Chapter 0630: The Peninsula Hotel

Gangjiang, Queen's Road, Gangjiang Pearl HSBC Building.

The Chicago School was responsible for the design of the headquarters building, which was renovated and rebuilt in '33 and half of which was still not in use.

With a total height of 70 meters and a total of 13 floors, it is the largest building in the Far East and the first building in Gangjiang to be equipped with central air conditioning.

When Elena arrived at the headquarters, it was already afternoon, and the chairman and president were in her office at the same time.

"What, can't you wait to get the news now?" Elena sneered at the sight of the two of them.

"Elena and Sassoon are also important members of HSBC for our common good. Chairman Chomli said kindly, not at all affected by her sarcasm.

Hearing what the other party said, Elena couldn't refute it, but she didn't want them to feel better, so she directly replaced her answer with silence, "Let them hurry for a while." ’

A little bad taste can't cause any trouble, but it can make her happy, and who would let these two bad old men do bad to her man!

When HSBC was first founded, it absorbed a lot of capital and formed a powerful force that allowed it to grow rapidly.

But this also hinders the development and growth of the company, and there are too many different voices in a company, which will consume a lot of energy and time on internal consumption.

After all, with the development and growth of the company, representatives from different capital interests also have their own different demands and ambitions, and conflicts are inevitable.

Therefore, later, Baoshun Foreign Company, headed by British capital, joined forces with Ferica Foreign Company and Sassoon Foreign Company to squeeze out members who were not conducive to development.

The reorganization of HSBC from a committee to a board of directors has allowed it to grow to where it is today.

As British capital grows, Sassoon's voice within the bank is also weakening, especially after Sassoon's British branch intervened, and their life has become more and more difficult.

It's not that they are all called Sassoon, with the same bloodline, they will love each other, and the one who hates the Far Eastern Sassoon the most in HSBC happens to be this 'distant blood relative'. ’

"Elena, we want to know his attitude. In the end, it was President Lehmann who couldn't help it and took the initiative to ask again.

"What other attitude, his exact words were... Can it be solved?" Elena leaned casually on the back of her leather chair, her beautiful legs stacked on top of each other in a particularly charming way.

"What do you want to do?" is the subtext of the phrase, which both of them understand.

If Elena can't do it, then he will do it himself, HSBC wants profit, not enemies.

Especially after seeing the strong financial strength of Chase and Wells Fargo, this time sniping at Japanese bonds, Wells Fargo easily mobilized about 230 million to 300 million US dollars.

HSBC's market capitalization is not low, and it can be said that no one in the Far East dares to oppose them except Jardine Matheson.

But to get them to mobilize funds, not to mention 300 million, it will take several months to prepare for 200 million, and cash and market value are always two concepts.

There is also the acquisition frenzy that is being set off in Japan, and Chase is like a hungry wolf gnawing at every profit it can get, and its black-handed operation makes people see its cold side.

The misjudgment of the strength of the 'enemy' made these two bigwigs who were calling for wind and rain in the Far East very uncomfortable.

If they had realized the capital in the hands of Lee Holdings, they would not have recklessly wanted to make some small gains.

"The announcement in the newspaper apologized because HSBC had misunderstood the terms and conditions of Wells Fargo, and after the statement, he took the initiative to help Wells Fargo attract customers, and I believe he will be satisfied. ”

......

Li Zitao didn't know what the chairman and president of HSBC thought, and if he knew, he would definitely jump up and spit in each other's faces.

Small cheap, the annual profit is more than 10 million, and the future business at the level of 10 billion, you say it is a small cheap, you can send me a few more to see this kind of small cheapness.

At this time, he was talking to Lin Shiyin about the city of Gangjiang, and by the way, he was waiting for the big-bellied and standard British knight next to him to take the initiative to speak.

"Your Excellency, Marquis, I wonder what you think of The Peninsula?" said Sir Eli as the two paused to talk, looking out the window.

"The ingenious classical carving, accurate to the admirable scale, is full of ritual everywhere, so that the guests spontaneously respect and yearn for it. ”

Li Zitao's high praise made Eli overjoyed, and with irrepressible pride, "Your Excellency the Marquis also has research on Western art? In order to build this hotel, I specially hired three master carvers from Europe and spent 260,000 pounds. ”

"That's why we have the current praise, it's a good deal, isn't it?" Li Zitao said with a smile.

"Yes, haha......" Sir Eli smirked, and after a moment he changed his words, "what does the Marquis think, let the peninsula appear in New York?"

"Good idea, be sure to tell me when it's built, I'll go and patronize it. Li Zitao said naturally, as if the other party's words were just to invite him to enjoy the light.

"It must be a grand occasion, but the land in New York is very tight, and the peninsula has not found a suitable land, I wonder if the Marquis can help?"

"What do you fancy about the place?" Li Zitao only hates that he doesn't have enough knowledge in his head, does the Peninsula have a hotel in New York?

"Corner of Fifth Avenue and 55th Street, Manhattan, Gotham Hotel. Speaking of his aim, Sir Ellie's eyes became combative.

The first time he saw the Beaux-Arts architecture of the Gotham Hotel, the stone carvings at the entrance, the bronze ornaments, and the two large Doric stone pillars that stood out, he decided that it was what the peninsula should be.

"Gotham Hotel?" Li Zitao felt a little embarrassed in his heart, he had never heard of this name, let alone its appearance.

However, Li Zitao has a general impression of this address, the core area of Midtown Manhattan is not far from Rockefeller Center.

"I can match the Jazz if I need to. Li Zitao will not object to this kind of effort.

The afternoon tea on the peninsula disappointed him a little, but its service still left a deep impression on Li Zitao.

In particular, the wine-green Rolls-Royce Ghost 2 car at the door, and the doorman service that makes people feel happy.

If there is one more family in New York, Li Zitao can also go to more places, and take his little lover to pop, it must feel very good.

Li Zitao is not afraid of competition, there is a choice of comparison, although he has never been a professional designer, and he has also done a lot of hotel styling on the computer.

If you can't get the idea of being ahead of the century, you can't do it, and if you invite all those famous designers, he doesn't believe that it can't compare with other hotels in terms of hardware.

In addition, the hotel handed over to Lily is two different concepts from the other party, and there will be more inclined to create a comfortable and family-like serviced apartment.

Warm, comfortable, relaxed and pleasant, and can also experience the feeling of home outside, this alone divides the two sides to serve different customer groups.

"I've spoken to each other personally and there are no problems with the deal, just a little bit of trouble in terms of clothing. Sir Ellie put his finger to the tip of his fingernails, emphasizing how 'small' the so-called trouble was. ’
