Chapter 1079 Spending a Lot of Money

At this moment, Chen Zhen was so surprised that she almost suffocated. She really wanted to escape from this hell on earth, but she seemed to be stuck in a quagmire and unable to get out.

The proprietress of the nightclub naturally looked at Su Ning in surprise, and then she looked at Su Ning rudely and asked, "Sir, I am the proprietress of this nightclub. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Suning naturally wouldn't get angry with a guy who looked down on others. Anything that could be solved with money was not a problem. "I want to take Chen Zhen away. Just name your price."

Sure enough, the nightclub's proprietress recognized Su Ning's accent and immediately assumed he was a northerner who had come to Shenzhen. "Sir, you must be joking. Human trafficking is a serious crime and doesn't exist in our nightclub."

"It seems that the boss lady is unwilling to give this face?"

"Handsome boy! This is Shenzhen! Even if you are a dragon crossing the river, you have to coil up for me."

Looking at the heavily made-up and arrogant proprietress in front of him, Suning was stunned for a moment. Isn't this the style of Li Li from Huanghe Road Zhizhen Garden in the original drama? He realized that the later Li Li might have learned from this woman in front of him.

However, Chen Zhen, who had not yet transformed into Li Li, became anxious. She also noticed that the nightclub owner ignored Suning, so she was worried that this would be another false alarm.

At this moment, Su Ning naturally ignored Chen Zhen's eager and anxious eyes. Instead, he tried to negotiate calmly with the person in front of him, "Boss, we are all sensible people. Chen Zhen is not the type to do this kind of thing. Forcing her to stay will only cause a big trouble. It would be better to just name a price directly, and everyone will be happy."

Then the proprietress of the nightclub revealed the real reason. "Handsome boy, let me tell you the truth. Chen Zhen has been spotted by a tycoon from Macau. You, a northerner, should stop having these wild thoughts."

Hearing that the boss lady had rejected him so firmly, Suning did not expect that this matter would be so troublesome, and realized that it would not be so easy to take Chen Zhen away.

Then, Suning didn't waste any more words with the lady boss. Instead, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. "Hello! Mayor Zhang, this is Suning! Can you help me?"

Mayor Zhang's smug voice soon came over the mobile phone. After all, he and Mr. Ran had been looking for Su Ning for a long time. "Mr. Su, if you have something to say, please tell me."

Suning naturally understood the significance of his call for help. He was sure to pay back Longda Electronics. "I'm currently at the Wynn Times Nightclub and discovered a fellow villager was tricked into the nightclub, so I want to rescue him and take him away."

As expected, Mayor Zhang handed the matter over to Mr. Ran from Longda Electronics, also implicitly reminding Suning of the price he would have to pay. "This is easy! I'll let Mr. Ran from Longda Electronics go over. He's the best at this kind of thing."

"Mayor Zhang, thank you and Mr. Ran very much."

Mayor Zhang then suggested continuing the negotiations. After all, he had learned that Suning had bought a ticket back to Shanghai for the next day. "Mr. Su, the natural scenery here in Shenzhen is very beautiful. Why don't you stay here for a few more days? That way, Mr. Ran and I can show our hospitality."

"Mayor Zhang, I'd be remiss not to do so."

Following Suning's call for help, the atmosphere in the nightclub box completely changed, and the tension from before was no longer there.

At this time, the owner of the nightclub next to her suddenly changed her expression. She didn't expect that the northerner in front of her had such a wide network of contacts and even knew the local officials. She wanted to speak up to ease the situation but found that Suning no longer paid attention to her.

Finally, the nightclub owner came up to Su Ning and asked, "Sir, do you know Mayor Zhang and President Ran?"

Suning, however, felt that there was no need to explain now. He had already paid a certain price. "Just wait! Someone will come to find you soon."

"gentlemen……"

Suning knew what his call meant. He might need to repay this favor with technology. You know, Mayor Zhang and President Ran were both eyeing plasma technology.

Sure enough, when Mr. Ran from Longda Electronics arrived at the nightclub, he directly gave the proprietress 20,000 yuan to let Suning take Chen Zhen away. However, the proprietress turned pale with fear, realizing that she had completely offended a big shot this time.

The complacent Mr. Ran naturally looked at Chen Zhen beside him. Although his face was bruised, it still couldn't hide his peerless elegance. "Mr. Su, you really have good taste."

At this time, Su Ning proposed hosting a banquet. "Mr. Ran, it's already late today. I will host a banquet at the Rich Man Restaurant tomorrow. I hope you and Mayor Zhang can come and attend."

"Okay! We will be there on time tomorrow."

Mr. Ran from Longda Electronics naturally understood what this banquet meant, and at this moment he was actually grateful to this short-sighted proprietress in his heart. You know, he and Mayor Zhang had no hope for this transaction.

