"It's very lively here, it just feels different."

Looking at the crowded scene on the deck, from time to time there were a few beautiful women in backless evening dresses passing by him like butterflies wearing flowers, Zhong Shi's mood was naturally very good, and he sincerely admired Andrew beside him.

Andrew's eyes had already fallen on a beautiful woman who had just passed by him, from the white and smooth back to the round buttocks, after hearing Zhong Shi's emotion, he reluctantly withdrew his eyes, smiled, pointed to Zhong Shi's clothes and said: "Since this place is so good, then Zhong Sheng, you should participate in this kind of party more." It's just that your outfit is a little out of place, but it's not a big deal. ”

Because of the taste of uninvited, Zhong Shi put on a tuxedo and tied a bow for the first time, after all, it can't be too out of place with the atmosphere here. It's just that these clothes are all low-priced goods, and they are a bit low-level in the eyes of connoisseurs.

It must be noted that in Hong Kong's financial circle, the attention to clothing is almost the same as that of the West. Even a small analyst has to wear a designer suit and shirt, and of course, it is best to make it custom-made. In addition to these, hairstyles, business cards, watches, etc. must have a certain style, because in their corporate culture, these represent the image of the company.

Other policies, such as the requirement to stay in a five-star hotel for business trips and the need to fly in business class, have been developed for this purpose. Of course, those who can enter the investment bank must be elites, and these policies also play a role in retaining talent to a certain extent. Who made their industry rich?

It's just that these actions have exacerbated the vanity of this group of people to some extent, making them generally have a mentality of dressing and looking at people. Although Zhilu Dao Zhongshi would not care about this, Andrew still persuaded him head-on.

Seeing that Zhong Shi was just smiling and didn't take it too seriously, Andrew sighed, took a glass of champagne from the plate held by the waiter next to him, raised it at Zhong Shi, and said quickly: "Zhong Sheng, you can take a look around first, I'll go meet a few friends." "Finished. Slipped into the crowd without looking back.

“……”

Zhong Shi blinked in surprise. If you look closely, where can you still see Andrew? He couldn't help but sigh and said to himself: "This guy, don't you know that I almost don't know anyone?" That's good. Originally, I was going to come and see it. Now it's like this. ”

Slander is slander. In the end, Zhong Shi could only shake his head helplessly, grab a glass of champagne, and wander aimlessly on the deck.

I have to say. The three pillars of strong light from the roof of the ship show a zigzag shape, illuminating most of the deck brightly, and above the deck, hundreds of lamps of different colors are densely set up, illuminating other corners of the deck like stars, and the most amazing thing is that these lamps can also adjust the light color with the ups and downs of the music, making the whole scene very atmospheric.

After admiring the layout for a while, Bell Stone made his way through the crowd to the buffet area on the side of the deck. Since no one took the initiative to come over to talk, and Zhong Shi didn't plan to communicate with others, standing alone on one side inevitably seemed a little too dazzling, so he decided to find something to do for himself, that is, to eat.

Having said that, although this kind of drinking party is just a social reception to facilitate everyone to communicate and expand their network, but even so, the food prepared for the reception is extremely rich, including Thai beef rolls, salmon puffs, spicy vegetables, snail crisp boxes, seafood pizzas, French toast and many other foods, all of which are full of color, flavor and flavor, which immediately makes Zhong Shi's index finger move.

After taking some food indiscriminately, Zhong Shi hid aside and began to eat, but he didn't expect that his actions had already been quietly watched by a person.

"Hey, this isn't the clock...... Bell...... Bell Stone? Why, you're here too? ”

Just as Zhong Shi was feasting, an untimely voice sounded in his ears. As soon as he heard this voice, Zhong Shi sighed, handed the plate to the waiter beside him, took the cloth and wiped his mouth, and then raised his head to look at the person who made the sound.

The last time Zhong Shi attended a drinking party of this nature was three years ago, when he was also being interrupted by someone who came out of nowhere while he was feasting. As soon as he thought that history was so similar, he sighed in his heart, thinking that he was really not suitable for this kind of occasion, and every time he was disturbed when he was about to eat happily.

The soles of his feet were a pair of shiny black crocodile leather shoes, and he was wearing an Armani evening gown all over his body, and there was not a trace of wrinkles on the dark gray clothes, and I don't know if he had just bought them or ironed them too well. Looking up again, there was a slightly familiar face, the face was very clean, there was no trace of stubble, and the eyes with gold-rimmed glasses revealed a mocking smile, which made Zhong Shi a little unhappy.

After staring at this smiling face for a long time, Zhong Shi slapped his head and finally remembered who he was, in Zhida's former roommate Li Weigang, the pro-British guy who was lukewarm to him.

In fact, Zhong Shi didn't live long in the dormitory provided by Zhida before moving out, and he didn't have much contact with this roommate named Li Weigang, so naturally he didn't have any grudges. Therefore, after recognizing him, Zhong Shi just smiled faintly and greeted politely: "It was originally you!" It's been a long time. ”

It's just that what Zhong Shi didn't expect was that his understatement aroused Li Weigang's anger even more. Although the intersection between the two is not very much, because at the time of graduation, Zhong Shi's thesis was highly praised by the university, and was even considered the outstanding graduation thesis of the year at Chiba University, Zhong Shi became an excellent model for Asian American students for a while. And Li Weigang, who has always been arrogant on weekdays, is naturally very unconvinced by this, because these honors are very likely to affect employment and other situations.

