Chapter 659: It doesn’t matter, I will take action
Looking at Lu Yiming's smug look, not to mention Zhao Bin, even Luo Yongjie who was sitting next to Zhao Bin clenched his fists.
He and Zhao Bin are now like grasshoppers on the same rope. It is also a humiliation for Zhao Bin to be teased by Lu Yiming.
After all, he still follows Zhao Bin's lead.
Seeing Zhao Bin holding his chest, Luo Yongjie was afraid that something had happened, so he quickly asked, "Mr. Zhao, are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?"
Zhao Bin waved his hands and said weakly, "It's okay."
Luo Yongjie gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "What do you think? Should we follow?"
Zhao Bin looked at Lu Yiming with resentment and whispered, "Why are you following him? Do you still have money? He is obviously teasing us. Even if we grit our teeth and raise the price, he won't let us do what we want. At this price, he can't make any profit."
"Losing money to gain publicity?"
Thinking of this, Luo Yongjie felt better.
Liu Hang on the stage had actually already noticed Lu Yiming and Zhao Bin.
He had been the host of the auction for so many years, so he was good at reading people's expressions. From the moment Lu Yiming raised the price so much, he knew that Lu Yiming was determined to get the land.
However, what Liu Hang didn't expect was that Zhao Bin would come out and challenge Lu Yiming.
He dares to compete with Mr. Lu in spending money, so he must be said to be a brave man.
As the price level climbed, Liu Hang was also smiling in his heart. After all, as a host, he could take a commission.
Seeing the price rising higher and higher, Liu Hang's palms were sweating with nervousness as he held the microphone, and he kept repeating in his heart: "Increase it, increase it..."
He is not just watching the fun, it is purely related to his interests. After all, the higher the price, the higher his commission.
He didn't care whether those people could come up with that much money after bidding, or whether they could make money after spending so much money to buy the land.
Seeing that the price reached 1.2 billion, Liu Hang's breathing began to quicken. After all, this was a number that even he could not imagine.
Real estate hasn't taken off yet.
When Lu Yiming shouted out 1.215 billion, Liu Hang's eyes were focused on Zhao Bin.
The others had given up long ago, and now only Zhao Bin was still bidding with Lu Yiming.
Now Lu Yiming has only added a mere five million. Will Zhao Bin follow suit?
Liu Hang knew that Lu Yiming was attacking him. He wanted to come to Zhao Bin and say, "I'm not trying to cause trouble, but how can you bear this? We must beat him."
It's a pity he can't say it.
Seeing the discussion on the scene, Zhao Bin did not continue to raise the price, and Liu Hang could not help but feel regretful. When the bidding time was over, he had to pick up the microphone and said, "1.215 billion once."
The scene was silent.
No one has the ability to add more.
Apart from Lu Yiming, no one at the scene could have predicted how crazy the future real estate market would be.
This is a large plot of land in the city center, and it can be acquired for a mere 1.2 billion yuan. Lu Yiming is almost laughing like crazy.
If ten years pass, even if the price doubles and then adds another zero, it may not be possible to buy it.
Liu Hang saw that no one had any intention of raising a sign, and even Zhao Bin, who he had high hopes for, seemed to have given up struggling. He couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
He is a real man to be able to endure being ridiculed like that.
However, Zhao Bin didn't want to, but he really didn't have a drop left now.
I have the will but not the ability.
"One billion two hundred and fifteen million for the second time. Any more to add?"
"One hundred and twenty-one hundred and five hundred for the third time, deal!"
With the fall of the hammer, Plot No. 6 was won by Lu Yiming.
There was spontaneous applause at the scene.
"Mr. Lu is awesome."
“That’s amazing.”
"1.2 billion, plus the commission is close to 1.3 billion. He is indeed the richest man. It's a big deal."
"This price is too high. I don't know if the richest man can still make money."
"Since the richest man dares to shout, he must have his own way. To be honest, I'm quite curious."
"I'm curious too, so I'll keep paying attention."
Lu Yiming listened to the discussions around him about whether he would lose money, and smiled without saying anything.
