Chapter 366: Big Shot
Hotel Ballack, Zurich, Switzerland.
This family-owned hotel with a history of nearly 170 years is Zurich's most prestigious and iconic hotel, which has been privately managed and has hosted countless royalty, nobles and celebrities, and has a wealth of experience in hosting these high-class personalities with all kinds of quirks.
However, after suddenly receiving a booking request, the experienced hotel experience is still a little confused.
The other party actually asked to charter the entire hotel!
Not to mention the huge cost of chartering a hotel, people who dare to make such a request will not care about the money.
It is not a simple matter to say that you want to get rid of the guests in the hotel.
Balrac is not a private mountain house, but a hotel open to the public, but the high prices and private services lead to inevitably high fees, which inevitably leads to the accommodation of high society people who are either rich or expensive.
It is possible that a financial giant of a small country can be blown down by a casual decision, or it may be a high-ranking official of a certain country.
At least as far as the manager can remember, living in several top suites, there is a royal princess, an investment banking tycoon, a Saudi prince, and a FIFA president, and these four bigwigs alone are not something that Barrach can afford to offend.
Rush this kind of guest? Ballaq probably didn't want to do it anymore.
Not only is it too demanding, but the time is too tight, so make a reservation now and pour out the room tomorrow to ensure that the guests are greeted quietly and quietly.
The key problem is that he doesn't know the identity of the other party yet!
If it is the president of Millican, this request is not impossible to consider, after all, it is the number one speaker of the world's largest power, and I think everyone can understand it.
But it's not like the Ballaq Hotel hasn't received President Millican, and people who are so awesome haven't mentioned that they want to clear the hotel, right?
Could this guest, who did not want to be named, be even more awesome than President Millican?
The manager didn't want to accept the booking if possible, and in fact, he did decline.
He made it clear to the other party that his hotel really could not meet the other party's requirements, so he asked the other party to forgive him, and hoped that the other party could find other more suitable hotels that could meet their requirements.
This answer is polite and courteous, and there is nothing wrong with it at all, even if you are picky, you can't find fault.
But he hung up the phone for less than two minutes, his own hotel owner called the phone, split his head and cover his face is a stinky scolding, he was scolded, listened to a long time before he reacted, the boss was very dissatisfied with him to push off the reservation just now, no, not dissatisfaction, but fear, in the stormy reprimand, he heard the boss can not hide the fear.
After scolding, the boss told him that the reservation had been taken and asked him to clear the venue immediately and prepare to welcome the VIP!
Although the manager was angry, he still told the boss about the other party's requirements and the situation he was facing, hoping that the boss would be more reasonable.
Even if the other party is a great person, he can't offend all the other guests for him, after all, the hotel is open for business, not counting on one or two benefactors to take care of it, even if this big man gives more money, can he still live here 365 days a year?
It's just more than worth it!
But the manager's loyalty and devotion to duty, but in exchange for a scolding, if not incapable, it is estimated that the boss can crawl along the telephone line and point his nose and scold him.
After scolding, it's still the same sentence, you must meet the other party's requirements!
A royal princess? Count the fart, let her!
Saudi princes? Count the fart, let him!
Investment banking tycoon? Count the fart, let him!
The president of the Football Federation? It's not even a fart, so let's stay and play with eggs!
After listening, the manager was sure that his boss was probably crazy.
These four, no matter which one of them, are usually big shots that the boss can only stutter with caution!
But no matter how crazy he is, it is also the boss, as a manager, it is impossible for him to make decisions for the boss, even if it is crazy, he has to implement it.
The manager was ready to continue to be scolded by the guests, personally led the team, apologized room by room, compensated for all expenses, and booked a hotel for the other party to stay, and covered all the accommodation expenses in Zurich.
After a circle, before I got to the guest room, the year was all in vain.
However, fortunately, it was quite smooth, although the explanation was not sufficient, but the posture was in place, the benefits were given, and the guests of the executive room were also well-educated characters, so they packed up their things and went to other places in the car prepared by the hotel.
The hardest part is also the big guy in the few suites.
has a high status, a big temper, and a lot of subordinates, if it doesn't make sense, it is impossible to force it out, and the possibility of making sense is probably non-existent.
It's an impossible task.
With such a toss, Ballack's reputation is completely finished.
The manager walked to the elevator to the princess's suite with a heavy heart.
But before he arrived, the elevator fell down first, the elevator door opened, and he saw the princess who was known for her arrogance rushing out of the elevator in a panic with a big ticket, and rushed out of the hotel without even answering him.
The manager was taken by surprise.
That's good luck.
He thought that if only the next few could leave on their own.
The manager thinks so, but he doesn't take it seriously, even if God really appears, it is impossible to drive out such three big people at the same time.
However, God seems to have heard his wish and had a rare manifestation.
Following the princess, the prince and the president of the Football Federation fled as quickly as possible with their subordinates.
The investment banking tycoon was the last to leave the hotel. However, he did not go to other hotels like everyone else, but after leaving, he stayed outside the hotel gate, and did not even leave at night, but stayed in the car for the night!
The world is crazy.
The manager found it really incomprehensible.
No matter how terrible the big man who wants to charter the hotel is, those people will not leave like fleeing.
I don't know what kind of awesome character it will be.
Fortunately, the question didn't last long.
That evening, the owner who was abroad rushed back to carefully inspect all the facilities of the hotel.
Early the next morning, people came to the hotel one after another.
But the people who came were greatly surprised by the manager's expectations.
The first to arrive turned out to be the Deputy Federal Vice-President and Foreign Minister Burke!
