Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 1092 The Leader's Attitude, Rhine River Pharmaceutical Group (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets)
After parking their car at the Yanjing Hotel, Fang Yan and his group walked easily towards the place where the banquet had been held.

Quite a few people have already arrived, and they're all chatting here.

Quite a few people came back in the same batch.

Director Liao was surrounded by the crowd and couldn't get away from the scene at all.

His former secretary, Zhou, has been promoted and transferred. Now, he has another secretary by his side, named Gao Han.

He was one of Director Liao's secretaries before he turned 28 this year, and naturally took over after Secretary Zhou left.

Just then, he saw Fang Yan and the others walk in and reminded Director Liao.

Director Liao glanced at Fang Yan, then gave Gao Han a wink. Gao Han then walked over, while Liao continued chatting with the group of overseas Chinese businessmen.

"Dean Dong, Director Fang, Mr. Hu," Gao Han greeted Fang Yan and the others as he approached.

"Secretary Gao, what instructions does Director Liao have?" the dean asked Secretary Gao.

Secretary Gao glanced around, and everyone immediately understood. They chuckled and moved to a relatively secluded spot, where no one else could hear them, before Secretary Gao spoke:
"Director Liao said that Director Fang's secret formula cannot be taken out; otherwise, it's just a hollow title used to try and get something for nothing."

Fang Yan and the others exchanged glances and a look.

Fang Yan had guessed this when he came before, and the director knew it very well. They were all old revolutionaries, how could they not understand these intricacies?

“I understand that. Are there any other instructions?” Fang Yan asked Secretary Gao.

Secretary Gao said:
"Other collaborations are easy to discuss. There's no need to expect to finalize anything tonight. Just express your intention. There are many people back this time. If one person can't reach an agreement, there are others. Just hold the line."

Fang Yan nodded.

Then he asked:

"Are there any accommodation arrangements for them here?"

Secretary Gao immediately realized what was happening and said:

"Oh, Director Fang, you mean Grandpa He You?"

Fang Yan nodded slightly in confirmation.

Secretary Gao said:
"He and his family members who returned have all been accommodated in a hotel. And after our investigation and questioning, he is indeed your maternal grandfather's younger brother, Zhan Laosi."

It turned out to be his maternal grandfather's younger brother, who was also his maternal great-uncle.

“However, quite a few people came back from their home this time, and he and that Huang Qiming…” Secretary Gao hesitated before continuing.

Fang Yan immediately realized what was happening and said:
"I understand. It's best not to bring him home."

"Mm." Secretary Gao nodded with a smile.

Fang Yan then realized that Secretary Gao and Secretary Zhou did indeed have different speaking styles.

This person likes to not say everything in a sentence.

Only after hearing Fang Yan's explanation did he seem to have a switch flipped, and he continued speaking to Fang Yan:

"However, if he wants to go alone, or just to pay a visit, that's only natural. We believe Director Fang can handle the situation well."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yan said:
"Thank you for your trust, leader."

Secretary Gao smiled and then started talking to Lao Hu about the cooperation.

There were also many things to be aware of, but Lao Hu had already prepared for this. He was a seasoned veteran in the business world, and he had done a very thorough job of making preparations. Hearing Secretary Gao's reminder, Lao Hu nodded repeatedly.

After he finished speaking, Secretary Gao noticed that the crowd had grown considerably, and Director Liao was now completely surrounded. He quickly added:

"That's all for now. Director Liao has some things to attend to, so I'll go and go with him."

“Okay, you’re busy,” Fang Yan and the others replied.

Secretary Gao nodded, then jogged over to Director Liao's side.

"It seems our leader is aware that these people are up to no good!" Old Hu said with a smile to Fang Yan.

Fang Yan nodded; in truth, he wasn't surprised at all.

The dean said from the side:

“Having lived abroad for a long time, and with the entire family having established themselves overseas, the chain of interests involved is quite large. It’s not something he can do as he pleases. Perhaps there’s something going on with a younger member of the family.”

"But regardless of whether he had no choice or not, it's definitely not going to work if he tries to get the secret formula from you."

Now that they clearly understand the leader's thoughts, Fang Yan and the others can act without any more restraint.

Not long after, Li Chengzhu, an old acquaintance of Fang Yan and his friends, arrived. As soon as she entered, she noticed Lao Hu and Fang Yan. Then, she immediately walked straight over.

"Long time no see!" Li Chengzhu greeted everyone warmly as soon as he came up.

He first shook hands with the dean, then with Lao Hu, and when he got to Fang Yan, he hugged her and gave her a cheek kiss.

"Haha, Dr. Fang, I've missed you so much," Li Chengzhu said to Fang Yan with a smile.

The person who had been ambushed wiped their face speechlessly:
"Miss Li is still so unpredictable."

The dean and Lao Hu couldn't help but chuckle; the young man had been taken advantage of by this woman.

It's rare to see someone speaking in a dialect get the short end of the stick.

At this moment, Li Chengzhu said with a wronged expression:

"Didn't you realize? I did this to show the business partners I brought back that our relationship is special."

Fang Yan then noticed two foreigners standing in the distance: a blonde, blue-eyed woman in her fifties and a blonde woman in her thirties who looked like a secretary.

Both of them looked in their direction, observing Fang Yan and his group with great interest.

Ultimately, all eyes fell on Fang Yan.

Then Li Chengzhu waved to them warmly, and they walked over with a smile.

Then she introduced the blonde woman in French:

"This is Fang Yan, the founder of our business, and also the 'Sputnik crisis of Western medicine'."

Then he introduced Lao Hu:

"This is my other partner, named Hu Daohu. He is now a key driving force behind various markets. The idea of ​​advertising in advance was his idea."

The blonde woman tilted her head and looked at Lao Hu.

Then Li Chengzhu introduced the hospital director, saying he was the director of the best hospital in China.

Then he introduced the person in front of him to everyone:

"Isabelle Dupont, Vice President of RhinePharm Group, whose company is also conducting research on Traditional Chinese Medicine."

"The other one is Cécile Moreau, Ms. Isabella's senior assistant... She can understand Chinese."

The last piece of information is very useful.

Fang Yan and Lao Hu both looked at the young female assistant at the same time.

At this moment, Isabella greeted the person in the dialect in French:
"Hello, Mr. Fang."

"Hello, Mr. Hu."

They responded warmly to the lady, speaking in their local dialect.

Next, Fang Yan handed the battlefield over to Lao Hu, as had been agreed upon beforehand.

He and the dean stepped back slightly. Although it seemed that Ms. Isabella was more interested in the dialect, she eventually started chatting with Lao Hu.

A little while later, before Lao Hu and the others had finished chatting, the banquet organizers invited everyone to take their seats.

Director Liao was finally free, and then everyone noticed Fang Yan and Lao Hu. Some people came over to say hello.

As before, Fang Yan was called together by Director Liao and placed at the same table.

Also at the same table were He You and Huang Qiming.

The two were surrounded by a lot of people just now, so they must be quite famous in the UK.

Most people come to Fang Yan for medical treatment, and when they see these two here, they can't help but go up and say hello, which is why they didn't come to Fang Yan's side earlier.

At this moment, they finally sat down together, and the banquet officially began.

Director Liao stood up, raised his glass, and began to speak. He You, standing nearby, leaned closer and said to Fang Yan:

"Is things going well at home now?"

"Here it comes..." Fang Yan muttered to himself.
