The world of film and television begins from childhood

"Hate it! Could you please stop saying that? It's so embarrassing." Yang Tao hid his head under the quilt, not daring to show it out.

Zhou Chen held Yang Tao's head out and said softly, "Rest for a while and get up. I will take you to a place later."

"Where to go?"

Yang Tao was indeed attracted and asked Zhou Chen with curiosity.

Zhou Chen touched Yang Tao's nose with his own and said, "I won't tell you yet. You'll know when you get there."

Yang Tao was a little dissatisfied: "You are so mysterious. I don't know what you want to do. I won't get up. I will just dawdle."

"I'll give you five minutes. If you don't get up, I'll have to use my ultimate move. You should know what my ultimate move is, hehehe."

"Zhou Chen, you are the most annoying. You always bully me..."

"Okay, I promise not to bully you anymore. Come here, we'll get up after a break."

It was said to be five minutes, but in the end it took half an hour before getting up. The two of them had a quick bite in the morning, and then Zhou Chen took Yang Tao out.

Sitting in the car, Yang Tao asked again: "Zhou Chen, where are you taking me today?"

"I won't tell you now, but you will be happy after it's over."

"You didn't even tell me where you were going, so how do you know I'll be happy? What if I get angry?"

Zhou Chen smiled confidently and said, "If you are angry, I will let you be on top."

"roll."

Faced with Zhou Chen's teasing, Yang Tao really had no way to deal with it.

The longer she spent with Zhou Chen, the more she realized that there was a big difference between how Zhou Chen behaved in front of others and behind others.

He was very polite in front of others and spoke clearly and logically, but behind the scenes, when it was just the two of them together, he became too lively, especially those jokes, which really caught her off guard.

At the beginning, she had to think for a while before she could understand what it meant, but now after training, she has understood most of the meanings. She also changed from being shy and embarrassed in the beginning to being as strong as a rock now.

Zhou Chen drove the car and the two came to a commercial street. After parking the car, he took Yang Tao straight to the destination.

"arrive."

Zhou Chen took Yang Tao to stop at a store. When Yang Tao saw the store, he was stunned.

Because in front of me was actually a ring store.

"Zhou, Zhou Chen, you brought me here, not because..."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Yes, I am here to bring you here to buy a ring. I think those things on TV, where the ring is placed in a cake, inserted in a flower, or placed somewhere for you to find, are a bit cliché, so I thought of bringing you here to choose a ring in person, and tailor-make it for you, a ring that belongs only to you."

"I had already made up my mind before I came here. I chose D.R. because this store has a romantic rule for its rings: a man can only customize one ring in his lifetime with his ID card. I want to give you my only chance, Taozi, are you willing to accept it?"

Yang Tao was completely stunned. As a woman who longed for marriage, she certainly knew this ring brand. However, she never expected that Zhou Chen would choose to bring her here on this ordinary day and want to tailor-make the only ring for her.

She was so moved, so moved that words could not describe it, that she couldn't help but shed tears.

Zhou Chen gently wiped her tears, "Don't cry, there are so many people here, it will be ugly if your makeup is smudged by crying."

"Well, I'm not crying. I didn't mean to cry. It just flowed out of my control."

Yang Tao choked up as she spoke, and the more she spoke, the more tears she shed. These were tears of emotion, tears of joy and excitement, and even more so, tears of happiness.

"Well, Taozi, I'm not as romantic as others. I don't have 999 roses, nor a grand proposal ceremony. Are you willing to be the hostess of the only ring?"

Yang Tao nodded vigorously and choked up, "I do. I don't want flowers or a grand ceremony. I just want to be with you, like an ordinary couple, and live our own stable life. I am willing to be the hostess of your ring."

"What are you waiting for? Let's go in."

Zhou Chen and Yang Tao stayed inside for nearly an hour. After coming out, both of them were smiling, especially Yang Tao, who jumped out of the store.

Back in the car, Yang Tao's face was filled with a happy smile.

"Zhou Chen, you are too rich. You spent more than 300,000 yuan to buy a ring. After I got the ring, I didn't dare to take it out casually, for fear of being spotted."

When they just decided on the ring, Zhou Chen seemed very generous and asked for the best one directly. Yang Tao wanted to buy a cheap one based on the idea of ​​thriftiness, but Zhou Chen was very tough and resolute. He did not give her any chance and decided on that one directly.

Yang Tao was both happy and distressed. She was happy because Zhou Chen was willing to buy her the best ring, and she was distressed because she felt sorry for the money.

"This is just the beginning. Look at those wealthy ladies. What they wear and wear are worth hundreds of thousands or millions, or even tens of millions, but they haven't been targeted."

"You surprised me. You even wanted to buy me a ring. And you bought me one worth more than 10,000 yuan. It seems you have quite a bit of savings."

Just now, it was not only him who bought a ring from Yang Tao. Yang Tao also bought him one, but his was just a simple platinum ring.

Yang Tao: "Of course, since you bought it for me, I want to buy one for you too. But I'm not as rich as you, so I can only buy you a cheap one. When I make money in the future, I will definitely buy you a good one."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Then I'll wait."

