After the car got off the viaduct, it gradually moved away on a road, the greenery on both sides was getting better and better, and it was getting farther and farther away from the city, all the way around to a newly developed land, and at the end of the road, it was a lush garden.
Chen Mingyuan paid attention to the nameplate at the lower intersection, which seemed to be a membership-based leisure place.
Cen Ruohan is obviously not the first time to come here, after the fan-shaped iron door is opened, he is familiar with the steering wheel on the green road, all the way through an artificial lake, at the end of the garden, there is a completely European-style building, carved galleries and paintings, splendid, looks both solemn and luxurious and full of the atmosphere of the times.
The car stopped, and after the two got out of the car, a person dressed as a waiter soon came out to help drive the car away, and then a foreman-like person respectfully led the two into the building.
Walking into this European-style building, there is a lounge, and a café, and you can see a few casually dressed men sitting on an open-air lawn drinking tea from a distance, and a few beautiful women gathering in the café to chat, several of whom are figures in the financial industry who occasionally make newspaper headlines!
Catching a glimpse of Chen Mingyuan's thoughtful expression, Cen Ruohan smiled slightly and explained: "This is a leisure club, which was just completed the year before last, and basically didn't do any publicity, so there are not many people who know the Tao, but the services that can be enjoyed on the market are all available here, and the grade is only high or low, of course, those who can enter here are basically the most powerful, wealthy and status people in the whole Zhonghai!" ”
Chen Mingyuan was slightly moved, just from the situation he witnessed in front of him, this club is obviously more luxurious and magnificent than the Taoyuan Club, and it is estimated that the energy behind the scenes is also extraordinary, so he was silent and said directly: "Who is the owner of the club?" ”
"You'll see you later, I'm here to make an appointment with him to talk about business."
Cen Ruohan glanced at him, and said with a smile: "He's a person, his style is relatively low-key on weekdays, and he hasn't been in the media so far, and there aren't many people in the market who know him, but you should have heard of it...... He is the richest man in our China Shipping! ”
Chen Mingyuan raised his eyebrows, and his expression was indescribably complicated.
Without thinking too much about it, the two of them walked through the building, and suddenly there was a swimming pool, tennis courts, an equestrian field, and of course, the largest was a golf course, with lush shade and a huge artificial lake in the distance, and several single-family houses separated very far apart.
At this time, the foreman took out the walkie-talkie and exchanged two sentences, and then the shuttle bus of the stadium drove over, picked up the two people, and went straight to the venue.
After driving for a while, Chen Mingyuan raised his eyes and saw that under the bright sunshine, on the clean green lawn, there were two men walking side by side, talking and laughing, and several caddies followed behind.
One of them was Lu Weiting, wearing a light-colored shirt, with a sunny smile on his handsome face, and the middle-aged man beside him looked very ordinary, just gestures, with a hint of elegance, with a pair of glasses on his face, revealing a capable temperament.
Seeing the two of them get out of the car, Lu Weiting's smile suddenly became a little thicker, he stepped forward and patted Chen Mingyuan's arm, and said with a smile: "It's really not easy to see this side, obviously Zhonghai is your territory, and Qiantang is my territory, but all year round, we are both clubbing on each other's territory, and we can't figure out who is the host." ”
Chen Mingyuan quipped: "This is the most typical mutual benefit, my family covers you, your family covers me, and no one can pit anyone!" ”
This vivid metaphor undoubtedly interprets the current intimate relationship between the Lu family and the Chen family, since climbing the towering tree of the Chen family and even the Zhonghai system, in addition to Lu Bainian's rise in the Dongjiang political arena, Lu Weiting is also like a fish in water in Zhonghai, and has now been promoted to the director of the China Shipping Economic and Trade Commission, and can be regarded as a little famous in the circle of Zhonghai elites.
Now, when it comes to the network of contacts in Zhonghai, Chen Mingyuan, a native of the Chen family, may not be as broad and familiar as Lu Weiting.
Of course, the Chen family also benefited a lot from this political cooperation, in addition to having a strong descendant member, gradually infiltrating the power into Dongjiang Province, Chen Mingyuan was also able to have a smooth journey under Lu Bonian's care.
"I heard this a little ambiguously, as if we had become hostages sent by our respective families."
Lu Weiting laughed heartily, it could be seen that he was in a pretty good mood, after all, his father was about to become the number one person in the Dongjiang Provincial Government, what could be more exciting good news than this?
Lu Weiting didn't say much to greet, then raised his hand to show the middle-aged man, and said with a smile: "You came just in time, I will introduce you to a great nobleman, you should be meeting for the first time, right?" ”
The middle-aged man waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "Xiao Lu, don't make fun of me, where am I a nobleman." ”
"If Ren Dong is not a nobleman, we really can't find a few big people in Zhonghai."
