Chapter 99 The scene of hugging from left to right
On Christmas Eve, many businesses have created a Christmas atmosphere. Some have Christmas trees, Santa Claus, deer carts, have service staff wear Santa hats, etc. They also put portraits of Santa Claus and Christmas trees on the glass doors and windows.
, put on a bell lock or something.
Walking on the street, it is easy to bump into pairs of young men and women, some walking implicitly together, some holding hands, and some embracing each other. No matter what the situation is, basically they all have smiles on their faces.
Looking at these scenes, Li Yan couldn't help but shake his head in amusement. It turns out that among young people, Christmas is also an excuse for dating and a fashion for dating. They are the main consumers of movies! No wonder the domestic movie market has developed as fast as North America in recent years.
The same. The Lunar New Year period from Christmas to New Year's Day is the period with the highest box office. In the cold weather, what should a dating couple do besides eating? It's not subtle enough to book a room too early. Of course, it's to watch a movie! What you watch is no longer a movie, it's
That atmosphere.
Considering that there was an entertainment program and he didn't know how long the meal would take, Li Yan agreed on an earlier time and asked them to come and gather at seven o'clock. Basically, they would come over after getting off work and sorting out a little bit.
He arrived first, selected a seat, and waited for their arrival. They were all girls. When it came to work, they would be punctual, but when they went out to eat like this, they should have time to wait, right?
Li Yan was not in a hurry and waited patiently.
At seventy in the evening, Wen Qianyi had already arrived. She was still a queen with a strong aura. When she appeared at the door of the hot pot restaurant, she had attracted a lot of people's attention. Some male waiters rushed to greet her.
Wen Qianyi glanced around with a smile, saw Li Yan, and walked towards him.
"So? I thought you were going to be late." Li Yan smiled.
Shocked, "You, Mr. Li, are treating me, how dare I? If I hadn't been unable to find a parking space, I would have appeared on time." Wen Qianyi said to him with a smile. "Where is your Yingying?"
Li Yan sweated violently and felt embarrassed: "Don't be confused, what do you call my Ying? Ying. Huang Ying is thin-skinned, don't scare her away, she respects you very much."
"Oh! She hasn't come yet, I made a joke, and you started to protect her?" Wen Qianyi looked at him with a half-smile. "Did I accidentally get it right?"
Li Yan rolled his eyes at her: "Let's see what we eat first. I'll pay for it today, so don't be polite to me!"
"Tch! How much can you eat if you eat hot pot until you die? You stingy guy, you're welcome, why don't you treat me to a French dinner?" Wen Qianyi took off her coat and put it behind the chair. She looked charming in every gesture without the cover of her coat.
The close-fitting sweater also reveals your perfect figure.
Li Yan felt that someone was watching him and glanced at the door. Sure enough, it was Haifu who had arrived. She did not change her clothes and deliberately did not make any changes, including wearing big, old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses. After entering, she
I just found a seat and sat down casually.
"What are you looking at? Huang Ying is here?" Wen Qianyi is also a smart person. He noticed it as soon as his eyes wandered and followed her gaze.
"It seems to be Master Jiejie." Li Yan said in a low voice.
Wen Qianyi glared at him and said softly: "Don't be like this!"
She is capable, charming, and her figure and appearance are comparable to Zhang Yurong. She is regarded as the two most beautiful women in heaven by her colleagues in the company. Naturally, she has absolute self-confidence. Moreover, she was the business director from the beginning, and now she is the business director, and she has never been criticized by her.
Of course, "bullying and scolding" will not have much prejudice against Haifu. We were not familiar with her before, but now we are both senior executives of the company, and we have known each other personally. We also know more about Haifu's situation. Of course, no other employees will treat her.
That kind of "teacher" feeling.
Li Yan asked deliberately: "It's time to get off work now. Should you and I go over and say hello? If I go, will she think I'm trying to curry favor with her?"
Wen Qianyi couldn't help but laugh: "You! You think too much. If you act like this, will she think you are fawning over me when she sees me with you?"
"That's different, we are old friends." Looking at her beautiful eyes, Li Yan changed his words with a smile: "We are good friends who have known each other for a long time, we are called old friends for short. Mr. Hai and you are different."
To others, this means that Hefu is not an "old acquaintance and good friend", but in fact he is just "different from you". In fact, he is also an "old acquaintance and good friend" and he is genuine and has a relationship with "old friends".
lover"
"More! Forget it, I'll go say hello to her." Wen Qianyi said, stood up, and walked elegantly towards Haifu.
