It goes without saying that the Peace Hotel’s status in Shengtan Beach is that Jinggao often dines here, but he has never stayed here.
This kind of old hotel has too much age and old-school British style. He doesn't like it very much. Maybe he is a "nouveau riche" and doesn't like the so-called old money style, but likes new items and the ultimate experience provided by new technology.
.
The waiter smiled all the way and led Jinggao and his party to the "Sassoon Pavilion" on the 10th floor.
Zhang Li, Gu Xixi, Dugu Jing, and Chen Aiyang all stayed outside the banquet hall. Zhou Mingyang's confidant driver and bodyguard Zou Xiujie was also waiting outside.
Secretary Ma is a middle-aged man in his thirties. He wears glasses and has a warm smile on his face, but his words are not so pleasant. He leads Jing Gao to Sassoon Pavilion and says, "Mr. Jing, what are you doing?"
It’s a bit grand! She’s a beauty, an assistant, and a bodyguard.”
Chen Aiyang was wearing a black suit and the way he walked, you could tell he was a bodyguard at a glance.
Jinggao ignored Secretary Ma and looked at the famous Sassoon Pavilion on the beach. It was originally the private bedroom and study room of "Sassoon", but now it has been converted into a banquet hall. The overall style is British: deep colors, decoration
gorgeous.
He didn't know which era of British style it was more specifically.
"Mr. Jing, welcome." Director Guan is an old man of nearly sixty years old. He is of medium height, wearing work clothes, with a slender face and glasses. He shakes hands with Jing Gao without any pretense and invites him to sit down.
There was a large round table in the banquet hall. Zhou Mingyang was wearing a navy blue suit. The forty-seven-year-old middle-aged man looked extremely handsome.
When he saw Jing Gao coming in, he smiled and nodded in greeting. He was calm and relaxed, looking very relaxed, even a little bit like he was at home, and his current worrying situation was not visible at all.
Director Guan sat down, Secretary Ma poured the tea thoughtfully, and then quietly left. Director Guan picked up the tea cup and sipped it, giving the two of them some time to digest the embarrassment and emotion of sitting at the same table again after many days.
The waiter pushed the dining cart in and delivered delicious Western food. It included: pan-fried foie gras with tomato jam, vanilla cod, lobster bisque, smoked New Zealand king salmon, Australian Wagyu beef tenderloin, roasted tomato cream soup, and pan-fried smoked salmon.
Desserts after the meal include: apple tart and chocolate brownie.
There are other Western dishes that are paired with the meal, and the wine selection is Changyu Moser Legend Cabernet Sauvignon. This white wine has won many awards and is quite well-known in the circle.
Director Guan gave a slight greeting to the waiter who had placed the dishes, and after waiting for him to leave, he said: "Both of you are leaders in our Chinese business community, outstanding among people, and outstanding business talents!
I am the host this time because I hope that the two of you can turn their differences into friendship. One is to retain talents for the domestic business community, and the other is to stabilize economic development and avoid creating a situation that is not conducive to unity.
Okay, let’s talk while you two eat, and I’ll go take care of some official business while waiting for the good news from you two.”
With that said, Director Guan pulled out his chair and stood up.
Jing Gao and Zhou Mingyang both stood up to see each other off. Director Guan waved his hand and took Secretary Ma to the "Sassoon Suite" on the 10th floor to rest.
"Mr. Jing, I haven't seen you for a while!" Zhou Mingyang smiled and stretched out his hand to make a gesture, inviting Jing Gao to take a seat. Like a master, he picked up the white wine and took a sip first, admiring the complexity and exquisiteness of the Sassoon Pavilion.
The pattern showed the luxury and taste of the British aristocracy. Finally, his eyes fell on Jing Gao's face, and he was sincerely disgusted with this ordinary face. "Look, there is no problem. You can drink it with confidence."
Jing Gao was unmoved and looked at Zhou Mingyang with a calm expression. He was really worried that Zhou Mingyang would tamper with the food. Who could say for sure about this kind of thing? Zhou Mingyang, a rich man who is dying but not dead, must be able to do it.
Something.
These days, rich people all over the world die in very strange ways. Some of them have brakes that failed and they reversed into the pond and drowned, some of them were strangled to death by a rope while doing yoga, and some of them fell to death while taking photos. High-end
Business wars are poisoned, and so on.
He cherishes his life very much.
He is only thirty years old this year and still has a lot of time to enjoy life.
