Chapter 615 White Heart and Yellow Skin
Zhu Chongliang is a very shrewd businessman. After sending Tang Zhu away, he didn't try to curry favor with Lu Yiming. Instead, he took out the evening gowns for Yu Jiayi and Qi Xuecheng to try on.

He knew very well that at this time, he couldn't deliberately get close to Lu Yiming, as long as he pleased the two aunts in front of him, there would be plenty of opportunities to get close when they got acquainted in the future.

Of course Lu Yiming was very aware of what was happening in front of him, but he didn't care.He originally planned to buy an evening dress for Yu Jiayi today, but seeing that Qi Xuecheng was so interested, he didn't say anything.

After a while, Zhu Chongliang brought the evening dress, and Qi Xuecheng excitedly said to Yu Jiayi: "Come on, let's go and try it on. I have long wanted to see why these clothes are so expensive. Could it be that they are mixed with gold?" and diamonds?"

Being able to say such things, one can imagine how much she doesn't understand luxury goods.But Zhu Chongliang did not dare to neglect at all.

It's okay if they don't understand, as long as the big benefactor next to him understands!

The longing for luxury goods can almost be said to be the instinctive desire of human beings. Yu Jiayi used to only watch from a distance and dare not approach. The price tag in the store alone was enough to make her flinch.But today, with Lu Yiming by her side, she was finally able to get what she wanted.

Yu Jiayi was very cautious, afraid of breaking these things, so she moved slowly. After a while, she tried two or three sets.

Every set is very beautiful.

Yu Jiayi compared back and forth, and suffered from difficulty in choosing: "Qi Xuecheng, which one do you think I should choose better? I like both sets."

Lu Yiming immediately said: "Then what else should I choose? Just buy both sets and it's over?"

When Zhu Chongliang heard it, he was dizzy with happiness.

A luxury store like theirs serves the top group of people. Except for a few regular customers, if they can usually do two orders a month, it is considered prosperous.After all, in this era, few people can afford clothes that cost tens of thousands of yuan.

And today, several sets can be released at once, which is definitely a huge achievement!

The rich rich second generation is awesome.

Yu Jiayi looked at the tag, frowned and said, "These two items will cost more than 5 yuan, won't it be too expensive?"

Lu Yiming smiled and said: "Don't worry, anyway, you will often accompany me to attend some important social occasions in the future, buy a few more sets to save yourself from buying again when you can. Choose a few more."

Afterwards, he said to Qi Xuecheng: "Everyone is here, why don't you take a look too, and I will give away the ones that are pleasing to the eye."

This little money is nothing to Lu Yiming, but it can let Yu Jiayi see his generosity.Lu Yiming still valued this strong-willed and serious senior, and planned to win over and train her as his confidant, so he didn't care about spending more money on her.

After more than an hour of tossing, the two girls left the clothing store with several gift bags each.

Until the three of them turned the corner and disappeared, Zhu Chongliang still stood at the door to watch them off.

He was so happy today that he received these two customers and directly completed his one-year KPI.

"Sure enough, he is a rich second generation who is not short of money. Two or three million yuan can be used to swipe the card without blinking. If you can come to such a big customer every day..."

Just as he was daydreaming, Tang Zhu came over sullenly and said, "Boss, the warehouse has been tidied up."

Zhu Chongliang nodded slightly and said, "Very good, I will send you this month's salary later, and you can go home now."

Tang Zhu said with a puzzled look: "It's only the eighth day of this month, why are you getting paid? Isn't it usually paid at the end of the month?"

Zhu Chongliang said blankly: "Because you were fired!"

In the girls' dormitory, Qi Xuecheng was still extremely excited.

Although when she was going out, she joked with Yu Jiayi that Lu Yiming would buy some for her if he had the money, but she was just talking casually, and she didn't think about it at all.

But what she didn't expect was that Lu Yiming treated her as the same as Yu Jiayi, and bought her several evening dresses worth tens of thousands of yuan.

Needless to say, Yu Jiayi, six sets of evening dresses, with various styles, cost a full 10,000+.

