Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Chapter 59 Mr. Jiang teaches a lesson to the turtle

Zhou Zhuolin, President of InterContinental Hotels Group Greater China, walked to the stage, respectfully addressed Jiang Beicheng, and sought his opinion on whether he would be willing to go on stage to receive the gift prepared for him by Lagna Winery.
This action instantly attracted the attention of the whole audience.

The 01 Ragnarok Barbaresco dry red wine is the focus of tonight, and who InterContinental Hotels Group will give it to is the highlight of tonight.

When everyone thought that the two bottles of red wine were prepared for Pan Wenzhou, the president personally stepped in.

Even Haitangxi, who was sitting next to Jiang Beicheng, was a little surprised.

She now believed what Jiang Beicheng had just said. InterContinental did invite him to give a speech as a member ambassador, but he refused and had to find Pan Wenzhou as a second choice.

Haitangxi felt embarrassed just thinking about how Pan Wenzhou had just gone up to flatter him.

The brightest clown tonight.

At this time, Pan Wenzhou's expression was gloomy. He didn't dare to look directly at Jiang Beicheng, and could only glance at him out of the corner of his eyes.

At the same time, he was also afraid that the guests at the table would ask him about related matters.

I even wanted to disappear on the spot.

The most uncomfortable thing was that he didn't dare to move, otherwise all eyes would be focused on him again.

At that time, everyone laughed at him.

He flatters so loudly and feels so superior, but in the end he is just a supporting role.

If I don’t laugh, who are you laughing at?
At this time, Pan Wenzhou could be said to be sitting on pins and needles, feeling like a thorn in his back.

Jiang Beicheng originally didn't want to be in the spotlight. After the dinner, he just wanted the hotel to send the wine back to him.

When he just came in, General Manager Robert told him that Zhou Zhuolin had prepared a surprise for him.

These should be these two collection-level Ragnar Barbaresco red wines.

But when I thought about how Pan Wenzhou had just flattered me on the stage, I felt uncomfortable.

Does a foreign-funded enterprise need you to lick it like this?

Are they used to being the capitalists' lackeys? Or are they used to kneeling?
Not only does he lick it, but he also feels good about himself.

Jiang Beicheng accepted Zhou Zhuolin's invitation and walked onto the stage to receive the gift Luca prepared for him.

Robert sent Mai to Jiang Beicheng, meaning to let him say a few words.

Jiang Beicheng took the microphone and said, "Before the cocktail party started, I heard an interesting topic in the banquet hall, the Turtle Theory."

This sentence not only made Haitangxi laugh, but also made the person involved, Pan Wenzhou, nervous.

Jiang Beicheng continued, "There's a certain business logic behind the idea that hybrids are more likely to survive.

There is no doubt that InterContinental Hotels Group is a benchmark in the global hotel industry, but whether it can continue to create myths in the hotel industry in the Chinese market is another matter.

I am a loyal user of InterContinental. The reason I chose it is not because of its service, corporate culture... these factors.

I really like the localization strategy it has implemented in China.

I have attended thank-you banquets like tonight's three times.

One was a thank-you banquet for Yunnan mushroom delicacies, one was an appreciation of intangible cultural heritage, and one was a traditional Chinese fashion show.

Intercontinental does a great job.

Our President Zhou Zhuolin must have a deep understanding of Chinese culture and Chinese consumer habits. This respect made me choose InterContinental."

There was warm applause.

Zhou Zhuolin raised his hand and applauded, affirming Jiang Beicheng's point of view.

Jiang Beicheng's words formed a sharp contrast with Pan Wenzhou's flattery.

One is kneeling and licking, the other is standing up straight and welcoming friends from all over the world with an open mind. The difference is huge.

Jiang Beicheng concluded by saying, "Today's China is an open China. Today's Chinese market is open to all. We welcome outstanding foreign companies to invest in China and exchange ideas with us.

Similarly, today's China is a strong China, and today's Chinese consumers are consumers who stand up straight and are confident.

Understanding Chinese culture, national characteristics, and the consumption habits of Chinese consumers is what you should do.

