Chapter 187 [Senior Visits]

Jiancheng Real Estate Company is not a listed company. It is impossible to issue new shares and let Yang Quan sell the shares at a high price. The only way is to directly persuade Yang Quan and buy the shares from him, so as to successfully control Jiancheng Real Estate Company.

However, Li Wendi had just taken over Jiancheng Real Estate Company and had not yet had time to join the board of directors when he welcomed an unexpected guest.

This person is Chen Detai, the boss of Dachang Real Estate Company.

This person is of course a senior in the real estate industry, and he is relatively humble and low-key, not an easy person to deal with.

In fact, Li Wendi prefers to negotiate business with people with bad tempers, rather than with Li Huanggua, who is hypocritical, because it is difficult to guess other people's intentions, whether they are optimistic about the prospects of the business project, are trying to sell favors, or want to plot other things.
However, since Chen Detai had already come to his door, Li Wendi naturally could not avoid him. If the news got out, it would be extremely detrimental to his reputation.

"Mr. Chen, I've long heard of your name!" Li Wendi greeted him with a smile and was the first to say hello.

Chen Detai has already reached the age to retire and enjoy his life, but he is still busy in the business world and has a good reputation. Otherwise, Swire Group would not have cooperated with him to develop land. It can be imagined that Chen Detai has great ambitions.

"Hello, Mr. Li! I have wanted to invite a young man like you out for a chat for a long time, but I never had the time. I came to your house today, but I have something to talk to you about, Mr. Li. I am really a little embarrassed." Chen Detai said he had something as soon as he opened his mouth, which made Li Wendi a little uncomfortable.

But think about it, Chen Detai is old enough to be Li Wendi's father, so why would he speak like a peer?

"Mr. Chen is my senior. If you have anything to say, just give me a call and let me visit you directly. There is no need to travel all the way here." Li Wendi naturally had to be polite in return and lower his posture, which would be more advantageous when discussing things later.

"Mr. Li, you are too polite. I have something to talk to you about, so it is only natural that I would come to visit you." Chen Detai was still very humble.

The two sides sat down, clearly separated.

"I heard that Mr. Li bought 46% of the shares of Jiancheng Real Estate Company from Mr. Yang Quan. I wonder if Mr. Li can bear the pain and give them up? Of course, I will definitely buy them at a high price." Chen Detai smiled politely.

Hearing this, Li Wendi was slightly stunned. He really didn't expect that Chen Detai came to his house for Jiancheng Real Estate Company. Since he had already swallowed the food, Li Wendi didn't want to spit it out, but he still needed to be a little polite.

"As far as I know, Mr. Chen's Dachang Real Estate does not lack a Jiancheng Real Estate Company. I wonder if you could tell me the reason?" Li Wendi smiled faintly. He had remembered some memories about this matter in his previous life, but he was not quite sure.

"It's not inconvenient." Chen Detai smiled and said indifferently, "Jiancheng Real Estate Company is a key to the cooperation between Dachang Real Estate and Taikoo. In fact, I had already taken a fancy to Jiancheng Real Estate, but I just felt that it was not good enough. At that time, the real estate market was very popular, so I wanted to wait, but Mr. Li took the initiative."

"Is it a joint development of the Taikoo Dockyard?" Li Wendi finally confirmed this.

Chen Detai was a little stunned, then he smiled and said, "How did Mr. Li guess that? Did Mr. Li hear someone mention it?"

Li Wendi shook his head. "I'm just a rookie. How can I get the connections to inquire about this matter? I just remembered that Taikoo Dockyard was closed by Taikoo Trading Company last year and announced that the land of Taikoo Dockyard would be used to develop residential properties."

"Mr. Li is too modest. Being able to connect these two things, Mr. Li is more meticulous than many people." Chen Detai laughed, but his eyes were always fixed on Li Wendi, probably because he felt that the young man in front of him was not simple.

Li Wendi waved his hand, indicating that he was not worthy of the honor, and then asked, "How high is the price that Mr. Chen mentioned?"

Li Wendi believes that making friends with Chen Detai is more important than taking over Jiancheng Real Estate Company. After all, even without Jiancheng Real Estate, he can still find the next suitable target.

"I heard that Mr. Li spent 600 million to obtain 46% of the shares of Jiancheng Real Estate Company from Mr. Yang Quan. How about this, Mr. Li transfers the shares to me for 900 million?" Chen Detai suggested seriously. Li Wendi smiled and nodded, "Okay, then give 900 million to Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen's cooperation with Taikoo will definitely raise the reputation of Dachang Real Estate Company to a higher level. I wonder if I have a chance to take advantage of this opportunity?"

"To be honest, if Mr. Li wants to get involved, it's unlikely. I will only get some shares, and the bulk of the money will still go to Swire Group." Chen Detai's meaning was very clear. It would be difficult to give a share to Li Wendi. To put it bluntly, Li Wendi was not qualified.

"Haha!! Mr. Chen misunderstood. I know my own strength." Li Wendi laughed and said, "I have a construction company under my name. I want to contract some simple projects so that I can accumulate some experience. That's all."

Chen Detai was a little embarrassed, but since Li Wendi agreed to transfer the shares of Jiancheng Real Estate Company so quickly just now, it was difficult for him to refuse now.

"Okay, then I'll go back and discuss it with the top management of Taikoo. There shouldn't be any problem."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Chen!" said Li Wendi.

"Mr. Li is too polite!" Chen Detai continued, "Then when is it convenient for Mr. Li? Let's go to the law firm to sign the contract."

"Tomorrow!" Li Wendi thought for a moment and said, "What do you think, Mr. Chen?"

"Okay, then it's decided to be tomorrow."

The two sides chatted for a while, and Chen Detai took the opportunity to say goodbye and left the office.

"Boss, will giving Jiancheng Real Estate Company to Chen Detai affect our development plan?" Zhang Wentao said unwillingly. It is true that Dachang Real Estate Company is a large real estate company in Hong Kong, but it is difficult for it to directly threaten Changxin Real Estate Company.

"I don't know! Just find another 'Jiancheng Real Estate'." Li Wendi's face showed no joy. It can be seen that he didn't want to give Jiancheng Real Estate Company to Chen Detai. "Didn't we make 300 million yuan?"

Since Li Wendi said so, Zhang Wentao didn't dare to ask any more questions because he could see that his boss didn't look very happy.

"Then should we start with Capital Real Estate Company?" Zhang Wentao asked, changing the subject.

"How much money is needed to acquire Ducheng Real Estate Company?" Li Wendi asked with a sigh, as if trying to calm down.

"At least 2500 million!" Zhang Wentao glanced at Li Wendi and answered hesitantly.

Using 2500 million yuan to launch an acquisition may not necessarily be successful.

Li Wendi fell into deep thought. After acquiring a capital real estate company, Changxin Real Estate and China Entertainment Real Estate had no other plans to carry out the reservation. However, the 1.5-story Central Commercial Building was hard to come by and it was indeed difficult to give up.

"Let's look for other targets. Metropolitan Real Estate is too expensive and difficult to acquire."

"Yes!" Zhang Wentao said with a sullen expression.
