Since he said it was a common meal, Zhou Dongsheng simply corrected his attitude as a junior and simply regarded this matter as a visit to a friend's house for dinner.
After all, Zhou Dongsheng has always known how much he weighs, no matter how much he pays attention to it or spends time preparing...
In front of these old foxes who have experienced the great changes of the times and stand at the top of the waves, these are all just tricks.
Rather than self-defeating, it is better to treat people with sincerity. Sincerity is the best bridge between people. This is also what Zhou Dongsheng has learned from his experience after dealing with people like Duan Lao and Ding Sanshi.
Of course, that's what they say, but since you have to visit your home and be a guest, you must abide by the minimum etiquette.
It is obviously not appropriate to be empty-handed, and as a junior, there is no need to prepare expensive gifts, let alone this.
If you want to choose, you just have to choose from the three major categories of gifts. Naturally, these three categories are tobacco, wine, and tea, which are definitely the best choices for Tiger Balm.
Zhou Dongsheng casually selected two cans of exquisite tea as souvenirs. Compared with tobacco and alcohol, tea is undoubtedly more suitable for his junior status, and the value is secondary.
It's enough to be sincere and not rude. After all, you are not asking for help.
As night fell, Zhou Dongsheng drove alone and came to a quiet villa area surrounded by greenery. He was allowed to go with him after asking for strict security instructions.
As we drove in, except for the street lights, several single-family villas at a certain distance between the buildings were all dark. It was unclear whether no one was staying or if no one was home.
Finally, they stopped in front of a brightly lit single-family villa, which looked "ordinary" on the outside, so much so that Zhou Dongsheng had some doubts as to whether he had gone to the wrong place.
But looking around, among the few villas in the entire villa area, this one had the lights on, and the security guard at the door had already been greeted...
Although the single-family villas in the Magic City are enough to be called top-level luxury homes for most people, compared with the richest man in China, they are still a bit too cheap.
Is this the legendary saying that "a wealth of millions is no more than three meals a day, and a mansion of thousands is no more than seven feet of sleep"?
It is reasonable to think this way. After all, for such a real estate tycoon, there are countless houses all over the country, and he can live wherever he wants.
In addition to those well-known mansions, there are probably some ordinary and conventional residences. The cunning rabbit has three caves, let alone a person like this.
Zhou Dongsheng had small thoughts swirling in his heart. At the same time, Principal Wang's figure had appeared at the door of the single-family villa.
When he saw Zhou Dongsheng, he looked like he had seen a savior, and he immediately stepped forward with a smile on his face.
"You're finally here! I was so suffocated inside that I just came out to take a breath." Principal Wang's sullen look was something Zhou Dongsheng had never seen before.
"Sure enough, it's my son who met me, and everything is brought down!" Zhou Dongsheng joked casually, and then casually looked around at the empty surroundings, and suddenly a sense of enlightenment arose in his heart.
"Who lives here?" In order to verify his conjecture, Zhou Dongsheng asked pretending to be unintentional.
"Oh, this is here. It was just built not long ago and it hasn't been officially put up for sale yet. Let's go and talk inside." After saying that, Principal Wang took the lead and walked inside.
The understatement revealed a very simple and unpretentious answer. This large villa area belongs to other people. Isn't this just like the thousands of Guangsha in front of us?
Sure enough, he was still out of his league. Zhou Dongsheng smiled sarcastically and followed Principal Wang into the villa gate.
"Xiao Zhou is here, please come in quickly." Before Zhou Dongsheng could look around, a middle-aged woman with a noble face and generous temperament appeared in front of her.
Although he looked unfamiliar, Zhou Dongsheng still did not dare to neglect, and said hello with a smile: "Hello, aunt, it's my first time to come to the door to bother you, so it's not respectful at all."
"Hey, I'm just here to have a casual meal, why are you so polite?" The middle-aged woman pretended to be a hostess and introduced Zhou Dongsheng in with a smile, but her eyes looked at Zhou Dongsheng without any trace.
