Song Sining's face was flushed, and she muttered in her heart:
"Idiot, it'll be yours sooner or later, what's the rush! Hmph, big pig trotters!"
She had long since decided on Wang Yi.
Sooner or later, she would completely give herself to Wang Yi.
But this guy was a blockhead, not knowing how to take the initiative.
Now he wants to take the initiative?
Even wants to go all the way?
What good things is he thinking of?
No way!
Big sis is having a little tantrum!
Hmph!
"Watch my performance?"
Wang Yi smiled, it seemed this matter was settled, just needed a little more time.
After all, if they kissed and established their relationship during the day, and then had "great harmony" at night, it would indeed be too fast.
He had to consider Song Sining's feelings.
Wang Yi also lay down and hugged Song Sining.
Song Sining turned around, and the two embraced, lying together, enjoying the tenderness of the moment.
During this period, he was busy with work and various matters every day.
Even though eighteen-year-old Wang Yi was energetic, he inevitably felt a bit tired.
But at this moment, holding Song Sining made him feel an inexplicable sense of peace.
After a long while, Song Sining suddenly spoke:
"Brother, the house we bought seems to be frozen. Is it going to be demolished?"
Wang Yi thought for a moment:
"It might be demolished in the future, but this freeze is mainly to demolish those villages in Xianjiazhuang."
As for his own county's garment factory, it's going to be demolished.
How much compensation will there be?
Song Sining smiled and said:
"Oh, demolition in the future would be good too. If it's demolished, we might get rich overnight, hahahaha."
"Thanks to you for advising me to buy the house early, otherwise, if it were demolished later, I'd just have to watch helplessly."
Song Sining was not a materialistic girl; she was already very satisfied with her current life.
She was only 19, a sophomore, and had already bought a 150-square-meter house in full.
Now that school had started again, she was only a junior!
Although it was an old, large house in the eastern suburbs, it was frozen, with demolition likely, which would bring a wave of wealth.
Wang Yi also gave her a Mercedes-Benz E, costing over 500,000 yuan!
Her annual salary also started at 500,000 yuan!
Song Sining felt that she was already a winner in life!
At 19, she had a house, a car, and an annual salary of 500,000 yuan; she was truly a winner in life.
Before, she couldn't even imagine it.
She really couldn't imagine it!
"Ever since I met Wang Yi, my life has become so lucky!"
Song Sining thought to herself, unable to resist hugging Wang Yi tighter.
The two chatted comfortably like this:
"Those villages being demolished now are for us to build a 518-meter skyscraper. Of course, the thousand acres of residential land nearby will also be sold to us at a low price next year."
"A 518-meter skyscraper?"
"A thousand acres of land!"
Song Sining was stunned:
"What's going on? Isn't our Meiyou Technology Park 300 acres of commercial and financial land? How did it become a skyscraper? And a thousand acres of residential land?"
Wang Yi smiled:
"The 300 acres of commercial and financial land is for Meiyou Technology Park, which has already been demolished and will begin construction this year."
"The skyscraper and 1,000 acres of residential land are new projects. They are estimated to be fully demolished and handed over to us next year. There's no rush to start construction."
Song Sining was stunned, full of disbelief:
"So that's how it is, such a grand plan! A 518-meter skyscraper, how much will that cost?"
"If built now, 2 billion would be enough. If built five years later, it would cost around 3 billion!"
Song Sining thoughtfully said:
"Although building it five years later will cost more, money will also depreciate. More importantly, we don't have that much money to build it now!"
"That's right, there's no rush for this. First, while land prices are cheap, we'll acquire the land and hoard it. A few years later, before housing prices skyrocket, we'll develop and sell."
Song Sining nodded:
"Right! A thousand acres of residential land, that would be six or seven residential complexes, wouldn't it?"
"No, we'll directly build three large communities!"
From 2015 to 2018, these were the craziest years for the real estate market, and also the years dominated by high-rise buildings.
During this period, most houses were 33-story high-rises, with high density, and developers saw soaring profits.
After 2018, new residential complexes had fewer large high-rises, mostly focusing on 18-story medium-rises, and density also dropped from 3.0 to 2-2.5.
Although comfort increased, unfortunately, the quality of houses declined, not even matching the quality of the large high-rises.
The reason, of course, was that developers had no profit, or even sold at a loss, so they could only lower standards, reduce features, and even cut corners!
For example, Jizhou's suburban new town was a large suburb when land was acquired between 2012-2015, with a floor price of only 2000-4000 per square meter.
Selling for 6000-8000 per square meter in early 2016 still yielded substantial profits.
