Chapter 2077 He's so awesome!

Lu Chengwen said:

"Lu Chengwen is indeed a good man, but isn't our sect leader also a man of great talent and ambition, with the spirit of a hero?"

Upon hearing this, the sect leader exclaimed, "Hmm, that sounds pleasant."

Lu Chengwen continued, "Although our sect leader is a martial arts practitioner, he has always been concerned about local economic development, paid attention to the pace of local commerce, focused on the people's livelihood and opinions in the north, and looked to the future of the next hundred years!"

The sect leader had just thought Lu Chengwen had caused trouble and wished he could kill him with a single blow.

Now I'm thinking, wow, this kid's got guts!

How does he know me so well? I just arrived!

The sect leader's old face beamed with a wide smile, and he said, "Xiao Wen, this is an honored guest. Why are you talking about these things with him? We're discussing business here. You don't understand, so don't talk nonsense."

"Yes, Master."

Chen Yong coughed slightly: "Here's the thing, firstly, we want to invest ten million yuan to build a commercial building on one of your plots of land. Our goal is to completely crush that Genius International in the area, surpass it, and become the largest, most comprehensive, and most high-end commercial building in the area..."

Lu Chengwen looked at him and said, "How big can a building costing ten million be? It's not nearly enough!"

Chen Yong stared at Lu Chengwen, stunned.

The strategist quickly coughed: "Ahem, Xiao Wen! No interrupting!"

Then he smiled and said, "President Chen, I'm sorry, this... he's new here. Our sect leader is kind and generous, and he's been spoiled."

"No!"

Chen Yong's mind raced.

Mr. Lu thinks I'm not ruthless enough!

Yeah! I've been afraid of losing these past few years, so I've become timid and don't dare to take risks anymore.

President Lu noticed!

So when I asked headquarters for funding, I didn't dare ask for too much, always feeling that I didn't deserve it.

Mr. Lu is really amazing. He saw right through me. This is to encourage me to speak boldly, and it's also to give me a sense of security so I don't feel pressured.

President Lu... he's a true genius!

Chen Yong quickly added, "Yes, this young man is right. To make this happen, ten million is indeed a bit too little. Let's invest twenty million!"

The sect leader's eyes widened: "Twenty...twenty million? Are you sure?"

Lu Chengwen, who was standing to the side, kept spinning around: "The amount isn't urgent. You tell us about the prospects of this project first, so everyone can understand it."

Chen Yong was stunned.

What does this even mean?!

The strategist coughed, turned around and glared at Lu Chengwen: "Xiaowen, you all go out first."

"Oh."

The sect leader understood.

Xiaowen seems to understand.

He immediately said, "Wait, Xiao Wen, you guys... cough cough, oh, let them hear too. Hmm... from now on, when I go out to do business, they'll have to be by my side as guards, so they can learn from me."

The strategist was extremely frustrated: "Yes, Sect Master."

The sect leader said, "The project you mentioned is..."

"Oh, this is what I'm thinking."

Chen Yong began his lengthy introduction.

Lu Chengwen secretly texted Leng Qingqiu from behind, asking her to send him Chen Yong's information and his project ideas for today.

Leng Qingqiu was surprised, but also very efficient.

Lu Chengwen was watching on his phone in the back, and when he heard Chen Yong say it, he immediately understood.

That's a fucking brilliant idea!

Lu Chengwen inwardly admired Chen Yong; he really knew his stuff.

Chen Yong's idea was to mobilize that multi-billion dollar cruise ship.

Make its route reach this side of the Se River, and build a small dock here.

This would no longer be just a tour around the Northeast coast, but a large-scale cross-border project!

In other words, people from the three neighboring countries can board ships here and travel to the four northeastern provinces for tourism.

But that's not the most important thing!

Most importantly, once this project is completed, it will be linked with tourism projects in Syracuse and other major cities in several provinces and cities, which will definitely boost border trade in this area.

The influence of Syracuse's Chengwen district is already beginning to emerge, and its future visitor traffic is sure to be substantial.

