Chapter 154 Unrestricted Donations
After hearing what Lao Mao said, Wang Shanshan was stunned, and then she asked, "Isn't your purpose just to get the other party to pay you back?"
Wang Shanshan felt as if she had misheard. Wasn't his purpose to collect the debt owed to him? Why did he seem indifferent to the news of Ding Xinran's death, and even seemed so happy?
"Ah... I mean, money is nothing compared to Ding Xinran's suicide. After all, it involves human life." Old Cat laughed and said, "Reporter Wang, thank you for your hard work. I'll treat you to a drink tonight."
Wang Shanshan shook her head and refused: "No, I have to go back now. I'm a little tired today."
Lao Mao nodded without forcing the other party. After thanking him again, he walked out of the coffee shop with a happy face.
At this moment, he was completely overwhelmed with admiration for Tang Shuo. Today's matter was instructed by Tang Shuo from beginning to end. He was just acting according to the other party's arrangements.
What was quite smooth was that he had a keen eye and recognized at a glance that Wang Shanshan could become the protagonist of this play, and she did not disappoint him.
Not only is Ding Xinran's reputation ruined, but he was even killed by Tang Shuo. It was such a relief.
The old cat waved to his younger brother who had been waiting by the roadside. When he came over, he asked, "Did you deliver the goods?"
The other party nodded and replied, "Brother Cat, it's delivered."
The old cat rubbed his forehead, laughed, and said, "Let's go back and have a celebration."
"Brother Cat, what's the good news?"
The old cat stepped forward, put his hand on the man's shoulder and said, "That bastard Ding Xinran is dead!"
"Really, Cat?"
“…”
As they were talking, the two of them got into a car on the side of the road.
Wang Shanshan stood at the door of the coffee shop holding her computer, looking at Lao Mao's back suspiciously. It seemed that today's matter was not so simple.
Am I being used as a gun?

After Tang Shuo and Jesus escaped from the guild hall, they went to a restaurant they had previously agreed to go to with Lao Mao.
Someone was already waiting for them at the hotel. When they saw the two of them come in, they handed Tang Shuo an invitation to the corporate exchange event that evening.
After Tang Shuo thanked him, he saw that the invitation was for Liu Kaicheng, the CEO of a cleaning agent manufacturer called Guanwei.
Tang Shuo didn't care where Liu Kaicheng was going that night. He put away the invitation and started eating with Jesus at the restaurant.
After dinner, the two went to a brand clothing store, picked out a suit for themselves, and bought one for Jesus.
After the two of them dressed up properly, they immediately rushed to Shenzhen.
The private enterprise exchange meeting was held in Shenzhen that evening. In addition to meeting his long-time friend Qiao Bazhi, he also had a little surprise for him.
After arriving at the Yue Manyuan Hotel, the venue of the exchange meeting, Tang Shuo showed the invitation letter to the person in charge standing outside the venue on the second floor of the hotel.
"Hello, Mr. Liu." After helping with the registration, the other party said, "We have added a small charity event to our evening banquet to donate money to the people in the mountainous area affected by the recent floods."
Tang Shuo frowned and asked, "How much do you want to donate?"
Isn't this highway robbery? They didn't ask for donations before they came.
"That's entirely up to you; we don't have any restrictions," the other person replied. "However, the donors and the amount will be announced by our staff on site. The amount and the company's name will also be published in the newspaper tomorrow, promoting this spirit of selfless dedication."
Tang Shuo nodded slowly and said, "As long as there are no restrictions."
Generally speaking, this kind of semi-mandatory donation with no limit on the amount is actually quite difficult to make. Furthermore, since it will be announced on the spot and published in the newspapers, even for the sake of face, I believe that people will not be too stingy. Some people may even try to save face by pretending to be generous.
The man in charge of reception was delighted. It seemed that Liu Kaicheng was doing good business and had another good income.
Tang Shuo took out two hundred yuan from his pocket, thought for a moment, put one away and said, "Donate one hundred."
It’s not that Tang Shuo doesn’t have money, but he doesn’t want to be taken advantage of.
