"Heh, President Su is here. This is the contract.”Xiao Qingshuang smiled and handed the contract to Su Mengchen.
"Yes." Su Mengchen took the contract and read it carefully.
This was a collaboration between two giant companies. There could not be the slightest mistake. Otherwise, it would cause huge losses to both companies.
Just as Su Mengchen was reading the contract, the young man who came in with her walked up to Xiao Qingshuang and extended his hand.""Hello, President Xiao. My name is Lu Tianhang. Nice to meet you.”
"Xiao Qingshuang." Xiao Qingshuang shook the young man's hand and said indifferently.
"I just came to Zhonghai City, so I'm not familiar with this place. President Xiao, when are you free? Can you show me around Zhonghai City?”Lu Tianhang said politely, showing his gentlemanly demeanor.
Although Xiao Qingshuang was usually cold, she had to rely on Su Mengchen to cooperate with the Su Family Organization. Lu Tianhang was with Su Mengchen just now, and their relationship was obviously not ordinary. It was not wise to offend Lu Tianhang at this time.
Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Xiao Qingshuang gave up the idea of rejecting Lu Tianhang. She smiled and said,""Sure. After I'm done with the collaboration with the Smith Corporation, I'll be the host and bring you around Zhonghai City.”
"President Xiao is indeed a straightforward person.”Lu Tianhang said, his face full of joy.
Zhao Bao glanced at Lu Tianhang and was a little unhappy. Although he was only protecting Xiao Qingshuang because of his promise to the old man, Zhao Bao's feelings for this cold CEO were a little complicated after spending time with her for the past few days.
At least, seeing that Xiao Qingshuang did not reject Lu Tianhang, Zhao Bao was in a bad mood.
At this time, Su Mengchen had also finished reading the contract that Xiao Qingshuang had drafted. He signed the contract and kept one copy for himself. He handed the other copy to Xiao Qingshuang and said,""President Xiao, there's nothing wrong with the contract. I've already signed it. I've made a slight change to the Smith Corporation's request to temporarily invest five million yuan into Hundred Flowers. Moreover, it would be transferred to his account this afternoon.”
"Thank you so much, President Su. Don't worry, our company won't let you down.”Xiao Qingshuang said excitedly.
Recently, due to Yao Guoxiong and the others making things difficult for them, Hundred Flowers Company's capital chain was broken, and its stock price on the stock market fell sharply. If this continued, she didn't know how many days she could last.
However, with the injection of 50 million yuan from the Smith Corporation, not only could she stabilize the stock price, but she could also raise it by a lot.
"I believe I won't misjudge you," said Su Mengchen.”
As he spoke, Su Mengchen looked at Zhao Bao meaningfully. After chatting for a while, Su Mengchen's phone suddenly rang. After answering the call, Su Mengchen said,""President Xiao, my friend just called and said that there's an art exhibition. Are you interested in going with me?”
"Of course I'm interested." Xiao Qingshuang said. She had just established such a good partnership with the Su Family Organization, so she was naturally embarrassed to reject Su Mengchen's invitation.
Zhao Bao didn't want to attend such a boring exhibition, but since Xiao Qingshuang had already agreed, it wouldn't make sense if he didn't go.
As for Lu Tianhang, his eyes never left Xiao Qingshuang. When he heard Su Mengchen mention the art exhibition, his eyes lit up and he quickly said,""Mengchen, I'm also very interested in the art exhibition. Can I go with you?”
"Heh, if Young Master Lu wants to go, how would I dare to refuse?”Su Mengchen said with a smile, but then looked at Zhao Bao with a meaningful look.
While Su Mengchen was arranging the company's matters, Zhao Bao whispered to Xiao Qingshuang,""President Xiao, I'm not interested in the art exhibition. Can I go back to the company first?”
Xiao Qingshuang smiled at Bao Zhao and whispered,""If you want to go back to the company to settle your salary, go ahead.”
"Ahem, I understand." Zhao Bao coughed dryly and looked helpless.
After settling the company matters, Su Mengchen drove Xiao Qingshuang, Lu Tianhang, and Zhao Bao to the art exhibition.
Actually, the art exhibition that Su Mengchen was talking about was a small private exhibition. It was a small art exhibition organized by a rich playboy in his circle of friends who had bought some valuable antiques, calligraphy, paintings, jade, and other treasures overseas. In order to show off in his circle of friends, they organized a small art exhibition.
Lijiang Famous Garden.
It was a high-class private club in Zhonghai City. It was also the venue of the art exhibition that Su Mengchen had mentioned.
When Su Mengchen, Xiao Qingshuang, and Zhao Bao arrived, there were already a lot of people here. They were all noble ladies from Zhonghai City. Walking into the hall of the club, he saw many objects being visited. Some noble ladies were admiring them.
In the hall, there were mainly some porcelain, jade, statues, and other artworks. Walking along the hall was a corridor for tasting. There were all kinds of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls of the corridor. After passing through the corridor, they arrived at another hall. There were some small items inside, such as jade pendants, copper coins, and luminous pearls.
