Chapter 262: Can You Talk Drunkenly While Drinking Tea?

The door of the box was pushed open, and Chen Shen sat still on the side. As long as he turned his head, he could see the people coming in from the outside.

The first one to come in was naturally Zhao Jingquan. He hadn't seen him for a long time and he was in good spirits. After he came in, Zhao Jingquan leaned aside and let in a woman wearing a brown coat behind him.

Only then did Chen Shen understand why Zhou Guican had such a big reaction. He has a non-aggressive appearance and a gentle temperament. His dark clothes don't feel oppressive at all. They just feel very textured and add a bit of mature charm. .

The two looked at each other, and Chen Shen stood up.

There was indeed a moment of doubt, is this the Myrna sister who calls herself Chen Xiaozha? There seems to be a bit of a contrast.

"Chen Shen, this is Mr. Tan from Penguin Video, here for you." Chen Tianhui introduced.

Chen Shen: "Hello."

Tan Zhiqing: "Hello."

A very simple greeting, Tan Zhiqing had a smile that seemed curious or inquiring. Where is Chen Shen? Poker face.

"Sit down and let them serve the food. It's getting late." Zhao Jingquan asked everyone to sit down.

Coming from the door were Zhou Guican, Chen Tianhui, Chen Shen, Tan Zhiqing, Zhao Jingquan and his son.

The receptionist replaced the service staff. The person who served the food was delivered to the door, and then the receptionist put it on the table.

Perhaps because he knew Tan Zhiqing's preferences, Zhao Jingquan also said he would not drink alcohol today.

He didn't speak to Chen Shen the whole time. During the interval between serving the food, he kept talking to Tan Zhiqing about some good projects that came out of Penguin Video in the past two years. To put it bluntly, he just talked with Tan Zhiqing in his arms.

The competition between the three major video platforms has always been intense, and now they are all trying their best to incubate content.

Tan Zhiqing coped with it, Chen Shen felt that she was in contrast, but she didn't feel that Chen Shen was in contrast.

Judging from the show, no one would doubt Chen Shen's emotional intelligence, but he didn't even smile upon contact? After all, they are also WeChat friends, okay, how stingy.

However, Tan Zhiqing could understand that she came suddenly and did not tell him about it. From Chen Shen's perspective, Tan Zhiqing felt that Chen Shen would most likely think that she was biased towards joy.

This matter is actually very subtle. Huanyue is a mature entertainment company that incubates content. Every year, even if it fails, there are online dramas and online movies on Penguin Video. It is a stable partner.

Moreover, they first extended an olive branch and were willing to take a step back on Chen Shen's matter and contact Chen Shen privately, which was a bit overstepping the bounds.

Another point is that Tan Zhiqing talked to Xu Mo. Xu Mo seemed to be very precious to Chen Shen. Who dares to talk about private things in private? Those who didn’t know thought that I, Tan Zhiqing, was going to compete with Xu Mo for a man.

Tan Zhiqing also wanted to save face. When she looked at Xu Mo, even if the song "Late Marriage" lifted the story between her and Chen Shen to a higher level, she still thought it was depravity. There was no doubt that Chen Shen was a scumbag. As he said himself, he had never I didn't lie to Su Mian, but what about the other people?

Isn't Xia Qingyi still ambiguous? Not to mention Xu Youen, if he met Chen Shen directly in private in this situation, the people in Pengcheng would be chewed up.

Yo yo yo, Xu Mo still doesn’t know yet, is Tan Zhiqing jumping in again?

Therefore, she could only get on the line with Chen Shen from Huan Yue. Moreover, in Tan Zhiqing's view, this matter was just business, and she felt that she must be more professional than Xu Mo.

Tan Zhiqing herself is a non-marriage person. To say the least, even if she is interested in men, she will never be interested in scumbags.

The table was also very subtle. Chen Tianhui may have noticed Chen Shen's general attitude. He lowered his head and leaned towards Chen Shen and said softly: "Since Mr. Tan joined Penguin Video, the content of the entire Penguin Video has been incubated to a higher level. , in terms of variety shows, it goes without saying that Xia Qingyi became popular under her hands, and in terms of online dramas, she adapted them in conjunction with the popular online novels, and several hits have been released."

Chen Shen and Tan Zhiqing were the same. Tan Zhiqing said yes to Zhao Jingquan, and Chen Shen also said yes to Chen Tianhui.

Doesn't Chen Shen know the origin of Tan Zhiqing? How can it be.

