The average age of the people present was around forty, so a young man in his twenties would definitely stand out.
The conference was scheduled to start at 10:00 AM, and Lu Feng left the company at 9:00 AM. However, his car got a flat tire halfway there. There was no village or shop in sight, and not even a phone booth nearby.
With no other option, Lu Feng had to change the spare tire himself. As he took out his tools from the trunk to change the tire, he discovered that there were many nails scattered on the ground.
The tire was punctured by a nail.
Lu Feng immediately became alert and looked around. He didn't see any repair shops nearby, and there were no trees on either side of the road, so there was no way to hide anyone.
Lu Feng looked around and figured it was probably some kind of prank by kids.
...............
At the entrance of the conference, three young men in their twenties were dressed very formally, with their hair neatly combed and styled with hair gel. Dressed in suits and ties, they looked like they had achieved fame at a young age.
"Will this work? Will they need an invitation to get in? We'll be doomed if we get stopped at the door," a round-faced man said nervously.
"How could I not have thought of this?" The man with the oval face took out an invitation, opened it and glanced at it. It clearly stated that he was Lu Feng, the chairman of Jiafeng Electronic Technology Co., Ltd.
“I’ve studied all his methods. This guy is definitely skilled. Let’s use his methods to trick him. Even if he changes the tire himself, it will take him more than half an hour. With the time he has to get here, it will take him at least an hour.”
The two nodded.
"Think about it, in this one hour, so many people are trying to curry favor with me, all wanting to do business with me. All I have to do is tell them that I own a small factory that produces auto parts, subtly implying that if they want to do business with me, they should buy our parts. What do you think those people will do then?"
"Excellent, President Yan. You're definitely going to be a big shot in the business world. Your brain is truly unbeatable."
“I also found out that the CEO of Jiafeng Electronics used to do this. If he can use this trick against others, we can use it against him.”
"Let's go, let's go in quickly!"
"Wait a minute, you two are my secretaries. Be mindful of your status and stand behind me."
The two men stood behind the young man surnamed Yan. Then, Mr. Yan, with his head held high and chest out, walked over with an arrogant and disdainful expression, his hands behind his back.
He felt that Lu Feng, being so young, must have a very strong presence as a CEO.
"Sir, please show me your invitation!" the receptionist said sweetly.
Mr. Yan frowned, coughed, gestured with his chin towards the person behind him, and said, "You have no sense at all."
"Yes, yes, Mr. Lu, I'm sorry!"
The person behind him was so frightened that he cowered and hurriedly took out the invitation and handed it over.
The receptionist glanced at it and saw that it said Jiafeng Electronics. She was also taken aback. The boss she had heard about the most today was this boss. Many bosses had asked about him when they came.
She had initially thought he was a handsome and dashing up-and-coming talent, but she was surprised to find that he was pretentious and arrogant despite his young age.
Feeling quite disappointed, he still managed a smile and said, "Mr. Lu, please come in!"
"Hmph, you don't even recognize me and dare to stop me? Are you blind? Let me tell you, it's only because I'm in a good mood today. Otherwise, if I got angry, you'd all be finished!" President Yan said as he strode in with his pigeon-toed gait.
The young women at the reception desk were dumbfounded; this guy was just too much...
They cursed inwardly, thinking to themselves, "What a poor man who suddenly becomes rich, so arrogant and domineering!"
As Mr. Yan stepped into the venue, some people were already seated, some were gathered in small groups exchanging business cards, and some old friends were chatting together.
Mr. Yan walked up to the group of people and coughed once: "Cough cough cough!"
A dozen or so people turned their attention to him, looking him up and down, wondering who he was.
Seeing that no one was flattering him, General Manager Yan gave a wink to the people around him. The man next to him immediately understood, stepped forward, and shouted sternly, "Can't you see General Manager Lu is here? What are you all standing there for?"
Mr. Lu?
The round-faced man at the far end was the first to react, and hurriedly said with a smile, "You must be the chairman of Jiafeng Electronics? It's an honor to meet you. I didn't expect you to be so young. I am..."
As the man spoke, he reached out and stepped forward to shake hands.
The people around President Yan quickly stepped in to block him, and scolded, "You're not allowed to shake President Lu's hand. Stand there properly!"
The people present were stunned. Wasn't this young CEO Lu a bit too arrogant?
