Chapter 17 [Unexpected Negotiations](1/2)

.I waited until check out, and I realized I was a little confused.

I have basically nothing left for my memory of Beijing except for the Great Wall that is long. In addition, I know a series of place names that are extremely familiar but do not know the direction, such as Gongzhu Tomb, Wudaokou, Houhai, Sanlitun, Wangfujing, Xidan, etc., but I don’t know anything about the corresponding places.

It seems that this great capital has only one benefit for someone like me. If you want to write something, you will definitely be fine. You can talk about everything. But when your feet really step on this land, you will become at a loss.

"Ahem, what, where do you think we should live?" I looked at Pei Yingying as if she was asking for help, a little embarrassed.

Pei Yingying burst out laughing, "You got on the plane and came over. Why don't you even know where you go?"

I felt a little embarrassed and said with my eyebrows down, "That...uh...I'm very familiar with the place name, but the direction is really confused. The last time I came to Beijing, it seemed that it was at least ten years ago."

Pei Yingying waved her hand very heroically, "Follow me..."

But her image makes me feel that I am the painter who is waiting for the price, and Pei Yingying is going to be a decoration foreman. She waved her hand and said, "Follow me..." However, I really have no intention of caring now. I followed Pei Yingying honestly and got into a taxi waiting outside the airport gate.

Pei Yingying said to the driver as if she had arrived at her home, "Wangfujing, Dawan Hotel, is the Ganyu Hutong on North Street..."

"Okay, don't worry, our door-to-door Qing'er can go there with your eyes closed..." The driver did not hesitate, and when he let go of the handbrake, the car rushed forward directly.

When I heard this reply like crosstalk, I was happy first, and then said, "Master, please be more at ease. Just open your eyes and bring us the wheels in front of you later."

The driver was furious, "Hey, underestimate people! I'm not bragging to you. Just like this Sijiu City, there is no place I'm not familiar with. It's a bit exaggerated to close my eyes, but with my skills, even if there is a wheel in front of me, I can fly over for you..."

Pei Yingying and I looked at each other and smiled. We had heard that Beijing taxi drivers could talk, so we have seen it now.

As we spoke, we exaggerated ourselves, and we blew on the other end again. We let him say it and stopped making any more noise.

"Isn't the first time you're here in our Beijing? You're familiar with it. He opened his mouth and was Ganyu Hutong. If you want to say that you're coming to Beijing for the first time, no one believes it." We stopped talking, but the driver was still excited.

I silently didn't plan to answer. I heard that when I got into a taxi in Beijing, if I didn't plan to get a calluse, I had to be honest. No matter what the driver said, it was all over, so don't make a fuss. Otherwise, he could talk about national affairs from the hotel location, and then explain Bush Saddam's. After that, I can't tell you about the spaceship launching. I know all about the technical issues. If you don't understand it, you would think that Shenzhou V was built.

But Pei Yingying obviously lacked experience and replied, "I don't know anything else, I know that there. I lived there last time I came to Beijing, and it was actually the second time I came back."

"Look at what I said. I just said it wasn't the first time, right? The second time is not as good as the first time. The first time was a dark look. When I got on the bus, I asked first, "Master, how much does it cost to go to Wangfujing? If you don't care about the money, I just asked, "Master, what good hotels are there in Wangfujing? Are Sanlitun or Houhai far away from there? It's like there are only two places left in our Beijing city." Listening to the driver's Beijing film, let alone, it's really like listening to crosstalk, so I let Pei Yingying talk to him.

"We are here for business and don't have time to go to those places."

"I tell you, you can't stay busy all night. Those two places are poor and those who are poor in pulling cars have no time to pass, but you really have to go and see where those big stars, big singers, etc. are going to go. I'm right, which star do you like? Let me tell you, don't look at my car, you really have to pull those stars a lot. Especially two years ago, before my buddy changed this Fukang, I drove Xiali. You know, that little red broken car. At that time, I was squatting at the door of CCTV, and all the wrists came out. I told you, Ni Ping, I took my car a lot. At that time, I also packed a day in Huang Jianxiang!"

Pei Yingying smiled and asked, "Celebrities take your car, do you ask them for money?"

"He, look at what you said, how can you do without money? Not only do you have to ask for money, but you also have to ask for more. Usually, I will get all those celebrities who get on the bus or return at night, and I will get all those who can get on the bus. I have to kill three more trees when I go to the ground."

"Three trees?" Pei Yingying didn't understand.

I smiled and didn't bother to explain, anyway, the driver said it.

"Oh, you're the one below, one means ten yuan."

"Then do you ask for more money to ask for? Is he willing to give it?"

The driver laughed, his hands left the steering wheel, and his feet were dancing, otherwise the car would have to turn over. "Those old hats, they usually drive their own cars, but how can they know what the price of a taxi? They usually have a purpose to take a taxi. Don't say that, by the way, you two are not tabloid reporters, are you? Those celebrities, if they take a taxi out and don't drive their own cars, they will probably meet a little lover or something, for fear that they will be followed by a reporter when they drive out."

