Reborn Scholar

Chapter 72

Although it was said that Meng Shi used the example of himself and Qi Chuan to enlighten He Si, it was obvious that He Si was deeply hurt and couldn't get over it for a while.

So Meng Shi planned to take He Si to play every day, exhausting his physical strength, so he had no time or energy to think about those things.

Playing in City B, of course Zou Jun is indispensable.

Zou Jun can play a lot more than Meng Shi, so it became a threesome.

Both Zou Jun and He Si have straight tempers, and they would start to quarrel after a few words, but they would get better after the quarrel, and on many things, their thoughts were so strangely similar.

Probably because of this, Meng Shi, who can become good friends with He Si, can also become good friends with Zou Jun. After all, Zou Jun is several years older than her.

Although He Si was in the same class as Meng Shi, she was two years older than Meng Shi, and the age difference between her and Zou Jun was small.

He Si just came here two days ago, it happened to be Sunday, Meng Shi, He Si and Zou Jun were playing like crazy.

First of all, go to the scenic spots. If you come to City B without seeing the Forbidden City or the Great Wall, that is incomplete.Of course, come from afar first!
Zou Jun drove to the Great Wall first.Originally, Meng Shi wanted Tang Jintian to buy the ticket, but Zou Jun mentioned it to Zou Kai, and Zou Kai prepared the ticket for them, and said he wanted to find a driver to go with them, but Meng Shi refused. Jun is driving, it is best for the three sisters to play together, no need to call others.

After running wildly for two days, I finished watching all kinds of surrounding attractions and the Forbidden City, and Sunday passed.

On Monday, Meng Shi had a lot of classes and couldn't spare time.Zou Jun volunteered to take He Si to play.

With Zou Jun as a local snake, Meng Shi is not afraid of anything happening.Unexpectedly, the two of them played so much that they wouldn't come at night.

Meng Shi was a little bit dumbfounded, but this crazy play would make He Si feel better, so it didn't matter.

There are not many classes on Wednesday.There are no classes in the first two periods in the morning.Meng Shi directly asked Ling Mo to drive her to the market to buy vegetables.The dishes in the morning are relatively fresh.

Ling Mo is the assistant Tang Jintian arranged for Meng Shi. The nature of this assistant is similar to that of Jiang Lei next to Han Cheng. They are all-rounders.

Ling Mo's appearance is 25, he is very shy and tender, he looks like a college student who has just left school.

Talk less, wink, and be diligent.Meng Shi was very satisfied.

After learning that Ling Mo turned out to be an international student returning from country M, Meng Shi expressed his horror.

At this time, sea turtles are still very popular. It can be said that as long as they are sea turtles, many companies and state institutions are also scrambling to get them.Ling Mo came to be her assistant willingly...

Cough, if Ling Mo was older, she would have thought nothing of it, but Ling Mo was only in his 20s. It can be said that he had just graduated with a master's degree and came to work as an assistant to Meng Shi. This mentality...is so good that Meng Shi Always surprised.

Meng Shi chatted with Ling Mo, Ling Mo just smiled shyly, "I have worked in country M for a long time, so I still know the basic situation. I have certain talents, but I am not outstanding. Many things can only be regarded as It’s just experience. Abroad, it’s not as glamorous as people think. Many people who are outstanding in China have no contacts or connections outside, and discrimination based on nationality is really difficult. The development space is not as big as that in China.”

After speaking, Ling Mo smiled again, "With your status, if I were abroad, I wouldn't even be qualified to meet you, let alone be your assistant."

The corner of Meng Shi's mouth twitched.

But she knew that Ling Mo was right.

Every year, Q University, the best institution of higher learning in the country, has countless people going abroad. They always think that they can get better development abroad, but in fact, they belong to the top talents in China. When they go abroad, they will really be discriminated against and cannot get it at all. The same development opportunities as people abroad.

Just like the phenomenon in the Chinese partner.

Although these people's life abroad is not satisfactory, but for the sake of the so-called face, they still insist on developing abroad. Even the top college students in China are unwilling to come back after washing dishes in foreign restaurants...

In short, Meng Shi had a good impression of Ling Mo.Being able to make such a clear judgment at this age proves that he has a stable heart, and with more experience, he can be released to take charge of a company.

