The three of them laughed and just entered the lobby of the Peace Hotel, nested in the corner of the lobby, Ning Anmin, who had been abandoned all afternoon, stood up from the lounge sofa in the corner of the lobby with a look of finally seeing his relatives.

This afternoon, Ning Anmin's mood was always painful and happy.

Mandarin Oriental is the only listed five-star hotel chain on Hong Kong Island, even if you don't look at the parent company behind it, and in Southeast Asia, the hotel can still be called luxurious and stylish.

Although the funds for the acquisition of the Peace Hotel are not comparable with hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars in large-scale projects such as electronics, aviation, and petrochemicals, the investment in a single hotel of nearly 500 million yuan was sky-high in the Republic in the 90s.

Due to the nature of the Peace Hotel, Mandarin Oriental did not obtain the property rights of the Peace Hotel, but registered a new China-Hong Kong joint venture with the Shanghai Municipal Government in a one-to-one ratio, and the Shanghai Municipal Government contributed the two buildings of the Peace Hotel for a price of 500 million yuan, and Mandarin Oriental provided the management team, renovation funds, renovation plans and was responsible for the subsequent operation and operation management of the hotel.

Considering the impact of top hotels on the city's image, Shanghai sent a deputy mayor to take charge of negotiations with the Mandarin Oriental.

The deputy mayor's name is Tang Zheng, Tang Wan's eldest brother, and Ning Anmin are acquaintances plus relatives who are not far away.

Speaking of Tang Zheng's career is directly related to someone, Tang Jingtian's attainments in the economic field are much stronger than Ning Jianzhong, and he has studied what someone does in the shopping mall very deeply, and his interest in Liang Yuan himself is even greater.

However, Tang Wan was short-sighted, and felt that Liang Yuan's young man was extremely ambitious, for fear that some messy relationships would be mixed in, ruining the pure feelings between Liang Yuan and Ning Wanjia's childhood sweetheart, and she had always hidden Liang Yuan well.

Tang Wan planned to wait for Liang Yuan to grow up a little more, and her temperament was calmer before entering that intricate circle, so even Tang Wan on the twin grandfather's side didn't take the initiative to ask Liang Yuan to move around, let alone grandpa.

Although she has never seen Liang Yuan herself, Tang Wan does not hide many things from the old man in the family, after all, Tang Jingtian is much more powerful than Ning Jianzhong in the economic field, and his local relationship is also thicker than Ning Jianzhong.

Back then, Liang Yuan acquired Jardine Matheson on Hong Kong Island, and the Ji family robbed halfway, and the old man Tang, who had studied Liang Yuan very deeply, told Tang Wan not to make a move, calm down, and watch the follow-up, but the result was not as Tang Jingtian expected, someone not only turned the tables directly from the sidelines, but also deducted a black pot with no variegated colors for Ji Erye.

After the National People's Congress last year, the 49-year-old Tang Zheng was directly transferred from Beijing to Shanghai to serve as vice mayor.

Then, in the new year, Pudong New Area was promoted to a state-level development zone, and Yuanjia dispatched most of the members of the conference to Shanghai.

Ning Anmin was a little confused when he was directly taken by Song Xiaowei to attend business talks with the Shanghai city government in the afternoon.

At Ning Anmin's level, it would take twenty years to be qualified to be a major participant in meetings at this level.

Because of Tang Wan, Tang Zheng knows far more about Yuanjia than Ning Anmin, although Tang Zheng doesn't know the existence of the name Yuanjia, but the close relationship between Tang Wan and Shangfei and Jardine Tang Zheng sees it in his eyes.

Tang Zheng graduated from the Republic of China University of Geosciences with a major in coal exploration, and has been working in the Ministry of Coal Industry after graduation.

After more than a year of running-in, Tang Zheng adapted well in the Ministry of Energy, and Tang Zheng, who thought that he had been in the energy field all his life, was suddenly told by his own Lao Tzu not to wait for the resumption of the Ministry of Coal Industry in the ministry, and hurry up to the place.

Tang Zheng's political ambitions are not big, and he feels that he has worked hard in politics all his life, and he will be content to retire in the name of a member of the Central Committee like his own old man when he is old.

