Li Dong's conditions were hard for everyone to accept.
The price aside, Li Dong still wants to keep half of the properties, and this was the most intolerable condition.
They were willing to take over Li Dong's properties. Making money was one reason, and the other reason was to block the available properties in the market.
But Li Dong wanted to keep half of the properties, and that would be more than 4,000 properties.
Currently, if there were so many low-priced properties in the market, the impact on their properties would be the same.
Yao Hong and the rest were unhappy that they had spent money and taken risks, and they still could not achieve their desired goals.
The negotiations were in a deadlock again. Li Dong refused to give in, and Yao Hong and the rest also refused to give in.
Seeing both sides were about to leave, Hsu Shengzhe said. "Old Li, why don't you take a step back? Even if you are not in the real estate business, the real estate industry is not just about properties. Not all of your supermarkets are bought, and many of them are rented.
"Now, everyone is not willing to take drastic measures. Why don't you ask yourself how many properties are owned by all of you?"
Li Dong stared at him. This bastard is doing this on purpose!
Li Dong had treated what he said earlier as Li Dong cooperating with him. Now, Li Dong mentioned this issue, and it was obvious that he was exposing Li Dong's shortcomings.
How can Li Dong not know if Yao Hong and the rest owned the properties of Faraway Supermarket's stores?
Yao Hong and the rest also know?
But why didn't they mention it? It was still the same saying. In the business world, it was all about benefits.
Faraway Supermarket's business was booming, and it had brought more people to their shopping malls. These people were the capital for future appreciation.
Who doesn't have a scale in their heart? Everyone knew how to calculate, and these two things were not compatible.
Everyone had ignored this issue before, and now, Hsu Shengzhe mentioned it. This was obviously putting Li Dong in a difficult position.
Seeing Li Dong staring at him, Hsu Shengzhe's eyes moved slightly, and he showed a calm expression.
Seeing this, Li Dong snorted and did not say anything else.
The others couldn't pretend to be deaf and mute at this time. As soon as Hsu Shengzhe finished speaking, someone in the crowd said, "That's right, General Manager Li. Faraway Supermarket has rented three storefronts under my banner, and the contract is about to expire. If you do this now, when the contract expires, will we still dare to rent to you? "
Li Dong said disapprovingly, "Don't try to scare me. When the contract expires, who knows? You might be willing to rent it, but I'm not! If I have money, I can't rent a storefront anywhere. If I really can't, I'll just buy it. Don't tell me that all the houses in Jiangbei belong to you? I can't be bothered to argue with you about this. Don't talk about these useless things. As I said, real estate is real estate. Everything else is a different matter. Is it useful to threaten me with these shameful things? "
"General Manager Li, you can't say that. Your conditions are too high, and we can't accept it. Not to mention keeping half of the property, you want us to pay the full amount in cash. You are also a businessman. Don't tell me you don't know what it means to have so much cash. With so much cash, we can build three or four residential areas the size of yours without a problem. "
"Then you build it yourself. I'm not stopping you."
"… …"
Both sides argued for a while. Seeing that Li Dong was not budging, Yao Hong took a deep breath and rested for a while before saying, "Li Dong, don't talk about these useless things. We can't agree to your conditions. Let's change the plan. We won't talk about the price. It's impossible to pay the full amount in cash. The down payment is 30% at most. Also, if you really want to keep half of the property, that's fine too. But the price must be higher. Otherwise, there's no need to talk anymore. You can't scare us with your harsh words, Li Dong. We are all here to make a living, and it's not easy for us. If you want to destroy our jobs, then let's flip the table. Let me tell you, when people are cornered, they can do anything. Don't force us! "
Li Dong sneered, "What? Are you threatening me? Are you going to destroy me? I'll remember this. Yao Hong, if something happens to me, you won't be able to escape! You can't beat me in the right way, so you want to play dirty? There are many people here, and everyone heard what you said! I, Li Dong, am not a nobody. If you want to play this trick with me, then you better be prepared to lose your life! "
Yao Hong glanced at him and snorted, "It's all your own imagination. Don't splash dirty water on my head! You, Li Dong, are arrogant and despotic. You have offended many people. Who knows if you will fail one day? Do you think I have to be responsible for your safety?
Besides, I, Yao Hong, am old. I have enjoyed all kinds of glory and wealth.
Don't say these things to scare me. Even if I fail now, it's not a loss. What about you?
Li Dong, leave a way out. When I was your age, I was brave and ruthless. But after suffering a few times, I know that being brave and ruthless won't solve the problem.
How many years have you been in power?
Now that you have offended all the seniors in the industry, can you guarantee that you will have a smooth life in the future?
