Chapter 237 Communication
Just as Bai Jinjun was about to introduce everyone present to An Rushong, footsteps were heard from the direction of the door, and two middle-aged men in black suits walked into the restaurant led by a woman.
Seeing someone else walk into the restaurant, Bai Jinjun had to stop introducing An Rusong. He apologized to An Rusong in a low voice, then stood up to greet the two people who had just come in, and said with a smile: "Yuting, Xiuzhen, you guys are here to play."
While Bai Jinjun was greeting the visitor, An Rushong glanced at the faces of the people on both sides of the long table. During this time, he found that several people were also looking at him. When their eyes met, they naturally nodded and greeted each other. However, these people present were all very unfamiliar to An Rushong. If no one introduced them, he would not know any of them.
"Come, come, let me introduce you." His eyes just turned around the faces of the crowd and came back. Bai Jinjun had already finished greeting the two people who had just arrived. He led the two to the side of the long table and arranged for them to sit in two seats behind An Rusong. Then he said, "This is Professor Jiang Xiuzhen, currently teaching at the Law School of Korea University. He is a great professor in the field of law research in the Republic of Korea. Previously, in the process of dealing with the progressives' slander, Professor Jiang provided Mr. Qingxi with a lot of good suggestions."
Oh, I didn’t expect that this fat white guy is actually a professor at the Korea University Law School. Moreover, from what Bai Jinjun said, this guy seems to have a high status in the Korea University Law School.
After Bai Jinjun introduced the other party's identity, An Rusong took the initiative to stand up and bowed to him. This guy is useful to An Rusong. After all, Rubin's ambition is to rely on the law school of Korea University. If he can get in touch with this guy, it will definitely provide some convenient conditions for Rubin's admission in the future. At worst, after Rubin is admitted to the law school of Korea University, she will be able to find someone with weight in the school to take care of her, right?
That's right, An Rushong never considered that his sister might not be able to get into the law school of Korea University. Even if she did, he would send his sister in no matter what, no matter how much money it cost. In Korea, there is no problem that money cannot solve.
Seeing An Rushong standing up and greeting him, Jiang Xiuzhen, who had just taken his seat, also hurriedly stood up again and bowed in return to An Rushong, who was obviously much younger than him.
"This is Prosecutor Shen Yuting," Bai Jinjun walked behind another person, put his hands on his shoulders, and said with a smile, "He is currently the chief prosecutor of the Criminal Division of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office. In addition, he is also a member of the so-called 'BBK Special Prosecutor's' investigation team."
Of the two new arrivals, Jiang Xiuzhen sat diagonally opposite An Rushong, while Shen Yuting sat on his right. Because the distance was very close, after Bai Jinjun introduced the other party's identity, An Rushong took the lead in extending his hand to the other party.
Although Shen Yuting was much older than him, when he saw him extending his hand, he hurriedly shook hands with him and nodded at him with a smile as a greeting.
"Well, all of our guests today are here," Bai Jinjun walked back to his seat after introducing the two people. He did not sit down, but continued to speak while standing, "It's just right, I will introduce everyone at once."
After saying this, he began to introduce everyone present one by one, starting with the middle-aged man at the front.
Just as An Rushong guessed, the people present came from all walks of life in Korean society. Among them were businessmen like him, prosecutors like Shen Yuting, and scholars like Jiang Xiuzhen. Of course, there were even more officials from different departments in Seoul, and even politicians.
Bai Jinjun said that tonight's dinner was a celebration dinner, which meant that everyone present had helped Li Minbo in some way during his presidential campaign, and therefore, they could all be considered heroes in Li Minbo's eyes.
In addition to its nature as a celebratory banquet, this dinner can actually be seen as a social gathering. Bai Jinjun, under the name of Li Minbo, gathered these people together and introduced them to each other, thus forming a circle of neither too big nor too small. In the future, members of the circle can take care of each other and help each other. This is the real function of the so-called circle.
At the dinner, An Rushong was very active. There was nothing he could do about it, because he was the youngest. Among all the participants, he was the only one who was under 30 years old. Besides him, the youngest person was Che Junzuo, the director of the Information Management Office of the Ministry of the Executive Yuan, and he was ten years older than An Rushong.
