After dinner, Li He wanted to go to the Bund, and Chen Dadi and the others wanted to accompany him.
Chen Dadi said, "You're not familiar with this place. We'll accompany you."
"I see that there are quite a lot of guests here. All he had to do was run the hotel well. Also, the training of the waiters needs to be strengthened. There must be a standard procedure. Many of them are details. For example, when the waiters poured tea for me, the teacup was almost full. Shouldn't the tea be eighty percent full? And then pass it to the right side of the guest? " Seeing that he was about to speak, Li He interrupted and continued, "And, when the last dish is served, should we take the initiative to tell the guest that all the dishes have been served? The bone plate is almost full. Should we remove it? Also, I see that there are many foreigners here. Should our waiters also have some simple training in foreign languages? No matter what level of English is required, it's to create a so-called sense of professionalism. "
Li He had never worked in the service industry, but he had been to many high-end places. Naturally, there would be a comparison, and a comparison could show the difference, especially the subtle difference.
Chen Dadi lowered his head and said, "At present, there are five such hotels in Hua Dong, and I really can't manage them all. I'll slowly improve. "
Li He smiled and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "I'm not picking on you. I just want you to pay attention. It's because you manage too many hotels that you need to be standardized. Everything must be done according to the rules, so that the management can be relaxed. No way. Isn't Huating Hotel a five-star hotel? Isn't the Peace Hotel good? It's okay to visit more, have a few meals there, and even stay a few nights there. You have to admit that there's a gap between you and others, and you have to learn seriously. Of course, if you have the ability to poach people, then you're good. That'll be even better. "
Pinsong's real estate was fine. At present, he mainly bought houses and hoarded land, and there was no big work to be done. But Chen Dadi was different. After the 1980s, foreign hotels, hotels, and restaurants in Pujiang had sprung up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. Not to mention those far away, just nearby, there was the 30,000 square meter Jin Jiang Hotel, the 24-story International Hotel, the Broadway Building, the Peace Hotel, and the newly built 27-story Paramount Hotel.
The burden on Chen Dadi's shoulders was not easy at all. If the service industry did not provide good service, it would be eliminated.
Chen Dadi said, "It's not that easy to recruit people. I've tried."
Li He said, "There's only a hoe that doesn't work hard. There's no corner that can't be dug out. If they aren't willing, it means that your offer isn't attractive enough. As long as you're talented, you don't have to be afraid to pay. "
His words made the people around him laugh. Chen Dadi also smiled and said, "Don't worry. I understand what you mean."
Li He asked Chen Dadi to stay behind, but Pinsong insisted on accompanying him. He said, "There are a lot of idiots out there. I'll go with you."
"You can fight better than me?" Li He was more familiar with the area around Pu River than the rest. He continued, "You guys are new here too. Hurry up and do what you're doing. It's not easy to survive here. "
Pinsong said, "I'm just worried."
"Sort out the information in your hands. I'll look at it tomorrow. " Li He just wanted to walk around quietly by himself. He couldn't explain why he wanted to be alone.
Pinsong drooped his head and didn't say anything.
Li He turned and left.
He started walking east from Yongye Building. When he passed by a brick and wood building, he took a good look at it.
"This place used to be called Xiafei Road. This house is the former site of the French Concession's Public Directorate."
Li He turned his head. Seeing that it was Wu Shuping, he smiled and asked, "Why are you here?"
Wu Shuping smiled and said, "Mr. Yu isn't here, and I don't have anything to do. I'll just accompany you."
"You seem to know more about this place than I do?" Since she had followed him, Li He naturally couldn't chase her away.
"We're going to develop in Pu River. Naturally, I've read a bit about this area's history." Wu Shuping continued to smile and said, "But this place might be under your name soon."
"Under my name?" Li He didn't understand what she meant.
"It's said that this place is going to be renovated. Mr. Pinsong seems to be determined to get this place."
Li He shook his head and said, "He can't. Let Old Yu do it. "
Those who could participate in the development of the land here were basically foreign investors, especially Hong Kong companies.
"Why?" Wu Shuping was puzzled.
Li He smiled and said, "Old Yu's face is big enough."
Wu Shuping tilted her head and smiled as she said, "It's true that Mr. Yu's stomach is big, but his face is quite small."
Li He laughed, feeling that there was no need to explain further.
"Let's go. We'll reach the Bund if we head east."
Wu Shuping pointed to a black car following behind them and said, "Mr. Li, this place is a few miles away from the Bund. It'll take about an hour to walk there. Why don't you get in the car? It's quite cold outside."
"There's no need. It's warm to walk. " Li He waved his hand. As he walked, he looked around. Seeing a night market nearby, he smiled and asked, "Do you want to eat something?"
Wu Shuping said worriedly, "Mr. Li, the hygiene outside isn't very good. If you want to eat, I know a pretty good restaurant nearby."
Li He shook his head and didn't say anything else. The two of them obviously didn't have anything in common.
He was thinking that if He Fang were here, she would probably be the first to happily run up without him saying anything.
Seeing that he wasn't willing to get in the car, Wu Shuping could only follow behind him helplessly. She was probably wearing high heels, so she was a little stumbling when she walked.
Li He smiled and said, "Get in the car. You don't have to accompany me. "
Wu Shuping said awkwardly, "There's no need."
However, she couldn't take it anymore after walking halfway. She asked the driver to stop the car and took out a pair of sports shoes to change into.
By the time she changed into her shoes, the sloppy figure in front of her had already walked past a few intersections. She helplessly got into the car and asked the driver to catch up with Li He.
The lights on the road weren't bright, but the wind was getting stronger. Li He felt hot walking instead. He unzipped his down jacket and unbuttoned it.
He smoked along the way, stopping and walking. Perhaps he was reminiscing, or perhaps he was curious. He didn't even know what he was looking at.
When they reached the Bund, the street lights on both sides were obviously different. There were street lights on the roadside and lights on the tall buildings. It felt a little brightly lit. This was probably the busiest place, with crowds of people everywhere.
The Bund didn't have guardrails yet. Both sides were docked with ships, and there was only a narrow gangplank between the ships and the ground.
From the docks, ships, roads, monuments, and tall buildings, one could vaguely see the grandeur of the Far East's biggest city in the past.
Wu Shuping said, "Mr. Yu is right. If it weren't for the delays in China for so many years, Hong Kong wouldn't be here at all."
Li He said, "Hong Kong has its good points, and this place has its good points. However, Hong Kong can't give China the big rivers and seas that they want. "
The bright lighthouse on the other side caught his attention. Under the lighthouse, he could vaguely see large trucks coming and going.
Wu Shuping said, "That's our current project site. We're currently working on three roads and one leveling. Why don't we find a boat to go over and take a look? "
Li He sighed, lit another cigarette, and said, "There's no need."
When he realized that he couldn't go back, only he could understand the pain that he felt. He really couldn't go back. There were also his ties here, and there were also people that needed his protection.
Wu Shuping suddenly realized that his hand holding the cigarette was trembling. She couldn't understand this man. He didn't show his emotions, and he was unpredictable. He even looked a little silly. However, after interacting with him, she knew how good he was.
This belonged to Avacaniya.
The two continued walking along the river embankment. At a corner, there was a long queue in front of a shop. The signboard couldn't be seen clearly in the dark. Li He asked, "What's that place? Why is the business so good? "
Wu Shuping smiled and said, "That's a new KFC opened by an American company here."
"Oh." Li He went closer to take a look at the signboards. There were two of them. The red signboard on the top read: American KFC Hometown Chicken. Below it was an engraved sign: Dongfeng Restaurant.
