"Lao Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time, haha, I'm late, I'm 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, held the hand of an old man in a suit and leather shoes and full of silver threads, and slowly walked into the banquet hall.

And the old man beside her smiled kindly, then walked through the crowd and walked directly towards the Dao Ye who was drinking stuffy wine.

The old man's figure was not very tall, and his appearance was not outstanding, but the expression on his face was very amiable, and he smiled and nodded at anyone, like a kind elder.

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

Seeing Dongfang Qing's father, Dongfang Mingqi didn't even pay attention to the reporter's interview, but came directly to himself, how could Dao Ye be moved.

As soon as he grabbed Dongfang Mingqi's outstretched hand, Dao Ye smiled again and again, "Brother Dongfang, you are joking, I actually didn't come too early, why are we all front and back." ”

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

Dao Ye waved his hand a little flattered and smiled, "No, no, and the children are here, I can't leave, 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 Daoye, and then the old man took Daoye's hand and went directly to Mayor Zhao beside him.

"Lao Zhao Lao Wang, come on, come on, I'll 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 chairman of the provincial catering association, this is the city's famous food critic Mr. Wang."

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

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

"Everywhere, this is what we should do, by the way, I heard that Mayor Zhao and Mr. Wang like famous paintings very much, but I ....... 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, doing what they should do.

Seeing this, the sixth master, who had his hands behind his back, looked at Dongfang Mingqi who helped the Taoist master pull the strings, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

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

Holding the wine glass, 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 him." ”

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

As he spoke, the sixth master squeezed his eyes at Carl and said, "It's a pity, all the people who came tonight are old men, and there are basically few beautiful girls, otherwise with your kid's face, I'm afraid you 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." ”

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

After speaking, the sixth master directly took the fifth master and the seventh master to Master Sun and Chairman Wang, and a group of old guys 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 figure and plump Dongfang Qing like a princess, her shoulders are snow-white, her collarbones are attractive, and the opening of the evening dress reveals an intoxicating whiteness.

Hearing the reporter's difficult question, Dongfang Qing pulled the long 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 Dongfang Qing no longer answered like before this time.

Hearing this, her beautiful eyes lowered slightly, but soon, she smiled and nodded.

"Well, he's supposed to come, but I'm not sure because he's going to be 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? ”

Dongfang Qing was silent for a while, and then smiled warmly, "It's inconvenient to tell you about this, or when he comes tomorrow, you can ask him in person." ”

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? You'll 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 beside him, and asked Dongfang Qing excitedly.

"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 his cousin-in-law's incoherent words, 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, although 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 has grown a beard on his chin, not to mention that he really looks a lot of masculinity, of course, the expression on his face is still as out of tune 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, do you still come to this set 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, and it's not easy to get a judge's position, by the way, I'll leave one for Zhou Liang, we haven't played with Xiaowei for many years. ”

Dongfang Qing covered her forehead with a headache, and then 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."

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

"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.

——————————

"Really? It turns out that Chairman Zhang is also so interested in famous paintings, and his insights are so unique, I wonder how you introduced Chairman Zhang to us, it's too much. ”

Dongfang Mingqi waved his hand again and again, "Mine is not, mine is not, so I'll punish myself." ”

Dao Ye continued to talk to Mayor Zhao with a little pride about the famous paintings of the Song Dynasty in his office, which were bought specifically for the façade, and said politely, the one who talks about it is called the Tao, and the one that is talked about is called a unique vision.

So how did Daoye, who has never liked calligraphy and painting very much, do this? In fact, it is very simple, because the famous painting of the Song Dynasty was bought back from the auction house by Dao Ye for a full eight million, and after buying it back, Dao Ye also deliberately worked hard, and seriously memorized the opinions and some unique views of the famous painting written by experts for him, just to pretend to be forced in today's day, show off himself, and eat an authentic trick all over the world.

And it was precisely by virtue of his own trick that Dao Ye quickly became friends with Mayor Zhao, who loves calligraphy and painting.

At this time, Carl passed by Dao Ye with a wine bottle, Dao Ye had sharp eyes, saw him at a glance, and then dragged Carl over, and introduced him to the leaders very enthusiastically.

"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 old man surnamed Wang who was a food critic 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 Old Man 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 praised Dao Ye for his good luck.

After Carl helped him earn some face, Dao Ye really felt a little like a fairy, patted Carl's arm, and the old face was happy.

"Okay Xiaoka, you can play alone, I know that you can't talk to us old guys about going together, so I won't force you."

Karl smiled politely, nodded slightly, and then prepared to take a look around the chefs who were interviewed by reporters and inquire about information.

But at this time, Karl was just about to leave, when Dao Ye suddenly grabbed his arm and looked strangely at the people coming and going.

"Hey, Xiaoka, where are those people?"

Carl pushed the frame of his sunglasses with some embarrassment, of course he knew who those people in Daoye's mouth were, at the moment, Carl pointed to the right side with some embarrassment.

Dao Ye looked in the direction pointed by Carl, and looked at the five heads of goods who were gobbling up around the table on the left, without any food, almost writing the words of the starving ghost on his face, 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."
