Stylistic road

Chen Mingliang abruptly turned a other people's party into his personal special show.

But he finally understood that he was here today to cheer Brother Meng.

"Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about Brother Meng. When he returned to China, he had nothing more than a passion. He didn’t even have a girlfriend. Now, this is a very promising entrepreneur. The most elementary needs, although his personal problems have not yet been resolved, but how many well-qualified girls take the initiative to give their arms, from the daughter of the deputy minister of the country to the daughter of the president of a listed company. I don’t know how many people there are. The greedy son-in-law of Chenglong.

Although his company has not yet been listed, I think he earns a little bit more wealth every year than everyone here."

When Chen Mingliang said this, he also glanced at the old goddess.

"What's the use of having money, and social status." Feeling Chen Mingliang's eyes, the goddess spoke again.

"Overseas, like our Chinatown, you need status to be respected. It's useless to have wealth."

"It's the same everywhere in the world. Wherever there is no money, there is status. As far as I know, in San Francisco, when people mention Chinese people, they think of gangsters, drug trafficking, and robbery. Does this have status? Righteous, apart from bullying the Chinese, these organizations have no place anymore." Chen Mingliang said very directly, he totally despised the gangsters.

The face of the goddess was unsightly. The old man she married was a member of the Zhigong Party. His predecessor was also a member of Hehetao and started with protection fees.

"Mr. Chen may not know the predecessors of some parties. Even the consulate of the country will invite them to spend the festive season. This is a symbol of status and status." The goddess said that she seemed proud.

This kind of fun with the people is an organization can play. Chen Mingliang was trying to find a reason and wording to refute it. A security guard who is not too tall but unusually strong came in and said that someone was looking for him outside.

"Who?" Chen Mingliang was very curious, except for a few individuals, no one knew he was here.

Anbao said, "Said it is a staff member of our country's consulate in San Francisco."

"Consulate?" Chen Mingliang was even more puzzled. He must have been unable to conceal the consulate about his coming to the United States, because he was holding a Chinese passport and had to be filed for entry and exit.

But is there something to be able to find here?

However, people were invited in.

What came in was a decent man in a suit and tie transitioning from youth to middle age. He first extended his hand to Chen Mingliang, "Hello, Mr. Chen, my surname is Chen, and I am an ordinary staff member of our consulate."

"Yeah, Secretary Chen, why are you here?" Someone here really knows him. This visitor is a first-class secretary of the consulate, and he is of a certain level. At least he has a lot of power. He used to organize the top Chinese gatherings.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang, so you are here." Secretary Chen nodded to the Mr. Zhang, and then continued to shake hands with Chen Mingliang.

"Hello, Secretary Chen, what's the matter?" Chen Mingliang was quite puzzled when he came to find himself.

The job of the consulate secretary is to answer the phone, take notes, send and receive documents, convey information, and do some trivial chores related to protocol arrangements and reception.

In fact, the position is not high, but the authority is not small. It can be said that a person with a lot of power besides the consul is very easy to be promoted.

"Is there anything wrong with you coming over?" Chen Mingliang asked again.

Secretary Chen smiled and bared eight teeth. Then he said, "The Ambassador of our consulate heard that you are in San Francisco. He thinks that he should do the friendship of the landlords. He specially organized a gathering of local celebrities and wanted to invite our famous nationals. Mr. Chen Mingliang, the athlete of China, went to the banquet. I wonder if you can appreciate it."

"Polite, polite." Chen Mingliang didn't mean to agree.

In fact, the relationship between Chen Mingliang and the government is not good, but it is not bad either. There are many such things.

The main reason is to go to a foreign country to participate in the competition. The local ambassador usually finds someone to come to give condolences. However, Chen Mingliang has always been more casual.

"The consul meant that I would invite you so that everyone can gather together. In China, it is not easy for everyone to see you, and it is not easy for you to come to San Francisco once." Secretary Chen spoke very politely, but There is a tone that cannot be refused.

However, being able to organize a banquet specifically for Chen Mingliang is considered to be a very high standard, at least some of the leading figures of the party do not have this face.

"Let me ask, you leave a phone call to me, and I will arrange the place depending on the time." Chen Mingliang didn't mean anything, except that he was still making face for Senior Brother Meng and had to finish singing.

Finally, it depends on the time to have a meal with the consul. He has seen too many ambassadors, and the level of consuls is a lot lower. Although people are not viewed according to their level, they should always take advantage of their time.

