After rebirth, I became a great master

Chapter 187 The Hidden Wolf
Zhou Haoran wanted to make friends with him.

This is a reporter from "People's Livelihood Investigation". He has great social authority and there will be many opportunities to use him in the future.

Yan Hong also wanted to make friends with him.

I think this guy is very talented.

Maybe he has a good background!

After dinner, Yan Hong refused to let Zhou Haoran leave no matter what, and pulled him to start the third game.

Going to Baihuamen Ballroom.

These days, dance hall culture is popular in the country.

However, Zhou Haoran has never been there.

I had never been there in my previous life because I was young and wanted to learn. I was an honest and well-behaved person, and I stayed away from those places of entertainment. When I grew up, dance halls were no longer popular.

There are still a few dance halls left, but the atmosphere has changed.

You really should experience it in this lifetime.

Seeing him hesitate, Yan Hong pulled him aside and said, "Let's go. Many colleagues in the station go to the Baihuamen Ballroom in the evening. You might see a lot of acquaintances there."

"Then go ahead, but as agreed, I have to leave after nine. I have something else to do."

Zhou Haoran will have to go back to the office to pick up Qingmei from get off work soon.

But you can't be having fun outside and forget about your important work.

Went to the dance hall.

You have to buy a ticket.

This is an upscale dance hall and the ticket prices are very high.

Divided into two gears.

Men, 100 yuan.

Ma’am, 10 yuan.

Zhou Haoran couldn't always ask him to pay, so he took out two bills and bought the ticket.

I complained in my heart.

On the one hand, there is gender discrimination, with different prices for men and women.

On the one hand, I feel that the consumption in this big city is too high. No wonder the locals in Haigang have such an inherent sense of superiority.

The local consumption level in the 1990s was higher than that of most other parts of China 20 to 30 years later. If we go back another 40 to 50 years, we would have been far ahead of the rest of the world.

Entering the ballroom...

It’s like entering another world.

Neon beams swirled across the dome like a shattered galaxy, and laser lights shone onto the dance floor, transforming the dancing men and women into silhouettes of interlaced light and dark. The background music was the Cantonese song "Frozen Woman," and the air seemed to be filled with an ambiguous and enchanting atmosphere.

Unlike those DJ bars that make your chest numb with noise, the music atmosphere here is softer, mainly gentle and ambiguous, and people can communicate normally at a distance of one or two meters.

Yan Hong seemed to have been here many times and went straight to the booth inside.

After telling the number plate, I asked the waiter to take out the stored wine.

"How about it?"

Yan Hong leaned back on the sofa carefree, as if he was back home.

Zhou Haoran said with a smile: "Brother Yan, you are a regular customer!"

Yan Hong sighed, "If I can't do the show, then I can only drown my sorrows in alcohol."

Zhou Haoran said: "The cost of living here is not low!"

"I spend whatever I earn." Yan Hong has the unrestrained attitude of an urban white-collar worker. "I'm just an old man, and I don't have to support a wife and children."

Zhou Haoran smiled and said, "Very cool."

Yan Hong said, "Life is like this, why not live it to the fullest?"

Zhou Haoran laughed heartily.

After a while, the waiter brought up the stored wine.

Half a bottle of whiskey.

There were also several bottles of Sprite, a large glass shaker, and a large ice bucket.

Yan Hong was very skilled. He poured all the whiskey into the shaker, opened two bottles of Sprite and mixed it in, and then threw in two handfuls of ice cubes.

Just cover it and shake it.

Zhou Haoran praised: "Brother Yan, this is very professional."

Yan Hong smiled and said, "You'll get used to it if you come here more often. Don't look at me, just find someone."

"Who are you looking for?"

Zhou Haoran didn't understand.

Yan Hong said with a smile: "This is a dance hall, we are here to dance!"

Zhou Haoran looked around.

Sure enough, I found it in the distance against the wall.

There is a long row of sofas there.

It is estimated to be about 20 to 30 meters long.

There were dozens or even hundreds of girls sitting on the sofa.

It’s too far and I can’t see his appearance clearly.

But their attire is quite special, their skirts are all covered with sequins. Under the illumination of neon lights, they appear to be sparkling and radiant, just like the scales on a mermaid's body.

"Those are all dancers." Yan Hong saw his look, "Don't look for dancers. They charge a hundred yuan for a dance!"

