I have always treated people warmly

"Are you there yet."

Tadano went out of the customs gate, connected to the Bluetooth headset, and soon a magnetic voice came from the opposite side.

The man didn't seem to want to chat with her for too long, and only asked a few questions about work.

It just so happened that Tadano also had the same idea, quickly summed up the recent situation, ended with "I see, Mr. Atobe", and hung up the phone hastily.

"Senior, I'm here!"

Halfway through the headphones, Tadano raised his head upon hearing the sound.

In the center of the field of vision, Jiang Qi, who came to pick up the plane, had curly hair on his head, and was waving at himself with a grin.

"Senior, long time no see. The last time we met was when I first joined the club!" Jiang Qi ran forward chirping, reaching out to pick up the trolley case.

"Long time no see, Ezaki."

There was clean light makeup on the small oval face, and the short chestnut hair was slightly raised outwards. With a smile in the corner of his eyes, Tadano waved to the other party, indicating that he didn't need to help.

Stepping on high heels, she went straight to the Yamato express counter, and asked while handling luggage delivery, "I ate breakfast on the plane, how about you?"

"I've eaten it too!"

"Okay, then let's go directly to the Sendai Gymnasium." Tadano never liked to be procrastinating, so he went straight to the point in a few sentences.

"Oh, that's fine!" Jiang Qi had heard a little about her behavior, and was not too surprised, and said, "But the car is parked a little far away, senior, please wait a moment, I will drive over right away!"

"Okay, you go first."

Sendai City is not big, and the airport is in Natori City next door.They came to Sendai this time for the cooperation and communication of investment projects.

In recent years, the copyright of sports events has increased.

With the rise of overseas streaming media, it is expected to bring huge economic effects in the future from the broadcasting of sports events to the advertising on the field.

As the saying goes, fat water does not flow into outsiders' fields.

The Japan Volleyball Association, as one of the organizers of this Vleague 18/19 season, wants to take this opportunity to announce a plan to build a live broadcast platform dedicated to its own events.

The establishment of the platform in the early stage requires a lot of capital. Venture capital is a typical profit-seeking industry, so naturally it will not let go of this delicious cake.

In front of the gymnasium, the silver-gray Audi stopped slowly.When Tadano arrived at the meeting room, there were still 10 minutes left before leaving.

Most of the reporters and other investors had already taken the seat, and the remaining three or five middle-aged men gathered at one side of the venue. They seemed a little surprised to see her here, and then quietly discussed why Jingxiang Capital sent a young woman to negotiate.

The voice of the conversation was not too loud, just the volume that could reach Tadano's ears.

Jiang Qi stood up, couldn't help but wanted to go forward to argue, but was stopped by Tadano, and warned: "Concentrate on work and listen to gossip."

"...Okay." Ezaki sat down helplessly, so he continued to ramble about his schedule for the past few days, and at the same time promised that he would never sneak to ask his idol Kitu Kotaro for an autograph.

Tadano replied helplessly: "Just go when the work is done, where do I have so many rules?"

"Hey, thank you in advance, senior." Ezaki scratched his head embarrassedly, and said again,

"Ah, by the way, I almost forgot. There are a few temporary revisions to the materials for the press conference later, and they were just sent to senior's mailbox before going to the airport."

"Really, let me confirm." Tadano turned on his laptop, quickly switched to the mailbox interface, clicked on the latest information received at 5 a.m., and asked, "Is there a big change?"

"Oh, not much." Jiang Qi opened the notepad and prepared to take notes, "It's just that the person in charge of the volleyball association has changed, and it has been replaced by..."

"hiss--"

There was a harsh feedback from the microphone, and the conversation stopped abruptly.

One of the people who was talking about Tadano just now happened to be standing next to the stereo, and his eardrums were almost perforated by the shock: "Damn! Who the hell is in charge of the sound effects!"

"Oh, I'm so sorry~"

Right in front of the meeting room, I saw the "instigator" who made the sound, walking up to the podium step by step, took off the microphone and said with a smile: "The meeting is about to start, please keep quiet~"

Familiar with the tail tone, but the voice is deeper than the impression.

Tadano raised his head, his smile froze on his face, and his fingers just slid to the page of the project personnel list. On the information in black and white, it was written impressively:

Japan Volleyball Association, Sports Popularization Division, Kuro Tetsuro.

......

At ten o'clock in the morning, the press conference officially opened.

In the large conference room on the second floor, Heiwei, as the main person in charge of platform promotion, was talking on stage.

The concise and easy-to-understand words, as well as the humorous speech style, changed the stereotyped dull meeting atmosphere.

