On the way back, Liu Jun always seemed to hesitate to speak to Li Jin.
Li Jin then said: "What's wrong? Ah Jun, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. We don't need to be too close to each other."
Liu Jun then scratched his head and said, "Brother Jin, did your previous attitude toward Director Huang make him dissatisfied? It would be more troublesome if it stumbles you in the future."
Li Jin smiled and said: "Ajun, I find that you are now able to figure out people's hearts."
Liu Jun said with some embarrassment: "Mainly because I'm with you, Brother Jin, I slowly learned to think about some things, but I always feel that I can't understand them."
"Then let me explain it to you."
Li Jin looked at the bustling night scene of Shanghai that was rapidly retreating outside the car window and said: "When we are dealing with Huang Jianquan, we cannot treat Huang Jianquan as an independent individual."
"He represents the Shanghai Municipal Government. As businessmen, we only do legal transactions and earn legal profits. The relationship between the two parties is cooperative rather than subordinate. Of course, I am willing to cooperate with the Shanghai Municipal Government in some places.
But they can’t just sit back and watch our difficulties.”
"Our attitude towards him tonight will appear word for word on the desk of the head of the Shanghai Municipality tomorrow, so this is actually my statement to the Shanghai Municipal Government."
Liu Jun nodded as if he understood, but he didn't know that what Li Jin said to him was the real reason why the entire Jin Qing system could take root in China and become the only giant aircraft carrier of private enterprises in the future.
"Brother Jin, why can you think so much?" Liu Jun asked curiously.
Sometimes he felt that Li Jin's brain was different from that of normal people. He saw mountains as mountains and water as water, but when Li Jin saw a mountain, he really thought of an entire continent.
"When you suffer too many losses, you will naturally think more about it." Li Jin said slowly.
In his previous life, he suffered a lot from being simple-minded.
Liu Jun was even more confused. Since he followed Li Jin until now, he has never seen Li Jin suffer from anyone. It was always him who suffered losses for others... But Liu Jun didn't ask any more questions. He knew that he had achieved greatness in his life.
Not at the level of Brother Jin.
Back at the hotel, Li Jin received a call from Huo Huanyu.
"Damn, did you have a great time in Shanghai?"
In the hotel in Asami City, Huo Huanyu, who was almost overwhelmed by the pile of project documents, asked with a look of jealousy.
Li Jin clicked his tongue and said, "There are beautiful girls all over the streets in Shanghai. It's a pity that you didn't come."
Huo Huanyu became more and more worried and threatened with a grimace: "Don't mess around. I won't say anything more about Su Wanqing. After all, it's still early for you to know each other, but if you continue to mess with my sister later, I will
My future uncle won’t be able to stand it anymore.”
"Let's get down to business, how's the matter about asking you to contact me?" Li Jin was too lazy to deal with this guy who was blinded by jealousy.
"I was just about to tell you that Morgan, the chief designer of Gensler Architectural Design Office, will lead his team to Shanghai to meet you tomorrow."
"But I'm curious why you insist on identifying their designs. Top design firms such as SOM and KPF are top design firms, so why don't you consider them?"
Of course, Li Jin would not tell Huo Huanyu that in his previous life, the design draft of this Gensler design firm was selected, which led to the world-famous Shanghai Financial Center Building.
"Although they are only the fifth-ranked design firm in the United States, their design capabilities are actually no weaker than the previous four. Moreover, design varies from person to person. There is no best, only the most suitable."
Li Jin explained casually.
"Okay, how many days are you going to Bangzi Country? Take me with you?" Huo Huanyu said sadly.
"The playground will be completed in two months, and the completion ceremony for the Nanlinjiang project will have been held by then. Don't go anywhere in the past two months, just stare at the playground." Li Jin rejected Huo Huanyu immediately.
.
Huo Huanyu actually knew his mission, but he was accustomed to resisting. When he heard that Li Jin was not happy, he had to give up.
…
The next day, Li Jin met Morgan and his team at the hotel.
"Mr. Li, with all due respect, you are much younger than I thought."
Morgan, who is over sixty years old, is the leading architectural design master in the United States. He has met countless successful people, but they are all about the same age as him.
This time, he received a large order from a mysterious Eastern country. Morgan thought it was a member of a family with an official background, but he did not expect that Li Jin earned his fortune by starting from scratch.
He looked at Li Jin with admiration, his eyes full of unpretentious politeness and appreciation.
Li Jin shook hands with Morgan with a smile and said: "Mr. Morgan, thank you for your compliment. I admire the Tianyu Theater you designed in Xinguo very much. I think that among so many well-known design masters in the world, you are the only one who truly appreciates it."
It perfectly combines technology and tradition.”
Everyone was carrying the sedan chair, and Morgan obviously enjoyed Li Jin's flattery. He said politely: "Mr. Li, you are so lovable. I think our cooperation will be very pleasant."
Li Jin smiled and invited Morgan to sit down and said, "Huo Huanyu has already made it clear to you via email about the situation around the terrain. I wonder how much time Mr. Morgan will need to complete the first draft design?"
Morgan's expression became serious and he said: "Mr. Li, you know, what you want to design is the tallest building in the world. A building height of at least 630 meters is a huge challenge for any designer. It is not easy.
."
"But the design fee of 120 million US dollars is not low, isn't it? What's more, designing the tallest building in the world is every designer's dream. Don't you want Mr. Morgan to go all out?" Li Jin said with a chuckle.
Morgan showed an excited expression on his face and said: "This is indeed very tempting, so we rushed here overnight. This time we need to conduct an on-site inspection. In addition, does Mr. Li have any specific requirements?"
Li Jin said calmly: "I will rush to Bangzi Country tomorrow, so I don't have much time. I have only one request, which is what you are good at, Mr. Morgan, which is to combine technology and tradition. I want a building that can
Skyscrapers that amaze the world.”
Morgan tentatively said: "The cost of such a building is very scary. Judging from the experience of our team, it is almost impossible without 15 billion Huaxia coins."
Li Jin rubbed his temples, Morgan's words pierced his heart.
He calculated the cost of building the building. 15 billion was still a conservative estimate. The entire financial center building in the previous life cost 17 billion, and Li Jin's budget was 18 billion.
This is just the shell of a building. Just a damper to resist the shaking of the building requires 200 million yuan.
The overall equipment procurement and decoration costs will cost at least 7 billion.
The investment of nearly 25 billion before and after is not something ordinary people can play around with.
