Chapter 48 Someone's eager to be a sucker, so let's just go along with it.
Rong Xi squatted on the balcony smoking, recalling the question she had just asked Zhong Yan.
Zhong Yan advised against getting involved with Qinghe Real Estate, as there might be hidden problems.
She looked through the glass into the doorway again, perhaps Zhong Yan had no idea of the doting and tenderness in his eyes when he looked at Ji Tanyuan.
They were probably worried that Ji Tanyuan's company would suffer losses, so they didn't want to put her in a difficult position.
But she had already started.
The business world is ruthless; even if Ji Tanyuan is Mrs. Zhong, it doesn't matter.
Everyone has some kind of background.
Rong Xi waved the smoke and opened the balcony door to go inside.
Ji Tanyuan didn't drink again tonight, so she acted as the driver this time, while Zhong Yan sat in the passenger seat looking out the window.
Ji Tanyuan neither smokes nor drinks; she relieves stress through exercise and shopping.
This is a very healthy way to relieve stress, that's great.
"Besides sports and shopping, what else do you like to do?"
Zhong Yan asked.
Ji Tanyuan thought for a moment, "There are too many to list: playing mahjong, parties, watching handsome men... fashion shows, travel."
fine.
Zhong Yan was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Why don't you ask me the same question?"
Ji Tanyuan: "I can see with my eyes. You love to do everything: swimming, working out, smoking, drinking, organizing parties, cleaning, and cooking."
"..."
Zhong Yan had nothing to say, but that wasn't actually the case.
After meeting Ji Tanyuan, another thing came up.
When the autumn heat wave arrives, it also brings a blow to the real estate market.
Qinghe Real Estate, a listed company, announced a temporary suspension of trading to carry out a one-month share reform, in which some non-tradable shares will be converted into tradable shares.
Meanwhile, the Hujiang Intermediate People's Court issued an announcement: "Announcement on the Joint Public Auction of High-Quality Real Estate Assets in Core Urban Areas, including the Dingsheng Yujing Project on the Hujiang Jiefang Road-Huaihai Road Plot."
The announcement included a disclosure of asset defects and risks, which did not present any major issues.
This asset sale aims to revitalize existing funds. Qinghe, which was originally benefiting from the equity reform, is now viewed negatively by some. However, during the stock market suspension, it is not possible to accurately reflect whether investors are bullish or bearish.
Qinghe Real Estate packaged the three plots of land into auction assets, clearly indicating its intention to exit the market.
Insiders have inquired about who is leading this effort. Some say it's Yu Yanna, a rising star in the asset restructuring industry, while others say it's Lu Ke, the president of Ji's Group, personally in charge.
Some even say that Ji Qing personally took charge, leading to various conflicting opinions.
However, it is quite clear that the Ji family intends to abandon the real estate industry and focus on emerging industries such as new energy and microelectronics.
At the same time, Zidian Technology, a joint venture between Zhongheng Group and Ji's Group, released a preview of its year-end report, showing that its equipment capacity utilization rate reached the highest in China, and it is expected to expand the production capacity of domestically produced 12-inch and 8-inch wafers.
Meanwhile, in the semiconductor sector, where Zidian Technology is located, the stock prices of upstream and downstream manufacturers that Zidian collaborates with have been rising steadily.
This is the most remarkable achievement since the two companies started their cooperation. In just one year, it has emerged like a dark horse and made a splash in the mainland.
This is good news.
The bad news is that Chairman Ji is reviewing Qinghe Real Estate's internal accounts.
Ji Ting, who was standing to the side, was also talking big, saying, "If you don't use this method, I can handle everything."
Ji Qing didn't speak; he held a cigarette between his fingers and flipped through the pages one by one.
I can't not smoke, otherwise I'll have to smoke my brother's cigarettes.
"Brother, I've done right by you."
Ji Ting, who had a lot to say, widened his eyes upon hearing this. "Ji Qing, I saved your life when I was a child, and this is how you treat me?"
Ji Ting was in a frenzy. He waved the documents around and said, "Let me tell you, if you want to push me out to take the blame, you won't have an easy time either. And Ji Tanyuan, she's the Zhong family's daughter-in-law now. If the Ji family falls, she'll be looked down upon even more."
After saying that, he snorted coldly, sat down on the sofa, and breathed heavily.
Because of the recent exertion, his suit jacket and shirt ripped open, revealing his white belly.
Ji Qing clenched his fist. "You go back first. I'll handle the rest. You said you found clues about Zhihe, where are they?"
Ji Ting straightened his suit: "I need to make sure I'm safe."
Ji Qing closed his eyes and rested for a long time. His temples were covered with white hair, and the fine lines at the corners of his eyes were very obvious. He stood up by supporting himself on the table, got some water, and drank his medicine.
He then had his assistant come in to tidy up, and made a phone call to "arrange a meeting."
However, it was Ji Tanyuan who opened the door.
When Ji Tanyuan appeared at the door, Ji Qing was stunned.
Ji Tanyuan no longer wanted to ask why a chairman of the board had to tolerate her elder brother's words so much, when it was clearly her uncles who depended on him for survival.
She threw her bag on the sofa, squatted down to pick up the documents, and looked at them as she went.
Qinghe Real Estate has accumulated many problems over the years, including unfinished projects awaiting sale and properties with unclear property rights.
Ji Tanyuan picked it up, "Let's transfer the assets to an AMC or a real estate fund."
"Don't think about revitalizing the project on your own. Trying to fill the hole with profitable projects will never end. Just keep the existing properties as the basic financial foundation. Give away all the existing properties that are under construction or undeveloped."
"Taking advantage of the current major positive developments in the chip industry, the Ji family can make a good profit."
Ji Qing looked at her, still not quite understanding.
Ji Tanyuan opened the window to let the smoke out of the room, then glanced at the medicine on the table. "I've told you so many times, don't smoke while taking medicine, don't you understand?"
After saying this, Ji Tanyuan felt a little tired and didn't want to talk anymore.
“I’ll handle the rest. Some official departments made things difficult for you before, blocking our approval process so that Qinghe Real Estate would be unable to operate for a long time and then collapse so that they could take the opportunity to acquire it. Let’s do as they want and give them a big gift.”
"You've already gone to see Minister Chen, haven't you? And you've had too much to drink."
Ji Qing was afraid she would get angry again, so he said, "I didn't drink much."
"But he made things difficult for you."
Ji Qing sat back down. "It's not difficult. In business, when businessmen deal with officials, are they supposed to be arrogant and domineering?"
Ji Tanyuan pursed her lips, "Fine, I can't argue with you."
What brings you here?
Ji Tanyuan sat down. "Just because you dismissed me from my post doesn't mean I can't come?"
Ji Qing was speechless at his daughter's sarcastic remarks. He knew that Ji Tanyuan had a characteristic since she was a child: she loved to be sarcastic when she was angry.
Ji Tanyuan tidied up the documents. "I'm going to find Lu Ke. You go back and rest."
"Qinghe Real Estate is a minefield. The projects there look good, but they're actually impossible to operate. What do you plan to do about it?" Ji Qing asked.
Ji Tanyuan: "Someone is eager to be a sucker, so let's just go along with it."
