Chapter 181 Tang Song, President Tang
Chapter 181 Tang Song, President Tang
During his college years, Du Shaokai was somewhat famous among the students of the 16 grade of the School of Computer Science and Technology.
He is handsome, drives a car, is cheerful and outgoing, and spends money lavishly.
I know Qiu Yu and Wang Ning, who are in the student union of the same college, and we have a pretty good relationship.
However, we have had almost no contact since graduation, at most I would occasionally like a post on WeChat Moments.
But for Du Shaokai, who is in dire straits now, it is simply a life-saving straw.
This bunch of stupid rich second-generations didn't give a shit about him, and with the arrival of a few talkative alumni, he was able to free himself.
Du Shaokai put down the wine glass in his hand heavily, stood up quickly, and walked up with a smile on his face.
He patted Wang Ning on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Not bad, Wang Ning, you are doing well now. With this polo shirt and the watch on, you really look like a successful person."
Wang Ning raised his eyebrows proudly, "Not bad."
Then, Du Shaokai opened his arms towards Qiu Yu with a playful smile, "Xiaoyu sister, we haven't seen each other for almost three years. Is it okay to hug me?"
Qiu Yu smiled and patted his arm. "You are already three years older, but you are still so naughty."
"I call this sticking to one's original intention! A man is a young man until he dies!"
The two laughed and joked a few words.
Although Qiu Yu was smiling on the surface, there was always some lingering emotion in her eyes when she looked at Du Shaokai.
During her college years, she actually developed a crush on Du Shaokai.
After all, the other person has good looks and conditions, is romantic, can say sweet words, and play the guitar, and is very popular among the girls in the student union.
But later I found out that he was really promiscuous and had changed several girlfriends both inside and outside the school.
Later, this little thought gradually faded away, and this time when I came to Yancheng, I didn't think about meeting him.
However, fate is so magical. As soon as she stepped into the second floor of the bar, she saw that somewhat familiar figure.
Pretending to be calm, she walked up to him and called out his name.
Three years later, he seems to have matured a bit.
He had a 2:8 side parted hairstyle, a black embroidered shirt, and brown trousers. He looked handsome and a bit gentle, but he also looked a bit ruffian when he smiled.
It seemed to bring her back to that sunny university campus.
Du Shaokai looked to the side, pointed at a few alumni beside them, and said thoughtfully: "These seem to be your classmates in software engineering, right? Are you... Lu... Lu Ziming?"
He was not familiar with the others because they were not in the student union, and they were just smiling when they met in school.
However, he still had some impression of Lu Ziming, the rich second generation, who was considered a celebrity in the school.
"Hello." Lu Ziming nodded, but since they were not familiar with each other, he didn't say much.
He is about 178 cm tall, with strong facial features. He looks steady and tough. He cannot be called handsome, but he seems to be pleasing to the eye.
"Indeed, they are all my college classmates." Qiu Yu collected his wandering thoughts, pointed to the booth behind him, and asked curiously: "Are these your friends?"
In the past few years since entering society, she has come into contact with many people while working in pre-sales technical support, and her eyesight has also been improved.
A lot can be seen from the outfits and temperament of these men and women.
Du Shaokai's expression froze, and he pretended to be casual and said, "We are all colleagues from the company, and we are out for team building together."
At this moment, a girl next to Qi Wen stood up and waved towards them.
He said openly, "Lu Ziming, long time no see."
Lu Ziming was stunned for a moment, looked at her carefully for a few times, and asked in surprise: "Pei Xinxin?"
"Haha, is it a little hard to recognize you? You haven't changed at all." Pei Xinxin covered her mouth and chuckled.
Lu Ziming nodded and praised: "You are more beautiful than before."
This Pei Xinxin was a blind date introduced by his father to him when he was in his third year of graduate school.
The two were friends for a while, but then they broke up because they didn't really feel attracted to each other.
I haven't seen Pei Xinxin for half a year. She changed her hairstyle, put on heavy makeup, and dressed very sexily. She is quite different from the impression I had of her.
Coupled with the dim lighting in the bar, Lu Ziming would not have recognized her if she hadn't spoken.
Qi Wen crossed her legs and asked, "Xinxin, is this your friend?"
Pei Xinxin tilted her head and said with a smile: "Well, Ziming's sister is the director of the sales department of Zhongcheng Group, and she is a colleague of my uncle."