"Hey guys, are you robbing a bank?"

"I seem to have seen this brand in a fashion magazine. It is said that a pair of socks cost thousands of dollars!"

"Did Lu Yiming buy these?"

The envious and jealous eyes of the roommates greatly satisfied Qi Chengxue's inner vanity.

She smiled and said, "What about robbing a bank? Are we that kind of people? These were all given to us by Lu Yiming. Let me tell you, we even met an acquaintance when we were shopping for clothes."

"Oh? Who?"

"Tang Zhu."

"Tang Zhu?"

After all, we are all classmates, and we are no strangers to this name.

"She usually has her eyes above her head, and because she is a local, she has something to do with it, so she looks at people with her nostrils all day long. Are you going to do business for her?"

Yu Jiayi said: "No, she just happened to be working in that store."

Qi Xuecheng smiled and said: "You don't know. When we left, the boss was like a pug. He wanted to send us back in person. I guess Tang Zhu's job is over. If she offends us, she will be scolded by the boss." I can't die."

"Okay."

"It's called evil comes with evil."

Hearing what Qi Xuecheng said, the roommates applauded.

A roommate looked at Yu Jiayi, with an unknown teasing expression in his eyes: "The richest man in Lu is really generous. You can buy several sets of evening dresses worth tens of thousands of yuan. He just doesn't treat money as money. Yu Meiren, You are telling the truth, do you have any other relationship with the richest man in Lu besides the superior-subordinate relationship?"

"Is the richest man in Lu still short of a secretary? Whether it's work or something else, I can do it."

Facing the roommate who became more and more dishonest, Yu Jiayi blushed a little, and quickly argued: "What are you thinking, Lu is always a very good person, and he is very generous to his subordinates. He has so many companies, You can apply for it."

The event venue of the China Overseas Tourism Hotel Industry Association.

A lot of industry leaders came here today. Apart from online travel companies such as Home Inn and Ctrip, most of them are old-fashioned overlords in the offline travel industry.

However, the ecology of Xia Guo's offline tourism industry has basically stabilized, and it can even be said that the market has become a bloody red sea. Basically, there are not many stories to tell, and there is little room for imagination, so it is not very favored by capital.

Therefore, among the crowd, the two people who attracted the most attention were Ji Qi and Liang Jianzhang.

Their company is now the banner and benchmark of the online travel industry, and the relationship between the two makes things even more interesting.

"The former Ctrip four gentlemen, is this considered a separation?"

"Yeah, it feels like blinking, and I feel a little unreal."

"It's not only a separation, but also a competitor."

"You're behind in the news, and you're almost out of your mind now. I'm afraid you'll have to decide whether you're going to win or die."

"I heard that Ctrip asked for peace, but Home Inns didn't agree."

"I don't agree with me, who hasn't lost his temper? The return of the king is a normal drama."

"So serious? What happened between the four gentlemen?"

"No one can explain the specifics clearly. Anyway, it is very chaotic now."

"I don't know whether the two sides will take advantage of today's opportunity to do something."

"It's hard to say, let's watch a play."

The former partners are now "turning against each other". Countless colleagues in the tourism industry are watching the show, waiting for Ji Qi and Liang Jianzhang to decide the winner.

At the venue, Ji Qi was wearing a neat suit, with a confident smile on his face and a high-spirited spirit.He saw Liang Jianzhang in the crowd, and even took the initiative to greet him: "Old Liang, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon."

Liang Jianzhang appeared calm on the surface, shook hands with Ji Qi, and said with a smile: "I really didn't expect that. Congratulations, Rujia has seized an important opportunity, and now it is skyrocketing."

The two of them didn't seem to have any intention of Mars hitting the earth.

It's just that Liang Jianzhang's so-called "unexpectedness" meant that Ji Qi's actions would be so fast, and in the blink of an eye, Ctrip would be rubbed on the ground crazily.

Ji Qi also smiled and said, "You're not bad either. Under your management, Ctrip has made steady progress every step of the way."

