Chapter 402 Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou

Jiang Yimeng, who had been silent on the side, was full of self-blame when she saw this scene. Although she knew that Bai Qing attached great importance to Ding Ning, she did not seize the opportunity.

If she had paid a slight attention to Ding Qianlie, the current situation would not have happened and she would not have missed the great opportunity to please Ding Ning.

“My sister is the Chairwoman of Longteng Group, and the group’s development company wants to develop the land of Fuxing Road Old Area, but since Ninghai’s local real estate businesspeople joined hands to make stumbling blocks in secret, the development project was hampered. I give you an opportunity to show your value: Help my sister settle the matter with these people.”

If this were his company, Ding Ning would not even indirectly ask Bai Qing for help, but this was related to his sister’s career, so he could not remain pretentious anymore and directly asked for help.

“Longteng Group? You are the business goddess Chairwoman Ding Qianlie?”

Bai Qing opened his eyes wide in shock and patted his forehead with chagrin. “Oh, my poor memory! That’s why the name Ding Qianlie is so familiar to me. You are the famous business goddess in our Ninghai. Sorry, I didn’t recognize you!”

“Business goddess? Sister, I have never thought you are so famous.”

For Ding Ning, this was the first time he had heard his sister’s nickname, so he was surprised with his mouth wide open.

Ding Qianlie looked calm and smiled at Bai Qing politely. “Childe Bai, you flattered me. Compared with my nickname flatteringly given by the outsiders, Childe Bai Qing, General Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou, your name is really resounding to me. I have long heard of your great name.”

Ding Ning was surprised again and looked at Bai Qing incredulously. “You are the General Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou?”

The small Real Estate Industry Association where Zhu Chang’an worked was not comparable to the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou, and its full name was Shenzhou Business Alliance Cooperation Association.

Its members were not just from one city and two because it was a business alliance composed of the top business elites from all walks of life in the country. In the business world of Shenzhou, it was a well-deserved behemoth, which had “tentacles” that had spread to the whole world and was also quite influential internationally.

It was said that the requirements for joining the chamber of commerce were extremely high. One could not become its member only because of his wealth, since it had set almost stringent requirements for personal company-running ability, management ability, integrity, vision, the breadth of mind, and other elements.

The purpose of the Chamber of Commerce was to unite the top businesspeople of the entire Shenzhou to make joint efforts, help and benefit each other, and strengthen cooperation, working together to promote the economic development of Shenzhou.

It was fair to say that the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou had gathered a small group of people who were the topmost and most excellent ones in the business world of Shenzhou. One could not simply say that their wealth was as much as that of a nation. As long as they wanted, they could even destroy the economy of many countries in a very short time.

Ding Ning quite agreed to the concept of the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou, which was an organization made of patriotic businesspeople, and each of its member companies could be listed among the top 500 companies in the world.

They gathered together to resist the economic aggression launched by the Western powers with their huge wealth. To some extent, they were the guardians of the economic order of Shenzhou and were also a sharp knife for the economy of Shenzhou to shine in the international arena. They blazed trails and broke paths for Shenzhou and defeated the economic aggression of hostile nations time after time.

Thus, Ding Ning paid tribute to Bai Qing. “I’ve never thought that this second brother who likes showing off is the General Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou.”

Bai Qing blushed, dryly coughed, and said, “Chairwoman Ding, you flattered me. I am only a deputy chairman, not the general chairman.”

“Ah, you are a deputy chairman, but I thought you are the general chairman. In fact, you and Zhu Chang’an are on the same level.”

Ding Ning ridiculed him mischievously, making Bai Qing feel helpless. The level of Zhu Chang’an was not comparable to his level. He knew that Ding Ning was joking, so he ignored that and shook his head with a small smile.

In Shenzhou, no matter how high or low an official position was, others would omit the word “deputy” in etiquette when addressing the official. When the chairman was not present, addressing him “chairman” was not wrong.

“Don’t try to change the topic. I just want to know if you can solve my sister’s problem.”

Ding Ning did not decide to let him avoid the problem. What was the point of being the Deputy Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou? Anyway, he was still his sworn brother.

“Can, I must solve it!”

Bai Qing answered resolutely and looked at Ding Qianlie solemnly. “Chairwoman Ding, as the Deputy Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou, I seriously invited you to join our Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou.”

Ding Qianlie opened her eyes wide in shock. For a short while, she did not expect Bai Qing to send such an invitation, but she knew what it meant to join the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou.

This meant that Longteng Group would have the most top-level human relationships, the most efficient business information channels, the most abundant financial support, and the most powerful partners in the business circle of Shenzhou. Longteng Group would take off because of this and become one of the commercial giants of Shenzhou in the shortest time.

This was what she had been dreaming of, but when this came, she became hesitant and looked to Ding Ning for help. She knew that the current Longteng Group was very strong, but it was still a long way for it to become a member of the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou. If the company joined it from the side door with the help of Bai Qing, other giants of the Chamber of Commerce were likely to be dissatisfied and attack Longteng Group. This was something that she didn’t want to see.

Ding Ning saw worries in her eyes and encouraged her with a smile. “Sister, I trust you. Just make your decision.”

Bai Qing seemed to have seen her through and said calmly, “Chairwoman Ding, don’t worry. Inviting you to join the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou is not my personal idea, but the intention reached by the senior leaders of our Chamber of Commerce after a group discussion. We are very optimistic about your personal potential and the future development prospect of Longteng Group. You are the preparatory member of our Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou, but since you are too low-key and Longteng Group is a Mi Country’s company, we have not invited you.”

