For the evening party, Xiao Xiao worked hard, not only didn't eat dinner for several days, but also made a custom dress, of course, it was the old man's money that was spent. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The cocktail party started at 6 o'clock, and Xiao Xiao got off work in advance to prepare.
AS SOON AS XIAO BAI FINISHED DEALING WITH THE THINGS IN HIS HAND, HE HURRIED HOME, AND IF HE DIDN'T GO BACK, XIAO XIAO'S FATAL CALL WOULD COME AGAIN......
"Wow, you're not so grand, are you?" Back home, Xiao Bai was stunned by his overly well-dressed sister in front of him, "It's just a drinking party, I don't know, I thought you were married!"
"Don't worry, when I get married, I'll be a hundred times more beautiful than I am now!"
"Miss Xiao is naturally beautiful, and she looks good without dressing up. The makeup artist on the side praised.
"Okay brother, don't grind. You hurry up and change your clothes. Xiao Xiao urged.
Fortunately, I arrived at the venue before 6 o'clock, and the style of this corporate exchange meeting is very high! There is a professional emcee in front of the venue, and the red carpet is neatly rolled out.
"Hi, Xiao Xiao!"
Xiao Xiao saw that someone called her, and her voice sounded a little familiar, so she looked up.
"Ke Ling, what a coincidence, you're also here for the reception?"
It turned out to be Ke Ling, and after saying goodbye to Jiangnan Pavilion, today is the first day to see you.
"No, I'm here to report. Take some photos on the spot. Ke Ling shook the camera in his hand, "Tell you secretly, you are the most beautiful female guest I have ever photographed tonight!"
"Yes!" Xiao Xiao was amused by Ke Ling.
"You're coming alone?" asked Ke Ling.
"No, I came with my brother. Xiao Xiao pointed to Xiao Bai, who was checking in at the check-in desk.
"Oh, that's it. Ke Ling suddenly remembered something, "Then are you representing Lihua Group?" But Senior Brother Yifan and his female companion have already entered the venue. ”
"No, this time I'm here on behalf of my dad, and he can't attend because of something. ”
"Who is your father? I've been out for a few years, and I don't know anything about the situation in Yangcheng. ”
"Well, the Shaw Group, it's my family's company. Xiao Xiao said a little embarrassed, generally speaking, the family situation of large enterprises in Yangcheng has long been exposed to the public, Ke Ling doesn't know about himself, either his father has done a good job of secrecy, or the name of the Xiao Group is not enough, Xiao Xiao silently felt that it should be the latter...... Dad, you have to come on!
"Ah, I see. Ke Ling suddenly realized, but after thinking about it carefully, didn't Yifan say that Xiao Xiao was her assistant before, how could the daughter of the Xiao Group work in Lihua......
"Ke Ling!" Ke Ling just wanted to ask Xiao Xiao, but her partner came running from a distance, interrupting her thoughts.
"Lin Hai, what's wrong?" tonight's report is that she is partnering with Lin Hai, this Lin Hai, bullying herself as a new recruit, deliberately letting herself stay outside the field, blowing cold winds, taking some irrelevant pictures, staying in the field by herself, eating and drinking chicly, and possibly coming into contact with big news.
"I forgot to charge my camera, can you borrow it?" Seeing that Ke Ling was a little hesitant, Lin Hai hurriedly added, "The drinking party is about to start, and I don't see that there is anything to shoot outside." Why don't you go back first, I'll get the camera. ”
"Then I'll go in with you. There's nothing left to record outside, and I'm just trying to go inside. Ke Ling said to Lin Hai.
"Okay. Lin Hai reluctantly agreed. If you hadn't forgotten to charge your camera, you wouldn't have been cheapened for nothing...... Lin Hai thought indignantly.
"Let's go inside. Xiao Bai finished the registration procedures and walked over.
"Good. Xiao Xiao took her brother's arm and walked into the venue elegantly.
"Who were those two just now?" Lin Hai asked Ke Ling, he knew most of the people who attended tonight's reception, at least in the media, but the two just now seemed to have never appeared in the media. Seeing Ke Ling talking to the woman, he seemed to be quite familiar.
"The young master daughter of the Shaw Group. Ke Ling adjusted the camera mode and answered Lin Hai's question briefly.
"Didn't the Shaw Group expose their business scandal not long ago? Thinking of this, Lin Hai was a little weak-hearted, although the news was appreciated by the boss, but it was not the news that he got with his own ability......
"Oh, the chairman of the Shaw Group has never talked about his family's situation in the media, do you seem to know them well?" Lin Hai asked after Ke Ling again.
Through the music at the entrance of the reception, Ke Ling pretended not to hear it, and walked on his own.
Xiao Xiao entered the venue and understood what his father said formally. It's really formal, the men are all in suits and leather shoes, spotless, and the women are carefully dressed, but the clothes are relatively low-key...... Although she was wearing a mint green dress tonight, the color was not so bright, but in a crowd of people with mainly dark tones, Xiao Xiao stood out.
