Zong Jia nodded. "I know. I've arranged to visit a farm in the suburbs tomorrow. Do you want to come along?"
Jiang Xiaoli hesitated for a moment, then said, "Tomorrow is fine, you can go. I can't leave Uncle Xiao's bidding meeting tomorrow."
“Alright, what can we do when our CEO Jiang is so busy?” Zong Jiayu agreed.
She nudged his arm, clearly annoyed. "Drive properly! Who taught you to be so sarcastic?"
Zong Jiayu smiled and nodded, "Okay, okay, I'll do whatever you say!"
Jiang Xiaoli turned slightly to the side. "What are your plans for the New Year?"
"I guess I went to Dafu and Zhongyuan's house for a meal, and then I was home alone," he replied.
Hearing his New Year's plans, Jiang Xiaoli suddenly felt a pang of reluctance. "Why don't you come with us to Lucheng?"
Zong Jia hesitated for two seconds, "Is it appropriate for me to go?"
Jiang Xiaoli clapped her hands readily, "Suitable? What's inappropriate about it? Are you shy?"
"You've been gone for quite a while; the factory can't do without you."
She offered a suggestion directly: "The factory is running perfectly fine right now, and besides, we still have Uncle Wei!"
Zong Jia chuckled, "Is it appropriate for us to go out and have fun, leaving the factory to Uncle Wei?"
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled, "It should be...appropriate, right?"
"I'll discuss it with Uncle Wei later before making a decision." He was serious and decided to consider everything carefully before making a final decision.
On the morning of the 31st, Xiao Jincheng brought Jiang Xiaoli to the Xijing Hotel.
Today's bidding meeting is being held in the banquet hall of the Xijing Hotel.
At 11:30 a.m., the deadline for submitting bids arrived, and they had received a total of 17 bids.
In the presence of all the bidding companies, Xiao Jincheng publicly opened the bidding documents of the bidding companies.
"Thank you to all participating organizations for your participation in the architectural design bidding for the 'Jinghua Commercial Plaza'. We will announce the evaluation results on February 3rd, and we ask that you attend on time."
At 2:30 p.m., five experts from the construction industry sat in the meeting room of the Xijing Hotel. They would help them evaluate the technical issues of these bidding proposals over the next two days.
...
On the morning of February 1st, Jiang Xiaoli and Zong Jia arrived at the food factory. She had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
Now, the spicy strips produced by "Jiang Li Ji" food factory are sold in nine provinces, and this month's sales reached an astonishing 62.938 million yuan!
Seeing the sales figures clearly on the report, Jiang Xiaoli's face lit up with a smile.
Without hesitation, she readily signed off on all the expense applications and even approved an extra bonus to provide meals for the factory workers who worked overtime during the Chinese New Year holiday.
The food factory's net profit in January was 23.918 million yuan.
Jiang Xiaoli twirled the pen in her hand and said to Zong Jia, "Don't you think it's a bit stingy for us to only give out 5 million in dividends?"
Zong Jia smiled faintly and asked, "Is Mr. Jiang planning to distribute dividends again?"
She shook her head. "Forget it, let's see how things go by mid-year!"
After two days, the experts selected the three most suitable bidding proposals.
Xiao Jincheng called Zhou Bangcai, Wang Xiong, Han Chen, and Jiang Xiaoli together, "These are the three final selections. Which one do you guys like?"
The group quickly flipped through the designs, and soon Wang Xiong put down a document in his hand. "Jincheng, I think they're all the same. Let's just look at the quotes!"
Zhou Bangcai couldn't help but facepalm. "Do you think you're buying vegetables at the market, where you just pick the cheapest ones?"
Wang Xiong smacked his lips. "The experts have all said these options are acceptable, so it's just a matter of choosing the cheapest one."
Xiao Jincheng advised, "Brother Wang, the design concepts of these three plans are all different, and the differences are quite significant. Let's take a closer look."
After reviewing the three drawings, Han Chen nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I think this design for the large plaza is quite good!"
Wang Xiong glanced at it and said, "We have such expensive land, and we're just going to leave a bare plaza here? What a waste!"
Zhou Bangcai glanced at Jiang Xiaoli, who was intently looking at the pictures, and asked, "Xiaoli, which one do you think is better?"
Jiang Xiaoli put down the design drawing in her hand. "If I had to choose, I would choose this one."
After the group passed around the design she had shown them, Xiao Jincheng asked, "Little Pear, what do you think is good about this design?"
She took a sip of tea and began to explain, "Actually, all three of these proposals meet our requirements very well, but the other two are rather conventional. This one, on the other hand, is very attractive in many design details, such as the extra-long escalator, the sky garden, the cultural district, and so on."
He not only built a commercial plaza, but also provided us with many small surprises to attract customers. A new shopping mall needs to attract crowds, what do you all think?
Wang Xiong picked up the blueprints again and looked at them. "I have to say, after hearing what Xiao Li said, I feel that these little things are really attractive. At least my wife would definitely love to come and shop here!"
Zhou Bangcai smiled and nodded, "I also think this plan is better. Jincheng and Xiaochen, do you two have any other opinions?"
Han Chen shook his head, "I'll listen to you."
Xiao Jincheng put his arm around Jiang Xiaoli's shoulder and said, "I trust my little lucky star's choice! Let's go with this one!"
On February 3rd, at the Xijing Hotel, various architectural design firms gathered together.
Which company do you think will win the bid?
"I don't know. I heard that this company has plenty of funds. This must be a great job!"
"Haha! The bidding is about to begin. If I win, I'll treat you guys to a big meal later!"
At 10:30 a.m., Xiao Jincheng, dressed in a gray-blue suit, strode to the microphone.
"Sorry to keep you all waiting. I'd like to announce the results of the architectural design bidding for the 'Jinghua Commercial Plaza' project. The winning bidder is Pengcheng Pengfei Architectural Design Co., Ltd."
All eyes immediately fell on a handsome young man, who was the person in charge representing Pengcheng Pengfei Architectural Design Co., Ltd. in this bidding process, and also the chief designer of the project.
He was overjoyed to see so many well-known companies in the industry participating in the bidding, but his heart had already sunk to the bottom.
Unexpectedly, he won first place in the end, and he excitedly stepped forward to shake Xiao Jincheng's hand.
"Mr. Xiao, thank you so much! We are truly grateful that your company chose us!"
Xiao Jincheng smiled and shook his hand in return, "President Zhu, I wish us a pleasant cooperation!"
Zhu Ming's face flushed red. "I wish us a pleasant collaboration!"
Afterwards, Xiao Jincheng invited the heads of other bidding units to dinner together.
Before the meal, he raised his glass to everyone present and said, "Thank you all for participating in this bidding process. I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with you all in the future. Thank you!"
