Hotel Cavalier.

"The said family wasn't influential and powerful enough to contain this negative news, it soon spread and eventually led to zero customer because well, I don't know if you believe in this paranormal stories but each has their faith, some customers said that they felt bad aura and saw a man's ghost in the lone elevator of the said hotel. With the existence of this paranormal things or not, the bad background of the said area left it a negative image. And it couldn't be simply taken away from the citizens."

Qi Anmei clenched her fists under the table after hearing everything and realizing that the ugly woman just humiliated her for making her stupid in front of everyone!

"Second, Location. Aside from the area's background that negates the location, Hotel Cavalier where Li Resort is supposed to be build is within the Capital. I will point two main reasons why the Location won't be good. One, it is within the Capital and two, in the old site. We all know that the standard of living in the Capital is quite high and of course, the tax payment would be reasonably high as well. With its bad background, how much would be the probability that the Li Resort will become the next big thing and the revenues it will earn could compete with the amount of tax payment? A business in the capital is no joke. It's very expensive, taking risk in business is normal but this kind of risk, as a risk taker that I have always been, I wouldn't even bet on it. Second, it's in the Old Site. Since the center of commerce in the Capital has been moved in the New Site a year ago, three months back, just behind Hotel Cavalier, a slaughter house was built and is in fact, stable in operation. Despite that it passer the cleanliness and hygiene standard, still, an animal slaughter house beside a resort where you're supposed to relax and rest? Just imagine that. Unless we could maybe persuade the owner of the slaughter house to move somewhere else and buy the area. But its another waste of funds when the location is already specified. It maybe no longer our job but more expenses means that the company will also spend more money for another area, I'll remind again, business is no joke in the capital, it also includes properties and lands. They're very expensive. Hotel Cavalier with bad background even cost much, how much more of a slaughter house that earns big."

"And lastly, Cost and Inclusivity. Isn't the target of this project in the first place, the middle class? With the amount of funds the company has already exerted starting from the purchasing of the area and the future expenses I approximated for the building, additionally, the tax payment, ten years, that's right, even ten years are not enough for the company to earn back its investment. Maybe we could rather opt out from being inclusive to being exclusive only for the rich and powerful in order to higher the prices and so the profit and gains but, the very rich and powerful would rather get on their private plane bound to Hawaii, Maldives or Bali to spend their vacation. With the reasons I enumerated above, I suggest a new research project proposal." Fan Xifeng ended her discussion and the conference room is extra silent.

Supervisor Gu broke the silence. "What you enumerated above is enlightening. Your suggestion for a new research project is also accepted but Miss Jing, I must inform you that the final presentation in the panel, with all the Department Heads to observe is only a month away. So take this consideration and inform me about your team's decision soon."

"Noted Supervisor Gu." Fan Xifeng nodded. When she raised her head, she accidentally met the eyes of the woman in front of her, the Team A leader, Cheuk Rongfang. The woman smiled at her so Fan Xifeng reciprocate.

"Next, Team A will present their research project proposal." Supervisor Gu introduced at once and Cheuk Rongfang stood up confidently.

The entire she presents Team A's report, she kept glancing Fan Xifeng's way observing which part she took notes down to see for herself as well where to prepare for a question. However, the entire, Fan Xifeng just listened and didn't do anything else.

After Cheuk Rongfang finished her report, Superior Gu spoke, "Team B leader Jing, do you have anything to discussed?"

Fan Xifeng smiled, "Not at the moment Superior Gu. If there's something, I'd rather talk it with Team A leader Cheuk." This is Fan Xifeng's first time to learn more of the Tang Mall project. But with the advantage of the flash of memory, she could pinpoint what's really wrong with it.

Fan Xifeng nevertheless do not want to get more attention than what she earlier had because of her discussion on Li Resort project. She also noticed that Team A leader Cheuk Rongfang keeps looking her way and she understand why, therefore, she'd rather discuss her observation personally with Team A leader Cheuk.

To interpolate Qi Anmei is alright since the woman is her subordinate but Cheuk Rongfang is a team leader like herself. Fan Xifeng do not want to create trouble and tension between two teams.

Cheuk Rongfang also smiled back and said, "Your fresh ideas and new perspective would be very much acceptable and welcome, Team B leader Jing. You can always come to my quarter."

"Thank you Team A leader Cheuk. I will."

Seeing that the atmosphere is good, Supervisor Gu smiled. "Since Team B leader Jing Feng was just officially introduce, we will have a welcoming dinner tonight! Everyone is invited!"

Everyone applauded. Fan Xifeng's phone at that moment vibrated in her pocket and she pulled to check it out. A message from Fan Xiaodan asking her for a dinner outside. She was about to type her reply when her eyes strayed on the time, 11:11 and she paused, for another memory flashed before her!