With such a large area, people from those four provinces will likely come here for tourism, shopping, investment... In short, there will be a lot of people and a lot of money.

Then, the dock here will be expanded, and once it is expanded... the controlling company will inevitably be Dasheng Group.

Foreigners sell a large number of foreign products, souvenirs, food and drinks, and local specialties here...

This is undoubtedly a huge economic boost for the previously lifeless border city.

Hotel industry, tourism industry, catering industry, small commodity sales, bulk commodity negotiations and port crossings...

Just think about it and be happy.

However, Chen Yong wasn't ruthless enough.

He was afraid that his plan was clearly the work of someone who had lost too much money, and that it was very conservative.

Chen Yong was afraid of failure, bad luck, and ultimately, he was afraid that if he talked too much, Leng Qingqiu would stop approving his funding and granting him authority.

Hehe, what a coincidence, I've been winning all the way, so I don't use that kind of extreme thinking.

but!

The sect leader and strategist were already excited.

Chen Yong continued speaking at length: "So, this isn't a business partnership between you, it's a lease. You lease the land to us, and we'll give you a corresponding profit share every year."

“That piece of land, those old commercial buildings, are not only dilapidated and worn out, but many light bulbs have not been replaced. Inside, there are a bunch of old men and women selling roasted sweet potatoes, shoe insoles, hardware, and sugar-roasted chestnuts... It’s such a waste.”

"Build it as a commercial building! The bottom fourteen floors will be a shopping mall, and the top seven floors will be a hotel, gym, cinema, amusement park..."

"At that time, after deducting management, property and other operating costs from all the rent collected, the remaining 30% profit will be yours!"

The sect leader and strategist nodded, clearly tempted.

The land belongs to me. If someone wants to use it, they pay me. This is a normal lease, so it doesn't count as us profiting from the name of ancient martial arts, right?

Moreover, with Lu Chengwen backing him up from the Jiang family, who would dare to ruin his business?

The strategist and the sect leader exchanged a glance. The strategist nodded, and the sect leader smiled.

"Ah...I see...um..."

Lu Chengwen laughed from the side: "How good can a building you built with 20 million be? Besides, we've given too little, haven't we?"

The strategist was furious!

Turning back, he said, "Xiao Wen! Do you even know who you are?! Get out! Shut up!"

The sect leader was furious: "I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, you see, I've spoiled my subordinates."

Chen Yong rolled his eyes and said, "Wait a minute, my friend, you said that 20 million yuan can't build a good house. Tell me your thoughts today."

Lu Chengwen asked, "Where are your... building plans?"

"Here it is."

The secretary next to Chen Yong looked extremely grim.

That ten million deal, this kid doubled it all! And now he's causing more trouble! So annoying!

Lu Chengwen began pointing at the blueprints, saying without looking up:

“The parking lot here needs to have at least two levels, right? When the mall becomes popular, everyone will have trouble finding parking, and you’ll be the first to have a headache about it. If it’s two levels, it will be barely enough, but the depth of the foundation and the material ratio will have to be recalculated.”

"This place. The surrounding environment needs investment. Your building's location is going head-to-head with Genius International, which is just two streets away! If you can't get out there first, how can you compete? What will you rely on to attract businesses? If you can't demonstrate your strength, why should those merchants believe you'll be the future leader of this city? There need to be surrounding buildings, trendy landmarks, green spaces, artificial fountains... Tear everything up here and turn it into a pedestrian street! Don't put any pharmacies or other clutter on this floor; move them to the south side, where there will be cafes, art galleries, and Western restaurants... The street traffic signs need to be discussed with the traffic bureau leaders; they need to recalculate and modify them for us..."

"And here..."

Everyone was stunned.

Only Chen Yong, biting his lip, kept staring at the blueprints and nodding.

The sect leader gaped, his eyes fixed on Lu Chengwen and Chen Yong. He leaned close to the strategist and whispered, "Awesome!"
