Chapter 64
But no one answered, and everyone picked up their cameras and prepared to chase.
"Hurry! Maybe we can take a picture of Mr. Gu getting off the car."
Reporter Wang was stunned for a moment, and was struggling whether to join the chase. However, he saw that the crowd of media only chased for two steps before being stopped by the reception staff.
The receptionist said, "Sorry, friends from the media, because it involves the privacy of our guests, please stay here. I'd also like to trouble you to delete the photos you just took."
Although there are seats for the media, the host didn't invite so many media? What are these people here for? What they just took a picture of seems to be Mr. Li's car?
Everyone could only sit back down, smiling awkwardly but politely: "In fact, we only took pictures of the car body, so it doesn't involve any privacy issues..."
Someone quietly handed over a red envelope and said, "Sorry to bother the host. I wish the old man good health and a long life. Actually, we mainly want to interview Mr. Gu, but we can't find a way. Is there any chance to borrow your reception room or something to invite Mr. Gu for an interview? We promise not to disturb other guests."
The receptionist did not take the red envelope, but just glanced at the media and asked in confusion: "Do you all want to interview that... Mr. Gu?"
Everyone said in unison: "Yes, yes, please convey it to me."
Everyone heard their colleagues speaking in unison and looked at each other in bewilderment.
It's fine that I got the news and went to the birthday party to take pictures of Mr. Gu, but there were so many people present, all with the same purpose???
Even if they are in the same industry, they may not all know each other. Now they are frantically searching in their minds, who are these media outlets? Why have so many people suddenly come? Is there some important information that they don’t know?
The receptionist was also confused. Mr. Gu was referring to Mr. Li's partner, Mr. Gu? Was there any shocking news about Mr. Gu?
The receptionist said, "Wait a moment, I'll go ask."
Reporter Wang exclaimed: "So you are all here to take pictures of Mr. Gu?" It turns out that the legendary Mr. Gu's outings are such a grand event that many media outlets are attracted to it. Isn't this more impressive than being a popular star?
Everyone then realized that there was someone who didn't even take out his camera, so they asked, "Xiao Wang, aren't you?"
Reporter Wang shook his head and said, "No, I'm not. I just took some private work and I won't compete with you for the big news."
After a while, the receptionist came back with Assistant Chen. Assistant Chen was a little surprised to see such a large circle of media, but he still said in a normal tone: "Dear media friends, I am Mr. Li's assistant. My last name is Chen. If you have any requests, you can communicate with me."
The flash lights flashed again.
Upon hearing that it was Mr. Li's assistant, the reporter immediately said, "Mr. Chen, it is widely rumored that Mr. Gu and Mr. Li, who participated in the variety show "Love Tutorial Class", are in a legal relationship, but the Li family has not announced the marriage. So, is this rumor true? Is there a chance for us to invite Mr. Gu and Mr. Li to appear together for an exclusive interview?"
The media from other circles immediately looked at him. If they wanted to take a photo of a husband and wife together, they should just say so. It’s out of date to still ask whether they are a couple.
Assistant Chen said, "It's true, but Mr. Gu and Mr. Li don't accept interviews on this topic. Next question."
The media in the e-sports circle seized the opportunity and said first: "The day before yesterday, WL under Li's won the spring championship. These five players were selected by Mr. Gu. I heard from player Shen Yuan that Mr. Gu is proficient in games and has a unique vision. Do we have the opportunity to do a special report on e-sports about Mr. Gu's mental journey in forming and training a team?"
Everyone was a little surprised. Mr. Gu even dabbled in e-sports? He formed a team and won the championship?! Mr. Gu is really awesome! But now it seems that compared to Mr. Gu’s other achievements, e-sports is nothing.
Assistant Chen said, "You can ask the team leaders or players about these questions. Next."
Environmental protection media said: "This year, the municipal government has begun to promote the harmless disposal of domestic waste in the entire region. It is currently in the integration negotiation period. Mr. Gu is the actual promoter of the negotiations. We hope to interview Mr. Gu and let the society understand the direction and progress of the integration work..."
This is a professional issue, and the media from the business and academic circles all nodded. However, Mr. Gu is also a strong promoter of social public welfare, which is amazing.
Assistant Chen took a deep breath, thinking back to when he was still giving Mr. Gu pocket money on behalf of President Li, Mr. Gu had already become so awesome without anyone noticing.
He said: "For matters related to the full-area integration, please contact Huanyu Environmental Protection directly. They are the winning bidder for this project. Next."
Although reporter Wang was not interviewing "Mr. Gu", he became excited just listening to the news. It was like a press conference was held on the spot. Every detail of Mr. Gu's deeds was important news in the industry. This scene was so exciting...
