Hotel banquet hall.
Despite it being late at night, not a single guest left.
They came from all over the country and were still enjoying tea and chatting.
As for why he didn't want to go back to his room to sleep in the middle of the night?
Of course, it's not just because old friends reunite and new friends make so many things to talk about.
Also, everyone tacitly agreed that they were all waiting for Zhao Ruilong's arrival.
It's approaching twelve o'clock.
Gao Qiqiang was so sleepy he could barely stay awake.
Drinking tea couldn't stop my drowsiness, so I had to straighten my back and secretly bite the tip of my tongue.
In contrast.
Today, my younger brother, Gao Qisheng, is dressed in a suit and looks exceptionally handsome.
At this moment, he is still full of energy, chatting and laughing with the guests at the same table.
Gao Qiqiang forced himself to stay alert and listened silently.
He knew he had a low level of education and limited experience.
I used to work as a fishmonger at the Jinghai Old Factory Street Market for over ten years.
Even in just two short years, he reversed his fate and became the chairman of Jinghai Qiangsheng Group.
It is an honor to be able to attend this private gathering of wealthy businessmen and celebrities.
Everyone chatted freely about various topics such as the international situation and the domestic economy.
Even though he studies diligently every day and is quite knowledgeable about current affairs and politics.
But they dared not express their opinions in such a setting, for fear of being laughed at.
He just listened without saying a word, and smiled throughout...
Over time, it's inevitable to feel sleepy.
When everyone was talking about how the United States sent troops to Afghanistan under the pretext of counterterrorism, but ended up getting bogged down in the war, they all laughed. Gao Qiqiang quickly forced a smile and joined in.
Amidst the laughter, Gao Qiqiang quickly glanced at the entrance to the hall.
The door remained closed, and two tall, beautiful greeters stood gracefully.
"That's strange. Couldn't Mr. Xiao have mentioned that Mr. Zhao's flight has already landed?"
"Why is it taking so long? We're still not there? It's the middle of the night, is there going to be traffic?"
Gao Qiqiang shifted his gaze back.
Because of their close cooperation, he and his brother naturally had Zhao Ruilong's phone number.
But he dared not call Zhao Ruilong to ask where he was.
Just as he was hesitating whether to take another sip of tea to perk himself up,
Seeing that several people across the way had suddenly stopped smiling and were looking at the doorway with surprise and suspicion.
Following everyone's gaze, Gao Qiqiang also quickly turned his head to look.
Two beautiful women greeted the guests, opening the main door from the left and right.
As the refined and elegant Zhao Ruilong, with a smile on his face, entered the hall, surrounded by Xiao Jinhua, Zheng Xinrong, and others.
Gao Qiqiang was instantly wide awake, as if he had been given a shot of adrenaline, and his whole body became energetic.
That's when.
The once lively and bustling hall suddenly fell silent, with no one chatting or laughing.
Everyone stood up and applauded in welcome.
Many people rushed forward to greet them.
Those radiant smiling faces, those warm greetings...
It not only embodies the power of authority but also vividly portrays the sycophancy that comes with it.
After causing a car accident to kill his godfather Chen Tai, Gao Qiqiang then annexed Jinghai Construction Group.
Now, he is not only the Jinghai Qiangsheng Group on the surface, but also the underground boss of Jinghai in secret.
Although he already knew what it felt like to be rich and powerful.
But it's hard to imagine how awesome it must be to be incredibly wealthy and have such a prestigious background.
Looking at the guests, each a multi-millionaire and a prominent figure in their respective fields or territories, it was a sight to behold.
They stayed up from day to night, yet they were still so overjoyed and excited to welcome Zhao Ruilong...
Gao Qiqiang couldn't help but sigh inwardly:
"No matter how tough a businessman is or how much money he has, he has to bow down when he sees the most powerful and influential people!"
"So, from the moment of reincarnation, the difference in life between people has already begun."
"But heroes are as numerous as carp crossing a river, and even the most outstanding people struggle to make a living. What more could I, a lowly fishmonger, possibly want to achieve today?"
"And it's not just because Young Master Zhao was born into a good family that he was born into the family of Zhao Lichun, the top official in Handong Province.
"More importantly, he is outstanding enough. He not only has the ability to participate in politics and influence policy-making, but also the strength to invest and do business and obtain rich returns. Furthermore, he is approachable, humble and open-minded in his dealings with others."
Having kept An Xin's teachings in mind, Gao Qiqiang, who frequently reads history books or military strategies, naturally understands the importance of contentment.
So when he saw Zhao Ruilong being welcomed by a crowd, he felt no envy or jealousy whatsoever.
"Sorry everyone, I'm late."
"Please, everyone, have a seat!"
Zhao Ruilong raised his hand and made a few feigned pressure gestures.
The crowd finally stopped chattering and began to greet and shake hands with each other.
Taking the microphone from the waiter, Zhao Ruilong walked to the small stage at the innermost part of the hall amidst enthusiastic applause.
"Thank you everyone, thank you."
After Zhao Ruilong bowed slightly in greeting, the applause grew even more enthusiastic.
Seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Jinhua quickly waved to signal.
Soon, everyone stopped clapping and sat down, gazing intently at Zhao Ruilong.
In many people's eyes, Zhao Ruilong is not only the heir of Handong, but also their god of wealth.
"I'm so sorry that everyone had to wait for me for several hours because of the flight delay. Considering that it's already very late, I'll just say a few words!"
