Chapter 499 Banquet Hall

In the afternoon, Su Cheng ate a round belly, and lay down under the parasol by the swimming pool to take a nap as usual.

The temperature difference in Kazakhstan is huge. It is not surprising that it is [-] to [-] degrees at noon and [-] to [-] degrees below zero in the middle of the night. In addition, dryness is also a major feature of this place. It is common for tourists who have just arrived to have chapped lips.Such an environment is suitable for the fragrance of melons and fruits, but it is difficult for outsiders to adapt.Sioux City has stayed in this port for a long time, and still prefers a humid environment. When the environment feels dry, he either goes swimming, or like now, pours some water by the pool and lies down to rest.

In the past two years, he could hardly feel such a leisurely atmosphere.

If it is in China, not to mention the endless approval of documents, the continuous meeting is very troublesome.Not to mention the businessmen who are traveling with them, there are many officials who come here, especially the cadres of the local government.It's fine if the person is not there, but if the person is there and not welcome, it's not justified.

But in a place like Almaty, avoiding the hustle and bustle outside, Sioux City can completely relax.

"Watermelon?" Shu Lan put a plate of bright red watermelon on the table, and took a piece by herself.She has always loved sweets, but when she came to Almaty, she fell in love with local fruits and could eat a basket every day.

Xinjiang is the province with the largest temperature difference in China, and the sweetness of the melons and fruits it produces is also the highest.But in the world, the melons and fruits of Kazakhstan and other Central Asian countries are the most famous. In the former Soviet Union, Kazakhstan provided a large amount of melons and fruits to Moscow and the Soviet Union every year. At the same time, this is one of the few countries in the Soviet Union that can exchange foreign exchange. product.

The fruits provided in the villa are naturally selected from the best, and Sioux City eats a lot of them every day.He squinted his eyes easily, stretched out his hand and twirled a watermelon with sharp corners, swallowed it in one gulp, then threw away the watermelon rind, ate another one, and threw another watermelon rind, as if he had been honed...

A plate of watermelon.Talking and laughing, it disappeared without a trace, leaving only the watermelon rind on the ground.

Only then did Su Cheng lie comfortably on the chair, and sighed: "Eat watermelon casually, throw the watermelon peels everywhere... This is like the life of an old rich man."

Shu Lan just laughed: "The person who throws the watermelon rind is not necessarily an old rich man, but may also be a minor."

"It's okay to be a minor, isn't 16 years old a minor?" Su Cheng looked over with a teasing smile.He and Shu Lan met for the first time when they were 16 years old.

Shu Lan naturally remembered it too.The eyes fluttered.The cheeks are slightly red, outwardly.But it is exactly the same as before.

Su Cheng couldn't help but move over immediately.

"boom!"

The closed gate on the other side of the swimming pool was suddenly opened.

This door is an electronic door that separates this villa from the villa next door, but once it is opened, the lawns of the villas on both sides are connected together.

Sioux City was facing the gate, and there was an English butler in the front, and a row of hotel waiters behind, all holding colorful things in their hands, and some carrying iron shelves and other objects.

"Could it be a coup?" This was Su Cheng's first reaction.

He lived in the villa of the President of Kazakhstan.If it weren't for the coup, who would have dared to force their way in.It is not surprising that oil merchants encounter coups. The Seven Oil Sisters have done countless coups in small countries, and they have also participated in coups in large countries.

It's just that Kazakhstan has always been known for its political stability. How could such a thing happen?

What attitude should I maintain?In just a few seconds, Su Cheng's thoughts diverged... If it was an organized coup.He didn't have anything to be afraid of, the only thing he was afraid of was a collective riot, but the butler and the waiter didn't look alike.

The combination of a housekeeper and a waiter is not a combination of a coup!

After a while, Su Cheng finally came back to his senses, and put his arms around Shu Lan who didn't know why.Eyes looked at the butler.

The butler of Yinglun Fan was expressionless, stood firm and said: "Mr. Su Cheng, Princess Ayman asked me to inform you that the dinner will be held at [-]:[-], and we are setting up the venue now."

He hooked his palm, and the waiters behind him began to set tables and chairs around the swimming pool.Pile wine bottles, set up the stage and dining table...

Judging by the posture, the entire villa is going to be requisitioned.

Su Cheng stood up slowly, looked outside the housekeeper.Tables, chairs, wine tables and so on came in through the side door that was opened all the way.

