Hong Kong Giant Owl: Rebirth

Chapter 269 pass by
At 09:30 in the morning, Qin Zhongyuan and Qin Jiangshan came to the building of the Jardine Group in Causeway Bay because they made an appointment with Michael Harris to meet at ten o'clock.

And when they came to the top floor, Michael Harris' secretary said to them: "Two gentlemen, Mr. Harris is still meeting with guests, both of you should wait in the reception room first."

Qin Zhongyuan immediately showed a gentle smile and said, "It's okay, after all, we came early."

The reception room is just next to Michael Harris' office, and it is also spacious inside. The windows on the east side can also have a panoramic view of Causeway Bay.When Qin Zhongyuan and Qin Jiangshan first entered the reception room, the secretary made two cups of tea for them.

"You two, please wait a moment. Mr. Harris will be able to meet you soon." The secretary smiled politely.

"Thank you." Qin Jiangshan also smiled at her.

After the secretary left, Qin Jiangshan said to Qin Zhongyuan: "Although today is Chinese New Year's Eve, these British people are still very busy at work after the Spring Festival."

"That's right." Qin Zhongyuan went to the window sill, overlooking the Causeway Bay below, and said, "The scale of the Jardine Group is much larger than that of our Qin Corporation. Michael Harris is naturally very busy to manage such a large group. Yes. However, Michael Harris is not too young, and he will retire sooner or later."

Qin Jiangshan nodded: "I heard that their Jardine's family has already started selecting an heir a long time ago. I have inquired about it. Now the Jardine's family has the most popular succession candidate named William Justin. It is said that Now I am working with Du Yiheng in Wharf Company. From my point of view, Michael Harris may want Du Yiheng to be William Justin's assistant."

"Du Yiheng was trained by Michael Harris. I have met him. He is a very talented person. People outside often say that Jardine Group has a Du Yiheng, which is worth 1 ordinary employees." Qin Zhong Yuan took a sip of tea and said, "It can be seen from this that Michael Harris, who trained Du Yiheng, is definitely a very powerful person."

Qin Jiangshan said: "We met him at the New Year's party at the Governor's Mansion the year before, and he looked like a kind old British man. However, it is such a kind British old man, I don't know how many business tycoons It was defeated by him."

Qin Zhongyuan squinted his eyes: "This time, the Jardine Group wants to invest in a five-star hotel in Causeway Bay, and Michael Harris also intends to find external partners. I have analyzed that the status of Causeway Bay in Hong Kong Island has become more and more serious. It is getting higher and higher, and it is becoming more and more large-scale as a commercial center. The development potential here is extremely huge. Swire, Wheelock and Hutchison are all interested in investing in hotels and department stores in this area. If we can seize this opportunity in time Opportunities will be of great benefit to the development of our Qin family. So this time, we must win the opportunity to cooperate with the Jardine Group and participate in this competition as soon as possible."

"With the strength of our Qin family, I believe Michael Harris will not reject us as a partner." Qin Jiangshan said.

Regarding Qin Jiangshan's words, Qin Zhongyuan was noncommittal. He knew that as the helm of the Jardine Group, Michael Harris was by no means a kind person. It might not be as easy as he imagined to reach a cooperation with him.

Waiting and waiting, the time has already reached 15:[-] before he knew it, Qin Jiangshan looked at his watch, frowned and said: "It's already [-] minutes later than our agreed time, Michael Harris manages so Big groups shouldn’t be the kind of people who don’t have a sense of time.”

Just as he was talking, the door of the reception room was pushed open, and the secretary named Lucy also walked in and said to Qin Zhongyuan and the others: "I'm sorry, Mr. Harris is meeting a very important guest, so His meeting with the two will be postponed for a while. If the two of you still have things to do, you can make an appointment to meet with Mr. Harris next time."

Qin Zhongyuan laughed quickly and said, "No need, let's wait, it's okay."

"Okay, Mr. Harris asked me to say sorry to you two." Lucy said with a smile, and then left.

Qin Jiangshan frowned and said, "Who is Michael Harris meeting with? Even the schedule has changed?"

Because people like them who manage large-scale enterprises arrange matters according to the schedule almost every day, and generally follow this schedule. Unless there are special circumstances, they will not change the schedule.

Qin Zhongyuan pondered: "Could it be people from big companies like Swire Group or Wheelock, right? I'm afraid the person at the helm of Swire or Wheelock will trouble Michael Harris to personally interview him."

In the end, the two of them waited in this reception room until nearly eleven o'clock before they heard Michael Harris' hearty laughter coming from outside the door.Qin Zhongyuan was refreshed, and hurried to open the door of the reception room, and saw three figures walking to the corner of the corridor.