Although Tan Zhiqing is only the vice president in the project department of Penguin Video, she is doing practical things. Why should she be transferred from Penguin Entertainment Division to Penguin Video? Just let her do content incubation.

The Kiwi team has been gaining momentum in the past few years. Rap ​​culture is their main promotion and it has become very popular. They also have representative comedy programs. They sent several people to the Spring Festival Gala. In terms of online dramas, they have a lot of high-quality works in small series. .

On Mango Video, decades of accumulation have been brought to the extreme. There are a bunch of similar programs like brothers, sisters, singers, actors, etc., which bring a group of people together and create huge popularity. This kind of program has been copied by Kiwi Video. , but the response was average. No platform has done as well as Mango Video in this regard.

For artists who have been famous for a long time, Mango Video is backed by Mango TV, which is the best endorsement. They trust Mango Video.

What about Penguin Video? Although it is in full bloom, and animations, documentaries, variety shows, and online dramas are all being produced, it seems that there has never been any final work produced. The talk show culture they mainly promote has continued to explode, and now they don’t dare to do it.

Tan Zhiqing came from Penguin Video under this background and has great power.

Why is Tan Zhiqing so interested in Chen Shen? It is because at the end of 2025, "Love Lesson" finally told the entire platform that in the romance drama segment that everyone is working on, everyone is a younger brother. In fact, it is not just romance drama, but all other programs in the same period are younger brothers.

But this does not affect Chen Shen's attitude towards Tan Zhiqing. When you don't buy me, I can call you Sister Myrna. If you buy me now, I'm sorry, it can only be the respected Mr. Tan. I can't really be bought. , that’s still a joke.

Maybe she really couldn't stand Zhao Jingquan's bragging. Tan Zhiqing turned her head and looked at Chen Shen: "This is Mr. Zhao's flattery. I'm not as powerful as he said."

Chen Shen raised his head: "Oh."

Chen Shen only replied one word, and Chen Tianhui looked a little stunned, then smiled bitterly.

Zhao Jingquan and his son looked at each other, and the look on Zhao Xiaozhi's face seemed to say, Dad, look, it's really not my fault that Chen Shen and I were having trouble.

Who can stand such an arrogant attitude?

Zhao Jingquan coughed and said with a smile: "Xiao Chen, maybe there is a misunderstanding between us. Let's have a drink with tea instead of wine. You have your position, and I have mine. It just so happens that Mr. Tan is here, Let’s talk about it to avoid further misunderstandings.”

Chen Shen took a long breath and finally got back to the topic. He was holding himself back to death.

"Director Zhao, this is the first time we met, is there any misunderstanding? You said you would have dinner tonight, and I came over immediately. Where did the misunderstanding come from?" Chen Shen looked at Zhao Jingquan.

Zhao Jingquan: "."

Zhao Xiaozhi quit and interjected: "Chen Shen, pay attention to the occasion. There are guests here today. This misunderstanding is naturally between you and me. If you feel unhappy, I can apologize to you."

Chen Shen looked at Zhao Xiaozhi again: "Then what misunderstanding are you talking about?"

Zhao Xiaozhi: "I asked you to come back from Hengdian because my knowledge of the situation is limited. However, when you first joined the company, I gave you a role as the third male lead, and it was an S-level project. From the company's perspective, I'm not bad at treating you." Right? Even if Urahama does something wrong, he still has to cause trouble and shut down the entire project? "

Chen Shen smiled: "I understand. It turns out that the misunderstanding you mentioned is because I can't bear to be wronged."

"You" Zhao Xiaozhi choked.

Zhao Jingquan continued: "You can't say that. It's true that you were wronged, but you also vented your anger. Until the establishment of Huanyue, there has never been a incident where all the executives threw a cup in front of the whole company. For the company, "It's also a bad thing, but we didn't pursue it because we understood your attitude."

Chen Shen looked at Zhao Jingquan again: "Then I understand again. Director Zhao means that we are even. Then I will put aside the matter of Jiang Ying being fired. Please tell me, the company just sent this message without any communication to me. Lawyer’s letter, what kind of misunderstanding is this?”

Zhao Jingquan also choked.

Zhao Xiaozhi originally wanted to show off in front of his father, be more generous, and apologize to Chen Shen in front of Tan Zhiqing to show the situation.

As a result, I found out that there was no reason to say it, and now it seems that I deserve the apology.

