"Awesome."
After listening to Kim Yang-myung's theory, Chen Hansheng was stunned for a long time before he said, "I didn't expect that there would be a dragon and phoenix like me in this small dormitory 602."
"Hey, Brother Ling, let's keep a low profile."
Kim Yang-myung pressed his hands down and said steadily, "Don't let Old Yang and the others hear it. It's fine as long as we know it in our hearts."
"That's not necessary at all!"
Chen Hansheng put his arm around Kim Yang-myung's shoulder and said arrogantly, "In Class Two of Public Administration, or even in the School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Shen Youchu and Bai Yongshan have nothing but good grades. In fact, they're just trying to get a scholarship. The real pillars of the school are us two brothers."
"Damn, Brother Chen, you're so fierce."
Kim Yang-myung made a fist salute and said, "In order to show off, I didn't hesitate to step on my girlfriend."
However, after getting in the car, Chen Hansheng still seriously told Kim Yang-myung what to pay attention to. "
"You're going to play the behind-the-scenes boss of the Nutshell Electronics Factory."
Because Kim Yang-myung had no conflict of interest with business matters, Chen Hansheng told him the truth. "As for why the boss doesn't want to appear, it's mainly because it's more important now. It's not appropriate to expose it too early."
"Don't say that."
However, Kim Yang-myung was not interested at all.
"Because of interest, I once went to Jianye Academy of Arts to listen to a few classes. An acting professor once said, 'Professional actors don't care about things behind the scenes. Now I just want to know who my opponent is.'"
Kim Yang-myung said with a serious face.
Chen Hansheng nodded and thought to himself, "Because of interest, I once went to Jianye Academy of Arts to listen to a few classes." In fact, he went to Jianye Academy of Arts to see beautiful girls. He was so polite and professional.
However, he still needed to rely on Kim Yang-myung to perform, so he didn't expose him. Instead, he talked about Hong Shiyong's identity.
"Your opponent is the general manager of New Century Electronics. He's from Hong Kong. Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't remember his name. As long as you know that Nutshell and New Century are competitors, he probably wants to understand your personality and find out about your relationship with the previous general manager of New Century. He probably wants to persuade you to give up on competition and do business in harmony."
"Their relationship is quite complicated. It's a test of acting skills."
Kim Yang-myung frowned. "Why don't you play two Cantonese versions of 'Boundless Sea and Sky' by Beyond? I want to find the feeling of communicating with Hong Kong people."
"Don't bother. He can speak Mandarin."
Chen Hansheng curled his lips. "If it's related to the business or the former manager, you can just change the topic."
"You don't understand."
Kim Yang-myung educated Chen Hansheng, "This is called the ritual of a performance. I've even memorized the western menu of the Guoxin Savant's Restaurant. I'll show you what I can do when the time comes."
"Alright, I'll be waiting."
Chen Hansheng shook his head helplessly. "However, I didn't have time to download 'Boundless Sea and Sky' on this car. How about 'Girl with Wings' from Rong Zuer? It's a must-have healing song for fierce men."
"Just barely."
Kim Yang-myung closed his eyes and said in disdain.
… …
Guoxin Savant's Restaurant was located at Confucius Temple. The architectural style was traditional Anhui style, with white walls and green tiles. Hong Shiyong's secretary, Shen Mingliang, was already waiting at the lobby of the restaurant.
"Hansheng."
Shen Mingliang first greeted Chen Hansheng. He didn't dare to rashly address Kim Yang-myung as Shen Mingliang just smiled and sized Shen Mingliang up.
"General Manager Jin, the boss behind Nutshell."
Chen Hansheng introduced Shen Mingliang to each other. "This is the secretary of New Century's general manager, Shen Mingliang."
Kim Yang-myung was originally prepared to shake hands with Shen Mingliang, but after hearing that Shen Mingliang was just a secretary, he actually retracted his hand and only responded with a simple "Oh."
How should he put it? Chen Hansheng felt that this performance was a little exaggerated, but it was very similar to the image of a domineering CEO in the current Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas. For example, Xiao Jin should have watched the Dao Ming Temple in 'Meteor Garden' quite a lot.
"He's rich and powerful, so he's more willful. Senior Shen, please don't take offense."
Chen Hansheng took the initiative to shake hands with Shen Mingliang, slightly alleviating the awkwardness.
"It's fine."
Shen Mingliang really didn't mind. He took out a thick envelope from his bag and said, "General Manager Hong is in the private room. He asked me to pass this to you. He hopes that you can help to persuade General Manager Hong to not mix Nutshell into the MP4 project."
"No problem."
Chen Hansheng took the envelope. He knew that this was the 50,000 RMB reward that they had agreed on. He even said in annoyance, "Actually, I didn't want to be the middleman. It's mainly because General Manager Hong gave me too much money."
Shen Mingliang: "…"
When the three of them arrived at the private room, Hong Shiyong was reading the newspaper and sipping tea. Ever since Kim Yang-myung pushed the door open and entered, his gaze had never left him.
If compared to those upper-class rich second-generation heirs in Hong Kong, Kim Yang-myung looked a little less charming. However, he just so happened to have Chen Hansheng who was not stingy standing beside him.
With such a comparison, "General Manager Jin" was really much more pleasing to the eye.
Seeing that all the guests had arrived, the waiter brought the menu over. Hong Shiyong politely let Kim Yang-myung order so that he could take the opportunity to observe.
"I don't want this Chinese menu."
Kim Yang-myung wasn't modest and said indifferently, "Please bring me a Western menu."
"It's time to show off."
Chen Hansheng thought to himself.
"Remember! The kind that I'm writing in English. "
Kim Yang-myung even specially emphasized this sentence.