After chatting for a few scenes, Liang Jianzhang finally couldn't help but ask Ji Qi: "Old Ji, why do you have to die? In fact, we can continue to cooperate, just like when we founded Ctrip together. Did you forget Lao Ji?" ? The name of the company was taken by you."

After hearing this, Ji Qi shook his head slightly, without any nostalgia on his face, and said indifferently: "This is a commercial competition, and there is no personal grievance involved."

Ji Qi still cherishes Liang Jianzhang as a friend, and he doesn't even have much resentment towards Shen Nanpeng.

What really upset him was that he was kicked out of the company, which dealt him a very big blow.

Because he is an extremely strong person, how he was kicked out of the company back then, now he will get back everything he lost.

Prove to everyone that Ji Qi hasn't given up yet!

Seeing that Ji Qi's attitude is so firm, it is obvious that the nine bulls can't get back, Liang Jianzhang completely gave up his plan to persuade his former friends with words.

Having known each other for so many years, Liang Jianzhang still understands Ji Qi's temper.Although Ji Qi usually looks like an honest person, it is often more terrifying for an honest person to be provoked.

Liang Jianzhang really regrets it now. If Home Inns are allowed to grow and develop, Ctrip may not be able to complete the goals set at the beginning.What's more, there will be the risk of being squeezed or even annexed by Home Inns.If Ji Qi hadn't been pushed too hard, or if he had agreed to Lu Yiming's investment, would things have been different?Anyway, after rejecting Lu Yiming, he would choose other investors.Now there is an extra competitor and an enemy for no reason.

But there is no medicine for regret in this world, especially in business competition.There are many examples where one wrong step and the whole game is lost.Now if Ctrip does not intend to admit defeat, it can only bite the bullet and fight Home Inns to the end.

At this moment, someone shouted, "The richest man Lu is here."

Immediately, everyone stopped talking and looked towards the door in unison.

Lu Yiming attended with Yu Jiayi dressed up.

"The richest man Lu is still young. Every time I see him, I feel inferior."

"Who says it's not? It's really invincible to become the richest man in Xia Kingdom from scratch at the same age as my son."

"The richest man in Lu is really ruthless. Once he makes a move, it is a lore. He personally led the break between the four gentlemen of Ctrip. This ability to turn one's hands into clouds and turn one's hands into rain is beyond compare."

"How can Lu Yiming, a billionaire who likes to invest in Internet companies, focus on the tourism industry? This puts me under a lot of pressure."

"It can only be said that the dimensionality reduction strike."

"Report to the group to keep warm."

For Lu Yiming, a macho man who fell from the sky, those people who were engaged in the tourism industry naturally gritted their teeth with hatred in their hearts.

Since the implementation of the Golden Week policy in [-], tourism-related industries have flourished, and bigwigs from all walks of life have entered the game one after another.After two years of strangulation, the battle situation has now reached a fierce stage, and the competition between each family is very fierce.

Now Lu Yiming, the richest man engaged in the Internet, entered the market with a completely different idea and a huge amount of funds, and directly killed the Quartet, which is simply frightening.

Although I hated him in my heart, I was also secretly telling myself not to provoke Lu Yiming, otherwise the current Ctrip would be the end.

He just rejected Lu Yiming's investment, and in just one month, he was hammered by Lu Yiming so hard that he couldn't find his way, and he didn't even have a chance to seek peace.

Although Lu Yiming had stated many times that he would not have any personal grievances, no one dared to verify this statement.Such a ruthless person who is willing to take money to kill his competitors is really scary.

Although Yu Jiayi followed Lu Yiming to many occasions, but because Lu Yiming himself is not a person who likes to join in the fun, this is the first time Yu Jiayi has come to such a high-end party.Looking at these bigwigs who usually only appeared on TV and newspapers, Yu Jiayi felt very nervous, for fear of accidentally saying the wrong thing or doing the wrong thing.

After taking a few deep breaths, Yu Jiayi's mood gradually calmed down. Then she silently observed the people around her and asked Lu Yiming in a low voice: "Mr. Lu, why do I feel that everyone here seems to be afraid of you? Are you so scary?"

