Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 237: Paradise
At Sichuan Southern Suburbs Airport, Zhou Dongsheng, alone, walked out of the fast lane, exhausted.
Strictly speaking, this is Zhou Dongsheng's second time to come to this place, which can be regarded as a revisit to an old place, but the last time he came and left in a hurry just to sign Li Jiajia.
This time, Zhou Dongsheng came here purely to relax his body and mind. After all, he had dealt with so many major events during this period of time, and his tense nerves deserved to be relaxed.
Even if you are a hands-off boss, you still need to combine work and rest!
As for his personal assistant Li Jiana, Zhou Dongsheng temporarily sent her back to Yangcheng to help him deal with some work matters.
Even if this is an excuse, it is a legitimate excuse. As for the reason, everyone understands it.
As soon as I walked out of the airport, I saw a familiar-looking man waving at me and said excitedly, "Sister...Oh no, boss! This way!"
It turned out to be Li Jiajia's younger brother. I met him once when I signed the contract last time. No wonder he looked so familiar.
In addition to expressing his warm welcome to the news that his boss Zhou Dongsheng was coming, Li Jiajia naturally also had to fulfill his responsibilities as a host. Having his younger brother pick him up at the airport was only the first step.
"Li Jiajia's younger brother, right? I was in a hurry when I came last time and forgot to ask your name. Please forgive me." Zhou Dongsheng said with a friendly smile.
"Boss, it's normal for you to forget things. Just call me Jiafeng." Li Jiafeng took the luggage from Zhou Dongsheng with great enthusiasm.
"Where's your sister? Didn't she come with you?" Zhou Dongsheng asked casually.
"My sister is preparing a big meal at home. The journey is quite far, so I'm here alone to pick you up. Don't mind it, boss." Li Jiafeng said cunningly.
"Don't be so polite. I'm drooling when you talk about delicious food. I often watch your sister's videos and have always wanted to try her cooking. That's why I took the liberty of coming over to be your guest. I'm sorry for disturbing you." Zhou Dongsheng said with a casual smile.
After all, the two people had only met once, and they felt quite unfamiliar at first contact, especially since they had preconceived ideas. Li Jiafeng was still a little cautious in his heart, as if he was walking on ice.
After all, in his mind, Zhou Dongsheng is a veritable big boss. Not only can he chat and laugh with big shots like Principal Wang, but even his favorite anchor Liu is an employee of Zhou Dongsheng.
Normally, he and a big boss like Zhou Dongsheng would be like two parallel lines and would not have any contact, but because his sister is also a contracted employee of Zhou Dongsheng, they have a little connection.
However, Li Jiafeng did not expect Zhou Dongsheng to be so approachable and give people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze. This also made Li Jiafeng, who is also a young man, feel a lot more .
As for Zhou Dongsheng, he never had any idea of pretending from the beginning to the end. After all, Zhou Dongsheng did not put himself in the position of a big shot. At best, he was just a "little man" with financial freedom.
Apart from a few hundred million yuan and a few hundred million connections, he doesn't seem to have any outstanding achievements. As for becoming a billionaire, it is just something to be expected in the future.
The two of them came to the parking lot while chatting and laughing, and stood in front of a plain Wuling magic car. Li Jiafeng said a little embarrassedly.
"Boss, we only have this small van. It's convenient for delivering goods during market hours."
Zhou Dongsheng didn't take it seriously, instead he joked casually: "Haven't you heard of the legend of the Wuling magic car that's circulated in the world? This is the most down-to-earth car ."
"Boss, I can't use inertia to drift around the corners, but I can guarantee that I can safely take you to my sister." Li Jiafeng chuckled. He didn't expect that the big boss also knew the legend of the Wuling magic car.
"Let's go, let's go. I'm hungry and can't wait to have a big meal." A joke made the atmosphere more harmonious, and the two got in the car and headed towards the countryside.
The two chatted and laughed all the way, and their relationship became more and more familiar. As the buildings outside the window gradually became fewer and were gradually replaced by mountain and forest scenery, they were getting closer and closer to their destination.
It was not until the Wuling magic car turned into a country road and there seemed to be no way out that the view in front of us suddenly opened up. There were clustered buildings and a village appeared naturally before our eyes.
After the Wuling magic car turned several turns flexibly, it stopped in front of a yard. Zhou Dongsheng, who had watched many videos of Li Jiajia, was naturally familiar with the familiar scene before him.
Is this the paradise in the video? It looks no different from an ordinary farmyard.
But the whole yard is well-maintained, the arrangement of flowers and plants is pleasing to the eye, and there are also unique thatched sheds and swing sets in the yard.
Zhou Dongsheng, who has watched Mu Ziqi's videos, knows very well that they are all handmade by Li Jiajia, and have received a lot of clicks and views, allowing Mu Ziqi's almighty image to gradually penetrate into the hearts of the audience.
After all, before this, the audience thought that Mu Ziqi was just a food video maker, but they didn’t expect that her hands-on skills were so excellent.
Just a glimpse of this carefully decorated courtyard is enough to show how much thought the owner has put into it. If it were to be made into some kind of internet-famous homestay, it would probably attract many men and women who "yearn" for farm life.
"Sister, I've got the boss back!" Li Jiafeng shouted at the top of his voice.
"Okay! Boss, wash your hands, we can eat soon! Brother, go clean the table and ask grandma to eat together!" Li Jiajia's voice was also heard from inside.
The guest should follow the host's wishes and adapt to local customs. Zhou Dongsheng washed his hands at the faucet in the yard. The sounds of birds and insects could be heard from time to time, which was very pleasant.
Although Zhou Dongsheng also came from a rural background, with the accelerated process of urbanization and industrialization, Guzhen was fortunate enough to become a "pig" standing at the forefront of the times.
Although Guzhen, with its numerous factories, is still a rural area in name, it has already left behind the fact of being a rural area in all aspects.
Therefore, although Zhou Dongsheng is a rural person, his understanding of rural life basically comes only from the difficult times that his parents talked about when they recalled the good and bad times.
In Zhou Dongsheng's view, this is also an inevitable development of the times. In order to achieve economic development first and make life better, sacrifices must always be made.
In the course of the times, many young generations have grown up directly in cities and towns. From birth to growth, they have almost no access to the pastoral life that their parents were accustomed to.
Therefore, in addition to the difficulty in empathizing with the pastoral life, in the favorable environment that our parents believe in, it is inevitable that we yearn for the pastoral life that we have never experienced, and endow it with a "spiritual utopia"-like existence.
Just as the development of fashion is a circle, the development of the times is also a circle, from rural to urban development, and then to encouraging people to return to their hometowns to start businesses.
And this may be one of the reasons why Mu Ziqi can achieve such brilliant achievements.
It happened to cater to the hidden needs of the market, and with the arrival of the trend of the times, it suddenly became a lucky person who soared to the sky.
"It's time to eat, boss!" Just when Zhou Dongsheng suddenly had an epiphany and was daydreaming, a crisp voice woke him up. When he turned around, he saw a pretty face with a smile.
