Chapter 172

Chen Xiao was in no mood to deal with such a person.

Mr. Wu thought he was showing off, but for him, if he wanted to show off, he should find a good target. There was no point in showing off in front of someone like Mr. Wu.

Mr. Wu, you are too confident!
"Tao Yong, I have something to do. I'll treat you to tea later!"

Chen Xiao pulled up his pants and left. He didn't want to waste any time talking to them, including that Tao Yong. His patience had been worn out at the last class reunion!
Shit, is it appropriate for you to invite people for tea after peeing? The key is that you invited people for tea without even asking to take me with you?
Mr. Wu looked unhappy. Wu Fang did not give him face. Even a lousy salesman, Xiao Tao, dared not to give him face.

I threw the cigarette butt in my hand to the ground, and just then someone knocked on the bathroom door. It was the cleaning lady coming in to clean!
As soon as she came in, the aunt shook her head and said, "Who is so uncultured? This is a closed space and the smell of smoke is so strong!"

There is a designated smoking area in the office, and the ventilation fan in the bathroom is not effective in removing the smoke smell quickly. Mr. Wu was scolded by the cleaning lady and took Tao Yong out with a red face.

Mr. Wu wanted to try again with Wu Fang, knowing that the business deal would definitely not be confirmed today, so he mainly wanted to arrange a dinner with him to exchange feelings in private.

Chen Xiao happened to walk past Wu Fang, and Wu Fang watched him go with a smile on his face.

Mr. Wu and Tao Yong came over, and Tao Yong asked, "Does the leader also know Chen Xiao?"

Wu Fang had originally been unhappy with them, but upon hearing Tao Yong's question, he immediately asked, "Why? You know him too?"

Tao Yong immediately whispered, "He's my high school classmate!"

Damn, you should have told me earlier. Wu Fang’s face turned pale. He was afraid that Chen Xiao would find out that he had made things difficult for his classmates, and it would be troublesome for him.

Immediately, trying to make up for the loss, he smiled and greeted them, "Come on, let's finalize the insurance issue!"

"Sit here first, I'll pour you some tea!"

Mr. Wu and Tao Yong couldn't figure out what was going on. How come Wu Fang seemed like a different person in just a moment? Had he performed face-changing in Peking Opera before this job?
Wu Fang said as he brewed the tea: "This is my own tea, not tea for entertaining!"

Mr. Wu and Tao Yong were a little flattered. They had just sat there for half a day and hadn't even had a sip of Wu Fang's tea or a sip of boiled water.

Wu Fang placed two cups of tea in front of them and said to Mr. Wu with a gentle smile, "Mr. Wu, your company is quite strong and meets our requirements for partners."

Suddenly, Mr. Wu's face flushed with excitement. He said excitedly, "Don't worry, leader. Our company's compensation ability and compensation process are customer-oriented!"

Wu Fang nodded, thinking that he had finally made up for it, and Mr. Chen should not blame him anymore.

After the business discussion, Wu Fang found out that Tao Yong was Chen Xiao's classmate, and he wanted to keep him to chat for a whole day and a half night.

During the chat, Tao Yong asked, "Leader, is Chen Xiao here to discuss business with you as well?"

Wu Fang was startled and said quickly: "No, no, I don't know why he came!"

Mr. Wu snorted coldly and said, "Xiao Tao, your classmate is not very smart. He can't even explain things clearly when he comes to discuss business!"

Oh my god! You said he's mentally ill? Wu Fang gasped!
Tao Yong said: "It was fine when he was in school, but I guess he got beaten up by society after he entered society."

No, what's this? Wu Fang was confused. This classmate relationship didn't seem to be what he understood!
"Boss Tao, didn't you come here together?"

Tao Yong, Mr. Wu and Chen Xiao arrived at the square one after another, and Wu Fang just mistakenly thought they came together.

Mr. Wu snorted coldly and said, "Boss, no matter how bad we are, we won't get involved with him. Look at him, he's just a little jerk!"

Tao Yong didn't even say a word for his classmates!
Wu Fang was shaking with fear and stood up and said, "I have something else to do. Please go back!"

Mr. Wu and Tao Yong were stunned for a moment. Is this Wu Fang crazy? Why is he so hot and cold at times?
As they stood up, Mr. Wu asked, "Leader, what is the connection process behind commercial insurance?"

Wu Fang interrupted him directly and said, "Let's talk about it later."

"No, didn't we just agree on this?"

Wu Fang's face turned pale. Damn it, no one would have thought that the relationship between you two classmates is different from what I thought!

