"Take care, Brother Eric."
After lunch, Pei Qian reluctantly sent Eric off at the entrance of Ming House, a look of disappointment on his face.
The main thing was that now that Eric was gone, who else would be willing to burn money with him?
Pei Qian felt melancholy at the thought that Dayak Corporation might not play with him anymore in the future.
However, this melancholy had another meaning in Eric's eyes.
At that moment, Eric had already gotten into a taxi and was about to head to the high-speed rail station. He could not help but roll down the window and wave goodbye to Boss Pei like an old friend when he saw Boss Pei's expression.
"Indeed, Boss Pei and I still appreciate each other."
"This means that I have won his respect as an opponent."
Eric felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in his heart. It was a sense of pride to be acknowledged by a competitor.
He knew very well that he would probably have to shoulder the blame for IOI's failure with Dayak Corporation in the future.
At that time, when everyone talked about the past, they might say something like this: Dayak Corporation was short-sighted, buying the promising Finger Games but short-sightedly squeezing it dry, ultimately causing a company that had the potential to become a global giant to abruptly come to an abrupt end; Eric, who had parachuted in to be the person-in-charge of the Hua Xia region from Dayak Corporation, was the number one war criminal. With a series of dim-witted and god-like assistance, he had dragged down Finger Games and handed victory to them.
It was almost certain and unavoidable.
After all, it was impossible to know the intricacies of the business world if one was not in it. One would only simply attribute the failure to the ability of a certain person in charge.
Eric had already foreseen the infamy he would bear in advance, but so what?
His biggest opponent, Boss Pei, understood his value. Perhaps that was enough.
Eric watched Boss Pei leave with such a feeling. Then, he rolled up the window and prepared to return to Dayak Corporation's headquarters to welcome his and IOI's final fate.
Pei Qian felt even more melancholic as he watched Eric walk away.
According to the plot, it would be more appropriate to light a cigarette now. However, he did not know how to smoke so he decided against it.
From now on, he would have one less true good friend and brother.
To Pei Qian, his true brothers were all outside the company, with his competitors.
However, in recent years, there had been fewer and fewer competitors and good brothers.
What a sad story.
Pei Qian looked at his watch. It was already 1 PM.
It was about time to go back and take a nap.
Just as he got into the car, his phone rang.
"Hmm? Why is someone calling me again? "
"Who likes to work so much? It's a Monday. I've just sent my good brother away and I'm still grieving! "
"Oh, it's my mom. Then it's fine."
Pei Qian picked up the phone quietly. "Mom, what's wrong?"
His mother's slightly anxious voice came through the phone. "I called you a few days ago to ask you to buy a house in the old industrial zone. Have you bought it yet?"
Pei Qian was a little speechless. "Mom, why are you so anxious? It's only been a week, and you're rushing me again."
Mom: "I'm asking you if you bought it or not? You didn't buy it? "
Pei Qian, "… I bought it. I bought a 170-square-meter apartment in Auspicious Gardens."
His mother's voice rose an octave. "Auspicious Garden District?! Are you paying for the house in full or on loan? Where are the procedures? "
Pei Qian answered honestly, "Full payment. All the procedures have been completed, and I've already gotten the house. I just need to find time to renovate it. No, Mom, why are you asking in so much detail? "
His mother seemed to have put the phone aside and said to the person beside her, "I've bought it! I've bought it! It's a house in Auspicious Gardens District, 170 square meters in full, and I've got the house! "
Pei Qian: "Mom?"
Something did not seem right.
After a while, his mother spoke into the phone again. "Of course, I'm afraid that the seller will change his mind halfway through the procedures! You're busy with work and don't know, right? Jingzhou's new subway plan has been released! "
"I've always told you that you should listen to professionals like Boss Li when it comes to investments. He must know a lot of ways that ordinary people don't!"
"If he didn't know in advance that the subway line was going to be built, would he have bought buildings and shops there with such fanfare?"
Pei Qian's hand that was holding the phone froze. "Subway …?"
His mother said, "That's right! The new subway plan has just been released online, and there's a station next to Auspicious Gardens District! Now, this house can be considered a subway house. It's probably going to rise soon. "
"Tell me, if not for your mother's news, would you have been able to get such a good deal? Just go and be happy! "
Her tone was very proud.
Pei Qian felt that the situation was not good and quickly said, "Alright, Mom, I have to go and see what's going on. I'll hang up first!"
Pei Qian hurriedly went online to check after hanging up.
