63. The calm before the storm
Josh didn't expect the conversation to be like this, she was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said, "Don't talk nonsense, what am I calling Director Jiang for in the middle of the night?" ”
Xue Lanlan saw Josh's reaction, and her heart was inseparable, she didn't say anything, and walked directly to Josh and said, "I'll just ask casually, don't be nervous, I'll go to work first." ”
After she finished saying this, she walked directly past Josh and walked to her place, and Josh looked at Xue Lanlan's back at this time and frowned slightly.
I don't know if it's a woman's intuition, Josh always felt that there was definitely a problem with Xue Lanlan and the female intern, but on the contrary, she couldn't say anything and couldn't do anything, so she could only stare at Xue Lanlan's back like this.
Xue Lanlan, whose back was about to be stared out of a hole, sorted out the things on the table very calmly, and then she directly hit the producer of the title film and television drama on the Internet.
Xue Lanlan was engrossed in watching it, and she didn't notice that there were still people approaching behind her when she was checking these, and Xue Lanlan found that the production team and producer this time were the same as the previous one.
According to the intern's words, she escaped so much at that time, and she didn't give them face, so it stands to reason that it is understandable not to cooperate here, but what does it mean this time?
She felt more and more that Jiang Yi should have something to hide from the company, the same team, the joint name became the title, and there was a deliberate operation with interns.
The more Xue Lanlan thought about it, the more she couldn't think about it, and at that moment, a hand was on Xue Lanlan's shoulder, followed by a slow voice: "What are you checking here so seriously?" ”
Xue Lanlan felt a hand behind her back, and she didn't dare to close the page immediately, she knew that if she closed the page at this time, then she was telling Jiang Yi that she had a problem
She calmed down and paused: "Director Jiang, I hope that the next time someone works here, you won't have to carry out a raid." ”
"You don't look like you're scared either." Xue Lanlan listened to Jiang Yi's words, rolled her eyes, and then took the initiative to say, "I'm watching the director and producer of this show." ”
"I know them all, they happen to be coming at noon, do you want to have a meal together?" When Director Jiang asked this, he clasped Xue Lanlan with one hand, so that she couldn't run when she got up.
Xue Lanlan paused and said, "Just take me there?" ”
"That's right, this time it's just a gathering of friends, and I'll show you your face." Director Jiang paused, showed a somewhat ambiguous and greasy smile, and said, "After all, we had that kind of relationship before, and it is right to take care of you more." ”
What kind of relationship is that relationship? Please, let him be clear! Xue Lanlan rolled her eyes in her heart speechlessly, she stepped back silently and said: "But you took me away to meet the people over there, what should Team Leader Qiao do, Director Jiang doesn't want to be called unfairly, otherwise it would be more appropriate to call Team Leader Qiao." ”
After Xue Lanlan finished speaking, she looked at Josh, and found that Josh was not in the seat, and the intern was not in the seat, Xue Lanlan couldn't sit still all of a sudden.
At this time, Jiang Yi looked at his watch and said, "Team Leader Qiao, I haven't found it since just now, and it's not too early now, so we can't let the guests wait for us." ”
After Jiang Yi finished speaking, he patted Xue Lanlan's shoulder and said, "Let's go!" Team Leader Qiao wasn't so careful. ”
Xue Lanlan saw that Jiang Yi had talked about this, so she didn't say much, she knew that she couldn't avoid this meal, but she didn't know what the reason Jiang Yi insisted on pulling her to eat this meal, she couldn't have FA love at noon, right?
"Okay, then I'll tidy up my things and go to the parking lot to find you." Xue Lanlan watched Jiang Yi go downstairs before she slowly got up, she sent a text message to the intern girl on the way to the parking lot out of caution, asking where she was, Xue Lanlan did this because she was concerned about the scene where Josh and the intern girl disappeared together.
When Xue Lanlan came to the underground parking lot, he saw Jiang Yi's angry red Porsche at a glance, and he saw that this car should have just been bought, you must know that this is much more expensive than his original X5.
Tsk, how did he change cars?
