In New York, Feng Yiping and Buchanan, and Merbuck, who had just arrived from Washington last night, had breakfast together. They were very happy in all aspects. The three of them were in a good mood, so they all had a good appetite.

Especially when Feng Yiping, who had been back from Central Park, ate bread and tortillas, and then got a piece of their signature red velvet cake after eating tortillas, Buchanan and Merbuck also had a big appetite.

“This is the most breakfast I have had at the hotel,” Buchanan said.

“This is the most cost-effective time for me to have breakfast in the hotel,” Merbuck said.

In fact, Merbuck also said that he ate more breakfast.

"The power of role models is infinite," they looked at Feng Yiping.

"I can still eat it again, but there are too few varieties here," Feng Yiping didn't mind making a meal with more people.

Now, China is not a major tourist country and the number of people traveling abroad is limited, so these hotels in the United States have not yet launched Chinese breakfasts. The breakfast they offer is either American or European.

As we all know, breakfasts in high-end star hotels in China have always been combined with Chinese and Western styles, and there are so many varieties.

“Yes, I miss our own breakfast in the hotel,” said Buchanan, who has been to China and Hong Kong, has stayed at the Provincial Capital and Hong Kong Holiday Inn.

"It's really that good?" Merbuck, who had never been there, could only imagine it.

"Of course, that's amazing Chinese food," Buchanan said. "Feng, when will we have our own hotel in the United States?"

“There are too few lands suitable for building hotels in a metropolis like New York.”

Feng Yiping has not thought about this problem, but unlike in China, the first- and second-tier cities in China are growing rapidly. On the one hand, they are expanding towards the surrounding area with great enthusiasm. On the other hand, it is easy to find a suitable place for large-scale demolition of urban villages.

Cities such as the United States and Europe that are worth opening hotels have long been developed very well, and the functional supporting facilities are very systematic. It is too difficult to find a place suitable for building a hotel.

"We can acquire it," Buchanan said.

Feng Yiping had never thought about it, but now it seems that it is not the best time. In 2008, haha, it should be a very suitable year - well, that should be a better year.

"I think this is good," Merbuck smiled at the luxuriously decorated restaurant. "If you buy this, think about it, how many leaders from all over the world will become our tenants?"

"Just for your confidence in me, it is not impossible when the right time in the future," Feng Yiping smiled.

When these two guys arranged for Buchanan to contact McDonald's, he asked if he wanted to acquire McDonald's. Now Merbuck proposes that he acquire the Waldorf Astoria Hotel!

You should know that the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, like the Statue of Liberty, is also one of the landmark buildings in New York.

Many politicians, such as many retired presidents in the United States, celebrities such as the Duke of Windsor in the United Kingdom, members of the royal family in the Middle East, Hollywood stars such as Monroe, and many rich people, have long private rooms on the 28th floor, and the part called the "tower"; because they are close to the United Nations, when the United Nations General Assembly, many national leaders, including the US president, chose to stay here...

Even some official US agencies, such as the official residence of the US ambassador to the United Nations, are fixed on the top floor of the 42nd floor of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.

The same is true for our country. Since 1974, our leaders have visited New York and have stayed here.

If I weren't very confident in Feng Yiping, how could Merbuck come up with such an idea while having breakfast?

However, at this time, Waldorf, New York, was a relatively luxurious thing for Feng Yiping. Later, when Anbang acquired it, the total price was nearly US$2 billion, which was about US$70,000 per square meter.

Even if the factors such as inflation are excluded, Hilton Group is interested in selling it now, so it will have to be around US$1.5 billion. With this US$1.5 billion, it will be enough to operate it in China and build 10 holiday hotels. In another ten years, it will make more than US$1.5 billion, which is definitely more than a good deal than buying this one.

Of course, the impact and publicity effect that buying this hotel can bring is really not easy to measure with money.

…………

Merbuck returned to Seattle from Chicago, then rushed to Washington, and then to New York again. Of course, it was not a joke. Feng Yiping planned to fly to Washington at 10:30. After breakfast, he hosted an executive meeting in the New York company.

"The theme of today's meeting is about collaboration," he said straight to the point. "Everyone knows that Coin Star and Redbox are now under the company's name,"

"Nextdoor website and these two businesses are actually complementary. Coin Star and redbox can provide better services for registered users of our website,"

“For example, for those registered users who have a lot of change at home, you can book an appointment with Coin Star to provide them with home-to-door redemption service, and this service is free,” he said.

