final winner
Chapter 40
It is normal for parents to ask such questions. Who wants to hand over their hard-earned children without knowing why?
Duan Chen was not in a hurry nor was he surprised, he turned around and called for someone: "Xiao Lu, come here."
With a question mark on his head, Lu Dongxu walked up to Duan Chen, and looked at Father Lu again.
Duan Chen took out a small black box from his pocket, opened it, and inside was a smaller black box, only slightly larger than a one-yuan coin, about one centimeter thick, and it was actually made of black stone, covered with a layer of Warm light.
At a glance, Father Lu saw the two ancient Chinese characters "Bright" engraved on the ink stone box, and couldn't help but be surprised.
Lu Dongxu was stunned and didn't move for a while.
Duan Shen raised the corners of his lips: "For you, happy birthday."
The Moshi box had reached his fingertips, and he handed it to Lu Dongxu.
At this time, Lu's mother also came over, and said with a snort: "This is the first time I saw Cui Lan make this kind of thing... What's inside?"
Lu Dongxu looked up at Duan Chen, a little hesitant.
Duan Chen smiled slightly: "Open your presents yourself."
Lu Dongxu thought of Duan Chen's sentence "On my birthday, you can still have one...", feeling a kind of anticipation in his heart, mixed with nervousness, and slowly opened the ink stone box.
The box was covered with black flannel, and there was a ring on it. It was simple in style, without diamonds, and looked plain on the outside, but the inner ring was engraved with delicate and complicated patterns.
Lu Dongxu held the box and stared blankly at Duan Chen.
Lu's father and Lu's mother exchanged surprised glances. Children fall in love too quickly these days. The first time they meet their parents, they give rings in front of their faces. Do you want to kneel down and propose?
Something must be wrong.
Mother Lu asked, "This is?"
Duan Chen took out another platinum chain that he bought yesterday afternoon, put the ring into it, put it back into Lu Dongxu's hand, and said: "My mother left it to me, she hopes to give it to the right person."
Lu's father could tell the extraordinaryness of this ring at a glance, "Can I ask, who is Xiao Duan's mother?"
"Her surname is Lou... Uh, the founder of Bright is my grandfather." Duan Chen was a little embarrassed, and explained, "Even if my father disagrees with me and Xiao Lu in the future, with this ring, he will not treat Xiao Lu How is Lu?"
This is the most important thing his mother left him.
In the past, Duan Chen never thought that one day he would give this ring to another person. At least, when he gave the ring before rebirth, he used the diamond ring he bought himself.
But now, just as a birthday present, he is willing to give the most precious gift left by his mother.
He is happy.
He wants the best for him.
This is his sincerity and his promise.
Father Lu sighed: "I still underestimate you."
Duan Shen said seriously: "Uncle, I know that a person's life is very long. Xiao Lu is still young, and we are immature in dealing with many things... But, I hope that I can go on with him forever."
Lu's mother poked her dumbfounded son, "What about you?"
Lu Dongxu looked at Duan Chen, his deep blue eyes sparkled like stars falling into the ocean, and he said, "Okay."
Lu's mother couldn't bear to look directly at her, and the sweetheart was taken away by the man just like that.
Father Lu patted her understandingly.
Forget it, let's just treat him as one more son in the future, and a very good son at that.
The parents also gave gifts to their son that night. Mother Lu gave a set of Wimbledon centennial commemorative badges. Father Lu was more simple and gave Lu Dongxu a set of Chinese studies books.
Everything was going on like a family gathering. After Mother Lu accepted Duan Chen, she gradually talked more and revealed a lot of news.Xiao Lu is very simple, focused on his work, and doesn't like to socialize. When he was young, he learned tennis just because he didn't have time to attend some entertainment and banquets.
After he grew up, Lu's father's work shifted to foreign countries, while Lu's mother traveled all over the world to satisfy her archaeological hobby. Originally, she wanted to bring Lu Dongxu to England to settle down. Unexpectedly, this child suddenly decided to become a professional athlete, and insisted. To stay in the country.
In the past, Duan Chen only knew that Lu Dongxu played tennis in the first place to attract his attention, but now that he thinks about it, it seems that Xiao Lu has been separated from his parents for a long time, and he has nothing to do with him.
Thinking about looking for Lu Dongxu's figure again, after Xiao Lu received Duan Chen's gift, his whole body was in a bad mood, his face was blushing, and he didn't dare to look at anyone. He was in the corner of the living room, accompanied by two dumbfounded turtle.
What a fool.
Lu's father and Lu's mother didn't stay in China for a long time, and they didn't even come back to celebrate their son's birthday last year.Before Duan Chen left, he received a new task and promised to take good care of Xiao Lu.
Even if he didn't say anything, he would do his best to do it.
Deep night.
The car key twirled around at Duan Chen's fingertips, and he took a look inside the villa, but the two parents didn't look at it.
"Then, I'm leaving."
Lu Dongxu looked at him, hesitated for a while, and said, "Go to Germany."
"You have already told me, the day after tomorrow, you have to go back to training, I know." Duan Chen smiled, "What's the matter, you don't want to part with me now?"
Lu Dongxu: "Well, I'm reluctant."
Duan Chen's heart was softened by his behavior, "It's not that I won't see you anymore, you can go away at ease. Brother is busy with work, earning money, and writing papers recently, and Lou Yan's surgery is coming soon." , I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you when you're here."
"Don't be tired."
"It's you who don't get tired, right? I always feel that your training is too intense... No, you give me Sam's contact information, I don't worry, I want to check the post."
Lu Dongxu laughed, his eyes curved into lovely crescents.
Duan Chen leaned over to kiss him, and Lu Dongxu hugged him back.
"Take good care of yourself."
"You too."
The two talked for a while, and Duan Chen was reluctant to part with him, so he had no choice but to leave. He is a newcomer, so show affection should be done in moderation.
Lu Dongxu stood on the lawn, watching Duan Shen get into the car and leave, the warm lights shone on him, his whole body was inconceivably beautiful.
Duan Shen raised the corner of his mouth, I'm so glad you are mine.
The Honda pulls out, the city is brightly lit, the roads are open, everything is fine.
【Youth Rise】
☆, Chapter 41
The days that followed became hectic.
After Duan Chen revealed his identity on Weibo and stated that he was a film investor, soon after, Duan Ruitian approached him for a talk.Duan Chen and Lu Haiyang have been friends for many years. It is reasonable and reasonable to invest in this drama, and they have no intention of hiding it.Anyway, when the movie box office sells well, Duan Chen can't hide the big money he has earned.
Not only that, he also took the initiative to say that he was throwing money at Duan He.
"My mother never hated him, the child is innocent, not even that woman...you know."
Duan Chen's generosity was far beyond Duan Ruitian's expectation, and upon hearing such remarks, he was speechless for a moment.Duan Chen didn't give him a chance to sort out his thoughts at all, "The child in Duan He's girlfriend's belly is also my nephew... I didn't let them kill it. It's almost four months old now, and the risk of abortion is too high."
It is obvious that you have nothing to do with me.
Duan Ruitian only realized later that this son who had always reassured him, an outstanding young man who honestly worked as an intern in the group newspaper office, had done so many things silently.
However, nothing he explained could give him reason to be dissatisfied.
June is coming soon, Lu Haiyang's filming is fast, and it has already finished filming. It is in the process of editing and production. From time to time, it releases some bonuses and clips, but it also pays attention to popularity.
Lu Dongxu won another ITF championship in Australia, and his world ranking in the youth group has reached fifth. Apart from his first time, he participated in the ATP250 for the first time, and stopped at the top 16, as the first step to formally enter the professional circle.After the battle ended, the US Open Organizing Committee sent him an invitation letter for the qualifying round.
