Chapter 19: Super Mouthwash (2)
Located in the heart of Quanshi, with a total of 33 floors, the International Trade Building is one of the few landmarks in Quanshi, and is a building integrating commercial and office buildings.
Our house is not very far from the International Trade Building, about a ten minutes by car, and it may be faster if you don't wait for the traffic light.
The fifth floor below the China World Trade Building is a large shopping mall. All floors above the fifth floor are office buildings. The companies that can live in the office buildings of the International Trade Center are generally well-known companies, and the total assets will not be less than tens of millions. Because the rent here is not cheap, it is not something that ordinary small companies can afford.
"Brother Zhang, I'm here!" After arriving at the International Trade Building, I called Zhang Guotao as soon as I got off the bus.
Zhang Guotao said, "Brother, you go directly to the No. 2 gate and No. 5 elevator, I have already asked someone to wait for you over there." ”
The building has a total of two gates, one for shopping malls and one for offices. The gate of the mall is No. 1, and the office building is No. 2. The elevators of the two gates are not the same.
As soon as I entered the second gate, I was presented with a map of the various floors reclining in front of me. Each floor of the International Trade Building is about 800 square meters. Generally, there are at least two companies on the first floor, and two companies with strong strength. I took a cursory look, but I didn't expect that the 25th to 33rd floors were actually the same company, called "Huatai Group".
I heard that the boss of Huatai Group is related to one of the five current members of the Standing Committee of the State who was born in Quanshi, and that Standing Committee's surname is Xia Mingjianguo.
"Surname Xia? Isn't Zhang Guotao's wife also surnamed Xia! It dawned on me.
No wonder. No wonder Zhang Guotao can easily get me a guaranteed place for the second book. It's not easy to have such a layer.
The hall of the second gate occupies about the general area of the first floor, and there are several reception offices in the hall, the largest of which is from Huatai Group.
Five elevators lined up, and those receptions lined up along elevators 1 and 5. The reception of Huatai Group is the one closest to elevator No. 5.
Compared with the other four elevators, the flow of people in the No. 5 elevator is not flattering.
As I walked towards elevator five, I was greeted by a man.
"May I ask if you were born by Zhu Xiao?" The man came up to me and said to me.
"I am." I replied. I think this person should have been called by Zhang Guotao to pick me up.
"Hello! I was sent by Zhang Dong to pick you up, please come with me! The man confirmed my identity and said to me very politely.
I said, "Okay." ”
When the man walked up to elevator five, he took a card from his body and swiped it on a sensor on elevator five. I just thought that this No. 5 elevator should be dedicated to Huatai Group, no wonder there are so few people.
"Thirty-three floors." After entering the elevator, the person pressed the largest number inside the elevator.
During the time when the elevator was slowly ascending, the man didn't say a word to me anymore. Maybe it's guessing who I am, or maybe there's a rule in the company.
The elevator soon reached the thirty-third floor. After getting out of the elevator, I realized that there were five elevator doors in the lobby on the first floor, and only one was left. It seems that this elevator is dedicated to the 33rd floor, or a certain floor or above.
Directly opposite the elevator door is an arc-shaped reception, but the people at the reception are not delicate beauties, but two big men in black suits and ties, almost without black glasses.
The man who brought me up pointed to me and said to one of the men in black
"This is Dong Zhang's guest!"
The man in black nodded. Then the guy who picked me up didn't say anything and went down the stairway not far from the elevator.
Led by the man in black, I arrived at a richly decorated office, where Zhang Guotao was sitting in the boss's chair and writing something with his head down.
"Dong Zhang, the guest you want to see has arrived!" The man in black said to Zhang Guotao.
Zhang Guotao raised his head and said to me
"Brother, you're here, hurry up and wait for me to process these documents."
Then he said to the man in black
"Go make a cup of tea for the guests."
It seems that Zhang Guotao is quite busy. I sat down on the couch next to me.
The leather sofa is comfortable to sit on.
After a while, the man in black just now brought a cup of steaming tea, put it in front of me, and then withdrew without saying a word. At this time, the whole office was so quiet that only the rustle of Zhang Guotao's writing was there.
Looking at the busy Zhang Guotao, I think he won't be able to stop for a while. That's when I looked into his office.
