Chapter 1483: A Chance Encounter with an Old Friend
Lagos is the old capital and largest port city in Nigeria. Le-wen - at the southwestern end of the border, on the coast of the Gulf of Guinea. A famous seaside resort and tourist center. The sun is shining all year round, the seaside is near the lake, the water conservancy is exhausted, the sea breeze blows, and it is close to the equator but not very hot. Palm swaying, coconut trees swaying, green trees, green water, fish gulls soaring, a group of water town scenery, known as the Venice of Africa.
The island of Ikoi was a residential area for dignitaries and wealthy people, and the banquet had already begun. Lin Rui and Yelena attended in full costume, although he was not very used to such a scene, but he was still better than Yelena. This Russian girl is a natural killer, but she is rarely nervous about such a scene.
Lin Rui whispered in her ear, "Relax, in fact, you are very beautiful, everyone is watching you." ”
"Well, thank you for the comfort, but it makes me even more unable to relax. The last thing a sniper dislikes is the gaze of others. Yelena muttered quietly, "Why the hell are we here for this stupid dinner party and have to dress up as a lady in evening dress?"
"Work requires. Lin Rui smiled slightly.
A well-dressed waiter approached and politely ushered them into the hall. Inside the hall, there was a host telling jokes to liven up the atmosphere, causing a burst of laughter from time to time. Since it was a charity dinner, the organizers thought of many ways to make the guests less bored.
In addition to explaining some of the customs of Africa and the use of the money, there are naturally some performances. It just so happens that there are many kinds of folk and pop music in Zhilia. Nigerians rely on their extraordinary musical talent to play their fiery voices with the help of their own unique playing instruments.
After Lin Rui came in, he looked at the exit first as if out of professional habits, and then looked around. Mentally assessed the security level around him. He noticed that the security level of the dinner was still very high, and there were many security personnel on guard around the area, and there should be armed guards outside the manor.
Yelena whispered beside him, "Don't talk about me, I find that you are indeed more comfortable here than I am." It's just getting used to being a bodyguard in charge of security, not as a guest. How many guests are looking around like you?"
Lin Rui couldn't help but laugh, "No way, I'm used to my profession, just like you don't want to stand in the light and be seen." The host on the stage in front of him was holding a piece of paper and announcing something loudly, which drew a round of applause, and the light moved to a white man, who smiled and nodded.
The moderator was saying that the man had donated a lot of money for medical assistance in African countries. Yelena whispered.
"I know that guy, he's a beautiful ** fire merchant, I saw him last time. Lin Rui said disapprerovingly, "I'm most annoyed by this kind of person, I have earned enough money, and then I will take some out of it, do charity, and pretend to be a good person." ”
"And what are we?" said Yelena, looking at him.
"We're not good people, but we're not bad people either. At best, he can only be regarded as a good person who is not very moral. Lin Rui shrugged.
Yelena couldn't help but laugh, "I think you're really becoming more and more like a dragon fat man." I'm not talking about the figure, I'm just talking about that attitude. You know, Lin Rui, although I've known the silver wolf for a longer time, I actually prefer the type of dragon fat man. If he hadn't been married, I might have really been tempted by him. ”
"Are you deliberately provoking me?" Lin Rui raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "Or are you teasing?"
Yelena looked at him, pursed her lips, and smiled, "What do you say?"
"Damn it, I'm going to eat you. Lin Rui shook his head and whispered in her ear, "Go to my room later?"
"Don't go. Why don't you come to my room?" said Yelena with a smile.
When the two of them were talking quietly, the spotlight had already shone on Lin Rui's body, and he knew that he was talking about the Black Island Company, so he turned around slightly and waved his hand. His words are simple, because they don't donate a lot. Long Noon is a person who knows how to control the scale and knows how to deal with this kind of scene.
This kind of scene is basically a show, others invite you to attend, you can't help but give face, but you are very particular about donations, not too little, but never too much, so as not to take away the host. The title of top donor still has to be given to the organizers, because being in the limelight and buying a good name is what they need.
Before the dinner began, Lin Rui walked around the hall and greeted some people politely. Because he is a new face, it has attracted some people's curiosity. Lin Rui also found that there were actually many Chinese at this dinner party.
However, it is not surprising that Chinese companies have signed tens of billions of dollars in contract contracts in Nigeria, ranking second in Africa. In addition, it has contracted projects such as railway reconstruction and expansion, sports centers, power stations, rural program-controlled telephone networks, and oil block development. So the appearance of Chinese is not an unusual thing.
However, most people have never seen Lin Rui, except for a few companies with business dealings, few people know Lin Rui's identity. What these people got together to talk about was nothing more than financial and economic topics, and Lin Rui was not interested at all, so he walked around, which was equivalent to completing the task of Long Noon, and when he was leaving, he was stopped by a person.
"Mr. Rick. Lin Rui frowned slightly, even if it was his pseudonym, not many people knew about it. He turned around, but saw a Chinese. He frowned slightly, "Is it you, Qin?" This person was Qin Chuan, a Chinese he had ever met.
"Qin Chuan, it seems that it's really you. I've heard a lot about Black Island these days, and you've been really busy lately. Qin Chuan smiled faintly.
"General. No matter what, I'm also a self-fetched way that no one cares about. It's not as good as Mr. Qin's back to the big tree, or is it in the ninth game?" Lin Rui said quietly, "If you guess well, I should call you the bureau seat, right?"
"Deputy Directorate. Qin Chuan looked at him and said, "I still remember you, do you know why?"
"I don't know, maybe I'm good-looking. Lin Rui smiled, "But you also saw it, I brought a female companion." So my attention is definitely not blessed. He turned around and said, "Less accompaniment, bureau seat." ”
"Wait a minute. Qin Chuan put his hand on his shoulder and said in a low voice.
"Mr. Qin, this is not on your territory. In Africa, you don't count. Lin Rui didn't reply, "We are not the same kind of people, if you want to play a majestic and official tone with me, you have to be prepared to be slapped in the face." So take your hand back before I break it. ”
