The deputy mayor of Nalinta City, Tori, along with the heads of four enterprises, led a welcoming team of over a hundred people, eagerly anticipating the visit from the Huaxia Business Group, who were coming for a tour and to explore investnt cooperation—only to find that there were just three people, and they all appeared to be particularly "young and promising."
The key issue was they were too young, and two of them were just attendants...
At that mont, Deputy Mayor Tori and the others had smiles on their faces that were a bit stiff and rigid.
They had originally expected a small group of fifteen, and even then, they had forced themselves to remain optimistic, hoping for a miracle.
Now they indeed had a "miracle"—just one Huaxia businessman. If four companies were to divide him, each would only get an arm or a leg...
"Damn Dilu City, damn Samba! Actually ambushed halfway and stole the guests ant for us, leaving just one young man to fool us! Damn it! I must report this to the higher-ups. I will not rest until this reaches the top! This is just too much bullying!"
Deputy Mayor Tori of Nalinta City gritted his teeth silently, filled with resentnt.
However, facing the approaching Huaxia guests, Mr. Tori considered his reputation and forced a smile.
The four enterprise heads behind Tori had smiles even less natural than his.
Bai Xiaosheng observed this and simply smiled.
He actually understood their feelings very well, but just because of that, he couldn’t loudly proclaim his abilities to comfort them.
Bai Xiaosheng wasn’t capable of doing such a thing either.
"Are you Deputy Mayor Tori? I am Bai, one of the mbers of the Huaxia Business Group this ti. Very pleased to et you," Bai Xiaosheng initiated.
In foreign customs, it’s common to directly call Asian people’s surna, so Bai Xiaosheng kept it simple and directly told them his surna. Anyway, when it cos to discussing cooperation and formal docunts later, his full na will appear in due ti.
Deputy Mayor Tori was filled with endless "hatred" towards the neighboring city’s Mr. Samba. In public, he absent-mindedly smiled and shook hands with Bai Xiaosheng, "Pleasure to et you. We’ve long looked forward to eting you, uh, we’re extrely honored to welco the Huaxia Business Group... that is, your arrival..."
Mr. Tori felt that his words lacked enthusiasm.
The lengthy, passionate welco speech he had prepared didn’t feel the sa when delivered to a group compared to just one person.
It was hard to say.
Mr. Tori hastily said a few pleasantries, seeing the young Huaxia man listening with a smile, unsure how much he understood, and then lost interest and withdrew his hand. He turned back and loudly reprimanded, "Band, honor guard, what are you doing! The guest is here!"
The deputy mayor’s voice imdiately brought the welcoming group to life.
The instrunts played, and dancing began.
All were local ethnic style elents.
Mr. Tori, under the cover of the noise, called over the four company heads and forced a smile to introduce them to Bai Xiaosheng.
"This is Mr. Filas." "This is Mr. Laimu." "This is Mr. Luka." "This is Mr. Kars."
The four entrepreneurs also cheerfully shook hands with Bai Xiaosheng amidst the "uproarious noise."
"Next, they will take you to tour the company, and you... communicate well," Mr. Tori said to Bai Xiaosheng. "I just received news; I have to go back to deal with so urgent matters, so I won’t disturb you here."
Actually, Mr. Tori didn’t feel like staying; after all, he was a dignified deputy mayor, yet here he was entertaining a young Huaxia businessman.
Looking at the other person’s age, he assud that the business he ran couldn’t be that large...
Not interesting, and a bit degrading.
Mr. Tori felt he should imdiately report to the mayor, formally protest to Dilu City, and appeal to higher officials. Perhaps more powerful Huaxia people would co, and then he could return without delay.
With such thoughts, he couldn’t stay.
"Mr. Tori, go ahead, we’re here."
"Yes, your matters are indeed very urgent."
"We will take good care of this Huaxia... honorable guest."
The few business leaders chid in, each with a touch of flattery.
Without the long-expected wealthy benefactor from the East, they had to graciously complint the local second-in-command.
Bai Xiaosheng kept his smile, watching these people.
He could understand this too...
Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying couldn’t help but exchange a glance, feeling that their visit seed quite unwelco, as the deputy mayor only stayed for a couple of sentences and left, while the enthusiasm of those companies was also more focused on the local officials.
Lin Weiwei felt a bit indignant and wanted to tell these people.
Bai Xiaosheng alone could rival ten or even twenty entrepreneurs, he should not be underestimated!
Of course, this was just a thought. Lin Weiwei wouldn’t really say it out loud.
The deputy mayor, Mr. Tori, left amid enthusiastic farewells, and as soon as he left, the welco ceremony was also withdrawn.
The four entrepreneurs, Filas, Laimu, Luka, and Kars, led so people to invite Bai Xiaosheng into the park.
On the way, the four of them still held on to their hopes and tentatively probed Bai Xiaosheng—
"Sir, what scale is your company within your business group?" Mr. Filas asked.
Bai Xiaosheng responded with a smile, "In this Huaxia Business Group, there are many companies comparable in scale to mine."
In terms of Zhenbei Group’s capacity in the Greater China Region, it could only be considered middle-range.
However, when it cos to the resources and connections Bai Xiaosheng has, it’s definitely among the very few at the top.
