I confess, I am the Mr. Richest-Chapter 458: The Threat of the Top Real Estate Tycoon
Chapter 458: Chapter 458: The Threat of the Top Real Estate Tycoon
"""
The short-haired woman beside them fainted from fright.
Earlier, she was the one who spoke the most harshly, mocking Han Shishi with sarcasm and questioning where she got her courage from.
Now she understood—Han Shishi was closely connected to the president of the Prada Group. She finally realized where Han Shishi’s courage came from.
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and eventually, she fainted from the fear.
The short-haired woman was taken to the hospital, while the wavy-haired woman also hurriedly left Prada.
As for the job interview results, they were no longer important.
Now, even if Prada invited her directly to be a department manager, she wouldn’t dare to come.
Offending Han Shishi was equivalent to indirectly offending the president of Prada.
You’d have to be out of your mind to do that, right?
Other women who had ridiculed Han Shishi also hurriedly left.
Unfortunately, they misjudged Han Shishi, as she didn’t take it to heart.
At this moment, Han Shishi, led by the two interviewers, had already registered at the human resources department and headed to the design department.
To keep a low profile, Han Shishi didn’t let the two interviewers accompany her. Instead, she reported alone.
She also took this opportunity to test herself.
Meanwhile, at the Tang Palace Villa.
Initially, Chu Chen had intended to accompany Han Shishi to Prada, but something unexpected came up.
As Chu Chen was preparing to leave the villa to pick up Han Shishi, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Chu Chen opened the villa door and saw a young man in a suit standing there.
"Our boss Liu will be coming soon."
Seeing Chu Chen, the suited young man spoke as if making an announcement to him.
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen raised an eyebrow.
Boss Liu?
He didn’t know any influential or wealthy people with the last name Liu.
Moreover, if he wanted to come, he could just come. Did he need to be notified? Did they really think he would go out to greet them?
"Not interested."
Chu Chen replied indifferently.
Click.
The next second, Chu Chen closed the villa door, leaving the suited young man outside.
"You..."
Witnessing this, the suited young man was infuriated.
A few minutes later, a Maybach worth over twenty million yuan slowly drove up.
Seeing this, the suited young man hurried over and respectfully opened the car door.
"Boss Liu, you’re here."
As the door opened, a potbellied middle-aged man stepped out of the car. He was the one the suited young man referred to as Boss Liu.
"After knowing it was you, he still shut the door in your face, showing no respect for you."
The suited young man reported spitefully.
"Is that so?"
Boss Liu showed a hint of displeasure on his face.
"Go knock on the door again."
The knocking sounded again, and this time, Chu Chen opened the door and saw Boss Liu at first glance.
"I am Liu Ji’an, the chairman of Jiuding Real Estate Group from Yue City."
Boss Liu introduced himself.
Jiuding Real Estate Group was a well-known big enterprise in Yue City, with a market value nearing three hundred billion.
In the domestic real estate industry, it was quite a huge player!
Liu Ji’an, Chairman of Jiuding Real Estate Group, was a real estate magnate in Yue City with significant standing in the domestic real estate industry.
"Chu Chen."
Chu Chen replied calmly.
Liu Ji’an was quite surprised by Chu Chen’s calmness after knowing his identity.
Even after knowing who he was, he still remained so composed?
"Let’s cut to the chase—I’m not one to beat around the bush."
Not wanting Chu Chen to waste his time, Liu Ji’an came straight to the point,
"I’m interested in this villa. How about you sell it to me?"
After operating for two or three decades in Yue City, the real estate market there was pretty much divided up.
Jiuding Real Estate Group, looking to reach a higher status, increase its market value, and boost profits, had to expand into other cities.
After months of planning and selection, Liu Ji’an finally decided to come to Shanghai, aiming to take part in Shanghai’s real estate market.
After all, Shanghai’s housing prices were among the highest in the country.
If they managed to secure a share of Shanghai’s real estate market, Jiuding Real Estate Group would surely gain larger profits.
A few days ago, Liu Ji’an arrived in Shanghai.
Since the aim was to expand into the market, the entry of Jiuding Real Estate Group into Shanghai wasn’t something to be understated.
To make a splash in Shanghai, Liu Ji’an thought long and hard and finally targeted Tang Palace.
As the top luxury residential area in Shanghai, the wealthy and influential people in Shanghai were very interested in Tang Palace.
Although they say a strong dragon does not suppress a local snake, he was a dragon that insisted on going against the odds.
His first act was to give Shanghai’s affluent residents a "shock."
This time, he wanted to buy several villas in Tang Palace and then widely publicize them in order to expand his, and Jiuding Real Estate Group’s, influence in Shanghai.
He inquired and then came looking for Chu Chen.
"Oh, by the way, I’m talking about three Tang Palace villas, not just one."
Liu Ji’an added.
"Sell them to me, and you name your price."
Liu Ji’an appeared wealthy and arrogant.
"What if I don’t want to sell them to you?"
Chu Chen shook his head.
This Liu Ji’an actually wanted three villas?!
Was he joking?
If he sold the villas, where would he live?
Used to the comfort of a single villa, Chu Chen wasn’t willing to move back to Tomson Riviera for now.
Moreover, Chu Chen wasn’t short of money now.
"Three villas, thirty billion."
Liu Ji’an made an offer, attempting to overwhelm Chu Chen with money.
"Not selling."
"Thirty-five billion!"
Chu Chen shook his head again.
"Forty billion!"
Gritting his teeth, Liu Ji’an offered forty billion, which was nearing his limit.
"I’ve said, they’re not for sale."
Chu Chen had no intention of dealing with Liu Ji’an and was about to close the villa door.
"Hold on— As far as I know, your Prada Group is currently in a slump. Although there’s some recovery, returning to the peak would require significant funds."
Liu Ji’an learned from Chu Chen’s neighbor, the president of Jiang Investment Group, that Chu Chen owned three villas.
Because Chu Chen’s neighbor only knew that Chu Chen was the president of Prada Group, this was the only identity Liu Ji’an was informed of.
Liu Ji’an didn’t take Chu Chen seriously, even somewhat looking down on him.
Although Prada was quite reputable, an internationally renowned luxury goods group, its market value was quite ordinary.
Even at its peak, it was just over a hundred billion, not to mention that it was currently still in a slump, with only a market value of a few hundred billion.
A mere couple of hundred billion in market value was trash in the eyes of Liu Ji’an, Chairman of the three hundred billion market cap Jiuding Real Estate Group.
"By the way, I know the Asia-Pacific presidents of Chanel and Dior too. They are keeping a close watch on Prada Group."
Looking at Chu Chen, Liu Ji’an hinted with a slightly threatening tone.
"I advise you to sell the three Tang Palace villas to me. This way, you’ll secure a large sum."
"With this money, Prada Group might even make a turnaround, right?"
Liu Ji’an said again.
"Is that so?"
Chu Chen sneered and retorted.
Those who dared threaten him often had to pay a heavy price.
