Ye Jinyan and Daisy had a very happy meal. During the conversation, he also mentioned the Qingpu project he inspected today and asked Daisy to share her opinion, which could also help Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo gain some experience.
Daisy smiled slightly at his words and said, "Actually, Jingyan has a significant advantage in this project. After all, this is an old district renovation project, and the library is a landmark building in the town. Although it's not very old, it's very representative and a childhood memory for many people, so it needs to be preserved."
Hearing this, Ye Jinyan smiled from the bottom of his heart. It seems that Dai Qian has done a detailed understanding, so he nodded and said:
"You understand my thoughts best. This library project is the core selling point of Jingyan Group's bidding. In addition to being a sentiment and an ideal, it can also enhance the value of the entire real estate project.
It will also make the Jingyan Group's brand more famous, give people more confidence in the value preservation and appreciation of the corresponding real estate, and give the project more cultural heritage."
"I knew you weren't someone who acted on impulse. You made this decision after careful consideration. Nansun, when you promote this product, you must grasp the core values of this cultural heritage.
Besides Qingpu, many old residential areas around Shanghai are under urgent reconstruction and renovation. If this project is successful, it will win more impressive points in future competitions.
Even if this library doesn't make money, the entire project will be different because of its existence. Mr. Ye is trading temporary benefits for the brand effect and future benefits of Jingyan Group."
Dai Xi has been a designer for more than ten years. He participated in all of Jingyan’s early real estate development projects and has never stopped paying attention to them over the years. Naturally, he knows the benefits of branding.
The reason why Jingyan Group has not lost out when competing with other companies over the years is because Jingyan’s houses are synonymous with high quality.
While Ye Jinyan and Daisy were chatting and laughing, Zhu Suosuo couldn't help but say, "Boss Ye, I think I understand what you and my aunt are talking about. But for such a large project, the R&D team only has Nansun and Li Ang working on it. Isn't that too few people?"
"We're indeed short-staffed. I've discussed this issue with Han Tao, and he actually gave us a good suggestion."
After that, Ye Jinyan looked at Jiang Nansun and said with a smile: "Nansun, I want Fan Jingang to talk to Professor Dong and ask him to serve as a consultant for this project.
If possible, let Professor Dong recommend a few students to come over. It happens that you are Professor Dong's student, so how about you come forward to communicate? "
Daisy nodded in agreement, looked at her niece Jiang Nansun, and said, "This is a good idea. I just suggested looking for Professor Dong with this in mind.
Professor Dong is very prestigious in the field of architecture and is known for his protectiveness. With a student like you coming forward to invite him, he will definitely not refuse.”
"Then...well, I'll give it a try, after all, I've just been admitted to Professor Dong's Ph.D., so I can't guarantee success.
But I will try my best. If I can invite Professor Dong to be a consultant for this project, the success rate will be greatly improved, and I can also balance study and work without any delay. "
Jiang Nansun nodded and agreed to try to invite him, but she suddenly thought that Wang Yongzheng was Professor Dong's favorite student, so it would be more appropriate for him to invite him.
In addition, when Zhang Anren reported her, Wang Yongzheng took the initiative to help her, so she just regarded it as a favor, so Jiang Nansun expressed this idea.
After hearing her answer, Ye Jinyan turned to look at Daisy: "Now that Nansun mentioned that, it just occurred to me that the person you recommended to me before was Wang Yongzheng, right? What do you think of Nansun's proposal? Is he suitable to join this project?"
"It was indeed suitable before, but it's not suitable now. Nansun is enough for this project. Wang Yongzheng and Nansun are both literary and artistic. If the two of them only care about things like feelings and ignore the cost issue, it will not be good for the project.
This project itself isn't profitable. If the first pilot were to lose money, the board would have objections. And Tang Xin, you and I both know her personality. She's currently in charge of both the project and design departments, and she wouldn't approve of a project with no visible profit.
After saying that, Daisy rolled her eyes at her naive niece. She had wanted to bring the two of them together before, but now with Han Tao's intervention, and she still needed the support of Han Tao, the director of Jingyan Group, she had given up the idea.
