .

Is it uncomfortable to run such a big company?Or is it not good to be complimented by a group of people?Why do you still have to sell the house to film a movie? I can't understand, I can't understand.

No. The layout of the 30th floor is completely different. As soon as the elevator door walks out, it is a very bright office area, but it is different from other companies. The office area here is very spacious, and everyone has a lot of space. It is also neatly placed, and there are many green plants arranged.

The office area of ​​about [-] square meters enters the office. There is only the president's office on this floor, so all the staff working in the public area outside are secretarial staff.

But Secretary Sun did not take them directly into the president's office, but walked through a small half of the office area, and then turned outside the door before entering the president's office. Looking at a large city, the garden style of the plants is obviously designed by a Feng Shui master. In short, it is very comfortable to walk all the way.

Willing to use half of the floor to build sky gardens in this city where every inch of land is expensive, rather than thinking about how to open up more office areas, it is enough to prove that the company's financial resources are extraordinary, and the space worth hundreds of millions is taken Let's play with the hair dryer.

The people brought by Zhou Yao followed along, looking left and right, admiring in their hearts, and their awe of Zhou Yao became deeper and deeper.

Such a huge family property is not inherited, what do you think?

At the end of the garden, there is a hut of about [-] to [-] square meters. The decoration style is a bit like a petty bourgeoisie coffee house. When the door is opened, warm wind blows in. Several people are drinking coffee in the room, including the " King", Zhou Baoquan.

Zhou Yao's eyes met Zhou Baoquan's across the air, and Zhou Yao looked at him: "Dad."

Jin Yi's heart trembled, and then there was a great sense of pride in her heart, as if she was standing on the "big ship", and she was not afraid of any storms!

Their company is backed by the Zhou Group, so it is not so easy to go bankrupt. This is her lifelong career!Nothing to say!You must do your best, and you will not resign even if you die!

The people led by Zhou Baoquan also stood up and called out to Secretary Sun, "Little Mr. Zhou".

Zhou Yao has now opened a studio. He is already Mr. Zhou himself and heir of the Zhou Group. Although he has never worked in a company, his noble status is already in front of him. It is not surprising to call him Mr. Zhou.

Zhou Baoquan also got up, walked to his son with a different attitude than at home, put his arms around his back, then squeezed his wrists, and said: "These are the elites selected from the company. A film and television investment project team, if you need money in the future, just tell them."

tsk tsk!

Look at what this says.

A biological son is different!

There is no "cooperation", no "negotiation", just a sentence, "If you want money, just ask Dad"!

It is almost necessary to separate the enviable wall.

Moreover, these so-called "elites" actually don't know much about film and television. They have only one purpose in appearing here, to make Zhou Yao's money from the Zhou Group justifiable.

However, Zhou Baoquan didn't just spend money blindly. The group company still had business to do. Even if it was only natural to spend money on his son, he had to explain it to the shareholders.

Therefore, there are many detailed rules stipulated in the contract, which is very troublesome to explain in detail, but there is one point in which Zhou Yao must cooperate with the Zhou Group in the name of a film and television company, and can no longer be affiliated with other film and television companies in the name of a studio. under the company name.

Another thing is about the group's annual investment in Zhou Yao Film and Television Company. It will invest in Zhou Yao twice the profit after the group's investment in the previous year.

In other words, when Zhou Yao filmed "Super Computing" last year, the group company invested 3000 million yuan, and finally made a total income of more than 860 million yuan. Then in this year's new contract, the group company will invest in Zhou Yao's film and television company Hundreds of millions of dollars.If you keep making money, the amount of investment will continue to double. It is not impossible for the investment amount to reach one billion in the last year. It depends on Zhou Yao's ability to make money.

Conversely, it may be less.

However, Zhou Baoquan's support for Zhou Yao's career can be seen from this contract. It is specifically stated in the contract that under special circumstances, some additional investment will be made after passing the group meeting.

In other words, once the money is in place, Zhou Yao's net worth will reach [-] million, and he can shoot more film and television dramas at the same time.

During the discussion, Zhou Baoquan asked Zhou Yao about his next plan.

Zhou Yao mentioned the second season of "Supercomputing" and the final season of "Speaking of God" that need to be filmed this year, as well as testing the waters of the "Speaking of God" series of movies.

Speaking of it, it has been a busy year, and Zhou Yao is about to start writing the sixth part of the "Tian Shen Series" - "Pluto".

Zhou Baoquan was very interested in Zhou Yao's plan. The two chatted for a long time while drinking coffee, accompanied by other people, occasionally saying a few words, and more than an hour passed in a blink of an eye.

Since Zhou Yao became an adult, the father and son may not talk as much in a year when they meet. The common career has given them a common topic, which is obviously a good opportunity for their father and son to "break the ice".

Zhou Yao clearly felt the deep paternal love hidden by his father, which he never felt in his previous life.

When Secretary Sun came up, he reminded Mr. Wang that he had been waiting in the reception room downstairs for two hours. Zhou Baoquan stood up reluctantly, and finally walked out of the coffee shop with Zhou Yao in his arms, and said in a low voice, "Mr. home for dinner, your mother misses you very much."

"Okay." Zhou Yao nodded and agreed.

When Zhou Yao and the others left, Mr. Wang and his group could not wait to go up to the [-]th floor, and the two parties met at the elevator door.

Before getting close, Mr. Wang stretched out his hands and walked over quickly. Regardless of Zhou Yao's willingness or not, he held Zhou Yao's hand and shook it vigorously. A flower bloomed on his face, and said affectionately: "Little girl!" Mr. Zhou, let me tell you that this person looks like a good-looking talent. No matter how you look at it, he is not ordinary. It turns out to be Mr. Zhou. In the evening, I will treat guests at the Accord Club. You also come here, and the little sister next to you Come all of us."

Then Mr. Wang looked at the clerk who had been hit by him before, and said, "I'm sorry, I bumped into you just now, and I've been wanting to apologize. Are you okay? Do you need me to drive you to the hospital?"

Miss Clerk blushed in embarrassment.
