Reborn since 2005

Chapter 779 Listing Plan
A few days before the Spring Festival, I was as busy as in previous years, visiting relatives and checking in like a check-in.

However, despite being busy, Yan Xin still feels a sense of accomplishment.

When he walked on the road, the villagers would greet him warmly and in a very friendly manner when they saw him.

His relationship with his relatives was not very good at one time, but now those relatives have shown their affectionate side to him.

The conditions of some of his relatives were indeed not that good, so he took the opportunity of the New Year to give them some support.

Not to mention the gifts, the red envelopes given to every poor relative are very generous.

It is not enough for them to live on this red envelope for a year, but at least it can make their life in the countryside not too difficult.

——He never thought about supporting all those relatives.

People also have self-respect.

He himself doesn't want to raise a waste.

——That’s not helping people, that’s destroying their family.

I spent the first few days visiting new year greetings everywhere, and only returned home on the fifth day. There was nothing else to do at home but play cards for several days.

During this period, Feng Chen also brought his wife and children to visit, and they also played cards and chatted.

Xiao Shiyu also came over from behind.

Six young people can form two tables to play Landlord.

At this time, Xiao Yin was celebrating the Spring Festival in her hometown, Shu Yi was traveling with her son, daughter and Ai Lili, and Gu Ru celebrated the New Year in her hometown, and then took her son to Guangdong Province to reunite with Shu Yi and Ai Lili.

Yan Xin is not that leisurely.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, I attended several New Year tea parties.

Some are organized by counties, some by cities, and some by provinces.

There are tea parties held by the Entrepreneurs Association and tea parties held by the CPPCC.

He also paid his respects to some old comrades and donated several million yuan to several welfare homes.

In addition, he spent several million to sponsor a senior calligraphy competition, a senior photography competition and a senior fishing competition.

By the way, I also visited several projects of Green Origin Company.

From the eighth to the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, I was basically busy for seven days. It was more tiring than working outside, and I didn't spend half of the time at home.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I had a day off. I celebrated the festival happily with my family, and then set off the last fireworks at home.

On the 16th day of the first lunar month, I left my hometown.

This time, he did not go to the capital with Feng Xi, but took her to Guangzhou first.

He did not return to his own home, but took his wife, children and Xiao Shiyu to visit Cai Qixiang directly at Cai's house.

Because at this time, Ai Lili and Shu Yi had already finished their Spring Festival trip. Shu Yi was preparing to fly back to Europe with her daughter. On the last day, she would return her son to Cai Qixiang and would stay at Cai's house for one night.

If Yan Xin and the others go there at this time, they can still meet them.

It's a bit regrettable that I haven't seen him even once after returning to my country for such a long time.

Moreover, Yan Xin also wanted to see what attitude Xiao Mango had towards his younger brother Cai Kun.

If his attitude is good, he will definitely support this girl in the future and can also become Cai Kun's helper in the future.

If she has a bad attitude, distances herself from him, or even hates him, then Yan Xin will need to be wary of whether this girl will compete with his illegitimate son for the Cai family's property when she grows up, which would be detrimental to his son.

Cai Qixiang didn't know about the affair between Yan Xin and his daughter-in-law. When he saw the whole family coming to visit, he just thought that this was Yan Xin's respect for him as an elder, and he was very happy.

The death of his son dealt him a great blow and made him look much older.

Although it has adjusted a bit later, he still looks older than his actual age.

He is not even seventy years old, but he looks like a man in his seventies or eighties.

There are a lot of age spots on my face and my hair has turned completely white.

In his previous life, when Yan Xin last saw him, he looked much younger and could have no problem working as chairman for another ten years.

He is not doing well now, and he might be gone one day.

Cai Qixiang himself probably understood this point - he might not be able to live to see his grandson grow up.

There is still some fear in my heart.

It’s not the fear of death, but the fear that my grandchildren will be bullied after I leave this world.

The only ones he could count on were his illegitimate daughter, Ai Lili, and Yan Xin, his cheap son-in-law and godfather of his grandson.

If it were ten years ago, he would never have placed his hopes on any outsider.

There is no way out now. I really can’t find anyone I can trust in such a short time.

