The Liu family's banquet did not end because of Li Dong.
When Chang Qiqi's father came to the banquet as a private guest, it set off a wave of excitement.
Hsu Shengzhe, Hu Ming, and the rest did not look too good. Clearly, they did not expect that the Chang family would really come.
Although the two families were in-laws, one was in the political path, the other was in the business path. There should be some taboos.
Who knew that the Chang family was not an ordinary person. As soon as he entered the door, he said that he was attending as a private guest. Immediately, everyone stopped talking.
After all, the other party was Chang Qiqi's father. Why would a father pick a time to visit his daughter?
Seeing that everyone was surrounding the other party like stars surrounding the moon, Hsu Shengzhe came over and whispered, "What should we do?"
"You're asking me?"
"Of course!"
Hsu Shengzhe said angrily, "Aren't you the host tonight? Everyone is looking at you now. If you can't make them lose their momentum tonight, Tanglong Group will officially gain a foothold in Jiangbei. "
"So be it. What are we afraid of?" Li Dong said disapprovingly.
Hsu Shengzhe stared at him and whispered, "Are you really stupid or just pretending?"
"I don't know what you mean." Li Dong laughed.
Hsu Shengzhe was embarrassed into anger. "Don't pretend! I don't believe you can't see that tonight is an opportunity. Now that they are on our side, if we offend them, we should offend them more. This way, everyone can make up their minds. Otherwise, if we miss tonight, it will take ten times more effort to bring everyone together! "
"What benefits do I get?"
"What other benefits do you want? Aren't these all benefits? You will become the leader of Jiangbei's business circle. Everyone will look up to you in the future … "
"I don't care about fame."
"You!"
Li Dong smiled faintly. "Give me something practical! Old Xu, we both know each other. Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? If you want me to help you kick the door open, you have to give me something real. "
Hsu Shengzhe frowned, "Then what do you want?"
"I'm not ambitious. This time, I'll help you settle everyone and make them decide to participate. But after it's done, you have to promise me something. "
"What condition?"
"We'll talk about it after we're done."
Hsu Shengzhe quickly shook his head and said, "No, either you say it now, or you don't have to. Even if you weren't here tonight, I would still be able to do what I want to do. At most, the process would be a little more complicated, but this isn't just about me. Don't you want to? "
"Then I'll tell you."
"Speak!"
"I want to use the Greenland Building to replace Longhua Square."
"Get lost!"
Hsu Shengzhe was enraged, "Dream on! My brain is flooded with water! "
Longhua Square was the number one commercial square in Pingchuan. It was very popular and famous, and it had also driven the development of Longhua Group.
Now, Li Dong wanted to use an office building to exchange for Longhua Square. Not to mention the other value, just the selling price alone was a world of difference.
If the Greenland Building was sold now, it would be worth at most 400 to 500 million.
But if Longhua Group was willing to sell Longhua Square, not to mention others might not be able to afford it, just the price alone would not be lower than 1 billion.
Hsu Shengzhe wanted to form an alliance, but he wouldn't be stupid enough to take such a big loss.
Li Dong saw many people looking over and coughed softly, "Don't be anxious, can you wait for me to finish? I naturally know how much Longhua Square is worth. You definitely won't agree to just a Greenland Building. I know this. "
"But what if there's an unopened community?"
"You mean Greenland's Xiwan Garden?"
"Yes, how about it? The value of Xiwan Garden isn't low, and it should be worth 500 to 600 million, right? Furthermore, Xiwan Garden is very close to your Longhua campus, and I heard that your Longhua campus is still planning to expand. Even if you don't sell the building, you can use it for your own use and save a lot of effort. "
"Not enough!"
"Then add another 100 million in cash!"
"Not enough!"
Hsu Shengzhe calmly said, "Longhua Square is not something that a Greenland Building and Xiwan Garden can replace. You know the meaning of this better than me!"
"Then, what other conditions do you have?"
"If I don't exchange, this matter will not pass the board of directors. Don't even think about it."
"There's no room for negotiation?"
Hsu Shengzhe looked at him for a while before saying, "There is!"
"Speak!"
"Aside from these, you still have to add the Greenland Building's land in the southern suburbs, 300 million in cash, and the name of Longhua Square cannot be changed!"
