"Let me introduce."

Hua Lihui arrived in the tea city yesterday morning and joined the job in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, Zang Bai happened to be at the sales department to give the owner a refund, and he hadn't had a face-to-face meeting yet.Lin Bochuan originally wanted to find a time to officially introduce the two of them, but he didn't expect to bump into each other at this time.

"Zang Bai is also the vice president of Guangchuan."

"Hua Lihui, the actuary I hired from Manulife Group." When introducing Hua Lihui, Lin Bochuan couldn't help leaning closer to Zang Bai's ear, and said, "Xiaohao's brother."

Zang Bai nodded, and stretched out his hand first: "It's great that you can come and help us, it's just hard work for you."

Hua Lihui shook his hand: "You're welcome, you're not an outsider."

Zang Bai still wanted to say something, but the other party had already shifted his attention to the notebook brought over again, and buried his head to report his calculation results to Lin Bochuan.

The two immersed themselves in discussing work, Zang Bai listened and looked at Hua Lihui.

He had known this person for a long time, but to be honest, this person was very different from him.He is not like anyone in the Hua family, and he is far different from Hua Xiaohao, not at all like a brother.

Zang Bai looked at his twirled hair, his hair was a bit greasy, a few pieces of dandruff fell on his shoulders, his face was also a little tired, his lips turned white, as if he had worked overtime and stayed up all night.

He seems to be a sloppy man who doesn't pay attention to details, but he is very neat in his life.

Despite this, he still has a very handsome and soft face, with fair skin and clear eyebrows. If he hadn't known that he was a Beta, Zang Bai would have suspected that he was an Omega.

Lin Bochuan sat in front of that computer, Hua Lihui bowed his waist, and the two got very close, Zang Bai suspected that Lin Bochuan could smell something bad about the other person.But Lin Bochuan didn't say anything, and listened attentively.

Even if Zang Bai is a layman, when listening to Hua Lihui's report, he can feel his very clear thinking and fast brain.As if in a data brainstorm, he could still hear the faint excitement in his words.

Zang Bai, an employee of the company, has also gotten in touch with him. He has been communicating frequently with the financial department in his recent work. As the vice president, he can still tell a little bit about what kind of level a person is and how much he can afford.Just from this little detail, he felt that Hua Lihui could help Lin Bochuan a lot.

It's just that since he was willing to give up his position as an executive and his bright future to help, why didn't he come, and Lin Bochuan didn't come to him immediately?

Thinking of the past again, Zang Bai always feels that the relationship between the two is not just friends, but also not as close as Lin Bochuan and Hua Xiaohao regard each other as their own brothers.

He was a little curious about this person.

--

The person who invited Zang Bai to participate in the exhibition was called Liu Dao, and everyone in the circle called him "Master Dao". The real person was a short, round, white and fat man.

He sent someone to the airport to pick up Zang Bai and Yu Youxing. Instead of going directly to the exhibition center that day, he sent them to the hotel where they were staying.When the two teams met in the hotel lobby, both parties were a little surprised.

Zang Bai was surprised that his "regular customer" was a round young man, not more than 30 years old.If you do a lot of business, you will become a mature man. This Master Dao has vicious eyes, sharp language, and is a man of high artistic accomplishment.Zang Bai's impression of him was more of a serious middle-aged critic.

When Liu Dao saw Zang Bai, his jaw dropped in shock: "You...you are... Zang Bai?"

Zang Bai smiled politely: "My name is on your invitation letter."

It was the other party's staff who first collected his information and then sent him an invitation letter. Naturally, they should have known who he was.

Liu Dao scratched the top of his head in embarrassment: "I thought it was just the same name."

Zang Bai smiled a little: "I didn't expect Lord Dao to also pay attention to entertainment news."

"In my line of work, you have to pay attention to everything." After a brief surprise, he has recovered his usual sophistication, "Call me Xiaodao."

"I'll take you to check in first. I'm tired after traveling all the way."

"Didn't the exhibition start today? Isn't it over now?" He glanced at the staff behind him who was holding the paintings for him.

"Don't worry, the place is reserved for you." Master Dao led them straight to the elevator.

The hotel is a double suite, and they disassembled the paintings in the living room of the suite.Master Dao rubbed his hands, and couldn't wait to open the window, put the painting in a place with sufficient light, and moved back and forth, trying to find the most suitable viewing distance.

"Teacher Zang, if you don't mind, let me take a look first."

Zang Bai thought his appearance was funny, so he stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation.

Master Dao watched the structure and color from a distance, and then leaned closer to the canvas to appreciate the brushstrokes. He still didn’t forget to chat with Zang Bai: “Mr. Zang, do you know why I invited you so hard this time?”

"No matter what, thank Master Dao for his love."

"I love your work very much, but if I really want to carry it, I can carry it very limitedly, otherwise I would have invited you out of the mountain." Liu Dao glanced at Zang Bai, "There is another noble person who invited you , an artist like you shouldn't be buried."

What he said made Zang Bai lose his head.

"Who are you referring to as noble?"

Liu Dao looked at several paintings carefully, especially Zang Bai's latest painting "City", and ordered the staff to take the painting down and re-frame it so that it can be put into the exhibition tomorrow.

After giving instructions to the others, he smiled mysteriously: "The nobleman hasn't arrived yet, I will arrange for you to meet tomorrow, and leave a suspense for today."

