Film and TV: Starting from childhood, I will give up Zhong Yi

Chapter 188 Zhao Qiping: Am I also a part of your play? (asking for monthly votes)
Lin Yuan looked relaxed: "I have enough funds on hand, so I haven't considered raising funds. Besides, I want to jointly hold shares in Ruixing Coffee with Andy."

Before Tan Zongming could react, Andy showed a look of surprise.

"Why is there still my business?"

Lin Yuan explained as a matter of course: "You helped me solve the manpower problem."

"But that was the help of Old Tan." Andy was still puzzled, with confusion flashing in her beautiful eyes.

"It's because of you that Mr. Tan is willing to help us. So you take 10% and I take 90%. That's it." Lin Yuan's tone was firm and left no room for doubt.

Andy quickly declined, waving his fair and tender hands: "10% of the shares is too much, I really can't take it."

"If you don't want it, I'll give it to another woman." Lin Yuan threatened half-jokingly.

Andy said nothing more now. A warm feeling welled up in his heart and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

She didn't care much about money, but Lin Yuan's action was undoubtedly a way of expressing his love and care for her.

Tan Zongming felt that the two were showing off their affection, but he had no evidence and felt uncomfortable.

As a successful and savvy businessman, he really likes Andy, but at his position, there are many things to consider.

Apart from anything else, Andy's mental state alone was enough to discourage him. He could only watch from afar and was afraid to get close.

So over the years, he has been silently protecting Andy as a friend.

He had known Andy for more than ten years, but he never had the courage to say it out loud, not to mention the fact that he was close to Andy. On the other hand, Lin Yuan had only known Andy for a short time, but judging from the intimacy he spoke to her, he seemed to be closer to her than he was.

I was originally asking about financing, but for no reason I ended up eating a mouthful of dog food.

Tan Zongming coughed lightly, trying to hide his embarrassment: "Okay, if you plan to raise funds in the future, you can contact me. I am very interested in the coffee chain you mentioned."

Lin Yuan smiled, a gleam in his eyes: "If you really want to invest, I do have some ideas."

"You say." Upon hearing this, Tan Zongming sat up straight, with an expectant look on his face.

"The scale of the mobile industry will surely grow explosively in the future. The trend of short videos has already arrived, and live streaming will be a new business track that cannot be ignored in the next five or even ten years. Mr. Tan, if you have any ideas, you might as well give it a try."

Lin Yuan spoke eloquently and confidently.

Tan Zongming smiled and said, "Boss Lin, just call me Old Tan, just like Andy."

“Well, Lao Tan, just call me Lin Yuan.” Lin Yuan responded readily.

"Lin Yuan, is there any difference between the live streaming sales you mentioned and the previous TV shopping?" Tan Zongming still had some doubts, frowned slightly, and his eyes revealed caution.

As someone who has been in the business world for many years, I always take a cautious wait-and-see attitude towards new things.

"As I said earlier, the scale of the mobile industry will expand immensely in the future. TV shopping has poor interactivity, and viewers can only passively receive information. However, live streaming is different. With real-time interactive comments, viewers can ask questions and express their opinions at any time. In the future, platforms can use big data to accurately push messages to target customers, greatly improving marketing efficiency. To be honest, my coffee may also be broadcast live in the future."

Tan Zongming couldn't help but nod slightly, as if thinking about something.

Lin Yuan continued, "Also, Shengxuan Group has a wide range of businesses, covering multiple categories such as electronic products, furniture, and medicine. Can we consider building an Internet of Things ecosystem?
For example, when a user is in the car, he or she can turn on Shengxuan's air conditioner with one click on his or her mobile phone, and feel cool and warm immediately when he or she returns home; Shengxuan's smartwatch can monitor the user's heart rate and blood pressure in real time, and can contact medical services when the critical value is exceeded..."

"Internet of Things..." Tan Zongming murmured in a low voice, his eyes gradually brightening.

Just when Tan Zongming was in high spirits, Lin Yuan poured cold water on him: "However, the technical research and development difficulties and market competition conditions of different industries vary greatly. It will be difficult to integrate them. This matter cannot be rushed. It is best to pick a few of the most influential products to test the waters, and then run in and run in step by step."

When Tan Zongming heard this, a thoughtful gleam flashed in his eyes, and he immediately asked: "Lin Yuan, in your opinion, which industries will have the most potential in the future?"

Andy, standing aside, raised the corner of his mouth slightly and jokingly said, "Old Tan, you want to 'rob money'."

Next, Lin Yuan briefly talked about big data, new energy, AI... and other big and small trends in the coming years.

