Chapter 279 Peace Hotel!

Lin Wan quietly organized the documents, occasionally glancing up to exchange a glance with Kitahara Makoto, as if encouraging him with her eyes.

As the vehicle slowly started moving, they quickly drove onto the busy street. The flashing neon lights on both sides of the street added a touch of color to the night.

Looking out the car window at the scenery rushing by, Kitahara Makoto couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.

He knew that this meeting would be a significant milestone in their professional careers, and they had to give it their all.

As night fell, when Kitahara Makoto and Lin Wan arrived at the Peace Hotel, the historic building appeared solemn and elegant under the dazzling lights.

The Peace Hotel shines like a bright pearl in the bustling city's nightscape.

The Peace Hotel has a unique architectural style that blends Chinese and Western elements.

The towering, pointed clock tower stands against the night sky, shimmering with a soft light, as if telling the story of the city's history and legends.

The building's exterior walls are made of dark red stone, which, after the passage of time, appears even more rustic and elegant.

The windows are inlaid with exquisite glass, letting in warm light that reflects off the surrounding neon lights.

In front of the hotel was a wide square. The square was paved with smooth stone slabs, reflecting the surrounding light, like a silver ocean.

The square is surrounded by lush trees and blooming flowers, adding a touch of life and vitality to this solemn building.

On the other side of the square is a bustling street. The street is filled with cars and pedestrians.

The shops along the street were brightly lit, and the shop windows displayed all kinds of goods, attracting passers-by to stop and look.

In the distance, rows of skyscrapers stand side by side, their lights gleaming, creating a stark contrast with the solemn elegance of the Peace Hotel.

When Shinichi Kitahara stepped into the Peace Hotel, Lin Wan followed closely behind. The two walked side by side, experiencing together the solemn and elegant atmosphere emanating from this high-class hotel.

Their steps were calm and firm, each step revealing the importance they attached to the upcoming talks.

A well-trained waiter quickly approached, his gaze lingering on the two for a moment before he respectfully spoke:

"Good evening, Mr. Kitahara, Ms. Hayashi. We have prepared the most luxurious presidential suite for you two. Please follow me."

A waiter led Shinichi Kitahara and Wan Lin through a corridor, where the artworks on both sides appeared even more exquisite under the lights...

Their footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, creating a solemn and mysterious atmosphere.

Soon, they arrived at the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel. The door to the suite slowly opened, and the luxury and comfort inside immediately caught their eye.

The spacious interior, exquisite furniture, sophisticated decorations, and the city night view overlooking through the floor-to-ceiling windows all made them feel refreshed and relaxed.

The waiter smiled and pulled out chairs for them, gesturing for them to sit down.

The private room was already set with exquisite tableware and delicacies, the aroma of which was mouthwatering.

The waiter bowed again and said softly:

2.9 "Mr. Kitahara, Ms. Hayashi, this is dinner prepared for you two. Please let me know if you need anything."

Shinichi Kitahara and Wan Lin expressed their gratitude for the waiter's attentive service and indicated that he could leave.

They smiled at each other, both understanding the importance of this meeting.

In this elegant and tasteful private room, they will face future challenges together and strive for the company's development.

Chapter 280 Netflix President Cook

After Kitahara Shinichi and Lin Wan were seated in the presidential suite, they talked quietly, discussing the details of their upcoming meeting with Netflix CEO Tim Cook.

They exchanged opinions from time to time, their faces revealing their anticipation and emphasis on this cooperation.

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door of the private room, which then slowly opened. A distinguished-looking man in a sharp suit walked in.

His eyes were sharp and deep, and his demeanor exuded a calm and confident air. It was none other than Cook, the president of Netflix.

"Good evening, Mr. Kitahara, Ms. Hayashi."

Cook greeted the two with a smile; his voice was deep and magnetic, giving off a sense of calm and reliability.

Shinichi Kitahara and Wan Lin immediately stood up to warmly welcome Cook's arrival. Shinichi Kitahara extended his right hand, smiling, and said:

"Good evening, Mr. Cook. It's a pleasure to meet you here."

Cook shook hands firmly with Shinichi Kitahara, and then with Lin Wan. He looked around and expressed his appreciation for the luxury and comfort of the presidential suite.

"This place is really nice, thank you for the thoughtful arrangements."

The waiter promptly brought out new cutlery and chairs, and arranged a seat for Cook.

Shinichi Kitahara and Wan Lin invited Cook to sit down and signaled to the waiter that they could start serving the food.

Shinichi Kitahara smiled and asked Cook for advice:

“Mr. Cook, Netflix has achieved tremendous success in the film and television industry, which I have always admired.”

"Could you share how Netflix entered the industry and distinguished itself?"

Cook took a small sip of red wine, his eyes gleaming with reminiscence:

“Mr. Kitahara, Netflix’s start was not easy.”

“We started as a video rental company, but as the internet developed, we realized that digitalization was the future.”

"So we decided to transform and focus on streaming services."

"We have invested a lot of resources and technology to continuously optimize the user experience and provide high-quality content, which is how we have gradually begun to stand out in the film and television industry."

Kitahara Shinichi nodded in agreement:

"Indeed, digitalization and user experience are key factors in the development of the film and television industry today. So, what are Netflix's plans and strategies for the future?"

Cook put down his glass and said with a firm gaze:

"Mr. Kitahara, we firmly believe that streaming services will be the mainstream of the film and television industry in the future."

"Therefore, we will continue to increase our investment in content and technology, and continuously expand our service scope."

