Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 224

That was more than enough, but Xu Lei still wanted to give him a chance.

"Boss, I figured you out! You're a loyal and righteous person."

When Gao Xiaochen said that, Xu Lei did not deny it. He admitted that he still cherished the feelings he had developed over the past few years.

I don't want to completely destroy Chengcheng, as long as he does his job well at the grassroots level.

Xu Lei wouldn't do anything to him.

"Actually, he was having a pretty tough time, I knew all that, and it's my fault for not taking better care of him beforehand."

Instead, this gave bad people an opportunity to take advantage of him, and they actually used him.

Xu Lei's words surprised Gao Xiaochen greatly.

"Boss, you usually seem to be the most decisive person, so why do you always seem to hesitate a bit when it comes to things like this?"

Xu Lei smiled but didn't say anything. Xu Lei arrived at the airport just in time for Ah Q to get off the plane.

Upon seeing Xu Lei, she gave him a big hug.

He plans to stay here for two more days this time, and has even given himself a new Chinese name in order to better integrate into the community.

"How about I call myself... Wang Jianguo?"

After speaking, he looked at Xu Lei with anticipation, and Xu Lei nodded meaningfully.

"It sounds very pleasant to listen to, and it makes you sound very honest. We especially like to do business with honest people."

Ah Q was very happy to receive the recognition.

"From now on, you'll have to call me Jianguo (建国, meaning Founding of the Nation), not Ah Q (阿Q, meaning Ah Q). It sounds like I don't fit in at all with you guys."

Chapter 252 Welcome Reception

Xu Lei laughed heartily. This time, Xu Lei had specially found a good place to welcome him.

"Knowing you love lively places, I've invited you to this big restaurant over here this time."

However, since we wanted to discuss business, we specifically chose a private room. This would provide more privacy, allowing us to speak openly and frankly.

Xu Lei always made very proper arrangements, and he nodded slightly.

"You can arrange everything, I'll listen to you."

After exchanging a few words, the two naturally steered the conversation back to what happened last time.

Ah Q ultimately felt some worry and deep guilt.

Even though that matter wasn't directly related to him, he still felt particularly conflicted.

"I should apologize to you for leaving in such a hurry last time. I bet that girl at work was terrified too."

I looked into it afterward, and that guy was definitely not honest.

Xu Lei quickly waved his hand.

"The reason I invited you here is so that you can experience our local customs and culture."

I was very grateful for your hospitality last time, so don't expect anything this time.

"Just settle in here peacefully, and feel free to tell me if anything comes up."

After saying that, he smiled and was very excited to hear Xu Lei say that about him.

"I've heard that the food here is delicious, and when you said you wanted to invest in a restaurant, I knew you had a strategic vision."

I visited here a year ago, just for a brief stop, and I didn't stay long, but I still discovered a spot.

Wang Jianguo's perspective on things is always different from those of other people.

Xu Lei was just missing a clever and resourceful person like that, and he knew it too.

Next, I will focus all my efforts on cultivating Gao Xiaochen, who has spent several years abroad and has a broad perspective.

So when he heard that Xu Lei was going to do this project, he was the first to welcome it with open arms.

I was incredibly excited, feeling that this project would definitely bring a major turning point for the company.

Xu Lei was excited, but their thoughts actually differed somewhat.

He even has other plans in mind; Wang Jianguo brought his own business plans with him this time.

They also hoped to discuss the restaurant's construction with Xu Lei again, since Xu Lei had already resolved all the internal and external problems.

The next step is to focus wholeheartedly on developing your new business, and listen to all of Wang Jianguo's ideas.

Xu Lei was filled with excitement.

"The location of the restaurant is very important. There are probably many wealthy people here."

Therefore, their first priority was to invest in a grand hotel and build it in a magnificent style.

They just wanted to make money off the rich, but now the economy is doing well.

It's not just the wealthy who can eat at these fancy restaurants; ordinary people are the main consumer group.

If we specifically create such a place, allowing them to come and spend money freely, they can indulge in extravagance.

That's the most impressive. I've been to America before, and they have their own shopping malls there.

People can complete all their eating, drinking, and shopping needs within that mall; I think this project has great potential.

When Xu Lei shared this idea, Wang Jianguo was immediately surprised, as he had never made such a prediction before.

But after hearing Xu Lei say this, he could sense with his extremely keen business sense that this was bound to be a money-making opportunity in the future.

"I hadn't thought of that idea of ​​yours. Nowadays, department stores, food, and clothing are all sold separately."

Therefore, very few people would suggest bringing them all together abroad.

Okay, but I wonder what our success rate is?

