692, meeting with the prospective father-in-law
The next day, Li Xiang and his group arrived at the headquarters of Southern Cinema Company in Dacheng at 9 a.m. This is a 51-story modern society building, and Southern Cinema Company occupies 10 to 20 floors.
Zhang Mingzhe enthusiastically took them to visit the company first, and then went to the exhibition hall to listen to the company introduction. The company was established for quite a long time, and it can be traced back to 50 years ago. At that time, there was only one cinema, but this cinema had an unusual status and was the first regular cinema in history in Dacheng. Later, through various mergers and reorganizations, the company's scale became larger and larger, becoming the prototype of today's Southern Cinema Company.
After Li Xiang visited, he seemed to be very worried and absent-minded.
"Are you uncomfortable?" Zhang Shasha walked up to him considerately and asked with concern.
"No, I'm just thinking about something."
Li Xiang was indeed thinking about something, thinking about the relationship between Southern Cinemas and Huang Youyi. Just now, he saw in the exhibition hall that the president of this company was named Huang Qianhe!
Isn’t Huang Qianhe the father of Youyi?! He thought it was a duplicate name at first, but then he saw Huang Qianhe’s photo and began to panic.
Li Xiang desperately recalled the photo he saw at Huang Youyi's house in his mind. It looked like Huang Qianhe, but he couldn't remember it any longer. He was ambiguous and could not meet the number.
Although he couldn't match the number, Li Xiang's feeling told him that it should be right. Huang Qianhe is the one from his girlfriend's house, and he is also his father-in-law!
Li Xiang specially wore a white striped shirt and light-colored casual pants today, which looked less casual. Now, he felt that the air conditioner in the company was not strong, and his body began to sweat, and the white shirt was a little sticky on his back.
He had never figured out why Southern Cinemas wanted him to come before, thinking that the other party might be his fan and took the opportunity to chase stars. Now it seems that he is very wrong. He cannot be his fan. If so, he should give him face last night and agree to their conditions happily.
Now, he seemed to understand a little. It is very likely that his father-in-law wanted to take this opportunity to meet him!
Li Xiang knew that Youyi's parents already knew that Li Xiang existed. He heard Huang Youyi talk about this. The cause of the incident was that he gave her parents a gift, and then he was questioned.
Thinking of Huang Youyi introducing Zhang Mingzhe to him yesterday, the relationship must be unusual, otherwise it would be impossible to know so detailed. If Huang Qianhe is the president of Southern Cinemas Company and Zhang Mingzhe as the vice president, it would be normal for Huang Youyi to understand him. Maybe Zhang Mingzhe has watched Youyi grow up since childhood.
"Please come and sit in my office. I have good tea here, maybe you will like it." After the visit, Zhang Mingzhe invited Li Xiang and his group to sit in his office.
What are you sitting there? Let’s leave quickly after the tour! Or if you have something to do, just say it quickly and don’t be mysterious, which makes Xiao Wang very nervous.
Li Xiang is now afraid that Huang Qianhe will suddenly jump out of something and give him a big "surprise".
Did Youyi know something? Li Xiang recalled Huang Youyi and seemed to be very concerned about his trip to Dacheng. She asked in detail and told him a lot of private things. It is very likely that Youyi knew that her father was going to see him today!
This kid! He didn't tell Xiao Wang in advance, and I was not prepared at all. I should teach you a good lesson when I go back!
"Does Mr. Zhang also like to drink tea? I also have this hobby..."
He Haoquan's voice sounded in his ears, and Li Xiang put away his mind and told himself not to think about how to teach Youyi a lesson. He should deal with the matter in front of him first.
In front of him, He Haoquan and Zhang Mingzhe chatted enthusiastically, while Dong Wei, Zhang Shasha and others were with him.
These people thought that today's itinerary was to convince Zhang Mingzhe, but they didn't know that the purpose had changed quietly. Now it is not a problem of scheduling, but a father-in-law who wants to meet his son-in-law! As long as he "conquers" Dad Huang, any scheduling of scheduling without scheduling of scheduling is a side-by-side thing. Everything is easy to say. If the other party is unhappy, let alone 60%, it may be 50%.
Before he knew it, the key to going south to Dacheng this time actually fell on himself! This made Li Xiang not only worry about how to win Huang Qianhe's favor, but also think carefully about how to strive for greater room for improvement in the issue of screening.
Dad Huang and Miss Huang are so direct. They didn't ask Xiao Wang for their opinions in advance. What if Xiao Wang is not that smart and doesn't understand the key point, what should I do if I see Huang Qianhe saying something that shouldn't have been said later and messed up the matter.
In front of him, He Haoquan, Dong Wei and others were discussing movies with Zhang Mingzhe, but they didn't know that Zhang Mingzhe no longer had the right to decide, and the right to decide was in the hands of Huang Qianhe.
