Starting from half past one in the afternoon, the six sub-forums of the Qiandu Conference began one after another, and Ning Qingzhou and Jiang Hanxue went to the second conference hall of the Sealand Hotel to participate in the Dashu Forum.

Because the two o'clock of the large number jù forum officially began, so when the two arrived, they were not too late, and they happened to meet the leader in the opening speech, and originally thought that the leader would use "only three points" ** to consume half an hour first, but the leader expressed a full understanding of the mood of the audience present, and ended the speech in just five minutes, and did not forget to silence himself before the end: "I saw that Kong Ming also came to the scene today, so I can imagine the kind of urgent desire that everyone wants me to end, thank you." ”

Ning Qingzhou and Jiang Hanxue, who had just sat down in their seats, glanced at each other, and Jiang Hanxue asked, "Kong Ming, I feel as if I have something to find Kong Ming, what's the matter?" ”

Ning Qingzhou smiled: "You can just call and ask Huang Li to know." ”

"Oh yes, I want an autograph for the oriole!" Jiang Hanxue suddenly remembered, feeling slightly embarrassed, worried that Ning Qingzhou would laugh at him in his heart for being carried away by love, but when he looked up and saw him looking at him with a smile on his face, he didn't mean to mock, and he couldn't help but laugh at himself for thinking too much.

"Where is Kong Ming sitting?" In order to resolve the embarrassment caused by the small theater in her heart, Jiang Hanxue hurriedly changed the topic, and got up slightly to look for Kong Ming, but she didn't find Kong Ming, her eyes flickered, but she saw Jing Man standing on the edge of the podium, she stood there, her eyes inadvertently wandered the audience, and the eyes of the two met unexpectedly.

The clash between the lightning and flint immediately staggered.

"Don't look for it, he'll definitely have to perform on stage later, and you'll know where he's sitting then." Ning Qingzhou prompted.

"Hmm." Jiang Hanxue turned her head and smiled at Ning Qingzhou, and then prayed: "I hope you don't call me to the stage to give a speech later, there are so many bigwigs from various industries on the scene today, let me go on stage, I must be so nervous that I am deprived of oxygen." ”

"Didn't you prepare a speech, just read it when the time comes, and I can tell you that I have experience in this, that is, I am nervous and nervous in the audience, and I will find that it is just like that when I go on stage, it really doesn't work, you don't look at others, just stare at me alone."

Ning Qingzhou stretched out his hand as he spoke, Jiang Hanxue raised his hand slightly to meet him, the two clasped their hands together, their fingers clasped tightly, Jiang Hanxue's nervous mood slowly settled down, and the other hand reached into the bag to get the prepared speech, but it was empty, and his face changed abruptly.

"What's wrong?" Ning Qingzhou asked sideways.

"I don't think I brought the transcript of my speech."

"No, you can look for it again."

The power of love can certainly calm a person's mind, but it must not give birth to a speech out of thin air.

Jiang Hanxue rummaged through the bag, still didn't find the speech, recalled it, and said: "I took it out last night and rehearsed it, and then put it on the bedside table, what should I do, wait for the host to call me on stage, what will I say?" ”

Ning Qingzhou pondered for a moment and asked, "Did you bring paper and pens?" ”

"Yes, you want to ......"

"Give it to me, and I'll write you another copy."

Jiang Hanxue was stunned for a moment, but she didn't have much else to do now, so she hurriedly took out a notebook and a pen from her bag and handed them to Ning Qingzhou, who took it and said, "Borrow the bag too." ”

Jiang Hanxue also handed the bag to Ning Qingzhou, Ning Qingzhou put the bag on his lap, put the notebook on his lap, brewed a little, and immediately transported the pen to the book, about ten minutes later, a short speech of three or four hundred words was released.

At this time, the host happened to invite Kong Ming to the stage, and there was a whisper on the scene, and then a tall and handsome young man stood up.

"Wow~" A restrained cheer broke out.

Although the guests at the scene are all elites from all walks of life, with Kong Ming's background and today's popularity, it is normal to have a few fans in various industries, and the vanity of "seeing celebrities" belongs to every normal person.

