Chapter 2279: Chapter 2081: Gu Linxi vs. Cui Jiangjing
Liu Hengbo poured her a cup of tea and let her sit on the sofa, handing over the prepared documents from the desk.
His previous cheerfulness was replaced by a serious demeanor, and with a square face, he spoke slowly, "You know that Jianda Group is a company that Madam started as a plaything, and although it wasn’t affiliated under Gu Real Estate, the company’s many businesses were actually connected to Gu Real Estate. After Mr. Gu and Madam committed suicide, the Gu Clan was taken over by the old lady and the second young master. At first, Gu Real Estate treated us as before, cooperating when needed, handling business formally.
As time went on, Gu Real Estate gradually stabilized and their attitude towards us changed. Not only did they find excuses to withdraw our collaborations, but they also found ways to suppress Jianda in the industry. Jianda is a small company, and over the years, although I’ve managed to secure some small projects through old clients, the company’s operation still faces significant difficulties. Now that the young heiress has returned, I’ll share the truth with you. The company hasn’t secured a decent project in almost a year; at this rate, not to mention other things, we won’t even be able to support the people under us, and bankruptcy is just a matter of time."
Upon saying this, he angrily slammed the table, nearly causing his wristwatch to burst off, "The people at Gu Real Estate are really too much! I initially didn’t expect them to be so heartless; this company is, after all, the only legacy Madam left for you. It wasn’t enough for them to seize Mr. Gu’s assets, they also want to suppress Jianda. We’re supposed to be family, is this necessary? I personally sought out Mr. Gu, and Mr. Gu didn’t even want to see me. Ah, Miss. I have failed you; I’m useless for not safeguarding the company your mother left you. You’re also at the age for marriage, maybe you should sell Jianda! Get some money, be thrifty, and you won’t have to worry about money in the latter half of your life."
He didn’t have the heart to tell Gu Linxi that even if they wanted to sell the company, Gu Real Estate would likely cause trouble and deliberately suppress the price in the industry.
Jianda is still a small listed company, and ending up being acquired for very little money breaks his heart!
Moreover, he was an old partner who worked with Gu Linxi’s parents, and although he was at Jianda, he still cared about Gu Real Estate.
Under Gu Qinian, Gu Real Estate had been declining for over ten years. Gu Qinian appointed based on favoritism, was arrogant, and wasn’t meant for business. He nearly destroyed Gu Real Estate’s reputation, watching it gutted him!
He couldn’t say these things to a girl barely in her twenties, but keeping it inside felt suffocating.
Looking at Gu Linxi, he bore a weighty gaze, "Young heiress, I’m happier than anyone that you decided to come back, but Jianda’s situation is more complex than you can imagine, not something you can handle. Please listen to your uncle’s advice, convert the company into money, keep some for yourself, and I’ll be a bit more at ease."
Gu Linxi scanned the documents quickly, lifted her head, and asked him with clear eyes, "I’ve reviewed Jianda’s information. Our capabilities aren’t weak, and our relationships with suppliers are well maintained. We can obtain top-grade steel and have cooperative construction teams..."
Liu Hengbo shook his head, sighing, "Young heiress, the company’s issue isn’t about capability." Indeed, she was still young and didn’t understand his point.
"I know." Gu Linxi nodded, her cool white skin glistening like porcelain under the light, almost blinding, "We lack projects that we can initiate, right? Have you heard that Jikang Group bought a piece of land to construct a new headquarters?"
