Chapter 346 You Never Know How Active They Are

Chapter 346 You Never Know How Active They Are
The last time I went to southern Yunnan, I was accompanied by sisters Nana and Xinyu, and when I went to Yanjing, Fang Minhui was also with me.

But this time when I went to Shanghai, I was alone, not even my assistant.

But the more this happens, the more I feel a sense of anticipation for the unknown.

There are some differences between business class and first class. The first class cabins I took the first two times were both independent compartments arranged in a 1-1-1 manner. They had a relatively enclosed private space, and the seat angle and leg support could be adjusted.

The business class seat that Shen Yuan took this time was arranged in a 2-2-2 configuration, with other passengers across an aisle. The seat comfort was also somewhat different from that of the first class.

Ji Ya said that domestic flights are mainly medium- and short-distance, and most of them are small passenger planes, so setting up first-class cabins is not cost-effective.

For example, this Airbus A320 does not have a first-class cabin.

However, the quality of the flight attendants was still acceptable. Not long after the plane took off, a flight attendant with a good figure squatted in front of Shen Yuan's seat and said in a warm tone and sincere eyes:
"Mr. Shen, I'm the flight attendant for this flight. If you need anything during the flight, you can tell me, or you can just press the service bell."

Shen Yuan waved his hand to indicate that it was not necessary, but he did not expect that the flight attendant had no intention of getting up after she said that, and even looked at him lovingly.

"Can you do anything you need?"

Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows. He didn't bring a woman today, so he just flirted with her.

"Of course not, but we will try our best to satisfy you."

The stewardess said with a smile.

It seems that he is an old hand and can pull. However, Shen Yuan has rich experience in pulling. He smiled and said, "Forget it. What I need is absolute satisfaction, not maximum satisfaction."

"Okay, Mr. Shen, if there's anything we can satisfy, you can call me anytime."

The flight attendant was not angry. She stood up from the ground, left a charming smile, and walked away slowly in her high heels.

However, less than 10 minutes later, the flight attendant came to Shen Yuan again. This time, she not only tickled Shen Yuan's palm, but also slipped a note into his hand.

Shen Yuan sneered, then opened it calmly. It turned out to be her WeChat signal.

With good looks and wealth, she will be the focus wherever she goes, not to mention a job like flight attendant that often comes into contact with wealthy people. She can easily tell the difference between the Audemars Piguet frosted gold watch and the branded clothes on Shen Yuan's hand.

It's a pity that her figure and appearance are not good enough, and she is so skilled in flirting with men that it is obvious that she is an experienced driver. Shen Yuan is not very interested in her.

Shen Yuan casually stuffed it into his pocket and planned to throw it away after getting off the plane.

"Sure enough, if you don't accumulate a certain amount of wealth, you will never know how proactive women are."

Shen Yuan shook his head, remembering that he accidentally opened QQ yesterday, and a bunch of friend requests popped up.

The reason was that Shen Yuan’s WeChat was set to privacy, and only by scanning the QR code could he be added. However, the sisters in charge of foreign affairs were too enthusiastic and were good at thinking of ways. I don’t know where they dug out Shen Yuan’s QQ.

And it spread everywhere, which made QQ their breakthrough point.

Unfortunately, Shen Yuan was very picky and didn't believe in photo scams at all, so their application was in vain.

Two hours later, the plane landed at Hongqiao Airport. The flight attendant came to Shen Yuan again and made a WeChat message gesture with both hands. Shen Yuan smiled and nodded, and then she left with satisfaction.

As he walked out of the plane door, a wave of heat hit him, and Shen Yuan instantly felt the temperature of the Magic City.

In fact, the highest temperature in Shanghai these two days was only 33 and 34 degrees, not as high as 37 and 38 in Star City. This feeling was mainly caused by the good cooling effect of the air conditioning on the plane.

I first picked up my luggage along the passage, and then walked into the VIP channel. The person sent by Sha Yongshan to pick me up had arrived. He was a middle-aged man wearing glasses and with a gentle manner.

"Hello, Mr. Shen. I'm the director of the Hemu Hospital's Magic City branch. My name is Geng Liang. Mr. Sha asked me to pick you up."

The man took two steps forward with a warm smile and helped Shen Yuan take the luggage.

"Hello, Dean Geng."

Shen Yuan nodded.

