Chapter 158 Destined to be entangled
We didn’t have dinner in Songjiang.
Qiao Zhiyuan did not bring Zheng Na with him, but asked Luo Qingling to accompany him.
Including Zhang Yongchao, there were only four people in total, so it was indeed a small gathering.
When he saw Luo Yang, Zhang Yongchao's eyes almost turned red.
Come to think of it, I finally managed to hold onto a thigh, thinking it was extremely strong, but I didn't expect it to quit in the blink of an eye.
Many people did not understand this change.
Those who understand don't say anything.
"Do your best. I am also a consultant for the company. I can help you if I have the chance."
"Boss Luo, I won't say any more. Anyway, I recognize you as my leader and I am convinced!"
Two taels of white wine, just drink it up.
After sitting down, he still had a lot of complaints: "Guo Wanyu is a vixen. When you were here, she wanted to stick to you. When the new director came, she immediately..."
"A new emperor chooses new ministers."
Luo Yang returned half a pot of wine: "Don't be resistant to the new director. You are doing this for the higher-ups to see. Mr. Liang is becoming more and more mature and will see a lot of things. Don't ruin your future because of your emotions."
"Mr. Luo is absolutely right!"
Qiao Zhiyuan interrupted at the right moment: "Xiao Zhang, what Mr. Luo said just now is all good advice."
Zhang Yongchao is also a smart man. He nodded to show that he had listened.
After the two of them reminisced about the past, Qiao Zhiyuan took over the topic.
"Mr. Luo, I heard that Jincheng, Santai and Yangguang are jointly bidding for the demolition and resettlement project in Minhang?"
"That's what happened."
This kind of thing cannot be hidden from anyone who is interested. Everyone in the circle who should know about it knows about it.
"Our boss also has some connections. There is news that Minhang is quite interested in the proposal put forward by the three consortiums. The possibility of winning the bid is very high!"
Qiao Zhiyuan gave Luo Yang a thumbs up at this time: "It is said that the whole plan came from Mr. Luo, it's amazing!"
That's quite a skill. Are you so well-informed?
So Luo Yang was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly.
"Boss Qiao, please don't flatter me. The whole plan was discussed collectively by the three parties. I just provided some suggestions."
"Some words are just to make up the word count, but some can add the finishing touch."
Qiao Zhiyuan said this meaningfully, and then smiled and said, "So I feel that although Mr. Luo has resigned from the position of marketing director, his influence on Jincheng Real Estate is definitely not small."
The boss of Pegasus Advertising is really awesome. When the plan was first discussed, there were only a few people in the meeting room.
"Mr. Qiao praised it."
Now that the other party already knows more inside information, it would not be modesty to conceal it any further.
"I had dinner with Mr. Fu Bin on Monday."
Qiao Zhiyuan then revealed another piece of news that surprised Luo Yang: "When President Fu mentioned you, he was full of praise."
No wonder. It turned out to be Fu Bin from Santai.
"Mr. Fu is also a sentimental person. He is more protective of young people and it is common for him to praise them."
It is always right to say good things. Luo Yang smiled and said, "Since Mr. Qiao and Mr. Fu have such a good relationship, the business of the Minhang project will be secure this time."
"Then I'll take advantage of Mr. Luo's good words."
Qiao Zhiyuan raised his glass to toast and drank a small cup with Luo Yang.
"Based on the information we have so far, the situation is not very optimistic and I am not very sure."
After putting down the cup, he smiled bitterly and said, "Yangguang, Santai and Jincheng have already made a division of labor. The engineering of the entire demolition project was given to Jincheng, the marketing was given to Santai, Yangguang took the design, cost and procurement, and the finance was jointly supervised by the three parties."
"I really don't know."
Luo Yang said honestly: "Don't meddle in other people's affairs if you are not in their position."
It usually works like this when a consortium undertakes a project: several companies divide the work and cooperate, and each company must contribute its strongest department.
When Luo Yang was in Jincheng before, marketing would undoubtedly be assigned to Jincheng.
As soon as Luo Yang left, Jincheng took over the project.
"Mr. Luo is joking."
Qiao Zhiyuan didn't take Luo Yang's humble words seriously and continued, "I heard that the Minhang project will have to build a large enclosure in the future, and the amount of work will be considerable."
That's it!
This is the main purpose of tonight's dinner party.
Don’t underestimate the amount of fencing work for the Minhang project. Luo Yangmao has estimated that it is not small!
According to the finalized plan, isolation fences will be built inside the demolition area. The cost of the entire project will definitely be over two million.
The early stage of the project was given to Jincheng, no wonder Qiao Zhiyuan would look for Luo Yang.
"Isn't this matter under the supervision of Vice President of Engineering Jiang Fangjie?"
Luo Yang frowned and said, "Even if I were the marketing director, I might not be able to intervene. Besides, the procurement is under the management of Yangguang, and the relationships there are even more complicated."
The three real estate companies are each in charge of several major areas, which creates a mutual check and balance.
The construction unit was recommended by Jincheng, but the procurement was controlled by Yangguang. If you want it to go smoothly, everyone has to give up part of their interests. The same goes for Santai. The marketing business needs to be balanced with Yangguang, otherwise the procurement will be stuck and you will be in turmoil.
"I know that this project must have the approval of General Manager Jiang, and it must also be approved by the Yangguang Procurement Department."
Qiao Zhiyuan had already figured out the ins and outs of this, so he calmly explained, "So we just need you to make some connections, and we'll handle the rest of the business ourselves. As for Sunshine's procurement department, we'll also handle it ourselves. Regardless of whether this thing succeeds or not, we'll be grateful for your kindness."
