Chapter 382 Comparison of the Special Customization of the Club
At this moment, the Chanel saleswoman came over and said with a professional smile, "Ms. Jiang, I've got the gold RUBAN necklace you asked for. Would you like to try it on?"
"Uh, ah, let's not try it today. Let's do it another day."
Jiang Wanyi quickly waved her hand and dragged her husband away.
"What could be more important than shopping? Just give it a try. I'll give you some advice."
Liu Menglu smiled and called the two of them over. She took the necklace from the salesgirl and examined it carefully. "It's quite exquisite. Wanyi, you have good taste. Try it on your neck and I'll help you put it on."
Jiang Wanyi had no idea what Liu Menglu was up to. They had such a fight yesterday, and now you want to help me put on the necklace?
Are you losing your memory?
When Liu Menglu raised the necklace to her chest, she had no choice but to cooperate, while cursing in her heart.
Because the longer she stayed here, the more uneasy she felt, and the more she disliked her husband.
It's shameful, so shameful.
Can't you just take a look at the other person's partner!
He has outstanding looks, a tall and well-proportioned figure, and his clothes are clean and fitting. More importantly, his words and actions are particularly calm and composed.
It's bad enough that you're not as rich as others, and you're fat and big-eared. But look how awkward you are, and if you don't know, you might think you've found your long-lost father!
Dong Tao's mood was also very complicated. After Jiang Wanyi came home last night, she quarreled with him and asked for a divorce.
He didn't know what went wrong, but after cursing for a while, he realized that his appointment with Liu Menglu that night had been discovered.
The night I made the appointment with her, I drank a lot at a social event and suddenly went into the circle of friends of my college sweetheart. I found that she was getting more and more beautiful and she dressed better than in college. I didn't see any trace of her boyfriend in her circle of friends.
The thought of driving a Range Rover and running his own company, coupled with the effect of alcohol, made his self-confidence swell.
So what if he has a wife and kids? Isn't it normal for successful people to have three wives and four concubines?
Immediately, he sent a WeChat message to Liu Menglu.
She thought that Liu Menglu would look up to him after knowing that she had succeeded in starting a business, but the result was the same as in college, the news fell into oblivion as soon as it was sent out.
I regretted it so much when I woke up in the morning, because Jiang Wanyi and Liu Menglu were roommates and had been in contact and had gatherings in recent years. If they were discovered, they would have a big fight.
After observing calmly for a while, Dong Tao thought that Liu Menglu had not reported her, but it happened last night.
There was no other way. In order to please my wife, I could only suggest that I accompany her to go shopping at IFC today.
I didn't expect to meet my college sweetheart and her boyfriend here.
Dong Tao was a little dazed when they met again after many years.
She has fair skin, charming curves, and her facial features are more three-dimensional than in the photos.
Not only does she look and have a better figure, she also becomes better at dressing up, and her temperament has also changed a lot.
She is elegant, calm, dignified, and has a charm that is not seen in her wife.
Liu Menglu, who was like this, and was wearing all these luxury goods, made him feel frustrated and unworthy.
It turns out that even Range Rover couldn't make him stand up straight in front of Liu Menglu.
Looking at Jiang Wanyi again, he shook his head in his heart. Even if she put several layers of high-end cosmetics on her face, she would just be a yellow-faced woman in front of a woman like Liu Menglu.
In terms of figure, appearance, temperament, she is beaten in every aspect.
Hey, why did I marry Jiang Wanyi in the first place?
Feelings of regret and disgust spread in his heart. He subconsciously took out the cigarette box from his pocket, but when he remembered that he couldn't smoke here, he put it back.
"Yeah, it suits you very well."
Liu Menglu helped Jiang Wanyi put it on, took a step back, looked at her with her chin in her hand, and then nodded with satisfaction.
"Let's get this one. Let's buy sister styles. You get the gold one and I get the silver one."
Liu Menglu said to the salesgirl, "Please help me get a silver one to try."