Zhou Haoran had never been to a place like this before. "Who should I dance with?"

Yan Hong stretched out his hand and drew a circle, then said with a chuckle, "Look around, if you see a pretty woman, go up and ask her to dance."

"Will they agree to that?"

Zhou Haoran acted very inexperienced.

But I also know how to play in this dance hall.

"If you don't invite her, are you going to let her invite you?" Yan Hong advised him as a person who had been there before. "People come to the ballroom to dance. Generally, they won't refuse. At most, they can just wear a mask. Besides, many of my colleagues are here. Didn't you see them just now?"

"Really?" Zhou Haoran really didn't see it. "Did you see it?"

Yan Hong said with a smile: "When I came here, I saw several tables. If you can't let go, go find a female colleague from our unit to dance with you later."

"Oh, that's okay too."

Zhou Haoran is not really timid. Once he comes to the dance hall, there is no reason not to dance.

Although he is not very good at this kind of slow ballroom dance.

The two took two sips of wine.

"Almost done, let's go find someone!"

Yan Hong got up and took him to look for prey.

Zhou Haoran had only been at the company a short time and knew very few people, so he didn't see any acquaintances. Yan Hong, on the other hand, was different. He saw several groups of acquaintances in succession and greeted them all enthusiastically, including quite a few female colleagues.

"Haoran!"

At this time, someone called him.

It's a female voice.

Zhou Haoran turned around and saw a plump, straight and proud figure under the dim red light.

I actually saw an acquaintance!

"Editor-in-Chief Lin?"

Zhou Haoran looked surprised and walked over quickly.

It turned out to be Lin Guiyan, the editor-in-chief of "Family Gossip".

Lin Guiyan glanced at the direction he came from and asked with a smile, "Are you here with Yan Hong?"

Zhou Haoran said "hmm".

"Come on, sit down."

Lin Guiyan invited him to sit in her booth.

There are five people on her side.

Two men and three women.

Lin Guiyan introduced them and said with a smile, "This is Zhou Haoran from our channel sales department, young and promising!"

Then I introduced him to a few other friends, all of whom were colleagues from other channels in the station.

I didn't hear it clearly.

Qiao Suiqing always said at home that Editor-in-Chief Lin was a kind-hearted person with many friends. He was able to take care of all aspects of the column group and was deeply loved by his colleagues.

It can be seen now.

Seeing that Zhou Haoran was a little hesitant, Lin Guiyan smiled and asked, "What were you looking for just now?"

Zhou Haoran didn't know how to answer.

"Looking for prey?"

Lin Guiyan squinted his eyes and spoke in a low voice.

Zhou Haoran cleared his throat and said, "Brother Yan said there are a lot of colleagues here, maybe we can invite them to dance. The dancers over there are too expensive, one dance costs 100 yuan."

Lin Guiyan couldn't help laughing, "First time here?"

Zhou Haoran nodded.

Lin Guiyan suppressed her laughter and said, "I think so too!"

Zhou Haoran was well versed in socializing strategies. He then lowered his posture and asked nervously, "Editor-in-Chief Lin, can I ask you to dance with me later?"

"Me?" Lin Guiyan was slightly startled and glanced at him. "You are quite brave."

Zhou Haoran said, "I've only been here for a short time, so I don't know many people. I've looked around a lot, but I don't know anyone except you."

Lin Guiyan really gave him face and nodded slightly, "Okay, this show is almost over. Let's go to the next show... Um, can you dance? This is ballroom dancing..."

Zhou Haoran said: "It looks quite simple."

Lin Guiyan was amused by him and gave him advice as a senior, "Find a teacher later and learn! Slow three, slow four, fast three, fast four, etc., learn them all. This is a social dance. It's not easy for a man who can't even dance to get in."

"Is that so? I understand!"

Zhou Haoran looked as if he had suddenly understood something.

Look towards the center of the dance floor.

Now I really didn't understand, so I asked, "Editor Lin, why are so many of the ladies dancing wearing masks?"

Lin Guiyan said: "Because they are not dancers."

"What do you mean?"

Zhou Haoran didn't understand this logic.

Dancing with various masks...

This posture is really strange.

If you don’t know, you might think this is a plague cosplay for Halloween!
Lin Guiyan said, "When a girl accepts an invitation from a strange man, she will wear a mask to dance to express a certain distance in the relationship... You will understand after you come here more often."