I am very pleased that the localization strategy launched by InterContinental Hotels Group is to integrate into Chinese society and learn to deal with Chinese people.

I hope you will continue to maintain this momentum, and I wish InterContinental Hotels Group will continue to do better."

"it is good!"

"Well said."

"So handsome!"

"..."

The entire banquet hall was filled with applause. Zhou Zhuolin walked towards Jiang Beicheng with a smile on his face, shook Jiang Beicheng's hands with both hands, and thanked him, "Mr. Jiang, it is our honor to receive your recognition."

Take a photo with Jiang Beicheng.

While the audience was praising Mr. Jiang, they also began to talk about Pan Wenzhou.

Following the word "tubie", another new word "licking dog" came into his ears.

Jiang Beicheng's words not only made him lose all face and shatter his sense of superiority, but also made him feel humiliated.

Directly red temperature.

He felt that Jiang Beicheng was deliberately causing trouble for him.

The hotel was also playing tricks on him.

All the guests were very unfriendly.

Fell into the trap of emotional breakdown.

Jiang Beicheng didn't even look at him. He took two bottles of wine, walked down the stage and took a seat. Haitangxi looked at him with admiration.

This little brat has such a big vision.

There are a lot of things in his head. His behavior these two days has shocked his sister.

I admire you very much.

Jiang Beicheng handed the wine to Haitangxi.

"Give it to me?" Haitangxi waved her hand, not wanting to take away what others loved.

"It's essentially wine, a consumer product. I'll drink it with Uncle Hailin next time I go to your house." Jiang Beicheng didn't think it was something great. He was not a wine collector, and his attitude towards consumer products was always to enjoy them.

"I suddenly find that your free-spirited and arrogant look is very handsome!" said Haitangxi.

"You've been so handsome for so many years, but you just realized it today?"

"You're being narcissistic again." Haitangxi smiled and clinked glasses with Jiangbeicheng, "Do you know how ugly that Mr. Pan's face was?

That’s great, little Chengcheng.”

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, "What a pity."

"What a pity?" Haitangxi looked confused.

Jiang Beicheng remained mysterious and did not answer.

If he and Haitangxi had an intimate relationship, Haitangxi's smile just now would also be recorded by the system.

It's a bit of a pity.

However, he had satisfied his desire to be in the spotlight and taught Pan Wenzhou, a sea turtle, no, a country bumpkin, a lesson, and he was in a very good mood.

【Number of smiles: 13/100】

"Hello, Mr. Jiang, what you just said was so good..."

"Mr. Jiang, you are young and promising. I offer you a toast."

"Boss Jiang, can we exchange contact information?"

"..."

The other people in the banquet hall raised their glasses to toast Jiang Beicheng, and they really appreciated his performance on the stage.

There are many eye-catching people of the opposite sex among them, but Haitangxi is not jealous, nor is she aroused by the desire to win. Instead, she is proud to have a male friend like Jiang Beicheng around her.

The way he spoke at the cocktail party today made him sound more like a successful industry elite, or even an entrepreneur.

While others were toasting Jiang Beicheng, Pan Wenzhou found an opportunity to go to the hotel management to ask for an explanation.

Why are you playing tricks on him?

Zhou Zhuolin and Luca had already left, so he could only look for Robert. "I really want to know what the hotel's standards are for giving gifts."

Robert immediately guessed that Pan Wenzhou was referring to Jiangbei City, and patiently explained, "Mr. Pan, we set the standards based on personal consumption.

The final surprise was prepared for Mr. Jiang, whose annual spending is the highest among Jiangnan Ambassador members.”

Pan Wenzhou was stunned for a moment, then had a bad feeling and asked, "What was your motivation for choosing me as the member representative?"

Robert said: "Mr. Pan, we have invited you as well as Mr. Jiang. You are both our most valued customers."

Pan Wenzhou was dumbfounded. He knew that Robert was just being polite. The deeper meaning was that Jiang Beicheng had rejected the invitation, so the hotel contacted him.