You said Chen Xiao is a little punk, you are finished, and you are still here to harm me!

"Hurry up and leave, I have something else to do!"

Wu Fang's face turned grim as he saw the guest off. As the two of them left the office area, Tao Yong said, "I'm afraid this guy has schizophrenia!"

Mr. Wu said, "Come back later. Today is a bit strange. Damn, it's mainly because of that classmate of yours. I feel unlucky whenever I meet him!"

Tao Yong smiled apologetically, feeling depressed. Why did nothing good happen every time he met Chen Xiao?

He didn't even think about the good things he had done every time he met Chen Xiao!
When Chen Xiao entered the conference room, Xu Jun had almost finished introducing the projects of Tianlong Plaza and Wanhong Plaza!
As he sat there, Xu Jun happened to be talking about the acquisition of the two plazas.

Both commercial plazas are collaborations between developers and business management companies.

That is, the business management company operates the business and pays a considerable amount of rent to the developer every year. The difference between the fees collected by the business management company from the retail merchants and the rent paid to the developer is the profit of the business management company!
These two plazas are both located in the best commercial areas in their respective regions. They are born with good genes, so these two business management companies are also making a lot of money!

Of course, developers make more money, and this kind of property is simply a goose that lays golden eggs. If you come across one in your lifetime, you will never have to worry about your life!

The developer of Tianlong Plaza is Mei Fang, a 63-year-old old man who usually keeps a low profile and does not have high daily expenses.

But he has a hobby, which is to keep a mistress!
Not only did he support his mistress, he also helped her run her business. It is rumored that the businesses of several of his mistresses suffered annual losses of several million.

The money he earned from this project was not enough to fill the hole. I heard that recently one of his mistresses tricked him into starting a portable CT project.

We have invested tens of millions, but we haven’t figured out anything yet. It’s a huge loss!
Because of this situation, Xu Jun contacted him and proposed to acquire Tianlong Plaza. He did not directly refuse and was willing to talk, but the price was a bit high!

Xu Wu asked directly: "How high?"

"17 billion~!"

This is indeed high, 2 million more than the original acquisition of Jiangzhou Wansheng Plaza. Although Tianlong Plaza is good, it is only comparable to Junxiao Plaza. 17 billion is indeed expensive!
"Is this price negotiable?"

Xu Jun thought carefully for a moment and replied, "The space won't be too large. Although Mei Fang is in urgent need of funds, it's easy to get a bank loan for this project, so he's not in a hurry to sell!"

Xu Wu was typing away on the computer on the other side of the screen, probably calculating investment returns. Chen Xiao found it amusing, but he didn't think about the fact that he had a keen eye, while Xu Wu didn't.

Perhaps because she had been paying attention to his expression, Xu Wu immediately asked, "Mr. Chen, where are your instructions?"

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "For a business worth more than ten billion, it's up to Mr. Xu to make the decision. No need to ask me!" He had actually looked at it with his discerning eyes and found that the rate of return on investment was not high, but as long as he didn't lose money on the acquisition of these heavy assets, he would be fine. He didn't expect to recover the funds quickly!
When Xu Jun and Zhao Hui heard this, their cognition was completely overturned. You don't even care about tens of billions of dollars, and you are a hands-off boss. Aren't you afraid of losing everything?

Wansheng Group is so powerful that the big boss never dares to say that projects worth hundreds of millions of dollars do not need to be shown to him.

You have directly handed over the tens of billions to Mr. Xu, but it can be seen that Mr. Chen trusts Mr. Xu!

Chen Xiao added, "My advice is, in the face of the group's overall strategy, don't worry too much about the details. It's just a small amount of money, and the rewards will be much greater later!"

Xu Wu smiled, knowing that Chen Xiao would definitely have this attitude. She said to Xu Jun, "Follow Mr. Chen's instructions. Go talk to Mei Fang. Once he gives me a bottom line, we'll immediately start speeding up the acquisition!"

Following such a domineering boss, Xu Jun felt emboldened and asked, "Tianlong Plaza is operated by a business management company in Shanghai. Their contract expires in six months."

Xu Wu knew what he meant and interrupted him, saying, "Tell them to either switch to Jun Xiao Business Management Company or lose their jobs!"

Awesome! Chen Xiao looked at the domineering Xu Wu on the screen and liked her more and more. This is the right taste!
"This case has passed, what about the acquisition of Wanhong Plaza?" Xu Jun said rather embarrassedly: "Wanhong doesn't want to sell. They say they are the best commercial plaza in Jiangzhou and even Hanjiang Province besides Honglong International. They have a leading position and will not sell!"

