Zhutian Films: Starting with the Story of Roses

"Identity and background are just as important as appearance. They are both valuable assets in the market. You may not need them normally, but you must have them when you do."

President Jiang's guess was absolutely right. Chen Yang was indeed exerting his influence behind the scenes. If he only used Qingting Company's name, it would be difficult to thoroughly teach Zhuang Guodong a lesson.

During this time, Chen Yang silently watched Zhuang Guodong jump around, until now, he directly kicked this guy out of the position of manager.

Zhuang Guodong's position is not low; in the original story, he was the director of the marketing department. But now, he still has President Chen's influence on him.

Kick my ass hard with your leather shoes!

"Kerry."

"Thank you for your help this time."

"You know, I never like working with stupid people."

Chen Yang was making an international call to a friend from France, who had graduated from the Paris Academy of Fine Arts and also worked in the arts.

Kaili's cousin currently works at the headquarters of the company where Zhuang Guodong works, serving as the deputy director of the market research department.

When Mr. Teng received the call from headquarters, he immediately removed Zhuang Guodong from the position of manager.

To Chen Yang's surprise, after losing his position as manager, Zhuang Guodong chose to continue participating in the collaboration as a team consultant.

Chen Yang wondered what Zhuang Guodong was up to, until he suddenly remembered that Huang Yimei seemed to be frequently seen in the exhibition hall recently.

"I see."

"So, they're trying to steal my girlfriend?"

He chuckled to himself. Why didn't he hurry up and get away instead of eagerly letting Chen Yang continue to kick his ass?

"Since you like my Rose so much, I can bring her along to kick you."

Zhuang Guodong's reputation at Qingting Company is not very good now, and with the influence of Chen Yang, Huang Yimei also has a very bad impression of Zhuang Guodong.

After work that day, Chen Yang found Rose and said, "I'll take you out for dinner tonight."

Huang Yimei was pleasantly surprised: "That's rare!"

Rose's tone carried a hint of resentment. Since successfully joining Qingting, Chen Yang had not been particularly close to her during their work hours.

Chen Yang laughed and said, "Because your parents just treated me to dinner a couple of days ago, I have to treat them back."

She pouted, "Oh, I see."

After get off work, the two left the company together.

Han Ying silently watched Chen Yang and Rose leave work together. Last time, she interrupted in the exhibition hall, which made our boss, Mr. Chen, very unhappy.

When Han Ying heard that Zhuang Guodong had been removed from his position as manager, she clearly realized that President Chen was very angry this time.

"Hmm..."

"It seems we need to find a way to make amends for our mistake."

Chen Yang didn't care about Han Ying's thoughts. Right now, he was bringing Huang Yimei to a Western restaurant, hoping to use the meal as an opportunity to get to know Little Rose better.

Chen Yang's attitude towards Rose was not particularly proactive.

Even though he could vaguely sense Huang Yimei's "thoughts" after returning to China, he never actually put them into action.

This is part of the plan.

From childhood to adulthood, Huang Yimei has never lacked suitors, and there are even numerous examples like Zhou Shihui, who insisted on pursuing her even after breaking off an engagement.

Being a scumbag is actually the same as fishing; you have to be patient.

The restaurant was dimly lit, and accompanied by the classic Canon in D, Chen Yang and Huang Yimei took their seats. Rose was slightly dissatisfied with her outfit for the day.

"If I had known that Brother Chen Yang wanted to treat me to dinner, I should have gone home and changed into a pretty little dress. Instead, I'm wearing this shabby work clothes now."

Rose noticed that the other female guests in the restaurant were mostly dressed up and looked glamorous, and she pouted as she expressed her 'dissatisfaction' to Chen Yang.

Chen Yang replied with a smile, "People need clothes, but when roses are in full bloom, they don't need any extra decorations."

Huang Yimei was very happy to be coaxed by Chen Yang. She thought to herself that Brother Chen Yang still cared about her. He must have been busy with work recently.

During dinner, Chen Yang stroked the rose's fuzz, convinced that the rose would definitely win the bet with her family: "You can do anything you want."

Huang Yimei's cheeks flushed slightly: "Oh dear, I'm nowhere near as good as you say, Brother Chen Yang."

Chen Yang shook his head and said, "I like to tell the truth."

The two then talked about work, inevitably touching on the Sino-French exchange exhibition. Huang Yimei inquired about the "grudge" between Chen Yang and that Assistant Zhuang.

Chen Yang told Rose the truth.

"I don't have any grudges against him, but I prefer to work with people I get along with. After discussing it with Mr. Teng, we decided to change the manager."

I don't get along with Chen Yang?

That guy surnamed Zhuang must be too stupid.

Huang Yimei nodded silently, directly labeling Zhuang Guodong as stupid. The two didn't even know each other, yet Zhuang Guodong was already "sentenced" by Huang Yimei in advance.

The atmosphere at dinner tonight was very relaxed. Chen Yang talked to Huang Yimei about the workplace ecosystem and their in-depth exploration and discovery of the art field.

Rose held her face in her hands, listening intently, her admiration and respect for Chen Yang growing even stronger.

"Let's go."

"I'll take you home."

Seeing Chen Yang get up, Huang Yimei suddenly realized what was happening: "Huh? Going back so early? Actually, I think... we still have time to go see a movie."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang smiled and shook his head.

"Tomorrow isn't the weekend, so hurry home and rest. I'll give you a gift after you finish your three-month internship."

Huang Yimei's slightly disappointed mood was instantly cheered up by Chen Yang, and her beautiful eyes filled with joy: "What gift?"

I'll tell you when the time comes.

"Okay!"

......

The night was dark.

Bai Xiaohe returned home from school, and even though it was currently the holidays, she still preferred the feeling of being in the laboratory.

Home is certainly a good place.

However, it's only suitable to come back occasionally.

The Bai family's mansion is elegant and serene, with an overall decoration style that leans towards traditional Chinese charm. Valuable calligraphy and paintings by famous people are hung throughout the living room.

As expected, Bai Xiaohe was interrogated by her parents again during dinner tonight.

"Daughter."

"Did you tell Xiao Huang?"

"If he has time, we can go to Guangxi together. You two can also take this opportunity to learn more about it."

Bai Erru looked at his daughter. She was beautiful, highly educated, and from a well-off family, Bai Erru was worried about her marriage.

Old Bai gets a headache every time he thinks about it. Who knows why it's so hard to find a son-in-law? Making money isn't this difficult.

Bai Xiaohe lowered her head and said, "I didn't say it, but after spending this time together, I realized that Huang Zhenhua and I are not compatible in terms of personality."

Bai Erru and his wife exchanged a glance, both seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes. It was the same familiar answer: every time, the result was the same – not suitable.

Old Bai sighed, "My daughter, you must understand that in this world, there will never be anyone who is a perfect match for you in every way."

"If someone does, that person must be a liar. For two people to get together smoothly, they definitely need to work on their relationship over time."

Bai Xiaohe buried her head in her rice and said, "Oh, well, I don't want to work things out with Huang Zhenhua at all."

"Oh, my dear daughter!" Bai Erru pounded his head. "Tell me, when will your father finally be able to hold his granddaughter in his arms?"

Bai Xiaohe thought of Chen Yang.

After hesitating for a moment, she told her parents about Chen Yang's existence: "I met someone by chance some time ago."

"We've eaten together twice."

Upon hearing this, Bai Erru's eyes lit up instantly: "What's his name? What does his family do? What does he look like, what's his temperament like, and what's his job like?"

Bai Xiaohe was helpless.

"Anyway, it's related to your major."
