Chapter 1007 Charity Dinner
In the end, the turnover on the first day of Jingdong Shopping Mall was frozen at 45.766 million Chinese coins.
Compared with Su Ning Yigou's results, it is indeed a bit incredible, but for Dong Qiang and others, it is undoubtedly a very exciting result.
Such achievements are enough to show that Jingdong's establishment is a hit.
What they have to do next is to continuously consolidate the reputation of good Jingdong in the minds of customers and strengthen Jingdong's current professionalism and service advantages.
This is a long process, but Dong Qiang and his entrepreneurial partners are confident.
Because they have taken the most critical step.
Regarding future development, Bai Ningyuan and Dong Qiang have talked about it many times and have a clear understanding.
After Jingdong was launched, Bai Ningyuan took the time to accompany Zhang Zilin to shoot the mv of "Welcome to Beijing".
Fortunately, the shooting of MV is not like recording songs, which requires a strong singing skills. After years of modeling career and a year of Miss World training, Zhang Zilin is no stranger to these shootings, so it took more than half a day to complete the shooting of MV.
After all this, the next highlight is the charity dinner held for Zhang Zilin.
Up to now, during his nearly one year of serving as Miss World, Zhang Zilin has traveled around the world to engage in charity and charity activities, and the charity funds raised have been nearly 32 million US dollars, setting a new record for Sister Shi to raise charity funds.
However, these donations come more from abroad, especially in developed countries such as Europe and the United States. There are still many people who are loyal to charity. Zhang Zilin's name is obviously quite recognized. As for her own motherland, she has not received much donation so far. For Zhang Zilin, who has received a Chinese family, it has to be said that this is a regret.
Although she has also raised some funds during her work these days, the results are not very ideal.
It can only be said that in the minds of ordinary Chinese people, there is still a gap in their understanding of charity.
After all, although the living standards of Chinese people are constantly improving now, they are still quite far from being rich, and their life pressure is very high. If you want to do charity, you will inevitably be a little more willing but not capable.
Of course, the Chinese people will never give generous gifts to these little good deeds of more than ten or twenty yuan.
In other words, in China, there is no lack of charity foundation and soil. What is lacking is the living standards of the people, and it has not reached a certain level.
Bai Ningyuan understood Zhang Zilin's thoughts, so he was willing to help her and push her to go higher and farther. So he had this charity dinner hosted by Lo International for a long time.
China is vast and rich, and there are also all kinds of rich people. Although China has always had a bad sense of businessmen, it is undeniable that people often want to do something different after reaching a certain level.
As early as August, the invitation to this charity dinner was distributed to everyone through various channels. Among the invited people, Hu Xi and many rich people on the Forbes Rich List, tycoons with good relationships with Bai Ningyuan, some senior officials and industry elites, and of course the most are stars in the entertainment industry.
Although in many cases, their status cannot be compared with those tycoons, rich and high-ranking officials, it is undeniable that because of their popularity, their appeal is still very good.
Or, this kind of dinner itself also has a bit of fame and fortune, which even Bai Ningyuan cannot avoid.
After all, in this world, there are never a variety of transactions hidden under the light.
The dinner was located in the St. Regis Garden at the Beijing International Club Hotel.
As the Jingcheng International Club Hotel, known as a super five-star hotel in Beijing, is a model among luxury hotels. The famous St. Regis Garden has an outdoor area of up to 19,685 square feet, which is enough to cope with the many guests invited by this charity dinner.
In fact, when Bai Ningyuan was choosing a location, he considered using the comprehensive hall of the Lo International Building. After all, the area there was definitely large enough. For Lo International, the organizer of this charity dinner, it was also a publicity, but it was later denied by him. After all, this is a high-standard charity cocktail party, and the participants basically have a considerable position in the country. If they are set up in the hotel, they will be very thoughtful in terms of facilities and services.
Since the morning, the hotel has been preparing for this dinner.
Although this dinner did not promote it much and was almost unfamous, the hotel was very clear that the people attending this dinner were all big names. The arrival of these people was also a kind of affirmation of the hotel itself, making them feel honored. As long as they entertained the dinner, it would be like a living advertisement in front of these big names. Such advertising opportunities were really impossible to find with lanterns.
