In the office of Group Three, He Junchao said with an indifferent expression: "Of course you have to thank Gu Chen. In order for you to be transferred from the Municipal Bureau to the Criminal Investigation Team of Furong Branch, did you know that Gu Chen used up all our trainee police quotas?
Already."
"That's right, and do you know? How many trainee police officers want to be assigned to the Criminal Investigation Team of Furong Branch? You guys took advantage of me, why don't you thank me?" Officer Wang was also a little depressed.
The key point is that Ji Zhe looks stupid and not very smart.
When it comes to recruiting errand boys, those from the criminal investigation team are enough.
Officer Wang sometimes really didn't understand what was going on in Gu Chen's mind? Why did he bring Ji Zhe, who even stuttered when he spoke, to come?
Seeing that everyone had vented their complaints, Gu Chen walked up to Ji Zhe with a faint smile, patted Ji Zhe on the shoulder, and introduced to everyone: "Jizhe is the one I want to come here. I think he should be able to become an outstanding person."
Police officer."
"So don't think too much of Ji Zhe just because he has a stuttering problem. In fact, Ji Zhe doesn't stutter when he's not nervous, right? Ji Zhe."
After finishing his words, Gu Chen glanced at Ji Zhe beside him.
Ji Zhe took a deep breath, stood up and said, "Yes, as long as I'm not nervous, I won't stutter."
"Look." Seeing that Ji Zhe was speaking fluently at this time, Gu Chen also smiled and explained: "So starting from today, Ji Zhe will be a member of the Criminal Investigation Team of our Furong Branch. He will be temporarily assigned to the third group."
Glancing at Officer Ding and Lu Weiwei, Gu Chen said again: "Senior Brother Ding, Senior Sister Lu, you are the leaders of the third group, and Ji Zhe will be in charge of you from now on."
"No problem." Seeing that Gu Chen said this, Lu Weiwei certainly had no objection.
Although Officer Ding had some minor objections, he was the one Gu Chen wanted to come after all, so Gu Chen must have good vision.
And according to Gu Chen himself, he met Ji Zhe at the city bureau's press conference.
It can be said that being able to participate in the city bureau's press conference shows that Ji Zhe himself is also very good.
Therefore, Officer Ding said nothing more and could only nod and said: "Okay, in that case..."
Glancing at Yuan Shasha in the front row of Jizhe, Officer Ding said again: "Xiao Yuan, if you have any problems with him from now on, please help this new colleague more."
"No problem." When Yuan Shasha heard this, she turned her head with a smile and said, "Jizhe, from now on you have to call me Senior Sister Yuan."
"Copy that, Senior Sister Yuan." Ji Zhe nodded silently to express his understanding.
Yuan Shasha suddenly felt happy.
You know, before Ji Zhe came to the third group, he was considered the boss of the department.
Everyone calls Xiao Yuan, who has to be called senior brother and senior sister when meeting everyone.
It's okay now, a little junior brother who stutters is here, and I can be regarded as a senior from now on.
Thinking of this, Yuan Shasha couldn't contain her excitement.
Later, Gu Chen led three groups of department colleagues to briefly introduce Ji Zhe.
Then I went to group one and group two.
The purpose is for Ji Zhe to get familiar with everyone here as quickly as possible and to integrate quickly and correctly.
Fortunately, Ji Zhe stutters when he is nervous, but he has a good memory.
Gu Chen only gave a brief introduction. Among the large crowd, Ji Zhe was able to quickly distinguish and call everyone correctly.
These advantages were appreciated by Gu Chen.
The joining of new comrades always requires some adaptation time.
Just like when I first came to the Criminal Investigation Team 3, my mood was the same and I was looking forward to making a difference.
Returning to the office of Group Three, Gu Chen said: "You have gotten to know everyone in the criminal investigation team, so Xiao Yuan will arrange the next work for you."
"No problem." Ji Zhe relaxed and began to speak more smoothly.
Gu Chen then told Yuan Shasha: "Xiao Yuan, give a portion of the work you are doing to Ji Zhe."
"From now on, Jizhe's daily work will be arranged by you."
"Okay, I understand, Senior Brother Gu." Yuan Shasha was very satisfied with the sudden addition of a Junior Brother who was her tool.
Since all the accumulated work was completed yesterday, today's work is relatively simple.
