When Rex said this number, he had a smile on his face, but he was actually a little uneasy in his heart.
He has met a lot of rich people. He has met several batches of rich people who came to visit this manor and said they were interested in buying it. Some of them, like Lin Chen at the beginning, vowed to buy it.
I want to buy this MJ’s former residence.
But after these people learned about the specific quotation of this manor, they all backed down.
Even if they have money, these people can afford to buy this manor, but the price of 100 million US dollars also includes the cost of subsequent repairs and maintenance.
Even those who are rich have to weigh whether it is worth paying so much for their idol.
Sure enough, after hearing the price, Old Tom immediately turned back to Lin Chen and Taylor and said, "Mr. Lin, Miss Taylor, this price is too high!"
"They originally bought this manor for just over 30 million U.S. dollars. Now most of the manor is abandoned. If we want to rebuild it again, we will need to invest at least tens of millions!"
Hearing what Old Tom said, Rex felt a little guilty.
He really wanted to facilitate this business, so he immediately said: "Dear Mr. Lin, if you really want it, the price is not non-negotiable!"
Old Tom turned around and said: "Mr. Lin has already given a deposit of 10 million, so there is no need to doubt his sincerity!"
"Then...if Mr. Lin wants it, we can give you a 10% discount!"
Old Tom immediately shook his head: "No! Most of the places here need to be renovated, and the maximum cost is fifty million dollars!"
"What? Fifty million dollars? You're robbing!"
Seeing Old Tom and Rex haggling like market vendors, Lin Chen suddenly spoke up and stopped them.
"Old Tom, thank you for your help. Ninety million is just ninety million."
After hearing what Lei Long translated, Rex was immediately overjoyed, while Old Tom was in disbelief.
"Mr. Lin, you agreed too early! I feel confident that I can cut this amount by another ten or twenty million!"
"Forget it!" Lin Chen shook his head, "This is MJ's former residence, the home he devoted his whole life to building. To argue here over some money is disrespectful to MJ."
Lin Chen snapped his fingers, and Lei Long immediately took out a black bank card, leaving Rex and the others opposite him stunned.
He didn't expect that the other party actually paid directly!
A $100 million estate!
Even though it’s a 10% discount, it’s still 90 million!
Moreover, if all parts of the manor are to be restored to their original state, at least 10 to 20 million dollars of investment will be needed, and the annual maintenance costs in the future will also be more than 10 million US dollars!
A Chinese man actually bought such a mansion!
Rex felt that his outlook on life had been refreshed!
He has decided that after returning to the company, he must convince the senior management that China Xia must be operated as their key customer market in the future!
These Chinese people are really damn rich!
"Mr. Lin, please wait a moment. We will handle the procedures for you right now."
After being lost for a moment, Rex quickly smiled and went through the house purchase procedures for Lin Chen.
When letting the people he brought go through the contract process, Rex also licked his face and came over to Lin Chen with a smile: "Mr. Lin Chen, I wonder if you plan to repair this place? If you need it, I can do it for you."
You contact the construction team."
"No need. I will contact the person myself."
After that, Lin Chen walked back, then hugged Ivanka and Taylor, and said to them: "My dear, this will be our home from now on."
"It's like a dream." Ivanka sighed. She really didn't expect that one day she would be able to live in MJ's manor.
Taylor was even moved to tears.
MJ’s Neverland is the holy land in every musician’s heart.
In this way, on the day after signing the contract, Lin Chen asked Taylor to move all her belongings, including Ivanka's belongings.
Although many parts of Neverland Manor have been abandoned, the two main villa buildings can still be used directly, and Lin Chen can't wait to move in.
As for the repair work of the manor, Lin Chen declined the team provided by Croni Company and directly made an overseas phone call to China.
"Mr. Lin Chen, this is the banquet club. What services do you need from us today?"
"I want you to organize a construction team from China to come to the other side of the ocean to repair a manor for me."
On the other end of the phone, the people at the banquet club suddenly widened their eyes after hearing Lin Chen's request.
Although the banquet club often receives some bizarre requests from customers, none of them are more ridiculous than what Lin Chen made today.
"Mr. Lin, you probably want us to prepare a repair team for you on the other side of the ocean, right?"
"No. I want you to organize it at home, and then it is best to come to my side within three days."
"Domestic? Mr. Kelin, this kind of cross-border labor service probably costs no less than us setting it up for you directly on the other side of the ocean, and it also involves passport issues..."
"Money is not an issue, I just want to find workers from China!" Lin Chen continued.
"Okay Mr. Lin, we will arrange it immediately..."
After confirming the address with the other party, Lin Chen hung up the phone.
It's not that he is hot-headed and insists on hiring a construction team from China.
It's because compared to finding a construction team directly in California, there are many benefits to inviting people from China.
The most important point is that workers in China are far more diligent than workers on the other side of the ocean.
Those ghost workers are lazy and expensive, and their working speed will make you angry to death.
For example, in Lin Chen's previous life, Croni Company hired people to do the work of repairing the manor, and it took four to five years to restore the manor to its original state.
But if we hire domestic workers, I'm afraid it can be completed in a month or two.
Moreover, by hiring domestic workers, confidentiality can be guaranteed.
Lin Chen bought this place to hide his beauty in the golden house, but he didn't think that the construction workers, who were mainly Hispanics, could control their mouths.
Ask those people to help, maybe one day someone will be bribed by the paparazzi to take a few photos of Taylor and Ivanka in the manor.
So in the end, it is our Chinese worker uncles who can make Lin Chen feel at ease the most.
As for how troublesome it would be to invite a team of domestic construction workers over... Lin Chen didn't care about it. Anyway, the Banquet Club would help with this matter. Those people were so energetic, so sending a group of workers to the other side of the ocean shouldn't be a problem.
While the contract was being prepared to be signed, Rex came over to tell him something in order to please Lin Chen, a big customer.
"Mr. Lin Chen, MJ once installed speakers in the fake rocks near every manor building. MJ's music can be heard in any corner of the manor. We have repaired these speakers. You need to try them now.
Try it?"
"Of course!" Lin Chen replied without hesitation.
After a moment, MJ's "HealWorld" slowly sounded in the manor. The kingdom that once belonged to MJ seemed to be reborn at this moment...
