Rebirth: My dad is too obedient

Chapter 415 No matter what
When Xie Bingran "appeared", the scene froze for a few seconds.

Wang Shi, Yu Liang and Zhou Kai looked up at the Asian Games champion in front of them and were so surprised that they were speechless for a moment.

Boss Wang Shi looked down at the championship poster in his hand, then looked up at the young man in a baseball cap in front of him, as if seeking confirmation...

Xie Bingran was pushed to the front by Xu Chen.

She still held the pen in her hand, feeling the stagnation and awkwardness in the air. She seemed to be at a loss as to what to do, so she turned around and looked at Xu Chen again.

Xu Chen then smiled and said:

"It's not that I forgot to sign the poster, it's that I haven't had time to sign it yet."

……

……

It was Wang Shi who reacted first.

He laughed twice, then looked up at Xu Chen meaningfully.

He immediately stretched out his hand towards Xie Bingran:

"I'm Wang Shi, it's such an honor to meet you..."

Xie Bingran's expression did not change. He still politely extended his hand and shook hands with Wang Shi.

Yu Liang had also turned around and said with a smile:

“I’m Yu Liang, what a surprise!
Welcome to Vanke! "

As he spoke, he extended his hand and shook hands with Xie Bingran.

Secretary Zhou Kai, standing by, didn't know what to do for a moment.

He was startled, but then he quickly took a step forward with a panicked look on his face, leaned forward and stretched out his hand:
"I am... Zhou Kai."

……

Wang Shi smiled and looked at Xu Chen and said:

"Mr. Xu! Every time I see you, there is a big surprise.

But I really didn’t expect that today’s surprise would be so big!”

Xu Chen pretended to be a little embarrassed and said with a smile:
"Shall we get the champion to sign first?"

Wang Shi finally reacted:

"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you for your help!"

The real estate tycoon actually showed some panic and restraint while speaking.

Wang Shi handed the poster over with both hands, and Xie Bingran took the pen and signed the three words "Xie Bingran" slowly...

Xu Chen looked down and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
Brother Bing has been signing autographs for many people recently, and he has already practiced it.

The three characters "Xie Bingran" look much better than before...

After Wang Shi signed the poster in his hand, Yu Liang also held the poster in both hands.

……

Zhou Kai suddenly remembered something and looked down at his phone.

He struggled and hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward and whispered:

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Yu, the foreign guests are still waiting..."

Wang Shi frowned and said in a low voice:
"Whatever it is, send it away first.

Can't you see we are hosting the most important guest?!"

Zhou Kai: “…”

Xu Chen turned his head and glanced at Xie Bingran with a wonderful expression.

……

Wang Shi smiled slightly awkwardly.

He said "sorry" and then whispered a few words to Yu Liang and Zhou Kai.

Boss Wang is still a rational businessman.

Although he was delighted to see the Asian Games champion, he did not neglect business matters.

Waiting there were overseas investment institutions that had flown in from California, and they had to be greeted seriously.

He still arranged for Yu Liang to receive them first, and then actually invited Xie Bingran and Xu Chen to "have a seat" in his conference room.

……

Wang Shi’s office is on the 19th floor, and Xu Chen just passed by.

Zhou Kai pushed open the door and saw a view of the sea.

The office is very large, it looks to be at least 100 square meters.

The layout is not luxurious or exaggerated, but simple, business-like and high-end.

Wang Shi looked happy and enthusiastic, and invited Xu Chen and Xie Bingran to sit on the sofa in the reception area.

Zhou Kai was quick-witted and had arranged for two female administrative colleagues to make tea here.

Wang Shi walked behind his desk and picked up a large photo frame.

"I specially asked Zhou Kai to print it out and frame it and put it on display!"

Xu Chen and Xie Bingran looked up and saw that the photo frame contained a Jeep poster of Wang Shi and Xie Bingran in the same frame.

Wang Shi: "Today I have the champion's autographed poster, I will also put it on my bookshelf!"

He sat down with a smile on his face, looking happy and proud...

The tea is ready.

Boss Wang was still very talkative and was chatting and laughing with Xu Chen and Xie Bingran.

But the topic they talked about was still the Asian Games and Xie Bingran, and everyone expressed their appreciation for Xie Bingran.

But the "appreciation" shown by Wang Shi was just right, without any inappropriateness or abruptness.

As a middle-aged male entrepreneur, his expression of "admiration" and "love" for an 18-year-old girl was somewhat confusing.

But Boss Wang's sincere and frank words dispelled the awkwardness and abruptness.

