The Broker of the Big Three [Myth]

For the whole winter vacation, Chi Ruo lived a happy and fulfilling life, plus he didn't have to go to Jiang's mansion for regular appointments, so he felt that he was detached and didn't have to be disturbed by mundane things anymore.

However, it was not difficult to avoid the other members of the Jiang family (the other members of the Jiang family simply assumed that there was no such person as Chi Ruo in the family), but Jiang Xiao had to answer the phone.Chi Ruo has never forgotten the shock he felt when Jiang Xiao told himself that he planned to invest in Ji Xuan's unknown brokerage company that hadn't opened yet—it's no exaggeration to say that at that moment, Chi Ruo sincerely felt that Jiang Xiao crazy……

"Big brother."

Although the thought of "Jiang Xiao is crazy" crossed his mind, it was just an impulsive thought after all. Chi Ruo also knew that Jiang Xiao was not crazy after he regained consciousness. This decision was made, and before the decision was made, he had already thought carefully about the series of consequences that this matter might cause.His choice is also a choice as an adult who is sure that he can bear the consequences.

Such a big brother, Chi Ruo admired very much - she boasted that if she was in Jiang Xiao's position, she would never have the courage to take the initiative to bear the consequences of giving up everything at her fingertips, and choose to invest and start another business.

This kind of admiration also made Chi Ruo more humble and gentle when facing Jiang Xiao later. If we say that although he was grateful to Jiang Xiao before, every time he faced Jiang Xiao, his attitude still had a bit or two If it is "fake", then now, she has recognized this "big brother" sincerely.

"Ruoruo." Jiang Xiao seemed to be attending some sort of party - based on the fact that it was still the first lunar month, and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month hadn't passed yet, Chi Ruo guessed that he might be attending a family gathering.As Chi Ruo expected, Jiang Xiao's next sentence confirmed her guess was correct, "I'm at my grandpa's house now..."

He paused for a moment. It seemed that someone else was talking to Jiang Xiao on the phone.Jiang Xiao covered the microphone of the mobile phone and said something softly to the man, Chi Ruo couldn't hear clearly, but fortunately Jiang Xiao didn't make Chi Ruo wait too long, and quickly continued: "Ruo Ruo, you leave Zhuo Chun My mother already knows about it, she appreciates your decision, and wants to have a meal with you... She asked me just now, can I go to Lanruo Xiaozhu for dinner?"

Jiang Xiao's mother... Yu Xinzhuo?

Chi Ruo still remembers that he and the first Mrs. Jiang had the experience of eating at the same table. That time, the paparazzi just had an oolong and broke the news that she was Jiang Xiao's girlfriend. Yu Xinzhuo knew Later, she became curious about her and asked to see Chi Ruo.That meal, for Yu Chiruo, was a rare experience where he felt relaxed and happy while eating at the same table with his elders. Looking back now, he still feels that Yu Xinzhuo's hug before leaving was very caring and warm, It shows the love of the elders towards the younger ones.

One more meal, though...

If possible, Chi Ruo's first reaction was to refuse, but in the face of Jiang Xiao's and Yu Xinzhuo's enthusiasm, it was difficult to say the words of refusal, so he turned a corner on his lips, and finally swallowed it, and replaced it with a promise Then, "Okay, big brother, when is Auntie free?"

"I'm afraid it won't work these days." The phone is still noisy, but the answer is not beyond Chi Ruo's expectation. It's still the first lunar month, and the Lantern Festival has not yet passed on the 15th of the first lunar month. Longcheng had a lot of entertainment.I'm afraid I don't have time for the next week,

If the time is set for a week later, then Chi Ruo has enough time and can arrange it calmly so that Nie Xiaoqian can reserve the venue at the agreed time.

On the other side of the phone, Jiang Xiao talked a few words with the people around him before saying, "My mother said that I have time next Thursday night, and if I go to have dinner, it won't delay Lan Ruo Xiaozhu's weekend business."

