C647 There Is a Discrepancy
As soon as he got off the airport in Shanghai, Kang Ying and Shi Jiangyuan used the new Mercedes-Benz to pick him up.
This Hilton Hotel was the earliest five-star hotel in Shanghai, located on the west side of Hua Shan Road, looking towards the "Grand Victory Lane". This is one of the few high-star hotels in the world where the price of a night's stay is equivalent to 20 months' wages for an ordinary worker.
When Qiu Shiming saw that it was the Hilton Hotel, he couldn't help but feel like he was the big boss. However, he had just taken office and hadn't made any contributions to the company yet, yet he had received such a great treatment. He said embarrassedly:
"I'm too embarrassed to order such an expensive hotel with public funds, so I just need to find a normal hotel."
Kang Ying and Shi Jiangyuan looked at each other and smiled, saying, "Since you came back on the first day, of course I will give you a welcoming party. Live better, eat better, and express our gratitude to you. "
No matter if it was eating or living, Hilton Hotel were of course top-notch. Qiu Shiming was full of confidence and high spirits, as if the Great Way of Golden Light was slowly being spread out in front of him.
During dinner, Qiu Shiming received a call from his wife that came from overseas. Of course, it was to Kang Ying's cell phone. The two of them chatted about it affectionately for a while before hanging up.
Kang Ying told Qiu Shiming to buy a cellphone when he had time, then passed the company member list to Qiu Shiming to let him know more.
Qiu Shiming slept well under the five star Hilton Hotel, and on the second day, he happily pulled his luggage along with him as he and Shi Jiangyuan and Kang Ying rode the ferry to Pudong on the other side.
The current environment of Pudong was as different as heaven and earth compared to that of Shanghai. Dust flew everywhere, and the site was in complete disarray.
Of course, for a designer like Qiu Shiming, the construction site was his battlefield.
However, when he arrived at the office space of Hua Guang Real Estate Company, Qiu Shiming's heart immediately turned cold. The office space of the Real Estate Company that was glittering like gold in his imagination shouldn't be like this!
In front of him was a four-storey building with an incomparably ugly and colorful mosaic tile on the outside. In foreign countries, this type of tile was used to stick to toilets. At home, the Chinese's current aesthetics allowed it to appear openly on the exterior wall, making it the face of a wealthy person.
If not for the "Hua Guang Real Estate Company" sign hanging in front of the door, Qiu Shiming would never have thought that this was his 20 million yuan office space.
Furthermore, this signboard was not custom-made professionally. One could see from a glance that it was handwritten, and it revealed an unconcealable shabby look.
Qiu Shiming depressingly asked Shi Jiangyuan: "Is this Huaguang Real Estate Company?"
Shi Jiangyuan calmly spread out his hands and said, "This is only a temporary office space. Now, what we want to discuss is the location and design of a 30-story building. That is our company's own building, and it is only up to you, a big designer, to implement it."
"Is this building your own investment? Are there any other investors? " Qiu Shiming asked subconsciously.
However, he felt that the question he asked was quite absurd. A 30 story building, how many billion would be required to complete it? How could it be an investment from Shi Jiangyuan himself? Even though Shi Jiangyuan had a high status, if he were to sell Shi Jiangyuan to the point where his bones were smashed, the money wouldn't even be worth this much.
"We invested it ourselves. There were no outsiders." Shi Jiangyuan said calmly.
Qiu Shiming's heart shook. He never expected Shi Jiangyuan to have this much money.
He only graduated from university and went abroad. Shi Jiangyuan stayed in China, but Shi Jiangyuan earned more money than him. It was laughable that he was still watching the world from abroad, thinking that his life would make the people in his country jealous.
Now that he thought about it, Tian Xi was the right one. His life abroad was just like boiling a frog in warm water. If he didn't die, he wouldn't be able to live for a lifetime.
Shi Jiangyuan had obtained such a great amount of money in just a few years at home. It was something he would never be able to earn in his entire life abroad.
Qiu Shiming suddenly felt that his wife's words were right to return home: the opportunities at home were much greater than those at a stagnant foreign country.
However, when Qiu Shiming saw his office building, he felt cheated by Shi Jiangyuan.
However, thinking about Shi Jiangyuan's usual behavior, he subconsciously suppressed the complaints that had rushed to his throat. He was like a greedy child, forcefully swallowing a boiling hot dumpling down his throat. It was very uncomfortable.
Shi Jiangyuan continued to excitedly describe the real estate company to him in the future to spread its wings and fly high.
Ever since Qiu Shiming went to the United States, he could be considered as someone who had met the world with a foreign body. In front of all his relatives and friends in the country, he was the target of praise.
Are foreign people drinking milk as tea every day?
Does every meal eat meat, do not want to eat food, also want to lose weight?
Does everyone abroad have a car? Do you live in a villa?
If a person with impure intentions wanted to trick him, he would definitely be able to do so at this moment, leaving his friends and relatives stunned. However, Qiu Shiming was a sincere and honest person.
But at this moment, he looked at Shi Jiangyuan's mood, just like a relative in the country, seeing a bad guy who was using his bright future to fool others.
This time, Shi Jiangyuan did not only trick him, it also seemed to ruin his future.
If it wasn't for the deep friendship they had in the past few decades, Qiu Shiming would have scolded them already. Just this crappy house, crappy office building, and what hundreds of millions of dollars of real estate companies? It was good enough not to go bankrupt for half a year.
His good education allowed Qiu Shiming to suppress the anxiety in his heart as he quietly listened to Shi Jiangyuan's so-called beautiful blueprint.
Kang Ying, on the other hand, felt that something was wrong with Qiu Shiming. His expression was ugly, as if someone had punched him in the face.
Kang Ying looked at the simple and crude conditions in front of her eyes again, and she had a rough idea in her heart.
After all, their promised stake in the president did not match up at all with the crude environment.
Their initial office conditions were indeed not that ideal. Pudong was currently being developed, and it was not easy to find suitable office space. People had to live in their own houses, and people's houses were scarce.
The owner of this house was his son, who went to Shanghai to attend high school. The family had to rent a house outside to take care of the child.
They hadn't thought of renting the entire house, but when Kang Ying learned of their situation, she told them that instead of working in Shanghai as a couple, it was better to rent the entire house to them and get enough rent to support the family's rent in Shanghai, including the cost of schooling for their children.
