Chapter 48 - 48 47 President Tang Keep Pretending
Chapter 48: Chapter 47 President Tang, Keep Pretending! Chapter 48: Chapter 47 President Tang, Keep Pretending! “Knock, knock, knock—”
“Come in!”
The door of the private room was slowly pushed open.
Gao Mengting walked in gracefully, “Mr. Tang, sorry to keep you waiting.”
“Miss Gao, please have a seat,” Tang Song stood up and said, “I just arrived not long ago, the dishes have not even been fully served yet.”
“Thank you.” Gao Mengting smiled and sat down.
Li Yongming surveyed the environment inside the room, clicking his tongue in admiration, “Just for a lunch, you are really generous.”
The minimum charge for a private room at Juhuide was 1200 yuan, and it was clear Tang Song had chosen this place targeting Gao Mengting.
Unfortunately, this guy didn’t know that his idol wasn’t someone who enjoyed showing off or appreciated wasteful extravagance.
During college, quite a few wealthy suitors were eliminated for this very reason.
Tang Song didn’t bother with this noticeable bag and passed the iPad for ordering, “I have ordered some signature dishes, see if there’s anything else you’d like to try.”
Gao Mengting took it from him, glanced briefly, and smiled, “This is already a lot, we can’t possibly finish all these.”
“How is the matter about the rent going?”
“Quite smoothly I guess, I can defer it by a few months at least, just until I’ve dealt with the goods in my warehouse then I can make up for it,” Gao Mengting put her bag on the chair next to her, leaned back, and looked upwards at the dazzling chandelier on the ceiling.
“That’s good, the most difficult times have passed.”
From the first day he met her, he felt she was in a tense, tired state.
Seeing her finally relaxed made Tang Song happy for her.
Li Yongming, watching the two chatting and laughing, raised his eyebrows.
He couldn’t help but interject, “Today, a leader from the property management was just treating a major client. It’s because of this distinguished guest being present that Mengting’s issue was resolved so smoothly.”
When he said “distinguished guest,” he raised his voice a bit, “Yunli Hotel you hear—”
“Yongming!”
Li Yongming still wanted to continue, but was interrupted by Gao Mengting’s stern voice.
Seeing the look in his idol’s eyes, Li Yongming gave an embarrassed smile, forcibly explaining, “I just wanted Mr. Tang to broaden his horizons.”
Gao Mengting pursed her full lips, truly disappointed with her old classmate.
It had always been like this during university; now it’s been three years since graduation, and his emotional resilience and capabilities had still not improved much.
The key point was he still wouldn’t take advice.
Just then, a waiter came in carrying dishes and served the remaining dishes.
Tang Song gestured to Gao Mengting to start, “Let’s talk while eating.”
“Sure, to be honest, I’m quite hungry, haven’t really eaten much since last night.”
“I heard this place’s Sichuan-style tripe is exceptional, try some.”
“The texture is really nice, tender yet firm, delicious!”
The two casually chatted for a few moments, and the atmosphere gradually became cheerful and harmonious.
Gao Mengting stood up, took the teapot, and took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Tang Song.
Sitting on the side, Li Yongming was stunned, his expression sour.
Gao Mengting mused for a moment, then said, “Mr. Tang, why did you suddenly decide to start an e-commerce business in clothing? Can you share your thoughts, even if we can’t collaborate, I could still offer some advice.”
She wasn’t someone who couldn’t appreciate good intentions, seeing people had always been her skill.
Tang Song paid for a car directly, supported her business today by driving them to Juhuide, even specifically booked a private room and ordered so many signature dishes.
To go to such lengths showed at least he had sincerity, patience, and confidence.
Now that she felt a weight off her chest, she didn’t mind listening to him talk about starting the business, whether it worked out or not, at least the attitude had to be right.
Tang Song chose his words carefully, “The company I’m currently working for is engaged in clothing channel trade, which is the main reason I chose this industry.”
“Oh? Would it be possible to know which company it is?”
“Jinxiu Commerce.”
Gao Mengting exclaimed, “That is a leading name in Yan City’s clothing trade, I’ve had contact with your company’s agents before.”
Tang Song nodded slightly, then proceeded to introduce his advantages in terms of suppliers and data on goods sources.
Gao Mengting, listening quietly, her eyes grew brighter.
Couldn’t help remarking, “My initial sources were all found on platforms like 1688, Love Sale, PDD, contacting one by one, testing each item, it was not easy to get the distribution channels right. Since I couldn’t get competitive prices for genuine products, I mainly dealt with withdrawn stock.”
Having discussed the supply chain, Gao Mengting had adjusted her mindset.
It was clear that Tang Song had put in the effort, he wasn’t joking around.
Next, the two talked about platform choices, remittance cycles, after-sales, and strategies for starting up.
When Tang Song mentioned “one million” again, “Cloud Stream Building offices,” and issued an invitation for cooperation,
Gao Mengting hadn’t had the chance to speak yet.
Li Yongming couldn’t sit still any longer, let out a few chuckles, and asked eagerly, “May I boldly ask which floor and which unit your Cloud Stream Building office is on?”
“30th floor, units 3001 and 3002, a total of 200 square meters.”
Li Yongming excitedly slapped the table, his eyes shining, “Buddy, could you check your facts before you brag?
When you mentioned preparing a million in funds just now, I still let it slide.
But the 30th floor of Cloud Stream Building is reserved by the real estate company for their own office use, never rented out to others!
You better not deny it, I am a real estate agent with AJ Real Estate, currently also managing the rental business for Cloud Stream Building, I am very familiar with it.”
“I never said it was rented.” Tang Song frowned and said to Gao Mengting, “The office is my own property, there’s no rent pressure.”
“This…” Gao Mengting was stunned, didn’t quite catch on.
Li Yongming gave a thumbs up, “Goodness, it’s getting more and more exaggerated!
You might as well claim the entire Cloud Stream Building is yours, or go even further, say you are the president of Cloud Stream Real Estate.
In that case, I should address you as President Tang! Hehe, continue, President Tang!”
The room suddenly became quiet, the air tinged with a faint awkwardness.
Gao Mengting opened her mouth, wanting to say something.
She was naturally aware of Cloud Stream Building, developed by Cloud Stream Real Estate, like Baoyun Center, managed by the same team.
There were rarely situations where properties were sold externally.
At that moment, a “knock, knock, knock” at the door suddenly rang out.
A somewhat familiar voice came from the door, “President Tang, are you available now?”
What do you think?
