The Common Man's Return in Chinese Entertainment

"Since you like this tea, Qingxu, take some with you when you leave. Just so you know, I don't have much."

"Thank you, Mr. Ma. Then I won't stand on ceremony with you."

"Hey, don't be so polite, we're family now."

Upon hearing this, Ji Qingxu joked, "Mr. Ma, can I take that as meaning I'll come to you for tea if I ever need any?"

"Haha, you little rascal, alright. Come to me for tea next time you're short of it."

Although many people have touted the miraculous effects of pre-Qingming Longjing tea, Ji Qingxu didn't take it to heart. Thinking of the admiration in Ma Zhongjun's eyes earlier, Ji Qingxu smiled, picked up his teacup, and took another sip.

Ji Qingxu had also studied tea ceremony in his previous life. At that time, he learned tea ceremony to show off. However, the girl who taught Ji Qingxu tea ceremony was very beautiful. After he finished learning tea ceremony, Ji Qingxu broke up with that girl.

As for his performance just now, Ji Qingxu did it on purpose. Currently, Ji Qingxu's public image is that of a handsome martial artist.

In many people's minds, "martial arts practitioners" are rude and uncultured. Ji Qingxu doesn't care about other people's opinions when it comes to unfamiliar people, but Ma Zhongjun is now his boss. In order to make Ma Zhongjun value him more and to get more resources from Ma Zhongjun, Ji Qingxu will appropriately "actively" perform.

"Old Kou told you, right?"

Hearing this, Ji Qingxu put down his teacup and replied with a smile, "Yes, I came here today not only to familiarize myself with the company, but also to thank President Ma and the company for their support."

Upon hearing this, Ma Zhongjun smiled enigmatically and said, "Are you so sure I can get this role with you?"

Ji Qingxu grinned and said, "This is Mr. Ma's strength!"

Seeing Ji Qingxu's thumbs-up gesture, Ma Zhongjun couldn't help but laugh.

"Even if I don't get the role, Mr. Ma has worked hard, and I want to thank you."

Ma Zhongjun smiled and gave Ji Qingxu a light tap, "You little rascal, you're quite clever. Hmm, I won't mince words either. If nothing unexpected happens, this role is pretty much a done deal."

Upon hearing this, Ji Qingxu quickly picked up his teacup. "Mr. Ma, let me first offer you a toast with tea instead of wine. Would you do me the honor of joining me tonight? I would like to offer you a few toasts."

Ma Zhongjun smiled and waved his hand, "Don't thank me yet. I'll remember this drink you gave me. Come with me to a drinking party tonight and let them 'test the waters.' Little plan, I've done all the groundwork. This last hurdle is up to you."

Upon hearing this, Ji Qingxu said earnestly, "Mr. Ma, just watch me."

Seeing Ji Qingxu's confident expression, Ma Zhongjun slowly nodded, "Okay."

"Mr. Ma, is tonight's dinner party for the leaders of the entertainment industry?"

"Yes, when you go to the company, you should observe more, listen more, and speak less. The company is not like other companies."

"clear."

After sitting in Ma Zhongjun's office for a while, drinking tea and chatting, Ji Qingxu took the initiative to say that he wanted to familiarize himself with the company and left the office.

......

"Sister Cheng, thank you for your help."

"Don't be shy, come on, let me show you around our company's departments."

"it is good."

Watching the swaying figure of the young woman named Cheng Qian, Ji Qing glanced at Ma Zhongjun's office behind him. Tsk, the boss's secretary may not be young, but she must be beautiful.

However, Ma Zhongjun was born in the 50s and is now in his forties, while Secretary Cheng is in her thirties, so in comparison, he is quite young.

Although the company wasn't very large, it had all the necessary departments. It took less than half an hour to walk around. When Ji Qingxu saw Cheng Qian lead him to a room with the door tightly closed and no sign hanging on it, a thought flashed through his mind.

"Sister Cheng, where is this...?"

Seeing the confusion and curiosity on Ji Qingxu's face, Cheng Qian smiled mysteriously, "Come in and take a look."

As he spoke, he pushed open the door.

Office desk, boss's chair, sofa, coffee table, refrigerator, water dispenser...

Although the room wasn't large, only about twenty square meters, it looked quite "luxurious." Ji Qingxu exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Cheng, is this my office?"