"Mr. Hai, what a coincidence."
"Director Wen? You're here to eat too." Seeing Wen Qianyi coming over, Hai Fu appropriately showed embarrassment and adjusted her glasses.
Wen Qianyi smiled and sat down opposite her, "I'm with a few of my former colleagues, eh! Over there. Li Yan, whom you know. There's another girl who hasn't arrived yet."
"Oh." Hai Futou said.
"What about you? Waiting for a friend?"
"Hmm." Hai Fu nodded, then shook her head. Seeing that Wen Qianyi hadn't left, she smiled bitterly: "Okay, I'm not afraid of making you laugh. I originally wanted to find a few colleagues to have a dinner together, but they all made appointments.
Boyfriend, and based on my image in their minds, I guess they were also trepidatious about eating together. I didn’t want to go back by myself so early, so I wanted to find a restaurant to eat. I saw that they were all in pairs along the way, and finally I saw this
Hot pot restaurant, I thought that couples usually don't come here, but I didn't expect to see you saying "It's okay. You don't need to worry about me, I will take care of it soon."
Wen Qianyi was sweating. She didn't expect Haifu to be so miserable. Originally, she just came to say hello, but now she saw that she was not pretending. She told the truth. We are both colleagues and neighbors who live together. Of course, it is not easy to ignore it at this time.
She. Since she was alone, and she, Li Yan, and Huang Ying anyway, it didn't matter if there was one more.
"Sister Haifu, I'm not polite to you after get off work. It's wasteful and boring for you to eat alone. Why don't you come with us? There aren't many of us. We are all colleagues in the company. Let's go!"
Faced with Wen Qianyi's enthusiastic invitation, Haifu "reluctantly said: "Okay, then I'll treat you all! I originally wanted to treat people to dinner."
Wen Qianyi couldn't help but smile: "Okay, Sister Haifu, you don't have to be so reserved. Isn't there a man here? Do you still want to invite me? I guess he will be embarrassed, right?"
Of course Li Yan is embarrassed to eat with a girl. Whether the girl pays the bill or makes the meal, he will feel embarrassed.
When he saw Wen Qianyi inviting Haifu to come with him, he looked at Huang Ying and Li Jie from the door. He quickly reminded himself that it was time to be careful about his words and actions!
The five people came together and introduced each other several times. Wen Qianyi introduced Haifu to Huang Ying and Li Jie, and Chu Erhui introduced Huang Ying and Li Jie to them.
Although everyone exchanged pleasantries, the atmosphere was very reserved. Because Haifu had such a prestigious reputation in the company, and even had a "bad reputation", even if Huang Ying resigned, she was always afraid of her. And she was shy to begin with.
People who are not good at communication have an attitude of admiration for Wen Qianyi and talk less at the moment; while Haifu must wear the mask of the company and not be too enthusiastic to scare them; not to mention Li Jie, who is in front of strangers.
In front of her, she always maintains a cool look, and it's already good that she doesn't have her hair spread out in front to partially cover her face.
As a result, the responsibility of activating the atmosphere falls on Li Yan and Wen Qianyi. This is Li Yan's situation, but he must remind himself to be careful in his words and deeds and not to reveal the secret. Wen Qianyi originally wanted to
I wanted to have a meal with him alone, but I didn't expect it to end up like this.
However, eating hot pot is participatory. You have to do it by yourself, and Li Yan is the only man at the table. They can't wait for Li Yan to help. From the dishes to the cooking, eating, slowly, everyone
There is also a lot less restraint. Although Wen Qianyi and Li Yan still talk more, they are gradually getting involved.
The girls didn't eat much. Except for Li Yan who ate more, Li Jie, who often practiced a lot, ate more. After more than an hour, everyone was done with it and they became more familiar with each other.
After paying the bill, Li Yan took out a stack of things and put them on the table: "Ladies and gentlemen, are there any other programs coming soon? Do you want to go watch a movie together?"
Wen Qianyi looked at him suspiciously: "When did you buy the movie tickets?" He had already agreed with her and Huang Ying, and it wouldn't be surprising if they bought the tickets in advance, but it looked like there were tickets for five people.
Bought them all. Did he already know that he would meet so many people?
