If it were in the mainland, the person in charge would be arrested by the police, but the system in Hong Kong is different from that in the mainland. Even the biggest problems can be solved with money. Although he is the person in charge of the hotel, he is not in charge of the ingredients, so he can just push the purchasing manager and the person in charge out.
Nie Zhan was silent for a moment and then said, "He said he was afraid that Grandpa would beat him, so he wanted to hide for two days and come back after Grandpa calmed down."
Lu Jiaxin just wanted to laugh. After such a big thing happened, he hid because he was afraid that the old man would beat him. Is there anything more ridiculous than this?
Nie Zhan explained: "My grandfather was so angry that he was admitted to the hospital. We have to give an explanation to the customers and the public after something happened, otherwise it will affect the reputation of the entire group."
That being said, we really can’t just sit back and watch.
Lu Jiaxin asked, "If you don't handle this kind of thing well, you will get into trouble. You should be careful."
Nie Zhan hummed and said, "I have tried my best to meet their requests. Now I have stabilized their emotions. I will take over the follow-up when Big Brother comes back."
"Your grandfather is such a smart man, why would he hand over the hotel to such a person to manage?"
Nie Zhan was silent for a moment, then said, "This is very complicated, and I can't explain it in just a few words."
Well, it seems that the Nie family is not as harmonious and harmonious as they appear. Lu Jiaxin asked, "Nie Zhan, how many shares do you have in Wansheng Real Estate?"
"Forty-one percent. Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
With 41% of the company's shares, he is definitely the largest shareholder. Lu Jiaxin thought Nie Zhan was just helping to run the company, and the shares were still in the hands of the old man, but she never expected that they were all transferred to him. It's good to distribute the family property earlier and avoid the quarrels between brothers.
Lu Jiaxin made up an excuse: "I think it's very promising to do real estate in Hong Kong. I'll do real estate business when I have money in the future."
In the past, she thought that the conflicts among wealthy families were caused by the head of the family holding on to power. But now she felt that it was not so easy to give up power. If she encountered an heir who was reckless or incompetent, the empire she had worked so hard to build would probably collapse.
Nie Zhan hummed and said, "Doing real estate in Hong Kong City is indeed very profitable, but this industry is also very complicated. Just follow me when the time comes."
He didn't want to keep talking about these bad things, so he changed the subject: "Jia Xin, did you find anything you liked while shopping today?"
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Yes, I bought several sets of clothes. Although they are not big brands, they are very unique."
Nie Zhan had long discovered that she only bought things that suited her and would not pursue big brands. She also had good taste, and the clothes, shoes, or bags she chose were all very beautiful when worn.
If it weren't for the hotel incident, he would have been on vacation with Lu Jiaxin now. Nie Zhan's mood suddenly became bad: "Jiaxin, next time you have time, I will go skiing with you again."
Lu Jiaxin snorted twice and said, "You broke the appointment twice. Nie Zhan, three times is the limit. If you break the appointment again next time, no matter what the reason is, I will not forgive you."
Originally, she was thinking about going skiing with Nie Zhan, and then establishing a relationship naturally. Now, humph, we have to wait and see.
Nie Zhan immediately apologized and said, "It's my fault. I promise I won't do it again next time."
After chatting for half an hour, Lu Jiaxin hung up the phone because she wanted to take a shower.
Nie Zhan said that he had appeased the family of the deceased and other guests and their families, but the price was a high compensation amount: "The deceased was compensated 1.8 million, and other guests were compensated according to the severity of their symptoms.
Nie Manli felt that the compensation was too high. The deceased was an old man in his seventies and in poor health. Even without this accident, he would not have lived long. However, she also knew that she had to suppress the matter as soon as possible, otherwise it would affect the entire group. She felt that the compensation was too much and did not say anything.
Old Master Nie said, "Let Nie Jingshu pay for this. If he doesn't have it, let him sell the assets under his name."
Nie Zhan said that money was secondary, the key point was that the hotel could not continue to operate after such an incident. And Nie Jingshu should not do business with his condition, so as to avoid the whole Nie family being implicated.
Mr. Nie was silent for a moment and then said, "Let's deal with this matter first. You can discuss how to deal with the hotel when Jingwen comes back."
Nie Zhan didn't say anything. Anyway, his attitude had already made it clear that he would not care no matter what happened next.
The old man had already had breakfast, and after finishing his business, he asked the butler to help him take a walk in the back garden.
Nie Zhan was about to go to work, but was stopped by Nie Manli. She said, "Zhan, your grandfather's old friend, Uncle Chen who is in the construction business, has a granddaughter who has returned from studying abroad."
Nie Zhan looked at her with an ambiguous expression after hearing this familiar opening remark.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Nie Manli showed him a photo and said, "This is your Uncle Chen's granddaughter. She's pretty and graduated from a prestigious university. She's a perfect match for you. Ah Zhan, when are you free? I'll arrange for you to meet."
Nie Zhan didn't take the photo, nor did he look at it: "Aunt, I have someone I like."
Nie Manli said in a very disdainful tone: "Ah Zhan, that mainland girl is not as pure as you think. She was engaged before and she was still having an affair with another man when she came to Hong Kong."
"Besides that, she sent her stepmother to prison and ruined her father's career. Such a person is not worthy of entering our home."
Nie Zhan said nothing, turned around and went to the back garden to find Old Man Nie, and told him that he was moving away: "Grandpa, I will come to see you when I have time."
In fact, he was reluctant to move into the Nie family's old house at first. Although his grandfather and his eldest brother and his wife were all good, Nie Jingshu and Kang Huijuan rejected him. The reason was simple. The couple believed that if Nie Zhan was not there, Wansheng Real Estate would definitely be given to them. It was only after his grandfather repeatedly requested and Nie Jingshu and his wife happened to move out that he agreed to move in.
Old Master Nie was stunned. Why did they have to move away when they were just fine? "What's going on?"
Nie Zhan didn't explain, but just said: "Grandpa, let Aunt handle the hotel matters herself! I have a lot of things to do in the company, and I don't have enough energy to handle these hotel matters."
The reason why he took over the hotel business this time was that Mr. Nie fell ill because of it, and he was worried that if he didn't handle it well, it would affect the reputation of the Nie family. And Nie Jingwen treated him well, but that didn't mean Nie Manli could interfere in his private life and marriage. Since she was so capable, she should clean up the mess for her son herself! "Ah Zhan, what happened?"
"Grandpa, go ask Auntie yourself!"
After saying this, he turned and left. But before leaving, he told the housekeeper to ask the servants to pack up his things, as the moving company would come later.