Cheng Qian smiled and said, "Yes, do you like it?"

Ji Qingxu said with a look of surprise, "I like it, thank you Sister Cheng, thank you President Ma."

Seeing Ji Qingxu's reaction, Cheng Qian's smile widened. "If you like it, that's good. This is what President Ma ordered. You are the top star of our Ciwen Media, so you should have the status you deserve. From now on, this room belongs to you."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Ma. I am truly flattered that you think so highly of me."

"The nameplate is being made and should be installed on the door in the next couple of days. If you need anything else, just let me know and I'll have someone arrange it for you."

"No need, no need, it's already very good. Thank you for your help, Sister Cheng."

"Then you can familiarize yourself with it first, and call me if you need anything."

"it is good."

After seeing Cheng Qian off, Ji Qingxu sat on the sofa, looked around his office, and chuckled softly. This CEO Ma is truly "impressive".

Although Ji Qingxu knew that Ma Zhongjun's actions were intended to "benefit" him and also to "show" to those who would follow, compared to those bosses who only made empty promises, this Mr. Ma had indeed done a very good job.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Come in."

"Uncle-Master."

Seeing Zhang Zhong open the door, Ji Qingxu smiled and said, "Come in and sit down. This room is mine from now on."

Zhang Zhong looked around the office and nodded. "Uncle-Master, I will keep an eye on this office and not let anyone else in."

"it is good."

.......

Just as Ji Qingxu was resting in his room with Zhang Zhong, Cheng Qian also arrived at Ma Zhongjun's office.

"Mr. Ma, everything is arranged."

Ma Zhongjun asked with a smile, "What was Ji Qingxu's reaction?"

Cheng Qian smiled and said, "He has all the reactions a young person should have."

Hearing this, Ma Zhongjun raised an eyebrow. "There's something behind your words."

Cheng Qian chuckled and said, "Mr. Ma, how could I dare to show off my limited skills in front of you?"

"Oh, so tell me, what kind of person is this 'number one' in our company?"

Cheng Qian glanced at the direction outside the door, pondered for a moment, and said, "He is a very mature young man with a high level of vision. He is not the kind of young man who has never seen the world. Mr. Ma, this is completely different from the information we have gathered."

Ma Zhongjun said with a smile, "Isn't this even better! I'm not afraid of him being outstanding, I'm just afraid that he can't even meet the requirements on paper."

"Mr. Ma, I think you are even more impressive. You recognized Ji Qingxu's excellence at a glance."

"Hahaha, don't try to bewitch me. I've lived for so many years, if I didn't even have this much sense, wouldn't I have wasted decades of my life?"

After laughing, Ma Zhongjun said seriously, "Tell them to be careful and not to provoke him. No matter how mature he is, he is still a young man. Remember that he is a martial artist."

Cheng Qian asked curiously, "Is his kung fu very good?"

Ma Zhongjun's expression was somewhat strange. "Putting aside whether his kung fu skills are good or not, he is very strong. He once lifted a 300-pound stone lion on the set of 'Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties'."

Upon hearing this news, Cheng Qian covered her red lips in surprise, "300 pounds?"

Ma Zhongjun nodded slightly to confirm, "That's right, and they hugged each other in front of the entire crew."

"My God, this is practically superhuman strength! If he slapped someone, wouldn't they fly through the air?"

Ma Zhongjun said with a half-smile, "It's not just about knocking them away; they could even kill them on the spot."

Cheng Qian paused for a moment, then nodded quickly. "Okay, I'll give the order right away. But there's no one in the company who's that blind. Everyone knows how much President Ma values ​​him. Besides, Ji Qingxu's assistant looks scary. His arms are almost as thick as my thighs, and he has a few scary scars on his face. Who would dare to provoke him?"

Ma Zhongjun couldn't help but chuckle when he thought of Ji Qingxu's assistant. "That little guy, I don't know what he was thinking. People who know him will know he's an assistant, but people who don't will think he's some kind of desperado."

Cheng Qianjiao chuckled, "Mr. Ma, could it be that Ji Qingxu knows he's strong and might accidentally kill someone in a moment of weakness, so he hired an assistant like this?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Zhongjun paused for a moment, then burst into laughter. "You know what, it's actually possible. Interesting, very interesting. This little guy is indeed extraordinary."