Tan Zongming has a broad vision, and Andy is also a senior executive on Wall Street, and he often raises some novel ideas and questions.

The three of them talked back and forth, having a heated discussion.

Lin Yuan only pointed out a few general directions. As for whether Tan Zongming could listen to them, how much he could listen to, and whether he dared to try it, that was not his concern.

There will always be people planning in these areas, so it is better to take this opportunity to show goodwill to Tan Zongming. After all, judging from the original drama, Tan Zongming is an upright person.

Maybe Tan Zongming will be of use in the future.

After all, Lin Yuan himself had no plans to invest in these markets. Compared to starting a company and worrying about this and that, investing in some potentially profitable projects was obviously easier and more convenient.

As for the coffee shop that he was planning to open, because Guan Juer entered the coffee industry and held shares together with Andy, and then let Qiu Yingying join the company, the main theme of this company was to have a lot of bonds.

Tan Zongming looked serious and said in a serious tone: "I have decided to set up a new marketing department after returning, and the main direction will be to sell goods online. Andy, you can also hold some shares at that time. Without you, I would not have met Mr. Lin."

Wow, he started copying the solution ideas right in front of me.

Lin Yuan thought to himself, and looked at Andy calmly, agreeing: "In my opinion, it is reasonable for you to get some shares. After all, you are still being exploited by Mr. Tan, so it doesn't hurt to earn a little more."

Tan Zongming explained with a wry smile: "I have never exploited Andy. On the contrary, she is very strict with her employees. It is almost true to say that she exploits her employees."

"That's true. Andy is like a juicer. I often feel drained." Lin Yuan teased with a mischievous smile on his face.

Andy pursed her lips, her cheeks slightly flushed, and raised her hand to gently hit Lin Yuan's arm.

You're talking fine, why are you driving?

Lin Yuan gently took the little hand she waved over and held it lightly.

This scene almost made Tan Zongming's eyes pop out.

Andy actually took the initiative to touch others with his hands, and didn't mind Lin Yuan's touch.

He has known Andy for more than ten years, and this is really the first time for a young lady to get married.

If he still can't see the secret between the two of them, he might as well find a piece of tofu and kill himself.

Andy came back to his senses and realized his actions. He felt a little embarrassed in front of this long-time friend. He gently broke away from Lin Yuan's hand and declined politely: "Old Tan, I don't want to receive rewards without merit. The salary you offered me before is enough."

Tan Zongming followed suit and chuckled, "That won't work. If you don't want it, I'll give it to someone else."

Andy also joked: "Old Tan, then you can give it to someone else, or you can give it directly to Lin Yuan."

Tan Zongming's mouth twitched slightly. What was wrong?

"Stop arguing, both of you have a share." Tan Zongming shook his head helplessly.

Firstly, it was out of gratitude for returning a favor, and secondly, Lin Yuan had a unique vision and he really needed Lin Yuan to grasp the general direction.

Lin Yuan looked at his watch, the hour hand was about to point to twelve o'clock, so he said, "It's already noon, let's go to the restaurant to eat first, I have already booked a private room."

When they arrived at the restaurant, the three of them were still in high spirits and chatting animatedly.

As the helmsman of Shengxuan Group, Tan Zongming has to manage many industries on a daily basis and take all aspects into consideration.

Communicating with smart people like Lin Yuan brought him a lot of benefits.

The future decline of real estate, the explosive development of new energy, the terrifying potential of artificial intelligence...

After the meal, Lin Yuan wanted to say goodbye and leave, but Tan Zongming was still not satisfied and enthusiastically pulled him back to the company to continue chatting.

Relying on the insights accumulated over the years, Lin Yuan had a very thorough analysis of industry development trends and hot industries. Every word he said allowed Tan Zongming to gain new ideas and inspiration, so he naturally didn't want to let him leave.

The group was chatting happily when the phone in Andy's office suddenly rang, breaking the lively atmosphere of the conversation.

Andy picked up the phone and heard the receptionist say, "Miss Andy, there is a lady named Qu who wants to see you."

"The last name is Qu?" Andy muttered to himself subconsciously. The quirky figure instantly appeared in his mind. He thought that it could only be Qu Xiaoxiao.

Andy turned to Lin Yuan and said, "It seems that Xiao Qu came to see me. You guys continue chatting. I'll go take a look."

As soon as she stood up and took a step, Lin Yuan reached out to stop her. Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "Let her come directly, so you don't have to make a trip."

Andy thought about it for a moment and felt that what he said was true. He called the front desk again and asked them to bring the person over.

