Chapter 308

Compared with the great rivers of other countries, although the Thames is not very long, especially the section of the river that flows through London is not very wide, but everywhere it flows, it is the essence of British culture, and it can also be said that the Thames fed the splendid English civilization.

Most of London's major buildings are located on both banks of the River Thames.

Whether you're learning about the UK's cultural heritage or navigating the UK's modern and contemporary architecture, you'll have to walk along the banks of the River Thames with patience.

Although Chen Li has checked a lot of information in China, he has no deeper feeling than a field tour.

Flying from China to London, it takes eight hours of jet lag, Zhou Bin and Zhao Yang are inevitably sleepy, but Chen Li is full of energy and walked along the Thames River for more than three hours with great interest, all of which are full of interest, and finally he was dragged by Zhou Bin before returning to the hotel.

Back at the hotel, Tang Huaqing and Yan Qiwei came over to report on the liaison with the Difei Company, because the vice president of the Difei Company, who had agreed to meet in person, was temporarily on a business trip and would not be able to return to London until the day after tomorrow; the Difei Company could send at most one deputy director of the design department to meet with them tomorrow morning.

In order to express their sincerity, Chen Li flew to London in person, and Difei Company was still so sluggish about this meeting, Yan Qiwei, who was mainly responsible for contacting Difei, was quite embarrassed, Tang Huaqing was also full of annoyance, and suggested that for tomorrow's meeting, Yan Qiwei could come forward to contact, after all, there was nothing to talk about.

Chen Li sat in the living room and said to them with a smile: "It's okay to postpone the meeting for two days, and postpone the return trip for another two days." I've been reading the materials of Difei Company for the past few days, studying their architectural design style, and I haven't felt it deeply, but I just walked around the Thames, and I have some feelings. The architectural design style of the Diffie company, and even the deepest cultural heritage, is rooted in the River Thames - you can put down tomorrow's meeting, and walk around London for two days, even if you can't meet each other, you will find that this trip is worth it. ”

To tell the truth, Tang Huaqing and Yan Qiwei were also afraid that Chen Li would lose his temper after being neglected, after all, the country was in a hurry to wait for the new design plan, Chen Li pushed off the heavy affairs, ran to London and was directly hung here, which person with a net worth of billions was unacceptable, and since Chen Li had such a mentality, they naturally would not say anything.

In the next two days, Chen Li didn't mention the neglect of meeting with Difei Company, and enjoyed visiting the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, West Temple Church, Thousand Hip Wheels, Tower Bridge, Tower Tower Tower and other buildings along the Thames River, Zheng Bingyang and Shen Tong's homework was not heavy, so they stayed in the Buckingham Gate No. 51 Hotel, accompanied Chen Li and them to play, and it was also convenient to act as a translator the day after tomorrow and go to Difei Design Company together.

Not to mention Chen Li, Zhou Bin and Yan Qiwei, who graduated from the Tongji Department of Architectural Engineering, Tang Huaqing is also a veteran college student of the Department of Architectural Engineering of Zhongyuan University.

Although the staff of the Difei company contacted by Yan Qiwei are proficient in Chinese, Chen Li must also have someone proficient in English present during the negotiation, so as to more accurately capture and judge the other party's reaction.

…………

…………

Difei Design Company is located in Russell Square on New Oxford Street in North London, and when he got off the bus, Chen Li found that the famous British Museum is located in the southwest corner of Russell Square.

Shen Tong and Zheng Bingyang led Chen Li and them to the Afe College of the University of London, where an independent building sits on the shaded path on the north side of the Afe College.

Two 100-year-old banyan trees have been pruned to resemble giant bonsai clusters around the chic building, opposite the football field of Yafei College, which has a taste of paradise in the downtown area.

Walking up the bluestone steps, Chen Li knew that this building was at least a hundred years old in the UK, and many of the decoration elements were very modern, but they could not hide the essence of the vicissitudes of life.

Yan Qiwei had already contacted Difei Design Company in advance, and this time, there was someone at the door to greet them, and after Yan Qiwei and Zheng Bingyang communicated with the staff of the design company, everyone was led to a conference room downstairs.

Not long after, several staff members walked into the conference room, led by a white executive wearing a Moss Bros custom suit - after introduction, this person is Blake Charles, vice president of Difei Design Company, accompanied by a petite, beautiful Chinese woman, who was also the main staff of Difei Company responsible for contacting Yan Qiwei, although it was a second-generation Chinese immigrant, but took a very pure and neutral Chinese name Song Wenqing.

Listening to Yan Qiwei's introduction of Song Wenqing as one of the main architects of Difei Design Company, when they saw me, they saw that Song Wenqing did not look like he was thirty years old, Tang Huaqing and they were all shocked.

After the two sides introduced each other's identities, Blake came over and shook hands with Chen Li, and said a string of English very quickly, Chen Li could understand that it was Blake greeting.