First of all, he has no idea where the money will be donated. Who can guarantee that there is no shady dealings involved?
Besides, it wasn’t his people who were lost, but Liu Kaicheng’s. What does it have to do with him?
"One hundred?" The man in charge of reception thought he had misunderstood and asked for confirmation.
Almost all the people who came here at night were entrepreneurs with assets worth tens of millions, and some of them had assets close to 100 million. The smallest one among the people who came in earlier donated 100,000, but this guy only donated 100!
Doesn’t he know that the donation amount will be announced later?
"Yes." Tang Shuo said, "Didn't you say there were no restrictions?"
The man was stunned for a moment, then reminded him, "We will publish the list of donors and the amount of money. Do you want to reconsider?"
"No."
Tang Shuo shook his head and said self-awarely, "I donated the least. Please put me first, otherwise I will be easily overlooked."
The man smiled. This donation amount probably wouldn't go unnoticed! It might even become a focal point. Throw the Communist Party's banner.
After coming in from the reception desk, Tang Shuo carefully looked around the venue.
Judging from the specifications alone, this private enterprise exchange meeting was quite good, but after all, it had a certain official nature, so there were no messy scenes and everything proceeded step by step.
The venue is divided into two parts, one of which is a large conference room for meetings, and the other is a banquet hall for communication.
The evening schedule was clearly stated on the invitation. First, everyone would hold a meeting, followed by a speech by the leader and then by the representatives, and then it would be time for dinner.
After finding the seat in the last row with Liu Kaicheng's name on it, Tang Shuo curled his lips. It seemed that Liu Kaicheng was not doing very well, but it was worth the one hundred yuan he donated.
When Tang Shuo came in, there were already quite a few people sitting sparsely in the venue. Not long after, the empty seats in the venue were almost full.
This conference is very convenient for seeking cooperation. Most companies attach great importance to it, so there are not many people absent.
Suddenly, a fat man came to Tang Shuo's side. After he sat down, he set his eyes on Tang Shuo.
Tang Shuo frowned and looked straight at the podium, but he was hurriedly thinking of a countermeasure in his mind.
Almost all private enterprises in the entire Guangdong region came to attend the meeting. At first, he thought that there would be few people he knew who could attend the meeting, and as long as he didn't say anything, no one would notice anything unusual. Unexpectedly, someone noticed him.
The fat man looked at the name tag in front of Tang Shuo and asked in confusion, "Where is that kid Kaicheng?"
Tang Shuo heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the other party's question and replied, "Our boss had something to do, so he sent me here."
"That guy is really something." The fat man shook his head and leaned back in his chair and said, "He's out to meet his lover again. Isn't he afraid of the tigress at home getting angry?"
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make, so Tang Shuo just smiled and said nothing.
The fat man looked at Tang Shuo and said, "You look quite young, but it seems you have good business skills. It's not easy to be valued by Liu Kaicheng."
Tang Shuo scratched his head, glanced at the fat man, and said modestly, "It's okay."
It seems that this fat man has a good relationship with Liu Kaicheng. No one should doubt me if I sit with him.
Just as Tang Shuo and the fat man were chatting casually, several middle-aged men in suits and ties walked in, surrounded by a white-haired old man. This scene immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The fat man beside Tang Shuo smacked his lips in surprise and introduced him to Tang Shuo, "Do you know who that old man is?"
Tang Shuo smiled lightly, did not stop the other party's show-off, and shook his head and said, "I don't know."
"That guy's called Qiao Yong, the chairman of Vanke," the fat man said with admiration. "But why did he end up here? Even the person in charge of this exchange meeting has to look at his eyes."
"Oh." Tang Shuo agreed and asked, "Is he very powerful?"
The fat man rolled his eyes at Tang Shuo and asked, "He started from practically nothing and built Vanke, a company with nearly 10 billion in assets, in ten years. Don't you think that's impressive?"
"That's pretty impressive." Tang Shuo laughed, then looked at Qiao Bazhi coldly.
If the other party's influence wasn't so great, I could easily get rid of him.
But the current situation is not bad, he can eat away Qiao Bazhi step by step, making him gradually become the same as before, with nothing.
