Chapter 642: Altar Palace No. 9
Living in the old villa on Julu Road may seem nice, but it actually brings a lot of troubles.
For example, if you live close to the road, you can hear horns honking outside from time to time. Once you open the window, the noise will make you depressed.
For example, if you live too close to your neighbors, and they teach their children to play drums at home, there is no sense of rhythm at all, and it can only be considered noise at best.
Similar to the courtyard houses on the northern edge of Houhai in Yanjing, the old houses also lack property management and have almost no privacy. People often try to take secret photos by lying on the wall.
Ever since this place was bought by Fan Wumian, it has become a check-in spot for fans, and the outer walls of the house are covered with various words.
Occasionally, some black fans would write curses on him for no reason, but the thoughtful fans would help scrape them off, leaving the walls looking like they had been gnawed by a dog, which was a disgusting sight.
Just like the middle class who have saved 200,000 or 300,000 yuan and can't help but want to make some money, Fan Wumian shorted Huifeng Bank and other companies and successfully made a lot of money, and his mind began to become active.
Thinking that since he had decided to place Tudou.com and the mainland Bandit King Fund headquarters in Shanghai for a long time, he would probably come here on business trips more often in the future. He remembered that the last time he went to Shang K, Boss Li mentioned that he wanted to sell him a villa in Dan Palace.
After chatting with Zuo Ziyan, I suddenly became interested and decided to call her to ask.
After hearing Fan Wumian's identity, Mr. Li, who was in the construction business, was so excited that he asked:
"Mr. Fan, you are in Shanghai? That's great. I have a party tonight. How about we have something to eat together?"
Fan Wumian wanted to accompany Miss Zuo, but he declined after hearing this:
"Boss Li, you are too polite. No need to have dinner. I want to ask if you are still interested in selling the Tangong Villa I mentioned last time. If you need to raise funds, I will buy it. If you are not in a hurry, forget it. I can look for it somewhere else."
Boss Li said generously:
"You came even though there was no arrangement. It's just a good opportunity for you to help me support the business. The Fourth Bureau of Zhongtie is negotiating a business deal with me recently. Can I borrow the power of the tiger to bully you?"
"The developer gave me Building 9 of Tan Palace at a cost price of 4000 million. If you need it, you can take it at the original price. Now is a good time to go and take a look. If you like it, I will give you the key and then we can go out for dinner together."
"I didn't treat you well last time. Give me a chance this time. Some places are more interesting than last time."
"."
Boss Li’s ancestral home is in the Northeast. When he gets enthusiastic, it’s really hard to resist. It seems like the word “sense of boundaries” doesn’t exist in his dictionary at all.
Fan Wumian had a headache and said:
"Okay, then I'll bring a friend with me. Boss Li, remember to bring fewer people. Her identity is not well known. How about we meet at the entrance of the Dan Palace at 4:30?"
"Also, when I come here to start a company, they may grant me a piece of land for residential use. Then, I can hand over the development project to you."
"It's a small project, covering an area of about 4 square meters, and it should be a residential building with a 70-year property right."
Taking advantage of the opportunity to keep Tudou's headquarters in Shanghai, Fan Wumian took the initiative to negotiate some conditions. The land for the supporting "employee dormitory" had not yet been approved, and even if it was obtained, it might not be developed immediately, but these did not prevent him from painting a big pie for Boss Li first.
Hear him out.
Boss Li was indeed very positive and said enthusiastically:
"No problem. We are all Mr. Wang's friends. Why don't we just follow each other?"
If all is said and done, Fan Wumian's actual total net worth has already surpassed that of Huang Guangyu, the richest man in mainland China last year.
This means he has the opportunity to make friends with the richest man, so Boss Li is of course very enthusiastic, not to mention that Fan Wumian also has several big projects in his hands.
Whether it is the land next to Shencheng Bay or the land next to the Olympic Village, they are often mentioned by the media, and many construction company bosses are eyeing them.
After saying hello to Zuo Ziyan, Fan Wumian took her out to relax.
After waiting for a while at the entrance of the Altar Palace, I soon saw Boss Li coming alone in a Bentley Mulsanne.
After all, he is a boss with a net worth of hundreds of millions. He can squeeze into the circle of Wanda President Wang. Of course, he has some strength. It is no pressure for him to buy a car worth several million. If he buys it in the name of the company, he can also use depreciation to offset taxes.
