The Weibo financing cocktail party was supposed to be an internal cocktail party hosted by Faraway Group itself.
Even the Faraway Group's name was not used. Weibo's name was used.
Last time, the East Star Charity Night was open to all of Hua Xia. Almost half of Hua Xia's business giants came.
According to the level and scale of the two, they were relatively not on the same level.
But this time, the atmosphere and influence of the Weibo financing cocktail party were no worse than the last time.
The reason was actually simple. The last time they attended the party, they came to pay.
This time was different. This time, a large number of international investors came. Their purpose was to get others to pay.
Because of this, the Weibo financing cocktail party had little impact on large groups, but it was extremely attractive to some small and medium-sized enterprises.
Large groups had their own connections, investors, and investors who took the initiative to find them.
But for small enterprises, if they wanted to get investment, they had to find people themselves and visit everywhere. Sometimes, they could not even enter the door.
Far away, this time, the investors were all first-tier financial institutions. Most of the time, they could not even enter the third or fourth-tier investment institutions.
The difficulty of financing for small and medium-sized enterprises was far greater than that for large enterprises.
The money of capital institutions did not come for nothing. They would not invest in everyone, nor would they look at every proposal.
The number of proposals and proposals that these organizations received every year could fill up several warehouses.
Generally, there would not be too many people in an investment organization. Who would have the time to look through the proposals one by one? If the proposals of some unknown people did not stand out, the proposal could be thrown aside to gather dust in the blink of an eye.
Now, Far away's financing cocktail party gave everyone this opportunity, this hope.
At the cocktail party, they could get to know a few big investors and directly communicate with them face-to-face. This was much more powerful than a lifeless proposal.
Maybe the investors would be in a good mood and agree to invest on the spot.
For small enterprises, a few million US dollars in financing was a great achievement.
And this time, the investors were real tycoons. A few million US dollars was nothing. Far away's financing was calculated by hundreds of millions of US dollars.
…
Because of this reason, the Weibo financing cocktail party attracted the attention of a large number of small and medium-sized entrepreneurs.
But these small and medium-sized enterprises or start-up enterprises generally found it difficult to get an invitation from Far away.
Therefore, the most people gathered outside the hotel at this moment were not media reporters.
They were not invited guests or idlers watching the fun.
The ones who gathered the most were the bosses and founders of small and medium-sized enterprises. These people were looking for opportunities to sneak into the cocktail party.
Even if they could not, the people in charge of those investment institutions would definitely leave.
It was not easy to find a chance to "run into" them when they came, but after the cocktail party, it was not impossible to "run into" them at the entrance or in the parking lot.
Opportunities were created by themselves. Many people's rise was full of coincidences and coincidences.
Or, better yet, see if he could get a few invitations to the banquet and enter openly. That way, his chances would be even greater.
So when Li Dong's car stopped in front of the hotel, the hotel, and many people to enter.
Some of the more daring ones wanted to go up and chat with Li Dong. Maybe they could make Li Dong look at them in a different light.
When they saw the security guards around Li Dong and the hotel's security guards, the bold people started to feel afraid.
But when they saw the security members around Li Dong, as well as the hotel's security guards, even the bold ones felt timid.
Not everyone had the guts to talk to the richest man directly, especially under such an occasion.
Companies that could not even get an invitation to the cocktail party and could not even get in through the back door had to have connections.
A company that couldn't even get an invitation to a cocktail party and couldn't even get in through the back door showed how capable and powerful they were.
On the side of the financing reception, the issuance of invitation letters was actually not too strict.
If they were really capable, they would not be standing here waiting.
The crowd was in a commotion, but no one dared to move.
The crowd was in a commotion, but no one dared to move.
Especially when they saw the bodyguards in black. The atmosphere was tense, and the crowd was even more timid.
Li Dong naturally did not care too much about this.
He walked into the hotel without looking to either side.
…
Just as Li Dong was walking on the red carpet.
In the crowd, there were two girls who kept cheering themselves on.
"Jiajia, go!"
"Tingting, you go. I … I'm scared." Qian Jiajia was about to cry.
Previously, she had made up her mind to have a chance encounter with Li Dong at the entrance. However, who would have thought that Li Dong would be surrounded by a large group of bodyguards instead of a few people.
She thought it would be the same as on TV, and Li Dong would only have a few employees around him.
Now, she realized that TV was a scam. They did not even film the bodyguards.
The ponytailed Feng Tingting was exasperated and said, "What should I say? I don't even know him. Will he give me face? Do you know him? Who else can go if you don't? "
"I … I don't know him either!"
