The world of film and television begins from childhood

When Qiaogu heard this, her eyes lit up immediately: "Brother, you brought me another gift?"

Three years ago, when Zhou Chen came back from the capital, he brought her a lot of things, all of which were fashionable and could not be bought in a small place like Yiwu.

She has only worn those new clothes and bags a few times, but every time she puts them on, she becomes the focus of the whole village. Even when she goes to the town or county seat, she is also the focus.

Chen Jianghe obediently went over and took the bag. Zhou Chen opened the bag and started taking things out.

"Come here, Qiaogu, this is a watch and a scarf for you... Jianghe, this is yours, also a watch, and this suit is specially made for you. You can wear it when you go out to discuss business in the future."

When Chen Jianghe heard that there were also his own, he immediately refused, "Second brother, why did you buy these things for me? I don't need them, especially this suit. It looks good on you, but it would look weird on me. I don't want it."

Zhou Chen stuffed it into his hand and said, "Just take it. You may not need it now, but you will need it sooner or later. And this watch can be used by anyone. Just wear it if I give it to you. If you don't, you will look down on me, your brother."

Qiaogu took it with a smile and looked at the watch curiously. Even though it was 82, watches were still an expensive luxury to her. She had never thought about it before.

"Brother, this watch is a women's watch."

"I bought it for you. If I don't buy women's, will I buy men's?"

"This watch is so beautiful, brother. It must be worth a lot of money."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "I bought it in Hong Kong. This is my gift to you. You don't care how much it costs. If you like it, keep it. If it breaks, I'll buy you a new one."

He didn't tell the price of the watch because he was afraid that if he told Qiaogu, she would be scared and would put the watch up for show and not dare to take it out.

Chen Jianghe has traveled a lot for many years and has quite a good eye. He can tell that this watch is not simple and the price will definitely not be cheap.

But when he saw Zhou Chen shaking his head at him, he didn't know how to say it.

Then, Zhou Chen took out the things he had brought for Chen Jinshui and his wife and asked Qiaogu to deliver them.

After a while, Chen Erli came over to express her gratitude, and then grabbed Zhou Chen's hands, and kept praising Zhou Chen for his promising future and ability.

In the blink of an eye, it was night. After Chen Jinshui came back from work, Chen Erli and Qiaogu started cooking, and the three grown men sat at the dinner table and talked.

Mainly, Zhou Chen was talking while Chen Jinshui and Chen Jianghe were listening. They were all talking about things in Hong Kong and they both listened with great interest.

Chen Jianghe has traveled all over the country in the past few years and is quite knowledgeable.

But Chen Jinshui, although he is not young, he has not been to many places. At most, he has just been to the surrounding areas.

Not to mention that he hasn't been out of Yiwu for many years, so how could he possibly know about a place as far away as Hong Kong.

When they heard Zhou Chen say that Hong Kong was so developed, they were all shocked. People there could easily earn several thousand yuan a month, but in their place, such a big county, there were very few people who earned over a thousand yuan a year.

For villagers like them in Chenjia Village, a family can only earn a few hundred yuan a year, and a few thousand yuan a month, which they really can't imagine.

When they heard Zhou Chen say that Hong Kong has many tall buildings and a developed economy, they were all shocked. They didn't expect that there was such a big gap between their country and Hong Kong.

Chen Jianghe asked curiously: "Second brother, since Hong Kong is so developed, have you ever thought about staying in Hong Kong to develop? With your ability, it must be very easy for you to stay."

Zhou Chen said: "Stay in Hong Kong? What's the point of staying there? You have no relatives there. The current situation in China is not as good as Hong Kong, but it will also have good development in the future."

If he stayed in Hong Kong, he could rise quickly and even be on the world's richest list, but after living in many worlds, he has become indifferent to these things.

Business needs to develop. After all, if you want to live well, you can’t be short of money.

But life also needs to be enjoyed, and he doesn't want to spend all his time on business battles, which is too tiring.

Chen Jinshui frowned secretly: "Xiaochen, you came back to Yiwu this time, don't you want to stay?"

"Uncle, don't you support this idea?" Zhou Chen asked puzzledly.

Chen Jinshui said in a deep voice: "You went to a famous university in the capital, and you are the top student in Yiwu. If you stay in Yiwu, it will be a waste of your talent and ability. I support you to develop in the capital, or even go to Hong Kong or go abroad. I support you."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Uncle, other parents would like their children to stay with them, but you are trying to drive me away?"

"This is not called driving you away. Yiwu is a small place and is not suitable for you to develop. I am doing this for your own good. A good man has ambitions to go far and wide."

"Uncle, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I have already made the decision to invest in Yiwu. I told Xie Shuji about this when I had lunch with him at noon today."

"Did you have lunch with Xie Shuji?" Chen Jinshui looked surprised.

"Yes, didn't I tell you this in the afternoon?"

"Brother, I think we really didn't say it."

Seeing that Zhou Chen had said so much, Chen Jinshui knew that he really couldn't persuade Zhou Chen. This nephew was too opinionated, and he had experienced this in the past few years.

