Chapter 366: The Afterlife Is Terrifying!
In Mingzhu, Zhao Laosi is much more famous than many billionaires. The name is also louder. Even, in the eyes of many small citizens, Zhao Laosi is the emperor of the pearl. It is estimated that he can sit on an equal footing with the mayor and secretary of the municipal party committee, and call him a brother.
Of course, these are just the conjectures of ordinary citizens who have no sources of information and have not been exposed to high society. What is the real situation?
Zhao Laosi does have a certain influence in the government because of his special status. Even because he successfully defeated Ye Shiguan, he received strong support from the government and was given the green light all the way. But all this is just because Zhao Laosi took advantage of the loophole and catered to the government's policies. It doesn't prove that he can cover the sky with one hand in the pearl and run rampant.
Opposite. Now, and even in the future, Zhao Siye will be more cautious and low-key than before. In the past, he could spend 100 million yuan on a birthday banquet. In the future, he may only spend 100 million on charity. Because if he wants to take the right path and enter the real upper class, he must break with his previous life and start with his grandson.
Of course, no one forced him to be a grandson. But this is Zhao Siye's attitude. A Zhao Laosi who is more willing to see in all aspects. If he is still as arrogant and domineering as before, even with the support of the government now, there will be countless people at a charity dinner. What about the future? Once the government thinks he has no use value, who will give him a second look?
Therefore, tonight's charity dinner is a big day for Zhao Siye to be reborn and become a new person.
"Boss Yu!" Zhao Siye, who was standing at the door of the hall in a straight suit, walked towards a middle-aged man in his early forties, with a smile on his face, a humble expression, holding the upstart Boss Yu in the financial industry with both hands, and putting his posture very low, and said with a smile. "Thank you for coming. Gotta have fun tonight. If you don't get drunk, you don't go home. ”
"Boss Zhao, you're too polite." Boss Yu said with a smile. "How could I not come to such a grand charity gala?"
After some warm greetings, Zhao Siye personally sent the boss to the table, and then walked back to the hall quickly to welcome the next batch of guests.
Ah Si, who had always followed behind Zhao Laosi, hesitated for a long time, and then persuaded in a low voice: "Godfather." You don't have to stand here all the time to greet you. It's enough to have me. ”
The implication is that perhaps some high-powered big bosses have this qualification, and they deserve to be greeted by you in person. But most bosses aren't necessarily more powerful than you. I can't make a whispered greeting and greeting.
Of course, Zhao Siye knew the reason and original intention of Ah Si saying this, but he just smiled faintly and said in a low voice: "There are more than 100 guests at these ten tables tonight from the business world, some from the political world, and even from the education world, but there is no one who is mixed in the road. Do you know what that means? After a pause, Zhao Laosi said. It meant that I started a whole new life. I also started a new life. In the past, the people sitting next to me would only talk to me about fighting and killing, about which territory had been robbed. Which territory was snatched back. Even if it's a company that I've spent a lot of money on. The person in charge would also tell me twice in three days that the deal was negotiated by force. That business lost several younger brothers. A settling-in fee is required. ”
Zhao Siye said, his eyes swept over the group of well-dressed guests sitting in the hall. said with a yearning face: "I'm tired of fighting and killing, and I don't want to be treated as a second-rate person for the rest of my life, an old gangster." How much money can you make by collecting protection money? How much money can you make by showing people a scene? You look at the well-dressed merchants. They move a finger casually, and it is a billions or tens of billions of business. I have worked hard all my life, and it is not as big as the business that people negotiate with one meal. ”
Ah Si looked blankly and said, "So you want to learn from them?" ”
"It's not learning." Zhao Siye shook his head. "I want to be like them, not just to be the best, but to be the best. I want everyone to respectfully call Boss Zhao when they see me. I want to build schools all over the country and be called a philanthropist by the media. I want to gain a firm foothold in Mingzhu, and I also want to enter the business circle of Yanjing. After a few years to get on the right track, I will still have to spend money to enter the National People's Congress, and if I can't enter the National People's Congress, I will also enter the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. That's what I'm going to do for the rest of my life. ”
At seven o'clock, people entered the charity dinner one after another. But Zhao Laosi greeted him for two hours before he finally waited for the man he wanted to see the most. A man who can be called a legend of the pearl.
Lu Dashan.
Zhao Laosi had heard of him, and he was limited to hearing about it. With his identity, his status, if it weren't for this opportunity now, he might never have had the opportunity to meet this legendary man in his life. But tonight, this man came to celebrate his charity dinner. This is undoubtedly a great honor for Zhao Laosi.
"Boss Lu!"
Lu Dashan had just stepped out of the elevator, and Zhao Siye greeted him with a smile on his face. The middle-aged man in front of him, who can be called a legendary man, is the absolute protagonist of Zhao Siye's charity dinner. It is more beautiful and dazzling than Zhao Siye.
Because everyone in the Pearl Mall knows that this man, who has been behind the scenes for nearly ten years, has long stopped attending public events. Being able to come tonight is definitely enough to give Zhao Siye face.
Not only Zhao Siye, but also the group of business tycoons who were sitting in the living room waiting for the dinner to begin, also got up one after another and greeted each other. Those who know want to come forward to say hello, and those who don't know want to come forward and make a familiar face. For a while, it was lively and the crowd was in a commotion.
"See?" Lu Dashan glanced back at Xiao Zheng, who was in a formal suit, and said proudly. "Your Uncle Lu is very popular and popular."
Xiao Zheng smiled and didn't say a word. His gaze involuntarily fell on Zhao Siye's face. At the same time, Zhao Siye also found Xiao Zheng who was following Lu Dashan. But he was just stunned, his face quickly returned to his normal look, and he strode towards Lu Dashan, and said with a humble attitude: "Welcome, I've been waiting for you for a long time." ”
"Boss Zhao is polite." Lu Dashan smiled casually, his posture was quite perfunctory, but he introduced Xiao Zheng in turn. "Boss Zhao, this is my eight-worship friend, named Xiao Zheng. Ah Zheng, this is Boss Lu, the big celebrity of our pearl recently. ”
Xiao Zheng smiled slightly, nodded to Zhao Siye, and then stretched out a palm and said to Zhao Siye, "Hello." My name is Xiao Zheng, please take care of me in the future. ”
When Zhao Siye heard this, he also held his arm with Xiao Zheng very bluntly, and said with a hypocritical smile: "The future is terrifying." ”
