Chapter 87 Big Shot
When Gu Jingcheng looked up,
The figure at the doorway blocked Lin Wei's face.
He only saw a blue figure.
Not wanting to spoil Qin Simiao's fun, he gave a perfunctory response.
"Hmm, it looks alright."
Qin Simiao quickly walked towards Shao Chengyu and Lin Wei.
"Old Shao, beautiful Lin, you've arrived."
"I'll introduce you to my uncle."
He's a big shot in Jiangcheng, his company is incredibly successful!
As she spoke, she pulled Shao Chengyu toward Gu Jingcheng.
Lin Wei could only passively follow along.
At this time,
Old Master Qin was helped to stand on the banquet stage by Qin Mingjie.
The waiter brought over an eight-tiered peach-shaped cake.
Qin Mingjie, with his sharp eyes, spotted Qin Simiao in the audience and whispered in his wife Fan Huijuan's ear.
"Go and call our son over so he can help his grandfather cut the cake."
Lin Wei and Shao Chengyu had only taken a couple of steps when Fan Huijuan blocked their way.
With a smile on his face, he nodded apologetically to Shao Chengyu and Lin Wei.
"Mr. Shao, Ms. Lin, I'm so sorry to interrupt your conversation."
"I'll take Si Miao to the stage first; you can do as you please."
Then, she reached out and grabbed Qin Simiao's wrist.
"Si Miao, come with me."
"Mom! I'm taking a friend to meet my uncle! Just a little while, just a little while..."
"Not even for a moment!"
Fan Huijuan maintained her grip, turning her head slightly as she walked, whispering instructions.
"Today is Grandpa's birthday. He loves you the most, so be good and stand next to him on stage later."
"Behave yourself, try to make him happy, you hear me?"
"knew"
Qin Simiao reluctantly followed Fan Huijuan onto the stage.
Gu Jingcheng, standing in the distance, looked at that patch of blue; it seemed somewhat familiar, but only for a moment.
His view was blocked by several middle-aged men who were chatting with him.
This is a rare occurrence for a big shot like him to make an appearance in Ancheng.
The executives were all flattering him, afraid of missing this opportunity.
Gu Jingcheng avoids formal and polite social interactions.
Lin Wei stopped in her tracks and immediately spotted the old man on the stage wearing a dark red Tang suit.
Although he is 60 years old, he is full of energy.
She was thinking to herself that she would find an opportunity to try and secure the project later.
Old Master Qin is a man of his word. When it comes to projects, his word is more effective than going through official channels and talking yourself hoarse.
She wasn't unprepared.
Mr. Qin enjoys collecting jade and antiques.
To cater to his tastes, she spared no expense, acquiring items from renowned collectors...
I acquired an ancient jade pendant.
It is said to be a fine piece that left over from the imperial workshops of the previous dynasty.
The jade is delicate, white, and oily.
Most importantly, this is a one-of-a-kind piece, making it highly collectible.
Grandpa Qin will like it.
on stage.
With his son Qin Mingjie's help, Grandpa Qin picked up the long knife for cutting the cake.
Qin Simiao forced a smile and supported her grandfather's other arm.
A round of applause erupted from the audience.
Lin Wei observed the situation on the observation platform, waiting for the right opportunity.
-
The banquet was halfway through,
Lin Wei was absent-minded.
Several times, Shao Chengyu called her, but she was slow to respond.
I smiled apologetically at him.
"Excuse me, I need to use the restroom."
Lin Wei was holding her handbag.
Walk straight through the bustling banquet hall,
Walk towards the relatively quiet courtyard area at the back of the villa.
As she expected, the old man preferred peace and quiet.
After cutting the cake, Grandpa Qin made tea in the yard.
Lin Wei's high heels clicked on the uneven cobblestone path, and she felt a little uneasy.
I wonder if this old man Qin is easy to talk to.
She straightened her skirt and stopped a few steps away from Old Master Qin, her attitude respectful.
"Good evening, Mr. Qin. I apologize for disturbing your enjoyment of tea."
Old Master Qin was pouring tea when he heard the sound and looked up.
