518 CRR vs. University
"By the way, John, our CRR club is about to officially open to the public, when are we going to hold a cocktail party?" Old David suddenly smiled and said to Li Feng at this time.
"Yes, I almost forgot, so our headquarters in the Rockefeller Century Center has been renovated?" Li Feng replied with a look of sudden realization.
"Rockefeller-Century Center?"
Del Roosevelt did not answer after hearing Li Feng's question, but looked at Li Feng and Old David with a wicked smile and whispered, which immediately made the two speechless for a while.
But no, the Rockefeller Center, which was originally good, has now become the Rockefeller-Century Center, from a family to the name of two joint families, and the taste in Old David's heart is not a taste, but there is no way to do it.
As for the CRR clubhouse, it is also the result of the cooperation of the three clubs. The two families have clubs named after their own families, the Roosevelt Club, the Rockefeller Foundation or something, in fact, to put it bluntly, they are all charity clubs of all natures.
As for why it is called CRR, C stands for the initials of the century, and RR represents the initials of the surnames of the two families of Rockefeller and Roosevelt.
The clubhouse was headquartered in the main building of the Rockefeller Century Center, the Strange Building, also known as the General Electric Building, where the headquarters of General Electric is located today. On the top floor of the building, three floors are listed separately, with a total area of more than 3,000 square meters being luxuriously renovated.
……
Similarly, CRR clubs in Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Tokyo, Seoul, Xiangjiang, Modu, and Beijing are all choosing locations. The rest of the places are not clear, but the location of the mainland of China has basically been decided.
The magic capital was chosen in the old buildings and old western-style buildings on the Bund.
That's right, in Li Feng's trip to the magic capital, in addition to investing in Lujiazui, Yang Lou on the Bund is naturally also a place for investment, and now the Bund No. 2, 22, 27, and 33, 4 Bund buildings have been taken over by Li Feng's real estate company in Huaxia.
Among them, No. 2 on the Bund, Li Feng has found his next home, and after the comprehensive renovation, it will become the location of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in the magic capital, and No. 22, when the time comes, it will become the headquarters of the CRR club.
The remaining two buildings, No. 27, will become the headquarters of CSCB Bank in Huaxia, and No. 33 can be rented out or used by its own group.
Li Feng acquired so many courtyard houses and took out a top large courtyard house covering an area of more than 3,000 square meters and belonging to Houhai as the CRR Beijing Club.
Of course, these need to be paid for to use, and the property department of Li Feng's real estate group collects rent, as the so-called fertilizer does not flow into the fields of outsiders, and it is not wrong to make money and use it commercially.
……
"Then the club management is in place?" asked Li Feng angrily.
"Haha... , rest assured, a part of the elite from our two institutes and foundations, plus the people from your Skyrim Real Estate and your private consultant team, a top elite management team has been formed, and the rest can naturally be recruited externally, all of which have been completed and basically trained. ”
Perhaps seeing the embarrassment on the faces of Li Feng and old David, the big man of the Roosevelt family couldn't help but laugh and replied.
Obviously, such a joke, without affecting the friendship, can see characters like Li Feng and Old David deflated, which can make good friends happy for a while, after all, such scenes are rare, and even outsiders will never see them.
"Okay, so do you have a plan for the time, when are you going to officially open to the public?" Li Feng asked with a smile as he shifted the topic to the operation club.
"It was planned for the 22nd, and now we are working on everything and starting to send out invitations. Del replied with a smile again.
"Okay, that's right, there's still about a week to go, I'm done here and I'm going to take a look, but I haven't been to New York for a while. Li Feng responded with a smile.
Just going to New York for a walk, Li Feng thought to himself.
……
"John, I think you'd better move your headquarters to New York, which is the center of the world, isn't it?"
"It's too cold in New York in winter, but the California sun is comfortable. Li Feng joked with a smile.
"California is an earthquake-prone zone, and fires are high in the summer, so New York is still safe!" Delton quipped.
"Uh..."
Hearing the other party's words, Li Feng was speechless, that's right, California is really a high-earthquake zone, and the fires in California every summer are definitely high-incidence periods, really from this point of view, New York is really safer.
"Haha..."
Li Feng was suddenly deflated, which made Del and old David laugh.
"Hi... , John, long time no see!"
Just as Li Feng was chatting with his close partner, a greeting came, interrupting Li Feng's rest and joke with the helmsmen of the two families.
"Wow... , Steven, long time no see!"
Li Feng turned his head to look, but the people who came were black and white, a man and a woman, and they all knew each other, but the one named Steven was acquainted in this life, and the black woman was known in a previous life.
The white man's name is Steven Samp, and he is the current president of the University of Southern California, Li Feng has met with him a few times before, and he has dealt with him a few times, after all, they are all top people in Los Angeles, and it is normal to see them occasionally at parties.
The black woman on the side is the later famous Secretary of State of the US Empire-Rice, of course, today's Rice is not the world-renowned figure in later generations, but Li Feng still recognizes it at a glance, after all, the latter is so famous in the world in the future, when Rice was the Secretary of State in the previous life, it was also popular in China, and there was news of people everywhere on the Internet.
……
"John, I heard that you just finished the SAT and did very well, how about it, why don't you come to USC, you can choose your major. Steven Samp, USC Chancellor, joked with a laugh.
"Steven, you're not right, just let John go to USC in front of me, it's not good, hello John, I'm Condoli Scum Rice, I'm the Provost of Stanford, I welcome you on behalf of Stanford!"
Before Li Feng could reply, he didn't expect Les on the side to interject and quip, which made Li Feng feel surprised.
Although he heard a lot of Rice's news in his previous life, after all, he could see the appearance of this black woman from time to time on the news 30 minutes every day, but Li Feng naturally didn't know much about her life, and only knew that he was the secretary of state of the US imperialists, which was equivalent to the position of foreign minister in China.
Li Feng really didn't expect that Rice at this time was the provost of Stanford University, to put it mildly, this position is not low, and it is second only to the president of the United States Imperial University.
"Hello, Ms. Rice, it's a pleasure to meet you, but I may be about to disappoint you, I also hesitated in a few universities in Los Angeles before, it's not that the rest of the universities are bad, it's mainly that a few universities in Los Angeles are closest to home!" Li Feng shrugged his shoulders and greeted him with a smile.
"Haha... , Rice, you see this can't be helped, John, I don't think you have to hesitate, you still come to USC, choose a university in Los Angeles, naturally choose USC!" Steven Samp responded with a laugh.
"Yes, maybe UCLA doesn't agree!"
“…”
……
After some small talk, Li Feng can be regarded as getting acquainted with a man of the year again.
