Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

It turned out to be different from what I thought. They did not simply give me a bidding qualification, but directly agreed to cooperate.

I also wanted to show them my design and have them review it. Don't they usually use foreign teams? I wanted them to see how advanced domestic fireworks have become.

But all my preparations were nothing compared to a single word from someone else. Just like that, they took it. It was like a sudden change of quality. It was a blatant shortcut!"

Hearing Xu Huanshan say this, Gu Jia knew that he had committed the artist's problem again, so she advised:

"Husband, this is a society based on personal relationships. Who wants to take a detour when they can take a shortcut, right? You're just overthinking it. The person in charge of Beijing Paradise must listen to the boss's orders. What's there to worry about?

It’s not that you haven’t demonstrated your talent. Han Tao recommended our company to you after seeing your work one day and sharing a lot of his ideas with you.

If he doesn't like your design, he won't introduce us to Boss Yu and his team. We don't have that much face."

"That's right, honey, why didn't you think of that? Han Tao saw my entry, so I guess I'm just being too picky, or you're just amazing!"

After that, Xu Huanshan didn't wait for Gu Jia to respond, and said flatteringly: "Wife, you have worked hard during this period. I really want to give you something and reward you well. Is there anything you particularly want?"

Seeing that he changed his mind so quickly, Gu Jia rolled her eyes at him and said, "Don't mess with the company's money. Once we get all the orders and our company's profits stabilize, I'll pay Shen Jie back first. Once we get Binhai's new order, I'll make a killing from you!"

"No, hit me now! I always make my wife angry. Just hit me hard on the head!"

"Stop it, how can I bear to hit you!"

Gu Jia smiled, put the Band-Aid on Xu Huanshan's hand, and then discussed with him, "Honey, I want to tell you something. The dessert shop downstairs is being sold, and I want to take it over.

I've already planned the money, using it from my insurance purchases. I've already notified my broker to cancel the policy!"

"Dessert shop? Why did you think of doing this again, and you want to return the insurance?" Xu Huanshan looked at Gu Jia with some confusion.

Glancing at him, Gu Jia hesitated for a moment and said, "Because I want to join the afternoon tea event of the wives' circle. Their event is to exchange business information among various companies. There are many opportunities to seize, so I plan to provide this venue.

The nature of our company is special. A fireworks company is like fireworks. Everything is sitting on a powder keg. If nothing goes wrong, it's fine. But if something goes wrong, it will be a big deal. That's why I made this decision.

After all, you can't put all your eggs in one basket. On the one hand, I want to get information from the wives' circle, and on the other hand, I want to do a side job. I just want to pave a more solid path for our family so that we can have a way out. "

"Listen to your wife, you are the pillar of our family!"

Hearing Xu Huanshan say this, Gu Jia chuckled, rolled her eyes at him, and then walked towards the room while sending a thank you message to Han Tao.

Chapter 304 Jiang Nansun: "Conquering People with Virtue"

Because of Yuanyuan's affairs these days, Zhu Suosuo took advantage of the weekend and took Jiang Nansun for a walk on the street for half a day.

At this time, the two of them were walking hand in hand in the mall, and their other two hands were also full of bags. Many girls passing by saw the luxury brand logos on the bags and their eyes were full of envy.

After exiting the mall, Zhu Suosuo looked at the coffee shop not far away and said, "I'm so tired, Nansun. There's a coffee shop up ahead. Let's go there to rest for a while, have a bite to eat, and then go home!"

Jiang Nansun looked at Zhu Suosuo and nodded in agreement: "Okay, then go and rest for a while!"

After that, the two of them walked in with a smile. As the doorbell rang, Yuan Yuan, wearing a waiter's uniform, came out and said, "Welcome!"

Seeing Yuan Yuan in front of them, Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun were very surprised and couldn't help asking, "Yuan Yuan, why are you here?"

"Sister Nansun, you and Sister Suosuo come out shopping. I'm working here!"

In fact, Yuan Yuan couldn't help but be a little surprised, especially when she saw the things the two were holding. She had been catching up on a lot of knowledge in the past few days. The prices of these brands of things were not cheap at all.

"Yes!" Jiang Nansun nodded and asked with concern, "I didn't expect you to say you were applying for a job here. Are you adapting well? It's very close to Jingyan Group. If you need any help, you can find Suosuo!"

