Chapter 424 - 424 Have a Death Wish!
424 Have a Death Wish!
Xie Xiaohong glanced at Chen Yun and spoke to Tian Yungui.
Tian Yungui shook his head.
He had drunk too much just now and was acting crazy. He did not know who he had provoked.
Moreover, even if he saw Chen Yun, he would probably not be able to recognize him.
“This is Director Chen. Do you understand?” Xie Xiaohong looked down at Tian Yungui and chuckled. He believed that he had heard of Director Chen.
Director Chen?
When the onlookers heard this, they could not remain calm.
Of course, they knew Xie Xiaohong, the manager of the Jiang Bin Corporation’s branch in Jiangbei. Xie Xiaohong’s words were very credible, making everyone uneasy.
He was Director Chen from Jiangbei.
They were just famous real estate developers in Jiangbei.
Real estate was just one of the things they were involved in.
However, they could do very well in this industry and become leaders of the industry. This was admirable.
The guests looked at Chen Yun with respect.
“Director Chen, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I was drunk and crazy just now. I hope you won’t blame me. Just treat me as a fart and let me go. It’s better than not letting me go.”
Tian Yungui hurriedly knelt in front of Chen Yun and spoke in fear.
Chen Yun narrowed his eyes at him.
“Alright, if I don’t forgive you, it’ll make me look petty again. Get lost.”
Chen Yun spoke to this guy.
However, when he thought of Tian Yungui’s call just now, he wanted to laugh. This guy would probably be beaten up when he returned home. Chen Yun looked at Tian Yungui pitifully.
Other than this small interlude, the entire banquet was very interesting.
Xie Xiaohong had been staying beside Chen Yun, causing many people to be jealous. However, these guys did not dare to show it on the surface. They raised their wine glasses and greeted Chen Yun.
“Could it be that Mr. Chen is here to participate in this bidding?”
Xie Xiaohong sized up Chen Yun in confusion.
“Didn’t the higher-ups say that they wanted to bid for a piece of land recently? My friend and I have a construction company that wants to bid for this piece of land.”
Chen Yun sighed.
He scanned the people in the banquet hall.
It was crowded.
He could not tell how many elites and big shots in the construction industry were here.
However, Chen Yun knew very well that it was absolutely impossible for them to obtain this piece of land so easily. It was very likely that the 10 million yuan he had estimated previously was far from enough. He even had to pay more.
He sighed. He did not expect so many people to bid for the land this time.
“I see. If Mr. Chen has any difficulties, you can tell me.”
Xie Xiaohong took out a piece of paper and wrote her private phone number on it.
At the same time, she told Chen Yun that if anything happened, he could call her.
Qian Duo had yet to react.
Not only him, but even the other big shots in the real estate world in the banquet hall came to chat with Chen Yun.
“Mr. Chen… This time, I’ve listed the names of all the people who participated in the bidding. If you need anything, you can take a look.”
With that, Xie Xiaohong handed Chen Yun a list.
After doing this, she turned around and left the entire banquet hall.
“Boss, I’ve already arranged the things you ordered. I believe those old fellows won’t be so insensible. This time, no one will compete with Director Chen.”
After Xie Xiaohong finished reporting the last sentence, she turned to look at Chen Yun, who was standing in the hall.
Chen Yun looked at the name list in his hand and nodded with a smile.
The names on the list were basically all very famous people in Jiangbei.
Among them were some big shots in the real estate world. If these people wanted to be convinced by him, it would definitely be very difficult. Chen Yun rubbed his head and felt a headache.
Chen Yun swirled the glass of red wine in his hand as a thin man walked towards him.
“Mr. Chen, right?”
The thin man asked tentatively.
Chen Yun nodded. He did not recognize the guy in front of him, but his attitude was still very respectful. To be invited to the banquet, he must be a famous person.
“I’m sorry, I don’t know much, so I didn’t recognize you.”
The thin man smiled and took out a business card from his chest pocket and handed it to Chen Yun. On it was the name of Hengji Real Estate Company, as well as his name, Zhou Zhengheng. “Hello, Mr. Zhou. Your name is really well-known. When I watched television previously, I often saw you on television. I didn’t expect to see you in person.”
Chen Yun took the business card and spoke enthusiastically to Zhou Zhengheng.
He had never seen Zhou Zhengheng before. He was just spouting nonsense just now.
Zhou Zhengheng smiled. It was obvious that he did not take what had just happened to heart.
Was this commercial bragging?
“I wonder if Mr. Chen is here for that piece of land this time?”
Zhou Zhengheng asked tentatively.
Chen Yun did not hold back at all and also told Zhou Zhengheng his plan. They planned to compete for this piece of land. When the time came, they would build school district houses on it. It would definitely be able to reverse their company’s deficit.
However, he did not tell Zhou Zhengheng about the situation of the company. He only told him that he had hope and was confident that he could definitely get this piece of land.
