Entertainment From Divorce

Tan Yue had just finished reviewing a piece of material when he was interrupted by a call on his cell phone.

"Old Tan, do you want to go play ball downstairs?"

As soon as the call was connected, the voice of promise came from the phone. After studying behind closed doors for a while, he felt as if he was standing up again.

Xu promised to handle the work at hand, but he couldn't sit still in the office, so he thought of going downstairs to play ball as a break.

After sitting in the office for a long time, the brain's reaction sometimes becomes sluggish.

The two of them haven't exchanged skills together for some time.

Every time Xu Nuo feels that he has learned a new technique, he can't wait to compete with Tan Yue.

Tan Yue typed on the keyboard and thought for a moment: "Go downstairs and wait for me. I'll be there in ten minutes."

Tan Yue will not rest before the summary of experience is completed.

"OK! I'll wait for you downstairs." After putting down the phone, Xu Nuo went straight to the gym downstairs.

More than ten minutes later, Tan Yue checked the newly added content. After confirming that there were no problems, he put the computer into sleep mode and came out of the office with a cup in hand.

"Mr. Tan." Chen Ye stood up, thinking he had work arrangements.

"Xiaoye, I'm going to the gym downstairs to play some ball."

"Okay, Mr. Tan." Chen Ye rolled his eyes: "Mr. Tan, can I go with you to have a look?"

Chen Ye heard many people in the company say that Tan Yue's skills were very good, but he had never seen it with his own eyes.

This time I heard that Tan Yue was going to play ball, so I wanted to go over and have a look.

"No problem, let's go together!" The two got into the elevator and Tan Yue asked, "Xiao Ye, have you ever learned about billiards?"

"I know a little bit about the basic rules, but I don't know much about playing."

‘Ding Dong’.

Tan Yue and Chen Ye got off the elevator and came to the gym on the first floor.

Tan Yue joked: "Fat man, you are practicing secretly here."

Xu Nuo made a "cut" sound and said: "Do I need to practice secretly to beat you? Today I will show you the new pole technique I learned recently. Beating you will be like drinking tea."

In the ten minutes or so before Tan Yue arrived, Xu Nuo practiced some new things he learned online in advance. He performed well and was very confident in winning today's game.

"Just have confidence." Tan Hehe nodded with a smile.

He has long been accustomed to this kind of rhetoric. He always loses the ball but always speaks hard.

Xu Nuo said proudly: "Mr. Tan, you have to be more careful today. I am not joking with you."

Tan Yue ignored it, put the cup aside, walked straight to the place where the clubs were placed, and found the clubs he had been using.

"let us start."

Promise to swing the tee shot.

In the blink of an eye, the first two sentences ended, and Xu Nuo said proudly: "How about it? Mr. Tan, just say that I will win today."

The winners of the first two games were promised.

When two people play, it is usually a best-of-five game. As long as they promise to win the next game, they can win.

"Mr. Tan, I will beat you three to zero today." With such a huge advantage, Promise's confidence reached an unprecedented height.

Tan Yue calmly replied: "Come on!"

However, the third game did not result in victory as Xu Nuo imagined, but Tan Yue won easily.

"I won't let you in the fourth round, I'm going to take it seriously."

Tan Yue regained his touch and still won the fourth game easily.

Xu Nuo scratched his hair, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart. He felt that the scene in front of him seemed familiar, and whispered in a low voice: "I won't lose again."

After the fifth game started, Xu Nuo made many mistakes because he was a little anxious. Tan Yue won.

Xu Nuo instantly felt that his body was being hollowed out, and he said in frustration: "Why is this the result again?"

I thought I was sure of victory, but in the end I lost.

During this period, Xu Nuo learned a lot from online teaching videos, and he clearly felt that he was making progress.

Tan Yue patted Xu Nuo's shoulder gently: "Playing billiards requires talent!"

"You" promised to be blocked and unable to say a word.

Even though I made progress, I still lost. Only talent can explain everything.

What's more, Tan Yue has basically never watched billiards instruction videos, and has no extra time to practice.

Xu Nuo sighed: "Okay, you are a talented player."

While the two were playing, many employees gathered around.

"Mr. Tan's skills are getting better and better!"

"It's so miserable that Deputy Director Xu loses every time. I feel a little sorry for him."

"Mr. Tan is really amazing. He can win three games in a row."

"When Deputy Director Xu won two games in a row, I thought he would win today. It seems I was overthinking it."

Standing in the crowd, Chen Ye was amazed. Today he saw with his own eyes Tan Yue's billiards skills.