Yuan Yuan nodded: "Thank you, Sister Nansun, I'm fine. It's better not to disturb Sister Suosuo from working!"

"Don't bother me. I work nearby. As for coffee, I usually have one cup in the morning and one cup at noon. If you include the afternoon or evening, I can come here at least three times. If you have anything, feel free to call me anytime. You're welcome."

Zhu Suosuo, this crazy fan, definitely supports her best friend Jiang Nansun.

Hearing this, Yuan Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, Sister Suosuo, thank you and Sister Nansun for taking care of me. I'll make you something to drink!"

"Bring us a cake and two Americanos with skim milk, cold, if you please."

"No trouble, this is my job, it's my duty. By the way, the cake should be a coconut tart, right?"

After saying that, Yuan Yuan went to the counter to get the cake and put it on the tray for the two of them, and then went to make coffee.

Seeing her walk away, Zhu Suosuo turned around and walked a few steps with her things. After putting them on a window seat, she pulled Jiang Nansun and whispered:

"I didn't expect to meet Yuan Yuan here, and she fought so hard. You have to keep your eyes open, Princess Jiang. This is definitely someone who is not easy to deal with. Don't be careless and underestimate the enemy!"

Jiang Nansun smiled and replied calmly: "You think I'm a vegetarian. Although it's only two days, I have already investigated it thoroughly!"

Hearing her say this, Zhu Suosuo looked at Jiang Nansun curiously and asked, "What's the situation? What is her relationship with Zhang Anren?"

"Wait until you see this, and you'll know what's going on."

As she spoke, Jiang Nansun took out her cell phone and opened a photo for Zhu Suosuo. This was a photo she received while shopping. She had planned to show it to Zhu Suosuo when she got home, but she happened to be talking about this, so there was no need to wait.

Zhu Suosuo looked down and saw a photo of Zhang Anren and Yuan Yuan. The two of them were hugging each other intimately with sweet smiles on their faces. The background was the Oriental Pearl Tower. Judging from the clothes the two people were wearing in the photo, it should have been taken a few years ago.

After Jiang Nansun took the phone back, Zhu Suosuo said angrily: "You came prepared. Is there any truth in Zhang Anren's mouth? He said that we haven't been in touch for more than ten years. What's this?

It's obvious that this photo was taken a few years ago. He can't say it was taken recently. The relationship between these two people seems to be similar to what we guessed.

You said he's in a relationship, so let him be in a relationship. Everyone has an ex or something. Is there any need to be secretive? Hiding things is a sign of a problem. What are you going to do now?"

"Just keep your voice down. I'll be fine as long as I know, and I'll talk to Yuan Yuan tonight!"

After saying that, Jiang Nansun winked at Zhu Suosuo proudly.

"Then why are we waiting for her to come back? Calling Zhang Anren now, isn't he playing both sides?"

Seeing Zhu Suosuo frowning, Jiang Nansun held her back and said, "Don't be impulsive, Suosuo. It doesn't necessarily mean he's playing both sides. It might just be that Yuan Yuan wants to use him as a springboard.

However, Zhang Anren did lie to me after all, so I don’t plan to question him now, because I want to deal with Yuan Yuan first! "

Hearing this, Zhu Suosuo looked at Jiang Nansun in surprise and said, "In this respect, you and your mother are really similar. You usually look very innocent, but once you encounter something, you will find that you are prepared both intellectually and physically."

At this point, Zhu Suosuo suddenly thought of something, looked at her curiously, and continued to ask: "But Nansun, where did you find this photo?"

Jiang Nansun looked at her calmly and replied, "A college classmate of mine and Zhang Anren's asked for it. I told him we were getting married and wanted to use the photos from that time to make a VCR."

Zhu Suosuo was stunned when she heard this answer, and couldn't help but said in surprise: "No, what kind of imagination does this Zhang Anren's college classmate have? Does he have a conflict with Zhang Anren? Otherwise, why would he send such a photo to you? It's unbelievable."

Jiang Nansun smiled and said, "I'm not stupid, so of course I won't ask for it in my name. I'll say I'm Yuan Yuan.

Because Zhang Anren happened to be a graduate student when he and I were dating, his college classmates thought his girlfriend was still Yuan Yuan, because they were very close back then, and when they knew we were going to make a short film, of course they sent it to me.

