Zhou Leiyun also knew that Xia Ruofei did not like Zhou Yuan. Today, he brought him to the airport to pick him up to express his attitude. Therefore, after greeting him, Zhou Leiyun warmly asked everyone to get in the car first.
When the employees saw that Zhou Leiyun, one of the richest people in the country, came to pick them up in person, they could not help but feel flattered. Even Dong Yun could not help but look at Xia Ruofei a few more times.
Dong Yun knew that Xia Ruofei's trip to Spain this time was invited by Zhou Leiyun, but she did not expect that the relationship between Xia Ruofei and Zhou Leiyun was so close. In the whole of Huaxia, there were probably not many people who could make Zhou Leiyun personally pick them up at the tarmac.
Xia Ruofei walked side by side with Zhou Leiyun in the direction of the car while introducing Dong Yun to Zhou Leiyun.
When Zhou Leiyun heard that Dong Yun was the administrative director of the Taoyuan Company, his attitude was very warm. He did not have the slightest arrogance because the Taoyuan Company was countless times smaller than Shengshi Group. Those who could accompany Xia Ruofei abroad must be his trusted subordinates. How could Zhou Leiyun neglect them?
Xia Ruofei took Dong Yun and Zhou Leiyun in the front car, and Shi Wen also sat in the back of the car. The other five people took another Mercedes-Benz business car.
After the two cars left the tarmac, they went around to the other side. Zhou Leiyun personally took Xia Ruofei and the others to go through the immigration procedures. Then everyone got in the car again, left the airport, and drove in the direction of the hotel.
Barcelona, a southern European resort, had warm sunshine all year round, beautiful beaches, and enthusiastic bikini girls. Along the way, the scenery was full of exotic scenery.
Xia Ruofei asked, "By the way, President Zhou, two employees of our company took the Huaxia Airlines flight here. They should have arrived earlier than us. Have you picked them up?"
"Don't worry! Your two employees have already arrived at the hotel! "Zhou Leiyun said with a smile," I arranged for Jiang Xiaochen to pick them up personally. "
Jiang Xiaochen was Zhou Leiyun's Chinese representative in the Espanyol club. She had been working there for several years.
"Thanks!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
Zhou Yuan sat upright in the front passenger seat, not even daring to breathe loudly. Zhou Leiyun and Xia Ruofei sat in the middle row, while Dong Yun and Shi Wen could only sit in the back row.
The wheelbase of the Mercedes-Benz business car was longer, and there were three seats in the back. Two petite girls sitting in the back would not be crowded.
Zhou Leiyun was in high spirits and kept introducing the scenery to Xia Ruofei along the way.
The city of Barcelona had a long history, and there were many places of interest in the city. Moreover, the old buildings on the European side were relatively well-preserved. Medieval buildings could often be seen standing on both sides of the road.
After Zhou Leiyun acquired RCD Espanyol, he often traveled between Huaxia and Spain. He was quite familiar with the city of Barcelona. It was no problem for him to be Xia Ruofei's tour guide.
The car drove through the streets of Barcelona and finally arrived at the Central Gran Hotel in the old town.
The hotel was located in a building in the early 20th century. The furnishings were elegant, and the exterior was full of a sense of history. However, the interior decoration was very luxurious.
Zhou Leiyun asked Zhou Yuan to take Dong Yun and the others to check in. Xia Ruofei's passport was also handed to Zhou Yuan to handle. He and Xia Ruofei sat on the sofa in the lobby and waited.
Zhou Leiyun smiled and said, "Boss Xia, this hotel does not have a presidential suite. I asked them to book a luxury suite for you. I'll have to trouble you for a while."
Zhou Leiyun owned a mansion in the wealthy district of Barcelona. He originally wanted to invite Xia Ruofei to stay at his home, but Xia Ruofei declined on the grounds that he had brought his staff with him this time.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "A luxury suite is not a problem? If it were up to me, they would have arranged a standard room for me! I'm not so spoiled. When I was a soldier, I lived in a platoon room with more than a dozen people. Didn't I eat well and sleep well? "
Zhou Leiyun said with emotion, "Yes! Sometimes, it's not necessarily a good thing to have good living conditions! Mr. Xia's military experience will be of great benefit to your career development in the future! "
Xia Ruofei knew that Zhou Leiyun was thinking of his good-for-nothing nephew, Zhou Yuan, so he smiled and said, "Everyone wants to live a more exquisite life. I can't help it. Who asked me to not be born with a silver spoon in my mouth?"
