Jin Rong International Hotel, a global high-end hotel chain brand, currently has 95 branches and belongs to the Rong Shi Holdings industry.
The late patriarch of the previous generation of the Rong Shi Group, who was Rong Jingyang's great-grandfather, initially opened hotels to provide convenient accommodation for himself and employees traveling on behalf of his affiliated industries.
As the tourism industry grew and hotel operations improved, they began to turn a profit.
The old man then expanded hotels to various locations worldwide.
Some relied on tourism, while others depended on business reception.
However, with the rampant spread of the pandemic in the past two to three years, to avoid virus transmission and human contact, a different type of tourism gained popularity: self-driving plus camping.
Hotel business began to incur losses.
Especially at the beginning of the pandemic, there were huge monthly losses in the tens of millions. Over two to three years, nearly a hundred hotels have cost the Rong Shi Group a considerable amount of money.
Rong Jingyang even started to use his own money to cover the deficits.
There are rumors that the economy will recover in 2024, and the pandemic will become normalized, but it will still result in losses for another two years.
Having spent real money, Rong Jingyang was unwilling to continue making losing ventures, so he planned to sell hotel shares and cash out.
Currently, Rong Cheng has contacted a strong hotel group in Australia to discuss the sale.
Therefore, Du Ruoxin's time is limited.
Since Rong Jingyang has not asked Rong Cheng to stop negotiations, if Du Ruoxin wants to turn losses into profits, she must provide a method and achieve profitability within one month.
Otherwise, the hotels will still be sold.
Entering the Rong Shi Building – Group Hotel Management Center, after Rong Cheng introduced Du Ruoxin's identity, she began to review financial statements and operational data.
"Ring ring ring—"
Before finishing the documents, Du Ruoxin's phone rang; it was her daughter's teacher.
"Mrs. Rong, Doudou has diarrhea. Please take her to the hospital."
What?
Du Ruoxin asked nervously, "Did Doudou eat anything at noon?"
Teacher: "No, you instructed us not to give her anything cold, hard, or irritating, and we haven't.
Then why does she have diarrhea?
Du Ruoxin stood up, but looking at the piled-up documents, she paused. "Okay, I'll have the nanny come pick her up."
Forcing down the urge to rush to her daughter's side, she called the nanny.
However, for the rest of the time, she was distracted.
The documents that she could have finished quickly were somehow blank in her mind even after reading them, forcing Du Ruoxin to start over.
When the nanny picked up Doudou, the little girl cried and clamored for her mother. Helplessly, the nanny had to video call Du Ruoxin.
"I don't want you, I want Mommy."
"I want Mommy..."
In the video, Rong Doudou's cries struck Du Ruoxin's heart.
Looking at her daughter's tear-filled eyes, her helplessness and fear, Du Ruoxin's composure completely crumbled.
"Doudou, be good, don't cry," Du Ruoxin said, holding her phone, her heart aching. "Mommy is working. Can you go see the doctor with Auntie first?"
"Mommy will come find you when she's done."
Upon hearing that she couldn't see her mother, Rong Doudou cried even harder. "I want Mommy, wuwuwu—"
She disliked the nanny; the nanny was a complete stranger to her.
In typical wealthy families, nannies are responsible for feeding and the daily routines of children, but Du Ruoxin did not do this.
She raised her own daughter herself.
Except for cooking, Du Ruoxin did not let anyone else interfere with her daughter's life, diet, or education.
That's why her daughter was so attached to her.
"Hurry and take me to find Mommy," Doudou cried and hit the nanny.
The nanny's phone was knocked to the ground. Fortunately, it had a protective case, or it would have shattered.
"Madam..."
What should I do? I can't carry the young lady away, and she keeps crying and fussing.
Du Ruoxin was completely flustered by her daughter's crying, her heart a tangled mess. "Okay, okay, Doudou, you go to the hospital with Auntie first, and Mommy will come directly to the hospital to find you, alright?"
To hell with work, to hell with Rong Jingyang!
Nothing is more important than her daughter!
