"Lao Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time, haha, it's late, it's late, how is it, are you still used to living here?"

At 8:15, Dongfang Qing, who was dressed in a light blue evening dress, slowly walked into the banquet hall with the hand of an old man in a suit and leather shoes and silver hair.

As the host of this competition, as soon as Dongfang Qing walked into the banquet hall, he received unanimous greetings from all the guests present.

In the interviews and photos that reporters flocked to, Dongfang Qing, who was graceful and curvaceous, gently shook the beautiful light blue handbag in her hand, smiled decently, answered every reporter's questions, and at the same time, smiled at the guests who greeted her.

Compared to Dongfang Qing, who was overwhelmed by the crowd, the old man beside her was much more relaxed, and after smiling kindly, she bypassed the crowd from the right side and walked directly towards the Dao Ye who was drinking alcohol.

The old man's figure was not very tall, and his appearance was not outstanding, but the expression on his face was very amiable, no matter who greeted him, the old man smiled and nodded, like a kind elder.

Probably because of the fact that he has hugged his grandson in the past few years, although the old man is already very old, his spirit is still very good, and when he walks, he can't see what a seventy-year-old man should look like.

Seeing Dongfang Qing's father, Dongfang Mingqi, he didn't pay attention to the reporter's interview, but came directly to him, Dao Ye's eyes turned a little red for a moment, just like a pedestrian in the ice and snow, and suddenly saw a warm bonfire slowly lit up in front of him.

As soon as he grasped Dongfang Mingqi's outstretched hand, Dao Ye smiled excitedly, and the wrinkles on his old face were all squeezed together.

"Brother Dongfang, you are laughing, I didn't come too early, why are we all front and back, haha, big brother, your complexion is still so good."

Dongfang Mingqi held Dao Ye's hand and asked kindly.

"Are you still used to living there? If you're not used to it, come home with me, and when you're fine, you can still drink tea and play chess. ”

Dao Ye was flattered, and for a moment, he even wanted to agree directly.

But after thinking about it, Dao Ye still waved his hand and smiled, "No, no, and the children are here, I won't trouble you, so another day, another day, I'll go to your house to take a good look at you and your sister-in-law." ”

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at home."

After speaking, Dongfang Mingqi nodded kindly to Carl and Sixth Master behind Dao Ye, and then the old man took Dao Ye's hand and went directly to Mayor Zhao beside him.

"Lao Zhao Lao Wang, come on, come on, I will introduce someone to you to know, come, this is Lao Zhang, the chairman of Tianlong Hotel, the semi-finals of this competition were won by Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang, let me introduce you, this is the mayor of the city, this is the president of the provincial catering association, and this is the famous food critic Mr. Wang in the city."

Seeing that Dongfang Mingqi was coming with Daoye, several leaders also shook hands with Daoye and chatted with him.

"It turns out that this is Chairman Zhang, haha, I am glad to meet you, this semi-final was held by your hotel, it is really hard for you."

Dao Ye smiled very well, "Oh, where and where, this is what we should do, by the way, I heard that Mayor Zhao and Mr. Wang like famous paintings very much, but I am ....... here."

Seeing that Dao Ye quickly integrated into the circle of leaders, and with the rapid integration of Dao Ye, the surrounding guests no longer continued to pay attention to Tianlong's people, and continued to drink and talk one by one, without the slightest rumor.

Seeing this, the sixth master, who had his hands behind his back, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Alas, good man, this big brother Dongfang is really a good person."

Holding a wine glass and looking at the old man of the East who helped the Taoist master to connect him, Carl also said with emotion.

"Yes, in this case, I can take the initiative to talk to the chairman, and also help the chairman quickly eliminate the previous influence, this old man is really a very noble person, and there are many things worth learning from me."

Seeing that Dao Ye and the leaders were chatting happily, the sixth master nodded reassuringly, then patted Carl's shoulder, and said with a sigh of relief, "Okay, it's okay now, I'll take Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi to Lao Wang's whereabouts, Xiao Ka, you can move freely." ”

"yes, okay."

