Rebuilding the business empire

In the bustling and noisy modern metropolis, Ye Chen once stood at the pinnacle of wealth, with a personal fortune of 400 billion yuan in his hands. His name was like a thunderclap in the business world, an object of admiration and envy for countless people. However, fate played an extremely cruel joke on him, and a sudden accident brought his life to an abrupt end. When Ye Chen regained consciousness again, he found himself miraculously reborn and thrown back sixty years ago. The world before his eyes was both strange and familiar. The dilapidated streets and simple houses all told of the poverty and backwardness of that era. And he himself was no longer the glorious business magnate but a despised, penniless gambler. His wife, the woman who had once accompanied him through thick and thin, was now full of disappointment and determination, only begging him to sign the divorce papers to completely break free from this painful marriage. His father-in-law and mother-in-law hated him to the core. The looks they gave him seemed as if they wanted to devour him alive, wishing he could vanish from this world and never appear in their lives again. What was worse, those loan sharks who lent money at exorbitant interest rates were like wolves, closely watching him and constantly issuing threatening ultimatums for him to pay back the money. The slightest mistake would subject him to their ruthless and violent debt collection. However, Ye Chen was not crushed by this difficult situation. Relying on the memories and experiences of the sixty years from his previous life, he began his desperate counterattack. He knew full well the huge changes and opportunities that this era was about to usher in. Starting from small businesses on the street corners, he gradually accumulated his first pot of gold by making precise judgments about future business trends. As time went by, his business empire continued to expand, covering multiple fields such as manufacturing, real estate, and technology. The innovative products and business models he launched led the tides of the times time and time again, shocking the entire business world. During this process, he encountered the envy and suppression of countless competitors. They united to try to stop Ye Chen's rise. But Ye Chen, with his wisdom and courage, skillfully resolved one crisis after another and instead turned the attacks of his opponents into the driving force for his progress. In the game with various forces, Ye Chen gradually built a business empire that was unrivaled in the world. His enterprises spread all over the world, providing employment opportunities for countless people and promoting the development of the global economy. And he himself, from a despised gambler, had become a respected business legend. Finally, standing at the top of his business empire, Ye Chen looked back on the past with mixed feelings. He had rewritten his fate with his rebirth and created a business myth that shook the world, becoming an eternal legend.

"Something went wrong? What went wrong?"

Liu Zhuo, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, stood up from his big chair. Having worked together for many years, he knew Xiao Qiang very well.

If the situation wasn't so difficult, she would never have come to me.

Admiralty Village is the business territory of the Hengda Group that is particularly valued by the chairman this time.

In an instant, Liu Zhuo also became extremely solemn.

"Originally I shouldn't have come to you, Old Liu, for this matter, but the problem is thorny, so I have to consult you. Just one day before the chairman convened a strategic meeting on suburban development, Jinzhong Village was taken over by someone else, just one day faster than us!"

Xiao Qiang said in a serious voice with an extremely solemn expression.

"What? There's a one-day time difference, and someone got there first?"

Liu Zhuo frowned, "Is it our competitor?"

"It shouldn't be a competitor, because the other party has openly expressed the intention to sell. If it were a competitor, there would be no way they would leave room for selling!" Xiao Qiang said.

"Is that because the other party is asking for too much?"

Thinking of the difficult and sad expression revealed by Xiao Qiang, combined with the information that the other party should not be a competitor.

The only possibility Liu Zhuo could think of was that the lion's mouth was wide open.

With Liu Zhuo's sharp words.

Xiao Qiang smiled bitterly, "Perhaps it's hard to describe the lion's mouth! Just last night, I asked him out for a preliminary meeting. That guy is currently an unknown figure in the business world. At least I haven't heard of him - a name called Ye Chen. And if I'm not wrong in my analysis, his acquisition of Jinzhong Village is also a personal act, and there should be no financial backer behind him!

Liu Zhuo didn't respond, he knew Xiao Qiang hadn't finished speaking.

"He only spent more than 60 million on the acquisition of the 66 houses and plots in Admiralty Village, which should be no more than 1 million per plot on average. During our first meeting last night, I expressed my intention and offered 1.5 million per plot! Guess what? He said I was not sincere and walked away on the spot! In just one day, he made more than 30 million by reselling the plots, but he actually said I was not sincere and did not even give me any room for negotiation, and just walked away!

At this point, Xiao Qiang couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Having been in the business world for many years, she has seen many people who do not play by the rules and too many greedy people.

But this was the first time she had encountered someone like Ye Chen.

"Then how much does he want?" Liu Zhuo frowned and asked in a deep voice.

Xiao Qiang exhaled.

Bitterness appeared between his brows, "Guess what!

"Five million per place?" Liu Zhuo blurted out.

In his opinion, a five-fold increase in just one or two days was already insane enough in terms of greed.

"Five million? If it were five million, that could be described as a lion's mouth. But he wants ten million, - ten million -! Including today, there are only three days left. He wants to sell it at ten times the price, and he even threatened not to sell it for even a cent less!" Xiao Qiang smiled bitterly.

"Is he crazy? He dares to offer such a price? An acquisition worth more than 60 million, and he wants to spend more than 600 million in just a few days?" Liu Zhuo exclaimed.

He was really shocked by the price!

"I don't know whether he is crazy or not, but he said he would not sell it to you for a cent less. I personally don't think he is bluffing. Based on my initial judgment and analysis of him, he will most likely hold on to this price!" Xiao Qiang said.

Without waiting for Liu Zhuo to respond, he continued, "That's why I said the problem is difficult. This kind of price is not something I can decide! Old Liu, what do you think about this matter? I can't make up my mind!"

