The Pentium Era - South to North
Chapter 1614
"Zhang Chen, are you using Professor Zhang's tricks against me? You are really good at talking." Tan Shuzhen looked at Zhang Chen and said.
Zhang Chen smiled and said, "I'm trying to reason with you. If you have a point, you can still argue. You can convince me, and you can even convince Xiang Nan. Didn't I tell you before? Xiang Nan just needs to accept it. With your advice, if she changes her mind, she can go back to school, and all of us can just pretend that this never happened."
"I don't have that ability." Tan Shuzhen said angrily, "I really admire this daughter. If she gets stubborn, even a few cows won't be able to pull her back."
"Isn't that something you inherited?"
"Okay, I'm willing to give up." Tan Shuzhen said impatiently.
"By the way, Tan Shuzhen, there is one thing, have you ever thought about it?" Zhang Chen asked.
"What's up?"
"When the building of our theater is completed, and that building plus the theater troupe, it will become a large-scale company. Aren't you still worried that Lao Gui is not capable enough? If Xiang Nan goes here, won't it be able to make up for him? This can be regarded as taking over from you in advance. I think that since Xiang Nan is managing this area, he might also be able to inherit your genes." Zhang Chen said.
"Go away, I'm too tired to think that far."
"No matter how annoying you are, you have to face it. By the way, Wenwen will also come tomorrow. She should be on your side, or..."
Halfway through Zhang Chen's words, the door opened and Xiang Nan walked in from the outside. She looked at Tan Shuzhen. Fortunately, her face was not as clouded as she imagined. Xiang Nan smiled at them:
"The financial center next door is closed."
"Nan Nan, come here."
Tan Shuzhen waved to the south, walked over to the south, sat down next to Tan Shuzhen, leaned against Tan Shuzhen, and put her hand into Tan Shuzhen's hand. Tan Shuzhen felt her heart softening instantly.
Tan Shuzhen and Xiang Nan said: "Nan Nan, uncle Zhang Chen has told mom about your matter. You really have to go your own way. As long as you decide, mom will not object, but mom is worried about you. Don’t regret it again in a few days and feel that your decision was wrong.”
"Mom, I won't. I definitely won't regret it. I thought about it for a long time before making this decision." Xiang Nan said.
"Don't say it so quickly, Nannan, promise mom, you'll stay at home for the next two days. Think calmly, mom, calm down too. If we have any ideas, let's have a good discussion. If you finally feel like you want to go back to school. , let’s go back to school and continue schooling. If you really don’t want to go back and want to join the theater troupe, mom won’t put any more pressure on you, okay?”
Xiang Nan nodded and said yes, thank you mom.
Zhang Chen looked at his watch. It was already past six o'clock. Zhang Chen said let's go have dinner. Xiangnan, what do you want to eat?
"Tuxiangyuan, I want to eat something spicy." Xiang Nan called.
Zhang Chen said yes, I'll call and ask where there are private rooms.
"Whatever you want to fight, just go there." Tan Shuzhen said, "There are no private rooms, so you can sit in the lobby."
Zhang Chen said: "At this time, there may not even be a seat in the lobby, so you have to wait."
"Then just wait, what are you afraid of?" Tan Shuzhen said, while Xiang Nan nodded "hmm" on the side.
The three of them went downstairs and drove Tan Shuzhen's car there. When they arrived at the Tuxiangyuan Hotel on Yan'an Road, Tan Shuzhen dropped Zhang Chen and Xiang Nan at the door, and she went to park the car herself.
Zhang Chen and Xiang Nan stood outside the gate waiting for Tan Shuzhen. Zhang Chen asked Xiang Nan: "Xiang Nan, you want to go to the troupe so much. Do you have any ideas about the troupe?"
"Of course, I have a lot of ideas." Xiang Nan said.
"Then I'll tell you everything later and give myself some weight. Do you understand?" Zhang Chen said.
Xiang Nan chuckled and said, "I know, uncle."
Tan Shuzhen arrived and the three of them walked inside. The greeter at the door panicked when she saw Zhang Chen. She looked at the order form in her hand and said to Zhang Chen:
"Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry, I may have forgotten to write down your order. Do you know which private room it is?"
Zhang Chen smiled and said, "We just came here on a last-minute basis and didn't make a reservation."
The greeting guests breathed a sigh of relief. When the general manager saw them, he quickly came over and said to him, "Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment, and I will find a way to arrange a seat for you right away."