Not long after, a crisp "da da" sound came from far away. Then, Qu Xiaoxiao, led by the front desk, walked briskly to Andy's office. Before seeing the person, she heard his voice: "Andy!"

She wore a short-sleeved suit jacket with playful shorts and a delicate small bag on her shoulder. It was clearly a smart workplace casual style, but she looked casual and fashionable.

She was wearing a pair of black single-strap thick-heeled high heels. The black upper and thin strap design made her look both exquisite and fashionable.

As soon as she saw Andy, Qu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up. She quickly opened her arms and pounced over like a happy little deer.

Seeing this, Andy stood up and dodged as if by reflex.

She was just not resistant to Lin Yuan's contact, but she still had a vague sense of resistance towards other people.

As a result, Qu Xiaoxiao's expected leap fell flat on her face, and she fell forward uncontrollably due to inertia.

"Ouch! It hurts!" Qu Xiaoxiao screamed in pain.

Lin Yuan looked at this dramatic scene and couldn't help but teased: "Qu Xiaoxiao, you are really stupid."

"Pooh, pooh, pooh! Why are you here too?" Qu Xiaoxiao spat and groaned in pain, "Andy, why are you hiding from me!"

"I'm sorry." Andy was a little embarrassed and pulled Lin Yuan's arm, "Lin Yuan, help her up first."

When Qu Xiaoxiao saw this, she immediately yelled, "Andy, you don't even let me touch you, but you took the initiative to touch him?"

Andy was stunned by the question and didn't know how to answer.

Qu Xiaoxiao's eyes rolled around, a sly smile appeared on her face, and she snorted deliberately, "What a pity, I also like handsome Lin, it seems I don't have a chance."

Andy smiled bitterly. He was already used to her style of doing things. He asked helplessly, "Xiao Qu, can you still stand up now?"

Qu Xiaoxiao looked at her red left ankle, her high heels falling to the side, and said pitifully, "I think I will definitely be lame in the future. After hearing the news that GI had successfully become an agent, I came to you first."

"I finally understand what it means to be overjoyed and then sad." Andy sighed, then looked at Lin Yuan for help.

Lin Yuan took a step forward, supported Qu Xiaoxiao's waist and stood up, saying, "You are free, right? I have already collected your money on behalf of Andy, why are you still coming to thank me?"

Qu Xiaoxiao was not to be outdone. She hugged Lin Yuan's left arm with both hands. Although the action was intimate, the words she said were not polite: "If I don't come to thank Andy, how can I know whether you cheated me or not! Andy, was the 500,000 yuan I gave you cheated?" Lin Yuan replied seriously: "Yes, I cheated it all. Andy didn't get a penny."

Watching the two bickering back and forth, Andy felt a little overwhelmed. He raised his hand and rubbed his temple and said, "Xiao Qu, are you okay now? Lin Yuan, why don't you take her to the hospital first? I have a regular meeting to attend later."

"Okay, Lao Tan, I'll leave first then."

Tan Zongming nodded in response.

Lin Yuan looked at Qu Xiaoxiao beside him and said jokingly: "Don't you want to say hello to Lao Tan? Didn't you say behind his back that you know Lao Tan, and Andy is still Lao Tan..."

Qu Xiaoxiao quickly covered Lin Yuan's mouth, then limped and jumped in front of Tan Zongming, put on a sweet smile, and said to Tan Zongming: "Hello, Mr. Tan, my name is Qu Xiaoxiao, I am Andy's friend, and this is my business card."

Tan Zongming has great influence in the business world, and the Qu family cannot afford to offend him.

If Tan Zongming knew that I was plotting against him behind his back and made him angry, I would not be able to fight for the family property, it would be almost impossible for the family property to evaporate.

"Hello, Xiaoqu." Tan Zongming had a gentle smile on his face and handed over his business card naturally and generously, showing the demeanor of a mature entrepreneur.

"I'm going to the hospital first." Qu Xiaoxiao said pitifully, waved to Andy and Tan Zongming as a farewell, and then said to Lin Yuan coquettishly: "Hold me, I sprained my ankle and can't walk."

Qu Xiaoxiao was petite and light, and Lin Yuan picked her up effortlessly and walked out of Andy's office steadily.

Qu Xiaoxiao hugged Lin Yuan's neck, looked at the faint smile on Lin Yuan's face, and asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?"

"A woman should not weigh more than 100 pounds. Do you know what the next sentence is?"

"Bah! Don't you know whether my aunt has any clues or not?"

When Qu Xiaoxiao heard this, she became unhappy immediately, her eyebrows raised, and she twisted her body restlessly.

