Chapter 552 Focus of the Reception
Seeing the elegant Kim Jihyun coming, even Qin Haodong was slightly stunned.
Yagyuu Yukime and Maldini Jr. were expected to help him. But the woman from Koryo was also on her side, which was quite unexpected.
Kim Junxian walked into the crowd and stood beside Yagyuu Yukime and said, “Mr. Qin is my most respected teacher. Whosoever is against him is also against our Kim group.”
At this moment, everyone was shocked. The financial summit was highly standardized. There were major consortiums from around the globe. The top three companies present were the Midas Investment Corporation from M Country, the Yagyuu Group from j.a.pan, and the Kim group from Koryo.
Now the leaders of these three companies were all on Qin Haodong’s side, which was shocking to everyone.
The most shocked were Zheng Hongliang and Sun Qian. They had thought that Qin Haodong had no foundations in Shanghai, and no one would come out to help him. Unexpectedly, he had such strong support in the blink of an eye.
Manager Zhang released a long sigh as if he had unloaded a burden from his heart. Now that he had gathered four people, he didn’t need to drive Qin Haodong out.
At the same time, he hated Zheng Hongliang and Sun Qian in his heart. They were too outrageous to let him drive such a powerful man away. They clearly wanted him dead.
The crowd brought themselves back and began to discuss it.
“Who is this young man? Is he a prince of some country? ”
“I don’t know. If I could get the help from these three companies, I would be dancing in my sleep.”
“No matter who he is, we’ll get to know him later. A person like this will definitely be of help to our consortium…”
Just as people were whispering, Lin Momo went inside.
She went around the reception, intending to communicate with the guests and create some influence for the upcoming Lin’s Jewelry.
But she was very disappointed. All the people who took the initiative to talk to her were only interested in her beauty, and all directly expressed or implied that they wanted to have s.e.x with her. There were even two shameless men who directly proposed to be her sugar daddy. None of them were interested in Lin’s Jewelry.
With deep disappointment, she could only go back to where Qin Haodong was, only to see that it was surrounded by people.
She followed Kim Jihyun to Qin Haodong and asked in surprise, “Haodong, what’s the matter?”
“It’s ok. It’s just a small problem.” Qin Haodong comforted Lin Momo and turned to Yagyuu Yukime and spoke, “Thank you for your help, but I don’t need it. I have an invitation letter!”
Under everyone’s eyes, he took out a golden invitation letter from Lin Momo’s bag and handed it to Manager Zhang.
When he saw the color of the invitation letter, Manager Zhang’s heart twitched.
As the manager of the reception, he certainly understood the meaning of this gold colored invitation letter, which was the symbol of a supreme VIP. Moreover, Ye Qing had specially told him that the guests who held this invitation letter must get the treatment befitting an emperor.
But what did he just do? He not only asked to check the invitation letter of the supreme VIP, but also intended to drive them out. If Ye Qing found out about it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Thinking of this, he started sweating and he froze in fear. For a while, he didn’t know what to do.
Zheng Hongliang interrupted from the side, “The invitation letter to the reception allows entry only to one person. What do you mean by taking one from another person? Can the invitation letter represent two people?”
After he finished speaking, others came back from their shock. According to the rules of the reception, everyone’s invitation letter allowed only one person, and no bodyguard or guest’s friend was allowed in the reception.
“What’s the matter with this young man? He just collected four recommendations and obtained members.h.i.+p. Why did he have to use other people’s invitation letter?”
“Yes, it’s really unwise. Isn’t it making trouble for himself?”
Qin Haodong ignored the comments and said to Manager Zhang, “Explain it to everyone.”
Manager Zhang wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, “Everyone, this is the invitation letter for distinguished guests issued by President Ye. It’s different from ordinary invitation letters. People who have this invitation letter can take ten people inside, not to mention two.”
At this time, everyone noticed that the invitation letter in Qin Haodong’s hand was dazzling in gold, and their invitation letters were all colored red.
Although Manager Zhang answered their questions, he also aroused their curiosity. Just now the four prestigious families came out to help him. Now he had even received President Ye’s VIP invitation. What was the ident.i.ty of this young man?
Zheng Hongliang’s face was burning. Just now he thought that Qin Haodong had sneaked in and wasn’t qualified to receive the invitation to the reception. But in a second, he took out a VIP invitation letter, which was even more prestigious than the invitation letter in his hand. This was too much to handle.
“No, he’s just a medical student. The security company is the biggest property he has. How can he get the VIP invitation from Mr. Ye?”
Thinking of this, he immediately cried out, “Manager Zhang, it’s a fake. His invitation must be fake. Take a look at it…”
Manager Zhang stared at him and thought, “Do you want to make trouble for me again? Qin Haodong has already brought out the letter of invitation. I would be killed if I check his invitation again.”
At this time, another cold voice sounded, “Who has the nerve to question the invitation I sent?”
Ye Qing came over from outside. She was worthy of the t.i.tle of No. 2 of Haodong Group. She exuded a powerful aura in her steps, just like a proud queen.
