After finishing the phone call with Luo Xuan, Chen Hansheng stood in the corridor in a daze. Technical engineers and subordinate executives kept passing by. They greeted politely, and Chen Hansheng responded mechanically.
The love of a junior sister is like a hedgehog. Even Chen Hansheng is often pricked by it and feels bored in his heart. But when Luo Xuan took the initiative to leave, she suddenly discovered that The place where it was pricked has already formed a layer of calluses.
In fact, without these "thorns", it would feel a bit empty and unaccustomed.
After calming down his thoughts for a while, Chen Hansheng returned to the R&D center.
Everyone in the R&D center has a smile on their face. After all, the performance and appearance of the third-generation mobile phone are so good. It is very possible for Guoke to catch up with the domestic market share of Nokia and Motorola with this product. No matter how bad it is, it will always be able to narrow the gap.
However, seeing Chen Hansheng's dull expression and a hint of melancholy between his brows, everyone couldn't help but become serious.
Chen Hansheng is the boss, and his emotions can naturally affect the group atmosphere.
Noticing this subtle change among his colleagues, Chen Hansheng did not explain it. He still listened to Li Xiaokai's explanation of the various functions of "Guo 3" with his hands folded.
"What's going on?"
Sister Kong Yu glanced at Nie Xiaoyu with confusion in her eyes.
"I don't know."
Nie Xiaoyu shook her head. She didn't know what was going on, but based on her understanding of Minister Chen over the years, the secretary judged that the call just now should be A certain girl called.
"Youchu is still a little Yu'er, but Youchu is so gentle and won't quarrel. For Xiao Yu'er, it's still midnight in the United States..."
< p>The little secretary started to get distracted again.“Ding~”
Not long after, another text message came to Chen Hansheng’s phone.
The sound is not loud, but it is harsh enough.
Because except for Chen Hansheng, everyone else’s mobile phones were set to silent. Even if there were business calls that had to be handled, they would cover their mouths and hurried outside to deal with them.
Chen Hansheng looked down at the text message. Li Xiaokai also deliberately slowed down his explanation. He was waiting for the big boss.
The text message was sent by Luo Xuan. She said: "Senior Brother Chen, I suddenly remembered that if I go to Hong Kong in the future, we will be in a different place again.
" Ta-ta-ta~ ”
Chen Hansheng replied to the text message as if no one was watching.
Chen Hansheng: Hong Kong is not far away. Besides, I often go to Hong Kong for work reasons.
Luo Xuan: Oh.
The junior sister’s “oh” meant that she was still in a very low mood.
Chen Hansheng thought for a while and continued to reply to the message.
Chen Hansheng: Although there is distance in a different place, I have never learned geography or know distance, so there is no need to worry.
Luo Xuan: I am not worried about my feelings, I am worried about yours getting lost.
p>
Chen Hansheng: I have a navigation system.
Luo Xuan: Hum~, my mother called me, you should continue to work. Senior Brother Chen, maybe I will come back sometime and suddenly appear in front of Shen Youchu or Xiao Rongyu. Are you afraid of that?
Chen Hansheng:...... Junior sister.
After Chen Hansheng returned to normal, the most obvious feedback came from his subordinates. The R&D center quickly became lively again, sweeping away the depression just now.
"The person who sent the message should also be a certain girl, but who is it this time?"
The little secretary made a random guess.
Cui Zhifeng, the head of the sales department, had been silent just now. Now the big boss was chatting and laughing again. He also said jokingly: "Director Chen, regarding this blue and white blue mobile phone, I suddenly remembered something."
The third-generation Guoke comes in five colors. In addition to the classic black and white model, there are also bright pink, lilac and blue and white. The blue and white model is currently the most unique.
Perhaps the blue and white color is in line with the Chinese people’s aesthetics. Its overall tone is clear and elegant, revealing a kind of careless calmness and elegance. Coupled with the side-by-side lotus on the back of the mobile phone, there are only a few strokes. It outlines the charm of Chinese style.
It is like the ink landscapes of Jiangnan, with smoke and mist, elegant and romantic.
"Last week I discussed the commercial shooting plan with Jay Chou's company."
Cui Zhifeng continued: "I heard that his new album will be released in November this year. I was very worried at that time. I was curious and asked if I could let my ears enjoy it first.”
