Chapter 52: Life is like a chess piece with no regrets
Shu Neem drove her GT-S as scheduled, and the parking lot in front of the International Conference Center was crowded with famous cars, although her car was not the best, but it was undoubtedly the most eye-catching, and the appearance of the golden sports car jumped into the crowd, and everyone who passed by couldn't help but look sideways.
got out of the car, Shu Neem looked left and right, didn't see acquaintances, Gao Min and her agreed to enter together, because there was a red carpet link, and it was more imposing to walk together when there were more people.
Gao Min arrived at the convention center in a seven-seater business car and saw Shu Neem and her car at a glance.
In the black night and the black car group, the color of Shu Neem's clothes and the car is very symbolic, the army green long-sleeved leather shirt, gray blue cropped trousers, smoke gray snake-print boots, quicksand gold body, these combinations are a scenery of their own, which makes people unable to ignore.
Shu Neem's height can control the aura of domineering clothing, Gao Min has seen her private lazy style, but as far as formal occasions are concerned, she dresses every time is amazing, simple and extraordinary seems to be her concept of dressing.
Gao Min smiled slightly, walked towards Shu Mei, and a man and a woman beside him hesitated and followed.
Shu Neem looked left and right boredly, his eyes shifted, and he saw Gao Min, tsk...... Mr. Gao is dressed like a groom tonight, with a black dress and a white shirt with a bow tie and satin waistband, and the dress is quite grand!
"Mr. Gao, are you going to get married?" , Shu Neem quipped.
"Dark material capital and the spirit of the times have made a marriage contract, don't you know?" , Gao Min also quipped, "So, Mr. Chu's good days are my good days, and the point of wearing Long is not too much!" β
Shu Neem's gaze crossed Gao Min and focused on the men and women who came with him, were they people with dark material capital or people with the spirit of the times?
Gao Min turned around and introduced to Shu Neem, "Lan Ruixin, the director of the DMC direct investment team"
"Hello", Shu Neem took the initiative to stretch out his hand, Lan Ruixin handed out her slender jade finger as if giving charity, and shook it weakly, "Hello, Editor-in-Chief Shu, I heard Qiao Hang mention you"
Lan Ruixin was wearing a diamond-embellished dress, combing the hairstyle of an old celebrity, and her red lips were delicate, she glanced at Shu Neem and smiled slightly, "You dress with great taste."
When a woman feels that she can overpower another woman, she will show some kindness to the woman who has become a foil, and lightly praise a few words, such as: your clothes are good, your shoes are good, your earrings are chic...... For someone who has no point to boast about, isn't it proper etiquette to praise anything other than herself? You must know that some people are not very good-looking, and their taste is terrible, which is the worst situation.
What if another woman is beautiful? That will arouse her desire to win, see her as an opponent, and try to find out the shortcomings of her opponent other than his face, temperament, conversation, makeup, clothes...... As long as you pay attention, you will always find flaws.
The secret war between women Shu Nee knows very well, she doesn't care at all about the arrogance and contempt that Lan Rui shows in her heart, and she is immune to the diplomatic rhetoric in social situations after listening too much, just like men usually praise women for their beauty; If she is not beautiful, praise her for her temperament; If she is neither beautiful nor temperamental, you can praise her for being kind; If she doesn't, praise her for her health - see, this is the hypocrisy of goodwill among adults, so it is better to be praised for her good taste than to be praised for her health.
Gao Min glanced at Lan Rui's heart with a slightly cold expression, he pursed his lips and said nothing, his eyes flashed, and he turned his head to observe Shu Neem's reaction.
Shu Neem calmly praised Lan Ruixin, "I watched the financial commentary program hosted by Miss Lan, and I was thinking at that time that it is too rare for a professional like Miss Lan to coexist with beauty and wisdom. Now that I've met you, I think real people are more beautiful than on TV! β
Compared with Lan Ruixin's praise, Shu Neem's praise is more sincere, because Lan Ruixin is really good-looking and talented, and the person who can join DMC and act as a supervisor is not an ordinary person?
