Monster Factory-Chapter 667: Unexpected price.
Chapter 667: Unexpected price.
Person No. 74 is a project manager in the construction department of Huge Industrial Monster. His name is Jiang Xiaoze. He is 26 this year. After graduating from civil engineering school, he worked in a supervisory company. When the Huge Industrial Monster was going to build its building, Jiang Xiaoze was assigned there to be in charge of the project, then he jumped ranks in the Huge Industrial Monster.
When the auctioneer, who was invited by a government employee, announced the start of the sale of plot No. 2, Jiang Xiaoze was a little nervous for no reason, and at the same time, he was also a little indescribably excited as soon as the auction started, knowing that their target was not this land.
The price was increased by at least 500,000 Yuan at a time. Shortly after the No. 2 pitch was called, a girl sitting next to a stranger held up a sign. It seems like everyone has their own goals and has a tacit understanding of each other. After he had raised the sign, no one else continued to bid.
After three announcements, no bids were made, and the auctioneer struck the gavel in disappointment.
"The auction below is plot No. 5, with an area of 13 Mu, and the starting price is 25 million."
Unlike plot No. 2, plot No. 5 was vacated. A German immediately raised his sign and shouted 27 million in English.
"Thirty million." A representative of an American car company in the front row smiles back.
"Thirty-two million."
"Thirty-five million."
"I will pay forty million."
"Damn, did all their money come from a lot of water?" Jiang Xiao, who represented the Huge Industrial Monster said in a low voice while listening to the price increase, some dared not answer the question: "Plot No. 5 is worth up to 30 million Yuan is sold at 40 million Yuan, and there are still a few plots below, so why are they staring at No. 5?"
"Plot No. 5 is close to the exhibition hall. That's the reason," the employee who was with him said uncertainly.
After six rounds of bidding, all the land in front of them was sold and a smile appeared on the face of the auctioneer.
Finally, it was the turn of the last piece of land: not everyone was free to stand upright, and the bidding cards in their hands were about to move.
The last lot is plot No. 1, covering an area of 30 acres. At the same time, its location is the best among all plots.
Tanjiawanzhen is located by the Tianjiang River, the Tianjiang River Bridge is on the left, and the bustling Jiulongpo is on the other side. Plot No. 1 is located at the end of the centerline of the road in the Motor City. That is, whoever buys plot No. 1 and builds the building, as soon as they walk through the big gate of the Motor City, they can see a building across the road. Bayu City has many mountains, and many residential buildings and commercial streets are built in the mountains. Tanjiawanzhen International Automobile City is also built on the mountain, and the No. 1 plot is the best and most eye-catching in terms of Feng Shui, layout, and location. Usually, there is a representative building, or central building, in a major international automobile city like this.
Anyone with a trained eye can see that plot No. 1 is located at the end of the center axis and has the largest area. The land should be backfilled and the buildings high. Plot No. 1 is where the central building is, as a general standing there, commanding the younger brothers around.
Therefore, plot No. 1 was placed last, and the starting price was also the highest, 50 million Yuan. 𝗳𝙧𝘦𝒆𝑤𝙚𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃ℯ𝑙. 𝐜𝐨𝑚
"Please bid if you are interested!"
Jiang Xiaoze took a deep breath, told himself to calm down, and immediately raised his sign: "51 million."
"Sixty million."
"Sixty-three million."
"Seventy million."
......
The accident has happened. Jiang Xiaoze was the first to raise his sign to add 1 million. Before he could catch his breath, the bidders in the front rows immediately raised the sign for an open class with the teacher, and the students below were excited. It was like raising your hand to answer a question. Bidding votes one after another quickly brought the No. 1 lot to over 100 million Yuan. This price exceeded this site's estimated value, but on the auction site, no one seems to care.
"Plus two million," Jiang Xiaoze bid again.
His supply was quickly removed again and eventually reached 150 million, and the supply gradually stabilized. Several bidders shook their heads helplessly, and it looked like they were planning to drop the bid.
