Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

…

The banquet is in the form of a buffet.

From Kobe beef, fugu, caviar, to Thai massaman curry, Spanish paella, Thai green papaya salad - the world's famous delicacies, all in the banquet.

Drinks range from Maotai, vodka, golden ale, rum (to avoid unnecessary trouble, these spirits are limited.), to red wine, sake, and champagne.

Xu Cun said something innocuous according to the script, and the banquet officially started.

After the banquet started, Xu Cun first went to the place where the relatives and friends brought by the girls gathered, and had a conversation with the relatives and friends brought by the girls. The relatives and friends brought by the daughter had a glass of wine, and after giving the daughters enough face, they went to the main table.

When Xu Cun arrived at the main table.

Ke Zaishuo, the chief representative of the Chinese side of the Sino-British Joint Liaison Group, was fighting with Wei Yixin, the chief representative of the British side of the Sino-British Joint Liaison Group. Seeing Xu Cun approaching their table, Ke Zaishuo smiled and said: "Sir , I have never had a chance to congratulate you. On the matter of HSBC and Standard Chartered Bank's right to issue banknotes, the British liaison team led by you has performed extremely well. I personally think that this is the biggest victory for the British side so far. .”

As soon as Ke Zaishuo finished speaking, Wei Yixin's originally smiling face suddenly sank—on the negotiating table, the British side indeed won a big victory, but combined with the fact that Standard Chartered Bank was controlled by Xu Cun, the British side was It was a disastrous failure. For Wilson, the negotiation that allowed Standard Chartered Bank to obtain the right to issue banknotes can be regarded as the biggest failure in his diplomatic career. When Ke Zaishuo mentioned this matter, it's no wonder Wei Yixin's face is so good!

While Ke Zaishuo and Wei Yixin were fighting each other, Bao Yugang, Li Jiacheng, Guo Desheng, He Hongle, Huo Yingdong, Lin Baixin, Lee Shau Kee, Zheng Yutong, Xu Shixun and other nine Hong Kong rich men were frequently meeting with the chairman of the board of directors of Citibank John. Reid, Masakazu Iwasaki, the contemporary patriarch of the Iwasaki family of the Mitsubishi Group holding family, Yumichi Haneda, chairman of Futakikai, the overall leadership organization of Mitsui Bank, Pierre Laliberte, chairman of the board of directors of Royal Bank of Canada, and chairman of the board of directors of ANZ Bank Rick Eder, Howard Carmichael, chairman of the board of directors of Lloyds Bank of the United Kingdom, and other real power holders of major banks communicated-these nine Xiangjiang rich men wanted to take this opportunity to make friends with the real power holders of these big banks.

As for the benefits of making friends with the real power holders of these big banks, it goes without saying, because there are too many!

While the nine rich men in Xiangjiang are trying to make friends with the real power holders of the major banks, Ji Pengfei and Li Hao, a Shenzhen police officer brought by Ji Pengfei, are also trying to make friends with Bao Yugang, Li Jiacheng, Guo Desheng, He Hongle, Huo Yingdong, Lin Baixin, Lee Shau Kee, Cheng Yutong, Xu Shixun and other nine richest people in Xiangjiang had a talk.

Li Hao is the Shenzhen Municipal Commissioner who has just taken office. He naturally wants to make a career during his term of office, so he hopes to attract some investment for the Shekou Industrial Zone.

As a reformist, Ji Pengfei naturally supported Li Hao.

It is precisely because of this that Ji Pengfei brought Li Hao to Xu Cun's banquet.

The industry in Shekou in the early years was really not suitable for investment and construction of factories. At that time, the Shekou industrial zone was just a beach and barren hills, with potholes on the road, and there were no toilets or washing water.

