    Not far ahead, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw a small pool not far away, with a small wooden house next to it. Zhou Liwen knelt down and sat in front of the house, and a man in kimono  The woman was showing him the tea ceremony.  Tea ceremony, as the name suggests, is the Taoism of tea. Historically, it was introduced to Japan from the Central Plains during the Tang Dynasty, and later reached its peak in the Song Dynasty.  With the evolution of Chinese history, the original tea ceremony has been passed down in Japan. Although there are many Chinese people who like to drink tea and there are many people who talk about tea eloquently, as for the tea ceremony, it is difficult to truly understand it.  What can be displayed is almost rare.  At present, some cities are engaged in tea culture and invite some so-called tea masters to perform for everyone.  These are no longer true tea ceremonies, but can only be called tea art.  Don't underestimate the difference in this word. A slight difference can make a huge difference.  Although the Japanese have character flaws and historical sins, their preservation of traditional culture is still worthy of attention.  Seeing Zhou Liwen enjoying the tea ceremony attentively, Yao Liang and Lao Lin couldn't help but stop and stood quietly not far away to avoid disturbing him.  Looking at the dexterity of the kimono woman's fingers with solemnity and piety, it seems that what is in front of her is not just a simple tea set and tea leaves, but a kind of spirit and culture. People can't help but feel the spiritual impact that the tea ceremony brings to people.  impact.  About ten minutes later, when the last procedure was completed, the woman in kimono held up the tea cup with both hands in the traditional way. Zhou Liwen also raised his hand to take it solemnly, then raised his eyebrows to indicate it, and then put it in his mouth to sip.  ¡°Good tea and good tea ceremony¡± Zhou Liwen praised with a smile.  Although the woman in kimono could not understand Chinese, she understood the meaning of Zhou Liwen's words and smiled slightly to express her gratitude.  At this time, Zhou Liwen saw Yao Liang and Lao Lin not far away, and nodded slightly to them.  "Dr. Zhou" "Here, sit down and have a taste together." Zhou Liwen raised his hand and said with a smile.  Yao Liang and Lao Lin took the empty seats next to Zhou Liwen and knelt down, following his example. After they sat down, the kimono woman made them each a cup of tea.  Following Zhou Liwen's behavior just now, the two of them took a sip of tea awkwardly and then praised it at the same time.  Zhou Liwen said something in Japanese, and then bowed slightly to the kimono woman opposite. The other party replied with a slight smile, then bowed slightly, and then stood up and left with small steps.  After she left, Zhou Liwen looked at Yao Liang and the others, and said with a smile: "Okay, stop pretending, look at how awkward you guys are sitting on your knees, just do whatever you want." "Haha, Jay Chou is still considerate of us, Yao Xing  It's okay to be young, my old bones can't stand the torture, and my legs are numb after just a few minutes of sitting like this." Lao Lin suddenly laughed, and he quickly changed his position and sat up cross-legged, laughing at himself.  And Yao Liang also said with a smile that he was not used to this kind of sitting method, it was too strenuous, and it was more comfortable to sit cross-legged.  "I'm talking about Jay Chou, this tea ceremony looks a bit tasteful, but it's just like that when you drink it in your mouth." In the past, Yao Liang called Zhou Liwen "Brother Zhou", but over the years, with the difference in identity distance between the two parties, he gradually  From Brother Zhou to Director Zhou, not to mention that Lao Lin was here again today, so he still spoke with this title.  "You kid, the key to tea ceremony is the Tao, not the tea. Do you think you can just make a cup of tea to quench your thirst in the office? Did you know that the lady just now is the most famous tea ceremony master in Japan, and it is rare for ordinary people to meet her?  , let alone asking her to demonstrate the tea ceremony. " "So awesome." Yao Liang's eyes widened in disbelief.  Zhou Liwen smiled and talked about the qualifications to invite her. Generally, only high-ranking officials or rich people can invite her, and it also depends on whether the other party is willing.  And even if she agrees, her fee is very high each time.  Speaking of this, Yao Liang couldn't help but ask her how much it would cost, and Lao Lin next to him also showed a curious expression. Zhou Liwen said a number in an understatement, which shocked them all. They must know that this fee is indeed  It's impressive. If it were placed in China, it would be more than enough to have a mistress.  Seeing the strange expressions on their faces, I didn¡¯t know what they were thinking of.  Zhou Liwen laughed and cursed in his heart and stopped mentioning this matter.  Then I asked them if their trip was going well, and then asked about the recent situation of Shanghai Banking Corporation.  Since he didn¡¯t know what Zhou Liwen¡¯s intention was in calling them over this time, Lao Lin was still very careful when answering, for fear of saying something wrong.  As for Yao Liang, he supplemented on the side and also made a detailed report when Zhou Liwen asked about the business situation.  "Maybe you are wondering why I asked you to come?" Zhou Liwen asked with a smile.  Lao Lin and Yao Liang exchanged glances, and Yao Liang nodded and said, "Yes, Jay Chou, Japan is not far from Shanghai. Since you are in Japan, why don't you just go back to Shanghai to talk? Could it be" "Don't.  Random thoughts." Zhou Liwen waved his hand and said: "I came to Japan this time to discuss some business with SoftBank, so it was a good idea to meet you. Besides, you also said that the two places are not far away.It¡¯s also convenient, so I arranged the place here.  Furthermore, what I want to talk to you about today is relatively confidential, and I don¡¯t want too many people to know in advance.  " Hearing this, Lao Lin and Yao Liang were finally relieved. It seemed that Zhou Liwen didn't want to meet with them to accuse them. However, what was the secret that Zhou Liwen said? They couldn't think of it for a while.  Understood. ¡°Old Lin, do you still remember the time I talked to you when Lao Su retreated?  "Zhou Liwen suddenly changed the topic and talked about the past. Of course Lao Lin remembered the scene when Zhou Liwen extended an olive branch to him, and it was precisely because of this opportunity that he became the nominal owner of Shanghai Bank. However,  Why did Zhou Liwen suddenly mention this matter? It has been many years, and there is Yao Liang around. What is his intention? "Of course I remember, if it weren't for Director Jay's support, I, Lao Lin, wouldn't be where I am today."  I, Lao Lin, have always kept in mind Chairman Jay's love and affection  " "Haha, there's no need to say these words. I don't want to hear such flattery when I meet you today.  "Zhou Liwen smiled and waved his hands before Lao Lin finished speaking. Seeing the confusion on Lao Lin's face, he smiled and asked: "I remember talking to you about Or's listing.  " "Remember, I remember" Lao Lin nodded quickly: "At that time, Director Jay Chou's company was preparing to go public. I was still feeling emotional at that time.  " "Haha, do you still remember what you were feeling?  "Zhou Liwen continued to ask with a smile. "How could I not remember? I thought it was a great opportunity to be listed in the United States. If our Shanghai Bank can do the same  "Speaking of this, Lao Lin suddenly paused. He seemed to have come to his senses. His eyes widened suddenly, with an expression of ecstasy and disbelief on his face: "Chou Zhou, are you planning to bring us here to destroy the bank the United States?  Listed?  ¡± (Second update, please vote and recommend!)