“Redbox can also better and more conveniently meet registered users in need,”

"In turn, registered users of our website can also develop into Coin Star and Redbox users. If such high-quality internal resources cannot be used actively and effectively, it will be a huge waste."

"And some work, such as the expansion of Redbox, is imminent. Today, all three parties are here. We must formulate a complete action pointer. I will not interfere with the specific cooperation, and we will negotiate with you."

Cooperation between brothers and companies is not something that Feng Yiping can effectively execute by saying a word. It is unrealistic to help with it for free and must be charged at the discretion of charge.

Among them, there are listed companies and non-listed companies. Although Feng Yiping has always had high requirements for the company's financial management. Nextdoor, which has not been listed, has similar financial requirements to Coin Star, which has been listed, but has received different supervision.

As a listed company, every business of Coin Star is subject to public supervision, and its bid for providing services to sister units must be very reasonable.

It's low, nextdoor feels boring and doesn't want to do it, but it's high, if the public doesn't do it, they will definitely clamor for this cooperation. There is a possibility that listed companies illegally transfer interests to non-listed companies controlled by the same shareholder.

"I want to show my attitude to everyone here. I hope these three projects can become brothers and sisters who love each other and help each other. They must not fail to pursue profits, but they cannot only pursue profits."

"Murbuck, tell me the most urgent thing in front of me."

“DVD rental machines, McDonald’s have some inventory, given its good operation in Washington, we want to open a Redbox business in New York as soon as possible,” Merbuck said.

"I think this is the case. Let's draw up a general procedure for this matter first. There is no need to pursue perfection. You can refine and improve it in actual operation."

"I only have one requirement. I hope these three projects can improve each other and effectively promote each other. The most important thing is not to just discuss, but to start the work as soon as possible."

"Specific, Buchanan, Merbuck, you two will take everyone to negotiate and let me know if there is any result," he looked at his vibrating cell phone, "I have to rush to the airport, you guys continue,"

He waved to everyone and handed the bag to Owen, "Hey President Jin, are you still working overtime?"

The employees in the office area looked at him like this and knew that he was leaving, they felt relieved. The ultimate Oss was always by their side, and this was actually not as wonderful as they imagined.

In fact, Feng Yiping was really gentle in front of these employees. However, the shadow of a person's reputation, his reputation, and his achievements were originally a kind of pressure on these employees.

Feng Yiping saw some people watching him come out and sat in his seat very relaxedly. It was a bit funny. Once upon a time, wasn't it the same?

"Well," Jin Ling seemed to rub her nose very invisibly, "I'm going home. I heard that you're doing a good job in New York?"

"Of course, who am I? What can I do not go well," said Feng Yiping. "But, what's wrong with your voice? Have you caught a cold? It's a season change now, so be careful,"

"No, I don't sound like I have a cold, are you okay?"

They were very familiar with each other. Feng Yiping knew Jin Ling's tone and habit of speaking, and immediately felt something was wrong with her today.

"No, I have a cold, I have a severe cough, and my throat is not very comfortable."

Hearing Feng Yiping's words, Jin Ling, who was originally lying on the sofa, sat up and tried to make herself look normal.

"If it's really uncomfortable, how many days of rest are you going to take,"

"I know, when will you come back?"

"Haha, I must miss me! I've confirmed that, just recently, there's something I have to come out myself,"

"Oh, OK, then you can be busy,"

Listening to the beeping sound on the phone, Feng Yiping felt something even more wrong. Why didn’t she sarcastically say a few words today? She didn’t even fight back my teasing?

He immediately called Fang Yingzhi.

"You are so ping-up," Fang Yingzhi, outside the conference room, listened to the movement inside and said in a low voice.

"What's wrong with you? What happened to you?"

Fang Yingzhi briefly said the whole story, "Are you sure it's your ex-boyfriend? Also, why did she just cry in the conference room? Was that guy bullied her?"

"No," Fang Yingzhi shook her head. If someone bullies Jin Ling in her company, they would be too dereliction of duty. "It should be that after seeing Ma Wenchang, Mr. Jin remembered what happened before,"

"I understand. Please continue to tell me if this guy dares to harass him again, no, dare to appear in front of her again. No matter what background he has, don't worry about it. Greet me hard,"

If a tiger doesn't show his power, will he treat me as a sick cat? Those who dare to bully me! (To be continued.)