Indeed, he found an official document: 'Public Participation in Social Stability Risk Assessment of Jingzhou City Rail Transit Phase II Construction Plan'!
It said that the construction period was from 2012 to 2017, which meant that it would open in five years at the earliest.
There was also a specific route plan written.
There were a total of seven projects in the subway project this time. Some of them had little to do with Tengda's current industry, but a few were closely related to Tengda's current industry!
Pei Qian saw the plan for Subway Line 7 in the upper right corner of the map at a glance. The terminus was near Thriller Hostel!
Subway Line 7 was a right-angle folded line, a little like a mirror flipped '7'. The easternmost end went straight to Thriller Hostel and then extended west. It did not set up a station directly at the snack market. Instead, it set up a station at the intersection south of Auspicious Gardens District.
This station was a little far from the snack market and the snack street. It would take about three minutes to walk.
The reason why the station was set up here instead of directly at the snack market or the snack street might be because of the construction problem.
The subway construction took a long time. It would take five years to repair. If the station was set up directly at the snack street, it might affect the normal business. What's more, the shops there were more densely packed. It might not be convenient to repair.
It was moved slightly north to facilitate the construction. In the end, it was moved to the intersection near the south gate of Auspicious Gardens District.
After that, Subway Line 7 went west and south, connecting to the original Great Heaven and Earth Shopping Mall. However, there was an additional subway station exit at Jinsheng Square.
Great Heaven and Earth was originally connected to the high-speed railway station through Subway Line 2. That was equivalent to taking the high-speed railway south station and transferring to the snack market and Thriller Hostel.
Of course, it could also be connected to the airport express rail through other lines.
In addition, in the new route plan, Subway Line 4 in the south had an extension project. A new station was built in Ming Yun Villas.
Line 4 was also connected to Line 2 and could reach the high-speed railway south station.
In the future, there would be another option to take the subway from the various E-Sports Clubs to the high-speed railway station in addition to taking a bus.
These two lines were directly related to Tengda's industry, but there were also indirectly related ones.
Pei Qian had more or less deliberately avoided the existing subway lines when he chose the location for the various physical shops.
— — —
The new subway plan naturally had to be built where there was no subway. It was inevitable that they would bump into each other.
Many branches of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Fish-Catching Take-Out, Sloth Apartments, Deposit Fitness, and other physical industries had appeared along the new subway line.
He could not count how many there were.
"What the f * ck …"
Pei Qian fell into a daze. It was like being struck by lightning!
The subway might take five years to repair, but five years was not a particularly long time!
What's more, the Thriller Hostel and the snack market were connected to the subway. The transportation was more convenient. The shops in the snack market and a few buildings in the Sloth Apartments were affected by the subway line. The property prices would probably rise again. Fixed assets would probably soar during this settlement cycle!
Of course, it was not certain how much it would increase. He would only know during settlement.
However, the sharp increase in fixed assets meant that the upper limit of the amount of money that could be lost would be lower. A huge loss!
If he had to force himself to say good news …
The price of the houses in Auspicious Gardens should be rising.
However, there was only one house. How much could it rise? What's more, Pei Qian was planning to live in it. He had no intention of selling it.
Speaking of which, he really would not have bought this house if not for his mother's call.
What was this?
Pei Qian thought about this closed loop.
Li Shi had judged that the land price was going to rise because Tengda's snack market and Thriller Hostel were built near the old industrial zone and he had bought shops near the snack street;
His mother had heard 'insider information' from the employees of Fu Hui Investments. She felt that it was right to follow Boss Li, so she had called Pei Qian and asked him to buy a house there to invest;
Pei Qian had not thought about investing at first. He had bought a house near the snack market because he felt that it would be more livable for his parents.
The source of all this seemed to be Pei Qian himself.
The problem was that Pei Qian had never thought that this place would rise in value. He had never thought about the subway at all.
What was going to happen then?
All in all, this was double bad news!
His good brother Eric had just left, and the subway was about to be repaired.
One could imagine that GOG's income would probably increase explosively in the future, and the various physical industries in Jingzhou would probably be doomed …
Pei Qian could not help but be speechless. He even felt a little regretful.
If he had known, he would have bought more!
Projects like the snack market had been planned a few months in advance. It was too late to change them, but he had only bought the house a week ago.
What's more, Pei Qian had more than three million yuan now. He could buy two in full and sell one.
In that case, the money he would earn would probably be able to catch up with the money converted from the losses of the next settlement cycle …
'Investment genius' Boss Pei leaned back in his seat weakly and remained silent.
Uncomfortable!
