Chapter 52 No way! Renting half a floor of an office building costs five million!
"Mr. Su wants to rent an office space in the Mao Building?" Emma asked curiously.
"Well~ I recently opened an investment company and I just happened to be in need of an office space. I came here today to see if there is a suitable place!"
Emma pondered for a moment and said tentatively: "Why don't we let Xiao Li go and see if there is anyone suitable. She is very capable in this area!"
Su Chen nodded when he heard this. He knew that Emma was paving the way for Secretary Li and wanted to demonstrate her abilities through this matter.
Su Chen also agreed with this matter. After all, this was what he had planned from the beginning.
I also planned to let Secretary Li handle the subsequent decoration and material procurement.
Just be a boss who makes the final decision!
Secretary Li was very efficient in handing over the work, and it took less than half an hour to complete the handover!
"Mr. Su, President!" Secretary Li appeared at the door of Emma's office holding a cardboard box.
Su Chen waved at her, "Secretary Li, there is something I need you to do. It would be best if it can be finalized today."
"Mr. Su, what's going on?"
Su Chen then repeated what he had said to Emma before.
After listening to this, Secretary Li said confidently: "Mr. Su, please rest assured, I promise to get things done!"
"Well, go now. Call me when things are confirmed!"
"Okay, Mr. Su!"
After Secretary Li left, Su Chen also said goodbye. After all, Emma had no concentration to work if he stayed here.
After Su Chen came out, he just found a cafe near the Jinmao Tower.
I don’t know if it’s because of the few times he drank coffee on the Bund before, but Su Chen found that he has been liking drinking coffee recently.
"Buzz buzz~"
Just as I was enjoying a moment of leisure, the phone on the desk rang.
I took a quick glance and found that it was Sicong calling, so I reached out and took the phone.
"Hey~ Why did Young Master Wang think of calling me? You must have come out of the land of comfort!" Su Chen said jokingly.
Ever since the last time they had a drink together, they have been talking more casually.
"Who is in the land of gentleness? You don't even have a demon?"
Su Chen frowned frivolously, it seemed that Sicong was looking for him for something.
"I came back a long time ago. I'm drinking coffee at IFC now. What's up? Is there anything wrong?"
"Nothing much, there's just a luxury car show tomorrow, I was wondering if you're interested in going to see it!"
"Luxury car show?" Su Chen also became interested after hearing this. He was already considering buying a more business-like car, like a Rolls-Royce or Bentley. He couldn't always drive an Aston Martin!
Su Chen raised his lips slightly, showing a wicked smile and said: "Okay~ Let's go together tomorrow, you can pick me up then!"
"Come to pick you up? Damn, you think I'm your driver!"
"Just tell me whether you are coming or not!" Su Chen seemed to be determined to win.
"Okay, okay, okay~ You are the eldest brother. I'll wait for you in the garage at nine o'clock tomorrow morning!" Si Cong hung up the phone directly after saying this, fearing that if he continued talking, Su Chen would want to fight with him face to face!
Looking at the hung up phone, Su Chen smiled happily.

"58th floor? OK, I got it, I'll be right there!"
Secretary Li called just now and said that she had looked at several commercial floors with the property management of Jinmao Tower and finally saw a good one. It’s just that the area is a bit large, at 1500 square meters, and it’s already been renovated. She called to ask for your advice.
Soon Su Chen took the elevator to the 58th floor. As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he saw Secretary Li and a middle-aged man standing not far away. "Mr. Su!" Secretary Li hurried over to Su Chen when he saw him coming out of the elevator.
Su Chen nodded and looked at the middle-aged man.
"Hello Mr. Su, I am Chen Ming, the property manager of Jinmao Tower!" Chen Ming said respectfully.
As the property manager of Jinmao Tower, he has great power and absolute say in rent matters. He can be said to be a guest of honor for many companies.
You should know that the rent of Jinmao Tower is based on daily units. If the rent per square meter is two yuan less, 1500 square meters would be yuan, yuan a month, and million yuan a year!
Maybe just a few simple words from your property manager can save you millions in extra expenses a year.
"Manager Chen, thank you for bothering you and asking you to make this trip in person!" Su Chen smiled and stretched out his right hand.
Seeing this, Chen Ming quickly stretched out his hands and shook hands with Su Chen, "No trouble, no trouble, it's my duty to serve Mr. Su!"
Chen Ming had no idea about Su Chen's background, but he knew Secretary Li very well. As the secretary of the president of the Luwei Group's Shanghai headquarters, he had to be careful with this identity alone.
If I fail to provide adequate service and whisper something bad into the president's ear, I will be in big trouble. Hey, who can blame the Luwei Group for being so awesome?
Anyone who can be treated with such respect by this master must be of extraordinary status.
"Let's go check out the office first!"
"Mr. Su, please come this way!" Chen Ming bent over and made a gesture of invitation with his right hand in the air.
If this scene was seen by other bosses of rented office buildings, they would definitely shout “WTF!”
One floor of Jinmao Tower is about 2700 square meters, and it is divided into two parts, one with 1200 square meters and the other with 1500 square meters!
The smaller business has been rented out to a company specializing in foreign trade and export business.
The entire business has been renovated and is fully equipped with tables and chairs, so you can come in and work directly.
The entire business is roughly divided into four areas: office area, executive area, rest area and sports area!
After a tour, Su Chen was quite satisfied, especially the boss's office, which overlooked the entire Lujiazui and Huangpu River.
"Manager Chen, how much is the rent here?"
"Mr. Su, the rent of Jinmao Tower is basically 12 yuan/day/square meter, but if you rent it, Mr. Su, it only costs 9 yuan/day/square meter!" Chen Ming looked at Secretary Li beside him, gritted his teeth, and directly gave the lowest price.
Upon hearing this, Su Chen looked at Chen Ming and then at Secretary Li. He now understood why Emma had taken the initiative to recommend Secretary Li to look at business. It turned out that Emma had thought of this problem from the beginning.
By leveraging the reputation of the Luwei Group, we can put pressure on the property management of the Jinmao Tower and achieve the goal of reducing rent.
It turns out that someone who can become the president of LVMH Greater China has a mind that goes further than others.
Su Chen also couldn't help but sigh, it's really good to have both background and strength!
"Okay, no problem, just sign the contract!"
Following Chen Ming to the property office, the signing procedure was quite simple.
Su Chen directly signed a three-year contract, with rent paid annually, and Chen Ming also gave him an additional three months of free rent according to the regulations of the office building.
The annual rent cost Su Chen nearly five million, which made him sigh that this office building was really profitable.
After finishing all this, Su Chen handed over the company's affairs to Secretary Li, asking her to oversee the decoration and purchase some office supplies.