After seeing the giants of Wall Street frequently waving to this former classmate, the grievances in Li Weigang's heart became more and more intense. Luckily, he's been doing well. Coupled with his Asian identity, he was eventually recruited by a small investment bank on Wall Street to study economic affairs in Asia.

After a year of hard work, he managed to jump to Stanley Hong Kong and became one of the highest-paid people in Hong Kong. It stands to reason that these things should have become a thing of the past a long time ago, but Li Weigang is extremely narrow-minded, and when he meets Zhong Shi on such an occasion today, he will naturally not let go of the opportunity to avenge the so-called "revenge with one arrow".

"Look at the way you look. Doesn't it mix well? And it's no wonder. Recently, the world has been sluggish, and everyone's life is not easy. But you don't have to worry too much, if you really can't make it, you can come to me. Although I was only a small employee at Stanley. But if you want to apply. At least your resume won't be brushed down with me, haha. Li Weigang glanced at the clothes on Zhong Shi's body, and said in a strange manner.

Investment banks recruit people. First, let the analysts at the bottom of a certain department select resumes, brush off a batch first, and then go through the wheel-like interviews of the heads at all levels, and finally it is possible to successfully apply. Therefore, what Li Weigang said about not brushing off his resume is actually a lot of power.

Zhong Shi was dumbfounded, looking at this smug classmate, and didn't know what to say for a while. After being stunned for a long time and scratching his head again, he still didn't understand where he had offended this gentleman. But this is not the time to pursue this, after hearing Li Weigang's words, Zhong Shi's heart was also a little angry, and after glancing at the other party, he was not humble or arrogant to push back Li Weigang's provocation: "Is it? Then I really want to thank you very much. But I'm afraid that at my level, Stanley won't take a fancy to it, right? ”

Naturally, he said the opposite, implying that he didn't like Stanley. Who wouldn't want Li Weigang to not hear the meaning of his words at all, and immediately laughed when he heard Zhong Shi's words, and he didn't care about the occasion at all, so he sarcastically said loudly: "Ha Luha, Zhong Shi, how can your level not be enough?" You know, your "Gaussian Coupling Dependency Function" is an excellent undergraduate thesis, and many of the models on Wall Street are based on your article. Ha Luha, but now the world is not good, the market is sluggish, most of them are laying off people and cutting salaries, I'm afraid there is really no chance like you, Ha Luha. ”

The unbridled laughter immediately attracted the attention of the people around who were whispering to each other, and many of them looked sideways. But Li Weigang did not have the slightest taboo, and still spoke loudly to himself, but his words were full of malice, ridicule and ridicule, which was completely out of step with the atmosphere here.

After more than half a sentence, the smile on Zhong Shi's face suddenly disappeared, and he put down the wine glass in his hand and prepared to leave. Who doesn't want this Li Weigang to be unforgiving, grabbed Zhong Shi, who was just leaving, and said loudly: "Don't, we old classmates haven't seen each other for a long time, let's talk a little longer." ”

Seeing that he was being held tightly, Zhong Shi naturally didn't want to pull and pull with him in public, so he stopped and asked in a low voice, "Are you crazy?" What exactly do you want to do? How come I don't remember where I offended you? Wouldn't it do you any good to humiliate me like this? ”

"Offend me?" Li Weigang had lost his mind at this time, this kind of humiliating people in front of him, and the other party's performance of "not daring to attack" greatly contributed to his arrogance, only to see him stop Zhong Shi with a hideous face and a fierce look, and said through gritted teeth, "That's not true." It's just that I can't get used to your style, and I want to teach you a lesson, so that you know that this kind of place is not something you can come from. Look at your poor appearance, and dare to wear thousands of yuan of evening dresses here, I now wonder if you came here secretly. Listen, I don't care where you came here, but this is a drinking party hosted by our company, so if you don't want to feel uncomfortable, get out. ”

Stroking the wrinkles on his clothes, Zhong Shi didn't plan to leave at this time, stared at Li Weigang's distorted face, and only after looking at it for a long time did he sneer, and said in a good time: "Hehe, since you say so, then I won't leave." I'd like to see what you can do to get me off this ship. ”

"You! Good! Li Weigang was immediately half angry, but it was not good to have a seizure here, he could only hold back the anger in his heart, narrowed his eyes and said viciously, "If you don't leave, I'll go to the security guard immediately to ensure that you will be sent out of here safely." ”

When talking about "peace and security", Li Weigang deliberately accentuated his tone, and the threat was overflowing.

It's just that Zhong Shi didn't seem to hear his words, he just sneered at him vigorously, which made the anger in Li Weigang's heart rise a little more. He didn't say a word, turned around and planned to call someone.

At this moment, there was a sudden rumbling sound from the sky, which was small at first, almost inaudible, but soon evolved into a loud roar. At this time, the lights on the cruise ship were also cast into the night sky at the right time, and as the sound approached, a helicopter with a frequent red glow at the bottom appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