By 2017 and 2018, its most glorious period, prices directly sold for 15,000-20,000 per square meter!
Developers made a killing!
However, by 2016-2018, land acquisition prices became expensive, with floor prices reaching 12,000-15,000.
Everyone thought the housing market would keep skyrocketing, believing that even with high land acquisition prices, selling for 15,000-20,000 per square meter would still yield sufficient profits.
Major developers scrambled to bid for land!
Many "Land Kings" emerged!
However, unexpectedly, after 2018, the housing market suddenly cooled, and prices plummeted.
Not to mention breaking 20,000, prices instead dropped all the way to 12,000-15,000!
With floor prices at 12,000-15,000, plus construction costs, taxes, etc., they needed to sell at least for 14,000-17,000 to avoid losing money.
But now, selling for only 12,000-15,000, developers lose 2,000 per square meter!
Selling one house meant a loss of 200,000!
To minimize losses, they could only cut corners, lower standards, reduce features, and try to lose as little as possible.
Or they'd offer "deluxe" renovations, raising the price by 3,000 per square meter, claiming a 5,000 per square meter renovation standard, but in reality, it was only a 300 per square meter renovation standard...
After buying it, you couldn't live in it for a few years before the "deluxe" renovation might be scrapped, requiring a complete re-renovation!
Therefore, new homes delivered after 2020 often saw various rights protection claims even before handover.
Some developers couldn't afford the losses and simply abandoned projects and ran away...
Even a top developer, with luxury homes starting at 5 million, built garages that were uneven off-road tracks.
Some developers' walls could have dust scraped off with a finger!
Indeed, many people were scammed.
It can be said that, overall, the mid-rise buildings delivered after 2020 were less reliable in quality than the high-rise buildings of 2018.
This is also why Wang Yi wanted to build his own residential complex; those peers were truly unreliable.
Wang Yi certainly didn't want to be living somewhere ten years later, only for a small earthquake to crack the entire building!
Wang Yi planned for two of these three communities to be 33-story high-rises, to make money.
The community with the best location would feature 10-15 story foreign-style houses and mid-rises, all with large flat layouts.
The price would also be 10,000 yuan more expensive than the high-rise communities!
The focus would be on low density, large flat layouts, luxury homes, and Wenxuan school district housing!
"Sining, how are the construction drawings and such for Meiyou Technology Park coming along?"
Song Sining said:
"I contacted the design institute yesterday. With your simple planning sketches, they don't need to redesign, so progress is very fast. All designs have been completed and submitted for approval. Once approved, construction can begin!"
"Very good, we can start bidding now. We need to recruit construction teams with reliable quality and the best reputation!"
"Okay,"
Song Sining replied.
Meiyou Technology Park is commercial and financial land, more than ten times more expensive than industrial land.
Although it is currently in the large eastern suburbs, once the financial center is planned, it will become Jizhou's financial center, or even the city center!
At that time, every inch of land will be precious.
In Wang Yi's design blueprint, the entire industrial park mainly consists of office buildings over thirty stories and more than a hundred meters tall.
300 acres of land, 30 office buildings, a magnificent sight!
And with the 518-meter skyscraper, so many office buildings won't be needed then.
But it's fine; when housing prices peak in 2017-2018, Wang Yi will sell all the excess office buildings at high prices!
The income from these office buildings will be an enormous sum!
Once the 518 skyscraper is built, all Meiyou departments will move into the skyscraper.
At that time, the office building cluster used for self-occupation can also be sold at a high price!
Therefore, the 518 skyscraper must be completed by 2017!
Those office buildings can also be sold at the highest price!
The High-tech Zone has preferential tax policies, and businesses throughout Jizhou, even the entire province, want to move there.
For example, corporate income tax is generally 25%, but after the High-tech Zone's preferential policies, it becomes 15%!
Many companies will consider moving there just for the 10 percentage point tax break.
When they come, they will need office space.
Wang Yi's newly built Meiyou Industrial Park, magnificent and in a prime location, is their best choice!
And Wang Yi's three newly built large residential complexes are also the best choice for their employees to buy homes!
To put it plainly, Wang Yi's office buildings and residential buildings already have their customers lined up!
Even before they move, they have already become Wang Yi's target customers.
Including employees of nearby companies like Inspur, who earn substantial salaries, are also Wang Yi's target customers!
The next morning, Wang Yi arrived at the game department.
Liang Qiye quickly stood up:
"Boss, you're here."
Wang Yi waved his hand:
"Sit down. How is the development of 'Defend the Pomelo' progressing?"