At the end of June, Duan Chen received the admission notice from G University.The boss of Xingyao Entertainment is finally about to officially arrive. A group of people cheered up and recruited entertainment company talents from other companies to submit the proposal. Duan Shen made many twists and turns, and signed a powerful singer who had become popular before his rebirth. , without wasting his gold finger, ready to hold it.
Not long after, he finished his internship in "Sports Ahead", and before leaving, he made an appointment with Chen Ming to play a game.
In mid-August, Lou Yan underwent surgery, and Duan Chen stayed in the hospital for 48 hours, from pre-operation to post-operation.
Duan Chen slept for more than ten hours, but Lu Haiyang didn't seem to close his eyes for two whole days and two nights.He smelled of smoke all over his body, he didn't dare to get close to Lou Yan, he could only watch from a distance.
Duan Chen also saw Li Qingzhou, who was unparalleled in beauty, watching Lu Haiyang haggard for Iraq with cold eyes.
Just like before he was reborn, Lou Yan's surgery was very successful. After this time, he can be regarded as reborn. As for whether he can let go of that girl back then, Duan Chen felt that it was embarrassing, and it was up to Lou Yan himself.
When Lou Yan's surgery was better, Duan Chen went to the United States without stopping.The main match of the US Open will be held from the end of August to the beginning of September, and the qualifying match will obviously start earlier, starting in mid-August.
There are 24 places in the qualifying round, which sounds relatively generous.But you must know that not all the players participating in the qualifying competition are from the new generation. There are also some people who have been ranked in the top 100 to top 200 in the world all the year round. Team players have no ability.
If Lu Dongxu wins the US Open qualification this time, he will break the record and become the youngest player in the four Grand Slam men's main draws in domestic history.
When Duan Chen arrived in Linshan, New York, the promotional posters of the US Open had been posted all over the place. Tennis elements could be seen everywhere, but there were not many people in the stadium.
It's just for the qualifiers, neither the center court nor the No. 2 court are open.
Today is an open day for the public. You don't need to buy a ticket to enter the stadium to watch the game. Duan Chen is wearing loose casual clothes, with a bag on his back and a DSLR around his neck. It looks like a reporter's standard equipment.
He followed the signs and found the location of the No. [-] court. There were about [-] people sitting there sparsely, which was already more than other courts.
Lu Dongxu drew a bad lottery, and his opponent in the first round was the No. 132 seed in the qualifying round, Dutch player Messer, who is ranked [-] in the world.
The first set has already started, 2-2, and each team secured serve.
Messer is the starter, and at 26 he is in the prime of his career.The whole audience focused more on the Dongfang boy in front of him. Lu Dongxu has grown a lot taller in the past six months, and now he is 1.8 meters tall.
Duan Chen still maintains a slight advantage of two centimeters, and it is estimated that he will lose his hold in two months.
He had learned some information about the opponent before the game. To be honest, he felt unlucky to meet such a relatively strong opponent at the beginning of the game.
But after seeing this game, I realized that having such an opponent is actually a good thing for Lu Dongxu.
If they can enter the main match, everyone is a world-class athlete, a genius who is one in a million, and no one will be weak.If you can't enter the main match, then it is your own lack of strength, and you can't blame anyone.
Lu Dongxu was in very good condition. Not long after Duan Chen sat down, he saw him hit a ball with one hand at a wide angle. Messer hurriedly caught it, but before he had time to adjust the angle, Lu Dongxu returned the ball with a wide angle. , precisely landed in the other half.
The small score came to 15-30.
Messer continued to serve, Lu Dongxu received the ball, and directly crossed with a forehand.
15-40.
Lu Dongxu held two break points.
There was no expression on his face, he just watched the other party's movements intently.Messer's serving speed jumped out on the speedometer board on the sidelines just now, 198KM/H.
quickly!
But it was picked up, and it only took one beat, and it was over.
At this time, Duan Chen also noticed that Lu Dongxu's way of holding the racket seemed to have really changed a little. In the past, Li Qingzhou mentioned that because of lack of strength, he could consider using a one-handed backhand for a period of time to borrow strength.
The Messer in front of him was tall and burly, and had an obvious advantage in strength.Lu Dongxu's first ball just now was a typical backhand technique, mobilizing the opponent from a large angle, making him exhausted.
But now this one is holding the racket with both hands and crossing with the forehand.The opponent's ball comes fast and heavy. At this time, the positioning is accurate and the technique is in place, so that the ball can fall in the sweet spot in the center of the racket, and the effect of using force to hit can also be achieved.
Could it be... are the two grips mixed now?
Duan Chen continued to watch, Maisel hit a good shot, boldly hit the net, and put a small ball to Lu Dongxu.But soon, Lu Dongxu scored the ball diagonally again, Messer ran back and forth, Lu Dongxu could easily control the situation as long as he changed his footsteps from time to time.
Soon, many people present saw that one of the technical characteristics of this oriental boy was precision.
The line judge can see clearly that the ball is always a few centimeters away from going out of bounds.
The long shot confrontation ended, Lu Dongxu took the lead in breaking serve, and the score came to 2-3.
After a 15-second break, Lu Dongxu looked for Duan Chen in the auditorium while wiping his sweat with a towel.Duan Chen raised his camera to take a picture of him, then waved his hand to show his presence.
Lu Dongxu laughed and tilted his head at him.
There were a lot of blond and blue-eyed foreign girls sitting close to him, and they took pictures of him with their mobile phones—the nympho really exists across borders.
Next came Lu Dongxu's serve, and the trend of the game became very clear in this round.
Lu Dongxu's serve speed is very stable, 180KM/H, and when necessary, he can hit ACE balls, which can approach 200KM/H.His style of play tends to be elegant, the whole process is quick and fast, and he can always end the opponent's attack in the most reasonable way.
Whether to hold the racket with one hand or two is determined by the ball, and he is indeed mixing it.
Maiser tried to repeat the old tricks and went online repeatedly, but he did not expect that after Lu Dongxu was fooled only once, he would simply go online in the same way. The confrontation before the net was based on the reaction and flexibility. Maiser found that the other party's mind was stronger than his own. Much faster, making myself embarrassed.
Most of the time, seeing through the opponent's intention to surf the Internet, Lu Dongxu directly hits a high ball to prevent the opponent from surfing the Internet.
You come and go, after all, Messer has played with many top players.Not really panicked, but just entered the state of being abused by top players in the past... Of course, there is a gap between Lu Dongxu and top players. He tried to adjust his tactics, and it always worked in one or two rounds, but the opponent's tactical response was better than his. It is even more terrifying than imagined, and it can always respond quickly.
After five and 10 minutes, the game was over.
3-6, 4-6, Messer lost two sets in a row and missed the main match.
Shaking hands and hugging in front of the net, Messer smiled, "It's the first time you've played against each other, you're amazing."
Lu Dongxu smiled: "Thank you, you are excellent... I have learned a lot."
The two walked past the tennis ball and came to the tall referee's seat to shake hands with the referee. The referee from Greece specially looked at Lu Dongxu for a while, "Very good."
Lu Dongxu packed his ball bag, and someone on the sidelines asked for an autograph, a handshake and a group photo.
Lu Dongxu showed an apologetic smile (he is not good at dealing with this kind of thing), tidied up his things, looked at Duan Chen who was smiling with raised eyebrows on the sidelines, picked up his bag, and walked into the long tunnel for players.
The mobile phone in the golf bag was already clamoring impatiently, Lu Dongxu answered the phone, still panting: "Huh?"
Duan Chen smiled: "Come out quickly, I miss you so much."
