Chapter 305 How to lose with two hangings in hand?
"Your aunt wants to see me?"
Qi Sheng was also very surprised when he received Jin Ying's call.
"Well, are you...free?"
Jin Ying was also feeling very nervous.
"Of course it's convenient. I'll arrange for the crew to apply for the route right away."
Qi Sheng agreed without hesitation. It was only right and reasonable for him to show up.
"That's great, I'll wait for you at the airport."
Jin Ying was extremely surprised. She didn't expect Qi Sheng would really come to see his aunt for her.
"Go directly to Wallich Residence. I have an apartment there. I'll go there directly after I get off the plane."
"Yeah, I'll wait for you then."
Jin Ying hung up the phone happily and came to the super luxury house that Qi Sheng had previously purchased in Singapore.
The concierge staff led her to the 62nd floor.
Jin Ying was shocked when she walked out of the elevator.
There are three floors, with a total area of 1,950 square meters.
This super mansion with an infinity pool is simply outrageously luxurious.
In addition to this luxury house, the floor downstairs was also bought by Qi Sheng.
Jin Ying knew without thinking that Qi Sheng must have brought his girlfriends here to play before.
This luxury house has four nannies who take turns cleaning it.
Seeing Jin Ying come in, he quickly bowed and greeted her.
"lady."
Even though Qi Sheng might not come here once a year, he would still clean the place thoroughly every week.
"Hello."
Jin Ying smiled and nodded to the nannies.
After the tour, it took me a long time to calm down.
There are indeed many wealthy people in Singapore.
But this luxury house is undoubtedly the number one luxury house.
When Dyson sold this mansion, it caused quite a stir.
At that time, Jin Ying also talked about this luxury house with her friends.
But she never dreamed that she would become the hostess of this super luxury house.
These four nannies are not only good at housework, but each of them has talents.
Two of them are responsible for cooking, and the other two are responsible for massage.
Fortunately, they are average looking.
Otherwise, Jin Ying would suspect that Qi Sheng was deliberately hiding a mistress in his house.
The fastest flight from China to Singapore takes at least five hours.
Jin Ying had a sound sleep in the mansion.
But in the second half of the night, I felt a familiar model.
Jin Ying put her arms around the man's neck and gave him a passionate and intense kiss.
"How can you sleep in black stockings like this? Are you waiting for me on purpose?"
Qi Sheng didn't originally intend to wake Jin Ying up, since she was dressed so seductively.
"Well...a reward for you."
Jin Ying said with her charming eyes, and clamped Qi Sheng's waist with her long legs.
After it was over, Qi Sheng took out a cigar from the bedside table.
Jin Ying insisted on helping him cut the cigar, and Qi Sheng let her do it.
I smoked a Black Dragon cigar which cost nearly 10,000 yuan.
Qi Sheng picked up the landline phone and said a few words.
After a while, the nanny brought an ice bucket and whiskey.
Drinking cold whiskey and occasionally taking a puff of cigar.
Holding a stunning beauty in his arms, living in the most expensive super mansion in Singapore.
Qi Sheng sometimes feels that he is a bit too extravagant.
But there was no way, the system gave him so much money.
If you don't find a way to spend it all, it would be a waste.
Jin Ying hated the smell of cigarettes, but she saw Qi Sheng enjoying it.
There was no disgust at all, but his eyes were full of love.
Even Qi Sheng's smoking movements looked very handsome in her eyes.
The full value of favorability is really unreasonable.
…
After sleeping for four hours while hugging Jin Ying, Qi Sheng recovered to a full state of energy.
Jin Ying didn't sleep well to begin with, and Qi Sheng tormented her for two hours.
She slept very soundly in Qi Sheng's arms.
"I got up."
Qi Sheng saw that it was almost eight o'clock, so he woke Jin Ying up.
"I haven't gotten enough sleep yet."
Jin Ying was yawning sleepily, and her frizzy hair looked so cute.
"It won't be too late to go to bed after you come back after meeting your aunt."
Qi Sheng coaxed Jin Ying and was very obedient during the washing process.
Otherwise, Jin Ying would be left alone and would be torn apart by him.
Singapore is not big, and Qi Sheng lives in the city center.
Logically, it should arrive soon.
It took half an hour to drive to reach Temasek’s headquarters building.
Qi Sheng looked at the ordinary office building in front of him.
It is really hard to imagine that the headquarters of Temasek, which is well-known in the investment circle, would be so simple.
“Is Temasek’s headquarters here?”
"Surprising, huh?"
Jin Ying smiled and held her boyfriend's arm, explaining: "It was my aunt who made the decision after she took office. It was to make Temasek's investment philosophy more down-to-earth, rather than aiming too high. Until now, it has not been relocated."
