Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

"So, the He family can only bite the bullet and carry on with these two projects." Zhou Qi continued, "Even if they lose money, it depends on how long they can hold on. They will have to endure a lot of difficulties in the process."

Du Bowen nodded in agreement: "Indeed, what the He family kid did at the auction has offended many people."

"Hahaha, He Wenliang, ah He Wenliang, I never thought that he would fall into the hands of his own son. I think he must be regretting it now."

Du Bowen laughed and said, then suddenly changed the subject and looked at his daughter, "My daughter is so considerate and smart. Alas, there is no comparison."

Du Qianqian was a little embarrassed by her father's sudden praise. She glanced at Zhou Qi secretly and said, "Dad, why are you dragging me into this again? I don't know anything about real estate. I still have to rely on Zhou Qi."

"In addition, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission is also urging us to submit the project plan as soon as possible." Du Qianqian continued: "Let me make it clear that I can still handle the bidding, but I am helpless when it comes to the project."

Speaking of the project, Du Bowen's expression also became serious. He looked at Zhou Qi and asked, "Xiao Zhou, what do you think about the project?"

Zhou** understood Du Bowen's expectations. After thinking for a moment, he said, "We must ensure that the project plan we submit can be approved in one go. In terms of building layout, we must pay attention to environmental protection and even sacrifice some area to optimize the environment.

In terms of construction, we must also strictly control the quality and ensure that every link is refined.”

Zhou Qi's words puzzled Du Bowen, but Zhou Qi then explained:

"The focus of this project is not on the 16 acres of land itself. We can sacrifice the interests of this land to a certain extent in exchange for the goodwill of the government and the reputation of the people. This is actually an opportunity to show our attitude to the government."

"If a city wants to develop rapidly, it cannot do without projects attracted by investment. Where to place them is the key to this project." Zhou Qi's words made Du Bowen suddenly enlightened. He realized that his previous vision was indeed a bit small.

"Okay, Xiao Zhou will listen to you." Du Bowen made the decision.

Du Bowen said confidently: "Don't worry about the project, everything is under control."

However, a new chapter is quietly unfolding in the blueprint of South Bank.

Zhou Qi's move is intended to focus the government's attention on this undeveloped land, accelerate its transformation, and pave the way for the implementation of several large projects, including the theme park that Hong Kong businessmen have devoted their efforts to.

Just as Zhou Qi and Du Bowen were toasting to celebrate, in a hospital ward, He Zhicheng slowly opened his eyes.

The white wall on the ceiling came into view, and the strange and cold environment instantly sobered him up.

The regular ticking of medical equipment reminded him where he was.

I tried to sit up, but felt weak all over. When I turned around, the familiar face of my father He Wenliang appeared in my sight, his eyes full of unconcealable concern.

"How does it feel?" he asked softly.

With his throat dry and chest heavy, He Zhicheng found it difficult to speak. Tears could not help but flow down his cheeks. "Dad, I was deceived by that kid Zhou Qi..." He choked up and spoke incoherently about his unwillingness and pain.

"I already know." He Wenliang said calmly, as if he had already accepted the reality.

Through the descriptions of his entourage, he had a detailed understanding of what had happened.

At first he was furious and immediately imposed severe punishment.

But when facing his son on the sickbed, the anger had long disappeared, leaving only helplessness and regret for the setbacks encountered by the younger generation in their growth.

"I won't accept this!" He Zhicheng clenched his fists and said weakly.

"You fell into his trap from the very beginning, and he took advantage of your impulse and hatred. In the final analysis, it was you who were not calm and rational enough," He Wenliang taught earnestly.

"Are we just going to let it go like this? We lost 560 million." He Zhicheng found it hard to accept the reality.

"In fact, the number is far more than that." He Wenliang sighed, "According to preliminary assessments, the direct economic losses caused by this incident amounted to at least 700 million. The family is very dissatisfied with this."

Hearing this, He Zhicheng was shocked, "Then, Dad..."

"They suggested that I step back and let your second uncle take over." He Wenliang said lightly, as if he didn't care about it.

"How could this happen..." He Zhicheng's heart sank as he realized the serious consequences of his mistake.

"Zhou Qi, I want revenge and make him pay the price no matter what." He Zhicheng swore with gritted teeth.

"Enough." He Wenliang shouted sternly, and the room fell into silence.

He Wenliang sighed softly, with a barely perceptible harshness in his tone: "If you stand still and don't work hard, I'm afraid I will be completely disappointed in you."

His voice stopped abruptly, and then became soft again, "Rest well for a few days first. After your body recovers, you have to leave for a while."

He Zhicheng's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, as if his father's words pierced his heart, "Dad, are you going to give up on me?"

"Where do you want me to go?" he asked eagerly.

"Dad, you can't do this! I can study hard, I can change myself, I..." He Zhicheng's voice began to tremble, and his emotions were almost out of control.

To him, this was nothing short of a disaster, an unbearable burden, as chilling as being exiled from his family.

He weakly supported his body and reached out to grab his father's sleeve, fearing that he would fall into the abyss in the next second.

Seeing this, He Wenliang slowly stood up and gently helped his son back to bed, then said: "Do you know why I want to fight for Nan'an at all costs?"

“Besides its long-term value, I learned something else,” he continued:

"The Li family in Hong Kong is planning to invest in the mainland, and their first choice is our province. Now the development rights of South Bank are in the hands of Du Bowen. If the Li family's investment is successful, the benefits will undoubtedly fall into his pocket."

"I have some resources in my hands. I plan to arrange for you to go to Gangcheng and let you contact the Li family in advance. In this way, once they decide to invest, we can seize the opportunity to re-intervene in the South Bank project and even use it to divert the official attention.

This will weaken the value of South Shore. We are currently at a disadvantage in the real estate sector, but as long as this move is well made, we still have a chance to turn the tide and suppress Du Bowen. ”

Faced with such an arrangement, He Zhicheng was clear in his mind: this meant that he had to put aside his dignity and curry favor with those inaccessible bigwigs. But he had no choice.
