Chapter 186 The First Business
"Sun Tao's vision is fine, but you really can't rely on him when it comes to specific matters. After all, he has experienced too few things before he is twenty... Let's go and find a hotel to stay for one night... ”
Qin Boya pulled Wu Xiaoying onto the bus, "He thinks going out to do things is just like playing games. Haha, he thinks the people we are looking for are NPCs. As long as you go there, you will definitely find them... You know NPCs." Is it? Sun Tao often says this, that is, people in the game stay in a fixed place every day..."
Wu Xiaoying gradually heard a kind of showing off without noticing it at first. Qin Boya was showing off her understanding of Sun Tao.
……
It takes more than two hours by bus from Wu'an to the provincial capital. Changying's family members also studied the specific route before setting off. Wu Xiaoying is familiar with Jichun School Road, and Qin Boya is a thick-skinned veteran who is familiar with it.
Sun Tao felt that two days would be enough to meet a few retired old comrades. It was even possible to go there and come back the same day. As a result, the trip lasted four days.
January 7, 2003, Tuesday, light snow, temperature -25~-7.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, two beauties wearing black and white down jackets came to Hongqi Road while riding a donkey backwards.
……
Qin Boya, "Oh my god, I'm exhausted. Once I hand over these licensing agreements to him, we'll go back to rest after lunch..."
Wu Xiaoying hesitated for a moment but expected that Sun Tao would not object, "Well, I listen to you. Although I don't do much work, I just take the bus and ask questions on the way to talk to people every day. I am tired."
"That's right! Otherwise why would everyone want to have an establishment? It's just for stability."
"Hey! Sister Qin, this house is being renovated."
"Well, I asked them when they came to visit last week. Unfortunately, it's not a hotel but a beauty salon. I don't know if it's serious or not."
"...Ah... The rolling shutters are all pressed, so the computer must be fine... Huh? Why are the rolling shutters still down in broad daylight... Sister Qin, look at Sun Tao's bicycle!"
< br>
A slight smile appeared on Qin Boya's lips, "Didn't you give him a call?"
"Oh, when I went out, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to catch the 8:20 train, so I told him to come back after 12 o'clock."
Qin Boya hesitated for a moment, "The car is still here and it's probably going to 301. Xiaoying, go to Xiaowei Hotel to book a table first. If there is no place to go there later, I'll wait for them here."
Wu Xiaoying did not doubt his presence, handed the shoulder bag containing the agreement to Qin Boya and turned away.
When Wu Xiaoying walked away, Qin Boya clicked her feet against the rolling shutter door, "Open the door, I know you are inside!"
……
After a while, the rolling shutter was pulled up, and Sun Tao and Li Xiaojun appeared neatly dressed.
Sun Tao, "What a coincidence. The newly installed rolling shutter door, let's try to see if it works."
Li Xiaojun looked around and found that Qin Boya was the only one. He muttered, "Didn't you say you would come back at noon? Why did you come back so early?"
Qin Boya said with a smile: "Don't look at it. I sent Xiao Wu to book a table at the hotel. Four days is not enough for you."
Sun Tao said helplessly, "Sister Qin, you really misunderstood. We really haven't been idle these days."
Sun Tao turned around and put on his military coat, "Let's go. I'll tell you in detail during dinner later. Why did you suddenly remember the authorized agent? Where did you hear about it..."
——
Xiaowei Hotel is a small restaurant with a front store and a kitchen in the back. The business area is about the same as Qingzhou Culture. The rectangular store has six tables in two rows and three columns. The innermost part is the bar, and the alcoves behind the bar are all For tobacco and wine, there is a staircase on the left side of the bar, and there is a large private room on the second floor. There is a curtain on the right side of the bar and behind it is the kitchen.
In fact, there is no need to make a reservation here.
When Sun Tao and the other three strolled over, they saw Wu Xiaoying chatting with the proprietress sitting at the bar.
There is only one customer in the store, Wu Xiaoying.
Sun Tao very much suspected that the owner of Xiaowei Restaurant was imitating "Northeast Family". This 2001 sitcom was also very popular at the time. Although Gong Hanlin and his wife joined the show, Sun Tao's favorite was Niu Xiaowei's daughter-in-law Zhu Tingting.
Zhu Tingting often wears a white camisole in the drama...
It's a pity that the proprietress of the copycat version of Xiaowei Hotel is far from the original version.
The landlady has a round face and a big mouth, and she laughs loudly. She doesn’t have the feeling of hiding something hidden in something like in the TV series. Of course, as a landlady, she is quite approachable and safe.
