After Lin Zhiming sat in the waiting area for a while, he stood up, put away his number plate, and walked out of the company.
At this time, Xiao Lin, who had disappeared for a long time, ran out from nowhere.
"Hey, Master Lin, why are you leaving? You will be here soon!" Xiao Lin said.
"What's your name?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Me? I'm just a nobody, so I don't need to worry about you." Xiao Lin said with a smile.
"Very good." Lin Zhiming smiled, patted Xiao Lin's shoulder and said, "You and I are the same family, and I will never forget you."
After saying that, Lin Zhiming turned around and walked out of the Lianfeng Express headquarters building.
"Tch!" Xiao Lin swept his shoulders and curled his lips disdainfully.
Lin Zhiming walked out of the Lianfeng Express headquarters building, then got into a car outside the building and left.
Not long after, Lin Zhiming's humiliation in the Lianfeng Express headquarters building quickly spread throughout the imperial capital.
For many people who were paying attention to the war between Lin Zhiming and Qingmudang, Lin Zhiming's decision to go to the Lianfeng Express headquarters was a bit too hasty.
By going to the Lin family's property without any advance preparation, do you really think you can intimidate others with your reputation as the head of the Lin family?
Qingmutang has been in business for so many years and has already firmly grasped the Lin family's property. Without their nod, no one in the Lin family's property would pay attention to Lin Zhiming, the head of the Lin family.
Many people felt that Lin Zhiming was too anxious and underestimated the enemy.
Such an incident completely crushed the prestige he had managed to establish with the success of the succession ceremony.
In the eyes of many people, this move was a big mistake for Lin Zhiming!
And Lin Zhiming seemed to know that he had made a wrong move, so after leaving the Lianfeng Express headquarters, Lin Zhiming returned to Lin's house and stayed behind closed doors, not even receiving the visiting guests.
It seemed that Lin Zhiming's self-confidence and self-esteem had been severely hit.
The next day, inside Lin's house.
Lin Zhiming suddenly received a strange phone call.
"Master, I am Wang Hui, CEO of Nanhuan Energy." said the other end of the phone.
"Nanhuan Energy?" Lin Zhiming raised his eyebrows.
Nanhuan Energy is also one of the five pillar industries of the Lin family. It is a leading domestic energy company with a market value of more than 100 billion. The actual controller of this company is the Fourth Elder Sun Bai.
"What do you want from me?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Master, I don't know if you are free. I would like to invite you to dinner tonight." Wang Hui said.
"Invite me to dinner? Are you asking me, or is Sun Bai asking me?" Lin Zhiming asked jokingly.
"I am the one who made the date with you, or you can say that it was Elder Sun who made the date with you." Wang Hui said on the other end of the phone.
"What did he ask me to do?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"In fact, Elder Sun has always thought that you are capable. If you can restrain yourself a little, Elder Sun is actually very willing to help you." Wang Hui said.
"Help me? Is he crazy? I said I would destroy Qingmudang with my own hands, how can he help me?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Qingmu Hall does not mean that we are Elder Sun. Destroying Qingmu Hall does not mean that we have destroyed Elder Sun. Elder Sun asked me to convey a message to you. As long as you can make Nanhuan Energy and Lianfeng Express belong to Elder Sun in the future,
Then Elder Sun is willing to help you!" Wang Hui said.
"Oh?" Lin Zhiming raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems that Elder Sun's ambition is not small, sacrificing other people in Qingmu Hall in exchange for Nanhuan Energy and Lianfeng Express, cruel, really cruel."
"You also know that although each elder of Qingmutang controls an industry of the Lin family, due to some regulations of the Lin family, these industries do not fully belong to them. At the same time, they must also give a portion of the dividends from their own properties to the Lin family every year.
, This is unacceptable to them. Elder Sun knows that you are a person who will not be bound by rules, so if you are willing to break the rules and fulfill Elder Sun, it will be a good thing for both of you!" Wang
Hui said.
"What kind of cooperation method?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"I will discuss these details with you tomorrow. I have already arranged the restaurant. You can just come by then!" Wang Hui said.
"What restaurant?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Club on the Clouds!"
On the other side, Dong Jian also received a message from Zhao Yuemei.
"I made a reservation at a restaurant on the outskirts of the imperial capital, and that's where I'll have dinner tonight!"
"Which store?" Dong Jian asked.
"Club on the Clouds!"
The sun sets in the west.
The sun first dyed the sky red, and then swallowed up the redness, leaving only darkness.
Night is a good time to do bad things, because darkness can cover up many unclean things.
Lin Zhiming drove to the Yunshangjiuxiao Club alone.
This club is located on the outskirts of the imperial capital. It is a club specializing in Western food. It is said that it is even listed in the Michelin Guide.
Because it is located in the suburbs, this club is extremely private, and the club adopts a reservation system. You cannot enter this club without a reservation.
