Chapter 1310 Special Treatment

In real life, nothing can be done just right.

In most cases, people die from drought or flood.

Even if you think it is right at the beginning, the final result is often beyond your expectations.

Just like Ning Weimin, in the process of participating in the hotel management company, he also recruited these shed craftsmen under his command, established a small company, and monopolized a craft.

The operating mechanism of this world is that no matter whether it is wealth or any other resources, as long as they reach a certain level, they will produce a siphon effect like a natural magnetic field.

You can easily gather more and more wealth around you and have more and more opportunities to make money.

This is what is called financial luck, and this is the secret of why rich people become richer.

This is true for both individuals and companies.

Sometimes, even if you don't want it, someone will still force it into your arms.

June 1987, 6, Grain in Ear.

At the invitation of Song Huagui over the phone, Ning Weimin took Matsumoto Keiko to meet him.

The Mercedes-Benz car sent by Song Huagui to pick up Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko drove on Chang'an Avenue, and finally circled under the Dabeiyao Bridge, passed the China World Trade Center, and stopped in front of a building adjacent to it.

In fact, when the Mercedes-Benz was still across the street, Ning Weimin noticed from afar that the building belonging to Pierre Cattan was very different from what he saw at the beginning of the year.

He looked at the huge neon words "Pierre Catton International Hotel" above the hotel, and parallel to it, the foundation of another identical building was rising from the ground, and it had already reached four or five floors.

He couldn't help but think proudly in his heart - let's not talk about anything else, just because I used the exchange rate difference to earn the company these two buildings, I can be considered worthy of the company and Sister Song. I think in the next 20 years, the two buildings here will at least be worth tens of billions. Just for this, no matter how extravagant I am, no matter how proud I am, I am afraid that no one in the company will dare to say "no" to me.

For this reason, his heart was filled with an inexplicable sense of satisfaction and superiority, just like a general returning to the capital city he had captured for inspection, feeling a little inflated.

But even so, he did not expect that the welcoming ceremony that followed would be so warm and could be described as grand.

When the waiter in a doorman's uniform and white gloves opened the car door for him, there were actually more than a dozen young men and women in hotel uniforms waiting at the door, running over to give them flowers.

In an instant, both Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko were surrounded by blooming flowers, and through the swaying flower buds, Ning Weimin saw his nominal boss, Zou Guodong.

It turned out that he was the instigator. The most infuriating thing was that this kid had a look of watching the fun on his face, as if he was enjoying a comedy, watching how Ning Weimin and Matsumoto Keiko dealt with the flowers that flew into their arms with a little awkwardness.

It was not until there was really no more room that this guy asked someone to come forward and help take the flowers away to help them out.

"You did this on purpose to intimidate us, didn't you? I didn't offend you, did I?"

As soon as Ning Weimin regained the freedom of his hands, he began to demand justice.

But Zou Guodong has also become a bad person. He is no longer the honest man who speaks his mind directly and refuses to admit it.

"You don't know what's good for you. This is the etiquette of our hotel to welcome real VIPs in the future. Moreover, the hotel has not yet opened, but we will use it to receive you. You don't appreciate it, do you? Look at Miss Matsumoto, how easily she handled it and how graceful she behaved. She is an international star, not like you. You are so flustered because you have little experience and low status. You should experience more occasions like this in the future..."

Not to mention, when Ning Weimin looked back, he saw that Matsumoto Keiko was really happy.

She was holding a large bouquet of roses in her hand, looking very energetic. She was surrounded by the welcoming staff at the hotel entrance and signing autographs with a smile on her face. It certainly didn't look like he was completely inexperienced in such a situation.

So he didn't bother to argue and waited patiently for a while until Qingzi finished his work, and then they went into the hotel together.

However, after entering the hotel, Ning Weimin discovered that the hotel lobby was still under renovation and even the lights had not been fully installed. He couldn't help but feel a little strange.

He originally thought that the hotel was almost finished, and Song Huagui would invite them to visit and show off.

I didn't expect that this place is still a semi-finished product and it's still a long way from opening, so what's the point of looking at it?

But he didn't expect that Zou Guodong seemed to see through his thoughts and said, "Boss Song is waiting for you upstairs. You will know when you get up there."

However, he took them straight into the elevator and pressed the button for the 18th floor of the hotel.

Seeing that he was silent again, Ning Weimin couldn't help but joked, "What's going on? Are you taking us to the eighteenth level of hell?"

