Chapter 312 A Good Horse Never Turns Back (Subscribe)
After the inauguration ceremony of the chamber of commerce, a reception luncheon was held in the banquet hall of the hotel in the north annex building.
The accommodation of this high-end hotel has not yet been completed, but the catering project on the first floor has opened first. The strategy of the hotel is very obvious, to seize the high-end market in the university city as soon as possible.
Before entering the table, many people came to say hello to Lu Dong.
A person in charge of a company that produces imported meat came over and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, our local enterprise in the university town, you Lu's catering is the leader, you have to bring the brothers below, when will we cooperate? "
Lu Dong was quite polite: "If there is a chance, there must be a chance."
The two exchanged some polite words and business cards.
There is also someone who does mechanical processing, and after exchanging business cards with Lu Dong, he wants to find time to talk about kitchen machinery.
I opened a decoration company and asked Lu Dong about the decoration of the new store.
Compared with the early days of opening the store, it took a lot of effort to find everything, but now companies that want to cooperate with each other come to them by themselves, as if as long as Lu Dong agrees, cooperation and the like are nothing to worry about.
If Lu Dong's conditions were similar, he would definitely choose his existing partners.
However, he is also very enthusiastic about socializing with people, because people and companies are changing, and no one can guarantee what the partner will become in the future, and there must always be a backup option.
A woman who was almost as tall as Lu Dong and physically as strong as him suddenly came to him.
"How does it feel to be surrounded by stars?" Du Juan said with a smile on his square face, "Did you enjoy it?"
The two sides are very familiar with each other, so Lu Dong didn't need to hide it, and said, "Du Juan, don't make fun of me, I'm the only one who is so famous? People only value the little money that my company brings in."
Du Juan said: "Actually, that's what I like."
Lu Dong couldn't help laughing: "You are a straightforward person."
Du Juan also smiled: "I went to see your new store. The location is very good. Shall we continue to cooperate?"
"Of course." Someone walked by, and Lu Dong lowered his voice slightly: "Sister Du, the company will definitely purchase kitchen utensils, monitoring systems and cashier ordering systems first from your communication electronics."
He changed his voice: "Electrical equipment is constantly dropping in price, sister Du, you have to go to the market as you go."
Du Juan answered straight away: "No problem, let's talk about the details."
The banquet started, and someone came to invite people to sit down. Lu Dong sat at the first table, and next to him was Qin Linwei, the general manager of the Qingzhao Branch of Langchao Group.
Speaking of which, the two sides are neighbors in Innovation Port. Lu Dong knew Qin Linwei before, after all, he accompanied Yang Liewen to Building No. 1 of Innovation Port where Langchao branch is located.
Qin Linwei is less than 40 years old. It is not easy to become a senior member of a large state-owned enterprise at this age.
"Mr. Lu is young and promising." Qin Linwei could not see the arrogance of the executives of a large state-owned enterprise, but the first thing he thought of was to attract customers: "Your company is developing rapidly, and the internal collaborative office is now advocating computerization. I don't know Mr. Lu. No consideration in this regard?"
Lu Dong said solemnly: "Currently there are more than a dozen people working, and they won't be used for the time being." But he is very clear that computer office is not only a trend, but also can improve efficiency and save manpower and material resources: "It will definitely be needed in the future."
Qin Linwei immediately smiled and said: "It is said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Our two families are neighbors. Mr. Lu can come to me whenever he needs it."
Although Langchao Group is still working on hardware, it has already transformed into software. Lu Dong has been to the No. 1 office building of Langchao branch, and he is very aware of this, so he immediately responded: "No problem, I will need to trouble Mr. Qin when the time comes. "
It has to be said that with the expansion of the scale of Lu's catering and the increase in revenue, even companies like Langchao Group have begun to pay attention.
After this luncheon, Lu Dong received business cards from the first batch of 37 member units of the University City Chamber of Commerce, and talked to the other 36 bosses.
If Lu's Catering Company has related needs in the back, there is no need to bother to find them, and a targeted investigation can be carried out as soon as possible.
For example, during a conversation with the person in charge of a noodle products company, there was a preliminary cooperation intention on hamburger embryos. After the meeting, Lu Dong would ask Lao Ma to go over and discuss cooperation.
After a luncheon, toast others, and others came to toast, coupled with the social environment of the age, alcohol testing is normal, Lu Dong inevitably drank a little too much.
When returning back, sitting in the co-pilot, Lu Dong's upper and lower eyelids were fighting.
Lu Jianren drove the car and said, "Hey, don't call me when you drink."
Lu Dong slightly opened his eyes: "Uncle Seven, we have agreed not to drink while driving."
Lu Jianren muttered, "Don't drink and drive."
But Seventh Uncle is not what he used to be, knowing that Lu Dong is doing great things, as an uncle himself, it’s okay if he can’t help, but he can’t hold back his nephew, and asked, “Where are you going?”
"Go to the company first." Lu Dong resisted the desire to sleep: "There is still business to do when we go back."
Lu Jianren didn't say any more, and drove directly north along Wenhua Road, and after three major intersections, he arrived at the Innovation Port of Provincial University.
Lu Dong went upstairs from the underground parking lot, and Lu Jianren went to the warehouse to find Su Xiaoshan.
On the warehouse side, Su Xiaoshan is supervising the unloading.
