Chapter 35: The Twentieth Birthday
After the written script was sorted out and placed, it was evening. Seeing that the hour on the wall was the time to eat, Xu Ziming was about to go downstairs when the phone rang again.
Xu Ziming's patience was about to be worn out, and he began to curse in his heart, this Guan beauty is still alive.
Picking up the phone, Xu Ziming scolded angrily: "Why are you still calling, aren't you annoying?"
But what surprised Xu Ziming was that it was not Guan Zhilin who called this time, but his second uncle.
The other end of the phone was also very puzzled if Xu Ziming had taken the wrong medicine, the second uncle called to care, and there was no need to be so angry, Xu Ziming knew that he was wrong, and hurriedly explained the reason. The second uncle Xu Shifen didn't care too much about these things, and he took Xu Ziming as his son, and he didn't care much about these little sesame things.
Today he specially called, and it was also Xu Ziming's birthday. There can be a few people in life at the age of twenty, not to mention that Xu Ziming is the eldest grandson of the Xu family, looking at the whole of Hong Kong, there is no shortage of feasts in the homes of many wealthy families. Xu Ziming's eighteen-year-old coming-of-age ceremony was not held for many reasons, which is a pity among the wealthy families, and now he regards Xu Ziming as the heir, and he is an elder, so he naturally has to consider all aspects for him, if Xu Ziming is just a person with average talent, maybe he will not pay too much attention, but Xu Ziming, from his style, can guess, is not a simple person.
Xu Ziming prevaricated in every possible way, it was useless to cut his throat, Xu Shifen was enthusiastic, but sometimes old-fashioned and traditional. Xu Ziming simply accepted the opinion and held a birthday, but for the somewhat low-key Xu Ziming, it felt a little public.
"Why don't you like it, your second uncle and I'm going to help you hold a grand birthday party. Xu Shifen's heroism moved Xu Ziming a lot.

....................
Recently, I have been in a panic, there is nothing urgent to deal with in Xinyicheng and Kowloon Bus, Xu Ziming sat at the desk bored and began to write the script by reminiscing, no, to be precise, copying the script. Miao Qianren's schedule has been a little tight recently, and her relationship with her is a little delicate, so it's better to slow down, don't develop too fast.
Xu Ziming shook his head, the strength in his hands was too strong, and when he raised his hands to yawn, he accidentally knocked over the thick books stacked on the desk on the ground and slipped everywhere. When he picked up the book, Xu Ziming found a chapter of business cards, which read: Huang Zhan, Huang Helin Advertising Company.
This business card was the contact information he asked for when he first met Cai Lan and Huang Zhan, Xu Ziming put the business card on the table and began to think a little. Huang Zhan is one of the four great talents in Hong Kong, and his composition ability is absolutely first-class, and there is the specific office address of his company on this business card.
In the future, it is estimated that the movie shooting will have to rely on Huang Zhan to fill in the lyrics and create songs, anyway, I have been very idle recently, and there is nothing important to do, so it is better to have a relationship with Huang Zhan and do Lala, and learn some composition skills by the way. In fact, Xu Ziming still has a plan in his heart, sometimes he himself is very curious, a person is just a general goal at the beginning, but when the longer the time passes, the higher the position, a desire to control seems to become very strong, the original simple idea is wrong after all, or right, he is very confused.
The car went straight along Kowloon Avenue all the way, and made a lot of turns on the way, and then arrived at the place where Huang Helin's advertising company was located.
After parking the car, Xu Ziming walked towards an advertising company not far away.
The "Huang Helin Advertising Agency" was co-founded in 1976 by Lin Yanni and Huang Zhan, the company started with 50,000 yuan, and five years later jumped to the seventh largest advertising agency in Hong Kong with an annual turnover of 120 million yuan.
It's only 1980 now, and the scale of the company is still relatively small, but Xu Ziming, who just entered the door, saw at a glance the large banner of "Huang Helin" hanging on the wall of the front desk.
However, Xu Ziming's interest was broken by a pool of stagnant water in front of him, "Beauty, there is stagnant water there, please deal with it, otherwise the guests will be easy to fall." Don't be in your job and don't do anything", Xu Ziming went directly to the front desk to ask about the situation.
The cleaning girl thought that there was a beautiful boy to talk to, but she didn't expect to be nosy, and said with a white eye at Xu Ziming's back: "Neurotic." ”
It didn't take long for Huang Zhan to rush to the company, and after walking a few steps, he called the cleaning lady over, "Don't you see that there is stagnant water, deal with it quickly, otherwise it will be bad if a guest comes over and accidentally falls." Also, I paid you to hire you to do the work, not to seek his position, not to seek his responsibility" Huang Zhan dropped this sentence and went to run the company.
The cleaning lady was cute, as if she had heard this sentence.
"Boss, there is a person named Xu Ziming looking for you," the lady at the front desk informed Huang Zhan by phone.
"Hurry up and call him in" Huang Zhan was a little excited, since he had little contact with Monopoly last time, Huang Zhan wondered if this rich young master had forgotten himself.