Tan Zhiqing was still mentally scolding Chen Shen for being stingy, but in the blink of an eye the scene turned into a large-scale melon-eating scene, with people coming and going, leaving Zhao Jingquan and Zhao Xiaozhi speechless.

Zhao Xiaozhi was eager to get angry, but his foot was stepped on by Zhao Jingquan.

Zhao Jingquan was still more cautious, with a faint smile on his face, and poured himself a cup of tea: "As I said before, you have your position, and I have mine, but if it is wrong, it is wrong, and I will not refute it. In this regard, this cup is my apology for you.”

After Zhao Jingquan finished speaking, he drank without any hesitation.

Chen Tianhui wanted to speak several times, but found that he really had no position to smooth things over. This game was originally meant to make some things clear. He even felt that there was something wrong with Huan Yue, but he just didn't dare to say it. If he could put everything on the table and say it, Not necessarily a good thing.

Zhou Guican is a bit sluggish. Is it really possible for you to come and go like this? Then the boss really admitted his mistake? Can this matter be settled?

Tan Zhiqing looked at Chen Shen, thinking that if Chen Shen didn't know how to deal with it, he would take charge of the situation himself, but she saw that Chen Shen was also pouring tea.

After pouring the tea, Chen Shen raised the cup and looked at Zhao Jingquan: "I accept your apology."

After saying that, Chen Shen drank it all in one gulp.

Then the scene fell into an eerie silence.

Chen Shen put down his cup and said: "Although it's not wine, it means the same thing. There is no big or small table on the wine table. Since the boss wants to spread out and chat, then I will spread out and chat. My choice to join Huanyue is not a decision I made casually. Huanyue is one of the best in the film and television drama production industry. I came here wanting to show off my skills, but I encountered a lot of bad things."

Perhaps seeing that Zhao Xiaozhi wanted to refute him, Chen Shen looked at him directly: "Don't be in a hurry to refute me, just ask the driver. I have talked with him and people on the Internet have misunderstandings about me. They all think I went to Love TV for girls, but I didn’t know that my first priority from the beginning to the end was work. In my opinion, Love TV is a systematic understanding of actors, screenwriters and directors. What a great growth? "

At first, everyone listened attentively. Even Zhao Jingquan was in a daze. Could this guy say something nice? Also acknowledged Huan Yue’s film and television production side?

After hearing this, I just wanted to roll my eyes.

Chen Tianhui was stunned and looked at the tea brewing in front of him. He lowered his head and sniffed it. It wasn't wine. How could he be talking drunkenly?

He stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling person. He was complimented and there were important guests present. He had to respond. Zhao Jingquan responded: "I quite like this attitude. You continue."

Chen Shen smiled and said, "If I continue, you may not like it. I joined Huanyue with great expectations, but was greatly disappointed. Of course, I was disappointed not only by the misunderstanding you mentioned, but also by Huanyue's system. Film and television production is comprehensive, and it requires good directors, good scripts, and good actors to brainstorm with each other to produce classic works. Does Huanyue have these conditions?"

After Chen Shen finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Jingquan, meaning do you want me to continue?

Zhao Jingquan was pondering. At first, he thought that Chen Shen was the pride after the popularity of the love variety show. He did not release the repression of his debut in Black Gold, which was the result of his emotions.

Now put it in his place, it doesn't seem so outrageous.

People also said that he didn't choose Huanyue casually, but felt that Huanyue was one of the best in film and television production in China. This was said in front of Tan Zhiqing, which was very objective.

Calm down, does what Chen Shen said make sense? Of course it makes sense, but it's just impossible, and it's too idealistic.

But combined with Chen Shen's performance, it seems to correspond to this person.

Tan Zhiqing felt a black line on her forehead. What's the matter? I came here to let you talk it out and make peace? Are you playing me?

Zhao Jingquan did not respond. Chen Shen continued: "So, Huanyue's decline is inevitable, because Huanyue's system is result-oriented and only sees the coincidence of the times. If the times change, Huanyue will be gone."

Zhao Xiaozhi could no longer hold back: "Chen Shen, isn't that a bit too much? Let's talk it out, not for you to criticize unilaterally."

Chen Shen still looked at Zhao Jingquan: "Mr. Zhao, you are the boss of Huanyue. You know more about some things than I do. Is Jinyi really a good project? I left Hengdian and was more than just wronged. I believe you have a more specific judgment. Of course, I also hope that Huanyue will be well."

Unconsciously, the style of the dinner changed.
