Legend of Xiangjiang Tycoon - Chapter 499
The reception room of the Rong family villa was heavily guarded at this time, and a meeting involving the development of Shanghai began.
This includes the first and second leaders in Shanghai, the old man of the Rong family, and Li Zhiwen.
At this time, the top and second leaders in Shanghai were very excited. Li Zhiwen’s wealth when he bought the house had already attracted the two, so they attached great importance to this meeting.
“The three of you also know that Shanghai is a big city with a population of tens of millions, and there are too many people relying on Shanghai to come to eat.”
“But now Shanghai’s economic structure is dominated by heavy industry and labor-intensive light industry.”
“Light industry is only textiles, bicycles, etc., as long as there is technology elsewhere, it can be replaced at any time.”
“And now the mainland is developing on a large scale, so the economic structure of Shanghai must also develop in a planned way.” Li Zhiwen said.
“What does Mr. Li want to say about the development?” the old man asked.
In such formal occasions, the name of the Rong elders is very formal.
“In the auto industry, although there are few cars in the mainland today, it does not prevent Shanghai from making cars.”
“I can set up a joint venture with Shanghai and put some of the processes in my European car company in this joint venture.”
“And after the car is successfully manufactured, the car can be exported again, so that it can just earn foreign exchange.” Li Zhiwen said.
“Mr. Li, this is indeed a good direction, but will it not affect Mr. Li’s situation in Hong Kong?” asked the leader.
Hearing the words of the leader, Li Zhiwen felt a burst of warmth in his heart.
“Don’t worry about this, although it is really difficult to deal with the domestic industry in the UK because of the Hong Kong crisis.”
“However, if Shanghai is willing to promote development, I can invest in the acquisition of a German car manufacturing company, or a French car manufacturing company, and use this company to cooperate with Shanghai.”
“I also ask for your understanding. At present, it is really not suitable for the British-owned auto industry to cooperate with the mainland.”
“Although from the current international auto industry, British cars and American cars are well-known in the world, and Japanese cars are close behind, but at present, other countries will be promoted first. When the time is right, I will reach a cooperation between British cars and the mainland.” Li Zhiwen says
Li Zhiwen is thinking of acquiring German Volkswagen or French Citroen.
At this time, Volkswagen was not well-known internationally, and its craftsmanship was not among the top few.
Later generations of Volkswagen became popular in China, and it was Volkswagen who first cooperated with China.
Second, it is also because a lot of the British auto manufacturing industry is divided up by Volkswagen, which creates conditions for Volkswagen’s leapfrog development.
As for Citroen, it was criticized for its three-cylinder engine in later generations, but in this case, the technology is always more advanced than that in China.
Of course, Li Zhiwen is not for charity. Li Zhiwen has the intention to improve domestic technology, but more importantly, it is to get money.
Today’s shipping industry is clumsy, the cost of shipping has been greatly reduced, and the cost of domestic workers is low, which is definitely much cheaper than domestically produced cars.
“Then I will express my opinion. I support this cooperation. After all, it can improve our technology, cultivate skilled workers for us, and earn foreign exchange. It is a development direction that does not exist, but we need to report, after all, you know This kind of big thing is not something we can call the shots.” The leader said sincerely.
“Of course, this is a must!” Li Zhiwen said.
“But if the above agrees, where is Mr. Li going to build the factory?” the second-in-command asked.
“Lujiazui!” Li Zhiwen said.
“Lujiazui?” asked the old man of the Rong clan.
“Yes, Lujiazui, the land there is cheap, and building a factory can save a lot of money.” Li Zhiwen said.
“Mr. Li doesn’t need to worry if he considers the land issue. Since it’s a cooperation, you know our conditions, and we really can’t provide much financial support. The only thing we can provide is policy support and land, etc. We can use These are the shares.” The second-in-command said.
“I understand, in fact, the reason why I chose Lujiazui for a deeper level is that if Shanghai wants to develop, it is more necessary to develop Pudong when Puxi is already crowded.”
“After all, Shanghai today is like Hong Kong. Hong Kong Island and Kowloon are already overcrowded, so Hong Kong’s development direction can only be the New Territories.”
“In Shanghai, Puxi is already overcrowded, so the development of Pudong will be the next development direction.”
