Chapter 176 Lin Zhaomu

“It’s winter vacation, why aren’t you back yet?”

On November 20th, Lin Zhibai received a call from his mother. Her mother seemed a little unhappy because Lin Zhibai had already gone on winter vacation but still lived in Shui Yuntian.

 “I’ll be back soon.”

Lin Zhibai didn’t dare to confront his mother.

 Staying in Shuiyuntian Villa is mainly for the convenience of live streaming.

However, Chu Ci doesn't need to live broadcast for the time being. After all, Lin Zhibai is different from those real anchors. He does not rely on live broadcasts to make a living. Liyu Live cannot ask him to broadcast for a certain number of hours every month. Jiang Cheng has already told his boss about this. Li said that Chu Ci would come over when he needs to live broadcast again.

 “It’s crazy, because at the end of this month…”

Mom's voice gradually became softer, "I'm going to Xicheng Manor at the end of the month. The old man is celebrating his birthday, and our whole family will have to go there."

 The old man is going to celebrate his birthday?

Lin Zhibai was silent. Every time he heard "Xicheng Manor", it brought back very bad memories for him.

 "Xiao Hei..." My mother's voice was a little weak.

Lin Zhibai didn’t want his mother to worry, so he asked: “What’s the 30th day of the month?”

Mom quickly said: "Yes, yes, the birthday banquet starts at nine in the morning and ends at three in the afternoon. There is also a family banquet in the evening..."

Mom said carefully.

“Then go.” Lin Zhibai smiled and said, “After all, you said this last year.”

 Mom laughed dryly.

Lin Zhibai returned to East Lake Villa that night.

Unexpectedly, on this night, Jiang Cheng suddenly called, "Boss, I received an invitation letter from Shinhwa Group."

"oh?"

Lin Zhibai asked: "Invitation to the longevity banquet of directors of Shinhwa Group?"

"Yes."

 “Then you come, I will go when the time comes.”

Lin Zhibai was not too surprised. Kunpeng is now at its peak. It has successfully extended its life after taking over the video website, and recently invested in the field of live broadcasting and achieved great success.

  As the representative of Kunpeng.

Jiang Cheng is already qualified to enter the birthday banquet, the highest level in the Qinzhou entertainment industry.

“Okay, what do you need me to do then?”

 “No, just feel free to do whatever you want, it should be quite lively by then.”

Jiang Cheng now knows his boss better than himself, and he can clearly tell that his boss is not very interested.

Perhaps it’s not just a lack of interest.

 There seemed to be some mockery and some inexplicable emotions in the boss's voice.

 This situation is rare.

Jiang Cheng’s impression of the boss never showed such emotions.

It seems that the rumors are true. It is said that the boss was bullied by a group of cousins ​​a few years ago, resulting in a serious head injury. This is the gossip that Jiang Cheng accidentally heard from people in the circle some time ago. Combined with the boss's constant targeting The behavior of Lin Gong, Lin Liu and others...

Take a deep breath.

Jiang Cheng said: "Boss, I heard some rumors about you."

“It’s pretty close.” Lin Zhibai seemed to know what Jiang Cheng wanted to say. He had been in contact with many people in the industry, so it was normal for him to hear this gossip.

"I see."

The king worries about his ministers’ labor, and the king humiliates his ministers to death.

Jiang Cheng knows who gave him everything he has.

 his eyes twitched slightly, Kunpeng would make those people pay the price.

 …

 The news that Lin Zhaomu, chairman of Shinhwa Group, will hold a birthday banquet has only been circulated within the industry, and not much is known to the outside world.

In the entire Qinzhou entertainment circle, those who are qualified to participate in this birthday banquet will definitely be the most powerful people in the Qinzhou capital circle.

At this time, Xicheng Manor.

 In an antique study room.

An old man was splashing ink.

 A moment later, eight large and vigorous characters appeared on the white paper on the table:

　　"Just do it if you can. If you can't do it, stop it."

The old man has a calm and majestic appearance, not tall but tall, with deep nasolabial wrinkles on his face, and a pair of old and deep eyes behind the lenses.

 “Secretary Kim.”

 After writing this line, the old man's deep and powerful voice sounded: "Frame this picture and hang it in front of the family banquet hall."

"I see."

 Secretary Jin is fifty years old this year and has been working with the elderly for more than 20 years.

And the old man who can instruct Secretary Jin to do things is naturally the owner of Xicheng Manor and even the entire Shinhwa Group.

 Lin Zhaomu.

 Soon a servant came in and took away the calligraphy.

  Secretary Jin looked at those words and roughly sensed some of the chairman's psychology.

Lin Zhaomu took off his glasses and placed them neatly on the table. Even the glasses cloth was folded meticulously. He spoke again between movements:

 “Tell me, what’s new recently?”

“There is a problem with a certain fruit drink brand that Lin Gong is responsible for, but the impact is not that big. On the other hand, Lin Liu’s problem is a bit serious.”

  Secretary Jin reported on Lin Liu’s situation in detail.

Lin Zhaomu listened to Secretary Jin’s report with no emotion or anger on his expression. Most of the time, the old man had a serious expression.

"A few days ago, she asked the department's top singers to compete with Zhang Xiyang for the Spring Festival Gala..." "Zhang Xiyang, I remember that my little grandson wrote several songs for him, right?"

