After signing the agreement in the morning, Li Dong met with some of the former executives of Carrefour and some of the executives recruited by Chen Lang in the afternoon.
After giving these people a reassurance, Li Dong's mission in Shanghai was more or less completed.
It was already night time after he was done with these matters.
…
Wang Jiang Ge.
One of the most famous restaurants in Shanghai.
Here, one could enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Bund. It was a different feeling to enjoy the food while admiring the night view of Shanghai.
Wang Jiang Ge was also the most famous marriage proposal holy land.
Here, the success rate of a marriage proposal was as high as 100%.
It was not strange for there to be such a high success rate. Usually, both parties knew what would happen when they came to Wang Jiang Ge.
If they really rejected, they would not agree to come over. Naturally, the marriage proposal would not fail.
In a private room on the top floor.
Li Dong poured a glass of red wine for Yuan Xue and the two of them drank together.
After a while, Yuan Xue asked softly, "Why did you want to come here for a meal?"
"I heard someone mention it once. The scenery here is not bad. It overlooks the Huangpu River, so I came."
Li Dong made it sound simple, but Yuan Xue knew it was not simple.
The private room on the top floor could only serve one table a day.
There were countless people making reservations every day. Usually, they had to queue for a few months before they could get a seat.
Li Dong had only been in Shanghai for a day, but he was able to get this place.
Of course, this was considered normal.
After all, there were not many restaurants in the country that could reject Li Dong. Moreover, Wang Jiang Ge was not the best.
Yuan Xue smiled and teased, "Are you bullying the good?"
Li Dong had obviously cut the queue this time. She did not know how the guests who were originally scheduled to eat today were arranged.
Li Dong smiled and said, "How could that be? The restaurant coordinated and said that it would be free for two days. When they heard that it was free, they immediately agreed."
Although Wang Jiang Ge's expenses were not too extravagant, a meal with some extra food and wine would cost more than ten thousand.
Many people were willing to save this amount of money.
Unless the time was really fixed and the proposal had to be made on this day, most people would not refuse.
Li Dong didn't want to bully others in this aspect. Anything that could be solved with money was not a big deal to him.
Yuan Xue rolled her eyes at him. What a show-off!
The two of them stopped talking and looked outside. The scenery under the night sky was especially alluring.
The Bund, the Huangpu River, the Oriental Pearl Tower looming across the river …
After watching for a while, Li Dong said, "Lujiazui is just across the street. I heard that the World Financial Center is about to be completed."
"Hmm, next month, I think."
"Tell me, if I bought the World Financial Center and stood at the highest level, overlooking the entire Shanghai market, what would it feel like?"
Yuan Xue looked at him in surprise. After a while, she said, "Are you serious?"
Li Dong laughed and said, "Just kidding. I can't afford it now."
World Financial Center, 492 meters high, 101 floors above ground.
In 2008, before the downtown building was built, the financial center was the tallest building in Hua Xia.
The construction time alone, due to various reasons, exceeded 10 years, and the total investment was more than 7 billion.
If he wanted to buy the financial center, not to mention how difficult it was, just the funds alone was a big problem. Li Dong did not have the money to buy it now.
Li Dong said, "I can't afford to buy it now. I'm going to move the Shanghai branch Far away there."
The securities building where the Carrefour headquarters was located was a bit old, and it was not very eye-catching in Lujiazui.
Moving to the financial center could be considered as a complete separation from the past.
In the afternoon, when Li Dong heard from Chen Lang that the financial center had started to be rented out, he had this thought. Most of the people there were in the world's top 500 companies. From there, he could clearly feel how the other companies managed and developed.
In a small place, Far away had always been number one. After a long time, it was easy for people to slack off.
As for the rent, Li Dong did not care much about it. If spending more money could make people more vigilant, he was willing to pay.
Yuan Xue heard him mention this and smiled. "As long as you're happy. Anyway, you don't lack money."
"Makes sense."
The two of them chatted as they drank.
After dinner, when they came down from the top floor, Yuan Xue suddenly pinched Li Dong.
Li Dong was a little confused at first, but then he reacted.
However, Li Dong still pretended to be ignorant and said with grievance, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing!" Yuan Xue snorted.
Rubbing his waist, Li Dong smiled bitterly. "I didn't provoke you today, right? Why are you falling out with me now …"
"Bastard!"
Yuan Xue glared at him. She was in a good mood before.
Women were actually happy to come to Wang Jiang Ge for dinner.
Think about it, this was a holy place for marriage proposals. Generally, people who came here to eat, unless they were husband and wife, were almost all young couples proposing.
When Li Dong asked her to come here for dinner, she thought that Li Dong had this idea.
As a result, during the meal, this guy talked about the scenery and the future. Yuan Xue waited for the whole night, but she did not hear him say anything else.
When she went downstairs, she finally understood that this guy was really just here for dinner.
Although she had thought about this before, it really happened. Yuan Xue, who had been looking forward to it all night, could not help but feel depressed.