But at this time, he received a call from Gu Zhongmao's assistant, who asked, "What's the situation over there? Have you heard any news?"
Reporter Wang said excitedly, "Today, many media came here to interview Mr. Gu."
The assistant on the other end muttered, "What's going on? It wasn't arranged by us. Could it be Mrs. Cheng?"
Then he said, "Then you go with them, and remember to keep an eye on Mr. Gu's movements."
Reporter Wang was puzzled: "What? Aren't we here to take pictures of Mr. Gu's unfilial son? What does it have to do with Mr. Gu?"
The assistant said impatiently: "I wonder if you are not in your right mind? The Mr. Gu who married Li Tingqin is Mr. Gu's son!"
Reporter Wang immediately said: "Ah? Are you sure?" What kind of confusing statement is this?
He had never heard of any famous sons of Gu Zhongmao, so he thought that the person to be photographed today was some illegitimate child. Could this amazing Mr. Gu be his son? Gu Zhongmao must be really out of his mind, right? ? ?
The assistant said, "So have you seen Mr. Gu?"
Reporter Wang said: "No, they didn't allow us to see him at all. They asked his assistant to answer the reporters' questions. It was like a press conference."
There was no reply for a while. It seemed that the assistant was reporting something to Gu Zhongmao. After a while, he said, "Then I will send you a message. You can ask the media carefully in front of them and make sure all media friends know the truth."
Reporter Wang: “?” The truth? What the hell? This money doesn’t look easy to earn…
Here, the academic media continued: "Uh... we won't interview Mr. Gu... I heard that the Gu family and the Li family are old friends, so I just want to ask, is Mr. Gu's elder, Professor Gu, here today?"
Assistant Chen smiled and said, "No."
The business media finally couldn't help it and said, "There is news that on the day when Li Group suffered a large-scale cyber attack, Mr. Gu was in charge of the work at the headquarters of the group. Is this true? What was the specific situation at that time? Will Mr. Gu take up an important position in the Li Group in the future?"
Assistant Chen said: "For related questions, please contact the person in charge of the relevant department of our company."
"Everyone, do you have any other questions?"
My colleagues present looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes. Although Mr. Gu has not been interviewed yet, the questions just now have achieved information sharing.
It turns out that the Mr. Gu rumored in various fields is really the same person! Mr. Gu is really that awesome! He has quietly done so many great things in various circles, causing all parties to move...
Assistant Chen saw that no one spoke for a while, so he said, "If there is no problem, then..."
"Mr. Chen, wait a minute!" Reporter Wang had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak, "I have another question."
Assistant Chen said, "You go ahead."
Reporter Wang said with difficulty: "I want to ask, Mr. Gu, as the son of Mr. Gu Zhongmao, has disappeared since marrying into the Li family and has not contacted his relatives and parents. What is going on?"
When reporter Wang said this, some people laughed as if they had heard a joke; some looked at him as if he was an idiot; some shook their heads...
Reporter Wang thought about the previous high-sounding questions and felt like an idiot. Money is so hard to earn and shit is so hard to eat.
Someone sighed, "Xiao Wang, why are you still asking this kind of question now? Didn't we say long ago that it was a rumor that Mr. Gu was Gu Zhongmao's son?"
Someone asked back: "Do you think Mr. Gu is like Gu Zhongmao's son?"
Some people suspected: "Didn't Gu Zhongmao always have only three sons? As soon as Mr. Gu's reputation became known, he jumped out to recognize his sons. It's a bit strange..."
Assistant Chen smiled and said, "I heard that Mr. Gu also came here to celebrate his birthday today. Is that right? Everyone should have the ability to discern."
…
Li Tingqin and Gu Chen's car stopped in front of the main banquet hall, and the eyes of the guests all turned to them.
The driver got out and opened the back door.
Li Tingqin got out of the car first, but he still protected the door frame with his hands. After another tall and noble young man got out of the car, he took the young man's hand and walked into the banquet hall side by side.
Is this the long-rumored partner of Mr. Li?
At just one glance, everyone felt that it really lived up to its reputation!
The young man had an extraordinary bearing and a strong aura, and was no less impressive than Li Tingqin when walking side by side with him, but there seemed to be a different feeling.
Although both of them seem to be people with strong control, Mr. Li gives people a strong sense of oppression, while Mr. Gu looks relaxed and at ease. When the two of them walk together, there is a subtle complementarity and match.
Look closely, although both of them are wearing low-key suits, they echo each other in details, such as the color of the tie, the pair of cufflinks, and the watches that are revealed in their gestures...
