The Black Card

Chapter 557 Mission Completed (Congratulations to the Leader of the Xiangmeng Baby Alliance)

The two waiters kept throwing George out of the hotel and told the doorman that this person would never be allowed to enter the hotel again. They even warned George to stay away from the small square in front of the hotel because that was also within the scope of the hotel. .

Standing on the side of the road, George still couldn't come to his senses. He didn't understand how Song Miaomiao, an assistant in a small company, had such an important boyfriend as Shi Lei.

And Shi Lei also looked very ordinary, low-key like a passerby. How could he have such a big reputation that he could let Huo Chengdong hold such a grand cocktail party for him.

George will probably never know that he completely reversed the positions of Shi Lei and Song Miaomiao. Although Huo Chengdong and Shi Lei were close friends, the scale of this reception was largely due to Song Miaomiao.

The phone rang, and it took George a long time to react.

When he took out the phone and looked at it, George's heart dropped to the bottom.

The call was from his boss Jack. It was obvious what it meant to call at this time.

He answered the phone in despair, but Jack's voice seemed very calm. He said: "George, considering that we have been happy to work together before, you can submit your resignation report yourself. If you submit your resignation report yourself, I will not take this as an example." The matter has been reported to the U.S. headquarters."

George understood that this was a threat. Although Jack seemed to remain calm, if he did not take the initiative to submit his resignation report, he would be greeted by an order from the headquarters to resign, and he would receive a very bad comment on his resignation report. . If that were the case, he would never want to be in this industry again.

"Jack, why?!" George still wanted to struggle to his death.

Jack took a deep breath and said: "George, I want you to have a good negotiation with the other party's company and raise the price as much as possible, instead of letting you mess up the negotiation. What's more, tonight you I also offended all the local Chinese people. If I hadn’t been brave and begged the other party not to expose this matter, the call you received now would not be from me, but from the Immigration Bureau.”

George was dumbfounded, and Jack had already hung up the phone. Hearing the phone's beeps change from two beeps to extremely quiet, George could no longer stand and fell onto the streets of Sydney.

In the hotel, in the multi-function hall, Huo Chengdong was apologizing to Shi Lei.

Shi Lei smiled and said: "Mr. Huo is too polite. This is just an accident. Life is always full of accidents. This is not your fault."

Huo Chengdong nodded and said: "Xiao Gong called me just now. I heard everything at the scene. Don't worry, this George will never stay in that company again. I originally thought that where Ms. Song and George were... There is a business cooperation with the company, and the negotiations are deadlocked, so I want to invite Jack, the person in charge of their company, to make friends with us, so that the negotiations will go more smoothly. But I didn’t expect that Jack is not in Sydney, so this would happen. thing."

Shi Lei smiled slightly and shook his head to express that it was nothing.

Then, Huo Chengdong said to all the guests in the multi-function hall: "Everyone, I am very sorry that I have made everyone unhappy tonight. I am here to express my sincere apologies to you."

Huo Chengdong didn't have many friends. Most of the people who came tonight were close friends with him, so naturally they wouldn't care too much. Especially everyone understands that Huo Chengdong is not at fault in this matter, but that George is arrogant, but he happened to mention it on the iron plate, and he still has that kind of American arrogance in his bones. Such a person will not get into trouble today. , something will happen sooner or later.

After everyone said they didn't mind, Huo Chengdong apologized again and again, and then took Shi Lei to the front of the multi-function hall, picked up the microphone and said: "Everyone, I originally wanted to wait until the banquet is over before introducing this friend to everyone. But since it has been done in advance, Now that I have made my appearance, let me take up a few minutes of your precious dining time to introduce you. This is what I told you before, my long-lasting acquaintance. Although we have only known each other for a short time, we are very close to each other. So, I would like to introduce him to everyone. Most of those here tonight are Chinese, and we may be able to help each other in business in the future. His name is Shi Lei, and Lei means three stones. So in his own words, He is just four stones. Even though Mr. Shi is young, he has a unique vision and extraordinary knowledge. Please give me your support for the upcoming auction."

There was a round of applause in the multifunctional hall, and many people even raised their hands to wave to Shi Lei.

Shi Lei also waved and took the microphone from Huo Chengdong's hand, said a few words of humility, and thanked Huo Chengdong for his organization and everyone present for their support.

This time, of course, Shi Lei could never return to the last table and could only sit on the main table. Song Miaomiao, as his female companion, of course followed closely.

Around 9:30, the cups and plates were emptied and the auction finally began.

The very first step was when Huo Chengdong handed the blue and white porcelain vase to the auctioneer, who placed it on the stage for everyone to appreciate one by one. This process lasted for half an hour.

Finally, the auctioneer announced the lowest price, and everyone began to raise their placards frequently. Of course, they all raised their placards very restrainedly, completely to support Shi Lei.

In the end, according to the price agreed between Shi Lei and Huo Chengdong, Shi Lei successfully took the photo of this blue and white porcelain vase from the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. The moment the auctioneer dropped the hammer, Shi Lei knew that he had successfully completed the first task Heika had given him.

After settling the bill and other procedures, the guests began to chat freely with each other. At this time, Shi Lei was no longer a transparent person that no one cared about in the venue, but had clearly become the focus of the audience. Everyone came over to exchange contact information with Shi Lei. , and exchanged contact information with Song Miaomiao. They didn't know Shi Lei's background, but just because Huo Chengdong recommended him so grandly, he must be worth paying attention to. As for Song Miaomiao's background, Huo Chengdong did not fully disclose it to these people and had reservations. But even if he had reservations, it was enough for these businessmen to take action.

When the reception reached around eleven o'clock, the guests began to leave one after another. Shi Lei, Song Miaomiao, and Huo Chengdong himself stood at the door and sent these guests out of the multi-purpose hall one by one.

After all the guests left, Shi Lei said to Huo Chengdong again: "Mr. Huo, thank you very much tonight."

Huo Chengdong smiled and said, "I'm very happy if you don't blame me. There's no need to say thank you. If it hadn't been for the accident just now, I would have made you thank me properly."

The two exchanged polite words. Shi Lei wanted to ask David to settle tonight's accounts, but Huo Chengdong stopped him and said, "Originally, this bill should indeed be handed over to you, but because of a major mistake, in order to express My apologies, I will be responsible for paying the bill today. Mr. Shi, please don’t be polite to me, this is just a little bit of my appreciation."

Shi Leixin said that I was indeed a little embarrassed, but I couldn't be polite because the damn black card would never allow me to be polite. If I really compete with you to pay the bill, the black card will definitely let me make up the money out of my own pocket. But I simply don’t have so much independent funds to supplement it.

So, Shi Lei pretended to hesitate and said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Huo. If Mr. Huo has the opportunity to return to the motherland, I will entertain Mr. Huo well."

Huo Chengdong was very satisfied with Shi Lei's performance. If Shi Lei insisted on grabbing the bill from him, it would mean that Shi Lei had a grudge.

"Okay, then it's settled."

Thanks to Xiangmeng Baby for the 100,000 reward, the leader of the reward last night, but it was too late at that time and the author did not see it. Thank you for adding more.