"First of all, we are very grateful to everyone for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the Spring Private Event jointly organized by Handong Automobile Group and Yanjing Lijing Golf Club."
"Secondly, tomorrow's private event will include a series of activities such as the new car launch, discussions, and test drives. All questions about our new car will be answered tomorrow."
"Finally, on behalf of Huilong Group, I would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone and thank you for your support. I sincerely wish you all a pleasant and enjoyable time at this private event. Thank you!"
After saying that, Zhao Ruilong bowed again in greeting.
The applause rang out again with great enthusiasm.
Xiao Jinhua hurriedly grabbed the microphone and went on stage.
"Everyone! Everyone! Listen to me!"
"I know everyone has a lot to say to Mr. Zhao, but it's really too late today. Mr. Zhao hasn't even had dinner yet!"
"We'll have plenty of time to talk with Mr. Zhao tomorrow. Everyone, please go back to your rooms and rest tonight! Thank you!"
Xiao Jinhua, known as the richest man in China, has already put his words to this extent.
Everyone present was shrewd and intelligent, so naturally no one would linger there.
Before leaving, they all waved to Zhao Ruilong, who responded with a smile.
The Gao brothers were no exception.
He waved excitedly to Zhao Ruilong, and after exchanging a smile with him, he left satisfied.
And it was just such a simple 'smile at each other'.
It was worth it for Gao Qiqiang and Gao Qisheng to wait until late into the night.
Along with the two brothers, Gao Mingyuan, who had come from Lvteng City in Zhongjiang Province, also left.
Thanks to the cooperation with Huilong Group, coupled with their own ruthlessness and hard work.
Gao Mingyuan's Changteng Capital is now developing rapidly and has strong financial strength in Zhongjiang Province.
In addition, since they both share the surname Gao, they also have close cooperation and interactions in private.
So naturally, the three of them were always together wherever they went.
As Gao Mingyuan walked out of the hall, he asked as he went:
"Brother Qiang, Xiao Sheng, what price do you two think the new car that President Zhao is going to launch tomorrow will be?"
Gao Qiqiang casually remarked, "Judging from the leaked photos and videos online, such a big and good-looking car, I estimate it would sell for at least a million!"
Gao Mingyuan glanced at Gao Qisheng with a smile.
"Where's Xiao Sheng?"
Gao Qisheng adjusted his glasses, thought for a moment, and then said:
"I think it's still unlikely to reach over a million."
"Some time ago, a friend of mine took a fancy to an imported Toyota Land Cruiser."
"I asked several dealers, and the highest price quoted for the 2000 model 4700 was only 75 yuan, while the more sought-after and popular 4500 was only about 70 yuan after the markup."
"The cars that sell for over a million yuan in China and still have good sales are mostly imported luxury cars, such as the Mercedes-Benz S320, BMW 740i, and Audi A8."
"Judging from the videos and photos that have been leaked online, Mr. Zhao's new car is indeed technologically advanced, stylish, luxurious, and impressive. However, we must also consider that this is a new brand, so how can it be priced too high?"
"Given the current economic development and price levels in our country, the average monthly salary for office workers is only around one thousand yuan. A car that can be sold for several hundred thousand yuan is already considered very high-end and luxurious."
The three arrived at the elevator. Gao Mingyuan stopped and asked with a smile:
"So you think Mr. Zhao's new car will definitely be under a million, and the price is very likely to be around 500,000 to 600,000?"
"more or less!"
Gao Qisheng said confidently:
"This price point not only gives the brand a high-end image, but also makes it more accessible to high-net-worth individuals."
"Even imported Mercedes-Benz ML320 and BMW X5 are priced at around 700,000 yuan."
"To offset their strong brand advantage, it is obviously not possible to rely solely on exterior design, interior features, and performance configuration."
"What Mr. Zhao is launching tomorrow is both a new car and a new brand, and the key is that it's domestically produced. If it's not sold at a lower price, how can it offer good value for money?"
Gao Qiqiang yawned and looked around.
"Oh dear, no matter how much Mr. Zhao wants to sell, we must give him our full support!"
"Even if it sells for one or two million, so what? Are we supposed to just sit back and not buy a few to support President Zhao?"
Gao Mingyuan chuckled.
"I will definitely buy it, it's just a matter of how much."
"Mr. Zhao invested so much money and put so much effort into this car."
"They're even going so far as to personally promote and market it; how can we not give them our full support?"
"Yes!"
Gao Qiqiang muttered to himself, "During holidays, President Zhao doesn't allow us to give gifts. Now we finally have a chance to improve our relationship and please President Zhao."
"So, regardless of whether the cars are good or not, even if they are just fancy but useless models as rumored, our Qiangsheng Group must buy at least ten of them to boost sales for President Zhao!"
Gao Qisheng smiled confidently, a slight upturn at the corners of his lips:
"Brother, stop worrying unnecessarily!"
"When has Mr. Zhao ever produced a bad technological product?"
"If it were really good-looking but not easy to drive or durable, do you think he would have allowed it to be launched on the market? Would he have personally promoted it?"
"With such a distinguished background and status, and having invested so much time and money in building cars, are they really going to produce industrial garbage and become a laughing stock?"
"I'm quite curious. With so many celebrities here, what kind of surprises will tomorrow's new car launch event bring? Will it turn into a concert?"
Gao Qiqiang did not respond.
He felt that it was already a great honor for him to be able to attend such a private gathering of wealthy businessmen and celebrities.
Whether it will be a spectacular and high-end event is secondary.
