When Li Dong left Ji Province, it was already November 7th.
It was only a few days away from November 11th.
In order to rush for the trip, Li Dong's convoy went straight to Capital City early in the morning.
As for Jinmen, Qi Yunna had just finished her patrol, so Li Dong did not go there anymore. He believed that there would be no problem with Qi Yunna personally guarding the place.
Now that Qi Yunna had also gone to Capital City, as the capital, Li Dong had to go there personally to take a look.
Originally, Shimen was not too far from Capital City. If everything went smoothly, they could reach it in about three hours by car.
However, on the way, snowflakes suddenly floated down from the sky.
After a while, it was no longer snowflakes, but heavy snowflakes!
The snowstorm was coming!
The weather had just cleared up, and there was no longer snow in Ji Province and the Capital area.
Just when everyone thought that the snow had passed, a huge snowstorm arrived.
According to the statistics of the meteorological department, this huge snowstorm was the biggest snowstorm in 54 years in the Shimen area, including the surrounding areas!
Even in 2008, a snowstorm that was considered a huge snowstorm in the South was actually not rare in the North.
However, in November 2009, some areas in the North welcomed a snowstorm that was even more violent than in 2008.
…
At the service area.
Li Dong's convoy was forced to stop.
The road ahead was just blocked.
Just now, not long after the snowstorm arrived, a few cars had a series of rear-end accidents.
Although the injuries were not too serious, the road ahead was blocked.
The municipal and transportation departments were not fully prepared because of the early arrival of the snowstorm.
At this time, the snowstorm was still pouring down. It was obviously not easy to deal with the accident in a short time.
The road was blocked, and the service area closest to the accident site was also overcrowded.
Many people were complaining. Even in the North, it was rare to see snow in November, let alone a huge snowstorm.
Li Dong's convoy entered the service area. Because the snow was too heavy, no one paid attention at first.
However, when Li Dong led his people to the service area, someone vaguely recognized Li Dong.
Then, there was a cry of surprise from the crowd. Someone exclaimed, "Li Dong!"
"Who?"
"Brother Cannon is here!"
"Really?"
"…"
There was a commotion in the crowd. When Li Dong led his people to the entrance of the service area covered in snow, everyone finally confirmed that it was really Li Dong.
When many people saw that Li Dong had also arrived, they hurriedly rushed forward.
When Tan Yong and the others saw this situation, they hurriedly went up and surrounded Li Dong.
With so many people at the scene, it was even more difficult for Li Dong to protect him.
Li Dong didn't care that much. This was just a coincidence. Besides, he wasn't the only one here. If he was always in fear, he wouldn't even be able to go out in the future.
Of course, Li Dong didn't let Tan Yong and the others leave. He called out to them and waited for the crowd to calm down before waving his hand to let Tan Yong and the others retreat to the side.
After all, they were all strangers. In fact, there was nothing much to talk about.
In addition, Li Dong's identity wasn't ordinary. When everyone calmed down, not many people dared to take the initiative to talk to Li Dong.
At this time, Li Dong also had something to do. After a few polite words, he whispered to Kong Xiangyu and the others about business.
"There's a snowstorm. I don't know if it's just this area or the entire northern region. Later, you guys ask about the situation and let me know when it's clear. Director Kong, the snow is so heavy that it's a test for the logistics group. Are you confident that we can complete the task? "
Kong Xiangyu looked at the snow outside. It was a vast expanse of whiteness. He couldn't see anyone from a few meters away.
His face was solemn. After a while, he said, "I can't give a definite answer for now. If such a big snowstorm continues for a day and night, then …"
The snow was too heavy!
With such heavy snow falling for a day and night, the clean-up work would take at least half a month.
Moreover, the snow this year came too early. All the departments weren't prepared.
They didn't know when the road clean-up work would be completed.
At this time, the test for the logistics group Far away was too big.
Li Dong frowned. After a while, he said, "True gold is refined by fire!
The more it is at this time, the more it tests people.
No matter what, the preparation work has to be done. The patrols have to continue.
