Li Dong was having a good time, but Du Juan was not so confident.
When she learned that Li Dong invited her to meet at the Chang 'an Club, Du Juan was surprised. "What does he mean?"
Du Juan's contact with Far away was still a secret.
But the Chang 'an Club, as one of the top clubs in Capital, was mostly made up of businessmen.
Once they met there, all secrets would no longer be secrets.
Du Juan was indeed a little surprised to know the meeting place.
Her secretary and Director Zhou did not understand. Of course, this was Li Dong's decision. Unless they missed the appointment, they had to go.
…
Du Juan did not understand.
Qi Yunna did not understand either.
On the way to the club, Qi Yunna and Li Dong were in the same car.
After a while, Qi Yunna whispered, "General Manager Li, there are too many people there …"
Li Dong leaned back in his chair and smiled. "So what?
Don't make things too complicated!
Do you think this is a secret or something to hide?
I'm going there to discuss business, not to be a thief. Whether it succeeds or not, it's the same thing. Why do I have to be so secretive?
Besides, who do you think you can hide this from?
Since that's the case, let's be open and aboveboard, lest we lose face for no reason. Besides, the club's environment is better. At least we can talk about extravagance. "
Qi Yunna laughed and did not ask again.
…
Chang 'an Club.
One of the top clubs in Capital.
There were not too many customers in the morning, but many members liked to play all night. Lunch time was coming, so there were not too few people.
In the hall, there were many people sitting.
When they saw the club manager, Lu Wanying, come down three times in a row, an old member could not help but laugh. "Little Lu, why are you in such a hurry? President Chen or President Zhao? We don't usually see you so attentive. "
Lu Wanying quickly smiled. "President Bai, what are you talking about? It's as if I'm biased. It's not President Chen or President Zhao. It's Mr. Li who called to ask us to arrange a private room for him. Mr. Li doesn't come often, and I'm afraid others might neglect him. "
President Chen was referring to the club's founder.
President Zhao was Chen Li Hua's son and the current big boss of the club. Chen Li Hua was currently playing with her red sandalwood and didn't come here often.
Upon hearing Mr. Li Dong, the first person that came to everyone's mind was not Li Dong, but Old Li from Hong Kong.
After all, Li Dong rarely came here. He had only been here once, and he had forced the Sun Family to lower their heads.
On the other hand, the man from Hong Kong was a member of the club's board of directors. When he came to the capital, he would usually come to visit him.
Many people present had dealt with that man from Hong Kong.
Hearing Lu Wanying mention Mr. Li, the guest who spoke before quickly said, "Mr. Li came from Xiangjiang? Why haven't I heard anything about it … "
Seeing that he misunderstood, Lu Wanying quickly explained, "It's not Mr. Li from Changjiang. It's General Manager Li from Far away."
"Li Dong!"
"He came?"
"Who are you messing with now?"
"…"
Compared to before, everyone's reaction this time was even greater.
Previously, when they talked about that person, everyone was thinking about how to talk to him later and how to ask him a few questions.
30% respect and 70% fawning.
But when they knew that it was Li Dong, their mood suddenly changed.
30% respect, 30% fear, 30% fawning …
There was even a little hatred in their eyes.
At least, when a few people in the crowd heard the name Li Dong, their faces changed, and then a touch of annoyance appeared on their faces.
That evil man came again!
Every time he came to the capital, nothing good happened.
A person's reputation was like a tree's shadow.
Li Dong was different from the older generation of business tycoons. He was more ostentatious, overbearing, and narrow-minded.
In the past, people in the capital were not so afraid of him.
Li Dong could only be arrogant in Jiangbei.
But since the last incident, people in the capital were really a little more afraid.
When Han Yu and her group dealt with Li Dong, many people knew that. At that time, everyone thought that this guy was going to suffer a big loss.
Who knew, the result was unexpected.
Han Yu went abroad, Chen Rui was in prison, and his father committed suicide. They were not nameless people.
People like Lu Mingfeng and Zhuang Fan had suffered a big loss in the hands of Li Dong.
Moreover, the capital was still at war. Lu Mingfeng and the others were now in deep trouble. Even the pillars of their families were not spared.
And the cause of all this was Li Dong!
But this guy acted as if nothing had happened. He was living a leisurely life in Jiangbei, as if everything had nothing to do with him. That attitude made people in the know helpless.
Li Dong, the sh * t stirrer, really stirred up a storm.
