In the blink of an eye, it was late June.
June 25th. There were only five days left before the land auction.
In the past few days, Li Dong had interviewed many people. However, most of them were mediocre. There were very few people who could really make Li Dong's eyes light up.
Or rather, it was not few, but none at all.
Far away was not in the real estate industry. Although Far Away was quite famous, the real elites in the real estate industry did not really think much of Far Away.
Li Dong did not reveal much about Cheng Rui during the interview.
In the eyes of outsiders, Li Dong was looking for people in the real estate industry because he had plans to get involved in the real estate industry Far Away.
However, plans were plans. Since the real estate industry had picked up, there were too many people who wanted to get into real estate. Most big companies had this plan.
The key was that plans could not keep up with changes. In the end, there were only a few companies that could do it.
Many companies did a lot of publicity work in the early stages. They poached people and set up new departments. However, in the end, it was either the plan was aborted early or the business was not managed well. The company suffered heavy losses and had no choice but to stop.
For companies, this was just a trial. It was just a matter of saying a word to stop the project.
However, for those who were poached, it was a bolt from the blue.
Because they definitely could not go back to their old employer. If the new employer closed down, they naturally could not continue working.
Now, they had to find a new job. Not only was it a waste of time, but it was also bad for their reputation. Changing jobs in a short period of time was definitely a taboo for large companies.
This also caused the elites in various industries to be very vigilant. Unless it was absolutely necessary or the other party's offer was too tempting, they would not easily change jobs under normal circumstances.
Among the people interviewed by Li Dong, there were almost no elites in the industry. Most of them were people who had failed in the competition.
The reason why these people came to Far Away was just to take a chance.
Anyway, they had failed before. Far Away's production could not start, so it did not affect them much.
If Far Away's real estate fell through, it would not affect them much. However, if it succeeded, they would have made the right bet.
For these speculators, Li Dong naturally looked down on them.
After looking around, Li Dong also had a headache. In the end, he had no choice but to say to Shen Qian, "Let your friend try. If she is really as capable as you said, I will not care about her temper."
At this time, ability and temper were obviously more important.
Cheng Rui Real Estate had to take over the project before the auction, or else it would be hard to explain in the future.
Although Zhang Lanyu had no intention of going back on her words, there was no knowing what was in a person's heart. If Li Dong really bought the land and the price rose next year, would Zhang Lanyu still be as carefree as she was now?
Although Li Dong was only measuring the heart of a gentleman with his own mean measure, in order to avoid future disputes, the best choice was naturally to hand over the company before the auction.
Hearing that Li Dong was finally going to meet her friend, Shen Qian said indignantly, "I told you to meet her long ago, but you just had to delay it until now. Even if you meet her now, are you sure you can get everything done in five days? "
"What's the hurry? I'm not asking him to take office now. I'm not going to do any big projects at Cheng Rui for the time being. I'll buy the land for a while first. "
"Suit yourself. By the way, can you change the name? Cheng Rui, Cheng Rui sounds really awkward, "Shen Qian suggested.
Li Dong nodded and thought for a while, "How about Dongfang Real Estate?"
"Vulgar!"
"How about Donglai Real Estate?"
"Too vulgar!"
"Dongdong Real Estate?"
Shen Qian couldn't help but say, "Can you not be so narcissistic? Why do you have to use the word 'Dong'?"
Li Dong was about to speak when his phone rang.
Looking at the number, Li Dong suddenly said, "Then call it Dongyu Real Estate!"
Shen Qian frowned and asked, "Dongyu? Qin Yuhan's rain? It doesn't seem appropriate for a real estate company to have 'rain'. "
"Then call it Dongyu Real Estate. It sounds high-end and classy!"
Li Dong made the final decision and didn't allow Shen Qian to refute. He quickly picked up the phone.
Li Dong smiled after talking to the phone for a while.
Shen Qian waited for him to hang up and said calmly, "Did Qin Yuhan call you?"
Li Dong nodded with a smile, "Yes, the exam at the Capital University is over. Yuhan will be back tomorrow or the day after."
Shen Qian forced a smile and stood up, "Then I'll inform my friend. You'll meet tomorrow morning, but it's better not to meet in the company. Find a more casual place to meet. It'll be bad if the conversation fails."
Li Dong was also afraid that she wouldn't give him face, so he replied, "Okay, then let's meet in the Dongyu Village."
"You really know how to live your life. You don't forget to take care of your own business."
