Chapter 3 Improvement of Relationships
When Gu Cong returned home in the evening, An Shufen looked at him in embarrassment, "Really don't you tell Ah Yuan your contact information?" He's been getting old these days, and I can't help but tell him. ”
Gu Cong was stunned for a moment, "If she asks you not to say it, don't say it." That's it, and there is no superfluous explanation.
An Shufen sighed, "You guys made me uncomfortable to death, what the hell is going on with the two of them?" ”
Gu Cong took off his coat, threw it on the sofa, and then motioned to An Shufen to eat, "If you really can't stand it, go abroad to accompany her!" After a pause, he said, "Ask them about the two of them!" ”
An Shufen was stunned for a moment, deeply feeling that it was difficult to communicate with this son, but it seemed to be a good decision to go abroad, "Shall I go alone?" Would you like to check it out too? ”
originally thought that Gu Cong must veto it without hesitation, but he didn't expect him to think about it seriously, "Well, I'll send you over." ”
Until she got on the plane, An Shufen was still a little incredulous, "This is not like you!" When did you start caring about Zhizhi too? ”
Gu Cong was a little funny, and a slight smile appeared on his always serious face, "Mom, I'm your own son, but you love her so much, and now you doubt your son so much." ”
An Shufen was a little skeptical that the one in front of her was her son, would his son talk to her in such a coquettish tone?
"You seem to have changed!" An Shufen raised her eyebrows and smiled.
"What have I become?" Gu Cong's tone returned to normal, looking a little careless.
"You weren't good at all about knowing before." An Shufen appealed.
Gu Cong flipped through the magazine in his hand casually, and when he heard this, he turned his head sideways to look at his mother, his expression was very serious, "Did I beat her or scold her?" ”
"......" An Shufen was really asked, and immediately reached out and patted him, "You are so indifferent to her, you don't know how to care about it." ”
"Didn't you spoil her?" Gu Cong thought of the little girl who was a little helpless, and his heart fluctuated a little, and his tone was a little unnatural, "Who stipulated that I should be good to her?" ”
An Shufen didn't know how many times she persuaded him, asking him to take his sister to play more and talk to her more, until An Shufen herself was desperate, and Gu Cong's attitude towards Shen Youzhi did not change in the slightest. An Shufen didn't know how this son could be like this, just ask him, he didn't say a word, he could simply make people angry.
"Such a well-behaved girl, how can you bear not to be nice to her?" An Shufen's tone carried obvious distress, and there was a hint of imperceptible sadness.
Because the topic was a little sad, both of them fell silent and didn't say anything more.
Shen Youzhi bought ingredients outside and planned to go home to cook a meal by himself, but he didn't expect to smell the smell of rice as soon as he opened the door.
Shen Youzhi was taken aback, and then looked at her feet, a man and a woman with two pairs of shoes, she probably knew who it was, she hurriedly ran to the kitchen, and it was indeed An Shufen inside.
"Mom!" Shen Youzhi exclaimed excitedly, "Why are you here?" Why didn't you tell me in advance? ”
An Shufen turned her head, her eyes were smiling, and her tone was gentle, "A surprise for you!" It seems to be a success! ”
Shen Youzhi put the bag in his hand on the stove, and couldn't help but hug An Shufen, "Mom, you're so good." ”
An Shufen was afraid that the oil stains on her hands would get on her, so she raised her hand and let her hold her, "Your brother is here too!" ”
Shen Youzhi was stunned for a moment, then let go of An Shufen, turned his head to look at the living room, and saw no one, "Did he come over to talk about business?" ”
"No, I've come to see you." An Shufen's tone was obviously happy, how could she not be happy if the relationship between the two of them could get better?
With the phone call a few days ago, Shen Youzhi didn't doubt An Shufen's words, but she was still a little apprehensive and overwhelmed when facing such a person whose relationship had been deadlocked for so many years.
Before coming to the United States, Gu Cong just handed her the visa, key and address, and didn't say anything else about it, and she was too sad at that time, she didn't think that she should have the backbone to refuse Gu Cong's arrangement, and Shen didn't know how to say the first thing to him.
An Shufen saw that she was distracted, and she reached out and patted her, "Go and call your brother to dinner, it seems to be talking on the phone in the room." ”
There are three bedrooms in total, and Shen Youzhi chose the smallest one when he came. She walked to the door of the largest bedroom, knocked on it gently, and in a moment it opened, but it was the smaller one next door. Gu Cong was dressed in casual loungewear, looking at Shen Youzhi with his mobile phone in his hand.
Shen Youzhi was stunned, "Mom asked me to call you to dinner." The tone was unnatural, sounding nervous and awkward.
"Hmm," Gu Cong closed the door and took the lead in walking towards the restaurant, asking as he walked, "How was the class?" ”
"I've learned a lot." Shen Youzhi replied cautiously, feeling that Gu Cong at the moment was like a father asking about his children's studies.
With this good start, the conversation gradually let go.
Because of official business, Gu Cong didn't stay for two days and returned to China alone.
As soon as he returned to China, Fang Tao found him, and Zheng You, an artist from the company, suddenly said that he wanted him to be his agent. Zheng You is an old artist in the company, and the agent who brought her recently resigned, so I want him to take it.
It just so happened that Fang Tao recently pushed out his artist Zhang Ai to bring it to others, Shen Youzhi went abroad again, and another artist, Qin Ke, was still in school, in order to establish his image, he didn't receive many notices, so Fang Tao was naturally idle.
