Chapter 569: Goodbye Valentine
The third dinner is very inconspicuous at present, that is, Cui Zhengguang invited four friends from the bank to a dinner to discuss the purchase of stock subscription warrants. But two months later, all the people who attended the dinner were surprised to find that they thought they had taken advantage of it, but they didn't expect that the person who took advantage of it was the youngest among them.
Because of Cui Zhengguang's inadvertent reminder and pressure from his superiors, these young rising stars more or less also bought some stock subscription warrants. Two months later, because of Cui Zhengguang's timely communication with them, the one who bought at least 100 copies also became a half-millionaire. From now on, they don't have to do unnecessary things like corruption, which is the most powerful firewall for the people in the banking system.
This paved the way for the four young people to move forward in the future.
Twenty years later, these elites and CEOs of the Chinese banking industry recalled the events of that year, and each of them couldn't help but sigh that Cui Zhengguang, a business wizard with "sharp eyes and a record of never missing a record in investment", really started from that dinner party.
According to the plan discussed with Ye Zi, Cui Zhengguang bought a variety of stock subscription warrants from these four bank friends, and helped them complete the tasks assigned by their superiors ten days in advance, with a total amount of 600,000 Huaxia yuan. The next day, Cui Zhengguang will go to the branch office of their respective bank to go through the formalities and withdraw the call warrants.
Except for asking for serial warrants, Cui Zhengguang did not make any further requests to them. However, these four are still quite good, they have been commended by their superiors to report Cui Zhengguang's righteous help, and after getting the authorization of the bank's senior management, they directly raised Cui Zhengguang's credit rating in the banking system to the highest level at present, which made Cui Zhengguang quite satisfied. Although in the current Huaxia banking system, the level increase does not have much practical significance, at most, it is equivalent to VIP customers in later generations. However, with the rapid development of China's banking industry and its integration with the world, the value of such a high level of credit rating will become more and more obvious. Cui Zhengguang was able to become the holder of the first batch of Yuntong black cards in China, which has a lot to do with the improvement of his credit rating in the Huaxia banking system this time.
The friendship between several young people has gradually become deeper after Cui Zhengguang's move to send charcoal in the snow, which is of great benefit to Ziguang Company and those two small companies, as well as to the future of Ye Zi and Cui Zhengguang.
……
At ten o'clock in the evening of the same day, Ye Zi, together with Sun Yun and Ni Jun, met Mr. Valentine again in the luxurious suite of the new Jinjiang Hotel.
"Hi Bruce, I'm so glad to see you again, my boy, I can't wait to hear you play again." After hugging and greeting Sun Yun and Ni Jun respectively, Valentine hugged Ye Zi tightly, patted Ye Zi's back vigorously, and said.
The week he spent in Shencheng last year made him really impressed with Ye Zi, otherwise he would never have handed over the task of performing the "Mallorca Concerto" to Ye Zi, even though Ye Zi's two teachers were Valentine's classmates and friends for many years.
Ye Zi also knows this.
"I'm glad to see you again, Javier."
"And what are we standing for? Come on, come on, come in and sit down. Valentine looked very happy, and stretched out his hand again and again to invite, and a slight blush appeared on his usually pale face.
The four of them came to the living room and sat down, and after chatting a few words, Valentine got up and walked over, took down an old-fashioned manual coffee bean grinder with a crank from the shelf, as well as a series of tools such as measuring cups and alcohol lamps, shook his head and smiled: "I like the beautiful country of China very, very much, so you see that I set foot on this land for the second time in half a year, but ...... Damn why I can't drink a pure F-style coffee here, it's absolutely unscientific! So you see, what did I bring this time? ”
Pointing to these tools, Valentine shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, and said with a wink: "I can only fly here from country F with my tools and my coffee beans, or I won't be able to drink my favorite coffee, oh my God, then I'll go completely crazy." ”
Valentine's exaggerated tone drew laughter from everyone.
"Javier, if you're into Colombian coffee, I know there's a place where you can find it." Ye Zi said with a smile, of course he was referring to the 1937 café next to the south gate of the TV station.
"Colombian coffee? No, no, we people in country F don't like to drink pure coffee, it's a little too bitter, but if it's purely handmade, maybe I can find a time to taste it. Valentine tilted his lips and shrugged his shoulders again: "For me, a fragrant and delicious cappuccino is better than a ding-quality Blue Mountain." ”
"Then you won't have that mouth." Ni Jun smiled: "You F people are so narcissistic. ”
"No, no, no, it's not narcissism, it's romantic, it's laid-back, it's the mood of life my friend. You've lived in country F for eight years, haven't you even learned this? "Valentine is still used to sticking with Ni Jun.
Ni Jun also shrugged his shoulders in Valentine's style, and then spread his hands: "Leisurely enough that even the dogs on the street can't clean up, my friend?" ”
Sun Yun sat on the side and smiled knowingly.
