Chapter 552: Several encounters
October 19, 2023, Thursday, cloudy to sunny, 8~21°C.
An autumn rain and a cold.
In mid-October, the temperature in Yancheng continued to drop.
Shengyuan Jiajing community, townhouses.
"Swell——"
In the strength training area, the collision of dumbbells echoed in the wide and bright space, with a clear and powerful rhythm.
Tang Song was wearing [Outfit - Infinite Vitality]. The tight lines of his arms looked particularly smooth under the light. Fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his chest rose and fell slightly with his breathing.
After completing a set of high-intensity bench presses, place the barbell firmly back on the stand.
He wiped the sweat from his face, picked up the kettle and took a sip of ice water.
The coolness instantly dissipated some fatigue.
After taking a shower and changing into clean and comfortable solid-color casual clothes, take the elevator directly to the multi-functional studio on the third floor.
Sit down behind the height-adjustable desk.
Take out your phone and open the Xiaohongshu APP.
The first thing that comes into view is a pile of unread messages.
The latest note: [HEYISTUDIO visual recognition system is made public, shareholders are welcome to provide opinions! 】
Once again, it became a hit content, triggering heated discussions among netizens.
If the first two notes - "Announcement of Brand Operation" and "Chinese Name Collection" - were questioned by some people, they were just stories and scripted operations.
The emergence of this complete, professional and highly aesthetic visual identification system has basically dispelled the doubts.
The comment area was almost full of positive reviews, and many people in the industry even left messages saying: "This V system can be used as a model for the industry, and it is extremely spiritual."
Tang Song smiled and browsed through the comments for a while, nodded with satisfaction, and then clicked on the previous note.
After all, it is a collection with prizes.
So far, the number of likes has reached 8,000+, and the comments have exceeded 4,800+.
There are basically two names with the highest number of likes.
[合衣] and [合衣].
These two names have their own characteristics. The former is gentle and peaceful, implying integration and tolerance; the latter is more modern and stylish,
Full of design and tension.
He plans to organize a vote at an internal meeting to finalize the brand name after the collection is over.
Immediately, he noticed the ID [Su Yu’s April]
He didn’t think it was that strange before.
In fact, among his fans, IDs such as [Su Yu from Yan Province], [Su Yu’s girlfriend], and [Su Yu’s husband] abound.
The name "Su Yu" has long become an adjective for beauty and temperament.
But after retrieving the memory of 201718 in the magic city, he realized something was unusual.
He and Su Yu met for the first time in April, and that’s how the rest of the story unfolded.
Now that I see this ID again, I can’t help but have some random thoughts in my heart.
Is it possible that a female celebrity is behind this account?
He couldn’t help but click on the homepage to take a look, but found that apart from this ID, there was nothing special about it. There is no certification information and nothing has been published.
Sighing, Tang Song casually liked it and replied to several popular comments one by one.
Finish this.
There was a faint light outside the window, and the sky in the distance gradually turned from black to gray, revealing the morning light.
Tang Song leaned on the back of his chair and opened the system interface.
Enter the warehouse.
His thoughts fell on a prop that shone with silver light.
[Tang and Song Dynasty’s Scratch Paper]: A beautiful draft paper used by the player “Tang Song Dynasty”. Write down the projects, individuals, and companies you want to investigate. You can get more accurate reasoning information. Durability (3/3).
[Note 1: The river bed of knowledge, the hidden corner of thought]
[Note 2: When the durability reaches zero, throw it into the trash can accurately, you may have unexpected gains]
It has been a long time since I got this prop.
Now that the flow of investment has stabilized, the task [③Capital Hunter] has begun to advance. In order to speed up the progress, it is time to put it to use.
And his first goal is to “intelligent future”.
Last night, Wenruan returned from the Imperial Capital and officially took over part of the core business of Nebula International Group.
Tang Song and his eldest sister chatted until early in the morning and had an extremely in-depth exchange.
Select [Tang and Song’s Scratch Paper] and use it immediately.
Immediately afterwards, an illusory piece of paper appeared in his sight.
Use his mind to write down the "Intelligent Future" and the information he knows.
In an instant, the paper seemed to be activated, and lines of flowing text emerged, like some kind of mysterious code that was constantly being reorganized and analyzed.
After a while.
A complete report appeared in his mind, every detail present.
