Chapter 187: Starting Over (2)
Sixty years with spring
Chapter 187
Starting all over again (2)
According to Ji Ming's agreement, Che Hongxuan drove Lao Shi to the summer palace.
Che Hongxuan said: "I got the news that Ji Ming wants me to go over to be the manager, and I can take you and Yu Yang with me." ”
"Huh?" Lao Shi was taken aback and felt inexplicable.
Che Hongxuan smiled and said, "What Ji Xin said last night will not be false. ”
Lao Shi said puzzledly: "He himself is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, how can he have the spirit to support us?" ”
Che Hongxuan explained: "The situation has changed a lot, and it is said that the new leader of the distant company is a relative of Ji Ming,------
"Will this happen?"
"Not only that, but the top should also increase investment, which is a factor that cannot be underestimated."
"I see."
"Even then, we can't be recruited."
"yes, it's better to convince them to quit the ancient city project."
"It's also a difficult thing to do."
------
The two soon came to the summer palace. This summer palace is an indoor playground, set water entertainment, leisure, food as a whole, known as the largest in Asia, the perennial temperature is 25 degrees Celsius, warm as summer, can accommodate 2,000 people at the same time, there are swimming pools, wave pools, surf pools and saunas, indoor everywhere planted with tall temperate plants, come here as if in the southern rainforest. Maybe it's not because of holidays or too high spending, but there aren't many people playing today.
Che Hongxuan and Lao Shi found Ji Ming under a coconut tree by the pool. There are two beauties in the pool, I don't know if it was brought by Ji Ming, and they floated two glances here from time to time.
Ji Ming wore sunglasses and sat there leisurely alone, probably the cigarette he had secretly brought in, and he looked very good in his mouth*. The bluestone slab in front of you is lined with apples, bananas, and strawberries, each of which has green leaves on it, which is very attractive. Canned drinks, including beer, are placed on the side of the fruit bowl, and this posture is what Cantonese people call "big guys".
Ji Ming stood up lazily, came over to shake hands with Che Hongxuan first, pulled Che Hongxuan to sit down, and said to Lao Shi unceremoniously: "What should you do, let's talk about business." ”
Lao Shi was so angry that he turned his head and left, scolding in his heart: "Bai has been in the society for so many years, and he can't even say a word!" ”
Ji Ming invited Che Hongxuan to eat fruit and drink beer, and then asked with a smile: "Why don't you turn on the machine when you go out?" How can anyone do such a thing? What a mistake! ”
Che Hongxuan didn't understand what this meant, so he took a sip of beer and took a strawberry to eat.
"I contacted you twice before and after the holiday, but I didn't get in touch, and there are important things to negotiate."
Che Hongxuan said: "There are more socials outside, and I didn't pay attention to this aspect during the Spring Festival. ”
"The ancient city project has an eyebrow?"
Che Hongxuan nodded and said, "I'm working hard." ”
Ji Ming also picked up the beer, and said disappreciatively while drinking: "I can't believe what you said. The ancient city project is completely different from the Harbin project, the Harbin project belongs to Party A, and no one does it locally, so we can easily get it. The risks here can be imagined. Of course, I agreed at the beginning, and the preliminary project was not large, and the risk was controllable, so I signed it. ”
Che Hongxuan retorted: "The Harbin project has the reason you said, but this is on the surface, in fact, it is because the president of the design institute Zhou spoke to Boss Liu that he gave me the project." If you don't want to take a risk, you don't have to. ”
Ji Ming waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be strong on the old car, the matter is there." As for the project of the ancient city development zone, we all know that it is a government project, and the payment terms are definitely no problem. But as I understand it, your relationship is not easy at all. I have an old Yuan who runs the project, and his classmate is the deputy mayor of Gucheng, and he has promised to give him the project. ”
Che Hongxuan retorted: "This is nonsense! I'm here today to tell you that I've been talking about this project for more than a year, are you withdrawing? I hope you don't mess with it, it's not good, especially since we've been friends for many years. ”
Ji Ming smiled and asked, "If I let you withdraw now, can you do it?" ”
Che Hongxuan was speechless when asked.
