"Hello, Mr. Lu. I'm Tom Ding, the general manager of the Banshan Hotel. You can just call me Tom."
Having lived in the presidential suite for more than a month, Lu Hao had already become a key guest of the hotel group. General Manager Ding's attitude was warm and respectful.
Even at the Mid-Levels Hotel, where celebrities gather, guests like Lu Hao are not common.
The current economic environment is in recession, and five-star hotels are competing fiercely for customers. These customers are definitely treated as the apple of their eye.
The corners of Lu Hao's mouth twitched slightly.
The name Tom Ding seems vaguely familiar. Where have I heard it before?
Without saying anything, I entered the reception room at his invitation.
Take a seat.
"Mr. Lu, coffee or tea?"
"No need, let's get down to business."
Lu Hao waved his hand.
"It's not a big deal, actually. I just want to book your hotel for the next two months, starting today. How much can you calculate?"
The system stipulates that you cannot buy a house, but there is no restriction on booking a hotel.
Moreover, as long as the money is spent within these three days, it will be fine.
Book a hotel for two months, pay within three days, and you don’t have to spend any extra money afterwards.
Mr. Ding: ...
The smile on her face almost froze, and she stared at Lu Hao blankly, her mind racing.
It’s not that I haven’t booked a hotel before, for example when hosting some important event, but that would only last three days at most. Who would have the time to book a hotel for two months?
Too much money to burn?
"Excuse me, do you have an important business dinner? Or?"
"Making a movie."
Lu Hao had already thought about it.
The system only prohibits investment, but does not prohibit film making.
We booked this hotel just in time to shoot a Spring Festival film, what a delight.
Hearing this, Mr. Ding suddenly understood.
There are many people in the crew, so staying in a hotel while filming is a common practice.
Of course, it is rare for a crew to be so luxurious as to have everyone staying in a five-star hotel.
"You are a distinguished guest of our hotel group. I can offer you a cooperative price of up to 20% off. In addition, other employees of your company will also be able to enjoy this discount when they travel on business in the future."
After some calculation, Mr. Ding said tentatively.
"Just tell me how much it is."
Sensing Lu Hao's straightforwardness, President Ding didn't beat around the bush and said with a smile, "Two months, twenty-four million. With a 20% discount, that's nineteen million, three hundred and twenty thousand. Do you think this price is acceptable?"
A five-star hotel generally has an annual revenue of only around 100 million yuan, and the end of the year is basically the off-season.
With such a large order, Mr. Ding couldn't help but feel a little nervous, but his voice remained steady.
“So cheap?”
Lu Hao said subconsciously.
I have never done this kind of operation before. I always thought that a five-star hotel was very high-end and thought that it would be at least half of the small goal. However, I didn’t expect that it would be less than one-fifth of the small goal.
Why……
It seems like I really don’t feel anything about tens of millions now.
Mr. Ding: ...
A bit autistic.
He had experienced many ups and downs, but at this moment he didn't know and couldn't tell whether Lu Hao was speaking in a serious or sarcastic way.
I could only reply awkwardly: "Mr. Lu, you must be joking..."
"Okay, that's settled then. I'll arrange the payment today, and I'll have my assistant contact you to sign the contract later."
Lu Hao stood up.
Take a deep breath.
Shake your head and smile.
I originally wanted to learn the trick from Wang Duoyu and bargain in reverse, but I really couldn't say it out loud.
Movies are movies after all. Only the greatest drama can produce a strong comedic effect.
…
That's right.
The movie that Lu Hao is planning to release during the Spring Festival is the classic comedy "The Richest Tomato".
Originally, he was a little hesitant.
Is it Stephen Chow's nonsensical comedy style or Happy Twist's comedy style?
However, since the system provides a three-day compulsory consumption card, I simply chose the latter.
This comedy movie about showing off wealth is very appropriate.
…
"You booked the entire hotel?"
When he returned to the room, he mentioned it casually, and Chu Wen was stunned.
Crazy?
"OK."
Lu Hao smiled and nodded.
"Why?"
"Make a movie."
Chu Wen said "Oh" and understood, then quickly became curious, "What movie?"
Even if you're making a movie, you don't have to be so extravagant, right?
"You'll know when the filming starts."
Lu Hao didn't explain too much. He collapsed on the sofa, his head resting on Chu Wen's legs, his fingers unconsciously drawing circles.
Still thinking about what to buy.
"Is there anything you particularly want to buy but can't afford?"
"Yes, I have."
"What?"
"I've always wanted to buy an asteroid. The vast universe, the sky full of stars, and the thought of one being named after me is so romantic. But they're very expensive. The cheapest ones are several million dollars."
Lu Hao was speechless.
What's going on in this literary young woman's mind?
Shouldn't a normal woman think about brand-name clothes, bags, cosmetics, and jewelry? Why are you thinking about buying a barren planet?
Go up and farm?
Why don’t you want a moon?
Do you want the sun?
However, since I'm buying her a gift, I naturally have to do whatever she says.
Everyone has their own aspirations. Some people spend money to buy vanity, while others like to spend money to buy feelings.
Chu Wen is obviously the latter.
"Shall I buy you one?"
ah?
Chu Wen was stunned.
She knew that Lu Hao was rich and could definitely afford it, but she just said it casually and didn't really want it.