"Of course."

Yang Tao was very happy, but also a little disappointed. She said, "But it takes forty days to get the ring. This is too slow."

Zhou Chen said: "We made it to order, so of course it's slow. Don't worry, just wait. Forty days is also very fast. Let's go for a walk first, and then find a place to have lunch."

Chapter 104 Bridal Shop Opening

May 3rd!

Amid the crackling sound of firecrackers, the Chenxing wedding photography studio officially opened.

The name of the bridal shop is very simple, still using the name of the previous world educational institution. Since Zhou Chen really doesn't have much talent in naming, he just uses the same name.

There were many flower baskets placed in front of the store, all of which were sent by friends. Because there was a large space in front of the store, Zhou Chen specially built a stage on the opening day and invited people to perform to attract customers.

There were not many customers at the beginning, but in the afternoon, more and more customers came. Some were attracted here while shopping, some knew that this place was going to open a while ago and came here specifically, and some were attracted here after seeing advertisements in magazines.

Previously, Hong Baida's friend Li Bing, who worked at a magazine, asked Zhou Chen for the right to use the photos. After Zhou Chen discussed it with Yang Tao, they thought this was a very good opportunity, so Zhou Chen talked to Li Bing.

They agreed to the use of the photos, but their bridal shop had to be advertised in the magazine. Li Bing finally agreed.

It is now 13. Although the new media era has arrived, it has not yet reached its peak. Magazines still have sales, especially the magazine where Li Bing works has good sales in Yanjing. Many people who see the advertisements in the magazine come here to watch.

We were busy from morning to evening, and many customers came, but at the end of the day, despite various discounts, we only completed six orders. One was for buying a wedding dress, one was for customizing a wedding dress, and the other four were for taking wedding photos because of the good discounts.

On the first day, they closed six deals, which seems like a lot, but in fact, compared to their publicity efforts and investment, the results are not very ideal.

However, Zhou Chen was not in a hurry, because this kind of retail business was different from the educational institution he ran in his previous world, and the foundation it possessed was also different. It was definitely impossible to make money right away, but it required a certain amount of time to accumulate slowly.

After the opening, Zhou Chen and Yang Tao went to work on time every day. Now, apart from Zhou Chen and Yang Tao, there is only one deputy store manager and nine other employees in the shop. The number is not large, but it is not small either.

Now everyone knows the relationship between Yang Tao and Zhou Chen. Although Yang Tao herself does not want to be the store manager yet and is just following the deputy store manager to learn, the employees in the Chenxing store are very discerning and have long regarded her as the store manager and the boss's wife.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed. During this time, Yang Tao was really busy with her studies. On the contrary, Zhou Chen was much more relaxed. He was the boss, and he didn't need to do many things himself. He just had to pay the money.

After more than ten days, the business of the store can only be described as average, and it is in a stage where the income is not enough to cover the expenses. As the boss, Zhou Chen is not in a hurry. After all, it is impossible to make money right away when doing business. If you make a lot of money right away, it is not called business, but robbing money.

The loss was within Zhou Chen's expectations. He was even prepared to suffer losses within a year. For him, the first priority was to cultivate Yang Tao first.

After the bridal shop opened, Xue Sumei, the future mother-in-law, came to visit several times. Once, she even brought her old sister to visit, which made Zhou Chen and Yang Tao laugh and cry.

That day, Xue Sumei took the initiative to call two old sisters, Liu Xiu and Lan Caiping, to get together.

"Su Mei, your future son-in-law's bridal shop is really good. And your future son-in-law is also very handsome, young and rich. Taozi is really lucky."

After the three of them sat down, Liu Xiu complimented Xue Sumei sincerely and kept praising Zhou Chen, which made Xue Sumei very happy.

Xue Sumei had no reason to be unhappy. In fact, among the three good sisters, she was the one who had done the worst over the years.

Although she always played the leading female role in the drama troupe, how much money could she make at that time? Later, she raised two children by herself. Compared with the happy family of Liu Xiu and Lan Caiping, she really suffered a lot.

She enjoyed glory in the first twenty or thirty years, but was never as good as Liu Xiu and Lan Caiping in the last ten or twenty years. Xue Sumei didn't say it on the surface, but she was actually quite aggrieved in her heart.

Recently, Zhou Chen, her future son-in-law, has been constantly bringing her honor and making her life very comfortable, especially the compliments from her old sisters, which really make her extremely comfortable.

"It's OK. Xiao Zhou is a good kid. Taozi has quit her job at the hotel and is working in the bridal shop. After a while, she will be promoted to store manager once she gets familiar with the shop."

Liu Xiu said: "It seems that Xiao Zhou is really good to Taozi. Sumei, it seems that it won't be long before you can attend Taozi's wedding. I will definitely give you a big red envelope when the time comes."

"Hahaha, of course. The red envelope must be big enough."

Xue Sumei laughed out loud. As long as Taozi got married, her biggest wish would be fulfilled. What's more, she was very satisfied with this son-in-law.

