Chapter 1992 Just Leave
People who are obsessed with Six Senses are just falling in love with her slow life vacation philosophy, but "slow" does not mean doing nothing.
For example, the Adam & Eve door card from Six Senses Seychelles, the small bicycle from Six Senses Maldives, the straw slippers from Six Senses Vietnam...
Pay attention to every small detail, and you will be amazed by Six Senses' unique efforts in integrating local culture. What's special is that you can let Six Senses' butlers take you into the local area and experience the unique life of local residents.
Spa experts, celebrity chefs, astronomers, marine biologists, gliding masters... are all employees of Six Senses. Staying in the hotel seems to open up various skills learning modes.
. . .
The reason why Yang Cheng knows Six Senses so well is because when he tried to acquire Banyan Tree before, he also got to know the ‘masters’ in this field, and Six Senses was one of them.
When he first heard that Intercontinental was going to acquire Six Senses, Yang Cheng instantly remembered the information he had read and thought it would be great if he could acquire Six Senses.
But there is also a problem. Six Senses has been targeting Amman over the years. Basically, wherever there is Amman, there is Six Senses. If Six Senses is acquired, will it cause a certain diversion of resources?
This is something Yang Cheng needs to consider carefully.
"After cleaning up, go and call Riz up~"
"Okay boss~"
Not long after, Ryze knocked on the door and came in, "Boss, did you call me?"
"Yes, I just heard that InterContinental is acquiring Six Senses, and I wanted to ask your opinion. By the way, the founder of Six Senses is a compatriot with you, right?"
"Yes, I have met him at some parties. Sonu is a very wise man."
“Regarding Six Senses, if we acquire it, will it overlap with Amman’s positioning?”
“When we originally tried to acquire Banyan Tree, one was for the mid-range and the other for the high-end. Six Senses’ positioning is the same as Amman, but currently, Six Senses is more inclined to nature, while Amman has returned from nature to the city~ "
Yang Cheng waved his hand, "Six Senses is also building an urban resort hotel~"
Ryze was stunned, "Really? In this case, it seems that they really overlap~"
Yang Cheng frowned,
"In this case, once there is intercontinental diversion and financial support, will it have an impact on Amman?"
Ruiz did not reply directly this time. He pondered for a long time before saying, "There will definitely be an impact, but whether it is Amman or Six Senses, the customer groups they target are actually very narrow. We cannot expect Amman to catch all this group. Besides, there is competition. As for the room for improvement, I think retaining Six Senses as our opponent and constantly stimulating Amman to innovate is far more meaningful than the acquisition."
Yang Cheng thought carefully about Ruiz's words and felt that there was some truth in it. However, Yang Cheng agreed with Sonu's philosophy that some things are 'expensive' and do not mean luxury. They are rare only if they are rare.
To him, the Six Senses were like rare luxuries. If he didn't get them, he would always feel unhappy.
Seeing that Yang Cheng didn't say anything, Ruiz suggested, "How about you experience Six Senses Hotel for yourself? Then decide whether to acquire it?"
Yang Cheng's eyes lit up, "This is a good idea~"
He immediately shouted to the door, "Jun Yu, help me book a trip to the Six Senses Hotel. Don't use my name, use yours~"
Liu Junyu hurriedly walked in and asked, "Okay, but which country should I choose? Maldives? Yuenan?"
Yang Cheng thought for a while and didn't choose these two classic tourist destinations. "No, I'll choose the one in Portugal's Douro Valley~"
"Okay, how many days will it be scheduled?"
"A week or so~ We tentatively plan to leave tomorrow~"
"OK~"
Yang Cheng was on a casual trip. If he hadn't agreed to Xiao Zha's dinner tonight, he would have flown there right now.
After Liu Junyu left, Yang Cheng said to Ruiz, "If I acquire Six Senses, I will definitely not let them build a city hotel. This goes against their philosophy~"
Ruiz nodded, "Yes, no matter how you build a city hotel, it will lose its natural flavor, and it cannot be environmentally friendly no matter what.
One Amman is enough, the Six Senses should continue to mix in nature~"
Yang Cheng felt anxious for some reason and thought, "How about you go to the dinner tonight for me?"
Riz was stunned for a moment, "What kind of dinner?"
“Have you heard about Xiao Zha’s cryptocurrency plan?”
"I heard something~"
"That's it. He is planning to have a meeting with Wall Street to convince Wall Street investment banks to join. With this power, it is impossible for Congress to stop the implementation of the plan~"
Ruiz was stunned and hesitated, "Is it appropriate for me to go?"
"If there is any inappropriateness, you have full authority to represent me, but there is no need to express your opinion. We have only one purpose. We cannot lag behind if others participate, but if no one participates, we will never be the first to eat crabs~"
With these words as support, Ruiz knew what was going on, "No problem, I'll bring someone to attend tonight~"
Yang Cheng thanked Liu Junyu for his hard work, and then told Liu Junyu, "The time has been changed. We will leave immediately and let the hotel arrange a pick-up~"
"Okay~"
. . .
It’s actually not the best season to go to Portugal, but it’s not bad. If you’re lucky, you can watch a football match.
Although the destination of this trip is the Douro Valley, the plane cannot land in the valley. You must first go to Porto International Airport and then drive to the valley.
Porto is located on the north bank of the Douro River estuary on the northern coast of Portugal, 310 kilometers away from the capital Lisbon.
Like Lisbon, Porto also stands on a hill, overlooking the river below. The Douro River divides Porto into the old city and Villeneuve de Gaia. There are 6 bridges connecting them. The north bank is the cultural and living area, and the right bank Vila Nova de Gaia is home to most of the wineries.
A common saying here is: Water is more expensive than wine in Portugal, which shows that the country lacks rain and is a place rich in wine. When it comes to Portuguese red wine, the most representative one is Porto red wine. Porto red wine is famous because of the wine. Luohe.
There are 700,000 acres of grape growing area in the mountainous area of 100 kilometers from east to west of Porto. In particular, the 80,000 acres of terraced fields on both sides of the Douro River are excellent land for planting fine grapes. The reason is that the roots of grape vines can grow in these areas. The slopes rich in potassium and phosphorus extend to 20 to 30 meters underground. Changes in humidity and temperature throughout the seasons will not affect their absorption of nutrients. Coupled with Portugal's abundant sunshine, excellent wine grapes can be grown here.
Maybe it's the famous Porto red wine. It seems that if you know Porto red wine, you know Porto.
That is really a big misunderstanding. Visitors will not mind if the guide mentions those boring era introductions, which monarch reigned in which year, and which year changed. Seeing Porto is much more interesting than hearing about Porto. , the scenery seen from every angle of the city will be intoxicating.
By the way, in the eyes of fans, the famous football black shop is in this city, and its reputation is far greater than wine!