Originally, he didn't have to say these things to Gu Cong, but this time he told Gu Cong by surprise. In fact, he was also a little worried in his heart, Zheng You has been very famous in recent years, and Shen Youzhi has developed well, he is worried that the two will have conflicts together.
thought that Gu Cong would not care, but to Fang Tao's surprise, Gu Cong actually asked about this matter in detail, "Who brought it up?" ”
"It's Mr. Chen."
"Pushed."
Fang Tao looked at Gu Cong with an embarrassed expression, is he an employee, he is not a big name to the extent of refusing to accept the instructions of his superiors, and because Chen Yuan came to ask him Shen Youzhi's movements again and again, he has already offended him, do you want to offend him one after another? He wondered: "But how to push it? ”
Gu Cong raised his eyes to look at him, and after a long time, he pulled out a smile, "Look at your little interest, just say that the company is going to sign someone after a while, and you want to bring that, just say what I said." ”
The company really wants to sign someone, it is Shen Youzhi who met the popular singer Lu Yang in the United States, because of Shen Youzhi's appreciation, it is strongly recommended that Gu Cong sign this person.
After returning from the United States, Gu Cong and Shen Youzhi occasionally talked on the phone, and in the last phone call, she mentioned that he should sign Lu Yang, and his reply was that he needed to be considered!
After that, he deliberately went to check Lu Yang's previous works, in addition to personal appreciation, from the perspective of a businessman, Gu Cong believes that Lu Yang can bring benefits to the company.
After Fang Tao rejected Zheng You, he didn't expect Chen Yuan to find Gu Cong in person.
"Brother, I have been friends with Zheng You for a few years, she asked me to help with this, you can let Fang Tao take her!"
Chen Yuan's idea in his heart was to let Fang Tao take Zheng You, and when Shen Youzhi came back, he would find someone to take her by himself on the grounds that Fang Tao was too busy, and there would be no situation where he didn't know anything about Shen Youzhi's movements this time.
If it weren't for overhearing the conversation between him and Zheng You, Gu Cong probably really believed that the two of them were just so-called friends, at this time he didn't understand Chen Yuan's intentions, putting these two together would inevitably be a mess, right? Gu Cong believed that this was definitely not the result that Chen Yuan expected.
"I am interested in signing a male singer recently, and the other party is looking forward to cooperating with Youzhi, so I think it is best to put him with Fang Tao, you know, in my place, the company's interests are the greatest, and personal feelings are on the side." Gu Cong had a businesslike attitude, glanced at Chen Yuan opposite, and added: "As for Zheng You, the response to her works in the past two years doesn't seem to be very good, since you said that she is your friend, then I will accommodate you once, and let Amy take her and pick a script for her." ”
Amy is more than one grade higher than Fang Tao, and when it comes to this, Chen Yuan is not good at saying anything, "Then I'll tell her!" ”
"Hmm." Gu Cong looked down at the documents and responded casually, as if he didn't care, "You let her behave well, I remember that her contract is about to expire." ”
Chen Yuan knew what this meant, and this was to remind Zheng You that if she didn't perform well, the company would not consider renewing her contract.
After talking about the matter, Chen Yuan hesitated to say something but couldn't speak. Gu Cong looked up at his tangled expression, and his tone was unwavering, "Is there anything else?" ”
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, and hesitated to speak: "I want to ask if you know where you are?" As if he was afraid that Gu Cong would deny it, he didn't wait for Gu Cong to speak, so he said hurriedly, "I know that your relationship has always been bad, but Auntie must know, I went to ask a few times, but Auntie didn't tell me, and now Auntie doesn't answer my phone anymore, can you help me ask Auntie?" ”
Gu Cong was stunned for a moment, it seemed that the poor relationship between him and Shen Youzhi was well known, and in front of them, wouldn't there be a day when they got better?
"I also know how to study acting in the United States." Gu Cong thought for a while and decided to tell the truth, he felt that it was enough time for Shen Youzhi to heal, and the next time was the time to deal with the problem, she and Chen Yuan had to make it clear.
"I know this, Fang Tao told me, but where is it?" Chen Yuan looked very irritable, perhaps because he was too irritable, he didn't notice that Gu Cong's tone was a little different from before when he said Shen Youzhi's name.
"You go back first! I'll tell you more about that later. "Gu Cong needs to convince Shen Youzhi first.
"Thank you big brother for your help, you must let my aunt tell me the contact information, okay?"
Gu Cong nodded, "Hmm! ”
"Then I'll go and do things first." Chen Yuan was still anxious in his heart, but he understood that he couldn't rush too much, so he stood up and walked out the door.
"Wait," Gu Cong suddenly called out to him.
Chen Yuan stopped, turned to look at Gu Cong, and wondered, "Is there anything else?" ”
Gu Cong suddenly fell silent for a while before speaking, "Just to remind you, you are a company executive, and your personal words and deeds represent the image of the company, I don't care what is between you and Youzhi, please think twice when answering questions, otherwise just don't respond to private matters." ”
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, his face turned a little red, during this time he was always asked questions by Yu Ji, because he was upset, he didn't remember much about what he answered, but now Gu Cong reminded him, he thought that it must have been a very bad impact, he nodded, "Thank you, brother." ”
Looking at his departing back, Gu Cong's eyes were complicated, and he also wanted to remind him that he didn't want to be his enemy, provided that he really regarded himself as a brother.
