Wang Jianlin waved his hand, interrupting, "I've said the reason more than once, but I'll say it again: Walmart is a Fortune 500 company. Our commercial real estate is just starting out, and we need such a large company to drive our influence. Most importantly, the rent can be guaranteed."

Have you forgotten how difficult it was for us to collect rent in the past?

"If you're going to collect rent, you have to find tenants with good financial standing who are trustworthy and won't default on rent payments."

"Wanda Plaza is the most crucial step in our transformation, and we absolutely cannot afford to fail, otherwise we'll all be finished!"

Lu Desheng opened his mouth, but ultimately chose to remain silent.

He knew that once Wang Jianlin made a decision, he wouldn't easily change it.

All he could do was help come up with a solution to the problem.

“Walmart… For a global giant like this, securing cooperation isn’t easy. If someone could act as a go-between, it might be simpler,” Lu Desheng said.

These words seemed to awaken Wang Jianlin. His eyes lit up, and he quickly took out his phone and dialed a number.

"...Mr. Ren, have you had dinner yet? The shopping plaza in Changchun is almost finished. How about I give you a shop as a gift? Haha, it's nothing, you're too kind... By the way, there's something I need to ask you, it's like this..."

"...Okay, so it's President Shen. Good, good, then please send me his number and I'll contact him right away. You go ahead and get back to work, okay!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Jianlin's expression had relaxed considerably.

Seeing this, Lu Desheng quickly asked, "Chairman Wang, is there a chance? Is President Ren willing to help?"

Wang Jianlin said, "Mr. Ren said he didn't have any resources, but one of his younger brothers has a wide network of connections. He mentioned Walmart to him and told me to contact him directly."

"Ren's little brother? Is that the Shen you just mentioned?" Lu Desheng asked.

Wang Jianlin smiled and said, "Yes, it's Shen Nansheng, known as the most low-key, most generous, and most ruthless angel investor in the business world in the past two years!"
