To the end!
Cao Da's family was too complicated. He had a first wife, a second wife, an older daughter, and a younger daughter. Qin Sheng's memory was blurred. He had thought that he had an older son and a younger son. It was not until then that he remembered that Cao Da only had one son, Cao Zhang. Apart from that morning, Qin Sheng and Cao Zhang had no contact with each other. He did not expect to meet him here today.
"Cao Zhang has a band at school. He occasionally comes over to perform on weekends, so we're quite familiar with each other. Those are his band members and friends," Yu Yixiao explained, stroking his beard.
Qin Sheng said casually, "We have a common voice. Music is the best way to communicate. I like music very much."
"Hahaha, if you are interested, you can try it on the stage. We have all kinds of musical instruments here. The equipment and lighting are the best in Hangzhou. It's just that the business is not so good." Yu Yixiao said self-mockingly. Anyway, he never cared about what others said.
Qin Sheng did not respond. Instead, he asked, "Will Cao Zhang's band perform tonight?"
"Yes, he comes here two or three times a month. Cao Zhang is the main singer. This kid has a good voice and a good image. He can be packaged as a singer, but I don't think Mr. Cao will agree. With such a big family business, he needs his son to take over. Don't you think so?" Yu Yixiao took a sip of wine. At this time, Cao Zhang and the others had already walked over to them. Yu Yixiao waved to them.
Qin Sheng also looked at Cao Zhang. The young man was indeed handsome. He had a high nose bridge and big eyes. Who asked his family to have better genes? He kept the most fashionable buzz cut on both sides. He was dressed neatly in a white short-sleeved shirt and gray khaki shorts. He only wore a watch on his wrist, which was a gift from his father for his 18th birthday. It was Eppie's Royal Oak.
Cao Zhang's band members and friends were greeting Yu Yixiao. They all called Yu Yixiao Brother Beard. After all, this senior was a little famous in the Hangzhou music circle. Even the former "The Voice of China" had asked him to recommend some contestants. However, Cao Zhang was not willing to chase after those flashy things. He only wanted to live an ordinary life with wine, music, meat, and beautiful women.
After greeting Yu Yixiao, Cao Zhang fixed his eyes on Qin Sheng. He frowned and said, "Why are you here?"
"Why can't I be here? As long as it is a property under the banner of Yuanda, it seems that I can go there." Qin Sheng heard the resistance in Cao Zhang's tone. It seemed that Cao Zhang was another rich playboy. Qin Sheng really did not know whether Cao Zhang would be able to take the road that Uncle Cao had paved for him in the future.
Cao Zhang sneered and said, "You are just an employee of my father. Why are you so arrogant? Believe it or not, I can kick you out of our company tomorrow."
"I really don't believe it," Qin Sheng retorted directly. "Damn it. Who did I offend? I ate your food, owed you, and stole from you. Why did you come up and confront me like this?"
Cao Zhang glared at Qin Sheng angrily. He really did not dare to tell his father such a thing. So far, he had rarely interfered in the company's affairs. Even during the holidays, he went to other people's companies.
Yu Yixiao did not expect Cao Zhang to have such a big reaction. He quickly laughed it off and said, "Cao Zhang, what's wrong with you? I have something to talk to Assistant Qin. Go backstage and try the musical instruments for tonight's performance."
"I'll remember you," Cao Zhang sneered and left with his friends.
After arranging his friends to the larger booth at the back and ordering drinks, Cao Zhang's friends asked, "Cao Zhang, what's going on? Who is this guy? He is so arrogant."
"A new assistant in my father's company," Cao Zhang said without taking Qin Sheng seriously at all.
A beautiful woman next to him laughed and said, "He dares to compete with you, the young master. This person is a little insensible. When you take over in the future, you will directly kick him out." "I don't want to argue with him. If I really want to teach him a lesson, it will be like a game." Cao Zhang snorted.
A friend suggested, "Do you need me to find someone to teach you a lesson and let him know his status?"
Cao Zhang really did not dare to do so. If he did, he would be challenging his father's dignity, so he quickly said, "It's none of your business. Don't worry about it. Get familiar with tonight's song first and perform well later. Don't make a mistake."
They were all second-generation rich. Going to school was a sideline, and playing music, drinking, going to bars and picking up girls was their main business …
On the other side, after Cao Zhang and the others left, Qin Sheng continued to drink mojito and stared at the first band performing on the stage tonight with a smile. It was a small local band in Hangzhou. Some of their songs were covers of others, and some were their original songs.
Yu Yixiao replied to Cao Zhang, "This kid is good at everything, but his temper is not good. Don't lower yourself to his level."
"He is from a rich family. Generally, he has a temper. After all, he has never suffered or been bullied. I can understand," Qin Sheng said casually.
After this little episode, Yu Yixiao and Qin Sheng were considered to be familiar with each other. He then said seriously, "Assistant Qin, I am afraid that you did not come to Guangyin just to sit around."
"I am Mr. Cao's special assistant. Now that the company's performance is declining, Mr. Cao is furious. Of course, I want to know what the problem is. I have to see if there is anyone who is secretly stealing from us," Qin Sheng said truthfully. He had met many people in the company. Yu Yixiao was the simplest man in Qin Sheng's opinion.