Zhou Mingyang shrugged, with a very chic demeanor, which showed how comfortable he was in the mall in the past. He put down the wine glass in his hand and said: "Mr. Jing, since you don't want to eat, let's get down to business.
!
Before we start talking, let me make two points. First, Mingyuan Group has sold its gaming business to Alibaba and has received US$70 million this afternoon. An announcement was made on our official website.
??????55.??????
Second, don't feel lucky in your heart. Director Guan didn't host our dinner because he didn't want to live up to his words, but he wanted us to reach a reconciliation. He made it clear just now, right?
Come and tell us your terms of reconciliation!"
Zhou Mingyang's attitude of "talking about reconciliation" was a little high. Jing Gao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Alas..." It has to be said that Zhou Mingyang saw it quite accurately, and exposed the luck mentality in his heart from the beginning.
What was he thinking about?
What he has been thinking about today is that Director Guan may not support Zhou Mingyang. What happened to the two decades of friendship? Prime Minister Bai Zhiyu presses the sword!
If Director Guan can come forward to organize this dinner, he is already very worthy of Zhou Mingyang. Otherwise, why would he come back to talk to Zhou Mingyang? Why not just take action? Now, Director Guan has dignity and face, is it necessary to go to great lengths to protect Zhou Mingyang?
If this is the case, then he can kill Zhou Mingyang!
It is a continuation of Xiaoli's idea: get things done first, and then repair the relationship. After all, the offense is not deep.
Isn't it like this in the American TV series "House of Cards"? Underwood usually settles things first and then talks about repairing the relationship.
However, Director Guan obviously supported Zhou Mingyang.
There is no chance of getting lucky!
Jing Gao calmed down and said calmly: "I don't know what the transaction between Ali and you is like. I don't know whether there is any money in your account.
I want Mingyuan Group’s gaming, chip design, battery research and development, and investment businesses. Yao Shengming wants real estate, ocean transportation, and finance.”
Zhou Mingyang laughed angrily, patted the table and said: "The main business of Mingyuan Group is the businesses you mentioned. If this is the case, then it is better to split up Mingyuan Group!"
Jing Gao looked at the forty-seven-year-old Zhou Mingyang's expressions of joy and anger, trying to figure out what this man was thinking. His acting skills were obvious, but he was really better than his sister Zhou Shiqing. Ma De, since he became a powerful person, he has become like this
This was the first time he was dumped by a beautiful woman. He asked: "What about your conditions?"
Zhou Mingyang said rudely: "Mingyuan Group cannot be split. I can sell 60% of Mingyuan Group shares to you, but the management rights of Mingyuan Group must be in my hands. We can discuss the specific plan."
This condition made Jing Gao sneer, and said calmly: "Mr. Zhou, if one day you hold my hand, would you agree to only take 60% of Phoenix Group's shares?
In other words, you are treating me like a child and fooling me, right? If the major shareholders cannot control the company, they may not be able to benefit. Since you are so insincere, let's stop talking here!"
With that said, Jing Gao stood up and prepared to leave.
"Wait!" Zhou Mingyang stopped Jing Gao smoothly and said seriously: "What do you mean by holding my hand? I made it very clear that I have received 70 million US dollars in transaction funds. Mingyuan Group's funds
The crisis has been resolved!
You don’t believe it, right? Wait, I’ll ask someone to verify it for you.”
Jing Gao tested Zhou Mingyang's "attitude", so he left in no hurry. He stood at the round table and gestured to Zhou Mingyang to "self-certify". He took his personal mobile phone and sent a message to Guo Lingyu overseas.
The asymmetry in strength is reflected in this scene.
He only needed to use "go" to immediately knock down the "arrogance" Zhou Mingyang deliberately displayed.
Because this involves a fundamental question: Who needs "peace talks" now?
He is not needed.
At the same time, he was also confused at this moment: Since Zhou Mingyang really received 70 million US dollars to make up for the gap in the capital chain, why did he still need to reconcile with him? Could it be that Mingyuan Group has other hidden dangers?
Zhou Mingyang called his confidant driver and bodyguard Zou Xiujie in, who brought a tablet computer. Zhou Mingyang logged into the Shanghai Pudong Development Bank software on the tablet computer and showed the account balance to Jing Gao: "
This is the basic account of Mingyuan Group, and all corporate finance companies that have done business with us should know it. Can you check the balance in it? You can find someone to check the status of this account now. I'll wait."
Seeing such "sincere" Zhou Mingyang, Jing Gao couldn't help but laugh.
