double promise

[Come to our company tomorrow. 】

When Xie Guan woke up, he thought he hadn't woken up when he saw the endless news.

He stared at the unmarked number for a while, and hesitantly sent a question mark: "?"

The other party replied quite quickly, with a concise and to the point: [I am Huo Mingjun. 】

Xie Guan slipped his hand, and the phone slapped on his face.

The phone vibrated again, and Huo Mingjun sent the company address, asking him to go directly to the front desk tomorrow to find special assistant Zhong Heguang.

Xie Guan asked: "Can I find out what's going on?"

Huo Mingjun originally planned to say it directly, but Xie Guan's question aroused a little bit of bad taste in this unsmiling big devil, and he made a fool of himself: [You will know when you come. 】

Xie Guan pouted: "Oh."

Hengrui Headquarters is located in the core area of ​​the Eastern District CBD, occupying an entire Grade A office building, which is a landmark building in this area.Xie Guan used to only see this place from a distance when he passed by, never thought that one day he would actually meet this place.

The front desk asked him why he came, politely asked him to wait a moment, and called Zhong Heguang first.When he heard the other party's request, he quickly looked up at Xie Guan in surprise, and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, wait a moment, I will take him there."

She put down the phone, showed Xie Guan a well-trained smile, and led him to the elevator: "Sir, please follow me, this way."

At this time, there were quite a few staff members coming and going in the building. Seeing the front desk leading a strange face to the elevator dedicated to the company's executives, they couldn't help but take a second look curiously.

Xie Guan is not afraid of people looking at him, but he knows that for a person of Huo Mingjun's status, he is really not a "friend" who can stand on the stage, but more like a piece of dust on the corner of his clothes.

Isn't he afraid that he will be entangled and have other plans?

The front desk pressed the elevator for him with a smile, Xie Guan nodded his thanks, and the elevator door closed slowly, cutting off all curious eyes.

Xie Guan breathed a sigh of relief briefly, his eyes flicked over the small red dot in the top corner, and he didn't dare to relax too much.

The elevator stopped at the 27th floor.

There was already someone waiting outside the door. He was a tall and straight man with a youthful face but a rather steady demeanor. There was a hint of scrutiny in his eyes: "Mr. Xie, hello, I am Dong Huo's assistant, Zhong Heguang."

"Hello." Xie Guan shook hands with him.Zhong Heguang led him to the chairman's office, and said as he walked: "Chairman Huo is meeting someone, I'm afraid he will have to wait for a few more minutes. Please sit outside for a while, and I will go and talk to him."

While the two were talking, the door of the assistant's office suddenly opened from the inside. Fang Hui came out with a water glass in his hand. When he saw the two of them, he said "Huh" immediately: "Mr. Xie?"

"Hi Fang Zhu," Xie Guan said with a smile, "It's such a coincidence that we meet again."

Fang Hui likes this kind of man with a gentle temper and a tolerant personality. Except for Huo Mingjun, she has been in contact with Xie Guan for the longest time.Hong Kong Island didn't feel much when they parted, but when they met again at this time, the relationship suddenly became much closer.As soon as Fang Hui became interested in gossip, she immediately forgot Zhong and Guang to the back of her mind, and said to Xie Guan familiarly: "Why are you here today when you are free? Are you here to find the boss?"

Xie Guan nodded and was about to speak when Zhong Heguang coughed lightly behind him as if warning.

Fang Hui stood at attention: "Ah, you are busy, I won't bother you...Let's go now, right away!"

After speaking, he ran away, and his disappearance was so fast that it was like performing a "apparition" on the spot.

Zhong Heguang maintained a motionless expression, his murderous aura disappeared as soon as he let go, and he said calmly, "Mr. Xie, please."

Xie Guan sat on the sofa with a disposable paper cup in his hand, and while Zhong Heguang was looking for Huo Mingjun, he took a rough look at the furnishings of the assistant's office, but he didn't have any impressions other than being rich and powerful.Out of basic politeness, he didn't look around too curiously.When Zhong Heguang returned again, what he saw was Xie Guan staring down at the tea in the cup, no matter his eyes and movements were restrained meticulously, the whole person was as quiet as a painting.

This alone is enough to raise Zhong Heguang's evaluation of him to a higher level: "Mr. Huo has finished talking with you, please follow me."

The chairman's office occupies almost a quarter of the floor area and is as large as a hotel suite. The three office buildings in the CBD were all built by Huo Mingjun's grandfather. Although the interior decoration style of Hengrui Group's headquarters has changed several times, the layout of the chairman's office remains the same as when the old man was in charge.

After three generations and decades of ups and downs, this office has a thick and powerful aura, almost to the extent that the legs go limp immediately after entering the door.The decoration is dominated by dark wood colors, and the lights have to be turned on even during the day, but even so, it still looks dim.In recent years, with the popular job titles such as "director", "president" and "CEO", there are also rich and generous styles advocating European design, and it is always necessary to build a "Baroque sofa" or "French court coffee table". ".Although Huo Mingjun has all kinds of Western-style furniture here, he has completely abandoned the complicated and exquisite decorations, and occasionally there are a few strokes that do not have the slightest exotic style, but it is a bit like old furniture from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. , each piece silently oppressed the visitor's nerves.

