At noon, General Manager Hong hosted a lunch, and Lu Feng was happy to accept this generous offer. He spoke ambiguously, saying that nothing had been decided yet for some direct questions.
"I'm going down to pick someone up!" President Hong stood up and walked out.
Liu Cheng glanced at Lu Feng and said, "President Lu, the quality of the parts is extremely important. The same price can result in vastly different quality depending on who you get them from."
"I know, don't worry."
Liu Cheng hesitated, feeling that Lu Feng should know more about this than he did. Keeping the cost below two thousand yuan was a technical task. His team had to work hard, but they also had to put pressure on the procurement department to exchange volume for price!
A few minutes later, Boss Hong walked in, followed by a woman in her forties, tall, with permed hair that was dyed a little yellow.
"Mr. Lu, let me introduce you. This is the general manager of Tiancheng Kindergarten. This kindergarten is the best in all of Shenzhen. Its facilities are up to international standards, and it's also a bilingual kindergarten with a full complement of foreigners!"
"Mr. Lu, hello, hello. My surname is Qi, you can call me Principal Qi. It is our honor that your daughter can study at our school." Principal Qi extended his hand politely.
"Please sit down, please sit down. This is my wife, and this is my daughter, Duoduo," Lu Feng said.
"Oh my, this child is so beautiful..." Principal Qi naturally showered the child with flattery.
The school gave a brief introduction, noting that it has very complete facilities and offers both full-time and part-time boarding options. It also has a primary school, making it a prestigious private school. After graduating from primary school, students can directly enter high schools in developed countries, and then world-renowned universities.
It's like a one-stop service for the rich, but it's a bit expensive. A kindergarten tuition of 50,000 yuan a year is still a long way from the threshold of world-renowned universities.
Lu Feng was quite familiar with these kinds of schools. In twenty or thirty years, the total cost of such schools per year would be one or two million yuan. They provide a one-stop recommendation service. If you want to get into a world-renowned university, the prerequisite is that you have to be able to afford it.
It's normal to spend hundreds of millions of yuan on kindergartens, primary schools, high schools, and universities, especially some world-renowned universities that require donations. Spending 30 or 50 million yuan as a stepping stone is perfectly normal.
The meal was exceptionally harmonious, without a trace of commercialism. The conversation revolved around children, comparing the present moment with their childhoods, and the topics were very lighthearted.
“There’s still a week before school starts. You can take your child to play during these few days. The school has quite a few facilities, including a garden, fountain, and children’s playground. Go and experience it for your child and let them get used to it. When would you be available? I will personally receive you then,” Principal Qi asked Jiang Xiaoyan.
"Um...we just arrived, let's settle in first and leave a phone number!" Jiang Xiaoyan took out the phone number only to find that the other phone number was no longer working.
"Principal Qi, leave your phone number, and we'll call you later. We just moved here and aren't very familiar with the area yet," Lu Feng said.
"Alright, alright, here's my business card. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Lu on moving to their new home! May your new home bring you many children and grandchildren!" Principal Qi placed the business card in front of Lu Feng and said, "I'll be going now. I have other matters to attend to. Excuse me."
"Okay, drive carefully." Lu Feng said politely, glancing at Jiang Xiaoyan beside him. Jiang Xiaoyan's expression had clearly stiffened after Principal Qi's words.
Lu Feng deliberately avoided the topic. He didn't know how to comfort a woman living in this era who was bound by such ideas. He had thought about it many times, and the only way was to let her start her own business, see a bigger sky, and become more confident.
"President Liu, you can go back now. Prepare for the meeting tomorrow. Get the design drawings and drafts ready!" Lu Feng instructed Liu Cheng before standing up and saying, "After we finish eating, let's go back to the villa and settle in."
"Don't worry, everything has been bought, slippers, towels, everything." Mr. Hong stood up and said.
A group of people went downstairs. Jiang Xiaoyan had already gotten into the car with Duoduo. Boss Hong came over and handed Lu Feng a cigarette, saying, "Boss Lu, give me more parts orders. I've been busy with all this. Business overseas isn't good this year."
"Mr. Hong, you can rest assured. How could I possibly let you down? This is all family business. When we first talked about needing supporting companies, you were the first person I thought of. Is there anything you, Mr. Hong, can't get done in this area?" Lu Feng patted his shoulder and assured him, "Don't worry, I heard you haven't quoted a price yet?"
"I've been waiting for you all this time."
"Then please provide the price list. Even if it's a little more expensive, as long as the quality is about the same, I'll definitely cooperate with Mr. Hong. I've seen the first batch of raw materials you helped transport, and they're excellent!"
Mr. Hong smiled broadly and nodded repeatedly.
Lu Feng waved his hand and got into the car. Boss Hong's previous goods were indeed of good quality and low price. After all, it was the first batch of sales. He didn't know what would happen later. Moreover, Zhang Fengxia had already contacted the companies that followed and had already started making contacts.
The car stopped again in front of the villa. It was noon, and the weather was hot, with temperatures well over 20 degrees Celsius. When we arrived this morning, Duoduo had already changed into a dress. At this moment, the villa, the sea, and the flower bushes were all so peaceful.
"I want to go to the beach, to play in the sea!" Duoduo jumped up and down, her little face beaming with excitement. This landlubber had an indescribable longing for the sea.
"Let's go home and take a look first." Jiang Xiaoyan took her hand and walked towards the villa.
At that time, everyone was an outsider, so Jiang Xiaoyan didn't show anything. Now, standing in the room, she looked left and right, her eyes sparkling, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her face.