After listening to Shu Neem's words, Lan Ruixin's expression instantly brightened a little, and she didn't pretend to be reserved, and took out a business card from the dinner bag, "Editor-in-Chief Shu, if you have something to ask about investment, you might as well find me, I will be happy to solve your doubts!" β
Shu Neem took the business card and said with a smile: "It's my honor to have Miss Lan's guidance!" β
A battle disappeared in a blink of an eye, and I have to say that Shu Nee coped with it properly, if she also replied to Lan Ruixin with a few words, the scene would not be good-looking.
Gao Min pointed to the man next to Lan Ruixin and said to Shu Neem: "And this, Zheng Haoran, a strategic analyst at DMC."
Shu Neem didn't pay attention to the man next to her when she was talking to Lan Ruixin just now, and now she looks at it, and she has a good face.
Zheng Haoran opened his mouth and didn't know what to say, he glanced at Shu Nee in a panic and lowered his eyes quickly.
"Oh, it's you!" , Shu Neem remembered, the blind date man who Yonghe soybean milk!
Working in dark material capital, it is definitely not bad for money, in order to mess up the blind date, deliberately make an appointment in a fast food restaurant, which really makes people cry and laugh.
"Miss Shu", Zheng Haoran swallowed for a long time before holding back an opening sentence that the donkey's lips were not right with the horse's mouth, "You, are you okay?" This sentence should have been asked after the farce in the fast food restaurant, although Miss Shu didn't care about it at that time, nor did she reason with him, but quietly left with great grace, but this scene was far more uncomfortable than being scolded in public.
Gao Min intuitively felt that something was wrong with the two of them, "You know each other?" β
"Well, there was a one-time relationship, inβa restaurant"
"Yes, my girlfriend and I met Miss Shu in the restaurant"
These two guys are completely serious nonsense! Gao Min's eyes bluntly said that he didn't believe it.
Lan Ruixin was a little surprised, "Haoran, why didn't you say it earlier if you have a girlfriend, then I will invite someone else to be my male partner tonight, how bad it would be if your girlfriend misunderstood"
Zheng Haoran squeezed out a smile, "She won't, after all, it's a work-based entertainment."
On both sides of the red carpet, reporters held β‘β‘ short cannons to the guests.
Shu Neem said to Gao Min: "Let's go in, the award ceremony is almost up"
The four of them stopped talking nonsense, Lan Rui took Zheng Haoran's arm as usual with all her heart, and stepped on the red carpet with all manners, her beautiful appearance and bullish work experience were quite sought after by the media, so when she waved to the reporters on both sides, it immediately caused a crisp shutter click.
Shu Neem felt that she and Gao Min were like rubbing the red carpet, there was no attention at all, she felt sorry for the reporters at the scene, they missed a big news, the driving force of the zeitgeist who was about to go public was the low-key capital operator next to her, his wealth may be far beyond people's imagination, especially at such a young age, and the personal experience written into a script may not be as good as a movie about the founder of K.
A group of four people signed at the sign-in desk and entered the award venue directly, and waited for the award ceremony to officially start after taking their seats.
Shu Neem sat next to Gao Min, she was stupid to be silent all the time, she tilted her head slightly, and asked in a low voice: "What about Mr. Chu?" Didn't the zeitgeist come? β
The distance between breaths and smells, close enough to see her curled eyelashes, Gao Min whispered closer, "Mr. Chu is in the background, and the award ceremony will start later, and he will go directly to the stage to receive the award, and the people of the spirit of the times are probably also accompanying him backstage."
As he was talking, the awards ceremony began, and the host Liu Jing walked to the center of the stage in a golden sequined backless dress, looking at the audience with good eyes, pouting her red lips slightly, and making a coquettish expression, "Gentlemen, ladies, where is the applause?" β
Suddenly there was applause in the venue, and the beautiful women and coquettish men all bought it, especially the middle-aged men sitting in the venue were middle-aged men above the middle management level of the enterprise, and they were the most resistant to the little girl's coquettishness.
Sure enough, Shu Neem heard the whispered exchanges of the men around him:
"It's so sexy!"
"It's so glamorous!"
"This dress looks like a mermaid"
"Brother Shilin, call her next time you eat"
"I'm afraid it's not easy, she's the master of Chinese Satellite TV"
"The female star who has become popular recently, just who is it, I made a phone call, she didn't send it to the door obediently, Liu Jing is just a little host, as long as the money is in place, she will still lick me!"
