Ling Xi was picked up by Xiao Mo's car early the next morning, and the two of them were going to attend the annual commendation conference for outstanding enterprises held by the government.

"Wouldn't you just go to this kind of meeting alone?" Ling Xi asked.

"It's not that I'm going to drag you around, it's that the leader has to take you with me. Xiao Mo replied truthfully.

"I always feel that it will be a boring three days, whether it is an investigation, a forum or even a round table, it is a very boring thing. Ling Xi snorted coldly.

"No, it's all a face-saving project, and you have to go through the motions with your face, so I'm going to make a soy sauce and cooperate. Xiao Mo didn't like this kind of occasion either, but he couldn't go either. What's more, their group won the award.

"Actually, I just wanted to sleep in that hotel for three days. Ling Xi muttered.

"I heard that the old chairman of this grand scene and Zhao Jingxuan will also participate together. Xiao Mo said casually.

"So grand?" Ling Xi didn't take it seriously, he just showed his face and slapped soy sauce like them.

"I don't know, I think I'm going to talk about something. Xiao Mo said.

"Zhao Heng, the old chairman of Shengjing, is definitely a powerful character. Ling Xi said.

"That's for sure, Shengjing was founded by him, and it is not easy to develop into the current scale in a few decades, how can it be possible without a few brushes. Xiao Mo said truthfully.

"By the way, let me ask you, what happened to the Qinglong Jade Plate that you asked me to pay attention to before leaving the palace? I always wanted to ask you but I forgot it. Ling Xi asked.

"Hey, that's not what Zhao Jingxuan asked me to pay attention to by the way, saying that his father likes to collect antiques, and I heard that the ancient jade plate is now in the palace, so let's all help pay attention to it and see if we can find it and buy it back." Otherwise, I'm not interested in collecting antiques, and you don't know. Xiao Mo said lightly.

"It turned out to be an antique collection, a hobby for the rich. Ling Xi said.

"I heard that the old chairman of Shengjing's entrepreneurial capital came from the antique collection, but I don't know if it's true. Xiao Mo said casually.

"Makes a fortune by collecting antiques? Isn't it said that you have made a fortune by relying on the real estate industry and the financial industry?" Ling Xi asked with concern.

"I don't know, I've heard so many words before, who still cares about how he made his fortune in recent years, people are successful models, and those past things are naturally no one mentioned. Whether it's the real estate industry or the financial industry, don't you need capital? Xiao Mo rolled his eyes and said.

"That's right. Ling Xi didn't care much about these messy things before, and only focused on doing her job well, so she didn't know anything about what Xiao Mo said just now.

Zhao Heng...... Antique Collection...... Antique collection as a start-up capital...... Maybe......

At this meeting, she was bound to have a snack and look for the clues and answers she wanted.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that the originally boring meeting had suddenly become much more interesting, and she even began to look forward to it......

After an hour and a half of driving, Ling Xi and Xiao Mo finally arrived at the venue: the Universal International Convention Center Hotel.

After arriving, they first went to sign in and register as required, and then got the VIP card, the conference itinerary and other information, as well as the hotel accommodation room card provided by the organizer.

She and Xiao Mo were arranged on the 29th floor, and after entering the elevator, they found that they were suites from the 28th floor to the 30th floor. It seems that they are treated well.

Ling Xi lives in 2908, Xiao Mo lives in 2909, and after each went back to their rooms and simply packed their luggage, they made an appointment to report to the venue together.

When they entered, there were already a lot of people seated in the venue, and their VIP seats were arranged on the single sofa at the front, all with their names pasted on them, and it seemed that they were seated according to their names.

Ling Xi quickly swept around the other VIP seats when she was looking for her position, and sure enough, she saw the names of Zhao's father and son in the center of the left side of the first row. She and Xiao Mo were in the center of the right. There is a walkway between the left and right positions, and there are cameras, cameras, etc.

didn't wait for them to sit for long, but they saw the Zhao father and son coming.

Xiao Mo was the first to get up, and Ling Xi followed him over to greet them.

"Hello Chairman Zhao and Mr. Zhao. Xiao Mo smiled first and said hello.

"Hello Chairman Zhao and Mr. Zhao, we meet again. Ling Xi also smiled and took the initiative to say hello.

"Hello, Xiao Mo, Xixi, I'm so happy to see you, at least I don't have to be so boring. Zhao Jingxuan said happily.

"Miss Ling: We meet again. This should be Xiao Mo, the chairman of Feiyu, fortunately. Zhao Heng also smiled.

Before we had time to talk about anything else, people from the organizers came up to greet us and introduce leaders, etc., so everyone had no time to talk about it, and they were dealing with leaders, peers, etc., and it was impossible to distinguish between those who knew and didn't know anyway.

Just nod and smile.

The reason why Ling Xi didn't like this kind of occasion was because he was tired of dealing with these people whose faces he couldn't remember. I also hate asking for business cards on this occasion, adding WeChat and so on, all of them are self-cooked, and I really take it. You said that if you give it, Ling Xi is not happy, and if you don't give it, it seems that others can't get off the stage......

