Chapter 542 The task of the elders

This was the second time the two met, and they were not very familiar with each other before, so Zhang Jin had no choice but to talk about the other person's career: "You said before that you were a screenwriter, but that's half of the entertainment industry." You’ve been around a lot, so you must have met a lot of actors and stars, right?”

Shen Siyi smiled and shook her head: "No way, you are overthinking. We screenwriters are behind the scenes. We do preparatory work before the filming starts and do not participate in the filming process. We basically have no chance to meet the actors and stars. Unless it is to temporarily change the script, or before the filming starts We sometimes meet the leading actors in script reading seminars, but basically many of the leading stars have busy schedules and won’t come specifically to attend, so we’ll see more of the supporting actors.”

Zhang Jin slapped his head and said with a smile: "I see, I always thought that being a screenwriter would get autographs from many stars. It seems I misunderstood this profession."

Shen Siyi smiled and said: "This is normal. Not everyone knows about other professions and usually has their own inherent impression. Just like when I heard that you run a game company, my first reaction was that you must play games. It’s very powerful.”

"In some ways, I'm really good at gaming." Zhang Jin thought for a while and said.

In the system's dungeon world challenge, the worst he could get was an A rating, and the rest were S ratings, which should be pretty good.

"Really, then are you better at beating the king or eating chicken?" Shen Shenyi asked.

"Uh..." Zhang Jin didn't expect that the other party would ask this. It seems that the audience of these two games is indeed very large, "No, I am very good at playing Super Mario."

"Super Mario?" Shen Siyi was also stunned, and then smiled, "You think you are the Miracle of Guan Gu!"

"Haha." Zhang Jin smiled, "Why do you know how to play king and chicken?"

"Originally I don't play games, but several of my colleagues in the writing team do, and they encouraged me to play together."

"Is it great?"

"It's not that great. It's me who supports me in the middle. If I hit the box, it's me." Shen Siyi snickered.

"I'm not much worse than you. I'm a courier boy at Shanglu Bank." Zhang Jin said.

Shen Siyi couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing when she heard this: "Okay, okay, you are very powerful. It seems that we can form a group to debut. The name of the group will be Black Wind Double Silly!"

Zhang Jin couldn't help but laugh: "As expected of a screenwriter, this name sounds earthy and trendy!"

"Really? We can play games together if we have the chance," Shen Siyi invited.

Naturally, Zhang Jin couldn't accept the girl's initiative, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I will accompany you at any time. Just send me a message on WeChat when the time comes."

"Okay." Shen Siyi nodded.

At this time, the announcement from the movie city rang, and tickets for their movie began to be checked in.

Zhang Jin and Shen Siyi took their drinks, snacks and movie tickets and walked towards the ticket gate.

Throughout the whole movie, the two of them got along quite naturally.

Firstly, the plot of the movie is indeed very funny, and secondly, Shen Shenyi used her unique screenwriting perspective to speculate on the plot, and she guessed it wrong every time. It was not a dull moment and added a lot of extra laughs.

Smiling is always the best way to resolve embarrassment!

Zhang Jin discovered that Shen Siyi was a girl who was very good at controlling situations. She was also natural and generous when dealing with strangers. She spoke in a familiar manner without making people feel bored. She had the feeling of a humorous host.

Although this kind of behavior will make people feel comfortable getting along with each other, it cannot determine the other party's true attitude.

However, Zhang Jin doesn't really intend to fall in love through this blind date, so as long as he doesn't appear awkward and boring when getting along, he doesn't really care about the other person's true attitude.

Anyway, in the final analysis, both parties are just trying to complete the tasks assigned by my mother.

Just like when two people made an appointment to play games together, it doesn't matter whether they actually play together later. What matters is that the answer is the best when the two of them get along.

Moreover, both parties use function words such as "opportunity", "at any time" and "when the time comes". Even if they don't play together in the future, they can still find excuses such as "I've been too busy recently", which is the best way to deal with each other or their elders.

The art of speaking is not to say everything to death. Without room for maneuver in an adult society, it is tantamount to seeking death.

Is it because Zhang Jin arranged to dismiss Shen Shen Yi because of his talent as a screenwriter? Anyway, he only understood this truth after being severely beaten and educated by his superiors and colleagues in the company.

The person who gossips is usually the one who takes the most blame.

After watching the movie, it was already six o'clock in the evening, and the setting sun in early September reflected the clouds on the sky, like the reddening color of maple leaves.

Walking out of the movie city, Zhang Jin looked up at the sky and said, "It's getting late, what are your plans for the evening?"

According to the procedure, after watching the movie, one should go to dinner, but his mother did not ask for this, and he did not know what Shen Siyi's attitude was. If the other party just wanted to complete the task, then he could find an excuse to run away at this time.

Shen Shenyi tilted her head and stared at the electronic advertising screen on the wall of the shopping mall across the street. She suddenly raised her finger and pointed at the advertising wall and said, "How about going there?"

Zhang Jin looked around and was a little surprised: "Secret room?"

"Yeah." Shen Siyi nodded, looking forward to it, "I've always been interested in the secret room. You're not afraid, are you?"

"The secret room is not a haunted house. I am not afraid of haunted houses. The secret room is mainly about solving puzzles, and there is nothing scary about it," Zhang Jin said.

Not to mention the staff pretending to be ghosts, even if a real ghost comes, he will still have a way to tell the other party to get out!

"It's good if you're not afraid. I heard that this secret room is the scariest and most difficult to solve the mystery. I visited it with my colleagues last time, but they didn't dare to enter it a second time. I was really disappointed." Shen Siyi put her hands on her hips and shook her head helplessly.

"If you want to go there, I will play with you in this secret room. Anyway, I have nothing to do at night." Zhang Jin said.

Since the other party has extended the invitation, of course he will not refuse it. Perhaps this is a trap set by his mother and Aunt Shen through each other. If he finds a reason to decline, he will definitely be nagged by his mother when he returns home.

Anyway, I'm here now, at least finish the work. There are only three or four hours left to finish today's task.

"Great! Let's go have dinner first so that we can fill our stomachs and have the energy to solve the puzzles in the secret room." Shen Siyi waved her little fist with joy and excitement.

Unless there are any special accidents, girls will naturally choose the place to eat. As an omnivorous foodie, Zhang Jin is not picky.

Shen Shenyi should have gone out more often than him, and knew a lot about the well-known restaurants nearby, so she took him to a restaurant that was not particularly popular.

"Compared to those restaurants with long queues, to be honest, the food here is not bad, the price is affordable, and the most important thing is that you don't have to wait too long." Shen Siyi touched her belly and said with a smile.

After dinner, Zhang Jin came to pay the bill, because Shen Siyi would be entertaining guests in the secret room later.