Tang Zheng, who is familiar with the officialdom of the republic, naturally understands the meaning behind going to the local government, if the official career has been circling in a single field and has not been to the local office, it is absolutely impossible to have the opportunity to wait and see the more than ten positions in the Politburo.

Tang Zheng, who was puzzled, naturally wanted to get to the bottom of it, but was blocked back by Tang Jingtian's few words, Lao Tzu will never pit his son, this is certain, the next place will help you go higher in your career, this is also certain, if you want to know more, ask your sister.

Tang Zheng didn't get any useful information from Lao Tzu, who didn't eat oil and salt at home, so he had to ask Tang Wan head-on.

Looking at the way the two girls get along with Ning Anmin and Ning Anran, you can know what Tang Wan's status was at home as an old girl.

Unlike Tang Wan's occasional stinginess in her husband's house, Tang Jing was born with five sons and survived four, and only got such a girl when he was old, so he naturally held it in the palm of his hand, and his brothers also loved this only young sister very much.

In the early years, the brothers of the Tang family liked Ning Lei to haunt the battlefield and dangerous places, and they didn't have a lot of complaints about their careers, and felt that their little sister had lost money.

However, after history turned a corner, Ning Lei soared into the sky, and Tang Wan came to the fore from behind the scenes of her husband and daughter, and the whispers in the hearts of the brothers of the Tang family faded.

However, the brothers of the Tang family are all serving in the direction of government affairs, and they are not as good as those of the Ning family in the military circles, and they are not sensitive to the changes brought about by Yuanjia.

From the beginning of Tang Wan's-for-tat confrontation with the Ji family on the issue of Jardine, Tang Zheng had more and more questions in his heart, Tang Zheng couldn't figure out when his sister had overseas relations in South Africa, and helped others bury the Lingnan Ji family directly.

Tang Zheng, who was full of questions, found a day to go to United Airlines to find Tang Wan, and after some exchanges, Tang Zheng got from Tang Wan that being a sister would never pit the eldest brother, and going to Shanghai to serve would definitely help his career, but other doubts were not only not solved, but became more and more.

Tang Zheng knew from Tang Wan's tone that he didn't hide much that there was a very important thing happening, his own Lao Tzu and his sister only knew about it, but they just didn't tell themselves.

I can't bear to pull that dog over to me.

No matter what kind of inner drama Tang Zheng experienced, when the National People's Congress was held last year, he still chose to be transferred to the local government.

In the 90s, the work of attracting investment was not a sought-after job, and in the future, if a county did not have seven or eight deputy county magistrates in charge of investment promotion, they were embarrassed to go out and greet people.

With doubts in his heart, Tang Zheng paid extra attention to economic factors after taking office, especially Shangfei and Jardine, who had an inexplicable relationship with his sister.

Then, Tang Zheng slowly discovered a lot of interesting things, such as COMAC's announcement that the CM50 business jet based on CM100 regional airliner technology will set up a R&D center and the first production line in China, and Jardine Matheson announced the relaunch of the Great Jardine Plan, and went north to the mainland market of the Republic, and the Mandarin Oriental Hotel project is the vanguard to take the lead.

Then, the executives of well-known enterprises such as Gangji Power Collector, COMAC, Shangri-La, Inspur, and Jardine Matheson came to Shanghai collectively, and if Tang Zheng still couldn't figure out the purpose of his father and sister letting him come to Shanghai, he wouldn't mix up in officialdom in the future.

Although he couldn't figure out how his father and sister got in touch with these companies, Tang Zheng thoroughly understood that there was indeed an important event that he didn't know about in the past few years, and the profound impact of this incident had begun to slowly spread outward.

Therefore, when Tang Zheng saw Ning Anmin, who appeared at the negotiation site with Song Xiaowei, he strengthened this view.

No one in the next generation of the Ning family is interested in joining the army, and Ning Anmin's appearance here just right means that Ning Lei must also know about the major event that Tang Zheng himself guessed, and to some extent it also represents the participation of the military of the Republic, otherwise how could there be no news revealed to the society at all.

