Chapter 263: 259. Invitation to the Main Venue (Please vote for monthly tickets during the double-point period!)
Zhao Hu and Sun Gaixin were in completely different moods at this moment; he was feeling incredibly exhilarated, and he felt deeply fortunate for the choice he had made previously regarding the matter of Huo Zhiyuan.
Perhaps he hadn't known about the situation with Tian Yaohui before, but now he was clear on it; the more he understood these things, the more he felt a sense of dread toward Zhang Ran.
In a short period, Tian Yaohui had directly collapsed, not even lasting a month in Zhang Ran's hands.
Moreover, not only that, but Tian Yaohui had also been imprisoned; Zhao Hu might not be able to fully comprehend what was implied by this, but he knew that although Zhang Ran had disappeared for twenty-eight years, his influence remained immense.
Therefore, when He Yong called to instruct him to do this last night, Zhao Hu did not hesitate at all.
At eleven o'clock, Liu Lu prepared to get off work and go home to cook; her working hours were very regular now, and as long as there were no emergencies, she would leave right on time.
Just as Liu Lu walked out of the hospital building, she happened to see a somewhat familiar figure; this figure had one arm hanging in a sling, looking as if they had just finished getting bandaged.
This person also saw Liu Lu and instinctively dodged away, cautiously walking out through another exit.
Liu Lu was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.
She had only just heard Qian Li talk about Sun Gaixin last night, and today Sun Gaixin's arm was broken.
If this wasn't done by Zhang Ran, Liu Lu wouldn't believe it even if she died.
Liu Lu was also somewhat shocked by Zhang Ran's methods, but at the same time, a trace of security welled up deep in her heart.
If she encountered such a stranger, Liu Lu would definitely stay as far away as possible, but if it were her own family, then Liu Lu felt even more at ease; this way, she wouldn't have to fear others bullying her own kin.
At the same time, Liu Lu was also a bit curious about how exactly Zhang Ran had done it; why was Sun Gaixin now acting like a mouse seeing a cat when he saw her, so afraid?
Once upon a time, when she and her husband went to Sun Gaixin's home, they were always cautious, and Sun Gaixin's whole family looked down their noses at them; now, the positions had been reversed.
However, Liu Lu quickly recovered; her main priority now was to go home and cook.
Upon returning home, she saw Zhang Ran leisurely drinking tea, and Huo Zhiyuan was sitting on the side chatting with Zhang Ran as usual.
Now, Liu Lu increasingly felt that Huo Zhiyuan's presence couldn't just be for the sake of repaying a debt; did repaying a debt require coming over every single day?
Did a company as large as Kangshilan have nothing to do all day long?
Did Huo Zhiyuan have so much spare time?
However, Liu Lu also knew that these matters were not for her, as a daughter-in-law, to manage, so she could only pretend not to see.
Moreover, Huo Zhiyuan was very good to her; now, Liu Lu didn't need to buy cosmetics or anything else, and things she used to be reluctant to use now had to be given away to others, otherwise they wouldn't be used up at all and would be wasted.
It was also because of these cosmetics that Liu Lu's popularity in the hospital had become better and better; after all, many nurses had received cosmetics gifted by Liu Lu.
One had to know, could the things Huo Zhiyuan gave to Liu Lu be bad?
They were all top-tier cosmetics that those young nurses couldn't bear to buy, and even if they gritted their teeth to buy them, they were reluctant to use much.
So now, whenever Liu Lu had even the slightest matter, these young nurses would eagerly help, which made Liu Lu increasingly idle, and the head nurse also pretended not to see, as she had also received gifts.
At Biaoxue Company, Zhang Sicheng looked at Wang Tao, who had walked in with a strange expression, and asked, "Manager Wang, what's wrong? Why that expression?"
Wang Tao raised the invitation in his hand and said, "Manager Zhang, the invitation for this Internet Conference has arrived."
Zhang Sicheng said, "It arrived, so it arrived; is that worth this expression? Although our company isn't large in scale, we are located in Shanghai and are an internet company; isn't it normal to receive an invitation?"
Zhang Sicheng was truly baffled by Wang Tao; just as he said, although the company's scale wasn't large, receiving an invitation was normal; was Wang Tao really worth such a strange expression?
Wang Tao handed over the invitation and said, "Manager Zhang, you had better take a close look; this is not an invitation for the sub-venue."
Zhang Sicheng took it and couldn't help but be shocked; he understood why Wang Tao had that expression—this was an invitation for the main venue.
Class exists at all times, and the Internet Conference is no exception.
This Internet Conference was divided into two venues: the main venue and the sub-venue; apart from needing to attend the opening ceremony together, they would separate for discussions afterward.
Those at the main venue were all internet titans, and their enterprises were at the very least worth over ten billion.
After all, the things they discussed were completely different from what some small internet companies discussed.
Although the boundary between the two venues wasn't very clear, and at certain times, some big-shot figures from the main venue would also go over to the sub-venue to make an appearance, or even conduct certain collaborations with some small companies.
But as long as the people at the sub-venue had any sense, they basically wouldn't disturb the big shots at the main venue.
Now that a small company like theirs had actually received an invitation to the main venue, it made Zhang Sicheng and Wang Tao somewhat shocked.
"Could there be a mistake?" Zhang Sicheng said instinctively, then he realized it definitely couldn't be wrong, because his name and the name of Biaoxue Company were on it.
Zhang Sicheng then had a guess in his heart: could this still be because of his old man?
But thinking about it, that was impossible; although his family now held shares in the new Yaotian Pharmaceutical, that was just an industry, and it basically had nothing to do with the internet side.
The most critical thing was the time of Zhang Ran's disappearance; the Huaxia internet hadn't developed yet, and although Zhang Ran's 'predictions' were accurate, these were, after all, things without time.
Basically, the current internet titans all rose to power after Zhang Ran disappeared; there shouldn't be any intersection, right?
"Forget it, don't worry about it; this is also an opportunity for us. We can take this chance to build connections and see if we can collaborate with some big shots; if we can, it would be a great thing for our Biaoxue Company."
"Maybe we can really go public in the future!" The more Zhang Sicheng thought about it, the more excited he became.
Wang Tao also said, "Indeed, if we can collaborate with some big shots this time, it would indeed be a great thing for our company. However, Manager Zhang, we cannot collaborate without any bottom line; we must have a set of rules."
Actually, Wang Tao's thoughts were the same as Zhang Sicheng's; because he didn't know about Zhang Ran's situation, he was even more certain than Zhang Sicheng.
Moreover, Zhang Sicheng might not be very concerned about the last matter with the Weiteng Game Division, or perhaps Zhang Sicheng didn't realize the unreasonable aspects of the matter at all; after all, he could only be considered a novice in business right now.
The last time the Weiteng Game Division acted in such a half-hearted way, it really surprised Wang Tao, and he couldn't understand it; this was definitely not their usual way of doing things, but they did it just like that at their Biaoxue Company.
There must have been other things happening, and it was very likely related to Zhang Sicheng's young father.
But Wang Tao didn't say anything more; this was a good thing for the company.
Zhang Sicheng also agreed with Wang Tao's statement, and next, he began to carefully discuss the rules of the matter with Wang Tao, coming up with a suitable price point.
However, Zhang Sicheng didn't forget to call his wife to say he wouldn't be going; on this point, Zhang Sicheng had always done well.
