After returning home and picking up my bags, I missed the best time to leave the city. The traffic on the Second Ring Road was as congested as porridge, so I finally took my time and entered National Highway 103. However, I still crawled like a turtle until I got off the East Fourth Ring Road and entered Jingha.
On the high speed, it took an hour. That’s not all.
After finishing, we had just run less than half of the way. After passing Baodi, the Beijing-Harbin Expressway was repairing the road surface. The three lanes became one lane, and all the cars had to queue up to pass. This time, we were blocked for more than an hour.
When we arrived at the hotel, we had already missed lunch time and didn't make it.
"I shouldn't have brought you out, what's going on in your head! We agreed to eat seafood, but now we've changed to fast food! We have to pay for it ourselves, why am I so unlucky!" No matter how thick-skinned Hong Tao is,
He couldn't call Pan anymore to tell him that he hadn't eaten yet, so he could only buy some fast food to fill his stomach.
"It's okay, I'll go and tell Pan that we can eat it at night instead."
"You are a foodie. Give me some French fries. You will get fat easily if you eat so much. There will be a banquet in the evening, and all the big shots will be there. If you dare to lie down on the table and eat hazelnuts, I will buy you one.
I'll give you a train ticket back to Beijing to eat instant noodles. Drive!" Hong Tao grabbed the French fries from Katie's hand. The burger was a bit small and not quite filling.
"Then can I wear my new dress tonight?" Katie probably didn't have enough to eat either. She even asked Hong Tao to scold her. She was pouting and angry. When she heard that there was a banquet in the evening, she immediately turned sour.
Qingqing, she has good clothes but can't wear them to show off, which is her biggest pain.
"You can ask Pan what to wear later, but you have to remember one thing. From the moment you enter the hotel until you return to Beijing, you are Irene during this period. Do you understand? Also, don't speak Chinese, even if you understand
I pretended not to understand, remember it! This is your sister's business card. You are now Irene!" Hong Tao handed a business card holder to Katie. In such a formal occasion, you can't say that I brought my sister-in-law.
Joining in the fun, this is where the advantages of twins come into play, and they can change at any time.
"Don't worry. When I was in school, I often pretended to be Irene to go on dates, but Irene had a pink diamond ring, and I didn't..." Katie didn't care at all about pretending to be her sister, and stretched out her hand.
He took out his left hand and pointed at Hong Tao with his bare and rootless fingers.
"Indeed! Let's go to the mall later and buy two rings!" Hong Tao looked at his wedding ring. This was indeed a problem.
"I like bigger diamonds, can you buy me a one-carat one?" Katie smiled, showing her molars.
"Pure copper, silver-plated!" Hong Tao grinned.
"Stingy!" The smile on Katie's face disappeared immediately. She put the gear into the gear with a click, stepped on the accelerator and the car sped out. If Gao Miao saw her destroying his car so violently, he would probably borrow it next time.
Won't come out.
Hong Tao and Katie's room Pan has already been booked, an executive suite with a kitchen. It is on the 15th floor. Open the window and you will see Dongshan Bathhouse and Dongshan Park. Unfortunately, it is winter now, except for the cold sea breeze.
There is no view. Pan and her team live on the 12th floor. The reason why they spent more money to book an executive suite for Hong Tao is mainly because Hong Tao is a smoker and this is a non-smoking hotel. Only executive suites above the 12th floor are available.
Smoking.
Pan didn't let Hong Tao have too much rest time. As soon as the luggage was put away, she pulled Hong Tao to her team's station. There was a room here that had been converted into a temporary conference room, and a large bed was placed where the bed was.
The table is probably where she and her team usually discuss negotiation plans.
In this conference room, Hong Tao saw Pan at work for the first time. She was wearing a light-colored professional suit, a black silk shirt with a large pointed collar, black stockings, and the toes and heels of high-heeled shoes were the same as the triangular ones.
A level scraper, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses turned her originally playful short hair into a capable look, and the pair of big blue eyes behind the glasses were like a robot, giving it to you first without saying a word
A show of force.
In addition to Pan, there were two white Europeans and an Asian in the conference room. They were all over 40 or 50 years old. They were discussing issues related to urban planning and architecture. They were probably professionals in Pan's team, and
Hong Tao has nothing to do with him. The Asian man is Pan Mingbo, a Hong Kong national. He is the person in charge of graphic design in Pan's team. Pan mainly brought Hong Tao to see him.
"This... this is a bit too exaggerated!" When Pan Mingbo handed Hong Tao the plan that he had retyped, designed, and written, Hong Tao felt that he had instantly become a liar.