However, because he was the youngest, it was easier for him to get along with others, because these people had just joined Li Minbo's camp and were not familiar with each other. Therefore, when they interacted with each other, they all felt a little pressure. And An Rusong was the youngest and a real "junior", so he was more humble. When others interacted with him, they did not feel much pressure, and it was easier for them to get to know each other.
At the beginning of the dinner, Bai Jinjun apologized to everyone on behalf of Li Minbo, saying that due to some official reasons, Mr. Qingxi could not attend today's dinner and hoped that everyone would understand.
In fact, including An Rusong, no one present expected Lee Min-bo to appear at the dinner. After all, he was the president who won the election. In two months, he would be the number one in the Republic of Korea. Not to mention the dinner they attended, even if it was a dinner attended by ministers, they might not be able to invite him to attend.
On occasions like today, it was already a great honor for Li Minbo to arrange Bai Jinjun to host the event.
Nearly an hour into the dinner, Bai Jinjun received a phone call. After apologizing to everyone, he hurriedly left the restaurant, and no one knew where he went.
As he left, the atmosphere at the table became more lively. People began to leave their seats, toast each other, and exchange business cards and contact information. An Rusong also went around and got more than ten business cards, becoming familiar with everyone. Then, he returned to his seat, turned around, and was about to chat with Jiang Xiuzhen next to him, but heard someone next to him say, "Rusong, come on, let's have a drink."
An Rushong turned his head and saw Shen Yuting standing beside him at some point.
"Brother Yuting," An Rusong stood up hurriedly, greeted him with a smile, and picked up the wine glass on the table, "I toast you a glass."
At this time, Shen Yuting's face was flushed, and it was obvious that he had drunk a lot. He put one hand on An Rushong's shoulder and held the wine glass with the other hand. Because the glass was tilted, half of the wine in the glass had been poured out.
After gently clinking his glass with the other person's, An Rushong drank the wine in the glass, then showed the empty glass to the other person.
At this moment, Shen Yuting had finished the wine in his glass. He burped, then moved closer to An Rusong and whispered, "I heard Li Xinhou mention you before. How is it going? Has the case been resolved?"
"It's been resolved, Brother Yuting," An Rushong replied with a smile.
Shen Yuting is the director of the Criminal Division 1 of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office and is also eligible to be transferred to the investigation team of the "BBK Special Prosecutors' Office." This shows that this person has a deep background in the prosecutorial system. As for Li Xinhou, he is also affiliated with the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office. No matter which branch office he belongs to, as long as he is within the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, he will most likely have the opportunity to deal with Shen Yuting. Therefore, it is normal for the two to know each other.
"That's good," Shen Yuting said with a smile, "Li Xinhou is a complete sly guy who likes to take advantage of others and has no principles in doing things. But you don't have to be afraid of him. I'll invite you to dinner later. If he tries to be sly with you again in the future, you can see how I'll deal with him."
In South Korea, prosecutors do have great power. They handle cases independently and make their own decisions. But this does not mean that once you become a prosecutor, you can do whatever you want and fear no one. There is no profession in this world that is not subject to any constraints.
Just like Shen Yuting, he may not be able to directly control an ordinary prosecutor like Li Xinhou, but as the head of the Criminal Department, his connections are definitely not comparable to Li Xinhou. As long as he uses his connections a little, he can send Li Xinhou to some remote place and let this guy waste the rest of his life.
The most important thing is that Li Xinhou is a dirty guy. If Shen Yuting is determined to cause trouble for him, he may not be able to withstand it.
"Then I'll ask Brother Yuting to take good care of me from now on," An Rushong flattered with a smile.
He didn't think of causing trouble for Li Xinhou. After all, that guy who would do things for money was actually a pretty good guy. At least An Rushong liked such people very much.
However, he liked Li Xinhou, which did not conflict with his friendship with Shen Yuting. If possible, he even hoped to get to know all the prosecutors in South Korea. After all, who would have too many connections?
"Don't say anything too formal," Shen Yuting smiled and patted An Rusong on the shoulder, "We are all family."
Watching the other party staggering away, An Rusong turned around and put the wine glass back on the long table. Just as he was about to sit down, he saw Jiang Xiuzhen standing up with a wine glass in his hand. He said with a smile on his face, "Rusong, let's have a drink too. Your NGN software is great. Although I've only quit it for a short time, I can't do without it at work anymore."
"Professor Jiang, thank you for your support," An Rushong said as he quickly poured wine into his glass.