"Ping'er, why don't you say a word today? Our Taozi's wedding is coming soon, and your Weiwei's wedding is almost here too."

A happy remark stirred up a hornet's nest for Lan Caiping, who immediately got furious.

"Xue Sumei, if you don't target me for a day, do you feel uncomfortable?"

The reputation of "plastic sisters" is indeed well-deserved. They start quarreling with each other as soon as they disagree.

Xue Sumei was stunned when Lan Caiping yelled at her: "Ping'er, what are you talking about? How did I target you? Xiu'er, please judge for yourself. How did I target her?"

Liu Xiu was also puzzled. She asked Lan Caiping, "Caiping, did Sumei say something wrong?"

Xue Sumei quickly said, "No, I didn't say anything. I only said one sentence to her, and you heard it all. I didn't provoke her."

"Pretend, just pretend, Xue Sumei, ah Xue Sumei, I have known you for decades, don't I know you? You just can't stand seeing our family doing well, Weiwei got into trouble, you are happy now, right? If you are happy, just hide away and be happy. Why do you come to me, isn't that too much of a bully?"

Lan Caiping pointed at Xue Sumei with a stern tone. As she spoke, she became so angry that her eyes turned red and tears flowed.

"No, what happened to Weiwei? Caiping, I really don't know." Xue Sumei explained hurriedly.

But Lan Caiping didn't believe her at all and said sternly, "You don't know, how could you not know? Why wouldn't Taozi tell you? Xue Sumei, don't I know you? You just want to see me make a fool of myself, to make me angry, to laugh at me. Now you've got what you wanted, you've succeeded, you're happy, right?"

"Hey, Caiping, what are you talking about? What happened to Weiwei? Taozi didn't tell me, so I really don't know anything."

Xue Sumei looked confused. She really didn't know what had happened to Lan Weiwei. Taozi hadn't visited her recently, so how could she know what had happened to Lan Weiwei?

But Lan Caiping didn't believe her at all and looked at her coldly, which made her very uncomfortable. She had no choice but to ask Liu Xiu for help.

"Xiu'er, you helped persuade Caiping, what's going on?"

"Don't worry."

Liu Xiu comforted Xue Sumei, and then asked Lan Caiping questions. Facing Liu Xiu, Lan Caiping's attitude improved a lot, and under Liu Xiu's questioning, she slowly told the truth.

"What? How can there be such a scumbag?"

After listening to Lan Caiping's narration, Xue Sumei slammed the table and cursed angrily.

"Okay, Xue Sumei, stop pretending. I know you already knew it. If you want to laugh at me, just laugh."

Lan Caiping believed that Xue Sumei was acting, and her overreaction was not as good as hers.

Xue Sumei was anxious: "Ping'er, how could I laugh at you? I really heard you say it and then I knew about it. We have our own feuds, and I can never use the child's matter to target you. Weiwei met such a scumbag, I don't have time to be angry, how can I have the heart to think about these things."

"Hmph." Lan Caiping snorted coldly.

Liu Xiu quickly advised: "Cai Ping, Su Mei is not that kind of person, don't think too much. Wei Wei was wronged, but fortunately it's not too late. He has seen the true face of that scumbag and will not suffer more harm. This is a blessing in disguise."

Lan Caiping sighed sadly: "My poor daughter, how could she meet such a scumbag? I thought he was the CEO of a listed company and would be a good person, but I didn't expect that he would be so morally corrupt. I really feel sorry for my Weiwei."

Liu Xiu and Xue Sumei quickly persuaded Lan Caiping not to be too sad.

Chapter 105 Engraved Ring, Dispute

"Sure, Taozi, you bought the ring so quickly. This ring is really beautiful. How many carats is the diamond on it?"

Su Qing took the silver-white ring in her hand and looked at the sparkling diamond on the ring face with joy.

She also has a ring, but it is very different from Yang Tao's.

Women all like these shiny things, especially diamond rings. Married or not, women will all desire them.

Yang Tao said with a smile: "The whole diamond on it is two carats, and there are some broken diamonds around it. I told you not to buy such an expensive one, but Zhou Chen didn't listen to me at all and insisted on buying this for me. This ring is almost worth two years' salary of mine."

Su Qing smiled and said, "That's because Zhou Chen likes you and is willing to buy you a ring worth more than 300,000 yuan. If it were me, I would definitely not be willing to give it up."

"Yes, Xiao Zhou is a really good kid. He even knew to buy you a ring, and bought you such an expensive one."

Xue Sumei was also moved and happy for her daughter.

Su Qing said: "Aunt, you can rest assured now. Zhou Chen even bought Taozi such a nice ring, which means he really wants to marry Taozi."

Xue Sumei sighed, "Yes, I can rest assured now. After so many years, I can finally put my worries to rest. I am so happy."

She said she was happy, but there was not much smile on her face, because she thought that her daughter would probably get married soon, and the reluctance in her heart surged up.

Yang Tao noticed that something was wrong with her mother and quickly changed the subject.

"Sister, look, this is Zhou Chen's ring. I bought it for him."
