Chapter 1311 Signature and Deposit

However, although he understood it, Ning Weimin still had some concerns. He did not think he was qualified to participate in the distribution of pork among the company's top executives. After all, his position and level were still far from being qualified.

Although he is nominally the head of the Overseas Department, everyone knows that he is just a lone commander.

Moreover, he has never done anything practical for the company. He went to Japan for personal gain. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that.

The key point is that Ma's Garden has been changed into Yun Garden, and now it has become a joint venture hotel. He really doesn't need to book a room in this hotel for a long time.

How can people be convinced if such good resources are wasted without any practical use?

He was worried that others would gossip and create unnecessary conflicts within the company, but why bother?

"Sister, I really appreciate you thinking of me about this. But after all, I can't compare with you. With my position and level, what will happen if other people in the company know about it? I'm not afraid of being scolded by others, but I'm afraid of causing trouble for you. So...how about...I'll borrow this room for a few days. After I get married, you can use it for business. After all, in a year, it can at least earn the hotel millions. Our hotel has just opened, and it's not easy to open up the market. I..."

Unexpectedly, this time, before he could finish his words, Song Huagui was amused by him and laughed out loud again.

And this time, not only Song Huagui, but even Zou Guodong was happy.

Ning Weimin was completely confused and didn't know what was going on.

  He was not being pretentious when he said this, it was really very kind. Was it really that ridiculous?

"Mr. Song, there are some things he still doesn't understand. You should talk to him carefully. This kid has always been cunning. If you don't tell him, he won't have to worry about the future. I'm afraid he will still be hesitant and timid, and will treat your kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs."

Zou Guodong did not forget to take the opportunity to say a few more words, fortunately the answer was soon revealed by Song Huagui.

"Wei Min, don't worry about the hotel's operation. To tell you the truth, even though we haven't opened yet, some rooms have already been booked out. Air France has signed a cooperation agreement with us, and their employees will be stationed in our hotel in the future. French Renault is also going to investigate the Chinese market and plans to book two suites in our hotel as a temporary office. German chemical companies BASF and Wella are also going to book a luxury suite for their representatives in China as residence. Reuters also hopes that we can provide several discounted rooms to their special correspondents all year round."

"In short, we are a French company after all. All the companies and institutions from Europe that want to do business in China need to consult the French embassy and consulate and find a place to stay in Beijing, and they will recommend us. Are you still afraid that we won't make money? We are a big family with a lot of business, so it's okay to make less than one million. Is the company going to grow bigger? Do we have to live frugally? Then what's the point of making the company bigger and stronger? We should enjoy it when we should."

"As for the internal problems of the company, you don't have to worry about it. I will not forget, nor will I treat any meritorious person unfairly. When the second building of our hotel is completed, in addition to moving our Huaxia company's headquarters here and opening the largest Pierre Cardin store in the basement, the top two floors of the building will also be reserved for our company's middle-level managers. However, their rooms will be smaller, basically about 100 square meters, with three bedrooms and one living room. In addition, they will only enjoy a 50% discount on hotel services..."

Ning Weimin was very surprised by Song Huagui's words.

He had not expected that the company's hotel, which was merely in the name of French capital, could take advantage of the customer base so much.

Although it has not opened yet, European customers who plan to come to the mainland to do business will be able to come here after hearing the news.

And there is the China World Trade Center next to it, so the conditions should be much better, but people still chose them.

This shows that people from all over the world like to stick together.

Yes, when someone goes to a strange place, the first choice will definitely be the brand he is familiar with, the brand of his own country.

I don't want anything else, I just want peace of mind.

No wonder there were rumors in Beijing in the past that the Changfu Palace was occupied by Japanese, the Hong Kong and Macau Center was occupied by Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrities, the Shangri-La was open to Southeast Asia, Americans lived in Hilton, and Kempinski did business with Europeans...

Apparently, this is really what is being discussed.

Therefore, as long as the hotel’s services and facilities are not too bad after opening, and it does not make things worse, then it will have no worries about source of customers.

