Chapter 705: Chapter 706 The Real Heiress Does Not Return to Her Place 38_1

The other party had prepared for a poor relationship between Zhang Li and Wei Xudong, but they hadn’t anticipated that their relationship would indeed be very bad.

She didn’t even call him Dad, she directly referred to him as Mr. Wei Yan.

Of course, they were even less prepared for the fact that the other side would actually consider her more capable than Wei Yan, "Not at all, it’s just encountering some issues."

"As for Wei Xudong, unless he faces a major crisis, his character is one of supreme arrogance."

"Joining Wei Company, unless he starts from the grassroots, he won’t be your match."

"Alright, let’s stop talking about them and discuss official business," Zhang Li didn’t want to waste precious time on Wei Yan and his son.

The other party, seeing how swiftly Zhang Li entered work mode, also quickly got into the groove, and presented the plan they had discussed beforehand.

Zhang Li quickly glanced over it and said, "Your plan doesn’t align with my interests." If they went with their idea, it meant that all significant control of the company would be in their hands.

"Our two families establish a company to jointly develop three plots of land," Wei’s CEO thought this proposal was good and even offered Zhang Li an overpriced share of stocks.

"Indeed, the shares you’re offering exceed the land value."

"I also believe that cooperating with Wei’s is a decent proposal."

The other side knew the words Zhang Li had said were not the main point, the words that followed were the key content.

"You are now Wei’s CEO and have control of the big picture."

"But can you guarantee that Mr. Wei Yan will truly retire?"

"Wei’s flourished under his leadership, and he’s just in his 50s now. Many business magnates are still working; can he truly be content with retirement?"

"Even if he wants to retire, would his son be willing to?"

"Once they take over Wei’s, will the company operations and its subsidiaries operate the same as before?"

"You should also know my relationship with the Wei Family; we are but strangers with a blood connection."

"Mr. Wei Yan approached me in the beginning, hoping I would invest money to support Wei Xudong, which I did not agree to."

"I proposed that either he gives me the land and I pay the market price, or he goes to sell the assets cheaply."

Zhang Li very straightforwardly informed the other party how she came to own this plot of land.

"He suggested I personally purchase the land, but I decided to buy it through establishing a company."

"Previously, President Wei also mentioned the possibility of developing it together with Wei’s, which I did not agree to. I even said that I would develop the land myself," she declared.

The representatives from Wei Company suddenly realized, all of Zhang Li’s defenses against Wei Company were based on her relationship with Wei Yan and his son.

"So, what do you think?" the other side knew that the possibility of a joint development was gone and couldn’t help but feel dejected. What now?

Couldn’t other companies offer the same conditions they could?

With the land changing hands and Zhang Li’s poor relations with Wei’s, the news of her seeking collaboration would spread fast, and it wouldn’t take long for others to come knocking on her door.

"I only have this one piece of land out of the several I’m currently handling," Zhang Li took out her draft agreement, "You can take a look."

"If there are no issues, let’s discuss based on this plan."

All these plots were promising, but Zhang Li knew her limitations; to develop them all by herself would truly be just a dream.

After the other party reviewed Zhang Li’s proposal, their initial reaction was disagreement.

Even though the residential market will definitely have strong demand in the future, the office space market is no small matter either.

However, the proposal provided by Zhang Li was to give up on the residential market and go straight into the office market.

What now? Wei’s CEO also felt the situation was tricky; both target markets were ones that Wei’s could not afford to miss.

"This..." The other party still wanted to negotiate a bit more.

Zhang Li was very straightforward, "This is the only plan I have for cooperation with Wei’s."

"I won’t change my mode of cooperation."

"Of course, if you think it’s not good, then there’s no need to continue talking."

"We can’t talk?" Those who could sit in this position had no idea how many major projects they had gone through, and they knew how to negotiate with the other party.

It could be said that the projects they negotiated were really numerous, and they had encountered many difficult and cunning opponents.

But opponents as straightforward and direct as Zhang Li were truly rare, and even if there were any, they were easily dealt with.

Yet, it was precisely Zhang Li that they couldn’t easily handle, as she held what they needed in her hands.

The staff from Wei’s felt quite frustrated, angry at Wei Yan for initially agreeing to sell the land to her.

If the land was sold, it was sold—it was a normal business act, and cooperation wasn’t impossible.

But it just so happened that Wei Yan and his son were really tough to deal with, causing Zhang Li to hold great resentment against them and directly severing any route to cooperation.

"Fine, we’ll do it your way," Wei’s CEO had no choice, feeling aggrieved but helpless.

Zhang Li swiftly returned to her seat, her movements were quick.

How could the other party not know that this was definitely putting a firm grip on Zhang Li, "Why can’t you cover up even a little?"

"No need, time is tight. The sooner we finish talking, the sooner you can start developing, and I can head to America earlier."

The other party wasn’t surprised; they knew Zhang Li had excellent grades, having already received a Harvard scholarship, and would be attending school there in September.

The people present were all parents too, not lacking those with exceptional children, but compared to Zhang Li, there was indeed a significant gap.

They really didn’t understand where Wei Yan got his damn good luck from, that a woman left to fend for herself outside could turn out so outstanding.

"If we hadn’t come, what would have been your plan for developing the area?" Wei’s CEO felt that even if they didn’t get involved, Zhang Li would find a way to develop it.

"I would work hard to make money, then develop housing, and then sell the houses. Anyway, I can start developing step by step."

Zhang Li had it all planned out: although it would be difficult at first, once the houses were built, progress would be very smooth afterward.

Listening to Zhang Li’s analysis made the people from Wei’s take a long breath and wipe the sweat from their foreheads, "If, Wei Yan had considered you as his successor, honestly, even if you started from the grassroots."

"I really might not be a match for you." The girl’s thought process was indeed too sharp.

"I won’t join Wei’s. Joining Wei’s is also like working for them."

"I can start a business on my own. Besides, my own business has nothing to do with Wei’s, and nobody would be nagging in my face."

Zhang Li was very direct, "Compared to a bunch of so-called elders, a group of veterans constantly nagging over my head."

"I’d rather rely on myself and work hard on my business." Zhang Li felt she wasn’t cut out for being a second-generation entrepreneur.

Too many so-called elders nagging overhead, just the thought of it was bothersome.

The people from Wei’s didn’t expect Zhang Li’s response to be like this; they never thought that Wei’s, which seemed so attractive in the eyes of many, would be so disliked by Zhang Li.

But then they thought about some of the old-timers in the company who, relying on their seniority, would constantly nag and nag.

Alright, they understood and could comprehend Zhang Li’s perspective.

"Most importantly, would Mr. Wei be content to have me, his outsider daughter, as his successor?"

"Would Young Master Wei be willing to admit defeat?"
