On the surface of the capital, the most expensive house was a courtyard house. The chairman of the board of directors of the Lihua Group, the biggest head of the large corporation and the biggest shareholder, Song Tianye, lived in this kind of courtyard house.
Zhang Jinming and the rest were brought around the bustling capital city for half a day before they entered a quiet alley. Not too far away, they saw people in suits and leather shoes patrolling around. They got out of the car in front of an antique courtyard.
At that time, Zhang Jinming discovered that there was an endless stream of cars passing by the entrance.
Those who came down had smiles plastered on their faces, but all of them had a respectful attitude, not daring to act rashly in the slightest.
As a subordinate, Xiao Bin didn't have the qualifications to enter. At the entrance, he was stopped by two people outside.
Zhang Jinming followed Luo Shien inside, and shockingly discovered that the courtyard was extremely spacious and had been renovated to the point that it seemed like a classical Chinese building.
There were quite a number of people gathered in the courtyard. Everyone was talking and laughing, but they were all very careful. No one had ever acted rashly before.
In the end, this was the place where the tallest boss of Lihua Company lived. Everyone followed the rules.
Zhang Jinming followed Luo Shien inside, passing by a house, and stopped in a room that was filled with people. He searched inside, as if searching for something.
Soon, he noticed that there were two seats in the air above one of the tables. Thus, he walked over.
Zhang Jinming followed closely behind, and his emotions at this time were completely unimaginable. Although there were many people sitting in this room, no one dared to speak loudly. It was as if they were all following an invisible rule.
After following Luo Shien who sat down at the side, Zhang Jinming suddenly realized that there was a name on the table where he was sitting. Obviously, the people sitting here had all been arranged beforehand.
To Zhang Jinming's surprise, the person seated opposite him turned out to be Chen Guohui. God, the chairman of Lihua Corporation in Haihe Province. He could be considered a savior.
"Jin Ming, you came as well." Chen Guohui's face showed some surprise, he looked at Zhang Jinming and laughed.
"Hello, Chairman." Zhang Jinming panicked and quickly got up.
Chen Guohui waved his hand, gesturing for him to sit down. "Alright, Jin Ming, sit down."
Zhang Jinming suppressed his excitement and carefully sat down.
Chen Guohui then talked with Luo Shien at ease. Obviously, the two of them were more familiar with each other. After all, Luo Shien was also discovered by Chen Guohui. The two of them reached a tacit understanding between each other at the provincial company.
Zhang Jinming continuously observed his surroundings and quickly understood a fact. Among all the people in the room, most likely only he had the lowest position. The one with the lowest position was a Department Manager, and only he, Zhang Jinming, was an assistant general manager. It seemed that the threshold for participating in Song Tianye's banquet was high enough. If it were not for Song Yimei's great effort, Zhang Jinming might not even have such a chance.
Zhang Jinming once again experienced what it meant to have people in the imperial court who are good at being an official. In this current Chinese people's society, how to establish a relationship that was beneficial to him was something even more important than going to work.
After about half an hour, the waiters came up with all sorts of high-end dishes.
After the dishes were served, everyone did not move their chopsticks. Instead, they all looked towards the entrance at the same time.
A few minutes later, an elderly man with white hair and wearing a white suit slowly walked in, leaning on a walking stick. Song Yimei and a young man in her twenties were supporting the old man from the left and right. There were three men behind him, so it was clear that the ages of these three men weren't that different. They followed closely behind the old man in a very orderly manner.
Needless to say, Zhang Jinming had actually already guessed that the old man was Song Tianye. As for the young man who helped him like Song Yimei, he was probably his grandson. Although Zhang Jinming did not dare to say anything about the three people behind him, he was certain that they were his sons.
Actually, Zhang Jinming's guess was not wrong. The young man supporting Song Tianye was Song Yiguang, the eldest son of his eldest son, Song Jixiang. He was twenty-nine years old this year. Following behind Song Tianye were his eldest son, Song Jizhen, his second son, and his youngest son, Song Jifeng. Song Tianye's current career was like the sun in the sky, and there was naturally no lack of three sons working together to help his. The eldest son, Song Jixiang, was responsible for the largest research and development laboratory in the Li Hua Group Company, and many of the products in the company were developed under his leadership. Song Jizhen was mainly responsible for the administration of the company. His youngest son, Song Jifeng, was the main organizer of Lihua Branch s in Southeast Asia.
When Song Tianye and the rest entered, everyone stood up and greeted him respectfully.