From the company profile, team status to main business and technical advantages, market potential assessment, and investment income estimate, it can be said to be extremely detailed.
It is much clearer than the research he commissioned the professional team of Rongliu Capital to do.
AI+ e-commerce will be a key focus in the next five years, especially in terms of content generation, recommendation algorithms, and user behavior prediction.
The market size of this track segment will exceed 100 billion US dollars in the future, and there is currently no absolute leader or unicorn.
There is currently no absolute leader in smart chain in the future, and it has the potential to become a unicorn.
After carefully reading the analysis report, Tang Song felt instantly relieved and wanted to hug his eldest sister and reward her severely.
Most high-quality projects have already been locked up by large companies or leading capital, and financing is also silent.
Even if Tang and Song Dynasties were qualified to participate in some of these projects by relying on their liquidity, they had to wait until the other party sought financing.
He doesn’t have that long to wait.
The draft paper of the Tang and Song Dynasties can only be used three times in total, and each time is precious.
It is not easy to select companies with real unicorn potential.
Even if it is Yimai Technology, he is not sure whether it can be regarded as a project that meets the requirements in the end.
Now Wenruan’s recommendation has directly helped him solve one-third of the problems. It is still a start-up company.
It seems that Yangcheng must go!
Tang Song stood up and stretched, and looked at the time. It was already 7:30, and the sky was completely bright.
Stepped downstairs.
Pushing open the door of the master bedroom, I saw the eldest sister squatting beside the bed.
is teasing the little snowball.
She must have just gotten up, her hair was a little messy, and she casually put on a long-sleeved bottoming shirt, covering her heavy, round E cup.
Due to the squatting posture, the peach buttocks were stretched out by the gray pajamas.
Morning light spilled into the room through the curtains, and the soft light fell on her body, reflecting the luster of her skin and the plumpness of her figure.
She lowered her eyes with a faint smile on her lips. She seemed to be completely immersed in the interaction with Little Snowball, unaware that anyone came in.
Tang Song leaned against the wall, looking at her quietly with a smile on his lips.
After a while.
Wen Ruan suddenly burst out laughing and looked up at him, "Have you seen enough?"
Her voice still had the huskiness of morning, and the sultry voice of a royal sister.
"No." Tang Song smiled, walked into the room, and squatted down next to her.
He teased Little Snowball with his soft fingertips and glanced at him slyly, "Since you are here, do you want to play with me for a while?"
"What are you playing for?" Tang Song's eyes lit up, his hands slid along her waistline to the edge of her pajamas, and his fingertips drew circles on the waistband of her pants: "Teacher Wenruan, are you going to help me correct my fitness posture again?"
"Of course I'm playing with kittens." Wenruo's body trembled, she picked up the ragdoll cat, and said in a magnetic voice: "Little Snowball, there is a big bad wolf trying to trick mommy, bite him!"
The collar of the bottoming shirt slipped down with the movement, revealing half of the shoulders.
Tang Song couldn’t help but reached out and gently rubbed the Ragdoll cat’s little head, running his fingertips through its soft hair, "Little Snowball, your mother is lying to you again."
In the quiet bedroom, the cry of "Meow Meow Meow" echoed, like a response, but also like coquettishness.
The fragrance is overflowing.
"Ding-ding-ding-" The phone's ringtone suddenly rang.
Tang Song glanced at the caller information.
It’s Zhang Lei, a junior high school classmate.
Raising his eyebrows, Tang Song petted the cat and answered the phone, "Hello, Zhang Lei."
A familiar and slightly hoarse voice came from the receiver: "Tang Song, are you not busy now?"
Tang Song looked down and looked at the person leaning against him. The eldest sister who was moaning in her arms slightly raised her lips: "You're not busy, what's wrong?"
"Shit, I've been saying I want to have a drink with you before, but I've been in Yancheng for more than half a month and still haven't fulfilled my promise. I just got a client with the leader, and I can finally take a breather. Are you free tonight? Let's meet!"
After thinking for a moment, Tang Song said: "I have time."
"Okay, I live in the company dormitory, and there is a very authentic barbecue restaurant here. How about we have barbecue?"
"No problem, I have no objection.
"OK, I'll send you the location, see you tonight!"
After hanging up the phone, Sister Tang Song Chao blinked and continued to pet the cat.