He went to the market and picked a lot of fresh vegetables, and asked Ling Mo to take them back to the apartment and put them away by category, while Meng Shi went to class.

After two classes in the afternoon, Meng Shi went straight back to the apartment to cook.

He Si and Zou Jun called last night and said they would be back today.Meng Shi returned to the apartment and called Zou Jun to confirm before cooking.

"Sister Junjun, I've bought some food, come eat at my place tonight."

"Wow, you are finally cooking again. I want to die for your food. It is a rare delicacy in the world!" Zou Jun said exaggeratedly.

"Then you should eat more tonight."

"OK! I must prepare my stomach, and no one is allowed to compete with me tonight."

"Okay, hang up then, I'll be busy first."

"Bye, we'll be back soon." Zou Jun hung up the phone.

Zou Kai, who was walking beside Zou Jun, frowned, "The phone call from time to time?"

"Well, Shishi is cooking tonight, and there are delicious things to eat. Brother, do you want to go?" Zou Jun said casually.

"it is good."

"Uh..." Zou Jun was speechless, "Brother, that's what people say. Our girls party, what are you going to do?"

"Isn't there a male assistant at Shishi? Besides, Yan Zi probably wants to go too. Shishi likes to be lively, and there are so many people." Zou Kai said lightly.

Zou Jun pouted, "It's up to you, anyway, I don't mind all the time. But, should we settle our account first? Boss!"

He Si pulled Zou Jun, "No need, I'll buy it myself, I won't dare to come with you next time if you're like this."

Zou Kai smiled slightly, "It's okay, you are friends from time to time, and you are all on your own."

Zou Kai's aura was stronger than Zou Jun's, and He Si couldn't argue any more, thinking about secretly giving the money to Meng Shi, and then asking Meng Shi to return it to these people, although they might not care about a little money, but She didn't want these people to think that Meng Shi's friends were all taking advantage of things.

Just the amount at checkout later...

He Si wanted to cry.She doesn't have enough living expenses for a year, okay?

Zou Jun kept stuffing things into her hands just now, as if she didn't want money.

Without blinking his eyes, Zou Kai asked the cashier to directly print the order, sign, and go through the internal process.

"I still have something to do, you go back first, I'll go when I'm done." Zou Kai originally came to the mall to find something to do with the manager, but when Zou Jun saw him at the door, he was directly arrested to pay the bill. .

After paying the bill, it's useless to ask Zou Kai, Zou Jun waved her hand directly, "Go and do your work, we're leaving first."

In the evening, it really is a big table!
West Lake Vinegar Fish, Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs, Braised Lion Head, Vegetarian Stir-fried Choy Sum, Garlic Fungus, Braised Pleurotus Oyster Mushroom, Spicy Chicken and a pork belly wrapped chicken, followed by cold bitter gourd leaves and cold lotus root.

After the full table was finished, what Meng Shi wanted to do most was to take pictures with his mobile phone, and then Aite Hancheng.

It's a pity that this kind of thing can't be done until at least ten years later. It feels really hard not to show off.

However, this move really surprised everyone who came.

Originally there were only three Meng Shi sisters plus Ling Mo. Meng Shi didn't plan to do a lot, but Zou Jun called back to say that Tong Yan and Zou Kai were coming too, so she did a little more.

In the end, not only Zou Kai and Tong Yan came, but also Zhong Qinnian and Zhou Hanzhi.

The matter is very simple, Zhou Hanzhi returned to City B for a few days on business, he was not allowed to leave his post without authorization, so he hadn’t been with his brothers for more than half a year, he called Zou Kai and Tong Yan, but learned that they were all coming to Meng time here.

It just so happened that Zhou Hanzhi had just learned from Zhong Qinnian that Meng Shi and Han Cheng's affairs, of course he wanted to come and see, so... the big table was filled.

Fortunately, Meng Shi cooked a lot of dishes, otherwise it would not be enough.

Here at Meng Shi, it wasn't socializing, they didn't drink any alcohol, they just concentrated on eating and chatting, cough, they mostly ate vegetables.

A large table of dishes and rice was eaten up.

The thing that cooks are most afraid of is that after working hard for half a day, there are a lot of dishes left that no one eats, so it feels really good to be eaten up!

There were too many people, and Meng Shi's place seemed a bit crowded. After dinner, everyone went to Jinding together.

