Chapter 1116 Meeting by Chance at a Banquet
Some people like to fight, while others are content with the status quo.
For example, Natasha always feels that her current position is not worthy of her talents, so she wants to climb higher. Trample underfoot all those who threaten her.
Yang Dongxu's character tends to be content with the status quo if he has no worries about food and drink. If it weren't for the fact that too many foresights always made him feel that he would suffer a big loss if he didn't grasp it. Maybe after making his first pot of gold, he would really buy a few more houses to live in apartments.
So he doesn't attend banquets, except that he feels that those banquets are too fake. It was also because almost all the people at the banquet were people who were trying their best to climb up, and I was a layman with a small farmer's mind at heart. Staying with these "hard-working" people always feels like the atmosphere is not harmonious.
Of course when you are a little person, there is such discord in aura. Then others will think that you are not a good person. And when you are a big shot with such a discordant aura and don't want to talk to other people, they will feel that a big shot is a big shot and his eyes are so different.
Moscow Red Square, located in the center of Moscow, is a world-famous tourist attraction, as well as the venue for military parades on some major Russian festivals. Standing here, you can still vaguely feel the glory of the superpower in the past.
However, while some old people stare at the Red Square in a daze and seem to be reminiscing, the young people passing by here are either coming or going in a hurry. Or just take photos with a smile on your face.
Yang Dongxu just sighed a little with emotion about this scene, and then followed by Du Suo and others, he entered a luxurious hotel nearby. Everyone has their own thoughts and preferences. Some people regard Red Square as a monument, while others regard it as a scenic spot. There is no need to be sentimental. He is not God.
"Dongxu, it's really rare to see you once." Entering the hotel, he came to a banquet hall, where there were already many people.
When he pushed the door open and walked in, Zheng Tianhe was walking quickly towards the door. Apparently he had received the news while socializing just now and wanted to come out to greet him. He didn't expect Yang Dongxu to come in so quickly.
"You're not a beauty, why would I see you if I have nothing to do?" Yang Dongxu said jokingly.
Zheng Tianhe pretended to be angry and slapped him in the face, then turned away and said, "They are all friends and don't need me to introduce them, right?"
"Old Zheng, you don't have the biggest face. Why would you introduce me?"
"That's right, that's right."
Several people behind Zheng Tianhe joked, Zheng Tianhe laughed and cursed a few words, and a group of people wanted to go to the drinking party.
The people around Zheng Tianhe were none other than representatives of some private enterprises at the Magic City International Trade Fair. After the trade fair, these private entrepreneurs deliberately formed a group to elect Yang Dongxu as president.
Yang Dongxu was obviously unwilling to do such an errand, so he had no choice but to give up on the matter. In fact, when Zheng Tianhe proposed an alliance meeting at the beginning, he also intended to participate.
But it was later delayed due to other things. Zheng Tianhe thought he was unwilling, so he didn't mention it again. Yang Dongxu felt that it didn't matter whether he did it or not, so he didn't take the initiative to say it.
However, although the alliance was not completed, as private entrepreneurs led by the state to invest in Northern Russia, everyone who came to Northern Russia was a fellow countryman and helped each other in many matters. So a loose alliance gradually formed.
Today's reception is not just the first batch of companies that came in during the previous international trade fair. There are also many bosses who were originally doing business in Northern Russia, as well as some people who joined later.
The reception was organized by North Russian officials, although what foreign businessmen coming to North Russia wanted most was the natural resources in this vast land. But the theme of today's cocktail party is all about light industry.
The purpose of the North Russian officials can be seen from the fact that the people invited to the reception were all bosses of clothing factories, daily necessities, furniture and other industries.
Yang Dongxu's invitation letter was not given by Zheng Tianhe, but an official invitation. He was noncommittal about this so he came over to take a look. When we got to the hotel, the assistant who had been downstairs all day probably recognized him and hurriedly told his boss. Then there was a scene where Zheng Tianhe led people to greet him.
Zheng Tianhe took Yang Dongxu with him and wanted to introduce him to the CEOs of other domestic companies. But as soon as we walked in, a few tall Northern Russians came over.
"Hello, Mr. Yang." The big man in the lead extended his hand to Yang Dongxu with a smile on his face, "I only heard that you arrived in Moscow yesterday, otherwise I would have invited you earlier and helped you arrange a hotel."
"You're welcome, Mr. Akoev, I just came to Moscow temporarily because of something." Yang Dongxu smiled and stretched out his hand, and the two shook hands in a very friendly manner.
The Akoife in front of him was none other than the initiator of this meeting. The Deputy Minister of Agriculture of North Russia. As for why it was clearly initiated by the Minister of Commerce and Agriculture, that is an official matter.
As for him, he only arrived yesterday, and the other party directly invited him to come and attend the reception. In fact, you don’t need to think about it to know why.
"Mr. Yang's Russian is really good."
