King Raiders Game
Chapter 029 [Strange Invitation]
Cheng Chi was startled, the call came unexpectedly.
He glanced at Zhong Zilin, who was leaning against the wall with folded arms, waiting to see what other tricks he could make.
Cheng Chi slowly calmed down. He thought for a while, then bowed his head and said, "I will come again." Then, he turned and walked out of the hall.
Everyone was a little surprised. They didn't expect that this guy would change his face in a second after answering the phone.Zhong Zilin was also quite surprised, but as long as Cheng Chi didn't continue to entangle, it would be good for everyone if he obediently left. If he really ended up being escorted out by the security guards and thrown away, they would lose each other's face.
A farce ended inexplicably like this, Zhong Zilin asked others to share the lilies according to the usual practice, and went upstairs by himself.He is still very busy and has no time to waste too much time on Cheng Chi.
Chu Qing had been hiding in the dark and peeping at the farce. Seeing everyone scattered, she ran out secretly, trying to get close to Cheng Chi.
Cheng Chi left the office building and walked along the street for a while. A car was parked on the side of the road. He got into the car with his phone and rolled up the windows.
The car was quiet, and the air-conditioning was humming.Cheng Chi's palm was already sweating while holding the phone, he was a little nervous and very surprised.Of course he knew who the Mr. Zhong the secretary was referring to was. Zhong Zilin had a half-brother Zhong Xiao, which was known to many people in the circle.
This wasn't the result of Ase's deliberate publicity and hype, Wen Tingyu even deliberately downplayed this relationship.But helplessly, the relationship between Zhong Zilin and Zhong Xiao has always been very bad, and both of them have a violent temper that refuses to admit defeat. During the period when Zhong Zilin had just transformed into a singer, they would have a fight every three days, and the frequency of the entertainment tabloids Still very high.
But now that Zhong Xiao's career is booming, Zhong Zilin is also popular in the circle and has a bright future. The social status of the two has improved, and their work is becoming more and more busy. They no longer talk endlessly like before.Cheng Chi once thought about poaching from Zhong Xiao. He had nothing to do with Zhong Zilin, and he really liked him, so he considered starting with his family relationship.But Zhong Xiao's position is one level higher than his. He tried to make friends with this shareholder, but he was ignored at all.
In the past, the phone calls could only reach Zhong Xiao's work assistant at most, and it was simply delusional to want to talk to him directly.Unexpectedly, Zhong Xiao would take the initiative to contact him today, and it was out of personal matters.
Cheng Chi took a few deep breaths nervously, calmed down for a while, and called back: "...I would like to talk to Mr. Zhong, the specific time and place, let him make the decision."
The secretary said over there: "It's like this. Mr. Zhong is very busy. He said that if you have time, he will talk to you on the phone first. He can do it now. What do you think?"
Of course, Mr. Cheng had no objection and gave out his phone number. After a while, a strange call came in.
"Mr. Cheng, I have admired your name for a long time."
Cheng Chi's back tightened, and he had already recognized Zhong Xiao's voice.They once met in public at a business banquet, and Zhong Xiao's voice was as sharp and cold as his appearance seemed.
He couldn't help sitting up straight, and subconsciously said in a submissive tone: "Mr. Zhong, you... hello, I should be the one who said you've been famous for a long time, I..."
Zhong Xiao directly interrupted him: "There's no need for politeness, time is limited, so I'll just ask straight to the point. Are you interesting to Zilin recently? He's not easy to deal with, is he?"
Cheng Chi didn't expect the other party to be so direct, so he panicked for a moment: "You know? I'm sorry, I..."
Zhong Xiao laughed: "Don't be so nervous, I'm not here to ask the teacher for a crime. Zilin's relationship between men and women is very complicated, so I'm just here to care about it."
When he said that, Cheng Chi became more and more nervous.He also knew that Zhong Zilin and Zhong Xiao had a bad relationship, besides, he still has a cooperative relationship with Zhong Xiao's company. In such a complicated situation, Zhong Xiao suddenly called to "concern" about the situation between him and Zhong Zilin, which really made him feel uncomfortable. People are so disturbed.
Cheng Chi thought for a while and said, "Mr. Zhong, I am indeed very interested in Zilin, so I won't hide it. If this relationship will affect our cooperation, then I will feel very sorry."
Zhong Xiao smiled: "Oh? You mean, if I disagree with this matter, you would rather not cooperate with me and choose Zilin? Your courage is commendable."
Cheng Chi was a bit desperate: "You can find another work partner, but there is only one Zilin!"
There was silence for a while.
Cheng Chi's face turned pale with fright, Zhong Xiao was indeed very difficult to deal with, he could feel a cold air permeating along the mobile phone signal through the phone.
However, he doesn't regret telling the truth.Zhong Xiao is so secretive, he is not sure what he is thinking in his heart, maybe he will see through his words of loyalty to fool him, and he will only be more unlucky.
