The Pentium Era - South to North

When Xiaoli called Zhang Chen, Zhang Chen was on the plane from Beijing to Nanjing.

He likes to sit by the window and look out the window. You can't see the ground even at a height of 10,000 meters. When you fly, the clouds and sky outside are the same. They break away from the fetters of the human world and ignore the ground. Joys and sorrows, separation and reunion, I look as blue as a wash or a dog with white clouds.

Even the map can no longer frame them. Whether it is the sky above the United States or the sky above China, whether it is the sky above Hangzhou or the sky above Beijing, they are all the same. The sky has no regional attributes.

But they are different. Zhang Chen almost never sees the sky outside. It is the same as what he saw before. Compared with the people in the cabin, what he is more interested in and can remember is what is outside the porthole. With the eyes of a painter, he saw a picture that was more surprising and interesting than the splash-ink landscape.

Zhang Chen didn't know whether Zhao Wou-ki and Zhu Dequn liked to look outside like him when they were flying. If they did, it wouldn't be surprising if they could paint such ever-changing paintings.

Zhang Chen stared outside and savored it carefully. He savored how the seemingly identical white clouds showed various shapes. He wanted to understand the subtle differences between white and white. Difference, he felt that it was this subtle difference that made the clouds change into different shapes.

Unfortunately, many times, before he had time to see clearly, the shape of the clouds had already changed. Zhang Chen wanted to capture their changes, but there was always no way.

Compared with outside the window, Zhang Chen seemed numb and slow to everything in the cabin.

Zhang Chen remembered that once, he sat down in his seat and looked outside as before. The plane had not taken off yet. He looked at the flat luggage cart on the tarmac, pulling a bag of luggage and a bag of luggage.

Looking at the runway in the distance, a plane was landing. The moment the tires touched the ground, the whole plane shivered as if it had been burned. It jumped up, then fell back to the ground and began to speed along the runway. .

From the corner of his eye, he saw his neighbor coming, a woman wearing a big mask, and the smell of perfume from far and near also told him this.

Zhang Chen looked out the window. The woman sat down. What made Zhang Chen feel a little strange was her body language. She was like a rabbit, curling up her body, observing the surroundings alertly, and looking at him.

Zhang Chen continued to look out the window with interest, waiting for the plane to take off. Zhang Chen liked to watch the moment the plane took off. The whole earth suddenly tilted up, and the person fell back, leaning against the back of the chair. The earth Retreating during the tilt becomes irreversible, just like parting from a person. Even if you stretch out your hand, there is nothing you can do to prevent the distance from happening.

For a moment, Zhang Chen suddenly felt extremely sad. He remembered that in the ward, even through protective gloves, he could feel Xiao Zhao's hands getting colder and colder. His heart tightened, and he heard a The voice kept shouting, no, no, no... Xiao Zhao's hands were still getting colder and colder.

Zhang Chen felt very uneasy and anxious, but his hands did not stop. He tried to calm himself down and kept drawing the Zhang Chen brand watch.

Zhang Chen now knows that as long as he stops painting at that time, sadness will definitely overwhelm him and he will burst into tears, but he vaguely feels that as long as he bursts into tears, he is accepting that Xiao Zhao is gone. He was unwilling to accept this fact, so he kept painting without crying or stopping.

I'm still drawing pictures for you. How can you leave, my dear?

Zhang Chen looked out the window. He felt that his eyes were wet, which made him a little embarrassed and turned his head.

The plane flew higher and higher, and the sky outside the window finally calmed down his mood. The woman sitting next to him took off her mask and looked at Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen was still looking out the window. Even when the flight attendant came to deliver drinks, Zhang Chen didn't turn around, he just asked, "Sir, do you need anything?" Zhang Chen stretched out his hand to indicate that he didn't need it.

The woman was probably a little curious and looked at Zhang Chen more and more frequently. Later, she simply fell her head on the pillow, turned her face sideways, closed her eyes slightly, and pretended to be asleep, but she was actually still watching. Looking at Zhang Chen's back, she wondered that this man kept looking out the window. What was he looking at? What was there worth seeing outside the window?

What's even weirder is that he doesn't even notice that he is sitting next to him. Doesn't he know that he looks much better than outside the window? How many people were vying to get a glimpse of themselves.

The plane was about to land, and Zhang Chen became excited. When the plane landed, just like when it took off, the ground would tilt for a moment, but the angle of tilt was not as large as when it took off.

Zhang Chen looked back hard. He liked to see the wings of the plane tremble when it touched the ground. That tremor was very thin and fragile. Zhang Chen was always worried that the wings would break.

Zhang Chen felt that the woman next door looked at him and sighed with disappointment, then put on a mask. The van that picked up their first-class passengers was waiting for them at the bottom of the gangway. Zhang Chen was the last one to get on the bus. The woman was sitting at the door. Zhang Chen took a look at her when he went up and found that her eyes were very beautiful.

Zhang Chen walked over and sat in the last row.

