To manage high-end connections, in addition to having money, good taste, good humor, and understanding of etiquette, you also need to have a solid "base" - a base camp that can attract celebrities, that is, you must have a place where you can make a difference.
There is no fixed base, no well-established venue, and existing "connections" are easily lost.
Therefore, Peng Bo's courtyard house in the capital is such a place.
Because friends, especially big friends, need to call them out every once in a while to get together to continue to show off their talents and at the same time enhance the friendship between the two parties.
In this regard, Zheng Yongcan can be regarded as a master and his master.
Not to mention the guild halls in Beijing and Xiangjiang, the high-end restaurant "China Tang" he opened in London invites all his famous friends to come regularly to taste Chinese food.
At the same time, his business covers business, fashion, media, literature and art - these high-end career platforms give him enough economic foundation and social network to make friends with celebrities from all walks of life and maintain high-end connections.
…
In central London, in a luxury hotel, the signboard of "China Tang" is full of Chinese culture.
The decoration style of the restaurant is gorgeous and elegant. It is also based on traditional Chinese art and incorporates Western art style, integrating fine wine and food into an elegant and comfortable environment.
Peng Bo looked at today's menu, traditional Beijing hanging oven roast duck, baked pork chops with nine kinds of tangerine peel, purple ginger and dried fruit glutinous rice balls, candied osmanthus abalone, red wine sauce apple buckle with palace bone,...honey sauce barbecued pork, Huadiao protein steamed crab
Pliers...
These dishes are basically exquisite dishes from Guangdong, Sichuan and Beijing.
"Abo, I heard that your father-in-law is running your winery?" Zheng Yongfang's words are always so comfortable, no matter in tone or gesture.
"Yes, give the old man a place to live in his old age." Peng Bo said with a smile. Heinwei is the most beautiful gift God has given him, so what he wants to give back to Heinwei's parents is a winery.
Can the problem be solved? He gently shook Heinwei's hand beside him, and Heinwei smiled softly.
"It seems that you and your father-in-law get along very well. I know him well." Zheng Yongfang lit a cigar. "From the first moment I saw you, I determined that we have common characteristics and careers.
They are all similar, and they are all the kind of people who like to make friends very much. Yes, they make friends all over the world..."
Peng Bo also smiled. Make friends all over the world and count the money in the world like crazy. This is his motto.
"Hello, Kevin."
Peng Bo did not expect that the first person ushered in by the waiter was not an Englishman, but American actor Kevin Spacey.
Although Peng Bo is quite controversial about his personal life, his acting skills in "House of Cards" are amazing. "Kevin, thank you for flying over from the United States."
Kevin Spacey and Kevin Cheng hugged each other tightly. They seemed to be old friends.
"Let me introduce, Donald, my...brother," Zheng Yongfang introduced Peng Bo, "the president of China Pengbo Media, and also served as the president of Greater China for your Time Warner... Heinwei..."
"Hello." Kevin Spacey kissed Heinway's hand, but he didn't know Peng Bo's name, but he was very polite. President Kinoshita seemed very friendly at this time.
"Welcome," Peng Bo shook hands with Spacey, "Actually, I am a fan of your movies, and I am deeply impressed by your American Beauty..."
"Oh," Spacey's smile grew wider, "You also have a beauty beside you, a British beauty..."
Several people laughed.
Kevin Spacey seemed to be very familiar with this place. He smoked a Cuban cigar comfortably, and other guests continued to arrive.
Peng Bo discovered that on such occasions, Zheng Yongfang spoke with a loud voice, often had spicy and witty remarks, was humorous, and had constant "baggage". These were qualities valued by the British "upper class" and were very helpful for him to win the local government.
Acceptance and recognition by celebrities.
"Let me introduce..." With his recommendation, Peng Bo and Heinwei officially entered the most important circle in the UK and got acquainted with the most important people in the UK at this time.
Former Prime Minister John Major, former Hong Kong Governor Patten, Oxford University President Hamilton, former Google Chairman Eric Schmidt, supermodel Kate Moss, "Black Pearl" Naomi Campbell, "Downton"
"Manor" creator Julian Fellowes...
The Duchess of York, Princess Eugenie, as well as a large number of dukes, marquises and lifelong nobles, as well as the famous British actor Jeremy Irons, the famous British actress Gwyneth Paltrow...
The total number of people who came today has exceeded 100. In one moment, there were hundreds of responses, and all the stars gathered together, "Brother Scandium, your connections are too wide." Peng Bo whispered.
"This is because everyone is giving me face." Zheng Yongcan said with a normal smile.
"Oh, let me introduce you to the distinguished guest tonight." A middle-aged woman walked in from outside. Zheng Yongfang glanced at Peng Bo, and the three of them greeted her. "Hi, Cherie, long time no see."
Oh, Peng Bo and Heinwei looked at each other, and Blair's wife, Cherie Blair, was actually here too.
"Long time no see? It's only been two weeks," Cherry said with a smile on her face, "But two weeks is too long. I miss you very much." The two hugged gently and immediately separated.
Zheng Yongfeng smiled more peacefully, "Let me introduce, this is Donald, the president of China's Pengbo Media. Pengbo Media will be our China's Time Warner in the future..."
Cherry seemed very cautious, but she still smiled and extended her hand.
"I think you should know Heinwei, her father..." Zheng Yongfang said with a smile. Many of the guests just now have tasted the sparkling wine of Granberg Manor. His father-in-law's connections in the UK are really not great.
of.
"Oh, I heard that you went to China," Cherry immediately became enthusiastic. With Heinwei's endorsement, her attitude towards Peng Bo also became enthusiastic. "We may go to China next month. I look forward to our visit there."
Meet in China.”
Heinwei immediately smiled and said, "I am now in Shanghai, China. I believe this city will be unforgettable for you. If you come to Shanghai, I can accompany you to visit the scenic spots here..."
Women are all born diplomats. Cherie and Heinwei chatted very well, and Zheng Yongcan couldn't help but flex his thumb.
Peng Bo smiled. Children from such a family are no stranger to such occasions.
"Brother Scandium, why do you have so many friends?" The two of them walked inside, and while they were free, Peng Bo asked.
"Ah Bo, my favorite British quote is: "Taking makes a living, giving makes a living."" Zheng Yongfeng shared his experience in communication.
Oh, Peng Bo understands, maybe it is this principle of making friends that makes his big friends feel "owing" to him.
"Hi, I'm late..." A middle-aged man walked in. He seemed to be familiar with the friends here. Cherry looked at him cordially and waved to him.
