The reason why Li Jiawei chose Xishi Construction Investment for cooperation is not complicated. After all, in the field of construction projects, Xishi Construction Investment has accumulated a vast amount of experience, and has handled every link from early planning to later construction very well.

Its work team is mature and complete. Each team member performs his or her duties and cooperates well with each other. When faced with various emergencies, they can quickly come up with appropriate response plans.

These advantages are particularly important for the current large-scale old city renovation project. Xishi Construction Investment's rich experience can avoid many potential risks in advance and help the project avoid detours.

The construction company under Universal Pictures focuses its daily business on interior decoration design and scene construction for film and television projects.

The business involving outdoor buildings accounts for a very small proportion, and there is almost no experience in large-scale old city renovation projects. Although Li Jiawei holds a large amount of funds, she is a layman in the actual operation of the project. Even with the assistance of Wei Jiaming, Wei Jiaming, like Liang Shu, specializes in the field of financial investment and lacks experience in building renovation projects.

Li Jiawei looked straight at Gong Yifei and said firmly, "Boss Gong, for an investment of 800 million, I can only give you 5% of the shares."

Gong Yifei looked back at Li Jiawei, his expression showing a hint of helplessness and determination: "Mr. Li, our company will continue to make additional investments in the future, and you only give us a mere 5%? This share ratio is really unacceptable to us.

And if we calculate it at this ratio, when we finally make a profit, our company will have invested a huge amount of money but will only be able to serve as a foil with no actual benefits. We can’t do this business.”

Li Jiawei listened to Gong Yifei's seemingly reasonable but actually sophistry words, and the anger that had risen in her heart slowly dissipated quietly.

She tried her best to suppress the anger on her face, and curled her lips into a meaningful smile, saying in a calm but measured tone: "Since Mr. Gong insists so much, it seems that I have no chance to work with your company this time."

Gong Yifei stared at Li Jiawei closely, a trace of urgency flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly said: "Mr. Li, you must consider it carefully! As far as your company's current qualifications are concerned, even if you have a lot of money, the relevant departments of the city will inevitably question whether you have the ability to undertake such a large project during the evaluation.

In my opinion, Mr. Li should change his mindset. Your company is well-funded and is responsible for the investment. Our company has been deeply involved in the construction field for many years and has no shortage of manpower, experience and technology. Our two companies work together and complement each other's strengths. This is undoubtedly an excellent situation of mutual benefit and win-win for both parties. It would be a pity to miss this cooperation. "

Win-win? But in Li Jiawei's view, this is just Xishi Construction Investment trying to "get something for free". At first, Li Jiawei was full of expectations for the cooperation with Xishi Construction Investment, but now seeing the attitude of the person in charge Gong Yifei, that enthusiasm instantly dissipated without a trace.

Li Jiawei responded bluntly: "Mr. Gong, although people, experience and technology are indeed valuable in this world, they are by no means as expensive as you think."

The negotiation with Xishi Construction Investment ended unhappily. After leaving Xishi Construction Investment, Qin Wen followed Li Jiawei closely. She looked worried and asked Li Jiawei, "Mr. Li, it seems that the cooperation with Xishi Construction Investment can no longer proceed. What should we do next?"

Li Jiawei took a deep breath, suppressed her inner annoyance, and said, "Let's go back to the company first and then make a long-term plan!"

Wang Minggui was extremely anxious when he saw Li Jiawei and her group leave. He immediately went to Gong Yifei's office to report: "Boss Gong, Boss Li and his group have already left."

Gong Yifei stood in front of the magnificent French window, with a tall figure, a lit cigarette in his hand, and curls of smoke rising. He leaned forward slightly, staring through the glass, staring downstairs, and asked without turning his head: "Did she say anything when she left?"

Wang Minggui hurriedly shook his head and said truthfully: "I didn't say anything special, I just politely said that the cooperation this time didn't work out, and I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate again next time."

Gong Yifei heard this and snorted coldly. A complicated expression flashed across his face. He smiled bitterly and sighed, "Next cooperation? If we don't seize the opportunity this time, there will be no next time.

The funding hole of our project in Donghuan is too big and we are in too deep. If we can't use this cooperation to quickly recover some of the losses and make up for Donghuan's deficit, the investigation from above will be suppressed immediately, and then none of us will have an easy life. "

Wang Minggui knew clearly that what Gong Yifei said was not alarmist at all. The Donghuan project was now like a bottomless black hole, constantly devouring the company's resources.

At the beginning, Xishi Construction Investment invested heavily and acquired a large piece of land in Donghuan in one fell swoop, expecting to build a high-end residential area.

Who could have expected that halfway through the project, they would encounter a thorny problem - an underground river. This discovery was like a heavy hammer that hit everyone in Xishi Construction Investment hard.

This piece of land is not suitable for building a community as originally planned. If we insist on pushing forward, it will be a big trouble.

First, the underground river must be properly dredged to divert the water flow to avoid erosion of the foundation. Then, the foundation must be specially reinforced, using complex techniques such as pile foundation to ensure the stability of the building.

At the same time, the groundwater and drainage systems also had to be replanned. If there was any mistake, the entire community could become a swamp during the rainy season. After completing these preliminary works, detailed geological surveys had to be carried out to repeatedly verify the feasibility of the project.

However, after this series of operations, the cost will increase exponentially.

Xishi Construction Investment has been stuck in a quagmire in the East Ring Project. The funds invested in the early stage have gone down the drain. Now the project is difficult to advance. The funds from their pre-sales of real estate have been misappropriated and invested in other projects. There is no way to get them back in the short term. The East Ring Project has instantly fallen into despair, and the shadow of suspension and unfinished construction is looming like a dark cloud.

If the Donghuan project is left unfinished, the consequences will be disastrous. The owners who were looking forward to moving into their new homes will surely be outraged.

By then, the owners are very likely to surround the office of Xishi Construction Investment, hang banners, and demand explanations, and the situation is bound to get out of control.

The city leaders were also keenly aware of the seriousness of the problem. For this reason, they issued a death order to Xishi Construction Investment with strong wording, requiring them to do everything possible to complete the East Ring Project successfully and not to slack off in the slightest.

Therefore, it is not that Gong Yifei and his people are shameless and deliberately want to take advantage of Universal Pictures, but the truth is that Xishi Construction Investment has reached a critical moment of life and death.
