what is your vision

"You said—Mr. Zhou disagrees with my design?" Lu Yunchu didn't expect that Hongchuan's big boss would pay attention to details such as park decoration, let alone that his idea would be directly rejected.

It was a sudden inspiration after he saw the overall layout of Hongchuan the day before. It not only contained certain corporate culture connotations, but also could definitely achieve the effect of being integrated with the surrounding environment; he had communicated with Manager Sun and was also affirmed by the other party. .

"Yes," Manager Sun said in embarrassment, "I was originally responsible for this matter, but Mr. Zhou suddenly asked yesterday, so I showed him your design drawings, but he was very dissatisfied, and told him It must be redone."

"Which aspect are you dissatisfied with?"

"Mr. Zhou said that your direction is completely wrong. He doesn't want this type of sculpture."

"This type?" Lu Yunchu didn't think the things he made were so strange. After all, commercial sculpture has to consider the acceptance of the public, and it is impossible to do whatever he wants like pure art in the past. "Then do you know what type he wants?"

"This...Mr. Zhou didn't say it clearly. If you want to listen to my advice—" Manager Sun said hesitantly, "Our Mr. Zhou is very down-to-earth, so I guess his preference is more... simple."

"Simple?" Lu Yunchu always felt that there was something in his words.What kind of request is this?

Lu Yunchu felt resentful about taking money to do things, but there was nothing he could do about it.He figured out how to do it more plainly, and submitted three manuscripts within a week, but they were all rejected without exception.

Lu Yunchu thought that if he didn't communicate with Mr. Zhou in person, he would never understand what the other party's request was, so he asked Manager Sun to help him set up a line to meet Hongchuan's boss Zhou Yanchuan.

Things were not going well, his car was scraped into the repair shop, the next day after the incident, Manager Sun called and told him that Zhou Yanchuan could meet with him on Thursday afternoon.

"Can't it be next week?" Lu Yunchu asked.His car will definitely not be picked up this week, and Zhou Yanchuan refused to meet outside, and asked Lu Yunchu to go directly to the park to find him, and go to Hongchuan, and it will take a lot of time to go back and forth.

"Mr. Zhou said it was only on this day," Manager Sun said shyly, "He is also very busy and doesn't want to make time for this matter. He said that if you want to come, it will be Thursday afternoon."

After traveling abroad for several months, Lu Yunchu has met all kinds of people, and his temper has also restrained a lot, at least he can't express his dissatisfaction on the surface.He knew that for a person like Zhou Yanchuan, it would be a shame not to refuse directly.

On Thursday afternoon, he called a car and came to Hongchuan for the second time.

Since the appointment was made in advance, the front desk of the office building did not ask more questions, but only told him to register.Manager Sun happened to get off the elevator: "Is Mr. Lu here?"

"Well," Lu Yunchu signed his name, "Hello."

"Let me take you there, it may not be easy to find for the first time."

"Thank you."

Manager Sun led him to the door, knocked on the door, and said to the people inside: "Mr. Zhou, Mr. Lu is here." Then he made a gesture of "please" to him, and left.

Lu Yunchu gently pushed open the half-covered door, stared at the man sitting behind the big board table for a few seconds, subconsciously raised his head, and looked at the position sign on the door again, because he thought that Manager Sun had led the wrong way.

He had only seen this man last week, the man on the side of the road who thought he was a Didi driver.But he never thought that this would be Hong Chuan's boss.

"You, you are not that..."

"Oh——" Zhou Yanchuan remembered when he saw his face, "You were the one who sent me to the hotel that day!" He stood up from his seat, a smile appeared on his serious face, "Sit down ...this is really a fate."

There is a long sofa for guests to rest on the side of the office wall, and a tea set is placed on the coffee table in front of the sofa table.After Zhou Yanchuan asked Lu Yunchu to sit down, under the surprised eyes of the other party, he took out the tea and boiled the water again: "Is Tieguanyin okay?"

"You don't have to be so polite," Lu Yunchu said quickly, he didn't come here today to drink Kung Fu tea, "Mr. Zhou, I really don't need to trouble you."

