After hearing this, He Zhicheng barely suppressed his inner impulse, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down.

Zhou Qi didn't seem surprised by such a reaction. Instead, he showed a hint of regret.

If a physical conflict had really occurred just now, Zhou Qi would have been prepared. He would neither fight back nor let himself get hurt; however, the other party would definitely pay a heavy price for it.

Through this failed confrontation, He Zhicheng had already lost the initiative. In this land grab battle that had not yet officially begun, the psychological battle had already quietly tilted the balance of victory and defeat.

The information has been prepared, and the crisp voice of the female staff came from the window: "This is your bidding number. Before the auction begins, please remit a deposit of no less than 50 million to the designated account. Only then can you officially obtain the qualification to bid."

"Okay, thank you very much." Zhou Qi took the information and handed it to Du Qianqian beside him.

He didn't even glance at He Zhicheng again, but just patted Jiang Jun on the shoulder and walked out the door with his team.

He Zhicheng stood there quietly, his eyes as sharp as knives, and his chillness remained unabated.

As soon as she left the gate of the SASAC, Lin Ruixue's face turned gloomy. She pursed her lips tightly, and only after she got into the car did she couldn't help but ask, "What happened to that person just now?"

Before Zhou Qi could answer, Du Qianqian explained: "Ruixue, don't get me wrong, this is actually because of me..."

Then, she briefly recounted what happened at the charity auction, taking all the responsibility on herself and saying that it was because of her that Zhou Qi and He Zhicheng had a grudge against each other.

After hearing these words, Lin Ruixue's mood obviously improved a little.

Zhou Qi added with a smile: "Even if there was no auction, He Zhicheng would find opportunities to cause trouble for me. Because behind this, there is also a commercial competition between Huaning Group and us."

After understanding the whole story, Lin Ruixue's expression relaxed a lot.

Du Qianqian glanced at Lin Ruixue and said to Zhou Qi half-jokingly, "Are you willing to be a gigolo? Aren't you afraid of people talking about you?"

Zhou Qi smiled slightly: "This can actually help to conceal our tracks."

Du Qianqian glared at him and said jokingly, "You are using me as a shield! I knew that you would never be willing to suffer a loss."

"But I'm afraid this alone is not enough to deal with this auction, right?" She continued, "There are many people participating, especially the He family, who seem determined to fight us to the end. This will greatly increase our costs. Do you have any countermeasures?"

Zhou Qi pondered for a moment and slowly replied: "There are not many direct ways. Public bidding mainly depends on financial resources. However, the participation of the He family is also a double-edged sword for us. We can use them to make the situation more complicated.

After all, this auction is not just for the land on the South Bank, there are other interests involved.”

Lin Ruixue was a little confused, but Du Qianqian immediately understood Zhou Qi's intention: "Are you planning to recreate the scene at the charity auction? But He Zhicheng has already suffered a loss once, so he will definitely be more careful this time. Will your plan still work?"

As soon as the words fell, Du Qianqian suddenly realized: "I understand, no wonder you said so much today, it turns out that you are planning for the auction, wanting to provoke He Zhicheng's anger so that he will lose his cool. You are such a cunning guy."

Zhou Qi smiled lightly and said calmly: "This matter has nothing to do with me. It depends on whether he can keep his mind steady."

Du Qianqian's eyes flashed with a playful light, and she smiled at Zhou Qi, "If that's the case, in my opinion, it would be more lethal if you save your words today for the day of the auction. There are still two days before the official auction, which is enough time for him to calm down."

Lin Ruixue nodded thoughtfully, then interrupted and said, "I don't think so. That person has a hot temper. We just need to tease him a little bit at that time."

"For example... we can act more intimate then," she added.

"Be closer?" Zhou Qi and Du Qianqian were both stunned. They obviously did not expect Lin Ruixue to make such a suggestion, but they soon understood what she meant.

Du Qianqian looked at the two of them with interest and teased, "You won't be jealous, right?"

Lin Ruixue shook her head casually, "Business is like a battlefield. Once you are on the battlefield, you have to use the most effective tactics. It's not real, so why be jealous?"

Du Qianqian smiled and said, "If that's the case, then I won't refuse. This guy is lucky."

At this time, Lin Ruixue turned to look at Jiang Jun, with a trace of worry in her eyes, "Jun, you don't mind, do you?"

The car instantly fell into a subtle silence. Zhou Qi smiled and said nothing, while Du Qianqian looked confused.

Jiang Jun blushed slightly and whispered, "I don't mind."

Sensing this strange atmosphere, Lin Ruixue looked at Zhou Qi and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Zhou Qi replied jokingly: "I just think that for this piece of land, you are willing to sacrifice even your husband."

Lin Ruixue hurriedly clarified: "That's not what I meant."

.........

In the He family mansion, He Zhicheng went straight to his father's study as soon as he returned from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission:

"Dad, I ran into Zhou Qi and Du Qianqian when I was going through the paperwork. Hualong Teng'ao's registered capital is as high as 700 million. I think the funds they have prepared must be more than that, and their target may not only be the land on the south bank."

He Zhicheng's true intention is obvious, he wants his father to provide more financial support.

He Wenliang slowly drank a sip of tea and said calmly: "Even though Hualong Teng'ao has over 700 million capital, the situation is different now. The competition between Hualong and Xilin is fierce, and opening 96 stores in a row is a huge expense."

After hearing this, He Zhicheng eagerly retorted: "Dad, we can't underestimate our opponents. I think Hualong Teng'ao's goal may not be limited to Nan'an, but more likely to be a commercial renovation project among the three plots of land.

The South Bank area is relatively backward and has limited development potential; once the commercial transformation is completed, the cost can be recovered quickly with the support of the government. Considering that Hualong Electric has already cooperated with Tengao Shipping, it is very likely that it is aiming in this direction. "

A total of three plots of land will be for sale at this auction.

The land on the south bank and its overall development rights, the construction of the East City shopping mall cluster, and the transformation of the shantytowns in the north are like three important pieces on a chess game.

Among them, the transformation of shantytowns is like a tough nut to crack, as it involves the relocation and compensation of a large number of residents, has heavy financial costs and meager profits.

The land on the south bank is like a sleeping gem. Although it is located in a remote area, it has endless possibilities.
