However, I saw that the dozens of tables at the door of the Zhuangyuan BBQ restaurant opposite were all full, with four people at each table, and not a single table was empty.

That would have been fine, but there were actually quite a few people who kept coming here and even lined up.

It’s just a barbecue, is it necessary to queue up like that?

Are they all aiming for the top spot?

Isn't it?

This middle-aged woman has no idea how powerful the influence of fan economy is.

As for food, there is a herd effect. The more people gather at the door of your restaurant, the better the food is. Therefore, within half an hour, the entrance of Zhuangyuan BBQ Restaurant was crowded with people. Those queuing up included not only Zhou Chen's fans, but even passers-by. When they heard that Zhou Chen was in the restaurant, they were even more reluctant to leave.

at the same time.

Officer Bai Ling, who had just finished her shift, drove towards the Zhuangyuan BBQ Restaurant with a group of her colleagues.

Zhou Chen helped Lu Qiao open a barbecue restaurant, which was a good thing. Since she had been invited, she would naturally bring people to show her support. She would not eat for free, anyway, it was no different from helping someone's business, so she might as well help Zhou Chen to keep up the good work.

"Oh, it's so rare for Sister Bai Ling to treat me to a meal. I didn't even have lunch, so I must eat my fill tonight!"

"Sister Ling, where are you taking us?"

Several colleagues sitting in the car were full of anticipation.

Bai Ling is usually aloof and rarely attends parties, but today she actually offered to treat them to a meal. How could they refuse?

But they were also curious. Why did Bai Ling suddenly invite them to dinner when nothing was wrong and no major case had been solved?

However, as she got closer to the barbecue restaurant, the scene of the crowded entrance of the Zhuangyuan BBQ restaurant suddenly appeared in front of Bai Ling.

Bai Ling, "..."

She suddenly felt that this brat Zhou Chen seemed to be treating her as a tool again.

With so many people, where can I find a seat to eat?

Moreover, as a police officer, when faced with such a situation, you must stand up and maintain order.

"Come on, follow me out of the car, maintain order, and don't let any chaos happen!"

Bai Ling said to her colleagues behind her.

Colleagues, “???”

What about the meal?

Chapter 176 Ji Linlin Arrives

Although they were all from the police station, it shouldn't be their turn to maintain order for the time being. But seeing that more and more people were coming, Bai Ling couldn't care less in order to prevent any accidents.

As for these colleagues, although they were still hungry, they knew the importance of the matter and had to get off the bus one by one and start maintaining order.

"Come one by one, keep your distance, don't crowd, don't crowd!"

Bai Ling and a few colleagues quickly got down to work.

Not to mention, after they shouted like that, the originally chaotic scene quickly became much quieter.

That would have been fine, Bai Ling even called the nearby transportation department and asked them to send someone to assist at the scene.

There is no way, because even with so many people gathered, there are still people rushing here.

"I still underestimated this guy's influence."

Bai Ling shook her head helplessly.

I had been thinking of coming over to show my support, but now, with so many people here, why do I need to come over to show my support? This guy Zhou Chen is already a big star, right?

While they were stunned, they saw Zhou Chen walking out of the barbecue restaurant and speaking to everyone.

"Everyone, don't worry, like this."

Zhou Chen shouted,

"There are so many barbecue restaurants nearby, everyone can go there, no matter which one you eat at, you can take a photo with me!"

Although Zhou Chen knew that some people would come today, he didn't expect that so many people would come to the small city of Xingzhou.

For a moment, it was hard to tell whether they were purely study fans, book friends, or fans of his songs. Anyway, these hundreds of people came for him.

Besides, it’s still half an hour before the opening time, and with so many people here, who knows how many more people there will be in a while.

Aunt Lu, Aunt Lu, I told you before that the little bit of food we bought is totally not enough to eat. Everyone has come here from far away, we can't let them wait in line for a long time and leave hungry, right?

Anyway, there are a lot of barbecue restaurants on this street, so Zhou Chen simply asked his fans to go to other restaurants to eat.

Opening a business means making one more friend and opening another path. You can make money for yourself and let others benefit from it. It can also ease traffic pressure. How great is that.

"Zhou Chen is so open-minded!"

"Knowing how to make concessions is really extraordinary!"

Sure enough, when the fans who were queuing heard that they could also have the opportunity to take photos with Zhou Chen by eating at other restaurants, they immediately cheered and found other barbecue restaurants nearby to sit down and order food.

There is no way. If we continue to queue, who knows how long we will end.

When the owners of the nearby barbecue shops and restaurants saw this scene, they couldn't help but look at Zhou Chen with admiration.

They are all old merchants on this street. Over the years, they have been fighting openly and secretly to make money. But now look at Zhou Chen, who actually takes the initiative to give them the opportunity to make money. Such a neighbor is not bad!

"Come on, come on, please come in!"

So, the bosses looked at Zhou Chen with gratitude, and warmly entertained the fans who came from all directions, and their hearts were filled with joy.

The lobby manager of the Hunan restaurant standing opposite had a face full of envy and jealousy.

Because Zhou Chen's benefit is only for the merchants over there, and the merchants on the opposite side of the street cannot benefit from it at all and can only watch the merchants on the other side make money.

This feeling is really uncomfortable.

"Virtue, it's only lively on the first day, let's wait and see!"

