Chapter 402 Banquet
After a while, Wang Zhifan, who had some vague inspiration for cultivation through his conversation with Ying, returned to the real world.
He and Ying have discussed it, and Ying will temporarily operate around the portal of the Quantum Dream Realm. While ensuring safety, she will skillfully control the clone Wang Zhifan made for her and initially investigate the situation in a small area outside.
Other times, she has to return to the Quantum Dream Realm to continue maintenance. When Wang Zhifan has almost figured out this other world, he will find a way to get her a better carrier for her to explore around the world.
At this time, Wang Zhifan appeared in the foreign-style building in Dongcheng Villa in Dongjiang City. He found his mobile phone and checked the time, and found that it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon. The screen also showed Chen Ming and Chen Ming. Can's missed call from him.
"Damn it, there was a mistake in time management."
Wang Zhifan, who understood that he was late for the banquet, immediately called Chen Ming and the others and told them that he had something urgent just now and rushed over immediately.
Brother Chen Ming seemed to understand that he was a busy man and was busy all day long, so they immediately said that they would not interfere with him. Anyway, their banquet had just started not long ago.
“It’s best to drive there.”
For this kind of social activity, even if the target location is not very far away, Wang Zhifan did not intend to show off his Qinggong and ran directly there. He once again started from In the garage came a BMW luxury car that had not been used much since it was purchased.
About ten minutes later, he drove to downtown Dongjiang City and came to the Wansheng Restaurant owned by the Chen Group where he had been.
When he parked the car in the parking space, a young man with dark hair, glasses and a high-end suit came out of the restaurant to greet him. It was Chen Can, whom he hadn't seen for a while.
"Sorry A-Can! I originally planned to come here before two o'clock, but I was still late!"
After getting out of the BMW luxury car, Wang Zhifan hurriedly faced the person in front of him. The organizer of the banquet apologized again, mainly because he had promised others that he would arrive early, but he failed to keep his promise.
"It's okay, Brother Fan! Xiao Ming and I both know how busy you are. We are very happy if you can come to the banquet!"
Chen Can smiled brightly after hearing this, as if he knew very well that Wang Zhifan was always busy.
"It's true that I've been a little busy lately... But let's not talk about that now. What is the theme of your banquet today and why is it so mysterious?"
Wang Zhifan closed the car door and As Chen Can walked towards the luxurious and vast Wansheng Hotel in front of him.
The entire hotel, including the land, is owned by Chen Can's family, and it is probably not ranked among their family's assets, which shows how strong the Chen Group's financial resources are.
"Brother Fan, you misunderstood. There is no mystery. Xiao Ming and I just made some gamer friends and invited everyone to have a party. There is no special purpose."
Chen Can immediately replied with a smile, his tone was quite casual.
"Just a party? How can a manager of a big company like you have so much free time?"
Wang Zhifan immediately replied with some disbelief, mainly because he understood that the young man in front of him belonged to the society. At the elite level, people definitely have a variety of high-end businesses to deal with on weekdays, and generally speaking, they don't have much free time.
But Chen Can shook his head slightly after hearing this and responded:
"Brother Fan, times have changed. I used to have very little time to attend such banquets, but since I became After becoming a player, my old man forced me to lighten the projects on hand, and asked me to spend more time on studying and playing dungeons to improve my strength. Today, I invited my gamer friends to a party, which is the old man’s idea..."
His explanation made Wang Zhifan understand that becoming a player had an impact on the Chen family's decision-making. Many chores in reality were not as important as playing dungeons even in the eyes of the older generation.
Of course, this must be closely related to the danger of life in playing dungeons. The older generation hopes that future generations will be prepared to reduce the possibility of falling into dungeons.
"Your parents are really well-intentioned..."
With a slight sigh, Wang Zhifan and Chen Can walked into the elevator on the first floor of the hotel and quickly arrived at the Wansheng Hotel. Eight floors.
This was the first time he came up to this floor. He saw that it was decorated magnificently and magnificently. In the middle was a large living room of at least 500 square meters. Many glamorous male and female waiters and guests were coming and going in it. Some were chatting eagerly, and some were tasting the various delicacies neatly arranged in the living room.
