As Wei Yandan spoke, she realized it wasn't quite right and changed her words, saying, "We're all old friends, and it's been a long time since we last met. I've specially invited Vice Mayor Liu to attend."
Director Zhang sensed that Lu Feng wasn't really buying it, so he could only nod and say, "I'll call and tell him. If anything goes wrong, you'll have to take responsibility yourselves. I've already been very considerate of you."
"Thank you for your consideration, Director Zhang. I'll be going now. Let General Manager Wang receive you." Wei Yandan looked around for a while and found a vice president to receive the director.
Du Guoying sat in the passenger seat, and Wei Yandan sat next to Lu Feng. Du Guoying turned around and said, "President Lu, those who were promoted in the second half of last year are not very familiar with you."
"What kind of director is this? Why does he talk to everyone like that?" Lu Feng frowned.
"The office director arranges some meetings and receptions. There are also many city meetings this year. We deal with the municipal government, but we don't have your kind of influence," Wei Yandan said with a wry smile.
Du Guoying couldn't help but say, "They just think the attitude is a bit bad. It's impossible for us to actually move the company. But President Lu is different. When he gets angry, he really leaves."
“From now on, attend fewer unnecessary meetings. We’re a private company; we’re after profits. Imagine going to a row of tables, two thermos flasks, a few ounces of tea, four leaders offering five suggestions, talking for six hours straight, leaving you completely bewildered, followed by a big drinking session. The next day, you wake up and realize it was all nonsense.” Lu Feng said irritably, “Let’s drive.”
Director Zhang went to headquarters and made a phone call back. Vice Mayor Liu answered the phone in his office and asked, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Xiao Zhang. Didn't you ask me to find the person in charge and the R&D head of Jiafeng? Here comes someone with a terrible temper, yelling and shouting, not letting General Manager Wei go, saying it's urgent and you should go to him, and that he's going to the restaurant first and you should go directly there," Director Zhang said into the phone.
"Who is it?" Vice Mayor Liu was getting annoyed. He had received the order from his superiors at around 5 a.m., and now it was almost 7 p.m., and he still hadn't gotten a clear answer to this matter. He was getting a little angry and asked, "What's wrong with coming over? It's a great thing for them. Others would be eager to come over but wouldn't even get a chance."
"He's a young man, what's his name again?" Director Zhang turned to Vice President Wang and asked.
"President Lu, Lu Feng!"
Director Wang turned to the phone and said, "He said his name is Lu Feng."
"Damn it, Lu... Lu Feng?" Vice Mayor Liu was speechless, his face showing some displeasure, but he forced it down and cleared his throat, asking, "Didn't they say which restaurant it was?"
"Huh?" Director Zhang was a little taken aback.
"I'm asking you, which restaurant is this? Can't you even handle this simple matter? Can't you even run an errand properly? How old are you? What's in your head? Shit?" the voice on the other end of the phone cursed angrily.
Director Zhang's face turned green from the scolding. He looked at Vice President Wang and asked about the restaurant. After telling him the restaurant's name, the call was disconnected.
Looking at Director Zhang's expression, Vice President Wang couldn't help but laugh. Did he really think that President Lu was like him? He said, "Director Zhang, not all bosses are the same. When I stroll around the factories, I'm all very powerful. They're all kings, but there are big and small kings."
"How arrogant can a private enterprise like yours be?" Director Wang said unhappily.
"Back in the day, this Mr. Lu was a very influential figure in Suzhou, driving the local economy. The guy back then was practically his brother. You can think about it yourself. I'm heading over now." Vice President Wang was too lazy to bother with him anymore.
Inside a large private room was a large table that could seat twenty-five people. The top twenty members of the management team, except for those who were away on business trips, were all present.
"This meal is on me today. We can't use company money. Jiafeng's achievements today are mainly due to everyone's hard work day and night," Lu Feng said politely.
The atmosphere was filled with polite exchanges and sycophancy. Du Guoying, observing the situation, whispered to Wei Yandan, "With President Zhu absent, the atmosphere is off. President Lu's words just now have been completely ignored."
Wei Yandan glanced at him and asked, "What will President Zhu say at the meeting?"
Du Guoying mimicked Zhu Lidong's voice and said, "We only did a little bit of work; it was mainly because President Lu was so good at deceiving people outside!"
Wei Yandan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
