"No need, you don't have to worry about this. When the technicians arrive, I'll hand it over to you."
Fan Yu stood up and left the company.
After leaving the company, Fan Yu sat in his car and called Liu Jian.
"Boss."
As soon as the phone rang, Liu Jian answered.
"Contact Lu Zhendong from Huihuang and tell him to come see me."
The call ended. Listening to the dial tone, Liu Jian could feel Fan Yu's anger even through the phone.
Liu Jian quickly found Lu Zhendong's number and dialed it.
Lu Zhendong was a well-known figure in Magic City, so Liu Jian naturally knew him.
"Haha, President Liu, what brings you to call me today?"
A hearty laugh came through the phone.
Liu Jian said in a deep voice, "My boss wants to see you."
"Your boss?"
Lu Zhendong's expression turned serious. There was only one person Liu Jian would call "boss," and that was the owner of Financial Street.
Huihuang Real Estate Group was indeed powerful, but it depended on who they were compared to. The person who owned a top-ranked position in the world and the entire Financial Street was not someone Huihuang could compare with; he was a truly important figure.
"Does President Liu know what this is about?"
"No, but the boss seems very unhappy."
Liu Jian said in a deep voice.
"Okay, I'll head over now. Are you at Financial Street?"
"Yes."
Driving to Garden-in-Garden, Liu Jian was already waiting there.
Seeing the detached villa that symbolized status, Lu Zhendong felt some pressure.
However, upon seeing the car parked in the yard and its license plate, Lu Zhendong's expression changed in surprise.
Hu A88888. It used to be his license plate. He had obtained this plate relatively early. Later, a big shot bought it from him for only one million.
It was a joke. Hu A88888, even in the past, was worth more than that, at least five million. But he couldn't afford to offend that big shot. Giving him one million was just offering him a way out. Even if he had given it away for free, he probably would have handed it over obediently.
With a sense of dread, he followed Liu Jian into the villa.
Fan Yu was sitting on the sofa in the living room, reading a magazine.
"Boss, he's here."
"Mr. Fan, I finally get to meet you. It's truly an honor."
Lu Zhendong said enthusiastically, his face showing excitement.
Although it was a harmonious society, no matter how strong Fan Yu's power was, if he didn't show respect, he wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
But the consequence would be that his company would be acquired, or even worse, threatened with bankruptcy, turning him into a pauper overnight.
This was no joke. The rent from Financial Street for one year could match the market value of his entire group. Fan Yu definitely had the power to do so. After all, rent was actual cash, while his company's value was just market value.
Fan Yu calmly put down the magazine he was holding and pointed to the documents on the coffee table. "Director Lu, please take a look."
Lu Zhendong walked over curiously and picked up the documents to read.
"Mr. Fan wants my company to undertake a project?"
Lu Zhendong had thought that Fan Yu summoned him because he had offended him somewhere. He hadn't expected it to be a discussion about cooperation.
Did one project require all this trouble? Couldn't he just say it over the phone? Why go through such a grand gesture, making him worry all morning, thinking something had happened?
However, Liu Jian, who had been working with Fan Yu for some time, had a certain understanding of him.
The boss had always been very approachable. If it were just a business transaction, he definitely wouldn't act like this.
"Keep reading."
Fan Yu said calmly.
Lu Zhendong flipped to the end of the document with confusion. When he saw the signature of Gao Ye, the deputy general manager of Huihuang Group, his heart skipped a beat.
"See? I've finished my contract negotiations with your Huihuang company, but there's one thing that I find interesting."
"This morning, I called Gao Ye, your company's deputy general manager. Because the company I co-founded with friends needs to build a factory and time is a bit tight, I wanted him to rush the project. He told me it wasn't possible and also said that in the entire Magic City, if Huihuang doesn't take on a project, no one else dares to."
"What do you think? I want to find someone to build a factory, but no one dares to take it? Am I doing something illegal?"
"This... Mr. Fan, please don't be angry. Perhaps Gao Ye was joking. I'll call and ask him right now."
"No need, just have him come over directly and say those words to me again. I want to see if he's joking," Fan Yu said with a cold laugh.
Liu Jian adjusted his glasses. "Director Lu, Mr. Fan's instructions are for you to follow them."
How did Gao Ye become the vice president of Huihuang? Does he have no brains? Liu Jian didn't quite understand.
"Uh, okay, Mr. Fan, I'll have him come over right now."
He made the call, and Gao Ye answered, "Brother-in-law, why are you up so early today?"
Lu Zhendong said in a deep voice, "Did you take on a project from Aoshu Company yesterday?"
"Yeah? What's wrong?"
Gao Ye was a bit confused. What was going on today? This morning, the chairman of Aoshu Company called him, somewhat imperiously demanding that he complete the project within a week, and now his brother-in-law was calling to inquire about Aoshu Company.
"I'm at the chairman of Aoshu Company's place right now. You should come over too."
The call ended, and Gao Ye jolted upright in bed.
His wife, who was only twenty-nine, asked, "Honey, what's wrong? What has you like this?"
"I have to go out. The chairman wants to see me."
After saying that, he quickly put on his clothes, rushed downstairs, and drove towards Financial Street.
Even though the roads in Magic City were very congested, Gao Ye still arrived quickly.
Entering the villa, Gao Ye felt like Liu Grandma visiting the Grand View Garden. He was filled with shock. He had never heard of a secluded garden within Financial Street.
"Brother-in-law, I'm late."
Gao Ye wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Lu Zhendong said expressionlessly, "Let me introduce you. This is General Manager Liu from the Financial Street Property Management Company."
"Ah, hello, General Manager Liu."
Gao Ye quickly stepped forward to shake Liu Jian's hand.
But Liu Jian didn't extend his hand at all.
"Over there is my boss, Mr. Fan. The boss wanted to see you today."
Gao Ye awkwardly withdrew his hand and looked towards Fan Yu.
At first glance, he was young, very handsome, and likely over 1.80 meters tall. Although young, he exuded a commanding presence as he sat there.
"Hello, Mr. Fan."
Gao Ye didn't dare to step forward, greeting him from where he stood.
Fan Yu smiled playfully. "Director Gao, have you forgotten me so soon?"
"Huh?"
Gao Ye looked closely at Fan Yu and shook his head. "Mr. Fan, how could I possibly know someone of your stature?"
"Heh, didn't I just finish a call with you this morning, Director Gao? You really have a poor memory, Director Gao."
"This morning?"
A scene Gao Ye dared not imagine flashed through his mind.
"This, this..."
Fan Yu nodded. "That's right, I am the chairman of that Aoshu Company."
"Mr. Fan, it was you who called this morning? I wasn't fully awake then, so please forgive any disrespect."