Because of this, the hotel gave Lo International a considerable discount for the cost of this dinner.
In addition to this, in addition to the security team employed by Lo International, the hotel also specially sent security guards to coordinate the security work of the dinner. For this point, it is not only the Lo International, but also the hotel also understands the interests. After all, every guest here is not a simple person. Once something goes wrong here, it will definitely be a stain that cannot be settled in a short period of time for their hotel.
Not to mention anything else, at least their reputation is considered a waste in the upper-class circle.
Not only security, but also hotels also take great pains to make the raw materials for meals and dishes, all of which are top-notch raw materials from the world or in China.
Now there are curling blue smoke on the racks, and the grilled whole sheep with tempting meat aroma is constantly coming out under the roasting of carbon fire. They use the salt pond beach sheep that is less than one year old. In their previous life, they were selected as the state banquet-level product for the G20 summit to entertain foreign heads of state.
Other ingredients, such as beef, use juicy and tender, with a very low content of saturated fat in muscle fat, and almost only uses small tenderloin that is the essence on each beef.
For example, oils, whether they are Oni olive oil from the Apennines or first-class pressed peanut oil, are top-quality products that are expensive.
For example, chicken, all of which are imported from France, are freshly slaughtered on the same day and airlifted throughout the journey, and each one is of great value.
In addition, Iberian ham, pearl sturgeon caviar, white truffle and French foie gras can also be seen at this banquet, and each thing is worth as valuable as gold.
In addition to the famous domestic specialty fruits, fresh fruits airlifted from various places around the world are also many of them on the scene, ranging from a small piece of orange to a watermelon.
Take desserts for example. There are dozens of dessert chefs on site, responsible for desserts and cold drinks of different countries, including Chinese, French, Italian, etc.
As for the wine, there is no need to say much. The "grandvindechatourlatour" produced by Latour, among the five major wineries in Bordeaux, and the "beautiful appearance" of Obiang, are known for their expensiveness and quality when they appear on weekdays. Almost every one of them can arouse the screams of collectors and followers. However, at today's dinner, there were a lot of boxes, and a bottle was placed there, which made people feel a bit dazzling.
After this banquet, the cost of eating alone was enough to reach seven figures, which was a luxury. Even Bai Ningyuan had such a luxury for the first time.
There is no way, after all, the level of the visitor is here, and sometimes things to be ashamed must be done.
Regarding the specific process of this charity dinner, Bai Ningyuan and the advertising company responsible for hosting have communicated more than ten times, striving to excel in every detail, and even the rigorous treatment is no less than CCTV's Spring Festival Gala.
In the afternoon, Bai Ningyuan and Zhang Zilin got the customized clothes back. Because Zhang Zilin had a very good relationship with fashion master George Armani, whether it was Bai Ningyuan or Zhang Zilin's dress, they were naturally from Armani.
Although it is not a dress designed by a master, as a world-renowned fashion brand, Armani never disappoints people, especially clothes tailored like this. So after changing it, Bai Ningyuan immediately gave people a sense of a higher level.
If Bai Ningyuan before made people feel that it was just attractive, then at least when dressing up now, it would make people feel heroic at first sight. As for Zhang Zilin, even though Bai Ningyuan had seen every side of her, at this moment, he still felt as if he was amazed.
This is a light-colored long dress with bean paste red, with a pure black long-haired shawl on it, with some dense auspicious cloud patterns on it, which just matches the elements that are now popular in China. The tight fabric fully demonstrates her well-convex figure. A pair of bright golden high heels appear and look very tempting.
At this time, the temperature in the capital was only in single digits. Although she knew that her clothes were warm inside, this dress, which was completely opposite to the current season, still gave people a strong visual impact.
"Does it look good?" Seeing Bai Ningyuan's eyes a little straight, Zhang Zilin turned around lightly in front of him, and then said jokingly. After Bai Ningyuan came to his senses, he gently took his arm, looked at him deeply, and then carefully got into Bai Ningyuan's iconic RV and headed straight to the direction of the hotel.
Tonight is also a battle for her...
