May 8th is an auspicious day according to Chinese people’s habits and just from the numbers. I wonder if there is a master’s guidance, so Pearl International Plaza chooses this day to open its doors. The two-hundred-meter-high main building is decorated with lights and festoons along both sides of the main building.
Dozens of banners are also hung on the podium that unfolds in a V-shape on the side.
The square in front of the building was crowded with people, and many police officers worked hard to maintain order. The mayor came to cut the ribbon in person. The scene was truly extraordinary. A string of black cars drove into the venue. The top executives of the Wall Street ycv investment company headed by Anna and the Pearl headed by Xiao Ruoshui
The senior management of the group showed up first, followed closely by a series of cars with government license plates.
Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and Mayor Wang Yun appeared and waved to the crowd surrounded by dozens of people. Immediately, the crowd burst into shouts of "Hello, Mayor!"
In an official-based society that has lasted for thousands of years, the common people's respect and fear for officials will not be completely destroyed by decades of reform and opening up, not to mention that Wang Yun is a good official with a good reputation.
The atmosphere at the scene was warm and reasonable.
Anna and Xiao Ruoshui greeted Wang Yun and his entourage on behalf of the Mingzhu Group, shook hands, and exchanged warm greetings. Then, amid the roar of salutes, the ribbon-cutting officially began.
Afterwards, two celebrities from CCTV took the stage.
The crowd of onlookers shouted loudly, and the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic. Until many celebrities led by Qin Bingbing appeared and sang songs, the entire event reached its peak.
Yang Chen and Nalan Tongtong squeezed to the front of the crowd. The cordon formed by the police and security prevented the two from moving forward. Xiao Nizi stood on tiptoes and looked around. Qin Bingbing was her favorite artist, not really.
I admire her, I just really like the characters Qin Bingbing plays on the screen.
It's a bit like loving the house and the bird.
For example, she likes Sun Honglei, mostly because the tough guy character on the screen is deeply rooted in people's hearts. However, since meeting Yang Chen, her admiration for Sun Honglei has been greatly reduced.
The tough guy created based on the script is a bit fake after all.
He is far different from the bloody men who fight with real swords and guns.
Compared with Nalan Tongtong, Yang Chen behaved very calmly. Whether it was the mayor cutting the ribbon or the celebrities supporting him, he seemed to be calm and calm. His calmness was much more calm than his peers. At this time, no one understood his inner feelings.
Agitated, including Nalan Tongtong.
After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the city government leaders took a tour of the largest shopping, leisure and entertainment center in Xijing so far. Of course, all this had nothing to do with Yang Chen. He accompanied Nalan Tongtong and poured into the commercial building with the crowd. In the first week of the Pearl's opening,
Shopping, entertainment, and dining are all 50% off, and there are gifts for everyone. Almost no woman can resist this naked temptation, and Nalan Tongtong, who is rich and powerful, is no exception.
"Sir, this is a special invitation letter from our Pearl Group. With this letter, you can attend tonight's VIP reception and enjoy a free night in the five-star suite of the Pearl Hotel."
Nalan Tongtong was dragging Yang Chen straight to the LV store, wanting to pick a belt for the playboy beside her. A capable staff member in a neat suit hurriedly caught up and handed Yang Chen a beautiful letter.
"Why not give it to us?"
"Yeah, why don't we?"
Yang Chen and Nalan Tongtong didn't have time to speak. Many people around them started shouting at the staff. The staff quickly apologized and explained repeatedly that special invitations were limited and not everyone had them. Half of the people who gathered around were helpless.
After they dispersed, half of them were still questioning and refusing to give in. Asking for gifts more confidently than buying things made the staff dumbfounded.
"I've always had good luck."
Yang Chen glanced at the dissatisfied crowd, jokingly waving the invitation in his hand. Xiao Nizi rolled her eyes at him, said coquettishly, then walked to the LV store with her man on her arm, obviously treating the special invitation as a limited quantity randomly distributed.
