A Lamborghini was surprised, but not frightened.

A batch of Lamborghinis? Good heavens, who's going to buy a whole bunch of them?

Although Lin Jian is the chairman of Lifan Commercial Management, it's possible he might buy his daughter a Lamborghini if ​​he spoils her. But buying a whole batch? That feels like a joke.

After discussing the car, Lin Ya asked with concern, "Has your [Lake and Sea Gathering] project been finalized?"

Upon hearing this question from the phone, Wu Hao gave a subtle, cold laugh.

【Lake and Sea Gathering】? This is my territory, I'm in charge. No matter how much money you have, it won't work here. He sat up straight proudly, a calm smile on his face, like a deity who holds the power of life and death!

Lin Ping felt a little embarrassed and coughed twice: "Not yet, sis."

He was about to explain that he was playing cards with Wu Hao, but Lin Ya interrupted him: "Such a small project, wasting so much time. I already said I was just here to say hello, but you guys had to show off!"

Lin Jian scratched his head. Wu Hao, who was opposite him, had heard his daughter's words clearly.

The two sat opposite each other, and he saw Wu Hao's expression change immediately, his lips turning icy cold.

He knew that people like Wu Hao might not be very rich, but deep down they looked down on merchants. From ancient times to the present, the traditional social hierarchy of scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants meant that they, as merchants, were utterly insignificant in the eyes of these people.

Lin Ping then whispered, "Sis, we're having dinner with President Wu. We'll talk about it later."

After ending the call, Lin Jian shuffled the cards to continue.
Wu Hao, however, had clearly lost interest. "President Lin, that's enough. It's time to eat!"

Lin Jian knew this guy was angry, so he didn't even care about his manners in front of the guests.

No wonder, Wu Hao invited him to dinner just for a complimentary lunch. It had absolutely nothing to do with respect for him. If this collaboration doesn't work out, they probably won't have any further opportunities to interact in their lives.

"President Lin, you are blessed to have a son and a daughter, both outstanding individuals!"

Wu Hao's words sounded strange, and Lin Jian knew that what Lin Ya had said on the phone earlier had displeased him. However, Lin Jian didn't care. If Wu Hao knew Lin Ya's identity, he would probably change his tune immediately.

In the Han River region, every unit that can support Junxiao Group will do so. This is the Han River's "treasure"—who would dare not support it? If Junxiao Group were to relocate, that would be worse than "treason." The people of the Han River, one spit from each of them, even if you're a great swimmer, it's no use—you'd drown!
Lin Jian pretended not to notice that Wu Hao was angry, and with a smile on his face, he sat down at the dining table next to Wu Hao. He said, "Not bad, not bad. My greatest achievement in life is that my child is doing well!"

Oh, you're getting proud of yourself now?
Wu Hao looked at him and asked, "What do you mean by 'the greatest achievement is having a successful child'? You, [Lifan Commercial Management], also have hundreds of millions in assets, and that's not as good as 'having a successful child'? Just how successful does that have to be?"
"President Lin, do you not value your career enough? Haha—", Wu Hao sneered twice.

Lin Jian laughed heartily: "That's not it. The fact that I've traveled all the way to Jiangzhou shows how much I value the company's business. I just hope that General Manager Wu can give us [Lifan Commercial Management] a chance to grow and thrive in the Hanjiang area!"

Wu Hao took out a cigarette, put it to his lips, and forced a smile: "Mr. Lin, you're too kind. You don't need my help at all."

Lin Jian didn't understand what Wu Hao meant, but then he heard Wu Hao continue, "President Lin's daughter should be very capable. Let her make an appearance, and it will save me the trouble."

Depend on--

So that's what happened. This guy is really petty; he eavesdropped on other people's phone calls and then publicly expressed his dissatisfaction.

Lin Jian was a little embarrassed. "Mr. Wu is joking. If Mr. Wu supports it, it would be even simpler!"

Ok?
Wu Hao was annoyed. What did Lin Jian mean by this? Instead of apologizing for his daughter's words, he—

According to him, it would be best if he helped, but if he didn't, his daughter could handle it, though it would take some effort.
Are you kidding me? Who do you think you are? No matter how capable your daughter is, can she ask me for anything? No matter how powerful you are, can you have as much influence on me as Boss Chang?

A disdainful smile played on his lips as he casually asked, "Mr. Lin, your daughter has started her own business? Which company is she the owner of?"

Lin Ya mentioned earlier that she bought a batch of Lamborghinis, which immediately suggests she's not a government employee. There's a 99% chance she's in business.

