Chapter 161 To make others believe your words, it is best to follow...
Yiheju can be called a model of "people-oriented". The rooms on the second floor from the middle to the private room at the top can be opened up, because the partitions between them are all made of wood, with pulleys on them, and they can be pushed around.
A spacious hall. Square and square, it is a good place for a buffet.
This was modified by the boss many years ago when Western-style restaurants became popular in Shanghai. Unexpectedly, it came in handy today and made them a lot of money.
In the special private room at the top, Mu Tian and the main guests were inside. Although they were enjoying the same Western-style buffet as outside, the layout was Chinese-style. More than twenty people gathered around the round table, circling each other.
Toast and talk.
The private room was full of important people that night, and among these people, Qiao Shikuan was the most important. Except for those from the public affairs department who were out to discuss business and returned to China for vacation, the other eleven people were all present. Of course, Qiao Shikuan was specially invited.
Feng Jichen and his daughter Feng Ruyun.
Lin Xiangyun sat next to Qiao Shikuan, accepting people's greetings after Qiao Shikuan. He didn't know that he would soon own 40% of Qiao Shikuan's shares in Hengxiang Department Store, so he felt very unhappy about this semi-indifference or even ridicule.
Yue tried to escape several times, but was always held back by Qiao Shikuan.
But Mu Tian seemed to be drowned in this group of people. He sat in his seat, looking like he was at the bottom of the crowd, feeling lost and depressed.
Ji Ruoxi, who was flying all over the place like butterflies, looked at Mu Tian and felt a little sad, "Are you spending so much effort just to make yourself unhappy?" She often had this idea, but she was worried about getting rid of it herself.
Focusing on her own job, she knew very well that she was here to work tonight, not to have fun. Even though she liked the novelty of the masquerade party.
Businessmen from Chinatown, big and small, were all lingering in the hall, eating various Western-style snacks, sipping foreign wine and drinks, looking for Ouyang Hui's classmates who were willing to talk to them.
This is a light masquerade party. Except for various masks worn and held, there are no costume requirements and no role-playing. Therefore, the true face can still be recognized, as long as you look carefully.
When greetings turned into confiding in each other's hearts, when fighting turned into arm-in-arms, when men and women who met each other no longer needed masks but exchanged phone addresses, the big clock on the Bund struck nine times.
Yingzi came in. She was wearing a Western-style floor-length dress, and she came gracefully, which attracted thunderous applause in the room, and even Mu Tian was stunned.
She whispered softly and asked the guests to move to the hall. The host of the banquet had important news to announce and to "have fun with the people." After she finished speaking, she watched Mu Tian walk away, knelt down, and stretched out her hand to Mu Tian.
sky.
Mu Tian stood up, bowed, and walked towards the door with Yingzi's slender fingers.
Everyone got up one after another and followed him away.
For these Chinatown merchants, it was normal for them to have dealings with certain bigwigs in the concessions. Most of them had the opportunity to gather together with so many bigwigs like this for the first time.
Surprise and information were intertwined, and there was applause like the wind.
Yingzi had to use the microphone to let people understand that the organizer of the party was going to give a speech next.
In the still noisy background, Mu Tian talked about the purpose of his Neil Detective Agency, the projects it serves, the people it serves, and its own advantages.
As usual, there was applause. During his narration, at every node that needed applause, there would be some. He said that the current situation is chaotic, people's hearts are not old, various cases are emerging one after another, and the police force is limited, then Neil Detective Agency will
It came into being at the historic moment and is a powerful supplement to the police force. We hope to serve the citizens of Shanghai wholeheartedly, relieve difficulties and seek justice.
Led by Yingzi, the applause started again.
However, in general, Mu Tian's appearance and speech did not bring any backlash. His gold-gilded business card attracted a lot of discussion. It was more like a warm-up before the important moment.
Mu Tian didn't seem to care about this outcome, but happily handed over the right to speak to Qiao Shikuan.
Qiao Shikuan followed the script provided by Mitian and did not dare to perform at all. He said that Hengxiang would hold an opening ceremony on a certain date and hoped that everyone could come and give guidance. He solemnly introduced his partner Lin Xiangyun and praised Lin Xiangyun.
The characteristics of a young talent shaped his image as a business wizard.
Lin Xiangyun was relatively low-key. He only thanked Senior Qiao Shikuan for his support and Inspector Mu Tian for providing such a good platform to get to know so many business leaders. He hoped that everyone could support each other and create new glory for Shanghai's business.
"Who is this? Where did he come from? Why have I never heard of it before?"
"Yeah, right after you just debuted, you were able to snag a big boss like Qiao Shikuan, and you even took 40% of Hengxiang's shares?"
"This guy has some clues."
"A bit? You don't know, Qiao Shikuan has a son who has been missing for twenty years. Could it be that he has found him?"
"You think it's Lin Xiangyun? You can pull him down!"
"What are you trying to pull down? He's not his biological son. He's so young and doesn't earn any interest in the world. How about giving him 40% of the shares?"
"If I tell you to pull him down, you should pull him down. Do you think they look alike? Let me tell you, this Lin Xiangyun will soon be our mayor Lin Xiao's cousin!"
"What did you say, cousin? How did you know?"
"I have a cousin who is on business in Nanjing. He said that Lin Xiao has been in Shanghai in the past two days, mainly to revitalize Shanghai's economy. He used to be the president of North China Bank, and he is very good at handling the economy."
"This is reliable."
At this time, Qiao Shikuan picked up the microphone and coughed twice, and the scene immediately fell silent. "Everyone, let me say a few more words. Originally, Mr. Lin didn't let me reveal it, but this is good news. Mr. Lin's cousin Lin Xiao
My husband is about to come to our Chinatown to be the mayor of DaDao City. The government appointed him as the mayor for a purpose, which is to promote post-war reconstruction, especially in Nan City and Zhabei, the areas that suffered heavy losses. Also
It is to take measures to revitalize Shanghai's economy. Mr. Lin Xiao is a good hand in economic construction. He studied finance in Japan. After returning to China, he served as the president of North China Bank. He is an expert and expert in economic management. He came
It means that it will bring us a lot of opportunities to make a lot of money and make a fortune."
There was a commotion below, mixed with moderate applause.
At this time, Ji Ruoxi appeared in front of Lin Xiangyun appropriately, "Hello, Mr. Lin, I am Ji Ruoxi, a reporter from Oriental Morning News. Can I ask you a few questions?"
"sure."
"It is said that your cousin Mr. Lin Xiao will arrive in Shanghai soon, is that right?"
"Yes, he should be sitting on the train bound for Shanghai now. He will arrive in Shanghai in the middle of the night today, that is, early tomorrow morning."
"Mr. Lin, is Lin Xiao your cousin's real name?" Why would you ask such a nonsensical question? However, hearing Ji Ruoxi's question, Mu Tian secretly smiled.
Lin Xiangyun looked up thoughtfully at the ceiling, then at the floor, and then took a breath, "Of course it's my real name. But because I studied in Japan, I changed it to my two sons' names for convenience."
"Can you tell me what his, uh, real name was?"
"Supposedly, this is a private matter. But it has been many years since it happened, so it doesn't matter if it is made public now. Besides, my cousin will soon take office as the mayor. His original name is Lin Xianglong."
Mu Tian laughed completely, this was a perfect ending.
If you want others to believe they saw and heard it, you'd better give them a piece of gossip.