"Didn't I bother you too? What's the matter?" Zhou Yanchuan's voice was loud and enthusiastic, "I wanted to give you money that day, but you don't want it. Since I'm here, it should be right to buy you some tea, right?"

"Thank you." The other party was surprisingly easy-going, so Lu Yunchu decided to cut to the chase, "I came today to talk to you about the sculptures in the park."

Zhou Yanchuan scalded a few small teacups with freshly boiled hot water. Hearing his words, he kept making tea and only waved his empty left hand slightly: "I know, Manager Sun told you Come on, what you did is no good."

Hearing such a straightforward negative evaluation, Lu Yunchu's good impression of this person collapsed instantly.

"One yard is one yard," Zhou Yanchuan seemed to have mastered his mental activities, "I am very grateful that you helped me last time, and I can thank you in other ways, but I was the one who bought the sculpture. It's up to you."

Lu Yunchu understood this truth, suppressed the urge to question, and said politely: "So, I want to know where my problem lies?"

"What you did..." Zhou Yanchuan poured out the first brewed tea, and refilled the two teacups, "I don't even know what you did."

Lu Yunchu was also confused by his words, it was the first time he heard such feedback from a client.

Seeing that he didn't understand, Zhou Yanchuan continued to explain: "What do you think you are doing with a bunch of steel pipes? The middle is still hollow... Hongchuan's budget is definitely enough, you don't have to save money for me."

"Of course I didn't do it to save money." Lu Yunchu never thought that the work he created with his heart was "a pile of steel pipes". A more transparent and open spatial relationship..."

"Wait first." Zhou Yanchuan frowned, "Mr. Lu, you don't need to think so much."

"So what kind of work do you want to do?"

"What kind of look do you want, I can't quite figure it out..." Zhou Yanchuan frowned in distress, but immediately stretched it out, "Hey, why don't you just be a horse?"

"horse?"

"Yes, I like horses very much." Zhou Yanchuan talked about his favorite things, excited like a child, "You can make them all look like horses, a running horse! As for the material, just use that... What is the old ox-drawn cart at the gate of the People’s Park made of—”

"Cast copper?"

"Yes, that kind of feeling is good."

Lu Yunchu glanced out the window, looking at Zhou Yanchuan in disbelief.

"Mr. Zhou," he said as tactfully as possible, "Are you sure this park is suitable for such...retro decorations?"

"Too old-fashioned?" Zhou Yanchuan thought for a while, "Then use white stones...the kind of stone carvings, anyway, don't use messy things, and make it look like it!"

It's not a matter of material at all.Copper materials can also make works that are suitable for the environment. I am afraid that if you design it yourself, this master will not be able to bear it.Lu Yunchu somewhat understood what Manager Sun meant by his so-called hobby "simple". To put it bluntly, he was old-fashioned.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Zhou Yanchuan asked, "Is there any question?"

"I'm a little curious," Lu Yunchu carefully hid his contempt, "You also designed the buildings in this park according to your own preferences?"

Hongchuan Park has not been built for a long time. Although the overall style is not particularly eye-catching, at least it looks natural and unified, and it is also very modern.

"That's not it." Zhou Yanchuan took a sip of his tea, "Building...it has functions, mainly practicality, and there are also building materials, safety factors and so on...it's too complicated, and I don't understand it, so I can't decide. Sculpture is different, it's just a decoration, just like...a child playing with mud, so you don't have to think about it so much."

Lu Yunchu opened his eyes wide: "Playing with mud?"

"I'm just making an analogy, not to underestimate your profession."

"Mr. Zhou," Lu Yunchu still wanted to struggle, "Sculpture is also a kind of space art, it should be integrated with the surrounding environment, and it can even become a part of the building itself, and it is important to the corporate culture—"

"Hey, Mr. Lu," Zhou Yanchuan felt dizzy, "Thank you for your attention to my company, but don't tell me these big truths. To be honest, I am most afraid of teachers. You remind me of middle school. The head teacher, and I... just want to make a few things I want to see."

The corner of Lu Yunchu's mouth twitched: "So you asked me to make some shapes you like like making mud?"

"Yes, that's what it means!" Zhou Yanchuan immediately sensed the irony in his words after speaking.