Geng Liang handed the luggage to the driver or assistant next to him, and then led Shen Yuan out: "Mr. Shen, Mr. Sha has already booked Mr. Huang, and is waiting for you to come over for dinner."

"Mr. Huang?"

Shen Yuan thought the name was strange.

“It is a private kitchen restaurant located on Tianping Road. It can be said to be the ceiling of private kitchen cuisine in Shanghai.”

Geng Liang explained with a smile: "This private kitchen only accepts two tables of guests every day, so it is difficult to make a reservation. It takes at least one month in advance, or even two months. The main reason is that Mr. Sha is quite familiar with the owner of their restaurant."

"Oh, I see."

Shen Yuan looked at the time on his watch. It was already 12 o'clock. He estimated that it would take another 1-2 hours to get there.

Geng Liang noticed this micro-movement, and then said: "It's about an hour and a half drive now. Director Sha specifically asked me to prepare some Shanghai-style snacks in the car. If you are hungry, you can eat some snacks to fill your stomach first."

"it is good."

Shen Yuan nodded, then glanced at him. For someone in his 40s to be able to become the dean, his ability to read people's expressions was beyond doubt. He knew what he was thinking even though he only glanced at his watch.

The key is that he sold favors to Lao Sha. How could a person like Lao Sha care about these trivial matters?

Afterwards, Shen Yuan followed Geng Liang into the back seat of a black Maybach and after an hour and a half of driving, they finally arrived at the private restaurant called Mr. Huang.'

Unexpectedly, the restaurant is located in a small villa. The originally white exterior wall has been stained with heavy mottled color due to the erosion of history.

There are also exquisite green plants in the yard, which looks full of spring.

The waiter in a suit and bow tie had been waiting at the door for a long time. He smiled professionally and said, "Good evening, both of you. Please follow me upstairs."

Geng Liang nodded politely and introduced to Shen Yuan: "There are only two floors here, one floor above and one floor below. Each floor has a private room. Mr. Sha has booked the second floor."

Shen Yuan nodded, then walked into the private restaurant. It was decorated in a European retro style, with teak furniture and leather sofas. The ornaments were mostly made of silver, and the chandelier was also of a retro and stylish style.

All in all, it gives people an elegant and grand atmosphere.

Walking up the wooden ladder to the second floor, Sha Yongshan had already walked out of the private room and extended his hand to Shen Yuan with a smile: "Mr. Shen, you must have been tired after the journey."

He looks to be at least 50 years old, but he looks in good spirits and his voice is strong and powerful.

Shen Yuan exchanged a few pleasantries with him and then sat down in the box. After Geng Liang carefully asked Shen Yuan if he had any food taboos or preferences, he began to order food with the butler.

Sha Yongshan personally made tea for Shen Yuan and introduced, "Boss Shen, this private restaurant is first-class in Shanghai in terms of taste and style, especially the ingredients."

"The owner of the shop can find high-quality ingredients from all over the world, such as scallops from Northern Europe, sea urchins from Korea, and prawns from the United States. Although they are international ingredients, the owner has special logistics channels, so the ingredients are still very fresh."

Shen Yuan listened attentively, then said with a smile: "I just heard from Dean Geng that it is difficult to make a reservation here. If the owner of the restaurant was not a good friend of Director Sha, I would not have had this good fortune."

Sha Yongshan waved his hand with a warm smile: "It's nothing. If I go to Xingcheng someday, Mr. Shen will definitely take me out for a feast."

"I am very sure of that."

Shen Yuan agreed verbally, but thought to himself that he had only lived this kind of life for a few months and had never been to a private chef.

In the future, I can open my own private chef restaurant, which can only host 1-2 tables a day, and the reservations need to be made 1-2 months in advance.

Others have to wait so long, but Shen Yuan can come and eat whenever he wants.

The main course was not served quickly, but appetizers, appetizers, salads, and soups were all served one after another. When the three of them had almost finished eating, the main course arrived on the table at the right time.

The waiter half squatted down and whispered to the three people: "This is Thai-style sour and spicy grouper shark fin soup, which combines the deliciousness of grouper with the Thai Tom Yum Goong method."

"This is the belly of a bluefin tuna. The sauce on the side is made with our secret seasoning, which not only retains the freshness and quality of sashimi in Japanese cuisine, but also incorporates a unique seasoning."

