Chapter 125 Business trip to Shenzhen
It is impossible to hide. I don’t have to guess what Director Feng wants to talk to me. I would have scolded Annie all long ago. If she hadn’t always been those unreasonable little things, Director Feng wouldn’t have talked to me about these things.
I took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Director Feng, you said."
He hesitated and opened his mouth before saying, "Annie broke up with Li Feiyang from the Media Department. I know this, she... is interesting to you, and I also know that I don't want to say too much about your young people's love affairs, but I suggest you think twice about what she is. What is her identity? You know if I don't need to say more about this."
I smiled: "Mr. Feng, you are too worried. I only have a relationship between my colleagues and nothing else, so don't worry."
"I know, but that's not what I mean." He looked at him in confusion. After a while, he sighed and said bluntly: "Everyone with a discerning eye can see that Annie likes you, not you like her, but..."
I chuckled and added his words to his words but stopped: "But you want me to keep a distance from her and to let her stop thinking, right?"
He nodded and I continued, "Mr. Feng, I'm sorry, I can't do this. She is a normal adult. She also has the right to choose her own way. I have no right to interfere with a person's behavior and decisions. The only thing I can guarantee to you is that I will do my duty."
I think that sometimes when you should be tough, you have to be tough. No matter who the other party is, because once you are weak and compromise, there will definitely be a lot of trouble in the future. It is better to say it clearly from the beginning. I have been working hard for nearly two years in society, and I am no longer the "slaughtered" young man when I just graduated.
Director Feng's expression calmed down a little. Although he seemed to have something to say, he could only nod in the end and said, "That's good, I'll feel relieved if you say that."
...
The next day, when I was just walking to the subway station and preparing to go to the company, Director Feng suddenly called and told me that I was going to Shenzhen for a business trip today, which was about two days and three nights. I asked me to pack up my clothes when I went to the company in the morning. In desperation, I had to go back to the rental house as usual, simply packed up two sets of clothes and then went out.
When I got downstairs of the company, Director Feng was already waiting for me in the car. As soon as he got in the car, he found Annie was also there. Seeing me getting in, she pushed the sunglasses on her nose and said, "Hey, what a coincidence!"
Before I could pay attention to her, Director Feng frowned and scolded: "Xiao An, stop making trouble!"
"Hmph! I didn't say anything, why is Uncle Feng so fierce!" Annie crossed her hands in front of her chest, pouting and angry.
"Let's go."
The driver replied politely: "Okay, Mr. Feng."
Guangzhou is not far from Shenzhen, and it is just an hour away. We drove directly to Huaqiangbei. Lan Xuan Siji people were already waiting for our arrival at the entrance of the hotel, but Qi Min was not there. As a result, people with noble status like him don’t need to come here to receive us in person.
"Please please, Mr. Qi has arranged a room and lunch for everyone, please follow me." One of the men who led the lead said politely to us, and the other two younger men around him took the luggage from us.
In the past, I only passed by Lan Xuan Four Seasons, but I never went in to enjoy it. This time I came in gave me a different feeling. Unlike other five-star hotels, the name "Lan Xuan" originally has an ancient atmosphere, and the decoration style inside is also antique. The dark red new Chinese style is matched with modern elements, which makes people feel luxurious and connotated, and a grand and magnificent feeling arises naturally.
The three of us were arranged in the same room on the same floor, each with one room. We put our luggage in the room, and I looked up and down the decoration of the entire room, and finally opened the curtains and high-end office buildings came into our eyes.
Speaking of which, this is the first time I have stayed in a five-star hotel. I couldn't help but stay for a while before leaving the room. Because the hotel management staff came over, we asked us to go to the VIP room to discuss project cooperation.
After the meeting, Annie kept asking me and asked me what my relationship with Mr. Qi. I said I was a friend in college. He asked a lot about Qimin, and he performed "100,000 Whys" like a curious baby.
"If you have nothing to do, you can go back to your room to sleep, or go to the nearby place to have fun. The scenery in Huaqiangbei is still very good." I stopped and took a breath and said.
She stretched out her index finger and tapped her chin a few times, and said with a playful expression: "I want to do it too, but no one is with me. Uncle Feng is still chatting with the client, and you are the only one left. Why don't you go with me to play?"
I said patiently again: "Grandma, let me go! I still have a lot of things to do. During the business trip, I must understand the current situation of the entire hotel clearly. Is this a huge workload OK?"
"Then...I'll work with you?" she said again with her eyes rolling.
"I thank you! I really don't need it." After saying that, I opened the door of the room and went in without any concern for her expression.
In the room, I turned on my laptop and plugged in the USB flash drive given by the customer. As soon as I saw the twenty g of information, I had a headache. So I brewed a cup of coffee for myself, then smoked a cigarette and started to officially start working after a while.
According to the data, the overall turnover of this Lanxuan Siji in Shenzhen is actually very good, but it is a bit worse than that of the one in the Guangzhou headquarters. Currently, the performance of the Shenzhen branch ranks eighth to the bottom among all branches, which seems to be the bottom, but such turnover is much higher than that of other ordinary hotels. The reason why Shenzhen Lanxuan Siji's performance is not high is probably because there are too many star-rated hotels in this city that compete with it, not to mention that it is a newcomer to Shenzhen, and it takes a time cycle to increase its turnover for a while.
After having an analysis idea, I continued to extend my ideas according to my own ideas and prescribe the right medicine. First, I compared the marketing plans of other branches in each quarter, and then searched online for hotels of the same level as it in Shenzhen to see what other people's marketing strategies in the recent quarter. Every city has its own characteristics, and marketing things must be adapted to local conditions.
I had an idea, but the workload could not be completed in a short while. It took me more than two hours to check the information. In a blink of an eye, it was time for dinner again. Just when I was thinking about whether to order takeout to eat in the evening or go out for dinner, Qi Min suddenly called me, asking me to go up to the top floor of the hotel for dinner, but he specifically emphasized that this was a private dinner and had nothing to do with work, so I just needed to go up by myself.
I took the sightseeing stairs to the top floor. While rising, I also realized how prosperous the CBD of this city is. The night view of the nearby city was instantly visible to me. When I got up to the top floor, I saw Qi Min's figure with his back facing me, holding a goblet in his hand. At first glance, he looked like the temperament of a "successful person".
"The scenery is really good, CBD is different!" I walked to him and sighed.
Qi Min smiled lightly, took a sip of red wine, and said, "Huaqiangbei is just a cbd that many people outside searched for based on online information. On the surface, if you evaluate it comprehensively, Futian is the cbd from Shenzhen."
"It is said that five-star hotels must be built in the most prosperous business district. Why didn't you choose the location of the hotel in Futian when you first chose the location?"
"The best one is not necessarily the most suitable one." He raised the red wine glass in his hand, shook it gently, and continued: "It's like this wine, although it is not the most expensive wine in the world, it is also valuable, just about the same. Does it mean to drink the most expensive wine to be considered to have drunk wine?"
"Don't make those fancy ones, I just said that, why are you talking so many reasons?" I also picked up a glass of red wine from the table next to me and took a sip, then looked at him, "Do you have something to worry about?"
Instead of answering me immediately, he handed me a cigar, and then lit one by himself. After a while, he said, "It's not a matter of worries, it's just emotional things. Some things have never been possessed before. Later, when he had them, he found that there seemed to be no high expectations, but a little disappointed."