To be honest, Xu Ziming really forgot about Huang Zhan, if he hadn't stumbled upon a business card today, he really wouldn't have remembered it.
"Xu Xiaoyou, I haven't seen you for a few months," Huang asked coldly.
"Mr. Huang, last time I said that I imagined you studying composition, but I didn't expect to forget it. Xu Ziming said when he entered the office.
Huang Zhan touched his nose and said with a hippie smile: "I also think I can write songs, but I've been busy with advertising agencies recently, and I don't think I can spare much time to help you, but I can recommend and give me a friend." ”
I thought that Huang Zhan would refuse, but it seemed that there was still a play, Xu Ziming asked curiously, "Who is Mr. Huang talking about?"
As soon as Xu Ziming opened his mouth, the lady at the front desk called Huang Zhan again, saying that Lin Yanni was looking for him to talk about something.
Huang Zhan was also very reluctant not to go, and before he could talk a few words, he was about to leave, "Xu Xiaoyou, why don't you go back first, come back another day when you are free, or talk on the phone"
Xu Ziming didn't react, Huang Zhan was urged more urgently, so he didn't pay much attention to Xu Ziming's whereabouts.
After a while, nearly an hour later, Huang Zhan returned to the office, opened the door, and found Xu Ziming still waiting there. There was a lot of shock in my heart.
"Mr. Huang, it's finally here. Xu Ziming seemed to have come to the bitter end.
"Don't call me Mr. Huang, call me Uncle Zhan in the future. Huang grinned. then took out a cigarette and handed it to Xu Ziming to express his apologies to Xu Ziming.
Huang Zhan is very pleased that a child of a wealthy family can lower his value so much, this friend is by no means a so-called one-sided friend.
Xu Ziming was also a little confused, in addition to coming today to make friends with Huang Zhan, but more to run songs.
"Huang..."Xu Ziming found that Huang Zhan's face was a little wrong, and immediately changed his words: "Uncle Zhan, you will call me Ah Ming in the future."
Huang Zhan immediately had a satisfied expression, as if to say, the son can be taught.
Taking advantage of the fact that Huang Zhan is not very busy now, Xu Ziming made his intention for today completely clear, and Huang Zhan really can't get out because of the advertising company.
Huang Zhan said: "I have a few friends at Tony Records, I have their contact information here, you can rest assured to go to them, they are very talented in songwriting." “
After taking the business card, Xu Ziming smiled and said, "Thank you Uncle Zhan for your kindness." ”
Huang Zhan said: "Why are you so polite, just invite the monopoly a few more times in the future." ”
Xu Ziming immediately added: "Okay, next time I will trouble Uncle Zhan to inform Mr. Cai." ”
Xu Ziming also knew that Huang Zhan had a lot of things, so he took his business card and chatted a few words before leaving.
Back in the car, Xu Ziming began to think about how to learn and improve his talent in music in the next time, and he must learn a few songs.
According to the address on the business card, Xu Ziming came to pour the location of Tony Records. asked the staff about Tang Zhenchuan, and was told that Mr. Tang did not come to the studio today.
It is said that he took a few days off. Xu Ziming returned in vain, and his phone couldn't get through, so he had to go back and ask Huang Zhan for his address.
The next day, Xu Ziming set off to Tang Zhenchuan's residence, the car had just driven through a pit, and inexplicably broke down, at this time it was raining lightly in the sky, Xu Ziming notified Zhang Bing in advance, and went to the house near Tang Zhenchuan's community to take shelter from the rain.
Because he didn't bring an umbrella, after staying in the rain for a few minutes, Xu Ziming's hair was wet and very embarrassed.
The sky is also changing, a little depressing, Xu Ziming took out a cigarette and a lighter, lit it and began to smoke. Before he took a few puffs, Xu Ziming saw a beautiful woman rushing to his place to hide from the rain, the rain at this time was heavier than when Xu Ziming came out, Xu Ziming began to be faintly worried, did Zhang Bing know where he was?
When this beautiful beauty approached, Xu Ziming felt a little impressed, with long hair fluttering, a standard melon seed face, delicate facial features, and a pair of big watery eyes that were going to fascinate people. Although she is not tall, her figure is convex and concave.
"Sir, are you here to take shelter from the rain?" asked the beauty, shaking the rain from her long hair, wiping the droplets off her face with her hands.
"Well, my car broke down on the top, I was looking for someone here, who came up with this thing. Xu Ziming said.
The beauty opened her mouth and smiled, "I also came to find someone, I just took a taxi here, and I forgot to take the umbrella in the car." “
Xu Ziming suddenly found that the beauty who was sheltering from the rain with him was somewhat similar to his own experience, and he sighed and cared at the same time: "This rain is so heavy, it is estimated that it will take a long time to listen to the rain, have you been waiting here?"
The beauty nodded, stroked her wet hair and said worriedly, "Are you different from me?"
Xu Ziming shook his head: "I have already called my driver to inform me to pick me up, and it won't be long before I come." ”
The beauty's face began to be a little worried, and Xu Ziming said, "Where are you going, maybe I can give you a ride." ”
