Someone even asked how much the private room would cost per hour. Could they order it now? The staff members were quick-witted. After being stunned for a moment, they quickly reacted and said that the schedule for this musician was not out yet. If they wanted to order this musician's time, they could come back tomorrow to ask.
Boss Chen and the others also thought about it for a moment before standing up and walking out. Manager Wu saw that the guests were all asking questions. He wanted to immediately talk to Tao Wan, but he could not leave Boss Chen and the others alone. He waved his hand and called a staff member over. He asked him to tell Tao Wan to stay for a while and not leave in a hurry. He had something to say to him.
After passing on the instructions, Manager Wu immediately followed Boss Chen and the others. He was prepared to help Boss Chen and the others arrange things and then immediately go to 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? What orders do you have? "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 point. "I've been talking to Eagle Vision Group's Chairman Wei about a collaboration. However, Boss Wei seems to be in a bad mood recently. 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 would be difficult for him to please Boss Wei. However, when he heard Boss Chen say that he could help him solve the problem that had been troubling him recently, he immediately swallowed his words. He changed his words and said, "This child's parents are both dead. He has a sick younger brother and recently has to pay tuition. He's a student at Tōkyō University. The tuition there is notoriously expensive. He's been in need of money recently. It's very possible to convince him. However, this child used to be from a good family, so he has a bit of a young master's temper … But don't worry, I'll 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 said 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 you and I will have a hard time. It's hard to say if you can still be a manager. "
"Don't worry, I know how powerful these relationships are. Don't mention pleasing Boss Wei. Even if I had to please someone else, I wouldn't dare to force him. If he offends someone, I'll be dragged down with him." 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 that he could convince 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. Even if Manager Wu didn't ask him to stay, he could still find a job in other teahouses.
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. However, since he wanted to talk to him now, he decided to stay.
Tao Wan was drinking 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 quickly 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 Yuan pretended to be hesitant and said, "Manager, you also know that people like me who have no backing and background are different from other young zither players with backgrounds. I hid my true strength, but I still couldn't avoid being taken advantage of. That's why I didn'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 strength, it would be difficult to find a job in other teahouses. I deliberately hid my strength here and showed it when I went to other teahouses. I was afraid that you wouldn't think well of me, so … "
"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 wages there are high and there are tips. The guests are also generous. Don't you want to earn more money?"
"I was 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. And this person's identity is a bit special. If you offend him, I won't have a good time. So you have to be willing. " Manager Wu said, "I'm just saying. Just listen. If you don't want to, then pretend 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 it or didn't want to listen, Manager Wu would definitely continue.
"You studied Chinese painting, so you know a lot about Chinese art. But 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 Group is one of the best in the industries that ordinary people can come into contact with. "
When Tao Wan heard Eagle Vision, his heart shook. He was very familiar with this name, but it wasn't the kind of familiarity that Manager Wu thought it was.
"Eagle Vision's Chairman Wei is a person who likes to listen to the guqin. It's rare that you can play the guqin well, and you're 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. "It's him."
"Then what if 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 just play the guqin for him, there's actually no need for you. There are a lot of high-level 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 that his heart was relaxed and hesitant. Because he had rejected it at the beginning, if he immediately agreed now, it wouldn't be right.
After Manager Wu saw his hesitation, he continued to try to persuade him. "Actually, when you rejected those who wanted to keep you, I could understand. 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, so I hope you can consider it carefully. " “
You should have seen Boss Wei's appearance on the news. He's the object of the hearts of many rich young ladies and young masters. 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 so many people want but can't get. If you take money and date him, you'll gain a lot. "
"I don't want to make such a deal …" Tao Wan looked very 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 piss him off. "
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, I'm really worried about your temper. If you offend Boss Wei, I'll be done for with you." Manager Wu was really worried as he spoke.
"Manager Wu, don't worry. I splashed Boss Zhang with water before 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 a person 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. Got it? "
"Got it," Tao Wan replied softly.
Manager Wu received Tao Wan's reply. As soon as 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 opportunity to meet his target in this world so soon. He originally thought that for someone of Wei Shicheng's status, he would have to wait until he had a bit of fame in this world before he would 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 convince Wei Shicheng to bring him to the teahouse for tea. During these few days, Tao Wan didn't go to the teahouse to play the guqin. Manager Wu continued to pay him by the day.
Manager Wu's idea was that even if Tao Wan didn't succeed in winning Wei Shicheng's favor, 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.
