Chapter 492 Chapter 520, Wait or Not? (ask for monthly ticket)
Zheng Dapeng is 32 years old this year, and his marriage is a concern for Zheng Dongshan.

In fact, in Zheng Dongshan's eyes, his son Zheng Dapeng is a waste of time, so he hopes that Zheng Dapeng will get married and have children as soon as possible, so that he can focus on cultivating the next generation while he is not too old. Unfortunately, although Zheng Dapeng has many girlfriends, there is no one he can marry.

Therefore, when Zheng Dapeng took the initiative to ask him to propose marriage, Zheng Dongshan really considered it seriously.

"Is the girl Kang Jingchun's granddaughter?"

Zheng Dongshan asked.

"Yeah, he's also a somewhat famous host."

"My identity and background are absolutely clean!"

Zheng Dapeng knew that what his father cared about most was the woman's identity and background, so he emphasized it.

"Is he present at Kang Jingchun's birthday party?" Zheng Dongshan asked again.

"Here I am."

Zheng Dapeng nodded and asked, "Dad, why don't you go over and take a look now?"

"Xiao Liu, what's my next schedule?"

Zheng Dongshan did not respond immediately, but looked at Xiao Liu who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"Boss, I don't have any work arrangements today, but I have to go to the city government for a meeting at 9:30 tomorrow morning."

Xiao Liu turned his head and answered.

"Ah."

Zheng Dongshan looked at the time on his watch. It was half past ten in the morning. He asked Zheng Dapeng, "What time does the birthday banquet start?"

"It should start, but it won't end too soon."

"It's still not too late for us to go there now."

Seeing that his father really wanted to go over, Zheng Dapeng immediately perked up.

"alright."

"Go and see the old comrade."

Zheng Dongshan nodded. The reason why he agreed to go over was firstly to see the girl that Zheng Dapeng mentioned, and secondly to show his face.

There must be many old or current employees of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant at today's birthday party. Currently, Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant is in a critical period of reform, and Zheng Dongshan also needs the support of employees. He can attend Kang Jingchun's birthday party to gain some goodwill and listen to the voices of the employees.

"okay!"

Zheng Dapeng responded with a smile and subconsciously sped up the car. He was in a rather embarrassing state when he left just now, but now that he was going back he had his father's support, so he was naturally confident.

"Leader, should we inform Deputy Director Kang of the Logistics Department in advance? He should be on the scene as well."

Secretary Xiao Liu asked.

"Well, say hello."

Zheng Dongshan nodded. He was not the kind of person who liked to launch surprise attacks. What's more, he was the director of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant. In terms of rank, he was on the same level as the mayor of Xiangyang, a prefecture-level city. Naturally, he had to inform them in advance before going anywhere.

"Ok."

Secretary Liu nodded in agreement, immediately found Kang Zhichao's phone number in the address book and called him, telling him that Zheng Dongshan was coming over.

After hanging up the phone, Secretary Liu called the hotel again. This kind of thing does not require the leader's instructions. Leaders of Zheng Dongshan's level have to inform the other party in advance no matter which unit they go to.

Ballroom.

A small ceremony was held before the birthday banquet officially began. The ceremony was hosted by the well-known host Li Manni, who caused a sensation at the scene when she came on stage.

The guests held up their mobile phones to shoot videos. It was obvious that no one expected that they would be able to attend a birthday party and see a celebrity host who they could only see on TV.

When Kang Zhichao received the call, the ceremony had just ended and the banquet was about to begin.

When he heard that Zheng Dongshan was coming, he quickly stopped the waiter who was about to notify the waiter to serve the food: "Wait a moment, the food will be served later!"

"Zhichao, what are you doing?"

“So many guests are waiting!”

Seeing that Kang Zhichao actually stopped the waiter, Kang Zhifei frowned immediately. It was normal procedure to start the banquet after the ceremony.

"Brother, things have changed a bit."

"I just received a call from Secretary Liu, Director Zheng is coming over."

Kang Zhichao responded with a serious expression, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

"If he wants to come, he can come."

“Are so many people waiting for him?”

Kang Huimin rolled her eyes when she heard the conversation between the two, and then yelled at the waiter, "Hurry up and serve the food!"

"and many more!!"

Kang Zhichao tried to stop her again, and said to Kang Huimin with a stern face, "Second sister, please stop making trouble!"

"The person who is coming is Director Zheng. It would be fine if he didn't notify us, but since he has already notified us, there is no reason not to wait!"

"What's the big deal about the factory director? Why should we wait for him?"

"Besides, who would come to celebrate someone's birthday on short notice?"

"I don't think he wanted to come here before. Maybe he came here because he knew Xiao Yang was here!"