Kong Ming came to the stage, and when he greeted everyone head-on, he couldn't help but cause a burst of admiration, Ning Qingzhou tilted his head slightly and looked at Kong Ming on the stage, with a smile of unknown meaning on his face.

"I'm better looking than on TV." Jiang Hanxue, who was reading Ning Qingzhou's speech, couldn't help but glance up and commented by the way.

"Angular, introverted, extraordinary temperament, superstar appearance, it seems necessary to know and understand." Ning Qingzhou said half-truthfully, and Jiang Hanxue patted him.

Subsequently, Kong Ming sang his recent song "Three Visits to the Thatched House", which was so popular and also entered the top ten on the hot search list, that in the process of Kong Ming's singing, someone in the audience sang along throughout the whole process, and the forum ushered in the first **.

Kong Ming sang a song, and had an interaction with the host, of course, insiders can hear it, this interaction is also arranged in advance, mainly for the Taoyuan brothers to advertise.

After Kong Ming got off the stage, the host announced a ten-minute break, Jiang Hanxue sat on the seat and carefully rehearsed Ning Qingzhou's speech, and Ning Qingzhou got up and went to the toilet.

It wasn't until many years later that Kong Ming couldn't help laughing when he talked about the chance encounter with Ning Qingzhou, because their first meeting was in the toilet, and both of them were relieved.

At that time, Kong Ming had just finished his work and was shaking off the last drops, when he suddenly heard someone next to him say: "Ming Zai, wait a minute, I'm your brainless fan, sign my name." ”

Kong Ming turned his head and saw a young man who was releasing water in a hurry, looked at him with a complicated expression, and said with a smile: "You are busy first, I will wait for you at the door." ”

After a while, the young man came out, and Kong Ming asked, "Did you bring a pen?" ”

The boy said embarrassedly, "I didn't bring it, but I'll get it now." ”

Kong Ming shook his head, then waved his hand to summon the assistant over, and said, "You go and get me a pen and a new notebook." ”

The young man hurriedly said, "What's so embarrassing? ”

Kong Ming waved his hand and said, "You didn't ask for an autograph for yourself, did you?" ”

The boy smiled awkwardly and said, "You can see it." ”

Kong Ming nodded and said, "You don't look at me like you're looking at a star, but like you're looking at an antique, I wonder if it's my illusion?" ”

The boy was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to answer.

Kong Ming smiled disapprethoughtly and shook his head, and asked casually, "Which company are you in?" ”

The teenager replied, "I'm writing novels on the Chinese website. ”

"Oh, it's you, the fifth floor and the twelfth city?"

The young man nodded, he was none other than Ning Qingzhou, whose pen name was the Twelfth City on the Fifth Floor.

"I've always wondered, why did you come up with this pen name? Isn't it the twelfth floor of the five cities? ”

"When I used to memorize this poem, I always remembered it wrong because of my mouth, and later I applied for a pen name and habitually wrote it as 'Five Floors and Twelve Cities'."

Kong Ming nodded with a smile and praised: "You are amazing, I think in a few years, your industry will develop better." ”

"Do you also pay attention to online articles?"

"Some time ago, it was said everywhere on the Internet that I was beaten by a web novel, and I was curious so I researched it a little, and I felt that it was a promising industry."

Ning Qingzhou said: "You said that this industry has a future, and this industry is definitely not far behind." ”

The two were chatting, Kong Ming's assistant brought a notebook and a pen, Kong Ming asked, "Say, who is it for?" ”

"Yellow Oriole, the yellow oriole with two yellow orioles singing green willows."

Kong Ming hummed, and wrote with a dashing stroke: "To Huang Li: I wish you a happy life and a happy day!" You have a wonderful friend, thank you for your support. Then he signed "Kong Ming".

Ning Qingzhou took the signature and said "thank you".

"You're welcome, I think there's still some time, let's go over to the balcony and sit for a while?"

"Okay."

The two walked to the sofa on the balcony and sat down, Kong Ming asked, "Do you usually pay attention to the entertainment industry?" ”

Ning Qingzhou nodded.