He expressed his appreciation for Xie Bingran very directly and accurately, out of his resonance with the "sportsmanship" and his admiration for the "Asian Games gold medal".

Xie Bingran listened quietly, smiling and nodding politely from time to time.

After all, Brother Bing has participated in many big events and met many important figures, so he did not seem restrained in his meeting with the founder of Vanke today.

Wang Shi said to Xu Chen again:

"I still want to thank Mr. Xu for giving me the opportunity to meet and get to know the Asian Games champion today."

Xu Chen smiled and said:
"Xie Bingran just happened to have a schedule...

It just so happened that I had some free time in the morning, so I arranged for her to transfer in Pengcheng, so she could come over on the way."

To say this is a perfect and natural way of saying it.

At the same time, he deliberately emphasized "transfer" and "free time in the morning" because he was afraid of being left behind for lunch.

Boss Wang Shi is a smart man and immediately understood the implication of Xu Chen's words.

In fact, he did plan to "entertain" the champion at noon, but now he has to give up.

Xu Chen picked up the handbag beside him:

"There is another gift for Mr. Wang and Mr. Yu..."

"Oh?" Wang Shi showed a hint of surprise.

As Xu Chen spoke, he took out the pair of "Burning Ice 001" that he had given to Wang Shi.

"Xie Bingran and I partnered up to create an independent sports brand called 'Ranbing Sports'.

This is our first product, ‘Ranbing 001’…”

As he was talking, the shoe box had already been opened.

Wang Shi instantly became interested and reached out to pick up a shoe.

He looked at it carefully and pinched the shoes with his hands:

"This midsole has a great texture!"

Wang Shi is a marathon runner and fitness enthusiast, so he seems to know something about shoes. He noticed the midsole material right away.

Xu Chen then explained:
“We spent a lot of effort to find the best midsole material in the country…

The foam technology of the midsole of the 'Burning Ice 001' is unique in the industry! "

Wang Shi bent the sole of the shoe and it bounced back quickly.

He nodded and said:

“I was wondering why I didn’t see Xie Bingran cooperating with some sports brands, it turns out that she has her own sports brand!

Being able to have a business layout so early on really shows a keen vision.”

He looked at Xu Chen and said with a smile:

"It looks like it was Mr. Xu's work."

Xu Chen smiled and explained: "I just happen to be familiar with Xie Bingran, and I have long been certain of her performance and commercial value...

So we planned the brand of 'Ranbing Sports' very early. Xie Bingran became well-known during the Asian Games, and the release of 'Ranbing 001' just happened to catch up with this wave of popularity."

Wang Shi sighed and nodded:

"The future is terrifying!"

He paused for a moment:

“I thought Mr. Xu only ran an advertising company, but I didn’t expect it to be involved in industry.

I only heard that Mr. Xu and Xie Bingran knew each other, but I didn’t expect that they were so close…”

Xu Chen smiled, picked up another shoe, and gave some introduction to the design of "Ranbing 001".

Including the fact that the shoe design comes from the British design studio "Pearl Cat", and the design idea is "celadon ice crack plus Dunhuang flame" and so on.

Wang Shi listened and nodded repeatedly.

Near the end, Xu Chen deliberately mentioned:
“Our shoes are light and flexible, very suitable for daily jogging or even marathons.

Supportive running shoes like Asics' Kayano and Saucony's Firebird are still relatively heavy.

For many amateur runners, the soles of professional marathon shoes are not cushioned enough, which is very harmful to the knees...

Our 'Burning Ice 001' not only maintains its lightweight, but also has excellent soft and elastic knee pad function.

Although we don’t focus on horse racing, there is nothing wrong with wearing them for horse racing.”

Wang Shi smiled and nodded.

They are all extremely smart people, so naturally they figured out some things instantly.

Wang Shi took the initiative to speak:

“It just so happens that there will be the Sanya Marathon in January.

We, Vanke, are the main sponsor, and General Manager Yu and I will both participate.

This pair of 'Burning Ice 001' can be used as combat boots!"

Seeing Wang Shi mention it on his own initiative, Xu Chen no longer hid his original intention and said with a smile:

“Thank you so much for your help, Mr. Wang!
To be honest, our 'Ranbing 001' has just been launched on the market.

After all, it is a startup brand and does not have much influence and popularity.

It is a great honor for Xie Bingran and I to have 'Ranbing 001' as your running boots.

Thank you very much too! ”

Wang Shi: “It is my honor to wear the shoes of the Asian Games champion!
Frankly speaking, I rarely endorse external products, mainly because I worry about product quality...