Those who are in business and speak with even more arrogance than Lin Jian have clearly gone out and started their own businesses. Otherwise, given the strength of [Lifan Commercial Management], they wouldn't dare to make such grand claims.

The assistant got up and poured water for Lin Jian and Wu Hao.
Lin Jian thanked him, then turned to Wu Hao: "He didn't start his own business; he's still working in Jiangzhou..."

ah--?
Going to work? A mere employee dares to spout such nonsense?
Huh? How could a wage earner afford to buy a whole bunch of Lamborghinis?

Wu Hao didn't think too deeply about it and couldn't help but chuckle, "Haha...haha—"

Lin Jian and Lin Ping were annoyed by his laughter. Was it really that funny? What a clown!

"Hey Mr. Lin, which company does your daughter work for? She seems pretty confident. How about we have her pull some strings for this project? I'm just saying, who knows, maybe it'll work out, hahaha!"

After saying that, he burst into laughter again.

He's in charge of this project, and whoever you approach, they need his approval.
Lin Jian's daughter spoke of the project as if she could definitely handle it just by asking, which Wu Hao found truly hilarious.
The waiter started serving the dishes, and hearing Mr. Wu's wild laughter from inside the private room, anyone who didn't know better would think he had gone mad.

Lin Jian's expression also darkened. Wasn't Wu Hao being a bit too arrogant? "Mr. Wu, wouldn't it be better if we could resolve this ourselves? Why must my daughter be involved? Right?"

Upon hearing Lin Jian's words, Wu Hao burst into laughter again: "Haha—haha—"

"Mr. Lin, I'm more interested in knowing which company your daughter is currently working for. I'd also love for her to say something. If she could help us decide directly, that would be even better, saving me the trouble of worrying about it—"

It seems that if Lin Jian doesn't speak, he won't stand for it! Fine, I originally wanted to communicate with you as an ordinary businessman, but you insist on forcing me.

"Mr. Wu, my daughter's name is Lin Ya!"

Lin Ya? Wu Hao suddenly felt that the name sounded familiar.
She works at Junxiao Business Management.

boom!!!
Wu Hao felt a sudden darkness engulf him, and his head spun. He remembered hearing the name somewhere before. A few days ago, he went to a meeting in the district and was told that the district's top leader had accompanied Jiangzhou's second-in-command to Junxiao Commercial Management for research. They were discussing with the newly appointed chairman of Junxiao City, Lin Ya, the construction of a new Junwu Plaza on the shore of Bailu Lake, and also hoped to introduce some luxury brands.

Jun Xiaocheng, Chairman of Junxiao Commercial Management!

In the Han River region, everyone gives this company a wide berth. What project wouldn't Junxiao Group fully support if it needed it?

More importantly, Junxiao Group never takes advantage of local conditions and doesn't need preferential policies, such as free land or tax exemptions.
Many projects that are supposedly supporting Junxiao Group have actually become projects that benefit the local area through Junxiao Group.

Such enterprises are the darlings of Hanjiang Province.
No wonder she sounded so relaxed on the phone. That's right, as long as she asked, the project would be a piece of cake.

What is Boss Chang? He may be a god in my eyes, but in other people's eyes, no, he may not even be considered a threat.

"Oh dear, I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, I was daydreaming!" Wu Hao suddenly realized what was happening, and his attitude completely changed.

The passion you feel right now is the real passion!
"President Lin, with this connection, why didn't you say so sooner? Chairwoman Lin Ya is the pride of all the people of Jiangzhou!"

Lin Jian chuckled twice. "At my age, this is the first time I've ever used my daughter to intimidate others. It's quite satisfying."

"Mr. Wu, my family is from Shanghai!"

Lin Jian got mischievous and started teasing Wu Hao, something that would have been unthinkable before. His implication was—we're from Shanghai, how did we become the pride of Jiangzhou?

Isn't this just nitpicking? Is this even the point?
Wu Hao, somewhat embarrassed by the situation, finally said after a moment, "Chairwoman Lin Ya has made tremendous contributions to the commerce of Jiangzhou. Although she's from Shanghai, we Jiangzhou people consider her one of our own."

Lin Jian had witnessed Wu Hao's "flexibility and adaptability." Damn it, he thought that businessmen were already shameless enough, but compared to someone like Wu Hao, they were nothing.

"President Lin, please give your support to this collaboration. The [Lake and Sea Gathering] project needs the professional guidance of the [Lifan Commercial Management] team—"

"Please feel free to name any conditions you require support from. I will do my best to meet them. If there's anything I can't handle, I will report it to my superiors and make sure you are satisfied!"

Lin Jian had expected his attitude to change quickly, but he hadn't expected it to be this fast.