After meeting, Fan Wumian opened the car window a little and helped introduce:
"This is Zuo Ziyan, the only daughter of the Zuo family real estate in Gangcheng. Last time, I helped Mr. Wang to get a lot of financing from her family."
That was enough. Boss Li was also sitting in the car, smiling brightly, and only replied:
"Ms. Zuo and Mr. Fan, they are a perfect match. Follow me and drive in. There are only 18 houses in total. It's easy to find. Next door is the Xijiao Hotel. If it weren't for the high cost of renovation, it would probably cost or million to make it look presentable. I would have packed up and lived here myself."
Fan Wumian smiled and replied, "This price is very cheap. I hope Boss Li doesn't suffer any loss."
Boss Li waved his hand casually and said:
"It's said that each building costs hundreds of millions, but who is willing to spend so much money to buy it?"
"It's just that there's no demand for it. If I really want to put it up for sale, I'm afraid I can only sell it for more than 40 or 50 million, and it may not be sold in the short term."
"Let's go, I'll say hello to the security guard"
It was a rare opportunity to come across a house with property management, walls and security guards, and Fan Wumian actually felt quite happy.
After all, from the Repulse Bay in the port city, to the Shahe Golf Villa District in Shenzhen, to Julu Road and the northern edge of Houhai in Yanjing, these villas seem comfortable, but in fact, people come and go at the doorsteps, and they are all public areas with no restrictions at all.
Others might think it’s nothing, but Fan Wumian is a popular top star with fans everywhere, which makes him helpless and he is often disturbed by strangers.
Coming to the extraordinarily spacious courtyard of Building No. 9 of Dan Gong, the main building in the Italian Florentine style was built just two years ago and looks particularly new from the outside.
The property area is very large, with 1160.8 square meters above ground and 458.32 square meters underground, with a total area of 2437.12 square meters. The private garden is more than 1500 square meters.
Boss Li brought the property certificate directly. All this information was marked on the property certificate. The actual building area was larger than the marked area.
The house itself doesn’t matter, as long as it’s comfortable to live in. The quiet feeling of a neighborhood like this with almost no passers-by is what Fan Wumian likes most.
On the other hand, at the courtyard houses on the northern edge of Houhai, there are often tour guides holding loud speakers at the door, introducing things like "This is where Fan Wumian stays every time he comes to Yanjing." The voices are so loud that he can hear them clearly at home. The feeling is really indescribable.
As for every time I take the girls home, it is almost like guarding against thieves. I am afraid that someone will put their face against the glass and look inside, so I need to have the bodyguards get out of the car and guard there in advance.
all in all.
In terms of living, Fan Wumian began to have higher demands and had to pay attention to privacy.
There is nothing to complain about in all aspects of Dan Palace. The security at the gate is very strict and outsiders will be allowed in only after the residents’ approval. At the same time, there are not many residents. There are only 18 villas in total, which form a small world behind closed doors.
As for the return on investment, it would not be a problem to increase it seven or eight times. Starting with a price of 4000 million RMB, you will not lose money no matter how you calculate it.
then.
After a brief indoor and outdoor tour, Fan Wumian was particularly satisfied with the extra-large indoor swimming pool and offered to buy the house on the spot.
Boss Li was also very happy. He had no idea how much the housing prices in Shanghai would rise in the future. No businessman would complain about having too much cash on hand.
Boss Li thought that investing 4000 million RMB in anything was better than continuing to hold the house. The house was originally acquired to pay for the construction project, so it would be a waste to keep it.
After discussing the deal, Boss Li turned his attention to Zuo Ziyan and asked with a smile:
"Ms. Zuo, I heard from Mr. Wang from Wanda that your family is looking for projects in the mainland? Actually, I have always wanted to transform into the real estate business. The profit from building houses is far less than that from selling houses. The D1 plot in Xinjiangwan City is being demolished. The location is particularly good. I even went there for a field trip. There are subways, shopping malls, schools, and hospitals nearby."
Before Zuo Ziyan could speak, Fan Wumian interrupted and said:
"Are you still thinking about expansion? The financial crisis is really coming, wouldn't it be nice to pick up bargains later? Listen to my advice, draw down funds and make steady progress, wait for the winter for the next two years, I won't take advantage of your house for nothing, if the loss is not big afterwards, Brother Li, remember to treat me to a meal"
