Chapter 1655: First meeting a wild cat, admitting to the wrong door
Zhou Chen really didn't expect that as soon as he traveled to this world, he would see an 'acquaintance', a girl who was 70-80% similar to Cheng Miaomiao.
Meeting familiar faces in different film and television worlds was something he was used to, but meeting similar people so quickly still surprised him, and he felt a sense of joy from the bottom of his heart.
Looking directly at him at such a close distance naturally quickly attracted the other person's attention.
Gao Xinyi looked at Zhou Chen with a slight frown and glared at him in displeasure.
"What are you looking at?"
After being scolded by Gao Xinyi and seeing her "ferocious" attitude, Zhou Chen was not nervous, but instead smiled in response.
"Sorry, you look like a friend of mine."
Hearing this, Gao Xinyi sneered contemptuously: "Your method of getting close is too old-fashioned. I think you are a human being, so why are you making such an excuse?"
Hearing such rude ridicule, Zhou Chen thought that this girl's personality seemed to be even wilder than that of Cheng Miaomiao, yet she was so straightforward in her remarks.
"Just telling the truth."
"Tell the truth?"
Gao Xinyi didn't believe it at all. How could such a coincidence happen in the world? She believed it was Zhou Chen's excuse.
"Then tell me, how do I look like your friend?"
"The looks and personalities are somewhat similar."
"hehe."
Gao Xinyi sneered back again: "Do you still want to say that you have a good relationship with her and you also like her very much, but you are not destined to get together?"
Zhou Chen smiled nonchalantly and continued: "Then you guessed it wrong. We do have a very good relationship. We have been friends for twenty years. We are just good friends. I like her and so does she.
Me, but it’s just the kind of good friends and brothers who can cry together, laugh together, skip classes together, and run away from home together, that’s not love.”
After hearing the last sentence, the ridicule on Gao Xinyi's face slowly faded away. This sentence touched her a little. She has grown up, but she has never had such a good friend.
"Really? Can a relationship between a man and a woman really be as good as you say?"
"Why not? Although it is true that there are few pure friendships between men and women, just because there is less, it does not mean there is none."
Of course there will be friendship between men and women, but the premise is that it must not be a male best friend or a female best friend, that would be disgusting.
Gao Xinyi kept looking at Zhou Chen. When she saw that Zhou Chen's expression was very calm and showed no strange emotions or tone of voice, she actually believed it.
She suddenly stood up, walked to the seat next to Zhou Chen, and sat down, close to Zhou Chen.
"Hey, what's your name?"
"Zhou Chen, the surrounding weeks, the stars of the stars."
"Zhou Chen, your name is quite nice. Do you work or do you do your own business?"
Zhou Chen replied with a smile: "I'm just a homeless person. I come here just to join in the fun and see what's going on in the domestic steel market."
Gao Xinyi looked Zhou Chen up and down and shook his head: "Vagrant? You don't look like it. Although you are younger, you look more like a boss than most people here."
"Yeah?"
Zhou Chen gave her a thumbs up and praised: "Okay, you guessed it right. You have a very unique vision. I am indeed a big boss who hides his secrets."
"Hey, I gave you a few compliments, but you're still out of breath."
Gao Xinyi rolled his eyes. Of course, what she said was true, because Zhou Chen's image and temperament were very good. He was indeed more like a boss than those big-bellied little bosses who talked about business everywhere, but she couldn't be
Praise him in front of Zhou Chen.
"You just said, let's take a look at the domestic steel market. Are you new to this industry, or have you come back from abroad?"
Zhou Chen exclaimed softly and looked surprised. This girl was pretty capable. She was so sharp that she could guess this from his casual words.
"Okay. Seeing how you show your teeth and claws, you are very sharp."
"You're just showing your teeth and claws."
Gao Xinyi retorted dissatisfiedly, but soon asked curiously: "Did you just enter this industry, or did you come back from abroad?"
"Back from abroad."
"You are really a returnee from overseas. Which country did you come back from?"
"America."
Gao Xinyi's eyes shone with light: "How is it there? Is it good? Is it really like what many people say? It is very developed, there is gold everywhere, and the moon is rounder and brighter than ours?"