It sounds quite high-end. Shen Yuan first picked up a piece of tuna and put it in his mouth. The first taste was that the meat was extremely delicate, as if silk was sliding gently across the tip of his tongue, so tender and smooth that it was amazing.

And because the belly is rich in fat, the moment you bite it, the fat spreads in your mouth, bringing a rich and sweet taste that is not too greasy and has a unique flavor.

"It's really good." Shen Yuan nodded. He seldom eats sashimi. Occasionally, he would eat Japanese food when dining with NPCs, but they basically ordered salmon sashimi and had never tried tuna sashimi.

Geng Liang smiled and said: "Bluefin tuna is known as the king of tuna and is the most valuable tuna species. In 19, a 278-pound bluefin tuna was sold in Japan for 2110 million yuan in our currency."

"Different parts have different tastes and prices. There are regular parts and middle parts. We eat the big belly part, which has the best taste but is also the most expensive."

"This time, Mr. Huang came here to enjoy the blessing of following Mr. Shen. Usually, Mr. Sha would not bring guests here."

Geng Liang said with a smile.

"I am not following you, I am also following Mr. Sha to enjoy the good life."

The rich and mellow salmon slid down his throat naturally. Shen Yuan felt so satisfied. Then he tried to eat a piece with the sauce. This thing was truly a delicacy. No wonder it was so expensive.

Then, Shen Yuan tried the grouper shark fin soup. The waiter said that it was cooked using Thai Tom Yum Goong method. However, when the sour and spicy taste blossomed on his taste buds, Shen Yuan was not very impressed.

"The texture is okay, but the taste is kind of weird and hard to describe."

Shen Yuan silently evaluated in his heart.

The next few dishes were a combination of Chinese and Western cuisine. The texture and freshness of the ingredients were top-notch, but the taste was the same as the grouper dish just now, which was weird.

"If it is my own private restaurant, I will definitely have all the dishes I like, and all these dishes that combine Chinese and Western cuisine will be eliminated."

In the following time, the three of them ate food, drank red wine, and chatted about family matters, and the atmosphere became more and more harmonious.

Sha Yongshan drank until his face turned red, and finally brought the topic to the point: "Director Shen, let Dean Geng take you to visit the branch tomorrow, and then go to the two branch areas in Shanghai for inspection. I have a lot of official business, so I won't accompany you this time."

Sure enough, this old fox started testing again. Just as Shen Yuan was about to wave his hand, Geng Liang stood up and said, "Director Sha, Director Shen, I'm going to the bathroom."

Having such a subordinate can really save a lot of worries. Shen Yuan watched his back as he left the box, then waved his hand and said, "I'll just go to the branch office and take a look around, I won't go to the hospital."

Sha Yongshan persuaded, "How can that be possible? It's a rare opportunity to come to the Magic City, so we must investigate it."

"That's really not necessary, Mr. Sha. I came here mainly to have fun and to visit you, my big brother."

"Oh okay."

Sha Yongshan didn't quite understand the situation. According to the information provided by Mr. Zhu, Shen Yuan intended to participate in the management.

If that is the case, Shen Yuan will definitely inspect the company and the campus carefully and attentively.

But looking at his attitude, it seems like he's really just here for fun?

This time, Lao Sha was not testing me for no reason.

Ever since Zhu Lei expressed his desire to retire, he has been expressing his desire for Sha Yongshan to take over his position.

In terms of seniority, shareholding and ability, Sha Yongshan should also think that he should be the successor.

But who knew that Shen Yuan would suddenly appear and acquire 15% of the shares.

Although Lao Sha holds 23% of the shares and is the second largest shareholder of Hemu, since Shen Yuan can acquire 15% with the resources in his hands, he may be able to acquire the rest of the shares.

If he intends to participate in management, it is hard to say who will succeed Zhu Lei after his retirement.

During the last shareholders' meeting, Sha Yongshan made a brief test, but it was just a test and there was no way to confirm that was Shen Yuan's idea.

Besides, Shen Yuan was able to become the third largest shareholder of Hemu at such a young age, so he might have seen through his clumsy temptation.

This time, Sha Yongshan took the initiative to invite Shen Yuan to the Magic City in order to confirm Shen Yuan’s true thoughts and then take countermeasures.