Song Tianye looked at everyone with satisfaction, nodded his head, and laughed: "Everyone sit. It's an honor for me to attend my old man's birthday party today. I only have three requests. Everyone must eat well, drink well, and play well. "
Never did he expect that Song Tianye's words would be so friendly. Zhang Jinming's heart warmed. From the looks of it, once a person's position was high enough, there was no difference in status between them and those at the bottom.
This meal could be said to be an exceptionally careful one. Although Song Tianye said to let everyone eat as they please, no one dared to. Basically, everyone did not use their chopsticks and only listened to Song Tianye speak.
After Song Tianye finished speaking, he left the place.
The birthday feast was over.
Not long after Song Tianye, everyone tactfully stood up and walked out.
Zhang Jinming was shocked, f * * k, no way. It's that simple. Could it be that the reason he had travelled so far was to listen to the old man's lecture? Why isn't he even willing to eat a meal? This is too …
Just as Zhang Jinming was thinking, he saw Luo Shien and Chen Guohui also standing up, he quickly stopped thinking and stood up as well.
When the three of them walked out, suddenly, a man who looked to be over a hundred years old walked over and looked at Luo Shien. He said, "Luo Manager, Elder Song wants to meet Mr. Zhang Jinming."
Luo Shien glanced at Zhang Jinming and nodded slightly, but did not say a word.
Thus, Zhang Jinming followed that man and left.
Hey, did the old man need to see him alone for something important? Zhang Jinming didn't dare to think about this. However, he was just the Assistant General Manager of the Earth. Big Boss had nothing important to say to him. Thinking about it, Zhang Jinming suddenly felt that it was extremely funny.
With an uneasy feeling, Zhang Jinming followed the man through a few rooms, and arrived at a courtyard surrounded by lush green trees.
He saw Song Tianye lying in a rocking chair, with Song Yimei and Song Yiguang nestling on the side, massaging his arms. Zhang Jinming could not help but sigh. Song Tianye truly knew how to enjoy life. Damn, in the future when I can change the world like this, it won't be worth it! Ai, I f * cking went too far. I don't even have a wife yet. Suddenly, an indescribable pain surfaced in Zhang Jinming's heart.
"Master, Teacher Zhang has brought them here." The man came over and said respectfully.
Song Yimei suddenly jumped up, and looking at Zhang Jinming with a pleasantly surprised face, she ran over, grabbed his arm, and said while laughing, "Jin Ming, you even came here yesterday, why haven't you come here to play with me? It's fortunate that I was so worried about you."
Zhang Jinming laughed dryly, he never thought that Song Yimei would be so passionate, he tried to struggle free, but he was helplessly hugged tightly by this girl.
"Aren't I already here?"
"Aiya, Jin Ming, how's your injury? Hurry up and let me have a look." Song Yimei said as she went to look at Zhang Jinming's clothes.
Zhang Jinming anxiously pulled at his clothes, and quickly said: "Don't, Yi Mei, I'm fine, you don't have to worry."
"Alright, Yi Mei, you've already grown up and are now a girl, why are you still so childish. "Hurry up and come over." Song Tianye slowly raised his eyelids, glanced at Song Yimei, and said indifferently.
"No, grandfather. "Jin Ming risked his life for me. I have to see how concerned he is." Song Yimei pouted, looking a little spoiled.
Song Tianye laughed out loud, "You really are an ungrateful bastard, I've pulled you so far, why have I never seen you show me any concern? "It seems that this girl is really unlucky."
This last sentence had a hint of meaning, causing Zhang Jinming to not know what to do, and laughed awkwardly.
Song Yimei was even more embarrassed. She shook her head, and her fair and soft cheeks instantly flushed red. She lightly stamped her foot with her lips and pretended to be angry as she said, "You're annoying, Grandfather. What nonsense are you spouting?"
At this time, Song Yiguang said to Song Tianye, "Grandfather, Yi Mei's face is red, this is the first time I've seen this girl being shy, it really wasn't easy."
Saying this, the grandfather-grandson pair began to laugh.
Song Yimei glared fiercely at Song Yiguang, and rebuked, "Brother, what nonsense are you spouting? If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll get my sister-in-law to deal with you."
Song Yiguang covered his mouth in panic, but still laughed secretly.
"Yi Mei, could it be that you're going to let your friend stand here and not invite him to sit down?" Song Tianye said at this time.
Song Yimei suddenly realized and anxiously pulled Zhang Jinming over, and sat down beside him.
This was the first time he had faced the highest boss of the company at such a close distance. Zhang Jinming suddenly had a feeling like he was facing the president of a country. The tension and uneasiness in his heart were self-evident.
"Young man, don't be nervous. Just treat me as a little old man." Song Tianye slightly bowed, and said with a light smile.
