Chapter 291: The leader’s mission makes everyone envious
Text
Zhou Chen followed the soldier and asked twice, but the soldier didn't answer. In the end, he could only shut up and follow silently.
Arriving at the central building of the military camp, this is where the army cadres work. Zhou Chen has never been inside, but has walked outside many times.
Under the leadership of the soldiers, Zhou Chen came to an office and saw the leader who wanted to see him.
"Chief, student Zhou Chen has been brought here, please give instructions."
"Okay, you go ahead and I'll talk to classmate Zhou Chen."
After dismissing his subordinates' business, he waved to Zhou Chen: "Classmate Zhou Chen, come and sit down quickly."
Zhou Chen never expected that the person who wanted to see him turned out to be Chief of Staff Zhao. He had no contact with Chief of Staff Zhao, but looking at him, he didn't look like he was looking for trouble.
So he walked in and carefully sat down next to Chief of Staff Zhao.
"Chief, do you have something to do with me?"
He couldn't think of a reason for calling him over so late at night.
"hehe."
Seeing that Zhou Chen was quite nervous, Chief of Staff Zhao smiled slightly and said with relief: "Don't be nervous, young man. I'm not looking for you, not for bad things, but to ask you for help if I need something."
Zhou Chen was even more confused: "Chief, how can I help you?"
Chief of Staff Zhao smiled and said: "Young man is quite impatient. Well, I will tell you directly. But before I speak, there is an issue that needs to be confirmed."
"Chief, please ask."
"Did you really write the song "Goodbye, Veteran" that you sang at the last gala?
Hearing that this was the question, Zhou Chen breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "Yes, Chief."
"That would be best."
Chief of Staff Zhao smiled even more happily, "In this case, you will definitely be able to help me with this."
"It's like this. During the Chinese New Year this year, the major military regions in Yanjing are preparing to jointly hold a Spring Festival Gala. Each military camp must submit at least one program. In the past, we sang military songs, but this year I think
I need to make a change, and you happen to be talented in this area, so I just want to ask, what kind of show do you think is suitable for our military camp?"
Zhou Chen suddenly looked embarrassed: "Chief, you should discuss this matter with other chiefs. I am just a student, how can I know so much."
"Young man, you are so humble. You can't hide anything from me in this military camp. I know that in addition to writing songs, you can also write poems and novels. You are so talented. You want to have a performance."
, it shouldn’t be difficult, right?”
The smile on Staff Zhao's face made Zhou Chen think that he was like a smiling tiger. This old guy was quite good at instigating others.
"Chief, you are giving me too much praise. In fact, I just wrote it blindly. You think too highly of me. I'm afraid that I won't be able to figure it out, and I'm afraid that it will embarrass you and our military camp."
"It's okay. Young people must have the courage to innovate. I believe you can do it."
Zhou Chen's mouth twitched and he said so. He knew that he couldn't shirk it. Chief of Staff Zhao was sure to defeat him.
"Chief, you also know that creating is a very energy-consuming and time-consuming thing. It's not that I don't help, but it's because I have military training every day and classes at night, so I don't have any extra energy."
Being able to become the chief of staff at the deputy division level, Chief of Staff Zhao is naturally a good person. He immediately understood what Zhou Chen meant.
"Young man is not honest. Okay, just tell me what requests you have. As long as they are not too excessive, I will try my best to meet them."
Zhou Chen smiled shyly at first, and then said: "Military training is a task, so naturally there can be no mistakes. It's just that at night, I want to spend more time creating."
"I understand, don't you want to go to class at night?"
"It's not that I don't want to, but I need time to create." Zhou Chen corrected.
"hehe."
Chief of Staff Zhao laughed a few times, then thought for a while and said, "Okay, I will tell your instructor that you don't have to go to class at night."
As the leader of the army, he naturally knows what classes are held in the evening, and most of the time is self-study. If he doesn't go, it won't be a big problem. The mission of the military camp is more important now.
"Thank you, chief."
Zhou Chen was also a little surprised. He didn't expect Chief of Staff Zhao to agree to his request so easily.
"Do you have any other requirements?" Chief of Staff Zhao asked again.
Zhou Chen shook his head directly this time and said: "No more."
He understood the principle of enough is enough. Chief of Staff Zhao agreed to his request not to go to class at night because of his value. If he pushed further, he might make the other party unhappy.
Chief of Staff Zhao showed a satisfied smile. This young man was much calmer than he thought.
"But chief, I want to ask what kind of show you want to perform and what direction you want to perform. Only after this is determined can I start 'creating'."
Chief of Staff Zhao raised his eyebrows. He really hadn't thought about this problem. He came to Zhou Chen because he wanted to hand over the task to Zhou Chen.
"Well, it depends on what you are good at."
Zhou Chen asked tentatively: "Singing, skit, or dancing?"
Chief of Staff Zhao asked: "Dancing? Do you think there are only a few female soldiers in our military camp? Do you expect a group of us old men to perform dancing?"
"Ahem."
Thinking of a group of soldiers doing various dances, Zhou Chen couldn't help but shudder.
"Then I will give priority to writing songs or sketches?"
"You also know the skits?"
Chief of Staff Zhao was surprised that skits were also a highlight at the gala, but few people in the army could perform skits well.
Zhou Chen replied: "A skit is actually a change in the story. I can still write stories."
He himself doesn't have any talent for sketches, but he has seen countless sketches in several worlds, so it is not a big problem to come up with a sketch.
Knowing that Zhou Chen still had this ability, Chief of Staff Zhao became more confident.
"In this way, classmate Zhou Chen, I will give you enough time. Just put out the program two months before the Spring Festival so that everyone has time to prepare. You can prepare a few more programs and we will choose the most suitable one then."
The corner of Zhou Chen's mouth twitched twice. The old leader was really rude and prepared a few more. If he didn't have a lot of inventory in his mind, how could he have so many programs.
"Yes, chief, but this way, the task will be even heavier. I will definitely do my best."
Chief of Staff Zhao patted Zhou Chen on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Young people should be hardworking. Young man, I believe in you. You can do it."
As soon as Zhou Chen returned to the dormitory, he saw everyone in the dormitory staring at him with burning eyes.; w
"Zhou Chen, why did the chief ask you to come over?" Houpu asked impatiently.
Zhou Chen walked to the table, faced everyone's gaze, and sighed: "Brothers, I won't be able to accompany you to class in the evening."
When Qiu Shui and others heard this, they were immediately shocked: "What's going on?"
"The chief has given me a difficult task. In the next few months, I will work hard to complete the task, so I don't need to attend evening classes and self-study."
"Fuck me!"
The other eleven people in the dormitory all jumped up and quickly surrounded Zhou Chen.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Zhou Chen spoke out his mission in a leisurely manner, causing several people to widen their eyes with disbelief on their faces.
"Damn, Zhou Chen, are you too lucky?" Wu Ruixiang wailed loudly.
"Lucky?"
Zhou Chen sneered: "Then I'll give this task to you, will you do it?"
"I?"
Wu Ruixiang pointed at himself and immediately shook his head: "I can't do it, I can't do it."
He is not stupid. If the task assigned by the leader is completed, it will be fine. If he fails to complete it, the consequences will be really hard to say.
Qiu Shui said humbly: "Zhou Chen, I am quite talented. Can you tell the chief and let me join you? I can help you make suggestions. Even if it doesn't work, I can also run errands for you."