The image spokespersons of Guoke Electronics are all popular music superstars, such as Jay Chou, Mayday, and JJ Lin. Of course, this is also consistent with Chen Hansheng’s preference. It has a lot to do with it. After all, everyone knows that Director Chen is a fan of Jay Chou.
So when it comes to endorsement fees, Guoke is relatively generous and does not impose any messy rules on its endorsers, so the relationship between the two parties is very harmonious.
"Did they agree?"
Chen Hansheng probably would not refuse.
"Agreed."
Cui Zhifeng said with a smile: "I remember there is a song in this album called "Blue and White Porcelain". From the melody to the lyrics, it fits this song very well. The artistic conception of the mobile phone seems to have been specially created for us..."
Old Cui recalled it as an interesting thing, but Chen Hansheng was very surprised.
"Holy shit, is "Blue and White Porcelain" from 2007?"
"Why do you think it's a song from 2017?"
"Yes Not all classic songs have such special features. They have been sung for many years, but no matter when they sound, they always have a freshness that never goes out of style.”
······
"Old Cui."
Chen Hansheng thought for a moment and suddenly said: "You and Jay can talk about whether the song "Blue and White Porcelain" can be released in advance. I want to cooperate with the promotion of the third generation of mobile phones. Of course, this will definitely disrupt other people's plans, so the compensation It is indispensable, and you have full authority to negotiate this."
"As for the scope of compensation..."
Chen Hansheng pondered for a while and raised a finger.
This means 10 million, and the executives in the R&D center exclaimed.
10 million is not much for Guoke nowadays. Last year, Chen Hansheng could spend 200 million to buy a private jet. This year, Guoke Network is going to be listed. 10 million is nothing.
However, Jay Chou's three-year endorsement fee is only 12 million. This price is transparent, and all his previous songs can be used at will.
Is it worth spending 10 million for a new song that has not been released yet?
"Uh..."
Cui Zhifeng himself was a little dazed. He just said it casually, why was the big boss so impulsive?
"Xiaoyu."
Sister Kong Yu also asked Nie Xiaoyu: "You are also a fan of Jay Chou, have you heard about "Blue and White Porcelain"?"
"No. "
Nie Xiaoyu shook his head: "But judging from the name, it should be similar to "Dongfeng Po" and "Chrysanthemum Terrace". "
Since " After "East Wind Breaks", Chinese-style songs suddenly became more popular in the past two years, and became widely popular among teenagers and college students. These people also happen to be the main consumers of emerging electronic products.
From this point of view, Chen Hansheng's decision is not wrong. Using Jay Chou's new song "Blue and White Porcelain" to promote Guoke Electronics' new blue and white mobile phone will definitely have an explosive effect.
"Dr. Chen, why don't you just listen to that song and then make a decision."
It is Cui Zhifeng who is more nervous. He brought up this matter, just in case. If something goes wrong, even though it is the big boss who makes the decision, he must be the one who takes the blame.
"No need."
Chen Hansheng grinned: "I believe in Director Cui's vision."
In the internal management meeting on June 16 We decided on two things:
First, everyone is very satisfied with the prototype of "Fruit 3" and it can enter the mass production process;
Second, we need to find a way to promote Jay Chou's song "Blue and White Porcelain" was released in advance and used in the promotional vlog of "Fruit 3".
It is foreseeable that from today until the day when the mobile phone is released, Guoke Electronics Factory will have sleepless nights again.
·······
Cui Zhifeng acted quickly. He had the results three days later and hurriedly came to Chen Hansheng's office to report.
"Jaylen's company responded and agreed to release "Blue and White Porcelain" from the new album first, and also authorized it to usUse it, and..."
Lao Cui paused and continued: "And they didn't ask for compensation. "
"Why? "
Chen Hansheng asked.
"They said there are two reasons. "
Cui Zhifeng explained: "First of all, "Blue and White Porcelain" is not the title song, and I didn't expect that we would like it; secondly, it is equivalent to promoting the new album through the third generation of Guoke mobile phone. If you think about it carefully, , should almost cancel each other out. "
Chen Hansheng felt very comfortable after hearing this. This is the attitude of long-term cooperation.
However, he has never been stingy in doing things. He said directly: "These are polite words from others. They don't want it." , but we can’t not give it. Or 10 million. In addition to the right to use "Blue and White Porcelain", I also bought the exclusive premiere rights of Guoke Cloud for the album "I'm Very Busy". ”
“That’s almost reasonable. "
Cui Zhifeng nodded and said, but he still had a question: "Dr. Chen, how did you know that the name of Jay Chou's new album is "I'm Very Busy"? "
"Well..."