The meaning behind his words was very obvious.
“Alright, I understand. We originally hoped to get this piece of land, but since Mr. Chen is so confident, we won’t interfere.”
Zhou Zhengheng raised the glass of red wine in his hand and smiled at Chen Yun.
However, there was a hint of helplessness in his smile.
“Mr. Zhou, did something happen to your company?”
From the looks of it, Zhou Zhengheng seemed to value this piece of land very much.
However, because of some other matters, he had no choice but to give up this piece of land.
Could it be that this guy was determined to take over this piece of land because of problems with the company like them? This was because this piece of land had the effect of turning the tables for them.
School district houses were definitely the most profitable.
Every time such news was released, the other real estate vendors stared at this piece of land like hungry wolves, wishing they could buy it immediately.
Zhou Zhengheng adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and said helplessly, “Do you want to play with Hengji Real Estate? Because of some other matters, it’s about to go bankrupt. However, as long as we can get this piece of land, we can definitely make up for it.”
Chen Yun nodded as if he had understood something. Indeed, the situation was similar to Qian Duo’s company.
After he left that seat, he came to Qian Duo’s side and asked, “Have you heard of the name Zhou Zhengheng?”
Qian Duo glanced around and nodded. Then, he said, “I heard that this person is a very powerful person in real estate in Jiangbei. Do you know what he’s called? He’s called the Gold Tongue because he’s especially eloquent. He can get a lot of business and is very capable. However, I don’t know what’s been going on recently. I don’t seem to have heard any news about him.”
The Gold Tongue.
It was interesting.
Chen Yun glanced at the business card in his hand and became more and more interested in Zhou Zhengheng.
He picked up his phone and searched for Zhou Zhengheng’s name.
A bunch of related words immediately popped up.
There was news about the completion of a project by Hengji Real Estate, as well as the death of Hengji Real Estate workers at the construction site.
Chen Yun realized that the information he had found on a certain level was basically some information that was very disadvantageous to Zhou Zhengheng. They all appeared in the form of news.
Most of them were portrayed by the media as the deaths of Hengji Real Estate workers at the construction site.
Moreover, he briefly looked at the articles written by the media. The contents were very similar, but he could still tell the differences in these articles.
Some said that it was because Zhou Zhengheng docked the workers’ salaries that the workers committed suicide.
There were also people who said that the company’s safety and quality checks were not good. However, Zhou Zhengheng bribed some people, so they did not pay attention to it. Later on, the workers died.
Ever since these things happened, the reputation of Hengji Real Estate had been declining.
It could be said to be infamous.
Those who had originally planned to buy the houses developed by their company suddenly broke the contract. This dealt a huge blow to Hengji Real Estate.
News that the higher-ups of the company had jumped off a building even spread.
Chen Yun saw the physical comparison between Zhou Zhengheng before and after the accident.
After the incident, Zhou Zhengheng’s expression became a little haggard. It was probably because he was busy with this matter every day.
However, there was no doubt about his business ability.
His nickname of the Gold Tongue was not just for show.
Chen Yun narrowed his eyes and stared at the business card in his hand.
He had a very good plan.
That was because he also wanted to work in other industries. He believed that having such a business promoter would definitely bring him a lot of benefits.
Moreover, now that Zhou Zhengheng’s company’s situation had become like that, he believed that their own internal staff were also quite dissatisfied. This was a good opportunity to rope in people.
Chen Yun took a sip of the red wine in his wine glass.
A bitter feeling formed in his taste buds.
As expected, he was still not used to drinking this thing.
At night.
Just as Chen Yun was driving and thinking about something, a van arrived in front of him with flashing lights. Chen Yun had no choice but to cover his eyes.
“Don’t you know that you can’t turn on strong lights when driving at night?”
Chen Yun covered his eyes and could not react for a long time. He kept cursing at the people driving in the van. At this moment, he heard the crisp sound of sticks.
A bad feeling flashed across his heart.
Bang!
Just as the rod was about to hit Chen Yun, Chen Yun hurriedly dodged to the side. Indeed, that fellow was coming for him. The rod hit the street lamp beside him. Fortunately, Chen Yun dodged in time. Otherwise, the rod would have already appeared on his head.
It was interesting.
He raised his head and glanced at the people in front of him. These people had probably come prepared. From their clothes and the masks and sunglasses they were wearing, he could tell that they did not want others to recognize them.
Chen Yun frowned.
“Brother, there doesn’t seem to be any enmity between the two of us, right?”
Chen Yun did not remember offending anyone.
At this moment, a few more people in black got out of the van with clubs in their hands.
There were more than ten people on the other side, but there was only one person on his side.
The men in black swarmed forward.
Chen Yun had already closed his eyes.
Not long after.
Hiss~
He saw that the men in black in front of him had all fallen to the ground and were wailing in pain.
