Chapter 656: Gold Medal of Immunity
Although Lu Yiming invested in Tengyu Logistics, he had no intention of taking any practical action. Even when Tengyu Logistics headquarters moved into the office building and held a ribbon-cutting ceremony, Lu Yiming only sent Li Yiwen as a representative to attend - the key point was that Li Yiwen left after attending the ceremony, as if he had nothing to do with Tengyu Logistics.
This made Xu Tengyu very depressed, and he couldn't help but call Lu Yiming to complain: "Boss Lu, you are now the second largest shareholder of the company, but no one in the company has ever met you. Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
Lu Yiming said confidently: "Look, what you said is not scientific! Those who work with their minds rule others, and those who work with their hands are ruled by others. I have already paid, and you actually want me to work hard? Isn't that a bit too much?"
Xu Tengyu thought about it for a while, but for a moment he couldn't figure out whether this was a problem or not. Then he suddenly had an idea and said, "Then you will let me work like a cow or a horse?"
Lu Yiming said calmly: "This business you are doing is actually very simple. I have written all the development route plans into the plan. You just need to do it step by step according to the plan. As for whether you can do this well, that is your own business."
Xu Tengyu is also a person who never gives up. He couldn't see the direction to move forward before, but now that Lu Yiming has pointed out a clear path for him, he naturally has to perform well and prove himself to everyone. He immediately said, "Okay, since you said so, if I don't make achievements, I will really disappoint your expectations. I still say that I want to make the market value of Tengyu Logistics 100 billion!"
"Okay, come on, I'm going to hang up first. I'm reading a book."
“…”
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiming opened the storybook on the table again.
Shi Qingxue next to her frowned and said, "It's already 10 o'clock in the evening. Why is someone calling you at this time?"
Lu Yiming said: "He's just a guy who's bored to death."
He put his arm around Shi Qingxue's shoulders and moved closer to her. He smelled the faint fragrance emanating from Shi Qingxue and licked his lips involuntarily.
Shi Qingxue looked at him warily and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Lu Yiming said: "Did you buy a new lipstick?"
Shi Qingxue nodded with a smile: "I changed to a new color. How is it? Does it look good?"
Lu Yiming raised his eyebrows and said, "It looks good, but I don't know what it tastes like. Let me try it."
As he spoke, Lu Yiming pouted moved closer to Shi Qingxue.
Shi Qingxue finally understood what Lu Yiming was up to. She quickly put her hands over him to block his mouth and said coquettishly, "You are so annoying."
Seeing that his beloved was reluctant to accept his proposal, how could Lu Yiming let it go? He immediately moved closer.
Then, the cell phone rang again.
Shi Qingxue seemed to have seen a savior and said, "There's a phone call."
Seeing that it has come to this point, why would Lu Yiming care about the phone call? Even if the sky falls, he will taste it first.
However, Shi Qingxue smiled sweetly and dodged flexibly, just to prevent Lu Yiming from getting what he wanted. At the same time, the cell phone on the table kept ringing, making Lu Yiming very annoyed.
"I've called you so many times, it must be something urgent, please answer it quickly."
Lu Yiming had no choice but to grab the phone, press the answer button, and said unhappily: "Hello? Who is it?"
A middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, Mr. Lu, I am Luo Yongjie from Jiedi Group."
The middle-aged man's tone was calm and confident, and he didn't seem to have any emotional fluctuations because of Lu Yiming's tone when he answered the phone.
Lu Yiming replied expressionlessly: "Oh, I don't know him, then what?"
Luo Yongjie on the other end of the phone felt terrible. After all, he was one of the famous entrepreneurs in Zhonghai. Who wouldn't give him some face in the circle?
This richest man Lu is so good that he just pretends not to know me.
This is too disrespectful!
Do you really think you can be arrogant just because you are the richest man?
Luo Yongjie expressed his anger.
However, he misunderstood Lu Yiming.
Lu Yiming was not putting on airs. He had indeed never heard of the Jiedi Group, let alone who Luo Yongjie was.
After all, although he has several real estate-related companies, he has no interest in the real estate industry as a whole, so it is naturally impossible for him to get to know any of his peers.