Li Xiang thought to himself that it was just a warm-up now, and going to the office later was to talk about the main business. He became nervous, and Huang Qianhe might be sitting in the office! He was about to meet Youyi's father, and he didn't know what to say, and he didn't know his hobbies in advance. Youyi is so stupid. At least he will introduce it. Last night, he just said that Zhang Mingzhe was going.
Or, Youyi didn't know that her father would come to see her? Li Xiang was a little suspicious.
"Please come in~~" Zhang Mingzhe's secretary was waiting in front of the office early. Zhang Mingzhe invited everyone to come in and sit down. Li Xiang took a deep breath and looked at the desk at the first glance. There was no one! Then he quickly scanned around, and there was no one!
He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then his heart rose again, because he didn't know when Huang Qianhe would suddenly appear in front of him! This unknown uncertainty made him feel particularly uncomfortable.
"What's wrong with you? He looks restless."
The fragrant wind blew around her, and the beautiful Zhang Shasha leaned into Li Xiang's ear and asked quietly. From yesterday to now, her focus has always been Li Xiang, and she has never changed. She found that Li Xiang was fine when she went to the Southern Cinema Company, and she did not start to get distracted until she visited the exhibition hall.
Zhang Shasha was quite beautiful and put on exquisite makeup. When she was close to Li Xiang's words, her plump breasts leaned gently on his arms, and she could feel the amazing elasticity.
"I worry about the movie." Li Xiang said, staying away from her calmly. What occasion is this? Do you want him to die???
Li Xiang even felt Zhang Mingzhe's eyes falling on him, thinking that he might know his relationship with Youyi. Now that he saw that he was like this with other women in front of him, his impression immediately became bad. I will report it to Huang Qianhe later...
Li Xiang didn't dare to think further, and quickly moved away from Zhang Shasha. His actions could not escape Zhang Shasha's eyes. The woman immediately showed a little coquettishness and a little aggrievance, flashed by and quickly returned to normal.
"Li Xiang, can you come out with me?" Zhang Mingzhe suddenly asked.
What are you doing?! Li Xiang is very sensitive now and subconsciously feels that it is not a good thing. However, he cannot refuse such a request, and it is difficult to refuse. There is no reason to refuse. He is not going to eat him, but just let him come out. If he is a lady, he can use the advantage of his gender to smile and refuse.
"Okay." Li Xiang followed Zhang Mingzhe out of the office with He Haoquan and others in a surprised gaze.
Zhang Mingzhe asked his secretary to take care of the place, then took Li Xiang out of the door, and casually closed the office door, looked at Li Xiang, and quickly looked at him and said, "Our president wants to see you now, can we?"
Li Xiang thought to himself, it turns out that the president is Huang Qianhe?
Can he say that it is not possible now? It is definitely not possible! If President Huang rejects this, his relationship with Huang Youyi may encounter resistance. At that time, Huang’s father will definitely say to Huang Youyi like this: Look at the person you like, you don’t have the courage and don’t even dare to see me. How can such a man protect you in the future? He will definitely not be able to protect him, so don’t be with him, Dad will find you another good man.
When Li Xiang was thinking about it, Zhang Mingzhe was also confused. He didn't understand what was going on. From last night to now, he still didn't figure it out, but he already understood one thing, that is, all this has something to do with Li Xiang in front of him.
As for Li Xiang, he certainly knew him, but he couldn't figure out what his relationship with Huang Qianhe had. Last night, he had already rejected He Haoquan's request, but he received a call from Huang Qianhe, asking him not to be busy agreeing or rejecting it first.
Zhang Mingzhe didn’t know what this sentence meant. Is it because he didn’t give the 60% screening ratio, or is there still room for improvement?
Huang Qianhe did not say it clearly on the phone, but only asked him to invite He Haoquan and his group to the company. He wanted to meet them, and specifically mentioned that he must invite Li Xiang to come.
He was confused by He Haoquan and others today. In fact, he was also confused. It was not until he just received a message from Mr. Huang and asked him to take Li Xiang to his office that he knew that the final problem was on Li Xiang.
"Okay, you lead the way." Li Xiang replied as if readily.
Zhang Mingzhe looked at him deeply, nodded, and took the lead in walking towards Huang Qianhe's president's office.
Li Xiang didn't even ask about the reason, nor even showed some curiosity. It seemed that there were things he didn't know and the other party knew it well.
The situation is clearer now. Both Huang Qianhe and Li Xiang know, but only Zhang Mingzhe doesn't know, then he wondered again. Since both of them knew, why not contact him directly instead of passing by?
Zhang Mingzhe took Li Xiang to Huang Qianhe's office and knocked on the empty door, and a thick male voice came from inside.
"Please come in."
Zhang Mingzhe pushed the door open and said to the person inside, "Mr. Huang, Li Xiang is here", and then invited Li Xiang to go in.
Li Xiang took a deep breath and stepped into this office. The first feeling was that the space was so big, the second feeling was that Te Miao was so nervous, and the third feeling was that the middle-aged handsome guy in front of him was definitely Youyi's father.
