"CEO Yang, are you saying that low-income families can't pursue quality of life? Shouldn't they have greenery and public areas where they live? "Tang Jiu retorted." I would like to ask, are human rights divided into different classes? "
Yang Zhen's mood was much more relaxed now. He was able to respond easily. "No, I didn't say that. Human rights are not divided into different classes. But in this society, there are differences in status. Why can the rich afford to live in a seaside villa, but the poor can only apply for affordable housing? Do you think there is no difference? "
"But that doesn't mean that low-income families who can only live in affordable housing can't have greenery and public facilities." Tang Jiu said, "This is something that every community should have, even if it's an affordable housing."
Yang Zhen was not convinced. "Mr. Tang, you're thinking too simply. Do you know how much more money would be needed to build an affordable housing community according to the planning and construction of a perfect community, complete with greenery and public facilities? Do you know how much effort is needed? This is all about cost control! "
"But no matter how much you invest, you don't need future applicants for affordable housing to pay for it." Tang Jiu said, "They won't feel the pressure of cost."
"But we developers have it!" Yang Zhen said, "We have to pay for it. CEO Tang, this is affordable housing, not commercial housing. You also know that these things can't be added to the residents, right? Then this money … Are you thinking of, you … your Tang Enterprise will pay for it?! "
Tang Jiu nodded seriously. "Of course. This is an affordable housing. It's to provide security for low-income families. Although it's also a commercial housing, as a developer, you should understand that this project isn't about making money."
"But we are businessmen, not philanthropists. This is such a big affordable housing community. Do you know how much your words will increase the cost?" In Yang Zhen's eyes, Tang Jiu had changed from a strong career woman to a crazy woman!
Tang Jiu looked at Yang Zhen helplessly. "The country supports you, gives you subsidies, and even gives you a piece of land in the commercial district. They don't treat the developer badly at all. The developers can compensate for the loss of the affordable housing through subsidies and the land in the commercial district given by the city. It's not a loss at all. "
Yang Zhen was speechless. "If that's the case, you won't be able to earn any money. If you don't earn any money, you'll be losing time. You'll be wasting your efforts on two projects, and you'll end up with one going in and one going out. There's no profit at all. Why do you want to do this project?"
"This is a project that benefits both the country and the people. Many people also think that this is a project that will bring both fame and fortune." Tang Jiu said, "But our Tang Corporation only cares about fame and fortune, not profit. Or rather, we don't care about the title. We just want to do a project that benefits the country and the people. "
Yang Zhen was really at a loss for words. The other party came with the attitude of not earning money! What's there to compete for!
"The Tang Corporation started out in real estate, so I feel that after so many years, it's time for us to do something to give back to society." Tang Jiu said, "Besides, no matter how you look at it, you can still make a profit in the end because the land in the business district given by the city is really a prime location."
Yang Zhen admitted that they could make a profit, but it was not worth it to worry so much and take on such a huge responsibility to earn that little bit of money! It was really not worth it! The effort and return were not proportional.
If they did not take the opportunity to make a few hundred million from this project, what was the point of doing it? One must know that for this project, he had asked Shi Lei to cut off 20 million worth of his flesh. If he followed Tang Jiu's plan, he could only make 30 to 50 million at most.
"Miss Tang, I really didn't expect you to think so much for the people and the country." Deputy Bureau Chief Shi started to admire Tang Jiu. He had worked in the Bureau of Housing and Urban-Rural Development for so many years, but he had never seen such a developer.
"I'm also thinking for myself, Deputy Bureau Chief Shi. If I can't get anything from this project, I won't waste my efforts." Tang Jiu was very honest. "But while I can get fame and fortune, if I don't put the interests of the people first, then I'll be wrong. This kind of money, even if I earn it, will burn my hands."
In today's society, who would be afraid of burning their hands with too much money? Yang Zhen could not understand Tang Jiu's thoughts. He shook his head and said, "Miss Tang, I'm really not at your level. If you want to use this kind of method to compete, then I have no need to compete with you. You're giving up your interests to compete … This, this is called fair competition? "
"Whether or not you choose to give up your interests, it's your own choice. Of course, it's fair competition. " Deputy Bureau Chief Shi frowned. "And I think Miss Tang is right. It's really hot to make money from this kind of project."
Yang Zhen was speechless. He looked at the two unreasonable people and shook his head. "Sorry, I can't do that. If that's the case, I'll withdraw. Your Tang Corporation will take this project. Miss Tang, I can guarantee that you'll regret it … "
"I, Tang Jiu, have never regretted anything I do," Tang Jiu said coldly. "It's all thanks to Brother Lei that I can come here today. Mr. Yang, I know that Brother Lei was hired by you to stop me from entering the Bureau of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. But he got shot because he wanted me to come to the Bureau of Housing and Urban-Rural Development safely. I think you shouldn't be so calculative about some things. Otherwise, you and Huang Zhimo will be the same … "
Yang Zhen was stunned. Tang Jiu knew Shi Lei?! Shi Lei got shot because he wanted her to compete with him! What kind of medicine was Shi Lei selling in his gourd?
"The Brother Lei you're talking about is …?" Deputy Bureau Chief Shi was surprised.
Yang Zhen threw caution to the wind and admitted it. "He's your relative, Shi Lei. Deputy Bureau Chief Shi, I wanted to ask Brother Lei to help me connect with you, but he refused. He was afraid that he would ruin your reputation. But he owed me a favor, so he had no choice but to help me settle the matter. But now, it seems that the matter isn't settled. I'm even going to be arrested. Humph … what a joke! "
"Miss Tang, was he really shot?" Deputy Bureau Chief Shi asked with concern.
Tang Jiu nodded. It was obvious that they were relatives. "Yes, but Deputy Bureau Chief Shi, don't worry. It's only his shoulder. Luckily, my friend arrived in time and resolved the conflict. He should be in the hospital now. As long as the wound is treated in time, I believe that he won't be in any danger. "
"Deputy Bureau Chief Shi, Miss Tang, I withdraw. You should be able to settle this matter happily. As for me, I'll go to the hospital to visit Brother Lei. " Yang Zhen said unhappily, "No matter what, he got hurt because of me. I'm a man of principle."
"Director Yang …" Deputy Bureau Chief Shi said with difficulty, "Can you help me pass on a message?"
"Deputy Bureau Chief Shi … No, Bureau Chief Shi, Bureau Chief Tan will step down immediately. You'll be working under the bureau chief soon. If you have anything to say, just tell me." Yang Zhen said. "Although I can't do this, we'll definitely work together in the future. If you want to say anything to Brother Lei, I'll pass it on word for word. "
Deputy Bureau Chief Shi sighed. "Just tell him that I'm a little busy these days. I'll find time to visit him when I'm free. Since I know about this matter, he shouldn't hide it from me. I'll call him later. "
Yang Zhen nodded. "Then I'll leave. You guys can talk about the details."
Yang Zhen stood up and left with his men. When he said that he was going to the hospital to visit Brother Lei, he meant it. It wasn't just an excuse.
In fact, Tang Jiu was worried about Xu Yun. But Deputy Bureau Chief Shi was a serious person. If she didn't explain the matter clearly, she couldn't leave. Tang Jiu could only put down all her worries and discuss the affordable housing matter with Deputy Bureau Chief Shi in detail.