She was being polite. In fact, Lu Ziming's sister was just a supervisor of a sales team, while her uncle was the sales department manager.
"Oh?" Li Junyi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Yufan, I remember your family has shares in Zhongcheng Group, right?"
Liang Yufan took a sip of the orange-red wine and said casually, "Just a little bit, about 2%."
Qi Wen blinked and said, "It has to be our Manager Tian. Her father is the major shareholder and executive director of Zhongcheng Group."
"Uh, I almost forgot about Xiao Jing. Mainly because she usually doesn't play with us. She's too low-key."
...
Listening to the conversation of several people in the booth, Lu Ziming, Qiu Yu and others felt their hearts beating fast.
What is this all about? It seems to be very impressive.
Lu Ziming knows a lot about the company his sister works for.
A well-known industrial company in Yancheng, it has been deeply involved in the textile, standard parts and other industries for many years, with a net asset value of more than 12 billion and nearly 3500 employees.
One can imagine how powerful the shareholders and directors of such an industrial group are.
Especially now that he has joined Tiancheng Capital, his understanding has become clearer.
The rich second generation also have boundaries within their circles, such as him and these people.
Lu Ziming licked his lips and smiled warmly, "It seems like we are all destined to meet. How about we have a few drinks together later? Our booth is T23."
Liang Yufan and the others said a few polite words and had no intention of inviting him to sit here.
After all, today is a small team building within Jinxiu Trading, and they don’t think highly of these people and don’t have much intention of making friends with them.
Li Junyi looked at Pei Xinxin and then at Lu Ziming.
He shouted to the bar staff nearby, "Please arrange for these distinguished guests to sit in the booth next to us. Tonight's consumption is free. You can drink and eat as much as you want. Don't be polite to me."
Qiu Yu, Wang Ning and others were stunned for a moment.
What does it mean?
The female marketing lady in a suit and skirt quickly bent down and said enthusiastically, "Okay, Mr. Li!"
After that, she extended her hand to the others and said, "Please come and sit in booth T10 over here. If you want anything, just tell me directly."
Looking at this group of alumni who were still in a daze, Du Shaokai still couldn't control his high-profile temperament.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and explained, "He is Li Junyi from our company's strategic investment department. This bar is owned by his family."
Qiu Yu was stunned for a moment, then bent over awkwardly and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li, for the treat!"
She was supposed to treat her old classmates to drinks today, but now they wanted to waive the bill and even upgraded their seat to a booth, so naturally she had to come out and thank them.
Looking at a group of rich second-generations sitting on the sofa with calm and free-spirited expressions, I felt a strong desire to make some of them.
These are all top-notch connections!
Unfortunately, she was clear about her situation and knew that she was not qualified to get together with others, not even Lu Ziming.
Others quickly followed suit and expressed their gratitude.
Li Junyi stood up politely and said with a smile: "You're welcome. Thank you all for coming to drink and support us. You are welcome to come often in the future."
As a second-generation entrepreneur who received elite education since childhood, he has outstanding personal qualities and abilities, and is very generous.
It's just a meal and a drink, it's not worth much.
It's enough to make Pei Xinxin look good.
...
A group of 8 people sat down in the booth next to us, 5 men and 3 women.
Directly opposite is the LiveHouse's large stage, where you can feel the hot atmosphere without any obstruction.
Du Shaokai thought about it and simply sat down at their table.
Leaning back on the spacious and soft sofa, I ordered a few bottles of my favorite beer.
While chatting with a few alumni, I checked the time on my phone.
I planned to wait until the time came and go directly to the door to wait for Tian Jing.
Qiu Yu apologized, "I'm sorry everyone, I didn't expect that the company had something urgent to do, so it was postponed for a day."
She was supposed to arrive in Yancheng on Friday afternoon and had an appointment to meet up on Friday night.
However, due to problems with the client she was responsible for, the schedule was changed and the party time was moved to Saturday.
"It doesn't matter. You can have a more relaxing and enjoyable weekend."
"Yes, yes, I won't come home until I'm drunk tonight!"
"Come on, classmates, let's go." Qiu Yu raised the Wusu in his hand, "Celebrate our reunion after three years!"
"Come on! Cheers!"
"Ding ding ding--" the sound of glass bottles colliding was heard.
Everyone lamented each other's changes and recalled their college memories.
"Xiaoyu, is it much easier for you to switch to a big company and do pre-sales?"
"It's also very hard. I have to travel frequently and run around the country." Qiu Yu shook his head helplessly.