"Brother......" Xiao Xiao gently pulled off Xiao Bai's clothes.
"It's said you're dressed up a little too much......" Xiao Bai snickered secretly. But today's sister is really beautiful, and in this group of business-oriented dresses, she looks particularly young and lively.
This youthful color appeared in the venue, and all the men were talking about which unit was the representative. With such a beautiful woman by her side, how exciting it is to work......
"Yifan. Xiao Bai saw that Yifan and Hao Min were stopping in front of the dim sum, so he took two glasses of champagne, handed them to Xiao Xiao, and walked over to Yifan.
"Xiao Bai. Yifan also hurriedly came over to say hello, "Hey, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
"Xiao Bai, Xiao Xiao. You're coming. Hao Min also came over to say hello, "Xiao Xiao, your skirt is very beautiful." ”
Since that unpleasantness happened outside the office, this was the first time Xiao Xiao had seen Hao Min. Although his eyes had fully recovered, Hao Min didn't mention it at all, and Xiao Xiao made a note for Hao Min in his heart......
"Thank you. Xiao Xiao drank some champagne and quietly glanced at Yifan, but they only cared about chatting with the eldest brother and didn't look at themselves......
"Distinguished guests!" just after 6 o'clock, someone on the rostrum began to speak, "Our cocktail party is about to begin, please gather in the middle." First of all, I am very grateful to the representatives of various enterprises and institutions for coming to our cocktail party in their busy schedules......" After the host said some scenes, everyone also gathered in the center of the venue, and Xiao Xiao saw Ke Ling from a distance that he was looking for pictures from all angles.
"Next, I would like to invite Vice Mayor Zou to give an opening speech for our reception!" Although Xiao Xiao didn't know this Vice Mayor Zou, he still applauded symbolically with the crowd.
"Distinguished guests, good evening!" was another round of applause, and it seemed that everyone knew the routine very well......
"The enterprise cocktail party has been held for the fifth year, and I am very grateful to all units for their long-term support! Thank you!" said the vice mayor Zou and bowed solemnly to the audience, winning another round of applause.
"Originally, we held this cocktail party at the end of the year, but in the past two years, we have arranged this annual party in the middle of the year. First, it is to take into account that at the end of the year, all units are very busy, busy summarizing this year's work, and also busy planning next year's work. We are in the spirit of serving everyone, and we feel embarrassed to cause chaos for everyone at the end of the year. Second, it is also a very important point. As the saying goes, business opportunities wait for no one. Xiao Xiao said that Miss Ben had never heard this saying. After listening to a long paragraph, Xiao Xiao felt a little dizzy, and looked around, including the eldest brother, who were listening carefully, so he had to settle down a little. "We happened to have a very important development opportunity at this time. So I also want to take this cocktail party to share this good news with you!"
Hearing Vice Mayor Zou say this, the audience began to discuss, which made Xiao Xiao want to talk to someone, but she mostly asked people, what are you talking about......
"Everyone is quiet, quiet!" Vice Mayor Zou calmed the audience, "You may have heard more or less about this matter, today, we invited an important person, ask him to officially announce it for everyone!" Therefore, Xuan Xuan was false for a while, and then continued, "I invite our fellow townsman from Yangcheng, Mr. Zhang Kaili, the head of Chinese mainland of Hong Kong Di Gao Land Group!"
Di Goland...... Oh, my God...... Xiao Xiao vaguely heard that the people around him began to talk again.
"Good evening everyone!" Zhang Kai greeted everyone in his hometown dialect, which caused a warm response from the audience.
Next, Zhang Kaili said a lot of things, Xiao Xiao felt that the soles of his feet were getting more and more painful, and then his heels were also hurting, and his calves were also tired, but the people on the stage didn't finish talking for a long time. Everyone was listening intently, and it was hard for them to slip away. I only remember that Zhang Kaili said that to build the first Di Gao Park in East China in Yangcheng, the site was located in the east of the city. Why Xiao Xiao remembered this was entirely because the address he said happened to be next to one of his farms.
"Hey, do you have an idea again?" It turned out that Zhang Kaili had finished speaking, and the eldest brother was talking to Yifan.
Yifan took a sip of champagne, "Those who came today should be interested." At the end, he added, "Go back and tell your dad that your dad should be interested." ”
Finally able to move freely, Xiao Xiao held champagne in one hand and a dress in the other, and hurriedly found a place to sit down, his feet were so tired......
"Oops!"
I was just looking for a place, but I didn't expect to bump into someone, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Xiao Xiao hurriedly apologized.
"It's okay, it's okay. "Xiang Qi hasn't been wearing high heels for a long time, and he came early today, and he was a little tired from standing for so long, and he was about to go to the corner to rest, but he accidentally bumped into someone. Fortunately, they were not injured or embarrassed.
"Xiaoya?" Xiang Qi raised his head, looked at this person who looked like Xiaoya, and couldn't help but call out...... It's been almost 20 years, but I didn't expect to see ...... again
