Chapter 1874
Soon, Chen Yingshan, led by the female designer, arrived at Xiao Churan's office.
Xiao Churan also stood up and walked out from behind her desk to greet her, saying with a smile, "Ms. Chen, why did you come over so early?"
Chen Yingshan smiled and said, "President Xiao, I came to confirm our construction cycle with you. Our Miss really wants to know how long it will actually take for the entire renovation to be ready for move-in."
Xiao Churan said with some difficulty, "Ms. Chen, our project is still in the communication stage. I don't know how many times we need to communicate before we can find a balance point, and I don't know how many versions of the design sketch it will take to satisfy that Ms. Zhan of yours, so I can't give you an exact time node yet."
As she spoke, Xiao Churan added, "However, I think this matter should be done in two steps. The first step is that we need to demolish the original renovation first. This speed will be relatively faster. I have a relatively good understanding of the house situation. I estimate that in the fastest case, all internal soft and hard furnishings can be demolished in one week."
"If we can finalize the design as soon as possible, the subsequent construction time will be easier to control."
Chen Yingshan then followed her words and asked, "President Xiao, if the design is finalized, then about how long is the time from the day the design is finalized to the end of construction?"
Xiao Churan said with some difficulty, "To be honest, Ms. Chen, I can't guarantee this to you right now, because we don't know how difficult the construction of the final design draft will be. If the construction difficulty is very high, then the construction cycle will definitely be longer."
"Moreover, I cannot determine what specific requirements Ms. Zhan has for the construction materials of this villa. I have done interior design for some clients before. Some clients will specify the use of a certain material from a certain country. For example, some people like natural marble imported from Italy. Then this kind of stone must be ordered at least half a year in advance so as not to delay the renovation. If imported furniture is used for soft furnishings, it is the same principle."
"Therefore, there are too many factors that can influence the construction time here. It is indeed impossible to give you a relatively accurate time immediately. For such a large villa, some people can finish the renovation within a year, and some need five years to finish it. The span is also very large."
When Chen Yingshan heard this, she smiled and said, "It seems that this renovation is indeed a very troublesome matter, and I see that you really need to seize the time to meet with our Miss, because I don't know exactly what requirements our Miss has. This must be discussed with her in person."
"Yes!" Xiao Churan also nodded in agreement and said, "I was just thinking about this matter. It would be best if I could meet with your Miss as soon as possible to understand her requirements in person, so that I can prepare the first version of the design sketch."
Chen Yingshan suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief in her heart.
She had originally been thinking about how she could naturally and without revealing anything talk to Xiao Churan about meeting the Miss.
Unexpectedly, after a few rounds of circular talk, Xiao Churan took the initiative to propose this requirement.
In this way, she could completely take advantage of the situation.
So, she hurriedly said, "Since that's the case, President Xiao, please wait a moment. I will call our Miss now to see what her schedule is."
Xiao Churan hurriedly said, "No problem!"
Chen Yingshan immediately took out her mobile phone and called Fei Kexin.
Fei Kexin was waiting for her news in the room. When the call came, it was quickly connected, and she asked with feigned indifference, "Shanshan, is something the matter?"
Chen Yingshan hurriedly said, "Miss, I'm at President Xiao's company. She said she wants to meet with you as soon as possible to talk about your design requirements so that she can produce the design sketch for you. When is it convenient for you?"
Fei Kexin said casually, "I happen to have no arrangements this morning. Why don't you bring President Xiao over now."
Chen Yingshan then said, "Alright, please wait a moment, I'll ask President Xiao."
After saying that, Chen Yingshan looked up at Xiao Churan and asked, "President Xiao, our Miss said she has time now. She is staying at the Bai Jinhangong Hotel, which is not far from here. If you have nothing else to do, we can go over now."
Xiao Churan said without hesitation, "I have no problem, let's go directly."
"OK!" Chen Yingshan smiled, "I happen to have driven here, why don't President Xiao take my car?"
"Good!" Xiao Churan agreed readily, then immediately picked up a notebook from the table, put her tablet into her bag, and left the company with Chen Yingshan.
Because Xiao Churan had already sought Ye Chen's opinion before taking this order, she didn't need to report everything to Ye Chen after taking it.
Especially meeting the client, which is a common occurrence in the renovation field. Sometimes you have to deal with the client from morning till night, which is completely reasonable, so Xiao Churan didn't think too much about it.
Chen Yingshan drove Xiao Churan to Bai Jinhangong, looking for various topics to chat with Xiao Churan along the way, while also constantly paying attention to her, observing whether she used her mobile phone to contact others or send text messages.
However, Xiao Churan herself was not a person who had to hold her mobile phone every day, and with Chen Yingshan chatting along the way, her mobile phone stayed in her bag and was not taken out from beginning to end.
This made Chen Yingshan feel much more at ease.
When the car arrived at Bai Jinhangong, Chen Yingshan took Xiao Churan to the presidential suite where Fei Kexin was staying.
This was Xiao Churan's first time meeting Fei Kexin.
Just at the first meeting, Xiao Churan was shocked by the powerful aura that naturally emanated from the other party.
Fei Kexin's appearance was naturally impeccable, but what surprised Xiao Churan even more was that there was an omnipresent sense of nobility about her.
This feeling seemed quite ridiculous to talk about, but when she was truly face-to-face with such a person, a thought would unconsciously sprout in her heart: this person's background must be very prominent.
Similarly, Fei Kexin also felt that Xiao Churan was very different from the female friends she usually interacted with.
Fei Kexin's daily social circle mostly consisted of top socialites. Everyone was similar in family background and education, so they had long had the unique atmosphere and feeling of a high circle. If you threw them into a crowd of tens of thousands, they could still accurately judge the taste of their own kind.
But she couldn't see the aura that a top elite class should have from Xiao Churan.
Moreover, Fei Kexin discovered that Xiao Churan was visibly nervous in front of her.
At this moment, Xiao Churan was indeed a bit nervous.
From the moment she knew that Fei Kexin had prepared fifty million for the renovation of that villa, she always felt that with her own ability and popularity, she shouldn't be handling such a large renovation project.
Although she eventually took the project, deep down, she always had a feeling that she was punching above her weight.
Seeing the financier now, she naturally felt uncontrollable nervousness.
Fei Kexin saw all her involuntary micro-expressions, but she very generously took the initiative to reach out her hand and said with a smile, "Hello, President Xiao, I've heard so much about you!"