Ye Jinyan nodded. He had already read Wang Yongzheng's profile, and for him, this type of employee was not his type. He liked young people with ideas, but they had to follow the rules, and Wang Yongzheng did not have this.
Previously, in the Songjiang Hotel project, Wang Yongzheng had secretly changed the paint brand, which Ye Jinyan could not accept.
Although he also wanted to present a good effect, this behavior violated the contract and regulations. Although the school did not pursue it, Jingyan Group will never allow such a thing to happen again.
Before, due to Daisy and Professor Dong's face, Ye Jinyan was reluctant to refuse, especially since Daisy recommended it personally. But now Daisy herself has rejected it, which is the best result.
"Alright, since you've already said it's inappropriate, then let's leave Wang Yongzheng's matter for now. However, if you have any good suggestions for the library project, let's talk about it while we have time today so that Nansun and the others can learn from it."
"Okay, let's just chat!"
………………
An hour later, under the bright lights, a BMW 7 Series was driving slowly.
Ye Jinyan leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and recalled the previous events, as well as the conversation with Daisy.
After a long time, he took a long breath, picked up his phone and sent a message to Daisy: "Come back, let's fulfill our dream together. We don't have time to miss it again."
Daisy received the message, replied and put down her phone. She had returned to the hotel and was sitting on a chair on the balcony, enjoying the breeze on her face and recalling many past events in her mind.
I don't know how long it took before she picked up the phone again and called Han Tao: "Xiao Han, I've decided to reply to Jingyan. Tomorrow's board meeting still needs your support."
"Got it, don't worry, Auntie. I will attend the board meeting on time and have someone prepare the contract."
"Well, thank you. I'll treat you and Nansun to dinner tomorrow night. Also call Suosuo."
"I'm sorry, Auntie, I might not be able to tomorrow night. I have a cocktail party to attend, so let's do it another day. You're not leaving anyway, so you have plenty of time."
"Okay, you can go ahead and do your thing first. Come over if you have time. If you don't have time, come over next time."
"Okay, goodbye, auntie!"
"See you!"

Chapter 412 Ode to Joy Five Beauties Reunite
After sending Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo to the old villa on Fuxing Road, Han Tao went straight back to Ode to Joy. He planned to talk to Qu Xiaoxiao about Jingyan's replacement of air-conditioning suppliers and the Xie Group.
At this time, the five girls from the 22nd floor of Building 19 of Ode to Joy were all gathered at Andy's house. Qu Xiaoxiao was preparing to receive the inspection team because of the order introduced by Yao Bin, so she came over early and took advantage of the time before dinner to learn from Andy.
Qiu Yingying talked about the development of her online store, the results of the survey she and Guan Juer conducted, data analysis and other issues.
Fan Shengmei didn't say much today. She was very tired recently. In addition to dealing with calls from her mother and brother asking for money, she also had to go to a coffee shop near the community to study part-time.
Everyone was busy, so for the sake of convenience, Andy did not choose any dishes that were too complicated for this dinner. He planned to have hot pot again, and it was a simple version. The ingredients were all purchased from the supermarket at the entrance of the community.
After the beef, mutton, mushrooms, various meatballs and vegetables were served, the bottom of the pot was boiled.
Andy asked everyone to sit down, then said, "If I remember correctly, this is the only time the five of us girls will have dinner together, right?"
Qu Xiaoxiao nodded: "It's true, this is really the first group activity for the five beauties from Ode to Joy."
"Ode to Joy Five Beauties, you mean us?"
Guan Juer took off her glasses that were blocked by the heat, pointed at herself in surprise, and had a silly look on her face.
She felt that it was okay to call Sister Fan and Andy beauties, and Qu Xiaoxiao's appearance was also exquisite, but what kind of beauty was she?
Qiu Yingying took Guan Ju'er's hand and comforted her: "Guan Guan, if you take off your glasses and put on some make-up, you will definitely be a beauty, unlike me, no one likes you."