Fortunately, after a while of silence over there, Zhong Xiao laughed: "You are quite affectionate, but Zilin doesn't know how to do this, I understand him. By the way, Mr. Cheng, there are rumors about the discord between our brothers , you should have heard of it too? Do you know why we have conflicts?"
Cheng Chi was taken aback: "No, I don't know..."
Zhong Xiao smiled: "Actually, it's not a big problem. His private life is too messy. I can't get used to it. That's all. Because both of us have relatively hot tempers, so we quarreled over such a trivial matter. He is also at this age, and I would be very happy if it can be settled. As for whether it is a man or a woman, I don’t care too much. You know things in the entertainment industry. If you are lucky enough to meet a good man It doesn't matter if it's a girl."
Cheng Chi couldn't believe his ears: "What do you mean?..."
Zhong Xiao was also very straightforward: "Yes, I think you are a good choice."
Cheng Chi's heart palpitated for a while, his whole body trembled with excitement, and he accidentally hit his head hard on the roof of the car.
Zhong Xiao asked over there: "What's the sound?"
Cheng Chi blushed with excitement, and apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, I'm so happy."
Zhong Xiao smiled: "I'm telling the truth. You are a businessman and my partner. If you are lucky enough to get married, the relationship between our two families will be closer in the future. Moreover, I heard that your social relationship It's also very simple, isn't it? Zilin loves to play too much, it's good for him if you tie him down and let him calm down."
Cheng Chi took a deep breath, and heard Zhong Xiao say again: "...But, I also know that he is difficult to deal with. He has no intention of making a deal with anyone. If you want to take him as your own, I'm afraid you have to find a way." .”
Cheng Chi quickly asked, "What should I do?"
Zhong Xiao said: "It's probably useless just to please him. But he attaches great importance to the people around him, those young assistants, the singing and dancing team, work partners, managers... He cares about them all. If you have the heart, Just use them."
Cheng Chi was still breathing deeply. After being excited for a while, he gradually calmed down after listening to Zhong Xiao's words.
To please the people around Zhong Zilin?He hadn't thought about this, and his understanding of the entertainment industry was limited, so he thought that a big name like Zhong Zilin would not take his followers too seriously.Moreover, Cheng Chi also had doubts in his heart. He and Zhong Xiao were neither related nor related, did he speak the truth?
Although he is in love with brains, he is not completely stupid. He does not know the truth about the conflict between the brothers.If they really harbored hatred for each other, Zhong Xiao might be pretending to be a good person and let him be cannon fodder.
Even if he cooperates with Zhong Xiao in work, he is still at a disadvantage.Zhong Xiao is the major shareholder, and he is just a small boss of an ordinary company that needs financing. He needs Zhong Xiao's help very much, but on the other hand, Zhong Xiao doesn't need him very much. Even if he loses his business, Zhong will not There is too much to lose.
Thinking of this, Cheng Chi's heart gradually cooled down.
He was thinking about whether to believe Zhong Xiao's words or not.If there is really something tricky in it, how can he properly dig out the truth?
Seeing that Cheng Chi didn't say a word, Zhong Xiao smiled on the phone: "You don't believe me, do you? It's no wonder, this is the first time we've talked, and it's really not right for me, a stranger, to point fingers at you."
He was so frank, Cheng Chi panicked again: "No, that's not what I meant..."
At this point, he was really caught between a rock and a hard place.If you believe Zhong Xiao's words, you may be cheating; but if you don't believe him, if he is telling the truth, wouldn't you suffer a great loss?If he fails to pursue Zhong Zilin in the right way, and disappoints Zhong Xiao to make him unhappy, the loss will be huge.
Cheng Chi hesitated, not knowing how to answer Zhong Xiao.Zhong Xiao was quite enthusiastic, and said: "I can understand your scruples, but I am very optimistic about you, and you are also very optimistic about Zilin. No matter how you look at it, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, isn't it? How about this, we Make an appointment, and I will invite you to my house for dinner, okay? I will also let Zilin come with me. Of course, I will not let the two of you meet. I have a way to tell his truth. After you hear it, tell me again Decide what to do."
Cheng Chi stayed there, are you coming to eat now?
The suggestion made by Zhong Xiao was simply too tempting. His posture was so low that it was outrageous for him to push back and forth again and again.Moreover, Cheng Chi was really distressed that Zhong Zilin never told him the truth.His skill in laughing and cursing is top-notch, and he always makes Cheng Chi fascinated by teasing him, but those are all superficial jokes, Cheng Chi never knows what Zhong Zilin is thinking.
At this point, it seems that there is no room for rejection at all.Cheng Chi hesitated again and again, but finally accepted Zhong Xiao's invitation to have dinner.
"Then, since Mr. Zhong said so, I'd rather be obedient than respectful. Thank you for your love. I will definitely cherish this opportunity,"
He glanced at Zhong Zilin, who was leaning against the wall with folded arms, waiting to see what other tricks he could make.
Cheng Chi slowly calmed down. He thought for a while, then bowed his head and said, "I will come again." Then, he turned and walked out of the hall.