☆, Chapter 42
The author has something to say: catching bugs is not an update!
I'm a little busy at the start of school on 8.31, so I won't update, sorry!
How can Lu Dongxu come out quickly, walk through the player tunnel, the first one to return to is the player lounge, he also went all out for this game, the physiotherapist has been waiting for a long time, he can only say: "Wait for me for a while."
Duan Chen responded, quickly catching up with Yan Jian and Sam who appeared in the player's box, greeted with a smile, motioned the other party not to speak, and said, "Then I'll wait for you back at the hotel?"
Lu Dongxu's breathing was stagnant and he didn't speak.
Duan Chen joked: "You played very well today, do you want a reward when you go back to the hotel?"
Yan Jian has a black line on his head. Now everyone in Lu Dongxu's team already knows the relationship between these two people, and everyone in Xiao Lu's family has recognized Duan Chen's legal status... Even so... Is it true that you are not afraid of being burned if you are so blatant?
Sam has stayed in China for two years, and after reading more meanings, his eyes and eyebrows moved, revealing a classic and meaningful expression.
Lu Dongxu said with difficulty: "What...a reward?"
He pushed open the door to the lounge, put down his golf bag, and Kip, the newly hired physical therapist, beckoned him to take a shower and change.
Duan Chen walked into the player tunnel with a group of people, pondered for a while, and dragged his tune: "—I, do you like this reward?"
The door opened again.
Lu Dongxu turned his head, still holding the phone in one hand, and hung up the phone on the other.Duan Chen walked at the back, looked at Lu Dongxu, imitated his previous appearance on the court, and tilted his head.
The rest of the people all became light bulbs.These days, not only heterosexuals must be burned to death, but also homosexuals.
The physiotherapist spoke in silence: "Xiao Lu wants to go in for a bath, as a boyfriend, do you want to go together?"
Lu Dongxu blushed again.
Duan Chen said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for almost two months, can't you bear with it? Jip, please hurry up and finish the physical therapy, give us some time."
Jeep looked at Lu Dongxu helplessly.
Lu Dongxu silently walked to the bathroom: "..."
The player lounge in the top competition is very large. When Lu Dongxu went to take a shower, Jeep began to put ice cubes into the physiotherapy equipment. Sam and the masseur each started surfing the Internet with earphones. The nutritionist took out the tablet and started watching TV series. Yan Jian and Duan Shen started chatting.
The qualifying round is not very troublesome. It is divided into two rounds, followed by the final round, and the winner can get the place in the main match.
It sounds easy, but countless male tennis players in China have fallen tragically in this round, for example, Yan Jian in the past.
"His style of play shocked me, mixed with one hand and both hands...is it really good?"
Yan Jian is also very helpless: "He is trying. The current trend, one-handed grip has been abandoned by more and more people, but it still has excellent effects... Xiao Lu still wants to try it. "
"Inconstant, erratic, almost crushing if the opponent hits a powerful forehand topspin."*
"So now it's mixed... His purpose may be just to take advantage of the one-handed backhand. Don't worry, he is still a two-handed player. He is very smart and he understands it."
Duan Chen thinks about it too, the emperor is not in a hurry to do what the eunuchs do, Xiao Lu has a very professional team.
Just like he used to be more enthusiastic about basketball, like many fans, he would make the mistake of pointing out the country.A certain team keeps losing, so they follow the trend and take their anger out on the coach, labeling him as incompetent, saying what to do... until one day he saw that coach in a basketball training camp in China.
It can only be said that the professional ones are really different. The time and energy they put into this sport far exceeds that of ordinary people.Every decision they make is very careful, and if they fail, they will suffer more than anyone else.
Duan Chen felt that he should trust this team like Lu Dongxu did.
After Lu Dongxu took a shower, he went to lie down in the massage room in the cubicle, and the masseur relaxed his limbs for him.Lu Dongxu has a very good figure, narrow waist and long legs, thin and straight, so Duan Chen won't go in to join in the fun, he thinks it is possible for him to have a nosebleed.
After 10 minutes, the physiotherapist's ice cubes melted in half, and poured some into it again, applying ice first and then physiotherapy.Athletes generally have injuries. Lu Dongxu has slight signs of tennis elbow, which is caused by the fatigue of the elbow and forearm swing. Sometimes pain occurs, which is why he changed to a physical therapist.
After the physical therapy was over, a group of people left the lounge and returned to the hotel near the stadium.
Duan Chen said that he was a reward, obviously just to tease Lu Dongxu.He will start school soon, he is new here, and he still has an unreliable company to manage, so he is also very busy.
The qualifiers will not give too much rest time, Lu Dongxu will have a competition tomorrow, and Duan Chen didn't want to torment him any more.
The two went out for dinner together, took a walk for a while, and went back to the hotel to watch the CCTV program - the program filmed for the previous public welfare event happened to be broadcast on tennis - and they left after watching it.
In the past six months, they have been together less and more often, but every time they return to each other's side, it is as natural as waking up and saying good morning.
There is no anxiety, no suspicion, and more often, they are just working hard for the future of both parties.
When Duan Chen bought Xingyao Entertainment, he spent a lot of money to rent an office building, and even asked people to hire professional management personnel.In May of this year, he came to visit and found that this group of people didn't even reserve an office for him.
This time, renting an apartment near the school was also handed over to the nominal secretary.The secretary is usually a sound engineer who lacks inspiration, but recently he was inspired by the singer Gris, whom Duan Chen asked to sign. When he received a call from Duan Chen, he was still fascinated in the recording studio, and completely forgot about it.
Oops, it seems that no one has been notified that the boss is coming.
Duan Chen: "..."
Secretary: "Ah, boss, your office is ready. It's half a floor. You can come here for a few days. Everything is equipped according to the hotel's equipment."
Duan Chen chose between the hotel and the company for a while, let's stick to the company, he has to support his family, so he can save some money.
Facts have proved that the office is indeed prepared for him, it is indeed as big as half a floor, conference room, reception room, secretary's room, office area, pantry, and the place where the boss sleeps and takes a shower.
There is still a little water stain on the ground, it seems that he knew he was coming, and he just mopped the ground.
The secretary is a beautiful Caucasian girl, and she proudly said that this is the most luxurious place in our company, and usually guests are directed here.
Duan Chen nodded to express his satisfaction, and walked over to look at the other half floor.The secretary can't stop it even if he wants to, and he can't say that it's not convenient for you to see it from the boss's side.It was already nine o'clock in the evening, and when the lights were turned on, the place I saw was as if it had been swept away by zombies. It was extremely messy and exuded a faint stench.
Documents thrown on the floor, clothes and coats hanging casually, half-drunk coffee, half-eaten breakfast/lunch/dinner, dead plants...
There was even a window that was smashed, and the glass shards were still there!
What kind of friends did Lu Haiyang make!People who study art dare to be unreliable!It's just a snake spirit disease!
Duan Chen looked at the secretary coldly.
The secretary could only smile reluctantly: "I will tidy up tomorrow! I will tidy up tomorrow! Boss, please give us another chance, we will definitely be human again!"
……
At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, at the beginning of the second day, a group of art madmen were still awake at this point, and they were called one by one to do a general cleaning of the whole company.The building managers were frightened by this group of people, so they let them torment.
Duan Chen was sitting in the office with a cup of coffee in hand.Sort by name, the letters first come first, wash one by one and make a personal appearance, so that the boss can get to know each other.
If you don't report, you will be fired, regardless of whether you are talented or not.
Fortunately, there were not many people. At three o'clock in the morning, everyone got to know each other, and the floors belonging to Shining Star Entertainment were all cleaned up.