Jiang Xiaoze again increased the price by 2 million, this time when the auctioneer asked for the second time if there was anyone else raising the price. Seated in the second row, the vice-president of the Auto Union of Stuttgart asked the assistant next to him to hold a sign.
"One hundred and eighty million."
Jiang Xiaoze snapped in his head, what does this old man want to do, raise the price by 28 million at once?
There is no possibility of malicious bidding here. No matter how much you bid, you have to spend to buy the land. Jiang Xiaoze couldn't understand why the other party did this, but the Huge Industrial Monster had to win this piece of land.
The employee who was with Jiang Xiaoze asked him to raise the prize to 2 million again, but Vice President Briganshaw seemed intent on showing off his wealth in front of him and directly called the prize 200 million.
"Plus two million."
Jiang Xiaoze calmed down, although he could call the price to 300 million at once so that the other party could retreat. But the money belongs to the business, and every time it adds a little less, it can help the business save more money.
"Two hundred and ten million."
This time Briganshaw himself raised the sign, and at the same time, there was a sound of discussion in the room. A price increase of eight million more than the other party and it is evident that Briganshaw is showing an imperative attitude. Jiang Xiaoze was always overweight, and over time, foreigners looked at him with amazing eyes.
When the overweight hit 260 million, beads of sweat appeared on Briganshaw's forehead, just like the strangers around him, it seems like they'd reached their limit.
"Mr. Burnhouse," Briganshaw whispered to the US representative next door as if calling for help.
"Oops, hurry up and call Director Wu and ask him to ask Mr. Ye for instructions," Jiang Xiaoze saw the German and American figures were meeting and talking in secret and quickly waved to his colleagues to call President Ye.
When the auctioneer announced it for the second time, Jiang Xiaoze raised his bid again. There, the secret conversation did not stop, and they also adopted a dilatory strategy and they only added two million when the auctioneer was about to strike the gavel to adjudicate.
But this delay can only be extended for a few seconds, and Jiang Xiaoze failed to reach the other side of Chairman Ye. When it was Briganshaw's turn to raise the price again, the other party had already ended the secret conversation and directly announced the price of 300 million.
Jiang Xiaoze gritted his teeth and again raised the price by 2 million. There should be no problem with fluctuating prices. At the same time, the phone was connected to it. Construction Department Director Wu directly used another phone to call Ye Qing on his personal cell phone.
"God, are they crazy?" Briganshaw couldn't tell if they were in pain. They wanted to show their determination to win by participating in the auction. But every time the other party is like candy, they will increase the price by two million.
"Three hundred million and two!" Briganshaw's face gradually turned into a mad expression, and now there is no talk of buying land and losing money. Instead, they must fight for breath, expressing their determination not to allow Chinese national brands into the Motor City.
"I'm on the phone first, I'm on the phone." Wu Xiaofan, the director of the construction department, did not expect the other party to raise the price from 300 million with two million Yuan, which is completely crazy. But after Director Wu dialed the phone, the phone kept ringing.
"Three hundred and twenty million."
"Once."
The auctioneer's voice trembled. The price of plot No. 1 had exceeded the sum of all previous lands. It was definitely an unexpected bonus like winning the lottery.
Briganshaw, who was bidding, wished he could rush to the stage and grab the auctioneer's gavel, he was really afraid of a voice saying plus two million.
"Manager Wu, do you want to raise the price?" Jiang Xiaoze didn't dare to make up his mind. In fact, he thought the price of over 320 million Yuan was already beyond consideration. With this money, an energy service center can be built in a better place in Bayu City.
"Second time."
The auctioneer's voice grew even louder. Manager Wu was also undecided, 320 million and two, which was beyond the range he had dared to ask.
"Beep~beep~beep~" Just when a few people thought the CEO's call would be automatically disconnected, Ye Qing's voice finally came.
"Manager Wu, what is it?"
"No, Mr. Ye, the other party has outbid..." Manager Wu shouted at the speed of a machine gun.
"Third time!"
"Bang!"
There, the auctioneer banged his gavel.
"..."
"Mr. Ye, we lost Bayu City plot."