Seeing that she was angry, Li Dong quickly comforted her.
After coaxing her for a while, Yuan Xue's mood gradually eased.
Although she eased, Yuan Xue still did not give Li Dong a good look.
When they got in the car, Yuan Xue said, "Brother Tan, go to Lin 'an District and drop me off."
Li Dong said helplessly, "I have to go back to Pingchuan tomorrow. Are you really so cruel?"
Yuan Xue snorted and ignored him. Li Dong squeezed her hand.
Just as Yuan Xue was about to struggle free, she suddenly felt something on her fingers. It was cold.
She raised her hand and looked at it. A crystal flashed in front of her.
Li Dong, who was next to her, acted as if nothing had happened at this time, as if he did not take out the ring.
Yuan Xue looked at the ring and then looked at Li Dong. After a while, she snorted and said, "Don't try to bribe me with this thing!"
Li Dong laughed and said, "What bribe? I just picked it up on the road. I thought it was quite suitable for you, so I put it on you. "
"Boring trick!"
Yuan Xue snorted again, but there was a trace of joy in the depths of her eyes.
As for the ring that someone picked up, he naturally would not return it.
As for why it was a snowflake-shaped diamond and why it matched the diamond on the necklace, no one asked about it.
Li Dong grinned and did not speak again.
And a certain driver subconsciously forgot that Yuan Xue had just said to drop her off at the entrance of the district and drove directly to the hotel.
…
It was a lingering night.
At night, Yuan Xue was particularly cooperative and active.
When Li Dong woke up, Yuan Xue was still sleeping soundly.
Looking at the time, Li Dong did not wake her up. He quietly got up and washed up.
When Li Dong finished washing up, Yuan Xue was still asleep.
Li Dong squatted by the bed and looked at her for a while. His long eyelashes kept blinking. Obviously, Yuan Xue had already woken up.
Li Dong smiled and lowered his head to kiss her delicate cheek. He said softly, "I have to go. Won't you see me off?"
Yuan Xue still did not open her eyes, as if she was really not awake.
Li Dong waited for a while and sighed. "Then I really have to go. Call me later. If you miss me, go to Pingchuan. Or I will come to see you after I'm done with my work."
"I really have to go?"
After a few words, Yuan Xue did not say anything. Li Dong had to get up and leave.
When the footsteps disappeared, Yuan Xue slowly opened her eyes.
However, as soon as she opened her eyes, Li Dong, who had just left, suddenly came back and stared at Yuan Xue on the bed. Li Dong smiled and said, "Give me a farewell kiss, or I won't be willing to leave."
Before Yuan Xue could react, Li Dong had stepped forward and kissed her lips.
After a while, Li Dong let go of her and said, "I really have to go this time. Besides, I bought you a car in the underground garage in Lin 'an …"
"Don't talk!"
Seeing that Yuan Xue wanted to say something, Li Dong interrupted, "I know you don't like these things, but it's just a car. It's just a means of transportation. There's no need to make yourself suffer. What if you meet a pervert every day in the bus or subway? I heard that there are a lot of such perverts recently. Be careful. It's not a luxury car. It's a car worth more than 100,000 yuan. Don't you want it? "
Yuan Xue was a little unhappy at first. But after hearing what he said and the car worth more than 100,000 yuan, she thought for a moment and said, "Next time you buy something, you must ask me. Don't act first and report later!"
"Of course!"
The smile on Li Dong's face was even brighter. He did not say anything more. He hugged her and said, "I really have to go this time. If you miss me, call me. I'll come right away."
Yuan Xue nodded and did not speak.
Li Dong said a few more words and finally walked away.
…
On July 7th, Li Dong returned to Pingchuan.
As the suppliers' meeting approached, Pingchuan gradually became lively.
As soon as Li Dong returned, he had to come out to receive the heads of several large groups.
At this suppliers' meeting, many of the chairmen or CEOs attended the appointment in person. Everyone attached great importance to this cooperation.
With the further impact of the financial crisis, everyone's life was not very good now.
Far away was one of the top distributors in terms of shipping. At this time, cooperation with Far Away was beneficial.
They valued it, and Far Away also valued it.
If it were not for the special period, it would be very difficult to get so many cooperation at one time, and the conditions would not be so favorable.
…
On July 8th, Capital University held the class of 2008 graduation ceremony.
Originally, Li Dong wanted to accompany Qin Yuhan to attend. But Qin Yuhan knew that he was busy recently and did not agree.
Li Dong also felt a little guilty. He had just returned from Shanghai and was too embarrassed to go to Capital.
In addition, Qin Yuhan would be back in a few days, and Li Dong was really busy. In the end, he did not go.
For the next few days, Li Dong spent his time in meetings and drinking.
There were more than a hundred companies, and Yuan Chengdao and the rest were enough to receive the smaller companies.
However, Li Dong was embarrassed to not show up when the heads of some well-known enterprises came in person.
After a few days, Li Dong wanted to vomit whenever he smelled alcohol.
This was probably the time he drank the most in the past few years.
