"Director Guo, this is an advertisement for our company in advance." Cao Shujie said softly.

"The money I spent on commercials was not wasted."

Wang Zhifeng didn't understand what was going on, but Lian Qijian knew it. Seeing that Cao Shujie didn't say much, he also kept silent.

He is not stupid, and he also knows that the fewer people who know about some things, the better.

There was nothing else going on that day. Lian Qijian went home from get off work at 1 o'clock.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw my parents were there, and they were discussing something.

Seeing him come in, his mother Dang Wanli came over with a smile, looked up and down, then left and right: "Jianjian, you are back."

"How about being outside for the past two days?"

During the two days when her son was out, Dang Wanli had been thinking about him very much.

The main reason is that this is the first time that her son has gone out alone to deal with work, and it is also dealing with the provincial TV station. But she knows how many ways there are, and she is afraid that her son will not do well.

Lian Xuezhu patted the empty seat next to him and asked his son to sit down.

"Jianjian, tell me about your business trip these two days and let me know what you think."

"Dad, Mom, let me tell you, I have met a star, a real big star." Lian Qijian looked surprised.

While talking, Lian Qijian took out his mobile phone: "Hey, Dad, Mom, let me show you the photos of me and them."

Unlocking his phone, Lian Qijian looked through the photo album and found a photo, pointing to a group photo of him and Wang Jie, Wang Peigang, Meng Fei, Jiang Changjian, Tao Jingjing, Wei Kun and others for his parents to see.

Not to mention, when Dang Wanli saw these celebrities and hosts, she acted startled and looked particularly surprised.

"Jianjian, that's great. Now you're taking photos with celebrities. Are you going to show this on TV?" Dang Wanli suddenly became interested.

Thinking about watching her son on TV, she suddenly felt that the troublesome things her husband had just mentioned were no longer so worrying.

Dang Wanli asked her son again: "Did you not make a fool of yourself when you held the press conference?"

Lian Qijian shook his head: "No, Mom, they all have a fixed pattern. When I stop there, I basically follow the script. The few questions the reporter asked are not deliberately to make things difficult for others."

"In addition, our company spent more than 200 million yuan on the title advertisement on "The Strongest Brain", and the external quotation was 300 million yuan. This is to give Jiangsu Province TV station a face. At this time, no one is willing to go against the provincial TV station."

"That seems to be the truth." Dang Wanli nodded.

Looking at her son Lian Qijian again, she suddenly became a little dazed.

The little guy who used to rely on her has really grown up now. Although he still seems very immature when dealing with things, he can already take charge of his own affairs.

Lian Xuezhu looked at his son's changes and was very pleased: "Son, you have grown up."

"Hey, Dad, I'm already 24." Lian Qijian said.

"That's so fast!" Lian Xuezhu nodded. Unknowingly, his son was no longer the little bastard who fought for so-called feelings.

"You two, let's chat for now while I go cook." Dang Wanli said.

After saying that, she went to the kitchen to cook.

Lian Qijian still wanted to help, but his mother kicked him out of the kitchen.

"Dad, my mother said two days ago that something happened at your factory. How was it? Is it resolved?" Lian Qijian sat next to his father. He saw an orange on the table, took one and finished peeling it.

Handed half to his father.

I tore off a piece and put it in my mouth and ate it slowly. It was a bit sour and sweet, quite watery, and the taste was really good.

Lian Xuezhu also ate two slices. When talking about the factory, Lian Xuezhu smiled and nodded: "It's okay. It's not a difficult problem. It has been solved."

"So fast, you are worthy of being my dad." Lian Qijian sincerely praised his father.

Lian Xuezhu felt a little embarrassed when his son praised him: "Although I have stepped down, my previous relationship is still there. It's just a phone call. Besides, it's a matter between a few of us. We all know it in our hearts."

If the factory doesn't transform, it will go bankrupt sooner or later."

After hearing what his father said was so serious, Lian Qijian asked him: "It's so risky."