Tan Yue is really talented in playing billiards, and he can win back even though he is so far behind.

Chen Ye left the gym first, he still had work to do.

People who are familiar with it all know that two people will play five games and then start to disperse. Some go back to continue working out, and some go back to work.

Tan Yue put the club back to its original position, picked up the cup and drank tea, thinking about the next work arrangements.

He had promised to keep losing before, so losing again today would have no impact on him. After putting down the clubs, he asked: "When will we have time to have a drink together?"

Xu Nuo thought for a moment and suddenly realized that the two of them hadn't drank for a while.

"Okay, tomorrow night."

"Really?" Tan Yue was interrupted by Xu Nuo before he finished speaking.

Because Tan Yue has been busy with the release of the movie, he has never had time.

Chen Ziyu also did not allow Tan Yue to drink.

Xu Nuo planned to ask casually, but he didn't expect that he actually had time.

Xu Nuo realized that Tan Yue still had something to say, so he laughed and said, "Speak first."

"Mr. Wu just came back from abroad today. I plan to pick him up tomorrow. You can go with me. You are all familiar with me anyway. Let's have a drink together."

"That's it." Xu Nuo muttered, and then asked, "Is there anyone else?"

If there were only two people, Tan Yue and Wu Gong, he wouldn't be too embarrassed to go. After all, he was there to support Wu Gong.

"And Ma Guoliang."

"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow." Hearing Arima Guoliang's name, Xu Nuo immediately made a decision, and then asked tentatively: "Do you want to take Zhou Can with you?"

Three people are good drinking buddies. Two people are gone, how can one person be left behind?

Tan Yue thought about it and said, "Let's call Zhou Can, Jiao Cheng and Zhang Wenhua. Let's get together. There will be a lot of people and it will be fun to support Wu Gong."

Wu Gong has been away from the company for such a long time, but everyone can still chat when they get together.

Xu Nuo nodded wildly and agreed with Tan Yue's view.

In fact, for him, as long as he can drink, it is enough.

"Let's go back to work."

Although he lost in billiards today, Xu Nuo looked particularly excited at the thought of having a drink tomorrow.

Not long after Tan Yue returned to the office, Chen Ziyu knocked on the door and came in.

"Ah Yue, what can we eat when we go home tonight?" As he was about to get off work, Chen Ziyu remembered that there was no food at home.

"I'll buy some food online later in the evening."

After saying this, Tan Yue opened the grocery shopping app on his mobile phone. Chen Ziyu looked behind him: "Buy some of this, I haven't eaten for a long time."

Tan Yue said softly "Hmm" and added it to the shopping cart.

"Buy some more of this."

A few more of Chen Ziyu’s favorite dishes were added to the shopping cart.

Chen Ziyu said: "That's it. It won't be fresh after being kept for a long time."

Pick a delivery time and dinner is in order.

Tan Yue put down his cell phone and said: "Ziyu, I plan to meet Wu Gong tomorrow night. I have called Xu Nuo, Ma Guoliang, Zhou Can, Jiao Cheng and Zhang Wenhua. Can we go over for a meal then?"

Chen Ziyu shook his head: "Forget it, I won't go to the fun with you. You guys can still drink together. If I followed, everyone might not be able to let go and not have fun."

Hearing that there were familiar people at the dinner party, Chen Ziyu knew that drinking was inevitable. The Jie Feng Banquet is meant to be a lively event, but due to my status, the few people at the dinner party will definitely be restrained.

"Okay." Since Chen Ziyu didn't want to go, Tan Yue didn't force it.

Chen Ziyu reminded: "Don't drink too much tomorrow night."

Thinking of the names of these people, she could imagine that the reception banquet tomorrow night would be another fierce battle, especially with Xu Nuo, Ma Guoliang, and Zhou Can, the company's famous drinking buddies.

"Don't worry, I won't drink too much." Tan Yue was still a little confident in his ability to control his drinking.

The next day, six o'clock in the afternoon.

Tan Yue came out of Chen Ziyu's office and prepared to go to Shunli Shanshui Manor. He would only get off work on time if something happened at night.

Tan Yue came downstairs and saw the promise waving at him.

"Mr. Tan!" Several people greeted him one after another.

Tan Yue asked: "Is everyone here?"

Xu Nuo patted his chest: "Don't worry while I do the work, and Teacher Ma will be down soon."

Tan Yue looked at Wu Gong and asked, "Mr. Wu, how are you doing with your rest?"

