Just when Dong Qiangqiang's right foot was still one meter away from the main entrance, the security guard in black put his hand on his shoulder.
"Sir, please show me your ID." The security guard ordered from behind Dong Qiangqiang. Grab, grab, grab
Dong Qiangqiang wanted to follow the crowd into the building, but his black hair was too obvious among the crowd, which instantly attracted the attention of the security guard. The security guard called him once, but he pretended not to hear and walked straight to the door. Seeing that he looked suspicious, a security guard took two steps and held him down.
Fortunately, Dong Qiangqiang was already prepared. He turned around calmly and greeted with a smile in the only French he knew: "Good morning."
"Your ID, sir." The security guard's face was colder than his French. Seeing that Dong Qiangqiang didn't understand, the security guard had to speak English again.
Dong Qiangqiang handed over his passport while still smiling: "I'm here for an interview."
The security guard withdrew his hand from Dong Qiangqiang's shoulder and took his passport. While flipping through it, he motioned for him to take off his sunglasses. When he turned to the visa page, the security guard raised his eyebrows and asked, "You entered the country from Germany?"
"I am studying finance at the University of Hannover in Germany. I am an exchange student at HEC Paris this year. I have just applied for an internship in the Investor Relations Department of Vivendi. I will be interviewed by Ms. Louise Plode soon." Dong Qiangqiang looked at The other party's eyes explained openly.
Dong Qiangqiang rarely lied. Today he was telling lies but he didn't blush or breath. Even he was a little surprised.
He believed that the security guard must have heard of the name HEC, and he also believed that a security guard might not know who the head of the investor relations department was. Of course, the name Louise Plode was not made up by him out of nowhere, but It was clearly written in the relevant position of Vivendi's annual report. He had just finished reading the company's annual report. Not only did he know the name Louise Plourde, but he could recite Louise Plourde's phone number if asked immediately.
The fact was just as Dong Qiangqiang expected, this security guard was also a newbie who had just joined the job. He didn't know if there was someone like Louise Plode in the company, but seeing that Dong Qiangqiang had fashionable long hair, decent clothes, and fluent language, He spoke neither condescendingly nor arrogantly, neither panicked nor evaded when making eye contact, and his expression was calm and composed. It was unclear whether he was a liar or not.
"Wait a minute." The security guard's attitude was obviously much more polite.
Dong Qiangqiang nodded, indicating that there was no problem.
The security guard stared at the newsstand not far away and asked the walkie-talkie on his shoulder: "This is the main entrance. Is there anyone named Louise Plourde in the company? From the Investor Relations Department."
A few seconds later, a male voice mixed with signal noise came back from the intercom: "Yes."
"Sir, please open the bag, we need to check it." Another security guard raised the metal detector in his hand and ordered.
Dong Qiangqiang had no choice but to throw his hiking bag on the ground and take out the contents one by one.
But as soon as he took out two items, the security guard suddenly said: "Okay, come in."
Dong Qiangqiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was finally out of danger and didn't fall on the little ghost guarding the door.
After passing another security gate, Dong Qiangqiang walked into the lobby on the first floor.
In the middle of the hall was a giant golden statue with a strong post-modern style, but Dong Qiangqiang had no idea what the statue represented. On three sides of the hall are office areas with venetian blinds, and a glass elevator on the left and right. The top of the golden statue faces a huge blue glass dome. The light at noon was excellent. The light shone from the dome, making the entire hall bright.
Dong Qiangqiang went through his plan again in his mind, and then walked to the information desk, smiled at the beautiful woman with exquisite makeup and said: "Hello, I am an investor from Germany, and I want to visit the Investor Relations Department. Ms. Louise Plourde.”
The beautiful woman at the front desk gave a very professional smile: "Can I ask what your name and company were when you made the reservation?"
Hearing this, Dong Qiangqiang instantly became petrified. He suddenly realized that he had made a mistake. As the saying goes, he forgot to make an appointment with the people from Vivendi. So what to do now? You definitely can’t ask the other person a stupid question like “Can we still meet without an appointment?” What should he say? His mind was spinning as fast as a motor.
Seeing that Dong Qiangqiang was as silent as a statue, the beautiful receptionist thought he didn't understand and asked again: "Sir, please tell me the name of you and your company."
"Oh, I am...investor Dong Qiangqiang of the Zen Fund." Dong Qiangqiang wiped his sweat guiltily and made up a name that was homophonic to the company's Chinese name and also had an oriental artistic conception.
The beautiful receptionist didn't say anything more and dialed the phone directly. While repeating what Dong Qiangqiang had just said, she raised her head and glanced at him and the bulging hiking bag on his back, with doubts and curiosity in her eyes.
Dong Qiangqiang made her look very uncomfortable, so she could only turn her face to the door.
"Sir," the beautiful receptionist asked behind him, "What's your name?"
"Dong Qiangqiang." Dong Qiangqiang slowed down and repeated, "German Zen Fund."
"Sir, there is no record of your reservation among the reservation visitors. Are you sure you made the reservation under this name? Or did you leave your phone number when you made the reservation?" The beautiful receptionist had a very good attitude.
"Isn't there a name and a company?" Dong Qiangqiang asked knowingly, thinking that it would be a hell if there was one, but he still had a look of disappointment and confusion on his face, "But I clearly called and made an appointment at that time. "
"It's possible that the reservation system's records of foreign names are inaccurate. Please tell me your mobile phone number and I'll check again." The beautiful receptionist enthusiastically wanted to help Dong Qiangqiang solve the problem.
Dong Qiangqiang pretended to report his mobile phone number, and the beauty receptionist found no record again without any suspense.
"Sorry sir, there is no appointment record with your mobile phone number." The beautiful receptionist made a regretful expression, "If you don't have an appointment, you can't see Ms. Louise Plode."
Dong Qiangqiang got up early in the morning and took the train for more than 7 hours, but he had to go back home without even meeting the person he wanted to see. He really couldn't accept this result, not to mention that this company would probably still decide on him. He couldn't and didn't want to give up so easily with Duanmu Destiny's company.
He decided to try his luck again.
"Well, that's it, madam." Dong Qiangqiang straightened his suit, calmed down his mood, then took off his sunglasses, and looked at the beauty's lake-blue eyes with a sincere expression, "I don't know why you don't have mine in your system. Appointment record, but Vivendi has made a lot of investments in China in the past few years. As an investor, I went through all kinds of hardships from distant China to Germany, and took more than ten hours of train ride from Germany to get here. I I have something very important to interview with Ms. Louise Plourde. I am very much looking forward to meeting her in person. It will be a huge loss for both of us if we don't see her today. So, can I make an appointment and meet her now? Got her?"
Dong Qiangqiang originally thought that his confession would arouse the other party's empathy, but unexpectedly, the beautiful receptionist just shook his head with regret and made no move to pick up the phone and help him ask again.
His heart instantly went cold.
