Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 473 Arrival in Washington

A week passed so quickly, in the blink of an eye. Lu Shaohua had already made preparations for the week, including packing and booking plane tickets. Everything was arranged. He just waited for the time to come and he took Liu Mingzhang to the capital of the United States - Washington.

This morning, not long after Lu Shaohua got up, Liu Mingzhang arrived at Lu Shaohua's residence with his children and his wife. Seeing that they were carrying a large gift bag, Lu Shaohua was a little speechless. He glared at Liu Mingzhang and then said, "Mingzhang, do you really think of this as a trip?"

It is undeniable that Liu Mingzhang really treated this trip to the United States as a trip. He brought several sets of clothes and planned to spend a week, ten days or half a month in the United States.

"Hehe!" Liu Mingzhang laughed and said, "I finally got a chance to travel on government funds. I'll feel bad if I don't enjoy it for a few more days."

"Get out." Lu Shaohua started cursing. He had no choice. Liu Mingzhang was so angry that he didn't care about his image anymore and cursed in front of Liu Mingzhang's wife.

It is true that Lu Shaohua is a child in the eyes of others, but he is also a relatively good "child". He is always laughing and joking. He has never said swear words. Well, it is not that he has never said it in front of Liu Mingzhang's wife. So when Lu Shaohua said this, Liu Mingzhang's wife was stunned at first, and then laughed without caring about her image.

"Hey, hey! Pay attention to your image. You are the chairman of the 37th largest group in the world." Liu Mingzhang put on a serious look, then changed his tone and said in a tone that sounded like he was teaching a subordinate a lesson. "What has happened?"

Lu Shaohua's eyes were full of fire. If he hadn't suppressed his impulse, he would have rushed over to beat Liu Mingzhang up. But after thinking about it, he decided not to bother with the villain. He took a few deep breaths to calm down, then smiled like a fox and said leisurely. "Well, your consumption this time will be deducted from your year-end bonus."

This is Lu Shaohua's killer move, and also the most powerful way to clamp down on Liu Mingzhang. No one knows why, but Liu Mingzhang is now worth over 100 million Hong Kong dollars, but he values ​​money very much. Even if he is deducted a few thousand or tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars, he will find someone to fight him to the death.

Just like the last time in Mexico, he made a bet with Lu Shaohua and ended up losing his commission, tens of millions of dollars, which made him heartbroken. He had to make an excuse to explain to his wife, which made him feel overwhelmed. But this time, Lu Shaohua asked him to go to the United States with him, and he brought his children with him just to take a little revenge on Lu Shaohua. Now Lu Shaohua wanted to deduct their expenses from the bonus, and he couldn't bear it.

"Hey, you can be shameless, but you can't be so shameless. In Mexico, I lost my commission on a bet..." Liu Mingzhang stopped in time and looked at his wife standing next to him carefully. Seeing that the latter reacted quickly and her face turned cold, he said something like "No, that's not the case. We didn't bet, and I didn't lose my commission. Oh, no! That didn't happen at all..."

"Haha!" Lu Shaohua laughed loudly, feeling secretly happy and gloating. He knew what would become of Liu Mingzhang next.

As expected, Liu Mingzhang, the "tracheitis" dug his own grave, causing his wife to pinch his ears, which was very painful for him. With cold sweat on his forehead, he looked at Lu Shaohua with pleading eyes, hoping that Lu Shaohua could help him out.

Lu Shaohua is not such a good person. He pretended not to see it and turned his face away, which seemed like he was watching someone in danger without helping.

However, Lu Shaohua's ears were still very sensitive. In addition to Liu Mingzhang's screams, he also heard Liu Mingzhang's wife repeating a sentence.

"You dare to lie to me? I told you to lie to me..."

The couple was staging a scene of domestic violence. Lu Shaohua was gloating. Seeing Liu Mingzhang being taught a lesson, he smiled in his heart. After a while, he shifted his gaze and watched this good show. He did not forget to wave to Liu Mingzhang's son, asking him to come to his side. He waited for his son to come over before lecturing him.

"Well, you have to be good. Don't learn from your father when you grow up. It's wrong to lie to women. Especially, to lie to your mother like your father did. This is very wrong. Also, if you have to lie, you have to keep the lie in your heart. It's not okay to be like your father and try to cover up the truth." Lu Shaohua looked like an elder educating a younger person. He had a smile on his face and acted very friendly.

It turns out that Lu Shaohua is indeed very friendly. Liu Mingzhang's son nodded heavily and said in a tender voice, "Uncle, I know. I will never be like my father when I grow up. Well, I am trying to cover up my mistake."

"Haha!" Lu Shaohua laughed again, touched Liu Mingzhang's son's head, nodded, and said, "That's good."

"..."

"..."