"Ha~!"

Xu Wu sneered and said, "Didn't you tell him about the sales figures of Junxiao Plaza since its opening?"

Thanks to large-scale PR activities and the investment of a large amount of cash subsidy coupons, the daily sales of Junxiao Plaza have increased by almost 100% compared with the same period since its official opening.

No matter how good Wanhong Plaza was before, it was still slightly inferior to Junxiao Plaza. I don't know where he got the confidence to say that he is the leader in the industry.

Xu Jun didn't dare to respond. How could he turn against someone if the business deal failed? What Xu Wu said was just an angry remark!
"How about this? Since they still think they are the industry leader, why don't they take over Tianlong Plaza first? After that, they can directly attack him with two Junxiao Plazas?"

Start a war? Xu Jun was confused. How to start a war?

Now the business structure has basically taken shape, and each square has its own fixed customer base.

Chen Xiao was at the scene and saw Xu Jun's confusion, so he chuckled and said, "Mr. Xu's intention is to use massive subsidies to attract customers who originally belonged to Wanhong Plaza!"

"Then it will be enough to give you an additional subsidy of 1000 million per square per year!"

An additional 1000 million? How come Mr. Chen and Mr. Xu treat money like it's not real money? Even if they are wealthy, they can't do this!
"If you can't get it at the negotiation table, get it on the battlefield. You can also fight and negotiate at the same time. If the negotiation doesn't work, beat him into submission!"

Xu Wu continued what Chen Xiao said!

Xu Jun couldn't help but feel aroused by the heroic spirit in his heart. With tens of millions of marketing expenses invested by the two bosses, if he couldn't defeat Wanhong Plaza, he, Mr. Xu, could write the story backwards!
After all, Wanhong Plaza couldn't possibly invest as much as they did.

Because the business management company of Wanhong Plaza relies on the difference between the rent earned by merchants and the rent paid to the developers as its profit.

Every penny they invest is their own profit, so their previous marketing expenses were even less than those of Jiangzhou Wansheng Plaza.

If it is true as Mr. Xu said, that each of the two Junxiao Plazas invested 2000 million in SP fees, plus more than 1000 million in PR activities to attract traffic, the fate of Wanhong Plaza can be predicted.

Either you invest a large amount of money to follow up and get dragged to death, or you get killed by direct customer flow diversion!
One can defeat ten skills with force. This is the simplest and most brutal method. It’s not that Xu Jun hasn’t thought about it, but it’s just inertial thinking. No one who does business would do this!
The two bosses were too arrogant, but Xu Jun really liked the feeling! It was so satisfying to throw money at people!

The boss set the tone, and Xu Jun's next actions had a direction. He just had to push it forward with all his strength!

Xu Wu had another meeting later, so after this was confirmed, the video conference ended!
Before the end, Xu Wu asked Xu Jun to take Mr. Chen for a good lunch. Xu Jun gladly accepted the order. This was a rare opportunity to communicate with the big boss!
And he skipped work under orders!

However, it was not yet lunch time, so Chen Xiao let them handle their work on their own. It was such a large square, and there were so many things to do every day, so there was no need for both of them to be here together.

Besides, Chen Xiao’s personality is very similar to Zhao Xiangjun. He also likes quietness and is not used to being accompanied by others!

In the end, Chen Xiao chose to stay in Zhao Hui's office. Xu Jun was very envious, but he knew that Mr. Chen was concerned about himself as the general manager and had many important things to do, which could not be delayed!

Sitting on the reception sofa in Zhao Hui's office, Chen Xiao jokingly asked, "Brother Hui, do you like the environment here?"

In public, he always calls him Mr. Hui or Mr. Zhao, but in private he calls him Brother Hui to show closeness!
"This kind of life is something I never dreamed of. What I envied most were those white-collar workers who worked from nine to five, who had a stable job and a good income!"

Zhao Hui is now familiar with Chen Xiao and knows his personality, so he has no burden when chatting with him!

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "We're just getting started. Our business has only just begun. What you think is the end today may not even be the beginning! Brother Hui, you have to keep working hard!"

Chen Xiao is the only son in the family and his only relative is a cousin. They have not been together since childhood and their relationship is not very close.

Zhao Hui is Zhao Xiangjun's biological brother. If he works hard, Chen Xiao will naturally support him strongly!
Zhao Hui was quite touched. When he first met Chen Xiao, he thought that Chen Xiao was already very rich since he could afford two high-end large apartments. He even speculated that his net worth might be over 100 million yuan.