This gossip was exposed very much. I closed my eyes and listened to Pei Yingying answering him one-on-one.

It was true. As he pulled the topic, the driver briefly talked about the topic from the bar at the beginning to the secret history of celebrities. Then, for some reason, it turned into a house in Beijing, and then international events. He heard that Fujian was about to start a fight with Taiwan. When he knew that we were coming from Nanjing, he talked about the Japanese and scolded him. When he waited for the red light, he scolded the owner of a Nissan next to him. Then, he didn't know why he talked about history, and said that his ancestors were probably descendants of Du Mu. In short, it was a foggy person. Later, he talked about it alone. Pei Yingying finally closed her mouth with a sense of knowledge.

I waited until the car drove downstairs of Dawan Hotel. The driver was still unsatisfied, but he did not forget to charge us for the car money.

I opened two rooms and went back to my room to rest.

I took a shower and when I came out, I saw that it was past five o'clock, I called Luo Zhong.

"Hello, Manager Luo, I'm Shi Lei. I've arrived in Beijing now. You can see when it's convenient for you. Let's find a place to have dinner together."

Luo Zhong did not vaguely and directly replied, "Okay, no problem, where is Mr. Shi?"

"I'm near Wangfujing, Dongdan North Street."

Luo Zhong thought for a moment, "Then let's make it convenient for you. Find a place and call me. I'll be able to arrive at around 6:30."

I thought it would be fine, so I agreed, agreed to the time, asked him how many people came from him, and hung up the phone.

After dressing, I walked to the door of Pei Yingying’s room opposite and knocked on her door.

Soon, Pei Yingying bit a hairpin in her mouth and opened the door for me. After taking off the hairpin from her mouth, she said, "Wait for me for two minutes and just put my hair on it."

I nodded, and walked inside without saying a word.

Looking at Pei Yingying with her hair coiled, she suddenly remembered a song. It was the only song in the album of a campus singer named Shen Qing, "Premlin Dressing in the Mirror". When talking about Shen Qing, many people may not know, but when talking about the song "Youth" in the first campus folk song collection, many people probably know it. Pei Yingying was wearing a very professional suit, which was different from the one just now.

"What's going on with your outfit?"

Pei Yingying looked back at me and smiled, "Didn't you expect you to suddenly pull me to Beijing? I'm wearing it so casually today, jeans are not suitable for negotiations, so I just went to the business center downstairs to buy a casual set of clothes."

I looked at myself, it was quite decent, not serious formal wear. But a set of business services can basically meet people.

"You are not stupid, but it doesn't matter. I guess all of those people are wearing jeans and shirts." I also guess that few people who are usually concerned about wearing very serious clothes.

"It doesn't matter what they wear, but I have requirements for myself. No matter what, I meet customers, and these people are likely to be colleagues in the future, so I can't be too casual."

I think what Pei Yingying said actually makes sense. This is probably the thinking of a mature administrator in thinking about things. So I stopped commenting and continued to look at her head.

Soon, Pei Yingying tied her hair up, she stood up, and Shi Shiran smiled at me, "Okay, Mr. Shi, we can leave now."

I smiled and shook my head, "Why did you learn to call me Mr. Shi?"

"Haha, get into the role early so as not to blurt out Shi Lei when negotiating with those people, and it seems that the superiors and subordinates are inseparable, which makes the other party think that our company is too casual and has no reasonable structure."

I nodded. These were indeed some details that needed attention. No matter what, the other party was an outsider after all. While we were examining them, they were also examining us.

"I know what hotels are nearby?" I asked Pei Yingying and I when we stepped into the elevator.

Pei Yingying smiled, "There are all hotels nearby..."

"Don't laugh at the leader..." I also hoped that we could all be relaxed, so I made a joke.

Pei Yingying smiled again, "Quanjude must be out of place. If you go to order again now, it will definitely be crowded. Go to the Tan Family Food in the government. I ate it there when I came to Beijing last time. It was a very generous place and it was decent."

I don't care about these things, as long as I don't seem petty. So I nodded and walked with Pei Yingying.

Anyway, it's not far away, just a few steps away, and I'll just sway.

After asking for a private room, I sat down, I took out my cell phone and called Luo Zhong, "Manager Luo, I am Shi Lei. The hotel has been booked. There is a goldfish alley on Wangfujing Street, called Guanfu Tanjiacai."

"Ah? OK, haha, Mr. Shi has spent money. We are almost over. We will be here in a while. I'm sorry to ask you to wait for us." Luo Zhong seemed very polite over there. This made me feel that the chance of winning this negotiation was much greater.

"When you should, I will order the dishes first. Don't worry, you can take your time, it doesn't matter." Since the other party is polite, I naturally have to say a few words.

