Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

In a short period of time, it defeated two major electrical appliance giants in succession and was able to come up with such a huge amount of money to participate in the auction, which shows the strong economic strength behind it, which is awe-inspiring.

Zhou Qi turned a deaf ear to the discussions around him and turned his gaze calmly to Tang Jiachen, who looked quite complicated.

"The land along the Huangpu River has great potential. Does Tang no longer consider competing? Or..." Zhou Qi paused deliberately, "Does your company think the price is too high?"

The room fell silent again as everyone realized that this was not just a simple bidding war, but a direct challenge between the two companies.

As an emerging enterprise, Hualong Real Estate dares to launch a direct challenge to old forces such as the Tang Group. It is really courageous.

The audience's eyes were all fixed on Tang Jiachen. Everyone was waiting for the response from the heir of the Tang family, wanting to know what choice he would make in this war without the smoke of gunpowder.

Tang Jiachen's face was gloomy. Facing Zhou Qi's challenge, he had the urge to raise the price. However, the reality made him powerless. Although the Tang Group was financially strong, he only brought 700 million yuan to Hai City this time.

Continuing the bidding was obviously not in line with the company's strategy, and his father would never agree. Reason told him that raising the price would only make him a laughing stock.

Moreover, as the organizer of the auction, the government is well aware of the financial status of each company. The 1 billion offer made by Hualong Group just now is obviously a trap.

Thinking of this, Tang Jiachen sneered: "Spending 1 billion to buy a piece of wasteland? That's crazy. Since you want this land so much, take it!"

These remarks not only devalued the value of the Huangpu River, but also affected the reputation of the entire auction.

But to be honest, many people present actually felt the same way. It was indeed too irrational to spend 10 billion to buy a piece of undeveloped land.

However, Zhou Qi was not acting on impulse. In his view, the country was vigorously promoting urban construction, and local governments were moving forward in exploration.

The value of this land along the Huangpu River has not yet been fully recognized.

By paying a sky-high price, Zhou Qi hopes to attract the attention of officials and all sectors of society, thereby accelerating the development and value enhancement of the area.

As time goes by, everyone will gradually agree that the Huangpu Riverside is worth at least 1 billion yuan.

Li Jiaxin saw through everything, and when she looked at Zhou Qi, an appreciative smile appeared on her face.

"Since there is no higher bidder, let's make the deal!" Zhou Qi said calmly, completely ignoring Tang Jiachen's existence.

This action once again surprised everyone present: Could it be that the purpose of Hualong Group was really not to set up a trap?

Tang Jiachen frowned, obviously confused by what was happening. Zhou Qi's sudden move made everyone present scratch their heads.

When the host heard Zhou Qi's words, he immediately regained his composure and announced enthusiastically: "Hualong Real Estate bid 1 billion... for the first time!"

He looked around, his voice full of anticipation: "Any higher bids?"

"Hualong Real Estate, one billion...the second time!" The host's tone became more determined.

The price of one billion is prohibitive and no one dares to compete with it.

"The third time..." Before the host finished speaking, the voice of "Deal!" resounded throughout the venue.

As the auction gavel rang, the host pointed in Zhou Qi's direction and said loudly, "Congratulations to Hualong Real Estate for successfully winning the Huangpu Riverside plot at a high price of 1 billion."

At this moment, everyone present had different expressions, and they all looked at Zhou Qi with curiosity.

Du Renliang seemed extremely excited. He believed that Zhou Qi was reaping what he had sown this time. Such a high land price meant that subsequent development would face huge financial pressure and would almost certainly result in a loss.

As everyone was discussing, the host continued, "Next, please invite the representative of Hualong Real Estate to come on stage to receive the project certificate and give a speech."

Normally, Zhou Qi would not speak on stage himself. But this time, he stood up calmly and walked to the front stage in full view of everyone.

When Zhou Qi took the microphone, he first expressed his gratitude, and then slowly said: "I heard a lot of discussions just now, and many people were puzzled as to why I was willing to pay such a high price.

It’s actually very simple. I believe that everyone participated in this auction because they saw the potential of the Huangpu area. However, I think this understanding is not deep enough. ”

This statement immediately caused a great shock at the scene. The implication seemed to be: Your vision is too shallow, only I can truly see the value of this land.

Tang Jiachen's mouth curled up slightly, as if he felt that Zhou Qi was a little too conceited. In his eyes, such performance was just like a novice who didn't know the immensity of the world.

I thought Zhou Qi would play some tricks, but he was so straightforward and ruthless. Hey, this guy is really a fool.

However, Zhou Qi didn't care about other people's reactions. After a pause, he said in a passionate voice:

“Many famous cities around the world have their own iconic rivers, such as the Seine in Paris, the Thames in London, and the St. Lawrence in Montreal.”

"These rivers nourish the city and its residents, become the soul of the city, and bring endless charm to the city."

"We are also proud to have two mother rivers in Hai City, the Huangpu River and the Suzhou River, which run through the city from east to west and from north to south respectively."

"The Huangpu River is the main waterway of Shanghai. It has two high and low tides every day. The water flow is gentle, and large ships can enter and exit with the tide. It is vital to Shanghai Port. As the pace of development accelerates, it will show extraordinary vitality on the global economic stage."

The whole place suddenly fell silent.

Zhou Qi spoke incessantly, his voice was persuasive, and his vision for future development was fascinating.

It seemed that in Zhou Qi's words, Haishi was rapidly transforming. The audience imagined a prosperous city scene: skyscrapers were rising from the ground and the economy was booming.

Zhou Qi was confident in his own views. He knew that no one at the scene knew the future blueprint of Hai City better than him.

In the past, the development on both sides of the Huangpu River was extremely unbalanced. Puxi was prosperous, but Pudong was like an uncultivated land.

However, as Shanghai enters the late stage of industrialization and its industrial structure is adjusted, high-rise buildings will begin to be built in Puxi, and the Huangpu River will change from a marginal line to the main axis of the city.

Subsequent planning positioned the Huangpu River bank as a prime location to showcase Shanghai’s core competitiveness, as well as a world-class city living room.

The price of ten billion may seem expensive now, but in Zhou Qi's eyes, the value of this land will only be more immeasurable in the future.

When Zhou Qi finished his speech, the audience was silent at first, and then Li Jiaxin led the applause, her smile full of admiration.
