Chapter 1351 The wife is coming (4100 words), asking for a monthly pass
Shen Nanpeng is really afraid that if he waits any longer, the value of Xiaoai Technology Co., Ltd. will become more prominent, and the price will get higher and higher by then. It will be really difficult to buy shares at that time.
…
On the 11th floor of Yingdu Building, in the office of Xia Zekai of Toutiao Technology Co., Ltd.
"Brother Xia, what do you think of this place?" Zhang Yiming came to Xia Zekai with a few photos that day.
Xia Zekai was not very surprised when he saw the photo in Zhang Yiming's hand. It was a photo of an office building that looked square and square.
The office building in the photo looks quite tall, but because it is too square, there is nothing particularly outstanding in its exterior design.
However, there is also a note in the lower right corner of the photo that it is near Zhichun Road on the North Third Ring Road.
"It looks quite tall in the photo. How many floors are there in total?" Xia Zekai took the photo and looked at it. This office building is not low, but compared with the surrounding high-rise buildings, it is considered a dwarf.
It looks like it's four or five stories high, but it's big enough.
"Hey, there are two floors in total, but the roof can park a helicopter." Zhang Yiming still had a bit of embarrassment on his face.
Hearing Zhang Yiming say this, Xia Zekai was really surprised: "Then its floor height is not low."
"According to the real estate agency, it is the tallest building in Beijing. The height from the second floor to the dome is more than 14 meters. I forgot the specific height."
He pointed to the current Yingdu Building and said to Xia Zekai: "It's still small here, but it's not enough now."
"It's okay. If it's not enough, just replace it with a new one. Is this new building enough?" Xia Zekai asked him.
Zhang Yiming nodded: "It should be enough within one or two years. I asked the agent. This building has a single floor of 5,000 square meters, and the two floors combined have a total area of 10,000 square meters."
"Haha, okay, is it settled?" Xia Zekai wanted to laugh after listening to what Zhang Yiming said.
But he also knows that with the rapid development of Toutiao's business, especially after receiving a large amount of funds in the B round of financing, its R&D and industrial expansion have far exceeded the same period in history.
And this kind of company is different from a physical enterprise. Its later expansion will be faster and faster, but its expansion does not require building its own factory like a physical enterprise, or finding an OEM to expand its production capacity. It only needs a
Just office space.
After Yingdu Building could not meet the current needs of Toutiao, Zhang Yiming arranged for people to find a new office space, and finally found the AVIC Building on Zhichun Road.
"Not yet, we are talking about it. In addition, there is a company working in the AVIC Building. The other party has made it clear that the contract will not be renewed. If the agreement is reached, I will arrange to renovate it," Zhang Yiming said.
When he heard that it was going to be renovated, Xia Zekai mentioned one thing: "Yiming, which company are you going to find for the renovation?"
Zhang Yiming shook his head: "It hasn't been decided yet. Does Brother Xia have any recommendation for a decoration company?"
The next moment I heard Xia Zekai say: "I bought a stake in a decoration company. The owner of this company is very honest. All the self-owned shops I bought there were decorated by this company. In addition, it is used in villas, high-end private residences and
We also have rich experience in office buildings and office building decoration.”
"Then why are you so polite? Who can I ask to do it? What's your name? Brother Xia, please give me the boss's contact information." Zhang Yiming readily agreed without even thinking about it.
These are all small things!
What's more, after careful calculation, from Xia Zekai's point of view, they still have a 'kinship relationship'!
Xia Zekai didn't show any pretense. He gave Yang Tiande's phone number to Zhang Yiming and said, "You can just go to him directly and ask Capita Home Decoration to provide a design drawing. You can also find several more decoration companies to bid for it. Then use it when you are satisfied.
, if you are not satisfied, change to something else.”
"Okay." Zhang Yiming nodded and agreed with a smile.
It seems that moving to the AVIC Building is a foregone conclusion, and they have already decided on a decoration company in a few words.
"Yiming, have all the arrangements for Series C financing been arranged?" Xia Zekai asked him.
"Well, everything is ready." Zhang Yiming said.
This kind of thing has been organized not once or twice, he is very experienced.
He said: "Lao Liang is almost ready."
"Yi Ming, I have a feeling that after this financing is completed, Toutiao will become famous all over the world. Believe it or not!" Xia Zekai did not say anything passionate, as if he was commenting on a fact.