"Ms. He is indeed an extraordinary woman!"
Qi Sheng also sighed, and was led into the Temasek headquarters building by Jin Ying, who was familiar with the place.
"Boss Jin."
From time to time on the road, people greeted Jin Ying, but they looked at Qi Sheng with obvious surprise and curiosity.
As He Jing's niece, Jin Ying has an extremely famous background.
How can one not be curious about a man who can conquer such a gifted girl?
It must be said that Qi Sheng's appearance and height are perfect.
Many female employees looked at Qi Sheng with green eyes, which made Jin Ying so jealous that she hugged her boyfriend's arm tightly.
…
When they arrived at the CEO's office, Jin Ying asked the secretary to go in first to report.
After getting permission, he took Qi Sheng into the office.
"good."
He Jing cast a sharp gaze towards Qi Sheng, and seeing that he was calm, she nodded silently.
The young people she usually comes into contact with would subconsciously tremble when they see her.
There are very few people like Qi Sheng who can remain calm in front of him.
"Mr. He."
Qi Sheng bent slightly, because the other person was Jin Ying's aunt.
Due respect is definitely necessary.
"Don't be so formal, just call me auntie and sit over here."
He Jing smiled and waved her hand, showing great enthusiasm, and personally poured water for Qi Sheng and Jin Ying.
"Aunt."
Qi Sheng obediently changed the address and looked at the head of the top international venture capital firm.
He has short hair that is not dyed black on purpose, but has a lot of white hair over the years.
He doesn't look old at all, but rather has a heroic air.
"I heard from Yingying that you want to acquire the Four Seasons Hotel?"
He Jing sat on the sofa opposite, wanting to see where Qi Sheng got his confidence from.
"If Mr. He has any knowledge of the Banyan Tree Group, he must know how popular our sleep products are."
“Acquiring Four Seasons Hotel can reduce the time cost of Banyan Tree Group’s expansion.”
"Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts can also get support from Banyan Tree Group's sleep products, improving the defect of its original single brand."
“To consolidate and increase its market share and influence in the luxury hotel sector.”
"It can be said that the merger of the two is a powerful combination, not just a simple acquisition."
Qi Sheng talked eloquently about the benefits of the acquisition.
He Jing nodded slightly from time to time, indicating that she was listening carefully.
He Jing had already looked through the information of Banyan Tree Group when Jin Ying asked her for help.
He Jing, who has always had a keen sense of smell, discovered the huge changes brought about by Qi Sheng's taking over the Banyan Tree Group.
The original Banyan Tree Group was only considered to be doing okay in the high-end hotel sector.
But after being acquired by Qisheng, Banyan Tree's influence has become more and more popular.
Especially among high net worth individuals.
Banyan Tree began to distance itself from brands such as Waldorf Astoria and Four Seasons.
If I have to describe it specifically, it would probably be a luxury brand like Waldorf Astoria or Four Seasons, which can be considered a six-star hotel.
Banyan Tree has become a seven-star luxury hotel brand.
Even if the average room rate of Banyan Tree is higher, it will not affect the recognition and pursuit of it by high net worth individuals.
Four Seasons Hotels acquired Banyan Tree Group naturally to improve the sleeping experience.
Without improving the sleeping experience, Four Seasons will never be as good as Banyan Tree.
"I want to hear your opinion of Yingying's identity. Have you ever considered marrying her?"
He Jing suddenly asked, her eyes sharper than before.
"Well... I will marry Yingying, but in the short term, my career will be my priority."
Qi Sheng and Jin Ying looked at each other and couldn't help but smile in tacit understanding.
"This child's parents died early, and she has been with me and her uncle since she was a child. I have always raised her as a daughter. I hope you can treat her well in the future."
He Jing looked at Jin Ying with gentle eyes.
With her experience, it was not difficult for her to see that Qi Sheng really wanted to marry Jin Ying.
"However, I hope the wedding will be relatively low-key, preferably with only a small number of relatives and friends invited."
Qi Sheng added another one later to avoid a big uproar.
"Her uncle and I have sensitive identities, so this arrangement couldn't be better."
He Jing naturally would not object and would just invite a small number of distinguished guests to attend.
"However, her uncle will attend your wedding as a witness."
After He Jing said this, Jin Ying was so moved that she rushed over to her.
"Thank you, auntie."
Jin Ying didn't expect that He Jing would make such a promise.
In Singapore, her uncle is the undisputed god.
Only He Jing has the ability to have the founding father of Singapore serve as the witness at a wedding.
"Ahem, it's up to you."
Qi Sheng suddenly felt a little guilty and wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.