Zhang Chen saw many people sitting in front of the cashier waiting for a seat. He smiled and said, "No, we are just waiting in line. There is no need to jump in line."
"Give us a number." Xiang Nan said, and the receptionist quickly brought a number to her.
Looking to the south, there were about twenty tables in front of her. She pulled Tan Shuzhen and said, "Mom, I'll invite you to drink brother Minsheng's milk tea."
After the Ban Mu Tian specialty store on Yan'an Road was demolished, the milk tea shop owned by Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, was also demolished. The new milk tea shop they later opened is on the podium of the International Building, not far from here.
The mother and daughter walked out. Zhang Chen found a stool and sat down. The general manager was still standing beside him. Zhang Chen said to her, you are busy with your own business and don't worry about me.
The general manager said yes. Zhang Chen remembered and asked, "Huijuan isn't here?"
"She went to Shanghai. Our second store in Shanghai will open after the Chinese New Year." The general manager said, and Zhang Chen nodded.
Zhang Chen sat there, watching people coming in and out. The business was very busy, and people kept coming in from behind, lining up behind Zhang Chen and the others.
The receptionist looked at Zhang Chenqian sitting there, fearing that he would be lonely, so he came over and asked, Mr. Zhang, do you want to read newspapers and magazines? I can get them for you?
Zhang Chen shook his head and said no, thank you.
After a while, the greeter came over again and asked, Mr. Zhang, do you want some bubble gum?
Zhang Chen smiled and said no, thank you, you are busy with your business and don't worry about me.
The welcome said yes.
Zhang Chen knew that in Yingbin's eyes, he must feel that sitting like this, doing nothing, was boring. How could she know that Zhang Chen was very satisfied sitting here, watching people coming in and out? But they are all his guests, and everyone looks so cute.
Even those old men who came down from upstairs, even their necks were red, and they were staggering when they walked, they all looked so cute, which would not be seen in other stores, in other people's stores. Such a feeling.
Zhang Chen thought of how he and Xiao Zhao had just opened a store in Sijiqing. The market was deserted and dead. At that time, they were sitting in the stall, looking forward to seeing someone walking around the door of the store, especially when they saw that there were still people walking around. When someone comes to your store, you will instantly become nervous and your heart will beat fast.
Zhang Chen thought of the little girl from the bank at the entrance of the market who often came to their stall. She was no longer young anymore. I wonder how she is doing now? I hope she lives a happy life.
Zhang Chen remembered that time, every time Xiao Zhao talked about this little girl, his tone was sour, and Zhang Chen couldn't help but laugh.
"Why are you sitting alone and giggling?"
Tan Shuzhen and Xiang Nan came back with a cup of milk tea in their hands. Zhang Chen didn't notice it. Tan Shuzhen asked him, and Zhang Chen quickly said that it was okay, and he remembered a funny thing from before.
Xiang Nan handed the bag in her hand to Zhang Chen. Inside was a cup of milk tea she brought back for Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen took it in his hand and asked:
"Have you met Min Sheng?"
Tan Shuzhen said no, Brother Liu went to Guangzhou, and Minsheng had been in their central kitchen in Xiasha these two days. Zhang Chen nodded.
Zhang Chen looked at the milk tea in his hand and asked Xiang Nan, "Uncle doesn't want to drink milk tea now, can I give this away?"
Xiang Nan nodded.
Zhang Chen stood up, walked to the guest, and said to her, "Come, I'll treat you to milk tea."
The greeter quickly said: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang! We are not allowed to eat while we are at work..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he remembered that the other party was the boss. The receptionist laughed, quickly took the milk tea, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang!"
Zhang Chen said, just drink secretly without being seen by your boss.
The guest smiled and said, "Okay, when I see it, I will tell you that you gave it to me."
"Okay." Zhang Chen said, "If you want to deduct the bonus, let her deduct mine."
Tan Shuzhen took the order form from the greeter and said to her: "You can find a place to drink, I will do it for you."
The greeter quickly said thank you to Mr. Tan.
The welcome guest walked away with the milk tea, looked at them towards the south, and asked playfully: "What are you doing, are you trying to lead the people below?"
Tan Shuzhen smiled and said, I don’t know, if you ask him, it’s the person below him anyway.
Zhang Chen said: "The advantage of being a boss is that you can criticize the people below you for making mistakes, and you can also instruct the people below you to make mistakes."