In other words, Princess Ayman, who lived next door, wanted to occupy his place for a dinner party.

Simply inexplicable!

Su Cheng suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "What does this mean?"

At the same time as the words came out, his mind had already begun to think, whose idea was this.

If the so-called princess is messing around, the worst result is probably to lose face and add some jokes in the oil circle.However, if this is a competitor's trick, it is another matter.The high profits and high risks in the oil industry have given birth to a large number of professional conspirators. Interlocking conspiracy stories emerge in endlessly. There are not many big conspiracies that start with a small incident, but it is not impossible. Su Cheng must be careful. .

The butler naturally couldn't guess the twists and turns in Su Cheng's mind, and said in London English, "Princess Ayman is going to hold a grand ball to entertain new friends from Europe. The invitation I sent you yesterday is For this matter. At the same time, I sent you an invitation card because I want to borrow the villa you are currently living in so that the area of ​​the dance will be larger and more grand."

"Did the post say that you want to borrow a villa?" Shu Lan taught herself English, and she didn't speak fluently, but her listening was no problem.She had read the invitation that was sent yesterday, and she really didn't remember any words about borrowing a villa in it.

The butler smiled slightly and said: "This is an unwritten agreement in Kazakhstan. If a friend sends an invitation to another friend, he can borrow the friend's place to hold a dance..."

Su Cheng smiled but said: "Kazakhstan still has such an agreement? You can try to send an invitation to Moscow, wouldn't it be more handsome to hold a dance in Red Square?"

"I'm not from Kazakhstan either, but since we're here, please let us continue to prepare for the banquet." The British housekeeper practiced British Tai Chi. After all, such a reason is really unreasonable, but Princess Ayman He can only perform his duties if required.

These days, although British-style butlers are famous, it is not easy to find high-paying jobs.

Su Cheng pouted.Without stopping the work of the dozens of waiters, he continued to ask: "Does President Nazarbayev know about this?"

"I don't know about that." The butler smiled.

"Then what about Princess Ayman you mentioned?"

"Princess Ayman will come to thank you in a while. She is choosing the bouquet for the dinner." The butler smiled and said, "Then can we continue to arrange the venue?"

Su Cheng ignored him, and whispered to Shu Lan, "You go to the second floor first, I'll make two calls."

Shu Lan nodded obediently, and then whispered: "Be careful. This is someone else's place."

Su Cheng's ears were itchy, and he said with a smile, "I know. It's probably because the princess has lost her temper, and nothing will happen."

After all, after sending Shu Lan back to the bedroom, he made several phone calls in a row.

Dahua Industrial has worked hard in Kazakhstan for two years, and it is not deeply rooted, but it has some roots.A large company with billions of dollars in assets will inevitably have inextricable relationships with politicians if it wants to carry out large-scale construction in a country, let alone a company like Dahua Industrial that attaches great importance to public relations and information.

Nazarbayev is of course Dahua Industrial's biggest power background in Kazakhstan.But with his influence, Dahua also managed a lot of relationships and intelligence.

After making a few phone calls, Su Cheng knew all about Princess Ayman's ins and outs.

Speaking of which, this is just a little girl in her early years, who was a member of the Young Pioneers and the Communist Youth League, but was sent to Europe to study during the Soviet turmoil, during which she ran her own magazine.She also worked as a model, and then became a member of the European fashion circle... The most brilliant thing is that although her magazine mainly introduces Kazakhstan, it has been recognized by the mainstream European society because of the selection of Central Asian fashion. , and thus received praise from Nazarbayev.After receiving a large amount of funding from Kazakhstan, Ayman used the money to expand his network of contacts, allowing the magazine's circulation to reach the benchmark of 2 copies per issue.

In the European fashion industry, this number is enough publicity.

Such a woman in the fashion industry seems to have nothing to do with the oil industry.

As for the reason why she came here, according to the analysis of a well-informed person, it might be the villa where Su Cheng is currently living.She used to live there.Because of Nazarbayev's face, Ayman couldn't drive people away directly, so he wanted to use this method to force Su Cheng away.

If this is the case, this is a child's play house level struggle, whether Su Cheng gives way or not, it will not cause any disturbances.

But Su Cheng is a cautious person by nature, especially when he is abroad, he naturally has to think twice about things.

He forwarded the news he got to the Information Bureau, and while letting professional analysts analyze it, he fell into deep thought.