If he and Jin Ying got married and then divorced, would he be banned from entering Singapore? But that was a matter for later, when Jin Ying had a child.
Not only for his father's sake, but also for his child's sake, it is impossible not to let him come to Singapore.
…
Since the project itself was profitable, He Jing made the decision immediately.
Temasek provided a loan of US$2.5 billion, with the annual interest rate remaining at 10% as before.
Qi Sheng doesn't have to mortgage all his planes and overseas assets.
The high-quality properties in the country alone are enough to easily raise $1.5 billion.
After chatting with He Jing for a while, Qi Sheng and Jin Ying were able to leave.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
But He Jing asked them both to go to her house for dinner in the evening.
Given He Jing and others' status, they have basically no desires or demands for material things.
Qi Sheng didn't buy any expensive supplements.
In accordance with traditional customs, I brought some gifts and followed Jin Ying to get to know the place.
The strict guards at the door clearly showed that the residence in front of them was extraordinary.
Only after a close inspection did the guards let Qi Sheng and Jin Ying pass.
"Aunt, uncle, these are some gifts we bought."
Jin Ying put down what she was holding, took Qi Sheng's arm and introduced him.
"His name is Qi Sheng, and he's my boyfriend."
"I heard from your aunt that he is a very good young man."
Li Xianlong smiled and nodded to Qi Sheng.
He is tall and handsome, and is a perfect match for his wife's favorite niece.
"Come in and talk."
When I walked into the house, I saw a few unfamiliar figures.
"This is my eldest sister Li Xiuqi, this is my second brother Li Yipeng, this is my third brother Li Hongyi, and this is my fourth brother Li Haoyi."
Jin Ying introduced several of Li Xianlong's children to Qi Sheng.
Only Li Hongyi and Li Haoyi are my aunt's biological children.
The first two were born to Li Xianlong’s ex-wife.
After giving birth to Li Yipeng, Li Xianlong's ex-wife died.
Qi Sheng greeted everyone one by one and clearly felt that Li Hongyi and Li Haoyi were the most enthusiastic towards him.
The family dinner in the evening was also very sumptuous, with all the special dishes.
It can be seen that He Jing is very satisfied with Qi Sheng.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so grand.
Not only were all her children present, but she also called back her husband, who was busy with many things.
All of this, of course, is to give enough face to my niece.
"Ah Sheng, you don't mind me calling you that, right?"
Li Xianlong was also very curious about the family behind Qi Sheng.
Otherwise, how could he have assets worth tens of billions of dollars at such a young age?
"Of course I don't mind."
Qi Sheng was also a little curious about what the other party wanted to talk to him about.
"I heard from your aunt that you have a talent for business. Have you considered becoming a Singaporean citizen?"
Li Xianlong smiled and said, "The largest source of our country's overseas immigrants is your country."
"I appreciate your kindness, but I have never considered changing my nationality."
Qi Sheng understood Li Xianlong's thoughts.
Only by collecting taxes from the rich can the country's GDP be increased.
How much money can a poor person get?
Which of those wealthy immigrants here is not extremely rich?
“That’s a shame.”
Li Xianlong didn't say anything, but the atmosphere became a little cold.
Fortunately, He Jing spoke from time to time, and the meal was finally completed smoothly.
Without He Jing's reminder, Qi Sheng and Jin Ying took the initiative to say goodbye.
"Hubby, don't be angry. My uncle is also in a bad mood recently because of my cousin's matter."
Jin Ying sat in the back seat of the Phantom, carefully holding Qi Sheng's arm and speaking.
"I'm not that petty. It's not appropriate for businessmen and politicians to get too close."
Qi Sheng smiled and didn't take Li Xianlong's neglect to heart.
If it weren't for Jin Ying, they would just be strangers.
After all, Jin Ying is just a niece.
Qi Sheng has the support of the system, so he will not curry favor with the powerful and become a Singaporean citizen.
What's more, Li Xianlong is old.
Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
"Yeah, I'm glad you understand. Their family is a mess, after all."
"My cousin originally wanted to go into politics, but because my uncle's brother and sister accused him of wanting to run a family dynasty, he had to say he had no interest in politics."
Jin Ying talked about the Li family's gossip to cheer up Qi Sheng.
"It's not that easy to establish a family empire."
In his previous life, Qi Sheng had heard of Li Xianlong.
But I never expected that I would come into contact with him as a relative in this life.
Although they didn't talk much at the dinner table, Qi Sheng also felt that Li Hongyi, the second son who was highly expected by Li Xianlong, was not very suitable for a career in politics.
As for the eldest son, Li Yipeng, he had no chance of pursuing a career in politics because he was born with albinism and visual impairment.