Coming to the living room, there is a simple and elegant Chinese decoration and a set of heavy and elegant solid wood furniture, which is traditional yet solemn.
And a thin, plainly dressed old man was sitting there, with a stooped figure. At first glance, he looked ordinary, and there was no so-called imposing and oppressive feeling.
However, when he raised his head, he saw a big face with a full sky and a round earth pavilion, and the aura of wealth written all over it, which made Zhou Dongsheng sincerely feel a little pressure.
Even Principal Wang, who escaped outside and was not afraid of anything, was like a mouse seeing a cat, and he shouted in a polite voice, "Dad!"
Usually playing and making trouble, Zhou Dongsheng didn't dare to agree to the "Dad" in a joking manner, but just said "Hello, uncle" honestly.
"Dongsheng is here, sit down. I heard that you like to drink tea. How about you try this uncle's tea?" Lao Wang greeted with a kind face and a slight smile.
"Well, Uncle, I'm not good at drinking, but I'm good at drinking tea." Zhou Dongsheng felt relieved and stopped thinking about it. He didn't care what other people thought. He was barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes.
After putting down the burden, my thoughts became clearer. When I sat down happily and picked up the tea cup, my nose was immediately filled with aroma. After a cup of tea soup, the fragrance lingered on my lips and teeth, leaving endless aftertaste.
"Good tea!" Zhou Dongsheng gave a thumbs up and praised. As for what's good about it, Zhou Dongsheng couldn't tell for a while. Anyway, it just melts in the mouth.
Lao Wang smiled and said nothing, and looked at Zhou Dongsheng with interest. After understanding the idea, Zhou Dongsheng did not show any timidity, but instead turned from passive to active.
"Uncle, you have a big business and a busy career. There must be endless chores to deal with every day. To be honest, when I heard Principal Wang say that my uncle invited me to dinner, I was flattered and a little puzzled..."
"Although I am somewhat famous now and have a small fortune at the same time, after thinking about it, I still don't think I can disturb someone like my uncle... After all, I have something to ask for from you. People who want to see you can line up hundreds of meters away...
…”
Zhou Dongsheng was the first to open up the conversation and speak his thoughts in an orderly manner. This calm humor made it easier to win favor.
Principal Wang on the side couldn't help laughing, and Lao Wang, who was sitting in the chair, even smiled, "Oh? In your opinion, why did I take the initiative to invite you?"
"Of course it's impossible to do something with me. I guess it's because of Principal Wang." Zhou Dongsheng said very bachelorly.
This is the only answer Zhou Dongsheng can think of. After all, isn't the only possible intersection between the two the key figure Principal Wang?
After all, the more powerful a person is, the more capable he is, and the more he is inclined to have an overview of the overall situation and the pleasure of controlling everything.
Ordinary people hate unplanned variables, but perhaps the same is true for such big bosses.
Although variables are variables because they are uncontrollable, compared to ordinary people who are powerless, bosses will obviously not let it go and let it develop.
Therefore, the vast majority of the children of the top wealthy people receive all-round protection, and it is basically difficult for ordinary people to learn relevant information.
This may also be due to Li Chao's lessons learned.
Principal Wang is obviously an uncharacteristic exception. Not only is he well known to everyone, but he also fulfills most of the stereotypes that the general public has about the rich second generation.
For such an unusual person, Zhou Dongsheng would naturally not believe it if Lao Wang didn't pay any attention to his only son and just let him do whatever he wanted.
Either there are more comprehensive protection measures in place secretly, or... Lao Wang has a back-up plan and is hiding a secret.
As for Principal Wang on the surface, it doesn't matter how much noise he makes. On the contrary, the bigger the noise, the better.
And the reason why he appears here may be that he triggered certain conditions of the former. This is Zhou Dongsheng's conjecture.
As for the latter, if it is the latter, then there is no need for Zhou Dongsheng to appear here, right?
