The Ace Producer

Ye Zhen naturally didn't know this.

At this time, she was sitting at the end of the corridor of the research room with her waist bent, looking out the window, waiting for her mentor, Professor Lin, who was also the dean of the Academy of Sciences, to get off work so that she could go in, pack her things and go home.

She insisted on applying for a job at Rongcheng Entertainment despite the objections of the Academy of Sciences, even though she did not resign. She even skipped work today.

You can imagine how ugly Professor Lin's face would be.

However, Ye Zhen, whose eyes were lingering outside the window, seemed to have forgotten all this at this time. She was concentrating on the workers under the overpass. They were busy dismantling the billboard endorsed by the late actor Ye Yi. Every time they removed an LED When the lamp was turned on, part of Ye Yi's smiling face dimmed, and then slowly, slowly disappeared in the dark night with the vast sea of ​​people.

No one cares.

Ye Zhen took out her mobile phone, moved to the window sill, pursed her lips and showed a smile, and took a photo with the remaining billboards from a distance.

"Uh-huh -" After Professor Lin was busy for a while, he heard that Ye Zhen was back. He came out with great momentum, but he didn't see her after standing for a long time, so he had to make a sound to increase his presence.

Ye Zhen put away her phone, stood up politely and said, "Professor Lin."

"Well," Professor Lin said angrily, "Come in." After saying that, he turned around and paced back to the research room.

Ye Zhen followed and walked in. Professor Lin put on his reading glasses and began to rummage through the things on the table. He said, "How was the interview today? Didn't you embarrass me by going out?"

"without."

"Um."

The atmosphere became silent again. The only sound in the research room was the sound of Professor Lin shaking down the documents. Ye Zhen cleared her throat and was about to speak when Professor Lin suddenly said: "I found it," and handed it to her, "Take it, I asked Someone did it for you."

It was a letter of appointment to reserve a position and be assigned to Rongcheng Enterprise for cooperative research. Ye Zhen took it, raised her head in surprise, and heard Professor Lin say: "I know that young people are not as patient as we are. The world is so big. I want to Go out and have a look, just go, I hope you will be willing to come back then, alas~"

Ye Zhen held the letter of appointment with both hands and bowed to him: "Thank you, Professor."

"Um."

"Then Professor, I'm going to pack my things."

"...Huh? Wait," Professor Lin clasped his hands behind his back, feeling heavy about farewell, when he saw his beloved disciple turning around and planning to leave, "Is it gone now?"

"Professor, is there anything else you can do?"

"Having said that, you have no intention of opening up your heart and telling me why you have to leave?"

Ye Zhen said softly: "I entered Huada when I was thirteen years old. At that time, teacher, you welcomed us on the podium. You praised us as geniuses. You said that all people are born equal, but the combination of a person's EQ and IQ is what we commonly call it. Things that are 'smart' are not equal. God wants us to lead the world to move forward, so we are smart people. Therefore, being smart is not something to be proud of, but a responsibility." Her words After a pause, "Teacher, students will remember what you said. No matter where they are, they will not embarrass you."

Looking at his beloved disciple's handsome figure as he walked away, Professor Lin emotionally took off his reading glasses and wiped his tears, sighing: "This child, even though he usually doesn't like to talk, really talks, really, he deserves to be taught by me. of!"

As for when his wife asked about it after returning home, Professor Lin realized that he had been fooled into changing the topic and jumped in anger.

Ye Zhen carried the cardboard box she packed away from the research room and walked back home on the college road she had walked for ten years. Her home is at the other end of Xueyuan Road, a medium-sized Huaiyang noodle restaurant - the first and second floors are the store, and the third floor is home. She came to Beijing to study at university when she was young, and her parents were naturally worried. The couple closed the restaurant in their hometown and opened a noodle shop in this unfamiliar place, just to take care of her.

Fortunately, after ten years of doing it,

The noodle shop business is getting better and better, and there are many of them in this university town. Firstly, it naturally benefits from the good reputation of the noodle shop, and secondly, it has something to do with Ye Zhen, the "god of learning". Chinese people always have a feeling of "happy" and "lucky" in their bones, so before the exam day, there will be a long queue in front of Ye Zhen's noodle shop, filled with "pilgrims" from hundreds of miles away. ".

Today was another scene like this. When Ye Zhen passed by, she asked the clerk who was maintaining order: "Why are there so many people? Isn't it only March?" There are usually no exams at the beginning of school.

Without waiting for the clerk to answer, several students chirped: "We have to take the National Computer Ranking Examination, which is very important."

Someone with sharp eyes asked: "Are you the senior sister?"

"Please bless me!" He said as if he was praying to the great god.