If it was Chen Jianghe, he could still persuade him a little, but after thinking about it, he decided not to persuade him anymore.

"You said you wanted to invest in Yiwu. What would you invest in? Do you have money?"

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "I already have a solution for this, but we haven't started discussing it yet. Once we've discussed it, I'll tell you in detail."

"Well, since you've made up your mind, I won't try to persuade you anymore. You're a college student anyway, so even if you don't succeed this time, you'll still have something to do in the future."

College students nowadays are very popular, let alone those who are from Peking University like Zhou Chen. It is even more amazing. They can become a cadre anywhere.

The three of them clinked their glasses and drank, and they were the only ones talking at the table. Chen Erli and Qiaogu just pricked up their ears and listened, rarely speaking.

After three rounds of drinks, Chen Jinshui talked about another thing.

"Xiaochen, I have something to ask you."

"Uncle, please ask."

"Do you know this woman named Luo Yuzhu?"

"I know her. What's the matter? Uncle, did she have a conflict with you?"

Zhou Chen remembered that in the TV drama, Luo Yuzhu and Chen Jinshui didn't get along with each other, but that was all because of Chen Jianghe. Now Luo Yuzhu and Chen Jianghe didn't know each other, could it be that they still had a conflict?

Chen Jinshui showed dissatisfaction: "I don't know how you know this woman, but I tell you, cut off contact with this woman from now on."

Zhou Chen knew something was wrong as soon as he heard it. There must have been a conflict, but fortunately, he had already been mentally prepared for this matter.

"Uncle, if she offended you, I'll apologize to you on her behalf. She's just a little girl, there's no need for you to bother with her."

"Hmm, little girl?"

Chen Jinshui sneered, "She is not an ordinary woman. She is the number one speculator in our town in the past two years. She does everything illegal. She is not a good person. This kind of woman is not a good person. You listen to me. No matter what happened between you two in the past, don't have any contact with each other in the future. Do you hear me?"

Zhou Chen's expression was serious, and he said very seriously: "Uncle, I really can't do this. Uncle, Luo Yuzhu and I met three years ago. We have a good impression of each other. She has waited for me for three years. I can't just cut off contact with her like this. If I do so, it's too unmanly."

Chen Jinshui angrily slapped the table and shouted, "What do you mean by man or not man? How old are you? Do you know what a man is? I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. I am more experienced than you in this matter. Luo Yuzhu is a woman with too many thoughts and too mixed up. She is not a good match for you."

"Uncle, that's not what I meant. What we advocate now is free love. Although Luo Yuzhu and I haven't been together for a long time, we have a good impression of each other. Between men and women, feelings are the foundation, and we already have this foundation."

Zhou Chen patiently explained to Chen Jinshui, trying to change Chen Jinshui's mind.

But Chen Jinshui sneered.

"I don't know what the basis is. I just know that with your conditions, you can find any woman you want. What kind of person is Luo Yuzhu? She is a woman that even her own father doesn't want. She has cheated and deceived people. What has she not done? If you stay with her, you are lowering your status."

Zhou Chen frowned slightly and said softly, "It's not her fault that her biological father doesn't want her. The fault is her biological father, uncle. Although Yuzhu is not well educated and grew up in the market, her personality is not perfect, but I like her and I have chosen her. I will not change this."

"It's just nonsense."

Chen Jinshui slammed the table and shouted angrily: "I am your uncle. I can ignore other things, but I must take care of this matter. You are a phoenix bird that can spread its wings and fly high. Luo Yuzhu is just a mouse that can only burrow into the ground. If you stay with her, you will only be dragged down by her. She will prevent you from flying. Do you understand?"

Zhou Chen nodded and said, "Uncle, I understand what you mean and your concerns. You are doing this for my own good, I understand that, but I will tell you the truth, if I have to choose between career and love, I will choose love now."

If he had not obtained the system and faced such a choice, he would definitely choose career. Now that he has a career, would he still worry about not having love?

However, having experienced more than a dozen film and television worlds, he would choose love more often, because career is always available to him, but a woman who can be extremely loyal to him is rare.

With knowledge, experience, and ability, you can be more prepared when faced with choices.

"Love, what the hell? I think you've lost your mind. What's the point of loving someone?"

Chen Jinshui was so angry at Zhou Chen that he cursed him on the spot. Their generation was more pragmatic, and love was really too much of a luxury. Living was so difficult, who would care about love?

He believes that love exists, but compared to a man's career and future, love is really nothing.

"Dad, why are you so fierce? Can't you just talk to my brother nicely?" Qiaogu stood up and advised anxiously.

The furious Chen Jinshui ignored her and directly scolded her: "It has nothing to do with you, sit down and don't talk."

Qiaogu looked aggrieved, and Chen Erli couldn't help it: "Her father, Qiaogu is doing this for your own good, why are you angry?"

"Okay, you two, stop making trouble." Chen Jinshui was very impatient.

Chen Jianghe also hurriedly spoke to persuade them. When he spoke, Chen Jinshui did not scold him, but he was not satisfied either, because he felt that he was not wrong at all. It was Zhou Chen who had the problem. Why did he have to find that woman Luo Yuzhu when there were so many people to look for? Isn't this destroying his own future?