Zhou Leiyun laughed and said, "Boss Xia, the conditions of this hotel are quite good! The local food here is very authentic, and the fitness center is also great! I believe Boss Xia will like it very much. By the way, there's an endless swimming pool on the roof. In our country's terms, it's an internet celebrity attraction! Some of our compatriots who don't lack money like to choose this hotel when they travel to Barcelona because of the endless swimming pool on the roof! "
"Really?" Xia Ruofei said, "I'll find time to experience it!"
"You must go and experience it well!" Zhou Leiyun said with a smile, "There are also many beautiful women in bikinis there!"
Zhou Leiyun then said, "By the way, Wu Lei is also temporarily arranged to stay in this hotel. But after he settles down, he should be renting or buying a house. After all, he will be staying here for several seasons!"
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Wu Lei should be going to the training base now, right?"
Wu Lei had successfully passed the physical examination of RCD Espanyol a few days ago and officially joined the club.
Perhaps because of the club's owner's background in Huaxia, or because of the huge Huaxia market behind Wu Lei, RCD Espanyol held a special press conference for Wu Lei's joining and also organized a grand joining ceremony.
Many Chinese people in Spain rushed to Barcelona from afar to attend Wu Lei's joining ceremony.
Wu Lei also showed off his footwork on the field as usual. His performance could be said to be average, at least he didn't make a fool of himself.
Zhou Leiyun nodded and said, "Yes, he usually rests in the club at noon. After a day of training, there will be a special car to take him back to the hotel!"
"This treatment is not bad!" Xia Ruofei grinned and said, "President Zhou, I want to meet Wu Lei when I have time. I want to talk to him!"
"No problem!" Zhou Leiyun promised.
The two chatted for a while, and the check-in procedures were completed. Zhou Leiyun personally sent Xia Ruofei upstairs.
This time, Zhou Leiyun was sincere enough, and the standard of reception was also very high.
Xia Ruofei stayed in a luxury suite, and the other employees were all in high-class rooms with large beds. Zhou Leiyun didn't know that Xia Ruofei's travel included executives from the Taoyuan Company. After learning about Dong Yun's identity, he immediately ordered Zhou Yuan to temporarily change Dong Yun's room into a suite, and it was on the same floor as Xia Ruofei's room.
Everyone went back to their rooms to rest, and Zhou Leiyun accompanied Xia Ruofei to the luxury suite.
As for Zhou Yuan, Zhou Leiyun was annoyed when he saw his cautious and submissive manner, so he simply sent him away.
The luxury suite had a spacious living room, a dining room, a small kitchen, and a large bathroom equipped with a high-end Jacuzzi. The view of the suite was also the best among all the rooms. Standing in front of the bedroom's bay window, one could have a panoramic view of the Gothic district, and the Barcelona Cathedral was close at hand.
Zhou Leiyun chatted with Xia Ruofei about the next arrangements, then got up and left. Xia Ruofei and the others had been on the plane for more than ten hours. Now that they had arrived at the hotel, they must rest first, and Zhou Leiyun didn't want to disturb them.
Just now, Zhou Leiyun had discussed with Xia Ruofei that Xia Ruofei and the others would rest in the hotel this afternoon to recover their strength. Tomorrow, Zhou Leiyun would arrange for someone to accompany Dong Yun and the others to tour Barcelona, and Xia Ruofei would go to the Espanyol Club with Zhou Leiyun. Although Xia Ruofei and Zhou Leiyun had signed the equity transfer agreement, some procedures still had to be done in Spain.
However, Xia Ruofei underestimated the enthusiasm of Dong Yun and the others. As soon as Zhou Leiyun left, Dong Yun asked in the group, "Chairman, what's our plan in the afternoon? Is it a group trip or a free activity? "
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but send a message in the group, "There's no plan in the afternoon! Everyone has been on the plane for such a long time, aren't they tired? I think it's better to rest in the hotel and go out to play tomorrow! "
Dong Yun directly sent a voice message, "I'm not tired at all!"