"Let me tell you secretly, your boss is my favorite. When I watched "Wu'an Talent Show", I just stared at his camera. I didn't even watch the planning talent show after that... Oops, hahaha, Your boss is here.”
It was said to be secretive, but the boss lady’s loud voice and the cook must have heard it clearly.
Sun Tao was very suspicious that the food he would eat soon would be "added".
"Xiao Wu, what did you order?" Sun Tao asked.
Sun Taoxin said, "If you don't think so, I'll just say it's a little urgent and I can't make it in time. I'll go do something first."
Wu Xiaoying said excitedly: "I ordered, I ordered a big pot of butchered vegetables. The boss lady said that there are fresh pork and blood sausage today, and the pork blood sausage and pickled cabbage vermicelli are stewed together!"
The landlady burst into laughter, "We are all acquaintances. I'll feed you the pork and blood sausage. Just two more side dishes. Ordering too much will definitely be a waste."
Sun Tao had no choice but to leave. "Okay, let's have another plate of skin jelly and a plate of braised white meat. The garlic sauce will be mashed."
"Hahaha, no problem, needless to say, what are the staple foods? Steamed buns, steamed buns and rice. Oh, by the way, I also steamed a pot of sugar triangles today and put them all in brown sugar."
"Let's get a drawer of sugar triangles." Sun Tao chose brown sugar without hesitation when he heard that there was one.
Li Xiaojun glanced at him with a smile, and Qin Boya also reacted. It seemed like it was a coincidence just now.
The hotel has a thick cotton curtain, the room is heated, and the lights are on. The three of them sat down and took off their coats, and the four of them chatted about the past few days. Of the two people on the business trip, Qin Boya is naturally the main one, and Wu Xiaoying is the atmosphere team. When Qin Boya said how difficult it was, she nodded and sighed...
The proprietress lay on the counter and looked at them blankly, and there was a faint sound of clanging in the back kitchen.
"...When you make plans in the future, you should ask more acquaintances and read less forums. I think the people on the forums are all talking nonsense. After all, acquaintances have a reputation to follow. Who do you know on the Internet? Who do you know? You? Even if they know, they may not be willing to tell you, and even if they are willing to tell you, they may not be too lazy to type so many words.”
Sun Tao smiled awkwardly. As a man of two generations, what he knew was only second-hand and third-hand consultation. The general development direction was definitely good, but the details were definitely different.
Just like when looking for someone, in the last life you just asked your friends to send you their location. Now, just ask, and it will take you a long time to find someone in the neighborhood.
"Well, I really didn't think twice this time. Fortunately, Manager Qin thought of holding it on behalf of others, otherwise it would have been troublesome. Either we didn't have enough money and couldn't get the copyright, or we bought low and sold high and offended a lot of people."< br>
Li Xiaojun nodded and said with a smile: "Sister Qin, I didn't expect you to know anything about intellectual property rights holdings? Where did you hear this?"
Qin Boya smiled proudly, "Let's learn, just ask. In the past, I was just messing around in the workplace, but now that I have no way out, I have to give full play to my abilities. When I said I wanted to be an agent, I contacted many friends. .”
She quietly stepped on Sun Tao's feet, "In order to understand this, I invited many people to dinner. After that, I carefully sorted out the information they told me, and then found two books to read... Intellectual Property Agency I’ve forgotten where I heard it. When we first talked about it, I didn’t even think of it. When I got there and wanted to talk to someone, the result suddenly came out..."
< br>
As Qin Boya was talking, the landlady brought the jelly, boiled white meat, a large bowl of garlic sauce and four small plates, and then turned around and brought the sugar triangle.
Boss lady, "Eat first, the sauerkraut will be ready soon. I think you are in good spirits. Would you like some wine?"
Qin Boya chuckled, "Xiao Wu and I went back after eating. We haven't had a good rest after being busy outside these days."
Sun Tao understood it as soon as he heard it.
Some people also drink beer in winter, but more people still choose liquor. There are many liquors in small shops, such as Jinjiu, Erguotou, Yuquan, Taonanxiang...
Sun Tao asked for a bottle of Laolongkou, which came in a pound.
Taonan, Yuquan, and Laolongkou are all place names in the Northeast. These wines were sold well in the Northeast back then. However, after the release of Lao Village Chang Liquor, the sales of these low-end liquors dropped.
Sun Tao poured three glasses of wine, one for himself, Qin Boya, and Wu Xiaoying. "I'll drink with you two. Manager Li has to go to the song and dance troupe in the afternoon, so she shouldn't drink."
Qin Boya asked strangely: "What's wrong? What's going on?"
