There are many senior members of Misia Store, but there is only one person who can make a one-time deposit of 10 million, and that is Zhou Chen.
Even when Daisy was studying at the Hong Kong Island Main Store, she had never heard of anyone spending 10 million in one go. At most, she only spent that much at that time.
She had already inquired with other salesmen in the store and found out that this Zhou Chen lived in the nearby Junyue Mansion, and she heard that he was from a big family in Magic City and was a very handsome and powerful man.
Generous rich people like this are the customers that all luxury stores crave, and the performance of luxury stores depends on these customers to maintain their performance.
What puzzled her was that this big customer only bought clothes a few times, and then nothing happened. Two months had passed since the last purchase.
She asked the clerk and found out that the customer Zhou Chen belonged to Wang Manni, but she didn't know what happened and hadn't appeared for a long time.
She went to Wang Manni to ask about the situation, but Wang Manni didn't give her face at all and just said a few words and got over it. This made her so dissatisfied that she even put on Wang Manni's shoes several times.
If such a customer was ignored, it would definitely be a huge loss to their store, so she planned to take action herself.
So she found Zhou Chen's phone number through her member information and dialed it.
Zhou Chen went to Huaxing Group this morning, but did not go to the rehabilitation center. The school has not officially started yet, and it is still in the process of enrolling students and finding teachers. Gu Jia will lead the employees who have already taken up the job, which is enough to deal with it.
In the afternoon, he went to the pharmaceutical company again. Because Zhou Chen's prescription was there, the progress was relatively fast. It is expected that the finished medicine will be made into finished medicine soon, and then he can start making profits.
After going to the pharmaceutical factory, Zhou Chen returned to Junyue Mansion. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
As soon as Zhou Chen returned home, he suddenly received a strange phone call. After answering the call, he realized that it was the deputy manager of the Misia store.
However, the current deputy store manager is no longer the former deputy store manager, but the newly appointed deputy store manager. Zhou Chen also instantly guessed the identity of this person. He should be the deputy store manager who had trouble with Wang Manni.
.
These sales are all similar. They say that new products have arrived in the store, so he can go and take a look when he has time. They can also make private orders. If you need anything, you can call directly or go to the store.
Zhou Chen didn't even finish listening, so he just said a few words casually and hung up the phone.
He had already completed the mission regarding Wang Manni, and his relationship with Wang Manni ended after that night, so he was no longer interested in Misia's store.
As for the nearly 10 million in money, he didn't take it seriously. When he remembered later and needed clothes, he would ask them to deliver them to his door.
Zhou Chen's response made Daisy very depressed, but she didn't dare to continue fighting. If she angered the other party and canceled her membership, it would be really tragic.
For Zhou Chen, this was just a small incident and he was quickly forgotten because he had more important things to do recently.
In a while, it will be his grandfather's birthday, which will be celebrated in his hometown in Jiangsu Province. The old man has already spoken and is determined not to do anything big. Except for those people from his hometown, only close relatives and descendants will be allowed to go there. At most, there will only be five or six people.
table.
As the eldest elder of the Zhou family, although Mr. Zhou is no longer in charge and all the power has been handed over to Zhou Chen, he is the anchor of the Zhou family. The business of the Zhou family can sell well in many places across the country because of him.
face and connections.
Mr. Zhou doesn't like cliché gifts like gold and silver. He has been dealing with medicinal materials all his life. Secondly, he likes to collect some old things, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc.
Zhou Chen prepares gifts every year, and this time is no exception. However, this time, the gift he chose is quite special. I believe the old man will be very happy when he sees it.
Zhou Chen has also discovered Gu Jia's problem recently. Every time Gu Jia sees him, her eyes are a little dodgey. Although he is not repulsive, he is not as natural and friendly as before.
This is not a bad thing for Zhou Chen. It shows that Gu Jia has understood some of his ideas, but has not stayed away from him, which shows that he still has a chance.
Now he is just waiting for the conflict between her and Xu Huanshan to break out soon, and then his chance will come.
"How do I look in this outfit?"
Zhao Jingyu, wearing an evening dress, asked Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen looked at the tall Zhao Jingyu, who looked even more beautiful in this evening dress, and nodded.
"She is very beautiful, very beautiful. She will definitely outshine all other beauties when the time comes."
Tonight, Zhou Chen is going to attend a banquet. It is a banquet organized by the Zheng family, an old family in Shanghai. It is held for the sake of the family's son being admitted to Harvard.
