Sky Pavilion Construction Co., Ltd.
In the large office, Xu Qingqing, sitting in the main seat, had her eyebrows furrowed and her face gloomy.
"After all this time, haven't you found any good projects yet?"
Her gaze swept across all the company's senior executives.
As a result, everyone lowered their heads, and no one dared to meet her gaze.
"Alright, I know you've done your best. It's just that our company's reputation is too small. I'll think of something else."
Xu Qingqing waved her hand impatiently and said listlessly, "Let's adjourn the meeting!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and fled the office as if they were escaping.
When we built the factory for Wang Qian, they did get a good order and put a lot of effort into building it.
I thought that with this good start, business would be booming from now on.
As a result, after building the factory for Wang Qian, that was the end of it.
They also went around bidding to secure projects with lower construction costs.
But nobody took them seriously.
Companies with big projects look down on companies like theirs that have no reputation; they don't even qualify to bid.
Small projects are not only scarce, but many are also contracted out to private individuals rather than hiring construction companies.
Their company is currently in an awkward position—it's neither respectable enough for high-class settings nor does it qualify as a private team.
Fortunately, their chairperson, Xu Qingqing, was quite reasonable. Even though they couldn't find any projects to take on, she didn't take her anger out on them and continued to pay their salaries as usual.
"Looks like we have no choice but to take the risk again!"
After everyone left the office, Xu Qingqing muttered bitterly to herself, "I hope Wang Qian won't hold a grudge because of my rejection last time, otherwise the company will really be doomed."
Taking a deep breath, she didn't linger any longer and got up to walk outside.
...
Not long after, the dormitory building of Niangui Grilled Green Pepper Sauce Company.
"Wang Qian, I thought you had disappeared."
Xu Qingqing sat down in front of Wang Qian, her expression slightly awkward. "I refused your kindness last time. You don't hate me for that, do you?"
"Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Wang Qian shrugged.
Previously, Xu Qingqing actually chose to refuse after learning that his so-called big project was actually the Liu family's industrial park project.
In Xu Qingqing's view, the Liu family's industrial park project was a bottomless pit of fire that would devour anyone who got involved, and any company that got involved would likely lose everything.
Although he was somewhat disappointed at the time, he respected the other party's choice.
After all, it's a company, not a matter of one person treating the other to a meal.
After taking into account the risks, Xu Qingqing made a decision that she believed was beneficial to the company, which is understandable.
Even if he regrets it now and comes back to me, he won't feel any resentment because of it.
"I also guessed you weren't that kind of person, otherwise I wouldn't have come looking for you!"
Xu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief and tentatively asked, "Have you found a company to take over that industrial park project belonging to the Liu family?"
Not yet.
Wang Qian shook his head and asked in return, "What? Are you interested now?"
He had a rough idea of Xu Qingqing's situation.
They must be desperate to take a gamble.
"It's good that we didn't find it!"
Xu Qingqing was overjoyed and stared intently at Wang Qian, "If I regret it now, would you still be willing to cooperate with me?"
"I am willing, but..."
Wang Qian then changed the subject, "I hope you think it through before you decide. After all, business always involves risks, and I can't guarantee that you'll make money. I hope you understand that."
"Yes, I understand!"
Xu Qingqing nodded heavily. "I've thought it through over the past few days. As long as you give me this opportunity, I'm willing to take the risk."
"Are you sure?" Wang Qian asked with interest.
"certainly!"
Xu Qingqing seemed to have been mentally prepared, and said as if she were going into a sea of fire, "As long as you are willing to give me this opportunity, I can bet the future of the entire company on it."
“Alright, since you’ve made your decision, I can give you the park’s construction project, but…”
Wang Qian hesitated for a moment, then asked, "How many employees does your company have now?"
Xu Qingqing's expression froze instantly.
She then remembered that after she built the factory for Wang Qian, he had suggested that she quickly expand her workforce.
But when she found out that Wang Qian's big project was actually the Liu family's industrial park project, she not only did not expand recruitment, but also laid off some employees who were just loafing around because she couldn't get more construction projects.
The entire company currently has only about twenty people.
But not wanting to disappoint Wang Qian, she rolled her eyes a few times and then confidently assured him, "If needed, I can recruit hundreds of people within a few days."
"A hundred people might not be enough!"
Wang Qian smiled wryly and said, "The Liu family's industrial park project has an investment of 500 million yuan and covers a very large area. If construction is to start, at least several people will need to work together at the same time to keep up with the construction speed required by the Liu family."
"Do we need so many people?" Xu Qingqing frowned.
If it's just about expanding recruitment to a hundred people, and the recruitment criteria are relaxed a bit, it can still be done within a few days.
But recruiting hundreds of people would be a big problem.
There aren't many experienced construction workers these days.
Hiring someone with absolutely no experience risks ruining the project.
Most importantly, hiring hundreds of workers would cost tens of thousands of yuan a day.
Her company was only recently established and hadn't taken on any major projects yet. It was constantly overdrawing its invested funds. Although it made a small profit while building a factory for Wang Qian some time ago, it was only a pittance for the entire company.
