With a shout, Zhang Shihui took the lead in pushing open the door to the private room.
With his face glowing red, he stepped aside and Liu Weijing walked in first. The last person to appear was Ning Weimin, who had not been in contact with everyone for several years.
"Ning Weimin!"
Several old colleagues who recognized him called out his name in unison.
And immediately after, many people stood up in unison, including Huang Suqin.
From this subconscious reaction, we can see how much these old colleagues value Ning Weimin.
Indeed, although Ning Weimin worked at Chongwenmen Hotel for less than a year.
Moreover, it was because of disciplinary violations that I resigned and left in disgrace.
But the problem is that after all these years, none of these colleagues have forgotten him.
Even everyone is always paying attention to the news related to him, and they all regard him as a legend who can be used to brag to others.
Unlike Mi Xiaoran who left for the United States, everyone else in this room today basically knows that Ning Weimin has become more and more prosperous after he left his original employer and changed his career to a foreign company.
As we all know, Pierre Cardin is known as the "number one foreign company", and its business has been booming in recent years.
Ning Weimin is also always involved in cultural affairs and projects related to Pierre Cardin.
In fact, no matter what kind of New Year garden party, sculpture art exhibition, Splendid Oriental Model Competition, or "Journey to the West" exhibition, as well as Alain Delon and Catherine Devon's visit to China...
Everyone can always see Ning Weimin's name in newspapers.
In addition, you should also know that Zhang Shihui's wife Liu Weijing still stayed in Chongwenmen Hotel and worked for a long time.
Just by looking at the changes in Liu Weijing, everyone can know how much benefits Zhang Shihui gained by following Ning Weimin.
Apart from anything else, what was Liu Weijing wearing and smearing on his face that was not a valuable imported item?
The lipstick you use may be worth half a month's salary, and you can't buy it without foreign exchange coupons.
Gold jewelry, which is what every woman wants these days, is no longer rare for Liu Weijing.
Especially when she was pregnant, Zhang Shihui actually drove a car and picked her up and dropped her off every day, which made many people envious.
And even if you are jealous, you can't say anything bad about them.
Because everyone sitting here has benefited a lot from it.
Since Zhang Shihui opened a cigarette shop, she has sold cigarettes and alcohol to these old colleagues at the lowest prices in the city.
He doesn't care, but everyone can save a few dollars every month through him.
Since no one can do without the help of these two couples, I have benefited from them.
No matter how jealous you look, it's not easy to talk behind your back, right?
There is no reason to scold the cook when you are full.
Not to mention Pierre Cardin's headquarters and Maxim Restaurant, which are still located in the Chongwenmen Hotel opposite the Chongwenmen Hotel.
On weekdays, you can never prepare for when you will see Ning Weimin coming in and out of Chongwenmen Hotel and Maxim Restaurant.
In fact, there is no need to go into detail about Ning Weimin’s treatment at a foreign company.
Just compare it to the days when people are high-spirited, ride in cars, wear suits, eat Western food, drink coffee, and entertain guests every day.
Then look at your daily life of sitting in the front hall, going to the canteen to get food, waiting for the bus, or riding a bicycle to and from get off work.
It's enough to make these people feel increasingly dirty.
So to be honest, even though these people received Mi Xiaoran's invitation in advance, everyone knew that this was a gathering of all old colleagues.
But due to the "special relationship" between Mi Xiaoran and Ning Weimin, it's really hard to find out. Please don't invite Ning Weimin.
In fact, almost most people don't have this hope.
Many people think that Ning Weimin is no longer a noble person that everyone can afford.
It is a common phenomenon that people tend to forget things when they are away from tea. The world is hot and cold.
Maybe even Zhang Shihui and Liu Weijing won't come.
After all, they no longer work at Chongwenmen Hotel.
If you don't want to come, you can excuse yourself because there are too many things going on lately, and no one can say anything.
However, no one expected that not only Zhang Shihui and Liu Weijing would come today, but also Ning Weimin.
Although they must be late, after all, it has only been ten minutes since they ordered the food, and the cold dishes have not been served yet. As long as people can come, everyone will be overjoyed.
Especially the few people who came late showed no condescension and arrogance, not to mention that Zhang Shihui and Liu Weijing both smiled and greeted everyone.
Call me sister when you should, and joke when you should, just like when everyone worked together in the past.
Ning Weimin, who has become a "giant panda" in everyone's eyes, showed a humble attitude. He bowed repeatedly when entering the door and apologized for their tardiness.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! The road is not easy to walk today, and traffic jams have begun in Beijing. I'm so sorry that everyone is so tired and waiting for us."
This kind and friendly attitude immediately won everyone's favor.
So someone also made a joke. "It's not enough to just apologize with words. You have to toast and apologize."
"I toast, I toast."
Ning Weimin also had no airs. In order to comply with public opinion, he went to find a wine glass himself.
Unexpectedly, he had just picked up the glass of wine when someone said again, "It's not enough to propose a toast. Everyone has to propose a toast."
