Chapter 298 The True Intention of the Dinner
There was a vacant seat between Cai Fujun and Cao Zixi, obviously reserved for Luo Yang.
The white wine has been poured on the table and six cold dishes have been placed on the table.
As soon as he sat down, the waiter started serving the food.
It's not a small gathering of three or five people, nor is it a drink with buddies. The dinner party that seems like a casual chat must have a theme.
Luo Yang was very patient and was not in a hurry to test the water, so he drank along during the first two rounds.
"This is the third cup. Let's congratulate Mr. Jiang. He has finally escaped from the sea of suffering and can now work hard."
Qiao Zhiyuan led the last round of drinking and carried Jiang Fangjie out.
Luo Yang's eyebrows twitched slightly.
It seems that the three companies have finally separated and are doing their own things.
"Old Qiao, I just benefited from it. The three bosses did the hard work. If we really count the contributions, Mr. Luo has made more than me."
Where is the bigness?
The fuse?
"Look at my memory. I almost forgot about Mr. Luo."
Qiao Zhiyuan slapped his head, looked at Luo Yang with a smile and said, "If Mr. Luo hadn't made a sacrifice for this matter, it would be hard to find a reason."
"I also benefited from it!"
Luo Yang waved his hand and said modestly: "There was some affection between us before. Anyway, I don't plan to make a living in the real estate industry. Whatever I spend, I spend."
After saying this, he glanced at Cao Zixi intentionally or unintentionally.
I don’t know if he was talking about people or money, or both.
"Mr. Luo made it very clear."
Jiang Fangjie responded with a smile: "Everyone is here to make a living. Friendship is friendship, and making money is making money!"
Everything is going smoothly for him now, so he feels less uncomfortable when facing Luo Yang.
"Having said that, I really admire Mr. Fu Bin's courage. He let go of the Minhang demolition and resettlement project and only took the single plot of land."
This information stunned Luo Yang.
Fu Bin had nothing to do with the demolition, resettlement and commercial projects in the old city area that covered more than 500,000 square meters?
They just asked for a remote plot of land that was originally planned to be used as a resettlement community.
Is it because the establishment of Cathay Industrial Properties caused him to be short of funds and start to shrink?
Or is it because you trust your own judgment?
As of now, there are still more than a dozen households that have not been relocated in the Minhang project. If this kind of thing cannot be resolved in one go at the beginning, it is normal for it to be delayed for two to three years.
But according to market conditions, problems will arise if it is delayed until the second half of next year, let alone two or three years.
When the property market enters a cold winter, large amounts of money will be invested in projects, and smaller real estate companies will really be dragged down.
All real estate bosses know that this cyclical fluctuation pattern will come, but no one can tell the exact time.
Luo Yang and Fu Bin had more contact with each other before the end of last year, so they talked about the cyclical fluctuations in the market during a casual chat.
He made a "judgment" at that time that the next fluctuation cycle of the real estate market would come in 13.
Fu Bin acquired a separate plot of land at this time and will be able to start construction in April or May this year, with pre-sales starting around October. Given the current hot real estate market, the land will basically be cleared before the cold winter of 13 arrives.
Recover funds and focus on industrial real estate.
If Lian Santai can control the development pace well, it can perfectly avoid 13 years.
If you covet the profits from the demolition of land in the old city, and if you are held back by stubborn households, the project will not start on schedule, which will cause a lot of trouble later.
"Mr. Fu is currently focusing his energy on industrial real estate."
Qiao Zhiyuan interrupted at the right time and explained to his old classmate with a smile: "He is planning to start a new project, which requires a large amount of cash flow, so taking some money and leaving is the best option."
It seems that Fu Bin not only avoided trouble, but also got a sum of cash and left.
This reason was enough, and Jiang Fangjie believed it, and glanced at Luo Yang with a smile.
As a senior executive of Jincheng Real Estate, he vaguely knew that when Fu Bin established Cathay Industrial Real Estate, Luo Yang was involved.
After three glasses of wine, everyone was free to express themselves.
"Mr. Jiang, please take care of my affairs."
Cai Fujun raised his glass to toast alone. He had cooperated with Jiang Fangjie in the recycling of scrap steel bars and the supply of building materials.
Now that the three companies are separated and each is doing its own thing, Lao Jiang has much more say in the projects allocated to Jincheng Real Estate and can make decisions on many matters.
The two of them were chatting enthusiastically, and Qiao Zhiyuan went to find Luo Yang.
"Mr. Luo is busy recently?"
"Well, I've been busy lately, and I've even lost sight of the big picture."
There was no exaggeration in Luo Yang's words.
