Reborn as a great painter, with a system, you can be willful

"Director Xiao, thank you for your support."

"Mr. Wu, please give me more valuable suggestions."

"Reporter Cheng, thank you for your help." After a symposium ended, Jiang Zhe shook hands with everyone who participated in the symposium to express his gratitude.

After returning to the capital, Jiang Zhe has participated in several promotional activities in three days.

Today, the people participating in the symposium are mainly from the Artists Association and people in the circle, and some are staff from the Culture, Tourism and Federation of Literary and Art Circles.

When an elderly teacher said goodbye to Jiang Zhe, he said, "Your winning of this award has set an example for many young painters, including us old people. Many painters have won awards abroad, but there are too few awards as influential as the Biennale."

Facing the compliments, Jiang Zhe could only be modest. This time when he returned to the capital, he clearly felt that the attitudes of others towards him had changed significantly.

After the discussion, those who had things to do were in a hurry to leave, while those who had nothing to do stayed and walked out while chatting with Jiang Zhe.

Several older teachers were about to reach the stage of no desire or ambition. But today, during the symposium, when talking with Jiang Zhe about some details of the Biennale, they couldn't help but be interested.

They have come to where they are today after going through different stages of learning and have also gone abroad to study or gain experience, and they know how difficult it is to win awards abroad.

Although this is the first time they meet today, they are willing to establish a good relationship with Jiang Zhe.

Meng Xi was waiting in the shade outside the building. She heard that Jiang Zhe was coming to attend the discussion, so she made an appointment with him to meet here.

Watching Jiang Zhe and several veteran painters walking out of the hall, talking and laughing, they looked like old friends.

She couldn't help but think of the banquet yesterday evening.

My teacher and a group of friends got together with Jiang Zhe.

When friends get together, everyone chats in a relaxed state.

Jiang Zhe was not as cautious as he was during the promotion. When talking about his experience in Venice, he mentioned the invitation from the Venice Academy of Fine Arts.

Meng Xi remembered that several teachers had very subtle expressions after hearing what Jiang Zhe said. These teachers had also studied abroad for a long or short period of time.

For them, studying abroad is not that mysterious, but it is not that easy either. It is even more difficult to get others to invite them actively.

If it were in the past, I would definitely be very envious. But now, I envy it, but I have a new goal.

"Jiang Zhe, how are you going back? I'll arrange a car to take you back." Several teachers asked.

Jiang Zhe declined, saying that a friend would pick him up.

Watching the people who attended the discussion boarding the bus and leaving, he walked towards Meng Xi. "You must be getting impatient."

"No. Do you have any other activities planned?"

Jiang Zhe said, "No more. I can finally relax."

"Then listen to my plan." Meng Xi said.

"Okay, let's talk while we eat."

During lunch time, Meng Xi described her business idea to Jiang Zhe.

She wanted to start with comics and animation, abandon the traditional business model, focus on the Internet model, and carry out commercial activities.

Jiang Zhe bluntly said that this plan was a bit simple and even taken for granted.

Meng Xi finished his meal quickly: "I understand that this plan is not perfect yet, I will seriously consider the model of making money.

Can you do me a favor? I want to find an internship and learn how the art world works.”

"Where do you want to go? What can I do for you?"

"I heard that Ms. Wang is going to open a branch company. Can you help me get a job there?"

Jiang Zhe thought for a moment and said, "I can help introduce you. What can you do? Also, what is your purpose in doing this?
Ms. Wang helps me run my work, and I must explain the reason to her.”

Meng Xi said: "The business plans I am making now are actually castles in the air. After all, I have no specific implementation experience, and there is often a big gap between fantasy and actual operation. So, I want to go to an art-related company for an internship.

I don't really want to go to those design and comic companies that are on the decline. Manager Wang can open a branch in the capital and help you run your work. I think she must be a capable person, so I want to go there for an internship.

The specific purpose is to learn more about how to run a business. In addition, I might be able to find some profit models through this opportunity and expand my personal network.”

However, when you introduce it to Mr. Wang, can you please not ask for my business plan first? I’m afraid of being laughed at.”

Jiang Zhe was silent for a while, actually he was quietly checking the system.

There are no new prompts in the system.

He felt that Meng Xi's consideration was very practical and would not have any impact on Wang Zhen, so he agreed.

He first called Wang Zhen to communicate.

Wang Zhen was preparing to open her branch office and asked Jiang Zhe to bring Meng Xi over for an interview.

Jiang Zhou put down the phone and said to Meng Xi, "Boss Wang is at the branch office. Let's go there now."

Jiang Zhe and Meng Xi took a taxi to Wang Zhen's branch.

Wang Zhen’s branch is in the Second Ring Road.

When we were getting closer to our destination, Meng Xi introduced what units and buildings were nearby, and he looked very familiar.

"There are still a number of buildings built in the 50s nearby. They are the earliest old residential areas. But they are all three- or four-story old buildings."

Jiang Zhe remembered that at that time, the housing prices in the capital were not that high. Should he consider buying a house?
Wang Zhen’s branch office rents a storefront in a new building.

