Simon and the personnel core members of the Westeros system in Ukraine finished their dinner, and everyone walked out of the restaurant box laughing.
In the corridor outside the box, in addition to Simon's security team, there is also a square-faced middle-aged man in his thirties who is wearing a black suit and has a meticulous appearance. Waiting outside, when he saw Simon, he immediately stepped forward a little and stood politely as a bodyguard. I reached out to block the cordon and said, "Mr. Westeros."
The middle-aged man's name is Andrei Vodmirka.
I just saw you this afternoon.
Andrei is the president of Rivni Resort and Entertainment Company, which controls the absolute majority shareholding of Rivni Northern Spa Resort and Hunting Ground.
Simon was a little surprised when he saw the other party, but he still smiled and stepped forward to shake his hand: "Andre, what's the matter?"
Andrei Vodmirka shook hands with Simon, followed the big boss to the elevator, and said respectfully: "Mr. Westeros, you said that if you are free tonight, you will go to the resort to watch a show. I will come over to see you for dinner. Do you want to go there later so that they can make arrangements in advance?”
The others followed Simon and walked out together. They saw that Andrei Vodmirka was obviously about the same height as Simon, but seemed to be shorter when he was next to the big boss. No one looked down on the other person. , but I feel that this is a guy who can seize opportunities.
The power of the Westeros system in Ukraine is still expanding. If you leave a little more impression on the big boss now, it may be an opportunity to get a higher position in the future.
After all, even the most shrewd boss will often habitually appoint subordinates with whom he is relatively familiar.
What's more, since the opening of the business, Andrei Vodmirka, who graduated from the University of Kiev and decisively abandoned his official position in the Kiev government to join the Westeros system two years ago, has not only single-handedly operated the two major assets of Rivni Resort and Entertainment Company , he has also managed the resort and hunting grounds in a prosperous manner since his opening, which is enough to prove that he is a very capable person.
People who don't lack ability and can put down their own arrogance can often climb higher.
At Simon's current level, employing people is far more important than doing things. For the layout of Ukraine, the focus is actually also on employing people. Even if Ukraine collapses again, there will be no shortage of elites with outstanding abilities. In this country at a low point, the elites are easier for Simon to use, and their loyalty is relatively high.
Andrei Vodmirka, 36, happens to be an executive in Ukraine who can be noticed by Simon.
When we were at the hot spring resort in the afternoon, we just casually said that since the other party came to our door and happened to be staying at the hot spring manor in the north tonight, Simon agreed.
The other people who followed Simon around all afternoon dispersed after he spoke. Only Simon and his convoy, Andrei Vodmirka and others left the city of Rivni again and arrived at the hot spring resort about half an hour later. .
The resort is brightly lit at night.
Whether they come to experience a military theme park, summer hunting or other purposes, overseas tourists usually choose to stay in this resort about 30 kilometers away from the city. As summer arrives and fame gradually spreads, more than 600 tourists from all over the world live in the resort.
In just two months since its opening, the number of guests has reached 60% of the resort's capacity of 1,000 people, which is a very good achievement.
In fact, many people know it well.
The reason why this place is so prosperous is that in addition to the rich entertainment activities, it is also cheap.
And, women.
Just like Hong Kong truck drivers and even cleaners in China can go to the mainland to keep one or two young and beautiful mistresses, tourists from Western Europe and North America, even ordinary middle-class people, come to Ukraine and spend a month or two With a low salary, you can enjoy benefits that are absolutely unimaginable in resorts in developed areas.
Simon had just gotten out of the car at an internal parking lot of the resort. He glanced around and could see some various men with their arms around young local girls in the square or corridor not far away.
Having been a human being for two lifetimes and experiencing almost a dozen lives, Simon actually had no feelings about this. But Andrei Vodmirka, who got off the other car, noticed the big boss's gaze and regretted not making arrangements in advance. After all, the young boss's mind was unpredictable, and it was hard to say whether he would be right about some scenes. produce disgust.
Fortunately, someone came over quickly and diverted Simon's attention.
This time it was the person in charge of the military theme park, named Alexander Nagiyev.
Different from Andrei Vodmirka's handsome appearance, the 39-year-old Alexander Nagiyev is a little bald, but as the saying goes, Alexander Nagiyev's resume is actually from the security point of view. Andre is even more outstanding. He holds a doctorate in economics from Moscow University during the former Soviet Union. He also studied in the Democratic Republic of Germany and also abandoned politics to pursue business.
