Ning Jiayan pondered for a moment, "Then I'll ask someone to find out if there are any cinemas ready for sale in Hong Kong.
If not, we can only consider other aspects.
However, most of the cinemas that are ready to be sold are in bad locations and are only sold halfway because they are not doing well.
Even if we take over, we will probably lose money.”
Yan Ning: "If the price is low, you can consider buying it. Even if the location is not good, it may not be impossible to develop it in the future."
Cities are constantly developing. Just because some locations are not good now doesn’t mean they will not be good in the future.
Moreover, the housing prices and land prices in Gangcheng have been rising, and the land in Gangcheng will be very valuable in the future.
Ning Jiayue, who was standing by, suddenly said, "Xiao Ning, do you want to open a movie theater? I know a place that would be suitable."
Yan Ning asked curiously, "Sister, what place is this?"
Ning Jiayue: "The two large shopping malls invested and constructed by the Ning Group in Wan Chai and Kwun Tong will be completed in two months.
The mall will soon start renting out. According to government regulations, it must have entertainment facilities.
If you want to open a cinema, you can rent a place in these two places.
From now on, the Ning Group will not rent out other cinema chains.”
"That's fine." Yan Ning turned his head and looked at Ning Jiayan, "Brother, we can rent a space in these two places to make a cinema. It would be best if we sign a long-term contract."
Ning Jiayan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and talk to him in person in the next two days."
Yan Ning looked at Ning Jiayue with a smile, "Big sister, thank you for helping us get in through the back door."
Ning Jiayue smiled and said, "I also have shares in Ningheng Films. Helping you is also helping myself."
At this moment, the landline in the living room suddenly rang, and Sister Huo Yan, who was sitting next to her, picked up the phone and answered it.
Huo Jieyan said a few words into the microphone, then looked at Yan Ning and said, "Xiao Ning, Xue Ning called to see you."
Yan Ning walked over and took the phone, "Hello, Xue Ning?"
Pei Xuening's chattering voice came over, "Cousin Ning, are you free tomorrow? Let's go shopping.
There's a new restaurant that opened in Central. The food is really good. How about we go there for lunch tomorrow?"
Yan Ning thought about it and decided that tomorrow was Saturday and she didn't have anything to do.
She agreed: "Okay, then where shall we meet tomorrow at noon?"
Pei Xue Ning: "I'll pick you up from Ning's house tomorrow morning, cousin Ning."
Yan Ning: "Alright, I'll wait for you at home tomorrow morning."
The two talked for a few more words before hanging up the phone.
Yan Ning put down the phone and returned to her seat. "Sister, tomorrow is Saturday. Are you going to rest at home or work overtime at the company?"
Ning Jiayue put down her coffee cup and said, "I'll take a break tomorrow morning and attend a business dinner in the evening."
Yan Ning said "Oh" and admired Ning Jiayue in his heart.
Originally, she was thinking of asking Ning Jiayue to go shopping together tomorrow.
…
Around ten-thirty the next morning, Pei Xue Ning arrived at the Ning family.
Yan Ning and Pei Xue Ning got into the Pei family's Rolls-Royce together and drove towards Central.
It was already eleven twenty when we arrived at the Chinese restaurant that Pei Xue Ning mentioned.
It was dinner time and the restaurant was almost full of customers.
Fortunately, Pei Xue Ning called in advance last night to reserve a seat.
The two entered the restaurant and told each other their names, and the waiter led them inside.
Not long after walking, as they passed a dining table, a woman suddenly called out, "Xue Ning."
Yan Ning and Pei Xue Ning looked over and saw four girls sitting there.
The one who called Pei Xue Ning just now was Pei Yuying. The two girls sitting opposite her were the youngest daughter of the first wife and the eldest daughter of the second wife of the Mu family.
That is, Mu Tingchen’s sister Mu Xinran and cousin Mu Xinya.
Yan Ning didn't know the girl sitting next to Pei Yuying.
Pei Xuening smiled at them, "Third sister, Sister Xinya, Sister Xinran, Miss Yao, what a coincidence, you are also having dinner here!"
Several people greeted each other.
Mu Xinran and Mu Xinya also greeted Yan Ning.
Pei Yuying looked at them and asked doubtfully, "Xue Ning, Xin Ran, do you also know this Miss Yan?"
She looked down on Yan Ning from the beginning, so she never thought of asking someone to investigate Yan Ning's identity.
Pei Xuening smiled and took Yan Ning's arm, "Third sister, let me introduce you, this is my cousin, Yan Ning.
She is the third daughter of the Ning family, my uncle's grandfather's side."
Mu Xinran also said: "Our Mu family and Ning family are old friends, so we both know Sister Yan Ning."
Pei Yuying smiled casually, "So that's how it is."
She didn't expect that Yan Ning was actually the third daughter of the Ning family. She actually underestimated Yan Ning.
But how could anyone who could get close to Mu Tingchen be a simple character!
After saying hello, Yan Ning took Pei Xue Ning and was about to leave.
At this time, Pei Yuying suddenly said: "Xue Ning, Miss Yan, there are no seats in the restaurant at this time.
Since we all know each other, why don’t we eat together?”
Yan Ning glanced at the four-seater dining table, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly, "No need, Miss Pei, we have already reserved a table."
After saying that, Pei Xue Ning took Yan Ning's arm and left.
The waiter took the two to a table in the distance and handed them two menus.
This restaurant has some new dishes. Judging from the names and pictures, the dishes tend to be spicy.
Yan Ning guessed that the owner of this restaurant must have some connection with Sichuan Province in the mainland.
The cuisine in Hong Kong has always been light in flavor.
This restaurant is also the first Chinese restaurant to focus on spicy flavors.
Yan Ning ordered a plate of boiled pork slices, minced pork and eggplant, and a pot of sour plum soup.
Pei Xue Ning ordered spicy chicken and pickled fish.
Yan Ning asked Pei Xue Ning and added two more bowls of rice.
After all, Sichuan cuisine tastes better when paired with rice.
After ordering the dishes and waiting for the waiter to leave, Pei Yuying whispered:
"Cousin Ning, please be careful with my third sister Pei Yuying. She is a double-faced person.
She always appears to be a dignified and elegant lady in front of everyone.
If I hadn't accidentally seen her pouring a cup of boiling water on a maid's face,
Otherwise, I would still be kept in the dark by her gentle image!"
Yan Ning smiled and said, "Okay, thank you for your reminder. I will pay attention to it.
By the way, Xue Ning, who is the lady next to Pei Yuying?"
Pei Xuening said: "She is Pei Yuying's cousin, her uncle's daughter, named Yao Jingjing.
The Yao family is not well-known in Hong Kong's upper class circles.
So Pei Yuying usually takes Yao Jingjing to various gatherings."
Yan Ning nodded in understanding.
After a while, the waiter started serving the dishes.
The two were attracted by the four dishes on the table. They stopped chatting and started to concentrate on eating.
Yan Ning picked up a piece of spicy boiled pork slices with chopsticks and put it in the bowl, then put it into his mouth.
The spicy and numbing aroma blossomed on his taste buds, and Yan Ning took a mouthful of rice with satisfaction.
As expected, the spicy flavor is more to her liking.
