The world of film and television begins from childhood

Yang Huajian smiled and said, "No problem. I don't know you yet. You definitely don't want to do such a troublesome thing."

The four of them stayed in the private room for a while before leaving.

Two days later, Zhou Chen received the information compiled by Yang Huajian. It can be seen that Yang Huajian put a lot of thought into it and the information he sent was very detailed.

In addition to the information, Yang Huajian also informed him of the time for the educated youth gathering, which was scheduled for next Saturday.

It has to be said that Yang Huajian's ability in organizing these activities is definitely the best among all the educated youth. It is estimated that no one else has the same appeal as him.

Zhou Chen spent a day carefully studying the detailed information about the land that Yang Huajian mentioned.

It is indeed a treasure trove as Yang Huajian said, but after studying it, he felt that Yang Huajian's thinking was a bit too simple. Land development of this scale is unlikely to be handed over to one party. If he is not mistaken, the final result may be joint development by multiple parties.

If this is the case, it will be very troublesome. He is not opposed to cooperating with others, but he has a habit. Even if it is cooperation, he must take the majority and have absolute say.

But if he were to develop this land, he would definitely not be able to obtain such power, so he already had a plan in mind.

A week passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the day for the educated youth reunion.

On Saturday night, Yang Huajian, who was very wealthy, booked the restaurant for the whole night. Tonight, apart from the gathering of educated youth, there were no other guests.

One after another, educated youth came to the restaurant and greeted their old friends and classmates, making the restaurant hall very lively.

Compared to a decade ago, everyone has changed dramatically.

Those who had joined the countryside to work were all intellectuals with some culture. When we last got together, they had only been back in the city for two years, and most of them were not doing very well.

But now, more than ten years later, everyone who comes to the party dresses up neatly and looks bright and presentable.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just the parking lot outside the restaurant, there were twenty or thirty cars parked, all of which were driven here by everyone.

As the organizer, Yang Huajian was naturally the most active person. He kept greeting everyone and then arranged for everyone to sit down.

However, this gathering was obviously very different from the last gathering of educated youth. In the past, everyone just found a seat and sat down.

But this time, many people found a place to sit down with a purpose, and everyone's smiles contained many different meanings.

Zhou Chen did the same as he did at the last gathering of educated youth. He drove over when he saw that it was almost time.

Seven years have passed, and he still drives the same Crown.

I have to admit that the performance of this car is really good. After driving it for so many years, there are still no problems in its operation.

As soon as I walked into the hall, Yang Huajian came to greet me.

"Zhou Chen, you always come last, just like your brother-in-law Han Chunming. By the way, Han Chunming hasn't come yet. What's going on with him?"

Zhou Chen said: "How would I know what his situation is? How is it? Are most people here? When can we start?"

Yang Huajian said, "No, there are still a few people who haven't arrived yet. You go and sit first. It's the table in front of the stage. Mao Tutu and Lu Hong are all there."

Zhou Chen walked to the table and found that several people were already sitting at the table, Mao Ditu, Lu Hong, Wu Tianhua, Su Meng, Wang...

"Hey, isn't this Professor Zhou? You're finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Lu Hong, who hadn't seen Zhou Chen for a long time, was very enthusiastic when he saw Zhou Chen. He did not go into business, but chose a career in politics. He now has a high level and is an official in a nearby city.

Zhou Chen shook hands with Lu Hong and said, "I'm just a teacher, I can't compare with you. You're so busy, did you take a day off to come here today?"

"Yes, of course I have to attend such a big event as the educated youth gathering. I also want to thank you for helping me with my sister's matter last time. I said I would invite you for a drink, but I never had time. I'm so sorry."

Zhou Chen said nonchalantly: "It's a small matter. We are so familiar with each other. Don't take it to heart. When I am transferred back to Yanjing, I will treat you."

"That won't work. Chinese New Year is only a few months away. When I come back this time, we have to get together no matter what."

Although Lu Hong was an official, he did not speak in an official tone in such occasions. Moreover, he was indeed very grateful to Zhou Chen.

A few years ago, when Lu Hong's sister was studying at Peking University, she failed her professional courses. In the end, it was Zhou Chen who helped her find a teacher to tutor her, so that she did not fail.

In addition, when Lu Hong's sister encountered trouble at school, she always asked Zhou Chen for help.

Although the matter was not a big deal, Lu Hong always kept it in mind.

