Kang Jianfei helped Chen Hong add sugar and said, "I didn't expect it to be so difficult to find a coffee shop in Beijing."
"Thank you!" Chen Hong smiled at him reservedly and said, "Chinese people are not used to drinking coffee, so there are naturally few coffee shops."
Kang Jianfei stretched out his index finger and shook it pretentiously: "I think this is a big business opportunity."
"Open a coffee shop?" Chen Hong asked.
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "Build a branded coffee shop, and then open chain stores all over China."
Chen Hong said: "I'm afraid there won't be much business."
Kang Jianfei said: "How can there be no business? The petty bourgeoisie white-collar workers and college students will definitely like it."
Chen Hong said: "If you get by, how much money can a college student have? If you drink a few more coffees, a month's living expenses will be gone."
Kang Jianfei was stunned, and then he remembered that college students in the early 1990s were really poor and could not afford a few romantic purchases.
However, building a chain coffee brand is definitely a big business opportunity. China has a rich coffee culture, especially in Shanghai. Before liberation, you could find cafes everywhere.
Since the reform and opening up, petty bourgeoisie groups in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou have rekindled their love for coffee. Since the 1980s, there have been some shops selling coffee exclusively or both. But until now, the ones sold in the mainland are basically For instant coffee, consumers have no concept of coffee brands at all.
Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "Don't you believe this is a business opportunity? How about we make a bet."
"What bet?" Chen Hong asked.
Kang Jianfei said: "We will open a coffee shop together in Beijing. If we lose money, it will be mine alone. If the business is booming, you must agree to my request."
Chen Hong obviously didn't want to make a bet with Kang Jianfei. She smiled slyly and said, "I don't have any money to open a store."
Kang Jianfei said: "I'll lend it to you. The shares will be divided half and half."
Chen Hong stared at Kang Jianfei for a while, bit his lip and said, "Okay. I won't lose anyway."
Kang Jianfei said: "Then you come up with a name for our cafe."
"Well, it's called... grinding time?" Chen Hong thought for a long time to come up with such a name.
"Yes, the name is very literary and fresh, which is what petty bourgeoisie white-collar workers do," Kang Jianfei added, "When the brand was founded, it was best to give it a story - in 1918, mainland China was filled with smoke and war. A A little boy named Anan was unfortunately trafficked to Southeast Asia and became a slave in a coffee bean estate in Sumatra. The god of luck did not abandon him. By chance, Anan became the savior of the owner. Not only did the owner recover, His freedom also allowed him to participate in the management of the estate. The unique diligence and loyalty of the Chinese people gave him the opportunity to devote himself to the research of coffee planting, grinding, cooking and other techniques. Thirty years passed in a flash. Later, he was old The owner of the village passed away, and Anan also left this sad place, settled in Singapore, and opened a small cafe. So the first hand-grinding cafe in the Chinese community opened Grinding Time... How about it? It was war and Nanyang again. Overseas, with both historical heritage and foreign style, the petty bourgeoisie will definitely flock to it."
Chen Hong couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this: "Aren't you lying?"
Kang Jianfei said: "This is not a lie, it is a beautiful lie. Jianlibao is called false propaganda."
"Anyway, I can't tell you anything," Chen Hong said with a smile on her face and seemed to be in a very good mood. She asked, "Neither of us has ever run a coffee shop. And we don't have much time management. Who can run this shop?" Business?"
Kang Jianfei said: "Three-legged toads are hard to find. But there are plenty of two-legged toads. Just hire a few store managers and technicians from coffee shops in Hong Kong or Taiwan with high salaries."
Nowadays, there is no Starbucks in the mainland, on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, or on the island. As long as the "Ground Time" coffee shop operates well, it will definitely become the leading coffee brand in the mainland.
The two of them enthusiastically made suggestions for "killing time" and chatted until the evening. They were still not finished talking. They found a nearby restaurant to eat. After the meal, Kang Jianfei drove Chen Hong back again. This time, he finally "entered the house" successfully.
Outside the courtyard, Kang Jianfei said to Chen Hong, who was about to go home: "Won't you invite me in for a cup of coffee?"
"I only have one can of instant drink at home. I'm afraid you won't be used to drinking it." Chen Hong said this in a way that made him want to reject it.
"Everything you brew is delicious," Kang Jianfei said with a smile, "What's more, if we want to open a coffee shop together, we must first try the coffee skills of you, the landlady."
Chen Hong blushed and spat: "What kind of boss lady? It sounds so ugly."
Kang Jianfei said with a smile: "Okay, it's not the boss lady, it's Boss Chen."
Just like this, Kang Jianfei was finally allowed to enter the courtyard gate.
After entering the courtyard, Chen Hong said: "I live in the west wing, and my relatives live in the other two rooms. Don't speak too loud, or you will disturb them."
Kang Jianfei nodded to express his understanding. It would be bad for Chen Hong to spread the word about bringing a man home late at night.
The two of them sneaked into the west wing like thieves, and it was not until they entered the room that Chen Hong finally breathed a sigh of relief. She asked Kang Jianfei to sit down, and only took out a bottle of soda from the refrigerator, without making any coffee.
Kang Jianfei took a sip of soda and asked with a smile: "Are you afraid of your relatives here?"
"It's not that I'm afraid, I just don't like their gossip," Chen Hong didn't have many good friends in the capital. She probably had a lot of grievances and no one to talk to, so she complained to Kang Jianfei, "My distant cousins-in-law."
They are still cadres in government agencies. They talk nonsense all day long. Even when I am in my 20s and have no partner, they keep talking about me behind my back."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "I think their discussion is normal. You are so beautiful, so you must be surrounded by ten or eight men who are pursuing you. It's really surprising that you don't have a partner."
