Chapter 16: A New Direction!
6 p.m.
Chen Zhan came to a Hunan restaurant called 'Xiangmanyuan' early, which is only a 5-minute walk from the radio station, and it is a place where everyone often goes to gather.
"Sir, can I order food? There will be more customers later, and the food will be served more slowly!"
In the box, a small waitress was holding a pen and paper in her hand at this time, standing one meter away from Chen Zhan, and asked crisply.
"Dong'anzi chicken, red simmered shark fin, steamed cured meat, breaded whole duck, spicy winter bamboo shoots, chestnut roasted cabbage sum, Wuyuan fairy, Jishou sour pork, chopped pepper fish head, farmhouse stir-fried pork, shredded cabbage. ”
Chen Zhan pointed to the menu and preached to the waiter, and then added, "Another family photo, that's all!" After speaking, he handed the menu back to the waiter.
"Yes, sir, I'm checking with you.... You ordered, Dong'an chicken, red simmered shark fin..."
"Yes, that's right!"
"So, sir, what else do you need to drink?"
"Drink a pot of freshly squeezed juice, if you want to drink? Wait! I'll ask them if they're drinking some beer or if it's free?"
"Okay, sir, I'm out then, can I help you serve the food now?"
"Well, let's get on it now!"
"Yes, sir!"
The waiter exited the door in response, Chen Zhan sat on a chair and lit a cigarette, then thought about it and took out his mobile phone, the mobile phone screen showed that it was already 6 o'clock in the afternoon, so he directly dialed the assistant Wang Er.
The phone is connected.
"Hey, Wang Er?"
"Brother Chen!"
"Are you off work?"
"Let's go, Zhang San and I are walking towards the 'Xiangmanyuan' together, and we will be there in 3 minutes!"
"Where's Brother Song?"
"I already told Brother Song in the afternoon, but he didn't say anything!"
"Hmm... Okay, come here, the dishes are already ordered!"
"Okay, Brother Chen, hang up first!"
"Hmm!"
After putting down the phone, a person sat quietly and swallowed the clouds.
A moment later, the door opened.
"Mr. Chen!"
"Brother Chen!"
Zhang San took the lead in entering, and the rest followed, Chaochen Zhan greeted.
"Come, all sit! The dishes have been ordered, do you see that the beer is still white on the hour at night?" After Chen Zhan saw that everyone was sitting down one after another, he opened his mouth while distributing cigarettes to a few people: "Why don't you order it white?" Seeing that everyone didn't speak, he proposed.
"Okay!"
"Everything is up to Mr. Chen!"
"Don't call Teacher Chen, it seems to be raw, just call me Xiaochen!" Chen Zhan smiled, and then shouted outside: "Waiter, take a 'drunkard'." ”
"No need! I've already brought the wine!" Brother Song was bowing his waist at this time, panting and holding a box of 'drunkard wine' into the door, seeing that everyone didn't react, they all stared at themselves, and said angrily: "Don't help yet, you're old, you young people don't know how to respect the old and love the young." ”
"Brother Song!"
"Brother Song, I'll help you!" Chen Zhan flashed a hint of surprise on his face, grinned, hurriedly stepped forward to take the wine box, and beckoned Brother Song to find a place to sit down.
"I'm tired to death!" After Brother Song sat down, he didn't care about anyone's cup, and drank it in one gulp before exhaling and sighing.
"Brother Song, I'm so happy that you can come!" Chen Zhan put down the wine box and turned to Song Bin.
"Humph!"
Song Bin snorted lightly, smiled and ignored it, drinking tea there by himself, obviously still a little angry.
"Waiter, bring some white wine glasses!" Chen Zhan was bored, grinning awkwardly at everyone, and then shouted outside the box.
Moments later...
The waiter came in with a wine glass, poured it to relieve the embarrassment, and placed the wine glass on the table, then opened the wine box, took out two bottles, and poured them for everyone one by one.
Chen Zhan raised the wine glass in front of him, gestured to everyone, stood up and said, "Everyone, thank you for coming, I have dried this glass of wine." ”
Then he picked up the wine cup and filled the wine glass, raised the wine glass and continued: "This second glass, thank you, for taking care of me in the past two years, I have dried this glass of wine." ”
The wine glass shook upside down in the air, signaling that there was no wine left, and he filled himself with a full drink: "This third glass, no matter what happens in the future, we are all friends, I have done this cup!"
"Tatsu Zhan!"
"Brother Chen!"
"Let's raise a glass together, let's drink with Xiaochen"
"To our friendship!"
Under the leadership of Song Bin, everyone stood up and raised their glasses and shouted.
