After hanging up with Liu Tianfeng, Fan Yu returned to Garden in Garden.
He was preparing to create an app for everyone, so he needed to promote internet celebrities. He felt that Zhuang Xiaoting would be suitable as the app's flagship influencer. As a professional fitness coach, she was worth supporting.
With that decided, Fan Yu ate something and went to rest.
The night passed without incident. In the morning, the system's prompt sounded in Fan Yu's mind as promised once more.
"Ding, today's check-in has begun."
"Check in."
The daily check-in was like a lottery drawing, filling him with anticipation.
"Ding, check-in successful. The host has received one smart duplex apartment at Tomson Riviera."
A home at Tomson Riviera?
Fan Yu smiled faintly.
Tomson Riviera had the most expensive housing prices in Magic City. An ordinary apartment there cost over a hundred million, making it an absolute gathering place for the wealthy.
Of course, Tomson Riviera was merely expensive. It could not really be called exceptionally high-end.
Still, Tomson Riviera was a symbol of wealth. Precisely because its prices were so high, countless people flocked to it willingly.
The property ownership certificate for Tomson Riviera would not be delivered by someone as it had been for Financial Street. It would be issued directly by the system.
At seven in the morning, he got up early for once.
After washing up, Fan Yu drove to Zhang Qian's company.
When he entered the company, Zhang Qian was already at work and had begun busying herself.
There were far too many documents to sign every day, and Zhang Qian had been exhausted these past two days.
"Boss," an employee greeted him.
Upon hearing that the boss had arrived, everyone in the company turned to look.
Fan Yu smiled. "Good morning, everyone."
Aoshu Company's income was now very considerable, bringing in nearly one million yuan a day. Thanks to its good reputation and extensive advertising, most photon product buyers across the country chose Arcane Photonics Technology Company.
"You're here. I've already had Shengda increase the shipment by ten million yuan, but Shengda alone may no longer be able to meet our market demand."
Seeing Fan Yu, Zhang Qian spoke up.
"It looks like setting up the factory needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible. The technical personnel should arrive today. Have someone pick them up from the airport."
"I'll go myself."
Zhang Qian nodded.
"I've already had someone handle the factory site. Once the technical personnel arrive, have Uncle and Big Brother learn the technology from them. Have you contacted the construction company for the factory? How long will it take to finish?"
Fan Yu frowned.
Zhang Qian said, "About three months."
"No, that's too slow. One month. At the latest, one month. If they can't do it, we'll find someone else."
"Give me the builder's number. I'll talk to him myself."
Fan Yu got the builder's number and called directly.
The phone rang for a while before it was finally answered.
"Hello, who is this?"
A man's voice came through, sounding as though he had not fully woken up.
Fan Yu frowned. "Are you Gao Ye from Huihuang Real Estate?"
"I'm Gao Ye. Who are you? Why are you calling so early in the morning?"
"I'm Fan Yu, Chairman of Arcane Photonics Technology Company."
"I just heard from General Manager Zhang Qian that it will take your company three months to build the factory?"
Hearing that it was the project they had negotiated yesterday, Gao Ye became slightly more alert.
"That's right. Three months is already fast. If it goes slowly, it could take five months."
"No, that's too slow. If you can finish it in one month, I'll award the contract to you. If not, I'll find someone else."
Fan Yu spoke in a deep voice.
"Heh, do you think factory buildings are so easy to construct? One month? Do you not care about quality? Ask around Magic City—if Huihuang won't take a project, who would dare take it?"
"If you don't give the contract to us, your factory will never be finished."
Beep, beep, beep!
A busy signal came from the phone. The other party had hung up.
Huihuang was one of Magic City's top real estate companies. It was said that Huihuang had even participated in the construction of Tomson Riviera back then. Although it had only contracted a small portion of the project, the investment had still been close to one billion.
In the office, Zhang Qian had heard the conversation between Fan Yu and Gao Ye. Seeing the call get hung up, she did not know what to say for a moment.
"This is interesting."
Fan Yu's smile disappeared.
"Fan Yu, why don't we try another company? There are several real estate companies in Magic City that aren't weaker than Huihuang."
Huihuang had accepted the construction of Aoshu Company's factory only because Aoshu Company had offered a high price—nearly one hundred million yuan. For factory construction, that was a major project.
Building a factory was not as complicated as constructing a high-rise. It did not require an excessive amount of manpower or resources. As long as the factory buildings were sturdy, a workshop could be completed in a few days.
As long as they worked day and night, they could absolutely finish it within a month.
Huihuang was a powerful real estate company and always wanted to make a little more. With its abundant financial resources and connections, it naturally wanted to squeeze more profit from a project like Aoshu Company's.
If Aoshu went to another construction company, Huihuang would make Aoshu understand just how powerful it was.
