Seeing Lu Feng smile, General Manager Huang quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Let's go, let's go find trouble with him. He doesn't even know Boss Lu. Doesn't he know that you, Boss Lu, are a very influential figure in the second half of this year?"
Huang Youwei coaxed and coaxed Lu Feng, who naturally stopped being angry. He still had to give Jiang Xiaoyan face, afraid that she would catch a cold. In addition, he also thought that the long dress was too sexy, so he let her wear the down jacket.
"It's an honor to have Mr. Huang here. Congratulations on your promotion." He Qugong walked over with his hands clasped in front of him and said with a big smile, "If you want to see Mr. Huang in the future, you'll probably have to go to the municipal government."
"I invited a friend over to support you, and you're so ungrateful, leaving his whole family to freeze outside?" Mr. Huang asked directly.
Mr. He had just seen Huang Youwei trying to persuade Lu Feng and knew he should come over and ask, but he didn't expect him to be so direct. Feeling a little embarrassed, he looked at Lu Feng and said, "I'm really sorry, I don't know him. I apologize to Mr. Lu."
Lu Feng stood there without saying a word, glancing at the group of people beside him. They had been chatting animatedly just moments before, but now they stood there silent.
"Mr. He, you're in a job where you have to put on a smiling face. If you're a middleman, you should have the awareness of a middleman. There are some things that you can't understand. Don't put on a different face to everyone. To put it bluntly, the reason these people are gathered here today is not because of you, but because of others. You're just a middleman."
"Yes, yes, yes, this is a mess. I'll have to drink three cups of wine as punishment later." He Qugong was a little embarrassed, but Huang Youwei had already received the transfer order. Let alone confronting him, even if he was beaten, he could handle it tonight. Without any worries, Huang Youwei was invincible.
"Please, go ahead!" He Qugong gestured for him to enter.
"Come on, let's go inside. It's cold outside, don't let the child get cold." General Manager Huang smiled at Duo Duo and stepped inside.
After Lu Feng and his group went inside, He Qugong straightened up. A few people next to him muttered, "What's so great about someone from a steel group?"
"He got promoted, he'll leave after the New Year, and now he doesn't respect anyone."
"They're all like this. In the last month or two before they're transferred, they act like they own the place and can criticize whoever they want."
"Alright, shut up!" He Qugong frowned and shouted, "You two wait here for someone. I'm going in. Remember to call me if any important people come."
The interior is brightly lit, and the floor-to-ceiling windows make it feel exceptionally grand. Inside is a huge reception room, and further in you can see some food and beverages, displayed in a dazzling array, giving it the feel of a high-end buffet from a later era.
But now it's all very high-class. Everyone has a small plate and a wine glass, which is definitely more pretentious than sitting in Starbucks in later generations.
Duo Duo stared wide-eyed at the abundance of food, clearly shocked. Jiang Xiaoyan looked around and whispered, "This place is so luxurious! Are all those things free to eat?"
"Yeah, we're here, and we have to pay for food?" Lu Feng said with a smile.
"How much must that person eat tonight? That person is quite rich; they can afford to eat and drink for free."
"It's just a little money. Others can make ten times that amount from this one meal. You take Duoduo and just grab something to eat," Lu Feng instructed.
"Mom, I want to eat that," Duoduo said, pointing to the roast duck not far away.
"You child, don't point randomly!" Jiang Xiaoyan scolded.
"What does a child like her know? It's alright, eat whatever you want." Seeing that Jiang Xiaoyan was a little nervous, Lu Feng told her to treat it like she was at home. These people were just trying to build relationships, and nobody cared.
Jiang Xiaoyan led Duoduo over, and Lu Feng turned around to offer President Huang a cigarette, asking, "President Huang, where have you been transferred to?"
"I don't know yet. I guess he's going to the south. If President Lu goes to the south to open a factory, he'll have to think of me. I'm already starting to have a headache about attracting investment."
Don't worry, I'll definitely help you if I can!
"Zou Xiongfei called me a few days ago and kept praising you, saying you have a bright future." General Manager Huang sat on the sofa next to him, flicked some cigarette ash, and said, "You handled this matter brilliantly. The province has started to pay attention. Business groups like Jin Sanzhong and Qian Zhongnan are local cancers, but they are difficult to deal with. If you touch them, the local industries will all collapse. You cooperated with Zou Xiongfei to successfully perform a surgical operation."
"You flatter me, I was just doing it for myself."
"That's well done. There's a very important person here today. I'll introduce you to him. As for what happens, that's up to your own luck."
Upon hearing this, Lu Feng wondered what kind of important person could have made him so serious.
A few moments later, three or four bosses came over. After exchanging pleasantries and business cards, they made their acquaintances. In this kind of setting, it was all about getting to know people. Lu Feng held a half-full glass of red wine and occasionally clinked glasses with the people.
He also learned about several companies from other provinces, ranging from transportation companies and resource exploration companies to port freight companies. They were all kinds of companies, and in less than an hour, Lu Feng had a stack of business cards in his hand.
"Mr. Lu, come here for a moment." Mr. Wu, whom Lu Feng had just met, waved to him.
Lu Feng walked over and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Let me introduce you to a remarkable person, absolutely remarkable, a master." The other person looked at him with admiration.
Lu Feng didn't want to get to know the word "master" as soon as he heard it. In the 1990s, there were all sorts of "masters," including all sorts of demons and monsters. However, since he had just met the other person, he couldn't refuse. He walked more than a hundred steps inside and saw a group of people forming a circle.
"Pay attention, I'm about to unleash my power. Don't blame me for not warning you, all of you keep your minds focused to avoid being affected."
Lu Feng stood outside the crowd, his face full of question marks when he heard these words. It felt like a third-rate fantasy novel he had read in his previous life. He walked forward to see what was going on and found a man who was almost fifty years old, dressed in a white training uniform, standing there muttering to himself.
