Eddie and Lin Zitan glanced at each other, each took a sip of wine, and didn't speak.

"By the way, Eric said you came to me to talk about a cooperation, what kind of cooperation?"

Richard looked up after he had finished his drink and asked about the focus of the day.

"Oh~ That's the case, we are ready to develop a real estate in partnership, and I heard Eric recommend that your family is a one-stop service from construction engineering to property management, so I want to see if there will be any possibility of cooperation in the future~"

Lin Zi didn't wait for Eddie to speak, and hurriedly spoke.

"Oh~yes??Eric isn't involved in the management of the family business at all, so you're looking for me to really find the right person!" Richard said proudly.

"That's that, that's why we asked Eric to introduce you to us, if there is really a project cooperation in the future, I have to trouble you to take care of it~"

Eddie instantly understood Lin Zitan's intentions, and hurriedly agreed.

"It's easy to say, this is my business card, the back is my personal phone number, if you need to talk about the project, you can contact me directly in the future, Eric really doesn't know anything about the family business, don't delay your big event at that time!"

The corners of Richard's mouth rose slightly as he spoke, and he repeatedly emphasized that Eric was unspeakable in their family.

The three of them didn't talk speculatively, and in the end they just chatted idly for a while, and Lin Zitan got up from the sofa under the pretext of going home to coax the child to sleep, and Hai was apologetic.

"Oh, that's fine, let's go away! I'll have a video conference with a couple of executives later!" said Richard.

Lin Zitan went out to pay the bill, saw Eddie and Richard shaking hands and saying goodbye, and when the two saw him come back, they both politely said thank you, so this first meeting ended like this!

After Richard walked out of the bar, Eddie raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Zitan and said, "How is it, what do you think?"

"I don't have any ideas, I just don't like this person!" Lin Zi frowned and said helplessly.

After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other for two seconds, and suddenly reached out and clapped their hands with a smile.

"Forget it, let's find another suitable one!"

------------------------

Lin Zitan originally wanted to take some time to talk to Zhang Jing about investing in real estate, although he also knew that Zhang Jing didn't seem to be interested in investing in the United States, but he still wanted to give it a try.

"Look at my harvest in the second half of the year! In the first half of the year, hundreds of millions of dollars were invested, and it will soon bear fruit!"

After Zhang Jing listened to Lin Zitan's thoughts, he said lightly.

So far, Lin Zitan has not talked about it anymore, the so-called twisted melon is not sweet, and it is not a business to catch up, Lin Zitan doesn't want to bother this old friend who is trapped by love because of this matter.

As soon as Zhang Jing returned to the United States, he asked Lin Zitan to find someone to find a relationship to investigate the foreigner designer.

Lin Zitan's subordinates also happened to have an intelligence agency, so it was effortless to find out the eighteenth generation of the designer's ancestor.

A third-generation Italian immigrant who has won a design award at Milan Fashion Week, graduated from a prestigious fashion design school in New York.

He has been married to his wife for 15 years and has a son and two daughters, and his wife is a model for his first clothing design company.

After knowing that this person was not a threat, Zhang Jinggang was ready to return to the mainland not long after settling Alice and the two children, because he had two or three scripts in his hand to start filming, which was the busiest time.

Before leaving, Lin Zitan and Emma both persuaded him to think about it, not to always drill the horns, and let him give Alice a little more space, which is also the information Emma got from Alice.

Over the years, Alice has followed Zhang Jing to develop in China, although she has never given up doing fashion design, but due to the difference in Chinese and American culture and aesthetics, Zhang Jing has helped her spend a lot of money on promotion and has not been able to make her brand bigger and more popular.

So Alice is often depressed because of her career, but because her children are young and Zhang Jing is getting busier and busier, she doesn't put her career in the first place.

In the past two years, as the children have grown older and the time to need a mother has become less and less, Alice suddenly feels that the most important thing for a woman is not only her family and children, but also her own career.

Especially all kinds of temptations constantly appeared around Zhang Jing, and many small flowers and grasses who wanted to take the opportunity to take the position dangled in front of Zhang Jing's eyes.

Although in Zhang Jing's own opinion, it is nothing, and he only has Alice in his heart, but Alice has always had a knot in his heart.

And this knot is also the career she has not been able to complete, whether it is modeling or clothing design, she always wants to make some achievements, so that she can choose her love and life more independently.

Before getting on the plane, Zhang Jing wanted to say something to Alice, but because the atmosphere of the previous night was quite good, he was embarrassed to put his worries on his face, and it was not until he got on the plane that he explained to Lin Zitan and asked people to help watch a little.

"You can relax, I have already transferred John, who was in charge of my mother's security, to help keep an eye on it, and I will notify you as soon as there is any clue~" Lin Zitan teased with a smile.

"It's not...... You also know that they don't have any concept of loyalty, I'm afraid that the foreign devil will tempt her. Zhang Jing couldn't help but express his worries.

"Didn't you investigate it clearly? That person has a wife and a family, okay, don't be suspicious, so worrying, let's deal with it over there quickly, come back and guard it here!" Lin Zitan said helplessly.

…………………

The days passed quickly, and although Lin Zitan and Eddie had never found a stronger partner, the time for the land auction was getting closer and closer.

"Why don't we try it ourselves?" Lin Zitan looked at Eddie at a loss, and couldn't help but propose.

"More than a billion start-up capital! Do you have any chance of winning?"

Eddie said helplessly.

"Are you just giving up? You've been preparing for so long, it doesn't matter if I vote or not, it's a matter of earning more or less. Lin Zitan said with a smile.

"Of course I'm reluctant to give up, but that Richard is really unreliable, from the perspective of character, business, his father is still very wise to hand over the power to his eldest brother!"

"It's a shame we didn't have access to James, who says he's like Harrison, he's busy like a spinning top. Lin Zitan said helplessly.

"It's unlikely that you're busy or not, so don't think about it!"

Eddie ruthlessly dispelled Lin Zitan's last glimmer of hope.

Soon after, the land auction was finally made public by ZF, and not only Lin Zitan had prepared for them with gossip.

Many small and medium-sized real estate development companies have also begun to do their homework and prepare funds as soon as they see such a good opportunity, and they are ready to move on this project.

The auction has finally kicked off in the ardent anticipation of various real estate developers.

Lin Zitan and Eddie walked into the auction site in the heart of auctioning off the land first and then seeking development.

"This is a grand event for major real estate developers in New York, right?

Lin Zitan followed Eddie into the venue and found that there were really a lot of people who came to the auction today, but at the last hurdle of the venue, many people were turned away.

"What's the situation? You still have to get bank statements and company tax returns? Why didn't you notify me in advance?"

A voice in the crowd said indignantly.

"Even if we bring all these materials, it's useless! Our company's materials don't meet the qualifications at all!"

Another voice complained.

"Well, this kind of opportunity is just a good thing, anyway, we are here to join in the fun...... Isn't that Mr. Lin?

Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin~"

As soon as Lin Zitan asked Xiao An to hand the qualification information he was carrying to the staff at the last checkpoint, a voice that was both unfamiliar and slightly familiar came from behind him.