Kunpeng Technology's Deyang Electric Motor, which was invested in Yang City, is waiting for the land to be listed, while also keeping an eye on the city's 3000 million low-interest loan;
Fengshang Men's Wear was launched. Although Shang Guozheng took on most of the responsibility, he still had to control the key nodes. Naixue's second batch of 100 stores were being laid out, and during this period, he had to take into account the million yuan loan and the creation of a new brand.
Sunshine Electronics is waiting for the land quota to come down, and it also needs to quickly get a loan of 5000 million;
The construction of the ready-mixed cement mortar plant has entered the middle stage. In two more months, the equipment will be installed and the machine will be debugged.
Something unexpected happened to the pilot project in Shuangfeng Town, which took up some of his attention.
This was on the premise that he took the initiative to turn down some of the requests, such as the invitation to go to the capital to attend the opening ceremony in the afternoon.
"No wonder Mr. Cao didn't dare to contact you. He even called me."
"Ok?"
Luo Yang didn't expect Qiao Zhiyuan to suddenly mention Cao Zixi.
He subconsciously turned his head to look at the little woman sitting next to him.
Cao Zixi avoided his gaze and lowered his head.
"What exactly?"
“Although we won the bid for the Minhang project, the construction will not start until the end of the year, and the company has no work at all now.”
The voice got lower and lower as he spoke: "I am worried about supporting a group of workers and technicians for nothing."
"Santai has a project in Qingpu, and the municipal greening project is about to start."
Qiao Zhiyuan smiled and said, "On matters like this, Mr. Luo's words are more effective than mine. Besides, no matter how busy he is, it's only a phone call away. Mr. Luo always has time for that."
Cao Zixi moved his lips but didn't respond.
Doesn’t she want to?
It’s just that Luo Yang was deliberately cold last time, and as sensitive as she was, she felt it at that time.
Not to mention that he didn't call her again afterwards. It was so obvious that he was avoiding her that even a fool could guess what Luo Yang was thinking.
A person who was about to drown finally grabbed the edge of a luxury cruise ship. How could he be willing to sink again?
While waiting for Luo Yang's response, Cao Zixi was extremely nervous. He bit his lower lip and twisted his fingers together under the table, so that his veins were exposed.
"I'll ask for you tomorrow."
"Thank you, thank you Mr. Luo."
Cao Zixi let out a long sigh and quickly picked up the wine glass in front of him.
This young woman, probably used to being a rich lady, doesn't know how to serve others and only knows how to toast excitedly.
After responding with a glass, Luo Yang turned his gaze to Qiao Zhiyuan again.
He was not so naive as to think that this game tonight was set up for Cao Zixi.
Sure enough, Cao Zixi was just a companion, a tool who chatted too much with Luo Yang.
"Mr. Luo, you know that I used to work for others, and now I'm already in my early forties."
Qiao Zhiyuan first lamented that he had wasted time, and then changed the subject: "I got some advice from Old Fu some time ago, and I plan to start something on my own. I wonder if Mr. Luo is interested in taking a share?"
Luo Yang's expression was obviously stunned.
The only thing he showed in Fu Bin's circle was his ability in real estate development.
Qiao Zhiyuan used to work in advertising and now plans to start his own business. Why did he choose me to invest in him?
Where does this idea come from?
Subconsciously, he glanced at Cai Fujun beside him.
Among those present, only Boss Cai knows that Luo Yang is "multi-talented". Could it be that he revealed some information?
"Boss Qiao, I'm afraid you think too highly of me."
Anyway, I'm already very busy recently, so how can I have the energy to take over other people's business?
If it was Ma Ge, Huang Duoduo, or Zhang Douyin who said this, he would still be interested.
Not to mention that he has been short of funds recently. At least before the loan is approved, he can't even take out 500 million in cash.
"I don't think highly of him at all. Mr. Luo has ready resources."
Qiao Zhiyuan smiled even more enthusiastically; "The Magic City is also one of the bridgeheads of culture and fashion in the country. I plan to set up a cultural industry company. As the saying goes, culture and entertainment are inseparable. Mr. Luo and I can still cooperate."
Cultural industry?
This direction was a little beyond Luo Yang's expectations.
But when you think about it, it’s not surprising. Advertising companies actually partly involve cultural industries in their business scope.
Qiao Zhiyuan's entrepreneurial direction did not deviate from his own cognitive scope.
"I do own some shares in a film and television investment company with Mr. Cai and a few others, but to be honest, it's just for fun."
Luo Yang didn't hesitate to make fun of himself at this time: "As a man, my hobbies are so vulgar."
"Hahaha"
Qiao Zhiyuan laughed in agreement: "Mr. Luo is a real man!"
The two then drank a glass of wine.
Next, Qiao Zhiyuan talked about the directions in which the two could cooperate.
Three chapters a day, my voice has become much louder.
Monthly ticket, give it here!
