"Where on earth are we now?" Annie lowered her voice and asked in a low voice in lanli's ear.
Lanli glanced in the rearview mirror. The driver was concentrating on driving. "It should be the peninsula hotel on the Bund." Just after the car chase, lanli noticed the Huangpu River outside the window, and the Bund scene was also very familiar. If not wrong, it should be the Bund Peninsula Hotel in Mordor. When they came to promote "gravity" last year, they held a news conference here - but the real question is not "is his sense of direction trustworthy"?
Annie let out a long breath. "So you know where we are? That's great. "
Nolan lowered his voice and whispered, "why do we have to whisper?"
Annie cast a glance. "I don't know. I just felt a little nervous. You know, first there was an accident at the airport, and then all the staff were lost. We are now trapped in a van. Then this is my first time to come to this city. At the same time, I can't understand any Chinese. In Hollywood movies, That means we should be nervous. "
"Ah Nolan suddenly realized.
In fact, Annie and Nolan didn't mean to make fun of each other. They just tried to use this method to ease their tension, but the content of the dialogue had an indescribable joy, and the corner of lanli's mouth rose.
Indeed, where are they now?
At this time, all the vehicles taken by the staff have been thrown away. In the chase of fans, they suddenly fall into the "helpless" situation. If the driver really wants to kidnap, or engage in criminal activities, the three of them are completely unprepared and have a high probability of success. So, do they really need "rescue"?
The main reason is that everything I experienced tonight is too incredible. It seems that I can't exaggerate my imagination, so I can't help opening my brain hole.
Lanli looked at the scene through the rearview mirror. They had just entered the VIP parking passage of the hotel. The driver's car had prepared the pass and passed the identity check of the security personnel at the door; And then the "foreign vehicles" are all intercepted, and so on. Isn't the parking garage the best place for kidnapping or criminal activities?
But at least this one is not.
Although it's an underground parking lot, it's spacious and bright in the field of vision. The brightly lit Beige visual effect makes people completely forget that it's early in the morning. The orderly top luxury cars line up in front of us, and the uniform Rolls Royce shows the inside story. At the front of the elevator, there are four staff members in white uniforms and white hats standing solemnly, The upright and clean posture shows the details of VIP etiquette in a very good place, and the clothing that has not changed for nearly a century has become a scenic spot of the hotel.
If Langley remembers correctly, the current leader of the Peninsula Group is from Britain.
All aspects of the details reflect the nobility and elegance. The rich heritage makes the air calm and steady. For investors, the classic culture, which is too conservative and traditional, and even does not want to make progress, has just become one of the most impressive important symbols of Peninsula Hotel, especially in the era of increasingly fierce competition, Many hotel groups have begun to keep pace with the times to catch up with the tide, while peninsula hotel still adheres to some traditions, even stubborn to some unreasonable, which also makes them win the hearts of countless old-fashioned British aristocrats.
For example, the Queen's designated hotel is peninsula.
Just an underground parking lot, you can feel the unique calm and elegance. Along with Annie and Nolan's emotions, they are also elites who have seen countless scenes, and they can be perceived to be different only from the atmosphere.
It's only seven months since we last came to Mordor to publicize, but the standard treatment of lanli has been promoted several steps. The suite of peninsula hotel is expensive. If it's the highest level of peninsula suite, which is equivalent to the presidential suite, then the price of one night can be as high as 125000 RMB - this still does not include the surcharge.
Now it's up to the level of Suites arranged by the organizer for the group.
The driver safely parked the car at the elevator entrance, a staff member took the initiative to go forward, politely opened the door, and made an invitation gesture with a smile, "good evening, welcome to the Bund Peninsula Hotel."
"Well, Langley didn't get lost this time." Annie smiles at Lan Li, and then Annie, who is sitting on the outside, leaves the car first.
"Good evening, Ms. Hathaway."
"Good evening, Mr. Nolan."
"Good evening, Mr. hall."
