Chapter 346 Chapter 345, The Chamber of Commerce President's Blind Date (Second Update)

"Brother Chu, give me..."

The next morning, Lu Ming handed over a cigarette with a smile. He didn't do it on purpose. He was so careless that he didn't realize that Lin Chu had been abstinent for more than 24 hours.

"No, I've quit smoking."

"The remaining cigarettes at home are all in the warehouse. If you want to smoke, go get them yourself. They are all free for you. But if you want to smoke, stay a hundred meters away from me. From now on, my home is a no-smoking zone."

Lin Chu said with a grin.

I actually felt an inexplicable sense of superiority after quitting smoking.

Every man knows that smoking is definitely bad. The worst aspect of it is that it reduces the quality of life after middle age. Every man has thought about quitting smoking at least once, but most of them can't quit.

To borrow a classic line - How ruthless does a man have to be to quit smoking?
After all, nicotine has permanently changed the brain's neural circuits. Only by completely covering them up and establishing new pleasure neural circuits can it be considered a success.

And after that, you will face countless temptations to pick up a cigarette again.

Especially when facing difficulties in life.

This is nearly a lifelong battle.

Anyone who dares to initiate a fight is a warrior himself.

Hearing Lin Chu's words, Lu Ming looked at him in disbelief, and even felt like he was listening to a joke. However, seeing Lin Chu's serious expression, he took a deep breath and silently took back the cigarette that was handed to him.

"Hey, how long will you quit?"

"Seven days? Or a month?"

Lin Chu waved his hands and scolded with a smile: "Get lost! If you say you want to quit, then quit. If I smoke one more cigarette, I will call you daddy a hundred times!"

Lu Ming:......

The smile froze on his face.

Oh my god... so cruel?

A moment later, he sent a message to the core brother group.

"Shocked: Brother Chu said he wanted to quit smoking! He also said that if I smoke one more cigarette, I'll call me dad a hundred times!"

Wang Zhefei: "Thinking of the two hundred yuan he lost to me back then, hehe, Furong Wang is really delicious!"

Liu Junfeng: "@Lin Chu, what's wrong? Are the bananas ripe? Haha..."

Hu Pingan: "You can use cigars instead, that stuff doesn't go into your lungs."

Zhang Peng: "Forget it, it's more harmful... Let's support smoking cessation first, one day at a time."

Various messages soon emerged in the group...

After Lin Chu glanced around, a smile appeared on his lips. He took a selfie of his six-pack abs and said, "You can lick it. You're welcome. I want to be a self-disciplined male god."

Then, naturally, he was ridiculed by the crowd.

But Lin Chu didn't care and continued sweating in the gym.

Pain is naturally still painful.

Occasionally when I get the urge to smoke, I feel so anxious and my temper becomes bad. All I can do is increase my intensity and lift weights!
But this is the test of willpower.

Say goodbye to a part of your past once and for all.

……

in the afternoon.

Longcheng, an apartment building formerly known as the "Fortune Building", has now been renamed the "Flying Building", and the golden signboard of the "Low-altitude Aircraft Technology Association" has also been hung up.

Accompanied by the sound of firecrackers, Lin Chu took off the red silk.

This is also considered a chamber of commerce.

However, Dubai currently already has various domestic chambers of commerce, including the Chamber of Commerce for Investment Promotion established by a prince previously, as well as chambers of commerce from many provinces in China, including Guangdong Province, Fujian Province, Zhejiang Province... and so on.

Lin Chu had no intention of engaging in internal competition with them, so he simply opened up a new path and named it after his professional field.

Of course, I am the president.

Those who cut the ribbon with him at this moment included the local prince of Dubai and personnel from relevant departments, as well as business leaders from various factions in the country and representatives stationed abroad. The standard was quite high.

Lin Chu had a faint smile on his face throughout the whole process, appearing decent and steady. His speech was also very proper, valuing harmony, and he seemed to have no edges at all.

This is completely different from the impression he gave people before, when he used thunderous means to sweep away the entire fraudulent company industry in Dubai. But obviously, this style is closer to the "correct approach" under mainstream values.

Thinking about his previous MBA class at Peking University, when he had the unyielding and counterattacking mentality of "I must sit on the podium next time I give a speech", and the countless times he later experienced sitting on the podium to give speeches, Lin Chu even felt that "youth is over" at this moment.

No longer that young and reckless.

There is no longer the fighting spirit to "fight back".

He is the boss himself.

Counterattack? Against whom?

Fighting spirit? Fight against whom?
It's like a car on the highway, speeding up rapidly from zero to 120 km/h. When the speed reaches 120 km/h, it's time to stabilize, otherwise the car will overturn.

"After I finish this, are you free tonight?"

In the empty space with few people around, Rashid pulled Lin Chu's arm a little stealthily, leaned close to his ear, and spoke in a very low voice.

"You're looking for me, of course. What's the matter?"

Lin Chu smiled and agreed as if nothing had happened.

"Come to my house tonight. When this is over, come back with me and I'll introduce someone to you."

Rashid's voice was even lower, with a sweet smile on his face.

This smile made Lin Chu instinctively feel that something was wrong, and he subconsciously thought that he was going to bring up something old, such as introducing one of his sisters to him.

This combination of interests is actually inevitable.

The sovereign fund has invested in itself. The proportion is not large, but the absolute value is not small, one billion US dollars.

At the same time, the low-altitude economic industry, as one of the next focuses, also carries the expectations of both the domestic and Dubai sides. As the leader, it is highly likely that we will be used as a "honey trap" at this time, and it is also very logical.

Looking into his eyes, Lin Chu instinctively wanted to refuse, but Rashid had already said, "You have agreed just now. It is a happy decision. You go ahead and do your work. I will come to you when you are done."

He patted Lin Chu's shoulder, winked, and left with a smile.

Lin Chu shook his head and smiled, feeling calm.

The whole process was carried out step by step, and various people were greeted and contact information was exchanged. Finally, it came to an end, and Rashid came over again.

Lin Chu had no choice but to get in the car with him, but he was thinking about this matter in his mind.

From the perspective of interests, it is naturally a good thing.

However, this kind of blind date feeling is still quite uncomfortable.

Moreover, his emotional experience, which was like a quagmire, had now reached a point where the entropy could not increase any further. If he met a woman with an even stronger status and position, it would be a real mess!
Even though the law here does not stipulate monogamy.

"You know me, I...my life before was very exciting, uh, even chaotic."

Sitting in the back seat of the extended Lincoln, Lin Chu spoke somewhat frankly.

Rashid just waved his hand and smiled: "It's normal for men to have some fun before marriage. Once they get married, or even become fathers, they will naturally become mature and stable..."

"My sister is one quarter Chinese. She is absolutely beautiful, even prettier than a supermodel. She is also a top student and a math genius. She graduated from the Department of Mathematics at Stanford University..."

"If we weren't related by blood, I would still be moved!"

“And this time she wanted to take the initiative to get to know you, but there are some rules… so please ask me to invite you to meet privately and make friends.

At the same time, she is also very knowledgeable about low-altitude aircraft. It seems that her graduate thesis was about this, but I don’t really understand it either. You can ask her in person later.”

Rashid introduced enthusiastically.

Lin Chu looked at him doubtfully.

How could it be such a coincidence?
However, on second thought, with so many children in the royal family, it doesn't seem to be particularly difficult to tailor and select a daughter who is compatible with his current career.

It’s hard to say, she’s not even a “daughter” but a female agent.

Of course, given the closeness between Rashid and myself, he should not lie to me, unless the source of his information is also wrong.

Well, just treat it as an ordinary blind date.
