331: Two billion

Qian Ziyong left.

Pang Chengye immediately began directing the workers and contacting other construction companies to send people over.

Pang Chengye called Jin Hongda.

Jin Hongda was one of the shareholders of Feihuang Plaza and had always been in the building materials business.

Since Feihuang Plaza needed building materials, it was natural to contact him.

"What? Ziyong wants to finish building all eight floors of the mall within three months?" Jin Hongda exclaimed.

Pang Chengye nodded: "Yes, President Qian has already deposited two billion yuan into the account, telling me to spare no expense and build the mall as quickly as possible within three months."

Jin Hongda pondered for a moment, then said: "To build it in three months, both concrete and cement need to be fast-drying!"

"This will significantly increase the cost."

Pang Chengye said: "President Qian said money is not an issue."

Jin Hongda said: "Ziyong always acts decisively. Since that's the case, I'll handle the building materials!"

"You can build with confidence; I won't let building materials hold you back!"

"In Shen City, there will be no situation where money is in place but materials are not."

"Ziyong alone put out 2.6 billion, and the rest of us can also come up with the remaining 2.6 billion in the shortest time!"

"That way, there will be over five billion piled up in the account."

In Shen City, the biggest problem was money.

If money was not an issue, then nothing else was a problem.

Originally, Jin Hongda thought that Qian Ziyong would apply for a bank loan after buying the land.

If he applied for a bank loan, it would require bank approval, which would take some time.

But with the money directly in the account, to be spent and built without restraint, the speed could be as fast as possible.

After discussing some more details with Pang Chengye, Jin Hongda immediately called Chen Jingfu and the others.

Soon, a video conference began.

Chen Jingfu, Sun Youan, Zhao Kaixuan, Tang Lezhan, Qu Yuanliang, plus himself, a total of six people.

Jin Hongda spoke first: "Ziyong has already invested 2.67 billion, and I just checked the account; the money has arrived!"

"How much equity do you plan to take this time?"

"Ziyong intends to build Feihuang Plaza regardless of cost, so the construction cost has increased significantly."

"Therefore, building Feihuang Plaza this time might very well result in a loss."

Hearing Jin Hongda's words, Zhao Kaixuan said: "Hongda, you fat slob, you're so scheming!"

"If you don't want to invest, tell me and give your share to me!"

"The five billion in my bank account is already itching to be invested!"

Sun Youan also eagerly chimed in: "If Jin Hongda doesn't invest, I will! Give his share to me!"

Several people were vying for Jin Hongda's investment share.

Jin Hongda immediately grew anxious: "Don't, guys!"

"I just said the risk is high, not that I'm not investing!"

Zhao Kaixuan scoffed: "Aren't you just trying to scare us so you can invest more yourself?"

"Brother, I talk about feelings with you, but you play mind games with me. Brother, you've changed."

Chen Jingfu decisively stated: "Alright, enough with the nonsense. This time, we'll take 50% of the shares, just like last time."

"If anyone doesn't have that much money or doesn't want that many shares, they can give their shares to me!"

Zhao Kaixuan eagerly interjected: "Give them to me!"

"Please, everyone, help me out; the five billion in my bank card truly has nowhere to be invested!"

"You're not unaware that the economy is very sluggish right now, and money can't be invested anywhere!"

"We can't just let it sit in the bank card collecting interest, can we?"

Sun Youan waved his hand: "Alright, stop thinking about all this nonsense!"

"Ziyong has already transferred the money to the account, and he's in Shen City right now, so let's hurry over to sign the shareholder agreement!"

"Besides investing money, we also need to leverage our connections and abilities."

"Jin Hongda, speed up the delivery of building materials; don't let the construction site wait. Also, give us a lower price, at least lower than the market price, and even lower than the price you usually give others!"

"Tang Lezhan, prepare the online promotions for Feihuang Plaza, do the preliminary work, so that when Feihuang Plaza opens, the entire Shen City will know about it."

"Qu Yuanliang, go pull some strings and have the higher-ups inspect our project to ensure all aspects are up to standard. Ziyong won't cut corners in this regard, and neither do we need to."

"But don't let the various approval documents get stuck!"

"Zhao Kaixuan, you handle other aspects, such as fire safety and contacting all your cronies."

Zhao Kaixuan knew many second-generation heirs in Shen City.

Zhao Kaixuan patted his chest and guaranteed: "Don't worry, with me on the job, there won't be any problems."

The others also guaranteed that the matters they were responsible for would absolutely not have any issues.

Their investment was not just about providing money; it was about helping the project in various ways.

Investment nowadays was like that; it wasn't just about putting in money. If you didn't have some capability and couldn't help the project, you weren't qualified to participate.

...

In a deep mountain, surrounded by training troops, there was a research institute at their center.

Dozens of old experts were inside, researching fast-drying cement from various angles.

A white-haired old man held various test reports in his hand.

Although he was old, his eyes were bright and full of spirit.

Looking at the test reports, the old man's smile grew wider and wider: "Excellent, this fast-drying cement is very good!"

"It can greatly reduce infrastructure costs, and it can play a huge role in both military and civilian applications!"

Some things aren't necessarily good because they are too outstanding.

The most important thing is universality!

Take cement, for example.

There are countless materials stronger than cement and concrete.

Not to mention graphene and the like, even steel is dozens of times stronger than cement and concrete.

But why is it that cement and concrete are still used on a large scale?

It's because these two materials are cheap.

Similarly, there are countless materials better than plastic, and some even invented paper bags, where paper could replace plastic.

But why, despite knowing that plastic is not environmentally friendly, can it not be completely eliminated?

It's still due to cost.

Fast-drying cement is three times stronger than other ordinary cement, but its cost has not increased much.

It can completely replace other cements!

Whether it's for road construction or the stone foundations of high-speed railways, countless tons of cement are used.

Being able to save one yuan per ton is a significant saving.

What's more, it saves far more than just that!

This fast-drying cement is of great significance!

If it had been invented years ago, the country's infrastructure speed could have been much faster.

"Which old expert invented this?" the old man asked happily.

A middle-aged man in a Chinese tunic suit (Chinese tunic suit) stood up straight and said: "It wasn't invented by an expert."

"It was invented by a private enterprise called Feihuang Group."

"Hmm?" The old man was a little surprised and said, "Give me the information on Feihuang Group!"

Soon, the middle-aged man handed over the already prepared information.
