Twelve tables were originally prepared for the thank-you banquet of the Han brothers and sisters, but in the end only five tables came to eat.
Fang Dahang was a little depressed. You must know that the business of Shangyuan Garden has been booming recently, and it is usually hard to find a restaurant. Today, seven tables were empty for the funeral of Mrs. Han. According to the rules, you have to pay for the cold dishes, but Zhang Chi decided to give the money for the cold dishes.
If you waive the fee, the entire table will be refunded and only the meal for five tables will be charged.
Fang Dahang felt unhappy and did not dare to say anything. He saw an opportunity and said to Zhang Chi: "There are seven empty tables at noon. It seems that this old lady does not have many relatives and friends."
Zhang Chi said: "Dean Han was a very good person. He was famous all over the world. Many people went to the memorial service without much publicity, but most of them were busy with their careers and couldn't spare time to have a meal."
Fang Dahang nodded.
Wang Meng came closer and said, "Brother, why isn't my sister here?" He asked Bai Xiaomi.
Zhang Chi said with a smile: "Your sister has gone out to practice and won't be back until about ten days."
"What is training?"
Fang Dahangdao: "It's almost like taking a dump."
Wang Meng glared at him: "You are a big liar, you can pull this off for ten days in a row."
Zhang Chi and Fang Dahang laughed together. Zhang Chi patted Wang Meng's generous shoulder and asked him to go back and work a few more times to see him off. Of course Wang Meng was fine. Looking at Wang Meng's happy expression, Zhang Chi couldn't help but sigh, this kid is also pitiful.
He is the son of Bai Wuya and Huang Chunli. The master should be protecting him. Even though he knew the truth, he did not dare to recognize his mother and son. As for Bai Wuya, he is definitely not a good person. If the Bai family is a demon clan,
Then Wang Meng is a mixed race, no wonder Bai Xiaomi is so kind to him, she is his cousin.
Han Nianci came over with Ye Ximei at this time. The two of them got along very well. Zhang Chi found that Ye Ximei was really good at emotional intelligence and had good interpersonal skills.
Han Nianci proposed to settle the bill, and Fang Dahang took her to do it in person. After a while, he came back with a smile on his face.
Zhang Chi said: "Is there a discount?"
Fang Dahang said happily: "After charging for five tables, the rest were refunded, and the overall price was 20% off. She booked ten more tables, and signed a cooperation agreement with us. There will be a large-scale meeting next month.
We went to the Meat Garden as the designated reception unit. The three-day meeting is expected to have at least a hundred tables, and the deposit has been paid."
"Meeting? What meeting?" Zhang Daxian was confused.
Fang Dahang scratched the back of his head: "We run a restaurant and we only entertain people for dinner. What kind of meetings do they hold have anything to do with us?"
Zhang Chi nodded.
Ye Ximei said, "Zhang Chi, I have something I want to talk to you about."
Zhang Chi knew that she wanted to talk alone, so he took Ye Ximei to his office in the garden. This office was rarely used, but it was cleaned every day. It was clean inside and the furnishings were antique. See you through the window.
View, through the window you can see the colorful vegetation in the yard, it is late autumn, a colorful time.
Ye Ximei came to the room and said, "That's good. I didn't expect that Shangmei Garden has such an elegant room."
Zhang Chi said: "I usually keep it for drinking tea and playing cards."
Ye Ximei closed the door with her backhand. Zhang Chi's heart was pounding. He knew this god-sister's enthusiasm, but this place wasn't suitable either.
Ye Ximei closed the window again and looked outside.
Zhang Chi just pretended not to see it and went to boil water to make tea.
Ye Ximei asked, "How much do you know about the Han brothers and sisters?"
Zhang Chi shook his head and then realized that Ye Ximei didn't mean that. He was overthinking. He brewed a pot of white peony and poured a cup for Ye Ximei. Ye Ximei took a sip of tea and said: "Five-dimensional brain"
Do you know the domain?”
Zhang Chi nodded. Five-Dimensional Brain was a company that researched brain technology during Lin Chaolong's lifetime. After Lao Lin's death, Five-Dimensional Brain was acquired by Chu Canghai.
Ye Ximei said: "They want to sue the company for its five-dimensional brain domain."
Zhang Chi said: "The inheritance lawsuit turned into an infringement lawsuit?"
Ye Ximei said with eyebrows: "If it is proven that the five-dimensional brain domain infringes, then Chu Canghai's acquisition was illegal, and it may even be traced back to Lin Chaolong, and it may also implicate Lin Chaolong's successor."
Zhang Chi finally understood what Ye Ximei's concerns were. He thought about it and said, "As far as I know, Lin Chaolong and Han Dachuan were in a cooperative relationship back then. Academician Han Dachuan helped Lin Chaolong design a set of intelligent programs for brain treatment.
In return, Lin Chaolong sponsored Academician Han Dachuan's experimental center and provided financial support. After Academician Han Dachuan's death, he continued to sponsor it for many years and never interfered with the research of the life field system."
Ye Ximei said: "Then it is this intelligent brain treatment system that they want to sue for infringement?"
Zhang Chi said: "I don't know the specific situation, but you can contact Lin Daiyu. She should know more about this matter." He could understand Ye Ximei's difficulties. Ye Ximei was Lin Daiyu's legal adviser.
