Chapter 816: Chapter 809: Multiple Weights

"That... are we really going to do a City Complex project? I’m worried... worried that I don’t have enough experience..."

Zhang Xiaoxi said hesitantly, appearing somewhat lacking in confidence.

Wang Ye waved his hand casually and said, "It’s the first project, think of it as practice, don’t be under any pressure. Consider this project an opportunity to learn and to build up the team. Since it’s a big project, naturally, we will need plenty of manpower, which gives you the chance to recruit more industry elites and expand the team’s size!"

Nalan Yaqi, standing by, felt a twinge of jealousy.

A project worth several billions, just for Zhang Xiaoxi to cut her teeth on?!

Why her!?

So much money spent on her could be better spent on oneself...

Of course, she only grumbled about it in her mind and didn’t dare to speak up.

Not that Nalan Yaqi was foolish; having worked with Wang Ye for so long, she naturally knew that Wang Ye had his reasons for doing things.

It was normal for her not to understand; if she did, wouldn’t she be in Wang Ye’s position by now?

......

Upon hearing what Wang Ye said, Zhang Xiaoxi felt a surge of emotion, her eyes slightly moist.

If it weren’t for the two people sitting next to her, she didn’t know what she might have blurted out...

Entrusted with tens or even hundreds of billions of funds, Wang Ye actually told her to take it as practice and not to feel pressured.

That meant he didn’t care about the profits or losses!

Truth be told, not even if Wang Ye were just an old classmate or her boss, but even her own father might not be able to do this!

For a moment, Zhang Xiaoxi wondered if Wang Ye had some "intentions" towards her – could this old classmate be secretly in love with her?

But she immediately dismissed this conjecture.

Joking aside, given Wang Ye’s current wealth and status, what kind of girl hasn’t he seen?

Not to mention, the woman currently glued to his side, Nalan Yaqi, was already more attractive than herself.

Although Wang Ye had introduced Nalan Yaqi merely as his friend, Zhang Xiaoxi wasn’t blind; from the way Nalan Yaqi clung to Wang Ye, she guessed there was more to their relationship...

Probably she was just one of Wang Ye’s many "girlfriends", and who knows how many stunning beauties were vying for his attention in Moscow!

Zhang Xiaoxi thought somewhat sadly.

After a while, she finally spoke up, "Thank you... boss, for your trust in me; I will do my utmost to ensure every penny invested by the company gets a sufficient return!"

Wang Ye nodded with satisfaction, as he had never doubted Zhang Xiaoxi’s capabilities.

Though he had put her in a "giant" role that was perhaps a bit too much for her at the moment, Wang Ye believed that Zhang Xiaoxi would soon adapt to the role and repay his faith with outstanding performance.

Of course, even if Zhang Xiaoxi really messed up this investment, it wouldn’t bother Wang Ye.

At worst, he would have Zhang Xiaoxi stay peacefully as his "major domo" back home, investing in more stable projects, and safeguarding his "private money."

......

"If we’re doing a City Complex, do we have any suitable targets in mind?" Wang Ye casually asked.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Xiaoxi replied decisively:

"Yes!

In recent months, we’ve also conducted thorough market research. There was one project that all our colleagues were optimistic about, but it was shelved because the investment was too substantial.

Now that you, boss, have decided to increase investment, we can seriously consider it.

This project is called Xidan MALL, located in the core area of the Xidan business district. Currently, the project holder is MCC Group.

To speak of it, this project changed hands last year, acquired by MCC Group from a real estate development company for two billion.

After taking over, however, due to the project’s massive scale and MCC Group investing in other core projects this year, the development of Xidan MALL stalled again, reportedly due to a funding shortfall..."

Zhang Xiaoxi extensively briefed Wang Ye on the project called "Xidan MALL."

Wang Ye listened and felt it sounded somewhat familiar.

Having visited the capital several times in his previous life, he was familiar with the Xidan area, but couldn’t recall something called "Xidan MALL."

However, when he heard Zhang Xiaoxi’s final comment that COFCO Group was currently negotiating with MCC Group to acquire the project, Wang Ye suddenly realized what this project was.

This was none other than the very famous Joy City in Xidan from his past life...

It seemed Zhang Xiaoxi and her company colleagues had a keen eye, spotting a project with enormous potential right away!

It had to be said, their choice was very appropriate.

The Xidan business district is one of the three major business districts in the capital, even possibly the busiest!

And this district still lacked a large shopping center; if the Joy City project took off, it would capture a first-mover advantage, and business was sure to be good.

Moreover, the project was neither too big nor too small, given it was in a core business district with limited land space.

Thus, the plan included only one Large Shopping Center and two auxiliary buildings.

Those two annexes, one was a high-end office building, and the other a high-grade Serviced Apartment, which at the time were considered "scarce" resources.

Soon, even just the rental income would amount to a considerable yearly revenue!
