The system only arrives when you're old? Then let's create a super-rich family!

The moment those words were spoken, the entire CEO's office fell into a deathly silence!

Time seemed to stand still at that moment; you could hear a pin drop.

Shen Wanli's smile froze completely.

Everyone gaped, their faces filled with astonishment and disbelief.

Gu Lang frowned.

Buy the entire Genting Tower?

Did he hear that right?

This is a 128-story city landmark, a top-tier office building worth tens of billions, not a small shop on the street.

He just opened his mouth and said he wanted to buy the whole building?

He was highly suspicious that the other person was joking. "You just spout nonsense. Are you that rich? Do you even know how much the Genting Building is worth?"

Qin Zheng crossed his legs, placed his hands on his knees, and said in a slightly arrogant tone, "No matter how much it's worth, I'm going to buy it today."

Lu Cheng'an looked at Shen Wanli and spoke slowly, his tone filled with absolute confidence.

"Mr. Shen, my father's meaning is very clear: he doesn't want to buy a particular floor, but rather the entire Genting Tower. All the floors that have already been sold will be handled by our group. Now, it's time to discuss the acquisition contract for the entire building."

Gu Lang, who had been about to mock Qin Zheng, turned pale upon hearing the two speak like that.

Those who dare to speak like this likely have sufficient financial resources to back them up.

He bought one floor and wanted to show off, but the other person made a move and wanted to take over the entire building.

He suddenly felt like a clown, as if he had been slapped hard across the face.

Shen Wanli was startled and suddenly came to his senses. Looking at Qin Zheng, who had a calm expression but a dignified demeanor, he finally realized that the other party was serious.

But he couldn't agree.

"Mr. Qin, I'm so sorry!"

Shen Wanli's tone was helpless, even tinged with fear, "This entire Cloud Top Tower cannot be sold to you!"

Qin Zheng looked up, a hint of confusion in his eyes, and said, "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation."

Shen Wanli took a deep breath and explained in a low voice, "Mr. Qin, you are unaware that the Cloud Top Building is not my personal property, nor is it the asset of a private enterprise. It belongs to Jiangnan City Investment Group, a state-owned enterprise in Jiangnan Province. I am merely the president in charge of the building's operation and have no decision-making power to sell the entire building. Even if all of our senior executives agree, it won't matter!"

He paused, then continued, "More importantly, this building is a super high-rise with 108 floors and a height of 510 meters. You should know that China completely banned the approval of buildings over 500 meters tall ten years ago."

"The approval for this building's construction was secured by the top officials of the Jiangnan Provincial Government, who deliberately timed the process perfectly to ensure the documents were finalized at the last minute. It's not just an office building; it's a landmark of Jiangnan Province, a truly non-saleable asset!"

"If you want to buy, I can arrange for you to buy ten, twenty, or even thirty floors outright at the best price. But buying the whole building is out of the question. I absolutely cannot agree to that, and I have no right to do so!"

Shen Wanli spoke with heartfelt sincerity, and even beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. On one side was a top tycoon with 30 billion yuan in registered capital and abundant financial resources, and on the other side was a state-owned enterprise asset and a city landmark strictly controlled by the provincial government.

He was caught in the middle, unable to move forward or backward.

After listening, Qin Zheng's expression turned calm and composed, but his tone was assertive: "I don't care about state-owned enterprises or whether it's a non-sale item. I want to buy this building. Name your price."

These few simple words exude an air of wealth and arrogance, as if in his eyes there is nothing that money cannot solve.

Lu Cheng'an stepped forward and asked in a calm tone, "President Shen, could you first tell me the current market value of the entire Yunding Building?"

Shen Wanli was stunned. He didn't expect that Qin Zheng would still be persistent after hearing that the Cloud Top Building was not for sale, and even wanted to negotiate the price directly.

He felt helpless; if he didn't handle it well, he would offend such an important figure.

He hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and gave a figure: "Based on the current market price of top-tier office buildings in China, plus the landmark value of the planned building, the estimated value of the entire building is 530 billion."

In fact, Shen Wanli knew the standard price was 480 billion, but he calculated it based on the highest price, just to persuade Qin Zheng to give up the idea of ​​buying it out.

"600 million."

Qin Zheng didn't even think about it, and spoke casually, as if the 600 billion was just like 6 yuan, nothing to him.

Gu Lang gasped in shock.

600 billion, that's more money he couldn't earn in several lifetimes, yet this tycoon didn't even blink an eye, and even directly raised the price by 70 billion?

Such terrifying financial power!

Shen Wanli's heart was pounding, and his palms were covered in cold sweat. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but was interrupted by Qin Zheng's next words.

"650 million."

His tone remained calm, yet it carried an overwhelming aura.

Shen Wanli's breathing became rapid, and his mind was in chaos. 650 billion yuan was a price that far exceeded the value of the building itself. If the deal could be completed, it would be an astronomical sum of money for Jiangnan City Investment Group.

But he knew in his heart that he couldn't sell this building, no matter how high the price was, he couldn't make the decision.

"Mr. Qin, please don't add any more, it really won't work..."

Shen Wanli's voice trembled slightly. He was caught in the middle, torn between an alluringly high price and insurmountable rules, and was about to go crazy.

"700 million."

Qin Zheng's voice rang out again without any pause, as if 700 billion was nothing more than a small sum of money to him.

This time, Shen Wanli panicked completely.

700 billion!

It's a full 170 billion higher than the market price!

He could no longer maintain his composure. His legs went weak, and he almost fell into the chair. He quickly grabbed the desk for support, his face pale and his voice trembling with tears.

"Mr. Qin, please don't raise the price! It's not that I don't want to sell, it's that I really can't! This building is state-owned enterprise property, a landmark under the key control of the provincial government. Let alone me, a president, even the chairman of Jiangnan City Investment doesn't have the authority to sell the entire building. It requires personal approval from the top levels of the Jiangnan Provincial Government. Otherwise, even if you gave me a hundred billion, I wouldn't dare to sell!"

"Please, have mercy on me!"

He laid everything bare, revealing all his difficulties, his face filled with despair.

He was afraid of offending Qin Zheng, and also afraid of violating the rules and losing his secure job.

At this moment, everyone in the room except Lu Cheng'an was completely overwhelmed by this financial onslaught, their expressions stunned.

When Qin Zheng heard the words "approved by the top leadership of the Jiangnan Provincial Government," his heart skipped a beat.

He didn't press Shen Wanli any further. Instead, he picked up his phone, found the number that had called him last night, and dialed it.

When Chen Wenbin saw that it was Qin Zheng calling, he instinctively thought that his son Chen Jun had caused trouble at the Qin family manor, and his tone tightened.

"Mr. Qin? Did my son cause trouble at your manor?"

"No," Qin Zheng said bluntly, "Chen Wenbin, I want to buy the entire Genting Tower building. Does your provincial government have any objections?"

Chen Wenbin?

Upon hearing this name, Shen Wanli and Gu Lang were struck dumb, their bodies frozen in place, their shock turning into numbness.

Chen Wenbin, that's the governor of Jiangnan Province!

The man in front of me, dressed casually, actually called the provincial governor directly, and in such a casual tone, even asking for his opinion on buying a house in a commanding manner?

What a terrifying identity!

Gu Lang didn't even dare to breathe loudly at this moment, his heart filled with endless fear.

He actually dared to give the other party a hard time just now; now that he thinks about it, he was practically courting death.

Upon hearing Qin Zheng's words, Chen Wenbin, who was on the other end of the phone, suddenly felt a pang of anxiety.

"Mr. Qin, you want to buy the Genting Tower?"

He never expected that Qin Zheng would call about this.

What is Genting Tower?