You know, Mi Xiaoran has booked three tables at Huazhu Restaurant today.
Ning Weimin If everyone really wanted to toast, they would probably all be in place.
For this reason, he did not hesitate to ask for mercy.
"No, can I offer a toast to each table?"
"No! No!" Everyone laughed and deliberately challenged him.
In fact, by this time, the overall atmosphere in the private room was still very happy.
Zhang Shihui also started to smooth things over for Ning Weimin just in time.
He came forward to explain to everyone that he did not blame Ning Weimin today. In fact, he did not control the time when he went out, and he did not expect that it would be so difficult to find a parking space at Huazhu Restaurant. They parked the car in the alley and strolled over.
of.
In this way, if nothing unexpected happens, as long as someone takes the lead to express understanding, such as the leader Huang Suqin.
Others followed suit, and everyone toasted together. The matter was over, and it was over with a laugh.
No one will be embarrassed, and the atmosphere will only be more harmonious.
A party is just for fun.
But the problem is that this meal is hosted by Mi Xiaoran.
Originally, she was just like a resentful woman, holding a grudge against Ning Weimin, wishing that neither he nor Zhang Shihui would show up today.
But the timing for them to push open the door and enter was so short.
Just in time to interrupt Mi Xiaoran's words that were already on the tip of his tongue.
He abruptly diverted everyone's attention and delayed the serious things Mi Xiaoran wanted to say.
Then Mi Xiaoran can still feel happy?
Even if he knew that he was not doing as well as Ning Weimin, he would not be able to gain an advantage in a "head-to-head contest".
Then she also wanted to find trouble and squeeze on this kid, so she couldn't let him get too proud.
In the first two days, the neighbors in No. 2 Courtyard gathered together, and Ning Weimin was the host. There were many elders, so she naturally couldn't be arrogant during the dinner.
But today is different. We are all old colleagues sitting together, and women have an absolute advantage.
As men, Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui are inherently disadvantaged groups.
What's more, it's the home venue where she comes to treat guests, so what is she afraid of?
No, this matter right now is obviously a good one to hold on to and make a fuss about.
"Zhang Shihui, what you said is wrong. You are late. You can have any reason, but the reasons you just mentioned are not valid. It is completely untenable and shows no sincerity. You have to say it yourself, this is nonsense! All of us
No one is lucky enough to come here by car, and no one has food. You are the only one who has a car to ride, but you are later than everyone else? This is to let you pass, but it doesn't really allow you to treat us all like fools.
No? No, the fine will be doubled! Even you will have to drink wine as a fine!"
This time, the wind direction suddenly changed.
Many people think what Mi Xiaoran said makes sense, and since he is also short-tongued, he is naturally more emotionally biased.
Some people who are confused when things happen are particularly easy to be incited and immediately agree with them.
As a result, not only was Ning Weimin being roasted on the fire before his eyes, but Zhang Shihui also became embarrassed.
Because no matter how drunk he is, even if he drove here today, he can't drink.
If you are drunk, you are treating human life as a joke, otherwise the car will have to stay here all night.
If he doesn't drink, he will indeed be a little arrogant, seem insincere, and not manly enough.
So for a while, Zhang Shihui regretted it and felt that she was too stupid and deserved to be beaten.
He had no other choice but to wink at Liu Weijing and ask his wife for help, hoping that Liu Weijing would intercede on their behalf.
Unexpectedly, even this move was not hidden from Mi Xiaoran's eyes. She actually took the lead and blocked Liu Weijing's mouth with a joke.
"Weijing, please don't plead for these two men. Don't stand against our female compatriots. Today I just want to see if they are real men and whether these two big managers have the courage to face their own problems."
Responsible for mistakes! Do you have the ability to bear the consequences for the things you have done wrong? If you really can't drink, then admit that you are not a man. We will not force them, right? Sisters."
There is really something in the words, and every word is heartbreaking.
After saying this, it really caused a few loud laughs and unreasonable echoes.
Not only did Zhang Shihui raise his eyebrows, he realized that Mi Xiaoran had come with bad intentions and seemed to be deliberately making things difficult.
Even Huang Suqin and Liu Weijie also thought of the entangled affairs between Ning Weimin and Mi Xiaoran in the past.
I couldn't help but suspect that Mi Xiaoran was using the topic to deliberately embarrass Ning Weimin.
It's a pity that understanding it doesn't mean there is a good solution, especially in front of Zhao Hanyu.
Even though Huang Suqin didn't want to see them arguing and wanted to make peace, she still felt like she couldn't do anything.
How to speak?
Don't bring up the past and cause new troubles.
Why is this Mi Xiaoran so small-minded?
However, even in this situation that seemed to have reached a dead end, Ning Weimin still remained calm and calm.
Although he suddenly realized that he seemed to have fallen into a trap today, Mi Xiaoran still had a long-standing grudge against him.
But after all, he is a master of communication and has a clear conscience.
Then, with only one hand, he calmly and skillfully solved the problem in front of him.
