The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China - Chapter 1062
Zhongguancun, Mingcheng Information Industry Building.
In the most remote corner of the fourteenth floor, there is a sign that reads “Rock Network Technology Co., Ltd.”. The company is very small, with an office area of less than 100 square meters, and a total of 15 employees plus the boss.
It was almost time for get off work, Wang Lei was busy checking the progress of the work, and the sound of employees typing on the keyboard was loud.
The company’s original painting girl Lin Xiaoyue crept over and stood behind Wang Lei’s right back and patted him on the left shoulder.
Wang Lei turned to the right, then turned back, helplessly said: “Don’t make trouble, I’m busy.”
Lin Xiaoyue pulled a chair over and sat down, eating the potato chips at the lead table and saying, “Stone, you have to get off work early today.”
“I’m afraid not,” Wang Lei said, staring at the computer monitor, “Zhang Yan has already opened up the platform channel, and I can’t delay here. The whole company has to work overtime these days, including you.”
“Ah? Working overtime again!”
“Black-hearted capitalists, ruin my youth and kill me!”
“Mr. Wang, my girlfriend ran away with others after working overtime. You have to compensate me for a girlfriend.”
“Wake up, your girlfriend has leaked a long time ago, no one is interested in stealing.”
“…”
The company is full of grief and grief, and it is also mixed with ridicule. It seems that employees are not opposed to overtime.
This is a game production company, or more appropriately a game studio. The average age of employees is no more than 26 years old, which is the stage where they are full of passion. There is no family drag, and naturally they don’t care about overtime. Although overtime wages are not paid, they can get a lot of bonuses every time the project is completed.
The two bosses of the company are called Zhang Yan and Wang Lei, good friends who sleep in the bunk in the university.
Wang Lei came from an ordinary background, his parents were laid-off workers, and he made a living by running street food stalls. Zhang Yan is a rich second-generation, and his family runs a food factory, specializing in the production of spicy strips and the like.
Lin Xiaoyue is a student of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. She is about to enter her senior year. She usually works part-time as an original painting designer in this company.
Seeing that Wang Lei was still busy, Lin Xiaoyue could only write a note and hand it over: “The ancestors of the family are here, and I want to see you by name.”
Wang Lei took it over and took a look. He felt uncomfortable all of a sudden. He turned around and whispered, “I’ll see my parents now? I’m not ready yet.”
“You don’t want to?” Lin Xiaoyue asked.
“Yes, yes,” Wang Lei hurriedly expressed his attitude, “I mean, you should have informed me earlier so that I can buy some gifts for our parents.”
Lin Xiaoyue reassured: “Don’t worry, the gift has already been bought for you.”
Wang Lei looked at the time at the bottom right of the monitor, suddenly stood up and said, “Get off work, get off work, and do it tomorrow.”
The company suddenly became noisy, a few close friends discussed where to have dinner, and Wang Lei walked away with his girlfriend. This company does not prohibit office romances, but as a boss and female employees, Wang Lei is embarrassed to open up the relationship, although everyone may have guessed it.
As soon as we arrived at the elevator door, Zhang Yan, another boss of the company, suddenly got out of the elevator, and asked in a daze: “Get off work? Stone, you have to hurry up these days.”
Wang Lei was a little embarrassed and could only explain: “I’m going to Xiaoyue’s house to meet my parents today. In addition, everyone has worked hard during this time, and it’s not a problem to work overtime every day. You should relax properly.”
“Meet the parents? Yes,” Zhang Yan said with a grin. “Let’s go, I’ll drive you there. Let your kid take the driver’s license test earlier. It will come in handy now. Seeing the wife’s parents still takes a taxi.”
Lin Xiaoyue couldn’t help laughing and crying: “Hey, Zhang Yan, what’s wrong with taking a taxi? My parents are not snobbish.”
“Yes, yes, uncles and aunts are very good, but Shishi’s face should be supported,” Zhang Yan patted Wang Lei’s shoulder and said, “If uncles and aunts see me later, say that I am your driver.”
Wang Lei was also speechless: “What are you messing with?”
“Nonsense, what’s the relationship between us, can I care about your marriage? Let’s go!” Zhang Yan said and dragged Wang Lei into the elevator.
Zhang Yan drove the BMW 325 out of the garage, stopped suddenly and said, “You just wear a T-shirt and jeans?”
“Yes.” Wang Lei said.
Lin Xiaoyue said: “It’s okay, my family doesn’t care about that.”
