The world of film and television begins from childhood

Chapter 333: A tricky mission, a conversation with Gu Jia

Gu Jia's appearance really exceeded Zhou Chen's expectations. He originally thought that it would take some time before he could meet Gu Jia. Who would have thought that Gu Jia and her family had moved to Grand Hyatt Mansion today, and they met him by such a coincidence.

"Meet the main plot characters and trigger the mission."

“Task 3: Becoming a father: Becoming a father to a son named Xu Ziyan. Let Xu Ziyan call you dad in public and become Xu Ziyan’s nominal father.”

"???"

The system's task arrived on time, but Zhou Chen was confused by the task and its content.

Congratulations on being a father, congratulations to you, are you sure this is not a mockery?

His eyes unconsciously swept over Xu Ziyan, who had fair skin and cute looks.

He looks good, but the problem is, if he wants to complete the task of becoming a father and make Xu Ziyan call him dad in public, it means that Gu Jia and Xu Huanshan must divorce, and then he can seduce Gu Jia.

It turns out that the key point of this mission still lies in the heroine Gu Jia, which is similar to the nature of the task of taking down Wang Manni.

The difference is that Gu Jia and Wang Manni are not the same kind of people. It is definitely countless times more difficult to win over Gu Jia, get her approval, and let her son call him dad than to win over Wang Manni.

Although raising a son for someone else is not a good thing, the child's mother is Gu Jia, and how many men can resist such temptation?

The pain from the previous relationship and memories has not yet fully recovered, so Zhou Chen is not prepared to continue to invest deep affection in this world. It is quite nice to just interact with the heroine of the plot.

It not only gives you something to do, but you can also release your emotions through them. Why not do it?

Zhou Chen is not against Aquaman. He is not the one who takes advantage of him. It is a matter of mutual consent, so who can say anything?

These thoughts flashed through Zhou Chen's mind, and then his face was filled with smiles.

"Mr. Xu, Ms. Gu, hello. My name is Zhou Chen. Your son is very cute. Since we will live in the same building in the future, we should get closer to each other. This is my business card."

Although he already had ideas about Gu Jia, Zhou Chen remained calm. He greeted her politely, took out his business card and handed it to Gu Jia.

Gu Jia naturally would not refuse. She took the business card but did not look at it immediately out of politeness.

"Thank you for the compliment. Zi Yan is also very naughty."

"Boys are naughty at this age. Lively children are always more likable."

As he spoke, Zhou Chen reached out and touched Xu Ziyan's head with a fatherly expression.

"Mr. Xu, Ms. Gu, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. If there's a chance in the future, let's get together again."

"Okay, then you go ahead and do your work, Mr. Zhou."

After watching Zhou Chen walk out of the door, Gu Jia picked up the business card and began to look at it.

"Chairman of Huaxing Group, Zhou Chen."

"Sister Jia, Huaxing Group is a large pharmaceutical company in Shanghai, with assets exceeding 10 billion. Mr. Zhou is the head of Huaxing Group, worth at least several billion. His business card is worth a fortune."

Xiao Zhang, the male staff member next to her, explained to Gu Jia.

"Assets exceeding 10 billion? Worth several billion?"

Gu Jia and Xu Huanshan were both shocked. They never thought that this man, who looked about the same age as them, was so rich.

Another staff member, Xiao Song, followed up and said, "This is only Mr. Zhou's apparent assets. Rumor has it that Mr. Zhou comes from a wealthy family. We don't know much about the details, but among all the owners of Grand Hyatt, the only one who is qualified to compete with Mr. Zhou in assets is probably the husband's family of Mrs. Wang on the 21st floor."

Gu Jia keenly grasped two key points. One was that Zhou Chen was very rich. Judging from the demeanor he just displayed, he might really be from a large family.

Another point is that Zhou Chen is already so rich, but there is someone in Junyue Mansion who can compete with him. The family background of this Mrs. Wang is probably not simple.

"This Mr. Zhou seems to like children very much?" Gu Jia asked tentatively.

Xiao Zhang replied: "We are not sure about this, because Mr. Zhou rarely lives here, and we have not met him many times. The only thing we know about him is rumors within the company."

"I see."

Gu Jia nodded and said, "Xiao Zhang, Xiao Song, thank you. Here are the snacks I prepared for you."

Xiao Zhang and Xiao Song quickly thanked her, "Thank you, Sister Jia. The flowers prepared for your housewarming celebration have been delivered."

Gu Jia smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble. We will go up first."

"Okay, then take your time."