It is a city landmark of Jiangnan Province, a state-owned enterprise asset, and a quota for a building over 500 meters tall that was hard-won ten years ago. It is absolutely not for sale!

But he dared not refuse!

Qin Zheng's Zhenshi Group, with a registered capital of 300 billion yuan, is a powerful company that had previously intended to invest in Jiangnan Province. If the refusal to sell the property leads to Zhenshi Group canceling all its investments in Jiangnan Province, then the new energy project that Jiangnan Province has been preparing for a long time will be completely scrapped!

That new energy project is related to the economic development of Jiangnan Province, his political achievements, and even the livelihood of the entire Jiangnan Province. They simply cannot afford to pay this price!

Even if I agree, it won't work!

The Yunding Building is not something he can decide on his own. Even if he is the governor, he does not have the authority to decide to sell this landmark state-owned enterprise asset on his own. It must be discussed by the provincial party committee standing committee, approved by the provincial party secretary, and finally reported to the central government. He alone has no say in it!

Chen Wenbin was instantly caught in a dilemma, neither daring to refuse nor agree, and could only try to stall for time with words.

"Mr. Qin, are you at the Genting Building now? I'll inform the Party Secretary immediately, and we can talk in person when we get there!"

"Hmm," Qin Zheng replied indifferently, then hung up the phone.

The other end

Chen Wenbin immediately dialed the phone numbers of Li Haitao and other high-ranking government officials, and briefly explained the situation.

Upon receiving the news, everyone rushed to Genting Tower.

The atmosphere in the CEO's office was extremely tense.

Shen Wanli and Gu Lang remained frozen in place, their eyes numb, their minds replaying the conversation between Qin Zheng and Chen Wenbin.

The governor didn't refuse; instead, he personally brought high-ranking officials to discuss the matter? And his tone was so respectful?

Who exactly is this Mr. Qin?

Seeing that the time was right, the assistant mustered up his courage, brought over another pot of brewed tea, and poured it for Qin Zheng.

The tea soup is clear and fragrant; just looking at it is a pleasure.

This tea is the finest pre-Qingming Longjing tea from Jiangnan Province, available in limited quantities. It costs 10,000 yuan per tael and is only served to national leaders and top dignitaries. It is truly a rare and precious tea.

Qin Zheng casually picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and raised an eyebrow slightly. "It's alright, just so-so."

So-so?

Shen Wanli and Gu Lang were shocked once again, their mouths twitching uncontrollably.

That's top-grade Longjing tea, costing ten thousand yuan per tael! And this big shot only calls it ordinary?

Is this the world of the super-rich? They were completely numb, too numb to even be shocked.

About half an hour later, there was another knock on the office door.

"Please come in."

The office door was pushed open, and Li Haitao, Chen Wenbin, Vice Governor Ma Hongming, and several other high-ranking government officials dressed in formal attire and with solemn expressions walked in one by one.

Gu Lang tactfully got up, made room for the sofa, and then stood to the side, his legs trembling.

Shen Wanli quickly stepped forward and greeted them respectfully: "Secretary Li, Governor Chen, Vice Governor Ma..."

Li Haitao and Chen Wenbin ignored Shen Wanli and walked straight up to Qin Zheng, their faces showing humble smiles as they extended their hands: "Mr. Qin, we are so sorry to have kept you waiting."

Qin Zheng nodded slightly and gently shook hands with them, his expression remaining calm.

Without any pleasantries, he went straight to the point: "Tell me, is the Genting Tower for sale?"

After a moment of silence, Chen Wenbin spoke first.

"Mr. Qin, to be honest, this building is a state-owned enterprise asset of our Jiangnan Province and a city landmark. It was only ten years ago that we managed to secure a construction quota, and according to regulations, it cannot be sold at will."

He paused, then added, "But we also know Mr. Qin's capabilities, and we understand how much Zhenshi Group's investment would benefit the economic development of our province. So, we are also trying to find a way, but..."