This Princess Ayman is not very old, and she has lived in Europe in recent years and has been mixed in the fashion circle. It is not surprising that she does not take the chairman of a foreign company seriously.

There are too many oil companies in Kazakhstan. Oil companies in Europe, the United States and other places have no time to bribe Kazakh politicians. How dare they offend them.

This Ayman princess mainly developed some arrogance, which is not new.

However, she is not sensible, is there no sensible person around her?

The China-Kazakhstan oil pipeline is as important to China as it is to Kazakhstan.What's more, there is also the plan to move the capital that Nazarbayev attaches great importance to.

Is it worth breaking the sky because of a villa?

Su Cheng was not in a hurry, thinking over and over again, but the others didn't have such patience.

Gu Hongjun was soon overwhelmed by the sound of the arrangement outside, couldn't help knocking on the door of Sucheng, and said loudly: "The tables outside are full, and it makes me angry just looking at them. Chairman Su, do you want me to Smash it!"

Although he is nominally a security guard assigned to Sioux City by the state, he has already been facing Sioux City after a few years, so he doesn't care about the diplomatic rules.According to Gu Hongjun's simple thinking, as long as Su Dong nodded, he would naturally put things in order. If not, with his temperament, at least he would send two people up first to make a fuss.

"No rush." ​​The little bit of anger that Su Cheng had accumulated earlier had dissipated from his face, and he said in a nonchalant manner at this moment: "Construction is difficult and destruction is easy, let them set up the table first, when the time comes, this Whether the dinner can be held or not depends on us."

"Then wait?"

"Wait."

"What are you waiting for?" Gu Hongjun was confused.

"See if this Princess Ayman will appear or not." After thinking about it just now, Su Cheng just told Gu Hongjun to straighten out his thoughts: "If this Ayman is really the princess' patient, then she can't wait." By 8 o'clock, I will definitely come out. Didn't the housekeeper also say that she is choosing tweeds, whether she is showing off her power or coercing her, she must let me obey, otherwise, how could she force us away."

Gu Hongjun rubbed his head and asked, "What if she hides?"

"Hiding means that someone is pointing her back. Such a reckless act, why do you need to avoid me?"

Gu Hongjun had a flash of inspiration, and said: "Then if she doesn't look down on us at all, maybe she won't bother to see us?"

When he said this, Su Cheng was taken aback, and said with a smile: "You say so, it is really possible that this person has the princess disease. If that is the case, let's hold a banquet as well."

"Let's do it too?" Gu Hongjun couldn't understand now.

Su Cheng looked at his watch and said with a smile: "It's a bit tight until 8 o'clock, but it's enough. After all, the venue has been set up. I'll make a few more calls. You call the people from the public relations department to come over, and then send our security guards Organize, oh, and inform the police in Kazakhstan again, and ask them to send someone to help with security."

Gu Hongjun left without understanding.

Sioux City called the embassy and said that he was going to hold a dinner party and invited the embassy to participate, and asked the embassy to invite some friends to participate, but there was no reason to agree.To do diplomacy is to do relations, and embassies abroad inevitably hold many banquets every year.However, in the early 90s, the Chinese embassy did not have enough funds, and they rarely took the initiative to hold banquets except for the routine New Year and Spring Festival.

Even if it is held, they can't produce much dry goods.In this season, the Russian embassy has tempting caviar and vodka and other world famous products, but the Chinese embassy can only use spring rolls, dumplings and silk to make up the number.

Large-scale events are a great burden for the embassy at this time, especially irreplaceable drinks such as champagne and red wine are expensive, and you have to buy them. It can only be said to be encouraged to maintain.Sioux City voluntarily borne the cost, and if the Chinese embassy disagreed, it was too late to complain even if time was tight.

At the same time, the members of the public relations department who were recruited also began to quickly call and send invitations to contact the politicians and wealthy businessmen of Kazakhstan.

China-Kazakhstan oil pipelines are basically laid in Kazakhstan, and there are many relationships to be opened up.However, no matter whether these relationships work or not, most of them will not refuse Sioux City's invitation. After all, if the purpose of eating Naka is not the means, the banquet held at President Nazarbayev's villa is still very attractive.

Hearing the familiar ringtone of the phone, Su Cheng gently opened the curtains, looked at the neatly packed banquet hall below, and couldn't help smiling.