After parting with Mr. Ran from Longda Electronics, Suning took Chen Zhen out of the Wynn Times Nightclub and took a taxi directly back to the Baoan International Hotel.

Soon, Su Ning brought the bruised woman back to the top suite where they were staying. Chen Zhen looked at Su Ning innocently and assured him, "Mr. Su, I will definitely return the 20,000 yuan to you."

So Su Ning looked at the woman noncommittally and asked, "Chen Zhen, do you really think 20,000 yuan can solve the problem?"

"This……"

"I made this call today, and it can be said that I lost a lot. Maybe you really will have to spend your whole life to pay it back."

Then Chen Zhen asked a key question, "Mr. Su, what exactly does this Mr. Ran do?"

"To put it simply, I have a technology they desperately need. I was planning to quietly make a fortune with it, but now I have to negotiate with Mr. Ran about selling it. Do you think I'd be annoyed and depressed?"

"I'm sorry! Mr. Su, I've caused you trouble."

"Chen Zhen, I know you hate it most when the world treats you unfairly, so I'm giving you a chance and right to choose. My bedroom door will always be open for you. The choice of whether to go in is in your hands."

"I……"

Then Su Ning took out a bottle of homemade ointment and handed it to the woman with a complicated expression, "Oh right! This ointment is very effective for your injury. After applying it, your injury will be almost healed by tomorrow."

"Thank you." The woman took the medicine bottle and said gratefully.

……

It was obvious that Chen Zhen was not mentally prepared. She did not go into the bedroom of the hotel suite that night. Instead, she slept on the sofa in the living room all night.

But even this kind of sleep still made Chen Zhen feel much more at ease. She no longer had to endure the inhuman torture of the past, nor did she have to worry about the dangers that might arise at any time.

You have to know that these guys in the nightclub are inhumane. As long as Chen Zhen stays in the nightclub for one day, the danger he will face will not change. He really might meet a beast who likes to use force one day.

The next day, Suning called the famous Dafuhao Restaurant in Shenzhen and booked a private room. Then he brought Chen Zhen, who had obviously recovered, to Dafuhao. Mr. Ran from Longda Electronics and Mayor Zhang also quickly arrived.

After the three of them exchanged a few simple pleasantries, Mayor Zhang looked at Chen Zhen behind Su Ning in surprise and asked, "Boss Su, I guess this is the beautiful woman you rescued last night?"

"Mayor Zhang, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you and Mr. Ran."

Then, Mr. Ran from Longda Electronics exchanged a glance with Mayor Zhang, then turned directly to Su Ning and asked, "Mr. Su, I wonder what you think of our proposal yesterday?"

"All technologies except plasma panel technology are transferable! However, Longda Electronics needs to exchange it for land in Shenzhen. I also want to register a real estate company in Shenzhen and build a plasma panel factory."

"This..." Mayor Zhang and President Ran looked at each other in bewilderment. Then, Mayor Zhang, still unwilling to accept the result, looked at Su Ning and asked, "President Su, why can't it be a complete plasma technology transfer?"

However, at this moment, Su Ning asked the two men with a half-smile, "Mayor Zhang, President Ran, you guys have to let me leave a pair of underwear, right?"

Mayor Zhang and CEO Ran naturally understood that Suning's concession was not easy, and CEO Ran soon began to choose the land for the exchange transaction. "CEO Su, we have an electronics factory in Bao'an County. We can directly exchange technology with your Su Group." "That's not enough! I heard that there are three plots of land going to public auction in Shenzhen this year. Our Su Group must acquire at least two of them. It would be best if all three were given to our group."

"This……"

"Don't worry! The land transfer fee will not be reduced by a single cent."

As expected, Mayor Zhang agreed to Su Ning's request without hesitation. "Okay! Each piece of land must be no less than 8,000 square meters, and then we will give it to you at a price of 5 million. So, Mr. Su, you have to pay our city government 15 million in land transfer fees."

"No problem! I'll go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau to register the real estate company tomorrow."

"Okay! What's the name of Mr. Su's real estate company?"

"Ningcheng Real Estate Development Co., Ltd."

"Ningcheng? There's a real estate company called Ningcheng in Hong Kong. Wouldn't that be a duplication of names?"

"Mayor Zhang, the Ningcheng Real Estate Company in Hong Kong is also a wholly-owned subsidiary of our Su Group."

"what?"

"In fact, if it weren't for what happened with Chen Zhen last night, I would have already taken the time to go to Hong Kong to register a home appliance factory. By then, my home appliance factory would have become a Hong Kong-funded enterprise."

"..."

