My minimum living allowance is credited to my account every day with 1000 million yuan
Chapter 430 Acquisition, Acquisition
Mr. Ding wasn't easily frightened, but Lin Ya's words still startled him!
Junxiao Plaza, with over 500 self-owned properties, has a property value of nearly one trillion yuan!
What kind of company is this? My confidence has diminished by three points without me even realizing it.
There was no way around it; he was a big shot and a very wealthy man in Jinghai.
But under such pressure from Junxiao Business Management, I felt like I couldn't even stand up straight when I spoke.
Just look at the tone of their voice, it's like they're saying, "Do you submit or not? If you don't, I'll bury you in money!"
Damn, nouveau riche, all they know is how to bully people with money!
Mr. Ding muttered a complaint in his heart, feeling resentful.
"18.5 billion, that's our bottom line," Ding's CFO gritted his teeth and announced the figure.
Junxiao Commercial Management's CFO suddenly laughed and pushed over a set of data on a competitor in the same area, namely Xinglong Plaza: "The plaza next door is priced at 6.5 million, and its commercial area is 2000 square meters larger than yours. Your price... is it rigged with gold bricks?"
"That's different. The mall across the street is deserted, while ours is one of the best commercial areas in Jinghai!"
Lin Ya waved her hand, "If we acquire the area across the street, it will immediately become one of the best commercial areas in Jinghai. Does President Ding believe that?"
Mr. Ding was extremely upset, and even cursed Xinglong Plaza across the street, saying, "Why did you have to build a commercial complex right across from me? It's disgusting."
Once Lin Ya spoke, the finance director here dared not accept the order carelessly.
Mr. Ding chuckled twice and said, "We have to consider its special commercial value."
"Mr. Ding, please give me a reasonable price. I'll consider it. If we reach an agreement, we can finalize it today. If you insist on 18.5 billion, I'll acquire Xinglong International and invest 10 billion to develop it. I don't believe it can't achieve the same effect as Tianyue City!"
Looking at Lin Ya, who was elegantly flipping through project documents across from him, President Ding felt an overwhelming pressure and could hardly breathe.
The previously well-managed price war suddenly went out of control.
The frequency of my fingers tapping the table unconsciously was three times faster than normal.
He picked up the glass and gulped down half a glass of ice water, but choked and coughed repeatedly.
Across the negotiating table, the eyes of the representatives from Junxiao Commercial Management Company exchanged glances that already revealed the sharp glint of predators.
In his office, Wu Yang was pulling his hair with both hands, urging people to keep an eye on the meeting with the homeowners.
Three hours have passed, and the negotiations are still going on behind closed doors. For Wu Yang, every second feels like an eternity.
The ticking of the clock on the wall sounded like a death knell for him.
When his subordinates came to report on their work in the afternoon, they were all stopped. He felt like a prisoner awaiting sentencing, who could be executed at any moment!
slap~
slap~
He slapped himself twice, once with his front hand and once with his backhand. "Damn it, that'll teach you to talk back!"
Wu Yang is now filled with regret and hates Jincheng Sports. That damn company dragged me down.
Thinking of this, I opened the door and called for the operations manager to come in!
"Mr. Wu!"
"This weekend's promotional subsidy event will exclude Jincheng Sports from the brand and prevent them from participating!"
The operations manager closed the door and went outside, still thinking, "Rumors are circulating that General Manager Wu is strongly supporting Jincheng Sports. Is this what you call strong support? Isn't this stabbing someone in the back?"
At the negotiating table, General Manager Ding took out a wet wipe and wiped away his sweat!
Under Lin Ya's gaze, he finally relented: "17 billion, but the down payment must be no less than 50%."
Her red lips curved slightly upward, and her fingertips tapped lightly on the table, the rhythm like a silent triumphant song.
The light from the crystal chandelier shone on her, and the pearl buttons on her "Starry Night" suit gleamed coldly, as if even the air itself trembled in celebration of her victory.
"make a deal!"
Mr. Ding breathed a sigh of relief and slumped down. Lin Ya hadn't said anything, and his heart was in his throat. He could see the expression on the beautiful general manager's face across from him.
He had a playful, teasing look about him, but she saw right through him. She would have accepted the price even if it were a little lower. However, she was indeed very generous, like Junxiao Business Management, and didn't try to stall for time anymore.