Gifts are not taken seriously at all.
The LV store in Mingzhu Shopping Plaza was overcrowded, which was a spectacle for Xijing, whose spending power is far less than that of first-tier metropolitan areas.
It should be able to create an astonishing daily sales data... Yang Chen secretly calculated, with a smile on his handsome face. The performance of top brands like LV is good, which is enough to add icing on the cake to the pearl.
Xiao Nizi picked out a 7,000-yuan belt for Yang Chen, and then the two of them went to the dining center on the sixth floor for lunch and watched a movie on the seventh floor in the afternoon.
After coming out of the cinema, it was almost time for the cocktail party in the evening. With a hint of curiosity, Xiao Nizi accompanied Yang Chen to leave the shopping mall and walked into the Pearl Hotel. The waiter guided him up to the third floor and signed in at the door of a luxurious banquet hall.
When Xiao Nizi walked into the banquet hall holding Yang Chen's arm, she was slightly startled, and then suddenly realized that this invitation was by no means a random gift.
There are nearly two hundred people in the magnificent banquet hall, two-thirds of whom belong to prominent political and business figures in Xijing. As a woman of the Nalan family, Nalan Tongtong will not miss it.
"Husband, something doesn't seem right." Nalan Tongtong wondered and tightened Yang Chen's arm slightly nervously. After discovering the clue, Xiao Nizi was a little at a loss. Yang Chen gently patted Xiao Nizi's arm.
The hands on his arms and his head held high as he walked into the banquet hall, he looked nothing like a child from a grassroots family.
"I saw Yueyue's dad...my dad is here too..." Nalan Tongtong whispered, not too surprised this time. Yueyue's dad is a real estate boss in Xijing, and her old
Dad Nalanhai is a top-notch person, so it is reasonable for him to appear here, and there is nothing surprising.
When Nalan Hai saw his precious daughter and Yang Chen, who left a good impression on him, he was slightly surprised. Several old friends around him looked at Yang Chen with great interest.
"Tongtong, Xiao Yang, why are you two here?"
"Someone from the Pearl Group gave Yang Chen an invitation letter out of nowhere. We stopped by to take a look. We didn't expect it to be so lively here."
Nalan Tongtong explained the cause and effect. Nalan Hai nodded. There was still a trace of doubt in his heart. Several old friends smiled disapprovingly. It was normal for the Pearl Group to invite Nalan Hai's daughter. After all, Nalan's family was in Xijing.
Its influence on the entire province is extraordinary.
"Since you are here, you will accompany Xiao Yang for a walk and say hello to his uncles." Nalan Hai smiled kindly when he spoke, making no secret of his doting on his daughter. Finally, his eyes fell on Yang Chen, and he nodded slightly, with deep meaning.
.
After hearing this, several old friends of Nalan Hai looked at Yang Chen again, their eyes changing more or less. They knew very well that Nalan Hai's warning to his daughter was nothing more than paving the way for the unknown Yang Chen.
These prominent political and business figures in the banquet hall are not something that any young person who is just starting out can expect to meet, let alone exchange pleasantries with each other.
Nalan Hai attaches great importance to this young man!
Several people arrived at the same result.
Nalan Tongtong and Yang Chen politely stood with Nalan Hai and others for a while, then picked up the red wine brought by the waiter and walked away. At this time, many people thought that Yang Chen's appearance at this high-end cocktail party was because of Nalan Hai's influence.
The bright light includes Xiao Hongbo in the inconspicuous corner.
The situation today was special, and the Pearl Hotel had not yet fully manned the hotel, so Xiao Hongbo was sent to help. By chance, he saw Yang Chen and Nalan Tongtong appear hand in hand.
The soft rice king...Xiao Hongbo cursed in his heart.
At this time, several celebrities who performed on stage during the day were surrounded by a group of people and walked into the banquet hall. Qin Bingbing took a look at the tall and handsome Yang Chen, and a smile suddenly appeared in her beautiful eyes.