"Of course." Thursday night was not a difficult time to arrange. Chi Ruo agreed immediately, and after confirming with Jiang Xiao, he ended the phone call.

***

"I've heard that Xiao Ruo brought artists to open a restaurant in Longcheng University. I wanted to try it early in the morning, but I never found the opportunity."

On Thursday night, Jiang Xiao and Yu Xinzhuo showed up outside Lan Ruo Xiaozhu's gate on time according to the agreed time.Chi Ruo waited here early in the morning, and as soon as Jiang Xiao's car stopped at the gate of Lan Ruo Xiaozhu, he took the initiative to go over to help Yu Xinzhuo get off the car, and after Jiang Xiao parked the car, he walked side by side with Yu Xinzhuo Into the restaurant.

Today's menu was naturally carefully arranged by Chi Ruo and Nie Xiaoqian. Taking into account the time of their arrival, they first served a few cold dishes.Since Yu Xinzhuo entered Lanruo Xiaozhu, she has been looking around at the decoration of this small shop, complimenting it from time to time, and took the initiative to taste a few cold dishes made by Nie Xiaoqian, "Well, it's delicious! I heard about it before. Miss Nie is good at cooking, and I finally tasted it today."

Nie Xiaoqian is preparing the next few dishes in the back kitchen. This kind of praise can only be accepted by Chi Ruo, "If Qianqian hears it, she will be very happy. However, I am not praising my friend. Qianqian's cooking skills are indeed outstanding. The best I have ever seen in my life—even the chefs in some five-star restaurants can't compare to her!"

Compared with Chi Ruolai, Yu Xinzhuo has seen more of the world, and often goes to and from five-star hotels. When talking about this topic, he is more qualified than Chi Ruo.After hearing Chi Ruo's words, she immediately showed a look of agreement, "It's not—to be honest, many of the food tastes in five-star restaurants are not good, and what they sell more is service."

Jiang Xiao also agreed with his mother, "Yeah, compared to the taste, many hyped chefs are not as good as Xiao Ruo in terms of cooking skills." Seeing the surprised expression on his mother's face, he hurriedly said, "Maybe Mom doesn't know Well, Xiao Ruo has learned cooking skills from Ms. Nie for a while, and the meals they cook are also very delicious."

"I didn't expect Xiao Ruo to be able to cook." Yu Xinzhuo sighed from the bottom of her heart, "This is much better than me—my parents hoped that I could learn to cook since I was a child, although they never forced me to learn how to cook. , but I always dislike me for spoofing women who don’t even know how to hold a spatula. I also had the idea of ​​learning to cook, not to mention anything else. When I was abroad, I occasionally wanted to eat some home-cooked and delicious meals. Cooks outside can’t satisfy your taste buds. If you learn how to cook, you can do whatever you want to eat yourself, which is also very good-unfortunately, I don’t seem to be born with this string, and until now, I haven’t learned a few dishes. "

Jiang Xiao also dismantled his mother's table at the right time, "My mother can cook chicken soup, put a few chicken wings, cut two slices of ginger, and cook it in a while. The taste is not bad. Except for this dish, she can't talk about anything else. Good at it."

"It's pretty good to be able to cook chicken soup." Yu Xinzhuo glared at his son reproachfully, and then defended himself, "This is always a Taoist dish, and in all parts of the world, I haven't heard that there is no chicken that can't be eaten— In fact, I can also make braised pork rice. Unfortunately, pork is taboo in some places, and the ingredients required for braised pork are complicated. If you want to have a good taste, fermented bean curd is essential, but apart from domestic, And in some big cities abroad with Chinatown, where do you go to find fermented bean curd in other places? You can’t always carry a bottle in your suitcase, so it’s not as simple and convenient as chicken soup.”

Chi Ruo also deeply agrees with this statement, but she has never been abroad after all, and she has no way of talking about whether it is really inconvenient to go abroad.However, this simple and convenient chicken soup with ginger slices can be learned. If it is really delicious, adding noodles is a quick breakfast.

