Under Xiao Qiang's words.
Xu Jia, who founded Hengda in the 1990s because he failed to negotiate a salary increase with the company and thus decided to strike out on his own, became even more solemn.
I know that the words "blind and thoughtless" will definitely not be applicable to him.
How could someone who is highly favored by Secretary Zhang and Secretary Yan be as despicable as those ignorant people say!
What I can't figure out now is where he gets his confidence in the real estate industry. As far as the domestic situation is concerned, the golden age of the real estate industry has long passed.
Now, in this business of real estate, whoever enters will suffer losses. Where does he get the confidence to go against the trend? Xu Jia shook his head and said.
"Mr. Xu, is it necessary for us to ponder over these things?" Xiao Qiang was puzzled."No, it is necessary!"
Xu Jia raised his hand.
The reason why he is so highly favored by Secretary Zhang and Secretary Yan, and even Secretary Zhang wants to adopt him as his grandson, do you think he could have such treatment if he didn't possess extraordinary abilities?
I visited Secretary Zhang some time ago, and Secretary Zhang's exact words were that he would become the lighthouse of the times in the coming decades!
"A lighthouse of the times?"Said by Secretary Zhang, who is highly respected and has been in power for half a lifetime, making outstanding contributions to the economic take-off of Jiangzhou?
This...
His foresight and analysis of the future trends are extremely remarkable.
At least in the eyes of Secretary Zhang, he is the best! For such a person to choose to enter the real estate industry at this time is not normal, definitely not normal! Xu Jia said.
"Mr. Xu, do you mean that with his foresight and analysis of the future trends, he has analyzed that there is still a lot of room in the real estate industry? Or that it will welcome a booming second spring?" Xiao Qiang was confused.
"No!" Xu Jia shook his head firmly.
If that were the case, I think he would be frantically hoarding land, but he didn't.
For example, in this land auction at the National Land Resources Trading Center, it's not just the land on Half Mountain.
There are also several other plots, but he didn't make a move! In addition, just now on the phone, he wasn't very interested in the land reserves of Hengda Real Estate.
This shouldn't be faked!
Taking a long breath, Xu Jia continued, "After all, the last time at the group headquarters, he did tell me that he didn't think much of our land reserves! With my experience and judgment over the years, I don't think he said that on purpose to play hard to get. If he really was playing hard to get and sending such a signal, and I couldn't see through it, then I might as well have lived these years in vain!"
Hearing this, Xiao Qiang frowned.He said, "So, Mr. Xu, you asked me to make this phone call and put up the pretense of a land transaction, just to test whether he is really not interested in ordinary land? And to test whether the development direction of Tenglong Real Estate is not the traditional real estate operation model?"
Xu Jia smiled self-deprecatingly without answering directly.
"In fact, when I think about it, asking you to make this phone call is really a low-level and foolish act! I should have known that with his intelligence, he definitely wouldn't think that our Hengda Group really wants to sell the land!"
After saying that, he then explained to Xiao Qiang, "However, this also reflects that he is really not interested in ordinary land, and it reflects that the development direction of Tenglong Real Estate won't be the same old thing that we've already done!"
Xiao Qiang was silent for a short while.His mind was racing.
Then he said, "Mr. Xu, do you have the intention of having Hengda Real Estate cooperate with Tenglong Real Estate?"
Unexpectedly, Xu Jia still shook his head.
He said, "Xiao Qiang, how many years have you been with Hengda?""Eight years!" Xiao Qiang said.
"Yes, it's been eight years. At that time, the focus of Hengda Group was only on real estate. I remember that the annual revenue was less than 7 billion yuan. After you came, in these eight years, the revenue of Hengda Real Estate soared all the way, reaching more than 40 billion yuan the year before last! In six years, it increased by nearly eight times! I, Xu Jia, can confidently say that I am a legend. Of course, you, Xiao Qiang, have made great contributions to the outstanding achievements of Hengda Real Estate! However, in the past two years, due to a series of national policy regulations and the general environment, the real estate industry has entered a depressed and declining period. Even so, as one of the beneficiaries of the industry's dividends, and a giant beneficiary at that, Hengda can still keep going relying on its foundation, it's just that the dividends are a bit less!
Having said this, Xu Jia paused for a moment. "It's a pity. I miscalculated! I was too persistent in my pursuit of building a business empire. In recent years, as Ye Chen said before, Hengda Group has taken too big steps and has even lost its way.
And the price... to put it crudely, is that we've overstretched ourselves.
That's right, Hengda is now in such a situation. With so many wounds, it can no longer shift its focus back to the real estate industry. Mainly, there's no time to waste on the real estate industry anymore!
Just as he said on the phone just now, even if Hengda only needs to provide the land and he provides the funds, and then we split the profits fifty-fifty after the development, I'm not interested, because it takes too long and the capital return is too slow, which makes me completely rule it out of consideration! Xu Jia said.
Xiao Qiang pursed his lips.
A rare look of hesitation appeared on his face. "Mr. Xu, has Hengda really reached that state?"
It depends on when the national policies come down hard. You've been with me for eight years and can be said to be one of my most trusted confidants, so I won't hide it from you. Also, I believe you've more or less guessed it.
That's right...
Even though Hengda Group hasn't reached a life-and-death situation yet, it's already in a precarious state.
If this situation can't be improved, it will be in a very dangerous situation.
If it can't be saved in that dangerous situation, then it will be a matter of life and death! Xu Jia said solemnly.
Beside him.Xiao Qiang looked at the side profile of this business legend in China and suddenly realized that he seemed to have aged a lot.
Compared with his high spirits, dominance in the business world, and arrogance two years ago.It can't even be described as being haggard.
He was simply a completely different person!Desolate. Yes... What Xiao Qiang saw was desolation, the kind of desolation like the decline of a hero.
Before Xiao Qiang, who had fallen silent, could speak.
Xu Jia said again, "So, I asked you to make that phone call to him just to test his financial strength! To see if there's any possibility of seeking strategic cooperation with him, let him hold shares in Hengda's new energy vehicles.
And also... consider whether to cooperate with him on the Jinzhong Village project!
Although it can be foreseen that the development project of Jinzhong Village will surely take off one day, no matter how promising the Jinzhong Village project is, it will take at least a few years to complete the layout!
Hengda can't wait that long. Unless we make a drastic decision to cut off the new energy vehicle sector, but we've invested tens of billions of yuan in it over the years.
How can it be cut off so easily! So, if we want to pursue both aspects simultaneously, we must find a partner. Otherwise... we simply can't hold on!"
In the long sigh at the end of his words.Xu Jia's eyes were full of worry.Will Ye Chen become a partner of Hengda Group?And is Ye Chen willing to become a partner of Hengda Group?