"Scram! Do you think I'm an idiot? That piece of land in the southern suburbs was worth at least 300 million, the Greenland Building was worth at least 500 million, and the Xiwan district was worth 500 million. That was already 1.3 billion. Adding the 300 million in cash, that was 1.6 billion! I've spent so much money, and Long Hua Square hasn't even changed its name? "
"You don't have to exchange, and this matter may not pass. I know what you mean. You want to transform Longhua Square into a large shopping mall Far away in Pingchuan to increase your competitiveness and reputation. If you want to get it, you have to pay the price. You know very well whether my conditions are good or not. Longhua Square is the brand of Longhua Group in Pingchuan. Once the name is changed, it will affect Longhua Group. Do you know how much impact it will have? "
"Don't talk to me about these additional impacts. As long as our alliance is successful, we are partners. Both sides will exchange some assets for their own strategic goals. This is human nature. Who would think otherwise? "
"This matter is not up to you."
Li Dong frowned. "That means there is no room for negotiation?"
"The conditions are here. If you can negotiate, then let's negotiate. I can't possibly use Longhua's assets to satisfy your strategic development."
Li Dong sighed and said, "You disappoint me too much. You are not sincere in doing this. How can I continue to cooperate with you in the future?"
Hsu Shengzhe sneered and was too lazy to reply.
This guy always likes to use righteousness to pressure others. Feng Yu did not believe his nonsense.
Cooperation is cooperation, and it is not like Li Dong does not have any benefits. Listening to him now, it seems like Li Dong is doing this for his own good.
Seeing that Feng Yu did not fall for the trap, Li Dong said helplessly, "The price is too high. I will not agree to this condition even if you force me to death. How about this, I will waive the 300 million in cash and give you the land in the southern suburbs. You just have to give me 100 million. "
"You really dare to think. Do I look like I was kicked in the head by a donkey?"
"Then forget about the 100 million. Just 50 million will do."
"Don't play with me like this. This is the condition. At most, your 300 million in cash will be reduced by a little. 10 million less is me giving you face. As for the rest, don't even dream about it."
"10 million? Do you think I am a beggar?"
Hsu Shengzhe sneered. "Since you are so rich, why don't you try giving me 10 million? I don't care about the money. Give it to me, and I don't mind being a beggar. "
Hsu Shengzhe said and reminded Feng Yu. "If you don't act now, the banquet will end soon. If tonight's matter fails, I think we don't have to talk anymore. If the alliance fails, the possibility of our cooperation will be greatly reduced. If we don't cooperate, don't even think about the Longhua Square. If the alliance succeeds, we can still talk about the Longhua Square. What do you think? "
Hsu Shengzhe's words are true. Once the alliance fails, both parties will be competitors.
Xu Jianghua and Hsu Shengzhe aren't stupid. Will they support their enemy?
Only if the alliance succeeds, both parties can still talk. After all, everyone will be looking at the big picture. They won't trip each other up just because of the gains and losses of a city or a place.
Seeing this, Li Dong said helplessly, "Then I'll be your spear today. You have to remember this favor."
"Alright, alright. I got it. Is it fun to keep doing this?"
Hsu Shengzhe said perfunctorily. This guy always takes advantage of me and still acts like a good boy.
Li Dong can't hide some things from him. For example, Hsu Shengzhe can roughly guess how Li Dong is going to counterattack later.
However, this guy pretends to be forced. It makes Hsu Shengzhe furious. Can't he have some face?!
…
Chang Yuanshan was chatting with everyone. At this moment, Liu Long came to him and said in a low voice, "Li Dong is here."
Chang Yuanshan focused his eyes and saw a young man walking over slowly from the periphery of the crowd.
When the others saw Li Dong coming, they subconsciously opened up a path.
Upon seeing this scene, Chang Yuanshan immediately took a look at Li Donggao.
Li Dong didn't say a word and people automatically opened up a path. This is the embodiment of status. Clearly, Li Dong's status in Jiangbei's business world wasn't low.
Seeing his daughter staring at Li Dong with a face full of hatred and preparing to speak to him, Chang Yuanshan lightly waved his hand and stopped her from speaking.