Lin Zhiming wore a pair of sunglasses and walked through a path to the door of the club.
There is a welcome desk at the door, and there is a very beautiful girl standing there.
"Sir, do you have a reservation?" the girl asked with a smile.
"V06." Lin Zhiming told the girl at the front desk the private room number reserved by Wang Hui.
"Okay! I'm a distinguished guest," the girl said to the waiter next to her.
Immediately, a waiter came forward and led Lin Zhiming into a nearby door.
Walking through a corridor dotted with stars, Lin Zhiming arrived at the hall.
The lighting in the hall is relatively dim, and in a long bar, a beautiful bartender is mixing drinks.
There are some people sitting in twos and threes in the hall, and further to the side are private rooms.
Lin Zhiming looked around, and then walked into the V06 box under the guidance of the waiter.
The box was very elegant, with a small round table in the middle that could seat about four people. There were several musicians holding classical instruments sitting against the wall, and they were playing soothing classical music.
A middle-aged man was sitting in front of the round table. Seeing Lin Zhiming appear, the middle-aged man stood up quickly, walked towards Lin Zhiming, and held Lin Zhiming's hand.
"Master, I finally met you in person. I have admired your name for a long time!" the middle-aged man said with a smile.
"I've heard people say your name too!" Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
The middle-aged man in front of him was Wang Hui, CEO of Nanhuan Energy.
"Master, you're welcome, come and sit down!" Wang Hui said.
Lin Zhiming nodded and sat down with Wang Hui.
"Isn't Sun Bai here?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Because it is not yet certain whether our cooperation can continue, Elder Sun first asked me to come over and talk to you. If we can really cooperate, then Elder Sun will come out to discuss with you in person! Patriarch, to be honest,
I personally think that your cooperation with Elder Sun is very necessary. Currently, the five elders have divided up the five pillar industries of the entire Lin family. No matter which industry it is, it is impossible for you to get it back with your own strength.
But if you have Elder Sun's help, the possibilities will be greatly increased, and all you need to pay is just two of the major industries! It's very cost-effective!" Wang Hui said.
"Well...it goes against the teachings of our ancestors after all!" Lin Zhiming said.
"If you really listened to the teachings of your ancestors, you wouldn't be separated from the elders of Qingmu Hall on the day of the taking over ceremony!" Wang Hui said.
"Elder Sun, are you at odds with the other elders?" Lin Zhiming suddenly asked.
"It can't be said that they don't agree. Everyone has their own ideas. People's appetite is a black hole, and no one will be satisfied with the status quo." Wang Hui said.
"Isn't he afraid that I will regret it later? If he really helps me deal with the other elders, and he will be the only one left at that time, what will he do even if I regret it?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"There will always be ways to check and balance you." Wang Hui said.
Lin Zhiming smiled and said, "I'm a little hungry, let's serve the food."
"Okay!" Wang Hui nodded and told the waiter to start serving the dishes.
Although there were only two people dining, Wang Hui still ordered a lot of dishes and opened several bottles of good wine.
The two chatted while eating, and the atmosphere was very good.
Wang Hui tried his best to persuade Lin Zhiming to agree to cooperate with Sun Bai, but Lin Zhiming did not make any promise on the spot. Firstly, he did not believe Sun Bai. Secondly, he had already had a collaborator.
This collaborator is naturally blind.
With a collaborator like the blind man, Lin Zhiming didn't need to find anyone else. Moreover, he didn't think Sun Bai would really be willing to cooperate with him.
In Lin Zhiming's eyes, today's meal was actually a conspiracy, and the biggest purpose of this conspiracy did not lie with him, but with the people outside the box.
Outside the box.
Dong Jian has also come to this club.
According to the information given by Zhao Yuemei, he sat in a seat by the window.
The scenery from this location is excellent, and you can see the twinkling stars in the sky.
Not long after, Zhao Yuemei walked into the restaurant.
Zhao Yuemei is not alone, there are Wang Xiaofei and Zhang Yi beside her.
The three of them walked to Dong Jian's side together.
"Mr. Dong!" Zhang Yi greeted Dong Jian warmly.
Seeing Zhang Yi, Dong Jian frowned slightly, then nodded in response.
"Dong Jian, this time you should believe that I really just want to treat you to a meal as a friend, right?" Zhao Yuemei said with a smile.
"I believe it." Dong Jian nodded.
"Mr. Dong, I heard that a few of us went to congratulate your boss two days ago and caused you some trouble, so I asked Yuemei to invite you out for a meal to express our apologies!" Zhang
Yi said.
"That's nothing." Dong Jian shook his head.
"Mom, Xiaofei, let's sit down!" Zhao Yuemei said.
Zhang Yi and Wang Xiaofei nodded and sat down.
Zhao Yuemei called the waiter and started to order the dishes. At this moment, Lin Zhiming opened the door of the private room and walked out of the private room, heading towards the entrance of the club.