Her programming talent is average and the logic of her code is often unclear.
After barely working for a year, I switched careers and did pre-sales technical support. After all, it was a sales position and was very unstable.
She looked at Lu Ziming across from her and whispered, "I really envy Ziming. He graduated from graduate school, his family arranged a house and car, and he got into such a good financial company."
"Yes, Ziming is probably the best student in our class." "Wang Ning is not bad either, he is now the technical director of School Beauty Shen's company and has shares."
"It's okay, but our company has also encountered some development bottlenecks. We are currently actively looking for financing. Some time ago, Yu Yan and I participated in a roadshow together." Wang Ning was allergic to alcohol. After drinking some beer, his face immediately turned red, and he spoke a little
When the boys present heard the name "Shen Yuyan", their eyes showed emotional fluctuations.
This generation of theirs cannot avoid this name, and it has even become the symbol of youth and white moonlight for many people.
Lu Ziming picked up the wine bottle and gulped down several mouthfuls.
From college to graduate school, he pursued Shen Yuyan for four years.
It wasn't until last year that I finally gave up, followed my family's advice, and started going on blind dates.
As the time approached 8 o'clock in the evening, more and more people came into the LiveHouse.
The host came on stage and gave some passionate opening remarks.
Then, a three-piece band took the stage.
Accompanied by the rhythm of guitar and drums, energetic rock music echoed throughout the bar.
"BGM: Time, which seems meaningless, becomes infinite in your eyes, and youth is filled with sleeplessness..."
The strong sense of rhythm and melody make people sway along. The dance floor of the bar suddenly becomes a place of chaos and the lights sweep across the entire place.
Li Junyi asked his colleagues to leave the booth and go to the glass handrail on the second floor, cheering and clinking glasses to the music.
Several female colleagues dressed sexy and beautifully were swaying there with fans and sunglasses prepared, which was pleasing to the eye.
"BGM: If you haven't slept yet, if I keep chasing you..."
Qiu Yu looked at the handsome Du Shaokai beside her, smiled, pulled his arm, and said loudly: "Classmates, cheer up!"
Du Shaokai felt a little itchy when he saw Qiu Yu, who was twisting her body with delicate makeup beside him.
Although Qiu Yu was not a beauty, she had a good figure and temperament, and was quite popular in the computer department where female students were scarce at that time.
If Xiao Jing hadn't happened tonight, I could have flirted with her and some interesting stories would have happened.
The song ends with "Take Me to Find the Nightlife".
Du Shaokai opened his cell phone and saw that the time was almost up, so he was about to speak.
Qiu Yu suddenly asked, "Shao Kai, which company do you work for now? Are you doing programming?"
Hearing this, others looked over curiously.
Du Shaokai put away his phone and said casually, "Jinxiu Commerce, I don't want to be a programmer anymore. Well, a friend of mine has arrived, I'll go downstairs to pick him up, see you later."
After saying that, Du Shaokai walked quickly towards the stairs.
"Jinxiu Trading?" Lu Ziming raised his eyebrows.
Qiu Yu asked curiously: "What's wrong, Ziming, do you know this company?"
Lu Ziming nodded gently. "We were invested in by Smile Holdings some time ago and are very popular in the investment community. The company is considered the leader in Yan Province's clothing trade industry. Relying on the ecosystem of Smile Holdings, we have already started cross-border business."
"So amazing!" Qiu Yu's eyes lit up.
Others also sighed.
Lu Ziming smiled and said, "There is one more thing. Tang Song is also in Jinxiu Commerce."
"Tang Song?"
"Oh, it's that Tang Song!"
"Tang Song is the most hardworking student I have ever seen in college. He really works hard!"
...
Qiu Yu thought about it carefully, and a roughly complete image gradually emerged in his mind.
When I first entered university, I looked quite pretty, but later on I became more and more free.
He dresses casually, is quiet and introverted, loves studying, has good grades, often appears in the library and study room, and often takes leave to go out to work.
In general, this is a student who doesn't have much presence. If Lu Ziming didn't mention it, they probably wouldn't talk about him tonight.
Thinking of Tang Song, Wang Ning grinned and felt very unhappy.
Not only did he steal the show at the last investment conference, but he also gave the old squad leader the cold shoulder at the cocktail party.
Fuck! Do you think you are so great? I must give him a slap in the face next time we meet!