"Okay, please wait."
The salesgirl's eyes lit up immediately and she went to get it immediately.
In her eyes, this lady's purchasing power is obviously stronger than Ms. Jiang's. She wears a Balenciaga dress, Versace high heels, and a Bulgari DIVAS'DREAM watch on her wrist.
Of course, the most important thing is the rich guy next to her. A Patek Philippe Nautilus watch is enough to show his worth.
In contrast, Ms. Jiang just asked her to pick up the necklace, and then she was in a hurry to leave, showing no courtesy at all.
"Please take a look."
After a while, the salesgirl came back with a silver necklace.
"good."
The salesgirl's attentiveness was not obvious, at least on the surface she was very enthusiastic, but Jiang Wanyi still noticed that her attitude towards herself and Liu Menglu was somewhat different.
The steps were lighter, the voices more earnest.
You are such a snob that you even classify customers into different levels. Jiang Wanyi was very upset, but she couldn't get angry and could only endure it.
Liu Menglu put on the necklace and posed a few times towards Shen Yuan: "Honey, how about this one?"
Jiang Wanyi was stunned for a moment. She didn't even ask the price and just wanted to buy it after taking two glances. Was she so hasty?
"Okay, see if you want to buy something else."
Shen Yuan could see that Jiang Wanyi had probably offended Coach Liu.
In accordance with Coach Liu's revengeful character, this time he attacked directly at the opponent's face.
Of course, he didn't need to do anything, just stand there and help her swipe the card, Shen Yuan was happy to see it happen.
"Thank you, husband. Hehe, I'll take a look then."
Liu Menglu smiled sweetly and said to the salesgirl, "Please help me pack this first."
The salesgirl was delighted and went to do it immediately. If she met this kind of customer who bought things without looking at the price, she could basically achieve her performance target for this week and she could have a day off tomorrow.
As for Ms. Jiang? Go ahead!
But this made Jiang Wanyi feel very uncomfortable.
Buy it, this necklace costs more than 70,000 yuan, and the style is not what she likes.
If I don't buy it, wouldn't that be like giving up? It also indirectly means that my husband has no money.
Jiang Wanyi gritted her teeth and glanced at Dong Tao.
Dong Tao's face looked a little ugly, thinking to himself, what's the point of breaking a few chains and costing more than 70,000 yuan?
I can buy you dozens of them for 70 yuan on Pinbaobao.
But he was also helpless. If he said he didn't want to buy it, they would start arguing before he even got home.
Dong Tao had no choice but to bear the pain and nodded, saying, "Okay, then let the salesgirl pack it up."
Then, he looked at Shen Yuan again. This guy looked calm and composed, and asked Liu Menglu to choose again.
No, man, what kind of family do you have? Why are you squandering money like this?
After buying the chain, the two walked out of Chanel dejectedly. They didn’t dare to stay in IFC for long and went straight out of the parking lot.
Originally, Jiang Wanyi planned to pick out two bags and buy some cosmetics and clothes, but a chain ended up destroying her budget.
After getting on the passenger seat of the Range Rover, Jiang Wanyi said dissatisfiedly, "What were you doing just now? What do you mean by 'OK'? You said it so embarrassedly. Are you so reluctant to buy something for me? Others will think we can't afford it if they hear it."
Dong Tao had just seen the contrast between Bai Yueguang and his own yellow-faced wife, and he was already in a heavy mood. Now when he heard that he had just spent 70,000 to buy her a broken chain, and she was still blaming him in return, he couldn't help it immediately.
"How dare you say that? You didn't really like this chain in the first place, but you insisted on ordering it out of vanity. And what was the result? Did it make you proud?"
Jiang Wanyi got even angrier when she heard this. "Dong Tao, you were crushed in all aspects today. You looked like a clown standing in front of others, and you still have the nerve to talk about me?"
"Dong Tao, what do you mean? Are you regretting buying me this necklace? I followed you when you were in the most difficult time and even gave birth to two children for you. And this is how you treat me?"