The lobby manager snorted coldly and complained, but his eyes were all fixed on the guests.

With Zhou Chen's actions, the originally crowded scene suddenly became much more relaxed.

But there are still people rushing here continuously.

Bai Ling and the others also breathed a sigh of relief, but saw Zhou Chen walking towards her.

"Oh, Sister Ling, thank you so much. You've worked hard today."

Zhou Chen had noticed Bai Ling a long time ago, but there were too many people there and there was a huge crowd between them, so they couldn't talk to each other at all.

"Sister Ling, I have already prepared a private room for you. Please come in..."

Zhou Chen said with a smile.

Bai Ling has helped him a lot, so naturally he has to entertain her well on the opening day.

"My fate is to be a tool!"

Bai Ling sighed helplessly. After a while, a lot of people gathered outside. She couldn't help but spread her hands.

"Look at this situation now, can I sit down?"

Zhou Chen, "..."

As the two were talking, a high-end business car stopped at the door, and a glamorous woman got out of the car.

As soon as this person appeared, the customers sitting outside exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh my god, isn't this Ji Linlin? She's here too!"

"Ji Linlin is Zhou Chen's good friend. My guess was right. Today was worth it!"

"Haha, Ji Linlin's songs are my favorite!"

That’s right, the person who came was none other than the popular singer Ji Linlin.

Although the song "My Dream" was written by Zhou Chen, Ji Linlin is still the most professional in terms of singing skills and voice. In recent months, Ji Linlin has also become very popular with this song and has received many invitations.

"Oh, Sister Linlin, my big star, aren't you going to come?"

Seeing Ji Linlin, Zhou Chen hurriedly went to greet her.

Nowadays, many celebrities are opening restaurants, and many customers go there just for the celebrities. Zhou Chen invited Ji Linlin over because he wanted to form a strong alliance and have Ji Linlin help him promote himself.

But he didn't expect that Ji Linlin actually came.

"How can I not come when your store opens!"

Ji Linlin rolled her eyes, walked forward, looked at the lively scene, and nodded secretly.

"Not bad, Zhou Chen. It looks like your barbecue restaurant will be a big hit even without my help."

Although Ji Linlin said she couldn't come that day, she just hid it from Zhou Chen on purpose and prepared a surprise.

But he didn't expect that Zhou Chen's popularity was no less than his own. It was something he might not be able to attract so many fans to support him.

"No way."

Zhou Chen smiled modestly and invited Ji Linlin inside.

"You're giving me face by coming here, Sister Linlin, please come in and try Aunt Lu's cooking!"

"What Aunt Lu? She's probably your son's mother-in-law, right?"

Ji Linlin looked at the busy Lu Qiao thoughtfully, then looked at Cheng Yushan who was busy serving dishes not far away. She snorted meaningfully and walked into the private room.

As he walked in, he naturally attracted cheers from many people at the scene.

"Well, it seems that I won't be able to eat this meal tonight."

Seeing that even a star like Ji Linlin had come, Bai Ling sighed helplessly. It went without saying that as these people at the scene posted on their Moments, more people would probably come in soon.

I can't escape the fate of being a tool.

Chapter 177 Eating BBQ and Listening to Music

Bai Ling's guess was correct. With a star like Ji Linlin appearing in the barbecue restaurant, the people at the scene started taking photos crazily. Soon, many people rushed to the scene, wanting to see Ji Linlin's real face.

Fortunately, at this time, people from the transportation department also came over, and their pressure was relieved a lot.

Moreover, these Zhou Chen fans were quite sensible. After eating and drinking, they didn't want to leave, but they would stand up and make room for those who came later. As for themselves, they took the initiative to help carry the plates. For a moment, it was hard to tell who was eating and who was working.

"The power of fans is really terrifying..."

Seeing this scene, Bai Ling was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Another hour passed and the scene was still very lively, but with staff maintaining order, there was not much chaos and it was already in a relatively balanced state.

Inside the room.

Because of the help of many fans, Zhou Chen and others didn't have to work personally. Zhou Chen also started to eat and drink with Ji Linlin. Yes, after working for such a long time, he was a little hungry.

"Come on, thank you, Sister Linlin, for coming here today. It's a great honor for my humble home!"

Zhou Chen toasted Ji Linlin with a glass of wine to express his gratitude.

"That's how you thank me? That's not sincere!"

Ji Linlin drank a glass as well, but her beautiful eyes kept staring at Zhou Chen.

"Oh? Then how can I show my sincerity?"

Zhou Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, because he knew that Ji Linlin would not come to help him for no reason.

"Um……"

But Ji Linlin propped up her head and thought for a moment, then smiled and said,

"Of course you have to write a song for me. I don't want to sing my old songs anymore, but I can't keep singing about my dreams, right? You had to prepare for the college entrance exams before, so I didn't bother you. Now that you're on vacation, you have to write me some good songs!"

Yes, Ji Linlin came to support Zhou Chen today just because she wanted Zhou Chen to help her write a few songs.

For a singer, having a good voice and good skills is not enough. Only by finding a song that suits him/her can he/she become one with the song and sing out that artistic feeling.

This is also the reason why many singers can only be popular for one or two years but cannot maintain their popularity for a long time. After all, it is not easy to find a song that suits them!

And Zhou Chen is obviously an expert in songwriting.

"Write a song, no problem!"
