Li Du had won the admiration of Sophie's parents, who had accepted him as their son-in-law.
When he returned, Sophie saw that he was in high spirits. She smiled sweetly and raised her hand. "Mr. Li, it seems that you are satisfied."
Li Du said, "Satisfied! I have won the hearts of my beloved girl's parents. They have agreed to marry their precious daughter to me. "
Sophie shrugged and said, "What's so surprising about that? You have a diamond mine. "
Li Du shook his finger and said, "Not because of that, but because of my attitude. I told them that meeting this girl was the luckiest thing in my life. Falling in love with her and winning her favor was the best thing I could do in my life."
Girls always liked to hear sweet words. Li Du's words made Sophie smile. She hugged Li Du and whispered, "Then we can get engaged."
Li Du had to prepare for the engagement. He wanted to hold a party. Hans was an expert in this area. He was the prince of parties.
This was a big deal. Li Du gathered a group of his men. Lu Guan was clever and liked crowds. He was also good at preparing parties.
Big Quinn was calm and meticulous. Li Du asked him to cooperate with the other two, and the three of them worked together to plan the party.
Li Du had to invite guests for the engagement party. He called his friends in the Flagstaff treasure hunting circle and then made invitations.
Cole and a group of Harry Winston executives, Porter, who had returned to Los Angeles, as well as Steve Tussenberg, Tang Chaoyang, Song Biaozi, and others who had helped him a lot.
Of course, he also had to invite the Son of God, Magic Hand, and other treasure hunters who were on good terms with him.
After a quick count, there were still quite a number of people.
The engagement party was scheduled for the second weekend in November, to give everyone time to prepare.
In the meantime, Li Du's diamond mine procedures were completed, and he was ready to start digging.
These procedures were supervised by Cole. He was very concerned about the matter. After all, this was Harry Winston's own diamond mine.
The diamonds produced in the mine would enter the Harry Winston group in the future, and would bear the responsibility of revitalizing the group.
Cole could not directly benefit from the diamonds, but he could indirectly benefit, and he would be the one who would benefit the most indirectly. Therefore, he showed much more enthusiasm for the diamond mine than Li Du.
On Tuesday, Li Du flew across the United States from Phoenix to New York.
Brother Wolf, who was by his side, reported to Li Du about the situation of gathering his comrades. "Jeremy is getting ready to set off. The other five have jobs. They have to quit their jobs and make arrangements for their families, so it will be slower."
Li Du nodded. "No problem, we're not in a hurry."
The people that Brother Wolf had found could form a special warfare assault team. Together with Big Ivan, they could carry out surprise attacks deep into the enemy's rear.
Of course, Li Du did not need them. He only needed these people to protect him.
With these people gathered, Li Du was not afraid of going to Siberia or Africa again. The people led by Brother Wolf were all excellent warriors. He had a full set of US military equipment.
When such warriors were equipped with modern equipment, they were like tigers armed to the teeth. In wild environments like Siberia and Africa, they could best display their super combat power.
The plane landed, and Cole personally came to pick Li Du up.
Li Du and Cole hugged each other and smiled. "I'm flattered, Mr. CEO. You came to pick me up in person."
Cole patted him on the shoulder exaggeratedly and said, "This is what I have to do. I have to protect the company's great hero. Of course, not only that, but you will also become the world's youngest richest man. You have unlimited potential, and I have to maintain a good relationship with you!"
Li Du smiled. "Our relationship has been tested by fire and iron. Of course, it will be very good."
Cole nodded with satisfaction. "That's great. Let's go and rest first, then get ready for the shareholders' meeting."
Another reason why he was so excited was that Cole could take the opportunity to get rid of Carlston Fitz, the second shareholder.
There was no doubt that Cole hated Carlston more than Li Du. Carlston not only hindered him in his work, but also presided over the sale of an abandoned diamond mine to him, which almost caused the demise of Harry Winston Inc.
Li Du taking over Carlston's shares was actually not a good thing for him. In this way, Li Du's shares were not much different from his.
However, as long as Cole had a little more than Li Du, even if it was just 0.1% more, he would have the final say in the shareholders' meeting. Li Du's position was the same as Carlston's, just the second shareholder.
They were both second shareholders. Why didn't Cole choose Li Du, who would never criticize his work, but was very supportive of him?
He called Li Du a blessing and said that since Li Du joined Harry Winston Inc., the company had gradually walked out of the doldrums and moved towards the peak.
In short, Cole was very enthusiastic along the way and was very optimistic about Li Du.
After entering the hotel, Brother Wolf said softly, "He doesn't mean what he said."
Li Du smiled. "Of course, why would he like the second shareholder so much? The second shareholder is someone who will threaten his position. "
He knew that it was not that Cole did not like him, but that he did not like being called the second shareholder.
However, the other party could not do anything about it. Just as Li Du had thought before, in Cole's heart, it was definitely better for him to be the second shareholder than Carlston.
In addition, Li Du was sure that Cole thought that a young man like him would be easier to control. In the future, Cole would definitely want to control him and slowly take away his shares.
Li Du had a good impression of Cole. They had not had any conflicts yet, but there were no eternal friends, only eternal interests. In the future, if there were conflicts of interest, they would inevitably be on opposite sides.
In terms of his attitude towards Cole, his bottom line was the shares. As long as Cole did not want to touch his shares, everything would be fine. If Cole tried to play tricks on the shares, Li Du would fight him to the end.
This was the cruelty of capital. Not long ago, Cole was still working hard to help Li Du clear his name. In the end, the two sides stood together and began to be wary of each other and plot against each other.
As usual, the shareholders' meeting was held in the Harry Winston office. Li Du changed into a new suit and entered the company accompanied by Brother Wolf.
Unlike the last time he saw the shareholders, the attitude of these major shareholders towards him had changed.
When Li Du entered the meeting room, most of them stood up subconsciously and nodded at him, greeting him and showing their goodwill.
They already knew that Li Du had obtained a diamond mine and had also seen Li Du's ability after he was framed and sent to prison.
So, in summary, why would these people continue to treat him coldly like they did the last time?