Chen Hong glared at him angrily: "You come to make fun of me too!"
Compared with the rude and polite relationship two days ago, the relationship between Chen Hong and Kang Jianfei was obviously much closer. This woman would occasionally act coquettishly and angry in front of him.
Kang Jianfei asked: "Your parents are both high-level intellectuals. Will they allow you to film and become an actor?"
Chen Hong said matter-of-factly: "It's great to be an actor and a performing artist. Why would my parents object?"
Well, although today's mainland entertainment industry is also in a mess, at least in the eyes of the public, actors are still a glorious profession. They are artists rather than actors.
Kang Jianfei casually asked about Chen Hong's family affairs, and she started talking about her parents and family. After a while, she even explained the interesting things about her childhood.
Chen Hong didn't know what was wrong with her. She always had reservations when talking to other people, but when she was with Kang Jianfei, she always seemed to have endless things to say, and she always felt like she had more to say when we parted on a date.
After a while, Chen Hong was surprised to realize that he had talked too much. He smiled sheepishly and said, "Oh, I have said so much. You can also tell me about your childhood."
"Me? Mine." Kang Jianfei smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Chen Hong urged curiously: "Tell me, I have read reports about you before, and your experience is like a legend."
Kang Jianfei had no choice but to make up his inspirational story again: "When I was a child, I grew up in a rural area. My father died early, and it was my mother who raised me up. After my mother passed away, in order not to starve, I swam to Hong Kong to beg for food.
I’m gone. There’s nothing much to say about my childhood, it was all a hard life. If you really want to hear it, I’ll tell you what happened after I went to Hong Kong..."
Under Kang Jianfei's narration, he became a mainland boy who was looked down upon by Hong Kong locals. He was often criticized and stepped on by others. Then every time, through his own hard work, he made those who looked down on him feel ashamed.
Chen Hong couldn't tell the truth from his words, and she really regarded him as a young man who succeeded through hard work. He immediately admired him even more.
"Look at my belly here," Kang Jianfei unbuttoned his clothes, revealing his strong chest and abdominal muscles, and made up nonsense. "Although it has recovered well, you can still see a little scar. This is where I just arrived.
I left it behind when I was in Hong Kong. When I was filming a movie and I didn't pay protection money to the local gang, dozens of gangsters rushed towards me, all holding machetes in their hands..."
"What happened next?" Chen Hong asked nervously, but his eyes couldn't help but fall on Kang Jianfei's abdominal muscles. Just as men like to look at women's breasts and buttocks, women also like to look at men's bodies, especially those of handsome men.
figure.
"Later, I had more than ten stitches on my stomach," Kang Jianfei boasted and said without drafting. "In order not to affect the filming progress, the wound on my stomach was not healed, so I started filming again with the guide tube. The gang boss also admired me.
Even if we don’t know each other about your skills, we can be regarded as friends. In Hong Kong society, if you are incompetent, people will bully you. As long as you are tough, others will admire you, and your enemies will take the initiative to be friends with you. You
Seeing that I am now the richest man in Hong Kong, in fact, there are many painful experiences under the glamour. Success is not something that comes easily."
Chen Hong, a girl who grew up in an intellectual family, has never suffered hardship even during the ten-year movement. At this time, listening to Kang Jianfei tell stories that she would never encounter in her life, bizarre, passionate, dark and inspiring, it was like
Watching adventure makes me feel moved and yearning.
She couldn't help but reach out and touch the scar on Kang Jianfei's stomach (actually she said: "You were in pain at that time, right?"
Kang Jianfei laughed and said: "It didn't hurt at the time, because the pain was so extreme that the nerves were numb. Instead, it was only after being sent to the hospital for bandaging that the pain became life-threatening."
"You are so brave. If it were me, I would have fainted from fear." Chen Hong's hand, like a man possessed, gently slid up from Kang Jianfei's belly and pressed it on his strong and strong chest.
Kang Jianfei held Chen Hong's hand, pulled it from his chest to his face, and then stroked his face.
It wasn't until Kang Jianfei kissed her hand gently that Chen Hong was startled and tried to pull her hand back. But instead of succeeding, she was pulled over by Kang Jianfei and hugged her, leaning over to kiss her on the lips.
"Don't... uh uh... um..." Chen Hong's kiss was really clumsy. Although she didn't resist, her teeth bit Kang Jianfei's tongue several times.
Kang Jianfei completely endured the pain and taught Chen Hong how to kiss. He can be called a model worker in the pervert world.
Fortunately, Chen Hong had a good understanding. Before biting off Kang Jianfei's tongue, she already knew how to cooperate, and she mesmerizedly enjoyed the thrilling pleasure of oral and tongue intercourse.
From Chen Hong's unfamiliar kissing skills and her body's reaction when she came into contact with a man, Kang Jianfei knew that this time he had met a virgin in her 20s again, and all this was thanks to the Chen family's strict tutoring.
Unknowingly, Chen Hong's tight pants had been taken off by Kang Jianfei. Just as her legs were being spread apart, Kang Jianfei suddenly stopped him and said, "If you really want it, I will give it to you when you get married."
Kang Jianfei saw that her eyes were blurred and she was obviously emotional, so he followed her words and said, "Okay, I will just kiss her after we get married."
Kang Jianfei opened Chen Hong's hand, buried his head between her legs, and licked it gently with the tip of his tongue.
"Ah... it's so dirty over there. Get up quickly." Chen Hong shouted to Kang Jianfei to get up quickly, but her little hands pressed Kang Jianfei's head and pressed against the center of her legs. The unprecedented stimulation almost made her
