Chapter 1822: If something is abnormal, there must be a demon
Fei Jianzhong accepted his granddaughter's suggestion and gave up the idea of going to Jin Ling immediately.
He knew very well that since it was difficult to make the Song Group and the consignor behind it loosen up before the auction, going to Jin Ling now had no practical significance.
He was old, and his actions and daily life were inconvenient. Going there now, besides causing trouble for Fei Kexin, wouldn't help at all.
It would be better to let Fei Kexin go to Jin Ling and try with all her might. If she really succeeded, she could bring the Rejuvenation Pill back to the United States directly. If she didn't succeed, he would go to Jin Ling to participate in the auction then.
In this way, there were at least two preparations, and the probability of success was greater.
Fei Kexin hung up her grandfather's phone, feeling great pressure deep in her heart.
She knew that her grandfather attached great importance to the Rejuvenation Pill. Although her grandfather didn't know what the medicinal effect of the Rejuvenation Pill was, judging from the evidence obtained from Lai Qinghua, the Rejuvenation Pill could at least extend her grandfather's life by several years.
And her grandfather was already over ninety this year. If he didn't seize this opportunity, his lifespan might only be a year or two or even shorter, but if he seized this opportunity, living to one hundred years old was definitely not a problem.
This meant that whether her grandfather could live to one hundred years old depended entirely on whether he could get the Rejuvenation Pill.
But what really gave Fei Kexin a headache was that she had no clues about the consignor of the Rejuvenation Pill. How to find him became the most thorny problem right now.
But even if she could solve this problem, there were bigger challenges waiting for her.
The other side didn't even take 50 billion US dollars seriously, so how could she make him take out a Rejuvenation Pill?
After thinking about it, she decided to put the breakthrough point on the parent company of Jiqing Hall, which was the Song Group.
Thus, she said to her assistant beside her: "Shanshan, these two days, I want you to help me find all the information about the Song Group. Find as much as you can, then list them into a book and give it to me."
The girl called Shanshan, named Chen Yingshan, was a personal assistant carefully cultivated by Fei Kexin.
Hearing Fei Kexin's order, she immediately said respectfully: "Alright, Miss!"
Fei Kexin asked her again: "Has our accommodation problem in Jin Ling been solved?"
Chen Yingshan replied: "Back to Miss, I have already booked the presidential suites and multiple luxury suites in the three best five-star hotels in the Jin Ling urban area. I will give you the hotel information later, and you can choose at will."
"Well done."
Fei Kexin praised indifferently and nodded with satisfaction.
This foolproof style of doing things was the concept she had always instilled in her subordinates.
For the Fei family, money didn't count as money unless it was calculated in units of 100 million US dollars.
So Fei Kexin didn't need to worry about where to stay when she went to Jin Ling to handle things. Her assistant had already booked all the rooms in three five-star hotels in Jin Ling and paid the room fees in advance.
Although the room fees of two hotels were destined to be wasted, this hundreds of thousands was not even a drop in the bucket for the Fei family.
Spending this extra hundreds of thousands was to avoid any emergencies if she only chose one hotel, even if the probability was only one percent, it had to be absolutely avoided.
This is Fei Kexin's style of doing things. Including this trip to China, although she only has a team of less than ten people, she still mobilized two identical private jets from home.
These two planes are both brand-new private jets converted from Boeing 787 passenger aircraft. The ex-factory price of each one was nearly 300 million USD, and the total cost after conversion was nearly 500 million USD.
Under normal circumstances, the maximum commercial payload of this aircraft is 330 people, but Fei Kexin's team of fewer than ten people insisted on occupying two of them.
She and her subordinates travel on one of them, while the other serves as a shadow plane, accompanying her throughout the entire journey.
Just like the flight method of the two Air Force One planes for the President of the United States, wherever the plane Fei Kexin is riding in goes, the other plane follows.
If the plane she is riding in encounters any problems and cannot fly, Fei Kexin and her party can directly board the other plane and continue their journey without any impact.
If this plane does not encounter any accidents during the days she is in China, the flight costs of over ten million for the other plane will all have been wasted.
However, Fei Kexin does not care at all.
What she pursues is solving problems with 100% certainty.
Everything else is unimportant.
Subsequently, her assistant handed a tablet computer to Fei Kexin and said, "Miss, this is the information on the three hotels. Please take a look."
Fei Kexin nodded, took the tablet, swiped through it, and whispered to herself, "Jin Ling International Hotel... Jin Ling Bai Jinhangong Hotel... Jin Ling Hilton Hotel..."
Fei Kexin frowned slightly and said, "They all look rather average."
Chen Yishan said helplessly, "Miss, the economic development of Jin Ling is slightly lagging behind; it cannot compare to China's few first-tier cities. The best local hotels are only five-star, and the only six-star hotel is still under construction and not yet finished."
Fei Kexin gave an expressionless 'hmm' and said, "Hmm... forget it, let's just do this. It doesn't matter which one we stay at tonight, but we may have to stay in Jin Ling for a long time this time, so after the plane lands, you should immediately communicate with these three hotels to see which hotel's rooms can be booked continuously for a month. I don't want to change places in the middle."
Chen Yishan nodded immediately and said, "Okay Miss, I understand!"
Half an hour later, two Boeing 787 passenger planes landed on two runways at Jin Ling Airport at almost the same time.
While arranging for her subordinates to confirm the status of the motorcade, Chen Yishan called the three hotels separately to ask if they could guarantee an extension of all rooms for one month.
Fei Kexin usually stays in the best presidential suite when traveling, but most hotels only have one or two presidential suites. If the presidential suite of any hotel has already been booked within the next month, it would probably be difficult to guarantee Fei Kexin's need for an extended stay.
After finishing the calls, Chen Yishan immediately reported to Fei Kexin, "Miss, I have asked about the situation at all three hotels. The rooms at the Jin Ling International Hotel are no problem and can be extended for a month. However, the presidential suite at the Hilton Hotel has a booking next Saturday. It is said that the client is an outsider marrying off a daughter in Jin Ling and wants to use the hotel's presidential suite as the bride's family home for the wedding. Their manager said they could help us coordinate with the client, but they cannot guarantee it will work. As for the Bai Jinhangong Hotel, they do not accept any bookings after fifteen days, so if we book now, we can only stay for fifteen days."
After hearing this, Fei Kexin made a decision without hesitation, "Then don't bother; let's just book the Jin Ling International Hotel."
"Okay Miss," Chen Yishan said hurriedly, "Then I will call the hotel right now."
Fei Kexin had just nodded in silent approval, but soon, a look of solemnity appeared on her handsome, pretty face.
She hurriedly stopped Chen Yishan and said, "Shanshan, wait a moment!"
Chen Yishan asked hurriedly, "Miss, do you have any other instructions?"
Fei Kexin furrowed her beautiful brows, narrowed her eyes, and asked back, "What kind of hotel would not accept bookings after 15 days? As far as I know, all hotels are eager to sell their rooms 10 years into the future. This is the first time I've heard of a hotel that doesn't allow bookings after 15 days."
"Yes," Chen Yishan nodded and said, "Their operating model is indeed a bit strange. I also asked them for the reason, but their front desk said it was clearly requested by those above, and they were just executing the orders of the hotel's high-level management."
Fei Kexin snorted coldly and said, "When things are abnormal, there must be a demon. What reason would make a hotel give up room sales? The Rejuvenation Pill auction is nineteen days away at most, and the specific address hasn't been announced yet. This Bai Jinhangong doesn't accept bookings after fifteen days; there must be something fishy about this."
Having said that, she made a decision without hesitation: "We're staying at Bai Jinhangong!"
