Jian Xin asked again: "Then what have you been doing recently?"

"The main thing is to take classes in Chinese opera," Zhu Momo said, and suddenly became a little sluggish: "Simon has said that I am not suitable to be an actor, and the filming is just to show my face, but my mother, anyway, I am now being Stuck in a Chinese opera, my mother asked Simon to arrange a spot for me as a special auditor."

Listening to Zhu Momo's complaining tone, Jian Xin said with a smile: "You are not satisfied with this. How many people want to enter the Chinese opera can't get in."

Zhu Momo sat up straight, still pouted dissatisfiedly: "How about we change?"

Jian Xin shook her head immediately: "No change."

Zhu Momo looked at her with contempt, then remembered something, took out a box of discs from her bag, and said to the two women: "Look, I bought it at a VCD stall by chance, and there are all five sessions, that one The peddler said that the recent sale is very good. This is the VCD of the 11th Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. I even think it must be made by Simon. Not only did it push the two of you to CCTV, but the show was only broadcast on November 18th. Why do they appear almost simultaneously here, with Chinese subtitles, faster than domestic pirated movies.”

Jian Xin listened to Zhu Momo's sour words, and finally looked at the disc.

The plastic box of the outer packaging is quite exquisite. In addition to the words of the Victoria's Secret underwear show, the photos of the two women are also quite conspicuous among the silhouettes of supermodels.

Tao Yuelei also poked her head over to watch, and she was almost certain in her heart that the man must have arranged for them, just like the last CCTV interview, the other party needed some footage from the Victoria's Secret show as material, and they didn't need to contact them, someone would take the initiative to send it come over.Moreover, after the interview about them was broadcast last week, in the past few days, at least the active contact of relatives and friends in China made them realize the influence of the whole matter.

Unexpectedly, there is such a thing.

After looking at it for a while, Jian Xin couldn't wait to see the contents of the disc, but she didn't forget Zhu Momo next to her, and asked again: "By the way, Momo, how are Jill and Annie doing?"

In fact, the two daughters of Jian Xin and Jill Pector in China are in more frequent contact than Zhu Momo. They said that they came back this time and greeted them in advance, because Jill did not come to greet them because of something.

After the initial excitement and joy of reuniting after a long absence, Zhu Momo calmed down a bit and realized something. Hearing Jian Xin asked another point, Zhu Momo did not perfunctory and said: "Jill and the others are negotiating a large villa real estate recently. It is said that the total value of the project is 10 billion, and I have been very busy recently." Having said that, Zhu Momo still couldn't hold back, and asked: "You must know these things, right?"

Jian Xin nodded calmly: "Yes, but there must be no details that you know here."

"Actually, I don't know much. If I didn't hide it well, I'm afraid my mother will take back the money I put on Jill's side."

Simon gave a few girls a living allowance at one time, not much, and the girls didn't spend it immediately, but used it as an investment fund.

Jian Xin paused when Zhu Momo said this, but didn't say any more.

It's just that the atmosphere in the car has changed a lot unconsciously.

Back to the courtyard house in Maoer Hutong, Nanluoguxiang, it was already evening.

Jian Xin and his group had just set up the room under the welcome of Jiangshan Wu sisters here, and Jill Pector and Zhao Anni rushed back. Compared with Zhu Momo, who was rejected, Jian Xin's two daughters and Jill were still the same. Getting close, it was another greeting.

Then, Chen Qing, who had been busy all day outside, did not return until night fell.

Lin Su has been following up the IPO project of China Telecom which is getting closer to the roadshow in the south, while Chen Qing is away from her body and busy with her own affairs.

When she got home, she was so tired that she simply greeted Jian Xin and her two daughters, and Chen Qing couldn't wait to take a hot bath to relax.

I'm really tired today.

In the morning, I went to a big yamen in Dongcheng District, and was personally received by a big leader, and talked about things in Ukraine.

To some extent, it was actually Chen Qing asking for it.

