Chapter 76 Inhumanity

"I don't know, but I feel like you're not very active today."

Liu Menglu said with her pink lips pouted.

"Men are only active when they are exercising or about to exercise. How can I be active if you don't play ball with me?"

Shen Yuan said with a smile.

"Shen Yuan, are all men as lustful as you?"

Liu Menglu asked with her beautiful eyes blinking.

"Why am I lecherous? I was talking about playing basketball."

Shen Yuan felt somewhat innocent.

Liu Menglu rolled her eyes: "Just forget it, you couldn't help it in the cafe that time."

Shen Yuan's mouth twitched, thinking that Liu Menglu would remember this for the rest of her life. He changed the subject and asked, "Why are you so free these past two days? Are you able to accompany me?"

Liu Menglu shook her head: "Not at all. For you, I postponed all those private lessons."

"Then how can I be embarrassed?"

"If you feel embarrassed, just treat me to a few more meals to make it up to me!"

"No problem. I can treat you to a few hundred million at a time."

"Stop coming!"

At noon, after having a barbecue, the two drove to the decoration company.

The several decoration companies recommended by Guan Shufang are all good. Shen Yuan combined the information he found on the Internet and selected two companies with Class A qualifications. Both are national first-class decoration companies with good reputation in Xingcheng.

The first company we are going to visit is Guanting Decoration Company, whose headquarters is located in a high-end office building in Meixi Lake. There are many residential communities around it, and several of them are newly opened. It seems that they have considered everything carefully before deciding to set up the company here.

The two parked the car in the underground parking lot and took the elevator to the 19th floor. The receptionist of Guanting immediately came forward with a professional smile.

"Hello, how can I help you?"

"My last name is Shen, and I have an appointment." Shen Yuan replied.

The receptionist's professional smile became more intense: "Hello, Mr. Shen, please come in."

"Ok."

Shen Yuan followed the receptionist into Guanting and took a few looks around. After all, it was a high-end decoration company, and the company's interior design style was definitely its first business card. From the lobby to the negotiation room, the decoration included a variety of elements, and the effect presented was both homely and exquisite and luxurious.

It was also Liu Menglu's first time to attend such an occasion. She followed Shen Yuan silently and couldn't help but look around the company. It did look quite high-end.

As soon as I arrived at the door of VIP Negotiation Room No. 1, a female designer in her forties quickly stood up to greet me and extended her hand enthusiastically: "Hello, Mr. Shen, I am the chief designer of Guanting, my name is Fu Zhengmei."

Most clients don't need a first-class designer, but the renovation budget for Shen Yuan's villa is 2000 million. To reach this renovation amount, based on the ordinary renovation of a house of about square meters, they have to make at least dozens of sets.

Therefore, Guanting Decoration dare not neglect such an important customer.

"Hello."

Shen Yuan shook hands with Fu Zhengmei calmly: "Let's sit down. To make a long story short, I told you all my requirements yesterday. I came here today just to look at the plan."

"Ok."

Fu Zhengmei helped Shen Yuan and Liu Menglu pull out stools, and only sat down after the two of them sat down.

"Based on your budget and needs, we have provided you with three styles of design options, all with renderings. You can take a look at which one you like best. We will first determine the style and then see what needs to be adjusted."

Fu Zhengmei opened her Macbook and then turned on the projector, showing Shen Yuan the renderings of the three styles: European, light luxury, and new Chinese.

If it is an ordinary customer, they will not provide renderings. If those customers have requirements, they will need to pay additional design fees.

But Shen Yuan has a budget, and this kind of customer must be served in an all-round way. The market competition is so fierce now, if you don’t do it, others will.

Once customers compare and feel that the service is not up to standard, they will not place an order here.

"Shen Yuan, what's your budget?"

Liu Menglu asked in a low voice. She didn’t know Shen Yuan’s budget yet, but looking at the renderings on the projector, she felt that each one was very delicate and beautiful.

"2000."

Shen Yuan replied calmly.

“2000 million???”

Liu Menglu widened her beautiful eyes, her expression full of disbelief.

The villa costs more than 10 million yuan, and the decoration costs more than 20 million yuan. The cost of living in this house is even more than 30 million yuan!
Damn, this is really inhumane!
She still rents an apartment for less than 3000 yuan a month, but other people’s houses have 4 more zeros than hers!