In the afternoon, after the formal business negotiations, Tang Zheng found an opportunity to talk with Ning Anmin, and knocked several times, Tang Zheng found that Ning Anmin didn't know as much as he did, the more difficult it was to find the truth, the more interesting Tang Zheng felt that things were interesting, and he could get on the side of high-ranking officials, and he didn't even know anything about the aftermath of a major event that would bring enough benefits to him, which was too unbelievable.

However, Ning Anmin was almost stunned by what happened in the afternoon, and Tang Zheng's side knock also made Ning Anmin keenly aware that something must have happened that was the main factor that led him to come to Shanghai this time, the old men of the Tang and Ning families are all insiders, and this incident not only affected him, but a person of Tang Zheng's level actually came to Shanghai half a year ago.

Thinking of all kinds of looming coincidences, all kinds of unbelievable thoughts swirled in Ning Anmin's head, and people were about to go crazy.

Due to the habits of the early years, Liang Yuan and the two girls have always lived in a large suite together when they go out, Song Xiaowei knows the habits of the three in Hong Kong, and naturally refers to the old practice of the three of them in the penthouse suite of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel when arranging the room, and prepared the largest suite room of the Peace Hotel for the three of them.

Ning Anmin followed the three of them back to the room, and was surprised to find that when a certain person lived under the same roof with his two younger sisters, his jaw was about to fall.

"Jia~Jia~, do you live together? does Auntie know that you live together?"

Caught up with Liang Yuan to read the documents in his room, Ning Anmin didn't care about the doubts in his heart, pulled Ning Wanjia over, and stammered first to ask about the shocking scene he had just seen.

"Of course Mom knows, the three of us grew up together and lived together since we were children, brother, you don't know, why did you suddenly make a fuss. ”

Ning Wanjia glanced at Ning Anmin very puzzled.

"I~~~~!!"

Sister, you are all beautiful girls who are about to become adults, is it really okay to live with a passer-by who is about to become an adult, Ning Anmin was so excited that he couldn't speak.

Ning Anmin was excited for a while, and felt that with Tang Wan's personality, how could he ignore such a serious problem, could it be that there was something he didn't know, and many things encountered in this day were slowly subverting Ning Anmin's worldview, making Ning Anmin doubt his judgment.

After a while, Ning Anmin decided to put aside this matter that he couldn't control, trying to get answers to his questions from his two younger sisters.

The two girls gave their eldest brother face, and sat quietly on the sofa listening to Ning Anmin talk about the whole afternoon's itinerary, as well as the tentative conversation with Tang Zheng.

"Jiajia, Feifei, in good conscience, how does the eldest brother treat you two?"

"That's good. ”

"You two must know what Big Brother doesn't know, right?"

The two girls thought about it, nodded in unison, and admitted the account.

"Then can you tell the eldest brother what this matter is, I guess that the uncle of the Tang family may have been affected by this incident and came to Shanghai. ”

"The eldest brother guessed right, the uncle of the Tang family came to Shanghai under the influence of this incident, but ~~~. ”

Looking at Ning Anmin's pitiful eyes, Ning Wanjia decided to give a small hint.

"Compared with the uncle of the Tang family, in fact, the eldest brother is very close to the real answer. ”

The girl didn't say what it was after, but gave a correct hint.

The real answer lies in the other room of the suite.

However, Ning Wanfei looked at Ning Anmin's still confused eyes and smiled heartlessly.

"Big brother, in fact, it's for your own good not to tell you, now you just feel like you're going crazy with questions, if you tell you the real answer, big brother, you should doubt life. ”

Ning Anmin was dismissive when he heard his sister say this at first, ability, education, and family background were put in the pile of peers, even if Ning Anmin didn't think he was the top one, he thought he was the top one, according to his sister, he doubted life unless his peers came out of a high-ranking official, which was obviously impossible.

However, Ning Anmin suddenly thought of the temptation in Tang Zheng's words in the afternoon, and the disappointed look that could not be concealed when he found out that he didn't know anything, Ning Anmin was a little shaken in his judgment, Tang Zheng was a real high-ranking official, even if it was a deputy.

Ning Anmin was struggling, the phone in the room rang, Ning Wanfei was close to the phone, and directly picked up the phone.