After hearing this, Zhu Suosuo had a deeper understanding of Jiang Nansun. She finally knew where this photo came from, so she couldn't help but ask:

"Then how do you plan to deal with this Yuan Yuan?"

"I'm still thinking about it. Let's wait until I finish talking to Yuan Yuan tonight to see what her real purpose is. If she just wants to gain a foothold in the Magic City, then it's easy to deal with. At worst, I can give her some money and ask her to leave Zhang Anren."

Zhu Suosuo looked at Jiang Nansun's expression and the solution, and said worriedly: "Will this not make her push her too far? Otherwise, I'd better ask Brother Han, he must have a good idea!"

"Don't do that yet. It's so embarrassing to ask Han Tao about this. I'd better think of a solution myself. If all else fails, I'll ask him for help!"

"Okay, then don't try to be so arrogant. This world isn't as simple as you think. There are many things that you and I haven't encountered before."

"Okay, I get it, Suosuo. We'll talk later!"

When Zhu Suosuo saw Jiang Nansun winking at her, she understood and decided not to discuss this topic anymore. Sure enough, Yuan Yuan came over with coffee and cake.

However, Zhu Suosuo has decided to send a message to Han Tao to ask for a solution to this problem. She is really afraid that Jiang Nansun will suffer.

After all, Jiang Nansun has been spoiled since she was a child, so she naturally doesn't understand the disguise of human nature, and she is not as good as Zhu Suosuo in understanding human nature. Nansun's original family made her very generous in dealing with people. When dealing with Zhang A'ren's ex-girlfriend Yuan Yuan, the problem could obviously be resolved directly, but Nansun wanted to use the method of "convincing people with virtue" and planned to pay for Yuan Yuan to stay in Shanghai.

Zhu Suosuo is the complete opposite. Living under the care of others since childhood has taught her to think about human nature and how to solve the problems she encounters.

Chapter 305 Preparing to Return to Jingzhou

At seven o'clock on Monday morning, Han Tao came back from running with Andy and saw Guan Juer at the door of his house. She was wearing a white shirt and overalls. It seemed that she was waiting for him.

Han Tao opened the door and invited her in, then asked, "Guan Guan, why didn't you go jogging today? Is there something wrong?"

"Brother Han, it's because of Yingying. She and Sister Andy are having a conflict..."

Guan Juer followed Han Tao into the house and told him what happened on the 22nd floor last night, then asked in embarrassment:

"So I argued with Yingying about this yesterday, but this morning she said something to me again, saying I couldn't ride in Andy's car, or I wouldn't be her best friend anymore. I got so angry I ran out. She's so unreasonable!"

After she finished saying what she wanted to say, Han Tao remembered that there was no such plot in the original story. It was because Qiu Yingying felt looked down upon, so she blocked Andy's door and demanded an explanation.

I originally thought that with the help of this butterfly, the plot would completely change its direction, but I didn’t expect that its correction ability was so strong.

Thinking of this, Han Tao helped Guan Juer analyze the situation while washing up: "I think Andy probably didn't mean it. Her starting point was definitely for Xiao Qiu's good, but the way she expressed it might have irritated her.

But you should not get involved in this matter, just do your best, because Xiao Qiu's request to you is moral kidnapping. If you compromise this time, she will do the same next time. Do you have to listen to her every time?

This also applies to your work. You must have good judgment and learn to say no. You can't be a pushover, because being a pushover only hurts you, and no one likes or respects you.

Having said that, Han Tao wiped his face clean, walked to the kitchen and started to boil water to cook wontons, then turned around and said from time to time:

"Whether it's between two friends, a boss, or a client, the worst thing to do is waver. If you follow Xiao Qiu's idea, Andy, who's so smart, will see through it immediately."

Guan Juer's confused feeling suddenly cleared up after hearing this, and she said happily:

"Thank you, Brother Han. I know what to do. I'll go downstairs and find Sister Andy now."

"Don't worry, you can make an appointment with Andy. She just went back. Have breakfast with me before you leave. The shepherd's purse wontons will be ready soon."

After saying that, Han Tao tore the seaweed into pieces and put it into the bowl, then added dried shrimps and chopped preserved vegetables, and then put the wontons in and handed it to Guan Juer.

"Thank you, Brother Han. I didn't expect the wontons he made would be so delicious. They look so appetizing."