"Penalty! Punishment! You really deserve to be punished! What Xiaoran said makes sense. No matter what, being late is wrong, let alone us coming in a car. No matter what the reason is, there is no way to defend yourself."
Ning Weimin first agreed with Mi Xiaoran's words, then made another twist and raised the leather bag in his hand.
"But, Zhang Shihui is really not allowed to drink while driving today. As for me, I haven't seen the big guys yet, and I really want to have a good chat with you. If everyone toasts a glass of wine, I guess I will have to go back to bed directly after drinking.
Okay. Is this good? Let me give you an alternative. I originally prepared a small gift for each of you today, but now I will take it out and distribute it to everyone. Even if Zhang Shihui and I have lost the merit, okay?
?”
Ning Weimin's move was unexpected by everyone.
When he said this, Zhang Shihui's eyes immediately lit up.
He also remembered that this time was coming and became excited, and quickly agreed.
"That's right, we also brought gifts for everyone. Is that okay?"
I heard that there are still gifts available, which makes these women unhappy.
Let alone taking advantage of one's nature, let's just talk about it from an emotional point of view.
The fact that Ning Weimin can be so generous and still think about them is enough to touch people's hearts.
As a result, the atmosphere at the scene eased and the wind direction changed again. As expected, many people loosened their stance and began to turn towards Ning Weimin again.
"Hey, hey, I say, sisters, sisters, please be patient and don't be impatient yet. In my opinion, we still have to take a look at the gift first and then decide whether it is a good thing or not. Gift giving
It also pays attention to sincerity. Everyone has to see what the gift is, whether they are satisfied or dissatisfied, and then decide whether they should be spared?"
Mi Xiaoran certainly didn't want to see Ning Weimin take the initiative and win people's hearts, so she couldn't help but stand up and use her last efforts to block everyone's decision.
When she saw that Ning Weimin's wallet was not big, she knew that it was not a worthy gift, and she even shouted words that did not hesitate to incite class hatred.
"Sisters, can we have some backbone? Big managers like them who work in foreign companies are already masters. They can't just give us some worthless gadgets and just bribe us. Then we can
Is it too worthless?”
It's a pity that although her words accurately targeted people's hearts and her analysis was accurate, they did have a certain depressing effect.
But the one she was fighting against was Ning Weimin, the illegitimate son of God.
Her little tricks may be effective for ordinary people, but they are not enough for a superman who can fully grasp the pulse of the times.
Ning Weimin didn't bother to argue with her, he just opened his purse with a smile and took out stacks of small boxes.
Facing every colleague present, he said politely, "It is indeed a small gift, a little hard to get. But I think everyone will like it..."
Then Zhang Shihui and Liu Weijing helped distribute it to everyone present.
Sure enough, as soon as the first person took the gift with his hand, shouts of surprise began to flow out of control and spread in the private room.
In fact, even one table of people was not fully served, and the order of the three tables in the entire private room was chaotic.
Everyone was in high spirits and wanted to surround Ning Weimin, Zhang Shihui and Liu Weijing.
Even supervisor Huang Suqin, who is known for his stability, is no exception.
"Feixiang! Feixiang! It's still the original!"
"Really? Oh my God, it's true! It's really Feixiang! It's really the original version!"
"Wow, that's great! How did you get it? I like it, of course I do!"
"Ah, I am so happy! How is this possible? I am not dreaming, am I?"
"Weimin, you are so awesome! How can this be considered a small gift? I heard that a plate is sold for ten yuan! You can't even buy it if you want."
"That's right, just this gift from you! I admire you so much! I can drink your wine for you!"
Yes, what Ning Weimin sent was none other than the tapes that were originally backlogged in his hands.
The music album originally released by Pacific Records - "Songs Across the Four Seas".
Ever since Fei Xiang became famous in the Spring Festival Gala, his first mainland album, which had long been judged to be a failure, has made a comeback.
The existing goods in the hands of Ning Weimin and the goods in the hands of Zhao Changqing will not be enough to sell once they are spread out to the whole country.
Even though Feixiang has only been popular for a week, major audio and video stores in Beijing have already sold out the few hundred thousand copies in stock.
This made Ning Weimin regret it. He didn't have a clue. He knew clearly about this situation, but he forgot to make a calendar for Fei Xiang.
Otherwise, it could be sold for tens of millions.
Nowadays, if anyone in the entire capital still has Feixiang's tape, no one else except Ning Weimin.
He kept five hundred plates not for sale, but for traveling around during the Spring Festival and giving them out as gifts to gain favor.
Look, what does it mean to be careful and sail the ship for thousands of years?
No, Mi Xiaoran's deliberate attempt to make things difficult was a direct blow to him!
Who let him have the treasure card Feixiang in his hand? He can easily win the favor of any woman.
PS: It seems that I have yang again and I have been sick for two days. I just want to ask if you are satisfied or not?
Everyone, please take care of yourself.
Warning in advance, as long as I maintain my current feeling and it's not serious, I can still get better.