Lu Yiming touched his cheek and asked, "Why are you afraid of me? Am I scary? It's not me they're afraid of, they're just afraid of the money in my hand, right?"

Who in China would dare to say that he is not afraid of a man with tens of billions of cash flow?
After a while, a few more people came in. They were investment representatives of foreign-funded institutions.Although they have a face of a yellow race, the inside is already pure white, the kind that is whiter than white people.

One of them was named Yang Xiangdong.

He stepped into the venue with vigorous steps, with a slightly unruly attitude.

Stepping on the land of his hometown, as a Chinese-American, he considers himself superior, so no matter who he looks at, he will subconsciously look down.

His special posture also attracted the attention of many people.

"who is he?"

"It's so arrogant. But why don't you seem to have seen it?"

Someone recognized Yang Xiangdong and said, "His name is Yang Xiangdong. His identity is not ordinary. He is the co-director of the Asia Fund under the Carlyle Investment Group. Basically, Carlyle's financing projects in our country have to be reviewed by him in the end." Let's make a decision."

Many small and medium-sized entrepreneurs in the tourism industry suddenly became short of breath, and looked at Yang Xiangdong expectantly.To be able to influence the investment strategy of a foreign-funded company like Carlyle, this is a proper funder father!
Although the money belonged to the company and not to Yang Xiangdong himself, in the eyes of many people, Yang Xiangdong's status was no less than that of any billionaire.

Because although he doesn't have much assets, he can decide who to distribute the resources in his hands to.

Shen Nanpeng saw Yang Xiangdong coming, so he brought Liang Jianzhang over.

"President Yang, long time no see."

Shen Nanpeng introduced to Liang Jianzhang: "Old Liang, this is Mr. Yang Xiangdong, the co-director of the Asia Fund under the Carlyle Investment Group. The original investment of the Carlyle Group was thanks to his secret assistance."

"Mr. Yang, this is Mr. Liang Jianzhang from Ctrip."

"Hello."

"Hello."

Liang Jianzhang shook hands with Yang Xiangdong and said, "Mr. Yang, thank you for supporting Ctrip's development."

Yang Xiangdong said: "I am very optimistic about the future of Ctrip, and I am even more optimistic about your team, that's why I recommended you to the company, so don't thank me, God helps those who help themselves."

Afterwards, Shen Nanpeng and Yang Xiangdong talked about the development of Ctrip. He came from the financial industry, so he was well aware of the urgency of capital.

However, Yang Xiangdong is not a fool. Any disturbance in the market can't be hidden from an extremely shrewd investor like him.

After Shen Nanpeng finished speaking, Yang Xiangdong asked straight to the point: "What's the matter with Rujia? I heard that because of Ji Qi's departure recently, you have been devastated?"

Shen Nanpeng quickly denied it, saying: "Ctrip has a first-mover advantage. We have been in the industry for two years. If Homeinns wants to catch up with us, it will not be successful overnight."

Yang Xiangdong did not continue to pursue the matter, but said lightly: "I will continue to pay attention to the changes in the situation, and you Ctrip must come up with a reliable response plan as soon as possible."

Shen Nanpeng nodded quickly, and said: "We are already formulating a plan. We have a first-mover advantage, and it is definitely not comparable to Home Inn."

He was very nervous.The biggest worry is that investors will lose confidence in Ctrip. When the shareholders withdraw their capital, it will be a disaster for the company.

Yang Xiangdong looked at Lu Yiming with malicious eyes.

He himself has no enmity with Lu Yiming, but Carlyle Investment has suffered losses in Lu Yiming's hands, so he, a senior wage earner, must clearly express his attitude and position, be anxious about what the leader is anxious about, and think what the leader thinks.

After all, the king worries about the labor of his ministers, and the king humiliates his ministers to death.

As for Yang Xiangdong's hostility, Lu Yiming naturally also felt it. The two people's eyes met, and there seemed to be sparks exploding in the air.

Lu Yiming patted Ji Qi's shoulder, pouted his lips in the direction of Yang Xiangdong, and said with a smile: "Here, the opponent is coming. It seems that the comer is not kind. Do you have confidence?"