Not only the patrols, but the vehicles have been distributed in advance. Following that, all kinds of heating equipment, gloves, down jackets, hats, anti-skid shoes …
These things that can be used have been distributed.
As the largest retail group in the country, we don't lack these things. There are a lot of stocks in various warehouses.
As for the logistics company, we have to do a good job in protecting these external items … "
Kong Xiangyu nodded. Then, he looked outside and said, "General Manager Li, why don't you return to Shigen first? I'll lead the team to continue the patrols. The snow is too heavy. It's not safe on the road … "
Li Dong shook his head and said, "Not this time. Even if I cherish my life, I know that this is the time to boost morale.
As the boss, I've already set the itinerary. Everyone knows that I'm going.
But if I don't go when it snows, what will everyone think?
On a snowy day, everyone is working hard outside. Although we give them salaries and bonuses …
But won't everyone feel bad?
Is the boss that valuable?
He has to be escorted by the cars and bodyguards when he goes in and out. Just because it's snowing, he actually doesn't want to go?
It's fine if the news of the patrols hasn't been announced. But now that it's announced, can I not go? "
With that said, he saw that Tan Yong wanted to say something too. Li Dong smiled and pressed his hand down. "Don't say anymore. It's just snowing, not bullets. I'm not that bad, right? As long as you drive steadily and sit in the car with the air conditioner, do you think I'll freeze? "
Kong Xiangyu thought for a moment and said, "The snow is too heavy. Our journey might be delayed. General Manager Li, why don't we split up to patrol? That will save us a lot of time."
Li Dong thought for a moment. Just as he was about to speak, there was a sudden commotion outside the service area.
…
"Yuan Xue, what's the meaning of this? Are you looking down on us? "
"That's right. What's the big deal!"
"Nana, don't be angry. There's no need to argue with this kind of person …"
In the heavy snow, four to five women walked while comforting a seemingly delicate girl in the crowd.
On the other side, Yuan Xue, who had not said a word, became the target of everyone's crusade.
The leading agent saw that the newcomers were making a lot of noise. In addition to the snow blocking the road, he was afraid that the interview would be delayed. He was a little annoyed.
At this time, seeing that Yuan Xue did not speak, another artist who had been picked by the production crew felt wronged and said impatiently, "Ah Xue, apologize to Nana!"
Yuan Xue frowned slightly but did not say anything.
The agent was already in a bad mood. In addition, these people were not big shots. Seeing the situation, he immediately scolded, "I asked you to apologize. Who are you showing that cold face to? You always have this expression, as if someone owes you something. Do you think that you're so great just because you played a small role in East Star? Do you really think that you're a big shot with so many small roles? If the company didn't give you opportunities and resources, what would you be? "
The agent scolded a few times impatiently. She was too lazy to ask about the situation of these people. After working in this industry for so many years, what didn't she know?
When Yuan Xue first entered the company, she was recommended by the company to go to East Star for an interview. In the end, she even passed.
Not long ago, she had just finished filming in East Star. Although it was just a small role, it was still enviable.
In addition, this woman usually did not talk much and did not have a good relationship with others. It was normal for others to be envious and exclude newcomers.
Although she understood and knew, the agent did not ask about this.
She also knew about Yuan Xue. She was a top student who graduated from a famous school. She was probably very arrogant.
From her usual words and actions, she did not communicate with others.
This kind of person had to be suppressed.
After all, she was a newcomer in the industry. No matter how good the school she graduated from, it was not very useful in the entertainment industry.
As a newcomer, even if the others were also newcomers, they were older than her, so she had to learn to respect her seniors.
Otherwise, if she really became popular in the future, the company might not be able to suppress her.
After being scolded by the agent, Yuan Xue walked and frowned. "I didn't say anything …"
"You still dare to say that you didn't say anything?"
Someone next to her immediately interrupted and said angrily, "Nana did not prepare well before going out, did she? It's snowing heavily and the weather is too cold. You brought a lot of clothes, so what's wrong with lending you one? If it were us, let alone borrowing it, we could even give a few to Nana. But you forcibly took it off Nana. What do you mean by that? "
Yuan Xue frowned again. After thinking for a while, she explained, "That coat was a gift from my friend. Besides, I said to change it to something else and let her pick one …"
Someone in the crowd sneered. "Come on, you are deliberately showing off!