Zou Jun had already urged He Si to sing. Jinding's facilities are first-class, which cannot be compared with the KTV outside.

Besides, He Si is leaving on Friday, and she is ready to see the courtyard house in City B tomorrow, so she definitely doesn't have time to sing, tonight is the best.

Everyone has no objection.

When they arrived at Jinding, Zou Jun led He Si to sing.

At first He Si couldn't let go, but who is Zou Jun, a master at activating the atmosphere!He sang soon, and He Si let go, singing and laughing, very happy.

The Ziwei Hall was very large, even if He Si and Zou Jun sang there, Meng Shi and the others could still talk calmly here.

"Shishi, you said to launch a shopping card?" Zou Kai asked with raised eyebrows.

"That's right, a shopping card that can be recharged like a bank card. Of course, there are also matching promotions and discounts, such as paying 100 yuan to get ten yuan, etc. The specific amount has to be investigated by everyone. Not only In this way, many preferential activities can be planned. For example, customers who spend a certain amount in the supermarket every year can participate in a lucky draw. The gifts can be overseas travel or domestic travel, and the lower ones are various home appliances. Just a piece of toilet paper is fine, 100% winning... Wait, there are many ways, let the marketing planning department think about it."

Meng Shi said simply.

Zou Kai smiled wryly and shook his head, "Shishi, every time I hear you talk, it makes me want to fire the marketing team."

"Thank you for the compliment." Meng Shi was also not polite.

"Century Mall in City B has been doing well in all aspects since its opening. Next, I plan to promote it to other first-tier cities in China, and I'm doing market research now." Zou Kai added.

Meng Shi nodded, "Well, the past few years are a good time for development. If you miss the opportunity, it will be difficult. What else, you can cooperate with Brother Yan's company to select suitable artists. When the mall opens, Ribbon cutting or something, or artists who create some hot topics, shopping in malls, etc...or, malls simply sponsor the filming of some modern urban dramas, etc., are all ways to increase popularity."

Tong Yan blinked, "Shishi, you really don't let it go at all."

"Use everything. Oh, by the way, Brother Yan, what did you say to me last time? It's hard for new artists to come out?" Meng Shi asked.

Tong Yan hurriedly said, "That's right! Our company has produced a lot of scripts and filmed a lot of dramas, but the problem is that even if many dramas are filmed, they may not have a chance to be broadcast. And a certain red The artist who has become famous, the audience wants to continue to see his TV dramas, etc. Anyway, the hotter the redder, the colder the colder."

Meng Shi thought for a while, then looked at Tong Yan, "Have you done the ratings survey? What type of program is it, and what are the main audiences? What is the current popularity of Pearl TV? We should pay attention to the ratings of TV stations at different time periods. crowd, and then put out programs in a targeted manner.”

"Our channel is still very good at present. Many people say that even if our channel is an advertisement, people don't want to change the channel." Tong Yan was very excited.

"Almost forgot." Meng Shi patted his forehead.

At this time, there are quite a lot of advertisements on TV stations, because there are no regulations, let alone orders that do not allow commercials to be inserted in the middle of the episode. Basically, one episode of a TV series lasts four to 10 minutes, and you can have three to four episodes in the middle. advertisment.After one episode, the advertising time is even longer than the episode time.

"Advertising! All the advertisements on our station are not vulgar, innovative and creative. We have already achieved this, and we will continue to maintain it. But the time and frequency of advertisements must also be controlled! For other stations, after the opening song is played, an advertisement will be added, and the broadcast will start for 5 minutes. There are three or four commercials in the middle, and the most hateful thing is that after one commercial, there will be an ending song! After that, there will still be commercials.”

Meng Shi started to complain, "This kind of situation will really make the audience very irritable. If it's a new drama that they haven't seen, they might still be patient and wait, but if it's a rerun, who has the patience to wait? Reduce advertising time and frequency!"

Tong Yan frowned, "Then the income of the TV station has been greatly reduced."

"Not necessarily!" Meng Shi said, "As long as our ratings are high, the price of a single advertisement can be raised to make up for the loss caused by insufficient quantity."

"Will the advertisers be willing to accept it?"

