Chapter 177 Handwritten Proposal
Charles’ statement immediately sent an uproar across the room.
That meant a total of five companies would be able to secure the bidding.
However, there were at least four to five hundred companies in the hall, and only five companies among them would be able to secure the project.
“Rest assured. We will not be favoring any connections. The proposal is all we would consider,” Kingsley assured everyone.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard his words.
There’s no way anyone can use their connections in Lord Campbell’s project. Besides, there is no need to organize a bidding conference if someone is able to utilize their connections and secure the project. Lord Campbell will just give it to them in private.
“The bidding process shall now begin. Please submit your bidding proposals and information,” Kingsley said.
Due to Kingsley’s reputation, everyone was acting in an orderly manner when each representative submitted their proposals.
There was no trace of emotion on Kingsley’s face as he read through the proposals. Everyone in the hall was waiting anxiously for the verdict.
Kingsley finally finished reading through all the proposals after a few hours and said, “I have skimmed through all the proposals briefly. There are over a hundred proposals, and thirty-six among them have a market value above tens of billions. These thirty-six companies are considered to be the more competent ones.”
Jennifer’s heart sank as she was at a severe disadvantage compared to the other companies.
Her company was like an empty shell, and its liquidity was less than five million.
Kingsley picked up a proposal and continued, “Among the thirty-six companies, there are only ten companies who have related work experience. This is the proposal from the Wilson Group. The representative of the company, please step onto the stage.”
Nigel walked up the stage.
“Hello, Mr. Kingsley,” Nigel greeted him.
“I don’t like your proposal,” Kingsley said. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Nigel’s expression changed when he heard that.
He was feeling very confident about his proposal before the bidding conference even began, so he couldn’t believe that Kingsley didn’t like his proposal.
“Mr. Kingsley, may I know the reason?” Nigel asked Kingsley as he looked at him.
“These apply better in theory than in practice. You wish to develop the real estate and industrial parks, but have you considered anything about the infrastructure development? The land needs to be excavated in rock and soil, so how do you plan to find the materials? Even if you found them, how are you going to transport them to the site?” Kingsley questioned him.
“I can just subcontract it to another company. These are the problems that they have to worry about,” Nigel said.
Isn’t this how the construction industry works? Just subcontract it to a third party after securing the bid.
“Thus, I will not be choosing the Wilson Group. Please leave the stage,” Kingsley said coldly as he threw the proposal to the ground.
Nigel’s face darkened, but he didn’t dare to lose his temper, so he turned to leave.
Kingsley didn’t care about Nigel’s feelings at all. He picked up another proposal and said, “This company is a new company, and it doesn’t have a lot of assets. However, I like their bidding document and proposal a lot.”
The proposal was projected on the large screen, and everyone could see the graceful handwriting on the proposal.
“This company was initially a pharmaceutical company and a shell company. However, I would like everyone to take a look at what this company has done. The company has managed to set up a steel structure department and a transportation company. Moreover, hundreds of large excavators have been ordered, and even a barren mountain has been reserved to be used as a quarry. She has done everything to prepare for the land reclamation project. I would like to know if any companies in attendance also came up with such detailed preparations,” Kingsley said.
Jennifer’s whole body trembled in excitement because she was the one who made the proposal. The whole proposal was at least twenty thousand words, and it was all handwritten.
The proposal described in detail the complete sequence of the process from the initial stage of excavation to the later stage of reclamation.
Everyone’s faces became grim as Kingsley flipped through the proposals on the screen because the proposal was finer than the one that was drafted by a professional architect.
“So, this will be the first company that secures the bid. It’s Jennard Construction. The representative of this company, please come onto the stage,” Kingsley said.