Qian Jiajia cried again. If I knew him, I wouldn't be so scared.
Feng Tingting was dumbfounded. She hurriedly said, "Didn't you say that you're related to him?"
"That's my mom. When did I say I …" Qian Jiajia tried to defend herself, but she did not sound confident.
Although she did not admit it, she did not deny it either.
Previously, she had only thought about it in her head and felt that it would not be a big problem to say a few words to Li Dong, so she did not argue. Little girls also wanted to save face.
But now, Qian Jiajia knew it was not enough to just think about it. Her heart was about to jump out, and her legs were weak. She did not dare to talk to him.
Feng Tingting was stunned. Then she said angrily, "I knew it. Why didn't you just ask him for the invitation? I believed you! You stupid girl. I should have thought of a way in advance. What should we do now? We finally have a chance. If no one invests in us, we can just disband. We won't even be able to get in the door if we go there ourselves. You … "
Feng Tingting stomped her feet hard. Seeing that Li Dong was about to reach the door, she couldn't care less about strangling the girl to death. She hurriedly dragged her forward.
…
"Who are you?!"
The bodyguard's shout made Li Dong, who was talking to Yuan Chengdao, turn his eyes.
When he saw two young girls barging into his isolation circle, Li Dong smiled and did not say anything.
The bodyguard saw that the two girls were young and immature, so he did not touch them.
Otherwise, if they barged in like this, they would be treated as dangerous people.
At most, he would just apologize. It wasn't a big deal.
Even if this matter was reported to the police, Li Dong was not in the wrong. A rich man like him naturally valued his own safety.
After being scolded by the bodyguard, Qian Jiajia's legs turned soft, and her mind went blank.
Although Feng Tingting was a little timid, she still shouted. "We are General Manager Li's friends. General Manager Li, can I have a word with you?"
Li Dong, who was about to leave, turned around when he heard that. He smiled and asked, "Are you my friends?"
Feng Tingting was a little embarrassed and pushed Qian Jiajia.
Qian Jiajia finally recovered a little. When she heard Li Dong's words, she blushed and stammered, "Li … Mr. Li, I … I …"
She was so nervous that she could not speak for a long time.
The more she could not speak, the more nervous she became. In the end, she was sweating profusely.
In addition, there were people watching nearby. Qian Jiajia wanted to bury herself in a hole.
Qian Jiajia held back her shyness and tears. She gritted her teeth and gasped. "My … my mother is Zhang Yunying. I … we want …"
He wanted an invitation letter, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.
Zhang Yunying was not a big shot. If she was, she would not have sent her daughter to ask for an invitation.
However, Li Dong was stunned. He waved at the bodyguard and smiled. "You … you are Aunty Zhang's daughter. Your name is … Jiajia, right?"
Fortunately, Li Dong had a good memory. He still remembered the name of his nanny.
Qian Jiajia was the daughter of Li Dong's nanny. Li Dong had heard Aunty Zhang mention her several times.
What impressed Li Dong the most was that during the heavy snow at the end of last year, the nanny's daughter and several classmates took the opportunity to sell anti-skid chains and made a lot of money.
The nanny told Li Dong about it. She was praising her daughter and thanking Li Dong.
Although Li Dong did not know about it and did not care about a few thousand yuan, Li Dong felt that Aunty Zhang's daughter was very brave and dared to try it because of his casual words.
When the nanny said it, Li Dong's impression was that Aunty Zhang's daughter should be the kind of person who was very assertive and resolute.
But now, looking at it again, Li Dong could not help but laugh.
This girl was on the verge of tears. How could she still be so resolute and decisive? On the other hand, the girl beside her was much calmer.
When Qian Jiajia heard that Li Dong knew her, she was very excited and nodded quickly. "En, Mr. Li, I am, I am …"
Seeing that she was incoherent and there were people watching, Feng Tingting quickly said, "General Manager Li, can we go in with you to see?"
Qian Jiajia wanted an invitation, but Feng Tingting was speechless. She had met Li Dong. Why did she need an invitation?
Going in with Li Dong was better than any invitation.
She did not expect that Qian Jiajia really knew Li Dong …
No, she did not know him, but she knew Qian Jiajia. That was enough.
And seeing that Li Dong seemed to be quite easy to talk to, Feng Tingting could not help but feel a lot more relaxed.
Li Dong could roughly guess what they were thinking and what their purpose was from their appearance.
