Lu Feng is back!
The news spread rapidly, and for the local business community, he surprised many people in a short period of time, as if there was nothing he couldn't do!
Even Ren Qianbo, who was a son-in-law who married into the family, rose through the ranks step by step by relying on his father-in-law's connections. Lu Feng, in just half a year, has covered the ground that others have covered in decades.
How could this not be surprising? For those who know about Shirahara City, it's even more shocking; some people are destined to be different.
While eating and watching TV, Mr. Huang's mind was elsewhere. Every year at the end of the year, there is a local custom of inviting some wealthy businessmen and leaders to have a meal together.
Especially now that investment promotion is encouraged, more cooperation is needed. These kinds of dinners are usually attended by big bosses, either state-owned enterprises with mixed ownership or large companies that operate across provinces. Local small businesses generally don't go.
"Let's eat. What are you thinking about now? That factory owner again? I'm sick of hearing about him these past few days," said Mr. Huang's wife, annoyed.
"Do you think I should help him or not?"
"Aren't you leaving already? Help me or not, it's up to you!"
Mr. Huang put down his chopsticks and sighed, "This kind of talent is rare. It's just a dinner party; I'll lend a hand if I can!"
The next morning around nine o'clock, Lu Feng hadn't gotten up yet, but Duo Duo was already awake, jumping around on the bed. Jiang Xiaoyan was a little speechless, so she got up and said, "I'll go cook breakfast."
"Don't move!" Lu Feng pressed her down on the bed and looked at Duo Duo, saying, "Go out and play, I need to talk to Mom about something."
"No! No, you stinky daddy, you're bullying mommy, I'm not going out!"
"Don't you have any conscience? I bought you so many toys, and you're disobedient. I'll send you to kindergarten after the New Year," Lu Feng threatened.
"Mommy is mine, I won't give her to you!" the little guy said excitedly, clinging to Jiang Xiaoyan, hugging her neck, and deliberately saying, "I'll make you angry, I'll make you angry!"
Jiang Xiaoyan was amused by her quirky and clever appearance and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"This cotton-padded coat isn't really mine after all," Lu Feng sighed.
Jiang Xiaoyan's smile vanished abruptly. She slapped Lu Feng and glared at him. Duoduo also sensed something and sat there blankly. Back when she lived in the old house, the children downstairs called her a wild child.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Get up and cook dinner." Jiang Xiaoyan led Duoduo to the living room.
Lu Feng thought it was just a joke; what could a four-year-old child know? But when he saw Duo Duo sitting on the sofa, looking sullen, he sensed something different.
Lu Feng had never had a child, and he didn't know how to get along with a child. He had never experienced what it was like to be in a non-natal family. He got dressed and came out of the bedroom. He walked to Duo Duo's side, squatted down, and held her little hand.
"sorry!"
Jiang Xiaoyan never imagined that Lu Feng would apologize to a child, and she stood in the kitchen, staring blankly.
Tears began to well up in Duoduo's big eyes; her young heart felt wronged, a feeling she couldn't express.
"Forgive Daddy for all the toys I bought you," Lu Feng said, picking her up. The little one burst into tears.
The phone rang at home. Lu Feng, while coaxing Duo Duo, answered the phone, "Who is it?"
"Boss Lu, it's me, Huang Youwei. Why is your child crying over there?"
"Mr. Huang, it's been a long time. Yes, I'm taking care of the kids." Lu Feng smiled awkwardly and said, "I really have to thank you. If it weren't for your face, Zou Xiongfei wouldn't have been so polite to me. He even personally saw me off when I left. I'll treat you to a meal sometime."
"No need to be available. I have a dinner party the day after tomorrow night. There will be quite a few people there, all from big companies. Also, I'm being transferred."
"What? You're being transferred? Congratulations on your promotion!" Lu Feng said politely, then after a moment's thought, "Okay, I'll definitely go."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xiaoyan poked her head out and asked, "Who was that?"
"President Huang, what kind of dinner party do you want me to attend?" Lu Feng patted Duo Duo on the back, thinking to himself that this dinner party must be for someone important. Otherwise, why would he invite him after Duo Duo had been transferred? Clearly, he wanted to win Duo Duo over.
Aside from the children of the wealthy, no one is born with connections. However, many connections are formed gradually. Lu Feng knew that he had performed well, and President Huang wanted to cultivate this connection with him.
If it's a lateral transfer, I don't think I'll need it. It's more likely a promotion, like managing a city or something. When there's a need for investment attraction, they'll come knocking on my door.
It had been almost two months since he last went to the factory. Lu Feng ate with Duo Duo in his arms. The little one was cute, but she was incredibly messy while eating. Lu Feng handed her over to Jiang Xiaoyan and got up to change his clothes.
The area around the factory used to be barren, with several houses nearby that were uninhabited. Now, however, it's bustling with activity. Those houses have been converted into restaurants, and people come in droves to pick up goods.
The weather is cold now; if it were summer, there would probably be stalls everywhere. Jiaming Foods has managed to turn a barren place into a bustling market.
The factory is more standardized, and the ground is cleaner and tidier. Lu Feng even felt that Gao Zhiwei was just going through the motions of an inspection, and it was much better than when he left.
"Hello, Mr. Lu!"
"Good morning, factory manager!"
"Good morning, Chairman!"
The variety of titles was dazzling, and Lu Feng responded to them one by one. In the old workshop, everyone knew him, but now all the faces walking towards him were strangers.
This factory is already at full capacity. It's not easy for him to even recognize all the managers, let alone all the employees.