Duan Chen sent a text message to Lu Dongxu, saying that he couldn't watch the game.He never mentioned that he spent a lot of money to provoke a group of snake spirits, it was simply self-inflicted, raising a group of wild horses...
☆, Chapter 43
When Duan Chen woke up, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.
He opened his eyes and touched his phone. Lu Dongxu had sent a text message two hours ago: Got O(∩_∩)O~
Qualification for the US Open.
Duan Chen recalled the conversation he had with Duan Ruitian half a year ago, when he talked about the possibility of Lu Dongxu getting a U.S. Open wild card, he secretly wondered if he was thinking too simply.
Now, the teenager has obtained the qualification to stand in the world's top competitions through his own strength.
He couldn't help being proud of him.
Duan Chen threw away his phone and went to turn on his computer. While waiting for it to turn on, he went to wash his hands, and when he came back, he started to read news online. Sure enough, everyone was praising him for being a great man, which made Duan Chen feel honored.And a group of people in the company, who were turned pale by the boss who turned out in the early morning, were allowed to start work at two o'clock in the afternoon after begging hard.
Many people directly lay their bodies in the office building.
So in the afternoon, the secretary sent the account details that the accountant Pi Xing Daiyue had driven out, and saw that the young and handsome boss had already sat down in front of the computer, full of energy, and typed intently.
Really hard work...
The secretary sent the account feebly.
Duan Chen looked at it or not, and hummed: "Come back in half an hour."
The secretary stepped back, and Duan Chen continued to write the report.Although he has resigned, his relationship with Chen Ming is still very good, and Chen Ming has a very good relationship with the editor-in-chief of the tennis edition of "Front Sports". Chen Ming's name was on the conference hall - Duan Chen didn't want Duan Ruitian to pay more attention to him now.
Why do you do this?Of course it was because he didn't want to miss this historic moment of praising his lover.
Originally, male players were shortlisted for the Grand Slam. Although not many, it is not uncommon.However, Lu Dongxu came at a good time again this time. His previously recorded public welfare program is currently being broadcast, which has attracted enough public favor. Coupled with a series of previous news and exposures, he is now very well-known.It is conceivable that once the report comes out, the public will have a better understanding of his strength, even if he is out of the U.S. Open soon, it doesn't matter - anyway, he is already the youngest male player in history to be selected for the main match.
The most taboo thing about news reports is the subjective bias. Duan Chen defended his professionalism with difficulty, asked Lu Dongxu and Yan Jian about the situation of the final round, and finished writing the report.
There is another great advantage of this victory. The Tennis Association's handling of Wu Wei was still very vague before, and it has not made a positive statement.Now that Lu Dongxu has qualified for the main match, and Wu Wei has been eliminated in the first round of qualifying, it is enough to prompt the Tennis Association to decide to leave.
After Duan Chen finished writing the first draft and sent it to Chen Ming, he was in a good mood.
At this time, he could finally take a good look at the ledger handed over by the secretary.He always has to figure out where he has invested tens of millions and where he spent the money.
As a result, the more Duan Chen watched, the more he felt overwhelmed. He had bought a batch of professional equipment for the company before, but he didn't expect this group of people to buy equipment over and over again when they had money in their hands.
Bought fifteen guitars, nine drum kits, three pianos in a month...
The editing room of the recording studio has continuously improved its facilities and equipment, and has undergone major renovations four times in the past six months.The accountant also proudly noted that it is already the top in the world.
Duan Chen was so angry that he almost flipped the table.
Since it is an entertainment company, it naturally needs the presence of artists.Those who made movies with Lu Haiyang before, the heroines and supporting actresses were all paid by other companies, and only Li Qingzhou belonged to Shining Star Entertainment.
When Duan Chen came back to the company last time, there were also several artists, all of whom were in training. Duan Chen thought they were pretty good, handsome men and women, typical foreign beauties.And this time the accountant directly wrote zero in the artist training, because these people were dismissed as having no future and were fired...
There is no future in doing so!
So nowadays, apart from the two supporting roles in Lu Haiyang's movie, the only serious artists are Li Qingzhou and Gris, the male singer Duan Shen named to sign.
Without a hen, where are the eggs?
Duan Chen was going crazy, now that the company doesn't even have any artists, where can he make money?
Tens of millions, he still owes a huge debt to Lou Yan!
Of course, the company also made money.This group of cultural hooligans, mainly composed of artists from major universities in the United States, originally engaged in art on their own. After having the equipment and funds, they naturally rushed to show their skills and produce works.At this time, they are also kind, and they are all in the name of the company, and the price is negotiated by the company's people.
They recorded records for singers of other companies, did post-production for small-budget movies, took photos of celebrities, and even sold a script for a sitcom.
However, Duan Chen had seen these things a few months ago, so it was naturally not enough to extinguish his anger right now.
Half an hour later, the poor secretary knocked on the door of the office with respect for the hard-working boss, and undoubtedly received another cold look from Duan.
"Call Thomas over here."
Thomas is the general manager of the company, a classmate of Lu Haiyang in the United States, who studied finance at H University as an undergraduate, and became an unknown screenwriter during his graduate school.
There was a famous line once upon a time: Go away, you bloody money—it was vividly played out on Thomas.
Duan Chen waited angrily. Thomas was also working hard to write a script for an urban sadomasochism TV series because the boss came.
The boss summoned him, but he hadn't turned off the faucet of inspiration, and he was writing vigorously until half an hour later.
Duan Chen was originally happy, Lu Dongxu won the game, and it started only after the main game, so the pre-match training should not be too much, and they might be able to spend some romance together in a foreign country.
What are you playing now?
If he continued to be confused, what proof would he show Lu Dongxu's father?
Duan Chen was full of anger. When Thomas came, holding the accounts in his hand, if he hadn't been a little graceful, he would have been uncontrollably dumped on the former H financial giant.
He felt that he had never been so annoyed before, and after talking for a full 15 minutes, he simply said a lot of complaints that he had silently choked in his heart in the past.
Thomas lowered his head and replied sincerely.
When Duan Chen finished speaking, Thomas just smiled, and tentatively said, "Boss, you actually don't really understand... what should an entertainment company be like?"
Duan Chen was stunned.
He suddenly realized that he really didn't understand.
Thomas's expression became more serious again: "Boss, in fact, many entertainment companies...artists are coming here by the index."
Duan Chen: "?"
"Boss, I know that you may want to build a huge entertainment group, just like your father is doing now. Don't be surprised, you are so rich, we are still very clear about your family background." Thomas paused and continued Said, "But you have to know, we are still a small company now... You think we are unreliable, on the one hand, we are, on the other hand, because you think the company has too few artists... But you have to know, now we What we need is not a lot of artists, what we need is a star who can make a big hit."
Duan Chen: "You continue."
So Thomas continued to talk: "There are many classic cases in history. Some entertainment companies only had a few or even one artist at the beginning, but they relied on one person, one superstar, and they already had a place in the entertainment circle."
He coughed a bit: "To be honest, according to the thinking of the lunatics in our company - we either don't do it, or we do it, we have to do the best. The artist in hand, or simply give up, or we will become a superstar all the way."
Duan Chen: "..."
The two looked at each other silently.
Duan Chen was defeated first: "Don't fool me."
"The truth, boss." Thomas said, "Actually, boss, you have a very good vision. We are very optimistic about Li now. Judging from the current Ocean movie, he is an acting genius."
Duan Shenxin said that I know that this is indeed a superstar of our country in the future.
"As for Gris, he's just so talented, we're all crazy about him."
Duan Chenxin said that I also know that, that person is indeed the superstar of your country in the future.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that the future of the company is bright again?
Thomas smiled: "Boss, you will have an empire bigger than your father in the future, but for now, please watch us build the throne first."