"Lu Ziming!" Pei Xinxin waved a fluorescent stick in front of him and pointed to the entrance of the first floor. "A female colleague will come over to play later. You can come over and give her a drink!"
"Uh? What do you mean?" Lu Ziming was confused.
Pei Xinxin smiled and said, "It's the colleague that Du Shaokai went down to pick up. Tian Jing's father is a major shareholder of Zhongcheng Group. If you get to know her, it should be good for your sister's development in the group."
Lu Ziming's eyes lit up, "I see, thank you Xinxin."
"You're welcome."
Qiu Yu next to him couldn't help but ask, "Beautiful lady, are you all employees of Jinxiu Commerce?"
"Well, yes, but we are not from the same department, so it can be considered a cross-departmental team building, haha." Pei Xinxin nodded slightly and waved her glow sticks to the music.
"What about Du Shaokai? Which department is he from?"
“He is currently in the Channel Department.”
Looking at the group of rich second-generations with good temperament next to him, Qiu Yu's heart skipped a beat.
The channel department of a trading company is definitely the core department!
Du Shaokai can appear among them as a colleague and can be friends with these people on an equal footing. He must be highly valued in the company and may have a background.
It seems that he is doing really well now and has a bright future.
A female classmate leaned forward and asked curiously, "What about Tang Song? He should be in the technical department, right?"
It is generally acknowledged that Tang Song was very good at studying during his university years and had a very high level of technical skills.
……
Drink Old·Drink Old outside the door.
The air after the rain is very fresh and refreshing.
Du Shaokai stood at the door, adjusted his hairstyle and clothes in front of the camera of his mobile phone, stood straight, and felt a little nervous.
I waited for a while.
Bright lights illuminate the doorway.
"Buzz buzz buzz--" the engine sounded, and a black Maybach slowly drove in and stopped at the main gate.
After a while, the rear door was slowly pushed open.
Tian Jing, wearing a black dress, sexy and sweet, walked down.
Du Shaokai took a deep breath, a bright smile appeared on his face, and he was about to step forward.
Then, a tall figure emerged again.
Tian Jing naturally put her arm around his and said sweetly, "Song, we're here. Now is the most lively time. Let's go to the dance floor and dance together!"
Du Shaokai had just taken half a step when he stopped, his face glowing green under the neon light at the door.
The two of them walked up the steps.
Tang Song saw Xiao Du standing at the door, raised his eyebrows but said nothing.
Tian Jing seemed to have noticed Du Shaokai completely.
Holding Tang Song's arm, she talked about the dance she had learned, with her eyes full of him.
When they passed each other, Du Shaokai clenched his fists tightly and trembled with anger.
Walking through the gate and along the corridor, Tang Song looked around curiously.
Drink Old is a pure American retro industrial style bar. The old furniture, retro lamps and leather sofas look very stylish.
Elements such as exposed brick walls, concrete ceilings, and steel structures are used extensively.
……
"Um...Tang Song..." Pei Xinxin opened her mouth, not knowing how to answer.
"What's wrong, Xinxin?" Lu Ziming asked curiously, "Tang Song is in your company, right? I've seen his offer."
On the stage, the band changed another song, "Summer Soseki" by Orange Sea.
The rhythmic bass sounded.
Li Jun, holding the wine, tilted his head and smiled, "Of course, everyone knows our President Tang."
Mr. Tang?
Because the music was quite loud, they were not sure whether they heard Tang Song or Mr. Tang.
Qiu Yu was about to ask something.
Qi Wen was lying on the railing on the second floor, with her elbows resting on the glass handrail, and she said loudly: "Wow, Xiao Jing is here! She's dressed so beautifully today!"
Then, the colleagues looked towards the entrance to the first floor.
In a dark bar.
The exposed cold white skin is like bright moonlight, clear and beautiful.
The black dress she was wearing was dotted with diamonds, making it particularly dazzling.
Then, everyone's attention turned to the boy next to him.
Tian Jing just put her arm around his, and the two of them were very close.
He was wearing a casual dark suit, which was straight and well-proportioned, with the jacket slightly open, revealing the clean white shirt underneath.
He has a handsome face, a tall figure, and a unique temperament. He walks calmly and confidently, as if every step is in the rhythm of the music. In the retro and dim environment of the bar, he looks even more outstanding.
"Bang~" Li Junyi dropped the bottle in his hand to the ground, blurting out: "Fuck! How come Mr. Tang and Tian Jing are together?"