Just a moment ago, I was the one trying to secure cooperation, while the other party was giving me bureaucratic responses. I simply mentioned Lin Ya, and the other party immediately started begging me for cooperation.

He knew that the other party wasn't asking for his help, but rather for Junxiao Business Management and to do Lin Ya a favor.

The 180-degree turn in his attitude was partly due to his previous disrespect towards him, and his fear that he might hold a grudge. If Lin Ya were to say anything bad about him in some situation, Wu Hao would be in deep trouble.

If, because of Wu Hao, Junxiao Group were to release information about the poor business environment in Jiangzhou, Wu Hao felt that he would be doomed.

For a moment, Lin Jian was somewhat taken aback. "I see. Then, what about the bidding process?"

oops--

Wu Hao exclaimed again, "President Lin, we're not very familiar with the tender documents. Could you please help us draft them?"

The bidding process still needs to be completed, but if Lin Jian is to write the bidding documents, needless to say, others have no chance at all.

He can easily impose a few restrictions, and all other competitors will become nothing but a roadside stall!
He was unfamiliar with bidding and tendering processes.
Disgusting, absolutely disgusting. How could anyone say that? Someone who frequently handles bidding and tendering says they're unfamiliar with the bidding documents.
Lin Jian, of course, wouldn't expose him and readily agreed to this "unreasonable request"!
The collaboration was finalized in just a few words, which was more effective than the two-hour business plan presentation in the conference room that morning.

"Mr. Lin, here, let me get you some water—" Wu Hao surprisingly took over the assistant's task, "I'll personally serve Mr. Lin—"

They were extremely polite to Lin Ping, saying, "Mr. Lin, here, have some water—"

Lin Ping had never thought much of him, so he didn't stand on ceremony and accepted Wu Hao's service without any hesitation.

"Mr. Lin, please come here more often to give us some guidance. Junxiao Commercial Management is a leader in commercial real estate nationwide. You are so young to serve as the deputy general manager of a project, so you must be very professional. Please share your expertise with us."

Damn it, does he even know how to flatter? He made me blush.

I only got to this position because of my sister.

Lin Ping could only give a soft "hmm," not even knowing how to be polite. From now on, I'm never talking to you, you old bastard, again.

After sitting down again, Wu Hao said apologetically, "I apologize for the poor hospitality today; we just had a simple meal in the cafeteria. Mr. Lin, are you free tonight? Would you do me the honor of joining us? I'll arrange a proper dinner—"

Lin Jian chuckled, surprised by the sudden change in attitude from arrogance to obsequiousness.

"Mr. Wu, I appreciate your kind offer, but I'm having dinner with my daughter tonight. We'll arrange things another time—"

Upon hearing the name of his daughter, Wu Hao instinctively sat up straight. If he were standing, he definitely would have instinctively stood at attention!
"Ah, I understand, I understand. It's been a while since President Lin and President Lin Ya have met up, so it's only right, only right!" Wu Hao screamed inwardly, "Invite me! Invite me!"

Although he knew in his heart that they wouldn't invite an outsider like him to their family banquet, he couldn't help but fantasize about the scene. This was Chairman Lin Ya, after all, someone even the bigwigs of Jiangzhou had to visit. If she put in a good word for him with the leadership, a promotion would be just around the corner.

Unfortunately, Lin Jian didn't mention the dinner party to him until the end of the meal. In fact, Lin Jian had never really considered him a threat. His previous politeness was purely for business purposes, and one should maintain a business attitude. Lin Jian was a self-made man; in the business world, he was capable of both taking risks and letting go easily.

Wu Hao escorted Lin Jian to the parking lot downstairs, waiting for him to get into a Rolls-Royce Cullinan and slowly drive away. His gaze lingered on the license plate number on the back of the car—Jiang A88886.
Judging from the license plate, the owner of this car is no ordinary person. The Lin family is from Shanghai, so this car clearly belongs to that Ms. Lin Ya!
Although she is the chairman of Junxiao Commercial Management, she is also a professional manager. No matter how high her position is, her income cannot support such expenses, right?

He bought a bunch of Lamborghinis, and he still owns so many luxury cars?
He thought of the rumors circulating outside, that Lin Ya was once known as the most beautiful woman in Jiangzhou's business world, and then he thought of the big boss of Junxiao Group, who was also said to be a very young man.

What kind of story unfolds when a young and handsome boss meets a stunningly beautiful subordinate? Considering Lin Ya's age and her high position, everything seems clear!
Wu Hao's legs felt a little weak, but thankfully he recovered quickly; otherwise, having offended someone like that, he wouldn't even know how he died. (End of Chapter)