Chen Hansheng raised his head and said seriously: "I have my own information channels. If I hadn't founded Guoke Electronics back then, I broke into the entertainment industry with my talent and good looks. "
"Hoho~"
Old Cui laughed twice, said goodbye and left.
Chen Hansheng sat in silence for a while, and then happily hummed "Heaven" The blue color is waiting for mist and rain, but I am waiting for you, the smoke is rising, thousands of miles across the river..." The song leaves the office.
Today is June 19th, Xiao Xiaoyuer On his 9th birthday, Chen Hansheng naturally put down all his work and went to accompany him.
······
There were really a lot of people on Shen Youchu’s side, including Chen Zijin’s grandfather and Chen Zijin. Grandpa has come from Hong Kong City, plus Uncle Zibo and Aunt Shishi, as well as aunt Chen Lan who skipped school, the living room seems crowded again.
But this is probably Chen Zijin in the building. It's his last birthday and he will be moving to the villa in two days.
Lao Chen and the others were sitting on the sofa chatting, but the corner of their eyes was always on the baby.
Chen. Lan sat with Xiao Yu'er in the playpen. Nine-month-old Chen Zijin could already sit up straight. She was playing with Lego blocks attentively, often saying to herself "Oh~oh~oh~" "Muttered.
The speech is unclear, and adults don't know what the baby wants to express.
However, Chen Lan is very naughty and often snatches toys away from Chen Zijin's hands. Let's go. Xiao Xiaoyu'er then raised his head and glared at his aunt, stretching out his little arms to snatch the toy back.
At this time, grandma Lu Yuqing said distressedly: "Alan, give the toy back. Well, otherwise she will cause trouble again soon. "
"No. "
Chen Lan said with a smile: "My brother used to tease me like this, he had to make me cry.Xing, now I want to take revenge on his daughter. "
"This girl..."
Neither Chen Zhaojun nor Xiao Hongwei took it seriously. Chen Hansheng arrived not long after. He first met his father-in-law, mother-in-law, and Old Chen said hello: "Dad, Mom. "
Chen Zhaojun said "Hmm", there is no need to be too polite between father and son;
But Lao Xiao just nodded, not knowing that he was responding to Chen Hansheng's call. Or maybe it was just an unconscious nod.
As expected, Xiao Yu'er's arrogance is actually hereditary.
Only mother-in-law Lu Yuqing said honestly: "Han Sheng is here. ”
“Ang. < /p>
But Xiao Xiaoyuer was very disgusted. After being picked up by Chen Hansheng, not only did she not call her "Daddy", her little head kept shaking from side to side, eager to play with blocks.
< p>In fact, Xiao Yu'er is now the most proficient in calling her "mom and aunt", and occasionally calls her "dad" when she is happy. As for complex names such as "grandparents, grandma and grandpa", she still doesn't know how to call them."Han Sheng.
Lv Yuqing looked at her granddaughter dotingly and said, "I just heard Xiao Hu and Shishi talking about the infringement lawsuit against the milk tea shop. Do you know about this?" "
"Is there such a thing? ”
Chen Hansheng said in astonishment: “I basically don’t care about the operation of the milk tea shop. In addition, there have been many problems with the third generation of Guoke mobile phones recently, so I don’t have much time. However, the other party is so obviously plagiarizing. Can he actually win the lawsuit? ”
In fact, this sentence is half true and half false. Chen Hansheng does not interfere much in the daily operations of the milk tea shop, but he knows about the situation of losing the lawsuit.
Because “Meet the Milk Tea Shop” originated from Jiangling District University Town, so the first instance was in the Jiangling District Court.
Before the verdict came out, the court specially called to inquire, saying that the legal representative of "Meet Milk Tea Shop" Shen Youchu and the company manager Hu Linyu. , they are also graduates of Jianye University of Finance and Economics. I don’t know if Director Chen knows them.
Chen Hansheng directly excused them by saying "I know them but they are not familiar with them" because he needed a defeat in order to get Xiao Rongyu. I got involved during the second trial.
In the end, the boss of the "Meet You Milk Tea Shop" also had some background, so it was ultimately determined that they did not constitute infringement.
What should I say about this wave? The opponent seemed to have won, but in fact he did not win, because Chen Hansheng looked down from the atmosphere.
