Chapter 205 -205: Knock it Down to Three Hundred Million, the Stunned Woman Who Worships Everything Foreign
Jin Xinran was extremely worried about the upcoming contract issues. He had only signed a six-month contract with the International Financial Center’s building.
Previously, because he knew the vice president of the building, he had no worries. But now he had somehow offended the owner here.
He was doomed.
For this hotel, along with various matters such as renovation and design, he had spent one or two billion.
All this was for long-term development.
But if after six months, the contract expired and he couldn’t continue the lease, he would lose at least a billion, maybe even more.
Even for a tycoon, losing one or two billion all at once would be unbearably painful.
Though they were billionaires, their worth fluctuated with the company’s market value. If something unexpected happened to the company and the market value dropped, their worth would plummet drastically.
“Contract?”
Chu Chen understood Jin Xinran’s point and casually remarked,
“I’m not a petty person, so if Mr. Jin wants to continue renting, there’s no problem.”
Jin Xinran’s eyes lit up, and he breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Chu Chen checked the rent here; leasing a floor cost about more than ten million a month.
And for renting here for half a year, Jin Xinran might have spent around sixty to seventy million.
“I’ll give Mr. Jin a discount on the second half of the year’s contract, how about 300 million?”
Chu Chen asked with a smile.
A discount?
And still 300 million?
Are you kidding? That’s a fivefold increase in rent!
Hearing this, everyone exchanged looks.
“Mr. Chu is truly generous!”
“Mr. Chu is as magnanimous as they say.”
“As expected from Mr. Chu, immediately offering Mr. Jin a discount, admirable; this level is something we can only look up to.”
In the next second, countless flattering comments came forward.
Originally, these guests came to celebrate the opening of Jin Xinran’s hotel but were now groveling over Chu Chen.
“Everyone always speaks the truth.”
Even Chu Chen felt a bit embarrassed.
What could he do? He was an accommodating person after all.
But Jin Xinran almost spat blood.
Three hundred million, three hundred million!
And they call it generous?
But losing three hundred million was better than losing one or two billion, right?
“Okay.”
Jin Xinran nodded.
“Since Mr. Chu is so generous, how could little Jin refuse?”
Despite crying inwardly, Jin Xinran still had to smile and respond to Chu Chen.
Swallowing his grievances silently, who asked him to create unnecessary trouble?
Damn it, after this is over, he must go knock some sense into Yi Feng Jewelry, otherwise, his loss would be too great.
“Haha.”
“Pft.”
Jiang Hua and Luo Yongning stood on the side watching the show, unable to hold back their laughter.
The eminent financial tycoon now faced with Chu Chen, like a mouse meeting a cat, called himself “little Jin.”
If this got out, Jin Xinran might become a laughing stock in the circle.
Of course, they definitely wouldn’t spread it themselves; they’re not ones to add insult to injury.
But if someone else asked about it, well, they couldn’t help that.
Being honest folks, they wouldn’t lie.
With a few billion in hand, Chu Chen felt in good spirits.
“Since you’re here today, you can go check out the company.”
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
There was a separate asset management company managing the International Financial Center building, overseeing everything related to it.
As Chu Chen became the owner of the International Financial Center building, naturally, he also became the chairman of the company.
The company was on the top floor of the International Financial Center building, which even featured a high-altitude helipad for helicopter landings.
The cocktail party continued as Chu Chen left alone, about to take the elevator to check out the company.
The elevator opened, revealing many people inside already.
Chu Chen got on, but it wasn’t overloaded.
As the elevator stopped at the 63rd floor, a blond, blue-eyed, slightly handsome foreigner walked in.
However, as soon as he came in, an alarm sounded, indicating that they were overloaded.
For a moment, the atmosphere grew awkward.
Most people looked toward the foreign man, as he was the last to enter.
Originally, he didn’t want to leave, but being stared at by so many, the foreign man felt uneasy.
“Haha, domestic men are just like this, not a bit of a gentleman,” a young woman scoffed.
“Domestic men are so shameless, no wonder they say domestic men can’t compare to foreign men—they’re crushed in every aspect.”
“Domestic singles cry about not finding partners and resent others marrying foreigners; puh, they’re just trash, deserving of not finding girlfriends.”
“If it were me, I would marry a foreigner too.”
The young woman, with an adoration for foreign cultures, kept disparaging.
“The second person who entered, hurry and get out,” the foreign-admiring woman targeted Chu Chen instead of letting the recently entered foreign man leave.
Hearing this, several men in the elevator looked at the woman with disdain.
Clearly, it was the foreigner who entered last!
“Why are you like this?”
“Why not let the foreigner leave?”
“The elevator was overloaded because of him.”
People started speaking one after another.
“You people.”
Looking at those criticizing her, the foreign-cultured woman harshly retorted, threatened,
“Do you all disrespect women like this?”
“Do you believe I won’t take your pictures and post them online, allowing feminist sisters to criticize you?”
The foreign-cultured woman turned out to be someone hiding behind feminism, actually being a foreign-admiring pseudo-feminist.
After being threatened by the foreign-cultured woman, no one spoke further.
They all knew how fearsome those pseudo-feminist foreign admirers could be, fiercer than online trolls.
Better to avoid unnecessary trouble.
“Too much!” exclaimed a beautiful woman with high looks and a strong sense of justice.
Others might fear, but she didn’t.
“The foreign gentleman clearly came in and caused the elevator to overload.”
“Yet you’re blaming this young man.”
“Aren’t you so-called feminists advocating for foreign men and gentlemanly behavior? Then why don’t you step out instead?”
Provoked by the justice-driven beautiful woman, the foreign-cultured woman became furious:
“I’ll go out!” she said.
Earlier, she mocked domestic men, wanted Chu Chen to leave, all to flatter this foreign handsome man, hoping he’d notice her.
If she left now, then surely this foreign handsome man would be moved by her actions and follow her out.
Maybe, she could experience a whirlwind of romantic happiness.
Thinking of this, the foreign-cultured woman exited, smiling at the foreign handsome man.
She anticipated the gentle foreign man to follow her out.
The foreign handsome man did act.
However, seeing his actions, the foreign-cultured woman’s smile faded.
The moment she exited, the foreign man pressed the elevator’s close button without hesitation.
Watching the elevator doors gradually close.
The foreign-cultured woman became dumbfounded.
How could this be?
She still had to go to the top floor of the building for an interview!