Luo Yongjie's name might be more useful if he told them about it.
Although Luo Yongjie was very angry, he did not show it on the spot. He even suppressed his emotions and said to Lu Yiming in a friendly manner: "Mr. Lu, I want to treat you to a meal. Do you have time tomorrow at noon?"
Without thinking, Lu Yiming said, "I'm busy. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. Bye."
Are you kidding? You can't just treat me to a meal to offset the interruption of my lipstick tasting?
Innocent!
I am the richest man in Lu, how could I lack your meal?
On the other side, Luo Yongjie was immediately defeated when he heard the beeping sound coming from the phone.
"Well, you are amazing, you are noble!"
"The richest man is amazing, right?"
"She hung up on me."
"I really don't believe it. I can't even see you!"
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiming didn't take it seriously at all and continued to study the taste of lipstick with Shi Qingxue.
The next morning, Lu Yiming suddenly received a call from Guo Guangchang. He was quite surprised: "Hey, senior, we haven't contacted each other for a while. Why are you calling me all of a sudden? What do you want to talk to me about?"
Guo Guangchang got straight to the point and said, "I heard that you hung up on Luo Yongjie last night?"
Lu Yiming thought about it carefully for a long time before he remembered and said, "Ah, it seems that's the case. He wanted to invite me to dinner, but you know me, am I such a casual person? So I just refused. What's the problem?"
When Guo Guangchang heard Lu Yiming's answer, he was immediately at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and asked, "Don't you know him?"
Lu Yiming asked back: "Do I have to know him?"
Guo Guangchang sighed and said, "I really don't know how your business has grown so big. Mr. Luo from the Jiedi Group is no ordinary person. He has a behemoth like the Zhao family standing behind him."
The Zhao family is one of the top wealthy families in Zhonghai, and its influence is even greater than that of the Xu family. Therefore, it is impossible for anyone who wants to do business in Zhonghai not to have heard of the Zhao family.
Luo Yongjie was the right-hand man of the old man of the Zhao family. Later, he went into business and founded the Jiedi Group, which spans multiple fields including real estate, finance, medicine and retail. With the support of the Zhao family, he has been very successful in the business world and is considered one of the local bosses in China Overseas.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have been frightened by Luo Yongjie's reputation. It was a pity that Lu Yiming didn't feel anything about it. After all, his business didn't rely on such relationships, so his reaction was very flat.
"Oh, and then?"
Guo Guangchang said helplessly: "So if you are free, why don't we have a meal together? That will make it easier for me to report to you, right?"
"All right."
After all, he is an old senior, so I have to give him some face. Besides, he is treating me to a meal, so it’s no big deal.
After school at noon, Zhao Tiezhu drove Lu Yiming to Yongfu Club, No. 200 Yongfu Road.
This is one of the top private clubs in Zhonghai, only slightly inferior to the Bankers Club and the Securities Association.
Those who can come here on weekdays are either rich or noble, especially the second generation of Zhonghai, who like to come here to discuss things. As a result, a top social circle has been formed here.
In the box, Lu Yiming not only saw Luo Yongjie, but also another person.
The man sat in a very casual posture, yet he seemed to have an air of dominance as if he held the power over the world. He was obviously a powerful figure.
Seeing Lu Yiming coming in, Luo Yongjie seemed to have forgotten his previous unhappiness. He walked around the big round table and came to Lu Yiming, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Lu, I have heard of you for a long time. I am Luo Yongming from Jiedi Group."
Then he introduced: "This is Mr. Zhao Bin."
Zhao Bin sat still, his eyes fell on Lu Yiming, looking at him, and asked, "Are you Lu Yiming?"
There was a hint of arrogance and casualness in his words, and it was obvious that he did not take Lu Yiming's title of "richest man" seriously.
Lu Yiming immediately knew that this person was not friendly, but he didn't say anything. He took out a stool and sat down, crossed his legs and leaned against the back of the chair, and said, "If you have something to say, say it quickly. I can make hundreds of thousands of dollars in a minute. You can't afford to waste my time."