Liu Mingzhang and his wife were speechless, especially his wife, who was speechless to the extreme. She gave up on using violence against Liu Mingzhang, and hurried over to pull her son over, nagging him not to listen to Lu Shaohua. Then she snorted at the rational Liu Mingzhang, found a seat to sit down, and repeated her sermon, hoping that her son would forget what Lu Shaohua had just said.

Lu Shaohua's move was decisive. He unintentionally led to a domestic violence incident and also had the upper hand in words, which made Liu Mingzhang very angry. But Lu Shaohua knew when to stop. He looked at the time and saw that it was almost time. He didn't delay any more. He called Li Shangkui and the others and set off for the airport.

There are many flights from Hong Kong to the United States, but most of them fly to New York. Lu Shaohua and his friends are going to the capital Washington, so they are not going the same way. However, there are quite a few flights to Washington, in total there are two flights, so it is very convenient to book everything at the airport.

Going to the United States, which is not Lu Shaohua's territory, Lu Shaohua naturally has to bring Li Shangkui and the other eight bodyguards. Together with Liu Mingzhang and his wife and his son, there will be a total of twelve people, like a small tour group.

The flight was scheduled for 9:30 in the morning. Lu Shaohua and his group finally arrived at the Hong Kong International Airport before the plane took off. They boarded the first-class cabin smoothly and waited for the plane to take off with peace of mind...

During the more than ten hours' flight, Lu Shaohua slept soundly from the moment the plane took off, and no one disturbed him until the plane landed. He then stretched, got up and left the first-class cabin, got off the plane, and then found the hotel where the party was held and stayed there.

The gathering of the world's top 50 companies was to be held the next day. Lu Shaohua and his group still had one day to play, so time was not very tight. They had already found a place, so they could just wait for it to start and join in directly.

More importantly, Lu Shaohua slept for more than ten hours on the plane and had already adjusted to the jet lag. When he arrived at the hotel, he was not sleepy and simply walked around the streets of Washington.

The economy of the United States is very developed, and Washington, as the capital, is naturally not bad. The streets and alleys are filled with an upscale atmosphere, which makes Lu Shaohua enjoy his shopping.

Going shopping is essential, especially for Liu Mingzhang's wife, who is a born shopaholic and buys anything she sees. Fortunately, Liu Mingzhang has considerable assets and can afford her shopping spree.

Lu Shaohua also goes shopping, but he is not like Liu Mingzhang's wife who buys everything she sees. He only buys things if they look beautiful and practical. To put it bluntly, he shops with a purpose.

The group happily strolled along the street for several hours until Lu Shaohua felt that it was enough, so they returned to the hotel to rest and wait for the party the next day.

Time passed quickly, and a day went by quickly. At ten o'clock the next morning, Lu Shaohua put on a suit and went to the top floor lobby of the hotel with Liu Mingzhang, who was also dressed neatly.

That's right, the top floor of the hotel is the destination of this time and also the venue for this party. Lu Shaohua and Liu Mingzhang came to the entrance hall of the top floor lobby and were soon stopped by two doormen in black. They politely explained the situation to Lu Shaohua. It was not until Lu Shaohua showed the invitation that the doormen smiled and made a gesture of invitation, allowing Lu Shaohua and Liu Mingzhang to go in.

What Lu Shaohua could not have expected was that as soon as he entered the door, the camera's flash lit up, making the already bright hall even brighter, and the film rewound with a "click, click" sound.

Lu Shaohua and Liu Mingzhang closed their eyes slightly, with a faint smile on their faces. They nodded around and then walked inside.

Only after he walked in and shook off the camera flash did Lu Shaohua breathe a sigh of relief. He had never been pointed at by so many flashes at the same time in his life, so it was normal to feel a little uncomfortable. He breathed a sigh of relief because he was really not used to this situation.

All along, Lu Shaohua has been hiding behind the scenes and never appeared in public. Today he finally showed up, but he didn't know there would be so many media present. He was not mentally prepared and suffered a great shock both visually and psychologically.

But just when Lu Shaohua breathed a sigh of relief, he was immediately raised again. The reason was simple: the reporters surrounded them, walked quickly in front of Lu Shaohua and Liu Mingzhang, blocked their way, and pointed their cameras at the two of them. Their intention was very obvious: they wanted to interview them.

Journalists are a profession that businesses are reluctant to provoke, especially in the United States, a country with free speech. Lu Shaohua dared not provoke or offend these journalists. He put on what he thought was a charming smile and prepared to answer the reporters' questions.

The reporter's questions were also very simple. The first question was which group Lu Shaohua represented?

Lu Shaohua's answer was quite simple.

The Phoenix Group was like a sudden force that appeared out of nowhere. For the reporters, it was a piece of news that was worthy of their attention. Of course, Lu Shaohua's identity also received strong attention, and asking about Lu Shaohua's identity became the second question.

"Boss" This was Lu Shaohua's answer.