Zhou Chen greeted the people around him one by one, but his attitude was not so enthusiastic. Finally, he sat down next to Mao Map, and next to him was Wu Tianhua.

As soon as he sat down, Wu Tianhua couldn't wait to ask: "Zhou Chen, how is your research on that piece of land going?"

When Mao Tutu heard Wu Tianhua talking about this, he became excited and came over.

"Yes, Zhou Chen, you have been studying it for several days. How is it going? Can you do it?"

Under the expectant gaze of the two, Zhou Chen slowly said: "I have studied it, but let's wait until the party is over and find a time to talk about it. It's not very convenient here."

"Too."

Wu Tianhua did not object. This was indeed not the place to discuss this matter.

Cheng Jianjun, who was not far from Zhou Chen and the other two, heard them talking. Although he didn't hear the details, he felt that the three of them must be discussing something big, so he couldn't help but feel curious.

But he also knew that Zhou Chen and the other two didn't have a good impression of him, so he didn't ask any more questions.

After a while, almost everyone had arrived, with only a few people left. Seeing that the time was almost up, Yang Huajian no longer waited and took the initiative to go on stage.

"Good evening, dear friends, dear brothers and sisters."

"Wait, Yang Huajian, you are wrong. The popular trend now is, ladies and gentlemen."

Suddenly someone interrupted Yang Huajian's rhythm and shouted loudly, and even said something in English at the end, which immediately caused everyone to laugh happily.

Yang Huajian was a very capable host and responded with a smile: "Well, ladies and gentlemen, we have gathered everyone together this time to hold a gathering of our classmates and educated youth. For our first agenda, I would like to invite Mao Tutu to introduce everyone present."

Mao Tutu stood up with a smile on his face, waved to everyone, and walked to the microphone on the stage.

But before he could start introducing himself, someone suddenly started to make a noise and shout.

"Hey, Mao Tutu, do you still draw maps before you go to sleep at night?"

Amid the laughter, Mao Tutu scolded, "After all these years, why are you still exposing my shortcomings?"

Although he is now a big boss with a net worth of over tens of millions, his personality has not changed much. Instead, he has become more generous and decent.

"I have stopped drawing maps a long time ago, but my son has inherited my glorious tradition and draws circles at home every day."

After a few jokes, Mao Map's expression turned serious.

"Next, let me introduce to you the students who are here today."

As he spoke, his hand first pointed towards Zhou Chen's table. Originally, he was pointing at Zhou Chen, but the quick-witted Zhou Chen immediately shook his head at him.

The two of them have been working together for many years, and he immediately understood that Zhou Chen did not want to be in the spotlight, so he changed direction and pointed to Yang Huajian.

"First, Yang Huajian, Chairman of Jiannan Enterprise Group."

Amidst the applause, Yang Huajian stood up and bowed to everyone with a smile on his face.

But there are also many people who are disdainful in their hearts. Once this link comes out, who doesn’t understand what it means?

It’s okay for those who don’t care about fame and fortune, but some people who care about fame and fortune but are not doing well are naturally full of contempt and dissatisfaction towards this link.

Mao Tutu then introduced: "Wu Tianhua, general manager of Zhenchuan Real Estate Co., Ltd."

"Su Meng, Executive Director of Kaiyuan Real Estate Development Co., Ltd."

Su Meng stood up with a smile on her face. Such an introduction greatly satisfied her vanity.

But someone was not happy and shouted: "She didn't cut in line."

Mao Tutu was about to explain, but Yang Huajian stood up first and explained: "Didn't I just say that today is a big gathering of classmates and educated youth, and we stewed radishes and cabbages together."

Now that things have come to this, it is natural that others will not object any further.

However, Cheng Jianjun, who was sitting at the same table with Zhou Chen and the others, looked at the smug Su Meng with a curled mouth and his eyes full of jealousy.

Originally, he thought that as a section chief in the tax bureau, he was doing well among the educated youth, but the introductions of three people just now directly hit him hard.

Look at his introduction, he is the chairman, general manager, and executive director.

Look at him again, a small section chief.

At this moment, he was really jealous, and at the same time he wanted to sew Mao Map's mouth shut and stop him from introducing any more, because if he introduced two more, he would be the last one to be introduced.

Looking at their table, the only person he can compare with is Zhou Chen. But Zhou Chen is a professor at Peking University after all, his elders in the family are powerful, and his sister is a big boss. His background is much stronger than his.