Duan Shen Buchong
Duan Chen was not in a hurry nor was he surprised, he turned around and called for someone: "Xiao Lu, come here."
With a question mark on his head, Lu Dongxu walked up to Duan Chen, and looked at Father Lu again.
Duan Chen took out a small black box from his pocket, opened it, and inside was a smaller black box, only slightly larger than a one-yuan coin, about one centimeter thick, and it was actually made of black stone, covered with a layer of Warm light.
At a glance, Father Lu saw the two ancient Chinese characters "Bright" engraved on the ink stone box, and couldn't help but be surprised.
Lu Dongxu was stunned and didn't move for a while.
Duan Shen raised the corners of his lips: "For you, happy birthday."
The Moshi box had reached his fingertips, and he handed it to Lu Dongxu.
At this time, Lu's mother also came over, and said with a snort: "This is the first time I saw Cui Lan make this kind of thing... What's inside?"
Lu Dongxu looked up at Duan Chen, a little hesitant.
Duan Chen smiled slightly: "Open your presents yourself."
Lu Dongxu thought of Duan Chen's sentence "On my birthday, you can still have one...", feeling a kind of anticipation in his heart, mixed with nervousness, and slowly opened the ink stone box.
The box was covered with black flannel, and there was a ring on it. It was simple in style, without diamonds, and looked plain on the outside, but the inner ring was engraved with delicate and complicated patterns.
Lu Dongxu held the box and stared blankly at Duan Chen.
Lu's father and Lu's mother exchanged surprised glances. Children fall in love too quickly these days. The first time they meet their parents, they give rings in front of their faces. Do you want to kneel down and propose?
Something must be wrong.
Mother Lu asked, "This is?"
Duan Chen took out another platinum chain that he bought yesterday afternoon, put the ring into it, put it back into Lu Dongxu's hand, and said: "My mother left it to me, she hopes to give it to the right person."
Lu's father could tell the extraordinaryness of this ring at a glance, "Can I ask, who is Xiao Duan's mother?"
"Her surname is Lou... Uh, the founder of Bright is my grandfather." Duan Chen was a little embarrassed, and explained, "Even if my father disagrees with me and Xiao Lu in the future, with this ring, he will not treat Xiao Lu How is Lu?"
This is the most important thing his mother left him.
In the past, Duan Chen never thought that one day he would give this ring to another person. At least, when he gave the ring before rebirth, he used the diamond ring he bought himself.
But now, just as a birthday present, he is willing to give the most precious gift left by his mother.
He is happy.
He wants the best for him.
This is his sincerity and his promise.
Father Lu sighed: "I still underestimate you."
Duan Shen said seriously: "Uncle, I know that a person's life is very long. Xiao Lu is still young, and we are immature in dealing with many things... But, I hope that I can go on with him forever."
Lu's mother poked her dumbfounded son, "What about you?"
Lu Dongxu looked at Duan Chen, his deep blue eyes sparkled like stars falling into the ocean, and he said, "Okay."
Lu's mother couldn't bear to look directly at her, and the sweetheart was taken away by the man just like that.
Father Lu patted her understandingly.
Forget it, let's just treat him as one more son in the future, and a very good son at that.
The parents also gave gifts to their son that night. Mother Lu gave a set of Wimbledon centennial commemorative badges. Father Lu was more simple and gave Lu Dongxu a set of Chinese studies books.
Everything was going on like a family gathering. After Mother Lu accepted Duan Chen, she gradually talked more and revealed a lot of news.Xiao Lu is very simple, focused on his work, and doesn't like to socialize. When he was young, he learned tennis just because he didn't have time to attend some entertainment and banquets.
After he grew up, Lu's father's work shifted to foreign countries, while Lu's mother traveled all over the world to satisfy her archaeological hobby. Originally, she wanted to bring Lu Dongxu to England to settle down. Unexpectedly, this child suddenly decided to become a professional athlete, and insisted. To stay in the country.
In the past, Duan Chen only knew that Lu Dongxu played tennis in the first place to attract his attention, but now that he thinks about it, it seems that Xiao Lu has been separated from his parents for a long time, and he has nothing to do with him.
Thinking about looking for Lu Dongxu's figure again, after Xiao Lu received Duan Chen's gift, his whole body was in a bad mood, his face was blushing, and he didn't dare to look at anyone. He was in the corner of the living room, accompanied by two dumbfounded turtle.
What a fool.
Lu's father and Lu's mother didn't stay in China for a long time, and they didn't even come back to celebrate their son's birthday last year.Before Duan Chen left, he received a new task and promised to take good care of Xiao Lu.
Even if he didn't say anything, he would do his best to do it.
Deep night.
The car key twirled around at Duan Chen's fingertips, and he took a look inside the villa, but the two parents didn't look at it.
"Then, I'm leaving."
Lu Dongxu looked at him, hesitated for a while, and said, "Go to Germany."
"You have already told me, the day after tomorrow, you have to go back to training, I know." Duan Chen smiled, "What's the matter, you don't want to part with me now?"
Lu Dongxu: "Well, I'm reluctant."
Duan Chen's heart was softened by his behavior, "It's not that I won't see you anymore, you can go away at ease. Brother is busy with work, earning money, and writing papers recently, and Lou Yan's surgery is coming soon." , I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you when you're here."
"Don't be tired."
"It's you who don't get tired, right? I always feel that your training is too intense... No, you give me Sam's contact information, I don't worry, I want to check the post."
Lu Dongxu laughed, his eyes curved into lovely crescents.
Duan Chen leaned over to kiss him, and Lu Dongxu hugged him back.
"Take good care of yourself."
"You too."
The two talked for a while, and Duan Chen was reluctant to part with him, so he had no choice but to leave. He is a newcomer, so show affection should be done in moderation.
Lu Dongxu stood on the lawn, watching Duan Shen get into the car and leave, the warm lights shone on him, his whole body was inconceivably beautiful.
Duan Shen raised the corner of his mouth, I'm so glad you are mine.
The Honda pulls out, the city is brightly lit, the roads are open, everything is fine.
【Youth Rise】
☆, Chapter 41
The days that followed became hectic.
After Duan Chen revealed his identity on Weibo and stated that he was a film investor, soon after, Duan Ruitian approached him for a talk.Duan Chen and Lu Haiyang have been friends for many years. It is reasonable and reasonable to invest in this drama, and they have no intention of hiding it.Anyway, when the movie box office sells well, Duan Chen can't hide the big money he has earned.
Not only that, he also took the initiative to say that he was throwing money at Duan He.
"My mother never hated him, the child is innocent, not even that woman...you know."
Duan Chen's generosity was far beyond Duan Ruitian's expectation, and upon hearing such remarks, he was speechless for a moment.Duan Chen didn't give him a chance to sort out his thoughts at all, "The child in Duan He's girlfriend's belly is also my nephew... I didn't let them kill it. It's almost four months old now, and the risk of abortion is too high."
It is obvious that you have nothing to do with me.
Duan Ruitian only realized later that this son who had always reassured him, an outstanding young man who honestly worked as an intern in the group newspaper office, had done so many things silently.
However, nothing he explained could give him reason to be dissatisfied.
June is coming soon, Lu Haiyang's filming is fast, and it has already finished filming. It is in the process of editing and production. From time to time, it releases some bonuses and clips, but it also pays attention to popularity.
Lu Dongxu won another ITF championship in Australia, and his world ranking in the youth group has reached fifth. Apart from his first time, he participated in the ATP250 for the first time, and stopped at the top 16, as the first step to formally enter the professional circle.After the battle ended, the US Open Organizing Committee sent him an invitation letter for the qualifying round.
