Chapter 32 I'll try to be more tactful
Lin Shuyi was wearing a lot of top-notch luxury goods. It was obvious that she was either rich or noble. Lu Yiming also wanted to make friends with her, so he took advantage of the relationship between Zheng Zhiguang and Zheng Fengting and said, "After having a meal with Manager Zheng, I should also return the favor. I suggest you not to invest in real estate in Hong Kong ."
Lin Shuyi frowned, feeling a little unhappy, thinking that Lu Yiming was a little boastful, mainly because he was too young, and was a classmate of her cousin. What could a young man from the mainland who was only in the second year of high school understand?
But Lu Yiming was her cousin's classmate and Zheng Zhiguang's client, so she couldn't refute him in public. She sneered in her heart but remained expressionless on her face: "Why?"
Lu Yiming smiled. He could see that Lin Shuyi's attitude was cold, so he knew that his idea of making good friends would fail. His tone suddenly became casual: "Nothing, I just said it casually. It's up to you whether you listen or not."
Although Lin Shuyi looks quiet and elegant, she is born into a wealthy family and is naturally proud. Investing in real estate in Hong Kong is also a plan she has carefully considered, and she has also received strong .
Now Lu Yiming was pretending right in front of her, which immediately made her very unhappy: "Student Lu, if you have any good ideas, why not tell me? It doesn't matter if you are wrong, let's discuss it with each other."
Zheng Zhiguang knew Lin Shuyi's character very well. He knew that Lin Shuyi was arrogant and strong-willed. If Lu Yiming opposed her decision in public, it would be embarrassing for her. So he stopped Lu Yiming and tried to change the subject: "You asked me to treat you. You ordered so much. Are you going to eat it or not? It won't taste good if it gets cold later."
Lu Yiming naturally realized that Lin Shuyi was clearly waiting to laugh at him.
But Lu Yiming didn't care about this at all. He crossed his legs and said calmly, "It's not a brilliant idea. At most, it's just a little bit better than your stupid behavior of buying a house in Hong Kong."
Seeing him so arrogant, Lin Shuyi and Zheng Zhiguang were a little angry. Are the young people nowadays so arrogant?
He simply doesn't take these old seniors seriously.
At this moment, Zheng Zhiguang was too lazy to speak up for Lu Yiming anymore. He was bringing trouble upon himself.
Zheng Fengting, on the other hand, was very excited and urged: "Zha Ming, please tell me why we can't buy a house in Hong Kong ?"
Facing the gazes of the three people, Lu Yiming looked calm and spoke in a calm tone. He first looked at Lin Shuyi: "If I'm not mistaken, your goal is to expand Jingwan Group's business to Hong Kong, right?"
"So what ?"
Lin Shuyi was not surprised at all that Lu Yiming recognized her identity, and she neither denied nor admitted his questions. It was obvious that she was still highly wary and suspicious of Lu Yiming at this moment, and would never easily reveal the strategic direction of Jingwan Group.
In fact, Lu Yiming was able to recognize her only because in his previous life, Jingwan Group was very famous in Baiyun, and his father Lin Yuantao was even known as Lin Baiyi. Lin Shuyi later took charge of the group and inherited a huge fortune, becoming the richest woman in Baiyun.
Although Lin Shuyi's identity was not simple, Lu Yiming did not take it to heart, and his words were not euphemistic at all: "If so, then my evaluation is only one, stupid."
"Say it again!"
Lin Shuyi half-closed her almond-shaped eyes and clenched her teeth, as if she was ready to pounce on Lu Yiming and give him a vicious bite at any time.
Lu Yiming's words were really too irritating. Entering the Hong Kong real estate industry was a decision made by Lin Yuantao. As she admired her father very much, she was naturally dissatisfied and even angry at Lu Yiming's "slander".
Seeing Lin Shuyi's fierce response, Lu Yiming also saw the clue and realized that Jingwan Group was indeed aiming at Hong Kong.
In his previous life, Lu Yiming was puzzled as to why Jingwan Group started so early in the real estate industry and was located in Baiyun, adjacent to the two Feng Shui treasures of Yangcheng and Pengcheng, but was overtaken by other peers and eventually became lost in the crowd and stopped being a medium-sized real estate company.
Now we finally find the reason. Isn't it a dead end to acquire land in Hong Kong since 1998?
Lu Yiming looked at Lin Shuyi and said, "You are Lin Yuantao's daughter. It's easy for you to hear nice words. There are many people willing to curry favor with you. But what I'm going to say next is not so nice."
Zheng Fengting and Zheng Zhiguang were both stunned. It was the first time for them to see someone dare to speak to Lin Shuyi like that.
As for Li Yiwen, he now wants to die. That's Lin Yuantao, the richest man in Baiyun, but his cousin just scolded him without any control over his words.
Can't you just say what you want to say nicely?
Is it necessary to offend people to death like this?
Li Yiwen was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He wanted to interrupt to ease the atmosphere, but when he met Lin Shuyi's murderous gaze, he couldn't utter a word.
There was no way, Lin Shuyi's aura was too strong and suppressed him completely.
Facing all kinds of gazes from the crowd, Lu Yiming showed no intention of restraining himself.
"Does your Lin family think that after the financial crisis, Hong Kong's economy has suffered a severe blow and land prices have plummeted, so you think now is a good time to buy at the bottom?"
Although Lu Yiming criticized her for nothing, Lin Shuyi was a real socialite with great shrewdness. After taking a few deep breaths, her expression gradually calmed down.
"Is there something wrong?"
"Of course not, and the idea is extremely stupid."
Zheng Fengting couldn't listen any longer, and slammed the table and said, "Lu Yiming, speak properly!"
Lu Yiming quickly begged for mercy: "Okay, then I'll try to be more tactful."
He held up two fingers and said, "I only have three questions."
"First, after Hong Kong returned to China, the English used various means to sweep away most of the wealth, and a large number of middle-class families chose to immigrate. I want to ask you, who are you going to sell the land and houses that Jingwan Group is going to build to?"
"Secondly, Hong Kong is a small country, but there are more than ten real estate companies with a scale of over 100 billion. The wealth is mainly in the hands of a few big families. They control the real estate, ports, energy and other industries. Why does Jingwan Group think it can break through this encirclement and gain a foothold in Hong Kong?"
"Third, Hong Kong's past prosperity was based on the premise that it was the only port for foreign investment. But now that the mainland is opening up, Hong Kong is no longer the only choice for foreign investors. They have better options, such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and China Overseas. So, why do you think that Hong Kong's economy will recover quickly instead of falling into a long-term downturn?"