It wasn't until he arrived at the exit that he saw many people, including boys and girls, surrounding the exit. Many of them were holding signs. The woman sitting next to Zhang Chen waved to them as she walked. Zhang Chen then He thought that the woman who had been sitting next to him on the plane was the most popular star at the moment.

Zhang Chen couldn't help but smile, and then felt a little sorry. Such a big star was sitting next to him, and he didn't respond. Isn't it inappropriate?

But I don’t know, I’m already looking at the clouds. Even if I know, we have nothing to say, so we might as well just look at the clouds.

After arriving at Lukou Airport and getting on the shuttle bus, Zhang Chen turned on his mobile phone and saw several messages pouring in. Zhang Chen saw that Xiaoli had called him and quickly called back. Xiaoli said anxiously on the phone:

"Boss, trial orders from several factories have been arranged. We have looked at their production capacity and workmanship. It should not be a big problem. As long as there are no problems after the trial order, we will forget about all orders from Target. It will probably be delayed. It will return to normal in three or four days, and Qiaoxin has already communicated with Jessica."

Zhang Chen said yes, thank you for your hard work.

"Boss, the order we placed for them is much lower than the price we placed for Zhao Zhigang and the others. Qiaoxin said that we have made a lot of money this time."

"It's better to focus on quality and don't squeeze the factory too much," Zhang Chen said quickly.

"No, the factories are very happy to give them this price. They feel that doing our orders is more cost-effective than doing other companies' orders. Qiaoxin said that if the profit margin is larger, we will have more room. If the price of intermediate raw materials increases, even if we don’t need to adjust the price with Target, we can still adjust the price appropriately for the factory, and the factory will be crazy about it.”

"Okay, that's your arrangement." Zhang Chen said with a smile.

At the exit, Li Yang came to pick him up at the airport. Li Yang asked Zhang Chen, should we go to the city first, or should we go directly to Lishui?

Zhang Chen said to go to Lishui first.

Li Yang said yes, I will contact you right away.

…

Zhang Chen went to Wuhan from Nanjing, and then returned to Hangzhou from Wuhan. Tan Shuzhen picked him up at the airport. Zhang Chen saw Tan Shuzhen and asked strangely, why is it you and not Xiao Wu?

"Xiao Wu is at the construction site." Tan Shuzhen said, "Why, I came to pick you up and you still get disliked."

"Don't dare." Zhang Chen said with a smile, "I think you are too famous. How dare I bother you to come and pick me up in person?"

"Next time you come to pick me up and just come back." Tan Shuzhen said, "There is no other way. We two lonely old men and lonely old ladies can only depend on each other. Zhang Chen, when you are not here, I really can't even eat dinner every day." It gives me a headache no matter where I go to eat.”

Zhang Chen remembered and went back south to Yongcheng. Lao Tan and Mrs. Tan also went to Yongcheng. Tan Shuzhen was really alone in Hangcheng.

Zhang Chen said okay, don't be miserable, I'll eat Japanese food with you tonight, that's all.

"It's really miserable if we don't sell it," Tan Shuzhen said with a bitter face.

After getting in the car, Tan Shuzhen asked Zhang Chen how he was doing. Zhang Chen told him that of course it was all smooth sailing, and the places in Beijing, Nanjing and Wuhan were all settled.

"Are we going to start work?" Tan Shuzhen asked.

"Of course, if we start construction now, we can attract investment by the end of the year. Otherwise, it will be delayed for a year. Besides, Wu Zhaohui and the others are still rushing behind the scenes."

"With so many construction sites, can you handle it?" Tan Shuzhen asked.

"Okay, ours is simple. It's different from yours. In addition to the big frame house, it's just a cement floor. During the construction stage, it's enough for someone to come over and take a look from time to time." Zhang Chen said, "At the current construction site in Tianjin, Xiao Jin is there. Keep an eye on it, Erhuo mainly focuses on Beijing. Anyway, we have a branch in Beijing, so it’s very convenient to travel between Beijing and Tianjin.”

"You guys are really simple," Tan Shuzhen said.

"Yes, it's mainly about the early stage, and the investment after the construction is completed. After the investment is in place, the later management will be simple, almost the same as your property company." Zhang Chen said, "By the way, say hello, the construction site in Wuhan, You Xu Wenhui will help me take care of it."

Tan Shuzhen said yes.

"Nanjing Li Yang and Qian Fang will help me manage it. What I am in urgent need of is late-stage management personnel." Zhang Chen said.

"Then do you still need to expand?" Tan Shuzhen asked, "Zhang Musheng and Fan Jianguo are also looking for land for you in Hefei and Xiamen."

"Yes, of course I need it. I have to go to Kunming and Chengdu in a few days. Sun Hou asked their branches to help me implement it." Zhang Chen said.

"Aren't you afraid of choking to death?" Tan Shuzhen scolded.

"I'm not afraid. If I don't take the land, I'm afraid I won't be able to take it if I try to take it in the future." Zhang Chen said, "Besides, what are you afraid of if you take the land? It's really not good. Leave it there and build next year. Where is your land reserve? If it is not developed for years, it will be missing a piece of land since it cannot be released."
