The world of film and television begins from childhood

Lu Meilin nodded without thinking and replied: "Other people don't have private rooms when they come, but if you, Mr. Zhou, come here, then there must be a private room. Please come in."

She didn't dare to be disrespectful to Zhou Chen. Firstly, it was because she still owed Zhou Chen 300,000 yuan. Secondly, she had seen Zhou Chen's ruthlessness with her own eyes. This was a master who really dared to risk his life. She was a business person. People, even Du Honggen felt terrified when facing Zhou Chen, let alone a woman.

As soon as she led Zhou Chen into Jin Meilin, she saw a short-haired waitress walking over. When she saw Zhou Chen, she hesitated for a moment and then spoke.

"Achen?"

As soon as she opened her mouth, she attracted an angry rebuke from Lu Meilin.

"Little Jiangxi, you are blind. This is Mr. Zhou, Boss Zhou. What are you talking about?"

After hearing Lu Meilin's scolding, Xiao Jiangxi was sure. She looked at Zhou Chen in disbelief. She couldn't believe that Zhou Chen had suddenly transformed into such a handsome and charming person.

Zhou Chen nodded towards Xiao Jiangxi: "Long time no see."

Then he didn't say anything else. He and Xiao Jiangxi were not from the same world, and he didn't have any thoughts about her. It was just a meet-and-greet relationship.

Lu Meilin led Zhou Chen to the private room: "Little Jiangxi is a fool. I heard that she just got a boyfriend who is a chef. She doesn't even think about it. Does she really think that just a cook can have the ability of Mr. Zhou?"

"Ok?"

Zhou Chen turned his eyes and said with a smile: "The boss lady is nodding at me?"

"No, absolutely not. Mr. Zhou is the big boss now. It's too late for me to curry favor. How can I have the courage to order you? Mr. Zhou, Jin Meilin is just like your natal family. You can come whenever you want and eat whatever you want. Just order whatever you want, come anytime, it’s free.”

"My mother's family? I am not worthy of my mother's family. As for free, forget it. They are all open for business. I am not in the habit of eating and drinking for free."

Zhou Chen sat down on the chair: "Just serve the dishes according to the minimum consumption in the private room."

Lu Meilin was stunned and asked, "Are you alone?"

"Why, you can't sit in a private room alone? I remember Jin Meilin didn't have this rule."

"Of course I can sit, of course I can sit. I'll have people prepare the food now. You wait."

Not long after Lu Meilin left, Xiao Jiangxi sneaked in again.

"Achen..."

"Is something wrong?"

Zhou Chen frowned slightly. He knew that Xiao Jiangxi had a crush on him in the past and often took the initiative to ask her out, but he refused every time. His attitude was already clear.

Now that he is better than before, it is normal for Xiao Jiangxi to have thoughts about him again, but he is not interested in Xiao Jiangxi and does not want to get entangled with her, so his attitude is relatively cold.

Feeling Zhou Chen's cold attitude, Xiao Jiangxi hesitated for a moment, but still didn't want to give up.

"Achen, you have changed so much. I heard that you have become rich and opened a restaurant for Uncle Huang. How did you make so much money all of a sudden?"

Hearing Xiao Jiangxi actually ask such a question, Zhou Chen frowned even deeper. Looking at Xiao Jiangxi's eager and expectant look, he knew that her ambition to get rich had blinded her eyes.

Although everyone wants to get rich, they are not very familiar with each other. Xiao Jiangxi actually asked him so openly, and it was obvious that ambition had overshadowed everything.

"Since you want to know, it doesn't matter if I tell you about stocks. I made my money from the stock market, but I'll give you a piece of advice. Stocks are similar to gambling and are not something you can afford."

Xiao Jiangxi looked happy. She ignored Zhou Chen's words and bowed to Zhou Chen to thank him.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou."

Looking at the leaving figure of Xiao Jiangxi, Zhou Chen sighed softly: "It is a good thing to have ambitions, but you must also have the ability to match your ambitions, otherwise..."

He shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He told her what she wanted to know and warned her. As for what choice she made, it was beyond his control.

Sitting in the private room, the dishes were served one after another. In a short while, most of the dishes were served. Zhou Chen was not prepared to eat alone, so he went out and called Wang Yuan over.

Wang Yuan has been with Zhou Chen for a week. He is used to Zhou Chen's habits. He is not surprised at all when Zhou Chen orders a table of food. Zhou Chen asks him to eat together, and he also eats with him honestly. It's just that I have to drive later and I don’t dare to drink.

