Best friend turned enemy? Marrying the villain, if she runs, I'll run too.

When Meng Tang and Li Su woke up the next day, the office building had already been secured.

The landlord of the office building in the China World Trade Center that they initially liked contacted the real estate agent, saying he was willing to rent it out for 5,000 yuan per month.

Meng Tang and the others' first reaction was that the landlord either didn't sleep well last night or had his brain caught in a door.

It's worth noting that the original rental price for this office building was 25,000.

In just one night, not only did they agree to lower their prices, but they also reduced them to a level comparable to suburban office buildings.

The agent explained that the landlord had become rich overnight by winning the lottery, so he didn't have many demands regarding the rent. Moreover, seeing that Meng Tang and the others had a very good attitude, he was willing to rent to them at the lowest possible price.

Meng Tang was initially skeptical, but after arriving at the site and exchanging only a few words, she found that the other party had already prepared the contract and signed it on the spot.

"Thank you so much for renting our office building to us, but I don't think it was you who came over yesterday?"

The other party stated, "That's my dad, I'm his son. Don't worry, I have the right to dispose of this office building."

Meng Tang was naturally happy to be able to rent it at the lowest price, so she just asked casually without suspecting anything.

Just as the contract was signed, someone suddenly peeked in from the doorway.

"Does your company need to rent another property?"

Meng Tang was puzzled. In this day and age, are there still landlords who come to your door to promote their houses?

"I'm sorry, we've already found an office building."

To everyone's surprise, the other party said, "The office building I want to rent is right above yours. I see your company is a film and television company, right? If you only rent this one unit, the area might not be enough. If you include the upstairs area..."

"We can combine the two floors, wouldn't that make it more spacious and convenient? Besides, my rent isn't expensive. You signed a contract for five thousand with him, right? I'll give you a 50% discount, two thousand five, how about that?"

Meng Tang and Li Su: "..."

Has the world gone mad? When did office space in the China World Trade Center become so cheap?

Could these two floors be the legendary haunted building? Otherwise, how could the rent in the China World Trade Center, where land is so valuable, be so cheap?

"Ladies, please rest assured, there is absolutely no problem with this office building. It's just that I find it appealing to you both, and I'm not short of money, so I thought I'd rent it out if I could. Do you still have any concerns about the price?"

Who cares about haunted buildings or not, we might as well take advantage of this bargain!

"No problem, of course no problem!"

Then, as if they had been prepared all along, the other party pulled out three copies of the contract.

"If both parties have no problems, shall we sign the contract?"

So, after signing the two contracts, I paid a year's rent in one go, which was less than 100,000 yuan. It was a huge profit.

What's even more profitable is that the office supplies left behind by the previous company in both office buildings are all in very good condition.

According to the landlord, the previous company went bankrupt and the boss ran away overnight, so all the office equipment, such as tables, chairs, and even computers, were left behind.

They only need to pay a small price to buy all of these devices.

As a result, everything, from the office building to the equipment, was taken care of in one go in half a day, saving Meng Tang and her team a lot of time and energy.

Tong Tong was also very effective in recruitment, and almost all the positions in the business and functional departments were filled.

In the end, Meng Tang and Li Su were in complete agreement and named the company "Little Crispy Candy Film and Television Co., Ltd."

This is exactly the same name as the film and television company they run in real life, taken from the homophone of one character from each of their names.

Easy to remember and pleasant to hear, at the moment the company was founded, Meng Tang and Li Su both had the illusion that they were in reality, not in a novel world.

Because the company is newly established, it lacks both reputation and funds.

Therefore, Meng Tang decided to seize the opportunity and start with the most popular short dramas at the moment.

Short dramas have short shooting cycles, fast online release speeds, and quick returns.

After accumulating initial capital, Meng Tang gradually moves on to serious dramas. In this regard, Meng Tang is quite experienced.

While Meng Tang's business was booming, Ruifeng Group encountered problems.

The bidding results for the Beihai Bay project have been released, and to everyone's surprise, Best Inc. was the winning bidder.

Fu Jishu had been keeping a close eye on this project. As a key project for the group over the past three years, it was originally a sure thing for Ruifeng Group.

Although Best Inc. suddenly joined the bidding process after Fu Jishu withdrew from the project.

But Fu Zhanpeng and his team didn't take Best Inc. seriously at all. After all, Ruifeng Group had been eyeing this project for a long time and had spent a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources on it.

But who could have imagined that what seemed like a sure thing would end up being defeated by Best Inc., which intercepted the deal halfway through?

Upon learning of this result, Madam Fu was so angry that she almost fainted.

He called Fu Zhanpeng and the others over and gave them a thorough dressing-down.

"The Beihai Bay Project Group invested so much manpower, material resources, and financial resources; it should have been a sure thing. How did it end up being snatched away by Best Logistics Group?"

Fu Shaohui said, "Mom, you should ask my second brother about the Beihai Bay project. I've never been involved in this project; my second brother has been handling everything. I really don't know the specifics."

Although Fu Shaohui wasn't particularly skilled in finance, his greatest asset was his self-awareness.

Knowing he wasn't particularly capable, he had no objection to having his son, Fu Jishu, take over the business.

Now that Fu Jishu has stormed off in a huff, Fu Shaohui, while disapproving of his association with the Song family, also knows that he, as a father, is not very capable.

After returning to the group, he only had to do some simple tasks, unlike Fu Zhanpeng and the others.

In order to demonstrate their abilities and deliver results to satisfy Madam Fu, Fu Zhanpeng and his team set their sights on the Beihai Bay project as soon as they arrived.

Because Fu Jishu had made ample preparations beforehand, Fu Zhanpeng had an inexplicable confidence in the project after taking over, feeling that it was a sure thing.

But to everyone's surprise, it dealt him a heavy blow at the crucial moment.

Fu Zhanpeng tried to find an excuse for himself: "Mom, Ji Shu was in charge of this project before. I only took over after he left."

“I continued to do what Jishu had done before, but who knew that Best Inc. would intercept me halfway through, which I find very puzzling.”

Madam Fu slammed her hand on the table in annoyance. "What? Ji Shu is no longer with the company, and the Beihai Bay project has failed. You still have the nerve to blame him?"

“If Jishu were still in the group, how could Baishi have had the chance to snatch the job halfway? It was a sure thing, but you still managed to mess it up. It’s my fault. I overestimated your abilities. Neither of you brothers are capable of sitting in this position!”