Jiang Zhe had been here once before. He brought Meng Xi to the door of the company and introduced the situation to her.

“The first floor is mainly a cafe, and the second floor is an exhibition area and several reception rooms and office areas.”

While the introduction was going on, Wang Zhen walked out of the main door.

Jiang Zhe was about to introduce the two parties, but Wang Zhen said to Meng Xi enthusiastically, "No need for introductions, we have met before." "Mr. Wang, please give me your guidance."

"You're welcome, come in and take a look."

The three of them walked into the company. It was going to open tomorrow, and everyone in the company was busy at the moment.

There is a coffee bar and several tables on the first floor of the company where guests can rest and drink coffee.

Going up the stairs, the space becomes wider.

Wang Zhen took them to see several exhibition areas and came to the office.

"Jiang Zhe told me about your situation. I think you should not be short of living expenses, so why do you come here to work?" The three of them sat down, and Wang Zhen asked Meng Xi straight to the point.

Meng Xi told about his situation and general plan.

Jiang Zhe looked at the two of them and felt that they were both suitable for business.

From the plan to the specific conditions. Be polite when necessary. When it comes to interests, try to get them as much as possible.

Wang Zhen said, "I will open my shop tomorrow. You can come and try it out. If you are not satisfied, just tell me directly. Don't be embarrassed. Even if the deal fails, there is still friendship."

Meng Xi said: "Don't worry, I will definitely work hard here."

After the two people discussed the terms, Meng Xi directly stated that they could start working today.

Wang Zhen didn't hesitate to say that he needed to go shopping for a few things. "I'll ask the driver to take you there."

Meng Xi asked about the specific requirements and immediately gave Wang Zhen several possible purchasing locations for reference.

Wang Zhen stated his requirements and let her decide the rest.

Meng Xi was very decisive and started working immediately.

Jiang Zhe and Wang Zhen watched through the window as the company-arranged vehicle left.

Wang Zhen said, "This little girl is a good talent. If she is trained, she will become a talent. She is humble, determined and ambitious. I really didn't notice her before. How did you find her?"

Jiang Zhe said: "I didn't realize it either. It was she who suggested coming to work this time."

Wang Zhen asked, "You are helping me like this, but you are not going to do anything to me, are you?"

Jiang Zhe quickly denied: "No. I wouldn't do that."

"You help her, don't you ask for anything?"

Jiang Zhe said, "Yes. If she really succeeds in her career, I can be considered as investing in her in advance, and I can also earn some dividends and become a shareholder or something."

Wang Zhen smiled: "I really didn't realize you would have such an idea."

Jiang Zhe said, "I have been working with you for a long time and I have high hopes for you. We will open the business tomorrow. What else do you need?"

When it comes to business, Wang Zhen stopped teasing and said, "You can just come and help me to support the occasion. Have you called all the friends I invited?"

"Don't worry, it's settled."

The store will open tomorrow, and Wang Zhen wants to invite as many important guests as possible.

Jiang Zhe at this time is different from before. He has enough face to invite some friends, and to a certain extent, his face is even more useful than Wang Zhen's.

Seeing that Wang Zhen was very busy, Jiang Zhe did not mention the idea of ​​buying a house in the capital. Anyway, there was no rush for this day.

The next morning, the branch of Wang Zhen Gallery opened successfully. The scene was grand and lively. Many famous painters and people in the circle came to support it.

Some people came for Wang Zhen, and some came for Jiang Zhe.

In order to improve the appearance of the company, Jiang Zhe agreed to move several paintings stored in the gallery to the capital branch for exhibition. Wang Zhen also invited some painters to exhibit their works here.

Jiang Zhe saw that Meng Xi was already in good shape on the second day of work.

Whether it is receiving clients or communicating with people in the circle, I can handle it.

On the opening night, Wang Chen held a thank-you banquet.

After the banquet, Jiang Zhe told Wang Zhen that he planned to return to Binhai tomorrow.

Wang Zhen was drunk and his reaction was slow: "I won't go back with you. There are too many things to do here. If you have any questions, just call me directly.

By the way, I will arrange a car to take you there."

Jiang Zhe knew that she had a lot of things to do, so he didn't ask for a car to be sent.

The next day, Wang Zhen still sent a car and sent Meng Xi to pick up Jiang Zhe.

Before Jiang Zhe went through security, Meng Xi said, "Jiang Zhe, I will tell you as soon as my plan is complete. Will you support me?"

"Don't worry, as long as your plan is reasonable, I will be the first to support you."

"It's a word."

In the evening, Jiang Zhe flew back to Binhai.

Feeling the fresh and cool air, Jiang Zhe felt completely relaxed.

He returned to the neighborhood where his parents lived and happened to see Xiao Ka running happily around the garden.

Haven't seen this little guy in a while.

Jiang Zhe smiled.

Xiao Ka was running and saw Jiang Zhe approaching, so he stopped immediately. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly ran towards Jiang Zhe quickly.
