The Bootlicking Antagonist Only Wants to Survive, but the Female Lead Refuses to Follow the Usual Plot

Chapter 172 Who else!?

Mayor Zhao looked at the contract for a long time.

He was troubled.

Adjournment.

Mayor Zhao paced around in his office, Secretary Wu said:

"Mayor Zhao, this is a rare opportunity, a rare opportunity! If the Oriental Group is really willing to take over, this project will be alive! If they invest 100 billion, they will definitely not give up later on. They must finish it before they can get back their capital! This is the best choice! It is also the safest choice!"

Mayor Zhao sighed: "I know, but Dasheng..."

"We can't just consider Dasheng's feelings. Let's compensate them. If 100 billion is injected, all the money they invested will be compensated, and they won't lose money. But this 100 billion and Dasheng Group's money are two different things! This is money from foreign companies invested in our city, which is completely different from Dasheng's local capital investment!"

"It's not... not very righteous, right? The government must be trustworthy!"

"We're not trying to cheat Dasheng either, Lu Chengwen is also a man who can afford to let go, he will understand. Besides, we will compensate them for the hundreds of billions invested by their four major families before and after, and leave the rest to Dongfang Let's do it. Our vision should focus on developing Xuecheng, long-term stability, and people's well-being. Dasheng Group... I am also very grateful for their timely help. But compared with the interests of millions of people in Xuecheng..."

In the small conference room.

Huo Wendong was playing with a toy signature pen.

"Chengwen, you won't be angry, will you? Oh, actually, I don't know what's going on between the two of us these days, but it seems that everything is coming together. Hehe. But business is like this, you understand, right?"

Lu Chengwen smiled and said: "Would you like a drink?"

"Okay!"

Jiang Shihan poured a glass of wine for both of them.

Lu Chengwen said: "You saw that I had set up the scene, found out that you could make money here, and immediately came to pry, right?"

Huo Wendong slapped his thigh: "Chengwen! You really have a way! When I went to the construction site that day, I felt that you were doing a good job. Later... after that day, I went to see it again, and it was really good. I asked my subordinates to find the blueprints for me to study, and sent them to my dad overnight, hey! My dad also praised you for your ability and vision!"

Lu Chengwen smiled slightly: "It's still your Huo family who has a lot of money."

Huo Wendong laughed: "Chengwen, don't worry about that! How much you invested, it's all mine. Since I took over, it's equivalent to my investment from the very beginning. Actually, this project is very dangerous for you, I'm also I'm saving you, you have to appreciate it!"

"Didn't Long Aotian follow you?"

"Damn it, don't mention it! That bastard is a poor guy, and he pretends to be so awesome all day long, talking to me in a commanding tone from time to time, as if he is the proud son of heaven! Chengwen, we..."

At this time, the door of the meeting room was pushed open, and a staff member said: "The meeting resumes. Please take your seats."

It was lively.

Now that Huo Wendong has appeared, these people wanted to withdraw even more.

It was a breach of contract for them to withdraw before, and the money they invested before was wasted.

But now that the Oriental Group wants to take over, nature has changed. You have to make up for all the funds you invested. And then it's up to you to continue investing the rest.

Huo Wendong became the focus of attention.

No matter who mentioned their own affairs, Huo Wendong agreed with a smile: "No problem, I will make up for your losses!"

Mayor Zhao looked at Lu Chengwen: "Chengwen, you started this matter, tell me your opinion."

Lu Chengwen stood up: "In a word, I won't withdraw!"

Everyone was surprised.

Li Meiqin whispered: "Mr. Lu, it is very beneficial for us to withdraw at this time..."

"Shut up."

Lu Chengwen said: "I'm not at ease handing over this project to others. Our Dasheng Group will continue to work until we see it completed smoothly."

Huo Wendong smiled: "Lu Chengwen, I'm not trying to step on your face in front of so many people, you can do it if you say so? Do you have that much money? Don't you read financial statements? Don't you have an accounting team? How can your family's little wealth support the construction of a city? Let me remind you that hundreds of billions are just the initial investment, and the later investment will definitely be more than one trillion! Think carefully before making a decision. ."

"I've made up my mind, I won't withdraw."

Huo Wendong was a little unhappy: "Lu Chengwen, don't be angry, okay? This is doing business, and doing business is like this! Who can you blame if you don't have money in your pocket? There is no good end to insisting! I warn you, wait When your Lu family can't hold on anymore, let me take over, it's not the current conditions!"

"I can definitely finish it."

Lu Chengwen looked at Mayor Zhao and Secretary Wu: "Mayor Zhao, Secretary Wu, I just want to ask you one question, is this project still Dasheng Group's? Will it still be handed over to Dasheng?"

Mayor Zhao smiled: "Of course, we signed a contract."

Secretary Wu was anxious, stood up, and said: "Mr. Lu, we all know that you have feelings for this project, and you have feelings for the fathers and elders in your hometown. We are very moved, really moved. But things have come to this point, I really sincerely suggest you seriously consider Mr. Huo's proposal."

"Mayor Zhao and I have studied it. If you want to withdraw, we will compensate you for all your losses. We will subsidize the investment during this period according to the highest bank interest rate! At the same time, we promised to give Dasheng Group All kinds of preferential policies are completely intact! We are not crossing the river and tearing down the bridge, I hope you can understand that we have this heart for the hundreds of thousands of people in the shanty town."