Xu Huanshan held Xu Ziyan and walked into the elevator with Gu Jia. Seeing his wife Gu Jia still staring at the business card in her hand, he suddenly felt a little jealous.

"Wife, it's just a business card. You've looked at it over and over again, and you're still not satisfied."

As soon as Gu Jia saw Xu Huanshan's expression, she knew what he was thinking. Xu Huanshan couldn't hide his expression at all, and all his thoughts were revealed.

"I was just thinking that Zhou Chen is really rich. Not only is his wealth amazing, but even this business card is worth a lot of money."

"It's just a business card, how much value can it have?" Xu Huanshan looked incredulous.

Gu Jia didn't say anything, but handed the business card to Xu Huanshan, who took it in confusion.

"what?"

As soon as Xu Huanshan took the business card, he was surprised, because in his hand, he actually felt the heavy weight of the business card, so he took a closer look.

"What is this made of? Is it real gold? And this shiny thing, don't tell me it's a diamond?"

Gu Jia asked: "Do you think a person who controls a multi-billion-dollar group would use fake goods?"

Xu Huanshan laughed dryly. The couple had worked hard for so many years, but all their assets added up to only tens of millions, and most of them were real estate.

Not to mention over 10 billion, even 1 billion or 500 million are goals that are out of reach for them.

"It's just a business card, is it necessary to make it so precious? I really have too much money to spend."

Although he was amazed at the value and uniqueness of this business card, Xu Huanshan was very disdainful.

Perhaps it was because of the attraction between the same sex, but when he saw Zhou Chen, who was more handsome, richer, and more elegant than him, he always felt a little uncomfortable, especially in front of his wife.

Gu Jia said: "For us, this is just a business card, but for those wealthy people from powerful families, it may be a matter of face."

"Face cannot be eaten as food."

Xu Huanshan is essentially a fireworks designer, with a bit of an artistic style, and he doesn't look down on this kind of behavior.

Gu Jia did not argue with her husband. She felt that her husband was just too childish. Her goal was very big, so she would rather take on a huge loan and move to Grand Hyatt.

Today was her first day moving in, and she met a person like Zhou Chen. She felt that her decision to change houses was worth it. Living with these rich people allowed her to learn a lot.

"Huaxing Group, Zhou family, I wonder if they can bring business to our family?"

Their family only has one fireworks company, but its development is now greatly restricted. She always feels that fireworks are too risky. If her husband didn't really like this industry, she wouldn't want to continue doing it.

However, considering that Huaxing Group is just a company engaged in medicinal materials business, it is probably difficult to help their business.

Zhou Chen sat in the car, thinking about his recent encounter with Gu Jia. He hadn't dealt with Wang Manni yet, but he met Gu Jia so soon. Moreover, it was a task of becoming a father, so he had to win Gu Jia over.

He is no longer a novice and has no aversion to the idea of ​​adopting a girl, nor will he be morally condemned.

It’s just that there are some problems with Gu Jia. After all, they are still a loving family. If you want to win Gu Jia, you must first destroy their family.

He really has no experience in this kind of thing and needs to plan it carefully.

The first and most important person is Lin Youyou.

Zhou Chen didn’t know whether other women had the ability to make Xu Huanshan cheat, but as long as she met Lin Youyou, she would definitely be able to make Xu Huanshan cheat, so Xu Huanshan must go to Yanjing to meet Lin Youyou.

"Boss, we're here."

Cao Chengrui’s driving skills are quite good. Before Zhou Chen even felt anything, he had already arrived at the company.

The company's affairs were still quite busy, and Zhou Chen spent the whole morning dealing with documents. However, because of his many business experiences, he was much faster, and he finished processing a large pile of documents very quickly.

The company is very busy today because it is selecting a secretary for the chairman. All female employees who are confident in their abilities and appearance have signed up.

After all, apart from those senior executives, the secretary of the company chairman is an irresistible temptation for female employees.

Although serving the emperor is like serving a tiger, the risks are great, but the rewards are also great.

It was not until the afternoon that Lao Qian from the Human Resources Department handed the final list to Zhou Chen. A total of four people were selected.

These four people can be said to have been carefully selected. Although Zhou Chen did not put forward any requirements, the people in the Human Resources Department were very discerning. None of the people they chose was over 30 years old, and they were all very beautiful.

Zhou Chen carefully compared the qualifications of the four people and first ruled out a woman who was already engaged. Although he had no intention of having anything happen with his secretary, he still didn't want to use a woman who was about to get married. It would be troublesome.

"That's it."

Zhou Chen handed one of the files to Lao Qian.

