Return To 1990

Chapter 35 - Gao Zhiwei's Hesitation



Gao Zhiwei's expression darkened. Indeed, there were people in the company (he worked in) who were better than him; moreover, the company developed at a rapid pace. The reason he headed north was to steal market ideas and increase his authority in the company.

He did not doubt Lu Feng’s identity; he had heard that his boss made contact with overseas investors to raise money. There were many overseas investors from China, the west, and Hong Kong.

"I wonder what your family does?" Gao Zhiwei's approach changed to a polite one.

"My family hosts some small business. My dad has a partnership with someone on Wall Street and sells financial products and insurance!" Lu Feng said indifferently, trying to convey that he considered a business such as the one mentioned as no big deal.

Financial products and insurance?

This was called a small sale?

"To someone like you, it is indeed a small business. It must be fate, for us to meet here. Are you investigating a project here?" Gao Zhiwei asked.

The others were also curious.

"This is my father’s hometown, my father left for Guangzhou in '57. He came to Hong Kong the next year and finally moved to the U.S. in 1961. It wasn't easy to start from scratch, when a Chinese person leaves for another country, they mostly open a Chinese restaurant. People fall in love with their families as soon as they get rich. My father is the one who talks about his hometown the most. I decided to come here to take a look!" Lu Feng sighed as he spoke as if he had experienced the vicissitudes of life.

"No matter where you go, you can't forget it!" Someone said,

"Yes, it's because of these patriotic people that we can develop."

"After all, we are not people from other countries. We are all descendants of Yan Huang."

"Are you planning to stay in China?" Gao Zhiwei probed.

"My old man told me to stay in the country, I really don't know what to do. After listening to your boss's call, I'm actually interested in cooking food. I've been investigating and conducting test runs recently, but this is my first time starting a business. I'm not afraid to lose $10million to $20 million if I fail." Lu Feng said without a care.

"Twenty million dollars?" Some guests widened their eyes in disbelief.

"Isn't that too much?"

"That much?" Lu Feng looked as if he had no greed for money. He smiled, “If you want to do it, let us do the biggest. Set a small goal first and make it 100 million."

Han Dong and Datou’s heads were almost on their plates. They did not dare raise their heads, afraid of not being able to hold back their laughter.

In their perspective, Lu Feng was really good at acting. The two of them even felt he was in the wrong line of work. He did not even blush when bragging, many details came to them from his speech so casually, as if he was telling the truth.

"However, I don't have many people in China. Mr. Gao, if you have any suitable contact, can you introduce them to me? Salary and treatment will not be a problem." Lu Feng stretched out his hand.

Gao Zhiwei and the others were in a daze. Looking at Lu Feng, they felt that a pie had fallen from sky. They had heard too many of stories like the situation they were in. They referred to ‘meeting a big shot at dinner, rising up in life and meeting their fated one by accident; and the other party had revealed their identity as a big shot.

Now that such a thing had landed on Gao Zhiwei's head, he felt dizzy.

"What's your name?" Gao Zhiwei realized that he did know his name yet.

"My surname is Lu, and my English name is Jason Lu!" Lu Feng introduced.

When Datou heard the English name, he could not help but laugh out loud. He suddenly stopped himself, feeling as if his voice was stuck in his throat.

"What's wrong Jenne?" Lu Feng stared at Big Head with a hostile expression. Datou waved his hand to show his embarrassment. Lu Feng turned his head towards him and asked with a genuine tone, “This is Jenny, my personal housekeeper. That is Claude, my bodyguard, and driver."

"Hello." Gao Zhiwei greeted them and was a little excited. He glared into Lu Feng’s eyes and said, “I don't know how to contact you if I have a suitable candidate."

"I've just returned home and can’t use my business card overseas. How about I come to the hotel to meet you in five days."

Lu Feng looked at Datou and Han Dong and asked, “Jenny, Claude, have you guys finished eating?"

"Yeah!", “Yeah!" The two replied excitedly.