As he spoke, the sixth master squeezed his eyes at Carl again, and said with a wicked smile, "Hey, it's a pity, all the old men who came tonight are gentlemen, and there are basically few beautiful girls, otherwise with your kid's face, I'm afraid I won't be able to get up tomorrow morning." ”

Carl shook his head with a wry smile, his face full of embarrassment, "Don't make fun of me, I'll just walk around by myself." ”

"Well, then I won't care about you."

After speaking, the sixth master took the fifth master and the seventh master to Master Sun and Chairman Wang, and a group of old men held wine glasses and laughed happily at each other.

"Chairman Dongfang, as the organizer of this competition, and you also serve as a judge, will Donghuang Hotel take special care of its own teams during the competition?"

A light blue evening dress sets off the graceful, sexy and plump Dongfang Qing like a princess, her shoulders are snow-white, her collarbones are attractive, and the opening of the evening dress reveals a touch of intoxicating whiteness.

Hearing the reporter's slightly difficult question, Dongfang Qing pulled the long wavy hair around her ears, looked at the camera, and said with a smile.

"If that's the case, then I won't give up the host's right to qualify directly for the primary, hehe, please rest assured, this time will be a fair competition, of course, there will be care, that is, the chefs in our hotel don't have to go through the long journey like the other players, they are all well rested."

Hearing Dongfang Qing's slightly humorous answer, the reporters all laughed.

"Chairman Dongfang, I heard that your husband, the former basketball coach of the national team, will also serve as a judge for this competition, is this true?"

After the reporter finished asking, he put the microphone on Dongfang Qing's mouth and waited for her answer, but this time Dongfang Qing was no longer as fluent as before.

Hearing this question, Dongfang Qing's warm and beautiful eyes were obviously lowered, but soon, she nodded with a smile.

"Well, he's supposed to come, but I can't guarantee it, because he's still at home with the kids."

After the reporters smiled, another female reporter asked.

"Chairman Dongfang, your husband used to be a very good basketball player, and in the competition a few years ago, he led the kung fu basketball team to win the championship at that time, do you know why he quit the national basketball team back then? And a few years ago, he even resigned as the coach of the national team, so what is he mainly doing now? ”

Mei's eyes turned slightly, and Dongfang Qing smiled faintly, "It's inconvenient to tell you about this, or when he comes tomorrow, you can ask him in person." ”

Seeing that the smile on Dongfang Qing's face was much less, and there was a faint indifference in his words, the reporters stopped asking questions with interest, and instead talked about some things about the competition, but as soon as Dongfang Qing's voice fell, a cheap voice suddenly sounded.

"Xiaoqing, what are you talking about? Will Xiaowei also be a judge? Then you have to give me a whole judge! ”

The reporters turned their heads to look, only to see a suave man suddenly squeezing over from behind, pulling the reporters next to him, and shouting excitedly at Dongfang Qing.

"Xiaoqing is really fake, Xiaowei is really willing to go out?! Haha, wait, I'll call Zhou Liang, and we'll accompany him to be a judge when the time comes. ”

Listening to the incomprehensible words of his cousin-in-law, and looking at the wonderful eyes of the reporters, Dongfang Qing rarely straightened his face.

"Boss Qi, please don't joke, not everyone can be the judge."

I haven't seen him for many years, and the eldest prince of Qi is still so handsome and chic, but after inheriting his father's real estate group, the eldest prince of Qi actually grew a circle of beard on his chin, not to mention, it looks really a lot of masculinity, of course, the expression on his face is still as unobtrusive as ever.

No, Boss Qi is now putting his arm around the shoulders of a female reporter, revealing the old appearance of a playboy.

"Xiaoqing, why is this still with me? You know, I'm your cousin-in-law, do you talk to your elders like this? Besides, I'm the sponsor of this competition, so it's not easy to get a judge? By the way, leave one for Zhou Liang too, we haven't played with Xiaowei for many years. ”

Dongfang Qing covered her forehead with a headache, and quickly explained to the reporter with a smile.

"Don't listen to Boss Qi's nonsense, he's just joking, after all, he's always been so funny and humorous."

"I'm not kidding."

"Hehe, everyone saw it, Boss Qi is so funny."

"I'm really not kidding!"

"You've opened a room with me three times in the last month."