Being admitted to Harvard is a great thing, but the theme of this kind of upper-class dinner is not celebration, but a kind of communication, bringing together elites from all walks of life, and maybe you can get business done at the banquet.
This is a method often used by famous families, and this is how connections are accumulated.
Zhou Chen was familiar with the host of this banquet, so the other party sent him an invitation letter.
Normally, a female companion would be brought to such a banquet, so Zhou Chen thought of Zhao Jingyu and told her his thoughts.
Zhao Jingyu was naturally overjoyed. Zhou Chen was willing to take her out, which showed that she was not shameful. Even if it was just as a female companion, it was a comfort to her.
So since the morning, she has been dressing up. No matter what, as Zhou Chen's female companion, he cannot embarrass Zhou Chen.
As for this evening dress, Zhou Chen spent money to buy it for her. After putting it on, it was indeed very gorgeous.
"You will coax me. There are too many beauties in the Magic City, and I can't even be ranked." Zhao Jingyu's eyes narrowed as she smiled.
In the evening, Zhou Chen took Zhao Jingyu to a large club in the city center, which was a place specially designed to hold dinner parties.
"The presence of Director Jay Chou is really a blessing."
The host of the banquet was named Zheng. His family was engaged in many industries and had astonishing assets. He was one of the top celebrities in the Magic City.
But even so, Zheng Liyuan was very happy to welcome Zhou Chen in person.
"The invitation letter sent by Mr. Zheng, how dare I not come?"
Zhou Chen had long been accustomed to such banquets and greeted Zheng Liyuan with a smile.
The two of them have met more than once because they belong to the same chamber of commerce.
The nature of chambers of commerce in modern society is different from that of ancient chambers of commerce, but they are still a group of businessmen who may not have great power, but their influence is definitely extraordinary.
So speaking of it, the two of them are still in an alliance, a little closer than others.
"Dr. Jay, this is Quanzi, Zheng Cuibo, Cuibo, this is Dong Zhou. Dong Zhou is a legend in the business world. He has taken control of the Zhou family at a young age. You must learn from Director Zhou and communicate more."
Zhou Chen looked at Zheng Cuibo who looked proud next to him, and said with a slight smile: "I am not a legend. I have only taken the glory of my ancestors. Your son is the real young and promising one. Mr. Zheng can be said to have a successor."
Zheng Liyuan laughed loudly. He was the only son, so he was naturally very happy to hear Zhou Chen praise his son.
"Dr. Jay, please."
Zhou Chen held Zhao Jingyu's arm and followed Zheng Liyuan and his son into the hall.
"Director Zhou, Mr. Wang, and Mr. Cheng are over there. We were talking about you just now. Let's go over and say hello first."
"good."
The people Zheng Liyuan mentioned were all members of the same chamber of commerce as them, and their relationship with each other was much closer than that of other people present.
Zhou Chen patted Zhao Jingyu's hand and said softly: "You hang around here first, and I'll go over and have a chat."
Zhao Jingyu knew at a glance that she had experienced similar scenes and behaved very appropriately.
"You go ahead, I'll be fine by myself."
Zhou Chen walked over with Zheng Liyuan. There were only four people in that corner. When he saw Zhou Chen and Zheng Liyuan coming over, the eyes of the oldest man among them lit up.
"Xiaochen, your boy is finally here. He's not very young, and he's pretty good at putting on a show."
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, what you said is really unfair to me. How can I be as good as you?"
"Haha, Zhou Chen, you actually brought a female companion here. This is really rare."
The speaker was a man of about forty years old, his surname was Hu, and he was very familiar with Zhou Chen, because their family was in the transportation business, and Huaxing Group's medicinal materials transportation was contracted to their company, so it was difficult to think about it even if they were not familiar with it.
"That girl is nice, a serious girlfriend?"
"Brother Hu, what do you mean by serious or not? She does have a relationship with me, she is my girlfriend."
"I envy you young people. You can have as many girlfriends as you want."
The speaker was a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face. He looked serious, but his words were not serious at all.
Hu Xiaohua joked: "Brother Ma, this is not just for young people. You can do it too. You can change it every day."
Everyone laughed, and Mr. Wang scolded Hu Zhicheng: "Xiao Hu, if you can change your habit of being a playboy, your company will be bigger than what it is now."
Hu Xiaohua smiled nonchalantly and said: "I am very satisfied with the current scale. I am a conservative king. I will leave the development to the next generation, haha."