He was wearing a light gray suit, with a tall and slender figure.The messy chicken nest head in memory is now scratched into slanted bangs with pomade, revealing a clean and refreshing forehead.

How long have they not seen each other.

Sitting under the stage, Tadano suddenly thought, it seems to be five years.Five years is not too long, but it is enough to make people take off their school uniforms and put on suits.

Of course, it is also enough to make each other go from being familiar to strangers.

During the QA session, some reporters raised their hands and stood up to ask questions about the future development goals of the platform.

Heiwei took the microphone, and his voice was naturally bewitching, "My goal has never changed, and it is to make the platform number one in Japan."

The female reporter lowered her head after hearing this, her face was a little hot: "Thank you... Thank you for your answer. Mr. Heiwei is so sure. May I ask if the progress is going very smoothly so far?"

"Well, that's a good question, but whether it's going well or not is too subjective for me."

The female reporter snorted, "What does this mean?"

Heiwei nodded and smiled, and explained: "Because I was once taught that everything should be based on facts. So just taking this opportunity, I also want everyone to take a look at the daily activity data during the trial period of the platform in the past few days. .”

After speaking, click the button to turn to the next page of the PPT.

Data is the best speaker.

What Heiwei said was firm, but he was not conceited, but when he said the first half of the sentence, his eyes glanced away intentionally or unintentionally.

After several questions and answers, the press conference came to an end.

After finally surviving the lunch break, Tadano went to a vending machine to buy a can of coffee, halfway through drinking it, and the two intern reporters next door happened to be discussing the morning meeting.

"Meetings are so boring, I really want to fast forward to the game the day after tomorrow."

"Do you want to watch the game or the players~"

"Hey, don't expose me."

"But speaking of this, the staff of the volleyball association who was in charge of the speech just now is super handsome and tall. I heard that he also played volleyball before."

"Oh, I know, I know, it's the main player of Yinju who played in Spring High in 13, and now you can still find the video on YouTube."

"Really, let me see!"

The young girls were laughing and playing, and the volleyball staff in the conversation knew who it was without thinking too much.

Tadano is not someone who likes to listen to corners, but following the conversation between the two, he curiously entered YouTube and typed in the word "Yinju".

The video starts playing, titled "Junkyard Showdown".

The young man in the crimson team uniform is full of vigor on the court, and every block jump is as eye-catching as if he had his own halo.

The aroma of coffee still lingers on the back of the tongue.

Tadano crushed the empty aluminum can unconsciously, threw it into the trash can with a bang, then took out a pack of cigarettes from his bag, turned and walked into the smoking room.

The smoking room is at the end of the corridor, and the bar is next to the large French windows.

The designer worked hard, probably to let people enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the window while swallowing the clouds.

During the lunch break, she was the only one in Nuo Da's room. Unfortunately, she hadn't finished half a cigarette yet, but suddenly there was another person beside her.

"Hey, let's smoke." Tadano turned his head and looked at Kurobi in surprise.

"Yeah, can't I smoke?" Heiwei took off his suit jacket, put it aside, and leaned sideways on the edge of the bar.

Tadano exhaled a puff of smoke, faced the figure reflected on the glass window, and replied with a smile: "Of course, just ask casually."

"What about Ezaki who was with you, why didn't you have lunch with him at noon?"

Tadano dusted off the cigarette ash: "One hour lunch break, who would want to have dinner with the boss."

"That's not necessarily true." Heiwei loosened his tie with one hand, and unbuttoned the top button of his shirt.

He sighed and said, "Hey, but I'm really tired. Faced with a group of old men who are over half a century old, the corners of my mouth are almost stiff."

"Is that so?" Perhaps because the warm air in the room was too strong, Tadano felt his throat a little dry.

She looked away from the open neckline, thoughtfully: "Looking at the way you look in the morning, I thought you were very capable."

Heiwei smiled wryly: "I haven't seen you for so long, it's not appropriate to come up and make fun of me like this."

"Sorry, just kidding." Tatiano finished speaking, and asked again, "By the way, didn't you come to smoke, and smoke."

"Oh, you reminded me." Black Tail took out the Winston bag from the inside pocket of the suit, and suddenly let out a snort.

He blinked and looked at Tadano: "Oops, I seem to have forgotten my lighter, can I borrow one?"

Winston has low tar and nicotine content, and has a faint vanilla flavor when it is opened out of the box. It is a common brand in supermarkets and convenience stores.

Like a coincidence, but also like premeditated.

After a while, Tatiano bit his cigarette, waved to Heiwei with a smile, and said, "Of course."