Kong Ming smiled slightly and said, "Then I should have heard of the Taoyuan brothers." ”

"I've heard it," Ning Qingzhou said with a smile, "Even if you weren't familiar with it before, you have become thunderous after you joined." ”

"Twelve is less than a prize." Kong Ming smiled: "Then do you think it is wise for me to choose the Taoyuan brothers?" ”

Ning Qingzhou thought for a while and said: "Regarding your decision to choose Taoyuan Brothers, there are already a lot of technical posts on the Internet to analyze, so I won't repeat it, but meeting you in such a situation today reminds me of a story." ”

"Tell me about it."

"The story goes that one spring, a group of wives of large families, noble ladies, young ladies, and many other young and beautiful women went to a wild place to enjoy the cherry blossoms, but there was a very inconvenient place in that wild place, that is, there was no decent toilet, so that the wives and girls who were anxious had to use the simple toilets of some farmhouses.

At this time, a poor farmer named Zhang San came up with an idea to make money, he built a clean toilet next to Sakura Mountain, and hung a sign on it, 'Convenient for three yuan at a time', and the business was booming, and he soon made a small fortune. ”

Kong Ming then continued: "There will be more and more toilet business in this place. ”

"That's right, after Zhang San made a fortune, another farmer named Li Si in the village was very jealous, so he also built a toilet, and his toilet was built more ornate and luxurious, with high-quality green bricks, streamer glazed tiles, cedar roof beams and pillars, cattail grass ceilings, and the windows were still floor-to-ceiling. In addition, the inner wall of the toilet is also pasted with high-quality imitation oil paintings of various famous artists...... In short, compared with Zhang San's civilian toilet, Li Si's toilet can be called a villa toilet. ”

Kong Ming smiled and nodded.

"The toilet is luxurious, and the charges are naturally different, and the toilet in Li Si's villa costs eight yuan for one time."

Kong Ming finally couldn't help but smile and said, "It will scare the guests away even more." ”

"Yes, even those aristocratic wives who came to see the cherry blossoms felt that it was too extravagant, and after admiration, they were discouraged, and in the end, Li Si's villa toilet business was dismal."

Kong Ming asked with amusement: "How can he turn this situation around?" ”

"He later prepared enough dry food and water, pretended to be a tourist, and then spent three yuan to live in Zhang San's toilet, and locked the toilet from the inside, as long as there were guests to go to the toilet, he coughed inside to scare them away, so the business of the villa's toilet gradually improved."

When Kong Ming heard this, he laughed and asked, "Is the story ending here?" ”

Ning Qingzhou shook his head and said: "Later, Li Si was smoked to death by the stench of Zhang San's toilet, which caused a great sensation, and later, some people said that Li Si was the first oil painting artist in history to commit suicide, and some people said that he was a martyr who was a master of Taoism. ”

After hearing this story, Kong Ming's smile gradually put away, and said: "Li Si worked hard to break Zhang San's monopoly and went straight against the current, which is his bravery;

However, he did not judge the needs of customers clearly and made wrong business decisions, which was his unwisdom;

In the end, he ruined his opponent's business with his life for the sake of his own business, which is inseparable from the category of vicious competition;

As for the fact that after his death, he was preached to 'preach in the toilet', which illustrates the nature of the truth irreversibly moving towards a false fate in the process of dissemination. The story of the Twelve Youths is not simple, both appropriate and profound. ”

Ning Qingzhou said: "I think Mr. Kong, your analysis is more powerful. Also, Mr. Kong just called me 'Xiao Ning', and 'Twelve Shao' made my scalp tingle when I heard it. ”

"Okay, Xiao Ning." Kong Ming looked at his watch and said, "It's time." Then he stood up, looked at Ning Qingzhou, and added: "To break the current monopoly situation, it takes courage, of course, courage does not mean blind brute force, it is necessary to talk about methods." Then, competition is inevitable, just to grasp a degree, thank you Xiao Ning for your story, it's nice to meet you, I hope there will be a period in the future. ”

"Mr. Kong, you are welcome, I am also very happy to meet you, and it is an honor to pee with you."

Kong Ming laughed when he heard this, and then strode towards the venue.