Dong Tao laughed in anger: "Whenever we have an argument, you bring up the children and the most difficult times. Did you have a good life back then? Can't you learn from Liu Menglu, act a little more coquettishly, be a little sweet-talker, and manage your image better?"
"Dong Tao! You stupid, dumb fat pig!"
Jiang Wanyi immediately exploded: "So you're still thinking about that damn witch! Do you want a divorce?"
“.”
Shen Yuan probably couldn't have imagined that a chance encounter, a face-to-face encounter, and a few short words could bring a marriage to the brink of extinction.
After shopping at Chanel, Shen Yuan listened to Liu Menglu's explanation of the whole story and found it quite interesting. They had obviously disliked each other since college, but they were able to maintain a superficial relationship until now.
If you look into the reasons, you will find that both of them are actually waiting for the day when they will be slapped in the face.
If it were any other woman, Jiang Wanyi would have successfully slapped him in the face.
However, having met Liu Menglu, I can only blame myself for my bad luck.
Liu Menglu was particularly satisfied now. She took Shen Yuan's hand and smiled: "Husband, actually, I asked you to accompany me shopping today because I knew she would bring her husband. Do you have any objections to me?"
"You're using me to show off your power. I'm very dissatisfied with you. As a punishment, you can only call me dad from now on."
"Dad, I love you~ Hehe, thank you Dad~"
Liu Menglu whispered in Shen Yuan's ear that no matter what she was asked to do now, she would not refuse.
This trip today not only allowed me to buy a lot of luxury goods that I wanted, but more importantly, I was able to successfully show off in front of Jiang Wanyi.
I want you to say bad things about me behind my back! I want you to say bad things about me borrowing cars and houses behind my back!
I'll make you brag about your husband! I'll make you brag about your Range Rover and E300!
Now she has a feeling of invincibility that "Shen Yuan is beside me, and the world is mine".
No matter which clown tries to show off in front of her, she has the confidence to slap him back!
Come on, come on!
Every dog that passes by must be slapped twice!
At noon, the two of them had a barbecue at IFC, and then started buying what Shen Yuan wanted.
100-inch 8K Sony monitor, Harman Kardon BDS800 series speakers, two 27-inch 4K monitors, keyboard, mouse, 4090
Originally, Shen Yuan thought that he would only use it occasionally to play LOL with the class beauty, and whether buying 4090 would be an overkill. But after thinking about it, he placed the order. Maybe it would come in handy when he needed to play 3A games one day.
In addition to upgrading the equipment in the home theater and e-sports room, Shen Yuan also picked out some gifts for Teacher Li and Li Meng. He would be going there in two days, so he had to bring some sincerity with him.
At 2 pm, the two went to Sinan International Business Club.
Following the navigation, G63 arrived at the foot of Lushan Mountain, passed a security post, and entered a two-lane asphalt road.
There were almost no cars on this road, and there were woodlands on both sides. Liu Menglu stared at the window sill and said blankly, "Hubby, where are you taking me? This place is so remote. Are you planning to sell me out?"
Shen Yuan smiled and said, “Let me ask you, what is this kind of woodland best suited for?”
Liu Menglu was stunned for a moment, then hit Chen Yuan's arm: "Bad guy."
After driving for about 20 minutes, the G63 finally drove out of the woods. The road ahead suddenly opened up, and a five-story Western-style building stood before us.
"arrive."
There was already a uniformed guide in front directing the car to park. When Shen Yuan parked the car, a middle-aged man in a suit and glasses walked up quickly to open the door.
"Mr. Shen, good afternoon!"
Then he extended his warm hands.
"Well, Tang Zhixue, right?"
Shen Yuan glanced at him. He had a standard Mediterranean hairstyle, with the middle part smooth like a mirror and thick hair all around.
This guy must have a lot of worries, otherwise he wouldn't be so bald.
