He Tao led five people along the way, walked out of the crowd, and walked onto the passage leading to the passenger ship not far away.
Behind them, there were bursts of exclamations immediately.
Vaguely, they heard all kinds of envious voices coming from behind:
"Wow, I didn't expect those five young people to be guests at the conference."
"You are so young. Are you a business elite?"
"I can't talk about business elites, but my family should be a rich second generation with some money. Business elites have to go through the VIP channel."
"Oh, the elite I am talking about is different from the elite you are talking about. Your standards are too high. In my eyes, anyone who has a company at home is considered a business elite."
"Yes, whether you are an elite or not depends on who you compare with. In my opinion, people who are born with a silver spoon in their mouth are successful people."
Hearing those voices, He Tao immediately straightened his back and walked more calmly.
Li Qiang and others also walked forward with their heads held high, as if they were really successful people.
However, such a good mood was suddenly broken when they arrived at the entrance of the passage and were less than thirty meters away from the pick-up passenger ship.
Because, they were suddenly stopped by two General Chamber of Commerce security personnel responsible for reviewing admission qualifications.
The two security personnel were holding walkie-talkies, wearing headsets on their ears, and were dressed in black suits. They looked very capable.
The two stopped the five people politely, stretched out their hands and said:
"Please show me your invitation letter, thank you."
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang, Qian Yue and others were stunned, and then subconsciously looked at He Tao.
Because they have never heard from each other that an invitation letter is needed to attend this business elite conference tonight.
He Tao turned around, gave Li Qiang and others a reassuring look, then took out his invitation letter from his arms and handed it over.
One of the security personnel took the invitation, looked at it carefully, stepped aside, and nodded politely to He Tao:
"There is no problem with the invitation. Sir, you can come in."
Seeing that the four people behind He Tao didn't move, he urged again:
"For the following people, please show me your invitation letter. Thank you."
At this time, the four of them were completely dumbfounded. Li Qiang opened his mouth dryly:
"we do not have."
When the two security personnel saw this, they didn't have any big reaction. They just said in a calm tone:
"You can't enter without an invitation."
Seeing this, He Tao immediately said to the two security personnel with a smile before Li Qiang and others spoke:
"You two, these are my friends, I brought them here."
"Oh, I am from the He family in Shanghai, and my family also runs a company. Can you be accommodating?"
The four words "Shanghai He Family" are still very important in Shanghai in the past two years. It cannot be said that everyone knows it, but it can be regarded as a household name. In the past, He Tao only had to say these four words, then Basically everything goes smoothly.
But today, he hit a wall.
The two General Chamber of Commerce staff just looked at him indifferently and said in an extremely decisive tone:
"Sorry, we only recognize the invitation letter, not any family in Shanghai."
"Today, even if people from the four major families come, they have to rely on invitations to get in."
All of a sudden, several people were stuck here.
Behind, other guests waiting to board the ship suddenly became agitated when they saw this situation.
Someone started shouting:
"Hey, what's going on in front? Why don't you let me pass?"
"Hurry up, hurry up, the conference is about to start. Don't waste other people's time. Don't you have an invitation?"
"If you don't have an invitation, just get out of here. I thought this is a place where I can get in if I want."
"Fuck, you were deceived by some scalper, haha. I heard in the past two days that there was a scalper selling tickets to this business management conference. One person was 888, and it turned out that many people were fooled. It's hilarious. "
"If you don't have an invitation letter in front of you, please leave quickly. There are no scalpers in this conference. You have been deceived."
The noisy sound came from behind like waves, making the four Li Qiang people standing at the entrance of the passage turn pale.
I thought I would be able to make a big splash today, but now it seems that I am afraid I will be embarrassed.
Qian Yue gently pushed her boyfriend Li Qiang and asked in a low voice:
"Didn't you say that He Tao can take us in? What's going on?"
Li Qiang's face was also a little uneasy, and he was very angry when he heard this. He first glared at Qian Yue and told him to shut up, then immediately walked to He Tao and shouted to the two security personnel:
"Hey, what's going on with you two? Are you blind? See clearly that this is Mr. He from the He family in Shanghai City, and you don't even give him face?"
"If you know what's going on, let us in quickly..."
Before he finished speaking, He Tao's expression suddenly changed.
These are people from the General Chamber of Commerce, and they eat from the public family. Not to mention the He family, even the four major families will not give them face.
If you dare to show off anything about the He family in front of others today, I am afraid that the problems of the He family will be put on the table in the conference room of the General Chamber of Commerce tomorrow.
He quickly reached out to cover Li Qiang's mouth, lowered his voice and cursed in the latter's ear:
"Shut up, you bastard, you want to kill me."
As he spoke, he quickly smiled apologetically and said to the two security personnel:
"You two, I'm sorry, my friend is not very good at talking, so don't take it to heart."
At this time, the guests waiting to board the ship became more and more anxious and urged again:
"What are you doing? If you want to get in, get in quickly. If you can't get in, get out!"
"You can't get in without an invitation. Stop struggling and get out of the way."
Even on the shore not far away, the onlookers began to talk curiously.
"Wow, is there someone who wants to get on the boat? It's so funny. If we could get on the boat, we would have done it by now. Is it their turn?"
"A few young people don't know the heights of the world. This is a national business elite conference tonight. They are very high-profile and the security is very strict. Come back quickly and don't be embarrassed."
"Video, video, I want the four of them to be on the headlines tonight!"
Qian Yue felt anxious after listening to those voices. At the same time, he was also very disappointed with He Tao and couldn't help complaining:
"How could this happen? Didn't He Tao promise to take us in? Why is it stuck?"
She is a very realistic person. When she wanted to follow He Tao in, she called him "Brother Tao" one after another. Now that the situation has changed, she immediately called him by his first name and began to deliberately distance himself.
The faces of Qiao Lele and Lu Jiajia were also a little ugly because of the comments from the people behind them.
This He Tao turns out to be such an unreliable person? If I had known this, I shouldn't have believed his lies.
He Tao didn't expect things to develop like this, and he felt extremely regretful.
If he had known that the review would be so strict this time, he should not have boasted about Haikou when he was at the airport. Now he was really embarrassed and was thrown into his grandma's house.
