Let you be a great man, not a scumbag

Lei Jun showed no sign of it on his face, but instead smiled and praised him.

“Amanyangyun…that’s the pinnacle of service in China. Plus, Swiss hotel management is world-class. Manager Wang will definitely make a name for himself after this advanced training.”

Wang Yuyan still maintained a smiling expression on the surface.

But how could she not see through Lei Jun's polite compliment?

The thought only flashed through her mind for a second or two, before she could even begin to feel disappointed.

The spine of the body immediately straightened.

Seeing Jiang Cheng give him a mischievous smile,

Wang Yuyan gave Jiang Cheng a quick, alluring glance.

She chose the path of climbing up the social ladder by relying on Jiang Cheng.

Such critical gazes were something she was bound to experience.

What she could do was neither cover up nor explain.

Instead, they should study hard to improve their abilities to match the requirements of the position.

The hand that was originally resting on her lap quietly reached under the table and precisely pressed down on Jiang Cheng's restless fingertips.

As he spoke, a barely perceptible tremor was hidden in his voice.

"Mr. Lei, you flatter me... I dare not claim to have accomplished so much, but I have indeed learned a lot that Aman does not have. I studied at the Lausanne Hotel Management School, which is a 'Service Excellence Leadership' executive program jointly run by them and MIT, with a focus on the sustainable design module."

Lei Jun raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Wang Yuyan again.

"I've heard of the courses from EHL and MIT. They're short, I think only six months, and are specifically designed for industry veterans like you to 'refresh your thinking.' They'd be perfect for you..."

After finishing his statement, Lei Jun got down to business.

First, they talked about Yunmi Technology: "You should pay close attention to Yunmi. It mainly makes smart home appliances for the whole house. It has a strong technological foundation and will start its IPO next year."

"Our rice ecosystem model involves us holding shares, helping them define the products, and sharing the supply chain. However, they manage the operations themselves, bearing the risks and rewards themselves. This 'empowerment + self-governance' ecosystem has relatively low risk..."

Lei Jun has always been good at using speeches to acquire users.

If you listen attentively to the speech, you'll definitely find many of his points quite reasonable.

Jiang Cheng appeared to be listening attentively to him, but in reality, he was focused on dealing with Wang Yuyan.

Unlike Jiang Cheng, Wang Yuyan was eager to absorb every word Lei Jun said in order to prepare for the upcoming negotiations.

But Jiang Cheng kept bothering her.

She gritted her teeth, half her mind trying to grasp the key words in Lei Jun's words, and the other half focused entirely on keeping her nerves on edge to defend against the "sneak attack" under the table.

A fine layer of sweat seeped from his forehead, and a blush crept onto his cheeks.

It was only through sheer willpower that he managed to keep from revealing any flaws.

As the dishes were served one after another, Lei Jun continued to talk at length about the advantages of Yunmi.

He stopped in surprise and stared straight at Wang Yuyan when she let out an uncontrollable "Ah..."

Seeing that Lei Jun and his female companion were looking at her with strange eyes, Wang Yuyan's cheeks, which were already restrained, instantly burned.

Her ears turned bright red, and she gripped her chopsticks tightly, completely flustered.

My heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to burst out of my chest.

This is... so embarrassing!

In contrast to her panic, Jiang Cheng remained calm and composed, showing no sign of being caught red-handed.

Nonsense, what kind of situation hasn't Brother Cheng seen? This little commotion is nothing!

Without pausing his hands, he turned his head, picked up the serving chopsticks, precisely picked up the fattest abalone from the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and offered it to Wang Yuyan's lips.

Her voice was so gentle it could melt your heart: "What's wrong? Did you burn yourself? Eat slowly, don't rush. Do you want me to blow on it for you?"

Wang Yuyan had never experienced anything like this before.

She felt that the car ride in the courtyard a couple of days ago was the most exciting thing that had ever happened to her.

But now it seems that I was too inexperienced in dealing with situations.

She was somewhat at a loss when she heard Jiang Cheng's words of help and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But when she heard the last sentence, she couldn't help but let out a soft moan.

Fortunately, the abalone that Jiang Cheng picked up was placed right near her mouth.

After taking a deep breath, Wang Yuyan used the moment to exhale to release the tension.