Zheng Dongshan naturally has a lot of face in Kang Zhichao's eyes. In fact, Zheng Dongshan is the person with the highest social status among those Kang Zhichao knows.

In Kang Zhichao's opinion, the fact that Director Zheng, who was so busy with his work, could come to celebrate his father's birthday was a great honor to the Kang family, so it was polite to wait for him to arrive before starting the banquet.

However, Zheng Dongshan had no face in front of Kang Huimin. After all, Kang Huimin was not from Xiangyang and her circle was not here. What's more, Yang Hao was still present. Was it appropriate to let a billionaire with a net worth of hundreds of billions wait for the banquet to begin?

Therefore, Tang Huimin's standing up at this time was also considered as trying to please Yang Hao, and her words were not polite at all.

"Second sister, you don't understand at all."

Kang Zhichao didn't want to argue with his second sister Kang Huimin, so he looked at his father Kang Jingchun and said, "Dad, say something."

"Director Zheng is coming to celebrate your birthday. Should we wait a while?"

"I will go on stage to inform the guests, and I think everyone will understand."

After Kang Zhichao finished speaking, he was about to get the microphone. In his opinion, his father Kang Jingchun would definitely support him. After all, he was also an employee of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant.

As a result, Kang Jingchun slammed the table and said, "There are 200 to 300 people here. How can you let them wait for one person?"

"Don't say he's a factory director. Even if a senior official wanted to come today, I wouldn't wait!"

"Zhifei, tell the waiter to serve the food!"

Kang Jingchun turned his head to look at his eldest son Kang Zhifei, then glared at Kang Zhichao: "Your second sister is right, there is no such thing as a birthday celebration at the last minute. If he wants to come, he can come. I won't wait for him!"

"exactly!"

Kang Huimin curled her lips and complained: "If you want to flatter, don't bring so many people with you!"

"This……"

Kang Zhichao was speechless, he really didn't expect that his father Kang Jingchun would have such an attitude. He remembered that his father always told him that he must have a good relationship with the Zheng father and son, but today his father's behavior was very "abnormal".

Although Kang Zhichao felt that his father's decision was not correct, everyone seemed to be against it, so he had no choice but to compromise. In fact, the hotel waiters had long been impatient. When the hotel held large banquets such as wedding banquets or birthday banquets, these waiters only hoped that the banquet would start quickly and end quickly so that they could complete the aftermath work quickly.

So after Kang Jingchun made his position clear, the waiters quickly served the dishes.

Except for the main table, the other guests didn't know what was going on. After the dishes were served, they started eating while chatting and laughing.

From time to time, some people would come to the main table to toast, and some would look for opportunities to take photos with Li Manni.

Yang Hao was also the main person these people toasted to. They all wanted to take this opportunity to establish a relationship with this wealthy man, Yang Hao.

The birthday banquet was very lively. The banquet at this hotel was quite good. Many people ate with relish. Almost every dish on the table was half eaten, and some dishes were almost finished.

Looking at the leftovers on the table, Kang Zhichao felt very uncomfortable.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to curry some favor, but in the end no one cooperated.

After a while, when Zheng Dong arrived, all that was left on the table were leftovers. Should I use the leftovers to entertain others?
This is so rude!
"Dad, do you think we should have another table?"

"When Director Zheng comes, there will be no food to eat."

Kang Zhichao leaned close to his father and asked in a low voice.

"I don't think it's necessary."

“There are still a lot of dishes.”

Kang Jingchun pointed at the dining table and said with some disdain: "Who made him come late? It's already eleven o'clock. How can he have time to attend the birthday party?"

"That's it!"

"Why should we give him a separate table?"

Kang Huimin immediately followed suit.

"Zhichao, if you really want to flatter your boss, then pay for a separate table for him!"

Kang Huifen also joined in. She also looked down on Kang Zhichao's behavior. Of course, this was only secondary. The main reason was that she found that such a statement seemed to be "politically correct."

Yang Hao is still at the main table, but you keep saying that you want to wait for others. Does that mean that Yang Hao's status is not as good as the other party's?

Kang Zhichao sighed in frustration after being criticized again. He returned to his seat and whispered to his wife Wang Huixin: "Why don't we just pay for a table?"

"If you have money, go ahead and order it!"

Wang Huixin rolled her eyes. This birthday banquet was organized by Kang Zhifei. After all, he was worth tens of millions, so the banquet standards were quite high. Each table cost 3888 yuan, which was basically the ceiling in Xiangyang, a prefecture-level city.

Wang Huixin was already somewhat dissatisfied with the man's behavior of flattering Zheng Dapeng, so how could she pay this money?

