The next day.
Qin Ran got in Xu Fei's car and headed to Yuhuatai Restaurant.
The day before yesterday, when Xu Fei heard Qin Ran say that he wanted to find someone from the Grand Theater, he made an appointment with Cao Yang, the deputy director of the office, that night.
It’s just that Cao Yang was inspecting a theater in Qilu at the time and only came back last night.
Xu Fei naturally took Qin Ran's initiative to propose something, so he directly asked Cao Yang to have dinner together today and helped introduce them.
On the way to Yuhua Terrace, Xu Fei briefly told Qin Ran about Cao Yang and the general situation of the Grand Theater.
The organizational structure of the National Centre for the Performing Arts is relatively complex, encompassing multiple systems including performance operations, art education exchanges, and theatre management.
Each system is divided into several departments.
Cao Yang is the deputy director of the marketing department of the performance operation system. He has real power, and considerable power. It is not a retirement position.
The Marketing Department is mainly responsible for marketing and ticketing marketing.
Xu Fei and Cao Yang have known each other for several years and have a pretty good relationship.
Greetings are indispensable during festivals and holidays, and gifts are occasionally given to each other.
Xu Fei is the vice president of Xiaomi. He has extensive network resources and Cao Yang also values him very much.
Cao Yang is a rather worldly-wise and smooth-talking person, but he has a deep knowledge of art, is not a very greedy person, and likes food.
Yuhuatai is a time-honored restaurant in Beijing, specializing in Huaiyang cuisine.
Xu Fei also prepared the wine. It was not a particularly famous wine, but an aged wine called Taonan Xiang Wine.
The price is not only not expensive, it is also very cheap.
Cao Yang likes this. He likes delicious food, drinking a little wine and listening to some music.
This wine also indicates the nature of today's gathering.
It's just a gathering of friends to meet new people, it's not that formal.
Of course, Xu Fei also prepared a box of good wine and asked Cao Yang to take it back after dinner.
Just like between good friends, smoking cheap cigarettes is one thing, but giving gifts and paying dividends is definitely necessary.
Xu Fei told Qin Ran not to worry, and that it would be no problem to help a little.
The two of them arrived at Yuhuatai first.
Qin Ran had never been here before, but Xu Fei had been here many times.
Many people like Huaiyang cuisine because it tastes good. Except for those who particularly like spicy food, people from all over the world think Huaiyang cuisine is good.
She often entertained guests at Yuhuatai, so she was very familiar with the manager.
Xu Fei briefly greeted the manager and introduced the famous paintings in the store to Qin Ran.
In addition to the dishes, Yuhuatai has another specialty.
It has a strong cultural atmosphere and many literati and painters love to eat here.
It has been like this since the last century and is very popular!
Zhang Daqian's paintings, Qi Baishi's calligraphy, and calligraphy and paintings by many other famous artists.
Qin Ran looked at the painting on the wall curiously. "Is this landscape painting an authentic one?"
"Is it important?" Xu Fei smiled. "In the past, Zhang Daqian and Qi Baishi were both frequent visitors here, coming at least once or twice a month. These are all true."
Qin Ran was stunned for a moment, then he understood.
Looking around, there is a strong atmosphere of literature.
Perhaps Cao Yang likes to come to Yuhuatai for dinner not only because the food is delicious, but also because the environment is a very important factor.
It is said that intellectuals look down on each other, but that is not entirely true.
The friendship between gentlemen is as pure as water, which also makes people yearn for it.
Xu Fei took Qin Ran for a walk and suggested that he could choose Yuhuatai when entertaining guests in the future, as it was generally a good choice.
Qin Ran's base is in Zhonghai, so it's rare for him to come to the capital.
However, thinking that he was a major shareholder of Wuyou Media, it would be nice to come to Beijing occasionally to have a meal and get together with Lei Binyi and Luo Yuheng.
Before we had financing, we were living a tight life.
Bringing them out for a good meal is also a good way to win their hearts.
Qin Ran got to know the hotel manager through Xu Fei and asked for his number so that he could book a private room in the future.
The three of them chatted for a while and then went to the box.
Xu Fei carefully checked the private room and asked the waiter to make another pot of good tea and wait for the dishes to be served.
Many times, details can inadvertently have a big impact.
Xu Fei gave Qin Ran another lesson.
Good relationships are good, but hospitality cannot be neglected.
Kieran lamented that he still had a lot to learn.
After sitting for about ten minutes, the door of the box was pushed open and a man in his late forties walked in. He was not tall and was rather thin.
The crow's feet are deep and impressive.
Xu Fei stood up and said with a smile, "Director Cao, why didn't you tell me in advance so I could go pick you up."
"Why are you being so polite? We're old acquaintances."
"Come, let me introduce you. This is my younger brother, Qin Ran. He's the person in charge of the An Group's liaison with our little Mi. He's young and promising."
Cao Yang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'm older, so I'll call you Brother Qin."
"Okay, Brother Cao."
"Director Cao, should I change my words too?"
"You don't need to. Let's talk about our own things."
"Then Director Cao must take better care of me, your younger brother, from now on."
"What? Brother Qin wants to come to our theater? Don't you want to be a star?"
"Isn't Director Cao the one who dislikes celebrities the most?"
"Oh, I never said that. Being a star is much more glamorous than performing in our theater. And my daughter is also a fan, and I can't stop her."
"My brother has no plans to enter the entertainment industry. Besides, he's much more capable than I am. Come, Director Cao, sit down and talk."
Xu Fei pointed at the two bottles of Taonan Xiang wine on the table and said, "I brought your favorite wine today, so please drink more."
"You're the best. You remember what I like to drink. Can you drink it, Brother Qin?"
"I can drink a little."
