Zeng Yiming did not drive because he was drunk. He planned to take a taxi to send Zhang Xin back first.
Zeng Yiming and Zhang Xin were sitting in the back seat of the taxi, talking and laughing along the way.
The effect of alcohol made them more candid and talked about trivial matters in each other's lives.
Zeng Yiming couldn't help but think of his brother as he listened to Zhang Xin telling interesting things in life.
Soon, the taxi arrived at the hotel where Zhang Xin was staying.
Zeng Yiming looked at Zhang Xin worriedly and asked with concern: "Is it okay for you to go up alone?"
Zhang Xin smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I can drink much better than you. There will be no problem in going up."
Zeng Yiming nodded. Zhang Xin tonight was different from the past. Alcohol made her more vulnerable.
At the moment of saying goodbye, Zeng Yiming suddenly felt that he should do something, just in case.
He took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Zhang Xin: "Send me a message when you arrive to reassure me."
Then, he turned and left, leaving Zhang Xin standing alone at the door of the hotel.
Zeng Yiming returned home and lay on the bed tossing and turning. He simply took out his mobile phone and called Huo Pengcheng.
"Chengzi, what are you doing? It's time for a holiday. Find time to have a drink."
Huo Pengcheng was influenced by his senior Ding Sanshi and was perfecting his business plan. When he saw the caller, he carefully saved the documents and ejected the USB flash drive, and then started chatting with him on the phone.
"Xiao Ming, why did you remember to call my buddy? I also said that I would like to talk to you during the holiday. It seems that we have a good understanding."
Zeng Yiming felt much better. He stopped lying down and got up to pour a glass of water.
"Okay, come over when you have time, and you can make an appointment with Fatty then. I won't call him alone."
The three of them used to be good enough to wear a pair of pants. Although they don't often get together now, in his heart, they will always be brothers.
After making the call, he received a message, Zhang Xin: "I'm here, good night."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Pengcheng looked at the time on his computer. He felt it was still early, so he continued to perfect his plan.
"When I go to see him, show it to him and help me give him some advice. Can we three cobblers be as strong as Zhuge Liang?"
In his heart, Zeng Yiming, who was in high school, left him and Fatty alone.
Fatty Chen Juncai was playing DOTA Frozen Throne in the Internet cafe at this time. He was so busy operating the Minotaur that he didn't even pay attention when Huo Pengcheng called him.
Huo Pengcheng was helpless and didn't answer the phone, so he could only leave a message via OICQ.
Why didn't he send him a message?
The 20 yuan package of the mobile campus card includes sending 200 text messages. Sometimes it is absolutely not enough for urgent matters, and the excess is 0.15 yuan per message.
OICQ is a great way to leave messages. It’s completely free except for paying the Internet fee.
Huo Pengcheng wanted to create a software that was better than this one.
He has already found help from his senior brothers and sisters at school. As long as he is sure about it, he can start work.
As for the funding issue, isn’t there a rich man like Zeng Yiming?
Zeng Yiming didn't know Chengzi's little thoughts. He fell asleep soundly and was so unhappy.
As he was getting ready to go to work the next day, he received a call from an investment company affiliated with the construction authority.
"We have a large resettlement community here. After relevant meetings, your company, Provincial Construction Group and Shaocheng Municipal Construction Company were shortlisted. Please bring your company's relevant qualification certificates to the third floor of No. 111 Babao Street before ten o'clock this morning. Report from the fifth bid opening room.”
At ten o'clock today, I brought all the relevant documents with me. I'm a little rushed, but I can make it in time.
He went back to the company to get all the information, called Liang Shan and Zhang Wen, and went straight to No. 111 Babao Street.
When they appeared at the stairs, they were stopped by the staff: "Please show your ID card, company business license, tax registration certificate, and project manager certificate. Is the project manager here?"
Zhang Wen quickly raised his hand to indicate that he had arrived.
Zeng Yiming raised his eyes and looked at the time. There were still twenty minutes. He took his time and handed all the documents to the staff for inspection.
After carefully checking the documents, the staff asked them to sign in.
Only then did he see what was written on the sign-in form for the Hengshan Resettlement Community Project. The people from the Provincial Construction Group had already arrived.
After he signed in, people came over one after another.
When he arrived at the fifth bid opening room, there were already five people sitting in the first row, and the rest of the seats were empty. He sat in the second row in the order he came in.
After Wang Hui came in, she glanced at Zeng Yiming differently, and the latter nodded slightly.
It can be seen that five companies successively participated in this bidding.
The staff sent them a form: "With the approval of the Planning Commission, this project adopts the method of design and construction at the same time. You need to fill in the total price reduction ratio on this form and stamp it with the official seal after confirming it is correct."
The staff sent them a form: "With the approval of the Planning Commission, this project adopts the method of design and construction at the same time. You need to fill in the total price reduction ratio on this form and stamp it with the official seal after confirming it is correct."
The heads of each company picked up the forms one after another and carefully checked the data. The form is very simple, containing only basic information about the project and the drop-off percentage they need to fill out.
