Fengcheng fliegender General

Kapitel 22

Boss Qiu's move was clearly well-practiced; his technique and strength were just right, and the check stopped precisely in front of Qi Qi.

Qiqi glanced at it and saw that it was 500,000.

"This 500,000 is my 'consultation fee' for Miss Yang, as long as you find out Gao Jinze's price range for me!"

Qi Qi shook her head slowly but resolutely.

Boss Qiu seemed to have anticipated Qi Qi's reaction and continued, "Actually, it's one million! I'll only ask your company, Xianzhi, to do a feng shui check on Tianyuan Apartment after I buy it. That way, your company can secure my next five million deal, and you can get the five hundred thousand commission that your manager Zhou promised you—if I don't buy Tianyuan Apartment—it's like your company lost a five million deal—you won't be able to explain that to your manager Zhou, will you?"

Boss Qiu spoke in one breath, took out his pure gold lighter, lit a "Supreme 95" cigarette that had once triggered the downfall of Zhou Jiugeng, the director of the Nanjing Jiangning District Real Estate Bureau, and squinted at Qi Qi through the thin mist.

On one hand, there was a commission of one million, and on the other hand, Zhou Haisheng was furious after losing a big order, which even cost him his job!

Mr. Qiu believed that this was a choice that required no thought; any normal person would make an immediate decision about which was more important.

Qi Qi remained silent.

Mu Feng didn't dare look at her, and was still slowly dealing with his crab claws.

Qiqi's eyes were bright as she slowly stood up and reached for the check.

Boss Qiu grinned.

Qiqi placed her hand on the check and suddenly exerted force.

The roulette wheel, carrying the check for 500,000, spun precisely back to Boss Qiu.

Then, Boss Qiu heard Qi Qi say, "You haven't bought Tianyuan Apartment yet, so you're not a client of our Prophet Company. As an employee of Prophet Company, I won't keep you company any longer. Enjoy your meal!"

After saying that, Qiqi turned around, calmly went out the door, and strode away.

When Qiqi arrived at the company early Tuesday morning, she was mentally prepared to be scolded by Zhou Haisheng.

Therefore, I felt completely relaxed.

Surprisingly, Zhou Haisheng was not in his office.

Song Yu placed two printed feng shui survey reports for Tianyuan Apartment in both Chinese and English on her desk.

Qiqi quickly flipped through it, was very satisfied, praised Song Yu a couple of times, and then sent him off to do his work.

Seeing all this, Weiwei was very unhappy. She deliberately made a loud noise with the chair and then strode out to the bathroom.

Zhou Haisheng didn't return until 2 PM.

He looked radiant, as if he had had a little wine.

Once inside the manager's office, Zhou Haisheng turned around and waved to Qi Qi through the crack in the door.

What's meant to happen will happen.

Qiqi picked up the Tianyuan Apartment report written by Song Yu and entered the manager's office with poise and grace.

Zhou Haisheng was busy turning on his computer while making tea.

Qiqi sat down opposite him.

Zhou Haisheng glanced at the computer screen, slapped the table excitedly, and exclaimed, "It hit the daily limit! That was spot on! Looks like my year is destined for great fortune! Hey Qiqi, did your mom buy Xing Technology?"

Qiqi said with a straight face, "I don't know, I didn't ask."

Zhou Haisheng, reeking of alcohol, leaned close to Qiqi and whispered, "Guess who I met at noon today..."

Qiqi kept a straight face and said, "I don't know, you didn't say."

Zhou Haisheng laughed heartily and said, "That Boss Qiu complained to me about you, saying you didn't give him face and that I should punish you. Humph! He really doesn't know what our relationship is, or how important you are to Xianzhi Company. What a joke! Ignore that nouveau riche. I'll introduce you to a new client!"

Qiqi was confused by his impassioned speech.

Zhou Haisheng took a big gulp of tea and asked, "Is Shanghai Wanjia Real Estate Company impressive?"

Qi Qi said, "Of course it's amazing! It's the number one real estate brand in China, everyone knows that. So you had dinner with people from Wanjia today?"

"Wanjia? Not good enough! Although Wanjia is powerful, in Shanghai, it is still not as good as another local real estate company... Dilong Industry, which is also a listed company!"

Dilong Industry!

Qiqi certainly knew that Dilong was listed on both the Hong Kong and Shanghai stock exchanges, mainly engaged in real estate and catering, and had Japanese capital background. It had been operating a real estate business in Shanghai for over twenty years.

In terms of national influence, Wanjia is indeed the number one real estate brand in China, but in terms of influence in the Shanghai real estate market alone, Dilong Industry is still above Wanjia.

Zhou Haisheng said proudly, "Today, General Manager Yan of Dilong Industry personally invited me to dinner at the Jinmao Hyatt. He treated me like an honored guest and wants to establish a strategic partnership with Shanghai Xianzhi to jointly develop three upscale community projects and two villa complexes. Just imagine how much that will cost!"

Qi Qi said calmly, "Congratulations, Manager Zhou. With a big company like Dilong Industry by your side, this year's performance target will definitely be exceeded."

Zhou Haisheng looked at her, sighed, and said, "You, Qiqi, yesterday we turned down a five-million-dollar deal, and today when I talked to you about a big client like Dilong Industry, you were still so lukewarm. Tell me, what are you interested in?"

Qiqi answered expressionlessly, "Work."

Zhou Haisheng smiled wryly: "Then what do you work for?"

Qi Qi said, "A person has to do something while they're alive. I work, and then I get the salary I deserve, peacefully and honestly."