The people of country F love dogs and are obsessed, and the dogs can defecate and defecate on the street, making a mess and no one cares about it. This can also be regarded as a "beautiful" unique street scene in the romantic and leisurely country of Country F.
"It's a damn thing to be in charge of, they collect so much tax, they don't know what they're doing." Valentine immediately defended that the main deputy was the best backstabber.
"I know I know, anyway, anything wrong is done by the right guy, and I already knew it when I was in country F." Ni Jun grinned.
"Of course it is, my friend." Valentine said it seriously, and then laughed out loud.
Talking and laughing, soon, the aroma of coffee was wafering around the living room.
"Come, come, friends, try my craft, Valentine's secret recipe to make a cappuccino, this is the best job of our Valentine family." Valentine walked over with a tray and four cups of fragrant coffee, and in the middle of the tray were two small plates of delicate snacks.
When friends gathered, no one would be polite, and the four of them each took the cup of coffee closest to them.
"Xiaowa, I haven't tasted this taste for twenty years, it's so delicious!" Taking a sip of coffee, Ni Jun closed his eyes and sighed.
When he opened his eyes again, there was a glitter in the corner of his eye.
"yes, twenty years!" Valentine sighed in the same way.
Sun Yun raised the coffee cup in his hand and said with a smile: "Then let's make the friendship between us for a full twenty-eight years," Speaking of this, Sun Yun looked at Valentine and Ni Jun beside him.
"Yes, Sun, Ken, for our twenty-eight years of friendship," Valentine said, raising his glass.
"For the friendship that will continue after twenty-eight years," Ni Jun also raised his glass with red eyes.
"Cheers!"
The three coffee cups touched slightly.
……
"Bruce, how's the recent rehearsal going, any questions?" After chatting for a while, Valentine turned to Ye Zi and asked, this was also something he was very concerned about.
Ye Zi smiled and said with great confidence: "The rehearsal process is quite good, and we can perform on stage at any time." Javier, I'm sure I'm playing a big step up from the last time you heard it. ”
In the face of Westerners like Valentine, Ye Zi does not need to be modest and polite.
"Oh? Is it? That's really great! Valentine is not surprised that Ye Zi will say this, on the contrary, if Ye Zi's performance level has not improved in the past half a year, it is something that Valentine cannot accept.
Ye Zi's current age is in a stage of rapid rise as a performer, and if there is no improvement at all compared to half a year ago, then there are only two circumstances that can explain it. The first is that Ye Zi's performance level has stepped into the realm of a master, and what needs to be improved cannot be achieved in a short period of time. The second is that Ye Zi's talent in performance has been exhausted, and there is no way to continue to improve himself.
The first possibility is hard to imagine at Ye Zi's age, Valentine listened to Ye Zi's performance half a year ago, although he is talented, but the distance from the performance master is still very far, not something that can be crossed in just half a year. Performers and singers have a lot in common in terms of the progress of their business standards, and Ye Zi still lacks enough deep life experience at his current age, and it is almost impossible to become a master singer and performer. Technique can be achieved through talent and hard training, but without the feeling of life experience, it is no problem to become a competent performer, but it is too difficult to become a master. Although Ye Zi is a reborn person with decades of experience and experience in the previous life, Ye Zi did not specialize in classical guitar in his previous life, and his life experience is a useful supplement to his classical guitar performance in this life, but it is still not enough for the realm of a master performer.
If it is the second possibility, it means that Valentine is completely blind to Ye Zi, and he has mistaken Ye Zi's playing talent and the heights he may reach, in that case, Valentin will of course be very disappointed.
Now Ye Zi's answer was completely as Valentine expected, and he was very happy.
"Bruce, I'll be visiting the Shencheng Symphony Orchestra tomorrow afternoon, and I hope you can let me hear the beautiful performance again."
"As you wish," Ye Zi smiled faintly: "Javier, I won't let you down." ”
……
At 1:30 p.m. the next day, Valentine, accompanied by members of the Shencheng Spring Organizing Committee, arrived at the Shencheng Symphony Orchestra on time on Xiangnan Road in the central city. In the rehearsal hall, Ye Zi, Chen Xieyang and the members of the orchestra have been waiting for a long time.
"Guys," Chen Xieyang stood on his podium and said in a rare stern tone, "Today, we are honored to welcome the famous composer of country F, Javier. Mr. Valentine's arrival! ”
The applause rang out enthusiastically, and the performers were very face-saving.
Valentine's work is not as great as the great names in the history of music, but it is also famous among contemporary composers. Especially since he is not yet 50 years old, he still has enough time and great possibility to create more excellent works that will be handed down to the world, and the musicians have given enough respect and enthusiasm for the arrival of such a composer with real materials.
If someone else comes, no matter who it is, it's nice to be able to give you a few rounds of applause. Want to convince these virtuosos? It's easy, take out your goods!
Out of stock? Lao Tzu doesn't care if you are at the department level or at the ministerial level!
This is the arrogance of the performers or artists! (To be continued.) )
