Chapter 603: There are fishing friends here too
"Their kind of gatherings, generally do not talk about specific work, let alone take the opportunity to poach people, this is a customary rule, everyone just use this opportunity to contact and contact feelings, to resolve the grievances accumulated in the usual work, and if you agree to Paul's advice, you will fall for him, so that Thomas will no longer trust me, and Paul can't trust you very much because of me, he is killing two birds with one stone." Erin took advantage of Thomas and Paul arguing about the rules, and whispered in Hong Tao's ear why she had pinched him just now.
"Holy! So insidious! Don't learn from them in the future! Hong Tao heard Erin's explanation, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, although he knew that Americans were not stupid, but he didn't expect them to be so familiar with people.
In the end, Paul still didn't admit that he had broken the rules, but promised not to mention the hiring of Hong Tao here again, so everyone started chatting again. With a group of lawyers, Hong Tao really had nothing to talk about except for the little information in his memory, but he had already known the result, and he had prepared in advance and found something to do for himself, so as not to sit in the middle of the crowd like a fool and be stunned.
Hong Tao was prepared to take his camera, since there was nothing to talk about, then he went to take pictures to play, and after obtaining the consent of the lawyers present, he began to walk around the venue with his camera, patting the food, patting the night scene outside the window, and by the way, also patting the women in revealing evening dresses.
After a round and turn, Hong Tao ate a small snack on the dining table, and then returned to Thomas and their circle with a glass of champagne, intending to hear what Erin was talking to them. His daughter-in-law is now a bit of a strong woman, and when she talks about business, she doesn't repeat it for half an hour, and she loves to communicate with these lawyers, like a half-dried sponge thrown into a basin of water.
"Hong Tao, you're back, I told them you're a champion fishing champion in China, Japan and Europe. They didn't believe it, and they made fun of me for bragging for my husband, give me your camera, and I'll prove it to them, hurry up! As soon as Hong Tao found a place to sit on the edge of the sofa and was about to taste what this pink glass of champagne was like, Erin in the crowd trotted over and almost tripped over her skirt.
"They don't know how to fish, isn't it in vain that you tell them this?" Hong Tao understood Erin's thoughts very well, and the woman didn't want to talk about how her husband was in front of outsiders or colleagues. It's a pity that in addition to the success of being a god stick, there is really nothing for Erin to show off his exploits to these New York elites, as for fishing, you talk to a group of lawyers about fishing, and they have to understand!
"Oh, Mr. Hong, I'm very dissatisfied with your statement, can't lawyers know how to fish? You are discriminating against this profession of lawyers! "Paul can actually understand Chinese! This made Hong Tao very embarrassed, and it is not a good habit to speak ill of others behind his back, no matter in that country. It's going to be looked down upon.
"Sorry! I'm sorry! I don't mean that, a lot of people understand fishing, I mean fishing competitions, and most people don't play games that are too intense. After all, fishing is a recreational sport. Hong Tao saw that Paul was also translating his words to the lawyers around him, and knew that he had committed public anger, so he quickly tried to defend himself.
"Are you really a master fisherman? And a European champion!? Paul is one of those aggressive personalities, or you're right. Otherwise, it's not easy for you to fool him in front of him anyway.
"I don't dare to say that I am a master, but I have a little research. I've only won one European carp fishing competition, and I'm not alone, I'm with Pan's husband Max and his brother. Hong Tao couldn't be fooled at first, and he simply didn't fool him, it seems that this Paul should be able to fish, or he wouldn't be so desperate to hold on to his pigtails, saying that he still has a little bit of a weak heart, saying that who is afraid of fishing!
"There are also Chinese champions and Japanese champions, Hong Tao also went to Canada to fish, and no one in the local area can beat him! I have proof here, you see! "Erin's behavior at this time is very different from her dress, she does not look like a mature lady at all, but becomes a more real little girl. She took Hongtao's digital camera, took pictures of Europe from several spare memory cards, and put them on the screen to show Paul.
"This image is too small, I can't see it clearly, Barr, you go to the manager here and ask him to send someone to put the photo inside on the projection, Mr. Hong, don't you mind if we openly enjoy your catch, right?" Paul really got into a fight with Erin, he said a word to a lawyer next to him, and then asked Hong Tao for his opinion.