In addition, Ning Weimin couldn't believe that Song Huagui would even take the lives of middle-level employees into consideration.

Anyway, he would never do such a wasteful thing.

  It’s such a waste to let company employees live in so many floors of the hotel for free!

The economic losses are enough to buy many courtyard houses.

However, this is in line with Song Huagui's personality and actual needs.

After all, her living requirements are very high, and only her own hotel can meet her needs.

Moreover, she never treats others unfairly. Being generous is in her nature and she has never behaved in a stingy way.

No one in the company could accuse Song Huagui of mistreating his subordinates.

Anyway, no matter how you put it, doing this really feels like everyone is celebrating.

Everyone will definitely not have any objections, and from the perspective of the company itself, it will even motivate everyone's work enthusiasm, increase everyone's loyalty to the company, and create centripetal force.

Even the grassroots employees who don't have a share have to think this way - look, who said that foreign companies only make a lot of money? Look, they even provide housing! And the room they provide is not in an ordinary place, but in a high-end hotel in Beijing. When I get better, I will also have this treatment in the future.

Come on, it’s up to you. Since the hotel also makes money, why do you care so much?

  Moreover, Song Huagui will definitely report this decision to the head office. The master has no objection, so who should he report to?

Just like that, Ning Weimin figured out the key problem. But at this moment, Song Huagui said something even more shocking.

"Oh, by the way, Weimin, this house is my wedding gift to you. It doesn't matter if you don't like it, but Mr. Pierre Cardon in France has also prepared a wedding gift for you, so don't refuse it."

As he spoke, Song Huagui walked into the study, quickly took out a folder and placed it in front of Ning Weimin.

Not only did Ning Weimin become more confused, but Matsumoto Keiko also became curious.

She took the opportunity to pour tea for everyone and sat down next to Ning Weimin.

As a result, the two of them put their heads together, shoulder to shoulder, and when they opened the first document, they were both stunned.

It took Ning Weimin a long time to react, and he even thought he was dreaming.

  It was not for anything else, but because it was a legal document, and the master's name had already been signed. The master... he actually... actually wanted to entrust Song Huagui as an agent to give Ning Weimin 15% of his personal shares in Huaxia Company for free!

In fact, Ning Weimin's heartbeat started to accelerate after he read a few sentences.

Because this means that as long as he signs the document and it is notarized, he will truly become the boss of the company.

It is no longer the case that he only owned that 1% of the shares, which was merely symbolic.

In the future, his shares will be second only to Song Huagui's 20%, making him the de facto third largest shareholder in the company.

Even part of this hotel belongs to him!

Judging from the current turnover of Pierre Catton China, the retail sales of more than 40 franchise stores in Beijing, Shanghai, Huacheng and Shenzhen alone exceed 50 million.

Now, with the addition of OEM exports from Beijing factories, the bulk of foreign trade business has steadily exceeded 100 million yuan.

This does not include the hotel's future profits.

Even if the company's scale remains the same, it means that Pierre Cardin will give Ning Weimin tens of millions of dollars for free every year.

The key point is that Pierre Catton China also owns 40% of the shares of Elad.

To put it bluntly, Ning Weimin's signing of this document not only means that his share of Huaxia Company will almost be equal to that of Song Huagui, who owns 20% of the shares, but it will also mean that the shares of Yilade Company in his hands will also increase simultaneously.

Is there anyone who knows the profits of Easylad better than him?

In France, the master just sold 90 million francs in licensing profits to Louis Vuitton.

By the way, a cooperation agreement was reached with Yves Saint Laurent, charging by the piece.

  What a gift this is!

"Mr. Carton said that he wanted you to sign it when we were in Paris, but it was put on hold due to some unexpected circumstances. He was also worried that you would refuse in person, so he prepared the relevant documents and sent them to me before you left France. This is a reward for your advice and suggestions to the company since you joined. He hopes that I can persuade you to accept this gift on his behalf. He also wants me to tell you that your business vision and mind are excellent, and the value you have created for the company has far exceeded his initial expectations. He will continue to be optimistic about you and will spare no effort to provide you with a platform for you to freely exert your creativity. I hope you don't have any concerns about this gift..."