"Overall development has been completed, and several rounds of testing showed no issues. Currently, foreign voice packs have also been integrated and are undergoing testing. There are no major problems, and it can be officially launched at any time."
Wang Yi nodded:
"Very good, progress is good. As for the launch time, let's postpone it for a while."
With the massive success of "33 Days of Lost Love," Meiyou and its spokesperson both exploded in popularity, and there were too many things to release.
Pure Desire style autumn clothing, cosmetics, the Zhenyou brand, "Defend the Pomelo"... all needed to be released.
Wang Yi could only queue up and arrange to release one new product at a time, with an interval between releases.
Once the new product's popularity reached saturation, the next batch of new products would be released.
There was no other way; currently, they relied on Meiyou users and fans of spokesperson Ye Xiaohe.
Whether Meiyou users or Ye Xiaohe's fans, their numbers were limited.
If Wang Yi released all the Pure Desire style autumn clothing, cosmetics, games, and so on, all at once, fans and users would be overwhelmed and unable to focus.
At that time, some fans would focus on the Pure Desire style autumn clothing, some on cosmetics, and some would go play games...
Such dispersion would actually be counterproductive.
It would be better to schedule the time, line them up, and release them one by one.
This way, each new product could gain maximum exposure and achieve the highest profit!
"First, perfect this one. Later, when you have the energy, you can develop and design new maps for version 2.0!"
"Understood, Boss!"
"By the way, the game hasn't been released yet, so there's no performance. That means you won't get a bonus this time. Don't be discouraged, do a good job with the game, optimize it well, and when the game is launched, everyone in your department will get a bonus next time!"
"Okay, Boss. We will."
Wang Yi nodded with satisfaction and turned to leave.
It was rare for him to return, so he had to inspect several important departments, which was unavoidable.
Afterward, Wang Yi went to Wenxuan Middle School.
Upon seeing Wang Yi's arrival, the senior management of Wenxuan Middle School warmly welcomed him.
Principal Chu even discussed his cousin's recent situation with Wang Yi:
"Student Xiyuan is very hardworking and will have no problem getting into a 985 university in the future. It's just that his English foundation is a bit weak, so I've arranged for the head of the English group to tutor him!"
Wang Yi couldn't help but laugh, the head of the English group, tutoring him one-on-one!
This treatment was simply heavenly!
There was nothing to be done.
The cousin of the major shareholder was personally looked after by Principal Chu, so how could the homeroom teacher and the head of the English group not pay attention?
Wang Yi's expression was complex.
Indeed, he had also become the privileged class he once hated the most!
Even without Wang Yi's instructions, they eagerly took the initiative to arrange things.
Wang Yi waved his hand:
"It's fine, no need to pay too much attention to Xiyuan, just let nature take its course."
"Okay."
Principal Chu nodded, but in his heart, he made up his mind:
Wang Xiyuan must be well-nurtured.
He should participate in any good projects, and it would be best if he could be recommended directly to a 985 university!
Wang Yi said not to pay too much attention, but he wouldn't be foolish enough to genuinely ignore it.
Afterward, the group arrived at the conference room.
The other shareholders had all arrived.
For such an important financing event, all shareholders had to be present.
Moreover, it was an investment of 100 million, making him the third-largest shareholder!
Principal Chu first gave a speech:
"I'd like to thank Mr. Wang Yi, CEO of Meiyou Technology, for his strong support and investment in Wenxuan Middle School, which allowed our school to complete its financing ahead of schedule. This means our new campus can begin construction this year!"
"Thank you, Boss Wang!"
Whoosh!
Thunderous applause erupted one after another.
In fact, the major shareholders of Wenxuan Middle School were all quite unique.
For example, the largest shareholder, Wenxuan School, was understandable.
It was their own new campus; if they didn't invest the majority, who would?
The second largest shareholder was the Lidong District Management Committee!
As Lidong District's top private prestigious school, Wenxuan supported Lidong District's educational high ground, which was of great significance, and Lidong District had to take it seriously.
Therefore, when Wenxuan Middle School needed to expand its new campus, the Lidong District Management Committee provided land, investment, and various forms of support...
Just as the High-tech Zone Management Committee supported Meiyou Technology, the Lidong District Management Committee also had to support Wenxuan Middle School.
Subsequently, Wang Yi was also invited to deliver a speech:
"Education has always been paramount. In ancient times, there was Mengmu Sanqian, and today, people spare no expense to get into prestigious schools! All of this illustrates the importance the world places on education."
"As one of the Sanhe Four Provinces, our province has a population of over 100 million, and newborns are as numerous as cattle. This leads to our students facing several times more difficulty getting into a prestigious 985 university compared to students in other cities!"