It's as if having one hundred million more or one hundred million less doesn't matter.
I'm so glad I won't be competing with Junxiao Commercial Management anymore; they were a devil!
When the general counsel bowed to hand her the pen, she casually tossed it to her assistant behind her, a gesture reminiscent of bestowing a sword upon a loyal subject.
She caught the stunned look in Ding's secretary's eyes, and with a raised eyebrow that seemed to be smiling but wasn't, she made the other person panic and lower their head—at this moment, Lin Ya was not only the winner, but also the queen crowned on this small battlefield.
"Mr. Ding, it's a pleasure doing business with you!"
After the contract was signed, Lin Ya stood up with a smile, shook hands lightly with President Ding, and then let go.
The team leader went out, followed by the working group!
As she stood up, the hem of her skirt traced a perfect arc, and the crisp sound of her high heels on the marble floor instantly silenced the previously noisy conference room.
Mr. Ding's secretary looked at Lin Ya with envy. This was the highest level of womanhood, making all men bow down in admiration!
The glass curtain wall reflected her silhouette as she walked toward the elevator, the Van Cleef & Arpels four-leaf clover necklace on her slender neck swaying slightly, like the final victory badge on this battle.
"Make the payment to Tianyue City. Our operations team will be in tomorrow to hand over the work to the supplier. Don't delay. The sooner that Wu Yang gets out, the better. Don't try to cause any trouble in the mall in the last few days!"
"Also, inform Luffy to prepare to take over the Jincheng Sports store here!"
The assistant took notes one by one, and after General Manager Lin entered the elevator, he began sending messages to arrange work.
Jingle bell bell~!
Wu Yang picked up his phone; it was a call from headquarters. He answered it quickly!
"Mr. Wu, Tianyue City has reached an agreement and signed a contract with Junxiao Commercial Management today. The project owner has changed. Now, Mr. Ding has informed us that the handover will begin tomorrow and has agreed to pay our company a penalty for breach of contract. You must stand firm at your post until the very end and do a good job of the handover. This is related to whether we can receive the full amount of the penalty for breach of contract, so please take it seriously!"
Wu Yang didn't remember when he hung up the phone. Dark sweat stains appeared under his armpits, and as he repeatedly adjusted his posture, two wrinkles appeared at the knees of his custom-made trousers.
Ironically, his left hand remained tightly gripping his phone, the screen displaying an unsent message to President Ding, requesting a face-to-face meeting—its reflection clearly visible in the floor-to-ceiling window.
He stumbled and knocked over the "Manager of the Year" trophy on the display shelf.
The crystal base shattered, and the cleaner swept it up with a mop, as if erasing a name that was about to be swallowed up by capital.
There are no secrets in the business world, especially not such a major event!
Jincheng Sports Tianhai Branch
Xu Jian stared at the message he had just received and remained silent for a long time.
Is this Junxiao Commercial Management? So domineering!
Just because Wu Yang expressed his support, he spent 17 billion yuan to acquire Tianyue City today, making Wu Yang pack up and get out!
This invisible pressure made Xu Jian feel a little suffocated. Any working person would probably feel powerless in the face of a company that throws out billions of dollars at the drop of a hat.
Am I worthy to fight to the bitter end?
Xu Jian couldn't help but ask himself.
What kind of entity has Jincheng Sports offended? He has discussed privately with many regional general managers why Junxiao Business Management Committee is targeting Jincheng Sports so much.
It wasn't like this before, especially for the general manager of the Ningxi region, who was truly wronged.
I heard that a month ago, Junxiao Commercial Management's investment promotion staff expressed their intention to cooperate closely with Jincheng Sports. At that time, they were planning to clear out more than 50 stores of Jiexun Sports and let Jincheng Sports take over.
The regional general manager of Ningxi felt like a pie had fallen from the sky and landed right on his head. These fifty-plus stores could contribute hundreds of millions of yuan in sales a year. Once the performance was delivered at the end of the year, a promotion and a raise would be just around the corner!
Unexpectedly, after such a short time, a major reversal occurred: all of Jincheng Sports' stores were to be cleared out, and Jiexun Sports was to take over!
This reversal of fortunes has completely overwhelmed the regional headquarters of Ningxi Province. The turnaround came so quickly and so strongly!