After several years of infrastructure construction, the current Shekou Industrial Factory is indeed much better-the current Shekou Industrial Zone has roads extending in all directions, and there are also docks with a capacity of 10,000 tons. Even the helicopter airport is open for use, and the telecommunications , water supply, power supply, flood control, gas supply and sewage treatment have all begun to take shape, and a modern industrial new city has risen at the forefront of the South China Sea.

It is precisely because of this confidence that Li Hao dared to invest in Xiangjiang.

pity--

This is just Li Hao's wishful thinking.

The business community in Xiangjiang has already reached a consensus that the current Shekou Industrial Zone is not suitable for investment and construction of factories.

Why is there such a consensus in the business circles of Xiangjiang?

Those who have a little understanding of the economy will know that in any area with some prospects, its housing prices must be rising steadily. In other words, the real estate industry must be developed.

But the Shekou Industrial Zone is good, the housing price is actually lower than the construction cost, and it is still under the condition that the land is not priced - the first residential community in the Shekou Industrial Zone is Shuiwantou Community. Shuiwantou community is also called "Zhongnanhai" by Shekou people. A total of more than 100 houses were built in eight buildings. The construction cost was about 700 yuan per square meter, not including the land price, but the result was that the house was sold for less than 700 yuan per square meter.

Add to that the current troubling political environment on the mainland.

Who dares to invest in the Shekou Industrial Zone?

Therefore, except for the red-capped businessman Huo Yingdong, the other eight richest people in Xiangjiang did not take Li Hao or even Ji Pengfei's words very much.

After sitting next to Bush Jr., Xu Cun said with a smile: "Friends from afar are not allowed to leave today. I have a special program tonight."

As soon as Xu Cun's words came out of his mouth, Bush Jr. and the real power holders of the major banks all smiled, and then congratulated Xu Cun on his housewarming!

After enjoying themselves for a while, Ji Pengfei toasted Xu Cun with a glass of wine, and then said: "A Cun, the Shekou Industrial Zone has begun to take shape, and Li Hao is a new official, do you have to support him?"

After looking at Li Hao who looked expectant, Xu Cun nodded and said, "This is a good thing, I must support it." After thinking for a while, Xu Cun stretched out a hand and said, "Well, I'll send someone to visit the Shekou Industrial Zone later. Let me know the location of the factory, if there is no problem, I will invest five years in the Shekou Industrial Zone..."

Li Hao, who thought that Xu Cun had invested 50 million Hong Kong dollars like Huo Yingdong, quickly looked at Ji Pengfei——Ji Pengfei and Li Hao had known for a long time that Xu Cun, who was fighting the "patriotic banner", would definitely invest and build a factory in Shekou Industrial Zone like Huo Yingdong Yes, but their expectations for the richest man Xu Cun are much higher than Huo Yingdong. They expect Xu Cun to invest hundreds of millions or even hundreds of millions of funds in the Shekou Industrial Zone, instead of a mere 50 million.

Ji Pengfei interrupted Xu Cun and said, "A Cun, Lao Huo's assets are less than one percent of yours, and he still invested 50 million Hong Kong dollars in the Shekou Industrial Zone..."

Ji Pengfei didn't say the latter words, but the meaning was obvious - Huo Yingdong had 50 million Hong Kong dollars, and you, the richest Chinese man, only invested a mere 50 million Hong Kong dollars in the Shekou Industrial Zone?

Xu Cun smiled and said, "Mr. Ji, you've already opened your mouth. Can I just invest 50 million Hong Kong dollars in the Shekou Industrial Zone?"

Hearing what Xu Cun said, Li Hao was immediately overjoyed—the five fingers of Xu Cun, since they were not 50 million, they must be 500 million. This is not a small investment!

Ji Pengfei smiled and said, "It's not too bad, and it's not in vain that I've been helping you all the time. Hmm...then when will your investment of 500 million Hong Kong dollars be in place?"

Xu Cun smiled and said: "Mr. Ji, you are always mistaken. I said 5 billion Hong Kong dollars, not 500 million Hong Kong dollars."