Around the large living room, there are many different activity rooms, including places for playing cards and mahjong, places for playing table tennis and table tennis, and even indoor basketball courts and 4D cinemas.
"Mr. Chen! Brother Fan!"
"Hello, Mr. Chen! Hello, Brother Fan!"
......
With Wang Zhifan and Chen Can When they walked into the living room, the security personnel guarding various positions nodded to them one by one. What was interesting was that these people not only said "Mr. Chen" to Chen Can, but also shouted "Brother Fan" when they saw Wang Zhifan coming in. It was as if they all knew him.
"Good guy...am I so famous?"
This unexpected battle immediately made Wang Zhifan a little embarrassed, mainly because it was obviously the first time for him to meet these people, but these people made It's like I'm very familiar with him, but I feel a little uncomfortable.
And this embarrassment was greatly enhanced in the next second, because the other sponsor of the banquet, Chen Can's younger brother Chen Ming, also noticed Wang Zhifan's arrival.
This fourteen-year-old boy was originally talking with a dozen guests in the front, but when he saw Wang Zhifan's figure appeared, he immediately ran over, completely ignoring the large crowd around him. There were a lot of guests, and they shouted to Wang Zhifan:
"Brother Fan! You are finally here! I miss you so much!"
"..."
For a moment, Wang Zhifan, who was already feeling a little embarrassed, couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. It's not that he has never seen a big battle. After all, he has been a gang boss and one of the mainland overlords in the dungeon. Class, but this is the first time for me to be watched by so many people in reality. "A Ming! Don't keep chirping!"
Chen Can couldn't stand it when he saw this scene, and immediately scolded his brother.
But Chen Ming didn’t seem to care much. He ran over in a high-profile manner and replied nonchalantly:
"Oops! Brother, haven't I seen Brother Fan for a long time? It's normal to be a little excited!"
When this guy joined Wang Zhifan and Chen Can, many people in the big living room The guests also focused their attention on Wang Zhifan, the focus of the crowd, and many people started discussing in low voices.
"That person is Brother Fan? He really looks extraordinary, he looks like a master at first glance!"
"Holy shit! Is he the big guy often mentioned in Er Shao's videos? This See you again!”
“He looks so strong! I don’t know how powerful he is!”
"Uh...Brother, excuse me, is this guy named Brother Fan famous? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
"Of course you haven't seen the player video posted by the second young master of the Chen family at Station C. I don’t know, but Second Young Master will mention this person in every video. According to Second Young Master, his actual He is so powerful that he may be one of the strongest players in our Xia Kingdom..."
"Is it that exaggerated? The strongest players in our country should all be in the Bureau! I don’t believe that a master would have time to attend such a gathering..."
"Haha, brother. , You don’t have to believe it, I have some connections in the administration. It is said that the day before yesterday, our top experts from the Dongjiang City Administration went on a business trip. It happened that an extremely powerful gray domain monster appeared in the suburbs. At that time, the administration spent a lot of money. Even though I was a bit weak, I couldn't take down this monster, but in the end I relied on a super strong man It took a civilian player to solve this problem, and I don’t need to say more about who this civilian player is. I think you understand now..."
"My God! Even our Dongjiang City Management Bureau wants to invite him. Take action? It seems that we really met a big shot among players today!”
...
Although everyone in the living room deliberately lowered their voices, Wang Zhifan could hear clearly with his extraordinary five senses, so he soon had a lot of doubts in his heart, wondering what he was talking about. When did you become a celebrity and your name appears to be on a video?
So when Chen Ming rushed to him, he forced an ugly smile on his face, gritted his teeth and asked him in a low voice:
"You kid What the hell happened? Why do so many people seem to know me? Didn’t I tell you to keep a low profile?"
Seeing that Wang Zhifan didn’t look good, Chen Ming looked very indifferent at this time. , he confessed directly:
"Brother Fan, don't worry, I'm very low-key. I only sometimes mention my experience playing dungeons with Brother Fan in the player videos I posted, but those kids on Station C like to say that I'm bragging and that Fan Brother, you are a player image that I made up randomly. Naturally, I don’t want to be slandered by them, so I will often confront them online to let them know that Brother Fan, you are the real deal..."