In an email correspondence with his boss, Simon talked about letting Carlyle send a research team to Ukraine to try to find talents in the construction machinery field of the former Soviet Union from Ukraine, and casually talked about the Black Sea Shipyard and the like.

After some investigation, Chen Qing found out what the Black Sea Shipyard meant, so she happened to mention it when discussing the real estate project in Haidian District with an official from Beijing two days ago.

Unexpectedly, it was immediately noticed by the top, and was called over today to investigate.

Of course, she knows what the higher-ups want, but, regarding this matter, Chen Qing does not dare to pull the tiger's skin to pull the banner. There is really not much she can do, and everyone knows that even if the former Soviet Union is now a Dilapidated, but being stared at by the entire West, some things are still difficult to achieve domestically.

However, Chen Qing certainly did not forget to sell well, saying that she would try her best, and also mentioned that she had direct business dealings with Ukraine.

Since they talked to her, the higher-ups obviously already knew about it.

In any case, it will definitely be a good thing in the future for the several major projects that Carlyle is advancing, and even the foreign trade business in her hands.

As for... She can only do what she can.

After all, some things, once done too far, will involve human life, and she doesn't want to get involved too deeply.

After the meeting in the morning, the afternoon also continued.

Can't go home until dark.

Soaking in the comfortable bathtub, Chen Qing carefully sorted out today's meeting in her mind, and before she knew it, more than half an hour had passed.

When he came out again, he still didn't express much about the arrival of Jian Xin and Tao Yuelei.After all, she has already done enough things to the two women in private, and, after all, everyone is the woman next to Simon, and there is a natural competition. If she can do something by herself, it is already considered good, and she cannot ask for more.

At dinner, instead, they discussed the Rose Garden project with Jill, which was what she cared most about.

Chapter 1071

"In a week at most, we will be able to complete the review of all registered debts of RMB 10 billion in Rose Garden. Judging from the current situation, as we expected, only about 60% of the debts that need to be borne by this project in the end, and the rest are some The debts owed by the management, which has no real rights and interests in this project, can be easily divested without any accidents, and even if we finally initiate a lawsuit, we can easily win it.”

Inside the courtyard restaurant.

Chen Qing heard Jill say this, and interrupted: "Jill, I have to remind you of this point, you need to give up your thinking that Americans are always suing, this project, even if we fail to make it, there can't be any public lawsuits occur."

Jill was puzzled: "Chen, I don't understand?"

There are other people in the restaurant, Chen Qing didn't go too deep, just said: "The city government wants us to take over this project, it just doesn't want any negative news to come out, legal proceedings are one of them, so you just need to remember this That is, other things, you will gradually understand later.”

"Okay," Jill nodded, and continued: "It is estimated that the debt of 6 million yuan will be sufficient. If there is no accident, we can reduce it to less than 5 million yuan. This is very cost-effective, because compared with four years ago, At present, the land price in that area has more than tripled, so it is faster than the original 1.5 million land, but the value of the land itself is currently more than 5 million."

Because of the estrangement of Jian Xin's two daughters, Zhu Momo, who was quietly depressed, heard this, and couldn't help interjecting: "In this case, why did the city government push the business to us? There should be many people rushing to do it, right?"

Chen Qing looked at the girl and asked back, "Can you take out 5 million?"

Zhu Momo blinked her eyes and probably understood.

According to a man's net worth, 5 million yuan, equivalent to less than 6000 million U.S. dollars, that is a small amount of money for two or three sets of manors. However, for other capital, it probably becomes a large amount of money that cannot be used at will.

The same is true.

However, Zhu Momo only thought of one aspect.

First of all, the environment of China's real estate industry is not good. Since the regulation in 93, it is still in a tight state. Under strict regulation, the industry as a whole is in a downturn, which inevitably limits the investment enthusiasm of domestic and foreign real estate developers.