For him to be able to reach this step, he naturally understood what it means to be biased.
His daughter clearly had some dissatisfaction towards Li Dong. Chang Yuanshan did not wish to label Li Dong because of his daughter. These would affect his subjective judgment.
Li Dong walked in along the path. Once he saw Chang Yuanshan, he said with a face full of smiles, "Governor Chang, I really didn't think that you would come here tonight. Look at me, I'm so happy that I'm muddle-headed. I don't know what to say either."
As he said, Li Dong reached out both hands and shook Chang Yuanshan's hand with force.
Seeing his agitated appearance, the corners of the others' mouths involuntarily twitched. The speed at which this guy's face changed was really fast.
Chang Yuanshan also found it a little funny and said helplessly, "General Manager Li, my arms and legs are old. I can't withstand your enthusiasm."
"Ah!"
Li Dong immediately had an awkward look and said, "You see, I was too presumptuous. Governor Chang, please don't take offense."
"What's there to take offense for? General Manager Li's actions let me see the enthusiasm of the people of Jiangbei. This is the greatest affirmation for me. I should be happy instead."
The two of them exchanged a few polite words. Chang Yuanshan and Li Dong chatted for a while. Seeing this guy deliberately revealing an expression of wanting to say something but hesitating, Chang Yuanshan immediately understood that this guy probably had something to say.
Although he could pretend that he could not see it, Chang Yuanshan still took this step and asked with a smile, "General Manager Li, do you have something to say?"
"Governor Chang's eyes are like a torch. As expected, nothing can be hidden from you."
Li Dong had a face of embarrassment as he flattered and said with a smile, "I'm a little hesitant on whether I should say this on this occasion. After all, this is Director Liu's banquet. If I say something, it will seem like a noisy guest overtaking the host. "
"General Manager Li, you can say it. I think Old Liu won't mind."
Liu Long, who was at the side, said with a smile, "General Manager Li, just say what you have to say. I'm getting anxious looking at you like this. If there's anything good, share it and let us be happy too."
"Then I'll really say it?"
Li Dong pretended for a while and explained, "Because Governor Chang, aren't you in charge of the province's finance? I thought that this is considered a happy event, so I mentioned it to you tonight to let Governor Chang be happy. At the same time, Governor Chang can also have a simple understanding of our Far Away. After all, Far Away will be under Governor Chang's management in the future. I still want the province to give us some support."
Li Dong said half-jokingly. Chang Yuanshan also said half-jokingly, "Tonight, we're only talking about private matters and not business. But since General Manager Li said it, then I'll listen. As for support, as an outstanding private enterprise in Jiangbei, Far Away will definitely be valued by the province. "
"Thank you, Governor Chang."
Li Dong laughed and then said casually, "It's like this. Just now, I reached a verbal agreement with Pengfei Real Estate's CEO Wang. Far Away's Dong Yu Real Estate will be acquiring the controlling stake of Pengfei Real Estate. Tonight, I want Governor Chang to be our witness. Dong Yu Real Estate's production capacity has increased, and it's all under Governor Chang's leadership … "
Li Dong tried his best to flatter Chang Yuanshan, as if without Chang Yuanshan, this acquisition wouldn't be completed.
But at this moment, everyone's attention wasn't on this. Even Chang Yuanshan's attention wasn't on this.
They were paying attention to the first half of Li Dong's sentence. Dong Yu Real Estate will be acquiring Pengfei Real Estate!
The acquisition also meant that Pengfei Real Estate will be under Far Away's management in the future.
The word controlling stake explained everything.
When a group controls another company, then this company can be treated as a subsidiary of the group.
Far Away had only acquired Greenland a few days ago. Now, they actually acquired Pengfei Real Estate. Everyone was a little confused.
Where did he get the money?
Why would Wang Pengfei agree?
Did the situation in the real estate industry change again?
What was the purpose of Li Dong's announcement tonight?
Far Away, is he going to enter the real estate industry?
…
With these puzzles, doubts, and even more shock, the originally lively hall suddenly quietened down.
Chang Yuanshan was also stunned. There were some things he knew.
His in-law had said long ago that he wanted to invest in Pengfei Real Estate. But now that the situation had changed so much, it was beyond his expectations.