Chen Zhan looked at the people in front of him, his heart was also sour, he didn't speak, he just drank the wine in the wine glass, there was a hot feeling in his throat, the cold wine rolled in his stomach, and soon it seemed like a flame was burning again. Suppressing the feeling of nausea in my heart, I quickly stretched out my chopsticks, took a bite of the small fried meat that had just been served and chewed it, the spicy taste of Hunan cuisine burst out in the taste buds, mixed with a sip of tea and swallowed it hard, which was a little better.
"Sir, the dishes are ready, please use them slowly!" the waiter brought the last dish and said politely to everyone.
After three rounds of drinking.
......
"Xiao Chen, what are your plans in the future?" Song Bin blushed, picked up a mouthful of food and tried to send it to his mouth, and looked at Chen Zhan after chewing and asked.
"Brother Song, I want to immerse myself for a while, learn something, maybe develop towards the deduction aspect!" Chen Zhan said, pointing to the guitar in the corner of the box.
"This is, this is the guitar, Xiao Chen, will you play this?"
"Brother Chen, will you do this?"
Everyone's eyes followed the direction of Chen Zhan's fingers, and then looked at Chen Zhan's eyes full of surprise, because they had worked together for two years, they had never heard of this, looking at everyone's surprised eyes, Chen Zhan just smiled and said nothing, stood up and picked up the guitar from the corner of the box, plucked it gently, and the beautiful melody came out.
"How is it? is it okay?" Chen Zhan looked at everyone with a smile, saw everyone nodding, and sang along with the music:
Yesterday is gone
Happiness is more expensive than anything else
The water can't be taken back anymore
The peach blossoms are gone, and there are roses
There will always be wind and rain to accompany you in the decades of life
Chic and sprinkled to the meeting, not drunk today, not home
Don't regret it in the past, and slowly realize it
At this moment, this glass of wine is the most precious friend
The crowd swayed to the music, with reddened eyes, immersed in it.
Fill up the wine and dry this glass and sing loudly
Good friends, good friends, how happy tonight
When he finished singing these two lines, Chen Zhan stopped and poured drinks for everyone.
"Cheers to our friendship!"
Chen Zhan raised his glass, shouted, and then drank it all, and then continued to sing.
Everyone learned to fight, raised their glasses and drank them all, and the atmosphere was very happy for a while.
.......
Ideals change who we are
It also taught me to cherish the shoulders of my friends
The sun will always shine after the wind and rain
Let's raise our heads and learn to be strong
It's like a friend's glass of liquor burning my heart
Warm me, don't rest assured in everything
.........
With a roar, the atmosphere instantly burned to the extreme, everyone picked up the chopsticks, shook their heads, and beat the rhythm with the music, over and over again....
After a long time, the guitar stopped and the singing stopped.
"Brother Chen, is this your original?"
"That's right, Brother Chen, just when you were singing, I used my mobile phone to check it on the Internet, and there was no such song!"
Zhang San and Li Si couldn't hold back at this time, and they all looked at Chen Zhan and asked one after another.
"Yes!"
After getting another affirmative answer, everyone looked stunned, Chen Zhan just smiled, and pretended to mutter: "That's why I want to go out and have a look!"
"Xiao Chen, you have this ability, you really should go outside! It's Brother Song who blames you! I did this glass of wine!"
Song Bin took the wine glass with a ashamed look and drank it all, and after putting down the wine glass, he suggested: "Didn't the news say that 'Xia Guoyou Singer' will enter the audition immediately? Xiaochen, at your level, it's no problem to participate in this show!"
"Brother Song, you are exalting me too much!" Chen Zhan put down his guitar and said.
"Brother Chen, I think what Brother Song said is right!"
Wang Er suddenly interjected, glanced at everyone, saw everyone nodding, and boldly continued: "Brother Chen, I call you Brother Sheng, although I don't know much about this, but I still have some appreciation ability, you sing really well, and the most important thing is that you can still write lyrics and songs." ”
"I'll think about it..."Chen Zhan was obviously moved by everyone's proposal, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "Do you really think it sounds good?"
"Really!"
"Yes!"
After receiving an affirmative reply, Chen Zhan seemed to have figured out the key, served everyone a drink, and proposed with a faint smile to everyone: "Come, cheers, I'll go out, I'll sign up in a few days!"
"!"
"Cheers"
"Brother Chen, come on!"
"Good!"
.........
One hour later, saying goodbye to everyone, Chen Zhan returned to the apartment building alone, fell asleep on the bed.
At this time, there was a lot of noise on the Internet because of his song "Friend's Wine".
