Reborn Aristocrat: Return of the Vicious Heiress

Chapter 1100: Banquet for directors

Views:

Just when Wen Xinya was using these three days to actively prepare to stop the entertainment city project, Wen Xinya received a call from Secretary Cao.

Wen Xinya hurried to the "Golden Wind and Jade Dew Pavilion".

"Jinfeng Yulu Pavilion" is also one of the most famous clubs in Beijing. Jiuchongtian is a symbol of status, Jiayuan Club is a paradise for rich people, and Jinfeng Yulu Pavilion is a famous elegant pavilion in Beijing, with jade harps, ink-stained books, tea and wine, romance, and ancient style.

It is a good place for the upper class, those who like to be pretentious and artful.

Wen Xinya entered the lobby of the "Golden Wind and Jade Dew Pavilion", and Secretary Cao hurriedly came to greet her: "Wen Haowen used the excuse of celebrating Ning Shuqian's joining the board of directors to host a banquet for the directors. I just got the news not long ago."

Wen Xinya pursed her lips slightly. She guessed that at the previous board meeting, Secretary Cao took the lead in delaying the project start-up funds for the entertainment city. Ning Shuqian agreed on the spot and took the initiative to give everyone three days in order not to offend the directors on the board.

But Ning Shuqian is not a fool. She naturally knows that the longer the start-up funds for the entertainment city project are delayed, the more likely it is that complications will arise. Naturally, she will not sit idly by, so she will definitely take action in private.

The banquet held now for all the directors is under the pretext of celebrating Ning Shuqian's joining the board of directors, but in reality it is to win over all the directors, show goodwill to all the directors, and get the start-up capital for the entertainment city as soon as possible.

Although it is said that there is a three-day period for consideration, it is not necessary to wait for three days before coming to a conclusion.

This was Ning Shuqian's idea. She gave face to the directors at the board meeting and also did enough work in private. The directors on the board were not fools. The funds had to be allocated sooner or later anyway, so it didn't matter whether it was delayed or not. Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian gave them enough face, so why wouldn't they give them face

What a good calculation.

Wen Xinya asked calmly, "How many directors are attending the dinner?"

It's impossible for everyone to buy into Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian's ideas. She wanted to see how many directors Wen Haowen could easily win over.

Secretary Cao whispered, "There are 34 directors on the board of directors, and 26 of them will attend the dinner. I have sorted out the list."

As soon as Secretary Cao received the news, he checked the list.

Wen Xinya didn't say anything.

In order to create an ancient charm, the "Golden Wind and Jade Dew Pavilion" adopts a nine-turn corridor, which is both elegant and profound. Running water is introduced into the yard to make a pond, in which several water lilies are planted. The green lotus leaves are attached to the water surface, which is indescribably elegant. Longevity bamboo is also planted not far away. August is the brilliant time for chrysanthemums, and the clusters of brilliantly blooming chrysanthemum bonsai bring him a bit of leisure.

The Jinfeng Yulu Pavilion lives up to its elegant name.

Secretary Cao added, "As far as I know, Wen Haowen ordered ten boxes of 1988 Lafite at the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Pavilion."

Ten boxes of Lafite! It is impossible to drink them at a banquet

Wen Xinya sneered, "Wen Haowen is indeed generous."

Lafite is one of the five major wineries from the Bordeaux region of France. The best Lafite red wine is 1982, followed by 1985 and 1988. Although the taste of 1988 Lafite is not as good as that of 1982, nor as exquisite as that of 1985, it is quite expensive, and a bottle of red wine costs forty to fifty thousand yuan.

These directors on the board of directors, mere directors, Wen Haowen would naturally not spend money to bribe them. After all, these directors are basically the spokespersons for the shareholders. If he is not careful, he will end up in a bad position among the shareholders.

Moreover, these directors may not be bribed with money. After all, they have been able to stand out from the huge Wen's Group and sit on the board of directors. Everyone values their reputation and their future.

However, sending red wine was just right. First of all, the price of these red wines was very expensive, which showed that Wen Haowen valued them. Secondly, it was just a bottle of red wine. Who doesn't have one or two bottles of good red wine at home? It couldn't be considered a bribe, and the directors didn't have to worry about having a bad reputation. Of course, sending red wine was also a very elegant thing, and it was quite face-saving in terms of social relationships.

Secretary Cao asked: "The dinner has just begun, Miss, you..."

Wen Xinya shook her head and said, "I'm not a director on the board of directors. If I go in, it won't be legitimate, and I'll be known as someone who doesn't speak my mind."

Secretary Cao frowned slightly: "Then let them play tricks behind your back?"

He thought that the eldest lady hurried to the Golden "Feng Yulu Pavilion" specifically to stop Wen Haowen. After all, the current situation was very unfavorable to them. Once the start-up funds for the entertainment project were obtained by Wen Haowen, the Wen Group might never be able to extricate itself.

Now that one of the three days has passed, they only have two days to find a way to stop the entertainment city project, but he knows very well that two days is already very tight. If Ning Shuqian and Wen Haowen do this, they may not even have two days.

Wen Xinya did not answer, but asked: "I asked you to compile a detailed data on the internal operations of Wen's Group and the market sales quota in the past three months. How is your compilation going?"

She had no way to stop Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian from doing this. It was normal for a company department to have a dinner together when a new employee joined. It was also reasonable for Wen Haowen to use the occasion of celebrating Ning Shuqian's joining the board of directors to host a banquet for all the directors. There was no need to say anything else. As long as the directors received the gifts, they would naturally understand Wen Haowen's deep meaning and naturally make this matter come to fruition.

What can she do if she steps forward

Revealed on the spot that Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian had other intentions

She was not that stupid, unless she wanted to be bitten back by Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian, unless she wanted to offend all the directors on the board.

After Secretary Cao calmed down, he realized that he had been a little reckless: "It's almost done, but we still need to check it carefully."

Looking at the girl in front of him with her indifferent and calm face, Secretary Cao couldn't help feeling ashamed. He was not as calm as a girl. He guessed that the young lady already had a way to deal with the situation in her mind.

Wen Xinya looked at Secretary Cao's gradually calming expression and nodded secretly: "No matter what Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian do, you are only responsible for keeping an eye on them and completing the information I asked you to do as soon as possible. As for the rest, I have my own ideas."

She could understand Secretary Cao's anxiety. Being in the middle of the situation, watching Wen Haowen and Ning Shuqian manipulate the board of directors, while she did not take any other countermeasures, how could he not be worried.

"Miss, please rest assured." Secretary Cao nodded. He still had many questions in his mind and didn't know whether he should say them.