Zhou Haisheng looked at her with that disappointed look in his eyes, not knowing what to say to her.

Qiqi presented Song Yu with a report written in both Chinese and English.

Zhou Haisheng took the report, flipped through it casually, and said, "The report is well written. You've made progress recently."

Qi Qi immediately said, "This was written by Song Yu. He's very capable."

Zhou Haisheng shook his head with a smile and said, "You, 'You never know how to hide the good in others, and you always praise Xiang Si to everyone you meet.' Your subordinates are lucky to have you. By the way, what about that Weiwei? Isn't she not very good? If she's not good enough, why not fire her?"

Qiqi hesitated for a moment and said, "Weiwei...it's actually not too bad. She's too young and not very organized. I'll teach her slowly. She's quite hardworking. We'll talk about it after her three-month internship."

Zhou Haisheng knew she would protect Weiwei, so he didn't say anything.

Zhou Haisheng looked at the end of the report carefully again and said, "Go and revise it. You must do everything you can to smear Tianyuan Apartment and describe the feng shui there as extremely bad."

Qiqi's eyes widened, and she asked, "Why? Except for Building C, there's nothing wrong with the other buildings in Tianyuan Apartment!"

Zhou Haisheng raised his voice and said, "Don't worry about this. Don't do anything today. Just revise the report according to my requirements!"

Qiqi refused to accept the report that Zhou Haisheng handed her.

Zhou Haisheng sighed and withdrew his hand, saying, "This is a gift for General Manager Yan of Dilong Industry... Actually, it's just a simple report to write and sign..."

Qi Qi asked warily, "Why would you want to ruin Tianyuan Apartment's reputation?"

Zhou Haisheng tilted his head and looked at Qiqi, clicked his tongue, and said, "You... I knew it. If I didn't tell you the truth, you would never write it down... The world is bustling, all for profit; the world is bustling, all for gain... You must know that the Wan family and Qianqiu broke up in negotiations on the Tianyuan Apartment project, right?"

Qi Qi nodded: "I heard Boss Qiu mention it last night."

"Dilong Industry now wants to buy Tianyuan Apartment."

Zhou Haisheng lowered his voice and said mysteriously.

Qi Qi smiled coldly: "So you want me to spread rumors to suppress the price of Tianyuan Apartments?"

Zhou Haisheng sat up straight and said, "Five hundred thousand, not a penny less. Five hundred thousand for a report, where else can you find such a good deal? But it has to be written very professionally and vividly, preferably in a way that ordinary people can understand."

Qi Qi slowly shook her head.

Zhou Haisheng knew that forcing her would be useless, so he had to think of another way. He said, "Then you can go out first. I'll contact you if I need anything."

Chapter 18: Turning Against Each Other The following week was unusually calm.

Qiqi casually does a few small feng shui projects and writes reports.

Originally, Tianyuan Apartment had gradually faded from her sight, until this weekend afternoon, when she was having coffee with Youyou at Starbucks on the first floor of Longemont.

"You know what? Actually, I wasn't too unlucky this year. Luckily, I didn't buy a house in Tianyuan Apartment, or it would have become a huge problem!"

"how?"

Qiqi was cutting a pancake when she casually asked.

She no longer cared much about Tianyuan Apartments; it was just one of many properties she had looked at.

"Originally, we were going to sell it to Shanghai Wanjia, and the agreement was already signed. We were negotiating the exchange with the owners, but the Qianqiu board of directors rejected it! The owners were furious and made a huge fuss every day. The price of Tianyuan Apartments also dropped by more than 2,000 yuan... Hey, I heard that almost every owner has a copy of your feng shui assessment report?"

"What appraisal report... I never wrote one."

Qiqi asked in surprise.

Youyou said "Oh" and then said, "Maybe I made a mistake... Because of this commotion at Tianyuan Apartment, the compensation for my apartment in Fenghe Shuiyuan is stuck at 16,000 yuan. Sigh!"

"How much is too much? Be content."

Qiqi tried to persuade her.

"Also, Jin Mingzhen has been placed under investigation by the Party's 'double regulation' (a form of internal party discipline), and the people from Beijing came directly to investigate. I didn't believe you when you told me last time. He actually illegally invested in the Fenghe Shuiyuan investment project. Isn't that audacious? Now I can wait for my compensation from Fenghe Shuiyuan in peace without having to put up with his attitude anymore."

Qiqi had almost forgotten about this person.

So I didn't continue the conversation.

Sipping her rich, aromatic coffee, the words "Tianyuan Apartment" stirred something within her once more.

It wasn't because of Tianyuan Apartment, but because of a man named Gao Jinze.

Is this man still in Guangzhou?

Perhaps, we will never meet again in this lifetime...

August 10th.

Monday.

rain.

heavy rain.

It was so big that it reminded Qiqi of that misunderstanding and appointment with Gao Jinze at the South Beauty restaurant in Zhengda Plaza.

Qiqi's heart also became wet with tears.

When she got off work, she dragged her somewhat heavy steps to the parking lot.

She looked down as she searched for her car.

As she rounded the pillar, she saw her white Beetle and also saw a person leaning against the pillar.

A man.

He is over 180cm tall, with a high nose and deep-set eyes like a mixed-race person, and has sharp features. He wears Dior sunglasses, Lee jeans, and Ariat cowboy boots.

Next to the Beetle, there was a black Porsche 911 Turbo sports car with a duckbill, round headlights, and a fastback design.
