“Oh, they came quite fast!” When Zhou Chao had just arrived at the 16th hole, he saw two golf carts approaching his location.
After a moment, the two golf carts stopped near Zhou Chao, and three or four people got out. Glancing around, Zhou Chao noticed that besides him and the caddy, there was no one else at the 16th hole. Soon, the group of people hurried over to Zhou Chao.
The man leading them appeared relatively young, around 36 years old according to Zhou Chao’s estimation. He wore glasses and exuded an air of competence.
“Boss?!” Tan Mingming walked up to Zhou Chao, calling out with a hint of curiosity.
Zhou Chao swung the golf club with force, sending the golf ball towards the distant hole. He watched as the golf ball soared through the sky, landed on the grass, and rolled towards the hole. The ball eventually came to a stop less than two meters from the hole. It was only then that Zhou Chao shifted his gaze to the man standing beside him.
“You must be Mr. Tan Mingming?”
“Yes, sir!” Tan Mingming’s firm response pleased Zhou Chao. At least in Zhou Chao’s initial impression, Tan Mingming seemed to be a capable individual.
“Tell me about the club’s situation,” Zhou Chao said as he walked toward the golf ball he had just hit. Tan Mingming quickly followed.
“Mr. Zhou, the club covers an area of 6,400 mu (approximately 4.27 square kilometers) in total. We currently have two 18-hole international standard championship golf courses and one 9-hole floodlit golf course. In addition, we provide dedicated accommodations at the White House Hotel for our members.
Apart from this, we have 50 sets of world-champion apartments, 138 luxury villas, a world-class life science and health center, a 20,000-square-meter high-tech green ecological base, and an 18-tee golf practice range.
Currently, we have approximately 400 senior members and nearly a thousand regular members. The club’s overall annual revenue is around 30 million.”
“Alright. How many years have you been in charge of the golf club?”
Zhou Chao had reached the golf ball, made a few gestures, and softly tapped it into the hole.
“I’ve been here for 10 years, Mr. Zhou.”
“Well, you will continue to manage it in the future. 1 hope you won’t disappoint me.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Zhou.” Tan Mingming’s initially anxious heart had now settled down. After all, as the saying goes, “With each new emperor, there’s a new set of officials.” If he didn’t meet Zhou Chao’s expectations, he might have to pack up and leave at any moment.
“Boss, it’s almost lunchtime. Would you like to try our estate’s cuisine?”
“It’s already almost 12 o’clock? Time flies. Alright, go ahead and arrange it.” Zhou Chao handed his golf club to a nearby caddy and headed towards the golf cart, taking the lead.
While they were driving, Tan Mingming provided Zhou Chao with a detailed explanation of the layout of the entire estate. Zhou Chao discovered that the two top-notch golf courses on the property were named “Golden Bear Golf Course” and “Nicklaus Golf Course.” In addition, the club’s hotel held a prestigious five-star rating, and the overall amenities of the estate were incredibly luxurious.
“Don’t worry, boss, I’ll make sure everything is well managed.”
“Alright, 1 won’t be playing in the afternoon. I’m heading back, and you don’t need to send me off. Everyone, return to your respective positions!” “Understood, boss!”
Zhou Chao nodded and stood up, walking towards Wen Shao.
“I’m going home; do you want to go back too?”
“Brother, you’re not playing in the afternoon?”
“I’m not playing anymore. If you want to, you can stay here!”
Wen Shao looked at Wenwen beside him, and her thoughts were clearly focused on Zhou Chao. Since Zhou Chao was leaving, there was no point in her staying here. Seeing the look in Wen Shao’s eyes, she shook her head.
“Alright, brother! Can you drop us back to the school?” Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao turned his gaze towards Tan Mingming, nodded, and then left the hotel with Wen Shao and Wenwen.
“How did you get here?”
“We came by car. There’s a direct shuttle here!”
“Oh.” In no time, the three of them arrived at the parking lot. When Wenwen saw Zhou Chao getting into a Rolls-Royce Phantom, her eyes filled with desire, but it quickly turned into innocent curiosity.
“Get in the car, why are you standing there!”
Wen Shao opened the rear door and got in, while Wenwen went around and was about to sit in the front passenger seat. However, she was reprimanded by Zhou Chao as soon as she opened the door.
“You go to the back as well!” Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Wenwen was momentarily stunned but quickly regained her composure, opened the rear door, and got in.
Zhou Chao didn’t say a word during the drive. Wen Shao and Wenwen continued to chat happily. After about half an hour, they reached Wen Shao’s school.
“Brother, we’ll go first!” After saying this, Wen Shao opened the car door and got out. On the other side, Wenwen was a bit slower.
After the two of them got out of the car, Zhou Chao drove in the direction of his home.
When he arrived home and was about to get out of the car, it was already around three in the afternoon. After parking the car, Zhou Chao noticed a note on the passenger seat that he hadn’t seen before.
He picked it up and realized it was a series of phone numbers. With a thought, he quickly understood what it meant.
“Ha, 1 didn’t expect this. How Interesting!” He took out his phone, took a picture of the note, and sent it off.
As soon as he entered the house, his phone rang..Explore the beginning of this data at n0v^lbin★
