"Ding dong!"

"Who is it? I just took off my suit!"

Lu Feng frowned, then walked out of the bedroom and came to the door.

An electronic screen hung on the door, displaying the scene outside.

A figure dressed in formal attire stood at the door, holding something that looked like an invitation.

At a glance, Lu Feng recognized the person as Xu Xiangjun, who had come with Ren Zhongguo not long ago.

"Looks like they're here to deliver an invitation to me."

He pressed the switch and opened the door.

"Chairman Lu, Chairman Ren asked me to come and deliver an invitation to you!"

Upon seeing Lu Feng appear, Xu Xiangjun immediately handed over the invitation in his hand.

"You've worked hard, Mr. Xu. Please come in and have a seat!"

Lu Feng accepted the invitation and made way for Lu Feng.

"No, no, Chairman Lu, as the initiator of this banquet, Weihua Group needs to get there as soon as possible to entertain some people."

Xu Xiangjun waved his hand repeatedly and did not go in.

Normally, he would never refuse Lu Feng's invitation, since it would be an opportunity to get closer to Lu Feng.

But not now. This banquet was jointly initiated by OOPP and VVII. Although they are not the main party in charge of the event, they are still considered half hosts. As the chairman of VVII, he needs to arrive before the guests arrive.

Seeing this, Lu Feng did not insist.

"Alright, let's talk next time. What time is the banquet? I need to get there!"

"It will officially start at 8 p.m., so please arrive around 8 p.m."

"Well, since Chairman Xu has things to attend to, I won't keep you any longer. See you at the banquet!"

Lu Feng nodded slightly, indicating that he understood. He was about to close the door, but stopped a second later.

Will Old Master Ren attend this banquet?

he asked curiously.

"No, the former chairman hasn't attended such an occasion in a long time."

"Moreover, it was just a Qualcomm board member who came this time. If Qualcomm's CEO or chairman had come in person, the former chairman might have made an appearance."

Xu Xiangjun shook his head, his tone carrying a hint of disdain.

It seems like this Qualcomm board member is just so-so.

And this is indeed the case.

Qualcomm's board members may be big names for other mobile phone manufacturers, but they are not so important to Huawei, which was the first to master 5G and has its own self-developed chips.

Having the chairman personally intervene is already a great honor for Qualcomm.

As for the founder, sorry, only Qualcomm's chairman could come in person.

After seeing Xu Xiangjun off, Lu Feng threw the invitation on the table and continued changing his clothes. In order to prevent himself from not having enough to eat at the banquet, he also asked the hotel to prepare a bowl of braised beef noodles for him.

Soon, he changed into a suit specially made for him by an Italian bespoke tailor.

The suit is impeccably made; there is not a single flaw in either the materials or the cut.

What's most striking about this dress is the material used for its buttons. Everywhere buttons could be used on the dress, they were replaced with sapphires, which shone brilliantly under the lights.

However, even such beautiful clothes were nothing special in Lu Feng's eyes, not as fragrant as the steaming bowl of beef noodles in front of him.

"Hmm! This noodle is good, it's strong!"

Lu Feng, who had just taken a small bite, widened his eyes and then, disregarding his image, grabbed his chopsticks and stuffed the food into his mouth.

His appearance was no different from that of an internet celebrity on Douyin called "Hai Chi Wang" (Sea Eater King).

"Ding Dong"

However, before he could take more than a few bites, the doorbell rang again.

"WTF! Seriously, can't we even enjoy our meal in peace?!"

He cursed under his breath, then quickly walked to the door, wanting to see who was disturbing his meal.

Through the small screen on the door, he saw who had disturbed his meal.

"Old Lei?"

Upon seeing the person on the screen, he let out a weak sigh and opened the door.

"Chairman Lu, I'm here!"

Unaware of the situation, Lei Zheng greeted him warmly.

"Hey! Come in!"

Seeing his happy expression, Lu Feng ultimately refrained from uttering the words he wanted to curse.

What's wrong with Chairman Lu?

Lei Zheng keenly sensed the change in Lu Feng's emotions and secretly made a guess.

Could it be that they're worried about Qualcomm?

However, while he was wondering what was going on with Lu Feng, Lu Feng had already returned to his room to continue eating his noodles.

For Lu Feng, nothing is more important than eating right now.

"Chairman Lu, we're about to attend the banquet. What are you going to eat at this hour?"

Lei Zheng, ever the familiar type, sat down on the sofa and asked curiously, forgetting that just half an hour earlier, he had finished a whole set meal to prevent himself from getting hungry at the banquet.

"I'll just eat a couple of bites to tide me over, I'm a little hungry!"

Lu Feng replied without turning his head.

Upon hearing this, Lei Zheng shut his mouth. When your boss is eating, try to talk as little as possible, otherwise you can easily make your boss angry.

He sat there like a primary school student being called to the teacher's office, a sight that Lu Feng found rather strange.

"Mr. Lei, I have a question for you. If the group and Qualcomm fall out after today's banquet, will it have any impact on your rice business?"

After swallowing a mouthful of noodles, Lu Feng spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Lei Zheng's expression changed rapidly.

Qualcomm is a world-class chip company, especially in the mobile phone field where it holds a pivotal position. It is inevitable that DaMi Group will have in-depth cooperation with it.

As far as he knows, many of the dozen or so mobile phones currently on sale under the Dami Group are equipped with Qualcomm chips.

If the company were to fall out with Qualcomm now, it would have a significant impact on the DaMi Group's mobile phone business.

Because the other party is very likely to suspend supplying them.

However, even though a falling out with Qualcomm would have a significant impact on the DaMi Group, Lei Zheng still shook his head in response.

"Chairman Lu, judging from the current situation, if Qualcomm and DaMi suspend their cooperation, it will have some impact on DaMi, but the impact will not be significant."

"We've been on guard against them. Even if Qualcomm were to cut off supplies right now, we have enough chips in our reserves to finish producing the remaining phones. Then, for the next phone, we can simply replace the chip!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Lu Feng, a hint of barely perceptible heartache in his eyes.

This boss, who was about the same age as his son, carried the hopes and burdens of too many people on his shoulders. He didn't want to, and couldn't, put all the pressure on the chairman alone.

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng nodded slightly.

"As long as it doesn't cause too much of an impact, I won't have to worry so much. I hope they came with good intentions this time, otherwise I don't mind letting them experience my methods!"
