The Banat team still took the initiative on the court and broke through the opponent's goal twice in the 61st and 85th minutes. The final score was fixed at 4:1, and the Banat team achieved a hearty victory.
After the game, David brought cash to express condolences to the players and coaching staff, while Sun Dahai took Gao Yi to the embassy to attend a reception held here.
The multi-party talks ended a few days ago, and on Wednesday, all parties signed a framework agreement. The next round of negotiations will be held in two weeks, when detailed negotiations will be conducted one-on-one.
On Wednesday night, Leon Group organized a celebration reception, and Sun Dahai also attended.
Today's reception was hosted by the Chinese Embassy in Britten. One of the themes was a farewell party for Director Ma and the others. They will fly back to the capital tomorrow morning.
When Sun Dahai and Gao Yi rushed to the embassy, Fan Zheng, who had arrived early, was waiting for them at the door. After everyone met, they entered the embassy together.
"Sun Dahai!"
As soon as Sun Dahai entered, he was called and his shoulder was tapped.
Sun Dahai looked back and was immediately happy. It turned out that the person behind him was Gao Ren, who took over Clivia from Decoration Life. The last time he and Sun Dahai met was when they had dinner together in New York in 1986. It has been three years since then.
years.
Time is really a butcher's knife!
Three years ago, Gao Ren was studying in college in the United States and looked like a playboy. Now he seems to have matured a lot and looks like a business elite.
"I asked where did such a beautiful woman come from. I was about to come over and strike up a conversation, but I found out that it was Gao Yi. I also saw you by the way. By the way, where is Xiao Hu? Why isn't he here?" Gao Ren
He deliberately looked unhappy and made fun of Sun Dahai and Gao Yi.
"I arranged for Hu Cheng to fly solo, so I can't let him be my assistant for the rest of his life." Sun Dahai replied with a smile.
The two of them had some friendship, and since they met, they walked aside and chatted about their respective situations.
Gao Ren graduated three months ago. After returning to China, he obtained qualifications from an import and export company under the Ministry of Foreign Trade. He usually did not need to go to the company, but was busy with the business of the Tianfu Investment Company he originally opened.
Tianfu Investment Company, under the leadership of General Manager Miao Renjie, has made him a lot of money in recent years. They mainly use their relationships to play quotas, so it is not difficult to make money.
Now Gao Ren came to London to discuss the coke business. The embassy happened to organize a cocktail party and invited people from the Chinese business community in London to attend.
Gao Ren has a close relationship with Minmetals. He obtained the coke quota from Minmetals, so he was also invited to attend the reception.
"Sun Dahai, you are well-known in the Chinese community in London, and you actually dare to spend 200 million pounds to play football club. I have only been in London for a few days, and many people are asking about you. By the way, newspapers
Why do they say you are from Xiangjiang?"
"My company is in Xiangjiang, so for the sake of convenience, I applied for permanent resident status in Xiangjiang. What about you, are you planning to focus on your official career in the future, or do you want to make money through business?"
"We're not sure yet, let's see how it develops in the future. Come, let me introduce you to some friends."
Gao Ren did not come alone. He also brought several friends from China to Britten, and they were all in the embassy at this time.
"This is Wang Yan, Xi Zhenbang, Wei Yuling, he is Sun Dahai, the person who bought the Britten Football Club."
Several of Gao Ren's friends were not very old, and two of them were obviously much younger than him. They looked similar to Sun Dahai, and they were all dressed in high-end clothes. They were definitely not children from ordinary families.
However, the people who can come to Britten these days are all related to their families, and they are probably the second and third generations like Gao Ren.
In fact, Sun Dahai should be considered a second-generation official, but he has already started his own business, so others do not count him among the second-generation officials.
There is a saying in the capital now that if one of the elders has a national title or a general rank when they were awarded honors in 1955, such people are considered the red N generation.
Those who come from the families of cadres at the actual department or department level, or the families of military personnel who are now with stars, are called the official N generation, or the military N generation. As for the children of county-level cadre families, they may be able to dominate the local area.
, don’t mention it in the capital.
In fact, second-generation officials like Sun Dahai are the main force in the capital. There are many ministries in the capital, and there are many department-level cadres who hold real power. When they reach the ministerial level or above, they have to avoid many things when acting.
Gao Ren is an example. His father works in the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and his rank is the same as that of Sun Weiguo. In the early years, Gao Ren relied on this kind of relationship to negotiate quotas, quotas or approval documents to make his fortune.
However, this is how the second generation of this era makes money. With the differences in the industries in which the family members work and their respective energies, large and small interest circles are naturally formed.
The families of the people Gao Ren introduced to Sun Dahai all worked in the foreign trade or banking system. They came to London with Gao Ren this time, just for fun. They mainly wanted to find a few suitable projects to work as agents and earn some pocket money.
money.
"Don't you all go to school? Being a product agent requires a lot of time and energy." Sun Dahai asked.
Wang Yan raised the corner of his mouth and smiled contemptuously. Gao Ren glared at him and quickly explained to Sun Dahai: "You are the one who actually runs the business yourself, so you don't understand how they make money.
They don't know how to do projects themselves, they just let the helpers around them take care of the business.
The state is becoming more and more strict about approval documents, quotas, etc., so they have begun to use agents for foreign products to sell them domestically. This routine has become very popular in recent years."
Sun Dahai understood.
Making money in this way requires more connections, and the requirements for other things are not high. And if you continue to do this, it will no longer be a short-term and fast project, but will become a long-term project. If you can really make it big, it will be quite profitable.
At this moment, a staff member from the embassy came over and said to Sun Dahai: "Mr. Sun, Director Ma said that if it is convenient for you now, he would like to talk to you."
"Okay, I'll go with you." Sun Dahai shrugged helplessly at Gao Ren, nodded to the three young men around him, and followed the staff upstairs with Gao Yi.
Gao Ren turned his head and said to Wang Yan in a low voice: "Xiao Yan, what's the matter with you? Let me tell you, although Sun Dahai is not old, he is not one of those guys in the circle who just sticks to him. His identity and background are absolutely different.
The business among us is huge, so you can't be too casual with him."
"Brother Ren, he doesn't even know the popular methods of making money in the industry, so what background can he have?" Wang Yan replied with some disdain.
"I...I'm too lazy to talk to you. He is different from us. He doesn't make a small amount of money from these things at all. Do you understand?"