Then the music stopped. The dance was over.

Men and women, with a strong mixture of hormones and the smell of powder, spread from the dance floor.

Zhou Haoran thought he needed to take a break before starting the next game.

Unexpectedly, this dance floor is running non-stop.

But it’s normal to think about it.

Dancers make money by dancing, so the more shows they perform, the more money they make.

Zhou Haoran extended the invitation and said expectantly, "Editor-in-Chief Lin, shall we go over?"

"This..." Lin Guiyan hesitated, "This seems to be a dark place."

Zhou Haoran didn't understand, "What do you mean by dark venue?"

"That's right..." Lin Guiyan thought for a moment, then smiled and said casually, "It's okay, let's go up."

Zhou Haoran stood up and extended his hand like a gentleman.

Lin Guiyan pursed her lips and smiled, glanced at him with a half-smile, then stretched out her hand and placed it in his palm.

Zhou Haoran took her hand and went on stage.

Sure enough, I found something different.

This time, there were almost no women wearing masks on the dance floor, and the number of dancers in sequined skirts increased sharply.

The background music playing is "Close Lover".

Zhou Haoran held her hand with one hand and supported her waist with the other, his movements were not awkward or embarrassed at all.

Lin Guiyan was quite surprised, "You are quite skilled."

“I learned it now.”

Zhou Haoran watched the actions of the people around him.

I found that the customers and the dancers were very intimate, with their hands not around the dancers' sides, but around their waists. Some customers even turned into dirty hands, sliding down from the waist and rubbing it up and down.

Zhou Haoran followed suit and put his arms around Lin Guiyan's lower back.

This hug naturally brought her into his arms.

The two bodies were pressed tightly together.

Lin Guiyan said angrily, "Hey, don't learn everything from them!"

Zhou Haoran was confused, "What's wrong?"

Lin Guiyan leaned close to his ear and said in a scolding tone, "That's a dancer, that's different."

The two of them were very close to each other, their bodies touching.

It feels really good!
Editor-in-Chief Lin is above average in appearance, but her figure is absolutely stunning. Coupled with the aura of a superior, she is very charming and elegant.

Zhou Haoran assured her, "I know, I'll put my hands on your waist."

"Pay attention to your feet. You really can't jump?" Lin Guiyan was a little amused. "You even stepped on me."

"What should I do? I don't know how to do the steps? Is there anything simple?"

"Two steps to the left, two steps to the right. Then two steps to the left again, two steps to the right. Follow my rhythm."

"Oh."

Zhou Haoran really can't dance.

However, the situation is quite right.

Following Editor Lin's rhythm, I didn't dance, but rather mechanically twisted my body. Two steps to the left, a few twists; two steps to the right, a few twists. Honestly, this dance felt really good!
The main thing is to have a good dance partner.

Editor-in-Chief Lin has a plump and soft body, and a gentle and considerate personality. Leaning on her in my arms is really a heart-stirring experience.

Gradually, Zhou Haoran became more proficient and asked in a low voice, "Editor-in-Chief Lin, when you said the darkened venue, did you mean the lights in the ballroom would be turned off soon?"

"Yeah, I guess they'll be here soon. Turn off the lights for a minute."

Lin Guiyan didn't want to come at first, because he was a newcomer and had no experience, so he participated in this dark place.

Although Zhou Haoran had never participated, he could guess, "After turning off the lights, did they start to touch each other?"

Lin Guiyan said, "Don't you see that this group of people is different from the last one? In the last group, many were wearing masks. This time, there are very few wearing masks. They've all been replaced by dancers."

"No wonder!"

Only then did Zhou Haoran understand what was going on.

After a while, the sound of the live DJ sounded.

Start countdown.

Five, four, three, two, one… the lights on the scene were turned off.

The dance floor was pitch black.

Zhou Haoran was pretending to be a novice just now, but actually he is not a good person.

Now that the lights are turned off, the atmosphere becomes even more ambiguous.

The other party is not a little girl, and he is bold and daring.

Just do as the Romans do.

Zhou Haoran didn't hesitate at all and used both his hands.

Lin Guiyan's body trembled, and he called out urgently, "Haoran, don't do anything rash."

"I don't have it?" Zhou Haoran was surprised. "Someone else?"

"other people?"

Lin Guiyan became even more panicked and quickly hid in his arms.

But I reacted immediately.