"Yingying, please stop laughing at me. I've never put on makeup before, and I don't know how to do it. I don't think I'll ever have a chance to become a beautiful woman."
In fact, it’s not that Guan Juer lacks confidence, but that over the years, she has become accustomed to being treated as an ugly duckling.
Seeing that the two little sisters were not confident, Fan Shengmei encouraged them, "Xiao Qiu, you and Guan Guan should be more confident. You are so cute, how could no one like you? Guan Guan just doesn't pay enough attention to dressing up. Later, Sister Fan will teach you how to put on makeup and dress. You will definitely be beautiful like her."
"Thank you, Sister Fan!" Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying nodded vigorously after hearing Fan Shengmei's encouragement.
After taking a closer look, Qu Xiaoxiao smiled and sighed, "Xiao Qiu is the type of girl next door. She doesn't need to dress up specially, she's still very cute.
As for Guan Guan, you really have a great foundation, especially your height and long legs. I'm so envious!"
Guan Juer is tall and has a well-proportioned figure. Qu Xiaoxiao is really envious of her. Among the girls on the 22nd floor, she is the only one who is only about 1.5 meters tall, less than 1.6 meters. This is a pain in her heart.
Hearing this, Fan Shengmei nodded and agreed, "Apart from Guan Guan's not-so-broad-mindedness, there's really no flaw in her figure.
If she puts on contact lenses, ties her hair up to reveal her delicate facial features, and then matches it with a clear makeup base, she will definitely be a pure and sexy, very heart-warming girl!
Just like Xiaoqu said, Guan Guan's long legs are also very sexy and attractive. If she puts on a skirt, revealing her delicate collarbone and slender swan neck, she will definitely look like a goddess.
When Qiu Yingying heard Fan Shengmei praising Guan Juer, she couldn't help but touch her body with her little hands and said with a smile:
"Sister Fan is absolutely right. Guan Guan has such great skin and a great figure. I'm so jealous."
"Yingying, that's annoying!"
The teasing from several people, coupled with Qiu Yingying's involvement, made Guan Juer feel a little embarrassed, and her face turned red with shame.
After playing around for a while, Qu Xiaoxiao suddenly asked: "Why haven't I seen Big Brother Han in the community these two days? Has he come back to live recently?"
"No, I haven't seen him for two or three days."
"Yeah, I was planning to report the situation to Brother Han. I knocked for a long time yesterday but no one opened the door."
"I haven't seen it either. Sister Andy has been taking me to work these days. He seems to be busy with a case. I heard Brother Han mention it before."
Fan Shengmei and others shook their heads, saying that they hadn't seen Han Tao return to Ode to Joy for several days.
Andy was in contact with Han Tao every day, so he said, "Han Tao is the CLO of Jingyan Group. There's a case that's reached a critical point over there, and they're preparing a project, so he has to personally oversee it. He hasn't been home for the past few days."
Hearing this, Qu Xiaoxiao nodded, thought for a moment, and asked, "Sister Fan, didn't you say you were planning to open a coffee shop? Brother Han asked me to help you. How is it going?"
Fan Shengmei sighed: "We are new to this industry, so we are still learning. It will probably take about a month to see results."
Qu Xiaoxiao pondered for a moment and suggested, "Actually, it doesn't have to be that complicated. Aren't you focusing on small but fine products? I think you and Xiaoqiu can learn the basics and then open a small shop to try your hand.
In this way, you can accumulate experience in the process of operation, and when the store is really as good as expected, you can directly join the professional team and learn it slowly."
"That's a good idea. You can talk to Han Tao about it. No one is born with the ability to manage business. Xiao Guan is preparing for an MBA, so you can all learn it."
Andy nodded and agreed with Qu Xiaoxiao's idea.
Fan Shengmei nodded and said, "Since you all think it's okay, I'll go talk to Han Tao and see what he thinks."
"Don't wait, I'll call him now to ask if he's done with his work and whether he'll be back today."