Huashang Clothing, 3rd Floor, R&D Design Center.
An independent office area with partitions.
The sound of footsteps came from far away, and the assistant designer walked in, with a hint of uncontrollable admiration in his tone:
"Lingling, your sample dress has been finished."
She could not hide her excitement: "The real thing is really beautiful. If this dress is officially launched, it will definitely become a hit."
Hearing this, Yao Lingling stood up from her workstation suddenly, her eyes bright: "I'll go take a look!"
After saying that, she almost trotted into the sample area.
Sunlight shines in through the glass window, shining in a bright and tidy model room.
Near the east side, a caramel brown turtleneck sweater paired with dark gray slightly wide suit pants hangs quietly on the model, and there are two identical sets next to it.
Yao Lingling took a closer look and reached out to gently touch the piece of high-grade wool blended fabric. The texture was warm and delicate, and the lines were smooth and natural.
The cuffs and collar are three-dimensionally cut, which is crisp and stylish; the metal fasteners at the waistline are custom-made, low-key and exquisite, which can be called a touch of beauty.
Senior, this design is really amazing!
Although she had already seen the sketches and drawn the layout herself, the finished product still exceeded her expectations - it not only completely restored the sketches of the Tang and Song Dynasties, but also optimized the details.
After all, Huashang Clothing is a large factory with complete production lines and experienced masters.
From the time she submitted the design draft to the completion of the sample, it only took two or three days. The efficiency was extremely high and the workmanship was impeccable.
She has begun to look forward to what Tang and Song Dynasty looked like in their clothes.
I looked at the time.
Looking at the time on her phone, she picked up the camera and pointed it at the model, chose the angle, took a few photos carefully, then opened WeChat and sent it to Tang Song.
He left a message: "Senior, the clothes are ready. The real thing is really great. Come and take a look! By the way,
When can you come to Huashang? I have already coordinated the production line and can arrange shooting at any time!"
Yesterday, Tang Song told her at the company that he would come here to shoot a video today.
On the one hand, it is to enhance brand authenticity and trust, on the other hand, it is to create a "nurture system" atmosphere and strengthen user participation.
She was naturally very happy about the update of the Little Red Book in Tang and Song Dynasties.
As the senior’s cyber girlfriend, she is invincible in the comment section of “April”.
Thinking of this, Yao Lingling chuckled.
Open the Xiaohongshu App and turn to the latest notes from the Tang and Song Dynasties.
Go down.
Her ID appears at the top.
【Yao Yao Ling】: "Thank you all for supporting my cyber boyfriend. Are there any sisters who want to participate in the co-creation of brand clothing? We can form a "cyber shareholder group" and we can discuss the colors, styles, and design details of the subsequent clothes together. Sisters who want to join the group can message me privately, waiting for you to tease me! Secretly, I can directly convey everyone’s suggestions to April (#wink).
What makes Yao Lingling extremely happy is that this comment was manually pinned to the top by Tang and Song.
In other words, I have received official certification.
The only designated "Cyber Girlfriend"!
Hum, with this name, the other ardent fans will be a head shorter than themselves!
In fact, since the Tang and Song Dynasties counterattacked and transformed into a handsome male god, many "faced dogs" have appeared in his Xiaohongshu comment area one after another.
These people leave messages and interact every day, crazily trying to increase their presence, and some even create special groups to attract people to "raise April" together,
They are trying to steal the throne of "the number one fan".
Among them, the one who looked most familiar to her was the girl with the ID name [Su Yu’s April].
But as the most important early participant, the cyber girlfriend with the most interactions, the elementary school girl who knows everything.
How can her position be shaken by the other party?
Clicked on the message interface, and there were already a bunch of private messages in it.
As the core designer of Songmei Clothing, Yao Lingling’s commitment is indeed serious, and she also wants to listen to the opinions of these people and help the seniors to solidify their fans.
Immediately, Yao Lingling began to send the QQ group numbers one by one.
One of them responded very quickly, almost as soon as the message was sent, the other party replied.
[Pica QQ: "Thank you, I have applied, and I hope it will be approved as soon as possible."]
Yao Lingling was about to reply to her.
Suddenly there was a burst of footsteps behind her, from far to near,
Then, there was the familiar voice that made her heart beat faster: "Lingling."