But after listening to what Mr. Xu said, I know you must have put a lot of effort and care into this pair of shoes!"

He thought about it for a moment:

“The Sanya Marathon is at the end of January.

If it is convenient, you can also send a few pairs of shoes over, and then we can arrange the materials for display.

We at Vanke are actually the organizer, so everything is easy to arrange!"

He paused, then smiled and said:
“Of course this is also a ‘win-win’ situation.

Having the brand of the Asian Games champion appear in the Sanya Marathon is also a blessing to the event! ”

Xu Chen: "Thank you so much, Mr. Wang!"

Wang Shi smiled brightly:

"Boss Xu brought the Asian Games champion here today...

No matter what you ask me to do today, I'm afraid I won't be able to refuse!"

He looked at Xie Bingran again and said with a smile:
"I wonder if I might have the honor of taking a photo with our champion?"

Xu Chen: "Of course."

……

Wang Shi himself is also a photography enthusiast and has a top-notch SLR camera in his office.

Zhou Kai and Xu Chen worked together to take a few photos of Wang Shi and Xie Bingran.

Among them, there is a special picture showing Xie Bingran giving "Ranbing 001" to Wang Shi.

This photo of "giving away shoes" is itself a good topic and communication material.

After the shooting was completed, Wang Shi took the initiative to speak:
"Zhou Kai, the photos can be sent to Mr. Xu.

I think Mr. Xu's comments can also be used as promotional material!"

Xu Chen felt emotional.

As expected of a very smart business tycoon, his "plans" had actually been seen through by others a long time ago.

……

Wang Shi smiled happily again:
"Our President Yu will probably be disappointed and sad..."

Xu Chen was stunned, not knowing what this meant.

Wang Shi smiled and said:
“Vanke is in need of a vice president to oversee the market and brand.

Mr. Yu discussed with me and wanted to invite Mr. Xu...

But at present, Mr. Xu still has the business of 'Ranbing Sports', and I am afraid he would look down on a marketing position in Vanke."

Xu Chen:

"I am flattered to be valued by President Wang and President Yu..."

He did not continue.

But not saying it is actually also a "polite refusal".

As for the job invitation from Vanke, Liu Wenqin and Zhou Kai had actually hinted at it privately before, and Xu Chen had also considered it a long time ago.

Mr. Xu, who has become a boss, naturally doesn't want to work for others.

Although Vanke is a first-tier real estate group in China, working for someone else still depends on the boss's mood.

Moreover, through the last "Rancho Santa Fe" project, we know that there are many constraints and struggles within Vanke.

Xu Chen didn't want to get involved.

He is not afraid of fighting, but he finds it troublesome and tiring...

……

Wang Shi remembered something and turned around to take two books from the bookshelf.

“I am very happy and honored today!
This is a humble book I just published this year...

If you don’t mind, I’ll give it to you two young friends!”

Xu Chen looked down and saw a photo of Wang Shi on the cover of the book.

The title of the book is "Road and Dream, My 20 Years with Vanke"...

Xu Chen quickly took it with both hands:

"It's such an honor! Thank you, Mr. Wang!"

Xie Bingran also bowed and took it politely.

Xu Chen opened the title page and the table of contents and took a look. The content was about Wang Shi and Vanke's entrepreneurial journey.

Xu Chen said seriously:
"I am flattered to be able to get a glimpse of the entrepreneurial secrets of the real estate godfather from the book..."

Wang Shi laughed out loud, obviously very happy with Xu Chen's "flattery".

No matter what level a person is at, he or she likes to hear good words. This is human nature.

"Flattery never wears out, no matter how many holes it has," this is also the truth that Xu Zhiquan once told Xu Chen.

Xu Chen turned to the title page again and said with a smile:

"Mr. Wang, can you please sign my name for me?"

Right in the middle.

Wang Shi was not shy about showing his happiness.

Xu Chen and Xie Bingran came over with books in hand...

At the same time, Secretary Zhou Kai held up the camera and took pictures.

……

After chatting for a while, Wang Shi looked at Xu Chen and said casually:
“‘Ranbing Sports’ is still in its infancy, right?

If you want to create a first- or second-tier sports brand now, the amount of capital required is actually quite large.

Current sportswear brands are almost following the same path as fast-moving consumer goods brands.

The cost of brand promotion alone is a huge amount..."

Xu Chen did not respond and waited for Wang Shi to continue.

Wang Shi smiled:
"Do you...have any need for financing?"