After saying that, Qu Xiaoxiao took out her cell phone and dialed the number hurriedly. After the call was connected, before Han Tao could say anything, Qu Xiaoxiao asked delicately:
"Dear Brother Han, what are you busy with now?"
"I just got off work and will be at the community soon. Have you returned to Ode to Joy? If you have, I'll come find you. I have something to talk to you about."
Hearing Han Tao's answer, Qu Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, turned on the hands-free function and said, "Guess!"
"What are you guessing? Do you think I'm a child? Still guessing!"
Han Tao replied unhappily, then opened the door of the Pullman and got out.
Hearing Han Tao's words, Qu Xiaoxiao replied with a smile, "If you don't want to guess, then don't guess. Why are you so fierce? Guan Guan, Sister Fan and I are all having hot pot at Andy's house. Do you want to come over?"
"Oh, then I'll go to Andy's place and chat with Andy and the others. Do you need me to bring anything over?"
Han Tao asked, then whispered to Yang Dongxu to go back and rest, and walked towards the elevator alone.
"Why don't you bring some beer? Beer is the best way to enjoy hot pot, but Andy only has red wine!"
After saying that, Qu Xiaoxiao suddenly thought of something and added, "By the way, Brother Han, take the bottle of champagne you gave me last time. Let's drink it while we chat after dinner!"
Han Tao rolled his eyes when he heard her words and said, "How dare you open your mouth like that? That's the 02 vintage collector's edition of Dom Perignon. Are you planning to drink it for fun?"
"Stingy!"
Qu Xiaoxiao snorted and said, "It's only 31888, why are you so stingy? You're such a big boss, those bottles of champagne wouldn't even be considered mid-range in your wine cabinet!"
Hearing Qu Xiaoxiao's words, Han Tao laughed and said, "Am I reluctant to spend money? This collector's edition champagne is hard to come by. These bottles I have were given to me by others."
"Alright, alright, take it and we'll be waiting for you!"
Qu Xiaoxiao knew he was back, so she hung up the phone without saying much.
.....................
Chapter 413: Planning to Acquire Xie Group
After playing around for a while, everyone was exhausted and out of breath. Andy looked at the lively living room and the youthful girls, and smiled happily.
After a while, everyone finally stopped fighting. After a short break, Qu Xiaoxiao looked at Han Tao and asked:
"By the way, Brother Han, you said before that you wanted to tell me something. What is it?"
"Don't you want to make the company bigger and stronger and achieve a huge breakthrough in your career? Now there is a good opportunity. If you succeed, your father will no longer ignore your existence and efforts."
"what chance?"
Qu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, but as if she had thought of something, they dimmed quickly again, and then she smiled bitterly and said, "It's useless even if I have the chance. Now I need you and Andy to give me advice on such a small project.
Moreover, the company is just starting out. Even if it has sufficient funds, it still won’t be able to achieve any breakthroughs in a short period of time.
Han Tao smiled and said, "Actually, if you want to develop quickly, the best way is to leverage. Air conditioners still have a huge market in China. Although the Qu Group doesn't have the corresponding connections and technology, we can just acquire a company with solid technology."
And now you have the technical support of the GI brand, so it won't be difficult to develop. Smart homes have become increasingly popular in recent years. If you can become a leading domestic company in this field, you may not care as much about everything the Qu Group has.
"Brother Han, is the smart home you're talking about very different from what we use now?"
Qu Xiaoxiao was a little confused. Her family started out in the building materials business, so they were not very familiar with this area. They only came into contact with air conditioning because of the Lei with Qu Lianjie.
"Of course it's different. The smart home you are exposed to is just an early stage, and there is actually a lot of room for development.
Have you ever thought about making your home's electrical equipment intelligent by relying on communication technology and artificial intelligence technology, and connecting them through a small app in your hand, so that air conditioners, water heaters and other home appliances can be remotely controlled via the Internet?
In this case, turning it on and off in advance according to demand and the time you arrive home would be a huge improvement and advantage.
For example, when you return home at night, the lights in your home will turn on automatically, the speakers will automatically play your favorite music, and the water heater will preheat in advance.