Gu Chen also responded to He Junchao's request yesterday and planned to use the criminal investigation team's dinner fund after get off work today so that everyone can enjoy a dinner party during their busy work.
In everyone's own words, this is the follow-up to Police Day.
…
…
At 7 o'clock in the evening, according to the priority of everyone's work, everyone came to an old street nearby.
In Jiangnan City today, the night temperature is still hovering around zero, so there are only vehicles on the streets and very few pedestrians.
But entering each restaurant, it's a different scene.
Since Gu Chen had booked the restaurant in advance, several large private rooms were reserved by Gu Chen.
Due to the large number of people attending this dinner, the three criminal investigation teams ate in three private rooms respectively.
Gu Chen and Officer Wang chose to stay in the third group.
The store owner, Uncle Lei, used crutches to arrange the service staff, constantly shuttling around the aisles.
Then he pushed open the door of the private room where Gu Chen was, and said with a smile: "Gu Chen, I heard from the clerk that you are here, so I came here specially."
"Uncle Lei, long time no see, come and sit down." Seeing the boss, Uncle Lei, holding a cane at the door, Gu Chen quickly got up and helped Uncle Lei sit aside.
When Zhang Lei saw that the criminal investigation team was there, he also smiled lightly: "It's been a long time since you guys came to my place for dinner."
"Look at what you said, aren't you busy with work?" Glancing at the retro decoration in the private room, Gu Chen added: "The new store you are opening now is quite large and the decoration is also good."
"When I went upstairs just now, I found that almost every corner was full. It seems like business is good."
"Haha, thanks to the help of a few old comrades, they have also wanted to start a catering business in Jiangnan City for a long time, but they have no experience."
"It just so happens that I, Lao Lei, have been running restaurants for many years and have experience in this field, and I am a famous chef. So a few months ago, several old comrades put together a plan to buy this nearby store and renovate it.
Let’s all do catering together.”
"I think it's pretty good." Lu Weiwei looked at the retro decorations around her and couldn't help but sigh: "This kind of retro decoration seems to be very popular now."
"Yes, it has become popular in the past two years." Zhang Lei said.
Officer Wang also asked: "Aren't you afraid of fierce competition?"
Zhang Lei shook his head and smiled: "The key to opening a restaurant is that the food is delicious."
"No matter how luxurious you decorate the store, if the food is not good, there will be no repeat customers. And I am considered an old chef. My old comrades in the mine clearance unit are also my apprentices now."
"They cook and I guide, which saves a lot of effort and does not affect the quality of the dishes. I am relieved."
Hearing Zhang Lei introduce that his comrades were all mine-clearing troops, Ji Zhe immediately asked out of curiosity: "Uncle Lei, were you in the mine-clearing troops before?"
"Yeah." Zhang Lei nodded silently, patted his prosthetic leg and said, "Did you see it? This leg was blown off by a landmine while saving a comrade, so I had no choice but to retire and leave my old army.
.”
"In these years, thanks to Gu Chen and Gu Chen's friends who have taken care of the business, the small restaurant is still okay, and supporting myself is not a problem."
Picking up the crutch in his hand, Zhang Lei pointed around and said: "Now that the store is bigger, and with the help of old comrades, I can earn more than before, and I am more relaxed."
"In the past, if you ask Gu Chen, every time he brought his friends and colleagues to my restaurant for dinner, I had to be busy in the kitchen, so I didn't have time to chat with you."
"Yes." After hearing Zhang Lei's words, Ji Zhe nodded silently.
This was the first time that he met a mine clearance hero on the territory of Jiangnan City.
Zhang Lei saw that Ji Zhe looked unfamiliar, so he curiously asked Gu Chen: "Gu Chen, I have seen all the new and old comrades in your department, but I have never seen him?"
"Oh, he is new to our department, his name is Jizhe." Zhang Lei didn't say anything, and Gu Chen almost forgot to introduce him.
Then he said to Ji Zhe: "Ji Zhe, this is Zhang Lei, the mine clearance hero. Uncle Lei, when I was studying, I often came to take care of his business. His ancestor was the emperor's chef."
"Hello, Uncle Lei. It's a great honor to meet you today. I respect heroes the most." Ji Zhe quickly integrated into the family of the criminal investigation team and seemed not to be as nervous as before.