Zhang Yan said: “Whether you care is one thing, etiquette is another. Listen to me, Shishi, go to the mall and buy a new one.”
Wang Lei felt very reasonable, nodded and said, “Then go buy clothes first.”
Lin Xiaoyue urged: “Don’t waste time, go directly to my house and drive quickly!”
“That’s fine, you have the final say,” Zhang Yan asked casually as he drove his car out of the underground garage, “Where is your home?”
“Bi Lin Yuan.” Lin Xiaoyue said.
“Gah!”
Zhang Yan slammed on the brakes, as if he had known Lin Xiaoyue for the first time, and said with a thumbs up, “Sister, you are good enough, you hide it deeply!”
“What happened to Bilin Garden?” Wang Lei asked blankly.
Zhang Yan didn’t explain, just smiled: “You kid, behave well, don’t screw it up, otherwise you won’t be able to eat and walk around.”
After more than ten minutes, Wang Lei finally realized that his girlfriend lived in the second ring villa area.
Beijing Second Ring Road and villa, these two words are rarely linked together. Building a villa in the second ring road where an inch of land is expensive, the developer is probably out of his mind.
The community looks a bit old, at least it was built seven or eight years ago. There is no separation of people and vehicles, but the green environment is scary. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, Wang Lei wouldn’t have believed that the bustling and noisy Second Ring Road still had such a quiet place.
Wang Lei became more and more uneasy in his heart, and couldn’t help but ask: “Xiaoyue, what are your parents doing?”
Lin Xiaoyue said: “My parents are not the key. Today’s protagonist is the ancestor of the family. If you make the ancestor happy, everything will be fine.”
“Ancestor?” Wang Lei looked confused.
Lin Xiaoyue explained: “It’s my grandfather, my mother’s grandfather! Alas, for the house in front of you, just drive to the door and stop.”
Zhang Yan stared at the big house for a long time and muttered, “Crazy, crazy, this house is probably worth my family’s total assets.”
Wang Lei’s whole person is messy. Although he is a top student who graduated from Tsinghua University, his parents are just laid-off workers. He never dreamed that his girlfriend would be a rich family daughter. He swallowed and said with a serious expression: “Xiaoyue, tell me, what exactly does your family do? Why do you keep hiding this from me?”
Lin Xiaoyue was a little cowardly and didn’t dare to look at her boyfriend. She lowered her head and said, “Mingcheng Information Industry Building was built by my grandfather with the investment of my grandfather’s name.”
Zhang Yan said confusedly: “Mingcheng? Which rich man is Mingcheng?”
Wang Lei said in confusion: “Zhou Hexuan, Zhou Mingcheng.”
“I’ll go!” Zhang Yan was half envious, half sympathetic, parked his car at the gate of the mansion and said, “Dude, take care of yourself and ask for your own blessings.”
Wang Lei got off the car as if he was sleepwalking. He saw a middle-aged woman walking towards him. He subconsciously greeted him, “Auntie, I’m Xiaoyue’s boyfriend Wang Lei.”
Lin Xiaoyue reminded in a low voice, “This is my nanny, Aunt Liu, who brought me up since I was a child.”
“Hello Aunt Liu.” Wang Lei was immediately embarrassed, he thought he had met his future mother-in-law.
Zhang Yan in the car almost laughed out of his abdominal muscles, he smirked: “Stone, enjoy it slowly, I’ll go first.”
Aunt Liu suddenly shouted: “Don’t go, young man, the old man told you to go in and sit too.”
“Me?” Zhang Yan asked in surprise.
Aunt Liu pointed to the balcony on the second floor: “The old man was basking in the sun upstairs, he saw you coming.”
Zhang Yan said happily: “Yes, I was lucky today, and I was able to meet the big man in person.”
Lin Xiaoyue’s mother, Zhou Shuyi, is cooking herself, and her father, Lin Jianchun, is still on her way home. The three exchanged a few words with Zhou Shuyi and were taken directly to the balcony on the second floor. The two young men suddenly became extremely cramped.
“Sit down and introduce yourself.” Zhou Hexuan squinted and lay on the rocking chair.
Wang Lei said quickly: “Hello Mr. Zhou, my name is Wang Lei, Xiaoyue’s boyfriend.”
Zhang Yan also said: “Hello, old man, my name is Zhang Yan, and I am Wang Lei’s partner.”
Zhou Hexuan suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes swept away, and the two young people suddenly felt their scalps numb, feeling that their whole body was seen through.
“Old monster!” Zhang Yan muttered in his heart.