“Yes, Master Bai seems to admire this singer very much, and the company’s assessment also believes that Zhang Xiyang is expected to become the king of singers next year.”

 “That child...still hates me?”

Lin Zhaomu spoke, and the emotion in his voice was strange for the first time.

Secretary Jin sighed in his heart and said with a smile: "How could Mr. Bai hate you? He has been smart since he was a child and knows your difficulties."

"I know."

Lin Zhaomu said: "He has resentment in his heart, otherwise he would not have come to see me for so many years. From the second generation to the third generation of the Lin family, everyone is trying to please me, but they are the father and son. After that incident, no one will come to see me again." I haven’t even stepped through the gate of this manor.”

 “Young Master Bai is injured…”

"Isn't it better? I haven't seen him come to see me since he is better. He is just as angry as his father, but he is much better than his father..."

 Secretary Jin was silent.

Lin Zhaomu walked slowly towards the window, picked up a pair of scissors next to him, and carefully pruned the branches and leaves.

“This potted plant is growing well, but the branches and leaves need to be pruned, otherwise they will ruin the overall beauty.”

Secretary Jin seemed to hear the implication of Lin Zhaomu’s words.

“There are a few vacant positions within the group. You see…”

 “Give her another chance.”

When he cut a certain branch, Lin Zhaomu paused slightly and said, "If you can't win the Spring Festival Gala, just take her down as the supervisor."

"yes."

 Secretary Jin nodded respectfully, and then said with a smile: "But there is something before I can tell you. Zhang Xiyang got a new song from Master Bai."

"oh?"

Lin Zhaomu actually smiled, even though the corners of his mouth were just slightly raised, "My little grandson is very productive."

 “Young Master Bai is a genius.” Secretary Jin praised him.

Back then, Secretary Jin just entered Xicheng Manor and watched the chairman's grandchildren grow up little by little.

The third generation of the Lin family, the most naughty and sensible, is perhaps the only child who treats himself as an elder rather than a subordinate.

 “This child must have been injured on the left side of his brain.”

"Yes."

“His musical talent was pretty good when he was a child, but he was just a general genius.”

Lin Zhaomu said thoughtfully: "I heard a friend in the medical field say such a theory. Geniuses have super memory, imagination, innovation, inspiration and intuition. Most of these abilities come from the right brain. Therefore, the right brain is also called the genius brain, and there is a possibility that injuries to the left brain will stimulate the development of the right brain..."

 Secretary Jin was stunned, "What does the chairman think?"

Lin Zhaomu said: "This should be the most reasonable explanation. A child who is still in his sophomore year in college has not learned much about music but has the potential to be a great musician."

"K?"

 Secretary Jin was very surprised when he just learned about the young master's achievements in the music industry, but he was just surprised. The chairman tried to find out the reason and the causal relationship.

 “Maybe not.”

Lin Zhaomu put down the scissors and sat down on the chair. He was a little old and his legs and feet would feel uncomfortable after standing for a long time. "After all, this child has been much better than his peers since he was a child, just like the little girl named Su Chan in Tianguang."

 Mentioned Su Chan.

Lin Zhaomu seemed to think of something, "She looked down on Xiao Gong and refused the marriage, right?"

Secretary Jin said: "Yes, but if the chairman insists, of course this marriage can be achieved..."

 “Secretary Kim.”

Lin Zhaomu waved his hand, his voice seemed a little tired, "Pressing the junior's head and asking him to marry someone, my father did it to me once, and I did it to Lin Dong once, but the results were not good, either. let it go."

"yes."

 Secretary Jin was sensible and didn't say much.

But maybe it’s because he’s getting older and his personality is not so cold anymore.

 At the beginning, the chairman was very angry because of his disobedience to Lin Dong’s younger son——

 That year.

Lin Dong has reached the age of marriage. He is a son of a wealthy family and fell in love with a female star who debuted in an idol drama.

 This is indifferent.

When he was young, the young man from a wealthy family had some of the dissolute spirit of playing in the world. It was no problem for him to fall in love with a female star and have fun.

Who knows.

When Lin Zhaomu asked Lin Dong to marry a well-matched young lady, Lin Dong actually refused and insisted on marrying the female star.

Our young ladies don’t want to marry an actor?

Lin Zhaomu was naturally extremely angry and directly dismissed Lin Dong from his position in the company.

Lin Dong didn't care, so he just stood still with Lin Zhaomu.

 In the end, Lin Dong succeeded and he married the female star.

 And that female star is Lin Zhibai’s mother.

 Just this confrontation also made Lin Zhaomu extremely disappointed with Lin Dong and stopped caring about him.

 It wasn’t until the female star gave birth to two sons that the relationship between father and son eased slightly.

 But later Lin Zhibai was injured, Lin Dong went crazy in Xicheng Manor, and the relationship between father and son dropped to a freezing point. Even the little grandson Lin Zhaomu liked very much had opinions about him.

 And this time.

 The chairman held a birthday banquet.

Since Lin Dong’s family is willing to come over, and the chairman seems to have looked past those past events, maybe that will be a turning point in some relationships?

 Secretary Jin couldn't help but think about it.

　　——————

ps: Seventieth birthday, changed to eighty birthday, because if the old man is seventy years old, many people's ages are a little inappropriate, and eighty will be more reasonable.
