Chapter 221: The Boss's Island Hotel

Hanging up the phone, Chen Jianhai lay back on his bed with his hands behind his head.

What should the hotel be called?

According to his taste,

he really wanted to name it something like "Fuguer Grand Hotel," "Golden Splendor Grand Hotel," "Awesome Grand Hotel," or "Comfort Grand Hotel."

Not for any special reason, just because these names sound grand, wealthy, and classy.

And they seem intimidating!

But, these names are more suitable for a favorite child, not so great for a second favorite.

"If I actually name the hotel something like this, my parents would probably come out of their graves to drag me down with them."

"Then it really would be a family reunion."

Sighing, Chen Jianhai stared at the ceiling, deep in thought...

In the following days,

Lin Suyang, along with the promotion department staff, kept unlocking mysterious powers,

learning to calculate auspicious dates through the internet, teaching, and live streaming.

But these online methods always felt a bit unreliable,

and the Taoist in the live stream would always play with the monkey on his shoulder while talking.

It looked anything but professional.

Helpless,

Xing Feilong decided to self-study the Yi Jing (Book of Changes) with great determination and wisdom,

pulled out an old calendar, and mumbled to himself every day like a fortune teller.

"Minister, according to my calculations, the 12th of this month is auspicious for beginnings and everything will go smoothly."

Xing Feilong, wearing his uniform, sat in an office chair like an old sage, muttering and calculating.

Lin Suyang glanced at the calendar,

"The 12th, isn't that Double 12?"

Seeing the suspicious look from the minister, Xing Feilong remained unfazed, saying:

"This is just a coincidence. Divination and feng shui are inherently mysterious; only by experiencing it deeply can one appreciate its wonders."

"It truly is, indescribably wonderful..."

An Bingfeng looked at the immersed Xing Feilong with horror, almost in tears,

"Minister, can I change seats? I don't want to sit next to him..."

...

While the Langai Hotel staff were fervently discussing auspicious dates,

on Xiaomajia Island, the islanders were having heated discussions.

Duo Luo Xue: "I think it should be called 'Island Hotel'!"

Jian Ku Fen Dou: "...The name is straightforward and easy to understand, but not grand enough."

Shui Fa Da Sui Wo De Chang Ming Deng: "Then call it 'Dog Boss Hotel'!"

Jian Ku Fen Dou: "Grand but not straightforward enough!"

An Feng 1988: "Then call it 'Dog Boss Island Hotel'!"

Jian Ku Fen Dou: "This name is great! It's straightforward, grand, and friendly, and easy to remember!"

#Relay

Relay, now voting for the island hotel name.

Relay requirement, those who agree with "Dog Boss Island Hotel," please relay accordingly.

...

As soon as this message was sent,

the group went crazy, flooding the screen with relay messages.

Seeing the screen full of "Dog Boss Island Hotel,"

Chen Jianhai regretted it deeply.

He thought the power of the masses was infinite and could come up with a good name that suited the local islanders,

but this group...

Darn it, enough said!

"Who would have thought, Hai Ge, you have quite a good reputation!" Xiaolang exclaimed, flipping through the chat history.

"Heh."

Chen Jianhai responded with a cold, indifferent smile.

"After looking for a long time, Lin Suyang's 'Yan Zhu Hotel' seems barely acceptable."

"But 'Yan Zhu Yan Zhu'... always sounds like fireworks and firecrackers..."

"Doesn't it attract the fire god?"

Maybe I should just call it 'Heart and Liver Hotel'!

Just as Chen Jianhai was feeling troubled, a phone call came in.

"Su Ge, any instructions?"

Su Jie's voice came through awkwardly, "Boss Chen, don't make fun of me. How could I dare to instruct you?"

"Director Yang from the Cultural Promotion Department wants to visit your hotel. Are you available?"

Chen Jianhai immediately perked up, "I'm available! When will they arrive?"

Su Jie replied, "I, Director Yang, and some members of the hotel association are setting off now. We should arrive in about an hour and a half."

Chen Jianhai said, "Okay, Su Ge, see you soon!"

Hanging up the phone, Chen Jianhai's eyes lit up.

According to Su Jie, this Director Yang was his benefactor!

Without Director Yang's recommendation and strong support, his hotel wouldn't have become the event hotel, and the development of Xiaomajia Island would have fallen through.

He had to give them a proper reception.

"Hai Ge, everyone in the group is asking for your opinion." Xiaolang reminded him.

"What opinion?"

Chen Jianhai opened the messages, only to see himself being tagged all over, asking if the hotel name was good.

Sighing helplessly, he typed:

"Thank you all for your wisdom,"

"My phone only has 99% battery left, it's going to shut down automatically, no more chatting."

...

Saturday,

Afternoon.

Stepping onto Xiaomajia Island for the second time, Yang Ruying looked at Su Jie and the other hotel staff following behind her, feeling a deep sense of disorientation.

The people standing next to her all had salaries many times higher than hers.

But just because of her proposal for a development project, she had attracted these big shots, all coming along to see the excitement.

Su Jie was understandable since he was the secretary-general of the association.

But the fact that assistants from the top hotels in Nanjiang City also came, supposedly to study and inspect, was a bit hard to fathom.

However, the woman standing next to Su Jie was said to be the assistant to the boss of Nanjiang Glory Hotel,

she was truly beautiful!

Yang Ruying looked at Liu Qinglu with envy.

Not only was she tall, fair-skinned, and beautiful, but also highly educated, well-paid, and highly competent.

Unlike herself, who struggled every day writing documents.

Since this visit was directly for the hotel inspection, the boat didn't dock at the island's pier but went straight to the hotel's private dock.

From a distance, Su Jie and the others could see the blue-roofed, white-walled hotel building.

Having seen the island hotel once, Yang Ruying's emotions were relatively stable.

But Su Jie and the others widened their eyes, expressions of astonishment on their faces.

"He actually built it!"

Standing behind the railing, the group stared with their mouths agape.

For years, no one in the association dared to touch Xiaomajia Island, but Chen Jianhai actually built it!

How is this possible...

Liu Qinglu clutched the railing tightly, her white teeth biting her lip, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Yang Ruying looked at the group's reactions with confusion,

As a normally two-point-one-line workaholic, though she had more business trips due to her work,

her vision was still limited, and she usually stayed in budget hotels,

so when she saw the island hotel, she was genuinely impressed by its beauty,

but these people...

Aren't they all in the hotel industry?

Isn't this a common sight for them?

Why such big reactions from each of them?