After Shen Yuan agreed to come to Shanghai, Sha Yongshan felt that he had guessed 50% right. As long as Shen Yuan planned to conduct an in-depth inspection of the Shanghai branch and the two campuses, he would make up the remaining 50%.

But Shen Yuanlai did come, but judging from his attitude, it seemed as if he didn't come.

"Boss Sha, I don't like being bound, nor do I like managing a company."

Shen Yuan didn't like beating around the bush, so he just came straight to the point. He came here not only to throw a smoke bomb for Lao Zhu, but also to confront Lao Sha.

He didn't want to be used by Lao Zhu, nor did he want to be misunderstood by Lao Sha.

If Zhu Qingrou hadn't accidentally betrayed his father last time, Shen Yuan wouldn't have known the real purpose of this old silver coin, Zhu.

In the current Hemu Medical Group, Zhu Lei is the absolute big brother and the current person in power of the group, followed by Sha Yongshan and Shen Yuan.

From Zhu Lei's position, the fiercer the fight between his two deputies, the more beneficial it will be to him.

He can play the role of a good guy, giving advice to this and talking to that.

The two deputies also need the support of Big Brother in this struggle.

Therefore, while consolidating his position in disguise, the two deputies did not have enough energy to covet Lao Zhu's position.

It is very common to play checks and balances, but what makes Shen Yuan unhappy is that you not only play checks and balances, but also play the trick of sneaking around.

Not only did he paint for himself, he also painted for Lao Sha, and secretly helped his son to take the position.

Shen Yuan is not the type of person who can be manipulated by others, so he accepted the invitation and came to the Magic City.

Of course, what Shen Yuan said was "I don't like managing a company", not "I can't manage a company", which also left himself a way out.

It also sends a signal that if you make me unhappy, I don't mind arguing with you.

When Sha Yongshan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then said, "Director Shen is young and promising. If he doesn't participate in management, it would be a waste of his abilities."

Shen Yuan did not respond, but took a sip of wine and said slowly: "If I am not mistaken, Mr. Zhu should have promised you succession."

After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Sha Yongshan to reply and continued, "I was invited to his house last time, and he said something similar. However, he also has a son who is studying for an MBA abroad. He will graduate next year and will work at the Hemu Medical Group."

This time Shen Yuan still left some blank, letting Sha Yongshan figure it out for himself. As long as he was not a fool, he would definitely be able to figure out Lao Zhu's intention.

However, even though this superior was in a state of turmoil, his expression did not change much. He was silent for a while, then smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Shen, for sharing."

This kind of person wouldn't express his opinion so quickly. Shen Yuan smiled back and clinked glasses with him.

This is all I can say. When Lao Zhu’s son starts working at Hemu next year, Lao Sha will know the truth.

Not long after, Geng Liang returned to the box. The business had been discussed, and the three of them began to chat about family matters. Sha Yongshan also mentioned his son who was studying at Yenching University.

"This bastard is so worrying. It's only been less than a week since school started, and he's already going back to the Magic City. I heard he's doing it for a girl."

Sha Yongshan shook his head in dismay: "What kind of love is this? It's nothing like what we had back then."

Shen Yuan smiled and said, "Which university in Yanjing?"

"National People's Congress."

Shen Yuan said "Oh", remembering that Zhou Peiwei and Luo Bingying were also in the National People's Congress. Zhou Peiwei said that she would arrive at the high-speed rail station at 5 o'clock this afternoon and asked him to pick her up. She should be on the way now.

He looked at the time on his watch. It was almost 3 o'clock.

Sha Yongshan asked, "Did Mr. Shen have an appointment with someone else? We've almost finished eating and talking, so why not just stop here today? If it's convenient in the evening, we can have a simple meal at your house, and let my disappointing son ask you for advice."

Shen Yuan waved his hand: "How can you say I'm asking for advice? It's fine for us to exchange ideas. But I have an appointment tonight, and I didn't get enough rest on the plane. I want to go to the hotel and take a nap first."

"Of course, I won't keep you here. I'll ask Dean Geng to bring you to the branch tomorrow. We'll meet again then."

Sha Yongshan stood up and shook hands with Shen Yuan. "If you don't mind, you can use the car and driver that picked you up today. He can be at your disposal during your stay in Shanghai. This driver has been with me for many years and is a very steady driver."

"Okay, Mr. Sha, I'll be honored to refuse then."
