Chen Lei, from Shandong Province, won the chance to have the talk with Ren by bidding 450000 yuan (72270 US dollars) a month ago. Chen said he sent Shandong's local product Dezhou braised chicken to Ren as a gift, while Ren gave him books he had written in return. Ren treated Chen to a meal of hot pot in Ren's restaurant in Beijing and the lunch time did not count towards the three-hour discussion. The talk started from 1:30 pm and ended at 4:30 pm after lunch. Their topics covered politics, society, public welfare and enterprise management, but not a word about the real estate business. Chen joked that he felt he earned 225000 yuan through the talk with Ren. From: bontvchina Views: 0 0 ratings Time: 01:58 More in News & Politics