Chatting like this, after a while the hot dishes were almost served, Yu Xin Zhuo changed the topic to the main topic, "Xiao Ruo, I have already heard from your elder brother about your leaving Zhuo Chun Entertainment."

Chi Ruo couldn't help being a little embarrassed, although she also knew that Yu Xinzhuo might not—certainly wouldn't object to her decision, but after all, Yu Xinzhuo was the chairman of Zhuochun Group above the name, and she resigned from the company she named , In any case, it is not a happy cooperation.

"I think your decision is very good." Yu Xinzhuo took the initiative to add a chicken wing to Chi Ruo's plate, "You are still so young, you can't live in a cage forever. When your elder brother went to college, I let him When going abroad, after graduating from university, let him go to other countries and other companies for a few years. After accumulating certain experience, he will come to Zhuochun to take a management position directly. I always think that if he returns to China to join Zhuochun directly after graduating from university , that person will be useless! Look at Jiang Huihui..."

When Jiang Huihui was mentioned, Yu Xinzhuo didn't go any further, but shifted the topic to Jiang Chunsheng with a bit of contempt, "What kind of way does Lao Jiang treat Huihui, and he still plays the role of dominance in the company!"

Speaking of these two people, it's inconvenient for Chi Ruo to comment more. In fact, she doesn't want to talk about these two people at all.As for Jiang Xiao, he lives under the same roof as Jiang Chunsheng and Jiang Huihui every day. No matter how he thinks about his biological father and half-sister in his heart, at least when he lives together, on the surface, he still respects these two people very much.

Neither Chi Ruo nor Jiang Xiao responded to Yu Xinzhuo's words, and Yu Xinzhuo didn't take it seriously. He followed the topic and talked about the new company. Is it ready, when will it open, do you have any artists in reserve?" Then he said, "Your elder brother has already told me that he intends to invest in your new company, and I support this decision—if your side If there is any problem with the funds, I can also ask my natal family to invest in you, don't worry, I won't cheat you."

Chi Ruo could tell that Yu Xinzhuo's question about the company was just out of sheer curiosity, not to point fingers, but many of the questions she asked related to Tianting, so it was inconvenient to answer.Moreover, Ji Xuan is completely responsible for many of these things, even if Chi Ruo wanted to say it, he didn't know and couldn't answer it.

She had no choice but to pick what she could say, "Actually, it wasn't me who started the business. It was the manager who brought me up when I was in Zhuochun. I resigned and went on a business trip, which is also for the establishment of the new company. As for the progress, it’s the Chinese New Year now, so I don’t have much to ask. After the Chinese New Year, he will return from a business trip, so he can decide when the new company will be established , Opening, I will definitely tell Aunt Yu back when the time comes."

Yu Xinzhuo frowned slightly, hesitant to speak, Chi Ruo hurriedly told Yu Xinzhuo his position in the new company, "Well, I don't know anything about the establishment of a company. At that time, I was only in charge of the artists’ affairs, such as talking about resources and signing contracts. When I got to the new company, I was also in charge of the artist’s work. For the time being, I was the only manager and my assistant in the company. There is only one, Yan Yao, who I brought before. Recently, she only thinks about falling in love, and she doesn't have much work. I plan, if Qianqian wants to come back, she can also sign with me. Of course, the new trainee , Artists are also being looked for, but the company has not yet been registered, so it is not good to sign a contract with them now."

Although Chi Ruo has tried his best to portray the company's prospects as reliable as possible, but to Yu Xinzhuo's ears, it is still like playing a house, which is very child's play.

However, Chi Ruo is not her biological daughter, and some words have come to her lips, but it is difficult to say them. "Have you hired someone else from your company?" She had no choice but to ask, "It can't just be managers and artists."

"There are already some candidates." Chi Ruo had to work harder to make the company look more reliable, "The financial staff has been hired, an accountant, a cashier, and the most important public relations of the brokerage company are also ready-made When I was in Zhuochun before..." She paused, but she finally lifted half of her hole card slightly, "At that time, I actually cooperated with this team, and the drafts were sent out several times. The team already had a friendship with Mr. Ji, and now it happens to be transferred to the new company. As for other positions, no candidates have been confirmed yet, so we have to wait for the company to open before we can formally recruit people."

