Chapter 1934 Steady Expansion
Chu Heng’s return journey was quite difficult.
They first took a flight from Bremen to Berlin. After waiting at the airport for two hours, they took an international flight to Istanbul, and then stayed there for one night before boarding the plane to Hong Kong Island.
The trip originally only took more than ten hours, but it took two days of hard work on the road to get there.
Noon at the end of November.
There was light rain falling in the sky.
Kai Tak Airport.
Exhausted physically and mentally, Chu Heng and Cen Hao pushed a luggage trolley containing several large suitcases out of the exit.
He came back very low-key this time and did not alert anyone else. He only informed Han Yunwen.
At this time, Han Yunwen was holding little Han Yu, who was less than three months old, eagerly waiting to be picked up at the exit. Apart from Han's father and Han's mother, the only person beside her was the servant Fang. Sister and four bodyguards.
As soon as Chu Heng came out, he spotted them and hurriedly walked over.
Han Yunwen also noticed him immediately, her face suddenly lit up, she lowered her head with a smile and said to her infant son: "Look, daddy is back, are you happy?"
"Pfft!" Han Yu didn't even look at Chu Heng. He rolled his dark eyes and looked curiously at the spacious and bright airport hall.
“Mr. Chu!”
“Hengzi!”
"Oh, Uncle Han, Aunt Han."
Chu Heng stepped forward at this time, greeted Mr. Han and his wife, then nodded to the bodyguards, then approached Han Yunwen and kissed her on the cheek. She spoke, then took Han Yu in her arms with a big grin, and said with a big smile: "Haha , I miss you daddy!”
Han Yu was only one month old when he left Hong Kong Island, and it had been two months since he left, and he had already completely forgotten about her. This guy with an unkempt beard and a strange smell immediately opened his mouth and started to cry.
“Wow wow wow~”
“What a waste, even your father doesn’t know you!” Chu Heng could only hand the child to Han Yunwen helplessly.
"How could he remember you after you've been gone for so long?" Han Yunwen rolled her eyes at him.
“Isn’t there nothing to delay?” Chu Heng smiled bitterly.
"Okay, okay, let's talk if we have something to say when we go home. Look at Hengzi and the others, they look like they have returned from an escape." Mother Han smiled and stepped forward, pulling Chu Heng, and asked the big guys to leave. Went to the airport lobby and took the bus back home.
Han Yu was young and had a lot of sleep. He started to feel sleepy after getting in the car. After a while, he fell into a daze and closed his eyes in his mother's arms.
Seeing that her son was asleep, Han Yunwen handed him to Sister Fang, and then she didn't dislike Chu Heng, who smelled of cigarettes and sweat. She leaned on his shoulder and whispered: "Why did it take so long this time?"
"Originally, I planned to come back at the beginning of the month. I came across a good project and thought it was a good opportunity, so I stayed a little longer." Chu Heng raised his hand and took her into his arms.
“What project?”
“Car.”
“This thing is quite expensive, isn’t it?”
“It’s expensive, but this It’s really profitable if the stuff is done well.”
...
The two of them were chatting with each other, and before they knew it, they returned to the mansion in the Mid-level Villa.
As soon as Fang got home, Chu Heng, who felt slimy all over his body, ran into the bathroom.
When he turned on the shower, warm water spurted out from the showerhead, covering him from head to toe. In an instant, he felt much lighter. Just as Chu Heng was lathering up his body, the bathroom door suddenly opened, and a naked Han Yunwen came in with bright eyes.
"Come, let me rub it for you."
"Girl, please...sit...hiss, automatically."
...
An hour later, playing in the water After finishing, Chu Heng's face was glowing and he helped Han Yunwen, who was almost exhausted, out of the bathroom and lay down on the bed to let her rest.
"You go to sleep, I'll go to the hotel."
"Well, come back and bring me a bowl of Tingzi porridge."
"I know."
Chu Heng gently covered him with a thin blanket, turned around and walked out, Han Yunwen Squinting at his tall back, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
A few moments.
Chu Heng came down from upstairs and after telling the driver to prepare the car, he called the hotel and told Duan Changjin that he would be there later, and then called the bodyguard leader He Yixing to go storage together. Shi Shi found the few boxes of gifts he had brought back, dug out some and took them with him, and rushed to the Mandarin Hotel by car.
More than ten minutes later, three Mercedes-Benz cars arrived at the hotel.
At this time, Changjin had already brought the hotel's new senior team to greet them downstairs. After Chu Heng got off the car, he chatted with them and handed out the gifts he had brought to everyone. Incredible.
The gift he brought was not expensive, just some walnut dolls made in Germany, but these were gifts from the emperor. If they are not preserved, they will have to rely on them to talk about feelings in the future, so they must be treasured.
“Thank you, Mr. Chu.”
“Wow, this doll is so beautiful.”
Then Chu Heng entered the hotel surrounded by this group of people.
Not long after.
Chu Heng, who had dispersed the others, came to his president's office with Duan Changjin.
“Stop talking nonsense and pick up the slack.” Chu Heng sat down on the boss’s chair that belonged to Duan Changjin, with his legs crossed leisurely and smoking a cigar. Asked: "How are the three hotels? Have they been renovated?"
"The three branches have been renovated half a month ago. After the renovation was completed, the branches in Causeway Bay and Yau Ma Tei have now been put into operation. Thanks to the previous vigorous publicity, the business of the two stores was very good when they opened. The current occupancy rate has stabilized at around 60%. The Tsim Sha Tsui branch is not. It will be opened on the same day." Duan Changjin smiled and poured him a cup of tea prepared in advance.
"That's good." Chu Heng nodded and asked again: "Do you have any plans for the next layout of the group?"
Duan Changjin's smile froze for a moment, and he carefully observed his expression and whispered He said: "It hasn't been determined yet, but we have a general direction."
"Tell me." The steady Chu Heng, who had long been accustomed to this guy, blew out smoke at him.
“The senior management of the group unanimously believes that the current market on Hong Kong Island is not suitable for expansion at the moment, so they plan to expand to the Southeast Asian market. The Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia are among the options, but they have not yet decided on the details. Which market should be developed first?”
“This decision is not a problem. Hong Kong Island is such a big place and there are four companies. The number of hotels is almost there. If there are more hotels, there will be overlapping areas." Chu Heng glanced at him approvingly, then thought about it and said, "As for the expansion targets, don't be too rigid. Let's investigate the market first. It’s not too late, but in short, you must open two more hotels for me next year. This is the bottom line, it can only be more, not less, do you understand?”
"Understood." Duan Changjin, who had always been cautious, breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He had been worried that Chu Heng would be too aggressive and expand borrowings, causing the group's debt ratio to rise and its ability to resist risks to plummet.
As for two hotels, with the current size of Cultural Hotel Group, it is not difficult and can withstand it.
And this is exactly what he wants.
Steady expansion.
