Chapter 545: Collaborating Again (2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
With no hesitation, Jian Ai explained the core problem of this collaboration.
Just like how she had discussed this matter with Bai Zhou before, Jian Ai’s first choice of partner would always be Century Group. If she failed, she would consider other companies.
Chen Lei did not have any experience in an amusement park project, but as Jian Ai had said, Century Group had already dispatched many people to the hotel project. In addition, Century Group needed people for the project they were developing.
Therefore, Chen Lei did not know if the number of people in the company’s construction department could reach Jian Ai’s expectations.
With this thought in mind, Chen Lei looked at Jian Ai and asked, “How many people do you need for your construction project plan?”
“Fifteen hundred,” Jian Ai said bluntly.
When Chen Lei heard this number, he immediately gasped.
A construction project with fifteen hundred people. How big was this amusement park?
Chen Lei had a concept of an area of over six hundred thousand square meters, but how would they construct this amusement park? Did it really require fifteen hundred people?
As if guessing Chen Lei’s doubts, Jian Ai explained, “This is not only going to be the first large outdoor amusement park in Baiyun City. My goal is for it to be the best amusement park in China. It’ll be even better than the one in the capital!”
Without using fancy words to describe, Jian Ai used the word ‘best’ to describe everything.
Although he felt surprised, this teenage girl in front of him had a sheer amount of boldness that time and again convinced him.
When he heard about the six-star hotel project last time, he felt the same way.
After a while, Chen Lei regained his senses and nodded gently. “Your company has a construction team of over three hundred people now. In other words, I need at least a thousand people on my end.”
“That’s right,” Jian Ai said.
Chen Lei looked a little embarrassed. Not that his company did not have a construction team with more than a thousand people, but he had to consider himself.
If he gave Jian Ai more than a thousand people, he would have to cut off Century Group’s projects.
After all, this amusement park project was an enormous project that could not be completed in a day. If they transferred more than a thousand construction workers to East Sea Real Estate, it meant that over a thousand people would be involved in this project for two to three years.
With this thought in mind, Chen Lei sighed and looked at Jian Ai. “Xiao Ai, Uncle Chen will tell you the truth and won’t stand on ceremony.”
Jian Ai nodded seriously and made a listening posture.
When Chen Lei saw this, he continued, “There are only a handful of real estate companies in Baiyun City with more than a thousand people in the construction department. It’s not easy to find a partner for your project.”
“Uncle Chen’s Century Group does have sufficient manpower in the construction department, but we have already dispatched four hundred people for your hotel project. In addition to Century Group’s own projects, there are about a thousand construction workers working on other projects now.”
“There’s also about a thousand people without projects in the company now, but if you want me to send all these people to you, I’m afraid I can’t.”
“And it is because our company has projects planned in the pipeline now. If we give you everyone, these projects won’t be carried out. Do you understand Uncle Chen’s difficulties?”
Chen Lei made it clear. He probably meant that there were people in the company now, but he couldn’t give them all to Jian Ai..