“Mr. Shen is me.”
Tang Zhixue smiled and nodded, then looked at Liu Menglu: "Ma'am, good afternoon."
Shen Yuan introduced: "My girlfriend, her last name is Liu."
Hearing Shen Yuan say that she was his girlfriend, Tang Zhixue became more serious. He took out his business card holder and pulled out a business card and said, "Hello, Ms. Liu. This is my business card. I am the general manager of Sinan. My last name is Tang. You can just call me Xiao Tang."
"Hello, Manager Tang."
Liu Menglu felt even happier. As a canary, what could make her happier than a man admitting that he was her girlfriend in front of other people?
She took the business card and then looked at Tang Zhixue carefully. This kind of person would be considered a superior in the outside world, but he was very humble in front of Shen Yuan.
Then, Tang Zhixue led the two of them inside. As soon as they reached the door, they found two rows of uniformed personnel standing in neat rows.
The left side is full of men in uniforms or suits, while the right side is full of women in cheongsams and pencil skirts.
When Shen Yuan came over, the two rows of people bowed 90 degrees in unison and said in unison: "Welcome Mr. Shen home!"
"I heard that Mr. Shen is coming to inspect, so everyone spontaneously organized to welcome you."
Tang Zhixue explained later.
Shen Yuan nodded.
However, this scene scared Liu Menglu. It was her first time to come to such a place. There were about forty or fifty people in these two rows. The sound and the coordinated movements made the momentum very loud.
She also discovered that among these people in uniform were not only chefs, sommeliers, and waiters, but also some special women.
These women wore a series of cheongsams, with slim figures and delicate features. If they were to go out, they would be considered beauties.
The key is that there are also blonde hair, blue eyes, exotic facial features, high nose bridge and snow-white skin.
I’m afraid this club is not very serious, right?
Shen Yuan looked at the interior decoration. The exterior of the building was European-style, and the decoration was also European retro style. At first glance, it had a sense of magnificent luxury, but now this design is out of date.
But you have to take into account that it was renovated in 2000 and refurbished again around 2010, when this style was still quite fashionable.
The staff office area and rest area are both on the second floor. Although there are only five floors, there is an elevator. Tang Zhi introduced them as he walked, "Mr. Shen, would you like to go to your office first, or should I take you on a tour of the entire club?"
"Take a tour first and let me introduce the club's business."
“Okay, Mr. Shen.”
Tang Zhixue took a deep breath and then slowly began to talk.
He had a good relationship with his former boss, so the former boss told him a week ago that there would be a change of ownership. He didn't expect it to be so sudden and wanted to know more details, but the former boss said that this was all he could tell him.
At that time, he understood that the club was going to welcome a great Buddha with a deeper background.
This means that you have to be more cautious.
"The club's main services include French and Japanese cuisine, wine tasting, a high-end gym, hydrotherapy and spa, a private cinema, small concerts, and business dinners."
"The club's income is mainly divided into three parts. The first is the annual membership fee, which is 128,000 yuan a year. The second is consumer income, which is the business mentioned above. The last part is special customization, which accounts for the majority of consumption."
"Special customization, including customized catering, small concerts, theme parties. Yes, the kind of party you're thinking of."
Shen Yuan nodded.
In fact, he had already learned almost everything through his lawyer that morning, and he also had an investigation report from Chenlang Law Firm in his hand.
It includes the club's due diligence, operating model, operating segments, main revenue, profit, valuation, hidden debt, etc.
According to the report, this club is a healthy asset with stable profits and operations.
The club was established in 2000, and at that time it implemented a membership cap system, with a maximum of 2,000 members, and membership required an introduction from a senior member.
If the membership is full, new members will not be allowed to join until someone voluntarily withdraws from the membership or someone fails to pay the annual fee for half a year.
Under this system, the entry threshold is very high, which ensures the club's prestige and the quality of its services. That's why Xie Chengbo and Lao Jin boasted about being members of this club.