"Hansheng, you can't just care about your own one-third of an acre. . "
Lv Yuqing didn't know about this situation and even educated him: "We don't advocate using relationships to solve problems, but we can't stand it when we are treated unfairly. ”
"Mom, you are right, let me ask Shen Youchu."
Chen Hansheng agreed respectfully, and then walked to the kitchen with Xiao Yu'er in his arms.
After he left, Lao Xiao frowned and said to Lu Yuqing: "Why are you telling him this?"
"I asked Han Sheng to pay more attention to the situation around him. What's wrong?"
Lv Yuqing didn't react for a while.
"What I mean is..."
Director Xiao said calmly: "Does Chen Hansheng still need you to teach him this? How can he start a business honestly? Do you really think your son-in-law is such a good person?"
"Uh..."
Lu Yuqing thought for a while and actually agreed: "That's right. , that’s why I’m worrying too much.”
“Ahem~”
Chen Zhaojun coughed twice in embarrassment. He knew that Xiao Hongwei felt sorry for Xiao Yuer and had great feelings for Chen Hansheng. Complaints and some cynicism have to be endured.
·······
The kitchen of the apartment is more crowded because there are more people here.
Shen Youchu, Bian Shishi, Hu Linyu, and Dong'er were picking vegetables and discussing the failed lawsuit. Wang Zibo was next to Bian Shishi.
In fact, Bian Shishi used to be the vanguard general of the "Little Fish Party". He once stood up for Xiao Rongyu and even had a dispute with Hu Linyu.
Now because of Chen Zijin's existence, she is like a link of communication, which not only eliminates the conflict between Shen Youchu and Xiao Rongyu, but also allows Lu Yuqing to no longer complain about Shen Youchu, and at the same time allows Bian Shishi and "Shen Dang "A good communication relationship has been established between them.
So the operation of "changing children" does cause a lot of damage in the early stage, but it can really solve the problem.
After Chen Hansheng came in, only Dong'er among the female compatriots weakly called "Brother Chen". Hu Linyu and Bian Shishi ignored him. They just teased Chen Zijin: "Baby, why are you here?" Come on, do you want to help aunt cook..."
Xiao Xiaoyu'er can recognize people now. She knows that there are familiar faces here, especially there is "mom" here. .
"Oh~"
Chen Zijin was very tired of Shen Youchu, and immediately stretched out his little arms, as if a baby bird was about to fly into its mother's arms.
Shen Youchu did not speak to Chen Hansheng, but he washed his hands, dried them and took Chen Zijin over.
"Oh!"
The baby was in Shen Youchu's arms, with a happy and stable smile on his little face.
Chen Zijin has a lively personality, and his smile is sweet and sweet. Bian Shishi quickly took out her mobile phone, filmed the scene and sent it to Xiao Rongyu.
After Chen Hansheng successfully integrated into the kitchen environment with the help of his lovely daughter, he asked: "I heard that the lawsuit was lost. What was the reason?"
"Also What could be the reason?"
I hate to mention this.Ruqiu's Xiao Hu was very unhappy: "The other party has something to do with it, but it was actually ruled that they did not plagiarize or infringe. It's really funny!"
"It's so disgusting!"
Chen Hansheng was also angry Expressing incomprehension, he turned to look at Bian Shishi: "Barrister Bian, this is the first time your law firm has lost a case."
"Ah..." ··We don’t have an agent yet.”
Bian Shishi was stunned for a moment: “Because this case is too simple, Xiao Yuer and I just explained the main points, and the law firm did not follow up. I didn't expect that I would lose the case in the end."
"Then you should act quickly."
Chen Hansheng said carefully to Bian Shishi: "If you lose the case in the first instance, you will definitely have to go to the second instance. The second trial is the final verdict, so it must not fail."
"Oh oh..."
Bian Shishi always felt that something was wrong, but. What exactly was wrong, she couldn't tell.
But now that they have such a harmonious relationship, Bian Shishi finally agreed, patted Hu Linyu on the shoulder and said, "Remember to bring me the case file later."
"Okay."
Xiao Hu nodded and said, "We will just follow your usual charging standards."
"What are we talking about?"
Bian Shishi curled her lips, now there is confusion between Chen Zijin and Chen Zipei, how can they make it clear?
During lunch, Xiao Xiaoyuer was also held in the baby chair. She can drink some rice porridge now, so she will occasionally eat on the table, but she only needs a spoonful from Lu Yuqing or Shen Youchu Feed patiently with a spoonful.