Hearing this, he did not care too much about it. He smiled and said, "Okay, then come with me."
Yuan Chengdao and the others looked at them a little longer, but did not say anything.
They were about to enter when they suddenly heard someone behind them smiling. "General Manager Li, I finally realized that most of your friends are young girls. Hahaha, young people are really charming."
These words didn't sound like much.
But if they listened carefully, they could feel that it was full of hostility.
The corner of Li Dong's mouth twitched. He said to Yuan Chengdao and the others, "You go in first. I'll have a few words with Boss Hu."
Then, Li Dong said to Qian Jiajia and the others, "You go in with Boss Yuan."
The two girls did not dare to say anything and hurriedly followed Yuan Chengdao and the others in.
After Li Dong was done with his instructions, he turned to Hu Ming and smiled. "Uncle Hu, are you kidding me? Do you think I'm more charming than you?"
Hu Ming put on a fake smile. "I'm old. How can I compare to you young people?"
There were many people outside, so Hu Ming did not say much. He continued smiling. "Shall we go in together?"
Li Dong nodded, and the two of them walked side by side.
When they were out of sight of the media, Hu Ming's smile faded a lot. Li Dong took the initiative to say, "Uncle Hu, you're quite early. I thought you would be late."
"I can't be late. If I'm late, Xiaorui will be here. I came early because I wanted to chat with you. See, I happened to see a good show. These two girls are not bad. Are they friends? "
Li Dong glanced at Old Hu. This sly old fox did not come with good intentions today.
Usually, Old Hu would not even bother to look at such a small matter, nor would he repeat it to Li Dong a second time.
But today, the sly old fox refused to let go. It was quite amusing.
Yes, it was quite amusing. The sly old fox had lost all his cunning and was only angry out of humiliation. It was rare to see Hu Ming in this state.
Hu Ming seemed to have noticed this. He coughed and said embarrassedly, "I'm just curious. I've never heard of Zhang Yunying before. Is she from Jiangbei's business world?"
"No. She's an acquaintance." Li Dong gave a perfunctory reply and did not mention that she was his nanny.
The young man's ego was a little strong, although in Li Dong's opinion, being his nanny did not seem to be treating anyone badly.
But to some people, being a nanny was a sign of low status.
Aunty Zhang's daughter did not bring up this topic, so Li Dong did not want to talk about it.
Since Li Dong had said so, Hu Ming did not ask further. He was just trying to find fault with Li Dong.
It was obvious that those two girls had nothing to do with Li Dong. Even if they did, it was Li Dong's private matter. It was none of Hu Ming's business.
If it wasn't for his daughter, Hu Ming wouldn't have bothered to say anything. Even if Li Dong found a hundred or eighty women, as long as he could handle it, Hu Ming wouldn't have any objections.
Old Hu did not continue this topic and changed the topic. "Is Ms. Shen here?"
Li Dong replied calmly. "Are you talking about Ms. Shen from Xihua Investment?"
Old Hu paused for a while and asked. "Why? Is Shen Xuehua coming?"
"Yes. I didn't ask about the details. Maybe someone else from Xihua Investment is coming."
"Oh."
Old Hu frowned. He wanted to ask about Shen Qian and warn Li Dong to stay away from his daughter.
But when he heard that Shen Xuehua was coming, Old Hu had other thoughts.
Old Hu paused for a moment. When they reached the entrance of the banquet hall, he said. "Ms. Shen … I don't like to gossip, but there are some things that she should not meddle in. You and Xiaorui are friends. If it were someone else, I would not say this. Try to be clear about it. Our family is different. Xiaorui is our only daughter. We don't lack money. No matter how much money we have, it will belong to Xiaorui. The Shen family is a bit complicated … "
Old Hu shook his head and sighed. He did not wait for Li Dong to speak. "Forget it. I'm talking too much. You do what you need to do. I'll look around."
Li Dong waited for him to leave. He did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Shen Xuehua had always said that Sun Yuehua was not a good person and asked him to be careful.
However, Hu Ming also said that Shen Xuehua was not a good person, so he asked Li Dong to be careful.
This was the first time Li Dong had seen Hu Ming, this old fox, lose his composure. He actually started gossiping about others behind their backs.
If Shen Xuehua found out about this, Old Hu would lose a lot of face and wouldn't be able to face anyone.
Li Dong shook his head and sighed. He did not say much.
He had a rough idea of why Old Hu was here.
However, some things would embarrass each other if they were made clear. The two did not talk about this topic.