His sharp gaze, peering through his reading glasses, fell upon Lin Wei, scrutinizing her.
He had seen too many young people trying to get close to him at banquets, most of whom had ulterior motives.
Lin Wei knew the opportunity was fleeting, so she got straight to the point.
"Hello, I am Lin Wei, the person in charge of the Lin Group in Jiangcheng."
"I came here for the Qin Group's chip manufacturing project bidding."
The Lin Group has been deeply involved in the fields of precision manufacturing and microelectronics for many years.
It has a mature process technology team and a cleanroom that meets international standards.
We sincerely hope that the Qin Group will consider our company.
Then, Lin Wei took out a business card from her bag, adopting a very humble attitude.
Old Master Qin put down his teacup and looked at Lin Wei's face.
Her ambition surprised Mr. Qin.
He gestured for her to place her business card on the tea table.
I glanced at it.
"Lin Wei - General Manager of Lin's Group"
A hint of surprise flashed in Old Master Qin's eyes.
Judging by his age, the young man was only two or three years older than his unruly grandson, Qin Simiao.
That would be enough to support a chip manufacturing company that was already quite well-known in Jiangcheng.
"The Lin Group?"
Seeing an opportunity, Lin Wei quickly added to the discussion.
"Yes, our company has a history of more than 20 years since its founding."
We have also undertaken other chip manufacturing projects and have extensive experience in this area.
Old Master Qin somewhat admired Lin Wei's boldness.
She dared to come alone and talk to him directly.
If Qin Simiao had half of her ambition, he would be laughing in his sleep.
If the project is handed over to the Lin family, they can send that brat Qin Simiao to Jiangcheng!
It would also allow him to escape the clutches of his cronies in Ancheng and learn some real skills.
Look at how these young people build their careers!
This is much better than locking him up at home and lecturing him.
Moreover, the subsidiary prepared for Qin Simiao is of the same type as the Lin Group.
Let him first join Lin's company as a client to learn experience; it will also benefit his future management of the company.
Old Master Qin put Lin Wei's business card into his inner pocket.
"Miss Lin, I understand the situation you described."
I will consider the project.
Seeing that Old Master Qin had accepted the business card and the business was over, Lin Wei took out the brocade box from her handbag.
"Mr. Qin, I wish you boundless happiness and longevity."
Old Master Qin frowned.
He dislikes mixing personal gifts into serious conversations.
He wanted to refuse outright, but when his gaze swept over the brocade box Lin Wei had opened, the words of refusal stuck in his throat.
Inside the brocade box was an ancient jade pendant.
The knife work is exquisite, and the patina is thick and natural.
He had always wanted a jade pendant like this!
I couldn't resist reaching out and taking it, then holding it in mid-air and looking at it again and again.
The guarded look on his face faded, replaced by a gentle smile.
He was so fond of the jade pendant that he couldn't put it down.
"This kind of jade pendant is very rare, thank you Miss Lin."
-
Back in the banquet hall, Lin Wei felt much more relaxed.
Shao Chengyu walked over carrying a small piece of cake.
"I noticed you haven't eaten anything,"
Lin Wei was indeed a little hungry, so she took it.
"Thank you, Mr. Shao."
Lin Wei was eating her cake with her head down, while Shao Chengyu's gaze was fixed on her face.
A wave of tenderness washed over me.
Qin Simiao had just finished her work, but she didn't forget to introduce Shao Chengyu to Gu Jingcheng.
Gu Jingcheng rarely comes to Ancheng, and after tonight, he won't have this opportunity again.
He spotted Shao Chengyu and Lin Wei in the crowd and ran up to them.
Grab Shao Chengyu's arm,
"Old Shao! Come on, let me introduce you to my uncle."
My uncle is going back to Jiangcheng after tonight.
Shao Chengyu grabbed Lin Wei's wrist and pulled her forward. Lin Wei frowned, trying to shake him off.
But holding a cake in one hand is a bit inconvenient.
She was curious about what Qin Simiao kept bringing up.
Who is this important figure from Jiangcheng, my uncle?