"My father-in-law once studied in Northern Russia, and was a good friend of Uncle Ivan, who passed away the day before yesterday. He taught me Russian. He must have passed on all the true biography of the teacher he received while studying abroad."
Since the other party took the initiative to come over and say hello, Yang Dongxu naturally didn't mind defining the purpose of his visit to Moscow this time.
He just came to attend the funeral of an elder. He didn't want to cause trouble or get involved in those messy things. Whether Akoife believes it or not, or whether the people behind him believe it, is none of his business.
"It is indeed a pity that Mr. Ivan passed away. It is a pity that I just returned to China this morning and did not go to see him off." Akoyev said with a sad tone.
"Indeed, I hope he can live well in heaven." Yang Dongxu also said with some sadness.
Then the two exchanged a few more pleasantries and chatted about some meaningless things. Akoyev, as the initiator of this cocktail party, went to greet other guests. Yang Dongxu looked at him politely and walked away for a distance before turning around to talk to Zheng Tianhe and others.
However, his eyes paused for a moment when he turned around.
"What's wrong?" Zheng Tianhe looked over along his gaze and his face was also stunned.
Because it was a woman who made Yang Dongxu pause, or a woman who made people feel very stunning and tempting.
In fact, the most indispensable thing at a business cocktail party is beautiful women, even if it is an official business cocktail party. After all, just looking at beautiful things will make you feel better.
However, the woman Yang Dongxu saw was not a Russian beauty, but a Chinese. The first impression of young and beautiful Russian women is often tall.
The first impression Yang Dongxu got from this Chinese woman was that she was charming. She exuded the charm of a mature peach, which made men feel hungry when they saw her.
"Do you know her?" Zheng Tianhe's expression was somewhat ambiguous. After all, men are more or less stubborn when they see beautiful women.
"Forget it." Yang Dongxu nodded.
Zheng Tianhe looked at Yang Dongxu with some doubts, because just now Akoyve came to chat with Yang Dongxu, and many eyes were focused on this side at the party, including the woman Yang Dongxu was looking at.
It was just that when Yang Dongxu looked calm, the look of the woman who was looking at him seemed a little wrong.
And looking at Yang Dongxu's current appearance, it seemed that he had no intention of going over to say hello, and the other party had no intention of coming over to get to know him. He couldn't figure out what the relationship between the two was for a while.
However, although Zheng Tianran was curious, it was not real gossip. Or he didn't have the brain to make such a joke in this occasion.
So he took Yang Dongxu to the domestic business circle, introduced each other and chatted, so that Yang Dongxu would not be too lonely. The time passed quickly.
"Boss, do you want to check that person?" Looking at the series of convoys leaving, anyone with a brain knows that the young man who just chatted with Akoyev and seemed to have a lot of prestige in the domestic business circle is not simple.
"No, we can't afford to offend him." Liu Yingying shook her head.
That's right, the woman Yang Dongxu saw at the meeting who made men excited was none other than Liu Yingying, the current wife of Chen Xin's ex-husband.
So when Yang Dongxu saw Liu Yingying, his eyes paused. Obviously, it was not a common problem for men as Zheng Tianhe thought at the beginning. It was just that he was a little surprised to see Liu Yingying at such a cocktail party in Moscow.
But he didn't have a good impression of this woman, nor could he say that he had any bad feelings. After all, the matter between Chen Xin and his ex-husband was over. If it weren't for this chance encounter, the two sides might not have had any intersection in this life. Yang Dongxu naturally didn't care about insignificant people.
But he didn't take Liu Yingying to heart, but Liu Yingying couldn't treat him so easily. After all, when dealing with her husband Zhu Baicheng's affairs. Yang Dongxu's strength made Liu Yingying see the dominance of this young man.
What Liu Yingying didn't expect was that this young man with a deep background who was doing well in the country seemed to have a very powerful relationship in Northern Russia.
Because Liu Yingying, who had a very sharp look, found that the deputy minister of the Ministry of Agriculture who was just at the meeting, although he seemed to be chatting casually with Yang Dongxu. But the attitude and expression on his face did not want to face other people with politeness and arrogance, but completely equal and even a little cautious.
A foreign deputy minister of agriculture was cautious when talking to Yang Dongxu on his own territory. Liu Yingying felt that she seemed to have to re-evaluate the strength of this young yamen.
That's right!
Liu Yingying has always regarded Yang Dongxu as a yamen with a great background, Chen Xin found a good lover. Even though she knew that Yang Dongxu was the boss of Qianxi. But she didn't take it seriously. After all, isn't it surprising that such good resources can build a business?
But now, she obviously feels that her previous thoughts were a bit too simple.
Although she was very curious, she stopped her curiosity. Because since she found that she couldn't afford to offend this young man, and there was something unpleasant. Then she should stay away from this person and not provoke him in the future.