Zang Bai nodded and stopped asking questions.

After Liu Dao left, only Zang Bai and Yu Youxing were left.

"Xiao Yu, do you want to visit the attractions in the city?"

Yu Youxing was chatting with his mobile phone all the way, and now he looked up from the mobile phone: "Eh?...Go, let's go."

The next elevator couldn't stop, so Zang Bai asked, "Are you chatting with Xiaohao?"

"No..." Probably aware that Zang Bai was a little dissatisfied with him holding the phone all the way, he stuffed the phone in his pocket and explained, "The task assigned to me by President Lin is to let me enter and check out as the owner group. I was an undercover agent and encouraged them to quickly withdraw. Mr. Lin transferred the returned properties to my name, but it was exposed, and the owner group knew that I was an undercover agent, and they were chasing me and scolding me."

Zang Bai knew what was going on when he turned a corner, Lin Bochuan asked Xiao Yu to take the blame for him, and said with a smile, "Lin Bochuan is an unscrupulous capitalist."

"I have the same feeling." The two talked and laughed all the way out of the hotel.

Yu Youxing looked like he was out on vacation, buying special products along the way.

"Brother Bai, I didn't expect you to be such a famous painter."

"I didn't expect it either."

Zang Bai also looked at the dazzling array of small commodities in the scenic spots.Yu Youxing bought a lot of useful and useless things for Hua Xiaohao, and he was also thinking about whether to bring a gift to Lin Bochuan.But these little gadgets, the young master should not look down on them.

"Everyone calls you Teacher Zang."

"I'm still called Mr. Zang in the company."

"That's different. I feel that the title 'Teacher Zang' is more suitable for you."

Early the next morning, Liu Dao sent a car to pick them up and went straight to the exhibition hall.

Zang Bai thought it was an open exhibition.Only after I went there did I know that the exhibition hall is not open to the public, and the invitation system is adopted, and only guests who have received the invitation card are eligible to visit.And this is not an exhibition for the general public, but for semi-professional interest.Zang Bai saw many familiar faces at a glance.

He has never been in this circle before, but as a professional, he still has some understanding of the artists, collectors, and critics in the circle.

His paintings are placed in the center of the exhibition hall, in a very conspicuous position.The other paintings on display in the exhibition hall are also from the hands of some famous painters.However, the works of those famous painters have become his supporting roles, which makes him somewhat puzzled.

Zang Bai walked in, and immediately cast his eyes on him, with some exploration and curiosity.People whispered, he had an intuition that someone had recognized him, and he also felt that others, like him, were very puzzled that his paintings were placed in the best booth.

Two steps further inside, someone has already stepped forward to talk to him.The other party opened his mouth with a string of compliments, saying that from his paintings, he seemed to see the demeanor of painter Qiao when he was young.Passionate, enthusiastic, proud, the brushwork is natural and casual, as if it was done overnight, and the shot is a work of nature.

As soon as someone came up, more people gathered around and chatted.

Zang Bai was a little tired of dealing with these true and false compliments, just at that moment Liu Dao came over, dealt with him a few words, and took him away.

After leaving the exhibition hall, Liu Dao seemed to see his discomfort, and said with relief: "Mr. Zang, you don't need to care about what those people say. You know the truth about peers, they are jealous of you."

Zang Bai was a little amused: "I have nothing to be jealous of."

"That's a lot to say. Drawing talent is one..."

"Painting talent?"

"You don't know your painting talent?" Liu Dao was startled. He had seen too many people who thought they were talented but thought they were talented. Curious, what do you think about painting?"

Zang Bai thought for a while: "Express.

"Human language is quite scarce, so there are things like music and painting. I paint just because I want to paint."

"Who said that what you want to express is not a talent." Liu Dao replied ambiguously.

"Where are you taking me?"

"Sir, did you forget what I said yesterday?" Although Liu Daoren was fat, he moved very fast. For so many years of painting, I admire you from the bottom of my heart, which is absolutely sincere.

"I have always wanted to invite you to meet, and I also wanted to make a long-term consideration for you. I didn't want the jade to be dusty. You always refused me at the beginning, but this time you finally gave me some face. But the face will not let you give it in vain. This is your chance, and it's my chance."

What Liu Dao said made him completely confused, so he saw the pair of chubby hands pushing open a door and said to him, "Teacher Zang, please."

First, there was a very faint smell of incense wafting out of the room. Zang Bai stepped in in a daze, and saw at a glance the famous painter Qiao Liang sitting on the main seat, beside him was the famous art critic Chen Sang, and others. Zang Bai didn't know people, there were seven or eight people in a room, and the half-human-height painting - "City" was placed in the middle.

Liu Dao recommended them to get acquainted, and the scene was full.The two bosses took the initiative to get up and shook hands with him, Zang Bai only said hello teacher, his mind was completely dazed.

The other party was very friendly and pulled him to sit down, poured him tea, and said that he had no other intentions, but it was rare to see a painting he liked, and he wanted to chat with the author.

Zang Bai was a little flattered in his heart, but he controlled his expression very well and didn't show it at all. He just talked about his creative motivation, creative ideas, etc. according to the other party's words.

While chatting with these senior people, he recalled Liu Dao's words just now, and seemed to realize something.
