Chapter 52: Three Glasses of Wine

Generally, there is no urgency, Li Desheng will not go downstairs in person to squat, Qin Ran saw this and understood that he must have something important to find himself.

"Secretary Xu Jimin of Ningbo City has arrived in Jiangzhou, and he means that he wants to see you."

At this time, Qin Ran found that the mobile phone he put in his schoolbag and turned it to silent had been turned off without power, no wonder Li Desheng couldn't get through the phone, so he had to run to guard it. Today, because of Ye Linghan's matter, Qin Ran didn't notice the movement of the schoolbag.

Xu Jimin went to the provincial party committee to report his work today, and then wanted to negotiate with Qin Ran on relevant matters in person, so after checking the schedule, he asked the secretary to inform Li Desheng.

Jiangnan Group's investment in Ningbo City is quite smooth, and Ningbo "Jiangnan-Ningxuan" project has opened hotly, and the rapid return of funds has become a bright spot in Ningbo City's economy this year.

"You go and arrange it, just say that we will have an East banquet in the evening to invite Secretary Xu. Notify me when you're sure and I'll drive over when the time comes. Oh, remember to call Mr. Guo. ”

Xu Jimin is an official with strategic vision, and the relationship between Jiangnan Group and Ningbo City is good, and it is rare for him to take the initiative to come to the door, so Qin Ran will not refuse the other party's request to meet. In terms of Ningbo Place, it has always been Guo Huiming who has followed up, although he was transferred back to Jiangzhou to be responsible for the preparation of commercial real estate, that is, Jiangnan Plaza, but Ningbo City is still in charge of him.

The well-maintained Audi A6L left with a smoke, reflecting Li Desheng's love for it from the side, and he gave him the car as a prize at the beginning, which was exactly what he liked. The trivial matter of setting up a banquet was handed over to Li Desheng to handle, and Qin Ran had always been very relieved about him.

One person returns to the dormitory. Qin Ran hurriedly charged his mobile phone, then took a shower and changed his clothes to prepare for the banquet in the evening.

During the period when he was taking a shower and blowing his hair, Li Desheng called and said. The dinner has been arranged. Ningbo has accepted the invitation and will meet in the VIP box of the Jiangzhou Hotel in the evening.

It's a pity that the hotels of my own group, whether it is a golf resort hotel or a supporting five-star hotel in Jiangnan Plaza, have not been built, otherwise there is no need to go to other people's territory to entertain guests. As soon as November next year, according to the plan, their golf course will be opened, and then there will be a home advantage in Jiangzhou.

As the host guest, of course Qin Ran had to be in place in advance. Waiting for the arrival of Secretary Xu at the hotel. The secretary called Li Desheng 10 minutes in advance, estimated the time to lead Li Desheng and Guo Huiming, and Qin Ran personally went to the door to greet Secretary Xu's arrival.

Although you can wait in the private room. But Qin Ran felt that it was better to come down to greet him in person, after all, the other party was a prince, and he couldn't be lazy in terms of etiquette. Sure enough, when Xu Jimin arrived, he saw Qin Ran personally greeting him at the door, and his originally flat face immediately brightened.

Xu Jimin didn't bring other idlers. There are only 3 drivers and accompanying secretaries. Together with Qin Ran's side, there were a total of 6 people sitting in the box. Since Qin Ran was present, he didn't like liquor, so Li Desheng asked the waiter to import the reserve red wine. After all, it is the secretary of the municipal party committee who is entertaining, and the rank must be in line with the identity of the other party, and there is no need to say much about famous wine and expensive food. The atmosphere of the dinner was quite relaxed and pleasant, and Secretary Xu and Qin Ran shared interesting things about each other in their respective fields.

"Mr. Qin, you promised me to carry out a pilot commercial plaza complex in Ningbo City, but now you have transferred your generals to Jiangzhou. I'm so dead! ”

The atmosphere was suitable, and Secretary Xu revealed the true purpose of the trip.

Originally, Qin Ran said that he would invest 500 million yuan in Ningbo to build Jiangnan Square first. But now there is no movement, but in Jiangzhou to make the CBD benchmark Jiangnan Plaza - a super commercial body with an investment of 1.5 billion. At the beginning, you urged the government to come forward to demolish and relocate, but the government finished the work that should be done, but you became an ostrich and buried your head in Jiangzhou and didn't listen to Ning Bo's affairs, which made Secretary Xu not very happy. Jiangzhou is in full swing, and Ningbo City didn't hear the sound of water for half a day, so it's no wonder that our Secretary Xu wants to talk to Qin Ran.

The capital of Jiangzhou is vigorous, and Ningbo City, as a subordinate city, naturally can't compare, but at least it can't be too favoritism, which chills the heart of the local government, and it is really inevitable that Secretary Xu will complain in his heart.

The site demolished by Nimbo City is an old city renovation, and the original design stated that Jiangnan Square and pedestrian streets will strive to create a new urban commercial center. Although Guo Huiming is still nominally the manager of the Ningbo branch, his main energy is now basically on the first Jiangnan Plaza in Jiangzhou, which is in high demand, and the commercial real estate in Ningbo City is basically suspended.

"Haha, Secretary Xu's criticism is very right, and I sincerely accept it. Even if our company pays the people of Ningbo a glass of reparation, we will return Manager Guo to you tomorrow. ”

When Qin Ran came, he guessed that Xu Jimin should still be here for Jiangnan Group's investment in Ningbo Expo. Some time ago, Ningbo City sent someone to urge the construction progress of the local Jiangnan Square, but Qin Ran easily dismissed it on the grounds that it was planning. I can hide from the first day of junior high school, but I can't hide from the fifteenth, today Ning Bo's leader personally came to the door, and Qin Ran had to apologize in a low voice.