Isn't it obvious whose hand this is?
The hand coming from this angle must be from the jerk opposite! The two of them were so close together, no matter how long the other person's hand was, could it squeeze through and reach her chest?
Lin Guiyan was both angry and annoyed: "Don't lie to me."

Zhou Haoran whispered in her ear, "Editor-in-Chief Lin, how long is the lights-out time?"

Lin Guiyan said, "One minute, stop now."

"Oh, that will be quick too. Just hold on for a while and it will be over."

Zhou Haoran has no intention of stopping at all.

Lin Guiyan could be mad at him to death.

The dark time really passed quickly.

During the countdown, Zhou Haoran reached out to help her smooth out the line of her skirt between her waist and hips, while Lin Guiyan adjusted the straps of her bra herself, and they cooperated very well.

When I turned the lights back on, it was as if nothing had happened.

The two of them danced a very mechanical ballroom dance in an orderly manner.

Lin Guiyan said angrily, "If I had known, I wouldn't have danced with you. I'm going to complain to your sister later. Who did you learn this from?"

Zhou Haoran had already concluded that Editor-in-Chief Lin had a good personality, so he didn't believe she would complain. He said aggrievedly, "It's a dark place, isn't it? That's what you just said."

"I said, that is..."

"I don't know. It was my first time dancing, and I thought that's how it should be."

"You really are..." Lin Guiyan leaned back as he held her waist and raised her head to look at him with her pretty eyes, "Not for a while!"

"Ah?" Zhou Haoran was surprised. "There's more?"

Each song is 5 minutes long.

The second and fourth minutes are black light moments.

Lin Guiyan stamped her feet and said, "You're still laughing."

Zhou Haoran: "I didn't laugh."

"You're snickering!"

"No."

"If you dare to mess around again, I will never dance with you again!"

"Editor-in-Chief Lin, don't worry. It was just a misunderstanding. It won't happen again!"

Zhou Haoran made a solemn promise.

After a while, the second dark period came.

A familiar scene happened again.

Lin Guiyan sighed in his heart.

Give up struggling.

I just feel that this is terrible.

I thought it was a little lamb and I could take him with me.

Unexpectedly, this is a wolf hiding very deeply.

……

With a laptop, work becomes very convenient.

The customer information provided by the management committee is not only in paper version, but also in electronic version.

Insert the floppy disk into the computer.

These customer information can be managed digitally.

Jono wasn't very skilled.

Zhou Haoran personally took part in the operation and skillfully operated the computer, which made Qiao Nuo, who was standing beside him, admire him even more. He felt that he could learn a lot from Teacher Zhou.

"There are 423 customers here in total. We need to categorize them into key, general, and invalid categories. Look at these, they are all from the upstream and downstream of the automotive industry. They are completely worthless and are all invalid customers."

"This electronics factory makes Tetris game consoles. Although it only has 24 employees and sales of less than 20 yuan, electronic products have great potential and can be developed as a priority."

"The overall value of the garment factory isn't very high. Most of them are OEM factories. We mainly serve branded clients. For example, this 'Feiyue' shirt, this 'Bluebird' underwear, and this 'Weimeng' brand aphrodisiac underwear... Well, this one is really impressive!"

Zhou Haoran is demonstrating to his female apprentice.

Demonstrate and teach at the same time.

"Aphrodisiac underwear..." Qiao Nuo's face flushed, "Is this fake?"

Zhou Haoran said nonchalantly, "There's no way to disprove this kind of thing. It's just like health supplements. As long as the procedures are legal and compliant, it's fine. It's definitely better than something like anti-cancer insoles."

"Oh."

Qiao Nuo seemed to understand but not quite.

Zhou Haoran demonstrated to her for half an hour and then let her do the operation.

"Teacher Zhou, I haven't learned it yet. I know how to operate a computer, but analyzing customers is so difficult. I don't understand revenue, employee size, and brand building."

Qiao Nuo felt at a loss.

Zhou Haoran smiled and said, "It's okay, anything close is fine. If you made a mistake, the subsequent market can correct it for you."

“A market correction?”

Qiao Nuo was confused.

Zhou Haoran said, "Let's find our customers and write them letters. Our letters are well-written and will be very effective in this era. However, there will definitely be many people who disagree. This is the market's screening process."

"filter?"

"Well, screening out customers with a communicative spirit is much more efficient than visiting every household door to door."