Zhao Bin frowned, very unhappy: "Do you know who I am? How dare you talk to me like that?"
Lu Yiming laughed out loud after hearing this, and said disapprovingly: "Why? Do I have to kneel down and kowtow to you? Poor students have a lot of stationery, and useless people have a lot of trouble. If you don't say anything, I'll leave."
When Zhao Bin heard this, his expression almost couldn't hold back. He had always been arrogant in doing things, and this time he met someone even more arrogant than him.
However, Zhao Bin came from a wealthy family after all, so he calmed down and did not lose his temper on the spot. Instead, he signaled Luo Yongjie with his eyes to speak.
Luo Yongjie said, "Mr. Lu, I asked you to come here this time because I want to discuss cooperation with you."
Lu Yiming said sarcastically , "Oh? Cooperation? Then your attitude towards cooperation is quite good, huh? Tell me, what do you want to cooperate with me on?"
Luo Yongjie said: "We plan to cooperate with you to set up a securities company. We will be responsible for the domestic stock market, and you will be responsible for the US stock market."
After hearing this, Lu Yiming looked at Zhao Bin and Luo Yongjie like they were fools: "You guys are really good at calculating. You want me to take you to earn US dollars without any real money?"
Luo Yongjie said, "Mr. Lu, don't say that. We are just getting what we need. We can also help you gain a foothold in the domestic stock market."
Lu Yiming couldn't help laughing. "Brother, how did you manage not to laugh when you said that? Do I need to rely on you little bastards to gain a foothold in the domestic stock market? How shameless are you? You use non-existent assumptions as bargaining chips to come to me to get benefits. Do I look so gullible?"
Seeing that Lu Yiming refused to agree, Zhao Bin's face suddenly turned cold: "So, you are going to reject me?"
Lu Yiming stood up, sighed and said, "It's better to say something different than what you said. I thought there was something delicious, but I didn't expect you to be so stingy that you don't even want to put out the bait when you want to fish."
Seeing that Lu Yiming was about to leave, Zhao Bin had no intention of stopping him. He said indifferently, "Don't think that you can sit back and relax just because you are with the Xu family. Do you believe that I can make it difficult for you to move in Zhonghai?"
Lu Yiming almost laughed out loud.
Get close to the Xu family?
Which of these cuties could say such outrageous things?
"I always take the bus, you guys can walk on your own."
Watching Lu Yiming leave, Luo Yongjie bent over and said to Zhao Bin, "This guy really doesn't know how to appreciate a favor."
Zhao Bin said grimly, "Young people have never experienced setbacks, so it's inevitable that they don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. Just teach them a lesson. I will do this myself and make sure he will never forget it."
A few days later, it was still Yongfu Club.
Zhao Bin was in a good mood.
A group of second-generation people with unique identities and backgrounds gathered in the box.
"We have already arranged with the industrial, fire, health and other departments. If they come forward to find fault one by one, I wonder how his company can continue to operate."
"Exactly. He dares to ignore our interests and still wants to do business in Zhonghai?"
Someone worriedly said, "Xu Tengyu has been getting close to Lu Yiming recently. Would it be a bad idea for us to do this?"
The Xu family still has some status in the circle and cannot be ignored directly.
But some people were not afraid: "Why are you afraid? How long has Mr. Xu been retired? It's impossible for him to use up his favors on such a matter. Besides, with so many families joining forces, are we afraid of the Xu family?"
As the saying goes, two fists are no match for four hands. In fact, high-level fights are essentially the same as martial arts fights. It’s all about who has more friends and it emphasizes numbers.
Zhao Bin looked at these people who had the final say outside. Because of his order, they began to actively plan how to deal with Lu Yiming. He was very proud.
The leader of the martial arts world back then was probably no more than this.
Just as he was about to speak, Luo Yongjie came in somewhat panicked, waving the newspaper in his hand and said, "This is terrible, this is terrible."
Zhao Bin said unhappily, "Why are you yelling so much? You are so unstable at your age. What's the matter?"