Lao Qian took one over. This female employee was not the prettiest among the four, but her academic qualifications and performance were the best.

"Okay, I understand. I'll arrange for her to take up her post tomorrow."

"Well, let Secretary Wu help her get familiar with the process first. Once she is familiar with it, Secretary Wu can be transferred away."

"clear."

…………

Seeing that it was already afternoon and a day was almost left to complete the task of defeating Wang Manni, Zhou Chen picked up his phone and called Wang Manni.

For Wang Manni, today's business is pretty good, because there happened to be a new product on the market today, and many old customers came to buy it, so she has been busy since the morning and has not stopped until now.

Wang Manni was explaining something to a customer when her cell phone suddenly rang. She was about to hang up, but when she saw the caller ID, her face suddenly changed.

"Sister Wang, I'm sorry, I have an urgent call to answer. I'll let my colleague introduce you first."

After getting consent, she called a colleague who was very close to her and asked her for help.

As for herself, she walked to the corner and answered the phone.

"Mr. Zhou."

"You're just now answering the phone. Are you busy in the store, or do you just not want to answer my call?"

Wang Manni quickly smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, you are joking. You are a big customer of our store. How dare I not answer your call? I was really busy just now."

Zhou Chen did not ask any more questions, but directly said: "I heard from your deputy store manager that there are new products on the shelves today. Please help me pick a few and send them to me later. My nanny happened to be on leave today, so please help me make dinner."

"Ah? You still have to make dinner?"

Wang Manni showed bitterness on her face, and she couldn't help but say it out loud on the phone. By the time she reacted, it was too late to take it back.

"What? You don't want to cook for me because of what I said yesterday?"

"No, no, it's because my cooking is definitely not as delicious as your nanny's. I think it's better to forget it."

"I think you did a great job. If you think the ingredients at home are not good, you can buy them yourself. I'll transfer the money to you through Weixin. If you really don't want to come, then tell your deputy store manager and ask her to arrange for someone to deliver clothes to me and cook for me. That's it. I have something else to do. I'll hang up first."

Zhou Chen didn't give Wang Manni any room to refuse. He quickly hung up the phone, then opened Wang Manni's WeChat and directly transferred 20,000 yuan to her.

Wang Manni watched the money transfer on her mobile phone, her face seemed to be neither smiling nor crying. Zhou Chen's dominance made her really not know how to respond.

She didn't want Zhou Chen to look down on her and make her a nanny who could be summoned at will, but she couldn't possibly give up Zhou Chen, such a big client.

Apart from anything else, the 10 million yuan deposited in the store is a fatal temptation to her.

So she had no choice but to agree to go to Zhou Chen's house to deliver the goods and cook.

So she found the deputy store manager, told him Zhou Chen's request, and asked him to agree to her leave.

"That's definitely no problem. Mr. Zhou is our biggest customer now. You can pick out the best of the new products for him to choose from. As for you going to cook, it doesn't count as taking leave."

"Thank you, deputy store."

The deputy store manager said seriously, "Manni, I envy you very much. You have such a big customer to help you. You must seize the opportunity. Cooking for him is your best opportunity to show off. How does the saying go? If you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach."

Wang Manni smiled bitterly and said, "Deputy Store Manager, do you think a big shot like him has tasted all kinds of delicacies? With my mediocre skills, he wouldn't even take me seriously. I think the reason he treated me like this was to make fun of me on purpose."

The deputy store manager said nonchalantly, "So what? Go out and ask other people if they are willing to do it. Not to mention cooking, even if it's for other things, they will definitely not hesitate. You are just taking advantage of the situation."

"It's not that exaggerated, deputy shop."

"Haha, we are already at our age, and the time for dreaming is over. How many people have come and gone here, and who was not defeated by reality in the end?"

"Manni, listen to my advice. Don't think about those unrealistic things. The most important thing is to seize the immediate benefits."

…………

The deputy store manager had always been optimistic about Wang Manni, and now that Wang Manni had brought in a super big customer like Zhou Chen, her attitude towards Wang Manni would naturally be better, so she said so much with all her heart.

Wang Manni had a heavy expression. She knew all this, but after all these years she finally met a man who met her standards in every aspect, or even exceeded them. How could she bear to let him go?

But although Zhou Chen didn't say it explicitly, his meaning was very clear. He had a good impression of her and wanted her, but it was impossible to have her if he wanted something unrealistic.

Zhou Chen returned to Grand Hyatt at five o'clock. He did not go to the Michelin store because he was sure that Wang Manni would come.

But just as he arrived at Junyue Mansion, he saw Gu Jia walking towards him.