Eighteen years later, Zhonghai City is famous both at home and abroad, and is known as the Magic City. It is a super international metropolis city that is on par with New York in the United States and Edo in the island country, and ranks sixth in the world!
Billions of dollars worth of land is just a common occurrence, and there have even been records of the highest unit price of residential sales of 300,000 or 400,000 yuan per square meter.
Will it be a loss to spend some money to buy land now?
So funny!
Even if you hold on to it after development, you will not lose money. How much you earn depends on your mood.
All of Lu Yiming's money is his own and he doesn't owe the bank a penny, so he doesn't have to worry about capital turnover, let alone interest and profit. So he can completely complete the development and wait ten or eight years before considering selling it to maximize his profits.
Why can't other real estate developers do this?
If you calculate carefully, the profit margins of real estate developers are actually not as much as those of real estate speculators.
As a result, many real estate companies in later generations would rather build houses and hold on to them rather than sell them.
Some of them couldn't cover up their own deaths.
But those who managed to hold on all became rich.
With the auction of Plot No. 6 coming to an end, the entire auction has come to an end.
"Next, we have the highlight of this auction, Plot 7! Plot 7 is not only adjacent to Plot 6, but also close to the mountains and water. It has the best location and the largest area in this auction. It has great potential for appreciation, and I hope all the bosses will bid enthusiastically."
A map of Plot No. 7 appeared on the big screen behind Liu Hang.
Many bosses who have failed to succeed before are now gearing up to grab this last chance.
Li Yiwen said: "No wonder you didn't raise your card before, it turns out you chose number six."
Lu Yiming made a fist gesture and said, "Only poor people make choices, rich people of course want everything."
When Li Yiwen heard this, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and asked, "So?"
Lu Yiming smiled and said, "So I must take over plot number seven as well!"
"I lost..."
Li Yiwen blurted out a Chinese curse, and then said: "Do you know what you are talking about? I have to remind you that you just spent . Are you going to spend that much again?"
Lu Yiming smiled and said, "The location here is better and the place is bigger. How can 1.3 billion be enough?"
Li Yiwen: “…”
Although it sounds reasonable, why do you want to hit someone so much?
The location of plot 7 is next to plot 6. If there is enough capital, it will definitely make more money if it is planned and developed in a unified manner. Now that Lu Yiming has taken plot 6, there is naturally no reason to let go of plot 7.
The real estate tycoons in Hong Kong are restricted from entering the auction this time, and no domestic real estate companies have the appetite for the time being, so everyone wants to share the meat. Only Lu Yiming, the fierce dragon that crossed the river, plans to take it all!
As expected, the starting price of Plot 7 reached 800 million, and each bid must not be less than 10 million. It is foreseeable that this price is bound to make a group of people retreat, and Plot 7 has become a battlefield for the top rich to compete.
Everyone knows that Plot No. 7 is of great value. Plot No. 6 was sold for more than 1.2 billion yuan, so the price of Plot No. 7 must be even higher.
Everyone thought so, so everyone adopted a wait-and-see attitude and no one raised a sign.
This made Liu Hang break out in a cold sweat.
Just now, Plot No. 6 was the finale to be auctioned and it was sold at a very good price. It is impossible that this big axis could not be taken over and it would be directly unsold, right?
Just as he was planning to liven up the atmosphere, someone finally raised a sign.
"Why are all the bosses so modest when it comes to the last trick? Forget it, I'll give you a sample, 810 million."
Although the asking price is only 10 million, it is a good start.
Liu Hang breathed a sigh of relief.
Not only Liu Hang breathed a sigh of relief, but the others also breathed a sigh of relief and looked towards the person who spoke.
"Oh my goodness, I've been holding it in for so long. Finally someone has taken the initiative."
“I thought it was going to fail.”
"It doesn't matter. I will do it."
It was easier once someone took the lead, and the atmosphere on the scene became lively again.
"Eight hundred and thirty million."
"Eight hundred and fifty million."
"Nine hundred million."
