Chapter 693: Pickup at the Airport
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
If one person was successful, the people that were related to him became powerful together.
Yang Ming had this feeling now. He was arrogant most of the time, but his own men were all self-righteous. Their relatives and friends were even more like this.
Guo Jianchao might think that he was a bad*ss, but he couldn’t be a bad*ss everywhere he went. But Guo Jianchao’s girlfriend felt that she was very great. She always had a feeling of superiority.
This phenomenon had existed since ancient times. The eunuchs around the emperor were not necessarily powerful in the palace, but their relatives could rule at their own place. Yang Ming could restrain his own men, but he couldn’t restrain their families and friends. This was a troublesome matter.
However, there was no better solution. He could only increase the strength of the restraint. Yang Ming wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Bao Sanli. Although Song Jiang’s underworld didn’t do anything too unusual, if the underworld’s friends and families were all pretentious, it would be a bit disturbing. In this way, it would inevitably be tackled by the police.
He didn’t think about these troublesome matters first, because the more busy matters were in front of him. That was, Shu Ya’s concert would be held soon. As the organizers, Ming Yang Heavy Industry Group and Ming Yang Entertainment were busy.
Originally, these were not related to Yang Ming. Yang Ming didn’t need to interfere with it, but Yang Ming had to find Shu Ya for something else. One reason was to ask about the ring. The other was to tell her not to speak of the previous incident.
Yang Ming wasn’t a particularly ruthless person, but if Shu Ya really threatened his safety, then Yang Ming would be in a dilemma.
No one felt there was anything wrong with Yang Ming going to pick up the passengers from the plane on behalf of the Ming Yang Heavy Industry Group. Both Yang Dahai and Feng Wanjiang were old, and they weren’t interested in celebrities. The concert was entirely for the sake of increasing the publicity of the company.
On the other hand, Wang Jinde liked Shu Ya very much, so he accompanied Yang Ming for the pickup. Wang Jinde knew that Yang Ming’s identity wasn’t normal, so he was more respectful to Yang Ming than to Yang Dahai.
The people who went with Yang Ming included Hou Zhenhan of Ming Yang Entertainment. Originally, Hou Zhenhan could choose not to attend it, but since he heard that Yang Ming was going, he had to follow naturally.
Although Shu Ya was a popular celebrity, it was not necessary for the CEO to personally welcome her. Hou Zhenhan came because of Yang Ming.
Donghai International Airport. A Boeing Sky Dream Bus that flew directly from Hong Kong landed slowly and docked at the edge of the airport.
The first-class coach had been booked by Shu Ya and her crew. Those that came along this time included the accompanying staff, sound engineers, lighting engineers and so on.
Of course, the flight that Shu Ya took was confidential. The first-class and economy class areas were isolated, so no passengers found out that a popular celebrity took the same plane as them.
Yang Ming, Hou Zhenhan, Wang Jinde, and the security personnel of the Ming Yan Security Company who were responsible for protecting Shu Ya’s safety were standing at the first-class exit.
Not long after, a crew member slowly walked out from the first-class exit. At a glance, Yang Ming saw Shu Ya wearing big sunglasses. Around her, there were four bodyguards protecting her safety.
The person In front of her was a woman in her thirties who took the lead to go to Yang Ming and Hou Zhenhan to say, “Hi, I’m Miss Shu’s agent. My surname is Xu. Are you guys the people from Ming Yang Company?”
“Hi, Miss Xu, I’m Hou Zhenhan, the CEO of Ming Yang Entertainment. This is Wang Jinde, the chairman’s assistant of Ming Yang Heavy Industry Group.” Hou Zhenhan didn’t introduce Yang Ming, because Yang Ming didn’t have any orders beforehand. He didn’t dare to introduce him casually.
Miss Xu was obviously shocked. She didn’t expect that her crew would receive such a high-standard reception – a CEO, an assistant to the chairman! Normally, the pick-up from the company was usually the company’s general staff. Sending a department manager was already showing respect, but she didn’t expect that two big shots would come!
Miss Xu wasn’t very clear about the strength of Ming Yang Entertainment, but the name of this Ming Yang Heavy Industry Group was famous in Hong Kong! It was the first in China to cooperate with Europe’s famous helicopter manufacturing company and automobile manufacturing companies.
The background and strength of this Ming Yang Heavy Industry Group could be imagined. However, since this entertainment company was also called Ming Yang, it meant that the two companies likely belonged to the same parent company.
