How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?-Chapter 288 - 142 The Only Presidential Suite in the Country_2

Gu Heng nodded and then dialed Fu Songyang...

A few minutes later, a middle-aged man in a suit quickly walked out from within the State Guesthouse...

After coming up to Gu Heng, he asked, "May I know if you are Mr. Gu Heng?"

"Yes, I am."

Gu Heng, who had been playing with his phone, looked up at the sound of his voice and gave a slight nod after glancing at him.

After confirming Gu Heng’s identity, the middle-aged man directly handed Gu Heng a small card stamped with "State Guesthouse Management Bureau": "Mr. Gu, this is the vehicle pass, valid until 10 pm tonight."

Gu Heng took the so-called pass, somewhat puzzled...

This middle-aged man was obviously some kind of manager...

Logically, since he had come out to meet him, why would he need a pass?

But considering the special nature of Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, Gu Heng said nothing more and turned to the security waiting nearby: "Can I go in now?"

The security nodded, "Sorry, just doing my job."

After saying that, he signaled for Gu Heng to be let through...

Gu Heng stepped on the accelerator, driving into this hotel and guesthouse that, although not the most luxurious in Hua Country, was definitely the most famous, with a roaring sound...

.....

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Fu and the others are waiting for you here."

After leading Gu Heng to a building, he took Gu Heng to the second floor and gently opened the door to a reception room, speaking softly to Gu Heng.

Gu Heng nodded and walked straight in.

As soon as he entered, he saw Fu Songyang and several young men and women chatting on the sofa.

Fu Songyang also saw Gu Heng and immediately stood up and said, "You finally arrived, kid."

Gu Heng shrugged helplessly: "I should have been here in a matter of minutes, but I was held up at the entrance by security asking me for a pass, and that delayed me for another ten minutes or so."

"That’s my fault, I completely forgot about it. It was only when you called that I remembered, and I hurriedly had Manager Du send you the pass."

Gu Heng had been curious all along, and now he couldn’t help asking, "I don’t quite understand, I get that external vehicles are forbidden inside, but why do you need to show a pass even when that Manager Du you mentioned was present?"

Fu Songyang spread his hands helplessly: "Just understand the special nature of the area.

Moreover, the managers and waitstaff of the guesthouse are hired externally on contracts; the hotel security is managed by the State Guesthouse Management Bureau, two separate systems. Most of the time when foreign guests are hosted, the security is manned by the armed police...

The kind with live ammunition.

To speak bluntly, working at the State Guesthouse, even though security might earn less pay, their status is higher than a manager’s; one is an external hire, while the other, though not a civil servant, is still within the system, there’s no comparison."

"That complicated?"

Gu Heng knew the State Guesthouse was a state-owned enterprise...

But he had not expected it to be so intricately managed.

"What else could it be? The State Guesthouse Management Bureau directly reports to the Foreign Ministry, it’s a serious bureau-level agency. It used to be completely closed to the public; even with money, you couldn’t get in. Now though it’s opened to the public, the usual hosting of foreign guests still happens here; it’s quite natural that there are a lot of rules."

As he spoke, he began to introduce: "This is the new member I’ve invited to join our HAC Club, Gu Heng."

As Fu Songyang introduced him, Gu Heng smiled and nodded to the others.

"This is Jiang Xin, general manager of Hua Country Rare Earth, a central enterprise top shot, chairman of Pan-Asia Environmental Protection Group, and this guy’s private car collection is no less than Lu Yuan’s. If you get on good terms with Brother Xin, getting a few top-tier collectible cars from him is a piece of cake."

Yet another big shot...

Gu Heng finally realized why the upper circle was called a circle...

Once you know one big shot and are thoroughly brought into the circle, the people you meet are really at that top level...

"Brother Xin."

Aside from his identity, just the fact that a man of his age could be his brother was enough; Gu Heng felt no burden calling out "Brother Xin."

Jiang Xin seemed very easygoing, smiling and nodding at Gu Heng as a way of greeting.

"This is Jiang Wen, born in ’97, about your age. Didn’t you mention before that you were thinking of setting up a car team? You can learn from him; his car team members can already take part in official F3 level races."

Gu Heng’s eyes lit up upon hearing this...

Although he was planning to start a car team, he was really in the dark about it...

He knew nothing...

Lu Yuan was just toying with it, but now he’s finally met someone who is really into car teams.

Jiang Wen tilted his head up at Gu Heng: "Brother Yang says your driving skills match those of professional racers. How about finding time to have a race together sometime?"

"OK."

Hearing Jiang Wen’s cocky tone, Gu Heng didn’t mind and nodded with a smile.

"This is Lizi, I won’t introduce what she does; you can ask her yourself after you get to know her. But she’s a current Peking University student, and since you’re planning to take a course there, you might want to connect with her more in the future."

"Lizi?"

Hearing the name, Gu Heng couldn’t help but take a closer look at the girl in front of him...

The girl also smiled and nodded at Gu Heng.

She wasn’t particularly beautiful...

But there was nothing superfluous in her attire aside from being a bit sexy...

Even the manicures essential for women were absent...

A sense of simplicity and allure coexisted in the same person.

As for her identity...

Even if Fu Songyang had not mentioned it, Gu Heng could probably guess a bit...

After all, this is the capital, and who else could have an identity that Fu Songyang felt hesitant to introduce directly?