"It's alright, I can add more money. Is 800 billion enough?" Qin Zheng interrupted him, his tone calm, as if he would shout 1000 billion the next moment if Chen Wenbin dared to refuse.

Li Haitao smiled modestly and quickly said, "Mr. Qin, that's not what we meant. The Genting Building is available for sale, but we have two small conditions."

"Speak," Qin Zheng said calmly, his expression still indifferent.

"First, please make proper arrangements for all current employees of the Genting Building; second, we hope that Zhenshi Group can consider investing in our province's new energy projects."

"And the Genting Tower will be sold to you for 700 billion."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Cheng'an noticed Qin Zheng's brows furrow slightly. He stepped forward, shook his head slightly, and said, "Secretary Li, Governor Chen, aren't the conditions you've proposed a bit too ambitious?"

"First of all, our boss agrees to handle all current employees of Genting Tower properly. Those who are willing to stay will retain their original benefits, or even receive appropriate improvements; those who are unsuitable or unwilling to stay will be offered a 6n+1 severance package, ensuring that no employee is taken advantage of."

"Secondly, regarding your province's new energy projects, our master said that this matter will be discussed at his housewarming banquet. Governor Chen should be aware of this, so the matters we are discussing today do not include the new energy projects. Please understand."

"Finally, regarding the price of 70 billion, our boss's offer already demonstrates considerable sincerity. It's important to understand that the current market price for the Genting Tower is only 53 billion, and many floors have already been bought out or leased, requiring our Zhenshi Group to negotiate and repurchase them one by one. This expenditure alone will cost at least 7-8 billion, bringing the total cost to 63 billion. Our offer of 70 billion shows utmost sincerity. In contrast, your offers lack sincerity and are insufficient..."

Lu Cheng'an's words were clear and logical, and every sentence made sense.

He knew that the government would never refuse Qin Zheng's purchase of the Genting Tower; they would definitely agree.

If it weren't for the fact that the master is known for his extravagant ways, he would have even pushed the price down to 550 billion.

Qin Zheng looked at Lu Cheng'an with an expression of admiration in his eyes.

As expected of the head butler he spent 24 billion to hire, his abilities are indeed outstanding. He was just getting annoyed by Li Haitao and his group's exorbitant demands when Lu Cheng'an stepped forward to mock their arrogance.

It pleases me greatly.

Qin Zheng didn't care about paying more, but Li Haitao couldn't use that as an excuse to make additional demands.

Just then, Ma Hongming, who was in charge of economic planning, quietly approached Li Haitao and Chen Wenbin and whispered something.

"Secretary Li, Governor Chen, if Mr. Qin can really buy the Yunding Building and allow Zhenshi Group to settle in our province, such a large-scale project will definitely require a large number of high-end talents and technical teams, and various large-scale projects will be carried out in the future."

"This will not only boost employment in our province, but also attract top talent and businesses from surrounding provinces, completely revitalizing our province's sluggish economy and driving rapid economic growth. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"Moreover, Mr. Qin's asking price of 700 billion yuan far exceeds the building's intrinsic value. Even if we sell the building to him, we won't lose money. On the contrary, we'll obtain a huge sum of money that we can invest in new energy, people's livelihood, and other projects. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"

"However, the report from the Central Committee needs to be drafted by you, Secretary."

Ma Hongming's words were like a wake-up call, instantly enlightening Li Haitao and Chen Wenbin.

They only thought that Genting Tower was a landmark and not for sale, and wanted to make more demands.

But they forgot how much benefit Qin Zheng could bring to Jiangnan Province!

The 700 billion yuan Yunding Building, combined with the 300 billion yuan Zhenshi Group, will inevitably drive the rapid economic development of Jiangnan Province.

And their political achievements will also reach new heights!

In comparison, while a skyscraper is valuable, it is far less significant than the benefits Qin Zheng brought!

Li Haitao's eyes narrowed, and without further hesitation, he slammed his hand on the desk, the sound resounding:

"Sell!"