"Hey, I think so too." Zhang Yiming is no longer in the past, and his confidence is getting stronger with the development of Toutiao.
Although the current overall valuation of Toutiao is not as high as that of Yixing, he has a hunch that it will not take long for Toutiao to surpass it.
And he believes that Toutiao has greater development potential.
…
On the other side, Li Guangming of Lianjia Real Estate finally reported the business situation to his superior store manager, who then reported it to the regional manager, and then to the regional manager.
None of them expected that someone would actually want to buy this house, which is said to be the largest courtyard house in Beijing, and has been listed on the Lianjia platform for almost a year.
It has been on the market for such a long time, and during this period there were people who wanted to buy it, but the total price was too high. As time went by, the total price of this courtyard house slowly rose from over 1 billion when it was first listed to 1.2 billion.
Yes, during the period when the order was placed for sale, with the rapid development of the real estate industry in Beijing, its price also increased.
Kang Anxiang's move further discouraged a group of potential purchasing customers.
But according to the information reported by Li Guangming, the buyer this time really wants to buy this courtyard house worth 1.2 billion.
Just because the buyer is Xia Zekai!
Lianjia Real Estate attaches great importance to it. The store manager, regional manager, and regional manager have held two meetings in three days, just to discuss countermeasures and how to persuade the owner to lower the price and facilitate this order.
After receiving the accurate information from Li Guangming, they settled the accounts. If the transaction could be completed, Lianjia Real Estate would be able to get a commission of more than 25 million yuan. Even if more than 6 million yuan was given to Li Guangming according to the rules, the company
There are still nearly 20 million here. For a store, this is really three years without opening and three years after opening.
How to negotiate with customers, and how to negotiate to get the owner to lower the price, is a real technical job within the real estate agency, but they have made a fool of themselves with this technical job.
In addition, Lianjia Real Estate is indeed the number one in the real estate intermediary market in Beijing, and its strength is also very strong. After some investigation, Kang Anxiang's company did encounter problems and needed money.
The other company has even reached the point of looking for private capital for loans.
"So the other party is in urgent need of money!" This is the most useful information finally obtained by the Lian family.
"I think there is a problem here. If Boss Xia can come up with cash in the shortest time, it will be solved by asking the owner to reduce the price." Tao Dingfang, the regional manager in Beijing, said.
She is worthy of being a veteran, and she can see the difficulties and methods of solving problems at a glance.
Store manager Lu Guangyou, who was in charge of Li Guangming, scratched his head: "Mr. Tao, I'm not sure either. Look at this, I'll ask Xiao Li to confirm this again."
"Nonsense, if you ask a clerk to confirm such a big thing, doesn't it make our company look petty? Where's Boss Xia's phone number? Give it to me and I'll ask in person." Tao Dingfang said with a serious expression.
Seeing that Tao Dingfang was indeed angry, Lu Guangyou felt even more uncomfortable. He said sheepishly: "Mr. Tao, no, Xiao Li's phone number is from another Mr. Liang."
"Is this Mr. Liang Rubo and Liang you were talking about before?" Tao Dingfang, the regional manager in her forties, is well-maintained and looks no different from her thirties.
But she was not angry or assertive at the moment, but she still frightened Lu Guangyou to the point where his heart was trembling and he felt uneasy.
"You can also give me Mr. Liang's phone number. Since Mr. Liang went with Mr. Xia, I can definitely get Mr. Xia's phone number from him, or ask Mr. Liang to convey it to me."
After a while, Tao Dingfang had an idea.
Lu Guangyou did not dare to delay and gave Liang Rubo's phone number to Tao Dingfang.
After Tao Dingfang got Liang Rubo's phone number, he did not rush to call Liang Rubo. Instead, he contacted Kang Anxiang first and expressed that he wanted to discuss the transaction of the courtyard house near Shichahai in person.
She also promised Kang Anxiang that there would be a way to get the buyer to come up with the money in the shortest possible time, but both parties had to take a step back.
Hearing what Tao Dingfang said, Kang Anxiang agreed. Tao Dingfang's words hit the mark on what Kang Anxiang longed for most.
During this time, Kang Anxiang has been wondering why Xia Zekai didn't believe him. He really needed money urgently.
He knew that among the dozen or so buyers he had received, Xia Zekai was the most reliable. He originally thought of trying it out, but when the time came, he would go with the flow and it would be cheaper, so he would sell it.
But as soon as ten days passed, there was no information at all, which made him anxious, thinking that this matter was going to become dirty again.
