I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping-Chapter 2232 - 1423: Execution After Autumn

Work is work, life is life.

Anyone who has great achievements can distinguish clearly between the two.

As the second generation at Jinhai, does Shi Qianxi count as successful?

The answer is without a doubt.

Just advanced reincarnation skills?

If that were the case, how could Shi Zhenhua retire so early? Moreover, there are numerous examples of large enterprises employing professional managers rather than passing them on to children.

Starting a business is indeed tough.

And as an heir, the pressure can actually be greater.

Even when everything went smoothly, Director Shi was not in a hurry to meet someone privately to celebrate.

She chose to stay with her subordinates, waiting for that moment of ultimate triumph.

Originally, according to the situation of the talks, Jinhai’s team thought this waiting period wouldn’t be long, at most three to four days, but this week passed, and there was still no news from the government.

After all, this is Beijing Capital.

Could the efficiency really be this low?

Just joking.

But the strangely "long" wait has indeed stirred unease among the Jinhai negotiation team in Beijing.

Not just the subordinates.

Even Shi Qianxi started feeling uneasy; the terms were negotiated, so why is the drafting of the agreement taking so long?

"Director Shi, why don’t you personally call District Chief Chen to find out exactly what’s going on? Every time we call the district government, the response is always to remain calm, and it will be out soon, but it’s already been five days."

The negotiation team’s mindset evolved from doubt to anxiety, even starting to overthink.

To stabilize morale and also to understand the situation, Shi Qianxi decided not to wait any longer and chose to call District Chief Chen, who is the main person responsible for this significant government-business cooperation.

A few seconds later, the call was successfully connected.

In the hotel, everyone remained silent.

"District Chief Chen, this is Shi Qianxi."

"Sorry, Director Shi, for keeping you waiting."

Shi Qianxi wasn’t dealing with officials for the first time and knew their ways; if they starting exchanging pleasantries, they could drag it out for hours without discussing the main topic.

Of course.

This is just figurative.

The opposite party isn’t a minor official with all the time to waste.

So, to save energy for both parties, Shi Qianxi got straight to the point, "District Chief Chen, I’d like to ask when the contract might be finalized? Has there been an issue? If there’s a problem, Jinhai is willing to cooperate to resolve it."

Courteous and respectful.

"Director Shi, actually I’ve been wanting to call you. We might have to delay you a bit."

There really is a problem?

Without changing countenance, Shi Qianxi calmly inquired, "District Chief Chen, what has happened?"

A cough was heard from the other side, not from a sore throat, more like something inconvenient to disclose.

At this level of leadership, generally, policies aren’t casually disclosed, but Jinhai isn’t just any small workshop, so a few seconds after the cough, a voice was still heard over the phone.

"...Regarding the specific use of that land plot, there has been new consideration, and higher-ups are conducting a reassessment, so you might need to patiently wait for some time."

Listening to the calm and deliberate speech from the other side, Shi Qianxi was both surprised and inevitably furrowed her brow.

Wait.

No problem.

If you let her wait for ten days or half a month more, she’d be willing to cooperate.

But here’s the issue.

The fear is waiting for nothing in the end.

From what the other side is suggesting, this is entirely possible.

"New consideration? District Chief Chen, Jinhai has committed enormous determination and prepared thoroughly for this project, and you’re suddenly telling me now..."

Indeed.

It sounds a bit like a last-minute change, as if teasing.

But the words can’t be spoken so unpleasantly.

"Director Shi, I understand your sentiment, and I appreciate Jinhai’s perspective. Personally, I also wish to consummate this collaboration, which would greatly benefit both our district and Jinhai Industry, but."

With resignation in his voice, District Chief Chen continued, "But my personal thoughts only represent my own perspective. Director Shi, you are a responsible and committed entrepreneur, and Jinhai is a company with both height and depth, so sometimes we must consider the bigger picture."

Shi Qianxi adjusted her breathing, maintaining a calm tone.

"Is it due to land pricing issues?"

"Of course not."

District Chief Chen replied firmly, "Maybe it’s a business to Jinhai, but to the government, Director Shi, this isn’t merely a negotiation of buying and selling."

"I’m sorry, District Chief Chen, I misspoke." Shi Qianxi immediately apologized, then continued to probe, "So... is it because other companies are interested in the land?"

The government can’t suddenly change plans.

Even if reconsidering the usage, they wouldn’t do it suddenly and breach after having reached a verbal agreement with her.

Thus, the so-called reconsideration is definitely just an excuse!

"I’ve said all that I can. Director Shi, don’t lose hope; please wait patiently. The conclusion may not necessarily be what you imagine."

Shi Qianxi didn’t make it difficult for the other party. To be aggressive would be ignorant of the situation at hand.

"Thank you, District Chief Chen."

"Alas—"

Before the call ended, Shi Qianxi heard a sigh from the other end.

"Director Shi..."

As Shi Qianxi put down her phone, only then did the others dare to speak, all eyes fixed on her with complex expressions.

As the chairman and the initiator and promoter of this project, perhaps the most difficult thing for Shi Qianxi to face right now is the gaze of her subordinates.

But she was destined not to escape.

"District Chief Chen said, let us maintain patience and wait; the government may have new plans for the land, and once there is a result, we will be informed at the earliest."