Guan Juer looked at the delicious breakfast and couldn't help but praise it. She really didn't expect that Han Tao could cook.

"Home-cooked meals are fine, and the wontons are ready-made. I just cooked them."

As he spoke, Han Tao brought another bowl to the table. The two sat opposite each other and ate this simple breakfast together.

During this time, Guan Juer suddenly asked, "By the way, Brother Han, what do you think of books like success studies? Are they really useful?"

Seeing her ask this, Han Tao smiled and said, "It's both useful and useless. The usefulness lies in inspiring the confidence of those in need.

The reason why it is useless is very simple, because it is difficult to replicate anyone's success. Although you can learn and draw lessons from the experiences of successful people, everyone's life trajectory is different. No matter how powerful the truth is, it may not be useful in your hands.

The most important thing is that many of the so-called success theories on the market are misleading, and the cases above are completely illogical.

For example, Bill Gates is often cited as a prime example. Many success stories introduce him by telling you how hardworking and ambitious he was, how his mother quit her job to provide him with companionship and guidance, and how he ultimately founded Microsoft and made his first fortune before graduating.

Hearing Han Tao say this, Guan Juer asked in confusion: "Brother Han, is there something wrong with this?"

“It’s not that it’s wrong, but these stories only tell people about his path to success, but not the things behind his success, such as his father being a famous American lawyer and the owner of the largest local law firm.

Bill Gates' mother was also the president of United Way International, a director of the University of Washington, a director of a bank, and the president of IBM, and his grandfather was a bank president.

"The story of Warren Buffett, the stock god, is also very inspiring, but who knew that his father was a member of the U.S. Congress? When he went to the New York Stock Exchange at the age of eight, was he received by his father, a congressman, and a Goldman Sachs director?"

"So, according to you, Brother Han, these inspirational stories of great figures are all fake?"

Guan Juer was stunned. She never expected that the inspirational stories she and her classmates had listened to for so many years were all made up. It turned out that people didn't win at the starting line, but directly won in their mother's womb.

Han Tao checked the time and said with a smile, "I can't say it's fake. It's mainly to tell you that success isn't as simple as hard work or reading success stories. Without the support of a family, it's not easy for them to succeed.

Of course, their success is inseparable from their own efforts and abilities, after all, most of the second generation are the ones who squander their fortunes.”

"I know, thank you, Brother Han!"

Guan Juer nodded, took the initiative to wash the dishes, and then hurried downstairs to the underground garage to wait for Andy.

………………

After Guan Juer left, Han Tao also began to arrange his own work. Jingzhou is not particularly far from Shanghai, and it is convenient to get there by plane or high-speed rail.

However, in order to save time, Han Tao asked Wendy to book a flight in advance, and also booked Chen Xi and Lin Fangfang's flights at the same time.

However, before leaving, Han Tao made a special call to Brother Donglai over there.

After a while, the call was connected, and hearty and enthusiastic laughter came from the other end. After the two exchanged greetings, Han Tao told the other party straight away what he needed help with. After getting the answer he expected, the two chatted about personal matters for a while and then hung up the phone.

Then Han Tao called Senior Qi and Teacher Gao separately, and talked with Senior Qi for more than half an hour, and the same was true for Teacher Gao.

Since he has decided to wade into this muddy water, he should make some preparations early. With the things provided by Wendy, this case will not be difficult to handle. He also has confidence in Senior Brother Qi. A smart person will weigh the pros and cons.

However, since this is the second time I have confronted the young master of the Zhao family, I cannot go back in vain. Before the future turmoil comes, I have to persuade Teacher Gao and the senior student to take advantage of this opportunity to make them realize that the Zhao family has no bottom line.

However, before doing these, he must be prepared. Although the old man of the Zhao family has retired for a long time and it is now Mr. Liu, who is about to retire, who is in charge of the work in Handong, the Zhao family's influence in Handong is not small at all.

Moreover, the young master of the Zhao family is a spoiled idiot, otherwise in the original plot, Senior Chen would not have been hit by someone and almost turned into a vegetable at the beginning.

You have to know who Chen Hai is. His father, Old Chen, is a veteran soldier. So the Zhao family is definitely behind Chen's affairs. After all, Gao Xiaoqin was the first handle the Zhao family placed on Qi, so he had no choice but to admit it.