After Chen Ming’s explanation, Wang Zhifan finally understood what was going on. This can be traced back to the first time he and Chen Ming matched in the dungeon. At that time, Chen Ming sent In order to record the video, he happened to meet and get to know Wang Zhifan during the transaction, and later made a copy together. Chen Ming recorded part of it on the Internet, which attracted the attention of fans of his video.
Later, due to some coincidences, the master player "Brother Fan" created by Chen Ming became somewhat popular in the small circle. As a result, without Wang Zhifan's knowledge, he was already on the Internet. A little bit famous.
At this banquet, many of the guests were Chen Ming’s video fans and were invited by him to support them. Therefore, as soon as they heard Chen Ming shouting “Brother Fan”, they understood everything and couldn’t help but talk about it. One after another.
"Haha, you kid, you really know how to mess around..."
Wang Zhifan was completely speechless when he heard this. He really didn't expect that Chen Ming, a rich man, had the habit of posting online videos.
The only good news is that Chen Ming is just a not-so-famous podcaster. So far, his videos have only limited publicity for Wang Zhifan. Wang Zhifan doesn’t have to worry too much about what kind of publicity he has really become. figure.
Chen Ming's brother Chen Can, who was on the side, also felt helpless when he saw this scene. He warned his brother on the spot to restrain himself in the future and stop pushing Wang Zhifan into the fire pit.
“A Ming, you also know Brother Fan’s character. He is not the type who likes to be high-profile. Don’t do such mindless things in your videos in the future. It’s best to put the previous related videos I deleted them all so as not to affect Brother Fan’s daily life..."
After hearing this, Wang Zhifan waved his hand and forcibly interrupted the topic.
"Come on, it's like this. It doesn't matter whether you delete it or not. Anyway, Mingzi, just remember to keep a low profile in the future. The player group is not filled with regular people. Too much publicity can easily cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. Now go back to the banquet. There are so many guests waiting.”
After this little episode, the banquet between Chen Ming and Brother Chen Ming continued. Wang Zhifan began to join them in the living room, eating, drinking, and talking about the mountains. From time to time, guests would come to greet him or even talk. He also Respond politely.
I have to say that this banquet funded by the Chen family is quite rich in content, and the food and drinks are delicious and high-end. Wang Zhifan was communicating with others while solving his own stomach problems, such as the ancient Xia banquet, Buddha jumping off the building, 82 He had tasted every Lafite of the year, and was relatively restrained in the process, trying not to expose his poor nature.
Of course, Wang Zhifan is definitely not poor in terms of property now. He was just born as a commoner in two lives, and has essentially been engraved with the mark of a class. However, he does not think there is anything wrong with this. Since If you are a commoner, there is no need to pretend to be rich. The most important thing is to keep your heart.
After a period of eating, drinking and having fun, the banquet entered the next stage, which was the player equipment trade fair that Chen Ming once mentioned on the phone.
But it was different from what Wang Zhifan had speculated before. This trade fair was not as small as he thought. It was the Chen brothers who planned to let him blast the gold coins. In fact, the equipment trade fair was quite well prepared. The Chen brothers used their own Financial resources purchased a batch of high-quality starting equipment through social channels and planned to sell it to the guests present at a preferential price lower than the cost. This can be regarded as a core attraction to attract players to attend the meeting.
On the other hand, if players have equipment they want to sell, for example, a gunner player has equipment for the mage profession, but the equipment is not very high-end and cannot be sold on the forum, they can Negotiate with others to sell it here, or simply sell it to the Chen family.
Wang Zhifan asked Chen Ming and Brother Chen why they were doing this kind of activity. The Chen family had money and there was no reason to waste it like this. Chen Can said that they planned to set up a player guild. Many people came to the banquet this time. People are members of their guild during the probationary period, and it is normal to provide some benefits to the members.
"Brother Fan, if you are willing to join, we brothers will definitely let you be the guild boss, so that our guild will not have to restrict low-level players from joining."
See Wang Zhifan and ask At this point, Chen Can half-jokingly suggested to him.