The company's strategy was indeed to build the first commercial plaza in Ningbo City, but the plan always couldn't keep up with the rapid change, and the CBD strategy in Jiangzhou and the preferential conditions given made Qin Ran have to change his business strategy. According to Qin Ran's prophetic advantage, Jiangnan Square must still be built in Ningbo City, after all, a good location is a scarce resource, not to mention that the consumption habits of citizens still need a period of time to be nurtured and cultivated.

"Wait, there are 3.5 million fathers and villagers in Ningbo City, 1 million cups, rounding it doesn't count, Mr. Qin, you can do it yourself!"

As soon as he wanted to pour half a glass of red wine into his mouth, Qin Ran was stopped by Secretary Xu, seeing his expression, he didn't want Qin Ran to pass the test so quickly.

Red wine is to be "tasted", but in China, it is basically the same as white wine, and the main use is still in "pouring".

Secretary Xu can say such a thing, which shows that although he still bears the title of secretary, his role has been transformed into a normal entertainment among friends. To paraphrase in layman's terms, Secretary Xu put down his body and prepared to have fun with the people.

Full of 3 goblets of red wine, basically a bottle of red wine is gone, which is a big test for Qin Ran.

"Xu ......"

Li Desheng just wanted to interject to help the boss resist, blocking wine is a major important role for subordinates at the wine table, but was interrupted by Qin Ran waving his hand.

"Since it is the criticism and love of the people of Ningbo, today I will be witnessed by the local parent official Secretary Xu, and on behalf of Jiangnan Group, I will personally apologize to the 3.5 million parents of food and clothing: if there is a change, it will be encouraged."

As soon as the words fell, Qin Ran motioned to Li Desheng to help him pour a full glass of red wine, raised his head and poured it into his mouth.

After drinking, I felt a bitterness in my throat, and the taste of red wine remained in my mouth, and the first glass of the task was completed. Wine is like character, and his side is indeed at a loss, so Qin Ran knows that there are some things that cannot be avoided, so it is better to be frank and. Although Qin Ran has always been invisible, the entertainment necessary for the company to become bigger is still indispensable.

"Good!"

The secretary who was watching the battle first clapped his hands and applauded.

At this time, Xu Jimin also showed a brighter smile on his face, smiling and waiting for Qin Ran to make further moves.

"Our first real estate project in Ningbo City, 'Jiangnan-Ningxuan', has been successful, with a removal rate of 100%, and this cup has to add a layer of meaning - celebration wine. Here, I would like to express my extra thanks to Mr. Guo for his hard work and the strong support of the Ningbo Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. I did it, you feel free. ”

Qin Ran raised his glass to Guo Huiming and Xu Jimin, and drank it all again.

Relying on his young and strong body, Qin Ran really let it go, but he still pulled the other party by the way while drinking. Drink a glass by yourself, I guess Secretary Xu is embarrassed to only take a small sip.

The boss drank two large glasses, and Guo Huiming must have said that he was in place, so he also stood up and poured his wine glass full of red wine.

"Secretary Xu, you see that we are so sincere, I believe you will not let us down!"

Guo Huiming has worked in Ningbo City for a period of time, so he is still familiar and calm when facing Xu Jimin.

"Since Mr. Qin and Manager Guo are so realistic, then I will rely on my elders to round up the amount of 3.5 million Ningbo people just now for you."

Xu Jimin motioned to the secretary to fill half a glass for himself, stood up and drank the wine after touching Guo Huiming.

"Okay—"

Seeing this, everyone else present, including Qin Ran, applauded Secretary Xu's bold move.

After drinking two large cups in a row, Qin Ran needed to breathe a sigh of relief, and quickly seized the time to drink hot soup to warm his stomach.

"The first cup of reparation, the second cup of celebration, and the third cup is the military order. Before the end of this year, our company will complete the project of Ningbo City Commercial Plaza, and ensure that the construction will start in the middle of next year, so as to live up to the ardent expectations of the 3.5 million people in Ningbo City! ”

Qin Ran knew that he still had to give an explanation to Ningbo City, so when he was drinking the third glass, he personally made a promise to Secretary Xu. It is now August 1999, and the design and planning of Jiangzhou Jiangnan Square is now very smooth, and it can basically be directly copied to Ningbo City in the future, so it should not be a problem to complete the project demonstration before the end of the year. In the long run, the project will definitely be successful, and now it only involves the company's capital and manpower allocation. As a result, when the construction of Jiangzhou Jiangnan Plaza begins, the group's second commercial complex in Ningbo City will also enter the implementation stage.

Hearing the news, the two people present were the happiest. One is Xu Jimin, his purpose today is mainly for this, and now that Qin Ran has promised him personally, naturally there will be no more variables. The second is Guo Huiming, who originally thought that the project in Ningbo City might have to be delayed, after all, the first Jiangnan Plaza in Jiangzhou has not yet been built and operated, and the company decided to immediately launch the second commercial complex. As a person in the real estate industry, he is naturally aware of the business risks involved. However, from his own position, as the director of commercial real estate, he naturally hopes that the company can do its best to do commercial real estate, after all, he is still not properly named, and the brand of "Jiangnan Commercial" Qin Ran has not yet been officially established.

When Qin Ran's banquet was in full swing, in a private hall in Hudong City, a large group of people were celebrating the achievement with red faces and red ears around the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and Xu Wenjie, who had white hair at the end of the seat, was in the ranks.
