Chapter 1189 - Unable to keep it simple
But sometimes, things will not go according to plan.
When Kirilenko heard Feng Yu is finally getting married, he brought along an expensive gift to China. A Russian manufactured private jet.
Kirilenko knows Feng Yu always has like private jets and had ordered one in the US. But Feng Yu still do not have a private jet in China.
This private jet is not as expensive as the paintings Feng Yu gave him, and Kirilenko bought a few Chinese antique paintings for him to display in his study room.
When Feng Yu saw the private jet at Bing City’s airport, he fell in love with it. Kirilenko knows more about enjoying life, and the interior design of this jet is customized for him.
Feng Yu found out later that this jet’s design is an imitation of the former Soviet Union President’s private jet, and added with modern electronic devices. It is more comfortable, and it was ordered by a Russian tycoon. But Kirilenko bought it from him at a higher price.
But it’s hard for Feng Yu to accept it. Luckily, Bing City Aviation Factory can help and registered the jet under the factory’s name, making it easier to get approvals.
Feng Yu had notified Fu Guangzheng, and he told Li Zekai and Fu Guangwei about Feng Yu’s wedding. It was too last minute, and the three of them could not prepare a good gift for the wedding. So, they gave three newly acquired buildings in Hong Kong to Feng Yu as his wedding gift.
Although the office buildings are nothing special, they are located in the prime district and charge high rental. Furthermore, it’s three buildings.
When they arrive at Bing City, the Long Jiang Province’s top officials went to receive them. These three are the second-generations of Hong Kong’s top tycoons, and the officials hope they will invest in the province.
Although Long Jiang Province is unlike other provinces, which need to suck up to foreign investors, it is always good to get additional investments.
The leaders reported these three tycoons’ arrival to Xu Changyou, and he thought for a while. He is going to retire but still wanted a good reputation. He does not want people to say he is sucking up to the tycoons. Just happen, Zhang Ruiqiang had gone to Beidacang Group for inspection, and Feng Yu’s hometown is also under Beidacang’s group.
This way, no one will say anything if Zhang Ruiqiang appeared there to attend the wedding.
But Zhang Ruiqiang can’t attend the wedding alone. He is accompanied by a big group of government leaders.
All the leaders arrived at the wedding, and Feng Yu had to make arrangements for them. All this is fine, but these leaders are accompanied by reporters.
Feng Yu’s bodyguards played an important role here. They stopped all the reporters outside the venue, and Zhang Ruiqiang remembered Feng Yu does not like to appear on the media. But he noticed someone with a camera at the wedding. The person holding the camera looks like the son-in-law of the former Public Security Director Zhang.
That’s right. Wen Dongjun is the cameraman, and Zhang Ruiqiang did not see the other camera that belongs to Liu Kun.
Zhang Ruiqiang is here, and the best seat must be reserved for him. A place at the main table is given to him, and the rest of the leaders, even the Provincial’s Directors, had to sit at the third table. The second table is reserved for Zhong Qingxian, Liu Chuanzhi, etc. They held higher status than those Provincial Leaders as they are always invited to meet the country’s top leaders.
Those Officials were unhappy with this arrangement at first. Still, when they saw the ones sitting at the second table, they felt lucky to be seated at the third table. If Feng Yu had informed all his acquaintances, even the country’s top leaders might come, and these officials might have to sit in the corner!
The family member that is accompanying the Provincial Officials at the third table is Li Shiqiang. He is the boss of Wind and Rain Logistics, the biggest private-owned logistics company in China. His net worth had exceeded 1 billion RMB a long time ago, and they don’t even know his exact worth now.
Feng Yu had not informed Zhong Qingxian, Liu Chuanzhi, and the rest. Liu Chuanzhi heard about the wedding from Zhong Qingxian, and the latter heard it from Li Zekai. Li Zekai did not know about China’s wedding customs and asked Zhong Qingxian for suggestions on Feng Yu’s wedding gift.
Word of Feng Yu’s wedding spread, Shi Dazhu, Wang Zhixi, Ma Huateng, Ma Yun, Li Yanhong, Ding Lei, Jiang Wanmeng, Li Jingwei, etc. had all come to the wedding.
Although they are Feng Yu’s business partners, they all know that their success today is Feng Yu.
There are not enough people to host the guests, and even Wu Zhigang had to help out. After all, he is one of Feng Yu’s earliest staff and one of Feng Yu’s most trusted aides.
Of course, Kameda Masao and Heitaro Nakajima had come to attend the wedding. Ralph and the rest also wanted to come, but Kameda Masao stopped them and told them that the Chinese don’t really like foreigners. Kameda Masao and Heitaro Nakajima are Asians, and no one will know they are Japanese if they don’t speak. Furthermore, Kameda Masao can speak fluent Mandarin.
Like Sergey and the rest, the others had dropped Feng Yu an SMS to congratulate him as they know Feng Yu will be too busy to answer their call. Bill Gates also found out about Feng Yu’s wedding and wrote him an email to congratulate him.
Feng Yu had only planned to hold a simple wedding with around eight to ten tables. But lots of guests had come, and he had to increase to more than 30 tables. If the village’s guesthouse and the restaurant had not expanded twice, it might not even fit so many tables. Many leaders from other provinces also want to attend the wedding but were stopped outside the venue.
Feng Yu and Li Na looked at each other and sighed, but their parents were overjoyed. They preferred the wedding to have more guests as their thinking is still very conservative. Even Li Na was forced to wear a traditional red wedding gown.
White?! White is the color for funerals! Red is an auspicious color!
The media reported about Feng Yu’s wedding the next day.
They noticed many top tycoons had gathered in Bing City and thought there is an important event. The reporters rushed to Bing City to cover this story and knew the tycoons had gone there to attend a wedding.
At first, the media were puzzled. Why so many tycoons had gone to attend a wedding in a small village in Bing City?
Who is the groom?!
The media could easily guess who the groom is. Who else can invite so many tycoons and even Hong Kong tycoons to attend his wedding?! Only one person in Bing City is influential enough to invite them.
So, Feng Yu’s wedding got reported.
Feng Yu and Li Na’s plan to hold a simple wedding had failed.