As your senior in the business world, I, Old Yao, will give you a word of advice today. Know when to stop!
Don't be too greedy. Greed will kill you! "
Li Dong sneered, "I'll give these words to you, an old senior. I don't need you to lecture me. I, Li Dong, naturally have my own way of doing things!"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, the others started to persuade them.
Hsu Shengzhe also said, "Everyone is angry now. Why don't we take a break first and talk later? Old Li, let's go out and talk for a while. Don't be so angry. We can talk about it. "
Lu Zhanpeng heard this and quickly said, "Yes, yes, yes. Chairman Xu, you should persuade General Manager Li. Longhua is the industry leader in Jiangbei. It's time for Longhua to say something. Otherwise, the industry will be in chaos. It won't be good for anyone. "
Hsu Shengzhe smiled and said, "I don't dare to represent Longhua. Forget it. Let's not talk about this. Old Li, let's go out and get some fresh air."
Li Dong glanced at him and said nothing. He stood up and walked out.
Hsu Shengzhe laughed and followed him out.
The others in the guest room also started to discuss in low voices. They were discussing whether Li Dong's conditions were feasible.
…
After leaving the guest room, Li Dong turned a corner and entered a small meeting room.
Hsu Shengzhe followed him in. The moment he sat down, Li Dong said angrily, "Are you here to cause trouble?"
Hsu Shengzhe laughed and said, "Don't worry. You are too hot-tempered. Let's talk about it. If you continue to talk like this, it will collapse. It's not worth it. "
"What's more, isn't our plan going well now? Yao Hong took the initiative to take over your building, which is in line with our plan. Why are you so angry?"
Li Dong frowned and said, "It is in line with your plan. It has nothing to do with me. If I agree to their conditions, I will earn a lot of money. But how can I explain it to the public? If I don't sell any of the 8,000 properties, my reputation will be ruined tomorrow. It sounds nice to say that we are doing business in secret and no one will know. But I can guarantee that if I reach an agreement with Yao Hong today, the whole of Jiangbei will know that I sold the properties to them tomorrow. Who will pay for me? You can trick others, but don't try to trick me. I am not that stupid! "
Hsu Shengzhe did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Look at what you are saying. Can you not be so defensive? Do I need to trick you? I have not finished. Why are you in such a hurry? Can't you just listen to me? "
Li Dong took out a cigarette and lit it. After taking a puff, he said, "Go ahead."
"We cannot give all the properties to Yao Hong. You still need to keep half …"
"Nonsense! The problem is they will not agree! "
Hsu Shengzhe was speechless. "Can you listen to me first? Don't interrupt!"
"Fine. Go on. I want to see what you have to say."
"Yao Hong and the rest will not agree to let you keep the properties. But you can just raise the price."
Seeing Li Dong was about to interrupt again, Hsu Shengzhe did not want to keep him in suspense. "You must raise the price. If not, Yao Hong and the rest will not let you off. But if you raise the price on the surface, you can secretly make up for it. For example, if you sell the properties to 5,500 RMB per square meter, you can give some preferential policies. You can pay the full amount, or you can refund the deed tax and stamp tax. Or you can organize some large-scale events. Anyway, the properties will not change, and everyone will not spend that much money. This way, you will be able to answer to both sides. Yao Hong and the rest will not stop you from organizing the events, right? Moreover, they haven't thought of this yet. Actually, it doesn't matter how much the price of the house is set. The buyers also know how to calculate the actual amount of money they spent on the house. Don't tell me that they don't have an account in their hearts?
"But I said before … …"
Xu Shengzhe was speechless. "You took it seriously. Didn't I already say that as long as we get the house prices in August, it will be fine. Who can still find fault with me? As for the others, why bother with them? You need to look at the big picture when doing business. It's pointless to hold on to such trivial matters. "
Li Dong raised his eyebrows and began to ponder.
After a while, Li Dong said, "Alright, let's not talk about this for now. I still have a problem. Say, if I reach an agreement with Yao Hong and the others, Yao Hong and the others will spread the news that I sold them the houses. At that time, there will definitely be fluctuations in the market. Even if I keep four thousand houses, it might not be enough. If I sell too few properties, it might boost Yao Hong and the rest's momentum. If the property prices do not fall, what will happen to us? "
Hsu Shengzhe rubbed his chin and did not say anything. Li Dong's eyes lit up. "Don't you have a residential area in Longhua? It is not far from my area. Why don't you give it to me? Although your area is not big, there are still 2,000 to 3,000 properties. Give it to me, and it should be enough to meet the market demand."
Xu Shengzhe's eyes suddenly widened. After a long while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, you've been waiting for me here!"
