"Mr. Zhou!"
Lu Wenqi quickened his pace, proactively extended his hands to shake Zhou Wang’s, and then hurriedly introduced Yu Dandan beside him.
"It’s good that you’re here. We can talk about other things later. Fel, let’s eat first?"
After Zhou Wang and Yu Dandan greeted each other, Zhou Wang introduced Fel Renault. Once Lu Wenqi and Yu Dandan, feeling flattered, shook hands with the enthusiastic Fel Renault, Zhou Wang proposed.
Fel Renault naturally had no objections. He promptly stood up and, chatting and laughing with Zhou Wang, headed downstairs together.
Lu Wenqi and Yu Dandan were filled with confusion, but at this moment, they couldn’t inquire about anything. It seemed that this meeting with Zhou Wang had deviated completely from what they had imagined from the moment they entered the restaurant...
The group arrived downstairs, and under the watchful eyes of Lu Wenqi and Yu Dandan, those from top luxury brands, either CEOs or family heirs, stood up one after another, quickly putting on smiles.
However, the scene that shocked Lu Wenqi and Yu Dandan came next.
At this moment, Fel Renault silently stepped aside, and then they saw Johnfu, the chairman of Chaumet, approach first, almost obsequiously extending his hands to shake Beijing Zhou’s and rapidly saying a bunch of things...
Next, it was Christine, the heir of Hermes. She gave Zhou Wang a tight hug, said just a few words, and tears were already shimmering in her eyes.
The president of Dior, the president of Chanel... They all greeted Zhou Wang with both enthusiasm and respect.
At the very back was the eldest son of the Brioni family, who, when they first came in, had been sitting with a lofty demeanor while talking to Paulina. Now he was queuing, waiting for a chance to say a word to Zhou Wang, his face a mix of anxiety and ingratiating smiles...
It was at this moment that Lu Wenqi and Yu Dandan suddenly realized that all these so-called big figures had been waiting for Zhou Wang from the start.
...
In the empty restaurant, only two tables were occupied.
Yu Dandan turned her head one last time to look at the long dining table on the other side of the restaurant, filled with various brand presidents, and then withdrew her gaze with a strange expression.
At this moment, she still felt like she was in a dream, everything seemed so unreal.
Giving herself a hard pinch, she glanced at Lu Wenqi beside her, whose mouth could hardly suppress a grin, and couldn’t help but whisper with a laugh, "President Lu, maybe you should tone it down, right now you look like a little man who’s gained some favor..."
"Why should I tone it down? If I wasn’t afraid of disturbing Mr. Zhou, I would burst out laughing right now!"
Lu Wenqi let out a hearty laugh, took a bite of his steak, and then leisurely raised his head.
Right in front of their table, led by Paulina, a dozen brand representatives, all at least executive vice presidents, stood waiting with embarrassed smiles.
Zhou Wang didn’t explain much to the two, just said a sentence, "I’m here to help you solve your problems and treat you to a meal," and sat them at this table.
Lu Wenqi and Yu Dandan did nothing but ordered their meal, and those brand representatives, who usually were hard to invite, came rushing to wait here.
They held blank contracts they had prepared, waiting patiently for the two to finish their meal, seemingly afraid that Lu Wenqi wouldn’t sign with them.
Lu Wenqi felt that all the grievances he’d suffered in the past half year were vented at this moment.
This scene was like a dream, but even if it were a dream, he wished it would last a bit longer...
Looking at the ingratiating smiles of the brand representatives in front of him, Lu Wenqi
Hmm, what was that saying again?
I still prefer your unyielding looks.