"Otherwise, what do you think? In the past few years, the efficiency of the factory has been poor, and the profit has been getting worse year by year. If it hadn't been for planting cotton on a parcel of land in Changji, Xinjiang in the past two years, it has fundamentally reduced part of the cost.

We may not be able to hold on any longer." Lian Xuezhu was filled with emotion when talking about this incident.

The matter of contracting land to grow cotton was first brought up by his nephew Cao Zhen, and he was also the first to go there to help him solve this problem.

It's just that the guy worked for more than a year, found a wife, and ran away early.

No one expected that the Xinjiang Restaurant he opened in the city would be so successful.

Sometimes Lian Xuezhu thinks that the profits of his nephew's restaurant are higher than the profits of his own factory.

But there is nothing we can do about it, especially in recent years, the manufacturing industry has become increasingly difficult to do.

Even if he had a spider web of connections in Pingyuan County, it would be useless.

Only he knew in his heart that when the products of their factory left this small place and entered a larger market, the network of relationships he had built over the years would be of no use at all.

Outside, there are too many counties or cities larger than Pingyuan County.

There are countless places richer than them.

With regard to their situation, they are often like a frog in the well, causing him to lose himself.

In comparison, Xuemeng Food Factory is several times better than them in the market.

"Jianjian, dad has only one request for you: work hard at Xuemeng Food Factory and try to make a difference, but don't think about coming back to take over." This is what Lian Xuezhu told his son.

After hearing this, Lian Qijian froze there, suddenly at a loss.

His father's tone of voice was completely different from before.

He still remembers that his father once said that he should train at Xuemeng Food Factory for a few years before coming back to take over!

Have you changed your mind now?

Is there a younger brother or sister outside?

This had to make Lian Qijian suspect that something had happened to his father.

"Dad, are you okay?" Lian Qijian asked him again.

Lian Xuezhu shook his head and said: "I used to be a frog in the well. I thought I could run the factory well with the connections I had accumulated over the years. But in fact, once we leave Pingyuan County, what does our factory mean?"

Lian Qijian looked in a daze, so that was it.

At this moment, Lian Qijian suddenly discovered the scene of his father's heroic decline.

He always thought that his father was his supporter. At this time, Lian Qijian suddenly felt that his father was really old.

For a moment, Lian Qijian didn't know what to say.

Mother Dang Wanli made dinner and asked him to serve it.

Lian Qijian hurried into the kitchen, and after a while, mother and son came out carrying several plates.

"Jianjian, go and find the fruit wine that your brother Jie brought over. Let's drink some as a family." Lian Xuezhu said.

"Okay!" Lian Qijian turned around and went to find a drink.

Dang Wanli noticed that her husband looked a little strange and asked him what happened.

But Lian Xuezhu didn't say a single word.

He just said that he was happy to see his son grow up and be able to take on things.

"Okay, I'll have a drink with you today." Dang Wanli said.

Only she understands the pain in his wife's heart.

Let’s go and have some cool tea!

When the tree falls, the hozens scatter!

Describe reality vividly!

…

In the evening, Cao Shujie had dinner with his family and answered two phone calls.

One was called by Abdullah from Xinjiang.

The other one was Wang Kai, deputy director of Jiangsu Provincial Television Station, who called him.

These two phone calls surprised Cao Shujie.

Wang Kai told Cao Shujie that "The Strongest Brain" will be released soon.

Abdullah called Cao Shujie to ask him if he would still accept the apples.

Abdulla told Cao Shujie that the large apple growers they visited last time were now willing to sell apples to Xuemeng Food Factory at a low price.

This made Cao Shujie think that he had heard wrongly.

But in fact this is really the case.

Abdul used a few of them as middlemen and introduced many large apple growers to Cao Shujie. However, those people thought the price was too cheap and wanted to raise the price, so no cooperation was reached in the end.

They want to save the apples and sell them at a higher price. They always feel that the price of apples will definitely rise as the Spring Festival approaches.
