Li Pei then asked, "Then who do you think they're here for?"
Li Yi wanted to answer that it was her uncle, Uncle Yang, or her aunt, but when she saw the expressions on Li Pei and Li Lan's faces, she couldn't help but overthink.
When these people came to the Li family, they were at most warm or indifferent to her uncle and Uncle Yang, and some were even arrogant. As for her aunt and aunt, they were not interested in talking at all and didn't even know who they were.
The strange thing was that when these people saw her old man, they would bend their waists when they shook hands. She had never seen anyone taller than her old man when they stood next to him.
What did this mean?
She patted her head and muttered to herself, "It can't be?"
Li Pei smiled and asked, "Are you surprised? Are you surprised? Why are you such a muddle-headed person? "
"I …" Li Yi was speechless for a moment, but in the end, she still argued, "You guys are lying!"
Li Pei curled his lips and said, "Do you know who wrote your university recommendation letter? One was Chambers and the other was Bill Gates. What do you think?"
Both of them were world-class tycoons, completely incomparable to a tycoon like her father. The only thing better than them was that her father had a good brother.
Li Yi finally lowered her head in shame. She was too ignorant. If her father wasn't capable, how could he have gotten someone to write a recommendation letter for her?
She still remembered how casual and confident her father was back then, as if he was never afraid of being rejected.
She was especially touched that her father had actually begged someone for her. A father's love was indeed as strong as a mountain.
However, when she heard her father say, "If anyone dares to not give me face, don't blame me for being stingy. If they don't even know how to support others, how can they still do business?"
After hearing that, the touch disappeared without a trace. No matter what, her father couldn't change his habit of bragging.
Li Ke said, "Don't you feel excited at all?"
Li Yi suddenly came to a realization. "My dad gave me a card …"
Before she could finish, her brother, Li Lan, was already waving a golden bank card in front of her.
Li Yi wanted to cry, but no tears came out. "I don't know where I threw it!"
Li Ke smiled and said, "Just go and get another one."
In the evening, Li He requested Li Lan, Li Pei, and Yang Huai to attend the banquet.
Unable to refuse, they arrived at the county ahead of time. Each of them held a computer in their hands and memorized the PowerPoint document that Wang Ziwen had sent them. It was filled with the resumes and photos of the guests.
The 500-page powerpoint involved more than 200 people. The scale of each guest's business, history, and family relationship were all very detailed.
There were even notes on how to address him. Some could only call him brother, some had to call him grandfather, and some had to call him uncle.
Wang Ziwen also specially reminded her that she had to remember that this was related to her family's upbringing.
He didn't need to explain the consequences of losing face for Li Lao Er.
After reading more than a hundred pages, Yang Huai became impatient and said to Wang Ziwen, "Uncle Wang, when the time comes, won't First Uncle introduce us? We can just call him whatever he says. There's no need to go through so much trouble. "
Li Pei and Li Lan looked at him as if he was an idiot.
Yang Huai instantly understood. He had been so focused on complaining earlier that he didn't think much about what kind of person his uncle was. His uncle might know most of the people, and the rest he didn't know might not be his uncle's intention.
It was unrealistic to expect his uncle to memorize the guest list.
They had to rely on themselves.
Wang Ziwen smiled and said, "Qi Hua and I know everyone, but when the time comes, Mr. Li will be leading you. Although we'll be in front of you, we can't help you because it's not appropriate for us to interrupt.
It'll be fine if Mr. Li knows them, but if he doesn't know them and you don't know them, it might be a little troublesome. "
Li Lan said helplessly, "I don't know how long we'll have to memorize it. How about this, we split it into three parts, and each of us will memorize one part. When we meet people, as long as one of us knows them, it'll be fine."
It could be regarded as the correct way to open the door steadily with the skin in it.
Li Pei said, "We'll split it into three parts. Who will memorize the first part?"
The three of them had already sorted out the first part. Now, whoever chose the first part would be at an advantage.
When it came to slacking off, none of the three brothers were willing to be modest.
Yang Huai said, "That's even simpler. The first part doesn't count, and the remaining parts will be divided into three parts."
The three of them looked at each other and came to an agreement.
Wang Ziwen did not comment. He had no way to object.
He also understood that time was too short. It was unrealistic for each of them to memorize so much on their own.
If they made a mess on the spot and made things awkward, he had a reason. In the end, he would be the one to take the blame.
He did not complete the task that the boss gave him. What right did he have to defend himself?
Besides, one was the boss' biological son, the other was his biological nephew, and the other was his biological nephew. What could the boss do?
Then, after suffering and tiring himself out, he would be the unlucky one in the end.
After working with the boss for so many years, how could he not know the boss's character?
Everyone was solemn and serious at the dinner party.
Because this was the memorial service for Li Zhaokun, the banquet was incidental. If it was warm and jubilant, it would obviously not express their grief at all.
They could not be too excited just because they saw Li He. Getting too excited would be a tragedy.
That night, Li Lan and the other two followed behind Li He and Li Long to express their gratitude to the guests who attended Li Zhaokun's funeral. At the same time, they bonded and exchanged ideas on economic development.
Li Lan, Li Pei, and the others behaved appropriately. There were no hiccups along the way.
In short, it was a perfect memorial service.
After it was over, Li Lan sighed. "Everyone is an actor in life. There's nothing wrong with that."
Li Pei said, "What are you mumbling about? We've been living under our parents' wings. We've lived a bright life without any setbacks. How could we understand the bitterness of others who started from scratch?"
Yang Huai smiled. "Alright, I remember what my dad said. If you don't have the ability to make others respect you should at least have the ability to talk to people.
We haven't met anyone unreasonable. If we did, we still have to bow our heads. Even if we hate him, we still have to respect him. "
Li Lan cupped his hands. "The two of you speak as if it's true. I've learned a lot."
He knew these two's temperament. They were not people who could be wronged.
Li Pei smiled. "I'm serious. Self-respect is precious, but life is more valuable. As a human, we have to learn how to manage our relationships. Actually, our father's generation worked so hard to help us get rid of these shackles and live more freely. "