Li Xiaojun smiled slightly, "You are running outside, and we are not idle either. You both have seen the rolling shutter door, and the two assembled desktop computers were also delivered. Fangyuan's boss also gave us a switch within a kilometer. Threaded tubes and buried network cables..."
Sun Tao hummed and added, "Although the desktop computer is a bit cumbersome, its performance is no worse than my laptop. It has an Intel 2.4G CPU, 512M Kingston memory, and an LG flat-screen monitor..."
He glanced at the three bewildered girls and said, "This computer costs more than 6,000 yuan to assemble, and it's better than the one I had in my original song and dance troupe!"
Qin Boya showed a satisfied smile and said she didn't understand the configuration, but she understood it for 6,000 yuan.
"6000, that's a bit more expensive than your original one, haha."
Sun Tao smiled and said, "After two months, the computer purchased with the same money will definitely be better than the original one. Oh, Manager Li, please continue."
Sun Tao saw Li Xiaojun's teasing expression and knew that he had snatched her away. He immediately backed out. He picked up a piece of jelly, dipped it in some soy sauce and put it into his mouth. The jelly did not melt in the mouth but was very chewy, which meant that there was a lot of meat inside. Less starch.
Li Xiaojun rolled her eyes at him, "We also added a water dispenser to the office. These were all purchased with money; in addition, the company also completed its first business."
Sun Tao lowered his head and picked up another piece of boiled white meat, dipped it in some garlic sauce and chewed it.
Qin Boya and Wu Xiaoying didn't eat, but they looked at Li Xiaojun with great interest.
"United Chemical Plant just held an anniversary celebration last night at Buckingham. All the artists signed by our company appeared and made 20,000 yuan!"
"So many?" "How is it possible?" "Twenty thousand!" "No way, I heard it was only announced..."
Qin Boya and Wu Xiaoying talked about the feeling of a room full of women, but Wu Xiaoying stopped abruptly when they came to the stage.
Then she felt that she had made a mistake and wanted to make up for it, "I've heard about it, I've heard about it. Manager Li Jing from Huadu worked in Dongguan in the past. She said that the girls there would be worth 51,000 yuan if they met a high-roller. I've never heard of Wu'an. The most I've heard of is one or two thousand..."
The more he described, the darker he became, and the more he said, the more wrong he became. It was not until he saw Qin Boya glaring at Wu Xiaoying that she realized how wrong she was.
Li Xiaojun smiled, "One song costs 2,000. Feifei sang five songs by herself. A group of girls sang along in "Perfume Is Poisonous". The momentum even overwhelmed Liao Tao, who was the finale. Hahaha, I saw Liao Tao at that time. Tao's expression."
Sun Tao shook his head, "Manager Li, I think it's not good for you to be like this. Even if Liao Tao recruits you, he still offends you. Why are you laughing at me?"
Li Xiaojun, "I'm just stating a fact."
Sun Taoxin said, "As the champion of the talent show, Liao Tao now earns 5,000 yuan per song. When he attends the Spring Festival Gala, the fee will definitely increase." However, Sun Tao did not say this. Women always have 5,000 yuan a month. If you're emotionally unstable for a few days, don't mess with it.
Fortunately, Qin Boya interrupted at this time, "Qinglei is here. The songs that are going to be included in the Spring Festival Gala cannot be performed before the official performance!"
Li Xiaojun shook his head, "No, she's not free either. What I was about to say, Laba, is that the day after tomorrow, Jichun TV will have its first rehearsal with makeup. The TV station has made arrangements for food and accommodation, and the song and dance troupe will send a bus tomorrow afternoon In the past, we had to go with one or two people..."
Jichun TV's Spring Festival Gala is broadcast on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month in the north.
In fact, Jichun Satellite TV will have three rehearsals starting from the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the first time on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the second on the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the third rehearsal on the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month is the official recording. This version will be broadcast on the twenty-third lunar month. If If there are problems with the recording on the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month, the director will edit a satisfactory version from the first two times.
After Li Xiaojun finished explaining, Qin Boya and Wu Xiaoying were silent. They would be away for fifteen days, and there might be various rehearsals and endless waiting...
Li Xiaojun smiled, "Anyway, Qinglei has been living here and has become familiar with me, so I will go this time. Manager Qin, please worry more about the company's affairs. Boss Sun should try not to bother him and let him create with peace of mind." ”
"No! Let me go. No matter how you say I am Li Qinglei's agent, you are the general manager. There is no reason to let the general manager go at this time. How about this? I will take Xiao Wu with me and go to Jichun this time. We have contacted many old artists, some of whom have not met before. Taking this opportunity, the two of us can take turns to get things done..."