Secondly, this project is really too big, perhaps far less exaggerated than the later direct construction of cities, but now in 1996, the Rose Garden in Changping District, Beijing, covering an area of ​​800 mu, is the largest villa real estate project in the country, which leads to The capital that wants to take over is not strong enough, and powerful investors dare not take over at will.

Finally, there is the interest involved behind this project is really entangled.If it wasn't for the government's intervention this time, it could play a certain role in cutting off the mess. Even Simon would not intervene casually.When Chen Qing talked with Jill privately, she said that the right time to intervene in the Rose Garden is after the government intervenes and before the project goes bankrupt.

It's just that I didn't expect to be approached by the superiors.

Since Ben intended to take over and deal with this big trouble, he could make the official owe a favor, and his boss also agreed, so he finally started to take it.

Jill was drinking the sweet soup, seeing that Zhu Momo didn't intend to speak again, he continued: "Speaking of this, the government official in charge of following up this project asked about funding today, and they probably also worried that we would be like Just like the previous few investors, they only want to... well, in Chinese idioms, it is empty-handed white wolf, heh, this is a very interesting word."

Jill at the dinner table has been chatting with Chen Qing in Chinese. Hearing what the girl said at this time, Jian Xin, who just arrived today, realized it. Compared with Jill's awkward Chinese at the beginning, it has only been a few months. Niu's Chinese level has improved by leaps and bounds, and she doesn't even have much accent.

Upon discovering this, Jian Xin's inexplicable pressure doubled.

At the dinner table at this time, whether it was Chen Qing or Jill, they seemed to be the type who were both good-looking and very capable, but she and Tao Yuelei, apart from this skin, could hardly have anything else to rely on.

From this point of view, I should bring up the fashion design study that I unknowingly put down because I was too busy in the past few months and my life was too comfortable.

Seeing Jill talking about this, Chen Qing thought for a while and said, "The director's surname is Li, right? Tomorrow... um, forget it, I will invite him to dinner at noon tomorrow, and you will come with me when the time comes. In the name of Pequot Real Estate Investment Company, a sum of money is directly transferred to the country."

Jill nodded, feeling that Chen Qing's actions were superfluous. It's okay to send the money in directly, and there is no need to talk about it.

However, the girl also probably thought that there must be rules that she doesn't know about.

Still have to study hard.

Of course, Chen Qing had her own considerations.

About this project, although her boss personally approved it, but not many people know about it in China. This is also what Chen Qing deliberately did according to her boss's mind. Someone likes to be the 'behind the scenes'.

Therefore, this project, which is currently being negotiated with all parties in name, is a "Pektor Real Estate Investment Company" that was just registered in Hong Kong some time ago, and directly uses a random name of Jill's surname instead of the one listed by the city government. Wilson Group.Moreover, even at the next level, the parent company of Pequot Real Estate Investment Company is still a shell company registered in the Cayman Islands, and in short, it does not directly point to the Westeros system.

Therefore, even if they knew about Chen Qing's background, this matter would inevitably make the city government suspicious.

If there is another toss that wants to be an empty-handed white wolf, then the whole project will probably be completely rotten and will not end.

The best way to dispel the doubts above is to temporarily lower your power.

To put it simply, it is to transfer a sum of real cash to the country, which is similar to a deposit. This is probably what Director Li who is in charge of following up this project and even more people behind the scenes are looking forward to. It couldn't be simpler, the most indispensable thing for the Westeros system now is cash.

In order to completely dispel the doubts of the higher authorities at once, Chen Qing has already figured out the amount, which is 5000 million US dollars.

A large amount of funds equivalent to more than 4 million yuan, or foreign exchange, is nothing to the entire city of Beijing, but it will be a big favor to Director Li of the government office appointed by the above to follow up this project. The other party said which bank the money was put in after entering the country, that is that bank, and the relevant bank received such a large deposit, which is also a political achievement for the president.

In fact, the network is built up little by little.

This time it is giving, and next time you can ask for help. After many contacts, you will unknowingly form a closer relationship of interests than acquaintances and friends.