If you accept the commission from the Han brothers and sisters, you will most likely face a situation where you will fight against yourself in the future.
Ye Ximei said: "I have backed down now. If they really want to pursue the Five-Dimensional Brain Domain, I will definitely avoid suspicion."
Zhang Chi said: "You'd better communicate with Lin Daiyu and see what she says." He thought Lin Daiyu was still in the country.
Ye Ximei said: "That's the only way. If this happens, I have no choice but to withdraw. I can transfer the case to others."
Zhang Chi said: "The legal fees are quite high, right?"
Ye Ximei laughed: "There are quite a few, but one thing I'm particularly curious about is how they knew some of the business secrets. Has Dean Han ever participated in the research and development of the five-dimensional brain?"
Zhang Chi shook his head and said: "Dean Han is quite noble. With her temperament, it is impossible for her to associate with businessmen."
"That means someone inside the five-dimensional brain has leaked the secret." Ye Ximei bit her lips and hesitated to speak.
Zhang Chi saw that she had something to say and said softly: "What do you have to say and are you hiding it from me?"
Ye Ximei said: "I also discovered that among the friends of the Han family brother and sister who are here today, there are two barristers who are above me in terms of prestige and ability. Why did they choose me?"
Zhang Chi said: "I recommended it." He also felt that this matter was unreasonable. If the Han brothers and sisters had lawyer friends, why should they recommend it? Did they know about Ye Ximei a long time ago? Think about this matter carefully
I'm afraid, he doesn't know many lawyers, so the first person who comes to mind when asked to recommend him is of course Ye Ximei. He has to think about this matter carefully.
Ye Ximei asked, "Do you know what meeting they are going to hold?"
"Is it related to the research results of Academician Han Dachuan?"
Ye Ximei nodded.
Zhang Chi closed his eyes. When Lin Chaolong died, Lin Daiyu was facing embarrassment from all sides. It was he who recommended Ye Ximei to her and became Lin Daiyu's legal advisor. Now the Han family siblings are fighting an inheritance lawsuit.
Ye Ximei put down the tea cup and said: "This case is very complicated, and it will involve many retrospective rights protection in the future."
Zhang Chi said: "Do Lin Daiyu and the Han brothers and sisters know each other?"
Ye Ximei blinked: "Do you suspect they are joining forces?"
Zhang Chi said nothing, but this hypothesis was the most reasonable and possible. Lin Daiyu, as the sole heir of Lin Chaolong, must know the core secrets of the five-dimensional brain, and she also knew her relationship with Ye Ximei.
The Han brothers and sisters used the banner of defending their rights, but their real target was Chu Canghai's new world brain, and Lin Chaolong died under the joint efforts of Chu Canghai and Qin Junqing.
Zhang Chi did not tell Ye Ximei these things. He is not sure yet. He needs to verify. If his inference is true, then he will not let Ye Ximei be involved in this matter.
Zhang Chi reached out and patted the back of her hand, and whispered: "I will find out about this matter as soon as possible."
Ye Ximei said, "I'm leaving now. I'll contact you if there is any news."
Zhang Chi sent Ye Ximei away, and after thinking about it, he called Lin Daiyu directly.
Lin Daiyu's cell phone was open, but she didn't answer the call, and she obviously adopted a strategy of ignoring Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi tried other contact methods and found that he had been blocked by her. It was amazing! If Lin Daiyu's return to China was used as a central point, and then the events were written out one by one, they would eventually be linked to her, even Xu Dingding.
She can also be contacted in financial cases. On the surface, the troubles of these people have nothing to do with her, but so many people are in trouble at the same time, it is difficult to explain it by coincidence.
Yang Qinggong knocked on the door and came in, smiling: "Mr. Zhang, why are you alone? I didn't disturb you, did I?"
Zhang Chi said: "No, I'm in a daze."
Yang Qinggong said: "By the way, the private room of Shaorou Life has been arranged for you."
Zhang Chi only remembered having dinner with Qi Guoguo tonight after being reminded by him. He patted his forehead and said, "Thank you for reminding me. I'm so busy today that I'm confused."
Yang Qinggong wanted to report to him on the recent business situation. Zhang Chi poured him a cup of tea. Yang Qinggong only said a few words, but Zhang Chi told him to keep the story short. He didn't care about the specific business operations.
Yang Qinggong said: "One more thing is the Jianghu Guild Hall opposite us."
"Didn't you take down the Jia Mansion night banquet?"
Yang Qinggong said: "Originally, I said that we had already negotiated, but somehow it got messed up again."
Zhang Chi said: "You want to take it down?"
Yang Qinggong smiled and said: "I made a plan, take a look."
Zhang Chi took it and looked at it: "Brother Yang, you are going to open a hotel."
Yang Qinggong said: "Fang Dahang and I made a summary and found that the place is very suitable for a special hotel that relies on culture. Moreover, our catering has been perfected. The two sides are linked. Our side is not far from the entrance of the subway station. They used to go there
It never started because it was going in the wrong direction."
Zhang Chi found the planned investment, looked at the investment amount, and stuck out his tongue, five hundred million! This is still an estimate.
Zhang Chi said: "I don't have that much money."
Yang Qinggong said: "I just have a preliminary idea. You should take a closer look to see if it is feasible. Anyway, we won't be able to sell the place opposite us for a while."