Hong Shiyong and Shen Mingliang looked at each other and didn't say anything.
When the waiter brought the menu over, Kim Yang-myung just flipped through it and said confidently, "Australian special grain-fed beef with honey juice, Peking scallions with hyssop juice, traditional French foie gras with garden salad … and a bottle of cellar red wine. Remember to be sober for at least half an hour."
"Awesome, he really showed off."
Chen Hansheng looked at Hong Shiyong and found that he also nodded slightly.
Mr. Hong would never have thought that Kim Yang-myung had memorized the menu in advance. In reality, he didn't even pass CET-4 English.
"General Manager Jin, which school did you graduate from?"
Hong Shiyong asked.
"The University of Pennsylvania in the United States."
Kim Yang-myung answered calmly.
"Pennsylvania, wonderful."
Chen Hansheng nodded again. Xiao Jin didn't mention "Harvard, Cambridge, Oxford", these lousy schools, but pulled out "Pennsylvania" from nowhere.
In 2005, ordinary people in China didn't know about this famous school, but it was still one of the eight Ivy League schools.
This showed that Kim Yang-myung knew the trick of bragging well. He didn't compete for first or second place, but quietly found a powerful background with a small reputation.
Hong Shiyong nodded. If General Manager Jin had said that he graduated from "Harvard", he might have doubted his qualifications, but hearing that he was from the University of Pennsylvania, Mr. Hong really believed him.
"General Manager Jin, after returning to China, why did you think of doing business in electronic products?"
Hong Shiyong asked again.
"It's a long story."
When it came to business issues, Kim Yang-myung began to talk nonsense. "It's mainly the arrangement of my family, so I can't reveal too much. I hope you can understand. In short, in the eyes of ordinary people, my family is the kind of business that started from selling official documents …"
"Street vendor literature is working."
Chen Hansheng thought silently. Some of the stories that Kim Yang-myung said were the results of "discussions" in Room 602. In fact, in addition to street literature, Kim Yang-myung also heard a lot of gossip in the bathhouse.
In short, the characters in the story were all famous, and they often appeared on TV. As for whether the audience believed it or not, Kim Yang-myung didn't care.
However, halfway through the story, Kim Yang-myung wanted to go out for a smoke, and pulled Chen Hansheng with him.
"You're amazing, Lao Liu. You made me believe you."
Chen Hansheng was excitedly praising, but Kim Yang-myung suddenly interrupted him. "Brother Chen, I have an elder who is critically ill, and I have to go back now."
"What?"
Chen Hansheng was stunned. They were having a good discussion, so why did he have to leave?
"You have to at least finish acting."
Chen Hansheng took a puff of smoke. "Besides, you didn't pick up the phone, so how do you know that your elder is critically ill? What's the reason?"
"Emm … I saw the secretary give you money just now. This is the reward, right?"
Kim Yang-myung gestured. "It's such a thick envelope, but you only gave me 1,000 RMB. You're too generous!"
"Fine."
Chen Hansheng stared at Kim Yang-myung for a while, and said after a while, "Then tell me what you want. What can I do to make your elder die two hours later?"
"10,000 RMB!"
Kim Yang-myung gave a high price. "Only 10,000 RMB, and I guarantee that he can die two hours later."
Chen Hansheng didn't even bother to talk, and turned to leave.
“7000!”
Kim Yang-myung hurriedly stopped him. "7,000 RMB is negotiable."
“5000。”
Chen Hansheng directly said, "5,000 RMB. Do you want it or not?"
"Yes, yes, yes."
Kim Yang-myung immediately agreed. This was the price of a mobile phone. Besides, he usually didn't have the chance to extort money from his fourth brother. He was as smart as a monkey.
After smoking, the two went to the toilet to pee. Chen Hansheng was still very upset.
He had actually extorted one-tenth of the 50,000 RMB from Kim Yang-myung, so he didn't like Kim Yang-myung as much as before.
"Little Jin, why did you choose such a shitty hotel? The toilet even has voice-activated lights."
Chen Hansheng scolded. "If I take a dump here at night, do I have to applaud myself? Otherwise, what will I do in the dark?"
Kim Yang-myung was given an extra 4,000 RMB for no reason. Even though he was mocked by Chen Hansheng, he didn't talk back. After entering the private room, the two returned to normal.
In fact, when Chen Hansheng and Kim Yang-myung went out for a smoke, Hong Shiyong and Shen Mingliang had a short conversation.
"Shen, what do you think of this Mr. Jin?"
"I think he's a bit arrogant."
Shen Mingliang didn't have the nerve to say that he was too pretentious. He graduated from Jianye Normal University and was very familiar with the pretentious temperament of college students. Although Kim Yang-myung's acting was very good, he could more or less feel it.
In addition, this Mr. Jin also lacked a kind of arrogance. The boss of Nutshell had directly tore up the lawyer's letter and even sent it back provocatively.
If it wasn't for the timing, Shen Mingliang really wanted to make a joke. Chen Hansheng, who was lying on the chair and biting a toothpick, was more in line with the image of the boss of Nutshell.
"He's indeed a bit arrogant."
Hong Shiyong thought for a while and said, "However, it could also be that Mr. Jin did it on purpose. Every time I mentioned Zheng Guanfu and the MP4, he would change the topic. He probably doesn't want to talk about these things."
"Then what do you want to do?" Shen Mingliang asked.
"I've decided to increase the investment in the MP4. Since Mr. Jin doesn't want to talk about it, it means that he doesn't have the intention to make peace."
Hong Shiyong took a deep breath. "So, this meal is still useful. Because it dispelled the little bit of hope in my heart. I plan to have a decisive battle and five card stud on the MP4 project."