What baffled him the most was that he still didn't understand why.
Wansheng Group Qinghai Regional Headquarters
The regional general manager and the general manager of Wansheng Plaza in the government district exchanged a wry smile.
"The wolf is coming!"
I had heard before that people in Jiangzhou and Ningxi were always at a disadvantage when they encountered Junxiao Commercial Management, and I always knew how formidable it was. Now I have witnessed it firsthand!
"This kind of tactic is deadly. I heard that Dayun City and Wanshang City are also in talks!"
"If it acquires another business, then Jinghai's benchmark businesses will be wiped out in one fell swoop!"
"They have plenty of money. I estimate that Wanshangcheng and Dayuncheng are bound to clash sooner or later. Get ready, what's coming is a fierce battle!"
After the general manager of the government affairs district left, the regional general manager suddenly regretted it.
Why did I wait for the headhunter's call a few days ago? If I had agreed to talk then, I might have been the one stirring up trouble in Qinghai.
Thinking of this, I sent a message to the headhunter, "We can talk about what happened last time!"
Jia Xu, the general manager of Wanshangcheng, also received the message. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and was glad that he hadn't answered Xu Jian's call that night. He knew how powerful Junxiao Commercial Management was; they had paid hundreds of millions of yuan more to acquire Wanshangcheng's project in Tianning.
He heard that Junxiao Commercial Management planned to build no less than 10 Junwu Plazas across the country this year, and many of Wanmao Mall's projects would inevitably be their targets. Therefore, Jia Xu was not afraid of the worst-case scenario and dared not offend Junxiao Plaza.
Moreover, he had a good personal relationship with the former general manager of Tianning Wanshang Mall, which is now Junwu Plaza. Knowing that he was now under Junxiao Commercial Management, the authorized space and treatment were much better than before when he was in Wanshang Group, which Jia Xu also longed for.
Junxiao Commercial Management has arrived and has also expressed its intention to acquire Wanshang Group's Wanshang Mall in Jinghai City. He personally believes that the chances are still very high.
Because Jinghai City already has Junxiao City, no matter how hard Wanshangcheng tries, it will be impossible to introduce high-end luxury brands. This is already the peak of the project. So why not sell it at a high price during its peak? Besides, Junxiao Commercial Management is a generous buyer.
Just as he had expected, Wanshang Group quickly responded to Junxiao Commercial Management's acquisition of Wanshang Mall in Jinghai City:
Wanshang Group quickly provided complete financial statements, property ownership certificates, and other documents; and expressed its willingness to cooperate with due diligence to expedite the transaction. This is a very positive sign, indicating that the previous cooperation in Tianning City has made Wanshang Group very interested in Junxiao Commercial Management Group, this generous investor.
It was because of this that Jia Xu learned of this major move, and the headquarters asked him to exchange the business license and the audit reports for the past three years with Junxiao Commercial Management.
At the same time, we cooperated with Junxiao Commercial Management's due diligence, including but not limited to checking mortgages, whether there is a seizure status, and some major contracts (leases, loan agreements).
Dudu~
"Enter!"
Ling Da, the vice president of Wan Mall, came in.
"Mr. Jia, I heard that Junxiao Commercial Management has also launched an acquisition of Dayuncheng, and the property owners are responding very positively!"
The coffee cup in his hand slammed onto the desk with a "thud," the brown liquid splashing onto the front page of the newly delivered Business Daily—the headline: "Junxiao Commercial Management Group Makes Lightning Acquisition of Tianyue City."
Yesterday we just acquired Tianyue City, and today we're hearing news about Wanshang City and Dayun City one after another.
Besides Wansheng Plaza, Junxiao Plaza plans to capture all other benchmark commercial properties across high, medium, and low price ranges.
He swallowed three times before finally managing to utter, "I understand. What's Link's reaction?"
"That's what I wanted to talk about. Link will soon be taking up his post at Junxiao Business Management, serving as the regional general manager for QH Province!"
Jia Xu glanced at Ling Da and nodded dejectedly. Was he still too slow?
Link's status in the business circle of QH Province is not as high as his own, but he had contacted Junxiao Business Management early on, and Junxiao Business Management was in urgent need of staff, so he got such a good position.
After Wan Mall is acquired, I will have to be subordinate to Link. That's how it is in the workplace. Opportunities and luck are things you can't envy.