The youngest son, Li Haoyi, is too young and will take too long to train.
"Although my uncle's sister and brother are very extreme, it is true that his brother's children are more talented in politics, and many people in China recognize this."
Jin Ying doesn't care about these.
No matter who comes to power, it will not affect her.
After all, the bond between her and the Li family is her aunt.
If her aunt dies, the relationship will naturally end.
"Let's not talk about that anymore. Have you decided which outfit you're going to wear tonight?"
Qi Sheng was not interested in politics, and asked while putting his arm around Jin Ying's slender waist.
"I won't tell you."
Jin Ying rolled her eyes at Qi Sheng.
I still feel a little embarrassed when I think about the little surprise I prepared.
It’s a rare opportunity to be alone with Qi Sheng, Jin Ying must cherish it.
…
Back at the Huali family, Qi Sheng looked at the several sets of uniforms prepared by Jin Ying.
There are office lady secretary outfits, nurse outfits, teacher outfits, and even pure JK outfits.
The queen wearing JK is so seductive.
Anyway, Qi Sheng was never idle.
The next day, he went to Temasek to sign the agreement by himself.
As for Jin Ying, she refused to get up no matter what.
After the agreement was signed, He Jing chatted for a few words and then sent Qi Sheng to the door.
With the US$2.5 billion from Temasek, Qi Sheng’s several prime properties in China were also mortgaged.
We borrowed US$1.5 billion from ICBC.
It's not a good idea to always take advantage of the same place.
Given the strength of Bank of China, taking out 1.5 billion US dollars is not a small matter.
As for the annual interest rate of 6%, it is slightly higher than that of CCB, but much cheaper than Temasek.
Plus Qi Sheng’s 1 billion US dollars and the 1 billion US dollars in Banyan Tree’s account.
Qi Sheng easily raised 6 billion US dollars.
"The relevant acquisition is being processed, please wait patiently..."
The system is as powerful as ever.
We agreed on 6 billion US dollars, and I won’t cheat Qi Sheng of a single cent.
In less than half a day, the three shareholders of the Four Seasons Hotel signed.
Bill Gates, Saudi Prince Alwaleed, and founder of Sharp.
Among them, Bill Gates and Prince Alwaleed each hold 47.5% of the shares and have equal voting rights.
If the system hadn't intervened, the two would definitely not have agreed to sell the Four Seasons Hotel.
Bill Gates, in particular, has a special sentimental attachment to the Four Seasons Hotel.
The original wedding was held at the Four Seasons Hotel.
But in front of the system, the former world's richest man had no choice but to sign obediently.
With the official announcement of Four Seasons Hotel, it was officially incorporated into the Banyan Tree Group.
Become a luxury brand on par with Banyan Tree, supported by its full range of sleep products.
The entire hotel industry was in an uproar.
The incorporation of Four Seasons Hotels, which owns 121 hotels and resorts and 46 residences, into Banyan Tree Group has directly caused the latter's strength to swell like a balloon.
Especially in the field of luxury hotels, Banyan Tree Group has added a new flagship brand - Four Seasons!
Combining the two is not as simple as 1+1.
Although the acquisition price was not low, Bill Gates was not very satisfied with it.
Bill Gates made an investment offer to Banyan Tree Group almost immediately after signing the contract.
The merged Banyan Tree Group was valued at US$10 billion and plans to invest US$2 billion.
If he had been in no position to make the decision directly, Chen Ye would have agreed without hesitation.
With 2 billion US dollars, they will expand faster.
But Qi Sheng refused without hesitation.
Even without the Banyan Tree Group, Bill Gates has given the Four Seasons Hotel a valuation of US$10 billion.
What's more, Qi Sheng has activated the sleep buff aura.
After several rounds of negotiation, Bill Gates gave the final offer.
Valuation of 15 billion US dollars, investment of 3 billion US dollars.
Almost all the money he got from the sale of Four Seasons Hotels was thrown into the merged Banyan Tree Group.
For Bill Gates, there is not much difference between 10 billion US dollars and 15 billion US dollars.
He is optimistic about the development potential of the high-end hotel sector.
Qi Sheng decided to quit while he was ahead and told Chen Ye to accept Bill Gates' offer.
There is a new member in the list of shareholders of Banyan Tree Group.
Former world's richest man, Bill Gates.
The valuation of US$15 billion also allows Banyan Tree Group to enjoy 60% of the system's revenue growth rights.
Two bonuses: revenue increase authority and sleep quality buff.
Banyan Tree Group’s performance will definitely be even more amazing.
With two hangs in hand, it's hard to lose! (End of this chapter)