“It’s amazing!” Wang Lei was trembling.
Lin Xiaoyue took Zhou Hexuan’s arm and said coquettishly, “Grandpa, you were so fierce just now, don’t scare people.”
“Just sit down.” Zhou Hexuan suddenly became kind, and his sharp eyes became dim and old, as if those were just illusions.
The two young men were already sweating in their vests, and Little Wing Yi sat down, not daring to take a breath.
Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: “Don’t be nervous, young people should have the spirit of young people, can I be eaten by a bad old man?”
Zhang Yan smiled and said, “You are a majestic old man, and anyone who sees it will be frightened.”
Wang Lei also said: “You are too famous, we dare not make trouble.”
Zhou Hexuan asked, “What kind of books do you like to read?”
Zhang Yan said: “I am interested in history and like to read some history books, especially your “The Fifteen Years of Wanli”. Of course, I am just a history lover, and I dare not play an axe in front of you.”
Wang Lei said with difficulty: “I… I basically read only technical books. I rarely read extracurricular books when I was in school. The only thing that can be related to literature is “Reader”. Oh, by the way, I have read history. “Three Kingdoms”.”
Zhou Hexuan asked, “Which character do you like the most in Romance of the Three Kingdoms?”
Zhang Yan said: “I like Cao Cao, he makes good use of his talents, he is informal, persevering, and has a true temperament.”
Wang Lei thought about it for a long time, and his heart was already cold, and he felt that he was going to screw things up. He bites the bullet and says, “I don’t have any favorite characters. They each have their own strengths and weaknesses.”
Zhou Hexuan did not comment and continued to ask: “I heard that you have opened a company, what career aspirations do you have in the future?”
Zhang Yandao: “Work hard to make a good game, make the company bigger, and become a model in the industry!”
Wang Lei said: “I’m just like Zhang Yan, I have to do my best anyway.”
Zhou Hexuan squinted and said, “Games are not easy to do. There are countless game companies that die every year.”
Zhang Yan said quickly: “Our company is different, we have our own accurate market positioning. According to our analysis…”
Zhou Hexuan immediately interrupted: “I don’t understand the game, so you don’t need to tell me the specifics.”
“Yes.” Zhang Yan smiled awkwardly.
Zhou Hexuan asked again: “Do you like playing video games very much?”
“like.”
“really like.”
The two young people no longer dared to tell lies in front of Zhou Hexuan.
Zhang Yan said cautiously: “Sir, many people now regard video games as spiritual opium, but this is actually a very wrong concept. Games are also a special hobby and sport. Some people like to play games, just like some people like to read books. Some people like to play basketball.”
Zhou Hexuan asked, “Can you play any chess?”
Zhang Yan said: “I can play chess and Chinese chess.”
Wang Lei said: “I can only play Chinese chess.”
“Oh, let me see you next game. Xiaoyue, move out the chess at home.” Zhou Hexuan said.
The two young people could only play chess with a bit of a head, while Zhou Hexuan watched silently from the side.
Zhang Yan’s chess style is very aggressive, and he likes to play tricks and tricks, and he is always hesitant when he needs to make a decision. Wang Lei’s chess style is relatively stable, he takes every step of the way, never greedy for success, but he is very decisive when changing pieces.
The chess skills of the two are not much different. The first game was actually tied, and Wang Lei narrowly won the second game.
After playing two sets, Zhang Yan has already let go and said with a smile, “Sir, why don’t we come to the next game.”
“Okay.” Zhou Hexuan smiled.
Zhang Yan soon became depressed. He encountered a brutal killing game. Zhou Hexuan slowly ate all his chess pieces, leaving only a solitary old coach who was repeatedly molested.
“Amazing, amazing, you are professional!” Zhang Yan gave a thumbs up.
Zhou Hexuan smiled and said, “My chess skills are average, and my housekeeping skills are mahjong.”
Zhang Yan hit the snake on the stick and immediately said, “If there is a chance, I must learn it.”
“No problem.” Zhou Hexuan seemed to have won and was in a good mood.
Lin Xiaoyue saw that her boyfriend was sullen and did not speak, but Zhang Yan chatted with his grandfather. She couldn’t help but get a little anxious, and leaned closer to whisper: “Don’t be stunned, you usually speak well, why are you still dumbfounded now?”
Wang Lei answered silently with his lips: “The pressure is huge, and the brain is dazed.”
Lin Xiaoyue did not wait for Zhang Yan and grandfather to play the second game, and took the initiative to help set the pieces and said, “Stone, you can play chess with grandfather too.”