Although Chen Jinshui was furious, Zhou Chen kept smiling. No matter what Chen Jinshui said, he was not angry, but he did not agree with Chen Jinshui either.

Chen Jinshui was so angry that he stopped drinking, turned around and went back to the room, which ended the dispute.

As soon as Chen Jinshui left, Chen Jianghe and the other two looked at Zhou Chen.

Qiaogu and Chen Erli had both seen Luo Yuzhu, but Chen Jianghe had only heard of her but had never seen her, so he was very curious about what kind of woman she was that could make his idolized second brother argue with Chen Jinshui for her.

"Second brother, the Luo Yuzhu my uncle mentioned, who is she?"

Zhou Chen said: "If I have time, I will introduce you to each other, but don't talk about it now, otherwise my uncle will come out and scold me again later."

Chen Erli said, "Xiaochen, don't blame your uncle. He is doing this for your own good and thinking about your future, so he said it so harshly."

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Aunt, don't worry. I really don't blame my uncle. Of course I know he did it for my own good. I disappointed him. But when it comes to choosing a partner, I still want to follow my own ideas. No matter what happens in the future, at least I won't regret it."

Chen Erli sighed and said nothing more. She was a woman and more emotional than Chen Jinshui. To be honest, when she was with Chen Jinshui at the beginning, there was no so-called love at all. It was only after they had been together for a long time that they could not live without each other. This was their love.

So she was quite touched by Zhou Chen's attitude towards love. She didn't know what attracted Luo Yuzhu to such an outstanding nephew.

After dinner, Chen Jianghe and Qiaogu did not return to their rooms, but rushed into Zhou Chen's room together.

Zhou Chen did not chase them away, but followed their request and told them about his experiences outside and some interesting things he saw.

The next morning, Zhou Chen got up early. He went out for a run as usual. When he came back after exercising, he saw Chen Jinshui getting dressed and getting ready to go out.

"uncle."

Chen Jinshui nodded, not looking angry. Instead, he said, "If you have nothing to do these two days, just rest at home. If you have something to do, let Ji Mao take you out for a walk and see how Yiwu has changed over the past few years."

"I see."

The two of them tacitly agreed not to mention what happened last night.

After breakfast, Zhou Chen did not ask Chen Jianghe to accompany him. Instead, he rode his bicycle away from Chenjia Village and came to the house that he had rented for Luo Yuzhu.

Luo Yuzhu went out early today because the recent opening of the roadside department store allowed people like them who run small commodity department stores to set up stalls on the roadside to sell things, so she always goes out early to do business recently.

Zhou Chen came to the door of the house he rented three years ago. Looking at the locked door, he knew that Luo Yuzhu was not at home.

Through the crack in the door, I could barely see what was inside. The yard was quite clean and there were trees planted inside.

After looking around, Zhou Chen didn't plan to go in, so he rode away. He planned to go to the newly opened street market to take a look. He knew that unless Luo Yuzhu went to purchase goods, she would most likely be selling things there.

When Qiu Yingjie talked to him on the phone before, he told him that Luo Yuzhu was already known as the "Socks King" in Yiwu. This was no different from the TV series, as she started her business by selling socks.

Zhou Chen had walked around the streets of Yiwu many times before, so even after three years, he was still quite familiar with Yiwu. Chen Jianghe told him the location, so he quickly found the first street department store in Yiwu.

It's no wonder that when he arrived at the place, he found that this street was really bustling, with people coming and going, making it very crowded, and all kinds of chaotic hawking sounds were heard one after another.

It was indeed lively, but the biggest feeling Zhou Chen had was chaos.

But he could understand it. After all, this was only the first attempt, and the stalls were set up on both sides of the road with many people coming and going. It would be strange if it wasn't chaotic.

Some stalls are doing very good business, while others have very few customers.

The items sold at each stall are also very messy, and many of the stalls have duplicate products.

Zhou Chen was not in a hurry to find someone. Instead, he pushed his bicycle and started walking around from the beginning, picking up things from time to time to look at them.

Zhou Chen casually dealt with the vendors at the stalls while looking at the things seriously. He had to say that most of the people at this time were still very sincere and simple.

The things sold at the stalls are not expensive at all, and many of the things don’t look very good, but after trying them, they turn out to be quite good.

From Zhou Chen's perspective, these products are naturally mediocre and very backward.

But in this era, most of the goods in department stores here are necessities of life, and there are basically no luxury goods.

It looks very chaotic here, but Zhou Chen knows that this is just the beginning. In the future, Yiwu will become the world's largest small commodity wholesale market starting from here.

The child is not feeling well today, he is too tired from work, and his whole body hurts, so there is only one chapter today, please forgive me.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 781 Reunion after three years

In his real world, Zhou Chen has never been to Yiwu. Even after traveling to the world of film and television, he has only been to Yiwu once.

However, Yiwu had already developed very well when he went there, but today Yiwu is still just a small county town.

The first small street department store just opened near Chenjia Town not long ago. It is different from the real world, but after all, it is a TV series, so it must be adapted.