Today is her birthday. Shen Youchu bought another small cake as usual. This scene has been repeated three times. Unknowingly, the two babies have been getting along with another "mother" for so long. .
"Dong~dong~dong~"
Xiao Xiaoyuer grabbed the soft plastic knife used to cut the cake and banged it randomly on the table. Lu Yuqing stood by nervously, fearing The granddaughter accidentally poked herself.
"Dad, Mom."
Chen Hansheng suggested: "There are a lot of people today and it's the baby's birthday. Let's have a drink. Zi Bo won't drive for a while and take a taxi." Go to the company."
If Lao Xiao and Chen Hansheng were allowed to drink alone now, he would definitely refuse, but for the sake of his precious granddaughter, Director Xiao agreed.
Halfway through the meal, Chen Hansheng put the bottle in his daughter's hand and asked her to toast to her mother-in-law, grandfather, grandpa, and grandma.
Xiao Xiaoyuer couldn't speak, so Chen Hansheng said on her behalf: "We wish our great-grandmother, grandpa, grandma, and grandpa good health and all the best!"
Actually, my mother-in-law is not Chen Zijin. She is Chen Zipei's great-grandmother, but now that the mothers have been swapped, what will happen if the great-grandmother is replaced?
Old Xiao versus Chen HanSheng was very rude and knew that Chen Hansheng was using Chen Zijin's identity to deliberately flatter and please.
But I have to say that this trick is very effective.
Director Xiao felt so happy when he saw his precious granddaughter toasting him. He drank it in one gulp, as if it was not white wine but nectar from heaven.
"I want it too, I want it too."
Chen Lan also poured herself a drink, touched her niece's bottle and made a "bang" sound A sound. < /p>
The voices at the dinner table paused for a moment. Although Shen Youchu and Chen Zijin now love each other as mother and daughter, and although Shen Youchu takes care of Chen Zijin like a mother, it is always a bit awkward to say it openly, especially in front of Lao Xiao and Lu Yuqing's face.
"The reason why Xiao Chen is so successful is because he can do things that others can't do."
Although this scene is a bit embarrassing, Chen Hansheng is very calm and Wang Zibo I have to sigh secretly.
Shen Youchu was not used to being stared at by so many people, even if they were family and friends. She picked up the glass of water in front of her, touched it gently with her "daughter", and said softly: "Happy birthday, baby. ."
"ma~ma~"
The little fish shouted happily, and then laughed again.
So it is said that children are the best reconciler of the family. When she smiled like this, the embarrassment just now disappeared in an instant, and even Bian Shishi had to clink glasses.
"Pour me some wine."
Bian Shishi said to Wang Zibo, asking him to pour some wine from his own cup.
"Liquor is very spicy."
Wang Zibo suggested: "You should drink like A Lan."
"No."
Bian Shishi raised her chin and said, "I'm not afraid of spicy food."
Wang Zibo couldn't stand Bian Shishi, so he shook his head and calmed down.
No one else was surprised, but Chen Hansheng noticed the clues, because after a relationship between a man and a woman breaks through, they will unconsciously become intimate in their actions.
For example, when eating out, if girls can’t eat anymore, they will ask boys to help them eat;
Or when shopping, girls no longer shy away from boys when buying underwear;
These are small tips for people of the opposite sex to get along with each other. You can claim that the relationship between two people is innocent, but the details will not lie.
When Bian Shishi poured wine from Wang Zibo's cup, Chen Hansheng could basically judge that Fa Xiao and Shishi's classmates should have completed all the procedures.
"Good guy."
Chen Hansheng thought to himself that Wang Zibo was really the winner.
However, I am really happy for him.
"Brother Chicken Neck."
Chen Hansheng raised his cup and said, "Come on, let's go one by one."
"Okay."
Wang Zibo raised his cup without thinking too much.
"But I have something to do in the afternoon."
Chen Hansheng was just like when he was a child twenty years ago, deliberately making things difficult for his best friend: "So I only have one sip, but you have to drink one. Is there any problem?"
"No problem, you have the final say."
Wang Zibo smiled sincerely, as he had for the past twenty years. Tame the little ones and tolerate them.
Of course Chen Hansheng was just talking, he drank a whole glass, then looked at the bright sun outside the window, and suddenly said to himself: "Life will get better soon. ”
Everyone at the table was startled. Everyone had a strong premonition that Xiao Yu’er and Xiao Xiao Bao might be back soon.
