His great-great-grandfather had already crossed the ocean to the United States in the late Qing Dynasty and was one of the many Chinese workers who participated in the construction of the American Pacific Railway.
From that generation on, the Lu family relied on the hard-working and hard-working Chinese people to take root in the United States.
At the earliest, the ancestor of the Lu family who went to the United States as a Chinese worker was still at the bottom of American society at that time.
Now, the Lu family has tens of billions of dollars in property in the United States, and can be regarded as a model of Chinese struggle.
At the same time, the Lu family also carried forward the characteristics of a generation of businessmen on the southeastern coast of China and were very keen on uniting compatriots and developing as a team.
Therefore, decades ago, Lu Sinian's great-grandfather founded the New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce. Gradually, this chamber of commerce has become one of the largest Chinese chambers of commerce in the United States.
After Lu Sinian took the position of president of the New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce, he devoted himself to developing the New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce into a national Chinese chamber of commerce. Through his continuous communication and mediation with Chinese chambers of commerce in various places, most Chinese chambers of commerce in the United States were interested in
The chamber of commerce merged and was renamed the National Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
Lu Sinian is also striving to become the first president of the National Chinese Chamber of Commerce after the merger.
However, there are two Chinese Chambers of Commerce, whose strength is no worse than that of the New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce. These two Chinese chambers of commerce are the Los Angeles Chinese Chamber of Commerce and the Chicago Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
How to compete with the presidents of these two Chinese chambers of commerce has been a headache for Lu Sinian recently.
Therefore, he has been thinking of ways, hoping to dare to let the New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce show more face before the merger of the chambers of commerce, and then increase its influence, so that he can gain an advantage over the other two presidents.
It is precisely because of this that the executive vice president of the New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce specifically assigned the cooperation matters of Gu Qiuyi's concert to the New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce, which made Lu Sinian overjoyed.
Just when he was impatient and eagerly waiting for Gu Qiuyi to go to the United States, he did not expect that Fei Haoyang, the eldest young master of the Fei family, would take the initiative to find him.
In the United States, there are two big Chinese families that all Chinese business associations are trying to win over. In addition to the world's top Chinese family Anji, the other one is the Fei family.
Although the strength of the Fei family is far less than that of the An family, it is still much stronger than other Chinese families in North America. The An family disdained to participate in this kind of chamber of commerce, so the Fei family followed suit and became reserved.
Lu Sinian had repeatedly wanted to invite Fei Haoyang's father, Fei Xuebin, to dinner several times before, but Fei Xuebin never gave him the honor.
Now, Fei Haoyang came to visit on his own initiative. Lu Sinian was naturally excited beyond words and respectfully invited the young Fei Haoyang to his office.
As soon as he arrived at the office, he said diligently: "Oh, I didn't know Mr. Fei was here today, so I'm really sorry for the delay. Mr. Fei condescended to come to our New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce, which really makes our chamber of commerce prosperous.
ah!"
As he spoke, he introduced himself: "Master Fei, I am Lu Sinian, the president of the New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce!"
Fei Haoyang was very pleased with this compliment. He smiled slightly and said, "President Lu, I heard that our New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce is the largest Chinese chamber of commerce in the United States. President Lu must have contributed a lot to this!"
Lu Sinian said quickly: "Oh, Mr. Fei is so ridiculous... The New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce has a history of several decades, and the Chamber of Commerce is able to achieve what it is today thanks to the previous presidents."
After saying that, Lu Sinian asked carefully: "Master Fei, I wonder why you came here today?"
Fei Haoyang smiled slightly and said arrogantly: "I came to you because I want to cooperate with your New York Chinese Chamber of Commerce. If the cooperation is pleasant, I can consider representing the Fei family and officially join your Chamber of Commerce!"
