Chapter 1037 Losing Face

Chapter 166 I'll Accompany You

  With a lot on his plate, Su Yehao's daily life was full.

  Therefore, even if there was no room for advancement in his career, he still found life very interesting.

  Just like a life without expectations, it was easy to feel empty, lonely, and cold. A social environment with too much pressure, which made people lose their sense of anticipation, was also prone to problems.

  So, the decision to promote the public housing plan wasn't just a matter of being overly concerned. Su Yehao didn't want to see a social dilemma similar to Japan's in the area where he lived.

  At least Japan had many cities, and people could choose a city suitable for them to live in according to their income, consumption, and environment. The pressure to buy a house was much less than that of Hong Kong residents, who had no way to retreat.

  If tens of thousands of public housing units were launched every year, the pressure on many people would be greatly reduced, which would help improve their sense of happiness.

  In his opinion, this was the same as doing charity, a very meaningful thing.

  Since Zheng Yongwen had already heard the news, he believed that he couldn't hide it from other people either.

  In order not to give others time to respond, Su Yehao posted a few concept maps of the bay area on his Weibo account that night, briefly introduced the idea of satellite cities, and emphasized that he hoped to build a total of 600,000 public housing units within ten years.

  On the Hong Kong Weibo account, there were as many as one million Hong Kong and Casino, 1997 residents following him.

  As soon as the post was put online, the comments underneath exploded. Some people wrote that they had been waiting for six years and still hadn't gotten public housing, while others added crying faces, saying that they had just moved into a new house and should have waited longer.

  More people were extremely excited, writing that they finally didn't have to work for the landlord, or that they should hurry up and save money.

  After the real estate bubble in 1997, a small group of people took advantage of the low prices and bought houses in time. The younger generation obviously didn't catch up with the good times, and now local housing prices had rebounded to high levels.

  ……

  Nangong Tian took a shower and smelled fragrant. She wore pink silk pajamas and ran to the study to find him.

  Seeing Su Yehao staring at the computer screen, constantly refreshing the comments, she curiously scrolled up and said with a smile, "No wonder you can't take your eyes off it. It feels good to be regarded as a savior, right? You're thinking about building public housing again, you're definitely going to offend the other real estate developers. Aren't you afraid that they'll join forces to cause you trouble?"

  "If they had the strength to cause me trouble, they wouldn't just focus their attention on this small piece of land, desperately cutting leeks in the same field."

  Su Yehao said calmly, patted his thigh to let her sit, and then said:

  "Look at this comment, it actually wants me to be a civil servant, with a lot of troubles every day, wouldn't that be jumping into the fire pit myself? I plan to think of a way to take my colleagues in the real estate industry to make money in other places. Their influence doesn't cover other markets, and I can help. When they have better development, they probably won't cling to me."

  After listening, Nangong Tian said, "That's a good idea, but many people have lost their ambition and only know how to lie at home and collect rent. You need to come up with a plan that's attractive enough to them."

  "Isn't this what I'm good at? The smartphone industry is just getting started, and many companies still lack investment. I'll contact a few of the most vocal opponents tomorrow, knock out these thorns first, and the rest will be easier to deal with."

  Dealing with business people was relatively easy. As long as the benefits were big enough, there was nothing that couldn't be discussed.

  The reason why Su Yehao failed last time was mainly because he lacked experience.

  His rise was too smooth, and his style of doing things wasn't smooth enough. After analyzing it, he felt that if he had taken them to invest in Internet companies at the beginning, or participated in more gatherings and made a group of allies, maybe tens of thousands of public housing units would have been built long ago.

  Problems that were as difficult as climbing to the sky in the eyes of others were at most only generally difficult for Su Yehao.

  Having been careless once, he didn't plan to fail a second time. If the bragging he had done couldn't be realized, he would lose face.

  Nangong Tian knew the development potential of the smartphone industry very well. She sat on his lap, brushed the comments, and deleted a few sarcastic ones that she didn't like. She said again:

  "This is a bit too extravagant. Didn't you say that mining in Australia has a lot of potential? It's a bit of a waste to use the shares of smartphones on this."

  Su Yehao explained:

  "I will support one or two other brands, equipped with the Pangu operating system, mainly for opening up the international market. The mainland's strength continues to grow, and it has become a thorn in the side of some people. The overseas expansion plan of Black Diamond mobile phones may not be too smooth. It's enough to win the mainland market, so it's just right to arrange another company."

  Nangong Tian wasn't a petty person. Seeing that he was obviously prepared, she didn't say more, but asked:

  "I'm going for a prenatal checkup tomorrow, will you come with me? I didn't prepare specially before, what if I ate something I shouldn't have, or drank something I shouldn't have, and the baby has a problem? I'll be a little nervous."

  Su Yehao replied, "How could I be so unlucky? I'll go with you."

  While talking, he continued to browse the posts.

  Sure enough, someone dug up old accounts, mentioning that they were happy for nothing last time.

  There were always some people who were busy pouring cold water when others stood up, and then enjoyed the benefits that others had fought for, as if it was a matter of course.

  Having seen a lot, Su Yehao never imagined others to be too good, so he felt that it was normal to encounter this kind of guy.

  Rather than getting thanks from others, Su Yehao just wanted to accomplish his own things. As for what others thought, it wasn't that important in reality, and it had no impact on his life.

  Jiang Yu participated in a company party, and the atmosphere was good, so she drank a few more glasses.

  When she came back, she brought supper, including fried crab and lamb chops. Su Yehao wasn't too hungry, but he could eat a little. During this time, he asked Jiang Yu, "How many Tianyu Cinemas have been opened? We still have a movie starring Stephen Chow hidden. When will the mainland market be bigger, we can release it to make some money."

  Covering her mouth and hiccupping with a red face, Jiang Yu said to him:

  "More than 520 have been opened, maybe even more. Nangong is in charge of this, but she's been busy taking care of herself and has no time to manage these things."

  Su Yehao nodded: "It's still a little less, let's wait until we have a thousand."

  Jiang Yu, who had already seen the movie, wasn't in a hurry to release it, and only said:

  "The growth rate of the mainland's box office is very fast, especially young people, who are gradually developing the habit of going to the cinema. It's not too late to wait another three or five years. Your daughter won an award at school today. She originally wanted to go out to eat and celebrate with you, but unfortunately you were too busy to spend time with her."

  Su Yehao recalled for a moment, and then remembered that there seemed to be a dance competition at school today. Although he had completely forgotten about it, he didn't show it, but nodded and said, "I remember, I prepared a gift in advance, and I'll send it to her first thing tomorrow morning."

  After speaking.

  He took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Linda Yun, asking her to buy a toy that girls like tomorrow morning. He would still be his good daughter's good daddy.
