Dressed As a Cannon Fodder Substitute For a Beautiful President - Chapter 110
Shen Zhibing stood there quietly, waiting patiently with Qi Zheng, until she started to communicate with the expert, Shen Zhibing still had no plans to leave. Yu Xinyan didn’t rush her. She and Yun Fei knew about the attitude of old Shen over the years. After finally waiting for Qi Zheng to return to China, she naturally hoped for a turnaround.
Qi Zheng is much more mature than before, and his gestures are more calm and airy. She seems to have become more proactive and knows how to seize every opportunity that she can take advantage of, which is significantly different from the past when she was always on the sidelines in social events.
Shen Zhibing’s mood suddenly improved, the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously, and her face was filled with joy that she had never noticed.
She has been waiting for the day when she will see Qi Zheng again.
She thought she could face it calmly, but found that her heart was not like this. She was still happy and her heart beat faster.
Qi Zheng should have come prepared, she was different from those who had brief conversations with experts. Her face was always rigorous and humble, and she lowered her head slightly to exchange views with the experts.
Then Shen Zhibing saw more complicated expressions on the expert’s face, such as surprise, scrutiny, joy, and then admiration. She can guess without going over and listening carefully. The topic raised by Qi Zheng must have won the hearts of experts.
She has always been able to pierce people’s hearts, and now even more.
In the end, Shen Zhibing didn’t choose to go up and say hello to Qi Zheng. Today might not be the right day for them to officially meet.
After leaving the venue, I accidentally saw Hua Chifeng from Dongming Group, and it seemed that he was waiting for her.
Yu Xinyan hummed lightly, “It’s really sharp-eyed, I guess she saw us at the venue just now.”
Shen Zhibing didn’t react much, and went straight forward and said hello indifferently: “Mr. Hua, hello.”
“Mr. Shen, I made a special trip to wait for you here.”
Shen Zhibing was stunned, but she still pretended not to know: “I don’t know what’s wrong with President Hua?”
Compared with Lian Ao, Hua Chifeng is a bit more capable and personable. It has been several years since he took over the Dongming Group, and the business is doing well. He has been pursuing Shen Zhibing since last year.
“I want to invite you for a late night snack, I wonder if I can have this honor?”
“Sorry, we still have something to do, I appreciate the kindness.”
Shen Zhibing refused simply and directly, which made Hua Chifeng unable to force it any longer. They had eaten several times before because of their business relationship. Although I could feel that President Shen’s attitude was relatively indifferent, he seemed to be extraordinarily tough today.
He was stunned for a moment, still maintaining his demeanor, and did not turn his face for being rejected.
“Then if I want to talk to President Shen about business opportunities in the emotion management industry, are you interested?”
Shen Zhibing returned him with an official smile: “Of course I won’t refuse good business. Then please make an appointment with Yun Fei, and we can talk more.”
After speaking, she and Yu Xinyan bypassed him and drove away.
Hua Chifeng was neither anxious nor annoyed, but found it quite interesting. Shen Zhibing is a rare business woman with both talent and beauty. Although she has gained her position by relying on family resources, it is a recognized fact that she has managed the Shen family better and better.
Others like to marry a bird with a human shape, but Hua Chifeng loves this one that is comparable. A few years ago, I was too busy with my career to think about marriage. Now that I am old, it is time to carefully choose a partner to walk the road of life together.
He thought that Shen Zhibing thought the same way.
Because since last year, the Shen family, who seldom asked about Shen Zhibing’s emotional affairs, even made rumors that they were interested in finding someone for her.
**
Since knowing that Qi Zheng has returned to Haicheng, Shen Zhibing can’t be as calm as before. Although I didn’t take the initiative to interrupt, I couldn’t avoid paying more attention in private.
Qi Zheng returned to China to start her own business for the second time. With her first experience, she is more efficient than before. Before returning to China, she checked all relevant information, and after returning, she started to prepare for a new company.
She still adheres to a low-key style, and the scale of the company she established is not large, and she will not hype up her entrepreneurial experience in the United States to attract attention with a high profile.
“Mr. Shen, this is the relevant information of Xiao Qi’s new company, and a list of some clients she has contacted some time ago.”
Qi Zheng sent Yun Fei a message a few days ago, telling her that she had returned to Haicheng, and that she would invite her to dinner after she was busy for a while.
“The registered capital is only five million?”
Yun Fei nodded: “I think she may not want to be too public.”
Shen Zhibing shook his head: “No, this won’t work.”
“Five million is indeed less, but I think Xiao Qi should have his own plans.”
“The domestic market is different from that of the United States. Compared with the start-up environment, China still values the strength behind it.” But Shen Zhibing did not rashly ask Yun Fei to persuade him. After all, this is Qi Zheng’s own business.
She thought about it: “You continue to pay attention, it is best to inquire about her recent funding situation.”
If it’s not intentional, it’s probably because Qi Zheng doesn’t know enough about the domestic situation. After all, she’s been in the United States for the past few years.
Zhuang Muqing has become famous in the United States in recent years. Her works are very popular among young people, and she also has her own understanding and interpretation of aesthetics. Her arrival caused quite a stir in the cultural circles of Haicheng, and the University of the Arts would not miss this opportunity and held a professional salon for her while it was still hot.