"This is a piece of blue and white porcelain, worth at least five million.”
"This is a bronze Guanyin from the Ming Dynasty. The market price is around one million.”
"Wow, this painting was created by Daoist Wu in his later years. It's very precious, worth at least tens of millions.”
"This jade pendant was actually worn by Emperor Kangxi during the Qing Dynasty.”
……
The various things inside made many noble ladies marvel.
Even though Xiao Qingshuang was rich, it was her first time seeing so many precious items. All the items here added up to at least 200 million yuan. Xiao Qingshuang couldn't help but sigh at the gap between her and Su Mengchen.
Su Mengchen looked indifferent, as if she didn't care about these items. Lu Tianhang didn't care much about these treasures either, but he seemed to be very knowledgeable about them. Along the way, he talked non-stop, introducing one treasure after another to Xiao Qingshuang.
"Of all the treasures here, this painting of Daoist Wu's late years is the most precious. Daoist Wu was known as the Art Saint. His painting could be sold for at least 15 million yuan on the market.”Lu Tianhang pointed at a landscape painting at the side and spoke with assurance, like a knowledgeable scholar.
Xiao Qingshuang smiled." I'm not good at antiques, calligraphy, and painting. But I've learned a lot from what you've said, Young Master Lu."”
Lu Tianhang immediately smiled happily after receiving Xiao Qingshuang's praise. His smug look made Zhao Bao, who was beside him, very unhappy.
"Tsk!"
Zhao Bao looked at Lu Tianhang unhappily. Although this guy did not provoke him, he just felt that Lu Tianhang was not a good person. Su Mengchen smiled faintly. She didn't seem to mind Lu Tianhang fawning over Xiao Qingshuang.
"Zhao Bao, what are you cutting?" Xiao Qingshuang rolled her eyes.
"President Xiao, don't you feel bored?" Zhao Bao asked. Let's go back to the company? President Su won't mind."
Lu Tianhang had never taken Zhao Bao seriously, so he had never had any conflict with Zhao Bao. However, Zhao Bao actually wanted Xiao Qingshuang to leave, which made him unhappy. He felt that he had already left a good impression on Xiao Qingshuang with his show-off. Now was the time to strike while the iron was hot, so he certainly couldn't hope that Zhao Bao would ask Xiao Qingshuang to leave.
"President Xiao, Assistant Zhao probably doesn't know much about antiques and calligraphy, so he's bored. Just like how farmers found golf boring, ordinary people would not understand the games and self-cultivation of nobles.”
Lu Tianhang said. His words were ruthlessly belittling Zhao Bao and raising his own status.
Of course, what he said made sense. The migrant workers were busy making a living tomorrow. How could they be in the mood to play golf? However, his self-righteous and arrogant attitude was very disgusting. Even Su Mengchen, who had been silent all this while, could not help but frown.
"That's true." Xiao Qingshuang forced a smile and nodded. Although she didn't like Lu Tianhang's attitude, she was worried about Su Mengchen and didn't want to ruin their relationship.
"Bullsh * t, you think you're very knowledgeable, don't you?”Zhao Bao couldn't stand people who showed off their intelligence in front of him the most. He said coldly,"Do you think Dao Zi Wu's painting is the most valuable? How stupid are you? Zhang Daqian's Yunquan Temple was at least ten million more expensive than Daoist Wu's painting.”
When Lu Tianhang heard this, he said disdainfully,"Zhang Daqian's painting is 10 million more expensive than Wu Daozi's? Do you think it's possible?"
Zhao Bao said," Zhang Daqian is indeed not as good as Daoist Wu. However, there are many flaws in Daoist Wu's painting. Moreover, Daoist Wu is best at Buddhas, ghosts, and people. This is a landscape painting. It was also for this reason that the value of this painting was around 15 million. However, Zhang Daqian's Yunquan Ancient Temple was different. It was Zhang Daqian's masterpiece and could definitely fetch 25 million yuan in the market.”
In an instant, Zhao Bao's aura changed. He was like a knowledgeable scholar, speaking with confidence and assurance. Every word he said was powerful.
"Hmph, you're talking nonsense." Lu Tianhang snorted coldly, and his face was a little red.
"He's not lying. This painting of Zhang Daqian's Yunquan Temple is indeed worth 25 million. And that painting of Daoist Wu was only sold for 13 million.”
At this moment, a young man in a white suit walked over from the crowd and said to Lu Tianhang.
Seeing the man in the white suit, Su Mengchen quickly said,""Young Master Gu, these are my friends. I brought them to your exhibition. I didn't tell you in advance, so don't mind.”
"Heh, even if you bring a hundred friends to my exhibition, I'll accept them all.”The man in the white suit said with a smile.
"Young Master Gu, let me introduce you to my friends." Su Mengchen smiled and said.”
