The project was to be publicly tendered, led by the city's Bureau of Education.
Although Shengshi Group had started out in industry years earlier, for the past decade, it had branched out into real estate and finance, achieving remarkable success in these sectors and securing its position as a dominant force.
This time, for the tender of the construction of more than thirty schools, Shengshi's construction affiliate had been determined to win, but unexpectedly, two other construction firms emerged, looking to compete with Shengshi for a share of the pie; Bai Xingzhi was naturally not pleased.
Originally, given Shengshi's financial strength, this tender was just a drop in the bucket, and winning it or not wouldn't make much of a difference. However, the more others coveted what Bai Xingzhi didn't care for, the more interested he became.
