374 International Business Conference (2/2)

At first, they didn't know what was going on. Then they were informed that the delegates were greeting Sir Lu Jianhong and Jin Liwei from Jin Corporation.

”Should we go and greet them as well, Father—I mean President?” Long Jian asked, quickly correcting his form of address to Long Tengfei.

Although Long Tengfei didn't have any rule for his children to call him ”President” or ”CEO” at work, Long Jian started calling him ”President” after hearing Long Hui doing the same while working.

”Hmm… We should. They are our future in-laws after all,” Long Hui murmured.

'I wasn't asking you,' Long Jian retorted inside.

Despite this, he still smiled at his older brother and nodded. He thought that Long Hui was referring to Grandpa Lu as their future in-law. Like most of the guests during Long Tengfei's birthday party, Long Jian also thought that Lu Zihao was Iris' fiancé. He still didn't know that it was actually Jin Liwei.

”We'll greet them later. There are too many people around them,” Long Tengfei said.

The crowd around Jin Corporation's group only multiplied as more delegates arrived at the venue. At the moment, it seemed that Grandpa Lu was the biggest attraction.

Finally, a PA System announcement instructed everyone to please make their way inside where the opening ceremony would be held. The delegates immediately returned to their own groups. Ushers guided each group to their own respective seating areas.

The executives and delegates from the biggest multi-national companies in the world were given the best seats at the front. Of course, Jin Corporation was among them. The company's presence in Asia was undeniable.

Jin Liwei and Grandpa Lu sat in the front row along with some of the other executives from the top companies in the world.

Long Tengfei, his sons and the others from Long Industries sat near the middle

Later, the opening ceremony finally began. The MC appeared on the stage. Beside him was a beautiful women in an eye-catching red business suit. She looked sharp and powerful but still feminine at the same time.

The foreign delegates had no idea who this woman in a red suit was, but most of the Chinese delegates, especially the younger ones, recognized her after looking a little more closely. They began murmuring among each other, wondering why she was on the stage. Was she also an MC? Why her?

The male MC and the beautiful woman stood at the centre of the stage. Each of them were holding a microphone.

”Good morning, ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the opening ceremony of this year's International Business Conference! I'll be your master of ceremony for today,” the MC greeted and introduced himself both in Mandarin and in English.

Similarly, Iris also introduced herself both in Mandarin and then in English. ”Hello, everyone! My name is Iris Long, and I'll be the official interpreter for this opening ceremony and in selected conferences for the entire duration of this event.”

The Chinese delegates' mind went blank after hearing what she said.