Wu Gong's spirit was obviously much better than yesterday, but he still looked a little tired: "There is no problem anymore."

Xu Nuo suddenly said: "Teacher Ma is here."

Ma Guoliang trotted to the car: "Sorry, I was delayed by something just now."

Tan Yue said: "The time is just right, let's set off."

The seven people took two cars and arrived at Shunli Shanshui Manor more than an hour later.

"Mr. Tan." Zhang Leke personally welcomed Tan Yue's arrival.

Tan Yue said: "Let me introduce, this is Zhang Laike, the owner of Shunli Shanshui Manor."

After all, today is a reception banquet for only seven people. It is different from previous gatherings. There are many people and it is not convenient to introduce them to each other.

Most of them are public figures, and Zhang Leke is not familiar with them. Only Xu Nuo and Wu Gong are not familiar with them.

Tan Yue also focused on introducing the two of them.

Zhang Leke joked: "If everyone knew that so many celebrities came to the manor today, my small manor would definitely be overcrowded."

Although there is some exaggeration in it, with the popularity of these people, it is possible.

Several people walked toward the restaurant while talking and laughing.

Tan Yue and Zhang Laike were walking in front, while Wu Gong and others were admiring the scenery in the manor behind.

It's past seven o'clock and the sun has not completely disappeared.

Xu Nuo sighed: "The scenery here is really nice!"

This was his first time to come to Shun Shun Shanshui Manor. He had heard people from the film and TV drama department mention this place frequently before, but today he saw it with his own eyes.

Ma Guoliang pointed to a forest and said, "This place seems to have been recently planted. I remember it wasn't there when I came here last time."

"Teacher Ma is right." Zhang Laike said with a smile: "That is a maple forest. You can come and have a look in autumn."

In autumn, the scenery in the manor is a bit monotonous, so this area has been re-planned.

Everyone nodded and continued walking.

Twenty minutes later, the group arrived at the door of the restaurant.

"Mr. Tan, I won't disturb your dinner party. Please inform me anytime if you have anything."

"Excuse me, Mr. Zhang."

After Zhang Laike left, several people were led by the waiter to a private room with good privacy.

Tan Yue asked Chen Ye to contact Shunli Shanshui Manor in advance.

The private room is very spacious, and there is a floor-to-ceiling window. The scenery in the manor is unobstructed, and you can also see the sun that is about to set.

"This room looks more upscale than the Tianling Hotel!" Xu Nuo glanced at the decoration in the private room and couldn't find any adjectives to express his feelings.

Several other people's feelings were similar to Xu's promise. After all, when they came here before, the entire crew had dinner together, and they had never been to the private room of Shunli Shanshui Manor.

After several people sat down, Tan Yue asked the waiter to start serving the dishes, and of course the white wine was also indispensable.

"Mr. Tan, this is the last dish."

In a blink of an eye, the table in the private room was filled with dishes.

"Okay, thank you!"

After the waiter went out, he saw Tan Yue put down his chopsticks and picked up his wine glass, and everyone else also picked up their glasses.

Tan Yue said: "Today's meal is to welcome Mr. Wu. During this time, he has been busy abroad for movie promotion. Thank you for your hard work. Let's toast Mr. Wu with this glass of wine."

A glass of wine.

Wu Gongdao: "It's all part of the job. Although it's a bit hard, seeing that our company's movies can achieve such good results, it's all worth the hard work."

At this time, Xu Nuo took on the role of pouring wine.

"'The Truman Show' is our company's first film to be released simultaneously around the world. This time we have accumulated a lot of experience for future overseas promotion work."

A few people were chatting and drinking.

Ma Guoliang picked up the wine glass: "I would like to toast Mr. Wu with this glass of wine. Thank you for your hard work in promoting the film during this period."

With Ma Guoliang taking the lead, everyone began to toast Wu Gong. After all, he was the protagonist tonight.

After Zhang Wenhua finished drinking, he sat down and was the last to toast Wu Gong.

At this time, Wu Gong was already getting drunk. He picked up the newly filled wine glass and said, "Mr. Tan, I'd like to toast you this glass of wine. For a movie to have such good results, it's not enough to just rely on publicity. The audience can see it." Or the movie itself. It’s amazing to be able to make a movie that’s a global hit.”

Wu Gong raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup.

Watching Tan Yue rest for a while, Ma Guoliang also picked up his glass of wine: "Thank you, Mr. Tan, for letting me be the protagonist of this movie and giving me this opportunity."

Everyone then started to toast Tan Yue.
