Xia Donghai counted it and found that there are currently more than 150 employees in the company, including more than a dozen newly signed artists, and more than 60 people are distributed in commercial performances in various places under Feng Xiaonan's leadership.

"Are there too many people in one hundred and fifty?" Xia Donghai hesitated.

Although it is a big eater, so many people have to fight out in a huge way, and there are nearly twenty tables on the dining table alone. It is indeed a large group of diners. I am afraid that the restaurant does not have this preparation and the ingredients purchased are not enough.

"What does that matter?" Fan Wubing smiled, "It's just to spend more money. Finding a good restaurant is the real thing."

Xia Donghai nodded, then summoned several supervisors from the company to ask them any good suggestions.

I heard that the boss of the company was going to take his employees out for consumption, and several supervisors were very cautious. After all, I didn’t know what the boss’s original intention was to treat him. If he chose a cheap hotel, he would be said to be not of level. However, if it was too expensive, he was afraid that the boss would be unhappy, so he hesitated.

Xia Donghai said, "Why is the boss a super rich man? Let's put it this way, where are the hotels you most want to go to in Shanghai? Where is the most tasteful place? Where is the place with the highest consumption? Where is the place with the highest consumption? Let's go!"

Now everyone understood and opened their minds to think about it. Soon, everyone put forward a lot of names of high-end hotels, such as Peace Hotel, International Hotel, Jinjiang Hotel, etc., and they made a lot of suggestions, but they didn't agree.

"Please choose an old brand with good reputation!" Xia Donghai suggested.

"If you want to say that the oldest and most qualified person with the best reputation is of course the international hotel. Before the Japanese entered the Northeast, the international hotel had already started business in Shanghai and had been persisting until now." A supervisor replied.

"How is the food?" Fan Wubing asked.

"I haven't eaten it." Several people replied in shame.

"Yeah." Fan Wubing nodded, thinking that after all, it is a big hotel in Shanghai with a long history. Everyone's salary is probably not enough for food. Moreover, ordinary people are not confident when they go to international hotels to spend money, right? So he said, "Since you have not been there and I have not been there either, then let me eat it today. Please inform the employees of various departments and prepare to go to international hotels for a happy time!"

The company is still a bit far away from the International Hotel, so it started to take taxis in batches. Seeing this, Fan Wubing said to Xia Donghai, "The company now has about 200 people. It is impossible for everyone to go out to take taxis. First, it is inconvenient, and second, the time cannot be guaranteed. It seems that we have to purchase a batch of official vehicles first."

"I have considered this, but it costs a lot of money." Xia Donghai replied.

Nowadays, domestic cars are expensive. Even if you buy a domestic Santana, it will cost a lot of money, not to mention imported cars with a lot of tariffs. If the company wants to solve the travel problem, even if it is ten people per car, it will need to buy twenty cars, which will cost several million yuan.

Unexpectedly, Fan Wubing said, "The image of the company is also very important. How can a first-class company allow employees to squeeze buses or take taxis while working? If this is the case, it is better for Audi to buy thirty vehicles, which should be discounted."

Thirty Audis?! Several supervisors in the house were shocked!

He is worthy of being a big boss, and his demeanor is different. Thirty Audis, with nearly 20 million yuan in expenditure, was settled in one sentence, and he didn't see Xia Donghai having any doubts. He is really a strong and rich boss! He has a future with such a boss!

Everyone immediately made up their minds that if possible, they would die of old age at the New Silk Road Entertainment Company! The boss is so rich! And he is willing to spend money on employees! Where can such a boss be found?

So the group rushed to the International Hotel in a mighty manner, blocking more than 40 taxis along the way, which made the pedestrians on the road feel a little depressed, so the taxi drivers thought something important had happened here, and drove over to watch.

Fan Wubing's car was just right for four people. After he got into the driver's seat, he asked Xia Donghai, "You should be able to drive, right?"

"I lack exercise cells." Xia Donghai immediately expressed his attitude.