When I saw Zhang Lei with a cane, I was immediately in awe.
A few people quickly started chatting.
At this moment, a middle-aged waitress pushed open the box door and asked Zhang Lei: "Boss, the guest in Box 3 asked you when you will come over."
"Box No. 3?" After hearing what the middle-aged waitress said, Zhang Lei paused for a moment and suddenly realized.
He also slapped his forehead with an "Oh!" and couldn't help but said: "Look at my memory, I almost forgot a distinguished guest in the box just now when I was chatting with you, Gu Chen."
"So there is a distinguished guest here, Uncle Lei? Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" Seeing that Zhang Lei was a little confused, Gu Chen also smiled lightly and said: "Since there is a distinguished guest here, then Uncle Zhang, please hurry over. We are here
I don’t need you to accompany me.”
"Okay, I won't have dinner with you, so you can eat first." After Zhang Lei finished speaking, he picked up his crutch and was about to leave.
But the middle-aged waitress immediately said: "Boss, that person just said that he heard that you went to have dinner with Gu Chen from the Criminal Investigation Team of Furong Branch and asked if you could make an introduction. He wanted to get to know this Officer Gu."
"What? Want to get to know Gu Chen?" Zhang Lei frowned, also confused: "But I remember that they don't know each other?"
"I just don't know him, so I want to introduce you to him," the middle-aged female waiter said.
Zhang Lei was silent for a moment, then waved his hand and said: "I understand, you go ahead and do your work."
"Alas." Zhang Lei responded, and the middle-aged waitress closed the door and left.
Gu Chen then asked him: "Uncle Lei, who is this distinguished guest? Why do you want to see me?"
"He is Zhang Wenle, who has become popular in several comedy films recently," Zhang Lei said.
Upon hearing the name Zhang Wenle, Gu Chen seemed a little confused.
After all, I rarely pay attention to entertainment, so who is Zhang Wenle? Gu Chen has never heard of it.
But Gu Chen had never heard of it, but Lu Weiwei had, and she was very excited and said: "Uncle Lei, you said that VIP is Zhang Wenle? I really like watching his drama films, but I didn't expect that he would be in your hotel?"
"
"Yes, Zhang Wenle is indeed very popular recently. In the movies I have watched with my family over the past few years, he has made a cameo in several of them, including Good Guys." Officer Wang couldn't help but complain.
When Yuan Shasha saw this, she also smiled lightly and said: "Although Zhang Wenle played a supporting role in those comedy films, his popularity and reputation simply surpassed that of the protagonist. I think Zhang Wenle is a capable actor."
Seeing that everyone knew Zhang Wenle, Zhang Lei also smiled happily: "Actually, this Zhang Wenle is my cousin's son, so he has to call me uncle."
"What?" Hearing that the recently popular comedian turned out to be Zhang Lei's nephew, everyone couldn't help but be surprised. It felt like what a coincidence, right?
"Don't believe me?" Seeing the confusion in everyone's eyes, Zhang Lei said directly: "Well, Lu Weiwei, Gu Chen, Xiao Yuan and Xiao Wang, come sit with me and I will introduce them to you."
"Okay." Gu Chen was also surprised to know that comedian Zhang Wenle wanted to see him.
After all, I don’t know this Zhang Wenle.
But fortunately, Zhang Wenle was Uncle Lei's nephew and could be considered one of his own, so Gu Chen had no choice but to agree.
At this end, three groups of new and old colleagues were temporarily arranged to eat first, while he, along with Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha, followed Zhang Lei out of the private room and went directly to Box 3.
Without knocking on the door, Zhang Lei directly opened the door of the private room and walked into the room with crutches.
Gu Chen, who came in later, first noticed the two men in the box.
One of them is tall and thin, dressed simply, about 40 years old, and wears glasses like a teacher.
The other one looks about thirty-five or sixty, but is fat and looks cute.
Thinking that Zhang Wenle was a comedian he had never seen before, Gu Chen felt that the fat man was Zhang Lei's nephew Zhang Wenle.
When the fat man saw Gu Chen come in, he stood up and walked forward with a naive smile to shake hands: "You are Officer Gu, Emma, you are more handsome than on TV."
"Uh..." Gu Chen was stunned by the fat man's enthusiasm and asked quickly: "Have you seen me on TV?"