"Well, Chairman Dongfang is right, even if I am a sponsor, I must not use money for personal gain, you must know that this is a very bastard thing!"

Dongfang Qing reluctantly gave Qi Bin a roll of his eyes, saying that after so many years, the eldest prince of Qi still looked like he was dead, and he couldn't see any growth.

But......

Thinking of this, Dongfang Qing's beautiful eyes were slightly lowered.

But let him play with that guy, yes, yes?

——————————

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that Chairman Zhang was also so interested in calligraphy and painting, and his insights were so unique.

The old man waved his hand again and again, "Mine is not, mine is not, in this way, I will punish myself now." ”

In the laughter of a group of leaders, Dao Ye raised his chin proudly, and then continued to talk with Mayor Zhao with a little pride about the famous painting of Li Tang in the Song Dynasty that he bought in his office specifically to fill the façade.

To put it mildly, what the Taoist said was called the Tao, and what he said was called a person with a unique vision and didn't know, and he really thought he was a person who had a deep study of calligraphy and painting.

Well, here's the question, how did the Taoist master, who has never been very interested in calligraphy and painting, do this?

In fact, it is very simple, because the famous painting of Li Tang in the Song Dynasty was bought by Dao Ye from the auction house for a whole three million to fill the façade, and after buying it back, Dao Ye also deliberately put in a lot of hard work, and carefully memorized the opinions and some unique views written by experts for him, just to show himself off in today's days.

An authentic trick is eaten all over the world.

And it was precisely by virtue of his own trick that Dao Ye quickly became friends with Mayor Zhao, who loved calligraphy and painting, and the two stood together and communicated eagerly, just like old friends who had not seen each other for many years.

Of course, when taking pictures with Mayor Zhao, Dao Ye also secretly threw a bank card into the sleeve of Mayor Zhao's clothes, and this time, Dao Ye officially became Mayor Zhao's old brother who lived and died together, and the mayor patted Dao Ye on the shoulder, shouting one brother after another, not to mention more affection.

At this time, just as Dao Ye bit his ear and asked Mayor Zhao if he wanted to come and sit with him if he was free, Carl suddenly held a wine glass and passed by Dao Ye's side.

"Come on, come on, I'll introduce you to a guy, this guy is Carl, it's my lobby manager, well, he's also the heir to the British Burren consortium, and he's currently interning at my hotel."

Mayor Zhao and the others didn't react when they heard the Bolun Group, but the food critic Old Man Wang suddenly exclaimed.

"The Chamberlain Group?! I've heard that it's a huge family business in the UK with a global presence. ”

As soon as Mr. Wang said this, all the leaders looked at the polite Carl, their eyes were full of surprise, and Carl also appropriately showed his qualities as the heir of a foreign consortium.

"Good evening, gentlemen, my name is Carl Burn, and it's a pleasure to meet you all today."

As he spoke, Karl bowed very politely.

Looking at Carl's extraordinary temperament and conversation, everyone nodded secretly, and then boasted that Dao Ye was lucky to find such an excellent young man.

After Carl helped him earn some face, the Taoist at this moment really had a little feeling of being immortal, patting Carl's arm, and the old face was happy.

"Okay, okay little card, you can play alone, I know that you can't talk to us old guys to go together, so I won't force you."

Karl smiled politely, nodded slightly, and prepared to visit the chefs who were being interviewed by reporters, and ask for information by the way.

But at this time, as soon as Carl was about to leave, Dao Ye grabbed his arm, looked at the crowded banquet hall, and Dao Ye asked strangely.

"Hey, Xiaoka, where are those kids?"

Hearing this, Carl pushed the frame of his sunglasses a little embarrassed, of course he knew who the children in Daoye's mouth were, and at the moment, Carl pointed to the left side with some embarrassment.

Dao Ye looked in the direction pointed by Carl, and looked at the five heads of goods around the table on the left side who were gobbling up, without any food, and almost wrote a few big characters on the face of the starving ghost, Dao Ye immediately retracted his gaze, and continued to chat with the leaders with a smile, but a sentence faintly popped out of his mouth.

"Don't say you know them."

"Yes, got it."