Two of them were Michael Harris and Du Yiheng. As for the third person, Qin Zhongyuan guessed that it should be the guest that Michael Harris had just met.However, because the man was at the corner of the corridor, Qin Zhongyuan couldn't see the man's appearance, he could only see the tightly held hands of the man and Michael Harris.

Qin Zhongyuan's eyes were sharp. Although he could only see the man's hand, he could tell at a glance that it was the hand of a yellow man, not a white man.Moreover, Qin Zhongyuan could faintly hear Michael Harris say "goodbye" to that person in half-baked Chinese.

As we all know, although Michael Harris has lived in Hong Kong for a long time, he has never understood Chinese, and the guest that Michael Harris just met, not only allowed Michael Harris and Du Yiheng to send each other off in person, but also made Michael Harris Harris said goodbye in Chinese, which shows the importance of that person.

Moreover, from all indications, Michael Harris' guest is still Chinese.In Hong Kong, where the British still dominate the political and business circles, the helm of an old-school British consortium like Michael Harris seldom pays attention to Chinese, unless that person is extremely talented or powerful.

Even a well-known rich man like Qin Zhongyuan may not be a big deal in the eyes of Michael Harris.There are only a handful of Chinese with Qin Zhongyuan's strength in today's Hong Kong, so Qin Zhongyuan really can't guess which Chinese can get such kind treatment from Michael Harris.

After sending the mysterious man away, Michael Harris and Du Yiheng turned around and happened to see Qin Zhongyuan standing outside the door of the reception room. Michael Harris immediately came with a smile: "Boss Qin, I'm sorry, I'm sorry , because a friend came to see me just now, so I wasted a little time and kept you waiting for a long time."

Qin Zhongyuan quickly said with a smile in English: "It's okay, it's okay."

In fact, in order to build a good relationship with the Hong Kong British government and these old-fashioned British consortiums, Qin Zhongyuan worked hard on English many years ago, so although his English level is not high, his oral English is still very fluent.

Hearing that Michael Harris said that person was his friend, Qin Zhongyuan became even more confused. He couldn't think of any Chinese friends that Michael Harris had that he could value so much.

I heard Michael Harris laughing again: "It's a coincidence that my friend and Boss Qin have the same surname as you, haha. To be honest, I've been rolling around for so many years, and I've seen countless people, but I've never seen him. With such talented people, you Chinese are really crouching tigers, hidden dragons."

"Oh?" Qin Zhongyuan raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "To get such praise from Mr. Harris, that gentleman must be very talented. I don't know when I can get acquainted with him?"

Michael Harris laughed and said, "There is a chance, there is a chance."

Since Michael Harris didn't delve into that friend surnamed Qin, Qin Zhongyuan couldn't ask further.

Led by Michael Harris and Du Yiheng, Qin Zhongyuan and Qin Jiangshan also walked into the office to discuss the cooperation between Qin's and Jardine Group.

At the same time, Qin Haoran was escorted out of the main entrance of the Jardine Building by the secretary named Lucy. He smiled at Lucy, "Thank you, Miss Lucy, just send it here."

"You're welcome, Mr. Qin." Lucy smiled charmingly, and secretly gave Qin Haoran a wink.

It is undeniable that in the eyes of many women, Qin Haoran is an extremely attractive man, young, handsome, outstanding, polite and gentle.More importantly, Lucy has never seen Michael Harris send out guests in person, which shows how much he attaches importance to Qin Haoran.

And Lucy was able to serve as Michael Harris' secretary. What she saw and heard was absolutely extraordinary. Naturally, she knew that a person who could receive such attention from Michael Harris, even if the current achievements were not too great, would definitely have a limitless future in the future. .

A woman like Lucy who knows how to make "long-term investment" will naturally not let go of such a good "potential stock" as Qin Haoran.

But it is a pity that although Lucy is beautiful and charming, Qin Haoran has no interest in her, so he just pretended not to see Lucy's winking eyes, smiled and left, leaving only a tall and straight back for Lu West, let Lucy's eyes full of disappointment.

After leaving the Yihe Building, Qin Haoran got into his car, and then he was going back to Qin's house.

But when he left the parking lot of Yihe Building, Qin Haoran accidentally saw a black "Mercedes-Benz" car over there. He recognized this car as belonging to the Qin family, and it was usually used by Qin Zhongyuan.

"Huh? Did he come here too?" Qin Haoran said to himself, he was glad that he didn't meet him just now, otherwise if Qin Zhongyuan knew that he came to see Michael Harris, there would be unexpected problems.
