Chapter 239: Recruiting Chen Yan for his own use...?
Chen Yan nodded at him, then stepped on the accelerator and left the closed section of road.
After passing this roadblock, we are close to He’s Manor.
As the lights of the manor got closer, Chen Yan couldn't help but think of the scene just now.
Although this place is already a "private territory", the direct closure of the road also shows the power of the He family in Qindao. They are indeed the richest people in Qindao.
Chen Yan recalled the information about the He family.
Unlike the Zhao family , the He family did not name their group after their surnames. Their group is called the Wutong Group.
It is said that the name was given because the founder of the He family was named He Mu.
According to the rumors circulating in Qindao, this is a family ambition with multiple echoes and hidden meanings.
"What tree?"
"Wutong."
As for what is living on the phoenix tree, there is no need to tell you...
Compared with the Zhao Group, the He family has been around for quite a while, having gone through three generations and taking root in Qindao. Their main business is home appliances.
Air conditioner, refrigerator, color TV, microwave oven, etc.
As long as it's an appliance, they make it.
At first, they bought foreign patents, and later transformed to develop their own. After so many years of deep cultivation in the home appliance industry, they are considered the leader in the home appliance industry in the whole country.
Moreover, their home appliances are not only sold domestically.
With the support of the government, the He family was one of the first companies to go overseas, taking advantage of the country's cheap labor force and opening up to the outside world. And they made a lot of money.
In addition to earning a large amount of foreign exchange for the country, it also became the key to the rise of the He family.
This is also the reason why He Mengxue, the successor of the He family, works in the Foreign Trade Department.
After all, these are the most important departments of the entire group.
While thinking, Chen Yan came to He's manor.
After parking the car at the door and throwing the car keys to the doorman, Chen Yan straightened his clothes and strode into the He’s Manor.
Before passing the roadblock, Chen Yan had already called Qin Ming, so Qin Ming was waiting for Chen Yan at the entrance of the hall.
Seeing Chen Yan coming, he came up to him with a smile and said, "Brother Chen, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Chen Yan smiled and said, "I was just stopped and the invitation letter was checked."
Qin Ming suddenly realized, "No wonder."
"The people attending this banquet are all somewhat important, so the security is much tighter."
While Qin Ming was explaining to Chen Yan, he began to take Chen Yan to the banquet hall.
It was not as magnificent as I had imagined, nor as grand as I had imagined. It was just a normal banquet hall, looking elegant and refined, with various drinks and cakes placed in the middle and on both sides.
At this time, there were already quite a few young men and women in the banquet hall, chatting in groups of three or four.
Qin Ming knew the purpose of Chen Yan's visit today, so after a short rest with Chen Yan, he took Chen Yan to walk around the hall and get to know these second-generations one by one.
I have to say that Qin Ming is indeed very versatile. He seems to have a good relationship with everyone and can chat with them.
When introducing him, Qin Ming also tried to keep Chen Yan's identity vague, saying only that he was a friend of his. But from his respectful behavior, everyone could sense that Chen Yan's identity was extraordinary.
So after walking around, many people's eyes fell on Chen Yan. Occasionally, some people were curious about Chen Yan and also discussed Chen Yan.
"Who is that handsome guy?"
"I don't know, but seeing how concerned Qin Xiaoming is, he must be someone of great status."
"Yes. Qin Ming is the smartest guy. I've never seen him treat anyone like this."
"Yeah yeah."
After meeting these people, Chen Yan had a rough idea of the level of this banquet. They were all descendants of the top companies and groups in Qindao, and each of them represented a great force.
Among them, the most important are the He family.
Chen Yan met several people related to the He family at this banquet.
For example, the daughter of Qindao’s richest man He Ruifeng: He Mengxue.
For example, He Ruifeng’s nephew and niece.
They are all some of the more outstanding people of this generation in the He family.
After taking Chen Yan around, Qin Ming whispered, "Brother Chen, this time I just want to make myself familiar."
"If you want to cooperate with a company in the future, just tell me directly. Then I will take them to have a meal with you alone. We can talk at the dinner table."
"In big bureaus like this, people know each other. Only in small bureaus do people really discuss business."
Chen Yan nodded, agreeing with what Qin Ming said.