Since this idea has been proposed, that's excellent. At this moment, Xu Lei is still discussing the success rate of this matter with the other party, but Jiang Tian is not so lucky.

He is facing multiple charges this time and will probably be out of jail for some time.

Xu Lei was finally able to have two days of peace and quiet. He felt completely exhausted from all the trouble he had caused these past few days.

Now he can finally stay there peacefully, and Xu Lei can focus on his own work.

"I've been running around to many places these days, just hoping to find an opportunity."

"To put this idea into practice, you're the only person I want to partner with."

After Xu Lei finished speaking, Wang Jianguo was very excited, after all, Xu Lei was young and promising and dared to take responsibility for his actions.

They have a very strong ability to execute, and in business, they believe in seizing opportunities first.

If you are always hesitant and indecisive, and always look back and forth before doing things, you will miss the opportunity.

So when he heard that Xu Lei wanted to collaborate with him, he was overjoyed.

"That would be even better. I've been waiting for you to say that. I'm not kidding you, that's why I came here this time."

I was just thinking of discussing with you more to see if we could expand the business a bit more.

· ······Requesting flowers· ········

You are a hard-working person with talented subordinates. Let's work together.

"We will definitely get it done."

After saying this, Xu Lei became extremely excited and saw that his comrades-in-arms had already been found.

Then all we have to do is wait for the project to be implemented.

The chocolate project is currently underway, but Xu Lei is temporarily unable to attend to it due to the betrayal he suffered last time.

Xu Lei couldn't find a suitable replacement for him, so he was busy with both tasks.

Fortunately, the recent transfer of funds from the chocolate company has saved up some of the money.

Xu Lei knew his start-up capital had arrived, and now it was time to put his skills to the test.

They quickly chose an address; the place was an old, run-down commercial street.

. ...... ...

There is little potential for further development, and wealthy people are climbing over here to see this street.

Xu Lei immediately took a liking to this place, but there were already a lot of residents here.

Several shopping malls had previously tried to acquire the land use rights.

But in the end, they all failed; these people were not easy to deal with and would not spend a small amount of money.

So many people were tempted, but ultimately couldn't afford it, so they all gave up.

Gao Xiaochen was somewhat surprised to see that Xu Lei had taken a liking to this piece of land.

"Boss, you don't mean to buy this land and build a shopping mall. I think that's unlikely."

There are just too many residents in this place. In this one unit and one building in front of us alone, there are nearly a hundred households living in the compensation amount.

Just thinking about it gives me a headache. If you dare to take over this land, you'll be really something.

Many people have tried this before, but all have failed. Otherwise, let's think of something else.

I think there are several places that are also quite nice.

He then took out the map, but Xu Lei shook his head at them all.

"Xiaochen, you have sharp eyes, you should know that this land has a very promising future."

Now everyone has become smarter and has started to expand their territory indefinitely.

Many suburban plots of land were buried, but those areas need to be developed.

For years, our ideas were excellent; the only thing we lacked was a good piece of land like this.

You could tell from the glint of fire in Qiao Xulei's eyes that he had already made up his mind.

Chapter 253 New Land

No one could persuade him, so he could only nod slightly.

"The location is good, but it will probably take some effort to secure a deal..."

Xu Lei's confidence was not due to arrogance; he saw the potential in this land.

Moreover, Xu Lei observed these residents over the past two days and found that they had already begun to complain about their surroundings.

Everyone wants to leave, but no one is willing to keep lowering the price of the land they own.

So in the end, everyone remained stuck there, neither moving away nor staying.

In the end, they could only stay there quietly, seemingly just barely holding on.

Xu Lei naturally saw a glimmer of hope in this matter and knew everything that was going on.

I should start preparing now; I'm extremely excited.

Even though he knew this matter wouldn't be resolved in a day or two, he had already made up his mind.

Anything he's willing to do, he'll definitely be able to accomplish in 163.

"The village committee in this place seems to be headed by someone surnamed Li. Otherwise, I'll ask him to come out and talk to me."

You've been here for two days now, so you've probably figured out what's going on around here by now.

If we really want it, we need to start negotiating with him.

Gao Xiaochen is exhausted from following him around these past two days.

But Qiao Xu Lei still didn't seem to want to take over this land, which made me a little confused. What am I trying to do?

Moreover, it would be better to buy a piece of land in the suburbs instead, as there would be fewer disputes over the land there.

They can use it however they want, and build it however they want.

Building in such a place requires not only paying attention to passersby, but also talking to them.

These people are no pushovers; they won't stop until they've squeezed a hefty sum out of them.

Gao Xiaochen has come to understand in the past two days that most of the people living here are elderly.

They have plenty of time to argue with you about this kind of thing anyway.
