After obtaining the crucial information, Yang Hao sent a message to Wang Jingru: “Negotiate for ten percent!”
Experience tales at empire
Wang Jingru picked up her phone, glanced at it, and then nodded gently to Yang Hao.
What followed was a game of wits between the two women. Normally, negotiations for such large-scale investments would span several rounds.
However, the situation at hand was a bit different, with Xingyue Real Estate needing an injection of cash flow urgently, and the shares Yang Hao desired were within their affordable range.
So, after a battle of words, the two women reached a preliminary intent for cooperation.
Yang Hao invested ten billion and obtained ten percent of the shares in Xingyue Real Estate.
“Mr. Yang, I look forward to our pleasant cooperation!”
With the preliminary framework for cooperation established and Su Jianye, who had been silent throughout, stood up with a smile and shook hands with Yang Hao. Selling ten percent of Xingyue Real Estate shares for ten billion was just within his limit of endurance.
“Pleasant cooperation.”
“However, I do have a small request.”
Yang Hao spoke as he shook hands with Su Jianye.
“Please speak, Mr. Yang.”
Yang Hao hadn’t said a word during the negotiation, so it was within reason for him to make a small request now.
“After the investment cooperation is completed, I will also be a major shareholder of Xingyue Real Estate.”
“I hope Su can assume the position of the Group’s General Manager, which would give me a greater sense of security!”
Yang Hao had learned during the earlier introduction that Su Xiaoxi’s position within Xingyue Real Estate was that of a Deputy General Manager.
And the Kidney-Deficient Young Master was the General Manager, but with his “double D” rating, if Xingyue Real Estate continued to employ such a manager, Yang Hao’s ten billion investment might soon go to waste.
Even though this was just a task for welfare and he would still profit immensely even if the ten billion were completely lost, no one wanted their investment to evaporate so readily.
After hearing Yang Hao’s words, Su Xiaoxi was slightly startled; she hadn’t expected Yang Hao to make such a request.
The smile on Su Jianye’s face only grew. He had long lost patience with his inept son but hadn’t yet made a firm decision.
Originally, after Su Xiaoxi had brought in Yang Hao as a major shareholder, Su Jianye had already been considering replacing his useless son with his daughter, and now Yang Hao making the suggestion himself would help him divert some of his son’s resentment.
See, it was the major shareholder who made the request!
Offending the Kidney-Deficient Young Master was of no concern to Yang Hao. In fact, he had deliberately made the statement in front of him to slap the guy’s face.
Since the moment Yang Hao entered the Su family, that guy had cursed him in his heart no fewer than ten times!
You can only curse and complain in your heart, but I’ll openly disgust you to your face!
“Since when is it your turn to make decisions about the affairs of our Xingyue Real Estate??”
After hearing Yang Hao’s words, Su Hongxing, the Kidney-Deficient Young Master, could no longer sit still and lashed out, slapping the table.
“Director Su, it seems that your noble son does not welcome my investment in Xingyue Real Estate?”
Yang Hao ignored the Kidney-Deficient Young Master and looked at Su Jianye instead.
“Shut up!”
“You have no say here!”
“Get out of here!!”
Su Jianye directed his scolding straight at Su Hongxing’s nose.
“Dad, why should he…”
“Get out now!!”
Su Jianye harshly interrupted the Kidney-Deficient Young Master before he could finish his retort.
Then, putting on a smile, Su Jianye turned back to Yang Hao and said, “I will accept Mr. Yang’s suggestion. From now on, Xiaoxi will be our group’s General Manager.”
Yang Hao shrugged with a smile: “Hmm, that will make me feel much more secure!”
“By the way, the day Director Su takes office will be the same day my investment is deposited!”
Having finished speaking, Yang Hao looked at the infuriated Kidney-Deficient Young Master with a chuckle.
Su Hongxing: MMP, it must be that bitch Su Xiaoxi who slept with him, whispering sweet nothings in his ear!
And she claims she’s never been in a relationship, who knows how many men she has slept with!!
“Director Su, let’s leave it at that for today.”
“We’ll let Director Wang and Manager Su handle the follow-up details.”
Yang Hao then shook hands with Su Jianye again.
“I’ll see Mr. Yang out!”
Su Jianye warmly escorted Yang Hao to the door.
“Yang, thank you for your trust.”
Su Xiaoxi said earnestly.
“Su, good luck!”
“I hope you won’t let down my trust!”
Yang Hao smiled and nodded.
“Don’t worry, Yang. Xingyue Real Estate will only get better and better!”
Su Xiaoxi assured him with a serious demeanor.
Although they sold ten percent of the shares, the Su family remained the largest shareholder of Xingyue Real Estate, with a controlling share of fifty-two percent; therefore, no one wished for the company to prosper more than the Su family.
After seeing off Yang Hao and Wang Jingru,
Su Jianye said to Su Xiaoxi as they walked back into the courtyard: “I will immediately call a board meeting to announce your appointment as the General Manager of the group.”
“Move forward with the cooperation as soon as possible!”
“Alright.”