At the end of June, Duan Chen received the admission notice from G University.The boss of Xingyao Entertainment is finally about to officially arrive. A group of people cheered up and recruited entertainment company talents from other companies to submit the proposal. Duan Shen made many twists and turns, and signed a powerful singer who had become popular before his rebirth. , without wasting his gold finger, ready to hold it.
Not long after, he finished his internship in "Sports Ahead", and before leaving, he made an appointment with Chen Ming to play a game.
In mid-August, Lou Yan underwent surgery, and Duan Chen stayed in the hospital for 48 hours, from pre-operation to post-operation.
Duan Chen slept for more than ten hours, but Lu Haiyang didn't seem to close his eyes for two whole days and two nights.He smelled of smoke all over his body, he didn't dare to get close to Lou Yan, he could only watch from a distance.
Duan Chen also saw Li Qingzhou, who was unparalleled in beauty, watching Lu Haiyang haggard for Iraq with cold eyes.
Just like before he was reborn, Lou Yan's surgery was very successful. After this time, he can be regarded as reborn. As for whether he can let go of that girl back then, Duan Chen felt that it was embarrassing, and it was up to Lou Yan himself.
When Lou Yan's surgery was better, Duan Chen went to the United States without stopping.The main match of the US Open will be held from the end of August to the beginning of September, and the qualifying match will obviously start earlier, starting in mid-August.
There are 24 places in the qualifying round, which sounds relatively generous.But you must know that not all the players participating in the qualifying competition are from the new generation. There are also some people who have been ranked in the top 100 to top 200 in the world all the year round. Team players have no ability.
If Lu Dongxu wins the US Open qualification this time, he will break the record and become the youngest player in the four Grand Slam men's main draws in domestic history.
When Duan Chen arrived in Linshan, New York, the promotional posters of the US Open had been posted all over the place. Tennis elements could be seen everywhere, but there were not many people in the stadium.
It's just for the qualifiers, neither the center court nor the No. 2 court are open.
Today is an open day for the public. You don't need to buy a ticket to enter the stadium to watch the game. Duan Chen is wearing loose casual clothes, with a bag on his back and a DSLR around his neck. It looks like a reporter's standard equipment.
He followed the signs and found the location of the No. [-] court. There were about [-] people sitting there sparsely, which was already more than other courts.
Lu Dongxu drew a bad lottery, and his opponent in the first round was the No. 132 seed in the qualifying round, Dutch player Messer, who is ranked [-] in the world.
The first set has already started, 2-2, and each team secured serve.
Messer is the starter, and at 26 he is in the prime of his career.The whole audience focused more on the Dongfang boy in front of him. Lu Dongxu has grown a lot taller in the past six months, and now he is 1.8 meters tall.
Duan Chen still maintains a slight advantage of two centimeters, and it is estimated that he will lose his hold in two months.
He had learned some information about the opponent before the game. To be honest, he felt unlucky to meet such a relatively strong opponent at the beginning of the game.
But after seeing this game, I realized that having such an opponent is actually a good thing for Lu Dongxu.
If they can enter the main match, everyone is a world-class athlete, a genius who is one in a million, and no one will be weak.If you can't enter the main match, then it is your own lack of strength, and you can't blame anyone.
Lu Dongxu was in very good condition. Not long after Duan Chen sat down, he saw him hit a ball with one hand at a wide angle. Messer hurriedly caught it, but before he had time to adjust the angle, Lu Dongxu returned the ball with a wide angle. , precisely landed in the other half.
The small score came to 15-30.
Messer continued to serve, Lu Dongxu received the ball, and directly crossed with a forehand.
15-40.
Lu Dongxu held two break points.
There was no expression on his face, he just watched the other party's movements intently.Messer's serving speed jumped out on the speedometer board on the sidelines just now, 198KM/H.
quickly!
But it was picked up, and it only took one beat, and it was over.
At this time, Duan Chen also noticed that Lu Dongxu's way of holding the racket seemed to have really changed a little. In the past, Li Qingzhou mentioned that because of lack of strength, he could consider using a one-handed backhand for a period of time to borrow strength.
The Messer in front of him was tall and burly, and had an obvious advantage in strength.Lu Dongxu's first ball just now was a typical backhand technique, mobilizing the opponent from a large angle, making him exhausted.
But now this one is holding the racket with both hands and crossing with the forehand.The opponent's ball comes fast and heavy. At this time, the positioning is accurate and the technique is in place, so that the ball can fall in the sweet spot in the center of the racket, and the effect of using force to hit can also be achieved.
Could it be... are the two grips mixed now?
Duan Chen continued to watch, Maisel hit a good shot, boldly hit the net, and put a small ball to Lu Dongxu.But soon, Lu Dongxu scored the ball diagonally again, Messer ran back and forth, Lu Dongxu could easily control the situation as long as he changed his footsteps from time to time.
Soon, many people present saw that one of the technical characteristics of this oriental boy was precision.
The line judge can see clearly that the ball is always a few centimeters away from going out of bounds.
The long shot confrontation ended, Lu Dongxu took the lead in breaking serve, and the score came to 2-3.
After a 15-second break, Lu Dongxu looked for Duan Chen in the auditorium while wiping his sweat with a towel.Duan Chen raised his camera to take a picture of him, then waved his hand to show his presence.
Lu Dongxu laughed and tilted his head at him.
There were a lot of blond and blue-eyed foreign girls sitting close to him, and they took pictures of him with their mobile phones—the nympho really exists across borders.
Next came Lu Dongxu's serve, and the trend of the game became very clear in this round.
Lu Dongxu's serve speed is very stable, 180KM/H, and when necessary, he can hit ACE balls, which can approach 200KM/H.His style of play tends to be elegant, the whole process is quick and fast, and he can always end the opponent's attack in the most reasonable way.
Whether to hold the racket with one hand or two is determined by the ball, and he is indeed mixing it.
Maiser tried to repeat the old tricks and went online repeatedly, but he did not expect that after Lu Dongxu was fooled only once, he would simply go online in the same way. The confrontation before the net was based on the reaction and flexibility. Maiser found that the other party's mind was stronger than his own. Much faster, making myself embarrassed.
Most of the time, seeing through the opponent's intention to surf the Internet, Lu Dongxu directly hits a high ball to prevent the opponent from surfing the Internet.
You come and go, after all, Messer has played with many top players.Not really panicked, but just entered the state of being abused by top players in the past... Of course, there is a gap between Lu Dongxu and top players. He tried to adjust his tactics, and it always worked in one or two rounds, but the opponent's tactical response was better than his. It is even more terrifying than imagined, and it can always respond quickly.
After five and 10 minutes, the game was over.
3-6, 4-6, Messer lost two sets in a row and missed the main match.
Shaking hands and hugging in front of the net, Messer smiled, "It's the first time you've played against each other, you're amazing."
Lu Dongxu smiled: "Thank you, you are excellent... I have learned a lot."
The two walked past the tennis ball and came to the tall referee's seat to shake hands with the referee. The referee from Greece specially looked at Lu Dongxu for a while, "Very good."
Lu Dongxu packed his ball bag, and someone on the sidelines asked for an autograph, a handshake and a group photo.
Lu Dongxu showed an apologetic smile (he is not good at dealing with this kind of thing), tidied up his things, looked at Duan Chen who was smiling with raised eyebrows on the sidelines, picked up his bag, and walked into the long tunnel for players.
The mobile phone in the golf bag was already clamoring impatiently, Lu Dongxu answered the phone, still panting: "Huh?"
Duan Chen smiled: "Come out quickly, I miss you so much."
☆, Chapter 42
The author has something to say: catching bugs is not an update!
