Arriving at the Peace Hotel where the banquet was being held, I hadn't seen any celebrities or superstars yet, but the group of reporters gathered at the entrance was impossible to ignore.
After Jin Zichu got out of the car, he turned sideways to block Xu Manman, but was still discovered by the sharp-eyed reporters.
"Professor Xu, you and your husband spent a million dollars in the VIP room today. Can you tell me which stocks you are optimistic about?"
Xu Manman was a little surprised when she saw the microphone extended from behind. First, she was surprised that they actually knew her. You know, although she has become very famous in the education field in recent years and has published many papers, she has hardly ever appeared in front of the media, let alone Hai Shi.
Most people who come here are gathering with friends and family or on vacation, but these reporters recognized her at a glance and even knew that she spent one million to open an account in the VIP room. She is indeed worthy of being a media journalist.
Jin Zichu turned to look at the reporter and said, "The stocks currently issued domestically are very promising. My wife and I also hope that domestic enterprises and the economy will continue to develop better and better."
After a very official speech, he quickly took his wife around the revolving glass door and entered the Peace Hotel.
In the hall, there were already arranged reception staff waiting there, and reporters were not allowed to enter.
Jin Zichu handed over the invitation, and someone immediately came to lead them in.
"Professor Xu, Mr. Jin, this way please."
Entering the banquet hall, Jin Zichu took off the silk scarf from his wife's shoulders, and the sharp-eyed waiter immediately stepped forward to take it.
In the spacious conference hall, the crystal chandeliers shone brightly under the refraction of lights, and in the center of the venue stood men and women in formal attire.
Xu Manman was dazed for a moment, as if she had dreamed back to the legendary foreign concessions and the glamorous Shanghai at night.
Before she could be lost in thought for too long, the person in charge she had met in the morning came over and greeted her, "Professor Xu, Mr. Jin, good evening."
Xu Manman usually leaves this kind of business communication to Jin Zichu. Her setting tonight is a beautiful vase.
While Jin Zichu was greeting the person in charge, Xu Manman looked around.
Well... there is still food. Today's banquet is very trendy and imitates the format of a Western buffet dinner. Various delicacies are placed around the edge of the venue.
Maybe everyone was rather reserved. Xu Manman looked around and saw that very few people were holding trays to get food.
Just as I was looking for a good place to rest later, my eyes met with someone's.
The visitor looked at Xu Manman in surprise and walked over quickly, "Teacher, you are here."
This person was none other than Xu Manman's first batch of graduate students, the one stationed in Hong Kong by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation. "Qingshan? You're back?"
This student has been in Gang City since graduation and has no time to come back during the holidays. The last time was at the end of last year when Xu Manman and Jin Zichu went to Gang City and made a quick appointment to meet him.
"Well, I'm here on behalf of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange."
"Oh, you were transferred back to the Special Administrative Region? That's great news, congratulations." Xu Manman congratulated sincerely.
After teaching her for three years, she knew her own student. Ruan Qingshan was only three years younger than her, but he had very high IQ and EQ. It was only a matter of time before such a person would make a name for himself wherever he went.
Being transferred from the Hong Kong office to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, which is about to open, is definitely a promotion.
Ruan Qingshan restrained himself and smiled, and politely greeted his master Jin Zichu, "Hello, master."
Then he continued to talk to the teacher, "Although it's not that close to home, it's at least convenient. I heard that the teacher was invited this time, so I took the initiative to apply to come here. Is the teacher in Hai City recently? Can you leave your address so I can visit you tomorrow?"
In fact, he knew that the Shanghai Stock Exchange had invited Professor Xu, so he volunteered to come. He was delayed during the day and it was almost noon when he arrived at the Shanghai Stock Exchange. When he arrived, he found out that Professor Xu and his wife had already finished their business and left.
"Okay." Xu Manman skillfully took out a notepad and a pen from Jin Zichu's suit pocket and wrote down the address of Courtyard No. 5 and the address of the Xu family's villa.
"Your master and I are both living at the address above. If you can't find him, you can look for him at the address below. However, there's no telephone installed there yet."
Ruan Qingshan took a look at the note, memorized the contents, and then carefully put it in his pocket.
"Okay, teacher."
Jin Zichu asked, "Qingshan, how long will you stay in Hai City?" The filial husband who has always been around Xu Manman has naturally become familiar with his wife's students.