Cen Ruohan took over the conversation and introduced: "Mingyuan, this is what I mentioned to you, Ren Tianping, the richest man in our China Overseas and the chairman of Tianping Group, is the director, Ren Dong, Mingyuan's details, you should know it in your heart, right?" ”
"Mingyuan...... It should be the grandson of Old Chen! ”
Ren Tianping's pupils flashed with a hint of luster, and his attitude immediately corrected a lot, and he stretched out his hand with a smile and said, "Sure enough, it's better to meet than to be famous!" Chen Gongzi can be regarded as the rising star in our Haitian realm, but I have often heard your news in the past two years, to be honest, Ren has always been very curious about Chen Gongzi, but he has visited Chen Lao several times, but he has not been able to see each other, fortunately, regret that it can finally be ended today! ”
Yixi's attitude was slightly low, especially when he mentioned Old Man Chen, his face showed a bit of flattery.
After all, no matter how rich he is, he is only a businessman after all, compared with the political power and princes of the Chen family, the energy is not at the same level at all, not to mention that the old man Chen still has a decisive influence in the elite circle of Zhonghai and the country's high-level, he wants to enjoy wealth in Zhonghai forever, and he has to rely on the snort of the Chen family!
Although Chen Mingyuan's current status and qualifications are still relatively shallow, as a pillar of the Chen family and even the Zhonghai Department, and the most beloved grandson of Old Man Chen, he can't let the balance give up three points!
Chen Mingyuan shook hands and smiled, and said: "Ren Dong is too ridiculous, in terms of achievements, you are the pride of our Zhonghai." ”
"I have such an achievement, it's not worth taking it out, it's nothing more than three points by hard work, seven points by luck, happened to bump into a few opportunities, made a little money, and Chairman Yang These business strongmen are too inferior!"
Ren Tianping waved his hand and said with a smile: "I am fortunate to meet Chen Gongzi today, which is a great joy, needless to say, I will order to go down and set up a table in it later, everyone will have a good drink in the evening, and get acquainted with each other!" ”
Cen Ruohan lost no time in saying: "Ren Dong, forgive me for not knowing etiquette, I have fulfilled your happy event today, and when the contract is negotiated, should you give back a little?" ”
It seems to be a joke, but it has a bit of seriousness.
"It's easy to say, with the face of the three young talents, Sister Cen Xiaojian, Chen Gongzi and Lu Gongzi, if I don't talk about expressing some thoughts, it will become that I don't know how to be polite!"
Ren Tianping was quite hearty, glanced at the green, pointed to the golf ball, and said with a smile: "Otherwise, I am still a few strokes away from playing with Lu Gongzi, as long as Sister Cen Xiaoyi can win it, you will have the final say in the contract, I will have nothing to say!" ”
Cen Ruohan smiled bitterly and said: "Ren Dong, you know that I don't know this thing, so don't you mean to embarrass me." ”
"If you can't call, it's okay, some people will do it for you." Ren Tianping smiled, and his gaze involuntarily turned to Chen Mingyuan.
Lu Weiting smiled understandingly, handed the club to Chen Mingyuan, and said: "It seems that Ren Dong is determined to have a few tricks with you, and it just so happens that I won't have a good hand today, so I'll hand it over to you, I hope I can fight with Ruohan and come back in one breath!" ”
At this point, Chen Mingyuan also knew that he couldn't shirk it, so he took the club and went to the green in a ferry car with Cen Ruohan.
"Auntie, if you give me such a big responsibility, aren't you afraid that I will mess up you if I make a mistake?"
Chen Mingyuan leaned lazily on the back of his chair, enjoying the brilliant sunshine, and glanced at the shuttle bus behind him.
"It's okay, my aunt has confidence in you, if you really want to lose, I will go to your mother at most to ask for compensation."
Cen Ruohan said calmly, suddenly pursed his lips and smiled, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, playing golf is just an excuse, and the friendship with us is real, as long as your skills are not too cold, nine times out of ten you will win!" ”
Chen Mingyuan nodded, naturally knowing that Ren Tianping wanted to take the opportunity to sell a favor.
I have to say that this favor is sold very cleverly, not only to give enough face to the three of them, but also to deliberately lose later, and also to give Cen Ruohan preferential treatment in cooperation for a legitimate reason, not so that Cen Ruohan will have a psychological burden!
It seems that to be able to become the richest man in China Shipping, Ren Tianping does have his uniqueness.
Thinking of this, Chen Mingyuan asked, "Aunt, the relationship between this Ren Tianping and your father should be good, right?" ”
Cen Ruohan was stunned and nodded lightly: "Almost, since my father became the mayor, many of the projects he has led have been strongly supported by Ren Tianping......
Seeing Chen Mingyuan's strange look, she said tentatively: "You don't seem to be very interested in this person." ”
Chen Mingyuan shook his head and said with emotion: "It's nothing, but when I see him, I inexplicably think of a common saying." ”
"What?"
"Shoot the first bird!"
Saying this seemingly headless comment, Chen Mingyuan didn't care about Cen Ruohan's stunned look, and sighed secretly.
Who would have thought that this complacent Zhonghai popular nobleman would soon become a prisoner in another parallel world, and become a victim of the cannon fodder game between the two factions that cover the sky and the sun! (To be continued.)