Zhuang Muqing alone is not enough, so Qi Zheng was invited as a guest to discuss the anecdotes and dilemmas of cross-cultural life. This is a small salon in the industry, but it attracts a very rich audience.
Naturally, Shen Zhibing would not miss this opportunity, she thought, tonight should be a good day for the official reunion.
She didn’t wear a dress tonight, but a professional casual outfit with a half-length trench coat. Sure enough, when we arrived at the scene, everyone dressed casually, and Zhuang Muqing, who was sitting on the stage, was even more casual. Slim jeans and a pair of long boots complemented her extremely beautiful calves.
Since Shen Zhibing met Zhuang Muqing at the graduation ceremony, the name has always stayed in her heart. She admits she minds, but doesn’t lose her mind.
She had heard of Zhuang Muqing’s artistic achievements, but it was the first time she had observed and understood so closely. Zhuang Muqing has traditional oriental beauty, but because she grew up abroad, her personality is more open-minded.
The combination of movement and stillness is just right, which doubles her attractiveness and adds a unique beauty.
She does not deliberately conceal her emotions, and expresses her thoughts very sincerely. In addition to her own in-depth interpretation of art theory and novel perspectives, this salon is in no way inferior to any professional lectures.
Shen Zhibing came for Qi Zheng, but she had to admit that as an audience, she was really attracted by Zhuang Muqing’s speech.
By the time Qi Zheng came to the stage as a special guest, the audience had already drawn a lot closer to Zhuang Muqing.
Qi Zheng wore a casual shirt, a pair of dark slacks, and a pair of casual sneakers, and he had the temperament of an artist.
The two sat side by side, without frequent private communication, but it was enough to make people think.
“As an international student, you resolutely decided to stay in the United States to start a business. In fact, you have the courage to break the boat.” The host switched the topic to Qi Zheng. If Zhuang Muqing is a representative of American culture and cross-border Shanghai culture, then Qi Zheng is Chinese Struggle is typical of America.
“It’s just a choice. If you want to give yourself more opportunities to try, it’s not so tragic.”
Qi Zheng took the topic lightly, and she didn’t like to talk about the hardships of starting a business. It is true that many obstacles and difficulties have been encountered, but what kind of success can be obtained casually?
It is all because of persistence, and because of hard work, there will be gains.
Qi Zheng doesn’t like to compare which kind of effort is more cost-effective and which kind of success is more brilliant.
The host obviously didn’t buy it, and continued to ask: “I heard that you were sponsored by the company to study for an MBA, and did not return to China after graduation. Are you worried that you will be criticized?”
Qi Zheng didn’t explain anything about this: “I did struggle, after all, I failed the company’s cultivation to a certain extent.” She paused for a while and continued with a smile, “But my former employer is very good and so is Very open-minded, after knowing my true thoughts and plans, choosing to bless me without killing me has taught me a lot.”
Qi Zheng used to work in the secretary office of the president’s office at Shen’s headquarters, which is not a secret in her resume. But she seldom gave interviews, and the foreign media were not as keen on exploring Shen’s gossip as those in China.
Her answer aroused everyone’s interest, and the host went a step further with the question: “So did you fall out with your boss because of this?”
“It does make her unhappy, but she’s a good boss.”
A simple and good word is Qi Zheng’s highest evaluation of President Shen.
Shen Zhibing sat below, the corners of his mouth slightly raised. She had also thought about how Qi Zheng would evaluate her if he recalled her over the years.
“Then when you return to China this time, you are going to start a second business. Will you feel uncomfortable? After all, you have been living and developing in the United States before. Will you seek to cooperate with your former boss again?”
Shen Shi is too dazzling, and it is an absolutely hot topic in Haicheng. Even in the cultural world, it cannot be avoided.
Qi Zheng didn’t want to spoil the fun, and didn’t touch on personal topics, but she didn’t resist too much.
“I am from Haicheng myself, and I have the genes of Haicheng in my bones, so Haicheng is my home. Although I lived abroad for a few years, when I first came back, I was really uncomfortable because of the weather and jet lag. But that doesn’t change the fact that I’m from Haicheng. No one can get used to coming home because they’ve been away from home for too long, and there’s nothing more reassuring than their own country.”
This is indeed her feeling, and this place can give her more sense of belonging.
Even in the United States, what she misses and eats often is Chinese food.
As for whether there is a chance to cooperate with Shen, she did not make a clear statement. After all, this kind of thing can’t be forced, and I haven’t heard that Shen Shi has a suitable project that intersects with her industry.
After the lecture, most of the audience focused on Zhuang Muqing. Qi Zheng walked to the backyard to breathe the fresh air.
Shen Zhibing kept looking at her, and when she saw that she was alone, she finally had the courage to find her.
“Zizheng.”
The familiar voice made Qi Zheng turn around quickly before she was in a trance, her body reacting faster than her brain.
“Shen… Boss, long time no see.”
The joy in Shen Zhibing’s eyes was faintly visible, but she still stood there with a faint smile, not far or near.
Qi Zheng took a step forward and took the initiative to reach out: “I didn’t expect to see you here.”
Shen Zhibing touched her palm, and the nostalgic temperature was the same as in memory. She raised her eyes to look at Qi Zheng, and saw that her face was no longer deliberately groomed and indifferent, the shallow smile at the corner of her mouth was enough to make her whole body numb.
