Chapter 243 I'll ask Dad to help you find a job in Beijing (Please subscribe!)
"Sir, do you have any mail for me?"

In the guardhouse of the Anshan Drama Troupe, Chen Xiaoxu would come and ask about it almost every afternoon after she sent photos to the crew of "Under the Hawthorn Tree".

The previous few days had all ended in failure.

This time, Chen Xiaoxu didn't have much hope.

But it was this time, the gatekeeper gave her some good news.

"Comrade Xiao Xu, you've asked again, but I actually received a letter from you today..."

Before the old man could finish speaking, Chen Xiaoxu excitedly interrupted him, "Really, sir? Was it sent from Beijing?"

"That's right, they were sent from the capital, and there were two letters."

As the old man handed the two letters to Chen Xiaoxu through the window, he asked curiously, "Comrade Xiaoxu, why are two organizations in Beijing sending you letters?"

"Probably because I meet their requirements."

After leaving the old man still completely bewildered with these words, Chen Xiaoxu quickly returned to her dormitory with the two letters.

"...Comrade Chen Xiaoxu, after discussion by the main creative team of the production crew, we sincerely invite you to come to Beijing to participate in the audition for the role of Lin Daiyu. The details of the audition are as follows: 1. Audition time: March 1st to April 1st, 1983; Audition location: Preparatory office of the 'Dream of the Red Chamber' production crew at the CCTV building; Required preparation: Please bring two recent passport photos. You may review relevant classic scenes from 'Dream of the Red Chamber' featuring Lin Daiyu beforehand for your on-site performance..."

After reading the invitation letter from the "Dream of the Red Chamber" production team twice, Chen Xiaoxu suppressed her excitement and then picked up another reply letter from Oriental Company.

"Comrade Chen Xiaoxu, thank you for your application. After careful consideration by our production team, we cordially invite you to come to Beijing to audition for the role of Jingqiu. The details of the audition are as follows... If you need to inquire about the details in advance, please feel free to call the production team at 33XX33..."

Chen Xiaoxu read the invitation letter from the "Under the Hawthorn Tree" crew twice before rushing out of the dormitory with the letter in her hand.

She needed to ask for leave; she had to go to the capital right now, she couldn't wait a moment longer...

……

The U.S. Consulate in Los Angeles.

"Director Chen, congratulations. The organization has replied that the film softbox technology is your personal patent, and therefore the patent fees generated are also your personal property and do not need to be handed over."

Hearing that he didn't have to hand it over, Chen Fusheng was naturally happy. His happiness wasn't entirely because he had an extra $100,000 in income, but more so because of the trust and respect he received.

It's important to know that this $100,000 is just the first patent fee. As long as the film softbox continues to be produced, new patent fees will be generated continuously.

And it's impossible that those at the top are unaware of this.

"Director Chen, how do you plan to spend such a large sum of money?" the consul asked with a smile.

"I don't know right now, my head is still a little dizzy," Chen Fusheng said.

Of course, he was just bluffing.

After all, it's only $100,000; it's not enough to make him lose his bearings.

But after he left the consulate, he seriously considered how to handle the $100,000 and the subsequent patent fees.

'Many leaders understand that the best way to handle this $100,000 is to convert it into RMB.'

"As for the subsequent patent fees, not every processing plant will pay honestly, and I can't monitor them all the time. So, perhaps I should set up a company in the United States."

"Yes, setting up a company not only allows me to monitor subsequent patent fee income, but also helps manage the scripts, and even allows me to invest in some good projects in the future..."

Chen Fusheng originally had some concerns about setting up a company here, but when he thought about how many conveniences there were, his concerns became insignificant.

Of course, this matter requires careful consideration.

Chen Fusheng then added in his mind.

After all, he works within the system, so it's naturally not allowed for him to use his own identity to open a company in the United States.

As for opening a subsidiary of the Eastern Company here to help manage one's own businesses, although it's not impossible if done properly, it's ultimately not in compliance with regulations.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Chen Fusheng decided to start a private company.

'I'm not suitable, my wife isn't right either, but it seems like my mother could...'

Achoo!
Overseas Chinese Apartments, Chen Family Residence.

Yang Hongmei was cooking some pickled cabbage and cured meat for Old Chen, who was about to go back home, to take back with his rice. However, she put in too much chili, and the smell was a bit pungent.

In the living room, Old Chen had already moved his luggage out of the bedroom. His grandson and granddaughter knew he was leaving and were somewhat reluctant to part with him. They had been following their grandfather around like little shadows all morning.

"Grandpa, are you going back?"

"Yes, Grandpa has to go back to work."

"Grandpa, can't you work in Beijing?"

"no."

"why?"

"Because my grandfather's workplace was in Jiangcheng."

Chen Qian thought for a moment, then suddenly said innocently, "Grandpa, when my dad comes back, I'll ask him to help you find a job in Beijing, okay?"

Although these words sounded naive, they were quite pleasing to Old Chen's ears.

After all, what bad intentions could this precious granddaughter possibly have? She just can't bear to part with her grandfather.

Moved, Old Chen didn't interrupt his granddaughter's daydream and simply went along with her, saying, "Okay, then after your father comes back, Qianqian, ask him to help me transfer to the capital and see if he has the ability."

"Grandpa, my dad is amazing. He's a director, and lots of people listen to him." Chen Qian happily showed off her father after her grandfather agreed.

"Dad~" Upon hearing the word "Dad," the second child seemed to be reminded of his father and called out "Dad" twice.

Old Chen was reluctant to leave because of this family bliss, but he was about to miss his train if he didn't go soon. So he could only hug the two little ones one last time, pack his luggage, and wave goodbye to their grandmother with the expectation of seeing them again.

"Goodbye Grandpa."

Goodbye, Grandpa will miss you.

Downstairs, the car from Dongfang Company had been waiting for quite some time.

Editorial Department of "Oriental Youth" Magazine

Zheng Yuanjie put down her pen, then let out a long breath and murmured:

"Finally finished."

Hearing his sentiments, a colleague next to him immediately urged, "When you're done writing, quickly give it to me so I can check it for you."

Zheng Yuanjie wasn't stingy either, handing the ending she had just finished writing to her colleague and saying, "Same as always, please check for typos."

"no problem."

The colleague took the novel, then patted his slightly protruding chest and made a promise.

One minute, ten minutes, half an hour...

The colleague read to the last word, closed the novel, and looked at Zheng Yuanjie with a hint of lingering interest, asking:
"I feel like this story isn't over yet. Do you want to continue writing?"

“I don’t know, but I do have some ideas. However, this story is about Comrade Fusheng, so I want to meet with him first.”

"When are you going to see Comrade Fusheng? Can I go with you?"

"It's better to seize the day than to postpone it..."

You mean today?

"No, tomorrow, it's a bit late today."