Secretary Chen said, "Our public officials are not like you who can do things cheaply. We are all ready there. Please don't refuse, let's go now."

"What? You mean now?" Chen Mingliangxin said why you are so confident.

"Yes, we are all ready there. We friends can also go over and have a good time together. It is also considered that we have done our landlord friendship." Secretary Chen is still smiling very professionally. How many chopsticks are broken.

"No need, I won't go. My itinerary is not prepared to visit the consulate. I feel happier here than there. Please come back. Thank you Mr. Consul for me." The twisted melon is not sweet. , Chen Mingliang suddenly felt a little unhappy.

Turning to the security guard, he said, "Send this Secretary Chen back."

Chen Mingliang sat back and didn't look at him anymore. You laughed sweetly, but what you said made people unhappy.

Secretary Chen didn't expect Chen Mingliang to refuse so simply and without saving face. He wanted to say something more, but the security personnel had already meant to stop him and had to give up.

Everyone was stunned by Chen Mingliang's operation.

At first I thought he was really good at talking. After all, it was indeed a face-saving thing for others to invite him to the meeting. I didn't expect that if he didn't agree with him, he would not give any face.

"This beautiful senior sister, can a person with status refuse the call of the powerful like this?" The senior sister also indulged in surprise and couldn't answer.

Chen Mingliang felt that he was not respected, and naturally refused completely.

In fact, Mr. Consul originally wanted to come in person, but Secretary Chen did not let him, and arranged the banquet in advance, and then inquired about the position of Chen Mingliang. Inviting Chen Mingliang to the meeting was also a manifestation of his strong working ability.

Everyone is still a little worried about Chen Mingliang's self-use. Although there is no major trouble, is it really good to offend some people like this? Chinese overseas still need their help in many cases.

The banquet continued, everyone still had some understanding of Chen Mingliang's strength. This Mr. Chen still had a bit of personality, not a completely easy-going person.

The goddess was a little bit ridiculous. Her husband absolutely didn't have the courage to refuse the invitation directly. Besides, he didn't have the status to allow a consulate to organize a banquet for him.

However, it did not take long before the security personnel came in again. "Someone came again. He said it was Consul Mr. Peng."

Sure enough, a middle-aged man came in again with the Secretary Chen just now. The Secretary Chen was very good-natured, and still didn't mean to be angry. He still smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, our Consul Peng personally invited you. Please appreciate it."

Chen Mingliang ignored him, but he still stretched out his hand to shake hands with Consul Peng, and the etiquette still cannot be lost.

Consul Peng has been in the United States for a long time. He ignored Chen Mingliang’s outstretched hand and went up to give Chen Mingliang a hug, then patted Chen Mingliang’s apostasy.

"Welcome! Welcome Mr. Chen to our San Francisco. We are also very proud and proud to see Mr. Chen."

Consul Peng familiarly grasped Chen Mingliang's hands and did not relax. "Mr. Chen has really good hands. Even if he doesn't practice track and field, he is definitely a good player in basketball, and his achievements will not be lower than that of Yao."

The consul grandeur Chen Mingliang praised that there are rare figures in the sky and on the earth. Flattery is not annoying at all. On the contrary, it appears very sincere and makes people feel like a spring breeze.

"Meeting Mr. Chen is the wish of the vast number of Chinese and overseas Chinese, and it is also my own little wish. I don't know Mr. Chen..." It is still the language skills of others.

However, Chen Mingliang really didn't plan to attend a banquet of any kind. If he was unhappy, he was unhappy, even if he changed the time and invited him.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Peng, my itinerary plans are all arranged. I may not have so much time to come to show you. I'm really sorry. I'll do it again when I go to China." Chen Minglianglian plans to entertain guests in San Francisco. Also cancelled.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, I can meet Mr. Chen, it's already fulfilling my little wish, Mr. Chen's schedule is tight, it's all right, it's all right."

Mr. Peng sat down, had a few drinks with everyone, and then left.

At this time the sun has gone west, and the wind is stronger and cooler.

The consul got on the car and the secretary took the co-pilot. However, Chen Mingliang did not come out to deliver them. Instead, some people present came out to deliver them.

"President Peng, Chen Mingliang is too shameless."

"Why does he want to give face, in his status, doesn't he go wherever he wants?"

"Then our banquet?"

"Cancelling, being able to invite Mr. Chen Mingliang, is indeed helpful to our work in San Francisco, but offending him is definitely a major obstacle to our future. He has more opportunities to meet with leaders than anyone else. A word of gossip, there are no results in our work."
