Li Mu accompanied his parents around the Summer Palace. Li Ziwei not only worried about small things such as shade, sun protection, and buying water, but also told Li Mu's parents many historical stories about the Summer Palace, such as when it started construction. For another example, Wanshou Mountain is actually the earth dug out when Kunming Lake was excavated, and then piled up in Kunming Hubei, and was later renamed Wanshou Mountain.
In addition, each scenic spot in the Summer Palace is based on which Jiangnan gardens, etc. It is clear and logical. Although Li Mu has been to the Summer Palace countless times, he knows nothing about many details. He only knows that this is the back garden of the Empress Dowager Cixi. , and he prefers to take his girls to go boating on Kunming Lake, especially electric boats that save worry and effort...
After the afternoon arrangements for the summit ended, the organizer did not arrange another dinner party, but gave all guests the opportunity to meet freely. Song Liang sent out dozens of business cards today and received hundreds of business cards, especially from Yanjing real estate developers. Everyone rushed to get to know him. Before the meeting ended, many people wanted to invite Song Liang to have dinner with him, but they found that they couldn't find Song Liang if they were not careful.
After Song Liang left the venue, he left by car with Du Fei and Chen Fang. Because he wanted to treat Li Mu's parents to dinner, Song Liang asked Chen Fang to book a hotel in advance. After sending Du Fei back to the company, he drove there alone to make the reservation. of hotels.
Li Mu received the address, and after accompanying his parents throughout the Summer Palace, he drove them to the hotel Song Liang had booked.
Li’s father and Li’s mother have always had a very good impression of Song Liang and his family. When the family first opened Metersbonwe, he was the one who helped a lot. Not only did they provide free advertising on the building, he also brought a large number of young people to the store. On the opening day, not only did they send flower baskets, but they also came to cut the ribbon. Later, the reason why Li’s father and Li’s mother’s business in Haizhou has been so smooth has a lot to do with Song Liang’s face. With Song Liang here, no department Or I have personally caused trouble for Li’s father and Li’s mother.
Later, when Li Mu bought a house, he bought it directly in the community developed by Song Liang, and the two families were neighbors. Li's father and Li's mother also had a good relationship with Song Liang's wife. The latter often brought their children to visit the house, and they had a close relationship. Now they have to Knowing that Li Mu and Song Liang had cooperated in Yanjing, Li's parents and Li's mother naturally had a better impression of Song Liang, so the atmosphere at the dinner table was also very harmonious.
After the afternoon sessions of the summit were all over, Wang Runqing directly invited many representatives of first-line real estate companies to have dinner at the hotel where the summit was held. The atmosphere was very high-profile, and he looked like the top industry leaders were in the same camp as him, seeming to be showing off to Weilan. Pressure in disguised form.
Wei Lan was inevitably depressed, but fortunately Xiao Chenfeng kept his word. As soon as the meeting was over, he made a special trip to find Wei Lan and said to Wei Lan: "Wei Lan, I still have some media to deal with. Please take care of the meal." Wait me a moment."
Wei Lan knew that Xiao Chenfeng, as the organizer, would definitely have to accept interviews from the media, but she was quite touched that Xiao Chenfeng could still think about the agreement with her and came to explain it to her in person. After receiving the cold shoulder for a day, he was Apart from Li Mu, he was the second person to treat him kindly, so he nodded hurriedly and said, "Mr. Xiao, please do your work first, I'm not in a hurry."
Xiao Chenfeng smiled lightly and said casually: "Please, you can call me Chen Feng or Xiao Chenfeng, but don't call me Mr. Xiao, it's too intrusive." After that, he didn't wait for Wei Lan to respond, and said hurriedly: "I'll go over first. , let’s call later.”
Wei Lan didn't know how long it would take Xiao Chenfeng to finish, and she didn't want to stay in the messy banquet hall, so she got up and left the banquet hall first, going outside to get some air. The sun had gone down, and the weather outside was not too hot. Compared to After having the air conditioner blowing indoors for a day, the air outside is much more comfortable.
Sitting down on a bench in the garden downstairs of the hotel room department, Weilan took out a small notepad from her bag, opened one of the pages, and used a pen to cross out the names of almost twenty real estate companies on it. , the only thing left is the Yanjing Urban Construction Group controlled by the Xiao Chenfeng family. It seems that this is his only hope.
Wei Lan sighed, put away the notepad, and rubbed the center of her eyebrows with the knuckle of her thumb. After this day, she became more and more aware that finding someone to save Juncheng Real Estate from the fire and water was really difficult.
These days, it is extremely rare for a company to come up with billions of idle funds, and if the billions of funds have been invested for two or three years, the interest itself is astronomical based on the interest rates of real commercial loans, not to mention if this money is invested in real estate. In the field, it is probably not a problem to double the profits in two or three years. However, the net assets of Juncheng Real Estate are now more than one billion, and the profits from three new properties are only over two billion, divided in half. It’s only over a billion when I go out.
And there are many other risks in this. The biggest risk lies in Lanke Group. With Lanke Group blocking it behind the scenes, the cost of saving Juncheng Real Estate will increase a lot again on the basis of 3 billion. After many calculations, Weilan I am vaguely worried that even Xiao Chenfeng and the Urban Construction Group will find it difficult to take action.