This is actually one of Simon’s pocket-packing lists.
Simon withdrew his gaze and greeted Alexander, feeling quite satisfied that the other person could appear here, mainly for Andre.
Before the opening of this resort, Simon emphasized to the two of them the need to work together, because this place is originally a large connected resort center. If it weren't for the special situation of the military theme park, Simon would definitely integrate the three. To Rivni Resorts and Entertainment Company.
After Andrei Vodmirka invited Simon, he did not have the exclusive opportunity to contact the big boss. Instead, he called Alexander Nagiev together, which shows that the relationship between the two must be very good.
This also confirmed something again.
Andre also noticed the different meaning in the big boss's eyes when he greeted Alexander.
In fact, the main reason is that neither Andre nor Alexander is the kind of person who is satisfied with the status quo. Of course, they understand that only by working together can they make the best of the project here in order to gain advancement. Simon's look just now made Andre sure that the big boss understood his intentions. Even so far tonight, he had gained a lot.
After everyone said hello, Simon said to Andre: "Celia and the others have to go back first. You arrange some people to see them off."
Celia and Girl A also followed Simon around all afternoon. They saw that it was a man's world here, so they had no intention of continuing to join in the fun and planned to return to the hot spring manor to rest first.
Simon's motorcade has a total of three vehicles, two groups of bodyguards, and Neil Bennett, who personally serves as Simon's driver.
After all, he is in a foreign land. Simon is not so naive as to think that this country is all kind to him, so he will not send bodyguards to leave rashly. He can only ask Andre to send someone to escort him. Fortunately, the most important thing here is the security team. , after all, when it comes to foreign tourists, if something goes wrong, it will be an international incident.
Andre agreed quickly and ordered his entourage in front of Simon to send two cars to escort the two ladies back.
Simon also asked Neil to be the driver for the two women.
After all, the team here cannot reach a level that he can fully trust.
After arranging these, Simon walked to the resort theater not far away under Andre's personal guidance. The person in charge really spent some time and judged based on some recent signs that Simon might come, so he invited Ukraine's top theater in Kiev The ballet troupe arrived to perform.
Simon actually has no interest in professional ballet performances.
Um.
Mainly because of the tutu.
However, people around him believed that Simon liked ballet based on signs such as the women around him and the song "Bach's Last Day" last year.
Due to some instinctive thoughts of the superior, Simon would not deliberately explain this misunderstanding.
Just like it then.
Today is Saturday.
It was supposed to be a performance day, but the 500-seat theater had no program and was only catering to Simon.
Everyone sat down in the theater, and Andre realized that it was not good for the hall to be too empty. Fortunately, the big boss beside him didn't seem to care, so he changed the title Simon just mentioned: "Boss, they are already here Backstage preparations, the Kiev Ballet's best piece is "Swan Lake", but if you want to listen to other songs, you can also arrange it now."
Simon shook his head slightly and said, "Let them only perform the third act."
The complete "Swan Lake" has four acts in total and lasts for two hours. Among them, the third act where the black swan seduces the prince is the most exciting in terms of plot and technique. Even if Simon is not interested in professional ballet performances, there are so many memories in his mind. Be clear about this.
Andre actually had the same idea. If his boss watched the two-hour performance of "Swan Lake" in its entirety, there would be no room for other activities, so he quickly gave the order.
It takes some preparation time to start the performance, but of course it won't be a cold start.
Simon took the initiative to ask Andre and Alexander, who were sitting on the left and right, about the management of the three entertainment venues. Both of them knew everything and tried their best to show it.
"Actually, boss, I think we can plan to expand the hot spring resort now, and the military theme park and hunting ground can be used as supporting facilities. I think that when the fame spreads further, Rivni is very hopeful to receive millions of people every year Overseas tourists, when the time comes, the size of the existing resorts will be far from enough.”
The original hot spring resort was built entirely as a supporting facility for the military theme park. Simon heard Andre directly reverse the locations of the resort and the theme park, and looked at Alexander on the other side with a smile: "What do you think?"
"Boss, I actually think so," said Alexander Nagiyev: "Theme parks seem to be booming now, but in fact it is difficult to last. In comparison, it is easier for resorts to grow bigger."
Simon asked: "So, what do you think are the advantages of developing tourism in a place like Rivne Oblast, which is not dependent on mountains or water, or what are your highlights in attracting tourists?"
The highlight
The two people looked at each other, and Andre gave an answer: "Casino."
