Chapter 11 Birthday and Car Selection
While the three of Bai Tang were celebrating his birthday around the table eating and drinking, there was already chaos on the other side of the city.
Shenmei Group Building.
A meeting was currently being held in the large conference room on the 33rd floor.
The chief was looking at the report in his hand while tapping the table. He then looked at the other dozen or so group executives in the conference room and said, "There's new activity at the super-large coal mine south of Tuwusu Town."
"Mr. Lu, is this the Hatuhai coal mine that is said to be worth 50 billion?" someone asked.
"Yes, it's the Hatuhai Coal Mine that we have been chasing for a long time. Let's be more serious next time. Xiao Zhang, let me introduce the situation to everyone."
The young secretary standing behind him responded, walked to the projector with the information, opened the PPT and started the introduction.
"The Hatuhai Coal Mine is located 18 kilometers south of Tuwusu Town, covering an area of nearly 48 square kilometers. The proven recoverable reserves are nearly 3 billion tons, and the planned production capacity is 28 million tons per year. The coverage is shallow and the coal seam is thick. After testing, it is low-sulfur and low-ash power raw coal, with a calorific value of 6,800 to 7,500 kcal."
After a short pause, Secretary Zhang continued, "The ownership of the mine belonged to the Menglong Group many years ago. When mining began, a policy was issued prohibiting foreign capital from owning mineral ownership and mining rights in Longguo. Half a year later, the Menglong Group transferred the mine. The transferee has not been identified, but it is certain that it was taken over by domestic capital."
"Our group has been pursuing this mine for a long time, but the early Maglong Group did not cooperate with state-owned enterprises. After Maglong Group sold the mine, we also pursued the transferee, but the transferee had no intention of selling again or financing cooperation. So the plan to acquire this mine was shelved."
"Just this morning, the registration information of the Hatuhai Coal Mine changed. It shows that it is personally owned by a lady named Bai Tang."
After listening to the introduction, President Lu cleared his throat and looked at the crowd below: "So, this mine is now changing hands again. Should our Shenmei Group pursue it again? If we can get this mine, the supply and demand of our Shenmei will be further improved."
After a discussion, everyone agreed that it was worth another try. After all, such a large reserve would be easy to mine and the coal quality was excellent, so it would be a high-quality asset.
Now that the demonstration was completed, General Manager Lu did not hesitate and quickly arranged it. After all, there were many large groups eyeing this mine, such as Sichuan Coal Group and Meng Coal Group, which had also pursued this mine.
Not to mention how many forces are taking action after hearing the news, Bai Tang’s birthday is almost over.
The three of them cleaned the table and put the cake on it. They lit the candles and waited for Bai Tang to make a wish and blow out the candles.
Bai Tang looked at the flickering candlelight in front of him, and it seemed as if his mother was smiling in the candlelight.
With a smile, Bai Tang clasped his hands together and closed his eyes slightly.
"I hope my mother can be happy in heaven."
Make a wish silently, open your eyes and blow out all the candles in one breath.
Cut the cake and share it. Bai Tang ate with a smile on his face, his face covered with cream.
The duo from the bank were slightly surprised to see Bai Tang still eating the cake.
My god, three people ate more than half of the ten dishes. The two of them were already so full that they only took two bites of cake each and couldn't eat any more.
Looking at Bai Tang again, it was already the second piece. How could such a thin person eat so much? The two of them were already full just watching.
When Bai Tang ate the third piece, Shi Mei held Bai Tang back and said, "Don't eat any more. Be careful not to get indigestion and feel uncomfortable in your stomach."
Bai Tang touched her belly and thought it was almost done. Looking at the cake that was more than half full, she thought for a while and decided to mobilize Li Wenwen and Shi Mei to deliver cakes to the neighbors.
In this way, the cake was finally eaten. When the neighbors were taking the cake, they wished Bai Tang a happy birthday. The naughty kid Xiao Le downstairs said that Sister Tang Tang was even prettier, and Bai Tang gave him two more pieces of cake. The naughty kid was so happy that his mouth was crooked with laughter.