Everyone knows that the land is good, and the auction is coming to an end. Of course, everyone comes to participate in the auction because they want to gain something, not just to join in the fun.
Therefore, many bosses who have ideas and capabilities but have not yet achieved success are very enthusiastic in bidding.
Zhao Bin sat in his seat with an expressionless face and did not hold up a sign. No one knew what he was thinking.
Luo Yongjie asked, "This is the last piece. Should we make a move? We didn't win the bid for Plot 6 just now, which is also a positive for us. We can go all in for Plot 7."
After a pause, a cunning smile appeared on his face: "Isn't Plot 7 right next to Plot 6? If we take over Plot 7, we can also find a chance to trip up Plot 6."
Hearing what Luo Yongjie said, Zhao Bin's eyes lit up, and a slightly cruel smile appeared on his face: "You are right, the person who dares to snatch things from me, Zhao, has not yet been born! I must make this Lu regret his actions for the rest of his life!"
Luo Yongjie also sneered and said, "This guy just spent more than 1 billion yuan. He definitely doesn't have the ability to continue competing with us. We have a great chance of winning."
When Zhao Bin heard Luo Yongjie mention Lu Yiming, he reflexively felt uncomfortable, but Luo Yongjie's words gave him a shot in the arm.
"That's right. His assets are only worth tens of billions, and these are assets, not cash. Taking out more than a billion at once would definitely occupy his cash flow. It's impossible for him to come up with a large sum of money."
"Of course. Didn't you see that he didn't even hold up the sign? Even though he looks arrogant, he's just bluffing."
After analyzing the situation, the two of them confirmed that Lu Yiming would not continue to raise the sign, and they felt more at ease. They watched others raise their signs at ease, thinking about making a decisive move later.
Soon, the price exceeded 1 billion. Luo Yongjie and Zhao Bin looked in the direction of Lu Yiming and smiles immediately appeared on their faces.
Luo Yongjie said: "He hasn't raised his sign yet, right?"
Zhao Bin said confidently: "No need to think, they must be out of money. My guess is correct."
He went on to say, "It's over 1 billion. My psychological price is about 1.1 or 1.2 billion, so I can bid for it. Although Plot 7 is bigger than Plot 6 and has a better location, the price of Plot 6 is not normal. It's all driven up by this idiot."
Luo Yongjie naturally agreed with Zhao Bin's judgment: "Let's see, when the time comes, we can just bid directly. I believe no one will compete with us."
Thinking that there would be results soon, which would not only humiliate Lu Yiming severely but also make things difficult for Lu Yiming in the long years to come, Zhao Bin's heart was filled with joy and he raised the sign directly.
"1.1 billion!"
His voice immediately attracted everyone's attention, and everyone remembered the fear they had just felt when they were dominated by Mr. Lu.
"Are you done yet? Are you here to argue with us again?"
"Can't these guys just calm down? How can they add up to 100 million at a time?"
"There's no chance for anyone to survive."
"Damn, I thought I had a chance with this last piece of land."
"You're just thinking too much."
There is no doubt that the scene of Lu Yiming and Zhao Bin bidding against each other just now is still vivid in everyone's mind. Now that Zhao Bin raised his sign, many people reluctantly put down their signs and gave up the fight.
When gods fight, mortals should not join in the fun.
"If I had known that there would be two gods like these today, I would not have come and wasted my time."
"Indeed, I still have a lot of documents to read, so I've been delayed."
"Let's finish it, hurry up, I'm tired."
After Zhao Bin called out his price, the number of people raising placards suddenly decreased. It was often after a while before someone raised a placard, tentatively raising the price by 10 million. There was no longer the momentum of rushing to bid as before.
When Liu Hang saw it, he immediately became unhappy.
This won't do. Plot No. 6 was just auctioned for nearly 1.3 billion yuan. How come the price of Plot No. 7, which has a better location and a larger area, has eased to less than 1.2 billion yuan?
This is a bit anticlimactic.
Fortunately, Lu Yiming didn't make him wait too long.
"1.3 billion!"