When all three of them got out of the car, lanli explained with a smile, "because of some special reasons, our staff fell behind. When they arrive later, please let them know that the driver has seriously exceeded the speed limit for the sake of safety. I have made a guarantee that the relevant fine will be borne by me. Please make sure that this matter is conveyed in place. Besides, he deserves an extra reward. "
At present, the staff member didn't ask too much about the background, but listened carefully. After Lan Li finished his presentation, he immediately understood the meaning of "tip" and speculated about Lan Li's attitude, "excuse me, 100 yuan, is that correct?"
"Make it ten times." Lan Li said simply, and then stepped forward.
The four staff members immediately bowed their heads and stepped out of the way. They respectfully and politely escorted Lan Li and his party into the elevator. Then two of them took the elevator together. The other two stayed outside the elevator door, waiting for the elevator door to close. Then they turned around and busied themselves.
"I'd like to formally welcome you to the peninsula hotel on the Bund of Mordor. I'm Edward and this is Charlie. We will be your private floor stewards. We will serve you wholeheartedly during your stay in Mordor." The self introduction of Xingyunliushui, with its unique high-level etiquette, makes people feel like a spring breeze.
Just 30 seconds ago, they were performing "speed of life and death" on the city streets; Now we are in the cool and warm space, experiencing the noble life of "Gosford Manor". This sharp contrast makes the atmosphere a little strange.
Annie looked left at Nolan and right at Lan Li, but she couldn't find a suitable way to express herself for a moment. "Where are we now in Mordor?"
Poof.
Nolan chuckled. "Are you serious? That's the best thing for you right now? "
"I don't know!" Annie shrugged. "To be honest, I don't know what I'd better do now. God, my only idea now is to take a bath and sleep for two hours. Two hours is enough."
"On the whole, we are on the west side of Mordor, located in the southwest of the central business district. From here, we can walk to the most ancient and modern intersection area of the city; If we need to take a bath, we can release the water later, and after about 30 minutes, we can enjoy a period of relaxation. " The Edward answered in a straight line, and the tone still didn't change much.
There is a sense of joy. Annie is just looking for words
Annie looked up at Nolan, then at Langley, and finally said, "yes, that's English humor."
Obviously, the housekeeper of the private floor comes out of the British training system, so speaking and doing things are just like that... British.
Between speaking, the elevator has reached its destination: the top floor.
"Welcome to the peninsula suite. May I introduce the equipment and layout of the suite to you?" Edward and Charlie were standing on the left and right sides, Edward's position slightly forward, smiling to introduce the guests, while Charlie was slightly behind to ensure that the details would not go wrong.
It's a peninsula suite!
This also means that the salary of lanli has reached the top level when he came to Mordor for promotion this time, so the future improvement space is in the details of experience, for example, lanli uses the whole suite alone; For another example, the suite grade arranged by the entourage of lanli; For example, many details of customization after lanli's stay, together with lanli's living habits, can be further content.
By the way, Edward is British and Charlie is Chinese. Obviously, the public relations team has worked hard on the details.
However, even now, such treatment is rare. Even Anne and Nolan's eyes were slightly surprised - before, in Hong Kong and Taipei, including London and Paris, the treatment did not reach such a level, such a subtle difference can be seen in the Chinese market's pursuit of blue rite, even above the imagination.
The decoration and furnishings of the whole suite are more close to the Victorian style, retro and luxurious, traditional and generous. From wallpaper to carpet to window lattice and chandelier, every detail shows the elegant style. The simplest detail is: the restaurant on the left side can be seen from the sight, and all the tableware on the table are pure silver tableware.
In terms of horizontal comparison, let alone lanli or Matthew's family, even Andre's family will not use pure silver tableware in their daily diet. First, it is too expensive, second, the etiquette is too cumbersome, third, the maintenance is very troublesome. Only when entertaining guests - and must be important guests, the combination of pure silver tableware and Chinese porcelain will be put into use.
Such a style and atmosphere is really easy to breed a sense of oppression, just like entering a palace, the movements of hands and feet and even the breathing rhythm will become more restrained.
So, Annie and Nolan didn't speak. They both turned their eyes to lanli.
Langley could sense the curiosity and heat in their eyes. He couldn't help laughing and said to Edward, "you can introduce some environment to Annie and Chris, but I'm a little tired. Just ask Charlie to lead me to the bedroom."