So she will not participate unless necessary, so as to save trouble. She didn't have that much leisure to deal with these "strangers".

In the morning, the leader gave a speech, and the process introduction was over.

Lunch is an arranged buffet and is located on the 3rd floor of the hotel.

I thought I could have a solid lunch, but who would have thought that waves of people would come over in batches to talk. Alas...... Ling Xi saw that Xiao Mo and the two fathers and sons had been busy socializing, she found a chance to sneak back to the room directly, anyway, don't think about eating well there, it's better to go to the room to be quiet for a while.

After returning to the room, she called the hotel room service in the room. Or eat alone in the room.

Twenty minutes later, the waitress delivered the meal she had ordered to her room. After the waitress left, she began to have a pleasant lunch by herself.

Just about to eat, the phone rang.

Seeing that the caller ID was Qin Tian, he answered it directly.

"It's lunchtime, have you eaten?" Qin Tian asked.

"Just as I was about to eat, your call came. Have you eaten it?"

"I just finished eating. Then you hurry up and eat first, I'll hang up. ”

"Well, good. ”

After hanging up the phone, Ling Xi began to eat, it was good to have a quiet meal alone. Thinking about the situation in the restaurant downstairs, she felt that she was extremely satisfied at the moment.

Before he could finish eating, the phone rang again.

It was Xiao Mo who called back.

"Hey, what's the matter, I haven't finished my meal yet. Ling Xi said impatiently.

"Where did you go, why didn't you disappear in a blink of an eye?"

"The restaurant is too noisy, which affects my appetite, so I ran to the room and called for food delivery. ”

"You can do it, can you tell me if you want to leave next time, please take it." ”

"No, you have to be responsible, sacrifice you alone, you can fulfill me, it's good. Besides, your communication skills are first-class, and it's a pity to waste them, so you have to carry them forward. ”

"You really make me so sad. ”

"Goodbye, I'm going to finish my meal, I'll come down when I'm done. ”

didn't wait for Xiao Mo to reply, she hung up directly and continued to sweep the tail work.

After eating and letting the waiter take it away, she slowly returned to the venue.

Although she looked careless on the surface in the afternoon, she actually kept an eye on the Zhao family and her son, she would not let go of such a good opportunity to understand the past of Shengjing, and even Zhao Heng's past, maybe she could understand why he was so obsessed with leaving the palace.

Next, we welcome Zhao Heng, Chairman of Shengjing Group, Xiao Mo, Chairman of Feiyu Group, and Li Xinghua, Chairman of Duyuan Group, to come to the stage to make a small sharing meeting with our host. The master of ceremonies announced.

"First of all, I am very happy and honored to have this opportunity to have a face-to-face exchange and learning with the three bigwigs, and I believe that all the guests in the audience are as happy as I am. So first of all, I would like to ask Chairman Zhao of Shengjing, what was the original intention of founding Shengjing?

"Thank you for the opportunity to have a discussion with so many rising stars. Of course, I'm also very happy to meet a lot of old friends here. As for the original intention of establishing Shengjing, in fact, I have said it many times before, purely to support my family, which is a very simple and practical original intention.

Some of the old friends here know that their ancestors were all scholars, so there is nothing else, but there are a lot of books and paintings. In fact, my generation has decayed, so what should I do? I can only learn to make money, maybe I am lucky, so I have made a prosperous scene. Zhao Heng said lightly.

"Dong Zhao is really too modest and funny. Do you mean that you rely on ancestral calligraphy and painting as your entrepreneurial capital? I have heard that Zhao Dong's family has been collecting antiques for generations, I wonder if it is true?" the host asked with a smile.

"It can be said that people who read books like elegance, so it is normal to have a habit of collecting calligraphy and painting books. As for me, when I was a child, I was also a scholar, but I later fell into the sea to do business, but some habits can't be changed, such as collecting some antique calligraphy and paintings, etc., so I can also be vassal, isn't it, and I just come back with some regrets. Zhao Heng said with a smile.

"Zhao Dong, you are really too humorous, if you are all degenerate, then there are no successful people, Shengjing Group is now the world's top 500 enterprises. So what's next for you?" the moderator continued.

"My next plan is to retire, play with birds at home, raise flowers, and collect my favorite things. Zhao Heng said with a smile.

"Thank you Dong Zhao for sharing, and then we want to ask Chairman Li of Duyuan Group ......"

Ling Xi didn't listen to what the host said later.

She only cared about what Zhao Heng said just now...... Repeating and thinking about it......

She suddenly had an idea: maybe Zhao Heng's elders were one of the ones who went out of the palace. The idea, while immature, is not impossible. Calligraphy and paintings, antiques, and collectibles made a fortune, and he was obsessed with leaving the palace...... This logic also works.

This also explains why he doesn't disclose what he knows...... Because it's also his secret, or a secret he doesn't want to reveal.
