Chapter 164: The Four Young Masters of the Magic City Gather
"Let's talk inside."
In front of the entrance to the Triumph Club, Chu Mo spoke casually, and the son of the wealthiest man immediately stepped aside, making a welcoming gesture.
A party of four, two men and two women, strolled towards the fifty-story club. Suddenly, Chu Mo turned his head toward the tall girl beside Zhang Dongdong and said,
"I remember you, you're Xu Shanshan, right?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Shanshan, who had been cautiously walking on the edge, showed a hint of surprise in her eyes. She nodded lightly and said cheerfully,
"Yes, Mr. Chu, it's rare for you to remember me. My last visit was quite presumptuous."
Chu Mo waved his hand, his expression gentle and devoid of any pretense.
"I was a poor host last time. Next time you and Mr. Zhang come over, I'll personally cook a couple of dishes for you."
The group entered the lobby amidst laughter and conversation when an attractively dressed woman in a rose cheongsam with a decent appearance immediately approached. She bowed to the group and said,
"Mr. Zhang, welcome to the Triumph Club. May I ask if these three are with Mr. Zhang?"
Hearing this, Zhang Dongdong, dressed in a casual suit, stepped forward, his tone turning serious, and said,
"These guests are all honored visitors of mine."
The woman in the cheongsam bowed deeply, and after straightening up, she then spoke with an apologetic face,
"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang, as a senior member of our club, according to the rules, you can only bring one guest for free to experience the services of the club."
Zhang Dongdong raised an eyebrow, his demeanor turning somewhat icy, his voice void of the casualness from before.
"Call your manager over, immediately."
The final word "immediately" carried a hint of coldness.
Naturally, the woman in the cheongsam did not dare to delay and bowed deep again, her face full of caution as she said,
"Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment." Explore more at empire
Once she had left, the recently frost-faced son of the tycoon immediately turned around, his tone slightly apologetic as he spoke to Chu Mo,
"Mr. Chu, I'm sorry. I don't often come to the Triumph Club. It was just last time a friend brought me over, and I casually became a senior member. Had I known, I would have gone straight for the supreme membership."
Chu Mo waved his hand, a smile on his face, speaking calmly,
"It was me who asked you to meet here, so it's only right that I should handle such a minor issue."
As his words fell, it took less than a minute before a middle-aged man in a suit was quickly making his way over.
He arrived in front of the group, bowed deeply, and said in a respectful tone,
"Mr. Zhang, your visit honors us, welcome, welcome."
Zhang Dongdong cut to the chase and said directly,
"Make it quick, upgrade me to the highest-level membership now. I want to bring a few friends inside. Any procedures can be done later when we go back, don't worry about the money."
The middle-aged man immediately smiled apologetically and then respectfully invited,
"Mr. Zhang jests, please, honored guests, come this way."
The group didn't want to waste time there and, accompanied by the middle-aged man, headed toward the elevator.
Chu Mo noticed the red carpet at the elevator and the club's friendly reminders on the wall,
"Members entering the club must not wear jeans, T-shirts, and travel shoes, and should set their mobile phones to vibrate or turn them off."
As the elevator doors opened, Chu Mo withdrew his gaze and realized everyone was waiting for him to enter first.
And just this small detail made the attending middle-aged manager's eyes flash with a gleam of appreciation.
Chu Mo, without any pretense, was the first to step into the elevator. His eyes sparkled for a moment, impressed by the luxurious interior of the private elevator alone. The walls were adorned with fine wood carvings and mirrors, elegant but not excessive, and in the light of the elevator, an invisible sense of style became subtly apparent.
In his mind, Chu Mo unconsciously compared it to the private elevator of the Tianxiangyuan Grand Hotel and found that the Triumph Club had indeed done a better job on some small details.
As the elevator slowly ascended, the middle-aged man, half-turned, said respectfully,
"Since the honored guests seem unfamiliar, this must be your first time at the Triumph. Let me give you a brief introduction.
Founded in October 1999, the Triumph Club is a joint venture between Hua Country Tianmei Group and an American international clubhouse management group. Since it opened, Triumph Club has consistently been the most famous business club in the city, integrating business, fitness, and social networking.
With luxurious dining rooms, fully equipped meeting rooms, and fitness and leisure facilities that incorporate the latest technology, we offer our members the best choices for socializing, entertaining, and relaxing...!"
The middle-aged man was going on, but Zhang Dongdong suddenly interrupted,
"You said the same thing last time I came, and it's the same old spiel this time. Can't you come up with something new?"
Amid the slight embarrassment of the middle-aged man, Chu Mo suddenly laughed lightly, sensing everyone's attention on him, he said unhurriedly,
"It's okay, no harm in hearing it again, please continue!"
Chu Mo chose the Triumph Club for the meeting, instead of his own Bafang International or the financial building, because he wanted to learn from others' strengths. He intended to create his own super club, so naturally, he observed and listened attentively along the way.
The middle-aged man already knew to give respect to the young man with the gold-rimmed glasses, as even the son of the richest man in Hua Country, Zhang Dongdong, treated him so seriously. He did not dare to neglect, so upon hearing Chu Mo's words, he immediately resumed speaking respectfully,
"The Triumph Club is known as 'Hua Country's Premier Wealthy Club', hosting a number of CEOs from Fortune 500 companies, and a considerable portion of the elite class."
"From the 50th floor's prime vantage point, members and guests can enjoy the city's most beautiful 360-degree panoramic views."
