Chapter 98 [Building Advertisement]

Seeing Lin Jianmin being taken away by those people, Li Wendi couldn't hide the smile on his face. He knew that Lin Jianmin would not have a good end in the hands of those people and would suffer a lot of torture.

As for the police, they might send people to search symbolically, but how could those enemies hand over the person to the police? The gangsters are well aware of the principle of letting the tiger go back to the mountains.

"Lin Jianmin is dead now. If he is still protected by the police, those people probably won't take action for the time being." Zhang Yan said with a happy smile.

Ever since Guo Cuiting was hit by a car, Zhang Yan has always wanted to kill Wei Jiyuan and avenge Guo Cuiting. Later, he learned that the murderer behind the incident was Lin Jianmin, and he felt very angry. So after Lin Jianmin fell, he kept an eye on Lin Jianmin's movements and even stayed up for three days to monitor him.

Zhang Yan didn't want to use this to please Li Wendi, but Guo Cuiting had done him a favor, and Guo Cuiting was a good person, and he didn't want to see a good person have a bad ending.

He and Li Wendi were gangsters, so it would not be surprising if they died on the streets in the future. It could even be said that it was the fate they deserved.

"If you are worried, you can cooperate with those people. Anyway, everyone in Hong Kong knows that we have a grudge against Lin Jianmin, so there is no need to worry about it now." Li Wendi knew that in the future, people in Hong Kong would definitely spread the rumor that "he killed Lin Jianmin", so it seemed a bit hypocritical not to vent his anger now.

"Wendy, do you want to go too?" Zhang Yan was a little excited. Lin Jianmin was like a rat crossing the street, and it would be a waste not to beat him.

"Let's go and see what happened to our former enemies." Li Wendi said with a laugh.

On the morning of the third day, a citizen who was fishing found Lin Jianmin's body on the deserted beach and was so scared that he immediately called the police.

When the police arrived at the scene, they saw that the former senior police officer was covered in scars and was half-naked. He must have suffered inhuman abuse before his death.

Of course, reporters were indispensable for such a scene. They took 360-degree photos of Lin Jianmin's body without blind spots. A new issue of the newspaper was urgently published that afternoon, with a threatening warning from the police spokesman attached, asking people with knowledge of the incident to report it and the murderer to surrender himself in order to seek lenient treatment.

Unfortunately, such words may fool children, but it is wishful thinking to catch the murderer by such words.

However, considering the impact on the reputation of the police force, the top police officers decisively set up a special task force to investigate and arrest the murderer of Lin Jianmin.

Li Wendi was not panicked. First, he was not the one who killed Lin Jianmin. Second, everyone present was involved and it would not benefit anyone to disclose the information. Besides, the H-world in Hong Kong is now very powerful and those big guys hold the right to speak. If he disclosed the information, he would get the money but not spend it, and it might even bring trouble to his family.

Soon, Li Wendi stopped thinking about Lin Jianmin's murder case and focused his attention on the Wan Chai Building, which cost him a huge amount of money.

Today, Starlight Real Estate Company is no longer able to carry out other projects. The Wan Chai Building alone consumes a huge amount of funds of 850 million yuan. Starlight Real Estate can only rely on some property agency business to survive.

The first half of 72 is about to pass and the second half is about to come. Those listed companies will start to take the opportunity to go public and raise a large amount of funds from the stock market. The real estate market will enter a stage of rapid development.

Therefore, Li Wendi needs to sell the Wan Chai Building and get a portion of the profit, otherwise he will still be unwilling to sell it. In this way, he will lose an opportunity to make huge profits.

After a brief mental struggle, Li Wendi decided to sell the building as soon as possible to recover the funds.

Jingle Bell! !

The phone rang, shattering his thoughts. Li Wendi picked up the phone impatiently.

"Hey! What's going on?"

"Boss! There's a call from Mr. Chen Xingting looking for you. Would you like to answer the phone?" The receptionist sensed the boss's dissatisfaction and her voice softened.

Chen Xingting!? Why is that guy looking for me? We don't seem to know each other.

Li Wendi didn't know why Chen Xingting was looking for him. According to common sense, they were enemies.

"Please bring it in!"

Ten seconds later, the call was connected to Chen Xingting.

"Hey! Mr. Chen, right? I wonder what you want to talk to me about?" Li Wendi spoke in a teasing tone.

"No big deal, I just want to invite you out for afternoon tea. Is Mr. Li free?"

