Chapter 315 - Old Leader
Chapter 315: Old Leader
When he said this, Tang Mingkun’s expression was quite proud. He held his godson’s hand and sat on the stone bench. He said, “Don’t be restrained. Just treat it as meeting my good friend and treat him as an ordinary old man. Come, eat. Don’t faint from hunger later.”
As he spoke, he stuffed a bowl and a pair of chopsticks into Lu Ming’s hands. Since his godfather had said so, there was no need for him to hold back anymore. Hence, his body relaxed a little, and his tense nerves were relieved for a moment. After the two old men moved their chopsticks, he began to eat.
To be honest, he was already hungry when he came over early in the morning. He originally wanted to eat something at home to fill his stomach, but because his godfather had arrived when he just woke up, he did not want him to wait for him. He changed his clothes and followed him out.
However, the taste was indeed not bad! Although the dishes were ordinary, the more they ate, the more delicious they became. As expected of the food from the old leader’s family!
Seeing him wolfing down the food, the old leader shook his head and couldn’t help but laugh. “Your godson is really open-minded. If it were anyone else, they would probably put down their chopsticks after a few bites. However, my appetite has also been aroused by him. Little Lu, right? What do you think of my food?”
“Delicious! It would be even better if I could eat it every day.”
Lu Ming said frankly. Although his culinary skills were not bad, he had been busy dealing with work all day. How could he have the time to cook? Chefs in the hotels could make fancy foods, but the chef in this old leader’s house could make ordinary dishes delicious!
The greatest genius often lies concealed,?he thought.
“Hahahaha, if someone else said that, I might not believe it, but if it’s you, I’m willing to believe it.”
The old leader had lived for so many years and had seen countless people. He could naturally tell what was sincere and what was fake. How could he be pretending to eat so happily? Hence, he picked up a bean sprout with his chopsticks and asked his friend, “By the way, what does your godson do?”
“Now that he’s starting his own business, he’s doing quite well. The company has quite a few main directions. For example, new energy cars. Not only do they run fast, but they also don’t produce exhaust gas and cause pollution. Many people have changed to such cars now. There are also flying cars, chips for making smart homes, and phones. He has a lot of strange ideas in his mind.”
Tang Mingkun’s words were filled with pride.
New energy cars? Flying cars?
The old leader raised his eyebrows slightly.?Isn’t this something I often heard a while ago? So my good friend’s godson is also involved? But with such a wide span, it’s no wonder that there are so many directions to take.
He chuckled and said, “I was wondering why you thought so highly of him. This path is not easy to take! I heard from others that the most completed flying car in the country is ready to be driven on the road. This is much faster than the progress overseas! It’s said that it even caused a global shock.”
“That’s not all. Recently, he even built a satellite city in Shaping in the capital. It’s all intelligent. You can do whatever you need to do. There are all kinds of robots everywhere. I think the smart era is coming soon. He created it himself!”
Tang Mingkun wished he could praise his godson to the sky, but he still had to restrain himself in front of his old leader.
“It seems his taste is as good as yours.”
The old leader instinctively thought that Lu Ming’s team had completed these things. After all, he had been fishing at home recently and did not know much about this news. As for the satellite city, it should be just child’s play.
“It’s more than good taste! Most company bosses are only responsible for investing in the development, but it’s different for Ming. He’s also personally involved in the production process. When those researchers got stuck, he was the one who provided the solution. It was just like when they were working on flying cars and encountered difficulties.”
Tang Mingkun paused for a moment, took a sip of tea, and continued, “His team invited several big shots both domestically and abroad, but they couldn’t solve the problem. I heard that there was even the chief engineer of aerospace among them. In the end, it was my godson who modified the motor. He’s very proficient in cars, smart devices, and machinery. Moreover, he didn’t study these majors in university.”
Oh my, this is a scientific genius?!
The old leader sized up the young man sitting opposite him again. Lu Ming’s ears turned red from the praise. Although what his godfather said was the truth, it was still different to hear it himself. It was too embarrassing! If he could, he really wanted to find a hole to hide. If his godfather had restrained himself a little, he would not have such thoughts.
So he ate much faster.
The old leader looked at his friend again. Although it sounded a little exaggerated, he did not think that the other party would lie. In other words, what Old Tang said was true! He asked curiously, “So powerful? What’s the company’s name?”
“Lu Ming.”
These two words completely jolted the old leader’s memory. He said in realization, “So your godson is the boss of Lu Ming Corporation? Why didn’t you tell me his name is Lu Ming before you came? I couldn’t remember it after thinking for a long time! Aiya, you old fellow!”
As there were many companies that were making new energy cars now, he initially thought that Lu Ming was just one of those who followed the trend. Moreover, after Lu Ming Corporation made a good start, other companies began to research flying cars. He didn’t expect that the person who came this time was actually Lu Ming himself.
Speaking of Lu Ming, he often came across the name in documents or chats. He understood that Lu Ming carried the hopes of many people. However, he did not expect his good friend’s godson to be so capable!
“Do you just want to surprise me?”
Tang Mingkun chuckled and said, “If I had said it in advance, wouldn’t it not have the same effect as now? How is it? Isn’t my godson very good?”
“Great.”
Now, the old leader looked at Lu Ming with love and admiration for a junior. He knew that someone with such a temperament would not be an ordinary person. He did have the image of the legendary Emperor Star!
He sighed. “I like him very much. What the country needs now is such a young man to forge a new path! Your luck has always been good. Even I can’t help but be moved! If I had met him first, he might have already become an official!”
With Lu Ming’s talent and personality, he must be someone the higher-ups would focus on nurturing. Unfortunately, someone beat him to it!
Thinking of this, the more he looked at the young man in front of him, the more he liked him. He wished he could poach him in front of his good friend!
