222: Chapter 222 Preparing to poach talent!

If Shen Zhou's building were built on an island, specifically a private one he obtained through land reclamation...

Then he naturally wouldn't need to go through any construction formalities.

This would save him a significant amount of time compared to before.

However, after some calm reflection, he still felt quite confident.

Even if Shen Zhou was Gudisha's fiancé, the Dubai Royal Family would never personally step in to help, no matter what.

He truly didn't believe he could be bested by a guy with Chinese blood in his veins.

At this thought, Benrati immediately became smug.

"Shen Zhou, I advise you to drop your plans as soon as possible."

"You will never be able to compete with me."

"Moreover, many of the world's top designers have already been recruited by me."

"I have also already purchased many precious construction materials."

"Our Muham Family is putting the entire family's strength into building this world's tallest building."

"I really don't believe Benrati would dare to put all his cash flow into your hands."

Didara spoke with increasing smugness.

During this time, Benrati was in a fierce competition with a business rival and needed to consume a lot of capital.

Therefore, if the two families really competed, Benrati might not be able to help much financially.

And Benrati's previous promise of unlimited funds was actually just conditional.

However, hearing this, Shen Zhou couldn't help but chuckle.

With System Bro's help, he really didn't believe anyone could beat him in terms of funding.

"Alright, talk is cheap; we'll compare the results when the time comes."

"The world will judge who truly built the world's tallest building."

Shen Zhou waved his hand speechlessly; he was in no mood to continue arguing with this idiot.

Then, he prepared to leave with Orphina and Maria.

At least there was nothing left to see at this construction site; the workers here were simply wasting their lives.

Especially since many workers would insist on taking a break after working for less than an hour, resulting in zero efficiency for the entire project.

"Shen Zhou, the Muham Family is indeed not to be underestimated; they are very famous in the Arabian region."

"If we really want to compete with them, we truly need to be careful."

Orphina felt very satisfied with Shen Zhou for standing up for her just now.

But she also didn't want Shen Zhou to lose in the final competition.

Otherwise, she would also lose a lot of face.

After all, Shen Zhou had become the first male she had accepted in many years.

For a lesbian, accepting a man was very difficult; besides Shen Zhou, she likely wouldn't have a second man in her life.

Of course, whether there would be new women was another matter.

But at least before Orphina escaped Shen Zhou's honey trap, she wouldn't easily look for new female targets.

"Yes, Boss, just as I told you earlier, Didara of the Muham Family is indeed not to be underestimated."

"This kid has both ability and looks, though of course, he's not as handsome as you, Boss."

"But don't worry, Boss, I'll find someone to keep an eye on this guy twenty-four hours a day."

Maria, on the other hand, became very spirited.

Mainly because since she met Shen Zhou, she had never lost at anything.

Under the gaze of the two women, Shen Zhou smiled and explained his true source of confidence.

"You might think it's normal for workers to slack off on construction sites here, and that might even be the case across Africa and Europe."

"But in fact, if this situation occurred in our China, it would be practically a crime."

"The design blueprints go without saying, but if I'm hiring a construction team, I'll bring all the relevant personnel over from China."

"And I will hire two groups of personnel to work in three-shift rotations, twenty-four hours a day without interruption."

"As long as there's sufficient funding and the logistics and welfare support keep up, the hardworking workers from China will definitely not let us down."

Shen Zhou was quite confident about this.

After all, China's reputation as the 'Infrastructure Maniac' had long since spread throughout the world.

But often, many foreigners view the Chinese people through a negative lens.

Therefore, they simply don't believe in the strength of Chinese infrastructure.

"That's good. If there really is such a construction team, then we are indeed set."

Orphina's eyes lit up; as a professional industry designer, she knew all too well how important a qualified and dedicated construction team was.

But according to Shen Zhou, even if she brought over the construction teams she had worked with many times, they couldn't possibly compare to China's infrastructure teams.

This was determined by the different national conditions and industry situations of various countries.

"By the way, Maria, there's one more thing I need you to do."

Shen Zhou's eyes suddenly lit up as he came up with a new idea.

"Just give the word, Boss, and I'll give it my all."

Maria was also very expectant; based on her understanding of Shen Zhou's character, she had even guessed what he might ask her to do next.

"I heard Didara say that he's already invited many skyscraper design experts, right?"

"He even had the audacity to say he's invited the best designers in the world."

"In that case, we can recruit outstanding designers externally while simultaneously poaching from him."

"His is just a mere 900-meter skyscraper; how could it possibly compare to my 1,000-meter tower? I'll give you an ample budget for funding—even if we can't pull all the experts over, we must go all out to spite that guy."

If many of the experts on Didara's side joined his project because of money...

Then Shen Zhou could completely pull all those guys over using money as well.

"Okay, Boss. I've already secretly reached agreements with many private investigators; they will help us collect all relevant information with full effort."

Maria's eyes were shining; she had indeed guessed Shen Zhou's thoughts.

Beside them, Orphina also suddenly raised her hand and said:

"I can help with this too. I probably know many of the designers on their project."

"I can ask them out under the pretext of a professional discussion."

"But the rest will be up to you, Maria."

Hearing this, Maria giggled and took Orphina's arm.

"Don't worry, I'm quite good at handling things like this."

Maria recalled the process of helping Shen Zhou poach top automotive engineers before.

Her heart was full of confidence and pride.