Then, Qin Ming looked around the banquet hall, quietly touched Chen Yan, and asked, "Brother Chen, you just met my sister, how did you feel?"
Chen Yan glanced at him and recalled the scene when he met He Mengxue just now.
I have to say, He Mengxue really made Chen Yan see what a lady from a noble family is.
Every move she makes is elegant and dignified, her smile is confident, and her manners are graceful.
It gives people a slight sense of distance, but does not make people feel out of reach.
And when chatting, she can reveal her deep cultivation and can bring people closer with just a few words.
After just the first contact, Chen Yan felt that this woman was different from everyone he knew.
Not easy to deal with.
And he exudes a sense of superiority and confidence from the bottom of his heart.
She looks like a real darling of heaven.
Is it really not dangerous to cooperate with such a person?
Chen Yan was a little hesitant...
After all, Qin Ming is half the host, so it is impossible for him to stay with Chen Yan all the time.
So after he finished accompanying Chen Yan, he apologized and went to entertain other guests.
Chen Yan was holding a glass of champagne, drinking it in the corner while calmly recalling the people Qin Ming had just introduced him to.
Although Qindao is a coastal city, it is located in the north, so there are not many fashion-related companies. I only met two people during the whole banquet, one is a jewelry company and the other is a clothing company.
The brand is only considered second-tier in the country, and its market value is not that high, only a few billion.
This made Chen Yan a little disappointed.
He didn't even have the desire to know her...
He felt that tonight's banquet was not as useful as he had imagined.
While Chen Yan was standing there thinking alone, some people who had been interested in Chen Yan before came over one by one and chatted with Chen Yan.
The content of the chat was all tentative.
For example, ask where Chen Yan is from, what his family does, and how he met Qin Ming.
Chen Yan was too lazy to lie, so he just told the truth.
Just say that you are from Qindao and your family doesn't do anything.
He himself is in the film, television and gaming business.
Maybe because Chen Yan didn't brag, the few people who came to meet him were a little disappointed.
I think Chen Yan might be able to come to this party just because he has a good relationship with Qin Ming.
Although for Qin Ming's sake, he added Chen Yan on WeChat, left his contact information, and said that they would hang out together when they had time, but it looked like it was just a polite gesture.
Chen Yan didn't really care about these people's indifference.
After all, instead of having time to flatter these people, it would be better to play with mud with Boss Qiaoqiao!
As more and more people came to get to know Chen Yan, most of the people at the banquet gradually learned about Chen Yan's identity.
“So you’re the one who started your own business.”
"Yes. I saw Qin Ming was so enthusiastic about him before, and I thought his family had a powerful background."
"Yeah. I think so, too."
"Although he is young and promising, he is indeed not as good as us."
"I guess Qin Ming has won over his younger brothers one by one, so he brought them out to see the world. Hehe."
"It's possible."
And these discussions inevitably reached He Mengxue's ears.
Hearing that the identity of the person she had been paying attention to was so simple, He Mengxue looked at Chen Yan who was chatting with a rich girl with a little surprise.
She was not like these rich kids who looked down on Chen Yan.
She knew it because of her younger brother.
Qin Ming has no other skills except that he can talk and recognize people.
Anyone who is valued by him must not be a simple person.
At first, He Mengxue thought that Chen Yan was a descendant of a large family or a large conglomerate, and Qin Ming valued his power.
But now…
A young talent who started from scratch?
It's quite interesting.
He Mengxue's beautiful eyes stayed on Chen Yan for a while...
"I don't know if I can recruit him into my team..."
'Who knows, it might help my career develop further...'
'We can have a good chat with him some other day.'
…
Time passed quickly, and soon it was 6 o'clock in the evening.
As the six o'clock clock struck, a convoy slowly drove into the He's Manor.
The entire convoy looked huge, with a black extended Lincoln followed by a dozen black business sedans.
The people at the banquet were also notified and came to the gate of the manor one after another.
At this time, there were many middle-aged men at the gate of the manor, who seemed to be the parents of these rich children. The leader was a middle-aged man who looked vaguely like He Mengxue.
He has a square face, walks like a dragon or a tiger, and is intimidating without even getting angry. He stands at the front of the crowd.
He brought these wealthy people and second-generation people behind him to welcome the distinguished guests tonight: the father and daughter of the Zhao Group...