Zhang Yan immediately echoed: “Yes, you come down with the stone, you are the protagonist today.”
“Then I’ll try.” Wang Lei squeezed out a stiff smile, and then he was defeated like a mountain.
Not long after, Lin Xiaoyue’s father Lin Jianchun also went home, and the two young people accompanied Zhou Hexuan downstairs for dinner.
At the dinner table, Zhang Yan made all kinds of gags that made her smile. On the other hand, Wang Lei was always half a beat, and seemed a little helpless, so he became more and more anxious, and in the end he messed up when toasting – knocking over Zhou Hexuan’s teacup, and the tea flowed all over the floor.
After nine o’clock in the evening, the two young people left the mansion, and Wang Lei said with a pale face: “It’s over, it’s over, I’m a clown today!”
Zhang Yan could only pat his buddy on the shoulder and comforted: “It’s alright, don’t think too much. Mr. Zhou is not so careful, he smiled the whole time, and didn’t blame you at all.”
“That’s terrifying,” Wang Lei said with lingering fears, “Xiaoyue’s grandfather, he knows everything in his heart, he just doesn’t show his emotions.”
Zhang Yan felt the same, nodded and said: “I heard people mention the masters of the Republic of China before, but I still disagreed. Today I finally see that no one who can be powerful in the Republic of China is a simple role. What’s more, he lived more than 100 years old. We are already a mature old fox, and we are just like kindergarten children in front of him.”
Wang Lei said: “His eyes are like knives, which can pierce a few holes alive.”
Zhang Yan said: “Damn, it’s fine if you don’t say this, but when I talk about it, my scalp is numb. I used to read online novels, and when I read online novels, what kind of eyes gleamed and what kind of eyes killed, I thought it was funny, but today I finally experienced it myself. It’s even scarier. What is it? He can take it back and let it go. He smiles so kindly and kindly, and when he doesn’t stare at people, he is like a retired old man.”
“Oh, I’m out of play,” Wang Lei shook his head sadly. “Originally, their family is a big family, and it’s not right. I’m acting like a clown again today. It’s estimated that Xiaoyue will be banned from interacting with me in the future.”
“Look at it, buddy,” Zhang Yan comforted. “We and they are not of the same class. Even if we work hard all our lives and make the company China’s industry leader, it will be like a child’s play in front of others.”
…
Lin.
Lin Xiaoyue sat on the sofa angrily, similar to Wang Lei’s thinking, she also felt that her relationship would be opposed by her family.
Zhou Hexuan half-squinted and asked, “Shuyi, how do you feel about these two young men?”
“That Zhang Yan is not bad, he’s polite and disciplined, he copes decently, and he’s also very smart.” Zhou Shuyi said.
Zhou Hexuan asked again, “Where’s Xiaolin?”
Lin Jianchun said: “People like Zhang Yan are very easy to get ahead, but their future achievements are limited. As for Wang Lei, the young man has great potential, but it is a pity that the starting point is too low, the vision is too shallow, and the small family is too strong, and needs to be cultivated slowly.”
Lin Xiaoyue suddenly became happy: “I’m right to pick people’s eyes.”
“I still lack some understanding.” Zhou Hexuan said.
Lin Jianchun echoed: “Yes, my understanding is somewhat lacking.”
Zhou Hexuan said: “When the Olympics are over, I will go to Tianjin to see Sanletang. Xiaoyue can accompany me, and let her boyfriend follow.”
Lin Jianchun was taken aback for a moment: “Grandpa, isn’t this a little bit of help?”
Zhou Hexuan smiled and said, “If he can’t stand this test, what qualifications does he have to be my great-grandson-in-law?”
“Grandpa, Dad, what test are you talking about? Why can’t I understand it at all?” Lin Xiaoyue asked confused.
Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: “If your boyfriend accompanies me to Sanletang, he will definitely be very busy next time. It depends on whether he can keep his heart and not be blinded by the five colors. If he can make it through, Even if it is a big traitor, I will recognize it, and it should be training successors for your department.”
Lin Jianchun immediately felt sympathy for that young man, because he came here like this back then.
It is easy to marry the daughter of the Zhou family. There are only three requirements. First, the daughter of the Zhou family likes you; second, you must have basic abilities and potential; third, your character!
Mind is the most elusive and the most important.
When life undergoes great changes, it can test a person’s character the most. This kind of change not only refers to encountering great disasters, but also refers to the spring breeze, everything goes well, and one is rich.
