Chapter 199 The Use of Charm! (Monthly Ticket Request!!!)
Soon, a meeting was over.

Zhou Yue also knew some of their thoughts.

That's enough.

He's just a designer.

He doesn't care about other things, as long as Party A is satisfied.

After the meeting, Principal Long said he wanted to have a private meal with him.

He agreed.

"Principal Long."

"Teacher Zhou."

The two of them were polite to each other at the dinner table.

"Teacher Zhou, do you think this design can be completed with ten billion?" Soon after finishing a drink, Principal Long narrowed his eyes and said.

One billion?
How can it be?

Zhou Yue shook his head slightly. "How much it costs depends on what the client wants. I'm just a designer. I'll do whatever they want me to do." Zhou Yue smiled and said, "One billion yuan has its own way of doing it. It can even be shortened to 500 million or 500 million. I can still make the drawings well."

"But the budget is limited, so I can only design according to the budget, and the difference won't be that big."

Principal Long nodded.

Zhou Yue explained it very clearly.

"Half of the 2 billion yuan was funded by our school. We were planning to build some medical laboratories, but now this batch of funds has been withdrawn. They are going to spend 2 billion yuan to complete a 1 billion yuan project. Don't you think it's a bit strange, Mr. Zhou?"

"I believe Teacher Zhou has also seen their previous attitude."

Principal Long stared at Zhou Yue's face which seemed to always have a smile on it.

Zhou Yue nodded, but still smiled, "I'm just a worker, there's nothing I can do. Principal Long, just say whatever you want to say."

"But normally, 2 billion is a reasonable amount to build a campus."

Principal Long remained noncommittal and wanted to say something.

When the words came to my lips, they turned into, "I came here just to make friends with Teacher Zhou."

"Teacher Zhou is young and promising. At the age of 23, he has become the dean of the School of Architecture at Ningbo University. He has a bright future."

Zhou Yue's eyes moved slightly, and then he calmly clinked glasses with Principal Long.

"Principal Long must be drunk. Drink up the wine in your glass. I will take Principal Long back first."

After sending Principal Long back.

Zhou Yue is back.

Walking aimlessly around the hotel.

Looking at the shadow of the rainbow reflected in the river.

"Principal Long probably wants me to get involved in this matter, and he will promise me a very high reward."

Zhou Yue said to himself.

"But even if this thing blows up, Principal Long won't get the money back."

"If he does this and thinks this way, I don't know if it really makes sense."

"Even if I reduce the budget to 1 billion and finalize it, what's the point? Will the higher-ups return the other 1 billion to the school?"

Engineering.

That's it.

After all, the amount of money involved is too huge.

"However, fortunately, I have the charm bonus card, otherwise he would have really said it out loud." Zhou Yue smiled.

Zhou Yue didn't care that much about offending people. After all, his status was there. As a school principal, he couldn't cause any waves.

But this time, someone wanted him to come in person and then invited him to have a private conversation.

Moreover, judging from the attitudes of Principal Long and the senior officials from Party A's province.

It can be seen that this world is not so clear.

Too many people want to get their hands on this money.

Everyone attending the meeting today may not be that clean.

This is engineering.

The most important thing is not the project itself, but the owners of the entire project.

This experience still left a deep impression on him.

"These medicines are really useful." Zhou Yue exclaimed.

It's not just about averting danger.

Even made a friend. Although Zhou Yue knew whether this friend was sincere or not, but with this bonus card, he believed that they would become true friends.

On the riverside.

Zhou Yue hesitated for a long time.

Then turned back.

He took out the drawings from the day again and opened them to look at them.

"The main building costs more than 1 billion yuan, and as for the remaining miscellaneous items, it will probably cost about 1.8 billion yuan, so it may be meaningless for Principal Long to come to me today."

We have received quite a few opinions today.

This three-dimensional rendering was not made in vain.

At least make Party A satisfied with the design.

Principal Long was tempted as soon as he heard about his infrastructure investment worth tens of billions.

But in reality, after the construction is completed, there won’t be much money left out of the more than 2 billion yuan.

As for how much they could get from it, that was not something he could control.

the next morning.

Principal Long called him.

"Teacher Zhou, have you gone home yet? You see, I drank too much yesterday. I don't know if I said anything I shouldn't have said. If I did, I hope Teacher Zhou will forgive me."

"No, I hit it off with Brother Long yesterday, and we just chatted about family matters all night."

"That's good, that's good, Brother Zhou, I have a little gift here, please accept it directly, I will ask my assistant to send it to you later."

"No need, Brother Long, I'm already on the plane."

"Well, next time you come, I'll treat Brother Zhou to a meal."

"Okay, next time I'll let Brother Long pay for it."

After hanging up the phone, Principal Long breathed a sigh of relief.

But then he smiled and shook his head.

"This teacher Zhou is such a good person."

"We can't let him get involved in this matter. Besides, he's just a designer. What can he do?"

But then, Principal Long slammed the table heavily.

"If you don't let me make money, then no one else should make money. The campus was built on our side. I want to see how much you can make. Don't let me find evidence of you making money!"

This is the end.

Zhou Yue’s trip to Yunzhou City came to an end.

Three days later, he sent the revised drawings over, and everyone was extremely satisfied.

It has even been completely determined.

Even if there are any changes afterwards, they will be technical.

There will be no more differences.

Zhou Yue came back and briefly told Teacher Guo about the incident.

Teacher Guo said as if it was a matter of course, "He gave you money, why didn't you take it?"

"Wouldn't that be considered bribery?"

"Ah?" Teacher Guo said with a strange look on his face, "You are just a designer. Both Party A and Party B have to give you money, so just take it."

"What does this have to do with bribery?"

"If you don't take it, how can others take it?"

"But it's true. There should be more people like you in the circle. You have money and a background, so it's okay for you not to take it."

"What kind of background do I have?"

"Hasn't the principal always admired you? This is your biggest background!"

Zhou Yue was speechless.

Didn't he start by asking about the cost of the design? Why did he start discussing money?

But now he has begun to understand Teacher Guo a little.

According to Mr. Guo’s idea.

Just take the money if someone gives it to you, it’s not a big deal.

The main thing is.

Sometimes refusing money is much riskier than accepting it.
