"Hurry! Send the best wine to the King's table! All ingredients must be of the highest standard! If this gentleman is even slightly dissatisfied, you won't get a single penny of your year-end bonus!" Liu Guang shouted excitedly.
This gentleman is one of Marriott's few top-tier VIPs; he's the owner of Long Wu!
He knew everything about Long Wu's background. If you angered Master Long Wu, it wouldn't just be a matter of being fired; you might lose your head!
In no time, all the good wine and food were served on the table.
Liu Guang personally delivered a bottle of Moutai.
"Sir, please enjoy your meal. If there's anything you're not satisfied with, please let me know!" Liu Guang placed the wine on the table and bowed respectfully to Lin Yu.
"It's fine, go ahead!" Lin Yu waved his hand impatiently. It wasn't his money today, so he didn't need to show up.
"Lin Yu, do you know the Marriott manager?" Lu Xueqing was surprised to see this when she returned from the restroom.
"Sis, come on, how could he possibly know the manager? I heard that Brother Haitao is a Silver VIP here, so he's probably just doing this because of Brother Haitao!" Lu Xiaoya said, pouting.
Zhang Ailan nodded in agreement, "That's right, this meal must have cost at least several hundred thousand yuan, so it's only right that the manager comes to the main table to greet them!"
"Look, Grandma's here!"
Just then, everyone looked towards the entrance and saw Lu Haitao helping the old lady into the banquet hall.
"Everyone, please don't be shy, please sit down!"
Grandma came to the front of the stage and picked up the microphone.
"As everyone knows, Xueqing secured a 1 billion yuan project for our Lu family last time, but there was a slight mishap at the celebration banquet. This time, we'll make up for it for Xueqing!"
The old lady beckoned, and the servants quickly brought over a wine glass.
The old lady led the way by raising her glass, "Come on, everyone, let's raise our glasses to Xueqing, the great heroine of our Lu family!"
"Jing Xueqing, a great contributor to our Lu family!" everyone shouted in unison.
Lu Xueqing stood up tremblingly, truly overwhelmed with excitement.
She had never had such a shining moment in all her years at the company.
After downing a glass of wine, the old lady continued, "Today, I also have something to announce. Xueqing secured the Xiongfeng project for us, laying the foundation for the Lu family's rapid development. I discussed with the board of directors and decided to award Xueqing 20% of the equity!"
"Someone come here! Bring me the agreement!"
The old lady waved her hand, and an assistant quickly brought over the prepared agreement.
Everyone else was incredibly envious.
Twenty percent of the shares! The dividends alone amount to millions every year!
Uncle Lu Zhengxun's eyes were practically spitting fire.
Lu Xueqing excitedly stepped forward to take it.
Just then, a servant came to Lu Haitao's ear and whispered something.
Lu Haitao's expression changed, and he quickly shouted, "Grandma, wait a minute!"
The old lady paused, then frowned. "Haitao, what are you trying to do? Have you forgotten what I told you before?"
She knew that her grandson would definitely be unhappy if she gave Xueqing shares.
But in order to secure the Xiongfeng project, there was no other way.
"Grandma, take a look at this first!"
Lu Haitao sneered, quickly opened the Jintiao app, found a news article, and handed it to the old lady.
The old lady asked her assistant to bring her reading glasses, and after taking a look, she was immediately stunned.
After watching the news, the old lady's expression shifted between light and dark. Finally, she took off her glasses and said, "I've been thinking about it, and the matter of giving Xueqing shares still needs further consideration!"
Wow!
The scene erupted in uproar.
Is the old lady having second thoughts?
"Grandma, didn't you promise me? Why..."
Lu Xueqing stood up with a grim expression.
"Hehe, why? Let me tell you!"
Lu Haitao sneered and said loudly, "Just now, Xiongfeng Group was exposed for having debt problems, with debts of 20 billion! Now that the capital chain has been broken, do you think Xiongfeng can still deliver on its 1 billion investment project to our Lu family?"
"What??"
When this news broke, the entire audience was in an uproar once again.
Everyone pulled out their phones and quickly checked.
"As expected, Xiongfeng is facing a debt crisis!"
"They owe over 20 billion! My God!"
"The bank has frozen all of Xiongfeng's accounts!"
"Madam Lin immediately clarified that Xiongfeng had already changed hands long ago! It has absolutely no connection with the Governor's Mansion!"
"Hey, who is Mrs. Lin? Seeing that things were going badly, she probably withdrew long ago. The new chairman will definitely have to take the blame!"
Everyone was talking about it. Who would have thought that such a big scandal would happen to the leading enterprise in Fengshi!
"Haha! Lu Xueqing, you were just using Xiongfeng's project to blackmail Grandma, weren't you? Now that Xiongfeng has collapsed, do you think you're still a hot commodity? You still want equity? Dream on!"
Lu Haitao snatched the share certificate from the old lady's assistant and tore it in half with a tear.
Lu Xueqing's face was pale.
She just secured a 1 billion yuan project from Xiongfeng, how could this be...?
Lin Yu frowned as well; even he hadn't expected this.
At this time, Zhang Miao also called him, probably because of this matter, but he did not answer because he was worried about his wife.
Lu Haitao helped the old lady down from the stage.
The old lady looked bewildered.
She had incredibly high expectations for this project. She originally thought that securing the Xiongfeng project would be the beginning of the Lu family's rise, but it all came to nothing immediately.