Are you afraid that we don't know that you have a lot of branded clothes?
I was there. It's not like I didn't see it. When you opened your suitcase, it was full of branded clothes. You asked Nana to pick one as if you were giving charity. Did you think that no one could afford it?
Nana saw that your down jacket was cheap, so she borrowed it at the last minute to wear it.
In the end, you asked Nana to take it off on the spot. Isn't that looking down on people?
You can't bully people like that! "
"Sister Hua, don't say anymore …" The delicate girl next to her looked aggrieved. She said softly, "Maybe Sister Xue didn't mean it that way. It's my fault too. I should have prepared before leaving."
"Nana, you are just too kind. East Star originally chose you, but I don't know how someone played tricks and replaced you in that show. In the entertainment industry, people's hearts are the darkest and dirtiest! A newcomer who doesn't know anything and has never acted before was actually chosen. Who would believe that? "
The woman who was called Sister Hua spoke in a mocking tone. She also tried to provoke them.
The lower the status of an artist, the more direct and fierce the fight.
For the sake of fame, no matter how fierce the fight, they would not say it publicly for the sake of their reputation.
Yuan Xue, because she had starred in East Star's TV show as soon as she entered the company, almost instantly became the public enemy in everyone's eyes.
If this woman really had a powerful background, everyone would have accepted it and even tried to please her.
But according to their understanding, she had been chosen by East Star purely because of luck.
This kind of beautiful woman with no background was also their favorite target to suppress, so that she would not be robbed of their resources in the future.
While everyone was arguing, they arrived at the service station.
When they saw that there were many people standing outside, the people who had been arguing fiercely just now stopped talking. They put on an unfriendly expression and stood together to the side.
The agent originally wanted to suppress Yuan Xue again, but she didn't want to be a joke in public. She glanced at Yuan Xue and didn't say anything.
However, her eyes were a little sharp. She had just asked Yuan Xue to apologize, but Yuan Xue didn't do as she wanted, which made her a little angry.
Her eyes were obviously telling Yuan Xue that she would settle the score later.
When they came over, they were a little reserved. They didn't look around, nor did they look at other people.
On the other side of the crowd, Li Dong saw Yuan Xue, who was isolated to one side.
Looking at Yuan Xue, Li Dong's eyes were a little complicated.
Although he didn't hear their conversation very clearly, he still heard part of it.
Li Dong actually had very complicated feelings for Yuan Xue.
Speaking of love, it might not be love.
Speaking of possessiveness, it might be a little, but not much.
In fact, it was more of a kind of pity.
This woman was very silly and naive. She fantasized about the love story in fairy tales and imagined that Li Dong was the Prince Charming she had been waiting for all her life.
When Li Dong and Shen Qian got married and had children, Qin Yuhan was actually very dissatisfied and angry.
But Yuan Xue wasn't dissatisfied or angry.
More than anything else, she was waiting.
Waiting for Li Dong to visit her, waiting for Li Dong to call her often, waiting for all of this to happen. Even if there was no certificate, she was willing.
But in the end, she couldn't wait for all of this.
During Shen Qian's pregnancy, Li Dong reduced his contact with them.
However, during this period, Li Dong still saw Qin Yuhan, but he didn't see Yuan Xue even once.
Including the phone, in the later stage of Shen Qian's pregnancy, Li Dong almost didn't contact her.
Although Yuan Xue didn't say why Yuan Xue wanted to join the entertainment industry, Li Dong guessed her intention with a little guess.
Perhaps she was looking forward to using this method to let her enter Li Dong's sight again. She wanted to know if the man she had been waiting for still remembered her.
But was it really so easy for a newcomer with no experience and no background to stand out?
Could she really enter Li Dong's sight in this way?
Yuan Xue was not stupid. She probably knew that the possibility was very low, but she was just comforting herself.
Maybe it was to find an excuse for herself. I haven't become famous yet, so he doesn't care about me.