In just a few seconds when Xue Lanlan was in a daze, Jiang Yi on the other end had already honked the horn several times, Xue Lanlan hurriedly sat down, she looked at Jiang Yi in the car, paused and said, "When did you change the car?" ”
"It's been changed a long time ago, does it look good?" Jiang Yi said with a smug face, turned his head and turned on the music, and the sound with a cool melody slowly came out of the stereo.
Xue Lanlan squinted and lay on the luxurious cushion, and then hummed softly: "The car is very good, but it shouldn't be cheap, I think this car is much more expensive than your last one, how long have you been here, is the director so profitable?" ”
Xue Lanlan's teasing words, how could Jiang Yi not hear it, he frowned slightly, and then snorted lightly: "You, why are you so worried, rest assured that my money is clear, and I am not greedy for anything about the company." ”
"Huh? Did I say you're greedy for the company? Xue Lanlan pretended to look at Jiang Yi innocently, Jiang Yi didn't pay attention to her topic this time, but continued to drive calmly.
The car soon arrived at the restaurant, Jiang Yi chose a Japanese restaurant this time, and the first thing he could see when he entered the store was a waiter walking around in a kimono.
"Hello, how many of you are there?"
"Five, there has been a reservation, the surname is Jiang, and the phone number is xxx." Jiang Yi reported the information with ease, and the waiter also took them inside.
Along the long corridor, Xue Lanlan saw the Japanese-style Japanese-style houses next to her at a glance.
And this way is all pebble, potholes to the touch, there are several ponds next to it, close to the edge of the pond can also see fish, shrimp and lotus.
"The Japanese food here is very good, because the price is high, and it has not yet entered the popular Internet celebrity stores, so there are not many people coming." Jiang Yi approached Xue Lanlan and deliberately bit his ear.
Xue Lanlan nodded on her face, but in fact, she walked to the side, which was beyond the range that Jiang Yi could reach, and at this moment, the waitress who was walking in front of her to lead the way suddenly turned her head, and then stood aside and said: "It's here, two, if you want to add food, please press the call bell inside, I wish you a happy meal." ”
As she spoke, the waitress bowed 90 degrees and stood aside, waiting for them to enter.
Although the Japanese restaurant that Xue Lanlan went to before had a good service attitude, it was not so exaggerated, Jiang Yi took the lead in entering the box, and Xue Lanlan followed closely.
After Xue Lanlan entered, she saw the other three men on the table except Jiang Yi, how to say short, fat, and frustrated, they were all occupied.
"Come on, come on, let me introduce you, this is Lao Zhang, and he is also the chief director of this drama, this is the head of our investment department, you know."
Xue Lanlan heard Jiang Yi say this and set her eyes on that old Zhang, how to describe it? This old Zhang is very fat, his visual weight is definitely over 200 pounds, he is about 1.8 meters tall, plus that layer of fat, a person can sit on two benches.
Even if you are fat, Xue Lanlan has never been a person who discriminates against fat people, the most important thing is that this person has thief eyebrows, the look in the eyes of the two mung beans and the strange laughter of 'hehe'.
Xue Lanlan glanced at the man sitting opposite, and although she felt uncomfortable for a while, she still nodded in greeting, after all, the other party is also a director, and the face that should be given is still given!
Xue Lanlan took a breath, and Jiang Yi continued to introduce: "This is the producer and one of the representatives of the investor this time, surnamed Li. ”
"Hello, Mr. Li." When Xue Lanlan spoke, she deliberately looked at Mr. Li, who was about one meter and six meters tall, lean and lean, like malnutrition, and then when he smiled, he could still see a mouth full of yellow teeth.
That Mr. Li leaned over and reached out to shake Xue Lanlan's hand, and said with a smile: "Team Leader Xue, I am fortunate to meet you." ”
"I'm glad I will." Xue Lanlan shook hands with a smile, and the producer surnamed Li stepped forward to shake hands and said, "That, Team Leader Xue, let me ask you something, do you have a boyfriend?" ”
Xue Lanlan's hand was held, and then she realized that she wanted to pull it, but she couldn't pull it.
"Hahahaha, I have an ex-boyfriend." After Xue Lanlan finished speaking, she glanced at Jiang Yi intentionally or unintentionally, and then immediately changed the topic and said, "Then the last surname is ......"