Luo Yongjie said: "Lu Yiming and Xu Tengyu worked together to set up a veterans re-employment service center. Now those mainstream media are reporting on this matter, you can see."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Bin immediately lost his composure.
He understood the guiding significance of news very well. Many times, it represented the will of the court, especially the reports from official media organizations.
"The evening news will be on soon, turn on the TV!"
Afterwards, a group of people walked to the hall and gathered around the TV to watch the news broadcast. It was the first time for these second-generation people who only knew how to enjoy themselves and were uneducated to watch a news broadcast so seriously despite having grown up like that.
Sure enough, the Re-employment Service Center was on the news, and the report lasted three minutes, which is longer than state visits to some small countries!
Zhao Bin's scalp tingled as he watched.
"Lu Yiming has directly obtained the golden ticket of immunity from death."
Luo Yongjie was unwilling to give in: "Master Bin, are we still going to do it?"
They're all sharpening their knives and preparing to kill the pigs and sheep. How can they just let go of the meat that's almost in their mouths?
Zhao Bin was furious and yelled, "Get lost!"
After losing his temper and driving everyone away, Zhao Bin collapsed on the sofa like a punctured balloon, looking listless.
He knew he had lost, miserably.
In Shenzhou, as long as Lu Yiming doesn't commit suicide and cause the wrath of heaven and man, who would dare to touch him?
The Ministry of War is on the platform and it is officially endorsed. It concerns the re-employment of hundreds of thousands or even millions of veterans in the future. Whoever moves will die!
Taking advantage of the publicity momentum of the re-employment service center, Lu Yiming's fame was once again widely publicized.
Xu Tengyu's Tengyu Logistics is booming. Although it is still making losses on paper, its valuation keeps rising, even more exciting than stocks.
That is to say, it is not listed, otherwise it would be great to cash out directly in the stock market.
Xu Tengyu has been in great spirits these days and is living a very comfortable life.
However, in front of Lu Yiming, he was still very capable and did not float into the sky.
At the banquet, Xu Tengyu smiled and said to Lu Yiming: "Here's a toast to you, my God of Wealth."
A few days ago, he used five million to register a shell company.
A few days later, he had become the CEO of a logistics company with a market value of 600 million yuan. He had more than a thousand employees under him and his own training institution. Wherever he went, local officials would come up to him and shake his hand and smile.
Of course, he had enjoyed the same treatment when he was a yamen official.
But at that time the other party was giving face to his family. Now it’s different, he also has face!
Lu Yiming also smiled and picked up the wine glass, saying, "Then let's go one."
Xu Tengyu invited many people and booked the entire hotel.
There were many Zhonghai celebrities present, some of whom were even familiar faces that could be seen frequently in newspapers and on television.
Some well-known stars can only smile in such occasions.
Li Quanwang, who came along to join in the fun, stared with his eyes wide open. When he saw several beautiful female stars , he screamed with excitement.
"Isn't this Lin Shiru who played the role of Huanzhu?"
"The Queen of Change, Zhang Baizi."
"Sammi Cheng"
Li Yiwen, who was standing next to him, patted Li Quanwang on the shoulder and scolded him with a smile, "They are just a few actors, why are you yelling here?"
Like Lu Yiming, he never chases stars. His idols are basically rich people. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a materialist.
Li Yiwen looked at Xu Tengyu, who was happily chatting and laughing with the big shots in the distance, and asked Lu Yiming: "Speaking of which, can't we open this logistics company ourselves? Why do you have to give money to Xu Tengyuhua?"
Twenty million, just spent like that, that's real money!
If it were Li Yiwen, he felt that he would definitely not be willing to do so.
Lu Yiming just smiled and said nothing, without explaining.
On the contrary, Li Quanwang was smart for once and said directly to Li Yiwen: "You, you are just worrying about other people's business. Do you know what it means to play the long game and catch the big fish? Are you still worried that Lu Yiming will lose money in business? Have you ever seen him lose money?"
Li Yiwen thought about it and found that it was indeed the case.
When it comes to making money, I can't even flatter Lu Yiming, so why am I worrying about him here?
Instead of spending this free time, you might as well think about how capital should develop in the future and which industries to invest in.