Luo Yang pondered for a moment before saying, "The Minhang project has not been finalized yet, so it's too early to discuss this now. Let's wait until the wild geese come down before discussing whether to steam or braise it."
"I was anxious!"
Qiao Zhiyuan immediately reflected: "Then let's wait for good news from the three companies. If we really get this project, we'll trouble Mr. Luo then."
"Mr. Luo is also a wonderful person."
When it comes to adjusting the atmosphere, Luo Qingling is definitely an expert.
After a serious discussion, the atmosphere at the table was rather chilly, so she seized the opportunity to interrupt. "Do you think I'd prefer steamed or braised?"
Luo Qingling giggled and leaned on Luo Yang's shoulder.
His words and actions were hinting to Luo Yang: I am a goose that has been shot down, and you can do anything with me.
Those with less experience really can't tell the difference.
It's not embarrassing to hear it, just follow the metaphor above and you can interpret it any way you want.
A young woman in her twenties, graceful and mature, she is popular with men of almost all ages.
But Luo Yang was able to control himself.
He smiled and responded, "I prefer blanched ones."
"?"
Luo Qingling couldn't understand what Luo Yang meant for a moment.
"Manager Luo, let's have a drink."
Luo Yang didn't give her time to think and raised his wine cup to signal her.
After drinking two taels of white wine, Luo Qingling was still frowning and thinking.
Qiao Zhiyuan did sense something, but he didn't point it out. He changed the subject and chatted with Luo Yang about industry gossip.
Since the serious business had been discussed, the following conversation was more relaxed.
Although Luo Yang is young, he has a lot of knowledge in his head. He can tell some dirty jokes at will, and sometimes even Qiao Zhiyuan and Luo Qingling have to think before they can react.
The key is to be flawless in what he says, even more slippery than a veteran in the world.
The dinner ended a little after eight o'clock.
"Boss Luo, shall we find another place to play for a while?"
"Forget it. I have to go back to my hometown tomorrow morning and I have to get up early."
Luo Yang shook hands with Qiao Zhiyuan and said, "Mr. Qiao, there is no reward without merit. It's not too late to celebrate some things after they are finalized!"
"That's right. Then I won't disturb Mr. Luo's rest."
After seeing Luo Yang off to the car and watching the taillights disappear, Qiao Zhiyuan turned to Zhang Yongchao and said, "Manager Zhang, shall we find a place to have a drink?"
"Boss Qiao, forget it."
Zhang Yongchao looked bitter: "The new director is enforcing discipline recently. Don't dare to be late tomorrow."
As expected of Qiao Zhiyuan, even after being rejected twice in a row, he still sent Zhang Yongchao to the taxi with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Qiao?"
"Ok?"
"What does Bai Zhu mean?"
Until the show ended, Luo Qingling was still struggling with this sentence.
"Don't underestimate Luo Yang because he is young. He is not a simple man."
Qiao Zhiyuan did not immediately explain Luo Qingling's doubts. Instead, he sighed and said, "No wonder President Fu is full of praise for her."
"Not only is he not simple, he is simply an old fox!"
Luo Qingling bit her lower lip and said, "If I didn't tell you, who would know that he is still a sophomore?"
"Luo Yang is too cautious in his conduct."
"He's so cautious that he's like an old man. But what does this have to do with Bai Zhuo?"
Luo Qingling was puzzled and asked, "Does he dislike me? That's not right, he doesn't even touch Zheng Na!"
"Compare this to what he said later when he declined the second match: No reward without merit. Some things are better celebrated after they are finalized!"
Qiao Zhiyuan smacked his lips and explained, "Before things were done, he hoped to maintain a clean relationship with us, so that he could act with confidence and avoid feeling that he owed us a favor and being constrained in doing things."
Luo Qingling: “.”
After opening her mouth for a long time, she finally uttered one sentence in a daze: "You are only a few years old, and you are like this. What a monster!"
"so"
Qiao Zhiyuan teased Luo Qingling, "If he really wants to eat you one day, you'd better not resist."
"Pooh!"
Luo Qingling spat indignantly: "Even if he wants to, I won't let him do it!"
"hehe."
Qiao Zhiyuan smiled and shook his head without arguing.
The demolition project in Minhang alone covers more than 500,000 square meters, plus the resettlement land, the total construction area exceeds 800,000 square meters.
The interests involved are too great.
As it happens, three companies are working together to do this, and the situation becomes increasingly complicated. Often one thing requires the involvement of two or even three companies at the same time.
Although it is troublesome, who would be willing to give up such a big piece of fat meat?
Although Luo Yang is no longer the marketing director of Jincheng, as Fu Bin said to him that night, his actual influence on Jincheng far exceeds the imagination of outsiders.
Moreover, even Fu Bin himself admitted that if Luo Yang spoke up, he and Wei Chaoping would definitely give him face.
Especially at the joint discussion meeting of the three companies last week, Fu Bin and Wei Chaoping truly witnessed how powerful Luo Yang was.
If you work in real estate and you are not stupid, who wouldn't want to have a good relationship with him?
Luo Yang thought that everything would be fine after he resigned from Jincheng. But in fact, it was just the beginning.
The entanglement of human relationships meant that it was impossible for him to escape so easily.
It took a whole chapter to explain that it is not so easy for the protagonist to get rid of human relationships, and it is impossible for him to sever his ties with real estate. This can be regarded as a foreshadowing. I hope it does not drag down the plot.