When Ye Qing came over, everyone gave way. She went straight to Qin Haodong.
Ye Qing looked around and finally put her cold eyes on Zheng Hongliang and asked him again, “Are you questioning the invitation I sent out?”
Zheng Hongliang suddenly felt a chill rising from his back. Before he came here, he had promised Old Master Zheng that he would get the most benefits and win over more connections for the Zheng family.
Unexpectedly, before the summit even began, he had already offended Ye Qing, the head of the summit. If Old Master Zheng knew about it, he wouldn’t be better off than Sun Jin.
He hurriedly said respectfully, “President Ye, you misunderstood me. I didn’t mean that. I didn’t see the golden invitation so I was a bit curious.”
Ye Qing coldly replied, “Don’t do such things again, or I’ll have your Zheng family’s members.h.i.+p removed.”
“Definitely. I won’t do it anymore.”
Zheng Hongliang was scared to death. The financial summit held by Haodong Group had countless commercial resources. He couldn’t imagine what would happen to him if he lost the members.h.i.+p.
Sun Qian, who had been silent for a long time, secretly rejoiced that he had been clever this time. He didn’t directly stand up against Qin Haodong or he would have ended up like Zheng Hongliang.
“Who gave you the courage to check the VIP invitation at the reception area?” Ye Qing asked Manager Zhang
“Er… President Ye… “
At this time, Manager Zhang wanted to die. According to the regulations, it was the doorman’s business to check the invitation letter. After the guests have entered the conference hall, they couldn’t check it casually as that would not be respecting the guests.
He didn’t only violated the rules, but also offended a VIP. This responsibility couldn’t be s.h.i.+rked in any way.
“Well, go to the accounts department to get your salary and leave the Haodong Group. You don’t need to come any more.”
Ye Qing took Manager Zhang’s job in a single sentence.
Manager Zhang, with an ashen face, knew that he had brought disaster upon himself today. He could only leave the reception in silence. He scolded Sun Qian and Zheng Hongliang’s ancestors to their 18 generations in his heart. If it wasn’t for these two people, he would not seek death.
After dealing with the disturbance, Ye Qing said to the people present, “This is my brother Qin Haodong, the most honorable guest of Haodong Group. If anyone dares to disrespect my brother, you can just get lost from here.”
The words were loud and powerful, and the whole area fell silent, but there were huge waves in everyone’s heart.
They knew very well how proud Ye Qing was. It was really difficult for ordinary people to even see her. How could she value this young man so much? Just who was he?
Although there was no answer for the time being, they all had a firm belief in their hearts; There should be no accidents while making good friends with this young man!
“My brother started a new jewelry company in Shanghai. It is called Lin’s Jewelry. I hope you will visit in the future,” Ye Qing continued.
Qin Haodong was also surprised by Ye Qing’s response. It was not too much to call her G.o.d’s Favor. She had the t.i.tle of “Little Witch” in the capital. Why would she like him?
She had not only sent him a unique invitation letter, but had also promoted Lin’s Jewelry in public to improve its status. If it was only as an apology, he wouldn’t believe it.
The reception went on. Qin Haodong said to Ye Qing, “President Ye, thank you for your help.”
“There’s no need to thank me. You’ll be my brother in the future. If you need any help, feel free to come to me!” Ye Qing smiled at Qin Haodong and said, “I’ll leave you alone. I need to get ready for the reception!”
Then she left and went backstage.
As soon as Ye Qing left, others immediately swarmed up to encircle Qin Haodong and Lin Momo.
These people now understood that making friends with the two youngsters was equivalent to making friends with Haodong Group, Maldini Jr, Yagyuu Yukime, and Kim Jihyun.
Of course, they would not let go of such a good opportunity. For a while, their flattery overwhelmed Qin Haodong and Lin Momo.
Qin Haodong left all the social affairs to Lin Momo and finally rushed out of the crowd.
“Why? Don’t you like this kind of an occasion?” Zhou Xinzhu came up to him and asked.
Qin Haodong angrily replied, “These people go too far. An old man who is obviously in his 70s and has one foot in the grave, wanted to be sworn brothers with me. Isn’t that ridiculous?
“There is also an old man who wanted to marry his daughter to me. He should be at least 80 years old. How old would her daughter be? I don’t have such a weird taste.”
“That’s normal. You are the focus of the reception. Everyone wants to connect with you,” Zhou Xinzhu laughed. “I’m young, or you can consider me to be.”
“Good idea!” Qin Haodong said with a smile, “When the reception is over, we will cut off a chicken head and drink yellow wine. We can be sworn brothers from now on!”
Zhou Xinzhu gave him a charming stare and said, “Screw you. You know I don’t mean that.”
Lin Momo was surrounded by the people. The business cards she had prepared were snapped up soon. Many people asked about the opening date and the location of Lin’s Jewelry, and wrote down her phone number.
After some more bustle, the reception officially began, and Ye Qing stepped on the stage elegantly.