Even wearing this at a dinner party can only mean that...these two are still in the honeymoon period...They are low-key, but can't help showing their affection...
Tsk tsk, it’s hard to tell which of these two bosses would have this kind of personality.
Gu Zhongmao entered the main banquet hall under the pretext of delivering a gift to Mr. Li San. He saw Li Tingqin from afar and quickly chased after him.
But... the person next to Li Tingqin is Gu Chen? It doesn't look like that?
Just as he was about to chase after them and say something, he saw Li Morong coming up to them warmly, smiling and saying loudly: "Tingqin, Xiao Gu, welcome..." She was the fourth daughter of Mr. Li San, and today she was the host welcoming the guests.
Gu Chen shook her hand and said, "Hello, Fourth Aunt."
Li Morong said: "By the way, Xiao Gu, why didn't your grandfather come today?"
Gu Chen said, "I don't know." He didn't even know that he had a grandfather, so he could only say that Jiashu was good at making up stories.
Li Morong said: "Alas, I'm afraid that Mr. Gu will only come on my second uncle's 90th birthday." Since Jiashu had said that it was Mr. Gu who instructed the Ling family's matter, she would not cause trouble for Gu Chen.
The person who was holding a glass of wine and talking nearby heard this and couldn't help but whisper to his companions, "It seems that the Gu family is only on good terms with the second branch of the Li family. They don't even give face to the third master of the Li family?"
At this time, the Yun family also saw Li Tingqin, and naturally knew that the partner next to him was the mysterious Mr. Gu from the Gu family. They had been looking forward to it for a long time and finally it came true.
Yunxiu immediately came over with her husband and children and said, "Boss Li, long time no see."
He then gave Gu Chen a grateful look and said, "Mr. Gu, I've heard a lot about you. Our entire team is very grateful for your generous help and assistance. Now we would like to thank you again in person."
Gu Chen said, "You're welcome."
Yunxiu added: "I don't know if Professor Gu came with you. We also want to thank him again and discuss some academic issues with him."
The people around glanced at Yun Xiu again. They had heard that the Yun family had escaped from this crisis with the help of the mysterious Gu family's academic bigwigs, but the outside world wanted to poach Professor Gu but couldn't find him no matter how hard they searched.
My goodness, if the Yun family keeps in touch with Professor Gu, I can’t imagine how smoothly their research and development projects will go in the future.
Gu Chen said: "No need, he is not interested in these."
Yun Zhou, who was watching them, finally couldn't help but speak, saying in a tone of sudden enlightenment: "Boss Li, Boss Gu, it turns out that you were already secretly married at that time!"
At the beginning, he went to the hotel to "seduce" both of these big guys. He must be crazy. Look at how these two people wear couple outfits when they go out...
People around: What? Mr. Li and Mr. Gu have been together for a long time? They are just secretly married? No wonder the Gu family still doesn't agree to this marriage...
Yun Zhou thought about it, and suddenly said, "I'm not the first one to see you two in the same frame, am I?"
Gu Chen also thought about it, smiled, and said, "It should be."
At this time, the executives of Li's also looked over and said, "Boss Li, it's really lively today."
He shook hands with Gu Chen enthusiastically and said, "Mr. Gu, nice to see you again."
Vice President Xu said, "Mr. Gu, what have you and President Li thought about my proposal last time?"
Mr. Gu looked at Li Tingqin, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the proposal?"
Vice President Xu said, "I am going to retire. How about you take over my position?"
This statement caused a lot of discussion. Was the rumor that Mr. Gu was going to work for Li Corporation as a senior executive actually true? Even Vice President Xu was going to give up his position? But considering Mr. Gu's reputation, they actually thought there was nothing wrong with this?
Gu Chen smiled and said, "No, I told you last time that Mr. Li is making money for me."
Yun Zhou stood aside, looking at Gu Chen and Li Tingqin, who were dressed in "couple outfits", holding hands and chatting happily with everyone, and felt a little weird.
Finally seeing Li Jiashu, he felt like he finally had something to say, and said, "Boss Li... these two big guys standing together are simply a feast for those who love beauty..."
Li Jiashu looked at him warily: "What did you say about my brother, my sister-in-law and me last time..." This guy has a criminal record.
"Your brother and sister-in-law are not as good as you..." Yun Zhou held his face and said, "Look at your brother and sister-in-law, don't they look like a newlywed couple at a wedding banquet welcoming greetings from relatives and friends? What a beautiful scene."
Li Jiashu breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement, "If you can, please say more."
Gu Zhongmao stood in the corner, looking at Gu Chen and Li Tingqin surrounded by the crowd, and began to feel confused.
The person next to Li Tingqin...
Is it really his son Gu Chen?
