Chapter 279: Encountering Old Acquaintances in a Foreign Country
In the evening, Zhang Wolf took Tang Feifei to attend Li Chaoren's banquet.
Godmother and Professor Wen didn't go, and Zhang Wolf didn't force it, on such an occasion, let alone Professor Wen and them, even he felt awkward.
Hong Kong has been ruled by the British for more than 100 years, which has made many people in Hong Kong accustomed to Western life.
It's like this banquet, as if it wasn't a Western-style cocktail party, it wasn't grand enough.
Like this Western-style drinking party with a cup all over the place, and you can't eat indiscriminately, Zhang Wolf really can't lift his spirits.
However, everyone carries the sedan chair, after all, Li Chaoren reported the drinking party to catch him and wash the dust, and he didn't like to participate in it.
Zhang Wolf is still wearing a straight 71-style summer uniform military uniform, and Tang Feifei is wearing a purple cheongsam with dark flowers, and the two of them walked into the Li family's mansion, and their distinctive makeup immediately became the focus of the audience.
"Welcome! Welcome!"
Li Chaoren personally came out to greet him.
"Thank you Mr. Li for your kindness, I've caused you trouble!" Zhang Wolf held Li Chaoren's hand and said politely.
"Hey, why didn't Professor Wen and Mrs. Wen come with you!"
"Oh! My godmother is not very suitable for such an occasion, and she is pregnant, so they asked me to say sorry to Mr. Li! Godmother said that next time Mr. Li goes to the Northeast, she will cook for Mr. Li herself!"
"It's because I didn't think it through! Another day, I'll make a special trip to visit Professor Wen and Mrs. Wen another day!"
As long as Zhang Wolf came, Li Chaoren's purpose would be achieved, and he still said politely.
"Mr. Zhang, please come inside, Mr. Shen, Mr. Ye and Jianning have already arrived!" Li Chaoren politely let Zhang Wolf into the courtyard.
"Boss!
Seeing the boss come in, Ye Xiaoxian and Huo Jianning hurriedly confessed to the people around him and greeted him.
"You're here early, but I'm the closest late!" Zhang Wolf smiled and nodded at the two of them.
Zhang Wolf is dressed in a military uniform, and he definitely stands out from the crowd at the cocktail party where he is all suits and leather shoes, which is very eye-catching.
Zhang Wolf took two glasses of red wine, one glass with Tang Feifei, and greeted the people who kept gathering around him.
Talking about business at the reception is generally halfway through, find a separate room, and now the reception has just begun, everyone is polite to each other, set up lyrics, and now everyone is wearing a mask of hypocrisy, saying hypocritical words.
Zhang Wolf dealt with the people who came to be close to him, and was keenly aware that someone was staring at him.
Turning his head, two middle-aged people, although they were also in suits and leather shoes, Zhang Wolf could see at a glance that these two were from the mainland.
Zhang Wolf guessed that the two might be comrades from the Xiangjiang office.
Seeing Zhang Wolf on such an occasion, as well as Zhang Wolf's dress, will naturally pay more attention.
Zhang Wolf didn't go over to say hello, just smiled and signaled to the two of them, and continued to deal with the people around him.
Fortunately, not many people know him, namely the ten richest people and their children.
After coping with the circle, Zhang Wolf took Tang Feifei to find a seat where no one was and sat down, rubbing his somewhat stiff face.
Compared with such occasions, Zhang Wolf prefers Chinese-style banquets, where everyone gathers around the table, eats meat, drinks and brags loudly, that is what the old man should do.
It's like now, a glass of wine has been served for a long time, and it's not half down, and it's basically just clinking glasses.
"Hello comrade, can I sit down?" The two comrades from the Xiangjiang office just now came to the door.
"Comrade, your last name?"
"Surname Zhang!"
"I don't know where Comrade Zhang is?" asked the comrade from the Xiangjiang office tentatively.
"I can't talk about high, I'm the village chief of a small mountain village in the northeast!"
"The village chief of the northeastern mountain village?" the two of them looked incredulous.
Zhang Wolf's words are obviously not convincing, when will the influence of the motherland be so great, and a village chief can become Li Chaoren's guest!
"This is Director Zhou of the Xiangjiang Office!" the younger one took the initiative to explain to Zhang Wolf.
"Hello, Director Zhou, it is fate that we can meet fellow villagers in Xiangjiang, let's go?"
Director Zhou's voice had a strong Northeast flavor in his voice, and Zhang Wolf smiled and raised his glass to invite.
"Haha! Let's be considered a hometown acquaintance!
The two touched the glass, and Zhang Wolf drank it all, "The wine still tastes good enough!"
"Haha! That's right! Wine has to be drunk like this!" Director Zhou also raised his head and dried the cup.
"Is Comrade Zhang coming to Xiangjiang to do business, or is there anything that needs the cooperation of our office, and the manager said! The duty of our office is to serve the comrades who come from home. ”
"Thank you, Director Zhou! It's not a big deal, it's just to send my godmother to Xiangjiang to give birth!"
The strong smell of soldiers on Zhang Wolf made the two of them a little confused for a while, and they couldn't figure out what Zhang Wolf was doing.
I won't ask more, for fear that if I ask something I shouldn't ask, I chatted a few words, and Director Zhou said goodbye and left.
"Zhang Sheng, it turns out that you are here, how are you still used to it?" As soon as Director Zhou left, Li Chaoren walked over.
"To be honest, we Chinese are really not used to this set of foreign devils!" Zhang Wolf shrugged.
Li Chaoren is not an outsider, if it is really discussed, Li Chaoren still has to care about Zhang Wolf and Tang Feifei calling senior brothers and sisters.
"Haha! It's still a free and easy life, and I don't like this kind of drinking party, but I can't help it, everyone does this, if you don't do it, it will look different! It's too different, and this business can't be done. ”
It is not unreasonable for Li Chaoren to be able to take the lead as a latecomer, he doesn't say that he is exquisite, but he is also a mask, and everyone takes care of him.
"Ms. Tang, I'm sorry, I'm going to borrow Zhang Sheng for a while, there are a few old friends over there who want to talk to Zhang Sheng. ”
"Mr. Li is polite, it's important for you to talk about business, don't worry about me, I'll just go around!" Tang Feifei smiled and left with the cup.
Zhang Wolf followed Li Superman to the second floor.
"Director Zhou, the one surnamed Zhang and Li Chaoren went up to the second floor, and they didn't know what to talk about. The subordinate reported to Director Zhou.
"Let's not worry about this matter, just go back and report it to the relevant domestic departments, maybe people have a secret mission!" Director Zhou thought about it and made a decision.
"Yes!"
…………
"Zhang Sheng! meet again!"
"Yo, Old Man Huo, I haven't seen you for more than half a year, you're old and young!"
"Haha! You, Zhang Sheng, will coax my old man with nice words!" Old Man Huo laughed happily.
"Mr. Bao, Mr. Xu, Mr. Lin......" After greeting Old Man Huo, Zhang Wolf greeted the people in the house one by one.
"Zhang Sheng! Your Fude Group's actions this year are not small!" the charter king sighed.
Zhang Wolf smiled modestly, "You have won the award! These are the credits of Mr. Ye and Manager Huo, and I am also a shopkeeper!"
