Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO

As someone born into a wealthy family, Xu Dong heard about the Jingbei Supercar Club, and his first reaction was, "I heard you can't join this supercar club just by owning a sports car?"

Perhaps he had tried privately.

A friend of Zhao Xinming made his presence felt, "After all, Jingbei is a center of authority where even a brick thrown can hit a director. The local characteristics are self-evident. If you want to join the Supercar Club without some background, would they let you stir trouble on the emperor's head?

Lin Yu chimed in, "I heard the supercar club in Jingbei is genuinely into cars?"

Zhao Xinming nodded, "They are different from the club in Jiangcheng. Our side's supercar club was established by a group of second-generation rich from Jiangcheng as representatives, being a directly controlled municipality, with firm local capital and an ever-changing Magistrate lineup. Here, the supercar club is mostly about flaunting wealth, not caring for performance but for luxury! But those in Jingbei genuinely enjoy handling and racing cars, to join, you must understand and know how to play with cars!"

"Mr. Liu's father was originally from Jingbei, only transferred to Jiangcheng. Despite his influence here, he might also be a marginal figure in the circles over in Jingbei."

The crowd suddenly understood.

Far from looking down on Mr. Liu, they felt that the few people he was hosting from Jingbei were not simple!

At this point, Xu Dong curiously looked at Gu Feng, "Brother-in-law, do you know about this supercar club in Jingbei?"

Gu Feng nodded, "I've heard of it."

He didn't mean to show off, he really knew the club.

It was the children of several younger generations from a big compound like Ye Wei who were playing with it.

You can only say that every family has its own set of disappointing children.

The big compound's groups don't have an absolute monopoly on governmental resources, many children with excess can't enter the system due to capability issues, like people like Ye Wei.

The initial intention of these children of the big compound to establish the club was to facilitate socialization, gradually forming a circle.

As for the funds they held, most were earned through using their background and the informational discrepancies as white gloves.

Of course, this money wasn't obtained through any illegal means.

Due to background issues, they could only resort to white gloves, a mode of operation that is actually not new in Jingbei or even across the country.

For the older generation, as long as you don't violate the rules by monopolizing gains, they'd turn a blind eye.

A few wealthy young friends of Xu Dong asked Gu Feng with great interest, "Feng, do you have a way in? Our friends doing business in Jingbei wanted to join, but never had the connections."

Xu Dong smiled sheepishly, "My family has a branch in Jingbei, originally for smooth business development, I applied to join the supercar club but was rejected. To expand our connections, I later blindly joined the local football, golf, and off-road vehicle clubs."

"Mainly because I don't know who is in charge of the club now, otherwise, I could ask around." Gu Feng flicked his cigarette ash.

If he knew who it was, he could have simply called them up directly.

Upon hearing Gu Feng's words, and Xu Dong calling him brother-in-law, Zhao Xinming and others, curious, asked, "Who is this?"

Lin Yu introduced with a smile, "My brother-in-law, Gu Feng."

Zhao Xinming and others didn't react at first, surprised, "Which sister of yours?"

Lin Yu, "My cousin Lin Yue, President of Thunder Group."

"Oh." As the crowd recovered from their shock, they hurriedly stood up to shake hands with Gu Feng, "There have been legends of you in the circles recently, it's finally nice to meet you in person!"

They had heard the gossip when Lin Yue had already deleted the photos, so they had never seen Gu Feng's face.

The Thunder Group is also a strong local enterprise in Jiangcheng, one of the top businesses in its 16 districts. Having such an enterprise is considered a star enterprise of the district.

Lin Langsheng, who is at the same level as his father, only achieved his current status through the achievements brought by the enterprise supported by Lin Hai.

They are not something the second-tier privileged generation can ignore.

In the financial city, everything speaks through the creation of capital power!

Lin Yue's connections are with their parents' generation, so you'd better watch out for her husband.

However, these people were more curious about Gu Feng himself, especially since there were rumors in their circle about Lin Yue's mysterious man having some background?

"Feng, were you in the military before?" Zhao Xinming, driven by curiosity, asked.

Gu Feng nodded, "I have already been discharged."

Zhao Xinming, "What projects are you working on now, Feng?"

Gu Feng, "I'm involved in finance, stocks, and funds, and I might start one in Jiangcheng soon."

Lin Yue said he couldn't be unemployed, as it would raise suspicions from his mother and family. So, he planned to set up a private fund temporarily to create a facade for his career, luckily he had experience with this abroad.

Zhao Xinming, "That's great, Feng, if you're interested, consider starting one in our Pudong district."

Gu Feng nodded.

At this point, Xu Dong, somewhat embarrassed, held up his glass to Zhao Xinming and said, "Well, Mr. Ming, the thing is, I want to open a shop in Pudong."

"Sure," Zhao Xinming smiled, "You're welcome."

Xu Dong chuckled and clinked glasses, then added, "I want to open a nightclub in the bustling area of Pudong."

Zhao Xinming's smile became more reserved, as he said with a half-hearted grin, "Mr. Xu, as you know, this kind of business has regional protections and license restrictions, I can't make decisions on this."

That was a refusal.

"Understood, understood," Xu Dong sheepishly smiled, drank his wine, and his smile turned more awkward.

Today, they had asked Lin Yu to invite Mr. Ming for a drink, mainly to pave the way for Xu Dong's upcoming store opening.

Money wasn't an issue, both in his hands and within the family, what was lacking was connections!

Pudong district is the most glamorous and bustling area in Jiangcheng.

The money-making businesses here are already monopolized by many well-connected capitalists.

If you don't have connections, it's hard to enter!

Even if you manage to open your shop, if you don't make the necessary preparations and your approach isn't robust enough, it can provoke calculations from competitors.

Take the nightclub for instance; if your place is constantly getting ordered to reform and inspect, which client wouldn't be terrified?

In time, don't expect anyone to want to come play.

Without waiting for Lin Yu to speak up for his brother-in-law, Zhao Xinming took the initiative, "Let's go, let's toast to Mr. Liu."

Lin Yu was somewhat surprised, "You know Mr. Liu?"

Zhao Xinming, "They often hang out in Pudong, of course I know him."

His words boasted of his connections, essentially showing his cards, telling you that he had the confidence to refuse!

"Let's go then." Lin Yu instinctively poured himself some wine and followed Zhao Xinming out of the room.

Xu Dong, somewhat dejected, watched their retreating figures, but not wanting to dampen everyone's spirits, he got up and took the initiative to toast Gu Feng, "Brother-in-law, come, let's drink."