After eating, Zhou Chen did not leave, but stood in front of the window, looking at the Yellow River Road outside.

It was completely dark at this time, but the Yellow River Road was still brightly lit and crowded. Pedestrians, cars, tricycles, and bicycles could be seen everywhere.

On the road, you can also see all kinds of successful people with leather bags and big shoes, as well as some nouveau riche with big gold chains and gold watches...

Huanghe Road is indeed much livelier at night than at noon, and there is an endless stream of people coming to eat. You can see guests sitting in both large and small restaurants.

Golden Phoenix used to be the most profitable hotel on Huanghe Road. Now that Golden Phoenix has collapsed, the original passenger flow has naturally been shared among other hotels. Among them, Red Heron and Jin Meilin are the hotels with the largest increase in passenger flow.

This also made Lu Meilin more ambitious, thinking about being number one on the Yellow River Road.

Although the Yellow River Road in front of him was already very lively, for some reason, Zhou Chen always felt that something was missing.

"Is it because of the lack of the True Garden?"

He thought to himself that after watching the plot of "Flowers", he really felt that there was no Zhizhen Garden on the Yellow River Road, and it seemed that there was a lot less excitement.

After eating, Zhou Chen asked Wang Yuan to pay the bill, while he walked out of Jin Meilin and headed to Jingxiu's cigarette paper shop.

"Hey, Mr. Zhou has eaten. This is your first time back since leaving Jin Meilin. I heard that you ate in a private room. Does it feel different from before?"

Zhou Chen said: "Of course it's different. I used to go to work, but today I go to consume. Can the feeling be the same? I just feel that the food cooked by Jin Meilin's new cook is not as delicious as the food cooked by my uncle."

"And this Yellow River Road always feels like it's not as lively as before. It's missing something."

Jingxiu asked: "Are you talking about Mr. Bao? It's true, since Jin Fenghuang's accident, he has never been to Huanghe Road again, not even Miss Wang. He is really not as good as before. It’s lively.”

Zhou Chen was happy. He knew that Jing Xiu liked Wang Mingzhu, but he was self-aware and mostly just watched from a distance and never crossed the line.

"Do you think it would be interesting if I added fire to Huanghe Road and made it lively?"

"what?"

Jing Xiu looked at Zhou Chen with confusion, not understanding what he meant.

Zhou Chen smiled meaningfully. Most of the guests on the Yellow River Road were businessmen. What businessmen pursue are opportunities and money, and he can give them all.

Seeing the smile on Zhou Chen's face, Jing Xiu asked keenly: "Mr. Zhou, what exactly do you want to do? Can you stop being so pretentious and tell me about it?"

Zhou Chen just smiled and said: "It's just an idea. I'll tell you after I go back and think it through. I might even ask you to help me."

Jing Xiu felt as if a hundred claws were scratching his heart: "Can't you reveal it in advance?"

"No, let's go."

Zhou Chen turned around and waved his hand. Wang Yuan drove over immediately. He got in the car and left Huanghe Road directly.

Halfway through Zhou Chen's words, Jing Xiu felt really uncomfortable. He had a hunch in his heart that Zhou Chen was really going to make a big move, but what would it be? What could possibly set Yellow River Road on fire?

With an idea in mind, Zhou Chen went to the industrial and commercial department the next day, registered a company, and then went to a specialized talent market to recruit employees.

In the evening, when he was done with his work, he asked Wang Yuan to drive him to Jinxian Road.

When he arrived at Guichengxuan, Zhou Chen saw his uncle Huang Degui in the kitchen talking to a man with slightly curly hair and a 28-year-old haircut.

"Achen, you are here."

"uncle."

Zhou Chen walked over, and Huang Degui pointed at the man in front of him and introduced: "Achen, this is Mr. Tao who delivers seafood to our restaurant."

"Mr. Tao, hello."

Tao Tao quickly wiped his hands and shook hands with Zhou Chen.

"Mr. Zhou, hello, hello, I have long admired your name, I have admired your name for a long time."

"Mr. Tao knows me?"

"I don't know him, but I heard Mr. Bao and Lingzi mention Mr. Zhou's name."

"I don't have any reputation. I'm just a nobody. I'm far behind Bao Zong."

Tao Tao was still very good at talking, and he hurriedly complimented: "Mr. Zhou is a person who has seen the world. Mr. Bao said he feels ashamed."

Zhou Chen smiled and invited: "We are destined to meet each other. If Mr. Tao is not busy, would you like to stay and have a few glasses of old wine together?"