Glancing at Liu Long, Chang Yuanshan saw his in-law's face was as gloomy as water. His daughter and son-in-law also looked like they wanted to eat someone up. He instantly realized what Li Dong was trying to do.
Sighing in his heart, Chang Yuanshan seemed to realize something. Just as he was about to speak, Li Dong suddenly patted his head and said, "Oh right, Governor Chang, there's something I almost forgot to say."
Chang Yuanshan said without batting an eyelid, "General Manager Li, continue."
"It's like this. I've discussed with Longhua's CEO Xu. We want to establish a Jiangbei Mutual Aid Association. The main purpose is to provide some insignificant help to our Jiangbei enterprises. Nanrui's CEO Hu and Jinding's CEO Ji have also joined. But because this is a private association, we're afraid that it won't be effective. So we want to invite Governor Chang to participate in our association's establishment ceremony to cheer us up. Governor Chang, do you think this is appropriate? "
Chang Yuanshan's expression didn't change, as if he didn't see other people's faces change. He smiled and said, "This is a good thing. As long as a non-governmental organization complies with the law and the market rules, we will definitely support it. As for participating in the establishment ceremony, I can't give you an accurate answer yet. After all, my time isn't my own to decide. How about this, when the time comes, General Manager Li, send me an invitation. As long as time permits, I will go. What do you think? "
"Good, good, good. Thank you, Governor Chang."
Li Dong's face was full of gratitude. Not far away, Hu Ming and the rest looked at each other.
This little bastard acted first and reported later, right?!
Although Hsu Shengzhe had revealed this intention, no one had given a clear answer.
Now, Li Dong said this in front of so many people, as if it was a foregone conclusion. This wasn't the result they wanted.
Hu Ming, Ji Yuanzhong, and the rest looked at each other and frowned.
They couldn't deny this matter now. After all, when they entered the door, their attitude indicated that Li Dong was the one in charge tonight.
If they denied it now, wouldn't they be slapping their own faces?
Hu Ming sighed softly and said in a low voice, "If they want to pull us on board, they have to see what price they have to pay. Otherwise, it's the same whether we join the mutual aid association or not. There's no difference in having more members. What do you think?"
Ji Yuanzhong nodded slightly and said, "That makes sense. These two brats want to force us. This trick isn't enough."
"Old ginger is spicier. They're still too inexperienced," Hu Ming said with a smile.
Hu Ming said with a smile. Although he looked like he didn't care, he was cursing in his heart.
Could it really not affect them at all?
Looking at Chang Yuanshan and Liu Long's expressions, it was obvious that these two had already considered them as one.
In their opinion, without Hu Ming, Ji Yuanzhong, and the rest's approval, Li Dong wouldn't dare to speak carelessly in front of everyone.
However, they had underestimated Li Dong. This fellow really spoke carelessly!
What mutual aid association? This was all nonsense, but this fellow said it as if it was the truth. What else could they say?
The few old seniors felt terrible as if they had eaten sh * t, but they couldn't show it. At this moment, there was no need to mention how depressed they were.
And in the middle of the crowd, Li Dong didn't look at them either. He smiled and greeted the others, then invited others to join as well, as if it was really just to strengthen the association's reputation.
As for whether the association existed or not, no one questioned it at this time.
As for tonight's main character, Liu Long, he had already been thrown to the back of everyone's mind.
So far away, he had acquired Pengfei Real Estate, and the leaders of several private enterprises in Jiangbei had jointly established a mutual aid association. Which of these matters wasn't more important than this banquet?
Moreover, Li Dong was still inviting them to join. Many people were tempted, thinking about whether they should go back and understand this association. At this time, no one cared about Liu Long.
Seeing this, Li Dong revealed a smile and winked at Hsu Shengzhe.
Hsu Shengzhe's face darkened. Li Dong's move was really out of his expectations!
This fellow was too daring!
How could he say such things so casually? Did he really think that Hu Ming and the rest were easy to provoke? If he provoked their rebellious mentality, wouldn't it be adding more trouble?
Glaring at him fiercely, Hsu Shengzhe's face darkened. He didn't want to say a word.