There was no more politeness on the other end, but just said it normally, "Okay. See you later." Then hung up the phone.

When I was about to pass the menu, I glanced a little and realized that no wonder Luo Zhong said I had spent money. The official dishes were indeed official dishes, and the price was indeed very official, but I didn’t know what the taste was. But I didn’t have to take this little money to heart. I put the menu together and put it on the table. Then I looked at Pei Yingying and signaled her to order the dishes.

Pei Yingying didn't talk much, so she called the waiter and whispered to her to exchange opinions. She quickly ordered the dishes.

"What wine do you drink?" Pei Yingying closed the menu and asked me.

I shook my head, "Don't worry about this, wait for them to arrive later and let them decide. Oh, by the way, how many dishes did you order? Where are the three of them!"

"Don't worry, I ordered four cold dishes and six hot dishes. It should be enough to eat."

I waved my hand. "It's not a good thing to eat, it must look good. The six dishes seem to be a little less. You can add two more."

"It's not a shortage. There are two small cups, a cup of shark fin and a cup of bird's nest porridge. Don't worry, I have all counted these."

After hearing Pei Yingying say this, I won’t say anything anymore. I lit a cigarette and simulated the possible dialogues and situations that may occur in my heart again——”

Almost just now, there was a knock on the door outside the door. The waiter pushed the door and then let three people in.

This is the first time I have seen Luo Zhong. He looks less than thirty years old. As expected, he is wearing jeans and shirts. As soon as I came in, he asked me, "Is it Mr. Shi?"

I stood up with a smile, "Hello, Manager Luo, please sit down!" Then I looked at Pei Yingying, and Pei Yingying waved to the waiter, "Serve the food!"

After hearing this, the waiter did not go out directly. "Everyone please drink, let's take a moment."

I watched Luo Zhong and the other three sit down, and then asked them, "What wine do you drink, Manager Luo? Are you white or beer?"

Luo Zhong looked at me, then looked at his two companions, and then smiled and said to me, "Let's do whatever you want, see what Mr. Shi drinks."

"Don't be polite to me, I'm the real casual. You usually drink whatever you want.

Luo Zhong hesitated a little, but still said, "Then it's white, I'm used to it."

I nodded, "Two bottles of Wuliangye..." Then I looked at Luo Zhong and others, "Wuliangye is OK? If you are not used to changing to something else."

"That's all, that's great!" Luo Zhong was fine, but his two companions looked a little flattered.

After the waiter wrote the wine list, he went out and carefully closed the door for us.

"With the wine and food not yet come up, let's talk about the matter first. Let's talk about it first. No matter what the talk is, it won't affect the meal later. But if you are not used to this, we will talk about some off-topics first and then talk about the main things after eating." I mainly don't know how much these people drink. Two bottles of Wuliangye and five people say too much, but it won't affect their thinking. If you talk about it at that time, you will have unnecessary trouble.

Luo Zhong smiled and took off his coat and put it on the back of the chair behind him. "Let's talk about it now. I'll save some alcohol in my brain. It's not good if I don't agree on what I should have."

I nodded, took out a box of Zhonghua that I bought at the entrance of the hotel and threw it in front of them, "Then please tell me what kind of treatment do you want. You have a general understanding of my situation. It's just an online game, but the developers are young people who have just graduated and have no practical development experience. Now I don't know if it's because of technical reasons or just experience. In short, the progress has stopped. I won't talk about it in detail..."

Luo Zhong's answer surprised me. I originally thought that no matter what, now it was obvious that I had something to ask them for, so I had to take some action. But I didn't expect that Luo Zhong was unexpectedly straightforward.

"It can be seen that Shi is a real person, otherwise he would not tell us your true situation. Since you are real, we don't want to play with those things that are priced at a price. So, I'll give Mr. Shi a briefing.

I am the manager, and Shi always knows that these two are the deputy managers of our department..." After hearing this, I nodded slightly at the two, "To be honest, small teams like us do whatever they work, and they are all digging food. Perhaps Mr. Shi also knows that Lao Li, who introduced us to you, is also my personal friend. I asked him, and he said he has a good relationship with you and he has no intention of making money from this order. I will figure it out. Let's do this, my current annual salary is 240,000, both of them are 180,000, and there are six other programmers.

, the annual salary is 100,000. We were not happy with this company, so we wanted to find Lao Li to register for their headhunting company. Since Mr. Shi is so honest, I won’t say much. To be honest, we are all from Beijing. We have to make some decisions to leave Beijing and go to Nanjing, but I don’t want to make the price too high. We have discussed before that our total annual salary is 1.2 million yuan, and the dividend is 2% of the project’s profit. If Mr. Shi is willing to give us 1.5 million yuan, the dividend is also 2%. Let’s go with you."

To be honest, his words were beyond my expectations.