The person who had the same idea as him and was already slapping his thigh until it was swollen was the general manager of the QH province region of Wanshang Group. After he contacted the headhunter, he received the same message as Jia Xu one after another.
If I had accepted the headhunter's recommendation a few days earlier, this position would most likely have been mine, and I would have been able to take over three benchmark projects: Wanshangcheng, Dayuncheng, and Tianyuecheng. This would have been much more prestigious than being the regional general manager of Wansheng Group.
Lin Ya transferred personnel from Jiangzhou to provide support, and Lin Ke led a team to hand over the duties to Wu Yang.
Seeing Link, who used to be on par with him, suddenly become the regional general manager of Junxiao Commercial Management and soon become the biggest business tycoon in QH Province.
Wu Yang was filled with regret. One sentence had ruined his future. There was no place for him in Qinghai anymore. He would probably have to return to headquarters and wait for an appointment.
If it weren't for that arrogant remark that night, I would probably already be working at Junxiao Business Management. I might even be able to compete for Link's position, but now it's too late.
Jingle bell bell~
The call came from headquarters; it was from the chairman's secretary. Does that mean I have to go back to headquarters to report on my work?
"Mr. Wu, the chairman is furious because of your inappropriate remarks outside the company, which caused the company to lose such a high-quality shopping mall and also resulted in the wrath of Junxiao Commercial Management. You cannot escape responsibility for this. HR will talk to you about severance pay. Be prepared!"
He suddenly grabbed the phone and roared, "I want to see the chairman! He said it himself last month..." But the receiver was busy, and his distorted face was reflected on the LCD screen.
It's over, it's over!
He was filled with fear. Was Junxiao Business Management really that powerful?
The chairman's self-blame for the project loss was only a small part, since he had received a huge amount of compensation for breach of contract. The real reason he abandoned himself was probably because he was afraid of being implicated and suffering retaliation from Junxiao Commercial Management.
If that's the case, which business entity would dare to use them in the future? Which business entity wouldn't worry about Junxiao Commercial Management's retaliation?
Only now did he realize how miserable being a "chicken" was!
While the Qinghai business community was in chaos, Chen Xiao had just gotten up, and Lin Ya was on the phone in the living room.
Judging from her tone, she was calling her father.
The content seems to be explaining the situation at Dayun City, including the issue of Link joining the Junxiao Commercial Management team.
“Dad, believe me, times have changed. Your old business logic is no longer viable. If the Lin family wants to develop, it needs to change its approach. Also, I want Lin Ping to come to Junxiao Business Management for some training before returning to Lifan Business Management to take charge of the work!”
“There is a positive trend in community commerce now, especially with the construction of university towns in various places. There is less competition in community-based businesses around universities, as there are no commercial giants like Junxiao Group or Wanshang Group entering the market, and they are easier to operate. I think you can consider it.”
"Alright, once I'm done here, I'll go back and report to you in person. Time is too tight here in Qinghai, so I have to act first and inform you later. Please don't be angry!"
I hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief!
Lin Jian was furious. The two best projects that Lifan Commercial Management had in hand, Tianlong Plaza in Jiangzhou, were acquired by Junxiao Commercial Management, and Dayun City in Qinghai were also acquired.
The key point is that the daughter personally oversaw the development of Dayuncheng, and before she even had a chance to react, she had already reached a basic consensus with the property owners.
However, he also understood that if Junxiao Commercial Management decided to acquire it, his prior knowledge would be of no use, as Lifan Commercial Management did not have the strength to compete with Junxiao Commercial Management.
What's most infuriating is that her daughter also lured her top lieutenant, who is also her own nephew, to Junxiao Business Management. Isn't this a classic case of turning one's elbow against another?
You're just working at Junxiao Business Management, is it really necessary to betray your own interests?
What angered Lin Jian the most was not the economic loss, but his daughter's attitude. He felt like he had raised her for nothing!
Lin Ya finally managed to calm his anger, knowing she needed to go back as soon as possible, otherwise she would make the old man sick with anger.
"Being scolded?"
Chen Xiao came out from the inner room and saw Lin Ya hang up the phone with a helpless expression.
"It's okay, I can handle it!"
He sat down on the sofa, beckoned to her, and Lin Ya obediently came over and was embraced in his arms.