When I become famous, he will naturally see me.
How long was this time?
Three years? Five years? Or ten years?
She didn't know, and she didn't need to know. If she didn't become famous, she would continue to endure until she became famous …
Looking at Yuan Xue, who was isolated in the crowd, she was as cold as ever. Looking at her staring at the snowflakes outside in a daze, her cold look made people not dare to go up and talk to her.
However, Li Dong knew that she was not as cold as she looked. It was just a habit of self-protection.
Not continuing to watch, Li Dong walked to the other side.
Tan Yong had already seen Yuan Xue, and hurriedly led his men to follow.
…
After all, Li Dong was not invisible. There were still people in the crowd talking about him and paying attention to him.
Yuan Xue's agent also heard from others that Li Dong was here. Hua Xia's most legendary and outstanding man was here.
When Li Dong walked over, the agent saw him.
She didn't know if Li Dong was coming to her side, or if he was going to enter the service area lobby. But no matter what, the agent quickly whispered to the other artists, "Don't just stand there. When he comes, say hello immediately!"
The agent knew that Zhao Liying, who was now doing well in the entertainment industry, had met Li Dong by chance at the airport.
Li Dong's "not bad" made East Star invest a lot of resources in her.
She had gone from being a minor character to being known as the new generation's leading actress. To the big shots, it was just a 'not bad' evaluation.
At this time, if they could attract Li Dong's attention, even if he said something casually, then the company could take the opportunity to infinitely expand this point and do a lot of publicity.
And a big boss like Li Dong obviously wouldn't care about such a small thing.
Just when the agent was nervous, and the other artists were also looking forward to it, Yuan Xue came back to her senses.
She didn't hear what the people were talking about, but she felt a burst of attention from behind.
Just as she turned around, suddenly there was a burst of sweet and flattering greetings.
"Hello, General Manager Li!"
"Hello, General Manager Li. It's such an honor to meet General Manager Li here."
"General Manager Li looks younger and more handsome in person than in the video …"
"…"
Several women, with nervous and flattering tones, hurriedly greeted Li Dong the moment he walked over.
And Yuan Xue, her body slightly stagnated, not knowing whether to turn around or not.
…
Facing these people's greetings, Li Dong didn't reply.
Staring at the agent in her thirties in front of him for a while, Li Dong said lightly, "Are you from that … that Star Creation Entertainment Company?"
The agent looked nervous when Li Dong looked at her.
However, when Li Dong said the name of their company, the other party immediately became ecstatic and hurriedly said, "Yes, we are from Star Creation Entertainment. I didn't expect General Manager Li to know our company. It's such an honor! Our company also has cooperation with East Star Entertainment. I also had the honor to communicate with President Hu once … We have admired General Manager Li for a long time. Unfortunately, you have been too busy, so there has been no such opportunity … "
The agent hurriedly introduced herself and pulled East Star out, once again getting closer to Li Dong.
Unexpectedly, Li Dong raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't know your company, nor do I know that you have cooperation with East Star. The reason why I know your company's name is because Yuan Xue is there."
"Yuan … Yuan Xue …"
The agent was stunned, and so were the other women.
Li Dong said lightly, "What? Didn't Yuan Xue tell you about me? I have known her for many years, and we are classmates. If I'm not wrong, the cheap clothes you mentioned should also be a gift from me. You don't know about this? "
The agent's face instantly turned pale!
She had been in this circle for many years, so she was not stupid.
Thinking that no one knew them before, they didn't pay much attention to what they said. Obviously, Li Dong heard them.
Now that Li Dong mentioned this as soon as he arrived, it was obvious that he was not joking.
He was Yuan Xue's friend and classmate. In fact, thinking more about it, Yuan Xue's clothes were all gifts from Li Dong.
Between a man and a woman, pure friends rarely gave each other clothes.
Thinking about how everyone was mocking Yuan Xue and ostracizing Yuan Xue just now, and how she even asked her to apologize …
Thinking of this, the agent's legs suddenly felt weak.