Because of him, there were a lot of things happening in the business world.
It was the same in the political world. And it was all because of him!
Moreover, this guy's favorite hobby was to bully the second and third generations. There were a few second and third generations in the crowd, although they were not directly bullied.
However, when Han Yu raised funds last time, many people had invested money.
The unlucky ones lost everything.
Those who were slightly better managed to get back some of their capital. But when they returned home, they were scolded by their families. Some hot-tempered elders even beat them up.
It was not easy to wait for the recent limelight to die down a little, and everyone came out to have some fun.
But who knew that this guy would come again!
The few young people looked at each other, then without saying a word, stood up and walked out of the door.
Fine, we can't afford to offend that lunatic, so let's not meet him.
I heard that he has been free recently, so let's not meet him. If he keeps thinking of us and wants to cause trouble, who can we reason with?
Lu Wanying was taken aback when she saw that they were leaving.
Then, she suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. It was very complicated.
These people were also domineering people.
Or rather, these people in the club were all domineering people.
There had never been a situation like this where they stood up and wanted to leave just because they heard someone's name.
In the past, even if they met an enemy, for the sake of their pride, they would put up with it and talk after the competition.
But now, they didn't even want to meet him.
Was this domineering, or was he so evil that he had no friends?
Lu Wanying did not know whether to laugh or cry, but she also felt an indescribable sense of joy and admiration.
Really, it was too rare!
Being a person like Li Dong, regardless of whether he was notorious or not, at least he was worthy of his identity and status.
Before they arrived, the enemy ran away after hearing their names. This was more satisfying than the behavior of the older generation of entrepreneurs.
Although that was what she thought, Lu Wanying did not dare to delay and hurriedly sent them out.
In the hall, there were some discussions in twos and threes.
"What is Li Dong doing here? Who offended him recently? "
"I didn't hear about it. Hasn't he been staying in the South recently? I know that he came yesterday for the entrepreneurs' annual meeting. He even had a gathering with General Manager Liu and his group last night. I don't think anyone offended him, right? "
"Are we leaving? That guy is unscrupulous and will do anything he doesn't like. Don't let him offend you. "
"Old Wang, you're too timid!"
"…"
There was a burst of discussion. Lu Wanying smiled bitterly. I'm really talkative!
She said that Li Dong would come, in fact, to show the strength of the club.
Now, not only a group of guests were scared away, but others were also discussing whether to leave. This rich man was really different.
Being a person like this, was it a failure or a success?
At this time, even Lu Wanying, who was experienced and knowledgeable, could not judge.
Just when Lu Wanying was in a daze, an employee of the club hurried over and said, "Manager, General Manager Li's car is downstairs!"
As soon as Lu Wanying heard this, she immediately stepped out.
It was okay for others to neglect a little, but the Chang 'an Club had this qualification and confidence.
Moreover, ordinary big shots would not care too much about these things.
But she was really not familiar with Li Dong.
She had only met him once, when he forced Sun Manman to apologize, and he was extremely strong.
Now that everyone was so afraid of him, Lu Wanying was also a little vague, for fear that she would not treat him well and provoke a big enemy for the club.
Others might not be like this, but it was really hard to say for Li Dong.
This guy, from everyone's reaction, was obviously not a good person, and Lu Wanying did not want to offend such a big shot.
…
At this moment, Li Dong still did not know that his notoriety had become so great.
Liu Chuanzhi and others had talked to him several times, but Li Dong had always thought that they were joking.
Really, really thought that they were joking.
Li Dong felt that he was still relatively kind, and he did not do anything bad.
How could he know that they were really not joking?
Li Dong's notoriety was not only spread by one or two people.
It was spread by the second generation who had suffered losses, some businessmen who had been banned last time, and he himself was too high-profile a few days ago, and people who were jealous of him were also spreading it.
Not to mention that he did not have a good temper, even if he did, he was not a good person.
Hence, when his car stopped at the entrance of the club and he saw a few luxury cars leaving one after another, Li Dong could not help but say, "Business here is quite good, there are people coming and going in the morning."
Qi Yunna and the others did not know, so of course they would not know the inside story.
Hearing this, they nodded in agreement. Under normal circumstances, everyone was active in the afternoon and evening.
In the morning, there were people coming and going, and the club's business was indeed good.
How could they know that those people just now had hurried away because Li Dong had come?