Ji Ming said proudly: "This is not something that can be dismissed with a word, there is a cost in it." No matter whose relationship is reliable, it seems that there can only be fair competition inside. Lao Che, you also know, if I don't let Lao Yuan intervene, he will find another company to affiliate, this kind of thing will not give up when it is not revealed or stared, and everyone will say that the relationship is hard. ”
Che Hongxuan thought about it and said: "It doesn't matter if you are affiliated with other companies, unlike us, we are all derived from distant groups, and the price gap is too big to explain when bidding." Lao Yuan will not have a better relationship than me, if he proposes any conditions, I can meet them, let him get out of the way! ”
"Don't talk too much, just let it be! Old car, I have something important to talk to you about today. There are some things that happen during the Spring Festival that I need to talk to you about. I'm going to hire a professional manager to take the front desk, are you interested? Most of the old leaders of the big companies are still there, they know you very well, and they want to recall you back to restore your division level to manage my business. You accept my management alone, so to speak, one person is below ten thousand people. Regarding your subordinates, Lao Shi and Yu Yang, Director Xie can bring them over. ”
Che Hongxuan was stunned, he didn't expect such a thing to happen. In the past years, he had dreamed many times of going back to work, he felt that it was too difficult for him to come out and fight, lonely, and even had a feeling of living on the streets, he had cried in his dreams, and he couldn't help but smile when he woke up. He knew that what Ji Ming said was not a lie, but it was obviously asking him to be a puppet, which was not what he hoped to do.
Ji Ming continued: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, although I have a bit of foreign debt, the company's factory alone is worth five million. Also, I can guarantee your personal income when you come. In the future, the annual decoration projects of large companies will be ours, and I have now started to handle the first-class qualification. Old car, don't hesitate, come to me right away, we will develop together! ”
This is quite tempting, Che Hongxuan thought for a long time, and finally said slowly: "If a big company wants to use me, instead of letting me manage your business, I will be very happy." In fact, you don't know, the leaders of large companies have opinions about me, so no one kept me when I went to the sea at that time. They think that there is a direct reason for me to dry up the company, and they think that I eat and drink, and do not spend my main energy on work. Besides, you know that we are like us, and we have developed a problem if we have not succeeded in our career, and we often come into contact with the dirtiest places in society, and we are no longer suitable for formal enterprises to do it, and we can't do it. If you want to do it, you can only do it like me, and you can't find another mother-in-law. So, you hurry up and arrange someone else, don't make a mistake, I can't go over. ”
"Listen to me, you must not let go of this opportunity. I have a relationship, and I will soon be able to apply for the next level of qualification. We are backed by large companies, not only can we do a big business, but we will also have a bumper harvest politically, how can we be better than you being a self-employed person and a contractor! ”
"Thank you sincerely for your concern, I don't want to send people under the fence."
"You really have an old car, which is more or less unclear?"
"No, no."
"Either that, you sign the project of the ancient city, and I will charge you less management fees, which is also the biggest support for me."
"Tier 2 companies are definitely not good."
"It's going to be level 1 soon, what's not to do? Besides, isn't that a relationship problem? ”
Che Hongxuan thought about it and said, "It's impossible. After the project in Harbin is signed, it must be managed well, and the cooperative family must make good friends, so that the road can go far. ”
"You don't have to worry about this."
Without speculation, Che Hongxuan went to find Lao Shi to swim. The two played for a while, and then didn't go to Ji Ming for dinner, put on their clothes and went home.
Ji Ming didn't expect such a result, he knew that it would be useless if Che Hongxuan didn't go to the road to persuade him. In order to avoid some sensitive issues, he needs a substitute for the dead to charge forward. turned out that Che Hongxuan didn't come, so he had to hang another target.
He thought about it for a while and was about to go swimming, but suddenly met Boss Cao, and the two sat down and chatted.
Ji Ming and Boss Cao of Yongfeng Aluminum are very familiar with each other, and they were all relevant business units of the Aluminum Doors and Windows Branch of Xiangyuan Group in the past, although the two are familiar with each other, they have not done anything.
Boss Cao felt strange, Ji Ming was still so polite after not seeing each other for many years. Thinking about it again, maybe there was some big project to rely on, so I lazily agreed to eat here together in the evening after a long time.
In fact, Ji Ming knows Boss Cao, who invited it is Boss Cao's capital to show off, which shows how high his status is, and Ji Ming took a fancy to this point and unceremoniously offered to invite him to dinner.
Nowadays, after nearly 20 years of opening, the rich are no longer small 10,000 yuan households, the consumption level has been greatly improved, and eating in big hotels and star-rated hotels during the Spring Festival is regarded as a fashion and a symbol of status. Especially the big bosses on those scenes, almost every day in the big hotel, puff up their chests, hug each other in front and back, show off their might, today you invite me, tomorrow I invite you, all day long in the wine pool and meat forest, forgetful, it seems that the world is too small to accommodate them. Those who have not yet become rich, in order to chase fashion, will also tighten their belts and take their family and friends once or twice, once or twice, not to mention those who spend public money. For this reason, Ji Ming unceremoniously arranged a good and generous scene, so that Boss Cao could see his strength.