In her opinion, Kang Zhichao was simply out of his mind. He ignored Yang Hao, the true god, and went to lick the Zheng father and son. There was definitely something wrong with his brain.

If it weren't for the birthday party, Wang Huixin would definitely have been arguing with Kang Zhichao by now.

Seeing that his wife also disagreed, Kang Zhichao frowned and scolded: "You really have long hair and short knowledge!"

"What's wrong with spending some money to treat the factory director to a meal? This kind of opportunity doesn't come every day!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his cell phone rang. It was Secretary Liu calling.

Kang Zhichao quickly took his cell phone and answered the call. Secretary Liu told him on the phone that Zheng Dongshan would arrive in five minutes.

After hanging up the phone, Kang Zhichao quickly trotted out of the banquet hall.

"As a factory director, look how busy Zhichao is!"

"Huixin, you have to talk about Zhichao later. He is such a flatterer!"

"Zhichao flatters like this, and he's still only a deputy director. It's obvious that flattery is useless."

Seeing Kang Zhichao running away so attentively, sisters Kang Huimin and Kang Huifen couldn't help but complain.

Kang Zhifei secretly observed Yang Hao. In fact, if Yang Hao had not been there, he might have agreed with Kang Zhichao's approach just now, because Kang Zhifei's company was initially started with the support of Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant. At present, he occasionally has some cooperation with Xiangyang Iron and Steel Plant, so it is also beneficial for him to have a good relationship with Zheng Dongshan.

But things are different today.

Although Yang Hao has not expressed his opinion from beginning to end, he is a wealthy man worth hundreds of billions. If we only talk about wealth, he crushes Zheng Dongshan.

Therefore, it is indeed inappropriate to let Yang Hao wait for Zheng Dongshan to come before starting the meal. Doing so will invisibly lower Yang Hao's status. Kang Zhifei will not do such a stupid thing.

At this moment, Yang Hao was still chatting calmly with Huang Qing beside him, as if he was unaware of Zheng Dongshan's upcoming arrival, and he also ignored Kang Zhichao's various reactions.

"Brother Hao, the opening time will be next Saturday!"

Yang Hao and Huang Qing were really talking about business. The bar had been renovated and was now waiting to open.

Huang Qing selected several dates and asked Yang Hao to choose one from them, but opening a bar involves a task.

Yang Hao naturally wanted to complete this task as soon as possible, so he chose the nearest day.

That is next Saturday.

"Brother Hao, although next Saturday is a good day, the time for promotion will be a bit tight."

Ye Wei on the side talked about the disadvantages of opening next Saturday.

In fact, Huang Qing also asked for her opinion, and Ye Wei felt that it would be better to open the store in half a month, so that there would be enough time for promotion and preheating.

“Publicity is not the problem.”

Yang Hao smiled and shook his head: "Have you forgotten what I do?"

"How about this, during the first week of opening, we'll invite a celebrity to perform every night."

For others, publicity is indeed a big problem, but for Yang Hao, publicity is not a problem.

He is the boss of Maitian Entertainment and Tianmei Media. He has so many big stars under his company. If they have schedule, he will ask them to come to the scene to show their support. If they don’t have schedule, he will record a video and post it on the Internet for promotion.

With so many big stars supporting the bar, the bar’s reputation will spread quickly and there’s nothing to worry about.

"I am too narrow-minded."

Ye Wei reacted immediately. Before, a celebrity opened his own bar and went to the opening ceremony in person. The bar would quickly become well-known in the local area, which was the best publicity.

However, the cost of hiring a celebrity is too high, so Ye Wei never thought about it in this direction before.

After hearing what Yang Hao said, she immediately understood.

For Yang Hao, a big shot in the entertainment industry, celebrities are not a scarce resource at all.

"Who is Hao going to invite to support you?"

Huang Qing asked.

"I'll have to check their schedules and give you a list later."

Of course Yang Hao didn’t know the schedules of the company’s artists, so he needed to ask Sister Cui about this.

While the three were talking, Kang Zhichao came back, following a man in a grey executive jacket with an attentive look on his face. On the man's left was Zheng Dapeng, who was stiffening his neck. The other man was looking down at Yang Hao with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, forming a smug arc.

"That's Director Zheng, right?"

Ye Wei curled her lips slightly and complained in a low voice: "For him, Uncle Manni actually wanted Brother Hao to wait. He really has a problem with his brain and can't tell the difference between the big and small kings!"

Yang Hao smiled but said nothing. In fact, he could understand Kang Zhichao. After all, he was working under him.

Huang Qing just glanced at him casually. She was too lazy to pay attention to this trivial matter. While everyone's attention was attracted, this sister calmly put one hand on Yang Hao's thigh under the table, and then moved it a few centimeters inward.