Chen Qing knows these things without a teacher. As an American, Jill, even with a high IQ and high education graduated from Princeton, after all, the cultural environment is different, and it takes more time to understand these things.

Talking like this, when the dinner was about to end, Chen Qing said to Jian Xin and the others: "The boss has opened up a good situation for you, like the CCTV interview some time ago, and the VCD of the fifth Victoria's Secret. You may not I know, it’s just a channel I contacted here, and 500 million Victoria’s Secret CDs have been released in China, and distributors have asked for more in just a week. You can imagine your popularity. If you don’t catch up, you can even push you to go Let’s show your face in the Spring Festival Gala. Let’s watch it next year. And Xiao Han, you have to work hard. In short, it’s up to you to see where you go. To earn money, consider your own positions, you are now world-class supermodels, you have a good style, understand?"

Whether it was Jian Xin's two daughters or An Xiaohan, even if they were a little uncomfortable because of Chen Qing's condescension, they still subconsciously nodded in agreement.

Chen Qing finished the last sip of sweet soup, put down the spoon, and did not forget to wish Momo, looked at the girl and said with a smile: "Momo will stay here tonight, but the rooms in the inner courtyard are already full, you and Wuling only Can live in the yard outside."

Mo Wuling was about to speak, but Zhu Momo rushed to suppress the grievance in his heart, "Okay."

Mo Wuling noticed Zhu Momo's expression, hesitated a little, and didn't say any more.After all, this girl has inherited some of her elder sister's character traits in her bones.However, Mo Wuling would never tell his sister what happened tonight, otherwise he would definitely be punished.

After Chen Qing arranged this, she ignored the thoughts of the women in the restaurant and got up to go out. Jiang Shanwu's sisters, who were dressed on one side of Chen Qing's side, also followed her out, leaving only the other maids in the courtyard to help. Cleaning up the mess, Zhu Momo couldn't hold back and made a 'dogleg' mouth shape, which happened to be seen by Zhao Anni who was opposite. The girl was not guilty at all, and even gave her a glare.

Zhao Anni could only lower her head and continue eating, thinking that she had provoked someone.However, maybe one day when I see the big boss again, I should take the initiative, just in case... See what qualifications you have to stare at yourself.

Humph.

After Chen Qing left, everyone dispersed quickly.

Even though he was arranged outside and entered the yard, Zhu Momo didn't leave after all, and he didn't take the initiative to go to Jian Xin's side to make fun of himself.However, after the waitress who was waiting for her to come to the room left, she tossed and tumbled on the big bed, and for the first time, the thought of wanting to make her mother rebel came into her mind.

On the other side, Jian Xin and Tao Yuelei were also assigned to the outer courtyard. They had never lived in the inner courtyard before, so they didn't feel too much wrong.

There is no time.

Back in his room, An Xiaohan, who was also dawdling and staying decisively after Jian Xin asked to stay, introduced the domestic situation to the two girls, and only then did the two girls realize how popular they were in the country.

After several months of publicity, the popularity of the two women exploded after the broadcast of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show and the interview with "Oriental Time and Space".

It’s just that in the last week, I found out that they will return to China in the near future. Even though Elite China released the tone of the cooperation interview with less than 10 yuan in advance, An Xiaohan still received hundreds of business performances, endorsements, and dramas from various parties. appointments, interviews, and so on.

However, even without Chen Qing’s reminder at the dinner, Elite hired An Xiaohan, who has worked in the fashion circles in Europe and China through the headhunting team of Cersei Capital China Economic Research Institute, and knew how to package and position the two women.

At this stage, China is in the era of big marketing, and people with a little bit of fame can receive the attention of merchants.As the only two Chinese supermodels to appear on the runway of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, the two daughters of Jian Xin were even reported by CCTV. In addition, the VCDs of the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show are popular in China. It's too easy to make money if you want to win glory' level of fame.

It's just that everything goes too far.

