Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2002 Don't Detour
Lin Daoqiu never thought of seeing Li Zhengnan when he came to Baodao this time, but sometimes things are out of his control.

In the evening, not long after Lin Daoqiu returned to the Grand Hotel, several luxury cars drove up to the entrance of the Grand Hotel.

When the people inside got out of the car, the person in charge of the Grand Hotel had already been waiting at the door for a long time.

You must know that the person in charge of this restaurant is not small at all, if you are just an idler, it is impossible to see him.

But the person who came today is not small at all. He is the director of Li Zhengnan's office, Wang Daonan, who can be said to be the closest and most confidant person around Li Zhengnan.

The reason why he was able to be valued by Li Zhengnan was entirely because he had a good relationship with Li Zhengnan's only son, and he went to the hospital to take care of him when he was sick. Since then, he has gained Li Zhengnan's extremely high trust.

"Thank you, take me to see Mr. Lin."

Wang Daonan just took a look at the person in charge, but even just casually looking at it like this can make the other party dare not take a breath.

"Director Wang, please."

The person in charge hurriedly led the way himself, not daring to ask the waiter next to him to do it for him.

When Wang Daonan came to the door of Lin Daoqiu's room, he waved to other people in the corridor.

Except for Wang Daonan's secretary, the other attendants and people in the hotel immediately retreated.

When Wang Daonan knocked on the door of Lin Daoqiu's room, it was Fang Jinsheng who opened the door.

Fang Jinsheng didn't know Wang Daonan, so he asked politely.

"Who are you looking for?"

"Are you Fang Jinsheng, Mr. Lin's assistant? I'm Wang Daonan."

In Treasure Island, it is basically impossible for Wang Daonan to say his full title, because that is not necessary at all, and he only needs to say his name to get through without hindrance.

But Fang Jinsheng didn't know who Wang Daonan was at all, so after Wang Daonan finished speaking, Fang Jinsheng still looked at him suspiciously.

"This is the director of Chief Li's office."

Wang Daonan's secretary looked at Fang Jinsheng impatiently and said.

Originally, the secretary thought that Fang Jinsheng would be shocked immediately after knowing Wang Daonan's identity, and then he would be respectful in front of Wang Daonan like everyone else.

But what he didn't expect was that after Fang Jinsheng finished listening, he just oh.

"Wait a minute, I'll go in and make an announcement."

After Fang Jinsheng finished speaking, he closed the door, which made Wang Daonan's secretary very angry.

"What kind of attitude does he dare to treat you like this, I'll go..."

Before the secretary finished speaking, Wang Daonan turned around and gave him a hard look.

"Do you think that as Mr. Lin, you need to be respectful to me?"

Being scolded by Wang Daonan, the secretary quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake.

Wang Daonan was very loyal to Li Zhengnan. If Fang Jinsheng treated Li Zhengnan with such an attitude today, then Wang Daonan would not be what he is now.

After a while, Fang Jinsheng opened the door again and invited Wang Daonan in.

"Xiao Xu, you and Assistant Fang go downstairs to have a cup of coffee first."

Wang Daonan obviously wanted to talk to Lin Daoqiu when he said this, and it was the kind that he didn't want others to be present.

"Understood the director."

When Wang Daonan came to the living room, he found that Lin Daoqiu did not get up, but sat on the sofa and looked at himself.

It can be said that ever since Wang Daonan followed Li Zhengnan, there were countless people who flattered him every day. Over the years, he really had never met anyone who dared to treat him like this.

"Hi Director Wang, please sit down."

Although Lin Daoqiu didn't know Wang Daonan well, he also knew that the position held by the other party must be someone Li Zhengnan trusted very much. It was basically no problem to regard him as Li Zhengnan's substitute.

If Lin Daoqiu wanted to be respectful to Wang Daonan, wouldn't he be the other party's grandson in front of Li Zhengnan?
"Officer Li knew that Mr. Lin was visiting Baodao, so he specially asked me to come to condolences to Mr. Lin."

Putting a box on the table, Wang Daonan walked to the sofa opposite Lin Daoqiu and sat down.

"I didn't expect Chief Li to still remember my name. I'm really flattered."

Although Lin Daoqiu said so, but looking at the expression on his face, he knew that he definitely didn't think so.

Wang Daonan naturally knew everything about Lin Daoqiu and Li Zhengnan, so he could understand Lin Daoqiu's hospitality.

"I've seen "Alien Invaders" filmed by Mr. Lin for Baodao. It's very good. It's expected to be released in Hollywood this year."

Wang Daonan came to Lin Daoqiu today, and it sounded like he wanted to talk about "Alien Invaders", because the funeral was over, and Li Zhengnan needed something to boost his wealth.

Although Li Zhengnan has already taken the big position at this time, it can be said that his strength has not been completely stabilized, and there are still many people coveting his position, waiting to kick him down.

For example, Li Huantong and Hao Haoxiao, these two guys are the strongest and have great ambitions. If they are not careful, they will really succeed.

This is why after Lin Daoqiu met Li Huantong in the morning, Li Zhengnan immediately sent Wang Daonan over when he heard the news.

"If Director Wang didn't mention it, I would hardly remember this movie."

Lin Daoqiu smiled, and his dissatisfaction could be heard from his tone.

"A lot of things happened last year, so the release of "Alien Invaders" was temporarily terminated. Now the matter has passed, so we hope to implement the release as soon as possible."

It sounds like Wang Daonan is here to talk about the release of "Alien Invaders", but if Lin Daoqiu really thinks so, he is very wrong.

Whether a movie is released or not is not important to Li Zhengnan at all, it is just a icing on the cake for him, even if it is not released, it is no big deal to him.

The reason why Li Zhengnan sent Wang Daonan to see Lin Daoqiu today was that he hoped that Lin Daoqiu would not help Li Huantong or fall to that side, because this would add unnecessary pressure to Li Zhengnan.

"I shouldn't be in charge of the release of the movie, after all, this is not Xiangjiang..."

"Director Wang, we smart people don't talk dark words, so don't make detours here. What is your Excellency looking for me today?"

Lin Daoqiu didn't like playing sloppy with each other, and he didn't like talking with Wang Daonan.

Wang Daonan originally planned to make a detour first, and then slowly get into the main topic.

But what he didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu would ask him to get straight to the point before he even said a word, which made him a bit uncomfortable for a person who was used to talking around the corner.