There are a few people in the Cai family whom he trusts and who will unconditionally support his grandson.

Unfortunately, those people do not have enough ability. When their abilities are so low, no matter how high their loyalty is, it is meaningless and they cannot defeat those cunning people at all.

He placed all his hopes on Yan Xin and Ai Lili.

Don't say that he didn't know about the affair between Yan Xin and Shu Yi. Even if he knew, as long as he didn't suspect that his grandson was also Yan Xin's and had no blood relationship with his Cai family, he would pretend not to know.

I can't afford to lose anymore.

Yan Xin was also able to control his emotions, and in front of Cai Qixiang, he did not show any ambiguous attitude towards Shu Yi.

Shu Yi certainly did not show any ambiguous attitude.

——She was very afraid of Cai Qixiang. In front of him, she had no messy thoughts at all. She just wanted time to pass quickly and leave this hellhole as soon as possible.

She felt guilty and always thought that Cai Qixiang wanted to take revenge on her. She didn't dare to stay here alone.

That is to say, since he was accompanied by Ai Lili and Gu Ru, and knew that Yan Xin and others would come, and thought that Cai Qixiang would not dare to do anything at this time, he agreed to stay here for one day and spend more time with his son.

Yan Xin also carefully observed how Xiao Mango and Cai Kun got along and found that the siblings got along pretty well and the kind of thing he was worried about did not happen.

They are still children and don't know how to hide their emotions. If they really have any bad intentions, he believes that he will be able to see it after living two lives.

Now he sees the brother and sister getting along harmoniously, and this scene makes him feel relieved.

No matter what, these two siblings were born to the same mother and are blood-related siblings.

It's normal to have a harmonious relationship.

He also hopes that Shuyi can bring her daughter back home every holiday so that the relationship between the siblings can become deeper.

In private, when chatting with Cai Qixiang, he also mentioned this incident, pointing to the brother and sister playing in the yard and said to Cai Qixiang:
"It seems like they have a good relationship. When Little Mango succeeds in his studies, maybe he can help Little Kun."

Cai Qixiang snorted and said, "A girl is studying abroad and learning foreign things. How can she help him? It's good enough if she doesn't hold him back."

People of his generation have a particularly serious tendency to favor boys over girls.

What's more, he is a native of Guangdong Province with a strong clan consciousness.

The four words "preferring sons to daughters" are ingrained into our bones.

He did not regard his illegitimate daughter, Ai Lili, as his own family, nor did he regard his granddaughter, Xiao Mango, as his own family. In his opinion, they were all other people's family members.

At first, Cai Yue was unwilling to have more children. He even thought about finding a more capable child in the clan to adopt and inherit his family property.

If it weren't for this reason, Cai Yue would not have accepted that Shu Yi cheated on him and got pregnant with another man's child.

——Compared to that little green hat, being able to inherit billions of assets is obviously more important.

At that time, Cai Qixiang neither considered his illegitimate daughter who had already shown certain business talents in Yan Xin's company, nor did he consider his granddaughter Xiao Mango.

Now that I have grandchildren, of course I won’t consider them anymore.

He didn't even want Little Mango to have any strong abilities.

He was worried that his granddaughter was too capable and would compete with his grandson for the family property, and then take the Cai family's property to someone else's home.

Yan Xin was clearly praising his granddaughter, but he sounded a little unhappy.

In other words, Yan Xin holds a special position in his mind. If someone else says something like this, he will get angry on the spot.

Yan Xin also understood what he meant, smiled, and said nothing more, changing the subject.

Now Fengxiang Real Estate Group is developing quite rapidly. Many completed projects have been put on the market for sale and have achieved very good sales results.

All loans that were due were repaid in a timely manner and the business credit is very good.

The company's scale has continued to grow, it has developed rapidly in many cities, and has acquired a lot of land.

Not to mention how much money they can make after building the house, just by selling the land they have, they can make a lot of money.

The amount of loans the group now owes is a terrifying number, but the assets they own are even greater.

The debt ratio is within a relatively safe range.

They had previously hired an overseas team to operate the listing. According to information from Cai Qixiang, the company could be listed on Hong Kong Island as early as June this year.

The financing scale may reach hundreds of billions.

