Although Aiwa’s Little Tyrant is in charge of the Gbox project, it will be under a new brand. Also, Microsoft owns some shares of Aiwa’s Little Tyrant now and is considered one of the bosses.
Paul Allen is representing Microsoft to conduct an inspection, and there is nothing wrong with it. But why did he call Feng Yu asking him to host him in China? This should be on purpose.
“Paul, I’m in New York, and not in China.”
“Feng, what’s wrong? You might not be a director in Microsoft, but you are still one of our shareholders. We are also partners, right? This is my first trip to China, and shouldn’t you host me personally?”
Paul Allen is in high spirits after Feng Yu was removed from Microsoft. By representing Microsoft to inspect the progress of their joint development of the gaming console, Paul Allen will remind Feng Yu of this unpleasant memory, making Feng Yu frustrated.
Paul Allen thinks that if he can find fault with Feng Yu’s men, Microsoft might have the chance to take over the management rights of this project.
Feng Yu heard what Paul Allen said. Fine… since you want me to accompany you to China, then I will be a good host!
“Ok. When are you leaving for Shenzhen?”
“Tomorrow.”
“Alright. I will return to Shenzhen today to make arrangements for you. I will make you feel at home.”
After hanging up, the smile on Feng Yu’s face disappears. China is my territory, and you want to find trouble with me there? I wonder what you are thinking. How can you claim to be one of the smartest people in history?
“Ralph! Book a flight to Shenzhen today.”
……
“Feng, are you returning to China? Are you going to Hong Kong?” Brother Ki asked after his assistant told him that he saw Ralph booking the air tickets for Feng Yu.
“I am going to Shenzhen. Paul Allen is going to Aiwa’s Little Tyrant for an inspection. I am going there to take a look too, as I don’t want that fellow to behave like a boss there.”
“It’s that fellow again? I am thinking of visiting Hong Kong to look for Little Brother Fu since I got nothing to do. Let’s fly back together.”
“Sure. I will get Ralph to book your tickets, and we will fly to Hong Kong before taking a boat ride to Shenzhen.”
“I can accompany you to Shenzhen too. Little Brother Fu told me that there are many fun places in Shenzhen.” Kirilenko’s eyes are sparkling.
Feng Yu: “…….” What did Fu Guangwei tell Brother Ki?! But Kirilenko should be around as he can make Paul drunk!
That evening, Feng Yu and Kirilenko flew back to Hong Kong and took a boat to Shenzhen. The Fu brothers also joined them.
“Brother Fu, are you really going to host that Paul?” Fu Guangwei asked angrily.
Paul Allen is not someone that can be friends with them, and Fu Guangwei felt they should just ignore him. If Paul Allen dares to interfere with Aiwa’s Little Tyrant, he will teach him a lesson!
“I must play host to him no matter what. After all, China has always been known as a state of etiquette, and we must think of ways on how to be a good host to him.” Feng Yu said with a cold laugh.
Fu Guangwei moved closer. “Brother Feng, you sounded like you have a plan in mind.”
Feng Yu smiles and asked. “Guangwei, have you eaten insects?”
Fu Guangwei paused for a second. “Insects? Brother Feng, I heard some people eat insects, but it feels gross to me. I had only eaten silkworm pupae before.”
Fu Guangzheng added. “Guangwei, insects are high in proteins and are very crunchy. It’s the perfect snack when drinking.”
Kirilenko’s eyes brighten up. “Snack for drinking?”
Feng Yu took a glance at Kirilenko. This guy’s Chinese had improved a lot. How can he understand such profound words? Could it be the word only understands is the word ‘drinking’ and thought Fu Guangzheng had mentioned a type of alcohol?
“Brother Ki, when Paul Allen arrives tomorrow, I will treat him to a feast with the best alcohol. I promise you will also experience something you had never experienced before.”
“The food is not important. What’s most important is alcohol!” Kirilenko nodded.
Duan Yongping had been waiting for Feng Yu outside of Aiwa’s Little Tyrant. He was surprised to see so many people with Feng Yu.
Although Feng Yu did not tell Duan Yongping beforehand, these few people are Manager Feng’s close friends. Maybe they are here to accompany Manager Feng. Duan Yongping still does not know Feng Yu is no longer a director with Microsoft.
“Manager Feng, should we had booked the nearest Quanjude restaurant for tomorrow’s banquet. Roast duck should be one of China’s most iconic dishes, and there will be other famous dishes.” Duan Yongping suggested.
“No… no… no… Quanjude cannot represent our Chinese cuisine. Their signature dishes are also not good enough. I heard the people in Shenzhen dares to eat anything. Is it true?” Feng Yu asked with a smile.
“Huh?! That’s not really true. But we eat everything that you can find elsewhere in China, and there is some food which only we dare to eat. For example, there is a dish called San Jiao (Three cries). It’s live baby mice and eaten live after dipping it in the sauce. The baby mice, which the eyes are still closed, will cry once when picked up with chopsticks, cry one more time when dipped into the sauce and cry the final time when we bite into it.”
Fu Guangwei covered his mouth and rushed out of the room to vomit after hearing it.
Fu Guangzheng’s face also changed. How can you eat a baby mouse alive?!”
Only Kirilenko is unfazed as he doesn’t understand what Duan Yongping said. When he is with Feng Yu, he never brings his translator along. Feng Yu looked at Kirilenko and explained this dish to him, wanting to look at his grossed out expression.
Actually, Feng Yu had pinched himself secretly to stop himself from vomiting.
But after Feng Yu explained to Kirilenko, Kirilenko got excited and wants to try this dish tomorrow.
“Old Duan, do you have anything which people normally eat? For example, stinky tofu, insects, or something which foreigners had never tried before?” Feng Yu asked. He can accept eating insects, but cannot accept eating something alive.
“Insects? Now you mentioned it, I remember there is a restaurant that specializes in insect cuisine that is located on the outskirts. All their dishes are made from insects!”
Fu Guangzheng asked cautiously. “What sort of insects are they using?”
“I heard their hundred insect banquet include crabs, mudskipper, snakes, silkworm pupae, bee pupae, spiders, centipedes, scorpion…”
“*Gagged…” Fu Guangzheng covered his mouth and ran out of the room to vomit with his cousin.
Feng Yu’s face also turns pale as he has goosebumps after hearing snakes, mudskippers, centipedes, etc.
Kirilenko looked at them excitedly and asked Feng Yu. “Feng, what did he say? Did he mention more interesting food?”
Feng Yu nodded and forced a smile.
