After discovering that the project had crashed, Su Meng naturally did not want to withdraw.
She has been planning this project for a long time, and is also preparing to make it the leading project of Taolue Real Estate, making her famous in one fell swoop.
Liu Botao also disagreed with the withdrawal. The Second National Cotton Factory is right next to the Second Ring Road, which is a very good location. Once commercial development is carried out, tens of millions can be earned.
How could he be willing to let go of such a huge profit.
But Chunming didn't want to withdraw.
On the one hand, he has been in contact with the Second National Cotton Factory since last year, which took much longer than Su Meng;
On the one hand, if he wants to withdraw now, in the eyes of others, he is abandoning public affairs for personal reasons. Because Su Meng was his wife, she did not hesitate to harm the company's interests so that he could not explain to Xiang Nan.
Neither of them wanted to retreat, so they were on the same page.
After Xiang Nan heard about this, he directly asked Chunming to withdraw from the competition.
"Forget it, let Su Meng earn the money." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
The Second National Cotton Factory is a piece of fat meat, but there are many meats stewed in his pot, and it is just one of them. Fat is fat, but not enough to fight Su Meng to the death for it.
"How can this be done? I have been following this project for a long time." Chunming refused and prepared to do business.
"Okay, just give me some face." Xiang Nan advised.
Chunming nodded, withdrew from the competition for the Second National Cotton Factory, and chose other projects.
…
After Su Meng got the project, she was not only unhappy, but also very angry.
She believed that Chunming and Xiang Nan's retreat without a fight was not a good intention at all, but looked down upon her.
She wants to compete head-on and doesn't want to be given charity by them.
I had a big fight with Chunming over this, and then moved back to my parents' home.
After Xiang Nan heard about it, he was a little confused.
"We do good for her, but she doesn't appreciate it and says we discriminate against her?" He asked in confusion, not understanding Su Meng's thinking.
This doesn't mean it's cheap, it's just eating and smashing the pot at the same time. Completely ignore the good intentions of others and only care about your own sense of moral superiority.
Chunming was also a little helpless, "If I had known this, I shouldn't have let her."
"If I had known this, you shouldn't have married her." Xiang Nan scolded, "A dog bites Lu Dongbin and doesn't know a good heart. I originally wanted to let her go, but since she doesn't appreciate it, let's take it back. "
Chunming sighed, feeling aggrieved for Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan really thought about them, so he gave up the project he got.
But I didn't expect that Su Meng would actually think like this, which was really chilling.
…
Liu Botao heard that Su Meng and Chunming had a quarrel over this matter, and he also felt that his niece's brain circuit was a bit strange.
She was not happy to let her take advantage. She was really not a mature businessman.
"Mengmeng, since you are a businessman now, you should discuss business in business. You don't have to worry about whether he is deliberately asking you to do it. Anyway, as long as we make money," Liu Botao advised, "You are always so emotional, so what? Can it be done?"
"Uncle, I just don't want them to look down on me." Su Meng said willfully.
She feels that she has been working in the real estate industry in Hong Kong for several years. She has rich experience and a broad vision, which is great. So I wanted to take the opportunity of this competition to have a try with Chunming and Xiang Nan.
But Chunming and Xiang Nan retreated without a fight. They seemed to be taking care of her, but in fact they subconsciously looked down on her. Naturally, she was very angry and no longer wanted to do this business.
"Okay, Mengmeng, don't be willful." Liu Botao advised, "A mature businessman should be able to negotiate business. Since this business is good for us, let's proceed.
When you are as wealthy as Li Ka-shing, everyone will look up to you and no one will dare to look down on you. On the contrary, if you are always so willful and push away all the business that comes to your door, then the business will definitely not be done well. When the time comes, how will people think highly of you? "
When Su Meng heard what he said, she felt that it was somewhat reasonable, so she thought to forget it and just take on this business.
But unexpectedly, when she contacted the Second National Cotton Factory, she learned that they had confirmed their cooperation with Kunpeng Real Estate. In other words, Chunming took back the project given to her.
After learning the news, Su Meng became angry again, thinking that Chunming was a capricious villain. I promised to give her a project, but then I regretted it. I really broke my promise.
When Liu Botao heard about this, he also scolded Chunming for not knowing the rules and having to take back the gifts he had given out. This was simply unreasonable.
"Mengmeng, don't go back, let him dry out. Really, that's not the way to do things." He roared angrily.
When he thought about tens of millions gone, his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys ached.
Su Meng nodded and decided to ignore Chunming.
…
The second national cotton factory project was subsequently won by Kunpeng Real Estate.
After the demolition, it was built into a landmark office building and became a major brand of Kunpeng Real Estate.
Of course, this is all for later.
In 1992, Yang Huajian was also released from prison.
After he was released from prison, Xiang Nan and Chunming treated him to a drink and invited him to come to Kunpeng to develop.
After thinking about it, Yang Huajian decided to accept the invitation.
On the one hand, it is no longer possible for him to enter the government agency after carrying the charges, and the only way is to go into business; on the other hand, the real estate industry is really booming now, so he plans to work with Xiang Nan for a while first, and wait until he has accumulated enough experience. After experience, consider starting your own business.
The reason why Xiang Nan invited Yang Huajian to join was because of his abilities and connections.
Although his old man has retired, his connections and friendships are still there. In Beijing, connections are more important than money. Get to know some key people who can be used in the university.
Of course, Xiang Nan also has a wide network of contacts. But he doesn't like to do everything personally, and takes care of everything himself. In that case, it would not be enough to divide him into eight petals.
Therefore, cadre students like Yang Huajian came in handy.
…
In May 1992, Xiang Nan released "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows", officially completing the book.
The publication of the final chapter has caused the sales of the "Harry Potter" series of books to hit another peak. On the first day of its release, it sold three million copies.
Many book fans queued up all night long to buy books, which can be said to be an unprecedented event. This has been widely reported by many media.
The news spread back to China, making many writers envious.
In the 1990s, the physical book market was gradually declining.
On the one hand, it is affected by piracy, and on the other hand, it is also because today's writers are too pursuing the release of their own personality and ignore the readers' feelings.
What is written is arrogant and difficult to understand. Only niche readers cheered, while mass readers avoided it. Over time, people are naturally unwilling to buy books anymore, which has also caused the physical book market to gradually slump.
The sluggishness of physical books has also caused most authors to see their incomes decrease, and they are no longer as prosperous as they used to be.
For example, in the 1980s, Xiang Nan could earn dozens of yuan per article, equivalent to two months' income of an ordinary worker. Therefore, the writers at that time had a pretty good life.
But now, an article can only be sold for a few hundred yuan, which is enough to satisfy hunger, but forget about getting rich. For this reason, they were particularly envious of Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan dismissed this.
Once upon a time, this group of people looked down upon him, thinking that he only focused on commercial writing and was not a good writer at all.
Now, go ahead and envy them.