Ji Ming and Boss Cao sat and chatted at the first reception in the hall.
People who go to this kind of high-end restaurant to eat are all heads and faces, and they will meet a lot of people when they sit in the lobby, which are all high-grade in the jargon. Only when you see these people can you not come in vain, and you can praise each other and satisfy the pleasure of showing up. In the words of Boss Cao, "What is the purpose of making money?" Isn't it just louder than others? "Before the holiday, Boss Cao's brother-in-law killed the mother and wife after drunk driving, the mother was in her forties, and her daughter was only 16 years old.
When Boss Cao saw people, he said, "What money can do, it doesn't matter." Therefore, he is now proud of the spring breeze and worth a hundred times, and he must sit in the hall for a long time when he goes to eat in a restaurant. It's important, it's an expert practice. Only those who spend public money, in order to avoid repercussions, are reluctant to stay here.
This hotel is very high-grade, the price is extremely expensive, only a pick-up and ordering hall has more than 200 square meters, in the middle is a round huge glass fish tank, there are rockeries, coral reefs and seaweeds, all kinds of seawater ornamental fish swim happily, refreshing, breathtaking. The floor is made of ivory white tiles, the walls are made of natural Egyptian beige marble, the booth is a glass fish tank with natural black golden marble and stainless steel inlay, and all kinds of fresh seafood are cheerfully greeted by strings of white bubbles, and no one knows where these things come from. The ceiling is creamy white, and there are various elaborate golden lamps hanging from it. The hospitality places are separated by tropical plants in a row, it is very convenient to sit inside and look at the outside, and the outside is far away and you can't see the inside clearly, which is very particular and ecological. Eating here, rich people are okay, if you are an ordinary office worker who asks someone to do something, you don't know how much it will cost, and you are shocked every time you order a big dish. The liquor is even more staggeringly expensive, there is no liquor within 200 yuan, there is no general beer, and the cheapest is the Yellow River dry beer, which is 15 yuan a bottle.
The waiter poured tea for Ji Ming and Boss Cao.
Ji Ming was preoccupied, smoking one cigarette after another, and coughing a few times from time to time.
Boss Cao was not ambiguous, he smoked the same, and if he smoked too much, he would inevitably cough a few times. Today, he wears a red sweater, gray jeans, and black leather shoes. Every time he goes out to eat, he will deliberately dress up and spray perfume all over his body. He also has a habit that whoever invites him must bring his wife and five or six-year-old grandsons, as well as a few of his cronies. Today was no exception, he came with his three deputies, his wife and grandson, driving his dark green Camry sedan. He had driven this car for many years and was unwilling to give it up. Now, his son drives a BMW, and his wife drives a sports car, but he hasn't changed the car yet, and he drives it himself when he has a personal matter.
The wife took her grandson to play in the lobby, and several female managers and waiters flatteringly surrounded her grandson to tease her.
Boss Cao is also a frequent visitor here, with a gold card, the big and small heads of the hotel come to greet him, these big and small heads are all beautiful women, they all have public relations ability, and they have a commission for ordering a meal. Therefore, they are especially polite to big bosses and old users.
Everyone knew that the two bosses had something to talk about, and they all avoided it.
Boss Cao first talked about the national and industry situation for a while, then talked about the grand blueprint for the development of the enterprise, and finally bragged about what he saw and heard when he went to Beijing to study.
Boss Cao was at a time when his career was booming, and he was wealthy, of course, if there was no one around, he talked endlessly, and he didn't pay attention to Ji Ming at all. When he talks about his happiness, he will laugh "haha" twice, and his laughter can be heard everywhere in the lobby.
Ji Ming is like a little brother with stinky feet, he only nods frequently and listens carefully, there is no chance to speak, and he can't help but feel aggrieved in his heart.
People kept coming to say hello to Boss Cao, and after saying hello, Boss Cao still couldn't stop talking. He finally got tired of talking, picked up the disposable glass cigarette holder, and smoked it with a soft cigarette.
Ji Ming saw that it was finally his turn to speak, and just as he wanted to open his mouth, Boss Cao waved his hand again, signaling him not to speak yet.