Meng Shi glared at Tong Yan, then looked directly at Zou Kai, "Brother Kai, tell me, would you rather spend 100 million yuan to place an advertisement on a TV station with a high ratings for a year, or would you like to advertise on a TV station with twice the ratings?" a month?"

Zou Kai smiled, "Of course it's the latter."

Meng Shi smiled, and looked at Tong Yan again, "Don't our station still have a lot of variety shows? Pay attention to let the host guide the audience, and develop a loyal viewing habit for this station. Of course, the news of the significant reduction in advertisements must also be passed. All the media are well-known for their propaganda! At that time, our station will have fewer advertisements, trendy content, and good-looking TV series, why should the audience endure those TV stations that are much worse than ours?"

Tong Yan was completely speechless, raised his glass and drank it down, "High!"

After drinking, Tong Yan laughed again, "What did you specially call for signatures last year, Qing Gong Gege? It seems to be called this name, and it will start broadcasting soon. Normal publicity? Or should we focus on publicity?"

Meng Shi was startled, and couldn't help coughing lightly.That's right, this was indeed signed by her on purpose. The filming was done by a company in T Island, and there were actors from T Island and mainland China.

After reading the script at that time, the company was puzzled.

This kind of script, let the company's script doctor choose it at will, and they can pick out countless mistakes, which is simply called endless mistakes.In the past, if the company's screenwriter came up with such a script, he would definitely be directly shot by Boss Meng.But now this one was actually called by Boss Meng himself!

Many people want to know why.

Meng Shi only explained one sentence at the time, "Occasionally a change of taste, if the audience doesn't like it, don't choose it in the future."

This explanation is weak.But it turned out to be Meng Shi's roll call, so let's sign it.

But almost no one is optimistic about the ratings of this drama.

Meng Shi was also a little apprehensive.

The reason why Grid was successful in the past is because before Grid, there was no such refreshing thing.But now, because of her, many TV dramas with a fusion of classic dog-blood plots have appeared, and the appetite of the audience has been slowly being cultivated.

For example, the ratings of the first episode of Blue Unrequited Love were as high as 30.00%, and the ratings of the rerun were not low.Although it has not reached more than 50.00% of Ge Ge's previous sky-defying [-]%, it is still very good, very good.

In the following time, there are still two or three TV dramas with an audience rating of over 30.00%...

Meng Shi is also not sure whether Ge Ge can regain the glory of the past.

But she doesn't bother to worry about these, if it's brilliant or not, that's it.

"Normal publicity is fine," Meng Shi replied.

Tong Yan was a little puzzled, but did not object.

Several people started talking about Zhong Qinnian and Zhou Hanzhi again.

Zhou Hanzhi's troops are stationed in Province H, which belongs to the G Military Region.As for Zhong Qinnian, he will soon be appointed as the top leader of City Y, a subsidiary of Province H.

"Nianzi, you've done a good job." Zou Kai congratulated directly.

Tong Yan also smiled and said, "Don't worry, young man, when the time comes, just ask Akai or Chengzi to pull a few projects from you. Do you want anything? All problems have been solved, so the GDP is still rising. "

Zhong Qinnian was helpless, "It's so easy, how many people are watching. If you make a wrong step, you will be lost forever."

Meng Shi frowned.

"What's the matter?" Sitting next to Meng Shi, Zou Kai asked when he saw that her face was not looking well.

Meng Shi looked up at Zhong Qinnian, "Brother Nian, I remember our country had a meteorological meeting at the beginning of this year?"

Zhong Qinnian nodded, "Yes. I'm afraid this year will not be peaceful."

"What's the matter?" Tong Yan seldom pays attention to this aspect, so he doesn't know much.

Zou Kai, on the other hand, knows a lot, "It means there may be floods, right?"

Zhong Qinnian hummed, "Many experts have put forward their opinions. This year, when the flood season arrives, there may be major floods in the Northeast and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River."

Tong Yan stared, "Damn it, then City Y is right next to the Yangtze River!"

Zhong Qinnian was helpless, "So what? I can only pray that the disaster will be less, and the loss of human, material and financial resources will be less. There is nothing else to do. Natural disasters, who can do anything about it."

Meng Shi remembers very clearly that in 98, there was a great flood, and her hometown hadn't been affected too much, but it was still a vast ocean.However, many people were sacrificed in the fight against floods and disaster relief.

