Meanwhile.
After Lin Feng finished his video conference with Zheng Yan and the others, he sat in silence in his office for a moment before calling Huizi in.
"If I recall correctly, you’re in charge of the real estate side of the business."
This was the first thing Lin Feng said after Huizi entered.
Huizi was a bit taken aback, unsure what Lin Feng meant.
"President Lin, I am indeed in charge of the real estate projects..."
Lin Feng nodded. "Help me get in touch with some people in the real estate business, primarily contractors."
"I have a big project on my hands right now and I need some contractors and developers."
"I need you to prepare a bidding conference for me as quickly as possible."
Huizi was a little stunned by Lin Feng’s string of commands.
However, she quickly realized the main thing Lin Feng had on his hands was that plot of land.
This development contract was likely for that very plot.
"Right away, President Lin. I’ll get on it."
Huizi’s competence was beyond question.
She had always been highly capable, and she had become even more polished working at Lin Feng’s company.
The moment Lin Feng gave the order, Huizi returned to her desk and started making calls.
As the project manager for real estate, Huizi had a wide network of contacts.
But Huizi also knew that anyone Lin Feng would partner with had to be a reputable and capable construction firm.
She was the first line of screening.
After Huizi left, Lin Feng seemed to remember something, grabbed his car keys, and left the company.
「At that moment.」
In an apartment near the university.
Su Ruoxi was contacting the senior management of Dingsheng Real Estate Company.
The Joy City project was finally nearing completion.
Thanks to the redesign by Tian Xiaowu and his team, as well as the round-the-clock work from the various construction crews,
the Joy City project had managed to complete all its finishing touches before the deadline.
It was now in the inspection and acceptance phase.
At this stage, high-quality work alone wasn’t enough.
Sometimes, it also required the efforts of Dingsheng Real Estate’s public relations department.
Su Ruoxi was contacting senior management because she was concerned about this inspection process.
However, the project had many stakeholders, and once it opened, it would be a huge source of revenue for the local area.
So far, the inspection work had been progressing very smoothly.
"Good. Don’t let any mistakes happen during these final touches!"
"Once this project is completely wrapped up, I’ll treat everyone to a meal."
Su Ruoxi ended the call with a smile, then turned her head to see Lin Feng walking in.
"You’re back!"
Su Ruoxi walked over joyfully and hugged Lin Feng.
Lin Feng smiled at Su Ruoxi. "You look so happy. The Joy City project must be going well, right?"
Su Ruoxi beamed and nodded. "That’s right. The project is basically finished now. President Fu from the company just called me."
"He said the relevant inspections went off without a hitch."
"At this point, things are pretty much settled."
Lin Feng smiled and nodded. "You played a huge part in this project’s successful completion!"
Being praised by Lin Feng like that made Su Ruoxi a little shy.
"Not at all, it was the result of everyone’s hard work!"
Of course, Lin Feng hadn’t come back to see Su Ruoxi just to talk about the Joy City project, which was already a done deal.
"With this Joy City project, Dingsheng Real Estate should have recovered by now, right?"
Lin Feng asked casually.
Su Ruoxi nodded. "Once the Joy City project is completed, Dingsheng Real Estate’s reputation will have recovered quite a bit. Our old investment partners are starting to come around again!"
This meant that Dingsheng Real Estate would no longer face major limitations in its future project collaborations.
Although there was still a ways to go before Dingsheng Real Estate returned to its heyday,
this situation was something Dingsheng Real Estate couldn’t have even dreamed of just a month ago.
So, Su Ruoxi was already very satisfied with how things were now.
Lin Feng led Su Ruoxi directly to the study on the second floor.
He turned on the computer and said, "You should know about the plot of land I bought a while ago."
"They’re planning to develop the tourism industry in that area, and it’s already starting to attract some traffic."
Su Ruoxi looked at the map of Cyan Mountain Town on the computer, a thoughtful expression on her face.
The location of Lin Feng’s plot was indeed excellent.
Even Su Ruoxi, a relative outsider to this specific type of venture, could see that.
She heard Lin Feng say softly, "So the price of the land I bought has naturally gone up, but I don’t plan on just flipping it."
At that moment, a bold guess formed in Su Ruoxi’s mind.
"So, Brother Feng, are you planning to build something like a hotel on this land?"
Lin Feng neither nodded nor shook his head, simply saying with a smile, "A place this big is more than enough to build two Joy Cities. It would be a waste to only build a hotel."
Su Ruoxi nodded.
A pensive look crossed her face.
Lin Feng told her directly, "I plan to turn this area into a commercial district. It’ll make much more money than just a simple hotel!"
Su Ruoxi nodded when she heard this. "That’s true."
Suddenly, a flash of insight struck Su Ruoxi, and she understood what Lin Feng meant.
"So you want to give this real estate construction project to Dingsheng Real Estate?"
Her eyes lit up as she said this.
While Dingsheng Real Estate wasn’t short on partners now, it didn’t have many major projects on its plate.
Moreover, the quality of its existing projects wasn’t very high.
This was all a consequence of the previous upheaval.
If they could partner with Lin Feng now on this Cyan Mountain Town tourism land project,
the quality would naturally be guaranteed.
After all, Lin Feng would be overseeing it.
The name Cyan Mountain Town also sounded a little familiar to Su Ruoxi.
She picked up her phone and did a quick search. "So Cyan Mountain Town is that place you have, Brother Feng!"
Lin Feng nodded.
"That’s right. I have a big project to give you!"
"But I’m not giving all of it to Dingsheng Real Estate, as you suggested. You wouldn’t be able to handle it all."
Lin Feng said calmly.
Su Ruoxi was slightly taken aback, but she quickly thought about Dingsheng Real Estate’s current capabilities and the size of Lin Feng’s plot of land.
If it were Dingsheng Real Estate in its prime, it might have been able to take on this entire project.
But now, because of the previous turmoil, even if Dingsheng Real Estate wanted to take on the entire project by itself,
it no longer had the capacity.
Su Ruoxi sighed, a little disappointed.
It was a shame, truly.
Lin Feng knew exactly what Su Ruoxi was thinking.
He smiled and explained, "It’s not because Dingsheng Real Estate lacks the strength right now."
Su Ruoxi looked over, confused. "Then why is that?"
Lin Feng briefly explained the bet he had made with Zheng Yan.
"Right now, the people in Cyan Mountain Town want to get the tourism infrastructure built as quickly as possible."
"So they have certain expectations regarding the project timeline."
Having just gone through the Joy City project, Su Ruoxi understood this all too well.
In the latter half of a project, the deadline looms over everyone like a great mountain.
Anyone who could finish a project on time, or even ahead of schedule, was truly capable.
"Therefore, this job requires multiple construction firms working simultaneously, which is why I’m preparing a bidding conference."
"I’ll select a few reputable and capable real estate firms to partner with."
Hearing this, Su Ruoxi now understood Lin Feng’s intentions.
’Other real estate companies might have to bid, or even lowball their offers, to land this project. But as for Dingsheng Real Estate, since Lin Feng brought it up with me, he must be planning to bring my company on board directly.’
Su Ruoxi gave Lin Feng a flirtatious look. "Doesn’t this count as using the back door?"
