The first to arrive was Xia Yu. He parked his car on the side of the road and walked into the business district.
At 9 o'clock, Xintiandi is already bustling with activity, and the new and old buildings that blend Chinese and Western styles exude their unique charm.
The shops here are only rented and not sold. The annual rent alone reaches 200 million yuan, while the initial relocation cost only more than 600 million yuan. It has to be said that it is really a hen that only lays golden eggs.
Xia Yu looked at it with envy, but his office was not here.
After passing through the business district, Xia Yu arrived at Huaihai Road, diagonally opposite the Langham, and stopped in front of the door of a five-story building.
Is this his building?
Xia Yu raised his head slightly. The fifth floor was not high, but it was not short either, and it looked quite new. The height of each floor was about four meters, much higher than that of a residential building.
When I pushed the door open and went in, an old man in a security uniform came to greet me.
"We are temporarily closed to the public. Please cooperate, sir."
The old man spoke very politely, obviously having been trained.
"I know, but this building is mine. Are you security hired by the developer?"
"Are you Boss Xia?"
The old man suddenly remembered that he had just said that Xia Yu looked familiar. It turned out that he was their boss.
Ordinary employees may not know the boss, but those working in security must know him. When the developer took over the business, they were shown a photo of Xia Yu. However, it has been a long time, and they only remembered it when they saw him in person.
"I'm sorry, sir, I didn't recognize you just now."
"It's okay, this is my first time here too."
Xia Yu waved his hand to indicate that he didn't care. He was more concerned about the specific situation of the office building.
There was a glass curtain wall blocking the view from the outside, but when I went inside I found that only the lobby on the first floor had painted walls and tiled floors, while other places were in a rough state.
There are several elevator shafts, but there is only one elevator installed. It is really poor.
Without letting the security guard follow him, Xia Yu walked towards the elevator, ready to take a look alone first.
The basement was pitch black. I could only get a rough look by turning on the flashlight on my phone. The entrances and exits to the outside were blocked by iron sheds, so I couldn't get in or out.
Nothing to see, let’s go upstairs.
The five floors upstairs have the same building structure and look very empty at first glance, so the space will have to be divided later.
Take the elevator out of the fifth floor, and then go up one floor from the fire escape next to it, and you will reach the rooftop that Xia Yu is most satisfied with.
Why do I say that? Because there is a big "H" marked on the wide rooftop.
The residential complex doesn't have a helicopter pad, but I didn't expect the office building to have one. This way, we can go directly from the headquarters to the production base, and Xia Yu won't have to drive to the general aviation company anymore.
No, we have to urge Lao Xia to apply for the helipad as soon as possible.
Xia Yu had looked at the relevant application conditions. They were quite troublesome, but as long as he was willing to spend money, he could find someone to handle it for him. Paying for services was the same in all walks of life.
Coming to the edge of the rooftop, Xia Yu looked down.
Although it was less than 30 meters high, he still had a feeling of looking down on all the other mountains.
There is no place like home, no place like gold or silver. It costs more than 200 million after all!
Um?
Xia Yu noticed a bright green GTR coming from a distance.
Isn’t this Lao He’s car!
He parked the car in a parking space on the side of the road, got out of the car and looked for a place while taking out his cell phone. It seemed that he had forgotten the address Xia Yu had just mentioned.
"Hello? Old Xia, what number are you at on Huaihai Road?"
As soon as Xia Yu answered the phone, He Jiawen asked, "This guy really forgot."
"Look up."
"above?"
He Jiawen was puzzled, but he still looked up and saw Xia Yu when he looked around.
"I saw you. Why did you go to the rooftop like that?"
"What do you mean by someone else's roof? This is my roof."
"Your home?"
He Jiawen's voice was full of surprise.
"Is this building yours?"
Suspecting that he had heard it wrong, he confirmed it again. You know, his father was in the construction business, but after working for more than 20 years, he still didn't have his own building and could only rent a floor in someone else's office building.
"Whose house could it be? Come up quickly!"
Xia Yu urged.
"Hey, I'll be right up."
He Jiawen hung up the phone and trotted over.
He felt that it was necessary to re-evaluate Xia Yu. He originally thought that he and Uncle Jiang's family were in the same class, but now that they were one class higher than each other, he had no idea what kind of family they were.
Don’t worry, my family is not as rich as yours!
Xia Yu's situation is a typical example of a person who looks strong on the outside but is actually weak on the inside. All his assets are displayed openly, which is very intimidating, but he has always been trying to fill the emptiness within himself.
When he is completely rich, no one will care whether he is a first-generation rich man or a second-generation rich man, because then he will be a real rich man.
He Jiawen quickly arrived at the rooftop. When he came in, he saw that the building was very new and still in a rough state. Xia Yu must have asked him to come over this time to discuss the decoration.
"Old Xia, you're so mean. You didn't tell me about this great place in Shanghai. My dad was planning to move the company a while ago!"
"I just found out that business overseas is tough. My dad gathered his funds in the first half of the year and was thinking of investing in some projects in Shanghai. He ended up choosing this place. It just so happens that I'm looking for a place to start my own business, so I'm using it here!"
Xia Yu did not lie. He only found out this morning that the building was his. Moreover, the documents provided by the system showed that the funds for purchasing the office building were from an account that Old Xia had opened in a foreign bank.
Because of the foreign exchange policy, it is difficult for domestic money to go out, but it is easy for foreign money to come in. The money that the system rewards Xia Yu is not rootless. If you want to check, you can find a reasonable source.
Xia Yu didn’t understand these things before, but now he knows everything.
But poor old Xia didn’t even know that his bank account had been used by “someone”.
"If my dad gave me a building like this and let me start a business, I would be so happy. But it's a pity that the old man can't even get it back even if he pawns his pants!"
He Jiawen laughed at himself.
All the villas, large apartments, shops, etc. in his family combined are not as good as Xia Yu's building.
In fact, he doesn't need to belittle himself. Even if Jiang Lei sold all of his daughter's dowry, he could only get half a building at most. If he wanted a whole building, he would have to sell all his real estate.
Having personal assets exceeding 10 billion does not mean that they can really come up with 10 billion. A large part of it is the company's valuation. If they can't find anyone to take over, they simply can't come up with 10 billion. If they sell off their factories, production lines and other foundations, the valuation may be halved.
It is precisely because he can see these things clearly that He Jiawen envies Xia Yu.
Compared to ordinary people, he already has a good father, but Xia Yu's father is even richer than his father. It would be a lie to say that he is not envious.
