Chapter 330 - 330 Are You Trying to Trap Me?

330 Are You Trying to Trap Me?

Before that, Chen Xuan originally wanted to use the excellent planning and design plan to get the land.

After she won the bid, she would proceed with the financing.

But now, the rules had changed.

They had to first take out 70% of the funds needed for the project to prove their financial strength.

This would undoubtedly wipe out their chances of bidding!

“No wonder Peng Shaokun looked so determined when he went out just now,” Chen Xuan couldn’t help but mutter, her expression powerless.

Zhang Youting arrived just in time and looked a little anxious. “Sister Xuan, I heard from their staff that the bidding rules have changed?”

Chen Xuan nodded solemnly. “According to the current rules, Lingyun Real Estate has already been eliminated.”

Zhang Youting was a little stunned. “Is there no hope at all? We’ve invested so much energy into this project. Are we going to give up so easily?”

Chen Xuan let out a long sigh. “Our company only has around 300 million yuan available. It’s impossible to raise the amount of funds needed for the bidding in a short period of time. What else can we do if we don’t give up?”

Zhang Youting was also in despair.

She sat on a chair in the corridor with Chen Xuan, looking depressed.

During this period of time, they had been busy with this project.

They often worked overtime until 2 or 3 o’clock at night.

They had already seen hope.

They did not expect that in the end, they would still fail.

This blow was too great.

It was not something the two girls could bear.

At this time, Ye Feng spoke slowly: “Isn’t the bidding not over yet? Are you giving up just like that?”

“It’s almost over,” Chen Xuan said with a sad face. “I’m afraid that there’s not a single real estate company in the entire Zhonghai that can reach this standard.”

Ye Feng smiled.

“This is where the problem lies.”

“Let alone Lingyun Real Estate, it’s impossible for Cinda Corporation to raise 7 to 8 billion yuan in such a short time.”

Chen Xuan and Zhang Youting felt that his a.n.a.lysis made sense.

Even a large corporation like Cinda would find it difficult to fork out 7 to 8 billion yuan in a short period of time.

“But Peng Shaokun was so confident just now. Obviously, he was very confident.”

Chen Xuan immediately raised her question.

“Then there are only two possibilities. Either they received notice of the rule change in advance, so they started raising funds long ago. However, this possibility is very small.”

“Why?”

Chen Xuan and Zhang Youting were like two elementary school students. They raised their heads and looked at Ye Feng.

“Because Peng Shaokun tried to use some dirty tricks to eliminate you as a compet.i.tor yesterday.”

Ye Feng gave an explanation.

Chen Xuan felt that it made sense.

If Peng Shaokun had been notified of the rule change in advance…

Then there was no need to fear the Lingyun Real Estate anymore.

There was no need for him to go through all the trouble to pretend to pursue her or even curry favor with her mother.

“What about the second possibility?” Chen Xuan continued to ask.

“The second possibility is that he has the confidence to obtain a large investment within three days. He might even have reached an agreement to cooperate…” Ye Feng continued to a.n.a.lyze.

“But even if we know that someone is investing in him, what’s the use?” Zhang Youting asked.

“Of course it’s useful. As long as we can find out which investment inst.i.tution it is, there’s still room for negotiation,” Ye Feng answered confidently.

Chen Xuan and Zhang Youting looked at each other in surprise and joy.

What was shocking was that Ye Feng was able to calm down so quickly and a.n.a.lyze the core of the problem.

This rationality and strong a.n.a.lytical ability were truly admirable.

They were happy because they had thought that this project was completely hopeless.

Now, they saw the light of hope again.

“However, this kind of business cooperation is confidential. How can we find out which investment inst.i.tution it is?”

Chen Xuan calmed down and frowned again.

“Section Chief Yao Bin, who received us previously, is the person in charge of this bidding. He should know, right?” Zhang Youting suddenly mentioned someone.

“But… Will he tell us?”

Chen Xuan hesitated.

“Let’s give it a try. We can only try our best now.”

Zhang Youting had no other choice.

“Alright, let’s go and try.”

Chen Xuan nodded.

The three of them then went up to the second floor and came to the door of an office.

They knocked twice.

Then, they heard a lazy man’s voice from inside. “Please come in.”

The three of them walked into the office.

They saw a man in his fifties wearing a pair of black-rimmed gla.s.ses.

He was rubbing his sleepy eyes.

He was sleepy early in the morning.

This Section Chief Yao was really a talent.

“h.e.l.lo, Section Chief Yao. I’m Chen Xuan from Lingyun Real Estate. We met last time.”

Chen Xuan took the initiative to greet him.

“h.e.l.lo, what’s the matter?”

Section Chief Yao only nodded slightly and did not stand up to welcome her.

“It’s like this. We heard that the bidding rules have been changed at the last minute. We have some questions and would like to ask Section Chief Yao.”

“Any questions?”

“According to the revised rules, the reserve funds that the bidding companies need to prepare are very large. I’m afraid most companies won’t be able to meet the requirements, right?”

“That’s right. Since it’s a bid, of course we have to choose the strongest company. Just because you can’t meet the requirements doesn’t mean that others can’t either.”

“From what you’re saying, there are already companies that have met the bidding requirements?”

“Of course…”

Section Chief Yao suddenly reacted. “You little girl, are you trying to get information out of me?”
