Chapter 1215 Gambler's Mentality
Sitting down, Wei Shijie picked up the cup, took a big sip, and cursed: "Damn it, why is Lang Maocai so worried about giving me such a crappy project?"
Chu Tianshu corrected him with a smile: "It's an outer ring road reconstruction project, not a demolition project!"
"Isn't this kind of half-finished project a broken project?" Wei Shijie said angrily: "Old Chu, let alone Qingyuan, no one is willing to take it in the whole of China. Let me take it, and my head will be damaged.
The donkey kicked? If we don’t get more than 30% profit from government projects now, who is willing to do it?”
Chu Tianshu said: "Lao Yan and the others have calculated that if they are done, there should be some profit."
"What Lao Yan and the others calculated is a theoretical value under normal circumstances. It is not enough to cover the interest on advance payment. If I catch up on the work a little and the price of materials increases, I will definitely lose money." Wei Shijie said: "If I want to take on this project,
On the basis of the existing quotation, it must be increased by at least 20% to be able to maintain capital."
"Impossible!" Chu Tianshu shook his head and said, "The total cost of the project has been determined a long time ago. If the government wants to increase the budget, it will have to hold a people's meeting, and the day lily will be cold."
Chu Tianshu was quite kind and did not directly say that Lang Maocai did not agree to increase the budget at all.
Seeing Chu Tianshu's firm words, Wei Shijie fell silent and habitually took out a cigarette and lit it.
Wei Shijie is not a big smoker. He may or may not smoke on a daily basis, but he will definitely smoke under two circumstances: one is when he is thinking about something, and the other is when he has finished his work.
Yan Zhiyong and the others have told the truth about the project without reservation. It is obvious that this is not a profitable business, or even a loss-making business.
Who does the business that does not make money, the business that loses money?
Unless you get kicked in the head by a donkey!
The purpose of doing engineering is to make money, and there is no need to consider projects that do not make money.
But this matter happened to fall on Chu Tianshu again!
Chu Tianshu flatly refused, and of course Chu Tianshu had nothing to say, but in Lang Maocai's mind, would his impression of me and Chu Tianshu be greatly reduced? Wouldn't the effort and investment spent on him in the early stage have been in vain?
Could it be that Lang Maocai felt that my efforts were not deep enough, so he used this project to test it? Wei Shijie suddenly remembered that the last time he played golf, Lang Maocai had a lively conversation with the caddy named Li Xinran. Could it be that
Some things were not done properly and the mayor was unhappy. He deliberately gave me a difficult problem to test me?
The thinking of businessmen and the thinking of officials are often not on the same track.
The same person asked a difficult question. Chu Tianshu was thinking about how to balance the relationship between the municipal party committee secretary and the mayor, and how to do something good for the people. But Wei Shijie was thinking about how the mayor had given the root of the problem.
It's a hard bone that makes your teeth grind when you chew it. If you don't chew it, you may lose the chance to eat meat and drink soup in the future.
When Chu Tianshu saw Wei Shijie smoking, he knew that he was hesitating. Otherwise, given his temper, he would have refused.
All rational thinking is useless at this moment. Even the best scientists cannot calculate the answer to what the future will be like.
Wei Shijie subconsciously rubbed his temples.
"How's it going? Old Wei, do you want to take a gamble?" Chu Tianshu asked with a smile without losing the opportunity. He knew Wei Shijie too well. Since he started from scratch, what time has it not been a gamble?
Stupid, take another gamble. If you lose this time, you still have a chance to make it back. If you don’t gamble, if you want to have a chance to make money in the future, you will have to place a bigger bet on Lang Maocai, and you may lose even more.
big.
As the saying goes, don’t be afraid of losing or suffering as long as you don’t quit gambling. Once you quit gambling, the losses cannot be made up!
How can you win if you don't bet? Some time ago, I almost lost everything when I bet on the land in Aotou Bay. Didn't I get through the risk in the end? Now, it seems that the risk of betting on the outer ring road reconstruction project is not as high as last time, so it may not be possible.
Can you lose miserably?
I was with Wen Jiaqi today, and when it came to Chu Tianshu, he also said that this guy is a lucky general. When he is in trouble, he can always meet a noble person.
I walked with him all the way, and every time I was gambling, I never lost.
Wei Shijie firmly believed that no matter what, Chu Tianshu would not let him lose without even wearing pants!
"What the hell, it's just my fault for being careless in making friends and being unkind to others!" Wei Shijie put out the cigarette butt with all his strength and said with determination, "Let's take another gamble! We agreed, this is the last time, please don't open your mouth in the future.
mouth."
"Haha!" Chu Tianshu smiled lightly. He knew very well that for Wei Shijie, a gambler, there would be no so-called last time!
In addition to winning and losing, gambling itself contains huge excitement, which can give gamblers endless pleasure. Making money, like gambling, can make a person addicted, unable to stop, and gamble forever, and the bets will become bigger and bigger!
As soon as he went to work the next day, Chu Tianshu replied to Lang Maocai that Century Sunshine was willing to take over the outer ring road reconstruction project.
Lang Maocai said happily: "Okay! Xiao Chu, tell Mr. Wei, just do what I said, do this job well, and many things will be easier to handle in the future."
"Many things will be easier to handle in the future." This is a sentence that is enough to make Wei Shijie think about it.
In order to meet the construction deadline, Century Sunshine's construction team entered the site immediately after signing the contract.
Three days later, Lang Maocai brought Vice Mayor Chu Tianshu, Finance Bureau Director Liu Guangshi, and Urban Construction Bureau Director Yan Zhiyong to the construction site to work.
After Lang Maocai watched the busy construction scene, he called Wei Shijie over and asked Yan Zhiyong next to him, pretending that he had never known him: "Old Yan, is this the director of Century Sunshine, right?"
Wei Shijie followed the acting: "I am Wei Shijie."
Lang Maocai asked: "Mr. Wei, can the construction period be guaranteed?"
Wei Shijie vowed: "With the correct leadership of the mayor and the strong support of various departments of the municipal government, we will definitely try our best to ensure the construction schedule and quality."
"Okay!" Lang Maocai ignored Wei Shijie and turned to Yan Zhiyong and said: "Old Yan, a few days ago I asked you to recommend a strong local builder to me in Qingyuan. You are very discerning and recommended Century Sunshine.
.Otherwise, we don’t know how long the road reconstruction of the Outer Ring Road will be delayed? We must strongly support such enterprises!”
"Yes!" Yan Zhiyong pushed up his helmet and agreed loudly.
Lang Maocai seemed to be conveying a message to everyone that he only met Wei Shijie through Yan Zhiyong's recommendation. He also hinted that he did not know the relationship between Chu Tianshu and Wei Shijie.
When talking about funds, Liu Guangshi, director of the Finance Bureau, came out to complain, saying that according to the contract, within half a month of the start of construction, the government must pay 5 million project fees in advance. But now money is everywhere, can the payment deadline be pushed back?
Extended by half a month.
Upon hearing this, Lang Maocai looked at Chu Tianshu and said, "Deputy Mayor Chu, you are in charge of this project now. What do you think?"
Chu Tianshu immediately darkened his face and said: "Director Liu, of course I know that there is a shortage of money everywhere now, but the more times this happens, the more money must be spent wisely. How do you think of ways to save money from other places?"
No matter what, the project funds for the Outer Ring Road reconstruction project cannot be delayed for a day, and must be allocated in accordance with the contract."
Everyone felt Chu Tianshu's powerful aura.