Liu Menglu still underestimated Shen Yuan. She initially thought that the renovation would cost a few million at most, but it turned out that the budget for the renovation was higher than the house. After spending more than 30 million, his net worth must be at least hundreds of millions, right?

Liu Menglu couldn't help but look at Shen Yuan a few more times, and suddenly felt that the previous methods were not enough. It seemed that she had to increase her efforts!
Shen Yuan looked at the rendering intently and didn't pay much attention to Liu Menglu's expression. Finally, he fixed his eyes on the new Chinese style rendering.

"Please introduce this new Chinese style."

"Ok."

Fu Zhengmei smiled brightly: "The new Chinese style combines the concept of modern simplicity, abandons the cumbersomeness and complexity of traditional Chinese style, pays more attention to neat lines, and the colors are mainly elegant and natural. The furniture uses traditional Chinese wooden furniture combined with modern technology."

Fu Zhengmei's introduction was very detailed, from the selected wood, to the lighting, to the functional areas, and the special craftsmanship required for this style. She explained everything clearly and understandably, so that even Shen Yuan, a layman, could understand it.

"Okay, let's go with this style then."

Shen Yuan nodded.

"Okay, this is a preliminary rendering. We will also come up with a specific plan based on your budget, with a breakdown of the specific costs of building materials and furniture, and then we will verify and settle the bill with you."

"In fact, you can use top brands for furniture and building materials depending on your budget."

Fu Zhengmei said with a relaxed look on her face. She felt that she was a few steps closer to the deal and she liked Mr. Shen Yuan even more.

Shen Yuan nodded: "Okay, I have also made an appointment with another decoration company and will go there later. I will make a decision after comparing your two final plans."

"Of course there is no problem with that. It's always better to compare prices."

Fu Zhengmei smiled and then said, "Do you have time tonight? Our boss Mr. Wan wants to treat you to a meal, and I hope you can come."

"Regardless of whether the subsequent transaction is completed or not, our General Manager Wan wants to make you his friend."

"Have a meal?"

Shen Yuan thought about it and realized that he really had nothing to do in the evening. However, it would not be appropriate to agree to it before placing an order with them.

"Mr. Shen, please don't feel burdened. Our boss simply wants to make friends with you."

Fu Zhengmei continued to persuade.

"OK then."

Shen Yuan felt that this boss was quite sincere and it would be okay to meet him over a meal.

"Then let's add each other on WeChat and I'll send you the hotel location. We can also discuss follow-up plans."

"it is good."

After chatting for a few more words, Fu Zhengmei sent Shen Yuan and his companion to the underground parking lot from the company. She did not go upstairs to the company until Shen Yuan drove away.

Such a rich man really needs to be treated well!
The decoration cost 20 million, which is more expensive than that villa. He is definitely not an ordinary rich kid!

After Fu Zhengmei returned to the office area, she knocked on the door of General Manager Wan Renmin's office.

"Boss Wan, Mr. Shen has agreed to have dinner tonight."

Fu Zhengmei nodded slightly.

Wan Renmin is about fifty years old and has maintained a good figure. Apart from some white hair and wrinkles on his skin, he looks more like a young man mentally.

"Okay, since we can have a meal together, the chances of closing the deal will be even greater. We can't let this kind of sponsor go somewhere else to close the deal, haha~"

Wan Renmin smiled kindly and said that making friends was indeed one thing, but what was more important was to complete the order.

The home improvement business is not easy to do now, especially such a large order of 2000 million is rare.

The gross profit of an order is about 30%, and the net profit is about 10%-15%.

However, even if calculated at 10%, it can at least generate 200 million in revenue for the company, so it is not worth it to treat customers to a meal to increase the transaction rate.

"This Mr. Shen just brought a woman here." Fu Zhengmei added.

"Are you boyfriend and girlfriend?"

Wan Renmin asked.

Fu Zhengmei shook her head: "It doesn't look like that."

Wan Renmin pondered for a while and said, "Let's invite Su Xuewei to dinner tonight."

Fu Zhengmei was slightly startled: "She is still an intern and has never participated in such social activities."

Wan Renmin waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. Sooner or later, we have to socialize. If we have a good chat tonight, you can decide whether to arrange the second half at Shang K or a bar. I heard that young people like bars nowadays. You can ask Mr. Shen what he thinks then."

"Ok."