She was not the only one. The rookies beside her were also pale. Their faces were drained of color. Following that, they looked at Yuan Xue with pleading looks in their eyes.
At this time, Yuan Xue also turned around and gently bit her red lips. She did not look at anyone else, but her eyes were fixed on Li Dong's face. After a while, she said, "Why are you here?"
"I went to Beijing to settle some matters, so I got stuck here. What about you? "
"… Settling some matters …"
"Going to film?"
"… Yes." Yuan Xue replied in a low voice, not knowing what to say.
Li Dong sighed and said, "If you really want to film, you can do whatever you want with East Star. Why do you have to join these small companies? It's a mess, and it's not safe. If you don't want to be a star, you should quit as soon as possible. It's not that I don't know about some things, but I've been in a lot of trouble recently. I was thinking of visiting you after I'm done with my work … "
Yuan Xue's face instantly turned red. Obviously, she felt that it was inappropriate for Li Dong to say this in front of so many people.
However, Li Dong did not mind. He glanced at the people next to him and said with a faint smile, "I don't think they have the guts to gossip! If there are any rumors … "
Li Dong snorted softly, but did not continue speaking.
If it were any other time, he would not have said this.
But at this time, his mood was rather complicated. In addition, these people had joined forces to exclude Yuan Xue, which made him feel uncomfortable.
If it weren't for the fact that the other party did not take any actual action, Li Dong would not have just threatened them verbally.
Even so, when Li Dong said this, the few people's faces turned pale.
The agent, whose legs were weak, quickly said with a trembling voice, "Li … General Manager Li, we … we definitely won't speak carelessly …"
Li Dong ignored her. In addition, there were many people around. Although they did not surround them, Old Tan and the others were guarding the periphery in advance, but it was still not convenient to talk here.
After thinking about it, Li Dong looked at Yuan Xue and said, "Let's go to my car and have a chat."
"Now?"
"Yes, what are you afraid of? Who knows you? We are all passers-by. What's wrong with us old friends meeting and having a chat? Let's go, let's talk in the car. "
"But …" Yuan Xue was actually a little confused at this time, and her mind was a little blank.
Li Dong ignored her and reached out to pull her.
Seeing that there were still many people around, Yuan Xue hurriedly retracted her hand and said with a red face, "Don't touch me. I'll walk by myself."
Li Dong laughed involuntarily. He did not make things difficult for her and walked out.
As soon as he left, Yuan Xue gritted her teeth and followed him out.
When the two of them disappeared into the white snow, there was a burst of heavy breathing.
On a snowy day, the agent was sweating profusely and her body was wet. Obviously, she was sweating all over.
At this time, just as they were gasping for breath, Tan Yong passed by them and said with an expressionless face, "Watch your mouths. Only you guys know Miss Yuan here. If there are rumors outside, I will only look for you guys!"
Without waiting for them to speak, Tan Yong led his men out of the service area in the wind and snow.
When they were all gone, someone among them gulped and said, "Yuan Xue …"
"Shut up!"
The agent hurriedly scolded and said fiercely, "Who allowed you to call out her name? Don't ask or say anything. Just pretend that nothing happened today! "
The expressions on their faces changed, and then they nodded fiercely.
Now that they were being targeted by Li Dong, if word got out, they wouldn't be able to escape.
At this time, the crowd outside also whispered at this time.
However, when Li Dong spoke to these people before, his voice was not loud, so they did not hear it. At this time, they were just a little curious about the woman who left with Li Dong.
Someone wanted to go forward to inquire about the gossip, but the remaining women did not say a word. The scene was so awkward that no one asked anymore.
For this kind of thing, people guessed a few words in their hearts, but they did not take it too seriously.
For a big shot in the business world like Li Dong, if there really was some love news, it would only be gossip news, not to the extent of causing trouble to the outside world.
There was too much love news about Li Dong, and it was difficult to distinguish the truth from the lies.
Whether it was a secretary, a senior executive, a strong woman in the business world, or a celebrity like Yang Si, as long as there was even a little relationship with Li Dong, it was one of the main protagonists of gossip.
Today's scene at most proved that the gossip was not groundless.