Lu Chengwen didn't give Secretary Wu a good face at this time:

"The highest bank interest rate subsidy? Secretary Wu, you probably haven't read the contract carefully, right? The contract clearly states that if our investment chain is broken, all investments will not be compensated! If the government forcibly terminates the contract against the wishes of Dasheng Group, it must give me more than 50% compensation! I invest 30 billion, and you have to pay me back 45 billion! I invest 50 billion, and you have to pay me back 75 billion!"

Secretary Wu's face turned pale: "Mr. Lu, don't get excited, I'm also thinking about you, it seems that the investment in the later stage is really too big, I'm afraid..."

"Afraid that I won't be able to hold on!?" Lu Chengwen stared: "I said I can! I can!"

Lu Chengwen said: "Mayor Zhao, I'm still saying that I'm not at ease handing over this project to others! I, Lu Chengwen, will keep working, and if I can't do it halfway, I will admit how much money I have invested! Now I just want you to give me a letter, is this project still Dasheng Group's?"

Mayor Zhao smiled: "Of course."

"Okay!" Lu Chengwen slapped the table: "Don't you all want to withdraw your investment! I'll tell you the truth, even if I, Lu Chengwen, am the only one left, I won't let go! Oriental Group wants to take over, you have to get my consent! You either follow me all the way to the end, or you just admit that you are unlucky and don't want to get a penny! Besides, how much money have you invested? It's not even 3 billion together!"

At this time, Zhang Tuofeng also smiled.

As the president of the Chamber of Commerce, he will be invited to attend this kind of large-scale meeting.

Zhang Tuofeng immediately said: "Respected Mayor Zhao, Secretary Wu, since Mr. Lu has made up his mind, shall we vote?"

Secretary Wu was anxious: "Tuofeng, why are you in such a hurry!? Aren't we discussing this!?"

Mayor Zhao smiled and said to Huo Wendong: "Wendong, you have seen it all. The Lu family, Xu family, Chen family, Leng family, and the business representatives present, the money they have invested in the project's special account already There are more than 80 billion. If this 80 billion is by the contract, if the breach of contract requires 50% liquidated damages, then 120 billion will have to be paid to them. If you can get 120 billion to compensate them, and then inject 100 billion capital, this project will be yours. Oh, of course, there are still hundreds of billions in the account that have not been moved, so your actual expenditure is probably about 150 billion."

Huo Wendong thought to himself, are you kidding me!?

Am I here to give out benefits to you in Xuecheng!?

If I take over this project, I will have to pay four to five billion directly!?

In more than a month, you have made a lot of money from me just by relying on this project, what happened to me? Am I a money-giving boy!?

It's all Lu Chengwen!

This kid is just going against me!

Damn it, I gave you a face and you don't even want it!

Huo Wendong's face was extremely ugly: "Chengwen, for the sake of our classmates, I'll give you one last chance, as long as you know..."

"No need, Wendong, what I want is a chance to gamble, not a chance you give me."

"Okay, okay, okay, you're good, you're really good. I'll just see where you get so much money to invest in this! Let's go!"

Huo Wendong was so angry that he ignored etiquette, didn't say hello to Mayor Zhao, turned around, and left.

Secretary Wu was very anxious: "Mr. Huo, Mr. Huo, don't worry, let's talk slowly, hey, Mr. Huo..."

He said anxiously: "Mayor Zhao, he left?"

Mayor Zhao said with a smile: "I saw it."

"But... this... such a good opportunity! How can you..."

Mayor Zhao started to play hooligan: "Chengwen has a contract, he talks to us with the contract, and I talk to Huo Wendong about the contract, what can I do? If Huo Wendong had come three months earlier, this project would definitely have been his. already."

Secretary Wu understood.

Even though Mayor Zhao understood the weight of interests in this matter, he still favored Lu Chengwen.

But people have to follow the rules!

When you had no money, Lu Chengwen paid, you were very happy, signed the contract, and he paid quickly.

Now you want to replace someone after half of the work is done, then you have to pay!

You can't afford to pay, who can you replace?

If you want to change, you have to change to someone who can afford it!

If you pay out 260 billion, I will replace someone immediately.

Not only you are happy, but Lu Chengwen and I are also happy, everyone here is happy.

This money is so cool.

The rest of the people began to scold, accusing Lu Chengwen one after another.

To be angry with Huo Wendong, they ruined their chance to withdraw their capital.

Lu Chengwen got angry: "Stop nagging, I didn't force you to sign the contract! Those who want to withdraw their capital, speak up!"

Hu Shuhui immediately took the lead: "Damn, I'm withdrawing! 70 million is just for feeding the dogs! Lu Chengwen, in three months, I'll see how you start construction and purchase goods! When your Dasheng Group goes bankrupt, I'll see how your companies are going to sell for a good price!"

Everyone was withdrawing their investment frantically.

Lu Chengwen remained motionless, sitting in place, looking calm and composed.

In the end, Lu Chengwen smiled and said: "Okay! Only me left?"

"No, there's me." Leng Qingqiu said with a smile: "Qianfeng Group will inject another 20 billion yuan into the construction of Chengwen District. Ah, I think Chengwen District is pretty good, the name doesn't need to be changed."

"Me too!" Chen Mengyun said: "The Chen family will also inject another 20 billion! And, if there is a shortage of money in the future, our Chen family will sell everything to support Lu Chengwen! Support Dasheng Group!"

"Me too!" Xu Xuejiao also got excited: "Although I don't have money, I will go back and force my dad to give me money. I will sell my dad's pot, and I will support Brother Chengwen!"

Lu Chengwen was surprised.

The three girls looked at him and smiled.

At that moment, Lu Chengwen suddenly wanted to cry.