"Did he dare to offer such a price? Did he know that our Hengda Group must take over Admiralty Village?!"

Liu Zhuo tugged at his tie and gritted his teeth. "In just a few days, something that could have been done with tens of millions now costs hundreds of millions. How can I report this to the chairman?"

"Now our Hengda Group is like fish on the chopping board. We have no initiative. Jinzhong Village happens to be the throat fortress for developing remote suburban areas. Now it is firmly grasped by the other party. What do you think we can do?" Xiao Qiang said.

"If we can't take over Admiralty Village, it won't be that easy to get the development rights of the suburban areas from the government. Once the government announces the extension of Metro Line 10 and sends out a signal of planning and development of the suburban areas, our Hengda Group's previous initiative will be wasted. More importantly, once other capital intervenes in this feast of the suburbs, all our advantages will be gone!"

Liu Zhuo's brows were already twisted into a "川" shape at this time.

"It is precisely because of this that I can't make up my mind! Jinzhong Village is a place we must take, but I really can't ask the chairman for a price of more than 600 million!" Xiao Qiang nodded.

This feeling, um...what is it like?

It was like having a fly stuck in my throat.

I want to vomit but I dare not.

I tried to swallow it, but couldn't.

"I will report the situation to the chairman first. You can invite him to the group headquarters and I will talk to him in person. We don't know when the municipal government will make a decision to publicize the extension of Metro Line 10. Under the current situation, he can afford to delay, but we can't!" Liu Zhuo thought for a moment and said sternly.

"Okay, I'll ask him to come over later!"

Xiao Qiang is very fast.

As Liu Zhuo said, Ye Chen can afford it, but the Hengda Group can't.

However, when she dialed Ye Chen's mobile number, a reminder sounded that the other party was on the phone.

In the amusement park in Jiangzhou.

Chen Yinuo and Xiao Youyou rode the carousel happily.

Ye Chen ran to buy water.

On the way back after buying water.

Zhang Jingshan called.

"Brother Ye!"

"Hmm? Something?"

Carrying the water, Ye Chen said as he walked back to the carousel area. "Brother Ye, the old man asked me to invite you to come to his house for a simple meal tonight, what do you think?" Zhang Jingshan smiled awkwardly.

"What's going on? Why did the old secretary ask me to come over for dinner for no reason?"

As he spoke, Ye Chen seemed to have thought of something, "Did you say something to the old secretary again?"

"I didn't say anything. I chatted with him for a while last night. He asked me what I was doing now. I said nothing. Then we talked about the acquisition of Jinzhong Village. As we were talking, he asked me to invite you to his house for dinner! Brother Ye, do you think it's convenient? Can you spare some time?" Zhang Jingshan said.

But he didn't ask about the skin cream that the old man mentioned. After all, he wasn't a stupid person.

You should know clearly what you should ask and what you shouldn't ask.

If Ye Chen wanted him to know and wanted him to participate, he would tell him.

Otherwise, if he asked, he would be asking for trouble and it would also affect the relationship between them.

No immediate answer

Ye Chen paused.

Because of the acquisition of Jinzhong Village, the old secretary wanted to invite him to his home for dinner?

It seems like it's the same trick used under the grape trellis last time!

However, he didn't feel any disgust.

It is not a bad thing for him to be able to magnify his aura of being a master in the heart of the old secretary Zhang Weimin.

"Okay, what time?" Ye Chen asked.

"Around six o'clock, just come over around six o'clock!" Zhang Jingshan said with a bright laugh.

"Okay!" Ye Chen nodded.

"Then I'll go tell the old man right away. Yes, Brother Ye, do you want me to send you a location?

"No need. I went there with you last time and I remember the way!" "Okay, that's it!"

Ye Chen hung up the phone.

Without waiting, he put his phone back in his pocket.

Xiao Qiang's phone rang again.

"Boss Xiao, what's the matter? Is the price I offer acceptable to the Hengda Group?"

Ye Chen asked with a smile.

Xiao Qiang stamped her feet back and forth several times before finally getting through the phone. She felt choked up in her throat when she heard the laughter.

This feeling of being strangled and completely losing the initiative was too uncomfortable for Xiao Qiang.

"Mr. Ye, let's not talk about the price for now. So, are you free later? Can you come to our Hengda Group headquarters?" Xiao Qiang said with a smile, suppressing her emotions.

"Later? I'm busy. I'm at the amusement park and have to accompany my wife and kids!" Ye Chen said. Xiao Qiang was immediately stunned.

Is playing with my wife and kids in kindergarten more important than a multi-million dollar business?

"What about later?" Xiao Qiang asked again.

"I'm not free either. I have to go out for dinner with someone else!" Ye Chen said.

Xiao Qiang's face, which was still as pretty as it was in her youth and full of charm and seductiveness, was trembling wildly.

Is this guy deliberately trying to control the Xiangda Group?

But she overthought.

Ye Chen really had no intention of controlling the other party.

Compared to accompanying his wife and children, and having been invited to have dinner with the old secretary Zhang Weimin, Ye Chen thought it was more important than the invitation from the Hengda Group.

After all, he has no trouble selling, it is the Hengda Group that is in a hurry to buy.

"Then when would it be convenient for you to come over?" Xiao Qiang asked with a mechanical smile, suppressing her emotions.

"Tomorrow morning!" Ye Chen said.

call--

Xiao Qiang breathed a sigh of relief. This was not bad.

"Okay, then please come to our Hengda Group tomorrow, Mr. Ye. I will inform the front desk. Just tell them when you arrive!