"It's worthless." Mr. Wang glared at him fiercely.
Chen Hong, the only middle-aged man among the four who remained silent, spoke at this time: "Mr. Wang, he's been like this for so many years, haven't you gotten used to it?"
"Brother Hong still understands me." Hu Xiaohua smiled at Chen Hong.
Mr. Wang shook his head, then looked at Zhou Chen and asked, "My old man's birthday will be here soon. Remember to drive over and take me with you."
"No problem, Mr. Wang, don't worry, I promise to be on time."
Zhou Chen naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
Chen Hong said with envy on his face: "Mr. Wang, you still have the ability. It's not easy for us people to even meet Mr. Zhou, let alone wish him a birthday."
Hu Xiaohua and Zheng Liyuan also nodded repeatedly. They all have some friendship with the Zhou family. They were Zhou Chen's parents before and now they are Zhou Chen.
But Mr. Zhou is beyond their reach.
Zhou Chen shrugged and said: "There's nothing I can do about it. If you have a friendship with the old man like Mr. Wang, I can take you there."
Mr. Wang showed a satisfied expression. Mr. Zhou's birthday was never announced to the public, and he would not hold any special events. Only people who were very close to him could go and wish him birthday.
The reason why he was able to go was because his father had helped the Zhou family once. More than ten years ago, Mr. Wang suffered from a serious illness, but he was cured by Mr. Zhou. Therefore, although Mr. Wang is only about ten years younger than Mr. Zhou,
Years old, but he respects Mr. Zhou as an elder.
Mr. Wang said to Zhou Chen: "Xiao Chen, have you prepared the gift for the old man? You are the old man's only grandson. Don't make the old man angry like you did in the past, and in the end you couldn't even get on the table."
"Mr. Wang, can you not pick up any of the pots without opening them?"
Zhou Chen had a wry smile on his face, he knew the whole story from his memory.
Mr. Zhou has been dealing with medicine and medicinal materials all his life. One time, in order to please the old man, he prepared a special gift.
He carved a precious Polygonum multiflorum plant into a sculpture, which looked very good, but it aroused the thunderous wrath of Mr. Zhou.
Because Mr. Zhou cherishes medicinal materials very much and hates wasting medicinal materials, especially precious medicinal materials, Zhou Chen was taught a hard lesson that time, and Mr. Wang often made fun of him about it.
"But don't worry, Mr. Wang, the gift I prepared this time will definitely make the old man very happy."
He was very confident about this gift. If this gift could not make the old man happy, then probably nothing could make him happy.
"I hope you don't do stupid things again."
Because of his relationship with Mr. Zhou, Mr. Wang also cherishes Zhou Chen as his own junior.
Several people then started a discussion around the recent business, and Zhou Chen discovered a problem. Their industries were basically physical industries, which relied on manpower to support them, such as the transportation industry, factories, etc.
Most of what they talked about was about real industries. Although they occasionally talked about finance and new media, they just talked casually and none of them seemed to be too interested.
However, Zhou Chen soon figured out that these people were not from the rich generation. They all inherited the industries of the previous generation. The industries of that era were basically physical industries.
Everyone knows that finance makes money, but it does not mean that everyone is willing to get involved in this industry, because this industry is indeed very frothy compared to the real industry.
Although Zhou Chen has lived for many years, he can still learn a lot by listening to the exchanges between these elders.
While he was talking, suddenly there was a burst of noise in the hall, as if something had happened, which caused several people to stop talking and turn their heads to look in that direction.
"Xiao Zheng, what's going on? Is there anyone else making trouble?" Mr. Wang asked Zheng Liyuan strangely.
Zheng Liyuan's face was gloomy at this time. This was a dinner party he held, but something went wrong before it officially started. Wasn't this a slap in his face?
"Wait a minute, everyone. I'll go over immediately to see what's going on?"
With that said, he hurried over.
Zhou Chen, who had good hearing, changed his expression slightly, because in the voice just now, he seemed to have heard Zhao Jingyu's exclamation.
He has a strong ability to identify sounds, especially Zhao Jingyu's voice. He has heard it often recently, so he feels that he will not hear it wrong.
"Mr. Wang, it seems something happened to my female companion. I'll go over and have a look." Then he walked over quickly.
Hu Xiaohua was originally sitting. When he heard this, he immediately stood up: "Mr. Wang, Brother Hong, Brother Ma, let's go over and have a look too."