"It's Mr. Su. ”

"Well, I'm looking at European documents. ”

"Okay, he'll be over in a moment, the conference room on the top floor, right? ”

"Yes, Jiajia and I both went up. ”

Seeing Ning Wanfei put down the phone, Ning Anmin asked casually: "Feifei, who." ”

"Guess~~"

Ning Wanfei looked at Ning Anmin with a smile.

"The conference room on the top floor and the European documents, it sounds like Fei Fei is very powerful. ”

"Brother, guess slowly, anyway, you will know sooner or later, and slowly understanding it will help your health. ”

"Jiajia, let's pack up the information, Mr. Su and they are all on the top floor, today's topic is European affairs. ”

"Sister Jiajia, take pity on poor brother. ”

"Fei Fei has said everything that should be said, brother, it's better to watch slowly and understand slowly. ”

Ning Anmin watched the two girls take out a stack of documents from their backpacks, picked up the phone and pulled out a number to say Uncle Weng, and then said a string of letters and numbers mixed code, and after a while, Weng Chengji walked in with a pure black folder.

"Brother, it's time for you to go back to your room. ”

Ning Wanjia began to drive people away.

When Ning Anmin saw Weng Chengji come in, he knew that his sister was really not joking, and his sister must have been involved in a major event that he didn't know about.

Although he was curious to die or live, Ning Anmin still walked back to the room, but the moment he went out, Ning Anmin suddenly turned his head and asked Ning Wanjia in his heart.

"Jiajia, the Mr. Su that Fei Fei just mentioned can't be Su Liangyu, the president of Gangji Power Collector, who lives in a hotel with us, right?"

Ning Wanjia gave Ning Anmin a sweet smile, and then ruthlessly kicked Ning Anmin out, and finally didn't give Ning Anmin a definite answer.

Recently, through the consultation of the members of the plenary meeting, Yuanjia has decided in principle to cooperate with the French SNACMA to develop a medium-thrust large-duct turbojet engine suitable for regional airliners and narrow-body trunk airliners on the basis of the M88 core engine.

In this way, an interesting situation has emerged in the power selection of the CMB100 regional airliner, with BMW cooperating with Rolls-Royce of the United Kingdom to produce the RB700 series of medium-thrust large-ducted turbofans, and Brilliance Power of the Republic and Snapma of France cooperating to produce the M321 series of medium-thrust large-bypass turbofans.

COMAC has reached an agreement with MBB that the CMB100 regional airliner will not choose GE's products for installation, taking into account practical factors such as employment in various countries, unless there are major defects in a product, the installed ratio of RB700 and M321 in the European market is not more than 1 to 0.8, except for the European market, there will be no interference and influence on the installation process of customers choosing RB700 series or M321 series.

In other words, once the CM series regional airliner is on fire, the Americans will get out of the way in the choice of aero engine power, Britain and Germany will confront China and France in the European market, and everyone in the other global markets will rely on their own abilities.

Of course, this tacit agreement, which is contrary to free competition, has also brought great benefits to CMB Aerospace.

British Airways, Air France, Lufthansa, Republic United Airlines have recently had a strong interest in the CM100 and CM200 airliners that are about to be completely finalized, and the expected total orders for CM100 and CM200 have rapidly accumulated from a dozen to more than 100 aircraft.

In the recent topics of Yuanjia executives, the opening base in Shanghai is only a less core topic, and the core topic in the past two days is a technical document provided by Li Yuanling as much as 500 pages, which not only lists the aero-engine technology that SNAKMA currently has the aero engine technology that Brilliance urgently needs, but also makes a detailed budget for the research and development funds of the new aviation development.

Even if the M321 medium-thrust turbofan has the participation of R&D personnel of the Republic of China and has the potential advantage of high quality and low price, the personnel cost only accounts for 30-40% in the process of aero engine research and development, and it is good to save 15% in the whole project.

Even with the participation of the Republic with its own cost-reducing attributes, the R&D budget of US$1.2 billion in M321 has become the focus of recent discussions among members of the Yuanjia Conference, and it is not a joke for Yuanjia to raise US$600 million in R&D expenses.