Tao Tao knew from Abao and the others that Zhou Chen was a powerful person. Faced with Zhou Chen's invitation, he was very happy, but thinking that he still had things to do, he could only refuse.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou, there are still things to do in the store. Next time, next time I'm going to treat you, Mr. Zhou will go to Huanghe Road."

After seeing Tao Tao off, Huang Degui said: "Mr. Tao is a nice person and a solid businessman. He talks a lot and is very good at bragging."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "All the seafood in the store comes from his store?"

"No at first, you just went to Tokyo for a night before, and then he came over to make friends and give you discounts. I thought about it, so I made an order from him. It's been a few months and there have been no mistakes. .”

Zhou Chen just asked casually, what do you think of Tao Tao? He has many shortcomings, but he is also famous for being timid. It is because of his timidity that he did not really cause any big troubles in the TV series. He is indeed timid. He is Abao's best brother.

On this day, Jingxiu's cigarette paper shop welcomed a special customer, a woman wearing a white woolen coat, permed hair, and sunglasses.

"Boss, come and protect Moore."

Jingxiu glanced at the hundred-dollar bill and said, "I can't find it."

The woman said, "No need to look for it. Let me ask you, which restaurant on this road is the most profitable?"

Jingxiu held a cigarette, looked at the woman, and replied: "Golden Phoenix, it's a pity that it's closed."

The woman took the cigarette and looked at the circled golden phoenix in front of her. Her eyes shone brightly under her glasses. Then she didn't say anything, picked up her bag, turned around and left.

Jingxiu looked at the woman's leaving back with some strangeness.

Chapter 1299 Li Li, the popular CEO Zhou in Shanghai

"Jingxiu, what are you looking at?"

"Oh, Mr. Zhou, when did you come here?"

Zhou Chen came to Jingxiu's pavilion and followed his line of sight, but didn't see anything.

Jingxiu came back to her senses and said, "It's nothing. Just now, there was a strange woman who was quite beautiful. She came to buy cigarettes and asked me which restaurant on the Yellow River Road was the most profitable. I told her it was Golden Phoenix. It's a pity. It has closed down, and then she left. Mr. Zhou, do you think this woman came to inquire about the news? "

"As expected of Bao Qing, the response is very quick. What does that woman look like?"

"Didn't I tell you, she's pretty and has a big wave."

Hearing Jing Xiu's description, Zhou Chen probably understood that the person who just came to Jing Xiu to inquire about the news should be the proprietress who soon bought the Golden Phoenix and changed its name to Zhi Zhen Yuan.

Li Li.

The appearance of Li Li made Zhou Chen understand that the battle for the golden phoenix was almost coming to an end. In two or three months, Yellow River Road would be even more lively.

But before that, he decided to make Yellow River Road popular again.

"Mr. Zhou, where are you going to eat today? Is it Jin Meilin?"

Zhou Chen said: "I came here today mainly to do errands, and eating is secondary."

Jing Xiu's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked, "Is it the fire I mentioned last time?"

Zhou Chen smiled and nodded, then handed a piece of advertising paper in his hand to Jing Xiu.

Jingxiu took it over curiously and took a look.

"If you want to start a business, look for Chenxing; if you want to succeed, look for Mr. Zhou!"

This is the sentence at the top of the advertising paper, in bold black letters, followed by some slogans below.

'Chenxing Venture Capital is a good helper for entrepreneurship, a career pioneer, and a leader in success. '

'We go together through wind and rain to create a better future. '

'Love gathers strength, entrepreneurship makes dreams come true. '

'Entrepreneurship, use ideals to leverage reality. '

'The road to entrepreneurship creates a new life, and small businesses lead to big careers. '

'Looking for investment, go to Chenxing. '

'If you want to succeed, go crazy first, rush forward at all costs, and fight to be rich for three generations at a time. Only by working hard can you not fail. '

'…………'

Finally, there is a row of introductions written below, Chenxing Venture Capital Company, address...Nanjing Road..., general manager: Zhou Chen, company phone number...

At the end, there are bold and enlarged fonts, the most popular words.

No matter it is a project worth tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions, bring your plan and find Mr. Zhou, and you will be the next billionaire...

After reading the content on the advertising paper, Jing Xiu looked at Zhou Chen with a confused expression, Billionaire, do you really dare to say that?

"Mr. Zhou, is this your company? Are you asking me to help you advertise?"

Zhou Chen asked: "Do you think the content I have above is attractive to business people who want to start a business and find projects but are short of money?"