“And Lujiazui is a very interesting place. It is located on the bank of the Huangpu River and is surrounded by water on both sides. The west side is across the river from the Bund International Architecture Expo City, and the scenery is pleasant.”
“It’s a very suitable place to develop a high-end residential area.”
“But since I’ve seen the City of London and Manhattan in New York, I’ve thrown away my previous ideas.”
“Shanghai is a big city with a population of more than 10 million, but it does not have its own financial center.”
“As an international city, London, New York, etc. have one thing in common, that is, they are the financial centers of their respective countries. All foreigners will think of these two cities when they mention their respective financial centers.”
“And today’s Shanghai has the foundation of the previous financial center, so it is very suitable as a domestic financial center.”
“Of course it’s a little too early for me to say this, but I believe Shanghai will take this step sooner or later.”
“As for the Lujiazui stock market, I chose the address of the financial center in Shanghai.”
“Although I know, there is a saying that I would rather have a bed in Puxi than a house in Pudong.”
“But I believe that with the establishment of the car factory, it can gradually accumulate popularity. When the mainland decides to develop Pudong, I am willing to start building Lujiazui. As for the car factory, it can be relocated outwards.”
What Li Zhiwen said was very sincere. At this stage of Li Zhiwen, he did not have to worry about food and clothing. Money was just a number. Li Zhiwen wanted to do something to make his country better.
Building a joint venture with Shanghai to build an automobile factory is one thing, and developing Lujiazui is another.
So Li Zhiwen didn’t hide it this time, and said it directly.
The first and second leaders also fell into contemplation because of Li Zhiwen’s words.
In fact, for them, it doesn’t matter where the factory is built, as long as it is within the scope of Shanghai, and as long as Hong Kong capital invests in Shanghai.
No matter it is Lujiazui or anywhere, as long as Li Zhiwen says it, as long as the above agrees, both of them will do it.
But now Li Zhiwen’s remarks have left them at a loss.
After all, although Shanghai is open-minded today, it is still in the mainland, and the word finance is too far away.
So the two can only say that they should report the situation first, and then inform Li Zhiwen of the situation.
Of course, Li Zhiwen raised his hands in agreement. This kind of thing cannot be rushed.
The first and second leaders in Shanghai came to Rong’s house and called the capital to report.
But Li Zhiwen didn’t expect that his remarks made the capital discuss for a night.
After the two left, the old man from the Rong family sighed and said, “Awen, I thought it was just an ordinary investment. Who would have thought you made such a big deal.”
The old man of the Rong clan is still very keen, so he knows the meaning of Li Zhiwen’s words.
“Uncle, in fact, I can open some garment factories, plastic flower factories, etc., like other Hong Kong capital in Pengcheng, and then export to the world through Hong Kong.”
“But that doesn’t help the country much, except to accumulate a little bit of poor foreign exchange.”
“And I have a lot of money myself, why not do it.”
“But I really want this country to become prosperous and strong, so my heart is a little big!” Li Zhiwen said.
“I understand, in fact, I heard about your deeds from my family, Zhijian!” said the old man.
“How?” Li Zhiwen said with a smile.
“He evaluated you as a contradictory person,” the old man said.
Li Zhiwen understood the meaning of this contradiction, so he said: “Hong Kong has too many restrictions, I can’t follow the crowd, and I can’t stand out from the crowd.”
“So I can only please both sides, otherwise my enemies are not only ghosts.”
When the old man heard Li Zhiwen’s words, he didn’t speak for a long time.
And Li Zhiwen continued: “Uncle, I’m going to leave Shanghai tomorrow.”
“So soon, aren’t you waiting for the news?” the old man said in surprise.
“No, there is something in the beautiful country waiting for me to deal with.”
“And no matter what the news is, it can’t stop me. I will still buy Volkswagen or Citroen, because the development of the company requires me to do so.” Li Zhiwen said.
“Okay, then I’ll give them a call!” said the old man.
“No, I’ve given them too many problems, and they’re probably still scratching their heads.”
“And my identity is really not good, so it’s better for me to leave quietly.” Li Zhiwen said.
“Indeed!” said the old man.
Then Li Zhiwen took out two cheques from his pocket and handed them to the old man: “Uncle, these are two Citibank cheques. You should have a channel for how to pay them.”
“The five million dollars I donated for Shanghai is considered to be doing something for Shanghai.”