Mayor Zhang and President Ran had not failed to investigate Suning in advance, but they had inadvertently overlooked Suning's industries in Hong Kong. Naturally, they no longer had the idea of taking advantage of Suning.

Although they didn't know why Suning didn't look for a foreign or Hong Kong-funded company, it didn't prevent Mayor Zhang and President Ran from understanding Suning's strength, and they were also inexplicably surprised by the sudden incident that happened last night.

After the cooperation and transaction between the two parties were officially finalized, the atmosphere in the box became much more lively, and all the conflicts were temporarily hidden amidst the toasts and clinking of glasses.

After three rounds of drinks, Suning finally looked at the drunken Mr. Ran and said, "Mr. Ran, I've already ordered three plasma wall-mounted color TV production lines overseas. I think Longda Electronics will choose to take over these production lines, right?"

"Is it brand new?" Mr. Ran had naturally heard that Suning was engaged in second-hand equipment trading, so his first question was to get straight to the point and express his concerns.

"Of course! This technology is unique in the world."

“How much is a production line?”

"This does not include plasma panel production lines, which cost 10 million RMB each."

"That's too high! The maximum I can give is five million per piece."

"Impossible! This price isn't even enough to pay the equipment manufacturer, not to mention shipping and customs duties. Besides, I'm using even more precious foreign currency overseas."

"This..." At this time, Mr. Ran of Longda Electronics was in trouble, and then looked at Mayor Zhang beside him for help.

As expected, Mayor Zhang was ready to act as a peacemaker. "Boss Su, Boss Ran, I think both of you should make concessions and settle for the eight million dollar deal."

"Nine million! If it's even a penny less, I'd rather pay the foreign equipment supplier for breach of contract."

Mayor Zhang turned to look at Mr. Ran with a depressed look on his face and asked, "Mr. Ran, what do you think?"

As expected, after meeting Mayor Zhang's subtle gaze, President Ran agreed to Suning's offer. "President Su, nine million per production line is fine! But Longda Electronics can only pay in RMB."

"Yes! This money will not flow out of the country."

"Haha, Mr. Su, I wish us a happy cooperation."

"Pleasant to work with."

……

The current Chen Zhen is naturally not the Li Li who had experienced many ups and downs in the original drama. Sitting aside and witnessing the business negotiations between Suning and Longda Electronics, he naturally clearly realized how much Suning paid for him.

So Chen Zhen, who had long been as hard as a rock, also began to soften. After all, how could she not be moved by a man who was willing to pay for her like this? In addition, Chen Zhen was an insecure woman, so she knew how to cherish him even more.

"Mr. Su, thank you! I will definitely repay you."

"Chen Zhen, meeting you last night was a kind of fate, and you will never leave me in this life, so I hope you won't let me down in the future."

"Yes! Mr. Su, but please give me some more time."

"It's okay! I'm very patient with you."

Suning knew that a forced melon would not be sweet, and Chen Zhen was a hurt woman, so he should give her more time.

Then Suning Group’s legal team came to Shenzhen, and on behalf of the Su Group, they officially signed a series of contracts with the Shenzhen Municipal Government and Longda Electronics, and officially took over the three plots of land in Shenzhen and the former Bao'an County Electronics Factory.

When the three production lines entered Longda Electronics for installation and commissioning, Longda Electronics' President Ran looked at Su Ning with surprise and said, "President Su, I didn't expect the production lines to arrive so quickly."

"Boss Ran, this is our first contact, and you will get used to the speed of our Su Group in the future.

"Haha, I understand! I wonder when Mr. Su thinks it's appropriate to put our Longda plasma TV on the market?"

"This is something you, Longda Electronics, need to consider. We, Ningyuan Technology Co., Ltd., are only responsible for plasma panels."

"Uh?"

Of course, Mr. Ran from Longda Electronics just asked the question out of politeness. He also understood that Longda Electronics had made a great deal this time. You know, plasma wall-mounted color TVs will definitely sell well once they are on the market.

So even if President Ran could hear the anger in Su Ning's words, he would not take it to heart. He thought that if Su Ning wanted to blame someone, it should be him who was too sentimental. It was not worth it to give up such a huge benefit for a woman.

However, Mr. Ran and Mayor Zhang did not know that "plasma technology" was originally a piece of cake thrown by Suning. After all, the future of the TV industry still belongs to LCD TV technology. Everything Suning is doing now is nothing more than a tactic of playing hard to get.

Because the electronics factory that Longda Electronics took out was also a ready-made one. After simply withdrawing the so-called backbone personnel of Baoan Electronics Factory, this large-scale factory belonged to the Su Group.

Immediately afterwards, the plasma panel production line entered the factory for installation and debugging, and Ningyuan Technology's large technical team also came with them, so soon industrialized production of plasma panels at the world's leading level was achieved.
