Chapter 22: Chapter 22 Patient, You Have Misanthropy
"I know the answer to this question. The discovery of an ancient tomb under the construction site usually causes a real estate company to go bankrupt."
"????"
"What kind of logic is this? How can a real estate company go bankrupt when an ancient tomb was discovered during construction?"
"I'm dumbfounded. I need an answer too."
"Ten points for contestant number one. The appearance of an ancient tomb at a construction site can indeed make a real estate company bankrupt. It will still hurt them at their worst even if it doesn't go bankrupt."
"A lot of words; the above comment must be correct."
Immediately, this viewer, who claimed to work at the Cultural Relics Management Office, began explaining.
According to the Cultural Relics Management Law, construction must be halted immediately if an ancient tomb is discovered at a construction site.
They must also do their best to ensure the safety of the ancient tomb.
The construction party would also bear all the expenses required.
Secondly, during the excavation of the ancient tomb, control of the construction site must be handed over to the archaeological department.
The construction site would be shut down depending on the ancient tomb's excavation progress.
A year of excavation meant a year of all construction stopping.
Ten years of excavation meant ten years of stopping all work on that piece of land.
If the tomb were too big, the project would be cancelled.
The appearance of an ancient tomb was always an uncontrollable risk.
Also, the relevant departments would not refund construction and land purchase fees.
A construction company with a weaker financial position would declare bankruptcy if this occurred.
After reading the explanation, comments with "Kappa" appeared in the chat.
Looking at the pale-faced CEO Xu, Chen Yu continued,
"Dear patient, according to my psychological analysis, you are someone who believes in feng shui."
"Every time before any construction begins, you would ask a feng shui master to assist you in inspecting the land."
"After purchasing this plot of land, you sought the services of a feng shui master, as per usual."
"After looking at it, the feng shui master's expression changed drastically."
"He mentioned that there is a tomb buried below. Afterward, you followed his instructions and sent someone to dig a few holes, excavating a large pile of ancient funerary objects."
"At that point, you are well aware that this plot of land is essentially useless. Using the excuse of going abroad to treat your illness, you purposefully revealed to your friend that you intend to sell the land."
"Your friend was upfront with you. He immediately offered to buy the land from you for the original price."
"The person is the same as you, the owner of a real estate company."
"You were worried that the other party would see through you, so you didn't agree right away and only said that you would consider it."
"You came to my livestream and deliberately led me to play along with you."
"Once I suggest that you sell the land, you will have a sufficient excuse to do so."
The netizens instantly felt as if their intelligence had been forcefully thrown to the ground and rubbed against it.
Were all the rich this scary?
Ordinary people had one trick up their sleeve, but the rich had a hundred.
"If I were doing business with CEO Xu, I would be thanking him as I sold myself out."
"The bad tells us to be good, as they act on their evil deeds."
"CEO Xu, can you be someone decent?"
"I'm sure he got liver cancer because he did too many bad deeds."
"This is not a psychologist's livestream, but a high-end business course."
"If you believe this CEO's nonsense, you can't blame anyone else if you get scammed."
Most viewers watching the livestream were ordinary citizens who had never witnessed such trickery before.
They never met someone who didn't feel any psychological burden after lying to their friends.
Typical fake friends would just lie to you about something minor and mostly harmless.
As for CEO Xu, he just tried to scam his friend out of three billion yuan.
"CEO Xu, do you know what mental illness you have?"
Chen Yu asked.
"What?" CEO Xu, who was still in shock, replied blankly.
"You're suffering from Misanthropy, a symptom of depression."
"Misanthropy? Doctor Chen, you're exaggerating."
CEO Xu's face answered gloomily.
"I have been in business for decades and have seen all kinds of situations."
"Even when my company was on the verge of bankruptcy several times, I never thought of ending my life."
"Haha."
Chen Yu laughed coldly.
"Your group has faced bankruptcy three times, but you managed to survive all of them."
"But you won't be able to do the same thing this time."
"Yeah, your company is about to go bankrupt."
After hearing Chen Yu's words, CEO Xu was furious and reprimanded him for spouting nonsense!
"Even if there is an ancient tomb beneath the land I purchased, it will only have a minor impact on me. My group will not go bankrupt from this."
"What if something goes wrong with your overseas business and you can't inject funds back into the country in time?"
"Who exactly are you!"
CEO Xu stood up from his chair with a shocked expression.
"As you can see, I'm just an ordinary psychologist."
Chen Yu replied indifferently.
"Many years ago, you noticed that the domestic real estate market was showing signs of bursting."
"Therefore, you transferred funds to buy a ton of properties overseas in case of an emergency."
"Although you've transferred a large portion of your capital overseas, you did not give up on the domestic construction business."
"You buy land with high leverage, open it up for pre-sales quickly, and roll over this capital."
"You've been using this method for a long time; you're very comfortable with it."
"In the past two years, high-leverage purchases have been restricted, and the property market is not as hot as it was in the previous years."
"You can only use the rental income from your foreign properties to repay the bank loan."
"Only after your projects on hand are sold out will your capital return to normal."
"However, if the income from your foreign properties is insufficient or cut off, your entire business will collapse."
Chen Yu paused for a breath of air.
"Wonderful, it's really wonderful."
CEO Xu retracted the shock on his face and clapped for Chen Yu once again.
"I didn't expect Dr. Chen to be not only good at observing and investigating but also knowledgeable about the real estate business."
"My situation is indeed as you said. My capital chain is very tight."
"However, you are wrong about one thing."
"The properties I have overseas are earning well and can fully support the domestic banks' loan interest."
CEO Xu and Chen Yu's exchange of words stunned the viewers on the livestream.
What a quick plot twist!
Even the Racer God of Mount Haruna didn't go as fast as Chen Yu's plot.
"All screenwriters, come in and have a look. After watching Dr. Chen's livestream, I guarantee you will be bursting with inspiration."
"Everyone, place your bets quickly. Let's guess if CEO Xu will go bankrupt."
"Reported."
"It doesn't matter whether CEO Xu goes bankrupt or not; he's still richer than us."
"The fairest thing in the world is that everyone only has one life."
"A TV drama with this plot would be filmed for at least 100 episodes in Kimchi Nation, right?"
"How can 100 episodes be enough? They can casually shoot four or five episodes within just one meal."
It was already lunchtime, and the number of people watching the livestream increased rather than decreased, reaching an all-time high of 500,000 viewers.
CEO Xu's expression was full of confidence.
Chen Yu, on the other hand, had that profound appearance that no one could get enough of.
"Since you're so optimistic about the profits from your foreign properties, why did you fake your liver cancer?"
"You even found a foreign hospital and hired a medical team on a false pretense."
Chen Yu's words caused the chat's speed to go into nitro boost.
"Didn't you do all this to hide from the public, so you can personally go over to monitor the progress of your lawsuit and think of a way to sell those properties?"
CEO Xu felt as if he had been struck by lightning, staggering back to his chair.