It was not known whether his prayers had worked, but just as Mao Map was about to continue his introduction, a man suddenly walked in from the hall door.

"Hey, everyone, look who's here."

Han Chunming, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, holding a black leather bag, walked in with a nonchalant gait.

"Han Chunming, you're late again."

Han Chunming said to everyone, "I'm late today, but you can't punish me. Look who I invited."

Then they saw an old man in his fifties or sixties walking towards them. It was Yang Shuji who had worked with them when they first joined the team.

As soon as they saw Yang Shuji, everyone greeted him enthusiastically, and Han Chunming also reintroduced Yang Shuji to everyone at the right time.

Not only was Yang Shuji promoted to a higher position, he also became the chairman of Xiaoqinghe Agriculture, Industry and Commerce Corporation.

Amid the booing and cheers of the crowd, Yang Shuji walked onto the stage, delivered a speech, and then called on everyone to invest in their Xiaoqinghe.

Yang Shuji's sudden appearance disrupted Yang Huajian and the others' original plan. Mao Ditu did not make any further introductions, but instead notified the waiter to start the meal.

During the meal, Yang Shuji asked Zhou Chen with a smile: "On the way here, I heard Chunming say that you and he are now a family."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "What other bad things did he say to you about me?"

Yang Shuji laughed and said, "I didn't say anything bad about you. Instead, I praised you a lot, saying that you are very capable now and have become a professor at Peking University. You really have a promising future."

"I'm just a teacher. Compared to those big bosses, I'm far behind."

"Hey, hey, Zhou Chen, you are insulting me. How can we be considered as big bosses in front of you?"

Yang Huajian glared at Zhou Chen. Others might not know Zhou Chen’s background, but how could he not know it?

Yang Shuji said with emotion: "Great, seeing that each of you is so successful now, I am very happy, really."

Although these educated youth were not from Xiaoqinghe, he had stayed with them for three years and often dealt with them, so there was still some affection between them.

Halfway through the dinner, some people started performing on stage and some started dancing in the hall.

"Zhou Chen, Su Meng, at the last gathering, one of you played the piano and the other sang, and you worked very well together. It's been more than ten years, how about you do it again?"

"That's right, Zhou Chen, Su Meng, let's sing a song and reminisce about the past."

"Everyone applauds."

The cheering from the crowd satisfied Su Meng's vanity greatly. She responded to everyone with a smile and walked onto the stage.

But Zhou Chen did not stand up. Instead, he said to Han Chunming, who was two seats away, "If your sister knew that I played the piano and sang with another woman, she might be suspicious of me. You go for me."

The first half of Zhou Chen's sentence made people laugh, but the second half made everyone confused.

Lu Hong couldn't help but say, "Zhou Chen, Han Chunming is your brother-in-law now, do you still want to cheat him?"

Yang Huajian smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. Zhou Chen is a great pianist. Maybe Han Chunming secretly became his disciple and learned the skills."

Han Chunming smiled and said, "Everyone wants you to go up. If you let me go up, isn't that going against public opinion?"

"I created you and you can do it, but you still complain and refuse to do it. Are you going to do it or not?"

Zhou Chen's eyes widened, and Han Chunming immediately stood up with a smile: "Go, can't I go?"

When Han Chunming walked to Su Meng's side, Su Meng asked worriedly: "Can you do it?"

Han Chunming winked at her teasingly: "Don't you know whether I can do it or not?"

"Get lost." Su Meng glared at him in shame and anger, but she didn't dare to do anything in public.

A minute later, pleasant piano music and beautiful singing slowly rang out in the hall.

"Oh, sure, Zhou Chen, Han Chunming really wants to take you as his master?"

Everyone at the table looked at Zhou Chen. The scene of Zhou Chen playing the piano that year left such a deep impression on them that they have not forgotten it to this day.

So when I saw Han Chunming could play the piano easily, the first thing I thought of was that it was related to Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen said: "I can't help it. This kid insisted on learning the piano from me. What else can I do?"

"There's really nothing I can do about it. You have a good sister who's always whispering in your ear, right?"

"Hahaha……"

The only one at the table who didn't smile was Cheng Jianjun. Everyone else could remember the scene of that year, and as the person involved, he naturally would not forget it.

That scene back then made him lose face in front of many of his classmates and the educated youth. How could he forget it?

Hence, his gaze towards Han Chunming and Zhou Chen became extremely vicious.
