Falling in Love with a Rich Godfather 3
After Tao Wan left, the guests who were listening to the music closed their eyes and sat quietly for a long time before the music finally faded from their ears. When they opened their eyes, they immediately grabbed the staff next to them and asked if they could still hear the musician play at the same time tomorrow and if they could book a seat now.
Someone even asked how much it would cost to book a private room and if they could book a seat now. The staff was also smart. After being stunned for a moment, they quickly reacted and said that the musician's schedule was not out yet. If they wanted to book a seat, they could come back tomorrow and ask.
Boss Chen and the others also thought about it for a moment before they stood up and walked out. Manager Wu saw that the guests were all asking questions and wanted to immediately talk to Tao Wan. However, he could not leave Boss Chen and the others alone. He waved his hand and called over a staff member and asked him to tell Tao Wan to stay for a while and not leave in a hurry.
After that, Manager Wu immediately followed Boss Chen and the others. He was prepared to help Boss Chen and the others arrange their seats and then immediately talk to Tao Wan.
When they walked out of the private room, Boss Chen suddenly stopped and said, "You guys go in first. I have a few words to say to Manager Wu. I'll be back soon."
The others sensibly entered the private room first. Then, Manager Wu led Boss Chen to another lounge.
"Boss Chen? Do you have any orders? "Manager Wu stood by the table and asked.
"That young man just now played the piano quite well. He's also quite good-looking." Boss Chen paused and then went straight to the topic of the conversation. "I've been talking to Eagle Vision Group's Chairman Wei recently. However, Boss Wei seems to be in a bad mood recently and we haven't been able to reach an agreement. Chairman Wei was also a person who liked to listen to zither music. However, the ones that could satisfy him were all veteran zither players who were much older. It's rare to meet such a young and beautiful musician. If you can convince him to make Boss Wei happy, I can consider helping you with the thing you've been asking me to do. "
Manager Wu originally wanted to say that the child had a bad temper and that it might be difficult for him to please Boss Wei. However, when he heard that Boss Chen could help him solve the problem that had been troubling him recently, he immediately swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. Instead, he changed his wording and said, "The child's parents are both dead, and he has a sick brother. Recently, he has to pay school fees. He was a student at Tōkyō University, and the tuition there was notoriously expensive. He was short of money recently, so there was a high chance of persuading him. However, this child used to come from a well-off family, so he had a bit of a young master's temper … But don't worry, I will try my best to convince him. "
"There's one thing you must remember." Boss Chen tapped the table with his finger and said, "You can't force or threaten him. He must be willing to do it. Also, you mentioned that he has a young master's temper. If he can't control his temper, he definitely can't present himself to Boss Wei. Otherwise, it's fine if he can't please Boss Wei. However, if he offends Boss Wei, both of us will have a hard time. It's hard to say if you can still be a manager. "
"Don't worry, I know how important these relationships are. Even if it was someone else, I wouldn't dare to force him, let alone Boss Wei. If he offends someone, I'll be implicated as well." Manager Wu didn't dare to say that the original owner had just offended someone. He was worried that Boss Chen would regret it immediately. He felt that there was a high chance of persuading Tao Wan.
After Tao Wan finished playing the piano, he was supposed to leave immediately. Today, he showed off his piano skills so that Manager Wu would take the initiative to ask him to stay. When he returned, it was possible that Manager Wu would personally ask him to stay. Even if Manager Wu didn't ask him to stay, he could still find a job at another teahouse.
Before he could change his clothes, a staff member came to him and said that Manager Wu wanted him to stay. Tao Wan originally wanted to go back and wait for Manager Wu to come to him personally. However, since he wanted to talk to him now, he decided to stay.
Tao Wan drank tea in the manager's office. After about half an hour, Manager Wu walked in.
"Manager Wu." Tao Wan stood up.
"Sit, sit, sit." Manager Wu hurriedly waved his hand at Tao Wan. After he sat down in his office chair, he looked at Tao Wan and said, "Tell me the truth. Did you hide your true strength before?"
Tao Wan pretended to hesitate and said, "Manager, you know that people like me who have no background are different from other young musicians with backgrounds. I've already hidden my true strength, but I still can't avoid being taken advantage of. That's why I don't dare to show my true strength. "
"Then what are you doing today …"
"I had to leave because I offended a customer. If I didn't show my true strength, it would be difficult to find a job at another teahouse. I'm worried that Manager Wu will think that I deliberately hid my strength here and only showed it when I went to another teahouse. I'm afraid that you won't have a good impression of me. "
"Look at you," Manager Wu shook his head helplessly and said, "If you had told me earlier that you were so skilled in the guqin, I would have arranged for you to go to Fufeng Courtyard to play the guqin. The prices there are high and there are tips. The customers are also generous. Don't you want to earn more money?"