But Zou Guodong looked at him strangely for a long time and said, "You are talking nonsense. I didn't say that."

The elevator was very fast. Before Ning Weimin could come to his senses, it had reached the eighteenth floor.

As soon as he got off the elevator, he found that the hotel environment here was completely different from what he had imagined.

Because there are no deep carpeted corridors or guest room doors here.

There was only one corridor, a spacious marble-decorated, carpeted foyer, and two doors on the left and right of the foyer.

The house numbers above are 18-A and 18-B, which is commonly known as one elevator and two households.

The most bizarre thing is that there is a big Chinese character "喜" (happiness) pasted on the door of room 18-B.

Just as Ning Weimin was feeling quite surprised, he was wondering if this was the most luxurious suite in the hotel.

Zou Guodong walked to the right first and pushed open the door of 18-B.

"Please come, Mr. Ning, and take a look at your residence..."

"What?" Ning Weimin was shocked. "My residence?"

"Yes, this is arranged for you by Mr. Song. Considering the limited living conditions in Beijing and your upcoming family, Mr. Song is afraid that you and Miss Matsumoto will have trouble finding a place to stay when traveling back and forth between China and abroad, so he specially arranged a house for you on the 18th floor of our hotel. From now on, this house will be yours to live in, and it will not be used for other purposes. The business floor ends at the 17th floor, which is where the swimming pool and gym are. From then on, the guest rooms begin."

Zou Guodong then let them in, "Come in and take a look. The furniture was arranged by Mr. Song for you. They are all imported. Of course, if you insist on thinking that this is the eighteenth level of hell and don't appreciate it, then you can tell Mr. Song in person."

My goodness, you can't give me acupuncture at the door like this.

Ning Weimin's eyes widened when Zou Guodong said this last sentence deliberately towards the open door.

Needless to say, looking at this guy's actions, we can tell that it must be Song Huagui waiting for them inside.

Only then did Ning Weimin understand the reason for Zou Guodong's strange expression in the elevator just now.

It turned out that this kid was making a fool of himself. It turned out that what he said just now was purely his own fault.

So without saying anything, Ning Weimin glared at Zou Guodong who was deliberately cheating others, and took Matsumoto Keiko's hand and went in together.

Sure enough, as soon as they walked through the entrance and entered the living room, they saw Song Huagui trimming a large bunch of irises in the living room.

"Sister, we are here." Since Zou Guodong was unkind, Ning Weimin was also unrighteous. This time, she did not care about Zou Guodong being around and directly acted as the senior.

Not only did he call her that, he also asked Qingzi to follow him and call her "Big Sister".

This kind of vindictive and dirty way of retaliation really works.

When he turned around and looked back, Ning Weimin couldn't help but smile in his heart.

Zou Guodong, who was most concerned about seniority issues, was so angry that his nose was almost crooked.

But then again, it doesn’t matter whether you actually heard the words “Eighteen Levels of Hell” or not.

Song Huagui behaved very friendly, as if nothing had happened at all, and his expression was cheerful and calm.

"Hey, Weimin, Qingzi, you are finally here."

She greeted Ning Weimin and the others warmly, then walked up and personally took them on a tour of the place, showing them every room and the furniture she had chosen for them.

I have to say, this house is really nice.

Let’s talk about the living room first. It is spacious and bright.

The area must be at least 200 square meters, which is enough to host a small gathering of up to dozens of people.

There is also a garden-style balcony outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

There are not only parasols, lounge chairs and coffee tables, but also flowers, green plants and a small pond for raising goldfish. It's like a small private garden.

Walking south from the living room, there is a 50-square-meter bedroom and a 40-square-meter study, both with dedicated bathrooms. The bedroom even takes Keiko Matsumoto into consideration, including a 10-square-meter dressing room.

Everything in these two rooms, including the furniture, bookcases, wardrobes, bedding, curtains and wall hangings, all the objects and decorative details are extremely luxurious and filled with Song Huagui's aesthetics and wisdom.

Carved, gilded, silver-plated, or simply pure silver, hand-woven carpets, marble floors, and gorgeous wallpapers all remind people of the luxurious style of old European money.

To the north of the living room is a semi-open kitchen, a dining room with a bar, a bathroom with a bath and two smaller guest rooms.

The audio-visual equipment in the living room is the best, with a VCR and satellite TV.