After finally finishing everything, the three of them collapsed on the sofa together. They looked at each other and laughed.
After celebrating this birthday together, they found that Bai Tang was not the kind of person who put on airs, so Li Wenwen and Shi Mei were no longer so restrained. Once the two of them were no longer so restrained, Bai Tang felt much more comfortable. This way of getting along was what Bai Tang liked.
After the three of them were paralyzed for a while, Shi Mei suddenly spoke: "Tangtang, do you still want to look at cars and choose a car?"
Bai Tang sat up with a start and said, "Of course I'm watching. I'm just waiting for you two to give me some advice."
As he spoke, he took the computer and turned it on, searching for car websites. The three of them gathered together, staring at the computer screen and whispering to each other.
"Tangtang, do you have any preferences? For example, size, color, brand, etc." Shi Mei asked, staring at the computer.
"I don't know anything. As long as she looks good, a bigger one is better. Didn't Sister Wenwen say that bigger ones are safer?"
The three of them worked around the computer for more than an hour, and finally Shi Mei made the decision: "Given Tangtang's wealth, we won't look at low- to mid-range cars. As for sedans, the Panamera and Continental GT are both fine. A Rolls-Royce isn't suitable for you right now."
"For SUVs, there are many choices. For example, the top-end Land Cruiser, Lexus 570, Cayenne, Range Rover, Defender, and G-Class. The more expensive ones include Bentayga, Cullinan, and URUS."
Bai Tang hesitated for a long time while looking at the pictures he had chosen. But he also knew that it was unnecessary to buy too many cars, after all, he couldn't drive them all. After a long time, Bai Tang finally made up his mind and said, "For sedans, I want the Panamera. For SUVs, I want the Cayenne and the Cullinan."
Shi Mei looked at it and said yes. "But you may not be able to get the Cullinan in the short term."
"It doesn't matter, just make a reservation. It's not going to be opened right away. It will come sooner or later, just buy it back." Bai Tang said indifferently. Now she has a good idea of how much money she has, so spending like this is basically the same as not spending anything. She is also very relaxed.
"Any other requirements?" Li Wenwen continued to record.
"I like pink. White is fine too. If there is nothing like that, other colors are also acceptable."
"What about the budget? Which configuration and price range do you plan to buy for each unit?"
"We don't have a budget, Sister Wenwen, just buy the best one we can."
"Okay, I understand." After listening to Bai Tang's words, Li Wenwen had an idea in her mind.
Shi Mei took over the conversation and said, "We can't do that here. Let's send the vehicle order and requirements to Manager Guo at the Kyoto head office and have them handle it. It will be faster."
"That's true. You just need to hand in the order later. I'll contact Manager Guo from the head office and tell him." Bai Tang said suddenly. How could he forget Manager Guo from Kyoto? This person really has a low presence.
"As for the expenses, just let the head office transfer the money directly to my account."
"Okay, Tangtang. Now that we've agreed on it, Wenwen and I will go back to the bank to get busy." Shi Mei saw that it was getting late, so she stood up and said goodbye.
Shi Mei drank and didn't want to drive, so she took Li Wenwen's car back to the bank.
Just as Bai Tang sent the two downstairs and said goodbye to each other, a Mercedes-Benz stopped beside her. A blond foreigner came down and looked at Bai Tang respectfully and spoke fluent Mandarin: "Dear Miss Bai Tang. I am Henry from the United States. On behalf of Mr. Evan, I send you an American Express black card and wish you a happy birthday. Please sign for it."
Bai Tang was communicating, operating, and signing with Henry.
The two people in the bank looked at each other in bewilderment. Oh my god, what did I hear? American Express Black Card? Hurry back to the bank to inform the president, Tangtang, oh no, Miss Bai's status and treatment level will probably have to be improved.