In fact, many small companies, that is, the boss, a staff member and an accountant—even many small companies don’t even have their own accountants, and they directly cooperate with an accounting studio. Compared with these, Chi Ruo is about to The startup company is still relatively large.

It's not that Yu Xinzhuo is completely ignorant of the difficulty of starting a business. It's just that the times are changing and people's views are changing. After she succeeds, even if she wants the juniors to experience outside, she always hopes that their working environment can be better and not be so hard. .After hearing so much from Chi Ruo, she finally agreed a little bit that this company does have potential for development.

"It sounds like your new company isn't just a whim."

Speaking of this topic, Chi Ruo felt a little uncomfortable again. Fortunately, there is Ji Xuan above her, and she can push everything to Ji Xuan. "Mr. Ji——Ji Xuan told me that he really wanted to start his own business for a long time. He was willing to take me to the new company because he thought my work ability was not bad. The affairs of these new companies are basically Ji's business. Xuan planned well in advance."

He boasted a bit shamelessly to himself, but Yu Xinzhuo smiled knowingly, "A scholar dies for a confidant, he is willing to recognize your ability, and you follow him to set up a new company, and you are also giving yourself a chance, maybe You can stand on a bigger stage. This Ji Xuan... I also know that your elder brother has a good relationship with him, and he mentioned it twice in front of me. He is a very capable person."

This was almost the first time Chi Ruo heard Ji Xuan's name from a complete "outsider", and couldn't help being curious, "Has Aunt Yu met Ji... Xuan?"

"Manager Ji" or "Mr. Ji" are familiar. Due to Ji Xuan's identity, Chi Ruo seldom calls him by his first name. Even if he mentions it in front of outsiders, he rarely says it directly. the name.Occasionally once or twice, there is no psychological burden. Chi Ruo himself feels a little unaccustomed to calling him by his first name too many times, but to Yu Xinzhuo, if he keeps calling Ji Xuan as "Mr. It's very strange... However, this is also because Chi Ruo seldom talks about Ji Xuan with outsiders, and after saying his name a few times, he gradually gets used to it.

"I met him at an event." Yu Xinzhuo's impression of Ji Xuan was indeed not only created by his son's mention.

"What kind of person does Aunt Yu think Ji Xuan is?" Chi Ruo pondered for a moment, feeling that he hadn't expressed himself very clearly, "I don't mean his ability to work, but...Aunt Yu thinks he is a very good person. Are you a good communicator?"

Although Ji Xuan has never been fierce to Chi Ruo, every time he communicates with Ji Xuan about work matters, Chi Ruo always lacks confidence, fearing that he will be reprimanded for failing to do something well.Of course, this is also because she is indeed a little immature in her work, and Ji Xuan needs to mention it occasionally, so it's no wonder that Chi Ruo always feels guilty when facing Ji Xuan.

"Why, Ji Xuan has a bad attitude towards you at work?" Although he agrees that juniors need experience in order to grow up, but he is naturally protective, and when he thinks that someone has a bad attitude towards his child, his brows immediately frown.

"No, no." The master is used to being a master, and when Yu Xinzhuo frowned, Chi Ruo was also frightened by this momentum, and hurriedly explained to Ji Xuan, "Ji Xuan can't say that his attitude is bad, it's just... more serious Well, be serious, I am always afraid that I will say the wrong thing or do the wrong thing.”

Hearing this, Jiang Xiao smiled and shook his head, "Ji Xuan really has a paralyzed face. He doesn't smile when he encounters even the most ridiculous things, and he won't be shocked by big things. It's like an injection in the face. Very stingy."

It was rare for Yu Xinzhuo to see his son speak so funny, so he laughed, "Speaking of which, this is not like the him I saw. I remember the time I saw him, although the expression on his face was not rich, but he should smile Sometimes they will also laugh together.”