In the huge office, there are all kinds of precious mahogany carvings with simple aromas. The floor is covered with ornate carpets. On the walls hung several calligraphy paintings framed in very fine wooden frames, and looking at the night of those papers, it seemed to be several years old. Huge floor-to-ceiling windows next to an indoor golf. Looking out the window, you can see the busiest streets of Izumi City at a glance. Two large bookcases are stocked with a variety of books, both domestic and foreign. I don't think I can get such an office in the tens of millions.
"Brother will let you get it." Zhang Guotao finally put down the documents in his hand and said to me with a smile.
I said, "It's me who bothered Brother Zhang." ”
Zhang Guotao said: "The family should not say such things. Say, this time, you are looking for Brother Zhang, do I need my help with something. You kid hasn't even taken the initiative to find me. ”
"Brother Zhang, I want to show you something." As I spoke, I took out the bottle of mouthwash that I had prepared long ago.
"A bottle of water?" After reading what I took out, Zhang Guotao said with some confusion.
I said, "This bottle is not ordinary water, this is my friend's newly developed mouthwash, because it is much better than ordinary mouthwash, so it is called super mouthwash." ”
Zhang Guotao said, "Super mouthwash? I don't know how it compares to regular mouthwashes. ”
I said, "In addition to the effects of ordinary mouthwashes, this mouthwash also has several effects that ordinary mouthwashes do not have. This mouthwash can make people's teeth whiter, and it can also be very effective in removing tartar and dirt on the teeth, increasing the density of the teeth, and repairing damaged gums without any side effects on the human body, even if you accidentally drink it, it is just like drinking ordinary water. ”
"So powerful?" Zhang Guotao said a little incredulously.
I said, "Yes! The most important point is that this mouthwash is only known to my friend to produce. There is no one in this world who can copy it except him. ”
Zhang Guotao said: "According to what you say, this thing can completely replace the existing toothpaste as soon as it comes out." I just don't know if its manufacturing process is complicated or how expensive it is. ”
I said, "My friend said that it is not complicated to make it at all, and the cost of making it is very low, and the main substance that makes it is discovered by my friend by accident, and the formula of that substance is known only to my friend." ”
Zhang Guotao said: "It seems that if this mouthwash is really as you say, then it is definitely a gold-absorbing stone." ”
I said, "Brother Zhang, then you can take it to the experiment first, I have two bottles here, both for you." If you want to work with my friend if you think it's good, just call me directly. My friend won't be looking for another person to cooperate with until I get a reply from you. ”
Zhang Guotao said: "What does your friend have to do with you?" How can this be done? ”
Yes, it's no wonder that Zhang Guotao has such a question. If this mouthwash is what I say it is, it would be a fool not to cooperate with my friend.
I said, "It doesn't matter, it's just that I helped him, and he said that his life would be mine from then on." ”
Zhang Guotao said, "Have you saved him, or have you been kind to him?" ”
I said, "It's a bit of both." ”
"Okay brother, can you give me a little time to think about it, and I'll give you the answer in a few days?" Zhang Guotao thought for a while and said.
I said, "It's okay Brother Zhang, until I get your reply, I promise that my friend will not cooperate with the second person." ”
"Then Brother Zhang, thank you in advance." Zhang Guotao said to me with a smile.
If mouthwash really has that much to do, it's not just about money. Exclusive, what kind of concept is this. As soon as this mouthwash comes out, the richest man in the world may be replaced.
It seems that Zhang Guotao is really busy. I declined his offer to have lunch and left his office.
"Brother Zhang, I hope you can seize this opportunity, because there are still a lot of good things waiting for you in the future. If you don't take advantage of this opportunity, then I don't think I will ever contact you again. I said to myself.
I sincerely hope that Zhang Guotao will not think that I am just joking with him, and I hope that he can make a wise choice. I walked out of the World Trade Building full of hope.
"You come up and down first, I have something to look for you." Not long after I left, Zhang Guotao made a phone call and said.
"Brother Xiaotian, I hope you are serious, and not just take some ordinary things to joke with me. And that so-called friend of yours. After hanging up the phone, Zhang Guotao muttered to himself.