“As for the 10 million US dollars, I hope that the Rong family can be used to set up a bursary. Students from Shanghai are welcome to study in Hong Kong.”
“Of course, if there are talents from Shanghai who are willing to venture outside, they can also use the bursary to help. I covet talents from the Academy of Fine Arts!” Li Zhiwen said with a smile.
The animations and comics in Shanghai are very good at this stage.
In the past life, these talents were poached by Japan, and now Li Zhiwen is here, how can these talents be lost abroad.
“Awen, you are a big spender, this is a large amount of foreign exchange, and you don’t have a reputation. Our Rong Clan has a good reputation.” The old man said.
“There’s no way, I’m not forced to help, otherwise, there’s nothing to do with you, Uncle!” Li Zhiwen joked.
The old man said sternly: “Awen, don’t worry, the people of the motherland will not forget you.”
“What’s the matter, I also have a strong motherland, so that we wanderers can straighten their backs.” Li Zhiwen said.
“There will be such a day!” said the old man.
Li Zhiwen thinks that both Shanghai and Beijing have invested now, so he should visit his hometown next time, and he doesn’t know what the situation in his hometown is like at this time.
At the Hongqiao International Airport in Shanghai, Li Zhiwen said goodbye to Li Zhiwen.
When Liu Xiaoli went to Beautiful Country, she brought a large group of logistics team, how could Li Jue only have one person now.
Li Zhiwen is also a logistics team this time, but it is not the same flight as Li Zhiwen.
The logistics team had already lived in the Eros Garden two days ago, and when Li Zhiwen left this time, Li Jue would also live in the Eros Garden directly, and would not go to the Rong’s Villa again.
After all, Li Zhiwen has already left, so it is not suitable for a pregnant woman to live in Rong’s house.
“Brother Wen, you have to take good care of yourself, and remember that you are now the father of two children, so take care of yourself.” Li Jue said.
“I know, what’s there to worry about with this large group of people following me.” Li Zhiwen said.
“Then take care of yourself!” Li Jue said.
“I see!” Li Zhiwen said.
“Say hello to Ali on my behalf!” Li Jue whispered.
Li Jue obviously knows where Li Zhiwen is going now. After all, according to the day, Liu Xiaoli’s child is about to be born.
As former comrades-in-arms, the two have skin-to-skin relationship, so the natural relationship is not bad.
“Okay!” Li Zhiwen said.
Li Zhiwen did not deny that, there was no need for that, Li Jue obviously knew Li Zhiwen’s destination.
“Hey, I made these two peace blessings by myself. You bring them with you. One is for you, bless you in peace, and the other is for Ali’s child, bless her growing up healthily.” Juice took out two Ping An Fu and handed it to Li Zhiwen.
Li Zhiwen picked up the Ping An Fu handed over by Li Juice and looked at it for a long time.
Li Jue thought that Li Zhiwen thought it was not good-looking, and said, “You dare to ignore me because you are not good-looking!”
“Okay, I’ll take it with me!” Li Zhiwen said.
“That’s about it!” Li Jue said.
“I’m about to board the plane. You have to take good care of yourself during this time. I’ll come to see you when I have time.” Li Zhiwen said.
“Okay!” Li Jue said softly.
Li Zhiwen turned his head and walked into the airport. Like the last time he came, he still went to Tokyo first, and then transferred from Tokyo to Los Angeles.
Although the flight from Shanghai to Los Angeles has now been opened~www.mtlnovel.com~ But Li Zhiwen decided to transfer from Tokyo for the sake of safety.
The plane went straight to the sky, and Li Zhiwen left Shanghai.
However, the old man from the Rong family arrived at the airport when Li Zhiwen was boarding the plane, and he was accompanied by the top leaders in Shanghai.
“Where is Awen?” the old man of the Rong clan asked Li Ju.
“Have already left!” Li Jue replied.
Rong Shi sighed, but it was still too late.
Rong went to see the leader early this morning and handed Li Zhiwen a check for $15 million.
This man couldn’t sit still any longer, and took the old man from the Rong family to the airport to see Li Zhiwen off.
After all, people who give so much money without asking for anything in return should not be sent to the airport.
Of course, Li Zhiwen’s proposal is still under discussion. After all, it involves planning issues and cannot be underestimated.
