As soon as he said that, Liu Cheng instantly became the focus of the entire room. Zhao Yanran and Hao Ge were also stunned and looked up at Liu Cheng, not expecting that Lu Feng had this kind of relationship.
The crowd parted to make way, and Liu Cheng led his men inside.
"These are your men? Is this all you brought?" Hao Ge lit a cigarette and shouted, "What kind of president are you?"
"Liu Cheng, head of Jiafeng Electronics R&D Company!" This was the first time Liu Cheng had ever been involved in something like this, and he spoke without much confidence.
He was a model student from childhood to adulthood, smoothly getting into university and then studying abroad. He was a true high achiever, and had never seen a lowly scoundrel like Brother Hao before.
"Brother, don't be a coward when you stand up for someone, don't let your legs tremble!" Hao Ge teased, already seeing through his tough exterior but weak interior.
The people around burst into laughter. Looking at Liu Cheng, who wore glasses and had a refined appearance, he didn't seem like the kind of person who could solve problems.
With only a few people, they're no match for us in a real fight.
The crowd grew larger and larger, with some people even holding skewers in one hand and beer in the other while watching the excitement. A woman in her thirties squeezed in, followed by two pretty girls.
"What's wrong?" the woman asked the woman beside her.
"It looks like a fight, Sister Wu. Let's not get involved."
"Didn't you hear there was a boss?" Sister Wu looked at Liu Cheng, but didn't remember him. However, when she looked at Lu Feng, she recognized him immediately. Wasn't he the small business owner who had dinner with President Xu and President Hao that day?
"Has he gotten into trouble?" Sister Wu pointed at Lu Feng.
The person next to her nodded and explained what had happened. The young girl behind her hurriedly asked, "Sister Wu, do you know her?"
"I've had dinner with several big bosses, and he was with them. I could tell at the time that he wasn't a big boss. I didn't expect him to be a small factory owner with only a few million in assets," Sister Wu said with a hint of disdain.
In her eyes, anyone with assets of less than tens of millions is a small business owner. She had been wandering around the cosmetics market these past two days and had heard some things about Lu Feng.
"Don't be fooled by him, he's just a small business owner who frequents drinking parties and knows a few CEOs," Sister Wu said.
Upon hearing this, Lu Feng looked at Sister Wu and, after a moment's thought, remembered that she was the one who had been having dinner with President Xu, President Hao, and their group. She was an eloquent and persuasive guest, and he hadn't expected to run into her here.
When Sister Wu saw him looking at her, she said to the two girls beside her, "This person was in the top management department back then. These days, all sorts of people are mixed together, so you have to learn to judge people. Once you misjudge someone, you're finished."
The two little girls nodded repeatedly, "This is all knowledge!"
A chorus of boos erupted from the crowd. They had assumed he was a big boss, but it turned out he was someone who worked for a big boss, which terrified them.
Hao sneered when he heard this, threw his cigarette butt on the ground, grabbed an unopened bottle of beer, stood up, walked up to Lu Feng, and smashed the beer bottle against the corner of the table.
"Bang!"
Beer bottles shattered on the floor, accompanied by broken glass. He pointed at Lu Feng with the bottle handle and said, "I gave you plenty of time and chances, but you're fucking useless. What are you pretending for? Let me tell you, you're no match for me, understand?"
"What if I join you? Is that enough?" A confident shout came from outside the crowd.
Everyone turned to look outside, wondering who this person was.
A man in his forties or fifties, somewhat overweight with a beer belly, walked over with eight or nine people behind him and said in a deep voice, "Hong Wanquan, Chairman of Wanquan Real Estate!"
"Whoa!!"
The crowd gasped in amazement. Another CEO, and he looks incredibly wealthy!
Hao Ge panicked a little and looked at Zhao Yanran. Wasn't she supposed to be an out-of-towner? How come she had so many connections in the local area, and they were all wealthy CEOs?
Zhao Yanran was also a little dumbfounded, wondering where two bosses had suddenly appeared.
Before the two could react, another voice rang out from outside the crowd.
"And then there's me, Tian Jun, chairman of Fengjun Company!"
"Hao Junren, Chairman of Fudi Group!"
"Liu Jiangyue, Chairman of Tianyi Company!"
"Li Wanhe, Chairman of Wanhe Industrial!"
...
One name after another was called out, each name like a heavy hammer blow to the hearts of everyone present. The feeling of being struck by lightning left everyone's minds blank.
Zhao Yanran was stunned. What was going on? This dilapidated barbecue street looked like a corporate gathering.
Hao Ge's hand trembled as he gripped the bottle, repeatedly thinking, "I'm just a scoundrel, what are you doing? This is outrageous! Are entrepreneurs ganging up to fight these days?"
Sister Wu's face turned pale. The words she had just spoken to the two girls behind her now felt like a slap in the face to herself.
"Sister Wu...didn't you say he was a small business owner?"
"This boss doesn't seem like a small business owner, except for his young age!"
Sister Wu's mind was racing, replaying the events of that night. President Hao and President Xu were mainly focused on Liu Quan, while Lu Feng sat there quietly eating, barely making an impression.
I misjudged it!
She was absolutely wrong. She'd been at dinner parties for years and had met all sorts of big bosses, but this was the first time she'd misjudged someone so well that someone like President Xu and President Hao would come to his aid on the street.
She couldn't believe what kind of person this was.
At this moment, only two words remain in my mind: a superstar, an absolute superstar!