Of course, the two women couldn't drive, so Fan Wubing had to continue to act as a driver. However, he was not familiar with the road conditions in Shanghai, so he drove slowly. He finally got to the international hotel, but he saw that the employees had already entered, leaving a few people waiting for them at the door.

"Each of you will have to learn to drive in the future!" After getting off the car, Fan Wubing said to everyone.

The International Hotel was built in 1934. It has a height of 24 floors, 22 floors above ground and two floors underground. It not only has an automatic elevator, but also has an international long-distance telephone and an underground vault. In Asia in the 1930s and 1940s, even Tokyo, Japan, did not have such a high modern building, so the International Hotel became the first skyscraper in the Far East.

At that time, the land prices in Shanghai were already very high. For example, the Bund on Nanjing Road was the place with the highest land prices. In the early 1930s, the land prices had reached 300,000 taels of silver per mu. When Shanghai opened its port, the British, American, and Western merchants went to Shanghai to rent land from local farmers. At that time, the land prices per mu were only 1,500 cents. In this century, the land prices increased by 200,000 times.

The International Hotel was built by the Sihang Savings Association. The designer was Wu Dake, a famous Hungarian architect. This Sihang Savings Association was a group formed by four private capital banks in China at that time. It wanted to express its strength by building high-rise buildings, but this strength was actually very limited, so it was impossible to buy land in the Bund because the land price on the Bund was too high.

Later, they bought such a relatively cheap place on the edge of the racecourse. The international hotel faced north and south, and could see the opposite racecourse. At that time, it was said that they forgot the noise of cars and horses, and they suspected that they had become immortal. The tallest building in the Far East became famous for it.

When everyone walked into the hall, the waiter in charge of the reception talked about the glorious history of the International Hotel. For example, the engagement ceremony of General Chennard, the former captain of the Flying Tigers, and Ms. Chen Xiangmei, was held here, and the opening ceremony of the China-US international long-distance telephone number was also held here. It is said that in the suite on the 14th floor, the sisters Soong Mei-ling once spoke to President Roosevelt's wife on the phone.

The celebrities in Shanghai back then were also regular visitors here, such as Mei Lanfang, Ruan Lingyu, and Butterfly, who had participated in various banquets here.

"The title of the tallest building in Shanghai of the International Hotel has been maintained for half a century." The waiter said proudly.

Fan Wubing was a little dissatisfied when he heard this. The honor of an international hotel has been maintained for half a century, which is equivalent to the stagnation of domestic construction for half a century! The gap of fifty years, coupled with the previous historical debts, is a heavy historical burden. How many years of struggle does the Chinese need to pay for it to be able to recover?

But, probably not many tourists who come here will think so like Fan Wubing?

The hotel has five different styles of restaurants serving Chinese and Western dishes, namely International Gate, Fengze Tower, Shunfeng Hall, Peacock Hall, Yunlou, Fan Wubing thought about it and let the employees choose by themselves. Whoever wants to eat the type of food would go to the corresponding restaurant.

As a result, the most people eat Western food. Fan Wubing originally wanted to eat Chinese food, but both girls said they wanted to try the Western food here. In fact, they just wanted to see what the real Western food looked like, so Fan Wubing also ate Western food with them.

However, before eating, Fan Wubing said, "Western food made by chefs is selectively targeted at the Western food improved by the Chinese. You can still eat it. You should stay away from the Western food in the small restaurant."

A passerby next to him immediately agreed when he heard Fan Wubing's words, "This little brother's words are great! When you eat Western food, you can only come to such a serious place. The Western food made in other small restaurants is very terrible!"

Fan Wubing took a look and found that the restaurant here was just six or seven tables. The others were scattered in the other four restaurants. Soon, waiters came over to ask everyone to order food.

Fan Wubing opened the menu and suddenly asked, "Is there a two-pound lobster?"

"No." The waiter was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and replied.

"This can be there." Fan Wubing said with a smile.

"Nothing is true." The waiter replied helplessly.

Although lobsters can grow more than ten kilograms, they usually see that only about one kilogram. Fan Wubing and others weigh two kilograms, which is really a bit difficult. You don’t know that there is a little Shenyang in the northeast at this time!
