I'm in the county town, and you say I'm a big shot?

Chapter 299, Chapter 298: "I don't care how others play the game or what their rules are. If I'm going to do it, I'll do it my way!"

She could tell that Qian Weimin and Song Qingdong, who had been working in the real estate industry for more than ten years, naturally understood as well, but she didn't know that Fang Qingye knew.

But now is not the time to say that.

Fang Qingye didn't seem to be in a hurry. She consulted Song Qingdong, and everyone rejected Jin Chen Company's proposal. The discussion then focused on the proposal provided by Ju Shang Design.

“This proposal is very similar to one provided by a friend of mine in Anhui who works in architectural design, so I am quite supportive of it,” Fang Qingye stated first.

"But there are a few things I don't understand. Look at the design plan they provided: the top-floor duplex was advertised as 'buy one floor, get one free,' but the result is that they used a 2.2-meter ceiling height to partition off an attic, and then poured the floor slab for the owner after the inspection?"

"They actually squeezed the equipment platform into a semi-enclosed, covered area?"

"What's even more terrifying is that there's no budget for a backup power supply for the elevator?! No backup power supply? What if there's a power outage?" Fang Qingye said, pointing to the contents of the project cost budget.

"Chairman Fang, the national standards do not explicitly require residential elevators to have backup power supplies," Qian Weimin reminded him.

"Yes, I know, the government hasn't made any strict regulations about it," Fang Qingye said with a smile.
"That's not even as good as the neighborhood I live in now. A while ago, there was a city-wide power outage at night, and I even had to take the elevator downstairs. With this kind of management, 'Lakeview Residence' still calls itself the most upscale neighborhood in the city? Isn't it embarrassing to hear about this?!"

"And this is even more outrageous! They promised to separate pedestrians and vehicles, but the plan includes nearly 150 parking spaces! Holy crap, how are they supposed to separate people like this?!"

Fang Qingye bombarded the other three with a barrage of questions. The other three exchanged glances. At that moment, Qian Weimin spoke up, "Mr. Fang, what do you think?"

Fang Qingye took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Since we all agree that Jushang Design's plan is better, then let's strictly follow it! Let's not do things that are all talk and no action!"

Qian Weimin's face showed a slight sarcasm: "President Fang, do you know? This planning map is only for public release and filing. If we follow the plan completely, the construction cost will rise sharply, and we won't make much money."

"Then let's change it! Change the plan! Change it until we find a relatively suitable profit balance point!" Fang Qingye said without hesitation.

Luo Yan immediately understood. It turned out that Fang Qingye had no intention of using the three sets of blueprints commonly used in the industry; he wanted to do it the real thing!

Sure enough, Qian Weimin looked at Fang Qingye and said, "Let's be frank, you're not planning to use three sets of blueprints?"

"Yes, this is the only one! From design and construction to final delivery and acceptance, this is the only one! Once it's finalized, no changes are allowed without special reasons!" Fang Qingye's attitude was very clear.

Upon hearing this, Qian Weimin smiled slightly, his tone carrying a hint of sarcasm: "Oh, Mr. Fang, you want to change the rules of the game in the industry, huh?"

"I don't care how others play the game or what the rules are. If I'm going to do it, I'll do it my way!" Fang Qingye's tone was resolute.

Qian Weimin flew into a rage: "Fine. You'll play by your own rules? You're so great, so capable! Fine, I'm not playing anymore, okay? I demand my shares be withdrawn!"

“Sure, I, Tuofang Investment, will buy all of your Tenglong Group’s shares in Huacheng Development Company. I will also return the principal and interest to you for the 4 million yuan you have already invested in the Nanxinhu development project.”

Fang Qingye said coldly.

Holy shit, are you serious?

Qian Weimin was stunned.

He was just saying it in anger, but he didn't expect Fang Qingye to be so ruthless, not saying a single word to make amends.

Feeling humiliated, he snorted and left without a word.

The discussion turned out like this?
Luo Yan was caught off guard and stared blankly at Fang Qingye.

Song Qingdong seemed to have anticipated the current situation and was not particularly surprised. He took a sip of tea before calmly advising, "Xiao Ye, why are you so angry? Let's talk things out. As the saying goes, harmony brings wealth."

“I know that harmony brings wealth, but I will not back down on some matters of principle,” Fang Qingye said.

"You mean, construct exactly according to the design drawings?" Song Qingdong asked again. "Yes, that's the bottom line. We can revise the drawings and find a balance of interests, but once it's decided, we'll do it according to the drawings!"

"Well then, everyone calm down, go back and think it over, and we can discuss it in a couple of days, okay?" Song Qingdong said again.

"can."

The three left one after another. As Fang Qingye went downstairs to get into her car, she suddenly heard Luo Yan, who was walking behind her, call out, "Chairman Fang."

Fang Qingye turned her head away, and Luo Yan hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

"Mr. Luo, please speak frankly."

"I agree with your idea, but..."

"No buts. At worst, I'll do this project all by myself! You think I can't build houses? Fine, I won't build them! I'll just sell these 300 acres of land!"

After Fang Qingye finished speaking, she got into the car and drove away.

Back home, Fang Qingye lay in bed and video chatted with Xia He, telling her about what happened that evening.

"Qingye, it's rare to see you so angry," Xia He said with a smile.

"These two old foxes, how can we not teach them a lesson?" Fang Qingye said with a smile.

"Based on what you just said, I think Qian Weimin has indicated that he wants to use the so-called three-set blueprint method, Song Qingdong is hesitant, and Luo Yan, she doesn't have any shares and is just an employee, she will probably support your idea, genuine products sell better," Xia He analyzed.

"Correct."

"So what are you planning to do next?" Xia He asked again.

"I've already spread the word. What I just told Luo Yan, she'll probably tell Song Qingdong. Song Qingdong will also pass it on to Qian Weimin. That's the attitude! If they won't do it, I'll do it alone!"

"Is there another possibility that the three of them might team up, agree to Jushang Design's proposal, and kick you out?" Xia He asked another question.

"Kick me out?" Fang Qingye snorted coldly: "Fine, I'll expose their so-called three sets of blueprints and let the consumers judge!"

"So you're flipping the table? Then nobody's going to have fun anymore," Xia He laughed again.

"Then let's not play around. Anyway, my focus isn't on real estate!" Fang Qingye said indifferently.

"I reckon they probably won't," Xia He added.

“You were the instigator of the Nanxinhu project. County and city leaders are all praising you as a model for building our hometown and an entrepreneur of the new era. If you suddenly withdraw, I estimate the county will not allow it.”

"Then let Song Qingdong and Qian Weimin think it over carefully!"

As expected, Luo Yan called Song Qingdong and told him what Fang Qingye had said before she left.

"Did he really say that?" Song Qingdong frowned slightly.

"Yes, absolutely true."

"This guy is ruthless!" Song Qingdong gave a wry smile: "Okay, I understand."

After hanging up Luo Yan's call, Song Qingdong thought for a moment and then dialed Qian Weimin's number.