Regarding the call from Tao Dingfang, Kang Anxiang was thinking, could it be that Lianjia Real Estate had already negotiated with Xia Zekai?
Kang Anxiang probably never thought that Tao Dingfang was thinking of finding a way to get out of his limits first, and then talk to Xia Zekai.
…
On the 26th, Liang Rubo received a call from a strange woman. When she told him that her name was Tao Dingfang and that she was the manager of Lianjia Real Estate’s Beijing region, he instantly understood her purpose.
After chatting with Tao Dingfang for a while, Tao Dingfang always wanted his brother Xia's phone number, but Liang Rubo didn't give it to him in the end. He told the other party that he would convey the results to Xia Zekai as soon as possible, and Xia Zekai would contact her personally.
Tao Dingfang was a little disappointed that she couldn't directly ask for Xia Zekai's contact information, but it was already perfect.
As a veteran who has worked hard in the real estate industry for many years, Tao Dingfang still has some determination and patience.
As for Liang Rubo, he did not delay, and then called Xia Zekai and relayed to Xia Zekai all the rhetoric that Tao Dingfang told him.
"Brother Xia, Mr. Tao said that the owner agreed to lower the house price to 1.16 billion yuan. This is the biggest concession from the other party." Liang Rubo said.
"1.16 billion? These intermediary people are really capable. They cut off 40 million at once. How did they do it?" Xia Zekai was particularly curious at this moment.
Liang Rubo smiled. He summed it up in four words and said: "Brother Xia, I guess it's nothing more than 'cheating' and deceiving the owners. But we really can't underestimate the ability of these people."
"Haha, you're right. That's why I asked Manager Li to help me handle this matter in the first place. I was thinking that they must have better methods in this business." Xia Zekai laughed heartily.
Even for him, the 40 million was not a small amount, and Fatty Kang was probably very distressed.
Even if he had to give 4 million to Li Guangming, Xia Zekai agreed that at least the commission would be saved for him.
"Rubo, please give me Mr. Tao's phone number. I will go to the station to pick up your sister-in-law and nieces and nephews. When we pick them up later, I will take her to see the house together. If your sister-in-law is satisfied, this matter
That's it." Xia Zekai said happily.
Liang Rubo was a little dumbfounded. He thought Brother Xia would find someone else to bargain with, or delay it for a while, but he didn't expect Brother Xia to be so happy!
This feeling is as if this 1.2 billion house is just that in the eyes of Brother Xia.
"Brother Xia, sister-in-law, nephew, and niece are here?" Liang Rubo asked quickly.
If someone arrived, he would have to make arrangements to meet him as soon as possible.
"Well, your sister-in-law came here with Qingyu and her three siblings. The eldest and the second child are still in school in Qicheng." Xia Zekai said.
Liang Rubo felt a little disappointed when he heard that the most joyful and noisy niece was not here.
"Brother Xia, let's do this. You go to pick up my sister-in-law first. Let's get together at noon at my row of eating places." Liang Rubo said.
But Xia Zekai said: "Why gather together..."
"Brother Xia, what you said is wrong. My sister-in-law is my benefactor!" Liang Rubo said with a smile.
It was Luo Xiyun who was the matchmaker for him in the first place, and now he and Xie Xindi are together, otherwise his personal happiness would not have been resolved yet!
Beijing Railway Station!
When Xia Zekai picked up his wife, daughter, and son, he told her that Liang Rubo wanted to treat her to dinner and a house.
"Xiao Liang is too polite, which makes me feel embarrassed." Luo Xiyun said.
Xia Zekai laughed and said, "It's almost lunch time. Let's go have a meal and then go look at the house in the afternoon."
"Dad, give me a hug!" Qingyu saw Xia Zekai and saw that her father and mother kept talking and ignored her. The little guy became angry.
The little hands also opened up, allowing Xia Zekai to hold her.
"Haha, Qingyu, you miss daddy!" Xia Zekai quickly bent down and picked her up.
"Think!" Qingyu said.
"Dad, and me!"
"I thought about it too, give me a hug from daddy!"
When brothers Chenchen and Jingling saw their father picking up their sister, they were unhappy and began to make a fuss.
Xia Zekai glanced at the three of them, then at his wife, followed by Geng Yuqin, Liu Changzheng, and the two nannies Jiang Ningning and Ren Ping, and asked her: "They are quite noisy on the road!"