She gently took the abalone with her own chopsticks.

I took a small bite.

She glared at Jiang Cheng, her eyes brimming with tears.

With a hint of reproach and a touch of helplessness.

"Thank you, I did get burned. I was a little impatient..."

After saying that, he smiled at Lei Jun and said, "Sorry, Mr. Lei, I interrupted you..."

"It's alright, the food is just a bit too hot. Blow on it to cool it down, so you don't burn yourself..."

As soon as Lei Jun finished speaking, his gaze fell on Wang Yuyan, lingering for a few seconds before looking away.

His female companion witnessed the whole scene, and the smile on her lips faded slightly.

He rolled his eyes inwardly.

She truly lives up to her reputation as a vixen.

She used to think she was already quite alluring.

She used to think that big shots preferred girls like her who were dignified, poised, and quietly followed behind.

But seeing Wang Yuyan like this now, although she felt jealous, she had to admit that she seemed to have lost...

Even though I'm sitting next to a big shot, I'm just a decoration.

Laughter must be appropriate, words must be spoken tactfully, and even picking up food must be done with care, lest one make a mistake and offend someone.

But what about Wang Yuyan? She only got a little burned, yet Jiang Cheng personally served her food and gently coaxed her.

Even someone as powerful as Lei Jun would occasionally glance at her.

So, it seems that the big shots really prefer her type?

Yes, that must be it...

No wonder he can be so capable at such a young age.

Managing such a large hotel project.

Her ability to effortlessly captivate people is something I can't match.

She took a quiet breath and made a silent vow in her heart.

She wants to learn it when she gets back.

It's just making noises while eating, isn't it?

She can definitely learn it too.

After all, we've heard this kind of thing happen quite often.

Seeing that Jiang Cheng hadn't responded to anything after she had said so much.

Lei Jun then steered the conversation toward Wang Yuyan.

Lei Jun turned to Wang Yuyan, "Manager Wang, since you've worked at Aman and then had your brains 'replaced' at EHL, what do you think is the biggest deficiency in Dami's smart solutions when applied to high-end hotels?"

The question was very direct; Wang Yuyan felt that Jiang Cheng's attack on her had reached its final stage.

He coughed twice and then quickly blew on the soup in the bowl.

Taking a breath to catch his breath, he put down the spoon and placed one hand under the table to continue his maneuvering with Jiang Cheng.

He took the opportunity to speak.

“There are two things missing, Mr. Lei. The first is service anticipation. Most smart solutions nowadays are ‘humans adapting to the system’—guests have to learn to control the lights and air conditioning using an app or voice commands. But the service of top-tier hotels is ‘the system adapting to people,’ or even ‘anticipating people’.”

Seeing that Jiang Cheng had finally let him off the hook for the time being.

Wang Yuyan took another breath and continued speaking.

"For example, when I was at Aman, the butler knew where guests usually sat when drinking coffee and what newspapers they read. Future smart systems should be able to remember a guest's preferred room temperature, lighting color temperature, and morning wake-up music after just one stay, and automatically restore them for the next stay. This requires not a single device, but the deep learning capabilities of the entire system."

Wang Yuyan's words made sense.

Lei Jun leaned forward slightly, his fingers unconsciously tapping lightly on the table.

He pressed on, "What about the second floor?"

“The second layer is sustainable luxury,” Wang Yuyan continued. “This is my deepest feeling from the Lund University module.”

Luxury hotels in Northern Europe have long since made 'environmental protection' a subtle luxury—maintaining the most comfortable environment with minimal energy consumption. If Xiaomi truly wants to enter the international high-end hardware market, its energy consumption standards, material recyclability, and the long-term carbon footprint of its systems will all be rigorously audited. And this is precisely a blind spot for many domestic technology companies.

The private room was silent for a few seconds.

Lei Jun suddenly smiled and shook his head.

“Manager Wang, you hit the nail on the head with those two points. ‘Service predictability’ is a challenge our technical team is currently working on; ‘Sustainability’… to be honest, we haven’t given it much thought in the past. But you’re right, this is the only way to become stronger and bigger.”

Seeing that both of their attention was on Wang Yuyan, Jiang Cheng naturally withdrew his hand.