Lin Yuan jokingly said: "Well, I know you have no idea."

"Don't touch me anymore if you have the guts!"

……

Andy's office.

Tan Zongming looked at the two people leaving and asked Andy: "How did you deal with your brother's problem this time?"

Andy sighed slightly: "He likes life there very much. Dean Yang treats him like his own son. He is also unwilling to go back to the Magic City with me. I want to wait until he is familiar with me, and then I will take him back."

Tan Zongming nodded slightly, a look of understanding appeared on his face, and then asked: "Then will you return to the United States this time?"

"I have decided to stay and continue to take over the negotiations. Here, I have family and friends. Compared with the empty apartment in New York, this place may be more suitable for me."

Tan Zongming looked at Andy, shook his head, and said jokingly, "I'm afraid it's more because of Lin Yuan."

Andy raised the corners of his mouth, smiling like a flower, and did not deny it.

……

Lin Yuan stuffed Qu Xiaoxiao into the passenger seat, then sat in the driver's seat. He turned sideways to look at Qu Xiaoxiao and said, "Stretch out both legs so I can see."

Qu Xiaoxiao also took off the high-heeled shoes on her right foot and put her two feet on Lin Yuan's thighs. Her toes painted with red nail polish looked particularly eye-catching against her white feet.

Qu Xiaoxiao was suddenly a little surprised, and her slightly upturned toes moved slightly, her tone full of surprise and anger: "Where did you put my feet?"

"I'm giving you a massage to help your feet recover quickly."

"I really admire you." Qu Xiaoxiao curled her lips. Although there was disgust on her face, her body was very honest and let Lin Yuan do what he wanted. Then, she smiled mischievously and moved her intact right foot forward.

Considering that Lin Yuan didn't tell anyone about the fabrication he made up about Andy and helped me get Tan Zongming's business card, I'll just consider it a good deal for him.

After Lin Yuan released his primordial power, he stretched his sore wrist and said, "I don't think your foot is seriously injured. Why don't you just go back?"

How could Qu Xiaoxiao tolerate this? She stepped on Lin Yuan's thigh with her right foot and said angrily, "How dare you! I endured the pain and played with you for a long time. If you dare not accompany me to the hospital, I will expose you to Andy!"

The Sixth Hospital of Shanghai.

After Lin Yuan and Qu Xiaoxiao made their appointments, they waited in the waiting area for a long time, and finally it was their turn to enter the expert's clinic.

Qu Xiaoxiao was very dissatisfied as she had to wait in line for such a long time before getting in. She glanced at the doctor who was busy working with his head down and immediately started complaining.

"This hospital is so dishonest. I waited so long, and they only arranged for me to see a doctor like this. He doesn't even have a single gray hair, and they still have the nerve to call him an expert. They really treat patients like guinea pigs."

Qu Xiaoxiao had no intention of lowering her voice deliberately, and it could be clearly heard in this quiet clinic.

When Zhao Qiping heard this, he paused in writing the medical record, but he just frowned slightly and ignored it, continuing to concentrate on completing the work at hand.

Soon, Zhao Qiping finished writing the medical record card and looked up to talk to the previous patient.

Qu Xiaoxiao now had the chance to look at Zhao Qiping. Although the doctor in front of her was not as handsome as Lin Yuan, the calm and elegant temperament he exuded made her feel heartbeating.

After the previous patient left, Zhao Qiping took the medical record card on the table.

"Qu Xiaoxiao." He read the name on the medical record card and then asked, "What's wrong?"

"I sprained my ankle." Qu Xiaoxiao immediately put on a pitiful look and said in a tender tone, "It hurts really, really bad."

Zhao Qiping nodded and said calmly, "Then let's take an X-ray first to see if there is any problem with the bones."

"Oh." Qu Xiaoxiao responded, stood up with the help of the table, pretended to be very difficult, and prepared to limp away on her own.

She didn't want Lin Yuan to hug her at this time, but she couldn't act too intimate with Lin Yuan to avoid causing Dr. Zhao to misunderstand.

Lin Yuan naturally knew what she was up to, and without saying anything, he picked her up by the waist. After Qu Xiaoxiao realized what was going on, she immediately started to move her feet and said quickly, "Let me walk by myself."

Lin Yuan looked innocent and bewildered. He carried her out the door and said softly and dotingly, "Didn't I carry you the whole time when you came here? You're not heavy, like a kitten. I can handle it."

But as soon as he walked out of the door, Lin Yuan seemed like a different person. The smile on his face disappeared instantly and he put Qu Xiaoxiao down.

"You can dance by yourself. I'm tired."

