"By the way, John, our CRR club is going to be officially opened. When shall we hold a reception?" Old David suddenly smiled and said to Li Feng.
"Really, I almost forgot that our headquarters in Rockefeller Century Center have been renovated?" Li Feng replied with a suddenly realized look on his face.
"Rockefeller Century Center?"
After hearing Li Feng's question, del Roosevelt did not answer. Instead, he looked at Li Feng and old David with a bad smile and whispered, which immediately made them speechless.
No, the original good Rockefeller Center has now become the Rockefeller Century Center. It has changed from a family to a joint name of two. The taste in old David's heart is not the taste, but it's done and there's no way.
As for the CRR club, it is also the result of the cooperation of the three. Both families have clubs named after their own families. Roosevelt club and Rockefeller Foundation are all charitable clubs.
As for why it is called CRR, C stands for the first letter of the century, while RR stands for the first letters of the surnames of Rockefeller and Roosevelt. The three families jointly set up a club to strengthen ties on the one hand, and naturally expand their influence on the other.
The headquarters of the club is in the main building of Rockefeller Century Center - strange building, that is, the so-called general electric building, which is now the building where the general electric headquarters is located. Three separate floors are listed on the top floor of the building, with a total area of more than 3000 square meters under luxurious decoration.
……
Similarly, CRR Club branches in Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Tokyo, Seoul, Xiangjiang, magic capital, Beijing and other places are choosing places. The rest is not clear, but the location of the mainland of China has basically been determined.
The magic capital was selected among the old buildings and Western-style buildings on the Bund.
Yes, during Li Feng's trip to the magic capital, in addition to investing in Lujiazui, Yang Lou on the Bund is also a natural place for investment. Now, four Bund buildings, No. 2, No. 22, No. 27 and No. 33 on the Bund, have been taken back by Li Feng's real estate company in China.
Among them, on the 2nd Bund, Li Feng has found his next home. After the comprehensive renovation, it will become the location of Waldorf hotel in magic capital. On the 22nd, it will become the headquarters of CRR club. In addition to the club, the rest can be rented naturally.
The remaining two buildings, No. 27, will become the headquarters of CSCB bank in China. As for No. 33, it can be rented or used by its own group.
The CRR branch of Huaxia capital is naturally placed in a large quadrangle. Li Feng bought so many quadrangles and took out a top large quadrangle covering an area of more than 3000 square meters and belonging to Houhai as the CRR capital club.
Of course, these need to be paid for. The Property Department of Li Feng's real estate group collects rent. It is the so-called "fat water does not flow to outsiders' fields, and there is no mistake in making money and business.
……
"Are the club managers in place?" Li Feng asked angrily.
"Haha... Don't worry, some elites have been transferred from our two clubs and foundations, plus the people from your skyline real estate and your private consulting team. A top elite management team has been formed, and the rest can be recruited. They have been completed and basically trained."
Perhaps seeing the embarrassment on the faces of Li Feng and old David, the big man of the Roosevelt family couldn't help laughing back.
Obviously, such a joke can make good friends happy for a while without affecting their friendship. After all, such scenes are rare, and even outsiders can't see them.
"Well, do you have any plans and when are you going to officially open?" Li Feng turned the topic to running the club and asked with a smile.
"It's planned to be on the 22nd. Now everything in our invitation letter is being made and invitations are being sent." Del smiled back again.
"OK, that's just right. There's about a week left. I'll go and have a look after it. I haven't been to New York for some time." Li Feng replied with a smile.
Just go to New York, Li Feng thought.
……
"John, I think you'd better move your headquarters to New York. New York is the center of the world, isn't it?"
"It's too cold in winter in New York. It's still sunny in California." Li Feng joked with a smile.
"California is an earthquake prone area. Fires are also high in summer. It's still safe in New York!" Derton joked.
"Uh..."
Hearing each other's words, Li Feng was speechless. Yes, California is really an earthquake prone area, and the fires in California every summer definitely belong to a high incidence period. In this regard, New York is safer.
"Ha ha..."
Li Feng's sudden collapse made del and old David burst into laughter.
"Hi... John, long time no see!"
While Li Feng was chatting with his close friends, a call came, which interrupted Li Feng's rest and joke with the helmsmen of the two families.
"Wow... Steven, long time no see!"
Li Feng turned to see that the visitors were black and white, a man and a woman, and they all knew each other. However, Steven was known in this life, and the black woman was known in a previous life.
The white man's name is Steven samp. He is now the president of the University of Southern California. Li Feng has met and dealt with him several times before. After all, he is a top figure in Los Angeles. It's normal to see him at a party occasionally.
The black woman on one side was later the famous American Secretary of State Rice. Of course, rice today is not the world-famous figure of later generations, but Li Feng recognized it at a glance. After all, the latter is so famous in the world in the future. When rice was Secretary of state in the previous generation, he was also popular in China. There are news of others everywhere on the Internet.
……
"John, I heard that you have just completed the SAT test and your grades are excellent. How about coming to our university? You can choose your major." Steven samp, the president of USC, joked with a smile.
"Steven, you're not right. Let John go directly to USC in front of me. It's not good. Hello, John. I'm Condoleezza Rice, the provost of Stanford. I welcome you on behalf of Stanford!"
Before Li Feng could reply, he did not expect that rice, who was on one side, put in a joke, which surprised Li Feng.
Although he heard a lot of Rice's news in his previous life, after all, he could see the appearance of the black woman from time to time at 30 minutes of the daily news, but Li Feng naturally didn't know much about his life. He only knew that he was the Secretary of state of the United States, that is, he was equivalent to the post of foreign minister in China.
Li Feng really didn't expect that rice was the provost of Stanford University at this time. To say, this position is not low. It is second only to the president in Meidi University.
"Hello, Ms. Rice. Nice to meet you, but I may disappoint you. I hesitated at several universities in Los Angeles before. It's not that the other universities are bad. It's mainly that several universities in Los Angeles are closest to home!" Li Feng shrugged, greeted him with a smile and responded.
"Ha ha... Les, you see, there's no way. John, I don't think you have to hesitate. You'd better come to our university of Southern University. If you choose a university in Los Angeles, it's natural to choose Southern University!" Steven samp responded with a laugh.
"Really, maybe UCLA doesn't agree!"
“…”
……
After a chat, Li Feng met a man of the moment again.