The thick carpet completely eliminated the sound of footsteps, Xie Guan walked here, not even daring to breathe loudly.Walking through the living room to the office area, the whole floor-to-ceiling windows are finally eye-catching.The decoration of this place somewhat reflects Huo Mingjun's personal preferences: it is more modern, mainly in black and white, and there are not many furnishings, so it looks extra spacious. unreasonable.

Xie Guanxin said that if he was Huo Mingjun's assistant and faced this room and this person every day, he would probably be too depressed to want to live.

There was another visitor sitting across from Huo Mingjun's desk. He was a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes. When he saw Xie Guan coming, he got up and said goodbye.Xie Guan walked towards Huo Mingjun, the middle-aged man was about to leave, and the two passed by the office door, this moment was very normal and natural, but Zhong Heguang, who was standing beside him, felt a slight movement in his heart.

Huo Mingjun didn't notice the change in his expression, so he asked Zhong Heguang to see off the guests for him, pointed to the sofa opposite, and said to Xie Guan, "Sit."

"What would you like to drink?"

"Don't bother," Xie Guan waved his hand, "I'm sorry to take up too much of your time."

There is an awkward unfamiliar atmosphere between the two, and the time spent together on Hong Kong Island seems to be just an illusion.The dream was reversed, and in reality they should have had no intersection at all.

Huo Mingjun is indeed busy, even though this atmosphere makes him feel blocked, he can only put it aside first: "Okay, let's get down to business. You have cut off your original company and Hong Kong Island, and you should be completely free now Do you have any plans in the future, to continue acting?"

"Well, keep acting," Xie Guan thought for a while, and laughed at himself, "After all, I don't have a degree, so I know nothing but acting."

Huo Mingjun said lightly: "If you don't know how to learn, it's not a reason. If you don't want to leave this circle, besides being an actor, there are many other jobs."

"I usually don't say words like 'dream', it may sound fake. But you are not someone else, so I'll just say it straight," Xie Guan leaned forward slightly, using small movements to hide himself Embarrassed, "I'm... I really like acting. It's not for fame, and it's not entirely for money, I just like it..."

Xie Guan is indeed, as he himself said, a person who is not good at expressing true feelings straightforwardly.It’s good to be clear about some things in your heart, and it’s suspected of selling your feelings if you say it out.What's more, he was facing Huo Mingjun, a capitalized "use your strength to make your feelings fall into place", even if you dreamed of making flowers, it would not be convincing because of its real value.

Huo Mingjun has seen this set too much, but he didn't show any contempt for Xie Guan's insignificant "like".

He was noncommittal: "Up to you."

"About your future whereabouts, I have two alternatives here, you can consider them," Huo Mingjun leaned against the backrest in a comfortable posture, with his elbows resting steadily on the armrests, and his fingers propped up into a pointed tower "First, I have a friend who works in the entertainment industry. The company is relatively large. At least he is not afraid of offending Mr. Zhang and Mr. Wang. If you want to go, please send me a resume later. It shouldn't be too difficult to sign into their company." big problem.

"Secondly, Hengrui intends to acquire a wholly-owned film and television company this year, and it is still in the preparation stage. After the acquisition is completed, experienced insiders are needed to take up management positions. If you are willing to work behind the scenes, I can directly make a decision here. call the shots."

He paused, and said, "I thought it would take some time for you to choose, but I guess you've already made up your mind."

Xie Guan was already confused by the two options he threw out.

His original plan was to leave City B and go to the famous film and television base in Province Z to start over. Even if it was a trick, as long as he had the chance to act, he could struggle to get up again.

He stumbled and stumbled on this road, and even fell to the point of bleeding. He thought he was going to cross mountains and rivers, but Huo Mingjun just said a few words, and immediately moved the Taihang King's House in front of him.

The question that had been circling in his mind on Hong Kong Island resurfaced again: Why did Huo Mingjun help him again and again?

He raised his eyes to look at Huo Mingjun, but the man didn't look at him, he was staring at the void outside the window in a daze, wondering what he was thinking.

Even though he knew that this was a pure profit deal, Xie Guan still planned to refuse.No one in this world should be nice to you for no reason. There will be no pie in the sky, and even if it does, it won't be thrown into the same mouth several times.Before he knew the reason, he couldn't accept it with peace of mind.

"These two opportunities, no matter which one is too precious," Xie Guan politely declined, "To be honest, I'm not worth your trouble..."

Huo Mingjun seemed impatient with his fuss, and simply interrupted his words: "It's nothing worth it or not. These two opportunities are precious to you, but to me it's just a matter of one sentence. The child walked on the road carelessly. If you fall down and hold you up, do you need to tell me why?"

Xie Guan was speechless.

There seems to be something wrong.

The person who asked him forcefully, "Are you a three-year-old child?" seemed, seemed, maybe... also Huo Mingjun.

Huo Mingjun turned his eyes back from the window, and met his gaze indifferently. Although he was still aggressive as usual, Xie Guan seemed to see "Don't make trouble for no reason" written in his eyes.

"Then...well, okay," Xie Guan said dryly, "Well, can I ask, which company is your friend talking about?"

Huo Mingjun said unhurriedly: "You should have heard before that the boss's surname is Ye, and he is Xihua Entertainment."