Seeing that she was leaning in front of him out of curiosity, Zhou Chen stretched out a finger, put it against her forehead, and pushed her back, earning a dissatisfied glare from her.
"What others say is that not all foreign products are good. At this stage, the United States is indeed more developed, but our country is also struggling to catch up..."
"Stop, stop, stop."
Gao Xinyi interrupted Zhou Chen impatiently: "I don't want to ask you this, I just want to ask, is it very free over there?"
Zhou Chen nodded and said: "Yes, it's very free. Free America. Shootings happen every day. People can hold guns over there. When you sleep at night, you have to put a gun under your pillow, because someone may sneak in at night."
If your family doesn’t have a gun, you can’t even protect yourself.”
"Really or not? You lied to me, right?" Gao Xinyi looked unbelieving.
"We just met for the first time today, do you think I need to lie to you? It's very chaotic over there, there are many gangs, and gang members are everywhere. It's best not to go out at night, otherwise you may be robbed at any time."
Although this is only a matter of possibility, it is indeed much more dangerous there than at home.
Gao Xinyi still didn't believe it, but she had never been abroad and couldn't refute Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen changed the topic and asked: "After chatting for so long, I still don't know your name or how to address you?"
"what?"
"You already know my name. As a courtesy, you should also tell me your name."
"Wild cat, that's what everyone else calls me."
"wildcat?"
Zhou Chen smiled: "You can see it, but Mao really hasn't."
"Why, you still want me to give you a meow?"
"It's not impossible."
"It's a beautiful thought."
Gao Xinyi rolled his eyes at Zhou Chen again, but quickly said with a smile: "Zhou Chen, I think you are quite interesting."
"You're quite interesting, really."
"You just said that I am like your good friend, so you can objectively evaluate it, am I more interesting, or is she more interesting? Am I beautiful, or is she beautiful?"
Gao Xinyi's big eyes were full of inquiry, and he was waiting expectantly for Zhou Chen's answer.
Zhou Chen looked at the girl very close to him. They did look very similar, but the girl in front of him had long wavy hair and was wearing a colorful abstract coat. Her style was very different from Cheng Miaomiao, and she looked a little more wild.
.
"You are equally interesting and beautiful."
"Hey, it's boring. You're not sincere at all. You're a grown man, why are you so nagging and afraid to tell the truth?"
"What I'm telling you is the truth. If you really want to say it's not sincere, you should talk about yourself first. Don't say your name and make up a nickname to fool me."
"I'm not making this up. My name is Wildcat. Everyone else calls me that."
The two chatted, and time passed quickly. There were more and more people in the hall. Everyone found their own seats to sit down. Their table was soon filled with people.
At this time, the person presiding over the meeting walked up to the podium, said a few words loudly, interrupted the discussion and exchanges among the participants, and then announced that the leader was on stage to speak.
A middle-aged woman in her forties walked up to the podium. This trade fair was led by her. She was the main person in charge. As soon as she came on stage, there was a burst of applause in the hall, and then it changed.
Be quiet, all eyes turn to the direction of the podium.
Gao Xinyi raised his head and glanced in the direction of the podium, curled his lips, and saw that Zhou Chen had also looked over and was still listening, so he gently touched Zhou Chen.
"What's so nice about this? It's all just stage talk and very boring."
This grumbling tone is very much like an employee venting his dissatisfaction with his boss in private.
"Then what do you find interesting?"
"I think overseas is quite interesting. Why don't you tell me about it?"
"What to talk about?"
"You can talk about anything you want. I'm interested in everything. How about you talk in English?"
"Oh, you still use English, why are you doubting me? I'm very thoughtful."
Zhou Chen found it funny. This wild cat looked carefree and wild, but it was really thoughtful. This was much better than the straight-faced Cheng Miaomiao.
But the next moment, a series of American English came out of his mouth, dozens of words in one breath. Gao Xinyi raised his ears and listened carefully, but he soon became confused.
Although she learned English well, she could only talk on paper after all, and her real-life communication was very lacking. Faced with Zhou Chen's deliberate show of skills, she felt a little dizzy on the spot.
"How's it going? Do you understand?"
Gao Xinyi didn't give Zhou Chen a good look. She only understood the first half, and couldn't react later, but she was still stubborn.
"It's okay."
After saying that, she immediately changed the topic.