Miss Xu wasn’t very familiar with the composition and structure of a company in the mainland, but the big boss of Ming Yang was definitely an extraordinary person.
Ms. Xu shook hands carefully with a sign of worry with Hou Zhenhan and Wang Jinde, and then she reached out to Yang Ming with a look of confusion. “Hi, may I ask who you are…”
“Hi, Miss Xu. My name is Yang Ming.” Yang Ming said very generously, but he didn’t say what he was doing here.
“Hi, Mr. Yang…” Miss Xu was feeling even more curious. Who is this young man? Could it be that he is the kind of playboy who wanted to take the opportunity to get to know Shu Ya?
One couldn’t blame Miss Xu for thinking as such, because these incidents had happened before. When they had concerts in other cities, some local dignitaries’ sons would find the organizers so that they could get close to Shu Ya in order to have a taste of her beauty.
However, Shu Ya ignored them. After all, Shu Ya was a celebrity in Hong Kong. People who knew the insider were roughly aware of Shu Ya’s background. They dared not go too far.
After shaking hands, Shu Ya and other people walked out accordingly. When Shu Ya saw Yang Ming, she was obviously shocked. She opened her mouth, and the words “Yang Ming” were nearly uttered from her mouth.
Yang Ming didn’t know Shu Ya’s real thoughts. When he saw Shu Ya’s peculiar look, Yang Ming thought that she saw him and thought of the incident on the Alice. So he smiled at her mysteriously and made a “keep quiet” gesture.
Shu Ya saw Yang Ming’s gesture, but she nodded obediently and then walked over there.
“Miss Shu, let me introduce you. This is Hou Zhenhan of Ming Yang Entertainment – President Hou. This is the chairman’s assistant of Ming Yang Heavy Industry Group, Wang Jinde…” When Miss Xu was going to introduce Yang Ming, she hesitated for in a moment. She was disdained by this kind of playboy but she also understood that in someone else’s territory, she needed to be respectful. So she said, “This is Yang Ming, Mr. Yang.”
“Hi, President Hou, Assistant Wang.” Shu Ya nodded to Hou Zhenhan and Wang Jinde and then reached out to Yang Ming. She smiled and said, “Hi, Mr. Yang Ming.”
“Hi…” Yang Ming frowned. What is Shu Ya doing? I asked her to pretend not to know me. But now she is great. She didn’t shake hands with the others, but she wants to shake hands with me?
It can’t be that she is afraid that I will assassinate her, right? Yang Ming thought so, but his facial expressions didn’t change. He politely reached out and shook hands with Shu Ya, and then he quickly released his hand.
Even Miss Xu who was next to her was stunned. Shu Ya always ignored these playboys who pursued her let alone getting into physical contact like shaking hands with them. She was even unwilling to talk to them.
How did she know that for Shu Ya and Yang Ming, shaking hands was normal to them? They used to hold hands!
“Everyone has worked hard. We have already booked the hotel. Let’s take a break and then we will discuss the specifics of the concert. Anyway, there are still three days until the concert. We aren’t in a rush.” Hou Zhenhan also noticed that Shu Ya’s crew was a little tired, so he suggested this.
“Miss Shu, what do you think?” Miss Xu naturally wanted to ask Shu Ya for advice.
“Well, then we will go to the hotel first.” Shu Ya wasn’t concerned about rest, but why Yang Ming would pick her up at the airport!
Is my guess true? Ming Yang Heavy Industry Group is a company of Yang Ming’s father, Yang Dahai? It seems that this possibility is very high, otherwise, Yang Ming wouldn’t be here.
When she was coming, Shu Ya’s mood was very excited along the way. After leaving Song Jiang for so many years, she finally set foot on this land again. Of course, these were not important. What made Shu Ya so excited was that on this trip to Song Jiang, she might be able to see the person she missed every single moment, her only lover.
Therefore, Shu Ya, who used to take a nap every time she went on a plane, didn’t sleep for the first time. She felt uneasy on the plane like a child’s first time on a plane.
This made Miss Xu, who was Shu Ya’s manager, feel baffled. However, since Shu Ya didn’t rest, she couldn’t rest as well. She could only talk with Shu Ya. In this way, other staff members also felt inappropriate to rest alone which was why the crew was slightly tired after getting off the plane.
As she got off the plane, Shu Ya was still thinking, When can I see him? Shu Ya prayed in her heart that the first person she would see when she reached Song Jiang was him.