When looking at the photos, there will be some deviations and some details cannot be found, but when you see a real person, you can find that the middle-aged handsome guy in front of you looks a bit similar to Huang Youyi, especially his eyes, which are exactly the same. Even if he is not Huang Youyi's father, he is definitely a close relative.
"I'll talk to Li Xiang. Lao Zhang, please go to entertain other guests first." Huang Qianhe said to Zhang Mingzhe. After seeing him leave the office, he came out of his desk and came to the sofa area to sit down.
"You should sit down, do you want to smoke?"
Li Xiang sat down, his heart thumped, it would be great if he didn't know that this was Youyi's father, so he would never be nervous.
Huang Qianhe in front of him looked younger than Zhang Mingzhe, about 45 years old, about 180cm in size, wearing a sky blue long-sleeved shirt, with a bulging chest and no big belly, and a good figure in the shirt, so he should stick to fitness for a long time. He had short hair, black and shiny, carefully cared, and combed neatly. Under his hair was a national face, with a wide forehead and full of energy, a pair of narrow eyes, deep and charming, and a straight nose bridge. These eyes and nose bridge were inherited to Huang Youyi. When he spoke, he looked directly at Li Xiang, bright and energetic, as if he wanted to see through him. His voice was very mellow, and his Mandarin was extremely standard, like an announcer.
"No, I don't smoke." Li Xiang said, feeling very special... It seems... he is a thief. He stole their baby while no one was at home, but was caught afterwards. It was so embarrassing.
"Oh, yes, you really can't smoke when singing, and I don't smoke either." Huang Qianhe said.
The handsome middle-aged man said he smoked, but he didn't take out the cigarette at all, and he didn't do anything to say that he wanted to take the cigarette. He didn't even see any cigarettes, there was no ashtray in the office, nor did he smell any cigarettes, and the doors and windows were closed.
Li Xiang suspected that he had no cigarettes at all, and just was just the first step to test him.
"Thank you for your gift, my wife and I like it very much." Huang Qianhe said.
Li Xiang was stunned for a moment. Huang Qianhe did not directly say "You know me", "I am Youyi's father", "Are you and my daughter talking about friends?", but directly said that we like your gift very much, which is equivalent to directly omitting all the beginnings. Just like a conversation between friends, you sent a gift here, we liked it very much, thank you very much, and at the same time, it also stated that I know who you are and what relationship you have with my daughter. We will go straight to the point and don't go around.
Li Xiang thought about it for a while, and said without much hesitation, "That's good, it's mainly my mother's choice."
His special name was chosen by his mother, which meant to tell Huang Qianhe that my parents knew about his relationship with your daughter. I was serious, not just having fun. My parents were also serious. Look, I picked gifts for you very carefully.
"Youyi also came up with an idea." Li Xiang added. The potential meaning of this sentence is that my parents knew Youyi, and even met her, and were very satisfied with her, otherwise they would not have come to pick up the gifts in person.
Li Xiang believed that Huang Qianhe could understand these potential meanings. Sure enough, Huang Qianhe nodded and said, "I'm sorry, thank you parents."
At this time, Li Xiang's cell phone vibrated, but because he was talking to Huang Qianhe, he didn't take it out and was about to leave the office before going back.
——
Huang Youyi called Li Xiang last night to understand the results of the discussion with Zhang Mingzhe. The result was neither good nor bad. On the phone, Li Xiang said that he was satisfied and could not ask for more. Then he told her another news, and Zhang Mingzhe invited them to visit the company tomorrow morning.
When visiting the company, Huang Youyi seemed very confused. Based on her understanding of Uncle Zhang, the invitation was a bit strange.
This morning, she ran outside as she was used to, and after she came back, she dressed up carefully in the room to welcome Li Xiang's arrival. Li Xiang said on the phone that she would return to Yuezhou from Dacheng this afternoon and had already made an appointment with her.
"I'm dressed so beautifully. Have you had a date today?" Huang's mother looked at her one after another and couldn't help asking.
Huang Youyi smiled and shook her head: "I won't tell you."
Seeing that her father had never come out, she asked curiously: "Where is Dad?"
Huang's mother also smiled and shook her head, saying, "I won't tell you."
“…”
If it were the usual, Huang Youyi would immediately joke with her mother, but today the situation was a bit special, and she felt a little bad, so she pestered her and asked, and finally learned that her father had gone to the company!
"Which company?" Huang Youyi asked anxiously.
"Of the city."
Huang Youyi's heart was beating wildly and asked again: "Will he go to the company if he doesn't eat?"
"He said something urgent, go out to eat, what's wrong?" Huang's mother found that her daughter's expression was a little wrong.
"Nothing, did your dad say anything about going to the company?"
"Nothing said."
Huang Youyi stopped eating immediately and pushed away the chair and hurriedly left.
"Youyi, what are you doing? You haven't finished breakfast yet."
"I won't eat, I'll leave in urgent need."
"where you go?"
"Go to Dacheng."