I'm a little busy at the start of school on 8.31, so I won't update, sorry!
How can Lu Dongxu come out quickly, walk through the player tunnel, the first one to return to is the player lounge, he also went all out for this game, the physiotherapist has been waiting for a long time, he can only say: "Wait for me for a while."
Duan Chen responded, quickly catching up with Yan Jian and Sam who appeared in the player's box, greeted with a smile, motioned the other party not to speak, and said, "Then I'll wait for you back at the hotel?"
Lu Dongxu's breathing was stagnant and he didn't speak.
Duan Chen joked: "You played very well today, do you want a reward when you go back to the hotel?"
Yan Jian has a black line on his head. Now everyone in Lu Dongxu's team already knows the relationship between these two people, and everyone in Xiao Lu's family has recognized Duan Chen's legal status... Even so... Is it true that you are not afraid of being burned if you are so blatant?
Sam has stayed in China for two years, and after reading more meanings, his eyes and eyebrows moved, revealing a classic and meaningful expression.
Lu Dongxu said with difficulty: "What...a reward?"
He pushed open the door to the lounge, put down his golf bag, and Kip, the newly hired physical therapist, beckoned him to take a shower and change.
Duan Chen walked into the player tunnel with a group of people, pondered for a while, and dragged his tune: "—I, do you like this reward?"
The door opened again.
Lu Dongxu turned his head, still holding the phone in one hand, and hung up the phone on the other.Duan Chen walked at the back, looked at Lu Dongxu, imitated his previous appearance on the court, and tilted his head.
The rest of the people all became light bulbs.These days, not only heterosexuals must be burned to death, but also homosexuals.
The physiotherapist spoke in silence: "Xiao Lu wants to go in for a bath, as a boyfriend, do you want to go together?"
Lu Dongxu blushed again.
Duan Chen said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for almost two months, can't you bear with it? Jip, please hurry up and finish the physical therapy, give us some time."
Jeep looked at Lu Dongxu helplessly.
Lu Dongxu silently walked to the bathroom: "..."
The player lounge in the top competition is very large. When Lu Dongxu went to take a shower, Jeep began to put ice cubes into the physiotherapy equipment. Sam and the masseur each started surfing the Internet with earphones. The nutritionist took out the tablet and started watching TV series. Yan Jian and Duan Shen started chatting.
The qualifying round is not very troublesome. It is divided into two rounds, followed by the final round, and the winner can get the place in the main match.
It sounds easy, but countless male tennis players in China have fallen tragically in this round, for example, Yan Jian in the past.
"His style of play shocked me, mixed with one hand and both hands...is it really good?"
Yan Jian is also very helpless: "He is trying. The current trend, one-handed grip has been abandoned by more and more people, but it still has excellent effects... Xiao Lu still wants to try it. "
"Inconstant, erratic, almost crushing if the opponent hits a powerful forehand topspin."*
"So now it's mixed... His purpose may be just to take advantage of the one-handed backhand. Don't worry, he is still a two-handed player. He is very smart and he understands it."
Duan Chen thinks about it too, the emperor is not in a hurry to do what the eunuchs do, Xiao Lu has a very professional team.
Just like he used to be more enthusiastic about basketball, like many fans, he would make the mistake of pointing out the country.A certain team keeps losing, so they follow the trend and take their anger out on the coach, labeling him as incompetent, saying what to do... until one day he saw that coach in a basketball training camp in China.
It can only be said that the professional ones are really different. The time and energy they put into this sport far exceeds that of ordinary people.Every decision they make is very careful, and if they fail, they will suffer more than anyone else.
Duan Chen felt that he should trust this team like Lu Dongxu did.
After Lu Dongxu took a shower, he went to lie down in the massage room in the cubicle, and the masseur relaxed his limbs for him.Lu Dongxu has a very good figure, narrow waist and long legs, thin and straight, so Duan Chen won't go in to join in the fun, he thinks it is possible for him to have a nosebleed.
After 10 minutes, the physiotherapist's ice cubes melted in half, and poured some into it again, applying ice first and then physiotherapy.Athletes generally have injuries. Lu Dongxu has slight signs of tennis elbow, which is caused by the fatigue of the elbow and forearm swing. Sometimes pain occurs, which is why he changed to a physical therapist.
After the physical therapy was over, a group of people left the lounge and returned to the hotel near the stadium.
Duan Chen said that he was a reward, obviously just to tease Lu Dongxu.He will start school soon, he is new here, and he still has an unreliable company to manage, so he is also very busy.
The qualifiers will not give too much rest time, Lu Dongxu will have a competition tomorrow, and Duan Chen didn't want to torment him any more.
The two went out for dinner together, took a walk for a while, and went back to the hotel to watch the CCTV program - the program filmed for the previous public welfare event happened to be broadcast on tennis - and they left after watching it.
In the past six months, they have been together less and more often, but every time they return to each other's side, it is as natural as waking up and saying good morning.
There is no anxiety, no suspicion, and more often, they are just working hard for the future of both parties.
When Duan Chen bought Xingyao Entertainment, he spent a lot of money to rent an office building, and even asked people to hire professional management personnel.In May of this year, he came to visit and found that this group of people didn't even reserve an office for him.
This time, renting an apartment near the school was also handed over to the nominal secretary.The secretary is usually a sound engineer who lacks inspiration, but recently he was inspired by the singer Gris, whom Duan Chen asked to sign. When he received a call from Duan Chen, he was still fascinated in the recording studio, and completely forgot about it.
Oops, it seems that no one has been notified that the boss is coming.
Duan Chen: "..."
Secretary: "Ah, boss, your office is ready. It's half a floor. You can come here for a few days. Everything is equipped according to the hotel's equipment."
Duan Chen chose between the hotel and the company for a while, let's stick to the company, he has to support his family, so he can save some money.
Facts have proved that the office is indeed prepared for him, it is indeed as big as half a floor, conference room, reception room, secretary's room, office area, pantry, and the place where the boss sleeps and takes a shower.
There is still a little water stain on the ground, it seems that he knew he was coming, and he just mopped the ground.
The secretary is a beautiful Caucasian girl, and she proudly said that this is the most luxurious place in our company, and usually guests are directed here.
Duan Chen nodded to express his satisfaction, and walked over to look at the other half floor.The secretary can't stop it even if he wants to, and he can't say that it's not convenient for you to see it from the boss's side.It was already nine o'clock in the evening, and when the lights were turned on, the place I saw was as if it had been swept away by zombies. It was extremely messy and exuded a faint stench.
Documents thrown on the floor, clothes and coats hanging casually, half-drunk coffee, half-eaten breakfast/lunch/dinner, dead plants...
There was even a window that was smashed, and the glass shards were still there!
What kind of friends did Lu Haiyang make!People who study art dare to be unreliable!It's just a snake spirit disease!
Duan Chen looked at the secretary coldly.
The secretary could only smile reluctantly: "I will tidy up tomorrow! I will tidy up tomorrow! Boss, please give us another chance, we will definitely be human again!"
……
At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, at the beginning of the second day, a group of art madmen were still awake at this point, and they were called one by one to do a general cleaning of the whole company.The building managers were frightened by this group of people, so they let them torment.
Duan Chen was sitting in the office with a cup of coffee in hand.Sort by name, the letters first come first, wash one by one and make a personal appearance, so that the boss can get to know each other.
If you don't report, you will be fired, regardless of whether you are talented or not.
Fortunately, there were not many people. At three o'clock in the morning, everyone got to know each other, and the floors belonging to Shining Star Entertainment were all cleaned up.
