On the way back, Huang Youwei told Lu Feng to talk to General Manager Zhou again. This was the result of multi-faceted mediation. If the post and telecommunications department really couldn't reach an agreement, they would need to be prepared for both possibilities. If the province was willing to do this, they would definitely provide the funds.
Lu Feng nodded and said, "Can't we talk to the information department about this? It should be easy to talk to the provincial authorities, right?"
The car had already stopped at the entrance of the municipal government building. Huang Youwei glanced at Lu Feng and said, "No need to trouble you. I've arrived. I'll have the driver take you to the hotel."
After Huang Youwei finished speaking, he got out of the car.
The car door closed, and Lu Feng leaned back in his seat and sighed, "This is really troublesome!"
The driver turned the car around and said, "You really dared to say that, telling the provincial government to contact the information department. You're going to go to higher-ups for such a small matter. What do they think of that?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Feng immediately realized that the provincial government was going to the information department, and the higher-ups were probably starting to question Secretary Li's capabilities.
"You're right. I was so focused on my own things that I forgot about that. I really didn't realize you were so capable," Lu Feng said with a smile.
"You get used to it from what you see and hear. Driving for a boss, you have to think a lot more." The driver didn't say anything more and drove straight to the hotel entrance.
As he walked past the front desk, the young woman there saw Lu Feng and said, "Mr. Lu, you're back? Someone's looking for you!"
Two men in their thirties were sitting at a rest area not far away. When they heard that Lu Feng had returned, they stood up and walked over. One of them, a fat man, said, "Mr. Lu from Jiafeng Group, right?"
"Who are you two?" Lu Feng looked at the two of them, slightly puzzled.
"Let me introduce myself. My surname is Tan, and this is Wang. We recently heard that you're interested in collaborating with the Post and Telecommunications Group, so we'd like to discuss it with you." The fat man asked Lu Feng, "How about it? Is it convenient?"
Lu Feng sized up the two men and asked, "Who are you? Do you have these connections?"
“We’ve come to you because we have connections,” Fatty Tan said with a smile. “How about we have dinner together tonight? I’ll introduce you to someone.”
"Sure!" Lu Feng thought for a moment and said, "Let's do it here, it's on me."
"No need, we've already made all the arrangements. Let's go now," Fatty Tan said, preparing to walk towards the door.
Lu Feng was stunned. He didn't know anything about these two people. If something happened, it would be a big deal. These days, it's not too peaceful, but it's not peaceful either. Horrifying cases appear in the newspapers from time to time.
Seeing that Lu Feng hadn't moved, the skinny man surnamed Wang said, "What? Afraid we'll eat you?"
"No, it's not that bad. It's just that I'm not familiar with either of you, and it's getting dark. So let's stay here and I'll treat you." Lu Feng said to the two of them, "If you think it's too late tonight, we can do it another day."
"Since Mr. Lu is worried, then you can go there yourself. Wenxin Pavilion Teahouse, the private room on the fourth floor." After saying that, Fatty Tan turned around and left.
Lu Feng inquired with the receptionist and learned that the Wenxin Pavilion teahouse was located in the bustling city center, so there shouldn't be any major problems. After leaving the building, he hailed a taxi and sped away.
As night falls, the antique-style building of Wenxin Pavilion Teahouse, illuminated by neon lights, is particularly dazzling. To the average person, it's hard to imagine how such a teahouse makes a living. On weekdays, you rarely see customers coming and going, yet it has never closed down in recent years.
Fatty Tan and Skinny Wang are the owners of this teahouse. Although only a few people come to this kind of place every week, they can make a lot of money over a year.
When Lu Feng arrived at the location, a beautiful and elegant young woman in a cheongsam led him upstairs. The fourth floor had several large private rooms separated by screens, decorated in an antique style.
When I got upstairs, I saw Fatty Tan and Skinny Wang waiting there.
"Oh, you've come quite quickly!" Fatty Tan stood up and said, "Please sit down. But Young Master Zhou hasn't arrived yet, so you'll have to wait a while. Have a cup of tea first. The kitchen is already busy preparing it; it'll be ready in a bit."
"Hey you, bring out some tea leaves that cost 100,000 yuan per kilogram and brew some for President Lu."
Lu Feng didn't stand on ceremony and sat down, looking at the two of them and asking, "Who is this Young Master Zhou?"
"President Lu, we know you have a good relationship with Secretary Huang, and you've come here to develop your telecommunications business." Ignoring Lu Feng's words, Fatty Tan asked him, "Right?"
"You guys are really well-informed," Lu Feng said with a smile and a nod. "What advice do you have?"
"I'm a lazy bum, what advice could I possibly have? I just wanted to make a deal with you. Everyone has their own way of doing things. As for communications, you've really gone to the wrong place by going to Huang Youwei." Fatty Tan lit a cigarette and handed one to Lu Feng, saying, "I have connections! If you find the right person, you can get big results with little money. If you find the wrong person, you can spend money and still not get things done."
"I can tell that President Tan is a very influential person," Lu Feng said, lighting a cigarette. "I should feel honored that you came to see me in person."
While we were talking, the waiter brought over several sets of exquisite tea sets, skillfully took out a beautifully packaged tea cake, brewed the tea, and then served several exquisite tea snacks.
“President Lu, this is a century-old Da Hong Pao tea tree. There’s only one of these trees on Wuyi Mountain. We usually wouldn’t bring it out to just any friend.” Wang Shouzi chimed in, “This is a rare find that money can’t buy. You should try it.”
Lu Feng looked at the tea, took a small sip. He didn't know much about tea, but to set the mood, he could only say it was good.
"Cooperating with the Post and Telecommunications Group isn't actually that difficult. The key is that you have to be able to see the opportunity. If you're not, this will be a difficult matter," Wang Shouzi advised from the side.
