Putting away the phone, Xiao Zheng glanced sideways at Lin Huayin, who was strolling leisurely, and said with a smile, "Xiao Zhu has grown up. She knows to stand up for my brother-in-law. "
Lin Huayin nodded slightly and said, "She is very smart and capable. He is also very capable. "
To receive such a high evaluation from Elder Lin was something that even Xiao Zheng didn't get. Maybe Old Lin loved his sister as much as Xiao Zheng did, or he really believed that Xiao Zhu was very capable.
"Shall we go shopping?" Xiao Zheng asked with a smile.
"Yes." Lin Huayin nodded.
White Town wasn't as modern as Pearl City, and it wasn't as rich as Yan Jing. But the atmosphere of life on the street made people feel very comfortable. The two walked a few streets together. Encouraged by Xiao Zheng, they also went to a few shops. Although they didn't buy anything expensive, they didn't get nothing.
At noon, Xiao Zheng dragged Lin Huayin into a western restaurant. They ordered a steak and a red wine. Listening to the soothing music in the restaurant, they tasted the steak that cost more than one thousand.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Xiao Zheng leaned against the chair comfortably and looked at Lin Huayin across the table. "Old Lin, it's been half a day. When are you going to work? "
Xiao Zheng was a bit puzzled. Even if Old Lin changed his temper and accompanied him to eat and drink, and put his work on the back burner … But he wouldn't stop working, right?
They stayed in White Town for three days in total. It was the second day, but Old Lin didn't intend to go to work at all. It was puzzling.
But on second thought, Xiao Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
In the past, he often advised Old Lin not to work too hard. Relax when it was time to relax. Don't strain yourself too much. But now — Old Lin just relaxed for the second day, but Xiao Zheng couldn't sit still. It seemed that if Old Lin didn't work, the end of the world would come.
It was really strange.
Lin Huayin put down her glass and didn't answer Xiao Zheng's question. She just stretched her hand out to Xiao Zheng and said lightly, "Phone."
Xiao Zheng was confused, but he still passed the phone to Elder Lin.
Lin Huayin took the phone and dialed a number.
Beep beep.
After a few rings, the call was connected.
"Hello, Mr. Lin." A respectful voice came from the other side of the phone.
"Help me book a flight for tomorrow afternoon," Lin Huayin said concisely.
"Yes, Boss Lin."
After hanging up, Lin Huayin returned the phone to Xiao Zheng.
"Tomorrow afternoon?" Xiao Zheng was surprised. "What about your job?"
Lin Huayin raised her eyes slightly and stared at Xiao Zheng carefully. "My job this time is to accompany you to eat, drink, and have fun."
After a pause, Lin Huayin continued, "I'll be returning to Beijing tomorrow. We still have twenty-four hours. "
Xiao Zheng was startled. Then, he said with a touched expression, "You came to accompany me this time?"
Lin Huayin nodded.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "I was worried that your body wouldn't be able to take it, and it would hinder your work. So, I didn't bring you to places that would exhaust your energy. "
"Where to?" Lin Huayin asked.
"How about Bai Yun Mountain?" Xiao Zheng teased. "It's a bit inappropriate if we don't go to Bai Yun Mountain after coming to White Town."
"You decide." Lin Huayin nodded.
Since it was a long way to go, Xiao Zheng called Manager Wang directly. On one hand, he wanted to ask about the current situation. On the other hand, he wanted to ask him to send a car over.
"The Internet has exploded." Manager Wang explained the situation. "The two star lineups have also launched an unprecedented confrontation. Although there are more big names in White Town. But Lu Qier, the international superstar, supports our Xin Ao. Even Huang Ruyu, the Goddess of White Town, who has been rising rapidly in the past two years, has expressed her support for Xin Ao Cinemas. As far as I know, she was promoted by Qin Dong. "
Huang Ruyu of White Town had changed sides. It added another layer of mystery to the already explosive online war of words.
From Manager Wang's tone, it seemed that some White Town stars were gradually standing on Xin Ao's side. But only Xiao Zheng knew that Huang Ruyu did this either to repay a debt of gratitude, or because Lu Qier instigated it. Otherwise, even if the White Town stars didn't want to participate in the war of words, they wouldn't openly support Xin Ao.
Xiao Zheng nodded and asked, "What's the box office of 'Summer Love Song' today?"
Although it was only noon, the trend of the box office could be seen. Especially for Manager Wang, who was a professional in the circle.
"As of 2 o 'clock, the box office today has reached 20 million. But it includes pre-sales, "Manager Wang said with a pessimistic tone. "According to this trend, there should be another wave of box office in the evening. It is estimated that it will break 40 million. "
"Then the total box office will reach 110 million." Xiao Zheng took a sip of red wine.
"More or less," Manager Wang said awkwardly. "Our hype seems to have helped them."
"Look at the bigger picture. We are helping ourselves, "Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "The attention of Xin Ao Cinema Chain has increased, right?"
At the mention of this, Manager Wang couldn't help but laugh. "Yes. Since last night, the attention of Xin Ao Cinema Chain has increased exponentially. Not only our White Town Cinema, but the box office revenue all over the country has increased significantly. Because of this, the head of the cinema chain specially called me to thank me. "
Manager Wang had been promoted. And he was the core leader of the Public Relations Department. Logically speaking, he was at the same level as the head of the cinema chain. They were all on duty at the headquarters. With this battle, Manager Wang could be said to have made a name for himself in the entertainment department and received strong support from Xin Ao Cinema Chain. And for Manager Wang, the Xin Ao Cinema Chain could be considered half a family. The other party definitely wanted to build a good relationship with Manager Wang before he was officially promoted to the Deputy Director of the Public Relations Department. Especially — Manager Wang was still labeled as Mr. Xiao's follower.
The call meant to put in a good word for him, and also to test the waters and rope him in.
As Xin Ao grew bigger and bigger, the internal human relations would certainly become more and more complicated. The so-called cliques were also unavoidable. But Lin Huayin didn't show any obvious reaction to this.
She once told Xiao Zheng that struggle was the driving force of progress. There would be struggle when there were people. But as long as the so-called struggle didn't affect the stability of the overall environment, it could be allowed, but it couldn't be controlled.
The establishment of the entertainment department, on the one hand, was the need for the development of Xin Ao, on the other hand, was to suppress the momentum of the overseas department. It was difficult to manage a monopoly, and the number one would be easily overthrown. Even if Xiao Zheng couldn't compete with Old Lin. Old Lin didn't care about Xiao Zheng's monopoly. But for Old Lin, the high-level didn't have any ideas, but it didn't mean that the grassroots didn't. In history, there was an allusion of wearing a yellow robe. Old Lin could take the initiative to step down and hand over the power to Xiao Zheng. But if the core planner of Xiao Zheng's team seized power, it wouldn't be healthy. It would also affect stability and unity.
To put it simply, small conflicts were allowed. But they couldn't allow a power grab like Geng Sang. That would drag Xin Ao down. Unfavorable development.
Even if there came a day when Xiao Zheng successfully took control of New Austria, he would still have to promote a trusted aide to keep the Blue Heart team in check. Otherwise, it would be easy to lose control.