"I've been forced to a certain point. I can only think about making more money." Tao Wan sighed and said.
"I have a good opportunity to make money. It can let you earn enough money for your tuition. Are you willing to listen?"
Tao Wan paused and said, "If you want to say that someone wants to keep me, then forget it. No matter how short of money I am, I can't accept this kind of thing."
"Don't rush to refuse. Don't worry, I won't force you. Also, this person's identity is a bit special. If you offend him, I won't have a good time either. So, you have to be willing. " Manager Wu said, "I'm just saying. If you don't want to, then just pretend that I didn't say anything."
Tao Wan was silent. He didn't say whether he wanted to listen or not. Because he knew that as long as he didn't say anything, Manager Wu would definitely continue.
"You studied Chinese painting, so you have a better understanding of Chinese literature. However, you probably don't know much about the business world." Manager Wu said, "But you must have heard of Eagle Vision Group. After all, they are involved in many industries, such as supermarkets, hospitals, hotels, and so on. Eagle Vision is one of the best in all the industries that ordinary people can come into contact with. "
When Tao Wan heard Eagle Vision, his heart skipped a beat. He was indeed familiar with this name, but it wasn't the kind of familiarity that Manager Wu thought he was familiar with.
"Eagle Vision's Chairman Wei is a person who likes to listen to the guqin. It's rare that you can play the guqin so well, and you're also young and good-looking. If you can get into Chairman Wei's eyes, you definitely won't have to worry about money anymore. Also, you'll have a big backer. As long as he's willing to protect you, who would dare to bully you in the future? "Manager Wu looked at Tao Wan and said," Do you understand what I mean? "
"The Chairman Wei you're talking about, is it Chairman Wei Shicheng?" Tao Wan confirmed with Manager Wu. He didn't want to ask clearly and get the wrong person.
"Yes." Manager Wu nodded. "That's him."
"Then, as long as I play the guqin for him? Or do I have to please him in other ways? "Tao Wan lowered his eyes and asked.
"If you only play the guqin for him, there's actually no need for you. There are a lot of high-class guqin players lined up for him to choose from. The reason you have this opportunity is mainly because those who play better than you don't look as good as you, and those who look as good as you don't know how to play the guqin as well. Do you understand? "
Tao Wan continued to be silent. He showed a relaxed and hesitant expression. Because he had rejected the offer the first time, and now he immediately agreed. It didn't seem right.
After Manager Wu saw his hesitation, he continued to try to persuade him. "Actually, I can understand why you rejected those who wanted to keep you, so after I mentioned it to you, I didn't say anything if you weren't willing, right? But this time, I mainly feel that this is an excellent opportunity for you. " “
You should have seen Boss Wei's appearance on the news. Many rich young ladies and young masters are attracted to him. They cry and shout that they want to marry him, but they can't. Although you can't marry him, just treat it as if you're in a relationship with him. Don't think of it as something unbearable. You're young, so you have to have a few relationships. Boss Wei is someone who many people want but can't get. If you take the money and date him, you'll make a lot of money. "
"I don't want to make such a deal …" Tao Wan looked conflicted. "But I really need money. I'm about to pay for the next quarter's tuition, and I still have to buy medicine for Du Yi …"
Manager Wu rolled his eyes and said, "Actually, I'm just saying this to you first. It's not certain if Boss Wei will like you. After all, there are so many young and beautiful women who want to climb … and do that with him. Boss Wei must be used to good-looking women. Maybe he's tired of them. Even if you're willing, you might not be able to attract Boss Wei's interest. Plus, you have a bit of a young master's temper. I'm really worried that you'll anger him. "
Tao Wan pretended to be stunned. Then, he said anxiously, "Let me try. I, I'll try my best to please him."
"To be honest, with your temper, I'm really worried. If you offend Boss Wei, I'll be finished with you." Manager Wu said. He was really worried.
"Manager Wu, don't worry. I splashed Boss Zhang with water because he's too disgusting, so I couldn't help it. But if it's Boss Wei, I definitely don't have the guts. I saw Boss Wei's interview on the news. Even through the screen, I could feel his oppressive aura. "
Manager Wu couldn't help but laugh. "So you're also someone who cares about looks. Alright, I'll let you try. But let's make this clear first. No matter whether Boss Wei likes you or not, and no matter what he wants to do to you, you can't offend him. Do you understand? "
"Got it," Tao Wan replied softly.