This is one of the best in Switzerland!
Switzerland is a council state, and real power is in the hands of the seven-seat Federal Council. The seven-seat Federal Council is made up of ministers from seven organs of the State. All members of the Federal Council collectively act as heads of state. The President of the Confederation is rotated by seven members of the Federal Council and represents Switzerland externally for a term of one year.
When Mr. Burke arrived, it was not even dawn. It can be seen that Mr. Burke came in a very hurry, so that his hair was a little messy, which is simply unimaginable for the most appearance-oriented politicians, especially since Mr. Burke is also the leader of the Conservative Party, and the attitude of the Conservative Party in terms of etiquette is famous as "the head can be broken and the hair can be flowed, and the hairstyle cannot be messy"!
Mr. Burke, who came in a hurry, repeated what the boss had done last night, but because of the lack of time, he could not inspect the whole hotel, at most he looked at the suite and the back kitchen, and when he left, he shook the boss's hand, and said earnestly: "Didier, please, make sure that gentleman is satisfied, the future of the whole Swiss people depends on you!" ”
The boss was trembling a little, not excited, but obviously a little afraid, almost crying: "Mr. Minister, I will sell the hotel now, no, give it away, is it too late?" ”
Mr. Burke sighed heavily, patted the boss on the shoulder, and walked away, leaving the mournful boss himself.
What kind of big man is it that makes Mr. Burke rush over to the front station?
The manager couldn't figure it out.
Even if President Millican comes, it won't be, everyone is Swiss, not from the United States, even if you want to enforce the law across borders, you have to ask hundreds of thousands of Swiss troops if they agree, right?
As a Swiss, the manager is quite confident and proud of his country's national defense strength.
But the boss doesn't seem to be so confident and proud.
As soon as Mr. Burke and his party left, and the sky was just dawning, the second group arrived at the hotel.
This time, the manager finally saw a few familiar Mi Guo characters.
That's a few heavyweight bigwigs, in the United States are the real big people who can stomp their feet to cause an earthquake, they can be regarded as old customers of the Balrac Hotel, every time they come to Switzerland to discuss business or ski or tryst, they will choose the Balrac Hotel.
However, the group of people who came with these bigwigs were obviously not the last, and they might even be the lowest, because they could only stand on the outermost side, and they couldn't even squeeze a little closer.
The manager didn't know the people who were surrounded in the middle, but he heard someone call an old man in the middle Mr. Crane. He could probably guess who it was.
Mr. Beran, who can make several bigwigs can only be his entourage, is only the behind-the-scenes boss of DXN Group, known as the financial emperor of Millican. Crane.
This is a real big man, indeed bigger than President Millican, and for others, the big president is just a high-level wage earner who works for people like him. At their level, this is Millican, or the true ruler of the world.
If several people around him are at the same level as him, they are probably qualified to charter the hotel and clear the scene, but it seems a little inadequate to scare the princess and prince to flee in a hurry.
The manager saw that his boss almost crawled over to greet Berry. Mr. Crane and his party.
But Berry. Crane and the gang had no intention of going to the guest room, they went their separate ways, and did what the manager and Mr. Burke had done again, and inspected the whole hotel from beginning to end with the large number of people, and finally replaced all the staff in the hotel with the people they brought, from the doorman to the waiter to the chef in the back kitchen, all of them were replaced by the people they brought with them.
After the change, the gang of big men sat down in the lobby, looking a little anxious and anxious.
Only then did the manager figure out that this Millican financial emperor was also from the front station!
can let these big shots come to the front station, it's really awesome!
At about 9 o'clock in the morning, the third wave arrived.
There were not many people who came this time, but they all looked solemn, and they all had the temperament of a high-ranking religious person.
The leader is a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, with blonde hair and blue eyes, like a Barbie doll coming out of a cartoon.
Berry. The crowd led by Crane greeted the little girl from a distance, and respectfully welcomed the little girl in.
At this time, neither the boss nor the manager is qualified to come forward to contact.
They were kept because they were familiar with the hotel, and they needed to be consulted if necessary.
The manager and the boss are like two rats with their nests occupied, huddled pitifully in the corner, trying not to attract the attention of the big men in front of them.
So, Mr. Burke's remark that the future of the entire Swiss people rests on the boss is indeed too much, and who has ever seen a man who is burdened in a corner?
After the little girl had asked some questions, she seemed a little unhappy, and after a few more words, someone ran over and slipped the boss and manager who were huddled in the corner.
The boss was so nervous that he couldn't stand still, and when the little girl asked, he stammered and couldn't even say a complete word.
It's the manager, the ignorant who are fearless, and quite calm.
The manager's composure won the favor of the little girl.
Now he knew that the little girl's name was Miss Millettle.
This is Berry. Crane was the only one who dared to call him that, and the others didn't even dare to look up at the little girl by her name, obviously the little girl's somewhat understated displeasure just now had frightened these big people.
Miss Millettle asked some questions about the hotel, and the manager gave detailed answers to them, which made the little girl very satisfied, and asked the manager to lead her around the top suites.
Well, this little girl who can frighten a bunch of really big guys with a few words is also the first to stand!
She walked back and forth a few times between several suites, looking a little undecided, muttering something like "will I not like it" and "will I hate these", etc., and seemed to be a little troubled.
For this kind of difficult choice of guests, the manager is very experienced, so he said to the little girl that if you can't make up your mind or can't make up your mind, you can wait for the guest to choose by yourself.
It was a very common suggestion, but after he said this, he found that the scene became extremely heavy and depressing, and some people even looked at him with a foolish look.