"Then you're in for a treat!"
"Haha"
As soon as the frivolous words fell, the lewd laughter began again.
Shu Melia looked at Gao Min, as a man, didn't he feel the same way?
Gao Min folded his legs and leaned lazily in his chair, as if he was indifferent to the surrounding Yiqi, and the beauty was not in his eyes. He slanted the corners of his mouth and mocked in a mocking tone, "When a person's behavior is contrary to a solemn occasion, don't blame others for treating her with a frivolous attitude, besides, in this flashy circle, every qiΔ is clearly marked, and the only relationship is the consumption relationship."
"The ecology in the circle is like this, and the weight of the square is inseparable, and only the eight-sided exquisiteness can be praised"
"Whether to be an artist or a drama depends on personal choice"
"You seem to be disgusted by this circle?"
"Not only in this circle, all ugly phenomena and ugly people I am disgusted with, within my ability, why should I wronged my eyes to endure them? My time is my life, I don't want to waste it on things that don't matter, and neither do people! β
Shu Neem was silent, as Gao Min said, he has stood at the top of the pyramid, and he does not need to bow to anyone, he can naturally speak my heart and live with character and character......
What does he have to envy, Shu Neem said to himself, didn't you also get rid of the life of looking at people in the past and get free? Isn't the once-shelved dream of "I write my hand, my voice" also in the process of being realized? The trajectory of life is rarely the same, and it is most important to follow your own path.
After Liu Jing's hot session, Liu Wen, vice president of Chinese Film and Television Entertainment Group and director of the financial channel of Chinese Satellite TV, was invited to the stage to deliver a speech at the award ceremony.
After years of not seeing, Liu Wen looks like a successful person, his speech is full of fun, Shu Neem hooked his lips, her senior brother has deep language skills, he can write articles that are disadvantageous, and he can also reverse black and white without shame.
Ever since Liu Wen appeared, Gao Min has been paying attention to every little move of Shu Meli, and to his satisfaction, Shu Neem has always been unmoving, and he can almost immediately conclude that there is no selfish relationship between Shu Neem and Liu Wen, and it is very likely that they have broken up due to differences of opinion on principles and positions, or a unilateral rupture by someone.
"He's your senior brother," Gao Min paused for a moment and said, "You have a holiday"
Shu Neem didn't want to ask why Gao Min knew about the things on the surface, and it would naturally be clear if he asked someone about it.
"It's not a festival, it's just 'different ways don't conspire with each other, and each follows its own will'"
"You are from the same school, and he also takes care of you in the newspaper, so it is said that he should take you a hand when he goes to a high place."
"He was once the target and idol I wanted to catch up, but-", Shu Nee twisted his face and stared deeply into Gao Min's eyes, "But, life is like chess, I am willing to be a pawn, but he only wants to be the layout of the deacon." Therefore, Mr. Gao, although I am insignificant, I have never retreated from the path I identified, nor have I ever looked back, and I have no regrets! β
Shu Neem put aside his eyes after speaking, and returned to the stage, Chu Xi was dressed in a straight suit, and received the "Best Innovative Enterprise Award" from the hands of the award presenters in high spirits, he said: "Thank you to the review members and the Chinese Satellite TV Financial Channel for giving me such a high honor, this honor belongs to all the staff of the spirit of the times, and also belongs to the supporters of the spirit of the times, without everyone's support, there will be no success of the spirit of the times today." The weight of the trophy is very heavy, in terms of the spirit of the times, it is a responsibility and an incentive, we will continue to work hard to create a new value and a new way of life, thank you! β
When the applause around him rang out, Gao Min came back to his senses, and the award ceremony on the stage had been carried out for most of the time. He was thinking about what Shu Melia said just now, the original meaning was that life is like chess, I am willing to be a pawn, think twice, step by step, although the action is slow, how can I retreat. This is her code of conduct, and it is also her secret warning, don't touch her bottom line and principles, don't make mistakes.
Otherwise...... Don't even think about keeping it.
Because she, a pawn crossing the river, only advances, not retreats.
Even if Liu Wen wins the world, the Chujiang and Han realms will no longer go together.
