Chapter 656 Congratulations
The members of the other two rival teams were convinced of their defeat. If they had not seen such a special design with their own eyes today, they might never have imagined that there could be such a high-end design.
People who can afford to lose are admirable. The two captains of the opposing team did not show any discouragement at all. They stood up and walked to Ma Jinkun.
After all, they are in the same industry. Even though they have never met each other, they have heard of each other.
The captain of the first team extended his right hand towards Ma Jinkun in a friendly manner.
"Master Ma, congratulations."
Although this is a team honor, Ma Jinkun does not want to take away the credit from his disciples.
While shaking hands with the other party, he did not forget to introduce Tan Chen.
"This is my last disciple. He was the one who came up with the idea for the glass house."
The two captains thought that such a good idea must be the masterpiece of Master Ma Jinkun. Unexpectedly, he clarified the facts himself and found that the design was actually thought up by the young man who explained the design drawings.
"Hahahaha... the disciple is truly better than the master..."
After some pleasantries, the people from the first two teams said goodbye and left when they saw that there was nothing else for them to do.
At this moment, only the organizer and Ma Jinkun's team were left in the conference room.
Mr. Feng asked his secretary to make tea as he was going to discuss the details with Master Ma Jinkun.
The price was made clear before the bidding, it was definitely 300,000.
The main reason why Mr. Feng kept everyone to discuss in detail was the glass house designed by Tan Chen.
No one has ever built this kind of house, so he was worried that even if he got the blueprints, he would not be able to build it without professional guidance.
So, Mr. Feng got straight to the point.
“Master Ma, have you ever built a glass house?”
Ma Jinkun answered truthfully, "Don't worry about Mr. Feng making fun of you. The idea of this glass house was thought up by my young disciple. It would be better for you to ask him."
If you don’t understand, you don’t understand. Ma Jinkun doesn’t want to pretend to be knowledgeable here.
Director Feng was obviously surprised. Among the five apprentices brought by Ma Jinkun, only the one who was responsible for the explanation just now was the youngest. Unexpectedly, it was he who came up with this idea.
After the shock, Mr. Feng looked at Tan Chen with a very gentle attitude, as if he was facing a junior.
"Young man, since you designed this glass house and glass passage, you can surely build it, right?"
Tan Chen was not surprised at all by Mr. Feng's question. After all, he had tested his teacher and four senior brothers when drawing the blueprints for this kind of glass house and glass passage. They could only understand the appearance. As for the construction method, they would probably have to see it before they could know.
"Mr. Feng, since I can design the glass house and glass passage, I can naturally build it."
Mr. Feng was overjoyed after hearing this. He was an architect by background and had just been thinking about it for a long time but couldn't figure out how to build this glass house.
I guess only the person who designed this house could build it.
"In that case, can I entrust this young man to stay with me and be responsible for directing the construction of the glass house?"
At this moment, Tan Chen has become a seasoned businessman.
He looked at Mr. Feng with a smile, but did not answer immediately.
Director Feng seemed to realize something and quickly added, "Of course, we can discuss your remuneration."
Tan Chen shook his head: "No, I don't need any reward."
Now, not only Mr. Feng didn't understand what he meant, but even Ma Jinkun and others were a little confused.
I thought: Tan Chen must have been so excited that he pushed the money away...
Just when everyone was suspicious, Tan Chen continued, "Mr. Feng, to be honest, I also do some small business in the construction industry, but I never charge any fees. I contract the entire business."
"Overall contracting?" Mr. Feng became interested. He was still unfamiliar with this new term.
Tan Chen continued to explain.
"Turnkey contracting means that for a project, both parties agree on a price, and I am responsible for everything, including labor and materials. The other party only needs to wait for acceptance."
It was the first time that Mr. Feng heard of this way of doing business, and he showed great interest.
"Oh? Can you tell me the details?"
For Tan Chen, contracting the construction of glass houses and glass passages was similar to contracting the decoration of courtyard houses, so Tan Chen carefully explained some of the contracting details to Mr. Feng.
Mr. Feng became more and more interested the more he listened.
"That's a good idea. The young man is young, but he's really smart."
Tan Chen smiled and said nothing more.
In such a sure-win business, if you act too proactively, your interests will definitely be damaged.
Mr. Feng was no pushover either. He had wanted to wait for Tan Chen to bring up the price issue first, but he didn't expect that after he introduced the concept of contracting, he stopped talking.
Even this old ginger of his didn't seem spicy enough in front of this young man...