International long-distance calls can be made through the switchboard.

Behind the bar is a wide variety of drinks and wines.

There is even an imported whirlpool bathtub in the bathroom, which is also the most advanced equipment of this era.

In fact, all of these facilities are more complete than what Ning Weimin envisioned for Yunyuan.

This is not all. Song Huagui also said, "From now on, when you live here, you don't have to worry about dry cleaning, clothing care, shoe polishing, cleaning, etc. Just call the hotel's customer service department and they will provide you with services. It will also be very convenient to entertain guests here. You can still call and the hotel will arrange chefs, bartenders and waiters for you. There is a concierge department for cars and a business department for faxes. You don't need to be polite. You don't even have to spend money on your consumption in our hotel. Just sign directly in the future. Everything will be reimbursed by our hotel."

Well, living here doesn’t mean you don’t have to pay rent, so it seems like you’re living here for free.

You can enjoy all the benefits of eating, drinking, defecating and urinating without having to spend a penny.

But in addition to these benefits, the most important thing is that the outdoor view of this house is simply impeccable.

Due to the special geographical location of this building, and because this room occupies the entire eastern half of the building, one can actually have a complete view of the China World Trade Center under construction, the Dabeiyao Interchange on the Third Ring Road, and Chang'an Avenue.

This is only slightly inferior to the Beijing Hotel which has a view of Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.

This is definitely not hell, it should be called heaven.

When Ning Weimin thought about the floor area of ​​this suite, which was almost half a floor and had nearly 500 square meters, his breathing became rapid.

This was definitely a luxury house that only the top class in Beijing could afford, and it was a treatment he had never even dreamed of in the past.

He never imagined that Song Huagui would actually give this house to himself and Qingzi as a gift, allowing them to live here for free all year round.

Apart from anything else, the hotel will lose a lot of money just on room charges.

Even if we calculate based on the current price of 8,800 yuan a day for the presidential suite at the Great Wall Hotel, the hotel will lose nearly 300,000 yuan a month.

What's more, this suite is much bigger than the presidential suite, more than twice as big, and its location is much better than the Great Wall Hotel.

No matter how you look at it, this is a bit too much.

Why should he make the company pay so much for him and occupy half a floor of the hotel every day?

Although he was grateful and touched, Ning Weimin did not dare to accept it after fully understanding what Song Huagui wanted to give him.

He didn't even ask Matsumoto Keiko's attitude, he just said, "Big sister, thank you so much, you always take care of me and worry about us. But I appreciate your kindness, this matter... I think we should just forget about it, right?"

However, Song Huagui was also sincere and immediately asked the reason.

"What? You don't want these arrangements of mine? Well, what are you dissatisfied with? Tell me..."

Ning Weimin was of course even more embarrassed.

"That's not what I meant, sister. Your gift is too big for us to accept."

"Where is this coming from?"

"To be honest, I am just a small manager. How can I take up so much of the company's resources? What merits have I done that you reward me like this?"

"Don't be so modest. If it weren't for your idea, where would this hotel come from? The company has grown to this point and has such assets, and no one has contributed as much as you. Don't worry, this is a normal reward based on merit, and you deserve it. Now that the hotel is built, no one can say anything if you live here."

"Oh, I can't take your words seriously. Not to mention that you are the general manager of the company, if we talk about rewards based on merit, I can never surpass you in terms of my contribution to the company. Even if I really have some small contributions, such an exaggerated reward would be too wasteful. Think about it, how long do I stay in Beijing in a year? We are not in Beijing, so this house can't be left idle for nothing. So if we want to live here, you should live here. You are more qualified than me."

However, when he said this, Song Huagui laughed instead, and laughed out loud.

However, Zou Guodong did not laugh at the joke this time. He interrupted in time and woke Ning Weimin up on behalf of Song Huagui.

"Mr. Song, you don't need to worry about it. I'll tell you the truth. Mr. Song actually lives on the floor above you. You live in 18-B, and Mr. Song lives in 19-B. Mr. Song's house is almost the same as yours. In addition, Mr. Pierre Cardon also has an exclusive room, which is opposite Mr. Song, 19-A. As for me, I'm actually your neighbor, and my house is opposite you, 18-A. How about it, do you understand now? In the entire Pierre Cardon Huaxia Company, only a few of us have such treatment."

Looking at the smiling faces of Zou Guodong and Song Huagui, Ning Weimin finally understood.