A few days later, I saw him arranging for Xu Wu to acquire Jiangzhou Wansheng Plaza. Over ten billion was spent in a short time. It was shocking enough at the time!
Then he found out that his sister is actually a major shareholder of Yino Group and is worth billions. If even his sister is worth so much, then Chen Xiao must be worth over 10 billion!

As expected, just a few days later, news came out that Junxiao Investment Group planned to invest tens of billions to acquire "Junxing Automobile", transform the super smart factory, and build a new intelligent R&D center.

Today Chen Xiao said that this was just the beginning of his career, and he couldn't help but believe it!

Because whether it is the new energy vehicle industry, the commercial real estate sector or the retail sector, these are just the beginning of the layout, and each field has huge room for development.

When Junxiao Investment Group becomes the industry leader in all areas, what kind of monster will it be?

It’s terrifying when you think about it, and your thoughts are flooding in!

Zhao Hui sighed and said, "I only regret that I was so ignorant and incompetent before. Every day I worried about not being able to complete the tasks you assigned me. I let you and Xiangjun down!"

Chen Xiao laughed heartily and said, "We're family, no need to be polite! Keep working hard, I believe you can do it!"

Yes! Zhao Hui nodded heavily. He was becoming more and more calm now, and he could no longer say things like "I leave my life to you"!

But a gentleman will die for his friend, which is obviously engraved in his bones!
For lunch, Xu Jun arranged for Chen Xiao to have lunch at a private restaurant outside Junxiao Square. He had heard that Chen Xiao liked to eat local dishes!

The boss has been arranged to cook in person in advance, and the food must be cooked to the highest standard!
Chen Xiao didn't plan to eat here originally, mainly because he considered Xu Jun's feelings!

He was willing to have a meal with Xu Jun, which was a huge honor for Xu Jun and could boost his morale better than giving him a raise!

I have to say this is ridiculous. So many people are lining up to invite Xu Jun to dinner, but Xu Jun doesn't even give them face!
Because it was lunch, Xu Jun and Zhao Hui couldn't drink alcohol because they still had to work in the afternoon!
In order to set an example for his subordinates, Chen Xiao naturally wouldn't drink.

Several people drank tea instead of wine, but during the meal, Chen Xiao asked Xu Jun to go back and ask General Manager Xu to approve a few boxes of Moutai for Junxiao Business Management Company every month as entertainment wine.

It's not worth much, but it's a benefit that the boss gives to his subordinates!
You should know that although Xu Jun has no shortage of Moutai to drink, it was all bought by customers. In the past, Wansheng Plaza would not use Moutai as the company's hospitality wine.

The specifications of Wansheng Group’s regional company are only about 500 yuan for liquor!

Xu Jun just took this opportunity to express his gratitude to Mr. Chen, and after a few interactions they became familiar with each other!

During the meal, Xu Jun's phone rang. Just as he was about to hang up, Chen Xiao motioned for him to answer it!
It’s meal time, not a meeting!
Xu Jun looked at the incoming call reminder and found that it was from Xia Bin, the general manager of Four Seasons Clothing.

"Mr. Xia!"

"Mr. Xu, when is convenient for you, I still want to come and discuss the renewal with you."

Xia Bin has been thinking about it for a few days. According to the current progress of the negotiations, several signs on the first floor can basically not be preserved. The loss is too great. After thinking about it, he can only come to Xu Jun for help!
Xu Jun didn't ask about his contract renewal terms. He said, "Talk to Mr. Zhao about this. He has full authority!"

"Boss Xu, your Zhao Hui is deliberately stirring up trouble! We've been in the business world for so many years, and we've never seen someone like him take revenge on someone else!"

The restaurant was very quiet, and Chen Xiao and Zhao Hui heard Xia Bin's words clearly.

Xu Jun looked at Zhao Hui in confusion. He didn't understand why Zhao Hui was targeting Xia Bin, but according to the conditions Xia Bin said, Zhao Hui was indeed targeting him.

"How about this, Mr. Xia, I'll get back to you after I understand the situation!"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Jun said tentatively, "It's Mr. Xia from Four Seasons Clothing, talking about the renewal!"

Just as Zhao Hui was about to explain, Chen Xiao interrupted him and said, "Junxiao Business Management Company will not cooperate with Four Seasons Clothing on any of its projects!"

Xu Jun was shocked. It turned out that this was the crux of the problem!
At this moment he understood everything. Xia Bin, how could you be so capable as to offend this gentleman!