The central idea of this plan is still what Hong Tao gave Pan, but there is only one central idea left. In other aspects, whether it is from the renderings, text descriptions, long-term prospects or the thickness of the plan,
There is no comparison with Hong Tao's original plan. After reading this, Hong Tao no longer bothered to call the dozen or so pages he printed out a plan.
What Hong Tao is holding now is an 8-page album with over 40 pages thick, full-color illustrations, and beautifully printed on high-grade coated paper. From the first page is an introduction to Pan Hong Group, with total assets of more than 300 million euros. What?
The German ecological park, French winery, Danish land reclamation and other deeds are introduced, and then there is an introduction to the Panhong Group's office in Beijing. There are a lot of real objects and real-life photos printed, and there is only one word about the reservoir.
Not mentioned.
Looking back further, Hong Tao broke into a cold sweat. If it weren't for the words "Taolinkou Reservoir, Hebei Province" written on the reservoir dam, he would have thought he had arrived in Switzerland, not to mention the green mountains and clear water, melons, fruits and pears.
, that thing is reasonable, but there are snow-capped mountains next to the Taolingkou Reservoir! And why are there sailing ships in the reservoir? Could it be that Hong Tao has to be responsible for digging a reservoir to the mouth of the Bohai Sea?
"Mr. Hong, this is customary... Although yours is not a tender document, the meaning is almost the same... Necessary artistic processing is still necessary... Just grasp the main central idea... Look at us
What stands out is environmental protection, water resources protection, and green eco-tourism, which are not excessive at all!"
Pan Mingbo, speaking pure Cantonese Mandarin, began to explain the key points in this manual to Hong Tao. According to what he said, this was already a very restrained work of his. If it were not for the amount of investment in this project,
It was too small, so he thought it would be qualified to just bring the scenery on both sides of Lake Lucerne in Switzerland.
"Then where did this Pan Hong Group come from?" Hong Tao felt deceived when he saw the name of this group.
"This is not my job..." Pan Mingbo spread his hands and asked questions.
"This is a joint venture between you and me. It is headquartered in Beijing and has branches in Germany and France. It is very powerful! As the chairman of the company this time, you are specifically attracting foreign investment to come to the motherland to devote themselves to environmental protection.
." Hong Tao finally saw what it means to open his eyes this time.
Telling lies with a blind eye, and making yourself embarrassed not to believe it. Compared with Pan and Mr. Pan Mingbo just now, your ability to deceive and tell lies is nothing to mention, and it is not on the same level as others.
By deceiving the government, you are deceiving the children.
"I wonder if this is too big a deal for you. When you return to China, I will be the only one left. How will I end it?" Hong Tao flipped through the manual again in the elevator, still feeling very uneasy.
"Legal speaking, this group does exist. It is affiliated to a bank in Germany and has more than 10 shareholders. They are all European financial institutions. In fact, they are you and me. The assets are also real. It's just that
It's not for our use. Now the company's account in Beijing only has 8 million yuan. It's my first investment. The rest is for you.
Pay it yourself." Pan gave Hong Tao a brief introduction to the ins and outs of this group. Hong Tao relied on his financial knowledge from two generations, but he still didn't understand. Fixed assets can be used by several companies together? The registered capital can also be found.
The money can’t be used. How is this different from the small shops in front of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau that handle business licenses and registered capital?
"Why do I feel that you are not helping me invest, but helping my little lover play games!" Hong Tao didn't know whether he should be happy or happy while holding this plan that could make people stunned.
cry.
"If you agree to be my lover, I will give you an additional 5 million." Pan pinched Hong Tao's cheek, then stepped on two awls and twisted out of the elevator door.
"Do I look like a freeloader?" Hong Tao followed behind, still looking for confidence in himself.
"Eating soft rice? Are you talking about those European artists? What's wrong with that? They have talent, I have funds, this should be regarded as talent investment. But you are definitely not eating soft rice, because you can't even perform symphony
I don’t understand. You are too far away from the artist. Just memorize these things and remember the key points. I will introduce you to the mayor and other officials here at the cocktail party in the evening.
"Comrade, you can't be ignorant at all when the time comes. Oh, Katie, do you think my newly bought shirt is beautiful? Come let me hug you and see if you've gained weight again!" As soon as he entered Hong Tao's guest room, Pan and Deformed
He changed his appearance like King Kong, kicked off his high heels, threw away his coat, and stopped wearing his gold-rimmed glasses. He rolled on the sofa with Katie in his arms and started tossing, you scratch me and I'll scratch you.
"Come and help me choose a dress for the evening. I still need a ring and Hong Tao won't buy it for me!" Katie pulled Pan into the bedroom as if she were meeting a relative, and even sued Hong Tao.
"Ignore him, I will take you to buy something later and swipe his card! Hahahaha." Pan and Katie's sinister laughter came from the bedroom. (To be continued...)