Huang Ying and Li Jie were speechless. They knew that there was Wen Qianyi, that is, there were four of them, but unexpectedly there was one more Haifu.
Haifu was speechless. She knew there was Huang Ying and Wen Qianyi, but she didn't know there was another Li Jie.
Li Yan smiled calmly and spread out the tickets: "Am I not the general manager of the film company now? Of course I have to understand the market conditions. Now is the best Lunar New Year period in the box office market. How can I not understand it? I want to
I want to know whether the attendance will be full and whether there is a scalper market. So I have five tickets for my experiment."
Wen Qianyi was speechless, then shook her head in disdain: "You are the manager of a film company, and you went to scalper tickets! If reporters expose it, you will become famous!"
"It doesn't matter. Now that I'm famous, won't it make our company more famous? Hehe, kill two birds with one stone!" Li Yan said with a smile.
"It's better not to do it. It's illegal. If you get caught, you'll be in trouble." They all tried to persuade them. Li Yan was just going to watch a movie with them, so he bought an extra ticket to avoid suspicion.
.So after listening to the advice, I reluctantly said: "Well, let's give it away! Do you have any friends who like to watch movies?"
Seeing Li Yan gesticulating with the tickets, everyone shook their heads.
Li Yan originally thought it didn't matter, just waste five cards, but seeing how regretful they didn't want to waste them, he had to call someone.
He called Duan Haibo and told them how many tickets there were. He invited them to watch the movie and asked him to bring his wife, sister-in-law and the others to the theater to meet him.
After getting the extra tickets, there was one more ticket left, and Li Yan was also unnamed. Although there was still time for the movie to start, they all drove and decided to go to the cinema first in order to find a parking space.
Li Yan, Hai Fu, and Wen Qianyi all drove their cars after work. Huang Ying came here in Li Jie's car. Now they are leaving. There are no special arrangements. They all go to the cinema one after another as they came.
Finally, we parked our cars separately. Everyone bought snacks and other things. Duan Haibo, Lu Jiajing, Han Jinlong and Lu Lijun also came together. On such a day, they also wanted to watch a movie for entertainment. They just considered that it might be possible on the weekend.
Tickets won’t be easy to buy. I didn’t expect Li Yan to give away tickets.
Others were dating a man and a woman, but Li Yan would not go on a date. If he was dating, it would be four beauties with different looks and temperaments, which made Duan Haibo and the four of them in awe.
Others are pretending to be public and benefiting privately. Li Yan is "pretending to be private and benefiting the public" by taking advantage of the opportunity of watching movies. He studies movie-related issues. For example, terminal theaters arrange movie schedules, what kind of movies will be arranged in the lobby, and what kind of arrangements are made in the hall.
What kind of shows are more frequent and what kind of shows are less frequent? When entering, you should also pay attention to the attendance rate, viewing effect, etc.
In addition to these external factors, there are also movies that cannot be watched for entertainment and to pass the time like before. For example, the most popular Lunar New Year movie he chose is also a movie directed by Feng Wang, a traditional seed player. "Feng Wangzhong Ge You" is a Feng-style Lunar New Year film.
.Why does it always sell well every time? As for the protagonist, it is simply a Feng-style comedy of "iron Ge You, flowing beauty". The heroine can be a Taiwanese actress or a Hong Kong actress, and the male protagonist must be Ge You from mainland China.
Because when they were seated, they were with Duan Haibo and the others. Naturally, they were sitting next to each other as a couple. As for the five of them, no matter how they sat, they were watched by the two pairs. Perhaps to avoid suspicion, Wen Qianyi, who was walking in front,
.Sit down directly on the far right, and there is still an empty seat left after passing by. Huang Ying, who is walking behind, takes advantage of the situation and sits next to Lu Lijun, which is the leftmost seat among them. There are three of them left, and Li
Yan was not polite and sat down in the middle, while Hai Fu sat on his right, next to Wen Qianyi. Li Jie sat on his left, next to Huang Ying.
This seemed to be an unintentional arrangement for them. From Wen Qianyi's point of view, it was not good for her and Li Yan to sit together. Huang Ying was not with him now, so that was just right. The cool Li Jie and the majestic Haifu were sitting together
He would also be under a lot of pressure on both sides of Li Yan, right? It would be great if Huang Ying could sit next to Li Yan, but with so many people now, she must be embarrassed. Being separated from Li Jie made her feel more natural.