It’s still the familiar recipe, it’s still the familiar taste, I’ll just add a hundred million as a token of my appreciation.
As soon as Lu Yiming opened his mouth, Zhao Bin and Luo Yongjie were stunned.
"Damn it, he's doing it again!"
"Damn, does this guy still have so much money?"
Luo Yongjie's mood sank to the bottom.
Zhao Bin also had an ominous premonition in his heart.
But as a second-generation, it would be too embarrassing if I was slapped in the face twice by the same person at the same auction. If this matter gets out, how can I survive in the circle?
In addition, if this piece of land cannot be obtained, it will disrupt the subsequent overall plan.
Therefore, Zhao Bin did not give in this time. Even if he had to borrow money, he would not let Lu Yiming get his wish!
"1.4 billion!"
Although the price was 300 million more than expected, Zhao Bin no longer cared about that.
Don’t try to save face by not making steamed buns!
This scene made the eyes of other people who wanted to bid go dark.
"Fuck, these two are here again!"
"It's endless."
"Mr. Lu, please retract your magical power."
Lu Yiming had not made any move before, and everyone thought that Lu Yiming would stop after acquiring Plot No. 6, but now it seems that is not the case at all.
He was just waiting for his skill to cool down.
Now, one hundred million after another is added. How can you let others have fun?
However, many people focused their attention on Zhao Bin.
"This man was just severely humiliated by Mr. Lu, and now it seems he wants revenge."
"You can tell by looking at his expression. Isn't it just adding one hundred million at a time? These two are now at odds with each other."
"Well, although I didn't gain anything, I was able to see the excitement, so it was worth the trip."
“I don’t know how high this price will go.”
"Let's look forward to it. If it can break 2 billion, it will definitely be big news that will shock the whole country."
"Two billion? Are you planning to use this price for charity? There's no way you can make money from it, right?"
"Hey, I'm just saying, what kind of idiot would spend 2 billion to buy a piece of land?"
Seeing Zhao Bin calling out a high price of 1.4 billion, Lu Yiming looked sideways and said with a smile: "Interesting, is he planning to go all out?"
Lu Yiming had already figured out Zhao Bin's background, so he was not panicking at all. He calmly held up the sign and shouted out a number that made people despair.
"Seventeen billion."
Didn't you add 100 million? Then I'll add 200 million, do you want to follow?
"I drafted it! ＠#￥％……&&＊"
This number completely broke Zhao Bin's defense. He stood up and planned to challenge Lu Yiming for a real PK. Luo Yongjie had to use a lot of effort to hold him down.
"Don't be impulsive. Hitting people is against the law."
"Breaking the law? I am the law!"
Zhao Bin roared angrily and shouted directly: "Lu Yiming, what do you mean?"
This shout immediately attracted everyone's attention, and even woke up several people who were resting with their eyes closed.
"Oh my god, what's going on?"
"Why are you so angry for no reason?"
"Don't be impulsive."
"Young people have really hot tempers."
"Nonsense, you would be angry too if it were you. It's obvious that Mr. Lu is deliberately stepping on others. I feel so aggrieved for this guy."
"What's wrong with being upset? They're bidding according to the rules. Why are you upset? Let's see who's the winner."
"Yes, Mr. Lu didn't break the rules. His temper is set off by his ability. If he has no ability and still has a bad temper, he is an idiot."
Facing Zhao Bin's question, Lu Yiming calmly said, "What do you mean? Buying land, are you blind and can't you see it?"
Luo Yongjie felt that his breathing was not smooth after hearing this: "Didn't you already buy one? A person should be content with what he has and stop when he is ahead!"
Lu Yiming rolled his eyes and said, "I have money, what's your business? If you have the ability, go ahead and add more, I'm not stopping you."
"I'm..."
Although what Lu Yiming said was true, Zhao Bin thought this behavior was too infuriating. Wasn't it just like stepping on him like shit?
On the stage, Liu Hang was also startled by the shout, but instead of saying anything to stop it, he added fuel to the fire and said, "It's already 1.7 billion, is there anyone who wants to add more?"