Sure enough, after listening, Yu Yixiao said bluntly, "I dare not say anything else, but I can guarantee that there is no problem with Guangyin, which I am in charge of. Mr. Cao gave me a living and let me run Guangyin. Guangyin was originally losing money. If I still fill my own pocket, then there is something wrong with me. My life is very simple. I am alone. Music and wine, the rest are worldly possessions. If you don't believe me, I can give you all the accounts of Guangyin since its establishment. "
"This is not my business. It is not up to me to believe it or not. I have to speak with facts. So I will definitely check Guangyin's accounts, but not now," Qin Sheng said without hiding.
Yu Yixiao said happily, "Anytime."
"At least after what you said, I more or less believe you, Old Yu. Don't let me down," Qin Sheng stared at Yu Yixiao and said in a low voice.
Yu Yixiao said confidently, "No, this is the bottom line and principle of a person."
After chatting for a while, another acquaintance came into Guangyin LIVE. This acquaintance was Chang Baji, who had been touring in Hangzhou these few days. Qin Sheng had a favor to ask of Chang Baji, so he asked Chang Baji to meet here.
Yu Yixiao left sensibly and came to Cao Zhang. Cao Zhang asked directly, "Brother Beard, what is this guy doing in Guangyin? Is he looking for you?"
Yu Yixiao patted Cao Zhang's shoulder and said, "Cao Zhang, don't be so impulsive. Assistant Qin is doing things for your father, and also for you. You are too young. There are many problems in the company now. What you may not know is that your father was furious in the executive meeting room of the company a few days ago. He may want to reorganize and reform. Qin Sheng is your father's sword."
"I see." Cao Zhang understood instantly. Maybe he had been resisting his father all the time. Now that he saw his father's assistant, he was also resisting subconsciously.
Yu Yixiao said quietly, "If there is nothing else later, you can go over and propose a toast. Consider it as making a friend. It will be beneficial for you when you enter the company in the future."
Yu Yixiao seldom talked about the company, but he knew that Cao Zhang was about to be in his senior year. Basically, he would join the company at the end of the year. At that time, with an ally like Qin Sheng, he could grow faster.
After Yu Yixiao said this, he left. As for whether Cao Zhang would put down his pride, he was not sure. This was Cao Zhang's business.
After Chang Baji came in and found Qin Sheng, he sat down with a smile and said, "New environment, new job, how is it?"
Qin Sheng also ordered a cup of Mojito for Chang Baji and replied, "The new environment is okay, but the new job is not smooth, so I asked Lao Chang for help."
"Tell me, what do you need help with? Hangzhou is not like Shanghai. If you need help, I can find someone to help," Chang Baji said to Qin Sheng.
After hearing this, Qin Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled happily. That meant that in Hangzhou, they were not fighting alone, but had a strong ally.
Qin Sheng took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Chang Baji, saying, "This is the financial manager of Poly International Entertainment Club. I want to get the detailed account books of Poly International for the past two years. If there are more unexpected gains, it will be better. The home address, license plate number, and phone number are all on the back. I have no time to do it, so I can only ask for your help."
In fact, Qin Sheng gave Lao Chang a very difficult task, but people like Lao Chang never shirked when doing things. Like Qin Sheng, no difficulty could stop their determination. They faced difficulties and never retreated.
"Anyway, I have nothing to do in Hangzhou. I have rested for more than half a year. It is good to have something to do. Just wait for my news," Chang Baji said confidently. He was not asking him to break into some forbidden area. He had thousands of ways to deal with an ordinary person.
Qin Sheng was very happy and said, "Okay, there is nothing to do tonight. Let's listen to music and chat."
About half an hour later, Cao Zhang and his band friends started to perform. The first song they chose was Only Music Is My Antidote by the Reflectors Band. The atmosphere on the scene was immediately ignited by this song. There should be many fans of Cao Zhang below, who screamed and shouted.
Qin Sheng could not help but think of the time when he was in high school. He, Hao Lei, Lao Meng, and the others also formed a band. The main singers were him and Su Qin. When they graduated from high school, it was the most glorious time of their three years in high school. It ended with the most classic song of glory.
What about now? Everyone walked and walked. Now, only Hao Lei was with him, and Meng Zhe could only be counted as half. Everything was the same, but the people were different.
"It is so good to be young," Qin Sheng said with emotion. Then he finished the cup of Mojito, but it was not wine.
The reason why he did not drink tonight was that he did not want to make Lin Su angry. He had been drinking for several consecutive nights for work. If he went back tonight with the smell of alcohol, Lin Su would probably have to sleep in a separate bed from him.
The songs that Cao Zhang and his band sang were quite good. There were pure domestic rock songs, fresh foreign rock songs, and some fresh folk songs. But this guy's voice was really good, comparable to his.
When their performance was over, Qin Sheng and Chang Baji applauded from the bottom of their hearts.
Just when Qin Sheng was about to leave, Cao Zhang, who had just gotten off the stage, came over with a glass of wine. He said indifferently, "This glass of wine, I apologize for what I said just now."
Qin Sheng picked up the Mojito that he was about to ask for and chuckled. "I won't drink today. If you are willing, let's try your drinking capacity when we are free."
Cao Zhang was very straightforward. "I will accompany you to the end."
After sitting for a while, Qin Sheng and Chang Baji were ready to leave. They had just stepped out of the door when Cao Zhang and his group of friends came out. They were going to change to the next place and go to the Queen to have fun for a while.
Qin Sheng and Chang Baji just arrived at the parking spot. At this time, they saw five or six unfriendly looking men coming out from around. Qin Sheng and Chang Baji's expression changed slightly. They really looked down on them.
