After rebirth, I became a great master

Chapter 535 My name is Zhou Haoran

Zhou Zhengqi is like a celebrity.

Surrounded by a group of station leaders, he received a lot of attention and adulation, which aroused the curiosity of many colleagues who came and went in the unit.

Just what kind of important person is this?

Moreover, this person is really handsome!
He's even more handsome than Andy Lau!

"President Zhou, I heard you were here, and I insisted on coming to see you." Shan Wendong also came specially to greet him, shaking hands warmly with a smile that couldn't be more enthusiastic. "Come on! I'll arrange lunch today!"

Zhou Zhengqi wasn't here to have dinner with them, so he politely declined, saying, "Master Shan, I didn't come here for dinner. I came specifically to pick up a friend."

"A friend?" Shan Wendong keenly realized something. "A friend of President Zhou, working at the station?"

"Yes, a good friend."

Zhou Zhengqi said with a smile.

Beside him, Deputy Director Miao Yingjie reminded him to mention that President Zhou's good friend was Bai Panyang, the host of the program "Everyone's Art".

Shan Wendong didn't take it seriously and said with a smile, "So Mr. Zhou's friend is the host of 'Everyone's Art'. How about this, we'll invite Mr. Zhou to come and visit when the program is being recorded another day."

"OK!"

Zhou Zhengqi's eyes lit up, full of anticipation.

"I disagree!"

At that moment, a very impolite voice came from behind.

It was Zhou Haoran and Bai Panyang who came out of the Red Star Building.

"Miss Bai!"

Zhou Zhengqi's eyes were fixed on Bai Panyang, who had a graceful figure and exquisite features.

As for Zhou Haoran...

He didn't even glance at it.

With so many station leaders present, they wouldn't tolerate a nobody making a fuss.

Bai Panyang's expression slightly hardened, revealing a hint of icy coldness that kept people at a distance. She replied curtly, "President Zhou..."

The station leaders present also noticed it.

This host doesn't seem to like Mr. Zhou at all!
This is not possible!

Who is Mr. Zhou?

This is the most famous tycoon in the harbor, whose reputation has even reached the Hong Kong government. He has become a representative of private entrepreneurs in the harbor and has appeared before the people of Hong Kong.

You must befriend someone like that!

Deputy Director Liu Yuanqing said half-jokingly, "Mr. Zhou is a well-known entrepreneur in the harbor and a distinguished guest of Hongxing TV. Comrade Bai, if you have the chance, you must introduce our company to Mr. Zhou and help us win over such a big client."

He didn't know Bai Panyang.

So much so that they couldn't even remember the names.

Director Zhang from the office also chuckled and joked that Bai Panyang and President Zhou were truly a perfect match.

Bai Panyang gently bit her lip.

Zhou Haoran was furious upon hearing this and immediately shouted, "Zhang Jianfei, what do you mean?"

"what?"

Zhang Jianfei, the office director, is also a member of the station director's office and is considered one of the core leaders of Hongxing TV.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Haoran confronted him in public.

Some are embarrassed.

They were also taken aback.

Not sure what happened.

Zhou Haoran said coldly, "This guy is already married, and he still comes to the TV station to make friends. What kind of good person is he? I don't care who you are, and I don't want to pay attention to your mess, but Bai Panyang is the host of 'Everyone's Art Up.' Anyone who wants to mess with her will have to get past me first!"

"Haoran, calm down."

Shan Wendong didn't understand what was going on either, and quickly tried to mediate.

Zhou Haoran glanced at him, but thankfully restrained himself and gave him some face. His gaze then fell on Miao Yingjie, the deputy director of Red Star Channel.

Among these leaders, he was the lowest-ranking.

It is also best to set it as a target.

Zhou Haoran immediately turned his attention to him, coldly saying, "Miao Yingjie, what did I say to you this morning? The host of 'Everyone's Art Up' must first and foremost be upright! As for things like dining and drinking with others, go ask your mother or your wife!"

"You!" Miao Yingjie was furious, his face flushed red with rage. "You...you're lawless! There are so many leaders here, including President Zhou. This isn't a place for you to run wild!"

Zhou Haoran retorted, "This isn't the place for you to stir up trouble! What did I say to you this morning? Are you still feeling aggrieved? You even invited so many station leaders to intervene, what are you up to?"

"Mr. Zhou is a very important client of the station!"

Miao Yingjie used the company's interests as an excuse.

"Stop giving me that crap!"

This was a sharp edge that Zhou Haoran had never shown before; even when conflicts arose in the past, he had never been so edgy.

But there is no way.

This isn't workplace politics; it's just jealousy and rivalry, so you have to be direct.

Shan Wendong, Liu Yuanqing, Huo Jingye, and others were all shrewd people, and they immediately realized that the situation was not right, so they all chose to remain silent.

Even the office director, Zhang Jianfei, showed goodwill, revealing a smile: "Is there some misunderstanding?"

Whether there's a misunderstanding or not depends on what President Zhou really means.

Zhou Haoran then turned his gaze to Zhou Zhengqi.

Zhou Zhengqi was quite surprised.

Unexpectedly, an unassuming young man dared to contradict so many leaders in public.

It’s true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

However, Zhou Zhengqi was no pushover either.

She's just a pretty female TV host.

What does this mean? Who doesn't understand?

What's the big deal?

Zhou Zhengqi narrowed his eyes. "Miss Bai and I are friends. What? Is it any of your business?"

"I'm not!"

Bai Panyang was a little intimidated by the occasion. But seeing Zhou Haoran being "besieged" by so many leaders, she became very worried and couldn't help but stand up to offer her support.