The two of them nodded at each other several times to cooperate with Lu Feng. Han Dong was still a little jerky and his big face was red. After all, he was cooperating with Lu Feng

"See you later!" Lu Feng stood up and waved.

"Mr. Lu, I’m not staying at Tianyue. I'm at the Lijing Hotel on the opposite side."

"Okay, I got it." Lu Feng walked to the waiter's side and packed some refreshments. He walked out of the hall slowly with the packed refreshments in his hands.

Just as they walked out of the door, Han Dong and Datou heaved a sigh of relief. They looked at Lu Feng and said, “Brother Feng, what were you talking about? It has nothing to do with us."

"That's right. You were originally looking for Ren Qianbo's wife. After that matter was settled, why did you lie like that?" Han Dong whispered, “If I didn't know your background, I would have believed you as well."

"That Gao Zhiwei is a talent. I want to recruit him." Lu Feng said casually.

"Ah? How do you know he’s a talent?" Han Dong mumbled.

Lu Feng could not reply. He could not tell him. Not only did I know that he was a talent, but I also knew that Wahaha would be very good in the future. He could only laugh and say it was intuition.

At 9:30 p.m, in a small villa by the downtown area, sounds of quarrels and fights were heard.

"Ren Qianbo, can you save some face? You even picked up a widow! "

"Does it have anything to do with you? If you can't do it, then scram."

"Your wings have grown too much, telling me to scram. If it weren't for my father, where would you be today? You are just a door-to-door son-in-law(1)."

"Damn it!"

Screams, curses, cries, and howls rose and fell. In the eyes of outsiders, Ren Qianbo was rich, glorious, and very happy. But the truth was quite the opposite, ironically.

Lu Feng parked his car at his Third Brother's house and prepared to go upstairs. Suddenly, he recognized the figure of Wu Hongyu squatting at the door, smoking a cigarette, and glaring at him with eyes filled with resentment.

Lu Feng took a few steps back and stood in front of him, saying," If you dare to come to my house again, I'll cripple you. I don’t want to see you again, it annoys me. Try if you want to."

"Hmph!" Wu Hongyu stood up and returned to his room snorting. He did not dare to go even if he had three guts, especially after the four monkeys had met with an ‘accident’; he was on edge.

Lu Feng opened the door to his apartment and saw Jiang Xiaoyan and Duo Duo sitting at the dining table. The two of them were delighted to see him return.

"Why did you come back so late? The food got cold.” “Duo Duo you are making a lot of noise while eating " Jiang Xiaoyan complained a little.

"If the child wants to eat, then let her eat. Wait for me, we’ll go out for dinner." Lu Feng placed the bag on the table and smiled at Duo Duo." Try this."

"What is this?"

"Guangzhou refreshment! (2)"

"That's very expensive, right? You've been spending so much money lately. How can you continue living like this and save some money? Our family isn't rich, so don’t compete with other rich people."

Jiang Xiaoyan was nagging like an old woman, but she quickly opened the bag in her hand and took a bite.

"Honey, let's live somewhere else."

Lu Feng looked at the pretty face under the gas lamp. There were too many people in their building jealous of their family. Who knew what they would do? After the factory was established, it would definitely turn for worse. He would rather not risk something happening to his family.

Jiang Xiaoyan looked at him with her face turning beet-red. She bashfully punched him and said," What’s ‘honey’? Why are you always using nauseous words? Don't say it in the future. It's very embarrassing."

Lu Feng smiled asked mischievously, " What should I call you then?"

"Call me by my name."

"That's too much for me!"

"Then just call me by my initials!"

"It's too much. I think it's better for me to call you ‘darling’, ‘baby’, ‘little darling’ my wife. Pick one." Lu Feng deliberately said this because he had never seen such a shy girl.

"Are you deliberately trying to shame me?" Jiang Xiaoyan stood up and raised her hand, like warning a child for an incoming slap.

Lu Feng turned around and ran away. The room was filled with joy for a moment.

Gao Zhiwei couldn't sleep when he lay in his hotel bed. All he could think of was that sentence. ‘Your boss said that you weren't the best!’