"Of course I've seen you. Just yesterday, in the CCTV News, Police Day interview, were you included?" the fat man pointed at Gu Chen and asked.
Gu Chen nodded silently: "That's right."
"Pa!" After slapping his hands, the fat man suddenly smiled and said: "Let me tell you, you must be right, and you know, you are very popular on the Internet now."
"Just this morning, I saw a few hot search terms about 'the most handsome police officer'. When I opened it, I saw, good guy, isn't this talking about you? How popular are you now?"
"Oh, so that's it?" Gu Chen didn't know how hot he was at all, but after listening to the fat man's explanation, he suddenly felt that he was really out of the circle?
Seeing the fat man chatting enthusiastically with Gu Chen, Zhang Lei, who was wearing a cane, stepped forward and introduced: "This is my nephew Zhang Wenle. He is currently acting in dramas in Beijing and has also participated in several comedies. He has a bit of a
Fame.”
"Oh, so you are Zhang Wenle?" After hearing Zhang Lei's words, Gu Chen confirmed that the fat man in front of him was indeed Zhang Wenle.
Zhang Wenle was stunned. He originally thought that Gu Chen would show great enthusiasm for him, but when he saw Gu Chen's reaction, it seemed that he didn't recognize him at all.
But the more this happened, the more excited Zhang Wenle became, and he said with a faint smile: "Officer Gu is busy with everything, how can he pay attention to things in our entertainment industry? It's normal if you don't know me, it's okay, come and sit here."
Gu Chen was enthusiastically pulled by Zhang Wenle's right hand and walked towards him.
Gu Chen also explained by the way: "Although I don't pay much attention to the entertainment industry, my colleagues all know you."
"That's right, my name is Lu Weiwei, I'm Gu Chen's partner, and I especially like your films."
"Me too, my name is Yuan Shasha, and I also like your movies."
"Just me, Lao Wang, my daughter really likes the movies you made."
The few people also exchanged simple greetings, which was regarded as getting to know each other.
At this moment, Gu Chen turned his attention to the tall, thin man with glasses and asked hurriedly: "Who is this?"
"Oh, my name is Zheng Kewen. I belong to the Jiangnan Film and Television Artists Association. Because I think Zhang Lei and Zhang Wenle are good friends, I was invited by them to come and sit there."
Seeing that Zheng Kewen was omitted, Zhang Wenle quickly explained: "Teacher Zheng is the vice president of Jiangnan Film and Television Association. It was through Teacher Zheng that I went to the capital to perform in dramas, and that's why I have the opportunity to make movies today. So,
Teacher Zheng can also be regarded as my noble person."
"Don't dare to take it, don't dare to take it."
Seeing Zhang Wenle promoting himself in such a way, Zheng Kewen also waved his hand and said with a slight smile: "I just introduced you. Whether you can become famous or not depends on you."
Glancing at Gu Chen, Zheng Kewen added, "But it's my honor to meet Officer Gu, Officer Lu, Officer Wang and Officer Yuan in Zhang Lei's store today."
With Zhang Lei as the matchmaker, everyone quickly got to know each other. Gu Chen also learned from everyone that Zhang Wenle occupies an important position in today's domestic comedy films.
Among the recent movies released in China, Zhang Wenle appears in 3 of them.
It can be said that Zhang Wenle has extremely good resources now. Many companies are begging Zhang Wenle to film and participate in movies.
Zhang Wenle’s schedule is also fully arranged.
After understanding Zhang Wenle's status in the comedy industry today, Gu Chen also smiled lightly and said: "So it's good that Mr. Zhang is so busy now and can come back to see his relatives."
"Some of the artists I know rarely go home because they are busy with work during the New Year. There are a few who are from Jiangnan City."
"Yes." Zhang Wenle nodded silently and admitted: "In Jiangnan City, we do have some artists who go out and rarely choose to go home to celebrate the New Year."
"I also met them in the capital and had contact with them. After all, we are all fellow villagers."
"And most of us will actually stay in the capital to celebrate the New Year. However, there are reasons why we don't go home. In fact, when we go home, we also have a lot of worries and have many last resorts."
After saying this, Zhang Wenle's brows frowned.
From his expression, Gu Chen seemed to be unable to see what a comedian should look like.
It's more like a migrant worker who is worried about not having enough money to go home for the New Year.