"You should hurry back. The business district near the university town that you just mentioned does have development value, but we don't think it's worth it. However, I suggest that we combine light and heavy assets."
"When you go back this time, I'll give you 10 billion yuan, as a joint investment between you and the Lin family. With your participation, I will continue to invest resources to help Lifan Commercial Management expand in this area!"
"Oh, so much money! I don't want it!"
Lin Ya jolted awake and stood up!
"What are you thinking? It's not a breakup fee!"
Her face flushed. "What breakup fee? I mean, I wasn't with you for that!"
He waved his hand, "Stop arguing, that's it. 10 billion is nothing to me!"
Staring at him for half a minute, I realized that he didn't have the slightest intention of showing off; 10 billion was nothing to him.
The boss has reached the level of subtly showing off!
He pinched the tip of her nose. "Once the Jinghai matter is over, you should go straight to Shanghai. Go back and arrange things properly so you can feel more at ease. Leave the regional setup work here to Link."
She sniffed, her fingers unconsciously tightening around the front of Chen Xiao's shirt, as if the whole world had shrunk down to just the two of them.
Zhang Ziqian came out of the secretary's office and said, "President Chen, Ms. Guo Fu's special assistant would like to meet with you to discuss the progress of the development of some smart city products!"
"Next Tuesday, tell her to come find me at Dr. Feng's Robotics Technology Group!"
Zhang Ziqian went back to her room to reply to messages, and Lin Ya took the opportunity to get up from Chen Xiao's arms.
"Boss, you've been in Jinghai for two days now. Won't that interfere with things in Jiangzhou?"
"With President Xu here, I'd be nothing more than a decoration if I went back!"
He made a somewhat self-deprecating joke.
Lin Ya will stay in Jinghai for another day to arrange things before heading back to Shanghai to meet Lin Jian and discuss the track change for Lifan Commercial Management.
She also had some selfish motives, which was to differentiate the business scope of Lifan Commercial Management from that of Junxiao Commercial Management, so as to avoid competition.
Otherwise, Lifan Commercial Management will surely die, and it might even die by its own hand, because the vast majority of Lifan Commercial Management's projects overlap with its second war zone.
This is also why she was so eager to get Lin Jian to switch tracks. When Junxiao Commercial Management and Wansheng Group engage in a marketing war, these small commercial management companies will be the most unfortunate, as they will be easily affected.
After finishing lunch, Chen Xiao took Zhang Ziqian back to Jiangzhou. They hadn't seen He Qing for the past two days and planned to go back and visit her.
He Qing still goes to work on the 28th floor of Yunfeng Building during the day, and returns to Xiangshan Linyu after finishing her work.
She had planned to go to the meat crab hot pot restaurant at Junxiao Plaza in Yucheng on opening day, but she was unable to go due to her injury, which was quite a pity.
But the daily revenue is sent over. Wang Ping sits opposite He Qing. These past two nights, she has been so happy that she has been sleeping with her phone in her arms. They have an internal group chat where the store manager reports the revenue every night.
On the first day of opening, the turnover was 4.5 yuan, and on the second day it was 5 yuan. And this is not even the weekend yet. The weekend performance is expected to be even better!
This is thanks to the shopping mall providing them with huge advertising spaces, including a large scrolling screen outside the mall and advertisements inside the mall, which stretch from the 3rd floor to the 1st floor, giving them almost all of the mall's best advertising spaces.
At the same time, there is only one crab hot pot brand in the mall, and this type of food is more suitable for young girls, which perfectly matches the mall's target customer group.
Wang Ping had never felt like she was carrying a sack of money before. She was incredibly envious when she heard Qin Xiaoyan say that her milk tea shop had monthly sales of nearly 20 yuan.
Now, the crab hot pot business she invested in is easily generating over 100 million yuan in sales per month. Based on profit calculations, it's generating over 50 yuan in net profit per month. After a year, Wang Ping will be close to achieving financial freedom!
"Oh, it's a pity I can't go back, otherwise I could celebrate with He Jie and the others!"
He Qing put down the pen in her hand, finally finished signing the last approval document, and then said, "Why don't you go back first?"
Wang Ping's eyes lit up. "Great!"
He Qing said with a playful smile, "President Chen is coming right away!" (End of this chapter)