"Hong Tao, let them see, I made a bet with them, if I lose, I will accompany them to dance, my high heels are too high, very tired." Erin began to play tricks with Hong Tao, she was tired of walking in high heels Hong Tao had just seen it yesterday, and I didn't dare to say more, there must be no problem at all with walking ten kilometers, of course, the walking environment is also very important, one point should be in the mall.
"I'm fine, just put it away, as long as everyone likes to watch it." Even if Erin doesn't cheat, Hong Tao can't let his daughter-in-law lose, how can he let his daughter-in-law be hugged by those old perverts to dance, and everyone accompanies her, thinking beautifully!
The manager of the hotel quickly called in a professional, then connected a laptop to the projector, then put down the projection screen that had been hanging on the wall, and after a few minutes of adjustment, the lights in this corner were dimmed and it was ready.
"Mr. Paul, our bet counts, right? If Hong Tao is really a champion, then you have to dance a striptease here! Erin sat in front of her laptop with a memory card in her hand and challenged Paul one last time.
"With so many peers testifying to me, I, Paul, never broke my promise with my lady! But I have one condition, that is, Mr. Hong must be the protagonist of the fishing competition, if he is a substitute or helper, then even if you lose, you can prove it to us if you agree! Paul sat on the couch with a cigar in his mouth, not nervous at all, and confidently agreed to Erin's terms.
"Alright, let's get started!" Erin reached out and high-fived Paul, then happily inserted the memory card into the card reader and began to select the pictures on the computer.
After a while, the first photo appeared on the projection screen, which was the one where Hong Tao came to the stage to accept the award, in which he was holding a model of a big check and stretching out a scissor hand, looking very silly.
"This doesn't count, this is a group award, and it doesn't meet my conditions." Paul's body sat up slightly from the couch, stared at the picture for a few seconds, and then said slowly.
"Well, there's the next one!" Erin clicked the mouse in relief, and the picture on the screen was changed again.
"Oh, it's the heaviest prize for a single tail!"
"14.75 kg! How many pounds is that? ”
"Probably...... That's about 32 pounds and 8 ounces. ”
Less than 10 people sitting on the sofa saw this photo, and began to make all kinds of exclamations, and two of them escaped from their mobile phones, busy converting the difference between metric units and imperial units, here in the United States generally do not use metric units such as meters, centimeters, kilometers, kilograms, and grams, but use the imperial units of feet, inches, miles, pounds, and ounces, which is also a thing that makes Hong Tao very distressed, and he doesn't know how big a number he should buy when buying clothes.
"Okay, if I lost, there are no other photos, I want to see more, as compensation for me to go striptease." After Paul saw this photo, he finally stopped quibbling and directly conceded defeat, but still put forward an additional condition.
"Okay, no problem, there are 4 memory cards here, which are all photos of Hong Tao going fishing, he just came back from Brazil this time, he went fishing in the Amazon River, I heard him say that he caught a fish called flathead catfish, it weighs hundreds of pounds, I haven't had time to look at the photos, they are all in it." Erin was in a good mood after the victory, and generously agreed to this small request of the defeated opponent, and took the memory cards to explain the contents to Paul.
"Thomas, you have found a very cunning and good employee, if she told me in advance that Mr. Hong is such a person who can go to Brazil to specialize in fishing, I will definitely not bet with her, I can't imagine that I will also be calculated!" While listening to Irene's explanation, Paul shook his head and sighed that he had played eagle all his life, and finally let the little house finch peck blind.
The mouse was changed to Paul's hand this time, he put the photos of Hong Tao in Europe one by one, and then changed to the part of the Amazon River, without looking at a few photos, he would ask Hong Tao some fishing questions such as what method to fish for, what bait to use, how to feel on the fish, and asked very professionally, it seems that this elite person is really a fishing enthusiast.
As the last card was inserted, Irene's face suddenly became unnatural, because this card recorded the picture of them going hunting in Canada, including photos of Erin and Hong Tao bathing naked in the hot springs, smoking marijuana together in the tent and making out, these photos were originally in Boss Liu's camera, and the people who took pictures were both Boss Liu himself, as well as Casey and Liu Xiaomei, and later transferred to Hong Tao, due to the long time, Hong Tao also forgot to clean up, and as a result, they were all released, Fishing shows suddenly became adult movies.
"There are no more fishing photos here, give me back the card!" Erin couldn't sit still and was going to take back control of the mouse. (To be continued......)