Su Xiaoxi nodded, feigning composure.
Yet inside, she was thrilled to no end; the mentality of favoring males over females was particularly severe among both the rich and the poor in Hua Country.
That was also the reason why the worthless brother was still put in the position of general manager by Su Jianye despite his incompetence.
But this time, her father had finally made up his mind to officially support her. Su Xiaoxi’s efforts had always been for this day, and now her wish was finally fulfilled!
Su Xiaoxi was somewhat grateful she had decided to attend the alumni celebration of her alma mater. She had originally gone with a hit-or-miss attitude but hadn’t expected to actually bring in a big shareholder like Yang Hao!
“Dad, you can’t listen to that Yang guy!”
“I may not have made notable contributions over these years, but I’ve certainly put in the hard work!”
“The group is facing some difficulties now, but it’s mainly because of the poor economic climate, which has nothing to do with me!”
“Anyone in this position would be the same!”
Su Hongxing came out of the house with a gloomy face and said.
“If you’re incompetent, just admit it, and don’t fucking talk about the macro environment!”
Su Jianye glared at his son in frustration, “In a bit, I’m going to hold a board meeting. Handle the handover with Xiaoxi gracefully and don’t embarrass me!”
“Dad, give me another chance!”
“I can definitely manage the group well.”
Su Hongxing was grabbing his father’s arm, begging.
“Enough of your nonsense!”
“You’ve heard it yourself, Mr. Yang is investing because he sees potential in your sister’s ability!”
“If you can show me ten billion right now, you can keep your position as general manager!” Su Jianye said sternly.
Upon hearing this, Su Hongxing was immediately at a loss for words. He too had been busy trying to drum up investments lately, but let alone ten billion, he couldn’t even secure one billion!
Now that even ordinary people were aware that real estate developers were having a hard time, which wealthy individual would want to put their money in real estate!
So despite all his hustling, Su Hongxing hadn’t managed to secure a single penny.
“Dad, if I were a woman, I could have made things crystal clear with Yang!”
“Too bad, I’m not a woman!”
“If Yang liked men, I would have offered myself without hesitation!”
Su Hongxing started to speak sarcastically about his sister Su Xiaoxi, insinuating that she secured the investment by offering sexual favors.
“Don’t fucking prattle on!”
“Tidy yourself up and come to the company with me!”
Su Jianye cursed out without wanting to bother with his useless son any longer. Although he was unaware if his daughter had engaged in that kind of transaction with Yang Hao, it didn’t matter to him. What was important was that his daughter had secured the investment, and Xingyue Real Estate could escape from its predicament.
Su Xiaoxi looked at Su Hongxing with disdain: “Just because you are incapable doesn’t mean others are!”
“My investment efforts are based on merit, not the kind of methods you’re implying!”
“To put it plainly, if sleeping could bring in ten billion, that too would be a form of capability, okay!”
“You admitted it!”
“You fucking slept with Yang!”
Su Hongxing cursed with his mouth askew.
“Okay, enough, both of you. We’re going to the company now!”
Su Jianye scolded sternly with a stern face, then went to the changing room to change clothes.
Su Xiaoxi, on the other hand, was making a phone call to the side, not wanting to deal with her worthless brother anymore.
On the other side.
Yang Hao and Wang Jingru returned to Tianmei Media together. Since Yang Hao did not drive, they casually hailed a cab.
The driver was using a BYD Qin, the model from 798, with slightly cramped space in the back, which made Wang Jingru, the “aunt-in-law,” sit very close to Yang Hao.
She could smell the strong scent of male hormones emanating from Mr. Yang, very alluring to her, and it made her feel an urge to rest her head against him.
Especially since the ride-share driver was driving a bit aggressively, the occasional sharp turn would cause her body to involuntarily lean towards Yang Hao’s side.
Another turn came, and this time, to avoid a battery car, the driver made a larger and more violent turn. Due to the powerful inertia, Wang Jingru lost her balance and fell right into Yang Hao’s arms!
“Are you okay?”
Yang Hao wrapped one arm around the slender waist of his “aunt-in-law” and lowered his head to sniff the faint scent of her hair.
“Uh, I’m fine.”
When her body tipped over, Wang Jingru instinctively reached out to grab something, and her hand landed on Yang Hao’s thigh, while the other pressed against his chest.
Her hands experienced two different sensations: one began soft before hitting something hard, while the other felt enticingly elastic from start to finish, making her reluctant to move her hand away.
However, when the hand on his thigh accidentally brushed against something it shouldn’t have, her fingers contracted slightly, and she tried to retract her hand.
But a large hand covered hers, clearly implying there was no need for her to move away…
At the same time, a deep male voice sounded near her ear: “Director Wang, you should be responsible!”
“Please reverse it!!”
“Ah??”
Wang Jingru raised her head slightly, opening her small mouth in surprise.
Reverse it??
Was he suggesting she make that enlarged thing shrink back down?
But how is one supposed to reverse that in a car???
Of course, location wasn’t the issue; the problem was that there was a driver in the car!
In such a cramped space, this was far more challenging than negotiation!