Shi Wen: Not tired + 1
Jiang Zhou: Not tired + 2
…
The employees replied in unison that they weren't tired, and Xia Ruofei didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Therefore, he called Zhou Leiyun and asked him to arrange for someone to come over and take Dong Yun and the others out to play.
Zhou Leiyun smiled and said, "No problem! Boss Xia, I'll ask someone to take Boss Dong and the others to walk around the old town, and try the local delicacies at night! "
"Sorry for the trouble!" Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly and said, "This group of employees was too tense a while ago, and now that they're out on vacation, it's as if they've been revived!"
"Hahaha! It's no trouble at all! "Zhou Leiyun said heartily," Boss Xia, don't you want to go out and walk around? "
"I'm not going!" Xia Ruofei said, "I can't rest well on the plane, I'd better catch up on sleep!"
"That's fine too! I'll look for you for dinner tonight, and I'll ask Wu Lei too. " Zhou Leiyun said heartily, "Let's eat at the hotel today, and mainly have a good chat!"
"I'll listen to your arrangements!" Xia Ruofei said.
Then, Xia Ruofei suddenly thought of something and hesitated for a moment before asking, "General Manager Zhou, that … is it convenient to arrange for everyone to visit Camp Nou tomorrow?"
The RCD Espanyol and the FC Barcelona were not on the same level, but they were still rivals in the same city. In front of the RCD Espanyol's boss, even Xia Ruofei himself felt that it seemed a bit excessive to ask him to send someone to take everyone to visit Barcelona's home stadium, Camp Nou.
Zhou Leiyun was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a wry smile, "They all want to visit Camp Nou?"
"No, but Boss Dong is a die-hard fan of Barça. She's definitely going to make a pilgrimage to Camp Nou when she comes to Barcelona this time!" Xia Ruofei said, "Several other employees also expressed similar feelings. On the contrary, they're not die-hard fans of Barça, but when their friends and family in China learned that they were going to Barcelona for a vacation, the fans would ask them to bring some Barça souvenirs, authentic jerseys, and so on. It would be better if they could get Messi's autograph …"
"I understand!" Zhou Leiyun said with a wry smile. "But if it's not a game day, we won't see those star players at Camp Nou …"
To be honest, Zhou Leiyun felt a little bitter. As the boss of the RCD Espanyol, how could he want his club to live in the shadow of Barça forever? But for now, this was the cruel reality.
Even with Wu Lei, these fans from China would obviously prefer Barça at the club level.
If they had to choose between visiting Barça's home ground and visiting the RCD Espanyol's home ground, everyone would probably choose the former without hesitation.
After the two chatted for a while, Zhou Leiyun hung up the phone. He still had to arrange for someone to come over and be a tour guide for Dong Yun and the others.
As for the visit to Camp Nou, that would be at least tomorrow, and the premise was that Camp Nou would be open for tours tomorrow.
Xia Ruofei went to the bathroom to take a bath. After changing into a bathrobe in the closet, he went to the bedroom and lay down on the bed. He soon fell asleep.
Then, Xia Ruofei suddenly thought of something. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "General Manager Zhou, that … Is it convenient to arrange for everyone to visit Camp Nou tomorrow?"
The RCD Espanyol and the FC Barcelona were not on the same level, but they were still rivals in the same city who hated each other. In front of the RCD Espanyol boss, even Xia Ruofei himself felt that it seemed a little excessive to ask him to send someone to take everyone to visit Barcelona's home ground, Camp Nou.
Zhou Leiyun was stunned for a moment. Then he asked with a wry smile, "They all want to visit Camp Nou?"
"That's not true. Boss Dong is a die-hard fan of Barça. She must be going to Camp Nou when she comes to Barcelona this time!" Xia Ruofei said. "Several other employees also expressed similar feelings. On the contrary, they are not die-hard fans of Barça. It's just that when their friends and family in China learned that they were going to Barcelona for a vacation, the fans would ask them to bring some Barça souvenirs, authentic jerseys, and so on. It would be better if they could get Messi's autograph …"
"I understand!" Zhou Leiyun said with a wry smile. "But if it's not a game day, you won't see those star players at Camp Nou …"

Xia Ruofei went to the bathroom to take a bath. After changing into a bathrobe in the closet, he went to the bedroom and lay down on the bed. He soon fell asleep.