Do you really treat me as a tool?
If you want to hug me, hug me. If you don’t want to hug me, don’t hug me. You are so beautiful.

"Lin Yuan! You!" Qu Xiaoxiao pointed at Lin Yuan angrily and swore a few words.

"You are not allowed to hug me later!"

Half an hour later, after the X-ray results came out, Lin Yuan carried Qu Xiaoxiao back to Zhao Qiping's office.

Qu Xiaoxiao turned around and looked at Lin Yuan hatefully. This bastard was reluctant all the way, but when she didn't let him hug her or follow her in, he went against her.

I walked all the way from the imaging department to the orthopedic clinic, and this guy didn't even pick me up. When I reached the door, he picked me up again. How abominable!
But she didn't have time to care about these things now. She put on a pitiful and weak look, two lines of tears rolled down her cheeks, and she looked at Zhao Qiping eagerly.

Zhao Qiping didn't notice her appearance. He just glanced at the X-ray and said calmly, "It's nothing. It's just a common sprain. You don't even need to take medicine. Just go back and rest for a few days and you'll be fine."

Qu Xiaoxiao tearfully said, "Doctor Zhao, maybe the X-ray didn't show it? I'm in so much pain."

"will not."

Qu Xiaoxiao did not give up and panted a few times: "But why does it hurt so much? It really hurts!"

Qu Xiaoxiao stretched out her painful left foot and shook it in the air.

Zhao Qiping stood up helplessly and moved closer to observe Qu Xiaoxiao's feet. He bent down slightly and was about to reach out to pinch them, but he smelled a very familiar strange smell entering his nostrils.

Zhao Qiping's face changed slightly, and he quickly withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

Damn, this isn't...

He looked at Lin Yuan and Qu Xiaoxiao in front of him with a strange expression and asked, "Am I also a part of your play?"

Qu Xiaoxiao still crossed her feet and said in a coquettish voice, "Doctor Zhao, you haven't seen it yet?"

Zhao Qiping frowned and sat back in his chair. He said stiffly but tried to be polite: "I checked it. There's nothing wrong with it. It's just a common sprain."

At this time, Lin Yuan suddenly spoke, his voice as gentle as the spring breeze: "It's all my fault, Xiao Xiao, next time I won't let you play with me like that, you accidentally hurt your feet."

Qu Xiaoxiao: ???

Zhao Qiping exclaimed in his heart, “Oh shit! I knew it!”

He was secretly shocked, thinking that these two people were really playing Thai. Fortunately, he was experienced and had quick reactions, otherwise his reputation would have been ruined by a kick.

Qu Xiaoxiao quickly explained: "No, Doctor Zhao, I sprained it in the office."

"In your case, go home and apply more hot compresses, and try to avoid wearing high heels in the next few months." Zhao Qiping didn't want to dwell on this topic any more, and just wanted to end this awkward conversation quickly, "I'm going to see the next patient."

"Doctor, I thank you on behalf of my girlfriend." Lin Yuan said as he touched Qu Xiaoxiao's head affectionately.

"Who is your girlfriend??? Please don't talk nonsense, okay?"

Lin Yuan looked at Qu Xiaoxiao with an apologetic look on his face, "Xiaoxiao, I was wrong this time. I won't hurt you again in the future."

"Shut up!" Qu Xiaoxiao was furious. She was just about to put on a good show in front of Dr. Zhao, showing her charm and fragility, but Lin Yuan kept making trouble.

He even pretended to be her boyfriend and acted gentle, but he was obviously not like that at all. He was as cold to her as he could be, which was really infuriating.

She looked at Zhao Qiping again, with a sweet smile on her face, and said in a tender voice: "Doctor Zhao, can I have your phone number? In case I can't sleep at night due to the pain, I still want to consult you."

Lin Yuan just looked at Qu Xiaoxiao helplessly.

Zhao Qiping was grumbling in his heart. These two looked like a couple having a quarrel, but the girl in front of him was talking to him in a coquettish voice and even asked for his contact information.

He couldn't help but feel a little numb on his scalp. He also knew that there were some strange ways to play on the Internet, and he didn't want to be involved, so he immediately thought of staying away from it.

Zhao Qiping declined politely: "No need, in your case, just rest for a few more days, you will be fine."

Upon hearing Zhao Qiping's refusal, Qu Xiaoxiao's smile froze. She really wanted to kick Lin Yuan away. This guy had stained her feet and was still trying to ruin her luck in love.

She regretted it so much. If she had known earlier, she should not have accompanied Lin Yuan in the car. Who could have thought that she would meet the person of her dreams in the hospital!