If it can successfully go public and achieve its goals, Fengxiang Real Estate Group will receive a large amount of capital injection, becoming a leading domestic real estate company and taking its development to the next level.

It will also create a new group of billionaires.

When Yan Xin heard about the listing, he did not show much joy. Instead, he frowned and asked Cai Qixiang:

"Uncle, how long do you think this wave of real estate market will last?"

"Didn't you say that there will be at least ten years of market opportunities? I believe in your judgment." Cai Qixiang said with a smile.

Yan Xin reminded him: "I said that in 08, and now it has been more than four years."

"That means we still have more than five years left, right?" Cai Qixiang said. "With that much time, we can use this round of financing to expand our business, which is enough for us to make a lot of money."

"What about five years from now?" Yan Xin asked, "The real estate industry will enter a cold winter by then, and our company will have grown quite large due to rapid expansion. What should we do then? If we continue to develop in real estate, we may lose money on every property we develop. If we reduce investment, or even stop investing in real estate, what will happen to all those employees? If the company has no business, how can we explain to the shareholders?"

Cai Qixiang looked at him, somewhat surprised:
“Do you mean that the next wave of real estate winter will be long?”

Yan Xin nodded and said seriously:
"Yes, I think so. I think the real estate industry will experience a long winter in the next few years."

Cai Qixiang's expression changed.

He has been in the real estate industry for more than a dozen years and has seen many ups and downs, including several so-called cold winters.

But each cold winter period will not last long, at most it will be about a year or so. Be cautious when investing during this period, and you will get through it if you can hold on.

Difficulties are difficulties, but we just need to tighten our belts and get through them. It doesn't have to get to the point of laying off employees.

But now from what Yan Xin said, the next wave of real estate winter may be very severe and last for a long time, otherwise there would be no need to lay off employees.

He didn't really believe in such a judgment.

He believes that this wave of real estate market will definitely not continue forever, that would be too unreasonable.

There will always be a callback.

But the callback time will not be too long.

After all, the country is now in a period of growth, the economic situation is getting better and better, people have more and more money in their pockets, and the demand for houses will naturally increase.

There may be occasional declines, but they will rebound soon, and the overall trend will still be upward.

If others said so, he would not take it seriously.

But Yan Xin’s previous predictions about the economy and real estate were very accurate. Now that he predicts that the real estate market will experience a long winter, it is difficult for him to take it lightly.

After a while, he asked Yan Xin:
"So what are you going to do?"

"There is still a market trend now. We need to make the money. We should take as many projects as we can. We don't have to worry about taking on debts. We can make it back."

Yan Xin expressed his own opinion.
"But my suggestion is that such investment should be stopped in two years. We must ensure that all projects are developed and sold before 2019, and then prepare for the winter."

"After 15 years, you will no longer invest in any new projects?" Cai Qixiang asked.

"To be precise, we will no longer invest in any new real estate projects. By 2019, the real estate sector can basically be shut down. If necessary, we can even eliminate the real estate sector," said Yan Xin.

"Then how do we explain to the shareholders? How do we deal with those employees?" Cai Qixiang asked.

If a listed real estate company suddenly stops engaging in real estate, it means it has no business.

It is indeed difficult to explain to shareholders.

Yan Xin said: "So my suggestion is not to focus all business on real estate. We need to have other businesses and transform ourselves so that we can minimize the losses when the real estate winter comes."

Cai Qixiang was shocked: "How to transform?"

He knew that when Yan Xin said this, he should have had a corresponding plan.

He also always felt that putting all his business into the real estate industry was a bit too risky.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

When he made friends with Yan Xin, wasn't it because he was impressed by this young man's ability in the Internet economy and wanted to work with him to transform his company?

Yan Xin did not disappoint him and expressed his thoughts:

"My idea is that our Fengxiang Group can merge with Anye Group and go public. Anye Group is not only a leading company in interior decoration, but also involved in the production and sales of decoration materials. Moreover, it has entered the Internet industry. The Anye app they launched has been downloaded over 100 million times, and it has occupied a monopoly position in the relevant domestic industry. A packaged listing can effectively share the risks of Fengxiang Group and increase the company's valuation."
