Chapter 57: Meeting
At seven o'clock in the evening, it was not completely dark.
A private club on the outskirts of Zhonghai City, Ye Ning stood at the gate calmly and waited, if you look carefully, you will find that there is still a trace of joy in his eyes, hiding in the suite of the Qiaoya Hotel in the afternoon, after nearly six hours of hard work, he has completed the second stage of the first recuperation, the first seal in his body has been torn apart, and his strength realm has recovered to the peak of the acquired period of Xiaocheng, so, he has full certainty, and after another recuperation to tear open the entire seal, there will be no suspense to go to a small level, and there is even hope to touch the Great Perfection, which is similar to the most optimistic estimate when he completed the first stage of recuperation。
However, although the medicinal materials for the next recuperation were ready, before that, he had to spend some time to stabilize his realm, almost ten days later.
A silver Mercedes-Benz drove up, stopped in an empty parking space in front of the clubhouse, opened the driver's door, and got down a beautiful woman with an outstanding demeanor... Tonight's autumn Ruoyu's all-black professional dress from top to bottom sets off her skin that deceives the frost and snow, and her green hair is tied into a bunch and falls behind her head, and her face is slightly powdered, even with a magnifying glass, it is difficult to find the slightest flaw, with that cold and dignified temperament, her whole person releases an indescribable extraordinary charm, which is so beautiful that it makes people feel thrilling.
"Mr. Qiu, if you didn't know that tonight was a business meeting, I would have doubted that you were here to date a man you liked. Ye Ning hurried to catch up, and very consciously took the briefcase in Qiu Ruoyu's hand, his eyes swept over the latter a few times, and his eyes showed a touch of surprise and admiration.
"I don't like to make jokes. Qiu Ruoyu glanced at him coldly, and almost indifferently shook off a sentence, and walked straight into the clubhouse.
Ye Ning laughed dryly and silently followed behind the woman.
The venue of the tripartite meeting is set in the back garden of the clubhouse, the outdoor air is exceptionally fresh in autumn, the temperature of about 20 degrees is just right, and a circle of lights around it presents the beautiful scenery in the garden like day, which is more quiet and comfortable at night.
Under the guidance of a waiter, Qiu Ruoyu and the two walked into the garden through the glass curtain door, only to see a European-style round table placed in the center of the lawn, stacked with some fruit plates and drinks, etc., next to the round table, in addition to Xiao Jianhao, who was holding a glass of red wine and tasting a light sip, there was a beautiful woman in a red skirt two positions away from him, less than thirty years old, with a mature and charming melon seed face, a glance and a smile, infinite style, this woman is the daughter of Ge Chengsong, the head of the Ge family, Ge Youran.
Qiu Ruoyu frowned slightly, tonight's meeting was jointly initiated by Xiao and Ge, she came in person as the president of Huayuan, and put on a sufficiently important attitude, but Xiao and Ge sent two juniors, is this ignorant of the rules, or is it deliberately big?
In business meetings, the principle of reciprocity is fundamental, it has nothing to do with age, it depends on status, whether it is Xiao Jianhao or Ge Youran, they are not qualified to represent the two parties in charge.
"If it rains, we'll be waiting for you for almost half an hour. Xiao Jianhao got up slowly, with a warm smile on his face, and waved at Qiu Ruoyu with a gentlemanly demeanor, looking at the latter's eyes, a trace of coveting was hidden deeply, as for Ye Ning, he ignored it like air.
But Ge Youran was just the opposite of him, just symbolically greeted Qiu Ruoyu, and then looked at Ye Ning with interest, on the pretty face of Yan Xi, a pair of narrow water-cutting eyes were bent into two crescents, and the sandalwood mouth was lightly opened, and a soft and delicate voice came out: "This handsome guy should be Ye Shao." ”
Ye Ning glanced at the other party's charming and natural cheeks, and vaguely swept the plump figure under the tight skirt, and his heart couldn't help but ripple in the microwave, if Qiu Ruoyu is compared to a proud snow lotus, then Ge Youran is like a peony with all kinds of charms in the world, the two women have completely different temperaments, but they also have a fatal attraction to men.
"My name is Ye Ning, and I don't dare to call Ye Shao. ”
"It turned out to be Ye Gongzi, sit. Ge Youran sent out an invitation with a smile, and a "Ye Gongzi" made Ye Ning not embarrassed, and after a little hesitation, he sat down as he said, just between Qiu Ruoyu and Ge Youran.
After taking a seat, Ye Ning made a little observation and found that there was no fifth seat prepared for this round table, that is to say, he or Fang Lan would accompany Qiu Ruoyu to come, and the other party's arrangement was expected.
"Mr. Xiao, Youran, tonight's meeting, you two sent you as plenipotentiary representatives?" Before greetings, Qiu Ruoyu asked straight to the point, the different names of the two were not for individuals, but on behalf of her slightly different attitudes towards Xiao and Ge.
Xiao Jianhao nodded and said: "Tonight, my father and Uncle Ge asked Uncle Lin to talk about something together, so let me and Youran come forward on our behalf, we are all about the same age, and there will be less generation gap in communication." ”
Ge Youran smiled and nodded, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.
When Qiu Ruoyu heard this, her eyes narrowed, she knew that there would be no good meeting tonight, and she probably guessed the thoughts of the Xiao and Ge families, but she never expected that her father would also be involved, it seems that no matter how clearly she expressed her position, she just couldn't make some people die.
"Then let's get started. Qiu Ruoyu took a sip of soda and said lightly.
Regarding Qiu Ruoyu's style of not liking mud and water, Xiao Jianhao and Ge Youran should have understood it a long time ago, and they didn't show much surprise, and after exchanging glances with each other, they saw Xiao Jianhao take out a copy of information and spread it on the table, and said according to the book: " At this time last year, 70 percent of the retail share of the Chinese herbal medicine industry in Zhonghai City was occupied by Xiao and Ge, when Huayuan had only been in the industry for more than four months, at most no more than 5 percent of the share, and a year later, Xiao and Ge's share fell to 55 percent, while Huayuan rose to about 25 percent, our three parties are already equal, if the current situation continues, another year, no, maybe it will only take half a year, and after Huayuan is listed, the market share will soar to more than 40 percent, more than Xiao and Ge combined...”
After a detailed analysis of the past, present, and future, the smile on Xiao Jianhao's face has turned into a dignified color, and Ge Youran is also a moving smile that has converged, and there is a touch of deep worry between his eyebrows.
Qiu Ruoyu glanced at the two expressionlessly, was slightly silent, and did not refute, but said: "I don't want to express my opinion on the future development of the market, I can only say that at the moment, if you two have any ideas, or suggestions, you might as well spread it out and say, in business, you can cooperate for a win-win situation, and no one will be willing to compete with each other." ”