"We plan to launch more original content and establish closer partnerships with major production companies and creators to bring users a richer and more exciting film and television experience."

"At the same time, we will also pay attention to the development of new technologies, such as virtual reality and augmented reality, and explore more possibilities."

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Shinichi expressed his admiration for Cook's vision and planning:

“Mr. Cook, your ideas are very forward-thinking and comprehensive. I believe that under your leadership, Netflix will achieve even greater success.”

Cook responded with a smile:

"Thank you for your appreciation, Mr. Kitahara. We also look forward to cooperating with your company to jointly promote the development of the film and television industry."

Upon hearing Cook's plan, a glint of excitement flashed in Kitahara Shinichi's eyes. Kitahara leaned forward slightly, appearing even more focused and enthusiastic.

“Mr. Cook, your idea is very visionary, and I also strongly agree with the potential of streaming services in the film and television industry.”

Shinichi Kitahara said, his voice revealing anticipation and determination.

"In fact, I also have the same idea and would like to cooperate with your company on film and television projects."

Upon hearing this, Cook's face lit up with surprise, and he immediately responded:

“Mr. Kitahara, I am very interested in your proposal. At Netflix, we are always committed to finding partners with shared goals and vision to jointly promote the development of the film and television industry.”

"I believe that our cooperation will generate tremendous synergies."

Kitahara Shinichi nodded and continued:

"Yes, I really look forward to our collaboration."

“Our company has extensive experience in content creation and production, and I believe we can provide Netflix with high-quality and in-depth film and television works.”

"At the same time, we also hope to use Netflix's platform and channels to bring these works to a wider audience."

Cook smiled with satisfaction after hearing this, and said:

"This sounds like a fantastic collaboration plan."

“We at Netflix are committed to providing audiences with diverse and high-quality film and television works, and I believe that our collaboration will bring audiences more exciting content.”

Having finished their conversation, Shinichi Kitahara looked up at the wall clock, smiled, and turned to Cook, saying, "Mr. Cook, we've talked for so long, it's time to enjoy the food at the Peace Hotel."

He turned to Lin Wan and gestured to her with his eyes. Lin Wan immediately understood, stood up, and said with a smile, "I'll go and call the waiter to serve the food."

Lin Wan gracefully stepped out of the private room and gently rang the service bell in the corridor. Soon, a well-trained waiter quickly approached, bowed slightly, and asked:

"Miss Lin, is there anything you need?"

"Excuse me, we can start serving the food now."

Lin Wan answered with a smile.

The waiter nodded and said politely:

"Okay, Ms. Lin, please wait a moment."

After saying that, the waiter turned and left to go to the kitchen to inform the chefs to prepare the dishes.

Lin Wan returned to the private room and reported to Kitahara Shinichi and Cook:

"The waiter has already gone to prepare, and delicious dishes will be served soon."

As the dishes were served one after another, the atmosphere in the private room became more relaxed and pleasant.

At this moment, Lin Wan stood up, picked up her phone from the table, and with a bright smile on her face, suggested to Kitahara Shinichi and Cook:

"Gentlemen, tonight's meeting has been so pleasant, why don't we stand together and take a picture to commemorate it?"

Shinichi Kitahara and Cook both agreed upon hearing this.

They stood up, straightened their clothes, and then stood side by side in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the private room. The picturesque city night view outside the window provided the perfect backdrop for their photo.

Lin Wan adjusted the angle of her phone, stood beside them, and gently pressed the shutter button.

With a "click," this beautiful moment was captured on the phone screen.

After taking the photos, Lin Wan handed her phone to Kitahara Shinichi to look at.

In the photo, both Shinichi Kitahara and Tim Cook are smiling, their eyes revealing satisfaction with the meeting and anticipation for the future.

The city skyline behind them adds a touch of romance and mystery to the photo.

"This photo is very well taken, thank you Ms. Lin Wan."

Shinichi Kitahara handed the phone to Cook and praised him.

Cook nodded repeatedly in agreement:

"Yes, this photo is very meaningful. Thank you for the suggestion, Ms. Lin Wan."

The three sat around the dining table, enjoying the food and having a pleasant conversation.

As the last dish was cleared away, the dinner was drawing to a close. Cook wiped his mouth and smiled at Kitahara Shinichi and Lin Wan.

"The meeting tonight was very pleasant, and I thank you both for your hospitality. Now that we are partners..."

"I would like to invite you both to visit Netflix tomorrow to gain a deeper understanding of our business and culture."

Shinichi Kitahara and Lin Wan exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes. Shinichi Kitahara smiled and responded:

“Thank you very much for the invitation, Cook. We are honored to visit Netflix and gain a more direct understanding of your work environment and team atmosphere.”

Lin Wan excitedly added:

"Yes, we've always been curious about how Netflix works inside. It's fantastic to have the opportunity to see it for ourselves!"

Cook nodded in welcome:

“I’m glad you accepted the invitation. Tomorrow I will arrange for someone to give you a tour and explain our various departments and work processes in detail.”

"I hope you have a pleasant and meaningful day at Netflix."

After the banquet, Shinichi Kitahara, Wan Lin, and Cook walked out of the private room together, preparing to leave the Peace Hotel.

However, when they reached the door, they found a large group of reporters already waiting there, flashes going off constantly, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

As soon as the reporters saw Shinichi Kitahara and Cook, they swarmed around them, vying to ask questions.

"Mr. Kitahara Makoto, as a new generation of internet giant, is it possible that you will collaborate with a world-class company like Netflix?"