Shen Qian smiled and joked. She didn't stay in the office for a long time. She turned around and left the office.
Chen Ke, who had just taken office, saw Shen Qian go out. She was about to greet her, but she saw that Shen Qian's smile suddenly disappeared. She didn't look at her and walked away in a hurry.
…
The next day.
Li Dong didn't go to the company in the morning. Instead, he went to the Dongyu Village with Li Chengyuan.
The fishing village had been open for nearly a month. During this time, the business had been good. Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang were happy all day long.
When going out, Li Dong found that he had neglected something.
Looking at Li Chengyuan who got in his car, Li Dong asked, "Dad, do you usually take a taxi to the restaurant?"
Before Li Chengyuan spoke, Cao Fang said, "Why do you take a taxi? It's just a few stops away. You can take the bus. If you get up early in the morning, you can also exercise by walking. "
Li Dong thought for a moment and said to Li Chengyuan, "Dad, you and Mom go to get a driver's license. When you get the driver's license, I will buy you a car."
His parents actually took the bus to work, which made Li Dong feel very guilty.
He hadn't thought of it before. If they hadn't gone out together today, Li Dong really wouldn't have thought of it.
Although it was related to his busy work during this period, it also showed that he cared less about his parents recently.
Since Li Chengyuan and Cao Fang went to the hospital for a physical examination every month, Li Dong didn't care about them as much as before.
Now that he thought about it, it was completely wrong.
Hearing that Li Dong said that he would help them buy a car, Cao Fang quickly said, "Your father and I are so old. We don't need to drive a car. It's quite good to take the bus. It's safe and affordable. Don't waste this money. "
Li Dong nodded and said, "Okay, you don't have to learn it yourself. I will arrange for someone to drive for you later."
"That's not okay!"
Cao Fang was about to refuse, but Li Dong interrupted, "It's settled. Why don't you learn to drive yourself? I will buy a car for you. Or I will arrange for someone to drive for you. It's the same anyway. "
Hearing Li Dong's determination, Cao Fang had no choice but to look at Li Chengyuan.
Li Chengyuan didn't say anything. When Cao Fang looked over, he said, "Buy it. If you don't want to learn, I will."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Fang scolded, "I knew that an old man like you would definitely want to buy a car! You're almost fifty years old. Why do you want to buy a car? Li Chengyuan, let me tell you, there's no way you can drive. I will learn it myself later. You are not allowed to learn to drive! "
Li Dong, who was next to him, couldn't hold back his laughter. As soon as he laughed, Li Chengyuan glared at him with a black face.
Li Dong rubbed his face and barely restrained his smile. He said to Cao Fang, "Mom, you and Dad should go learn. Driving alone will always be tiring. If you and Dad learn it, it will be easier to change shifts in the future, right? When you are free one day, you two can drive on a road trip and relax. It's also good. "
With Li Dong's interruption, Cao Fang didn't trouble Li Chengyuan anymore. Instead, she talked to Li Dong about the trivial matters of the restaurant.
…
After sitting in the restaurant for about half an hour, Shen Qian and her friend arrived.
To be honest, Li Dong had always thought that the friend Shen Qian was talking about was a man. However, when he saw two women enter the door, Li Dong knew that he had misunderstood.
However, it didn't matter if they were men or women, as long as they were capable.
When the two of them entered the private room, Li Dong stood up and asked them to sit down.
Just as he was about to say a few opening words, Shen Qian's friend said, "First of all, let me introduce myself. My name is Wu Shengnan. As my name suggests, I have always been the target of many men. You don't have to look at me with colored glasses. Women can hold up half the sky. You can completely treat me as a man at work. "
Li Dong's mouth moved. He looked at Shen Qian and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
I haven't even said anything. Which eye of yours saw me discriminating against you?
A troublemaker was indeed a troublemaker. She had just entered the door and she was already giving me a show of strength. No wonder she had changed so many jobs in just a few years.
Li Dong took a deep breath. Just as he was about to say something to suppress the other party, Wu Shengnan said again, "You don't need to introduce yourself. I know you. Li Dong, the chairman of Far away Company, a celebrity in the business world of Jiangbei. He had been in the retail industry before, but now he is preparing to enter the real estate industry. Let me guess your purpose of entering the real estate industry. Do you agree? "
Li Dong let out a breath and said with a faint smile, "Then tell me. I want to hear it."