"It's really boring to listen to this here, and it's too noisy. Zhou Chen, let's go out and sit for a while?"
"Can."
Zhou Chen also listened to some, but most of them were unsatisfactory content. The more important role of this kind of trade fair is to let people from all parties get to know each other, build relationships, and promote business in the steel market. He is not yet considered a member of this industry.
man, so it doesn't mean much to him.
When Gao Xinyi saw that Zhou Chen agreed, he immediately showed a happy smile, then stood up directly, gave Zhou Chen a hand, and quietly walked outside.
Before walking out of the hall, she grabbed two bottles of beer and took Zhou Chen around to a corridor pavilion outside.
"promise."
Passing a bottle of beer to Zhou Chen, Gao Xinyi sat down on the bench and leaned against the pillar with a comfortable look on his face.
"The environment here is good, unlike inside, which is smoky and smoky."
Zhou Chen asked: "Since you don't like this kind of scene, why did you come?"
Gao Xinyi said: "I didn't want to come here, I just came here to earn a living. I'm a jobless vagrant just like you."
"Yeah?"
Zhou Chen smiled and didn't ask any more questions. He could see the girl's displeasure.
Gao Xinyi took the initiative to meet Zhou Chen and asked while drinking: "You are a returnee from overseas, so what are you going to do in the steel industry next?"
"Not necessarily, it depends on your mood. If you want to do it, you might do some business, but if you don't want to do it, just lie down at home and do nothing."
"Lie down? I just said that you are an interesting person and your words are really interesting. You are right. If you don't want to do something, just do it. Who said you must go to work? You can also lie down at home."
Gao Xinyi, who has a rebellious nature, listened to Zhou Chen's words about lying flat. Instead of feeling unambitious, she felt particularly appreciative of it. She felt that Zhou Chen was really different and an interesting person. He was different from the friends she had known before.
.
"Tell me more about things abroad, such as what is fun and interesting there. I have never been abroad, so I am very curious."
"Okay, I have nothing to do. I just want to chat with you."
Zhou Chen picked up some foreign cities and scenic spots to popularize science with Gao Xinyi.
One of them spoke, the other listened carefully, and they clinked glasses from time to time, which seemed particularly harmonious.
Unknowingly, time passed, and Gao Xinyi, who was listening in rapt attention, suddenly stood up.
"It's almost time. Let's go back. I don't know what's going on inside now. Are you still going in?"
"I'm not going in. I'm going back to my room to rest. Goodbye."
"etc."
Gao Xinyi stopped Zhou Chen and said very straightforwardly: "I had a good chat with you today. Please leave your contact information and I will visit you next time when I have time."
Zhou Chen looked at Gao Xinyi with a look that made Gao Xinyi unable to bear it, so he quickly looked away.
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just curious about foreign countries and want to ask you about it."
"I didn't say anything."
Zhou Chen took out his business cards from his pocket. He came here before and had some ideas, so he specially printed some business cards.
Gao Xinyi took the business card and took a look at it.
"Vice President of Hengyu Group? Really or not? With such a high position, it shouldn't be the kind of private company with just a few people, right?"
"In my family's company, I just use my name to bluff people, but in fact I have no power at all."
"Oh, it's still a family business."
Gao Xinyi teased and kicked the business card into his pocket, then waved to Zhou Chen.
"Let's go, Zhou Chen, let's make an appointment next time."
"By the way, my name is Gao Xinyi, remember it."
Looking at Gao Xinyi jumping away, Zhou Chen smiled faintly, then walked into the hotel and took the elevator upstairs.
On his first day in this world, he met familiar faces and had a good conversation, so he was in a good mood at this time.
Arriving at the floor of his room, Zhou Chen walked towards his room, but as soon as he got closer, he saw a man standing at the door of his room wearing a bright red woolen suit, black leggings, black high heels, and a perm with big waves.
The woman, smelling of alcohol, was holding the key card and swiping at the door.
Zhou Chen raised his head in surprise and glanced at the room number, then looked at his room card to make sure that he had found the right one. The wrong one must be this woman.
The room card always failed to open the door. This wavy woman was obviously anxious, and she knocked hard on the door several times angrily.
"What's the matter with breaking the door? Why can't it be opened? Breaking the door, even you are bullying me."
