Everyone was in a state of shock and whispering to each other.
"Did I just have an auditory hallucination?"
"What did she say 'push'?"
"A property worth 2.8 billion..."
"...right?"
Wen Jing went to confirm. "Miss, you didn't mean that just now, did you?"
"You meant'recommend', right..."
"Not 'demolish', right..."
Song Ya looked at Wen Jing, then at Zhu Ning, and then at Cen Shen, who stood steadily and respectfully beside Zhu Ning.
A premonition was vaguely emerging in her heart.
That's right...
They should not have misheard...
Zhu Ning really intended to, once again, demolish this place...
Sure enough.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhu Ning smiled and said, "You heard me right. I do plan to demolish this place."
She continued, "I plan to reduce the number of original 70 residential buildings here to 50, increase the housing area, lower the building density, and improve the garden and greening construction. I want to turn this place into a high - end villa community to provide a better living environment for my employees."
These words were like a mysterious incantation.
Everyone was stunned as if turned to stone.
It was already astonishing enough that she bought a property worth 2.8 billion at twice the price as employee benefits.
Who would have thought that the first thing she did after the purchase was to demolish and rebuild the whole place?
Everyone was in a state of shock and daze, but Zhu Ning was thinking and giving instructions. "Since we're going to rebuild, we should do it well. We should use the best materials for both the exterior and interior of the buildings. For the exterior stone, let's use Italian Carrara white. I'm not sure if a budget of 2 billion for the interior decoration of 50 villas is enough. This is a large - scale project. If we want to shorten the construction time, I wonder if spending 5 billion can get it done..."
Zhu Ning was calculating. "Do you think... 7 billion can solve all the problems?"
No one responded.
She turned around in surprise and saw that all those elite executives behind her were staggering and gaping like they were listening to something from another world.
It was obvious that they had been scared silly.
Zhu Ning asked, "What's wrong with you guys..."
Why did they all look like they had lost their souls...
Everyone looked at her, who seemed completely unaware of the terrifying words she had just said.
A title emerged in their minds simultaneously.
The Big Badass.
The Big Badass who spent money like printing it!
The ultimate Big Badass who spent 13 billion on employee dormitories!
Everyone was completely convinced.
Those who had previously planned to assess her were completely overwhelmed by this kind of grandeur that was rare in the whole world!
"Thank you, President Wen, for the recommendation!"
With the new task assigned, Song Ya and Wen Jing started to mobilize resources and find people to make the plan.
After a series of phone calls, they finally decided that a well - known designer from Beijing would lead a team to fly to Haicheng to be in charge of the overall design guidance.
Preliminary calculations showed that including all the building material costs, construction costs, public greening construction costs, project management fees for the engineering team, and various taxes, the total cost would be around 6.7 billion.
Zhu Ning waved her hand and directly allocated 7.5 billion to Wen Jing as the special project fund.
The light - weighted card landed in Wen Jing's hand, and she almost knelt down on the spot!
Big Badass! Big Badass!
Please show a little bit of emotional fluctuation!
This is 7.5 billion, not 75 yuan!
Bearing such a heavy burden, Wen Jing's breathing slowed down involuntarily.
She was afraid that if her hand trembled, the 7.5 - billion fortune in her hand would be shaken away with her breath.
It was ridiculous that Wen, an elite law school graduate and a well - known rational and eloquent woman, would ever do something so silly!
Wen Jing was extremely cautious, fearing any mistakes.
But Zhu Ning spoke up in time. "Okay, the issue of employee dormitories is solved. Now let's talk about hiring Attorney Wen and your law firm."
Wen Jing: "Huh?"
Half an hour later, Wen Jing led her completely stunned law firm out of Fanyuan.
Everyone was in a state of being too shocked to speak.
A lawyer turned his head blankly and asked, "Are we, like, ascending to a higher level?"
The lawyer beside him was so shocked that his pupils were dilated and out of focus. He was looking at the person but seemed to be unable to find the target. His mind was filled with Zhu Ning's words, "A 30 - million annual salary is too little. It should be 100 million."
"100 million for each person."
He reached out to count his colleagues. One, two, three, four... ten.
Excluding Wen Jing.
Ten people...
1 billion...
Plus the commissions for various cases and top - level insurance...
And... Zhu Ning promised that each of them would be given a villa here as a benefit...
Suddenly, someone let out a loud scream. "Ah!!!"
Hearing this, other colleagues around also started to scream. "Ah!!!!"
Each scream was more excited and passionate than the last.
A 100 - million annual salary!
They used to be top - level lawyers in the red - circle law firms, but their annual salary, including all the case commissions, was only about 10 million!
Now, with a wave of Zhu Ning's hand, it was 100 million for each of them!
What was this if not ascending to a higher level?
What was this if not ascending!
Some people were so excited that they burst into tears.
"Am I dreaming?"
"Am I not going to die tomorrow and having an unrealistic fantasy today?"
Colleagues around were also excited to tears. "Wake up! We've really made it big!"
"Ah!!!!"
"Ah!!!!"
The screams and excited stomping sounds kept coming.
Wen Jing looked down at the two cards in her hand.
One card contained 7.5 billion, which was the project fund for rebuilding Fanyuan.
The other card contained 1.5 billion, which was for paying the basic salaries of the entire law firm.
"I've thought about it. If Miss Zhu wants to hire all of us, I'll need 3 billion, and I'll offer my lawyers a 30 - million annual salary."
"3 billion is too little. I'll give you 5 billion. You're in charge of the team. 30 million is also too little. Each person will have a pre - tax annual salary of 100 million. I'll give you the money, and you're responsible for managing everything about them."
9 billion...
9 billion that was as heavy as a mountain and as hot as a flint!
Wen Jing trembled as she carefully put away the cards.
Then, with extremely unsteady hands that almost dropped the phone several times, she dialed a number and said in a low and shrill voice to the person on the other end, "Grandpa! Your granddaughter has finally made it big! I've ascended to godhood!"
Wen Zhongping put down the phone and looked at Cheng Minqiu beside him with a smile.
"So, Lao Cheng, what's your decision?"
Cheng Minqiu was stunned on the spot.
13.5 billion for employee dormitories,
A more than 300% increase in the salary of all lawyers!
Spending 21 billion in less than ten days!
And she still had more assets to be spent!
Cheng Minqiu's hands, which had never trembled even during a ten - hour high - precision surgery, were now shaking violently!
His face was full of horror, and his pupils were trembling!
He had never heard or seen anything like this!
There was only one such person in the world!
"Brother Zhongping, I was too shortsighted before. Thank you in advance for your recommendation, Minqiu is really grateful."
Hearing this, Wen Zhongping laughed heartily and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't mention it. The young lady will be very happy that you're joining the team!"
"By the way, don't forget to bring your apprentice here."
Otherwise, their young lady would have wasted 5 billion for nothing!
The old man blew his beard.
Humph.
It's not going to be that easy!