"Well," Ye Zhen possessed Professor Lin for a second, waved her hands, and walked into the store, "Come on everyone, as long as you work hard, I believe everyone will achieve good results."

She told these kids ruthlessly that she had never passed the exam. She had always been very kind.

The store was also very crowded. Ye Zhen found her father's fat body in the kitchen and shouted: "Dad, I'm back."

"Hey," the fat dad said loudly as he stroked his apron and wiped his sweat, "Dad made you silky chicken soup and left some vegetables. Zhenzhen, you go upstairs first, and dad will serve it to you right away."

"Oh." Then Ye Zhen hugged something again, walked slowly upstairs, and returned to her room.

Dad came up immediately and used his professional skills to pile a high stack of pots and bowls in front of her. While arranging the dishes, he asked this and that: "How was the interview? What did Professor Lin say? Are you hungry? Come on first." Have a meal."

"After the interview, Professor Lin asked someone to get me a letter of appointment to be stationed in Rongcheng for research, and my position was temporarily retained." Ye Zhen stuffed a piece of chicken into her mouth and said vaguely, "I'm hungry, it's delicious."

"Okay, it's good to keep your position. You'll be guaranteed both advance and retreat. This way your mother will be less angry. You have to thank her teacher properly later... Oh, I need to drink more of this silky chicken soup. The chickens brought from the countryside are very good. To make up for it... you should walk around twice after eating before doing the questions, so as not to accumulate food," he finished talking and wiped his sweat, "Dad went downstairs to get busy."

Ye Zhen said "Hmm" twice with her mouth full of rice and ate hard.

After eating, Ye Zhen obediently followed her father's instructions and walked around the house, thinking about how to pack the books and materials that had been brought back. Her mother came in again with a plate of strawberries, closed the door behind her back, and locked it.

It seemed that the plate of strawberries was used as a prop, not for her to eat. Ye Zhen turned her eyes away from the strawberries and looked at her mother.

Her mother's maiden name was Su Tao. "The Book of Songs" says: "When a peach is young, its leaves are Zhen Zhen." Ye Zhen was named after her. It is said that when she was young, she was also a famous talented girl in the town, and she even published a collection of poems. However, as long as Ye Zhen can remember, she has always been strict.

Su Tao lowered his head and pulled off the strawberry tassels one by one without saying a word. After a while, he actually wiped away tears.

"mom--"

"You still know that I am your mother," Su Tao, as if a switch was pressed, dropped the strawberry in his hand, and his voice suddenly became sharp, "I have worked so hard to raise you so big, but I can't bear to eat or wear anything. I want to give you the best, and have high standards and strict requirements for you, just to prevent you from being underestimated by those people! It’s better for you to give up a good job if you don’t want it, and to join the entertainment industry like him, the kind of entertainment industry Where, girls are so easy to mess around with? Do you want to piss me off to death?"

"Mom, I said, I'm not going to be a star, I'm just going to work, and I will protect myself."

"Work?!" Su Tao jumped even more when he mentioned work, "What a great job at the Academy of Sciences, you have to quit and go to a place like that! Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. Your dad and I He works hard and busy for you every day, but he is not as rich and famous as he is. If he doesn’t do anything, he will attract people, so go ahead! Anyway, you are older now, and I can’t control you!"

"I know it's not easy for you and dad to raise me. Over the years, no matter what you said or what I did, I didn't want to recognize him. Mom, why do you keep saying this?" Ye Zhen looked at her mother with a sad expression, "Others have already gone……"

Thinking of recent events, her mother's face darkened, but she still said: "In short, you don't want me as your mother just because of him."

"Mom, Mom——," Ye Zhen finally couldn't help shouting, "He called me at 1:05," she said, as if tearing her own wounds, tears streaming down her face. Whereabouts, "I didn't pick up. I saw it and didn't pick up on purpose. Mom, I feel bad and want to see him. Isn't this okay?"

Su Tao opened her mouth and seemed to be shocked by her daughter's words. After a while, she said: "Zhenzhen, don't be too sad, mom, mom, I--" She wanted to say something, comfort, excuse, but she realized that behind her daughter These are too pale among the painful cries.

Somewhat hastily, she turned out the door. After a while, she appeared in front of Ye Zhen dragging a big sack of dusty things: "He gave these to you before. Your dad... Lao Feng didn't let me throw them away. I keep it for you, if you miss him, just take a look?"

Ye Zhen raised her head and looked at her steadily, her eyes red and swollen.

Su Tao put down her things unnaturally and retreated out of the room consciously. When she was about to close the door, she suddenly said: "At that time, when we got divorced, he didn't want anything but you, but I didn't agree. He is not suitable for this person. Let’s live a good life, but I still love you very much.”

"..."

Everyone is gone, so what’s the use of talking about it now? What's the use?