She subconsciously turned around, her eyes fell on the person who came, and the corners of her mouth instantly raised, her eyes shining: "Mr. Tang, you are here!"
Tang Song nodded slightly and said a few words to several senior executives of Huashang Clothing beside him.
Several people nodded and left, and the sample area gradually became quiet.
Tang Song came to the model and his eyes paused on Yao Lingling for a moment, on her buttocks to be precise.
With targeted fitness, this elementary school girl’s talent gradually emerged.
The full buttocks brought by the standard pear-shaped figure are still very eye-catching even if they are hidden under loose trousers.
The overall look is even bigger than the big sister’s peach buttocks, which has a great visual impact.
Sensing Tang Song's gaze, Yao Lingling blushed slightly and patted him boldly, "This is not polite!"
When her palm touched his arm, the clear and strong muscles made her feel itchy.
Tang Song chuckled, "What's wrong with my cyber girlfriend? Can't you even look at it?"
Yao Lingling whispered, her heart pounding, "Okay, since you are my cyberboyfriend and boss, I will do my best and won't argue with you."
The two of them teased each other one by one, with a relaxed tone but with a hint of warmth.
Tang Song took a set of [Encounter in Autumn] and walked into the dressing room.
After a while, he walked out slowly.
Yao Lingling was standing aside. The moment her eyes subconsciously came up to meet her, her whole figure seemed to be frozen.
A layer of mist suddenly appeared in his eyes, and his teeth gently bit his lower lip.
Tang Song stood there quietly, as if he was the leading actor from a certain literary movie.
The caramel brown turtleneck sweater is gentle and high-end, with a slightly loose H-shaped cut, the shoulder line droops naturally, and the cuffs are slightly closed, lazy but elegant; the black trousers are slim and neat, and paired with a pair of brown leather shoes, perfectly outline the slender figure.
His skin color looks healthy and transparent against the color, his collarbone line is looming, and his neck is wrapped in a high collar just right. He has warmth but cannot hide his intellectual temperament.
The standard urban literary god.
"How was it?" Tang Song tilted his head slightly and asked her with a smile.
Yao Lingling blushed and said, "Very handsome."
"You did a great job, the size is very suitable, and it is very comfortable to wear." Tang Song stepped forward and couldn't help but patted the elementary school girl's big butt, "Come on, Lingling, come with me. Take a video."
Yao Lingling's body trembled suddenly, her cheeks instantly turned red, and she nodded stammering, "Oh, oh, okay."
She followed Tang Song quickly, her mind running wild.
Then, accompanied by the production manager, the two walked into the "new smart workshop" that had been put into use.
The lighting is soft and even, using a shadowless LED industrial lighting system to create a quiet and technological sense of space.
The fully automatic cutting bed with 0.1mm precision, laser cutting machine, intelligent hanging system, and Swiss Saurer embroidery machine have a modern industrial aesthetic.
The Tang and Song Dynasties took action cameras and began to shoot and record.
It’s half past six in the evening.
The sky has completely darkened, and the city’s neon lights are twinkling in the night.
The black Rolls-Royce was parked outside a pedestrian street, attracting the attention of passers-by.
Tang Song got off the car and walked slowly along the street.
After walking two to three hundred meters, he stopped, raised his head slightly, and looked a little dazed.
【Tianji BBQ Restaurant】
When I saw Zhang Lei sending location information before, I thought it looked familiar.
It turns out this is here.
When he was working at Jinxiu Trading, the last team building was held here.
It was also that night that the game came true and the dream came true.
This is a mid-to-high-end barbecue restaurant, occupying the third floor of a street-facing shop.
The decoration is exquisite, there are many private rooms, and the environment is comfortable.
Open the door and walk into the restaurant.
The aroma of barbecue wafts in the air, mixed with the faint aroma of wine.
Tang Song took a few steps forward and soon saw his old classmate Zhang Lei sitting by the window.
The other party was looking down at the menu with a focused expression.
Different from his previous appearance in Quancheng, he was wearing a crisp suit and his hair was neatly done. His whole person showed a certain maturity and capability.
"Zhang Lei!" Tang Song greeted with a smile and walked forward quickly.
"Tang Song, long time no see."
Zhang Lei stood up immediately and gave him a warm hug.
"Not bad, the clothes are very brand-like."