"There should be three reasons. First, I am optimistic about the future of the real estate industry. I feel that the housing prices will continue to rise."
"Second, I want to diversify. Far away's current supermarket business is too monotonous. It is better to walk on two legs than to walk on one leg. It can reduce the business risk."
"Third …"
When she said the third reason, Wu Shengnan paused for a moment and continued, "It should be to take revenge! Outsiders think that you have given up, but I guess you are preparing to compete with Longhua. "
Li Dong smiled and said faintly, "These are all superficial phenomena. The three points that you mentioned aren't strange at all. If this is what you said to me today, I can only say sorry. "
The above three reasons were indeed not surprising, and there was nothing worth praising.
Wu Shengnan had underestimated Li Dong if she expected him to be moved by these few things.
Li Dong did not like such a domineering female subordinate. He wanted to speak a few times, but Wu Shengnan interrupted him. This was the first time they met, and Li Dong does not want to be forced to change his leader in the future.
Wu Shengnan smiled and said, "Of course, I did not expect General Manager Li to welcome me with just these few words."
"But before we continue, I need to state my request. If not, we can go our separate ways after dinner."
Li Dong smiled and said, "Go ahead."
"First, I want authority. I heard from Qianqian about Dong Yu Real Estate. If I join, I will have the final say in Dong Yu Real Estate. Unless it is absolutely necessary, you cannot interfere. "
Li Dong took a deep look at her and nodded. "Sure!"
"Second, other than you, no one else can interfere with Dong Yu Real Estate's management."
"Okay!"
Li Dong did not hesitate on this point. Dong Yu Real Estate is his private company. Far away cannot interfere.
In fact, even if it is a subsidiary company Far away, no one will interfere.
Just like the current Far away, Li Dong's words carry weight. Sun Tao may be a shareholder, but in fact, everything Far Away is decided by Li Dong.
Li Dong readily agreed to the first two conditions, and Wu Shengnan was also very satisfied.
Then Wu Shengnan said, "Third, salary. I don't want a salary. I want 1% shares."
Li Dong frowned. "Dong Yu Real Estate is not profitable now, and it may not be profitable in the future. You want shares because you are optimistic about Dong Yu Real Estate and yourself. But if there is no income for a few years, you will have zero income. Under such circumstances, are you sure you still have the energy to invest in the company? "
1% shares is actually not too much. Moreover, shares do not represent equity. Li Dong did not have any thoughts on this.
However, he felt that Wu Shengnan is overconfident. Other than the reborn Li Dong, who can guarantee that Dong Yu Real Estate will be profitable?
Even if it is profitable, Wu Shengnan's dividends will only be about 10,000 yuan.
As for the general manager of Dong Yu Real Estate, even without shares, his annual salary will not be less than 300,000 yuan. To earn 300,000 yuan, Dong Yu's annual profit must not be less than 30 million yuan.
Before knowing how much Li Dong had invested and the details of Dong Yu Real Estate, Wu Shengnan had put forward this condition. She was a gambler.
In fact, Li Dong does not like this kind of person. This kind of person will either soar to the sky in one go or fall to the bottom for the rest of their life.
The fall is too big, and the contrast is too big.
Li Dong preferred to have everything under his control. Wu Shengnan's character is not compatible with him.
Once Li Dong agrees to Wu Shengnan's third condition, coupled with the first two conditions, Wu Shengnan will often choose to take risks and be radical for the sake of benefits.
And for a person in control like Li Dong, this is the situation he is most afraid of.
He would rather take it slow and steady than to be radical and incur huge losses.
Seeing Li Dong frown, Wu Shengnan chuckled. "General Manager Li does not even have the guts to take a gamble? If that is the case, then forget what I said before. Slow as a tortoise. Could Dong Yu Real Estate catch up with Long Hua? Longhua has been in Jiangbei for many years. It is almost impossible to expect them to catch up with Longhua. If General Manager Li does not want to be shut out in the future, I think Dong Yu Real Estate cannot take the easy route. When it is time to take risks, we must take risks. "
Speaking of this, Wu Shengnan added, "And I think General Manager Li and I are quite similar. Isn't the acquisition of Times risky? In my opinion, General Manager Li is actually more radical than me. This is also the reason why I came to see you. Otherwise, even with Qianqian as a bridge, I will not talk to you so much. "
Li Dong did not know whether to laugh or cry. You came to see me because of me?
If it was not because I could not find anyone, do you think I would come to see you?
