Chapter 59

The concept of private club originated from the rich class in Europe, and first prevailed in developed cities in China. Private club is the entertainment place for the rich, with annual dues of tens of thousands of millions. In Europe in the 17th century, the first membership club in the world was born in a coffee shop in Britain. When it developed to today's global club scene, the club has become the middle class The club's membership has evolved into a symbol and identity label of wealth.

Hongtian club, the most famous business club in Nanshi, is located on the top floor of Hongtian building in the center of Nanshi business district. It integrates business, fitness and social activities. It has luxurious restaurants, well-equipped conference rooms and fitness and leisure facilities integrated with the latest technology, From the best location on the 50th floor, members and guests can enjoy a panoramic view that no other place in Nanshi can match.

Of course, as the most famous private club in Nanshi, it's definitely not for ordinary people to come in. The entrance fee of hundreds of thousands is astronomical for ordinary people. In addition, they have to pay tens of thousands of yuan a month.

Most of the members here are business people, and they are mainly from emerging industries. At the same time, because they are close to the embassy area, they also attract a lot of embassy staff to participate. They have the reputation of "the richest man club". At present, there are more than 1200 members. It is precisely because of so many high-level members that the business characteristics of "Hongtian club" are also very obvious, and many members are very rich Even the company's board of directors are arranged here.

Since almost every member has a company background behind him, they seem to carry trade secrets in every move. In order to avoid unnecessary speculation and misunderstanding, entrepreneurs will arrange a lot of important private meetings and business exchanges in the club. What they think more about is the privacy of business. For example, if they meet with a company boss in an open hotel, the outside world may be confused They will guess whether the two companies intend to cooperate. If they meet with a vice president of a company, the outside world may guess whether he is going to dig people.

However, private clubs cut off the exposure channel of entrepreneurs' business life to a certain extent, making them feel safe and relaxed. In addition to keeping a safe distance from the outside world, these people are more concerned about seeking a sense of identity in a circle. In short, they prefer to live a life of "things come together in groups, people come together in groups", which also reflects their superiority "Hierarchy" and "identity".

Wang Bing parked the car downstairs of Hongtian club and helped Chen Jingyi open the door. It was very gentlemanly, but Chen Jingyi didn't appreciate it.

"Wait for me here!"

Then he entered the club on his own.

Wang Bing stood at the door of the building, looking at the magnificent building, imagining what kind of luxurious scene it was.

He has never been to a place like this. In fact, he doesn't know what's inside, but there are several people in straight suits at the door, and the floor is still covered with red carpet. It can be seen that the scale inside must be unprecedented.

Wang Bing couldn't help but want to go in and have a look. As a result, he was stopped by the guy in a suit when he just came to the door.

"Sorry, drivers and other people can't go in!"

Wang Bing was speechless, thinking, do I have a driver's face?

It is estimated that these people saw that they drove Chen Jingyi here just now.

"I'm not a driver!"

"You can't go in without a driver!" But it's sad to be stopped for the second time.

"Why?"

"According to the rules of the club, people in untidy clothes are not allowed to enter!"

"What are the rules?" Wang Bing is more speechless, he did not bare arms, how not to enter? Also, what is disheveled? Wang Bingming is wearing his new clothes, which he bought at a "high price". It's in the clothing store on the pedestrian street. The original price is more than 1000, but after a discount, it's more than 300. It's also called disheveled clothes?

Looking at the people who came out or went in from the club, Wang Bing found that men were wearing suits, while women were wearing long skirts or evening dresses. Everyone was very ceremonious.

Wang Bing wondered, is this necessary?

"I'll go in and have a look. I don't need a suit, do I?"

"I'm sorry, sir. Even if you wear a suit, you have to be our member to get in. Are you our member?"

"No!" Wang Bing shook his head, "do you want to apply for a membership card?"

"You really need to apply, but I'm afraid you don't meet our requirements. If you want to become a member of our club, you have to pay a membership fee of 500000 yuan, and then you have to have an asset of 100 million yuan. We have to verify this before you can become a member of our club!"

A hundred million assets?

I'll go. Where is this? The threshold to apply for a member is so high. Is this where people come?

"So now you see why you can't go in? If it's OK, please drive to the back parking lot. Thank you for your cooperation Although all the guests were polite, Wang Bing could still see his disdain for such a loser from their smiling faces.Yes, these people receive people with a fortune of over 100 million every day. It's normal for Wang Bing to dress so casually and be looked down upon as a driver.

Looking at the clothes that cost several hundred yuan after the discount, and the suits on the people who went in and out of the club, I think any suit would cost tens of thousands?

It's said that before Wang Bing spent hundreds of yuan on clothes, he always felt a kind of dull pain. You should know that the clothes he bought in the past were sold by local vendors, which cost dozens of yuan, sometimes more than ten yuan. It's the first time for him to buy hundreds of yuan clothes, but compared with the tens of thousands of Yuan suits in his family

Now he knows why he is regarded as a driver. It's good if he doesn't treat you as a beggar.

Chen Jingyi didn't know who she was going to meet. I'm afraid she couldn't get out for a while. Wang Bing was about to drive to the parking lot when he turned around and met an acquaintance, Shi Yandong.

"It's you!" Shi Yandong looks at Wang Bing coldly. It seems that he is in a good mood. After all, he just took that piece of Huanglong jade worth 400 million from Chen Zhengjun. He has made a lot of money. Can he not be happy?

Wang Bing is too lazy to have the same insight as this "Shifu" childe. He deliberately blocks his way when he wants to go.

"What a narrow road for the enemy!"

"A good dog is out of the way!" Wang Bing said coldly.

"A rough man is really a rough man. You can tell it when you open your mouth. What's the matter? Are you here, too? "

"What's your business?"

"It's none of my business. I'm just curious. What's your identity? Even want to learn from others to come to a private club? You're just a security guard. You don't even deserve to receive guests at the gate of the club. If you want to enter the club, you have to have a fortune of over 100 million at least. Do you? "

Wang Bing would like to say that he has it, as long as the emperor jade has it, but the problem is that he doesn't have it now. What's the use of saying it?

"No? No, you still want to go in? Wake up, this is not the place where people like you come from. All the people in it are from the upper class. You scum should stay with the scum! " He was extremely sarcastic to Wang Bing, and the people passing by, including those who received the guests, pointed at him.

Wang Bing's face was gloomy. He felt very bad. What he wanted to do now was to slap Shi Yandong.