Song Huagui then truthfully relayed Pierre Cardin's words to Ning Weimin, who was staring at the document in a daze.

Ning Weimin, who was flattered, certainly had no idea whether this matter was related to his financial and manpower support in helping LV to fight for equity, or whether it was related to his investment in Yves Saint Laurent.

  He also didn't know whether the master's action was a hint to him.

Is it a measure to prevent him from leaving the company one day?

But it must be said that these words have fully reflected the master's high hopes for Ning Weimin and his respect for him.

After working to this extent, I am actually going to become the actual boss. Nothing can be more motivating than this.

Especially seeing Matsumoto Keiko's face full of admiration and Zou Guodong trying his best to suppress his jealousy, it is an indescribable achievement in life.

To be honest, Ning Weimin could no longer pretend to refuse or say "I'm not interested" anymore.

Because the master really did it.

Things have developed to this point, no matter what he does, if he says one more "no", it will be hypocritical and will be unworthy of the master's kindness.

So without saying anything, Ning Weimin swallowed his saliva in fear, nodded at Song Huagui, forced a smile, and solemnly signed his name.

  At the same time, he was also very clear that after signing today, no matter how successful he became in the future, it would be difficult for him to completely separate himself from Pierre Cardon.

Regardless of whether he still works for the company or not, his concern for the company will always be a bond in his heart.

No matter where he goes, it will always be his responsibility and obligation to provide advice for the development of this company.

He will always carry the Pierre Cardin label and be firmly tied to this company.

Only in this way can we justify Pierre Catton’s share donation.

"Why do you look like that? You look like you have a lot of hatred and resentment. Why, you're still not happy?"

Seeing such a big piece of pie falling on Ning Weimin's head, his expression did not look relaxed. Zou Guodong, who had watched the whole process, really couldn't stand it and started to argue.

Of course, he had no idea what Ning Weimin was thinking, and just thought that he was being hypocritical and pretending to be hypocritical.

"I'm telling you, you're really my boss from now on. I'm busy all the time just to make money for you. If you have this attitude, how can we survive? Shouldn't we cry bitterly?"

However, his words also proved that he was indeed not shy. Ning Weimin, who had long enjoyed arguing with Zou Guodong, did not mind.

Knowing Zou Guodong's temperament, he quickly tried to make up for it.

"No, no, I feel that I have a great responsibility and the pressure is increasing. I don't know how to repay the company in the future. I don't know how to live up to the kindness of my elder sister. In fact, I was thinking just now that our hotel has a rich source of customers now, and it will definitely have a good start. But in the long run, more and more hotels will be built in Beijing, and how we can maintain the advantages of our hotel in the long run is a problem. This requires a practical goal and long-term efforts to maximize the advantages of our hotel."

Only then did Zou Guodong suppress his anger.

"Hey, that's the right attitude. It makes sense to say that. It's a bit like doing your job. It's worth it that the master and Mr. Song trust you and take care of you."

As for Song Huagui, because of her different position in the company, she was immediately touched. Of course, she was more concerned about whether Ning Weimin had any more practical and specific ideas.

"Wei Min, you are right. I have been thinking about this problem recently, but I still can't figure it out. After all, our hotel is still limited in size. It is not easy to maintain an advantage in Beijing for a long time and compete with so many five-star hotels. What I am most worried about is that our business will get worse and worse, and our popularity and reputation will decline. Then we will be abandoned by customers sooner or later. If it were you, what would you do?"

"My idea is not mature either, it's just an idea. Just don't laugh at me, I'll tell you about it for your reference."

Ning Weimin is a person who never talks nonsense when it comes to serious matters. He just mentioned it on his own initiative because he has a practical solution, and he is just being polite by saying this now.

So both Song Huagui and Zou Guodong were immediately shocked because they knew him well enough.
