Qu Wenjing went to her colleague's place to get information for Lu Fan, and she also found information about the owner of a shop in Jiajia.
Including contact information and the like.
She didn't delay; she first contacted the homeowner and then brought up the acquisition.
Hongxin Plaza may have a prestigious name, but the Wang family is currently in dire straits. The buyer who took over the shops is feeling just as volatile as the Wang family's situation.
Most of the owners, after learning that someone was willing to take over, thought about selling again.
The selling price has increased in some cases and decreased in others.
After consulting with Lu Fan, Qu Wenjing gave the homeowners a premium of one-tenth of the original selling price as their final offer.
After quickly negotiating the price, Qu Wenjing was so happy she almost forgot her own name, jumping up and down as she rushed outside to print the contract.
Lu Qiuyi saw her off and returned to 243 to ask Lu Fan:
"Mr. Lu, it's possible to negotiate a lower price."
Lu Fan shook his head:
"Time is of the essence for me now."
"The premium acquisition was also intended to send a message and expedite the acquisition of Hongxin Plaza."
Lü Qiuyi bit her lip: "But this way, some homeowners might still hesitate."
The practice of waiting for a high price to sell is nothing new, both throughout history.
Lu Qiuyi was extremely worried about Lu Fan's account balance.
Compared to his bank balance, Lu Fan clearly valued his time more.
“The Wang family is in a bad situation, and the owners who bought the shops are also worried that they will be stuck with the shops.”
"Moreover, I only need to acquire more than half of the shops to turn around and force the Wang family to their dominance."
"As for those who take advantage of the situation and continue to raise prices because they can't see the bigger picture, reality will teach them a lesson. Just ignore them."
Lu Fan estimated that while these shops were very valuable, they were also undeniably huge money-devouring beasts.
Lu Fan believed that it would likely take at least four or five billion yuan to acquire Hongxin Plaza.
With Lu Fan's current cash flow, it is clearly not enough.
Qu Wenjing returned to the office at this time:
"Mr. Lu, the owners who are willing to sell are already on their way. Once the contracts are signed, these shops will be yours."
"Are you sure you have any problems with funding? If you're short on cash, we can help you contact the bank and at least get a loan with a reasonable interest rate."
"Oh, right, there are also about ten homeowners who were originally going to sign contracts, but after finding out that someone was taking advantage of the situation to buy them up, they started complaining about everything."
"Their offer is too high, exceeding the current transaction amount by at least 30%, what do you think?"
Qu Wenjing asked Lu Fan if he still intended to sign an acquisition agreement; if so, she would help him negotiate a lower price.
"But don't have too high expectations. These owners are all private investors, with big eyes but small hearts. It's hard to say how much they can drive down the price."
Lu Fan also indicated that he was unwilling to continue acquiring the company at an excessively high price.
"The homeowner is so difficult to deal with. If we really sign the contract, there will probably be all sorts of other things to deal with during the process."
"It's one thing that they're difficult to deal with, but they're taking this opportunity to raise prices. If I agree to it, there's no guarantee that other homeowners won't follow suit, and I'll lose even more money then."
"I wouldn't even want to touch these people's property rights, let alone pay a premium!"
Hearing Lu Fan's words, Qu Wenjing nodded knowingly:
"That's true. These are things that only we insiders know. I didn't expect that President Lu would be so knowledgeable about them as well?"
"If Mr. Lu wants to speed things up, then I'll also get on the work quickly and notify the homeowners in each location as soon as possible so they can come over for a detailed discussion."
Qu Wenjing and her real estate agency take large deals like Hongxin Plaza very seriously, not only for properties in the Wang family that are for sale, but also for properties that already have owners.
All of this is in the hands of the intermediary company; they have detailed information.
Seeing that Lu Fan had no objections to Qu Wenjing's proposal, Lü Qiuyi still couldn't help but add a word to her best friend:
"The premium will be based on the price we've given. If it's higher than this bottom line, there's no need to continue negotiating, so as not to waste each other's time."
Qu Wenjing hadn't expected even Lü Qiuyi to be so resolute. After thinking for a moment, she asked:
"But doesn't President Lu mean he ultimately wants to acquire Hongxin here?" Lu Fan explained to Qu Wenjing, seeing that she understood.
“I definitely want to acquire Hongxin, but not now.”
"Only when we have control of most of the shops can we be said to have grasped the core lifeline of this place."
"My acquisition of the shops is merely the final straw that breaks the back of the Wang family's property rights."
"Once I have complete control of this unit, those shops will have to think twice before they try to disobey me."
Qu Wenjing became even more curious:
"Mr. Lu, I don't quite understand what you're saying. Even if you acquire Hongxin Plaza, the property rights of those shops still belong to the owners."
Lu Fan laughed and said, "If you don't take advantage of them, why would you want even more? There's no such thing as a free lunch!"