“Ah, you want Longteng Group to join your Chamber not because of my brother?”

Ding Qianlie’s beautiful eyes glinted with a different color, and she was full of pride. Since the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou could take a fancy to her company and wanted it to become its member, it was enough to prove her value. She felt the honor.

“Of course not. Even the chairman has no right to allow some company to be our member, let alone I am just a deputy chairman. To be honest, we worry about Longteng Group being a Mi Country’s company because patriotism is the principle each member must have. If not so, we would have sent you our invitation letter after we received the news that you made more than ten billion Mi dollars on Huaer Street.”

Bai Qing smiled gently. “But I believe that my brother’s sister will never be a spy of Mi Country, so I vouched for you, hoping you to join the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou earlier, and the difficulties you face will also be solved. In Ninghai, no one will be so stupid to trouble you.”

“Wow, sister, you also have the great achievement of making ten billion Mi dollars on Huaer Street. Why didn’t you tell me?”

Ding Ning looked at Ding Qianlie with awe and admiration, so her vain glory was greatly satisfied, and she said with a charming look in her eyes, “You have never asked me! If I told you, it would be like I showed it off before you.”

“You must show it off. With such an excellent sister, I feel so proud!”

Ding Ning took her arm and praised her with a flattering look.

“Look at you! You are not young anymore but still like showing off. Others will laugh at you.”

Ding Qianlie gave him a spoiled look and a coquettish reproach.

“Don’t you know your sister is so excellent?”

Bai Qing was a little confused about their sister-brother relationship and asked in surprise.

“No, my sister and I have been separated for more than 20 years. We just met some time ago.”

Ding Ning did not hide it from him and said naturally.

Bai Qing looked at Ding Qianlie thoughtfully, feeling a little hesitant. If Ding Ning grew up with his elder sister, there would be no problem that he vouched for Ding Qianlie, but if Ding Ning just met her, he would not be sure.

Before he could confirm that Ding Qianlie was not the spy of Mi Country, he would not easily vouch for her.

Ding Qianlie was so smart and instantly found his concern, which stimulated the pride in her bone, so she refused calmly. “Chairman Bai, thank you for your kindness. Longteng Group now has little trouble, but I believe that I can handle it. I don’t think this is the right condition for our group to join the Chamber of Commerce of Shenzhou with. Let’s talk about it later.”

“Sister, what’s the matter with you? Why give up such a good opportunity?”

Ding Ning asked with confusion.

Ding Qianlie turned her hand, took his arm, and smiled sweetly. “Trust me. I won’t rely on anyone, but I will let Longteng Group take off.”

Ding Ning looked at the embarrassed Bai Qing and nodded thoughtfully. “Sister, don’t worry. We sister and brother will work together, and difficulties will must be overcome.”

“Brother Ding, I’m here.”

The door of the club was pushed open again, and Xu Minglu quickly walked over with a smile.

Ding Ning patted his forehead and apologized, “Brother Xu, I’m so sorry to have asked you to come here yourself.”

“Hey, we are brothers. Don’t stand on the ceremony.”

Xu Minglu took out a packet of soft Chunghwa cigarettes with a smile, passed cigarettes to Ding Ning and Bai Qing, and nodded at Bai Qing. “Childe Bai, long time no see.”

“Secretary Xu is a very busy man and seldom comes to my club. The auction will begin soon. If you like anything, just buy, and I will pay.”

Bai Qing seemed to be very familiar with Xu Minglu and greeted him like a friend.

Xu Minglu shook his head with a smile and refused. “Childe Bai, don’t bother. I am not a senior official, but this position makes others envy.”

“Hehe, then do whatever you want, but let me go to the front and say hello. It’s time for the auction.”

Bai Qing greeted him and left first. Just now he was hesitant and embarrassed. Although that was not what he wanted, he didn’t actually know how to face Ding Ning.

“Brother Xu, this is my sister Ding Qianlie, Chairwoman of Longteng Group!”

Ding Ning introduced her to Xu Minglu instantly.

As his eyes glinted, Xu Minglu shook hands with Ding Qianlie politely and said enviously, “I’ve never thought that Ninghai’s commercial goddess is Brother Ding’s sister. Being sister and brother, one is a business genius, and the other is a medical genius. I really envy your parents for their excellent genes. I don’t know what kind of people can give birth to such a talented brother and sister.”

“Oh, Brother Xu knows my sister?”

Ding Ning asked in surprise.

“Mayor Du is in charge of economy. I’ve been with him all the time, and I’ve heard about Ninghai’s business circle. Ding Qianlie, of Longteng Group, rose up in Ninghai two years ago. Even her first move was influential. She did one thing under cover of doing another and merged nine large businesses. Her achievement was so great that even Mayor Du praised her. How could I not know her? But I just didn’t expect the famous business goddess to be Brother Ding’s sister.”

Xu Minglu praised her sincerely, making Ding Ning honored and proud. “The top leader of Ninghai appreciates her. That means she is quite outstanding.”

Ding Qianlie said with a graceful smile. “Brother Xu, I am flattered. I feel so ashamed.”

“Haha, if others know that the famous business goddess called me Big Brother, I guess many of them will admire me a great deal.”

Xu Minglu was very good at warming the atmosphere. A harmless joke had silently narrowed the distance between them, so Ding Ning heaved a secret sigh, “One can learn something everywhere in life.”