However, when Yu Xinzhuo met Ji Xuan, it was a business banquet after all, and when Ji Xuan wanted to, she should be able to do as the Romans do.Chi Ruo himself has never seen Ji Xuan's appearance during business dinners, and it sounds fresh, and at the same time secretly looking forward to: When will he be able to see this side of Ji Xuan, and even see him face the Jade Emperor in the heavenly court? When it looks good.

With this longing in mind, Chi Ruo, Yu Xinzhuo, and Jiang Xiao gossiped about Ji Xuan. After a meal, both the host and the guest enjoyed the meal. It was nearly 9:[-], and Yu Xinzhuo's face showed a little tiredness. End this delightful dinner.Jiang Xiao wanted to pay, but Nie Xiaoqian refused to accept it no matter what. Yu Xinzhuo is not a free eater, but in her capacity, even for Chi Ruo's sake, Nie Xiaoqian would not accept the money for this meal In the end, it was Chi Ruo who came forward and asked Nie Xiaoqian to accept the money, and secretly decided in her heart that the next time she had a chance to meet Yu Xinzhuo, she must give a decent gift.

Jiang Xiao went outside to warm up the car first, Yu Xinzhuo was not in a hurry to go out, but grabbed Chi Ruo and took her aside to talk privately.Chi Ruo guessed that Xin Zhuo had something to tell him. If Jiang Xiao couldn't listen, it might be about the Jiang family.

"Jiang Chunsheng recently sent a message to the industry, do you know?" Yu Xinzhuo said, it was a piece of heavy news.

Chi Ruo shook her head blankly. Ever since she decided to leave Zhuo Chun and made the matter public within the Jiang family, she has been marginalized within Zhuo Chun. No more inside information was heard.As for the news in the circle, given her recent idle state, it is even more impossible to know.

Yu Xinzhuo frowned slightly, with a look of disdain in her eyes, "I've always felt that the bigger Jiang Chunsheng's business is, the more out of order he will be, especially now that the people around him can't restrain him, making him more psychologically inflated, really. What kind of person do you think you are!" After burying his ex-husband, Yu Xinzhuo told Chi Ruo, "Every year before the Spring Festival, there are many business meetings in the circle, and Jiang Chunsheng only picked one or two in previous years. But this year, as long as there is permission, I will not refuse - I don't pay much attention to the affairs in the circle now, this is what my elder brother told me. The people at my natal family originally thought that Jiang Chunsheng was in private affairs. If you want to make a big move, for fear of harming Jiang Xiao, after careful investigation, I found out that it turned out that he had already told the people in the circle that he would boycott your and Ji Xuan's new agency."

"Boy, boycott?" Chi Ruo was surprised, and she asked in puzzlement: "Aunt Yu, has our company started, and is it boycotting?"

The disdain on Yu Xinzhuo's face became stronger, "That's why I said that he is acting more and more disorganized now. The juniors want to go out on their own, which is something that should be encouraged, but he is good. Your provocation of his authority, mobilizing people for a small matter, you have to show the authority of your own industry leader! People in the circle are still supporting him on the surface, but in fact Zhuo Chun is now in the entertainment industry. He doesn't know what his status is? It all depends on his old background, few newcomers can stand alone, and the popular ones are kept cold by him..."

Although it seems that he is only a nominal chairman, although he has never participated in the company's decision-making in recent years, he is like an invisible person, but only after hearing Yu Xinzhuo's opening, he can analyze Zhuochun's current situation clearly in a few words, Chi Ruo knows, Whether it's because of his own hard work or because of his son, Yu Xinzhuo's attitude towards Zhuo Chun is not as indifferent as it appears on the surface.

"Aunt Yu, this is really the first time I've heard of this, thank you for telling me."

"You don't need to be polite to me." Yu Xinzhuo smiled confidently, "When the company really opens, you can come to me if you have any problems." Yu Xinzhuo blinked at Chi Ruo, and then Turn around and leave.