"He is from the platform side, his surname is Zhao, just call him Mr. Zhao," Jiang Yi took Xue Lanlan's words and hurriedly introduced the last one.
Xue Lanlan took advantage of this and immediately pulled out her hand.
Xue Lanlan looked at this person on the platform side, and had to say that if the first Mr. Zhang was just fat and the second Mr. Li was just short, then the last one was simply a perfect combination of two people! Stepping on the nose, he is short and fat, and he can't see the shining point on the whole person.
Xue Lanlan wondered, where did this Jiang Yi get so many talents?
Jiang Yi saw that everyone had finished introducing him, so he quickly clapped his hands, and then said, "Okay, everyone is also idle, eat, come and eat." ”
Xue Lanlan was a little cautious and chose to eat next to the door, because of the Japanese food, the speed of serving the food was very fast.
"Come on, Team Leader Xue can taste it, the sashimi here is very authentic and tastes very good." It was Lao Zhang who spoke, and he used bitten chopsticks to clip a piece of salmon to Xue Lanlan, with a smiling face that was a little flattering.
Xue Lanlan looked at Jiang Yi, and finally endured the discomfort and ate the salmon, she said lightly: "I don't like to eat Japanese food, please don't mind, this time I came to get acquainted with everyone, after all, we may be able to cooperate in the future, right?" ”
Xue Lanlan said this, her eyes fell on Jiang Yi, she has never been a picky eater, and relatively speaking, she likes to eat Japanese food, so after she said this, she was a little worried that Jiang Yi would demolish her.
However, Xue Lanlan thought about it, Jiang Yi didn't say anything, and the others called the menu and ordered some hot dishes, such as stir-fried miscellaneous vegetables, which were indistinguishable delicacies.
Xue Lanlan ate very carefully during the whole dinner, originally she thought that Jiang Yi would lead her to the dinner so stubbornly, and Bacheng was to pour wine, but she didn't expect that it was the whole dinner, let alone a sip of wine, and she didn't even have a fruit wine drink.
Everyone chose to drink barley tea, without exception.
Could it be that bringing her here this time was just a simple formality? Xue Lanlan couldn't help but be a little puzzled, she always felt as if she had forgotten something, something was wrong.
Just when Xue Lanlan was thinking deeply, Jiang Yi's mobile phone next to him rang, Jiang Yi put his mobile phone on the table from the moment he entered the box, and when it rang, it was very loud, and almost everyone saw it.
Xue Lanlan didn't mean it, but at that glance, she saw Jiang Yi's mobile phone display, and his name was written:
- Little Gongju
A small public act? Should it be a girl, a girlfriend or a special object? Xue Lanlan secretly thought in her heart, maybe Jiang Yi's recent actions had an impact on her three views, making her always feel that the current Jiang Yi was a sea king.
Xue Lanlan thought so in her heart and put her hand aside, at this time she saw Jiang Yi holding the phone and going out as he walked, he paused and said, "I'll answer the phone, you guys talk first." ”
Xue Lanlan saw Jiang Yi go out, and the alarm bell rang in her heart, and sure enough, as soon as Jiang Yi went out, the producer Li rubbed over restlessly, and he said: "I heard that there are two managers in your company's investment department, is that manager as beautiful as you?" ”
"She's better looking than me." Xue Lanlan picked up the barley tea, raised her eyebrows and said, "What, Producer Li is curious?" ”
"That's, don't look at me like this, I'm still a single dog, no, why don't you look for opportunities from around, right?" Xue Lanlan looked at the three people eating in front of her, and suddenly understood why they were still single, Xue Lanlan paused and said, "The other team leader has a boyfriend." ”
"Hey, that's a pity, but it's good that Team Leader Xue doesn't have a boyfriend." Producer Li said as he picked up a piece of tempura with chopsticks and put it in Xue Lanlan's bowl, he said, "Come on, come on, Team Leader Xue eat more, you are too thin." ”
"......" Xue Lanlan took a deep breath, and then paused: "Thank you." ”
She looked up at Director Zhang, and didn't immediately move the tempura with chopsticks, but said directly: "That, let me ask if we have found actors in this show?" ”
"Not yet, I just got the investment, but the platform side stuffed a little girl to play the female number three, because this role is more pleasing." Director Zhang paused, looked at Xue Lanlan and asked, "What's the matter, does Team Leader Xue have a recommendation?" ”
"No, no, I'll just ask."