"Uncle Seven." Su Xiaoshan asked, "Have you eaten?"
There is a special table for drivers to eat at the exhibition center. Lu Jianren took out a cigarette and prepared to light it: "Eat."
Seeing the smoke, Su Xiaoshan hurriedly said, "My seventh uncle, this is a warehouse, and fireworks are prohibited."
Lu Jianren almost pressed down on the lighter, and finally stopped, put the lighter in his pocket, and put the cigarettes back into the cigarette case.
He doesn't need to guess, he knows that this kind of fucking rule must be made by Lu Dong.
Seeing Uncle Qi put away his cigarette, Su Xiaoshan heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "After unloading, we two will go up and smoke one."
Lu Jianren said, "That's fine." He asked, "No delivery today?"
Su Xiaoshan replied: "I went to the county town in the morning and went to Quannan, and all the goods have been delivered."
Lu Jianren was not upright, he was not upright, his personal affairs were clearly separated from outsiders, and he asked with concern: "How is the business in Quannan?"
"Very good." Su Xiaoshan touched his bald head and said, "The three stores have a daily turnover of at least 70,000 to 80,000."
Lu Jianren nodded. There was one thing that surprised him. It seemed that since Dongzi stopped doing serious things last year, life has become better and better for both him and the Lu family village.
It's not in vain to blind him to the serious skills he taught Dongzi.
On the eighth floor, Lu Dong called Xue Tian into the office, handed her all the business cards received today, and asked Xue Tian to create a contact book for possible future needs.
When Xue Tian went out, she asked her to call Lao Ma in again. Lu Dong told Lao Ma about the Rongtian Pasta Processing Factory in detail, and asked Lao Ma to go to the field for inspection tomorrow. needs, let’s talk about cooperation.
Lu Dong has extremely high requirements on hygienic quality, and he will not use related products that do not meet the standards, no matter how low the price is or how high the profit is.
Xue Tian made a cup of tea and brought it in for Lu Dong.
When she went out, Lu Dong drank half a cup of tea. He drank too much wine at noon, and his upper and lower eyelids fought fiercely, so he just collapsed on the couch and lay down for a while.
The head is resting on the armrest of the hard wooden sofa, which is much less comfortable than Song Na's elastic long legs.
Today, there were no long legs as pillows, and no human-shaped pillows to lean on, but with the help of alcohol, Lu Dong became dazed after a while.
I felt like I was about to fall asleep when someone knocked on the office door, and then Lao Du's voice came in: "Lu Dong? Did I go in?"
Lu Dong got up from the couch and said, "Just come in."
Du Xiaobing was wearing Nikes, pushed the door in, closed the door, and said, "I saw you on TV this morning."
Lu Dong smiled: "How are you, handsome or not?"
Du Xiaobing deliberately joked: "Several female sports students in the college have fallen in love with you. Do you want to go for a date? Let me tell you, most people can't stand it. Some practice weightlifting, some practice shot put, and some practice discus... ..."
"Don't!" Lu Dong hurriedly said: "You should keep it to yourself, I have a master now, and you still don't know who will get it."
Du Xiaobing suddenly stopped joking and became serious: "Lu Dong, let me tell you something, Ning Xue called me yesterday..."
As soon as he heard the name Ning Xue, Lu Dong looked at Du Xiaobing.
"Ning Xue told me." Du Xiaobing was obviously a little confused: "She is having a bad time now."
Lu Dong secretly sighed, and said to Du Xiaobing: "Old Du, a good horse never turns back."
It’s not that Du Xiaobing doesn’t understand this truth. At the gate of the Art Academy, Ning Xuefei’s scene of him being recognized as his elder brother is vivid in his mind. Perhaps he didn’t realize it at the time. Half a year has passed, and he has been deeply involved in the company’s business operations during this time. , with the experience of constantly dealing with people of all colors, it is natural to see that Ning Xue's purpose is impure.
But first love is the most precious and unforgettable.
Even for an open-minded person like Lao Du, when he received a call from Ning Xue, his thoughts were still in a mess.
Seeing that Lao Du had finally pulled it out, Lu Dong didn't want to see him sink in again, and reminded: "Old Du, do you still remember what we said when Ning Xue graduated and left when we were drinking on the roof? She hung up Seeing that your purpose is not pure, what do you think she is looking for you now? When she threw your sacrifices on the ground, when she followed others, did she look at you more?"
Du Xiaobing sat on the sofa, silent and did not speak.
Lu Dong said: "Old Du, you haven't seen it clearly today? Ning Xue just treats you as a spare tire, as a purse and big gift package."
Old Du is not the Du Xiaobing he was when he was in school. He was deeply involved in it before and couldn't see it clearly, but now he can't understand it.
"Forget it, let's not talk about her." Du Xiaobing seemed to have made up his mind: "Lu Dong, from now on, I will pretend that Ning Xue doesn't exist."
Lu Dong encouraged him: "Old Du, this is a real man."
Du Xiaobing gave a long sigh: "Lu Dong, sometimes I envy you."
Lu Dong casually asked, "Why do you envy me? Which one of your qualifications is not better than mine?"
Du Xiaobing deliberately said: "Why did Song Na choose you?"
Lu Dong laughed: "This is called turnips and vegetables, each has his own love."