Thinking of this, Wei Lan felt nervous. No matter what, Xiao Chenfeng was her last hope. Whether she could save Juncheng Real Estate depended on her dinner with Xiao Chenfeng tonight.
Half an hour later, Wei Lan received a call from Xiao Chenfeng, who first apologized on the phone: "I'm sorry, Wei Lan, for keeping you waiting. I've finished my work here. Why don't you go directly to the hotel catering department to meet you?" Whoever arrives first will wait in the foyer."
"Okay, I'll go over now." Wei Lan stood up and walked towards the hotel's catering department.
A few minutes later, Wei Lan arrived at the hotel's catering department. Xiao Chenfeng was not seen in the luxurious foyer, so she waited there for a while. Xiao Chenfeng never showed up, which made Wei Lan feel a little impatient. She now felt like she was behind the scenes. The entire Juncheng Real Estate was on thin ice, and even a slight breeze would make her nervous.
At this time, the sound of a live piano came from the lobby of the hotel restaurant. The sound of the piano was quite melodious after being mixed with the echoes of the lobby and foyer. With just a few notes, Wei Lan could tell that this piece of music was an adaptation of Enya's. "Caribbean-Blue", it was rare to hear the music that she liked, which made Weilan's irritable mood ease a little.
After the song ended, Xiao Chenfeng finally appeared. He trotted all the way to Wei Lan. He was slightly out of breath and smiled apologetically: "Are you anxious about waiting? I'm really sorry that I was pestered by several reporters to ask some questions. , and I don’t have a chance to call you back.”
Wei Lan temporarily let go of her anxious heart and said, "It's okay. I have nothing to do anyway. It's quite pleasant to listen to piano music here."
Xiao Chenfeng smiled and said: "Then let's go up first. The lobby on the first floor is full of people in the industry and is messy. The private rooms on the second floor are quieter."
Wei Lan nodded: "It's up to you."
Xiao Chenfeng snapped his fingers at the waiter in a white suit next to him, who immediately rushed to him. Xiao Chenfeng said to him: "Notify the people upstairs to prepare the elegant hall for me. I will treat the distinguished guests to dinner tonight."
The young man in a white suit said hurriedly: "Sorry, Mr. Xiao, the private rooms upstairs are all full today."
"Full?" Xiao Chenfeng frowned: "What's going on?"
The young man in the white suit explained: "Our own public relations department has ordered eight, Mr. Wang from Lanke Group has ordered four, and the other four are individual guests. All the guests have already sat down."
Xiao Chenfeng said with an unhappy expression: "What happened? Wang Runqing decided on four? Who approved the ones you decided on for him?"
The young man in the white suit looked embarrassed: "Mr. Xiao, we are usually open for reservations. Besides, our hotel's catering capacity is not very strong..."
This hotel in the city itself is of a more business-like nature, and is not a resort hotel that occupies a huge area in the suburbs or tourist attractions. Therefore, the catering department is not planned to be large and the size is only average. The sixteen private rooms are slightly limited. The organized activities are almost full by then.
Xiao Chenfeng waved his hand: "Ask the hotel manager to coordinate with Wang Runqing and ask him to make a private room for me! Just say it was me who said so and ask him to make room immediately!"
The young man in a white suit asked him tentatively: "Mr. Xiao, is this not good..."
Xiao Chenfeng waved his hand, frowned and said, "I know whether it's good or not, just do as I say!"
At this time, Wei Lan, who had been silent for a long time, said, "Mr. Xiao, why don't we eat in the lobby and don't embarrass them?"
Xiao Chenfeng sighed softly and said to her: "The lobby is full of people from the industry, it's a mess, and we still have serious things to talk about."
As he said that, Xiao Chenfeng's eyes lit up and he blurted out: "You came here in the morning and signed in directly. You haven't checked in yet, right? I've reserved a high-end suite for you. Otherwise, you can just go to the suite and let the chef Just prepare it and bring it up to eat, so that we can talk about things without being disturbed."
Xiao Chenfeng said that he wanted to go to the guest room to eat and talk. Wei Lan instinctively resisted, and at the same time he was also naturally wary. Seeing Wei Lan's hesitant expression, Xiao Chenfeng immediately changed the subject and said, "Then let's go out and look for him. Let’s go to a place. We can discuss the specific matters while eating at the restaurant. You wait for me for a while and I’ll drive.”
Seeing that Xiao Chenfeng gave up the proposal so quickly, Wei Lan instantly let down her guard a lot. She felt that she had something to ask for, and she must not cause trouble to the other person in such a small matter. If she really went out to eat, take it. The whole process of finding a car, finding a place, parking, and eating is quite troublesome. You might as well just eat in the guest room as he suggested before. In fact, eating is irrelevant to me. I just want to get feedback from Xiao Chenfeng as soon as possible. Urban Construction Group Are you willing to help Juncheng Real Estate tide over the difficulties
So, Wei Lan said to Xiao Chenfeng: "Mr. Xiao, please don't bother me. Let's just eat in the room as you said."
