Chapter 525 Comfortable

“In the end, because of some personal matters, it was delayed until now. Therefore, I’ll punish myself with this glass of wine.”

With that, CEO Zhao suddenly raised the wine glass in his hand to his mouth and poured it into his mouth without hesitation.

The wine glass was so full that it was about to overflow. A mushroom-like dome appeared at the mouth of the glass. Furthermore, the glass was the size of a paper cup. It was at least a tael of baijiu.

However, it was swallowed by CEO Zhao without a word. Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat as they cursed in their hearts.

After drinking, CEO Zhao put down his glass and filled it again. He raised it again and smiled.

“Ah, then this second glass is to thank Chairman Ye Xuan, the chairman of the legendary Dinglong Corporation in the business world, for giving me some respect by attending the banquet. This is my honor, so this glass of wine must be a toast to Chairman Ye to show his respect.”

At this point, CEO Zhao retracted his gaze and looked at Ye Xuan. He raised his cup and continued.

“Chairman Ye, I’ll drink this. You can use tea as wine. Do whatever you want!”

After saying that, he suddenly raised his glass and drank one tael of baijiu. He did not blush and his heart did not skip a beat, making Ye Xuan admire him.

Ye Xuan quickly raised a drink and drank it in one gulp as a form of courtesy.

Thinking about it, it made sense. People like President Zhao worked hard in the business world in Tianjing. Most of the time, they relied on socializing and used alcohol as weapons to discuss business. Coupled with some of their own methods, they could make their company so big. Although they were not considered one of the top five giants in Tianjing, they were still considered owners of first-rate companies. Their alcohol tolerance was naturally high, but their health was probably poor.

After drinking a glass, CEO Zhao filled it again. Then, he raised his glass and looked at the CEOs. He smiled and spoke.

“This third glass of wine is definitely to thank everyone for their support. Some CEOs even came from thousands of miles away. I’m really grateful. At the same time, I wish our future business prosperity and wealth. I wish everyone good health and family harmony. I wish you all the glory in the future!”

When the CEO heard this speech, they immediately stood up. Each of them raised a wine glass that was the same size as CEO Zhao’s glass. Then, they raised their wine glasses in unison and shouted.

“Let’s create glory together!!”

As soon as they finished speaking, their Adam’s apples moved up and down as they drank it all in one gulp. After drinking, many CEOs who could not hold their liquor well immediately blushed. Most of their eyes were bloodshot. They shook their heads from side to side and blew. They looked terrible.

After all, baijiu wasn’t like beer. It had an alcohol content of 56%. After one or two ounces, one’s throat would be extremely spicy, and one’s stomach wouldn’t be able to take it. This was before the enterprises in Tianjing. At the same time, they wanted to get to know these CEOs to expand their connections and business path.

aftereffects came.

However, although they were uncomfortable, no one felt anything. Did they travel thousands of miles to attend this banquet just to eat and drink? Of course not.

Naturally, it was to build a good relationship with the CEOs of the local first-rate commercial enterprises in Tianjing. At the same time, they wanted to get to know these CEOs to expand their connections and business path.

If they could exchange for these with a glass of alcohol, it was really nothing.

Furthermore, there was a major guest today. It was Chairman Ye Xuan of the Dinglong Corporation, a leading company in China. If they could meet Chairman Ye here and chat for a while, even if everyone drank three glasses in a row like CEO Zhao, and even if they drank until their stomachs bled and they had to go to the hospital for an IV drip, it would be the most cost-effective way.

One had to know that back then, in order to discuss business, they had drunk a lot and been hospitalized. However, they only brought 80,000 yuan in profits.

Ye Xuan was also shocked by everyone’s drinking, but he didn’t say anything. Now that CEO Zhao, the host of the banquet, had already expressed his stance, as the special guest here, he naturally had to stand up and say a few words.

“All the CEOs who are familiar with me know that I can’t drink alcohol in my current state, so I’ll use tea as wine. I hope all the CEOs can forgive me. It’s a pleasure to be invited to the banquet by CEO Zhao. Here, I’ll say a few simple words.”

“First, thank you for your recognition of me and your trust in the Dinglong Corporation. Our corporation has seen too much bloodshed in the business world over the years and has experienced too much human warmth in society.”

“We’re not interested in the mud on the muddy road, nor do we have any intention of molding it. Similarly, we won’t destroy the wild flowers that are slightly stained with mud and water on the bright road. The path we have taken is simple. We arrived by the way we came from.”

“The scenery along the way was beautiful and exciting. Many people were asking me about the management of the corporation and my future direction. However, in fact, it was very difficult and tiring for us along the way. It was very sad and painful, just like the paths of many people here.”

“The only difference is that I feel that trust, accountability, responsibility, and honesty are the keys to reaching the end. However, many businessmen don’t think highly of these keys.”

“This is also why you’re here. It’s also why I’m here. I think you should drink this glass.”

Ye Xuan smiled and raised his cup to drink the orange juice in one gulp. Then, he narrowed his eyes and examined everyone, as if he was monitoring them.

After all, the weight of this cup was far heavier than any other cup in the past. It was as heavy as a thousand gold coins and as heavy as Mount Tai.

That was because once they drank this glass of wine, it meant that in the future, everyone here would stand with Ye Xuan and the Dinglong Corporation.

However, this did not mean that they could do business with the Dinglong Corporation and get to know the chairman of the Dinglong Corporation.

It meant that once they drank it, if any of the CEOs present did not abide by the secret key of businessmen that Ye Xuan mentioned just now, they would have to seek forgiveness from the Dinglong Corporation after being attacked.

Everyone knew its meaning very well.

After all, China did not need merchants who relied on rape and fraud, nor did it need companies that were not worthy of their status.

“Chairman Ye makes a lot of sense. I and the Chengyuan Corporation will remember what you said this time. We will never let Chairman Ye down.”

As CEO Li spoke, he raised his cup and finished it in one gulp. The various CEOs also reacted when they saw this. They raised their glasses and drank it in one go.

This was a choice that was the lifeline of their respective companies. This choice was difficult and complicated. There were too many relationships that were difficult to cut off. Fortunately, between pain and decline, everyone chose the right answer.

The path given by this answer was neither dark nor painful. It might rain very heavily, but after the rain, there would no longer be muddy swamps all over the ground that caused everyone to sink into them. Their feet would not be filled with mud and footprints everywhere.

That was because the Dinglong Corporation had already built a ten-level explosion-resistant cement road with steel bars and mud for them through this glass of wine. This road was comfortable to walk on and would no longer be dirty.