Duan Chen sent a text message to Lu Dongxu, saying that he couldn't watch the game.He never mentioned that he spent a lot of money to provoke a group of snake spirits, it was simply self-inflicted, raising a group of wild horses...
☆, Chapter 43
When Duan Chen woke up, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.
He opened his eyes and touched his phone. Lu Dongxu had sent a text message two hours ago: Got O(∩_∩)O~
Qualification for the US Open.
Duan Chen recalled the conversation he had with Duan Ruitian half a year ago, when he talked about the possibility of Lu Dongxu getting a U.S. Open wild card, he secretly wondered if he was thinking too simply.
Now, the teenager has obtained the qualification to stand in the world's top competitions through his own strength.
He couldn't help being proud of him.
Duan Chen threw away his phone and went to turn on his computer. While waiting for it to turn on, he went to wash his hands, and when he came back, he started to read news online. Sure enough, everyone was praising him for being a great man, which made Duan Chen feel honored.And a group of people in the company, who were turned pale by the boss who turned out in the early morning, were allowed to start work at two o'clock in the afternoon after begging hard.
Many people directly lay their bodies in the office building.
So in the afternoon, the secretary sent the account details that the accountant Pi Xing Daiyue had driven out, and saw that the young and handsome boss had already sat down in front of the computer, full of energy, and typed intently.
Really hard work...
The secretary sent the account feebly.
Duan Chen looked at it or not, and hummed: "Come back in half an hour."
The secretary stepped back, and Duan Chen continued to write the report.Although he has resigned, his relationship with Chen Ming is still very good, and Chen Ming has a very good relationship with the editor-in-chief of the tennis edition of "Front Sports". Chen Ming's name was on the conference hall - Duan Chen didn't want Duan Ruitian to pay more attention to him now.
Why do you do this?Of course it was because he didn't want to miss this historic moment of praising his lover.
Originally, male players were shortlisted for the Grand Slam. Although not many, it is not uncommon.However, Lu Dongxu came at a good time again this time. His previously recorded public welfare program is currently being broadcast, which has attracted enough public favor. Coupled with a series of previous news and exposures, he is now very well-known.It is conceivable that once the report comes out, the public will have a better understanding of his strength, even if he is out of the U.S. Open soon, it doesn't matter - anyway, he is already the youngest male player in history to be selected for the main match.
The most taboo thing about news reports is the subjective bias. Duan Chen defended his professionalism with difficulty, asked Lu Dongxu and Yan Jian about the situation of the final round, and finished writing the report.
There is another great advantage of this victory. The Tennis Association's handling of Wu Wei was still very vague before, and it has not made a positive statement.Now that Lu Dongxu has qualified for the main match, and Wu Wei has been eliminated in the first round of qualifying, it is enough to prompt the Tennis Association to decide to leave.
After Duan Chen finished writing the first draft and sent it to Chen Ming, he was in a good mood.
At this time, he could finally take a good look at the ledger handed over by the secretary.He always has to figure out where he has invested tens of millions and where he spent the money.
As a result, the more Duan Chen watched, the more he felt overwhelmed. He had bought a batch of professional equipment for the company before, but he didn't expect this group of people to buy equipment over and over again when they had money in their hands.
Bought fifteen guitars, nine drum kits, three pianos in a month...
The editing room of the recording studio has continuously improved its facilities and equipment, and has undergone major renovations four times in the past six months.The accountant also proudly noted that it is already the top in the world.
Duan Chen was so angry that he almost flipped the table.
Since it is an entertainment company, it naturally needs the presence of artists.Those who made movies with Lu Haiyang before, the heroines and supporting actresses were all paid by other companies, and only Li Qingzhou belonged to Shining Star Entertainment.
When Duan Chen came back to the company last time, there were also several artists, all of whom were in training. Duan Chen thought they were pretty good, handsome men and women, typical foreign beauties.And this time the accountant directly wrote zero in the artist training, because these people were dismissed as having no future and were fired...
There is no future in doing so!
So nowadays, apart from the two supporting roles in Lu Haiyang's movie, the only serious artists are Li Qingzhou and Gris, the male singer Duan Shen named to sign.
Without a hen, where are the eggs?
Duan Chen was going crazy, now that the company doesn't even have any artists, where can he make money?
Tens of millions, he still owes a huge debt to Lou Yan!
Of course, the company also made money.This group of cultural hooligans, mainly composed of artists from major universities in the United States, originally engaged in art on their own. After having the equipment and funds, they naturally rushed to show their skills and produce works.At this time, they are also kind, and they are all in the name of the company, and the price is negotiated by the company's people.
They recorded records for singers of other companies, did post-production for small-budget movies, took photos of celebrities, and even sold a script for a sitcom.
However, Duan Chen had seen these things a few months ago, so it was naturally not enough to extinguish his anger right now.
Half an hour later, the poor secretary knocked on the door of the office with respect for the hard-working boss, and undoubtedly received another cold look from Duan.
"Call Thomas over here."
Thomas is the general manager of the company, a classmate of Lu Haiyang in the United States, who studied finance at H University as an undergraduate, and became an unknown screenwriter during his graduate school.
There was a famous line once upon a time: Go away, you bloody money—it was vividly played out on Thomas.
Duan Chen waited angrily. Thomas was also working hard to write a script for an urban sadomasochism TV series because the boss came.
The boss summoned him, but he hadn't turned off the faucet of inspiration, and he was writing vigorously until half an hour later.
Duan Chen was originally happy, Lu Dongxu won the game, and it started only after the main game, so the pre-match training should not be too much, and they might be able to spend some romance together in a foreign country.
What are you playing now?
If he continued to be confused, what proof would he show Lu Dongxu's father?
Duan Chen was full of anger. When Thomas came, holding the accounts in his hand, if he hadn't been a little graceful, he would have been uncontrollably dumped on the former H financial giant.
He felt that he had never been so annoyed before, and after talking for a full 15 minutes, he simply said a lot of complaints that he had silently choked in his heart in the past.
Thomas lowered his head and replied sincerely.
When Duan Chen finished speaking, Thomas just smiled, and tentatively said, "Boss, you actually don't really understand... what should an entertainment company be like?"
Duan Chen was stunned.
He suddenly realized that he really didn't understand.
Thomas's expression became more serious again: "Boss, in fact, many entertainment companies...artists are coming here by the index."
Duan Chen: "?"
"Boss, I know that you may want to build a huge entertainment group, just like your father is doing now. Don't be surprised, you are so rich, we are still very clear about your family background." Thomas paused and continued Said, "But you have to know, we are still a small company now... You think we are unreliable, on the one hand, we are, on the other hand, because you think the company has too few artists... But you have to know, now we What we need is not a lot of artists, what we need is a star who can make a big hit."
Duan Chen: "You continue."
So Thomas continued to talk: "There are many classic cases in history. Some entertainment companies only had a few or even one artist at the beginning, but they relied on one person, one superstar, and they already had a place in the entertainment circle."
He coughed a bit: "To be honest, according to the thinking of the lunatics in our company - we either don't do it, or we do it, we have to do the best. The artist in hand, or simply give up, or we will become a superstar all the way."
Duan Chen: "..."
The two looked at each other silently.
Duan Chen was defeated first: "Don't fool me."
"The truth, boss." Thomas said, "Actually, boss, you have a very good vision. We are very optimistic about Li now. Judging from the current Ocean movie, he is an acting genius."
Duan Shenxin said that I know that this is indeed a superstar of our country in the future.
"As for Gris, he's just so talented, we're all crazy about him."
Duan Chenxin said that I also know that, that person is indeed the superstar of your country in the future.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that the future of the company is bright again?
Thomas smiled: "Boss, you will have an empire bigger than your father in the future, but for now, please watch us build the throne first."