Zhou Zhengqi smiled ambiguously, "Miss Bai, aren't you going to give me even this much face?"

Bai Panyang bit her lip tightly, her eyes reddening slightly.

Zhou Haoran retorted angrily, "Who the hell do you think you are? I'm giving you face, but who do you think you are?"

Shan Wendong frowned slightly. "Watch your language."

Hearing the station director's words, Miao Yingjie seemed encouraged and said in a deep voice, "You are a producer at Red Star TV, representing Red Star TV. Watch your manners! I'll tell you one last time, President Zhou is an important client of the station! If you act recklessly again, I'll dismiss you from your position as producer... and Bai Panyang from her hosting job!"

Zhou Haoran was actually threatened by him.

Bai Panyang gently tugged at his sleeve from behind.

At this moment, some people gathered around to watch.

Office Director Zhang Jianfei quickly cleared the area, as this was something that couldn't be done in public.

"Dismiss me? Who do you think you are!" Zhou Haoran didn't give him any face at all. "There are so many station directors and deputy directors here, it's not your place as a deputy director to speak! Shut up!"

"you……"

Miao Yingjie's face flushed red with shame and anger, feeling that he had lost face in front of President Zhou.

Shan Wendong quickly stopped him, frowning as he said, "Comrade Yingjie, job transfers must comply with organizational principles, not your whims."

"what?"

Miao Yingjie was stunned for a moment, and a chill ran down his spine.

Something feels off!

Seeing the detached attitude of these station leaders, he, who had been in the workplace for over twenty years, immediately realized the risks.

I might end up becoming the scapegoat!
Zhou Zhengqi narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Zhou Haoran with interest, and said with a smile, "You are the producer of 'Everyone's Art Up'? You're so young, but you have quite the drive."

"Get out of here!"

Zhou Haoran didn't care about this guy at all; what a load of rubbish, the richest man in the harbor.

"A bit impulsive."

Zhou Zhengqi chuckled, then shook his head, thinking that this person lacked self-control.

Zhou Haoran said calmly, "I'll only say one thing: stay away from Bai Panyang from now on. I won't say it a second time!"

"Oh?" Zhou Zhengqi's lips curled into a smirk, his eyes defiant. "What if I say no?"

"you try?"

Zhou Haoran looked over coldly, refusing to budge an inch.

Zhou Zhengqi was surprised. He looked at the station leaders who had been so enthusiastic just moments before and found that they had become somewhat distant and didn't seem to want to participate.

They couldn't do anything about a mere program producer!

Zhou Zhengqi was clever and immediately realized something was wrong. He toned down his high-profile attitude and tentatively asked, "Friend, what's your name?"

"My surname is Zhou."

"We were one family five hundred years ago!"

"Don't try to get close to me."

Zhou Haoran didn't give him a friendly look.

Zhou Zhengqi was somewhat taken aback. After all, the TV station was full of powerful figures. If this kid had a powerful background and influential elders in his family, then he really couldn't afford to offend him.

Miao Yingjie seemed to have seen through him too, and immediately exposed him, saying seriously, "Zhou Haoran, don't forget, you're just an ordinary person from the suburbs. Getting a job at Hongxing TV wasn't easy. If you dare to mess around again, you might lose your job!"

This is actually a way of helping.

Tell President Zhou that this kid is a nobody, lest he be intimidated by someone who's just using someone else's power.

"Huh?" Zhou Zhengqi was stunned for a moment, truly taken aback. "You... what's your name?"

Zhou Haoran glanced at him and sneered, "Zhou Haoran!"

"You...you are?" Zhou Zhengqi gasped, his expression changing drastically, his voice trembling slightly, "Which...which Zhou Haoran?"

Zhou Hao then took a step back and stood on the steps at the doorway.

He immediately became a head taller than everyone else.

It created an arrogant attitude, looking down on everyone from a superior position.

"It's Zhou Haoran, the one you know."

Zhou Haoran's words were like a riddle, leaving everyone present somewhat puzzled.

"You..." Zhou Zhengqi's eyes widened, he took two deep breaths, then abandoned his arrogant and domineering attitude, raised his head and slightly bowed towards the sky, "I apologize! My apologies!"

"Ok?"

Miao Yingjie was stunned on the spot.

What's the situation?
Mr. Zhou actually apologized?

Something is wrong!

"Mr. Zhou, you..."

Miao Yingjie was completely baffled.

Zhou Zhengqi didn't even look at him directly, but stared at Zhou Haoran and said in a friendly manner, "How about we go for a cup of tea sometime when you're free?"

Zhou Haoran said coldly, "Bai Panyang is my friend. Stop having such inappropriate thoughts!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Zhou Zhengqi genuinely realized his mistake.

It wasn't because of Bai Panyang's mistake in pursuing women.

It was the women who were chasing after wealthy men who made the mistake.

"It was all a misunderstanding. It definitely won't happen again. If I see Miss Bai again, I'll avoid her!" Zhou Zhengqi, being a shrewd man who had climbed up from the bottom, was indeed able to let go easily. "Miss Bai, I'm sorry. I formally apologize to you. I hope you won't take it to heart that I've caused you trouble these past few days."

"Ah."

Bai Panyang nodded slightly, her eyes fixed on Zhou Haoran, a strange light shining in her gaze.

Several other station leaders, including Shan Wendong, Liu Yuanqing, Huo Jingye, and Zhang Jianfei, also displayed unusual expressions.

As for Miao Yingjie, he was completely dumbfounded.

Shocked, they seemed to realize that a great terror was about to befall them.

Done!

My position as deputy director is likely in jeopardy!