"Fuck you!" Tan Shuzhen cursed, and the three people laughed.
The other guests who were waiting for their meals didn't hear what they were saying, but they felt that this family of three was really affectionate, and the parents were too young, and the mother and daughter looked like sisters.
When the guests came back from drinking milk tea, it was Zhang Chen's turn. Zhang Chen didn't ask the waiter to lead them in. He just asked for the station number. He knew where it was.
The three people sat down on a small table in the hall. The orderer came over immediately. When he saw it was them, he was stunned again and blurted out:
"Why are you guys?"
Zhang Chen smiled and said, "Why, you're not welcome."
The orderer quickly said: "No, no, boss, aren't you all eating inside?"
Zhang Chen said, there are no seats inside. We waited in line at the gate for more than half an hour to get there.
The ordering clerk looked at Zhang Chen suspiciously, as if he was lying to me.
Zhang Chen said: "We want very spicy dishes. If we don't order them, you can arrange them for us."
"Is it okay to have two pots, three hot dishes, and one cold dish?" the orderer asked.
Zhang Chen said yes.
The ordering clerk wrote down the menu and showed it to Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen motioned for her to show it to Xiang Nan. Xiang Nan said without even looking at it, "Okay, I almost want to die. Every dish here is delicious."
The orderer smiled and left.
The food came quickly. Zhang Chen drank, while Tan Shuzhen and Xiang Nan drank hot corn juice. After the three of them ate and drank for a while, Zhang Chen asked Xiang Nan:
"Xiang Nan, if you really want to go to the troupe, do you have any ideas?"
Xiang Nan said: "I want to put on new plays, and I think Wu opera also needs to keep pace with the times. I want to put on new Wu opera, modern Wu opera, so that it can attract young audiences and urban audiences."
"Modern Wu Opera? It's interesting, how to do it?" Zhang Chen asked.
Xiang Nan said: "Do you still remember Zhang Guangtian? I have participated in his plays."
"Remember, it's the one who ranked "Che Guevara" and "Rhinoceros in Love." Zhang Chen said.
"Yes, drama is very advanced now. I think I have received a lot of inspiration from him. If drama can be changed, why can't Wu opera be changed?" Xiang Nan said.
Tan Shuzhen reminded: "Nannan, it's okay to want to change, but you have to be down-to-earth. You can't just think about changing before you know much about Wu opera. Changes should only be made after a deep understanding, so that you can Only by grasping the soul of Wu Opera can it never deviate from its origins, rather than changing and changing, thus disappearing Wu Opera."
"Xiang Nan, did you hear that? Your mother's experience is very good. This old artist is just different." Zhang Chen said.
"Get out!" Tan Shuzhen cursed and laughed to the south.
Xiang Nan said: "Next, I want to follow a person for a while and learn from him."
"Who?" Zhang Chen asked.
"Teacher Bai Xianyong, his youth version of Kun Opera "The Peony Pavilion" is now touring across the country and is very popular. I want to learn from him and see how he reformed Kun Opera." Xiang Nan said.
Zhang Chen asked: "Do you know Bai Xianyong?"
"I don't know him, but I know that Xiaohu. They, Fubon Financial Holdings, have funded many literary and artistic groups in Taiwan and have connections with them."
Xiang Nan said: "He said he could help me introduce him. He also knows Lin Huaimin, the teacher of 'Cloud Gate Dance Theatre'. I also want to go to Taipei to see how the 'Cloud Gate Dance Theater' trains and performs. I think they, I have a religious piety towards dance, and I hope that everyone in the future theater troupes can also have this attitude towards drama, so that they can find their own way."
Zhang Chen nodded and said to Xiang Nan:
"Yes, no matter what you do, you really have to be a little paranoid, which is what you call religious piety. Isn't it true that only paranoid people can survive? This Lin Huaimin is a bit paranoid about modern dance. He is the kind of person who likes to get into trouble. people."
As Tan Shuzhen listened, her heart felt empty. She felt that there was no need to think about it calmly. Her daughter knew it. She understood that Xiang Nan had already decided to go to the theater, even if it was dark.
Tan Shuzhen really wanted to kick Zhang Chen. This daughter is already trying to get to the end of her road. If you don't open up the pot, you are talking about being over the top.
Thank you Daosheng 123, Lao Shen Xisang, Dong Longdong, and Wooden Man for your monthly votes! Thanks for all the votes and reading! Have a good evening everyone!