Li Wendi thought about it again and again, and felt that Chen Xingting couldn't play any tricks. Maybe it was a good thing, and it wouldn't be a loss to go there.

"Okay!" Chen Xingting told the meeting place and hung up the phone.

A teahouse in Central

When Chen Xingting saw Li Wendi, he simply exchanged greetings and then told her the purpose of his trip.

"Mr. Li, I know that the Wan Chai building accounts for all your funds, of which 400 million was obtained through stock pledge loans. The rent of the Wan Chai building is not enough to pay the interest on the loan. Although the land price is rising, it is too dangerous for you." Chen Xingting did not care about Li Wendi's expression at all, and kept talking to himself, "Why not sell this building as soon as possible and use the funds to do something else."

"Oh? Mr. Chen, do you want to take over this building? What price do you offer?" Li Wendi knew that one should not act on impulse when doing business, otherwise, even the best business would turn into a disaster.

"800 million, how about it?" Chen Xingting said seriously.

Li Wendi sneered and said, "Mr. Chen, how come you're drunk without drinking? I just bought this building for 850 million, and you actually want to take it away for 800 million. Do you think I'm an employee of your Chen family?"

Hearing this, Chen Xingting's face changed slightly, and he said in a cold voice, "That is an old building. 800 million is already a premium. The price will increase after a while, but isn't Mr. Li in a hurry to sell it? Naturally, there is no original price."

"In that case, there is nothing to talk about." Li Wendi said with a straight face.

Seeing that Li Wendi's attitude was very tough, Chen Xingting hesitated and took a step back, saying, "The building we just bought really shouldn't suffer a loss. I can buy it at the original price."

Li Wendi thought Chen Xingting was good at business negotiations, but he turned out to be an arrogant guy who thought of himself as the male protagonist in the movie and treated everyone else as fools.

"I still have some things to take care of, so I won't drink tea with Master Chen."

Li Wendi felt that if he stayed any longer, he would be infected by Chen Xingting's stupid arrogance.

Chen Xingting did not try to keep Li Wendi. He did not want to negotiate with Li Wendi in the first place. It was all because of his father Chen Fenben's order. Moreover, the reserve price was 850 million, which he had already given, but Li Wendi was unwilling to do so.

After all, he regarded this matter as a task, and he could report to Chen Fenben whether he completed it or not.

After leaving the teahouse, Li Wendi was still thinking about the sale of the Wan Chai Building. He had to find a way to sell the building at a high price to get rid of the tight financial situation.

"Yuanfeng Bank is the Chen family's pawn, so let's start with it." Li Wendi finally came up with a solution. It might not be the best solution, but it can increase the visibility of the building in his hands and perhaps attract some buyers.

So, Li Wendi drove to Yuanhe Newspaper Office.

Inside He Qijun's office
Li Wendi was the first to greet, "Ms. He, good afternoon!"

"Mr. Li, good afternoon!" He Qijun responded.

Li Wendi said bluntly, "This time, I need Miss He's help. Please take a look at this first."

He handed over a contract and continued, "My purpose is very simple, which is to use Yuanfeng Bank to hype up a Wan Chai building that I currently own."

He Qijun was indeed a top student at Hong Kong University. She finished reading the contract of more than ten pages in a few minutes and said to Li Wendi thoughtfully, "Mr. Li, Yuanhe Newspaper does not do economic and legal news. I am afraid we can't help you in this regard."

"Haha! How can I not help? Can you try another way?" Li Wendi had already thought about it before coming. "Just tell it in an advertising way and write down some of the terms of the contract. No need to interpret it."

"Ms. He, we also have a contract. Yuanhe Newspaper will not deny its obligations, right? They will not reject the client's request without reason, right?"

He Qijun was a little embarrassed and said, "Since it is an advertisement, we can follow the rules of our newspaper. Of course, we will also consider your request, Mr. Li."

Li Wendi didn't really trust He Qijun, so he said, "Okay, but this time I hope I can take a look at the manuscript before publishing it. If it's not suitable, you can revise it in time."

He Qijun knew that Li Wendi would not give up until he achieved his goal, so she could only nod and say, "Okay, I'll call you, Mr. Li, when the time comes."

Li Wendi chatted with He Qijun for a few minutes and talked about Zhao Wanying's plan to publish a legal newspaper at Yuanhe Newspaper to enhance the legal awareness of Hong Kong citizens. This made Li Wendi somewhat excited, after all, he had several classic magazine templates in his mind.