Zhang Lei smiled sheepishly, "Damn, sales people, especially nowadays, are dealing with big customers, you have to be a little bit smart. Look. You are getting more and more handsome, and you are indeed in the clothing business. Today's clothes are very artistic." He keenly noticed that with the arrival of Tang and Song Dynasties, many older girls and younger wives in the store were peeking here.
After the two sat down, they ordered and chatted. The atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.
Zhang Lei deliberately ordered more dishes and added in a low voice: "There is actually a reason for choosing this store. Our company has signed a cooperation agreement with them. As a salesperson, I have a monthly consumption quota. I am treating you today, and I don't have to spend my own money anyway."
"Haha, okay, I'll take advantage of you. Your company treats you very well. Ah."
"Yes!" Zhang Lei opened a bottle of Laoshan and filled it up for the two of them, "Here, one goes first."
"Cheers."
Because it was a working day, there were not many customers in the store, so the barbecue they ordered was served quickly.
The cold wine slid down the throat, mixed with the spicy and delicious meat skewers, and the atmosphere between the two gradually became warm.
From the chat, Tang Song also learned about Zhang Lei’s current situation.
After joining Zhongcheng Group, he still worked as a channel business specialist in the food and beverage sector, responsible for connecting with large customers such as supermarket chains, convenience stores, and catering companies.
Compared with the previous job, the pressure is much lighter, but the salary has been significantly improved.
He is very satisfied with his current situation.
He pointed his fingers to settle accounts with Tang and Song Dynasties: If he is lucky, he can pay off his family's debt next year, and then he can consider saving money to buy a house and truly settle down in Yancheng.
He also took a fancy to a female colleague in the company and was thinking about how to pursue her.
Between cups and cups, Tang and Song saw a long-lost light in his eyes - expectations for the future and satisfaction with current life.
Tang and Song Dynasties were sincerely happy for this old classmate.
My mind couldn’t help but think of another junior high school classmate, Zhang Yan.
At this time.
Opposite Zhang Lei suddenly sat up straight, put down his wine glass, and his expression became a little nervous.
"What's wrong?" Sensing his strangeness, Tang Song asked casually.
Zhang Lei pursed his lips and lowered his voice: "I saw the leader of our company walking towards us, I have to say hello."
Tang Song turned around and followed his line of sight, and sure enough he saw three figures walking in from the door of the restaurant.
A young man in his mid-twenties walked at the front, followed by two older middle-aged people.
Tang Song’s eyes fell on the young man, his brows raised slightly.
With fair skin, handsome appearance, and refreshing and clean temperament, he looks very much like the flower boy in Korean dramas.
Gao Junfeng?
This name instantly appeared in Tang and Song’s mind.
The reason why I have a deep impression on him is also because of Qiuqiu.
Soon he remembered that Gao Junfeng was attending the private bank meeting as Su Ping's assistant.
And Su Ping is the vice president of Zhongcheng Group.
As they watched, the three of them stepped in.
Zhang Lei stood up quickly and greeted him with a smile, "Assistant Gao, Mr. Wang, Brother Liu, good evening."
"Oh? Zhang Lei." Department manager Liu Huiyang nodded with a smile and casually introduced: "This is our new colleague, Zhang Lei."
The other two people just said "hmm" lightly and didn't pay much attention to this clerk.
Immediately afterwards, Gao Junfeng's eyes suddenly fell behind Zhang Lei, his eyes moved slightly, "Tang Song?"
Tang Song held the wine glass in his hand and nodded calmly towards him.
Several people cast strange looks.
Zhang Lei asked in surprise: "Assistant Gao, do you know Tang Song?"
It has been more than half a month since he joined the company, and he has basically figured out the main leaders in the company.
Vice President Su Ping is responsible for the "food and beverage" business, and her assistant Gao Junfeng's actual status naturally far exceeds his rank. Especially in the personnel and resource allocation of the food and beverage sector, it has a certain degree of influence.
Even Liu Huiyang, the manager of their department, was courteous to Gao Junfeng.
This can be seen from the positions of the three people at this moment.
If he can establish contact with Gao Junfeng, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to his career development in Zhongcheng Group.
Gao Junfeng smiled lightly, "We do know each other, we have met several times."
After saying that, he took a deep look at Tang Song and continued walking upstairs without stopping.