Just like what Chen Qing reminded, if they are willing to earn money, whether it is the endorsement of Sanwu health care products or the opening of nightclub commercial performances, they will definitely make a lot of money in the short term, but it is estimated that there will be no more soon. All these regular big brands attach great importance to the reputation of their spokespersons, and it is impossible to cooperate with celebrities with too low a style.

On the other hand, models are eating a youthful meal after all, and it is of course the best if they can make more money in the short term.

This requires scale.

Jian Xin's two daughters discussed this with An Xiaohan until late at night, and got up early the next day when it was dawn.

This time I went directly to Beijing because I had to work on two things that had already been finalized. One was Jian Xin's endorsement contract with Simmons in China, and the other was an exclusive interview with Vogue magazine.

The endorsement of Simmons was apparently handled by Simon.

As an internationally renowned mattress brand still controlled by Apollo Management Company, Simmons has been expanding in recent years, and the Chinese market will naturally not be let go.Simon didn't pay much attention to it before, because Jian Xin and his daughter only got to know it, and found that the Simmons team still committed the common fault of Westerners' arrogance and prejudice. Although they didn't let go of the Chinese market, they didn't pay much attention to it, so they personally intervened.

At present, Simmons has re-enacted the 1997 China marketing plan, one of which is to increase the number of spokespersons and TV advertisements.A certain spokesperson was also directly appointed by Simon, and Jian Xin, who had a dignified and elegant temperament, was just right.

As for the "Vogue" interview, this fashion magazine has nothing to do with "Vogue", but a periodical established by the China National Tourism Administration in 1993. It not only belongs to the country prefix, but also is currently the most influential fashion magazine in China.

The five-entry courtyard was so spacious that it could be called empty. The women didn't get together again during breakfast. Before leaving, Jian Xin and the two daughters just found Chen Qing who was also planning to go out to say goodbye.

Zhu Momo is the last to get up, the last to have breakfast, and naturally the last to go out.

As an auditor in the performance class of the 96th grade of Chinese opera, she usually only goes to some professional classes, and this morning happened to have a physical class.

After packing her bag, Zhu Momo, who planned to walk to the nearby Chinese Opera class, endured all night, and before going out, she finally said to her aunt: "I have decided, I will live here from now on, and I won't go back to the apartment in Hepingli. Auntie, if you tell my mother, I will run away from home and go back to the United States."

During this period of time, knowing about Zhu Momo's experience in the United States, and seeing a certain man's splendor with his own eyes, Mo Wuling didn't have the rush to call his sister directly, but just listened to Zhu Momo's obviously angry tone , still couldn't help retorting: "Your mother took away your passport, how can you go back to the United States?"

Thinking of this makes me even more depressed. My mother probably thought that she might have such an idea very early on, and took away her passport early on. However, Zhu Momo quickly said: "I'll just secretly reissue one, anyway. , you tell my mother, I will run away from home."

Mo Wuling leaned on the threshold, looking at his niece: "Even if I don't tell you, what do you plan to do in the future?"

Zhu Momo pulled the shoulder strap of the satchel and said firmly: "That's it, I will live here."

"That..." Mo Wuling paused, and said, "Momo, I'm talking about a long time later, you know, he definitely won't be able to marry you."

"Then, let's talk about it later," Zhu Momo said, and couldn't help it: "Auntie, why don't you go back to Tianjin University, finish your graduate studies, and stay in school according to your original plan, there is no need to follow me .”

Mo Wuling said: "Even if I agree, your mother doesn't agree, and, to be honest, the salary is too high to be your assistant now, so I can't bear to resign."

At the beginning, Mo Yiling asked Simon to have two assistants for his daughter, and directly gave up a place for his younger sister. Mo Wuling therefore gave up his postgraduate studies and his job as an undergraduate counselor on the ladder to stay in school.Mo Wuling was still a little hesitant at first, but after learning about the salary of the job, and the request of his elder sister who is very authoritative at home, he finally agreed.

He even brought in one of his classmates to occupy another spot.