"Hey, filming is not easy these days, but our drama is not bad, I think you have also watched the content, as long as the investment can keep up, little pink will definitely not be a problem."
"I hope so." Xue Lanlan didn't know what to say, so she said a few words in response to the topic and it was over.
Probably because Xue Lanlan was more embarrassed to chat, no one picked up the topic here, and all of them ate lightly, and sometimes Xue Lanlan also understood the wine table culture of Chinese business.
People, this creature is really only when it is stimulated by alcohol will be more able to release itself, and the reason why the wine table is rarely cold in the general wine table is also the same.
Just when everyone was not talking, the door in the box was opened again, Jiang Yi smiled at the door with the phone, he swept the audience, stayed on Xue Lanlan, and said as he walked in: "How are you talking?" ”
Xue Lanlan took a few bites of food very calmly, and then raised her eyes to look directly at Jiang Yi, who had achieved the position, and said, "It's okay to chat, several people from the producer are very interesting, it's just ...... Director Jiang, it's almost time for the afternoon! ”
Because there was still a meeting to be held, Xue Lanlan specially reminded Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi glanced at Xue Lanlan, raised his finger and pointed to the place name watch on his wrist and hurriedly smiled: "Yes, now the lunch break is not long, I have to go back early." ”
After Jiang Yi finished speaking, he picked up the bill next to him and asked Xue Lanlan, "Have you finished eating?" ”
"Hmm." Xue Lanlan, who had already put down her chopsticks, glanced at Jiang Yi and nodded.
Jiang Yi nodded, and then said to the three people over there: "We still have classes to go to class in the afternoon, we have to go back first." ”
"Okay, I know you're busy, so I'm here to meet you today." It was Lao Zhang who spoke, he paused, and asked with a fat face: "We will meet again next week, and I hope Team Leader Xue will take care of me at that time." ”
Xue Lanlan has a few points in her heart to meet next week, she knows that there are many details to talk about in the exclusive title investment, even though Xue Lanlan has a very bad impression of the other party's appearance, but she still did it on the surface.
Xue Lanlan took a deep breath, then got up and followed Jiang Yi out of the private room and said, "Then wait for the next meeting." ”
When Xue Lanlan completely walked out of the Japanese restaurant, she stopped Jiang Yi: "Jiang Yi." ”
When there is no one around, Xue Lanlan sometimes calls him by his name.
Jiang Yi, who was named, did not stop immediately, but directly pulled away from his car, and said while sitting on it: "What's wrong?" ”
Xue Lanlan looked at Jiang Yi with a calm face, and always felt that something was wrong in her heart, she frowned and said, "Not much, I just want to ask why you brought me here this time." ”
"I haven't said it several times, in order to make you familiar with the familiar face, it is more appropriate for you to talk about it later." As soon as Jiang Yi's words fell, he opened the car door and motioned for Xue Lanlan to get into the car as well.
Xue Lanlan sat in the car and didn't look at him, but put on her seat belt and said lightly: "I hope it's really that simple." ”
After Xue Lanlan finished speaking, she no longer paid attention to Du Peng, but turned her head indifferently to look out the window.
The time when the two of them arrived at the company was just right, because Jiang Yi wanted to stop, Xue Lanlan went up in advance, and as soon as she entered the company, she smelled something wrong.
She saw the intern girl sitting in her place, eating a boxed lunch with her head down.
It's afternoon, how can she eat? Xue Lanlan frowned and walked over and asked, "Why are you only eating now?" ”
The intern girl was taken aback by Xue Lanlan's move, she hurriedly avoided Xue Lanlan's gaze, and said resignedly: "I'm too busy at noon." ”
How can an intern be busy? And she was quite confident in drinking and talking to herself before, what the hell is going on now?