I saw Zheng Bingyang quickly translating on the side: "I am very welcome to Mr. Chen from the East, for the sincerity expressed by Mr. Chen, Difei Design Company would like to express my heartfelt thanks, and I hope that everyone can cooperate happily in the future." ”

After Chen Li also said an opening sentence to Blake, this Blake went straight to the point.

Blake's speech was very fast, and he spoke for several minutes without stopping, and Shen Tong left the opportunity to translate to Zheng Bingyang, and let Zheng Bingyang sit next to Chen Li.

Blake is generally modest to say that the Difei design company is not the top architectural design company in the UK, but in recent years it has been committed to classic high-end architectural design, and has won many international awards.

Prior to this, several Chinese real estate companies also approached Difei Design Company for cooperation, all because of Difei's advanced conceptual design, resulting in high cost budgets, or requiring Difei to change the design direction at every turn, and finally all failed.

Chen Li was not in a hurry to go straight to the point, but asked some professional questions.

When it comes to a large number of professional words, Zheng Bingyang's translation is a little unable to keep up, and at this time, Song Wenqing, who was standing next to Blake, undertook the task of translation, but Chen Li noticed that Blake himself did not speak much, and was even a little impatient, but it was Song Wenqing's additional content that was very detailed, answering many of Chen Li's professional questions.

In the end, Chen Li asked Yan Qiwei to hand the prepared materials to Blake.

The materials prepared by Xinchaorui, such as real estate development qualifications, the construction area of Qingquan Xinrui City, the geological overview, the environmental factors along the Shangjiang River, and the bank's asset certificates, are all in English.

At this time, Blake's mobile phone rang, went out to answer the phone, and motioned for Song Wenqing to continue talking with Chen Li.

Song Wenqing said to Chen Li: "Knowing that you are coming, we have found someone to investigate Xinchaorui, Xinchaorui is an emerging real estate development company, although very young but in China's hinterland cities to make a star enterprise, I now do not doubt the strength of Xinchaorui, but China's domestic real estate development situation, can we accept the additional cost of Difei's advanced concept design? This is also the problem that our Difei company is most worried about......"

At this time, Chen Li understood that the senior management of Difei Company has been very indifferent to this cooperation, and it should be Song Wenqing, the youngest chief architect of Difei Company, who wants to promote this cooperation, so that there is this meeting, and probably only Song Wenqing in front of him has carefully studied the information faxed by Xinchaorui in advance.

Waiting for Blake to answer the phone and then walk into the conference room, Chen Li said:

"Mr. Black, we are flying to London with sincerity, and of course, we also need to know if Difei Design can satisfy us?"

"Difei Design is not a top design company in the UK, but it is definitely a world-class level for China, isn't it because of this that you have come from thousands of miles away?" Blake asked, staring into Chen Li's eyes.

"Difei design is very famous, and we are also admired, but we are determined to spend 30 million pounds to seek cooperation this time, and we also hope that your company can reflect more sincerity of cooperation. Chen Li shrugged and said.

After listening to Song Wenqing's translation, Blake's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have confirmed that Chen Li was indeed sincere, and his attitude was slightly corrected.

"We have carried out many well-known designs in the UK, we have many design samples in our hands, Mr. Chen can stay and read them casually these days, and the modern buildings in the lower reaches of the Thames are also from the Daffie Design Company, and we can take Mr. Chen to visit the site tomorrow. ”

Chen Li smiled, and only said that the specific details of the meeting will be Tang Huaqing as the project director of Qingquan Xinrui City, Yan Qiwei as the chief architect of the Xinchaorui product research and development department, and Zhao Yang as his special assistant.

There weren't so many kind words to the British, and after Chen Li made his position clear, he offered to leave; Blake invited Chen Li and them to stay for dinner, but Chen Li politely declined on the grounds that there were other business meetings.

"Mr. Chen, did you really decide to cooperate with Difei Company this time?" Tang Huaqing was quite dissatisfied with Blake's attitude towards the front and back, but he and Yan Qiwei were in charge of the next negotiations, and he was still a little uncertain in his heart, and when he walked out of the door of Difei Company, he couldn't help but ask.

"Your next task, in addition to investigating whether the technical background of Difei Company meets our needs, is to have more technical exchanges with Song Wenqing, and see that she seems to be able to handle the important task of the chief architect - if so, then arrange for me to meet Song Wenqing alone in three days. Chen Li said.

"Mr. Chen, what are you going to ......" Tang Huaqing's eyes lit up.

"I also think that if Di Fei really wants to take our next list, it is likely to be handed over to the team led by Song Wenqing, so it is really better to dig Song Wenqing directly!" Zhou Bin said excitedly, he liked Chen Li's idea.

"It's not that simple," Chen Li said, "Song Wenqing is the main creator of a world-class architectural design firm, even if the starting point is lower now, but the annual salary and reputation will not be low in the future. ”
