Chapter 56: The Bund 18
Lin Qiuzheng took a deep breath and said excitedly towards Liu Zimo: "The situation is like this now. Yesterday, I just asked the comrades of the economic investigation team to check the financial situation of the Zhao Group, do you remember? ”
Liu Zimo nodded with a dull look in his eyes, obviously not waking up yet. Then he picked up a glass of water on the table and drank it in a big gulp. By the way, he let out a dull voice: "Yes." ”
"This call just now was made to me by Wu Wei from upstairs. said that Zhao Muqiong, the chairman and CEO of Zhao's Group, wanted to invite the two of us to dinner alone. Saying this, he couldn't help but raise his voice. The voice grew louder and louder, as if beating a drum "dong dong".
"Master, what does eating mean?" Liu Zimo looked at Lin Qiuzheng puzzled, rubbed his eyes and sat up.
Immediately, Lin Qiuzheng also sat back on his stool, staggered, lit a cigarette, and explained slowly: "I said that you are not stupid kid!" Still not enlightened? How could you suddenly invite the 2 of us to eat alone for no reason? Why do they invite us to dinner when they check their accounts here? This shows that they are weak-hearted. There must be something greasy in it! Immediately afterwards, Lin Qiuzheng spit out a smoke ring, and said: "But~ This also has to say that the Zhao Group's sense of smell is really unusually keen." Including their ability to handle crisis PR quickly enough. It's really impressive~"
"That's right! When you say this, master, this Zhao Group seems to be very powerful. They were able to find you, master. And I can also inform you through Captain Wu Wei and invite you to dinner. One can imagine how powerful their methods are. Liu Zimo reacted immediately when Lin Qiuzheng was so dialed.
This time he spit out a faint smoke ring again, closed his eyes and responded with a look of enjoyment: "Yes~ We are in the dark." As soon as they started to investigate the Zhao Group, they could find it. actually bypassed the economic investigation team and found us directly, and the other party was really not simple. Lin Qiuzheng, who was crossing Erlang's legs here, looked a little helpless, and then shook his head.
Liu Zimo stood up, his hands supporting the neck of the table and rushing forward. With a serious face, he asked, "The master." When is the time to eat? And what to eat? ”
Hearing his question, Lin Qiuzheng took out the map he usually used from the drawer. His eyes quickly glanced at the map, then he pointed at the map with his finger, looked up at Liu Zimo and said, "Here!" I don't know what to eat, though. All I know is that it's about 8 o'clock tonight, and the location is 18 on the Bund. Also, they asked me to go with you by name. ”
I never expected that the place to make an appointment for dinner would be at the famous Bund 18. Liu Zimo immediately said that it was too high-end, and he had never been there since he was born. After hearing this, Lin Qiuzheng also nodded again and again, extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand, and said, "That's it!" We don't lose when we lose! Since it's a high-class place, let's get off work now and go home and change our clothes. In the evening, let's go to meet Zhao Muqiong, the CEO of the Zhao Group, and see what tricks she can play! "Say it. The big hand also waved and signaled everyone to go back to their respective homes and find their own mothers.
Shanghai's Bund, located on the banks of the Huangpu River in the downtown area, is one of the most beautiful scenery in Shanghai and a must-see place for tourists. It faces the Huangpu River in the east and 52 buildings of different styles in the west, such as Gothic, Romanesque, Baroque, Chinese and Western walls, etc., and is known as the "International Architecture Exhibition Group". Let the people who come feel a strong, majestic, graceful, and luxurious momentum.
At night, the central square of the Bund is full of people and laughter, and the car lights are accompanied by the lights of high-rise buildings, like a continuous picture, which is more beautiful and moving than the silk woven by the legendary fairy. Foreign buildings of all colors sparkle in the light as if they were made of gold. At this moment, it is like a sleeping girl, quiet and sweet, the Nanpu Bridge on the left is like a pearl necklace around her neck, and the river water of the Huangpu River is yellow, like a yellow streamer, connecting the old city and the new city together. Looking at Pudong on the other side, the Oriental Pearl is gorgeous and colorful, like a fairy descending to earth. Jin Mao Tower and the World Financial Center, like two tall giants, stand majestically against the blue sky. The flashing lights of the tourists are constantly flickering, and they are all intoxicated by this picturesque night.
Liu Zimo and Lin Qiu were meeting on the phone at around 7:50 p.m. at the Bund 18 building in the International Architecture Expo Group. But when they saw each other, their faces changed at the same time, and they looked very surprised. Lin Qiuzheng was wearing a black suit and trousers, a windbreaker on top of his head, and a top hat on top of his head. A lit cigar was in the corner of his mouth. His dazzling appearance is simply a living Xu Wenqiang in Shanghai back then. And Liu Zimo changed into a blue and white casual shirt, at most he looked like a business person who had just gotten off work. And the more are like the courier brother who delivers takeaways.
Lin Qiuzheng quickly glanced up and down at Liu Zimo who was pestle in front of him, and asked, "Didn't you change your outfit?" Why did you dress like this? ”
Liu Zimo compared the dresses of the two sides tonight, pursed his lips and responded with a wry smile: "Master~ I don't have such an exaggerated way to go out. It's one of the pieces in my closet that looks like the most successful person. ”
After listening to him, Lin Qiuzheng thought to himself: That's it~ It's already like this anyway. Now the top priority is to go to the meeting, and the CEO Zhao Muqiong is the focus tonight.
Immediately, the two of them walked into the gate of No. 18 one after the other. But as soon as they stepped into the building, a receptionist in a tuxedo at the front entrance greeted them directly. smiled very politely, then bent down and bowed 45 degrees, and then unhurriedly stretched out one hand to stop Liu Zimo, who was walking in the front. The receptionist smiled and said to Liu Zimo: "This gentleman, I'm sorry. We're here at the main entrance of 18 on the Bund, and you're going to deliver or pick up takeaways. Please also enter through our back door here. Thank you for any inconvenience. Before the words fell, the receptionist bowed again. This couldn't help but make Liu Zimo look a little embarrassed, and turned his head to look at Lin Qiu blankly, as if to say: What should I do?
Hearing the receptionist's words, Lin Qiuzheng suddenly had an urge to laugh in his heart. He tried to hold back his laughter as much as he could, but the corners of his mouth kept twitching upward.