The last time they were in the car, the two had already had a face-to-face meeting.At that time, Zhou Yanchuan didn't think much about it, he just thought that this person had a special appearance.A man with an exquisite appearance and long hair in a ponytail is easy to impress anyone.

But now, he looked at the person in front of him more carefully.

Lu Yunchu's eye sockets are deep, narrow and well-defined eyes, you can see the faint lying silkworms on the edge of the lower eyelashes when you get close.Eyes that are too beautiful for a man, always look straight at him when he speaks, as if he is the superior.

Zhou Yanchuan didn't like this sense of oppression, nor did he like the sarcasm in his words just now.

"Mr. Lu, I'm also a little curious," Zhou Yanchuan retaliated, "Are you doing this for hobby, or for making money?"

Lu Yunchu guessed his intentions, and said, "Of course it's to make money."

"I think so too," Zhou Yanchuan said firmly, as if holding on to the opponent, "otherwise you might have overturned my desk."

"Mr. Zhou," Lu Yunchu almost risked everything, the worst would be to lose a business deal, "It's not all because of money, but because of basic self-cultivation that I didn't lift your table."

He knew that a local tyrant like Zhou Yanchuan couldn't take himself seriously, and of course, he didn't care about him either.

Thanks to Lu Changming's sarcastic attack on him for 20 years, he learned to hide his edge.The toughness in his bones has not been dissipated, but he will never show it in front of unrelated people.

Zhou Yanchuan really didn't take him seriously, and almost laughed out loud.

This young man with the appearance of a young master almost wrote the words "You are an evil pen" on his face. Even so, he suppressed his resentment and talked politely.It is also difficult for him.

Among the friends Zhou Yanchuan knows are art practitioners, and he knows that such people are somewhat arrogant.On the premise that it has nothing to do with his own interests, he doesn't mind respecting or even maintaining this pride.But Hongchuan Park was originally his own territory, and he paid for it, so he would never get used to the other party's stink.

So he continued to "prompt" Lu Yunchu: "Mr. Lu, if you have spare money, you can do art in your spare time, whatever you want, but if you want to make money from others with your skills, then there is no room for you to challenge customers."

Zhou Yanchuan hit him where it hurts, he really needs to make money.However, what was strange to Lu Yunchu was that the other party didn't seem to intend to terminate the contract with him.

"You still want me to do it?"

"Then do you want to do it?" Zhou Yanchuan laughed again.

This guy did it purely on purpose.Lu Yunchu took a deep breath, and kicked back the right to choose like a football: "If Mr. Zhou is willing, of course I can."

"Okay," Zhou Yanchuan said bluntly, "I'm too lazy to find someone else, just in case I meet someone who is more difficult to serve than you."

Who is difficult to serve?

Lu Yunchu sweared furiously in his heart, Zhou Yanchuan ignored his dark face, and reminded: "Mr. Lu should go back early if he has another cup of tea, it's going to rain soon."

"Thank you Mr. Zhou for your concern," Lu Yunchu said without any fluctuations in his tone, then got up immediately, "Goodbye."

It was still the sun when it came, who was Zhou Yanchuan fooling?Lu Yunchu thought that the other party was looking for an excuse to chase away customers, and he was not interested in staying for a long time, so he left directly and took the elevator downstairs.When he came to the door of the building again, he was dumbfounded.

It was really raining outside, and it wasn't showing any signs of letting up.

Not only did Lu Yunchu fail to drive his own car today, he didn't even bring an umbrella, so he could only pray that the car would be called sooner.

Unfortunately, things backfired.In the rush hour, there were so many people hailing taxis nearby, he waited on the spot for a long time, and the display on his phone was still "queuing".

What bad luck.Lu Yunchu murmured in his heart, how could Zhou Yanchuan crash a car and meet his kindhearted self to give him a ride?

Thinking of the misunderstanding that day, he felt that his brain was trapped by the door, so he regarded the rich man as a down-and-out little boss.

However, after a while, a passing black Mercedes-Benz stopped beside him, and the passenger window was lowered, revealing the face he had just seen.

"Mr. Lu, get in the car."