No way, absolutely no way.

The National Meteorological Department is not free to eat. Through the analysis of the world climate, the possibility of flood disasters has been predicted as early as the beginning of 98, and the country even held a special meeting to study these.

But the problem is that it is really difficult. Even if you prepare in advance, when the disaster strikes, there is still not enough preparation.

"Anyway, when that time comes, people can't be left without food. Stock up on food and medicine. The country's current reserves are definitely not enough, and scheduling will be a problem when the time comes." Meng Shi sighed, "I don't understand these either. Brother Nian, you must be able to think of more than me."

Zhong Qinnian sighed, "I've already thought of a lot of things, but the problem is that I don't have money. I can't move local finances at will, and I must have a short time to go. If I go further, I will be more Can't move."

Meng Shi couldn't laugh or cry, "Brother Nian, if you want money, just ask."

Zhong Qinnian smiled, "Cheng, I originally wanted to ask Chengzi for money, but since he's not here, I can't wait any longer. It's the same if I ask you first. Anyway, his money is no different from yours."

Meng Shi was speechless, these people really never forgot to tease themselves.

"Not too good?" Zou Kai suddenly said.

"Why is it not good, Chengzi's whole body is full of time, there is no need to ask Chengzi about such a small matter." Tong Yan said carelessly.

Zou Kai frowned, "Brothers are still clear about their accounts. Shishi and Chengzi's affairs are separated. It's not good to make random decisions. Nianzi, I have some spare money here if you want it."

"Brother Kai, do you still have money?" Meng Shi looked suspicious, "Aren't you already preparing for those shopping malls? Didn't you talk about loans before... Cough, it's not convenient to transfer funds."

As she said that, she looked at Zhong Qinnian again, "Han Cheng's place should be fine, but I also have idle funds here, so I don't need to ask Han Cheng, I'll ask Brother Tian to count it tomorrow. Brother Nian, just ask Tian for how much you want. Brother said it was done."

Zhong Qinnian clapped his hands, "Shishi, brother thank you. No matter what, this money brother will make you spend it well!"

Meng Shi waved his hand, "Don't mention this, I don't like to hear it. Regarding the money, I will ask Brother Tian to give you another plan."

The subsequent topic revolved around Zhou Hanzhi. Knowing that Zhou Hanzhi was actually "scared" back by a tough female military doctor, the brothers laughed mercilessly...

In the evening, Ling Mo drove Meng Shi and He Si back to the apartment.

He Si was taking a bath, and Meng Shi called Han Cheng.

"Still busy?" After asking, Meng Shi was a little embarrassed. She found that the first sentence she made every time she called was these three words... This is really...

"I just finished my work, and I'm going back to the hotel now. How about you?" Han Cheng's voice was tired, deep and hoarse, and after the conversion of radio waves, it was extraordinarily sexy.

"Just came back from Jinding."

"Yanzi Nianzi, they all went?"

"Well, there are Brother Kai and Brother Zhou." Meng Shi said, and then laughed again, "I ate all the food at my place at night. I looked at the clean plate and it was very interesting. A sense of accomplishment."

Han Cheng was jealous, "Shi Shi."

"what?"

"I'm hungry."

"..." Meng Shi was speechless and distressed, "Didn't you eat well tonight?"

"We're in a meeting, we'll run out of time after two bites." Han Cheng said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Gao Sen, the special assistant sitting in the co-pilot, clenched his briefcase tightly!

You obviously ate a lot of spicy food tonight, and you said you only ate two bites to cheat the boss's concern, Mr. Han, can you be more shameless?

Obviously, Gao Sen's inner roar could not be heard by a certain party, and he was still pretending to be pitiful.

"Shishi, don't cook for them in the future."

"what?"

"I'm jealous."

"..." Meng Shi couldn't help but touch his forehead.

"Especially, when they have something to eat and I don't have it, I'm even more jealous."

"..."

After talking nonsense for a while, Meng Shi talked about Zhong Qinnian asking for money when he was in Jinding, and then Zou Kai disagreed with Meng Shi making decisions for Han Cheng.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while.

Just when Meng Shi thought something was wrong, Han Cheng said, "Shishi, Yanzi is right."

"what?"

"I am all yours, and everything else is yours."

"……Oh."