"Therefore, parents must attach great importance to it, must strive in education, and must try every possible way to get into prestigious schools."
"All we can do is expand prestigious schools and give them support!"
...
"So, I invested in Wenxuan Middle School's new campus. We can be poor, but not in education..."
"Good!"
Everyone applauded.
What Wang Yi said was very realistic and correct.
If the college entrance exam wasn't so difficult, who would spend hundreds of thousands to send their child to Wenxuan?
Subsequently, both parties signed the contract, and Wang Yi arranged for Meiyou Technology to transfer 100 million.
From then on, Wang Yi became the third-largest shareholder of Wenxuan Middle School.
Of course, the agreement also included that in a few years, Wang Yi's residential complex would be developed into key school district housing, and Wenxuan would provide teaching staff!
The school district housing was settled!
Another large piece of the over 60 billion commercial empire was completed!
Ordinary people, looking at the 518-meter skyscraper, would only see how much money it costs, how much loss, and deem it unprofitable...
But Wang Yi, looking at the 518-meter skyscraper, saw the terrifying appreciation prospects of nearby residential complexes, the bonus from school district housing, and over 60 billion in profits!
He also saw the effect of commercial clusters!
Xingyi Technology's 518-meter skyscraper + Sci-Tech Innovation Park + Meiyou Technology Park + Inspur Technology Park + Olympic Sports Center... plus the financial center industrial cluster planned for next year!
With this combination of punches, the entire eastern suburbs would instantly transform and ascend to become Jizhou's new center!
Even if the CBD is built more than a decade later, it might not be able to overshadow this area!
It truly couldn't be overshadowed.
By then, the 1,000 acres of residential complexes in Wang Yi's hands could generate over 60 billion in revenue.
The 300-acre technology park office building cluster could also generate 30 billion!
After selling all the houses, selling the real estate company along with its brand for over 10 billion would be no problem!
All in all, earning over 100 billion from this wave would be effortless.
Anyway, after 2018, the real estate market cooled down, so keeping a real estate company would be meaningless.
It would be more cost-effective to convert it into over 10 billion.
After the signing, Wenxuan's senior management took Wang Yi on a tour of Wenxuan School, and even wanted to invite Wang Yi to give a speech to the teachers and students.
But Wang Yi was genuinely not interested, so he politely declined.
Subsequently, several shareholders insisted on taking Wang Yi to a hotel and hosted a banquet to entertain him.
As expected, they drank until four in the afternoon before it ended.
Wang Yi, who appeared five parts drunk, had his afternoon factory inspection plans disrupted.
He could only be sent back by the Wenxuan staff.
It wasn't until Wang Yi's Porsche was parked downstairs at Yayuan Residential Complex, and they confirmed Wang Yi was fine, that they finally left.
"This drinking party was really fucking intense!"
Wang Yi sighed, instantly sobering up.
He really disliked this feeling.
Alcohol, a little drink is pleasant, but too much harms the body.
If one made a fool of oneself again, it would be a complete loss of face.
If he then encountered a backstabbing colleague who filmed it and posted it online, that would be it, instant social death.
In Wang Yi's previous life, at his workplace, there was a colleague who graduated from a prestigious university.
His performance and abilities were outstanding, and he was slated to be promoted to supervisor.
However, during a department gathering, a few colleagues flattered him a bit, and he got carried away, drinking too much.
It would have been fine if he just drank too much, but he insisted on singing.
It would have been fine if he just sang, but he also insisted on putting his arm around a female colleague's shoulder and singing a duet with her like a couple!
The female colleague didn't seem to mind, but unexpectedly, another male colleague, also drunk, filmed it and posted it online.
As a result, the female colleague's husband saw it, quickly took leave, rushed over, and beat up the male colleague from the prestigious university.
Subsequently, the company initially wanted to downplay the big matter and resolve the small matter.
But unexpectedly, the incident went viral online, the male colleague from the prestigious university suffered complete social death, and headquarters found out about it.
Now, the male colleague from the prestigious university, let alone getting promoted to supervisor, couldn't even keep his job!
He was directly called in for a talk by the general manager and resigned dejectedly the next day...
The colleague who posted the video, having eliminated a strong rival, thought he would be highly valued and become a supervisor.
But unexpectedly, because of this incident, he became a thorn in the leader's side.
New graduates might not understand such a petty trick, but the leaders saw right through it.
No leader would heavily rely on such a treacherous subordinate.
After all, leaders are also afraid of these "little photographers"!
Both major contenders were out, but Wang Yi, who was just observing, inadvertently became the department supervisor and earned an annual salary of 200,000!
