Chapter 401: Reclamation?
Standing at the door of the villa's courtyard was a middle-aged white woman in a blue suit. The smart professional attire looks very formal, and it can be seen from the logo on her briefcase that Jiang Chen is from the Dutch BMA construction company. At present, they are in charge of the infrastructure reconstruction and tourism resource development projects in the Panu Islands.
As for the purpose of her trip, Jiang Chen could roughly guess that most of them were here to "collect debts".
It is a shame to say that according to the project contract, the tenderer should pay for this phase of the project every time the construction party completes the first phase of the project. However, because Jiang Chen was not here, he naturally couldn't sign the payment form, so the payment has been delayed until now.
Finally caught the news of Jiang Chen's return, BMA Construction Company naturally immediately sent a salesman, hoping to solve the problem of project payment as soon as possible. Although there is a guarantee from Future Technology, they are not afraid that Jiang Chen will hack their money, but this project money has been dragging on their capital chain, which is a big test.
didn't let her wait long, Jiang Chen pressed the iron door switch and went out to greet her in person.
After seeing Jiang Chen, the lady bowed slightly and introduced herself politely.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang Chen. I'm Hannah. Cavill, manager of BMA's European headquarters. ”
"Come in and talk about it." Jiang Chen smiled and made a gesture of please.
Hannah nodded and walked through the courtyard door of the villa.
As Jiang Chen walked towards the gate of the villa, her eyes looked around from time to time. Lush subtropical vegetation blooms neatly around the lawn, and the wide leaf of low wood is shaped like an umbrella canopy, and the whole villa resembles a castle surrounded by trees.
A very beautiful villa. It's just that she always feels a faint sense of disobedience.
"What are you looking for?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
"Hmm" Hannah pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized what the problem was. He asked, "Why don't you have a gardener in your villa?" ”
Because of business needs. She has been to the Middle East many times. There she had seen many similar villas, all of which had gardeners who had been mruning the flowers all day. Judging from the flatness of the lawn of this villa, it should have been taken care of, but at this moment she did not see the figure of the gardener.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen smiled, "I observed very carefully, but my villa doesn't need a gardener." ”
With that, he beckoned to the bushes beside him.
A disc-shaped drone flew out of the bushes and hovered over his hand. If you don't take it apart, the drone itself is not a shocking technology. Jiang Chen didn't hide it.
However, Hannah, who witnessed this scene, widened her eyes, and sighed after a while: "Drone gardening? It's really shocking technology. Although we have been following the technological progress in this area, this is the first time I have seen the finished product, can I know which company made it? ”
Waving his hand and retreating the drone, Jiang Chen teased, "Bill. Doesn't Gates also like to renovate his own mansion? Why do you think it's the work of a big company? ”
Hannah was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"You're really humorous."
After inviting her into the villa, the two took a seat on the sofa in the living room, and Aisha thoughtfully poured a cold drink for the two.
In such weather, a glass of chilled orange juice is undoubtedly a wonderful treat.
No more pleasantries. Hannah skillfully took out the document from her briefcase and handed it to Jiang Chen.
"At present, the development project of the tourist area and infrastructure construction of the Panu Islands has been carried out at 50%, and it is expected to be completed in December this year, which is the detailed information of the completion of the project. In accordance with the contract. We have completed two phases of the project, I wonder if it is convenient for you to pay for the two phases of the project first? ”
Jiang Chen just picked up the document and glanced at it twice, then said casually.
"Of course it's convenient. Bring the payment slip. ”
Hannah nodded, and quickly pulled out a two-sheet payment slip from her briefcase.
The two phases of the project are worth a total of $4 billion. After confirming that the number was not more or less, Jiang Chen happily signed the payer's column.
I saw Jiang Chen signing. Hannah's hanging heart finally let go and she breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, she is really a little afraid that the future people will be in arrears for the project, although the agreement stipulates that the first phase of payment will be completed, but there is still a review process in it. If the tenderer does not approve that you have completed these projects, or you are stuck in the acceptance process for two or three years, it is not without precedent in the world. Doing business overseas is a gamble. Before she came, she had made all kinds of plans, and even prepared no less than a hundred sets of arguments on how to persuade the owner of the money to pay.
However, the final result was beyond her expectations, Jiang Chen actually paid the money so easily, as if what he had signed out just now was not 4 billion, but just a restaurant bill.
One for each side of the payment slip, Hannah put the one belonging to BMA Construction in her briefcase, and hugged the briefcase to her chest with relief.
"We're ashamed to say that before we came, we thought you were going to hide from our dunning before we disappeared. I'm sorry for my rude assumptions. ”
As she spoke, Hannah stood up and bowed to Jiang Chen.
"It's okay." Jiang Chen waved his hand and joked, "If someone owes me 4 billion, I have to be careful to prevent him from going missing." ”
I don't know if I was amused by Jiang Chen's joke or by Jiang Chen's English, Hannah pursed her lips and smiled.
"By the way, can I ask about something?" Jiang Chen asked.
Successfully got the project money for the company, Hannah was naturally very happy, so she said with a pleasant face: "Of course you can." ”
"Do you have any experience with island building at BMA Construction?"
Isn't there a saying that says, "God made the sea, and the Netherlands made the land". Since the 13th century, the country has been reclaimed from the sea on a large scale, and today 20% of the Netherlands is reclaimed by hand. The hills have been dug up and reclaimed, and almost the whole province of Flevoland has been created.
Although the Panu Islands have a vast sea, the land area has always been tight. Although it still seems to be a little sparsely populated now, that's only because the population is only 20,000 now. Once the immigration policy is relaxed, without affecting tourism resources, Jiang Chen estimates that he will be able to load another 100,000 people with a full calculation. And the Celestial Empire randomly pulls out a county with dozens or even millions of people, and it is not enough to see that there are only 100,000 people in the entire new country.
Jiang Chen had always heard that the Netherlands' land reclamation technology was very advanced, and he couldn't help but ask when he thought that BMA was also a well-known company in the Netherlands. (To be continued.) )