Manager Wu received Tao Wan's reply. After Tao Wan left, he couldn't wait to inform Boss Chen and ask him to find time to bring Boss Wei over.
When Tao Wan returned home, he was pleasantly surprised. He didn't think that he would have the chance to meet his main target in this world so soon. He originally thought that he would have to wait until Wei Shicheng had a bit of fame in this world before he could have the chance to meet him.
But this wasn't a bad idea. First, he could seduce him and then cultivate their relationship. In short, he had to find out what kind of person he was before he could capture him as soon as possible.
A few days later, Boss Chen finally managed to get Wei Shicheng to bring him to the teahouse for tea. In the past few days, Tao Wan didn't go to the teahouse to play the guqin in preparation for Wei Shicheng's arrival. Manager Wu still paid him daily.
Manager Wu's idea was that even if Tao Wan didn't succeed in getting Wei Shicheng's attention, he had to keep him. He couldn't let him go to other teahouses to play the guqin. Otherwise, their competitors would have another strong helper.
Wei Shicheng knew that Boss Chen really wanted to work with him, but he really wasn't interested in working with Boss Chen. Plus, he had a lot of things to worry about during this time, so he had already rejected Boss Chen's invitation several times. But they were all in this circle and they would see each other often. Boss Chen's influence wasn't small, so he couldn't keep rejecting him and make him lose face. If there were other opportunities to work with him in the future, it wouldn't be easy to talk about it again.
"Boss Wei, how long has it been since you last drank tea and listened to the guqin?" Boss Chen asked with a smile.
"There have been a lot of things recently. It's true that I haven't been able to enjoy tea and listen to the guqin in peace for a while." Wei Shicheng put down his teacup and said.
"I'm older than Boss Wei, so I'll play the role of an elder to Boss Wei and talk about my experience. Sometimes, it's easier for people to solve problems in front of them when they're relaxed. Today, we'll just drink tea and listen to the guqin. We won't talk about work. Let's both relax. "
Wei Shicheng smiled and said, "Boss Chen is right."
The side door of the private room was opened, and Wei Shicheng saw a figure appear behind the screen. After a while, a melodious sound rang out.
When a guqin master played in a private room, he usually stayed behind the screen and didn't show his face. This was because those who could play in a VIP room were all older guqin masters. Therefore, they used the screen to block the person playing the guqin and only focused on listening to the guqin.
Boss Chen didn't say a word after that. He just drank tea and listened to the guqin. It was rare to hear such elegant guqin music, so he was really relaxing and enjoying it.
Wei Shicheng experienced the artistic conception of the guqin music as he narrowed his eyes and observed the figure behind the screen. After observing for a while, he was sure that the person behind the screen was a very young guqin master.
Wei Shicheng glanced at Boss Chen, who was seriously listening to the guqin music. He didn't really believe that Boss Chen invited him time and time again just to let him relax. If he didn't want to talk about cooperation, then he must have other motives.
After the song ended, Boss Chen couldn't help but clap his hands and praise. Then, he turned his head and asked Wei Shicheng, "Boss Wei, what do you think?"
"Ever since Master Liu Ying passed away, I haven't heard such a leisurely guqin music in a long time." Wei Shicheng praised from the bottom of his heart. He usually didn't praise people, but the guqin music he heard this time was worthy of praise.
"Yeah!" Boss Chen sighed and said, "When I heard him play the guqin last time, I felt that his guqin music had Master Liu Ying's style. I thought that President Wei and I both liked Master Liu Ying's guqin music style, so we specifically asked Boss Wei to listen to it together. "
"The guqin master behind, come over here," Boss Chen called out.
Tao Wan was originally listening to them from behind the screen. When he heard Boss Chen calling him over, he got up and walked around the screen to stand in front of them.
Wei Shicheng was surprised to see that the person who walked out was so young. He could tell that the person playing the guqin was a young man, but he didn't expect him to be so young and so good-looking. He had a pink peach blossom face that made people feel that he was very beautiful. However, his temperament was somewhat cold. It was obvious that he was a cold and arrogant person.
"You played very well. This is a tip for you. Play another song for us." Boss Chen took out a gold card from his wallet and handed it to Tao Wan.
Tao Wan took the card and thanked him. Just as he was about to return to the screen and play the guqin again, Boss Chen said, "Ask your manager to come over and remove this screen. It's not like he's an old man that people can't get used to. There's no need to cover it up."
When the staff outside heard this, they immediately notified the manager who was waiting downstairs.
The manager immediately brought people over to remove the screen. After everyone left, Tao Wan started playing the guqin again.