Li Dong could not be bothered with this, and he led Qi Yunna and the others to the building.
As soon as they reached the club's entrance, Lu Wanying came over with a smile and said, "General Manager Li, CEO Qi, I say, magpie …"
Li Dong did not wait for her to finish, and laughed and teased, "It's winter, don't call me magpie. I'm almost synonymous with magpie now."
Lu Wanying immediately laughed. She had been a little nervous before, but now she suddenly relaxed a lot.
Li Dong did not seem to be as scary as everyone said.
Seeing that Li Dong was still easy to talk to, Lu Wanying said, "General Manager Li, the private room has been prepared for you. Do you want to go over now, or do you want to go somewhere else first?"
"Let's go now, the guests will be here soon."
Lu Wanying hurriedly nodded and did not try to persuade him. She led Li Dong inside.
The lobby was as glorious as ever.
There were not many people in the lobby. When Li Dong entered the door, many people stood up and greeted, "General Manager Li!"
Those who stood up felt that there was a big gap between them and Li Dong, so they were relatively polite.
Those who did not stand up generally nodded in acknowledgment, with a smile on their faces. There was no gossip or slander just now.
Li Dong did not care. He nodded to those who were familiar, and for those who were unfamiliar, he smiled and walked away.
When he brought his people upstairs with Lu Wanying, someone discussed, "Is he here to have fun or to meet a guest?"
"Anyway, it's fine as long as he is not looking for trouble. He doesn't look like he is looking for trouble," someone said with a smile.
"That's true, but he doesn't come here often. It's a little surprising that he suddenly came here."
"…"
While the crowd was discussing, someone in front suddenly greeted, "Mr. Du!"
"Mr. Du, I haven't seen you for a while. You've lost a lot of weight recently. You should pay attention to your rest."
"Yes, no matter how difficult it is, there will be a time to overcome it. Mr. Du, the most important thing is to take care of yourself."
Among the crowd, there were familiar people who could not help but comfort her.
Although Du Juan was relatively low-key, the headquarters of Gome was in Capital City. No matter how low-key she was, she could not be.
However, in the past, she had accompanied Old Huang to all kinds of activities.
Now that Old Huang had gone in, she had to stand up and carry the current burden.
Recently, Du Juan had lost a lot of weight, and her face was a little yellow, but she was a little more capable than before.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the acquaintances, Du Juan went upstairs with the staff.
After she left, someone suddenly said, "Li Dong came here just now, and so did Du Juan. Don't tell me they are meeting up?"
"Far away to meet with Gome?"
"Is Li Dong going to make a big move again? Not long ago, he cooperated with China Resources and Gome … "
The person stopped talking. Now that three of the giants in the retail industry had joined forces, it would be too scary.
If the three giants really joined forces, their combined strength would not be weaker than any domestic enterprise.
They were all giants with hundreds of billions of yuan. In the current situation where there were only a few trillions of yuan, the giants in the retail industry were still quite influential.
Not to mention others, these two giants were once the richest people in the country.
Now that Old Huang had gone in, and Li Dong and Du Juan had met, there was something worth pondering about.
The people in the hall started discussing again.
…
Li Dong could not care less about other people's discussions.
Under Lu Wanying's lead, Li Dong and the others soon arrived at the private room.
The club had everything.
Restaurants, bars, conference rooms, KTV, sports centers … everything.
However, there were not many people who came here just to eat.
Li Dong chose to eat here because it was fresh. Otherwise, the Beijing Restaurant across the street would be more suitable.
After entering the private room, Du Juan and the others arrived not long after Li Dong sat down.
As soon as they entered the door, Du Juan smiled. "General Manager Li, President Qi, sorry to keep you waiting …"
Du Juan said a few pleasantries, and Li Dong got up and smiled. "I just arrived. President Du, please don't be so polite. Please take a seat."
After asking them to sit down, Li Dong could not help but look at Du Juan for a while.
He had not met Du Juan before, but he had seen her photos. Du Juan used to have long hair, but now she had short hair. Although she had lost a lot of weight, she was in good spirits.
However, compared to the photos, she had also aged a lot.
A woman who was not even forty years old looked older than a woman who was over forty. Obviously, these days were not very good.
While Li Dong was looking at her, Du Juan was also observing Li Dong.
Young. That was Du Juan's first impression.
Very young!
Du Juan could not help but sigh. Compared to the photos and videos, only seeing Li Dong could make her think that she was really old.