This ratio is the core element of this project!
It directly determines the profit of the project, so everyone pays special attention to it.
The troublesome thing is that no bidding documents have been issued, and he has no idea how this project works.
You said, if the later site is different from the design, is this considered a change or should it be directly included in the contract?
It's really worrying.
Zeng Yiming is the only private company here. Companies like them that are owned by the whole people are not afraid of this. If they lose or make money, someone will cover it. Huasheng Company does not dare to compete with them. Even if it loses, he cannot compensate for it.
He still asked the question in his mind to the person in charge of the bidding on the rostrum. There was also a recorder beside him.
After hearing this, the person in charge said with a smile: "This model is our first attempt and has been approved by the Presbyterian Council. The construction period is only half a year to ensure that the demolished residents of key projects can move into new homes during the New Year."
After he finished speaking, he paused and glanced around at all the bidders.
“It is inevitable to encounter situations on site that are inconsistent with the design.
For example: the geological conditions may not match those given by the geological survey unit. Everyone knows the reason.
When the time comes, communicate with the relevant units in a timely manner. After they agree, they will implement it on the map. After the later construction is completed, the price will be calculated according to the current bidding list and quota, combined with your today's bidding discount ratio..."
After he finished speaking, everyone laughed, as long as it was not a total contract. In fact, everyone preferred this new model.
Tender costs are reduced and procedures are reduced.
It may seem illegal on the surface, but he just explained it clearly.
The reason why Huasheng Company was able to enter this venue was actually thanks to the governor who named him in after reading the newspaper, otherwise his company's qualifications would not have been able to enter.
Representatives of the Provincial Construction Group also raised their hands to express that they had questions to ask.
"As we all know, steel prices will increase towards the end of the year, and the prices will get higher as the year goes by. I would like to ask if this fee can be adjusted on time in the future?"
The person in charge did not answer him directly this time. He said tactfully: "After you win the bid, discuss the specific details and terms with the owner."
After some speculation, he wrote down a downward floating ratio of 20.15%.
This is considered a profit for him, and the money saved during the bidding process is included in this ratio. The ultimate goal is to win the bid and the price is so low. His hard power cannot compete with several other companies.
His company's qualification upgrade requires performance.
It is very easy to lose money if the resettlement housing project falls by more than 20%. He is also betting that other companies will not dare to exceed this red line.
Zhang Wen glanced at his lower body, looked a little anxious, and touched him with his hand.
Magic cloak.
Zeng Yiming gave him a reassuring look.
The host has already written the names of each company on the small blackboard.
"Now please submit your reduction ratio."
After submitting the bidding ratio, the person in charge of the bidding looked at the collected data and reported it one by one without any hurry.
Provincial Construction Group 16.5%, Shaocheng Construction 15.85%, Xiaocheng Construction 16.25%, Shengxin Company 17.85%, Huasheng Company 20.15%.
When this ratio was reported, there was a burst of exclamation.
Wang Hui glanced at Zeng Yiming meaningfully and said in her heart: Boy, I'm so sorry for you.
The representative of Shengxin Company is an intellectual mature woman. She raised her hand and smiled sweetly at the person in charge: "After our company's reference to similar project experience, we suspect that Huasheng Company's quotation was lower than the cost."
Report on the spot.
Everyone calls him good guy!
The person in charge of the bidding gave her a gesture and asked her to sit down first. He paused and asked, "Representatives of Huasheng Company, since there are people who have doubts, please make it clear in person."
Zeng Yiming stood up and bowed to express his gratitude to the person in charge.
“We are a second-tier company and we need the performance of this project, and this is one of them.
As for the lower than cost price, we think about it this way. The bidding method of this project allowed us to save a large amount of upfront cost investment.
We have our own labor service company and our own main material factory, so there is no situation of being below cost. "
He looked at the person in charge of the bidding and the rest of the people on the rostrum. They were just taking notes, and their expressions were very natural.
"If we need to provide proof, I happen to have the relevant materials with me."
When the person in charge of the bidding heard this, they had to verify it since there was a report.
After the staff came over, Zeng Yiming found the relevant information and handed it over.
The person in charge took a look at the certification documents and said solemnly: "The gentleman just clarified that there are main materials in the explanation, but there are only documents from an insulation company here, and no other materials are seen. Is there anything to add?"
Zeng Yiming raised his eyes and glanced at him, and said: "No, our company promises that this quotation will not be lower than the market price."
He wanted to explain that the price of sand and gravel was lower than the market price, which would drag down the construction work in the small town.
It makes no sense for him to do that, and he might even give them a name for rigging bids.
The person in charge of the bidding stopped the mature woman's next move with his eyes. He wanted to hand over the work to the supervisor.
"Huasheng Company has said so much and needs to add a written explanation of the situation. Do other companies have any opinions?"
The tone of the last sentence makes it sound like a reminder to everyone not to be troublesome.
"Okay, since everyone has no objections, let's go back. The bid winning notice will be issued within three days."
Zeng Yiming completed a handwritten description of the situation, signed and sealed it, and was able to escape.
