Chapter 867. Chapter 867.
"Ladies and gentlemen: It is now 11:28 AM BJ time. We have arrived at the sky above BJ Capital International Airport. The ground temperature is now zero degrees Celsius. Due to the large temperature difference between the inside and outside of the cabin, please adjust your clothes in advance. It started to descend and is expected to land in 10 minutes. Please fasten your seat belts, put away the tray table, straighten the back of the seat, and open the sunshade..."

Lao Bai stared out the window blankly. The large criss-crossing green farmland that he could see every time before landing had disappeared into a large mass of yellow-brown sand and dust. Before landing, he specially checked the weather in BJ. Unfortunately, what greeted him was not the warm winter sun, but the long-lost sandstorm.

Fortunately, the sandstorm did not affect the landing of the plane. As long as the plane was not delayed, he would not miss his afternoon work.

As early as before Christmas, he had arranged for the domestic tourist groups that Le Bai would receive during the New Year's Day and Spring Festival. It is said that at this time, other people should be bringing domestic tourists to shop in Paris, Milan, Luxembourg, Barcelona and other places, and he You should enjoy the beautiful aurora with Lele on a cruise ship in Norway, eating cheap seafood, instead of sitting in a closed cabin and eating unpalatable airplane meals to "appreciate" the sandstorm.

What directly disrupted all his plans was Xu Tongying's special phone call to him in the early hours of Christmas, German time.

She told him: The group she handled has begun to show tourists quitting the group. Although the number of people is not too large, the quitting rate is about 10%, but with many years of travel experience in Southeast Asia, she faintly feels that the quitting rate may continue to rise , because northern tourists will take the same action sooner or later.On the one hand, she reminded Lao Bai to be mentally prepared, and on the other hand, she suggested that Lao Bai return to China as soon as possible to communicate with investors about the countermeasures. As for those groups that have not yet withdrawn, they should be handed over to Tong Lele, Lei Lanting, Dong Qiangqiang and others.

Although quitting the group is an undeniable fact, Lao Bai doesn’t really agree with Xu Tongying’s judgment in his heart. In his mind, the cost for Chinese people to travel to Southeast Asia is very low, especially visas are easy to get, so it’s easy to get a refund. The most difficult part of traveling to Europe and the United States is visa clearance. For those who have already obtained a European tourist visa, can they cancel it casually?He was skeptical.So he believes that the withdrawal from the group is only temporary, and it will return to normal in February, and it will not affect his overall arrangements for this year.This is just an unharmonious episode of outbound travel. Nothing can change Chinese people's awareness and enthusiasm for European outbound travel. After all, this door has just been opened, and it can be closed wherever it can be said.

Although he had his own ideas, Lao Bai still listened to Xu Tongying's suggestion: he and Lele returned home separately.He went back first, and Lele hurried back to China to join him after leaving the group.Both of them hope that they can get the certificates, wedding photos and banquets all at once during the Spring Festival.The first two are relatively simple, and the hotel is the most variable. Although he paid the deposit to the hotel last year, if something really happens to the hotel, he will have to pay even if it is added.The goal he set for himself was to give Lele a perfect wedding.He believes that as long as he gets married, Lele will not worry about Hualing anymore.

But what Lao Bai didn't expect was that there were less than three days before New Year's Eve at the end of January, and the group withdrawal rate had soared to 90%. Decided business group.

Xu Tongying's words became a prophecy.

Even though he has been in the industry for many years, he has never encountered such a strange thing as leaving the group completely, so even if he has an idea, he has to pay attention to it.

Because he and the investor have signed a VAM clause, if he completes the income and profit required by the investor by the end of the year, everyone will be happy and he will be unscathed.But if he doesn't complete it, then he will lose the bet. In addition to repaying the principal of all investors, he also has to pay high interest.When signing the VAM agreement, in order to prove that he has the ability to gamble, he chose that if the company has no money to repay the debt due, he will sell the house in his parents' hometown to make up the difference.

Now the bet is high, but the group is gone. No one knows when it will be restored. Even if it is restored, will anyone go abroad to play immediately?In addition to the loss of his planned income from leading the group, he also lost the car rental fee, insurance premium, labor cost and even some hotel accommodation expenses that he had paid in advance for leading the group. Although he was able to get back most of it in the end, he still There is a lot of money that will never come back.

Although he is not a pessimist, he can't help but think at this moment: If his script really failed in the bet, should he still marry Lele?Or it is more appropriate to ask, if he really loves her, would he choose to drag Lele into the mud pit, and bear such a lot of pressure and debt when he just got married?
He had mixed feelings in his heart.

If there is no group in the country, he must use other business models to make money and use investment funds to do other things, and the sooner the better.

Wait, a faint spark flashed in his mind.

Although an investment agreement was signed with the investor, the other party has not paid the money to Lebai BJ's account for a long time, saying that they will wait until the accountant is in place. If this is the case, can the bet be cancelled?

"Sir, please straighten the seat back." A voice above said softly.

Lao Bai turned a deaf ear to it, focusing on the thought that just popped up in his heart.Can investors accept his idea?
"Sir, please straighten the seat back." The voice repeated.

"Oh, ok, I'm sorry..." Lao Bai heard the flight attendant reminding himself.

The plane descended very fast, and the sudden drop of the fuselage caused Lao Bai's ears to ring. He took out the chewing gum in his pocket and was about to put it in his mouth when a violent jolt hit him.

The chewing gum fell lightly to his feet.

He couldn't help sighing, and turned his gaze out of the window again.

In the vast yellow sand, he couldn't see anything.

It was less than six o'clock in the evening, and it was completely dark.

The north wind howled, Lao Bai wrapped in a down jacket and carried a bag, and walked to a dilapidated three-story office building in BJ South City.

It is inaccurate to say that it is an office building, because the building is too short, and the skin of the facade is almost gone. The dark blue glass on the left side of the main entrance is also broken, but it is stuck together by transparent glue crookedly and forcibly, which looks horrible.

Lao Bai didn't understand why Xu Tongying made an appointment here. He thought he would meet the investor in the afternoon.

It was freezing outside, and he wanted to wait for Xu Tongying in the office building, but there were no chairs or heaters on the first floor, and there was only a security guard who stared at him intently. That look made him feel that the outside of the building seemed warmer.

He went back outside again, stood in front of the building and looked around while lighting a cigarette for himself, thinking about what he should say when he saw the other party.
