Chapter 503: Cooperation again
"Haha, too."
Mai Guoji turned around and looked at Li Zhiyang who was shaking his head when he was looking at the scenery outside, and said with a smile. Li Zhiyang's expression did not look like a fake, and Mai Guoji, who had been in the mainland for a long time, knew the reality of mainlanders.
Although some people like to slap in the face and pretend to be fat, most people are quite real and don’t have so many hypocritical habits
The car drove very slowly, so that Mai Guoji could enjoy the scenery outside. Although it was winter now, there were dead branches and leaves outside, and there was nothing good to look at. However, the first time people who came here were still shocked by the grand spirit of this manor.
The car stopped in front of the main house, and Li Zhiyang took Mai Guoji out of the car. First, he took Mai Guoji and walked around his castle. The two of them walked slowly while talking about their recent situation.
Then Li Zhiyang asked the butler to take him and Mai Guoji to choose a room inside the building. Mai Guoji could come to attend his engagement ceremony from afar, which was quite a bit of face. How could he neglect others and let them live in a hotel outside?
Although that little expense is nothing to Mai Guoji, it is a big deal to be favorable.
Mai Guo basically came and wanted to be polite, but after Li Zhiyang insisted, he finally chose a room. Then Li Zhiyang arranged for someone to go to the hotel and took Mai Guoji's luggage over. From today on, Mai Guoji will stay here until his engagement ceremony ended.
He took Mai Guoji for a walk, and then Li Zhiyang took him back to the front building and came to the study room where he had been there for the morning. Li Zhiyang liked it very much, because although the decoration inside had such a kind of art, he was a very ordinary person himself, so there was no need to be pretentious.
"Haha, Li Sheng, your manor is really not built. It can be said to be the most luxurious and grandest house I have ever seen."
As soon as Mai Guoji and Li Zhiyang sat down, he began to be half-Hong Kong-style and half-Mandarin, and began to flatter Li Zhiyang's house.
"Haha, that's not my blow. My manor is definitely a big deal in the Hampton area."
Li Zhiyang was not polite at all and accepted all flatteries, but what he said was the truth. In the Hampton area, if his house was called second, no one would dare to be the first.
"By the way, Mr. Mai, how are your company doing recently? Fortunately, your family is safe, right?"
Li Zhiyang asked politely.
"Hey, we are also acquaintances, and I won't hide it from you. Since the outbreak of the financial crisis this year, it has been difficult to do business. Many of our businesses are gritting their teeth and holding back, and they have made a lot of money in many aspects. If we hadn't obtained the agency rights of your Haitian Qiangshen Oral Liquid this year, our family would have been even more sad."
Mai Guoji didn't hide anything. His father was the fourth uncle who was known as the Hong Kong stock god. Their family started out as a financial industry. Of course, their family was not spared this time in the US financial tsunami, and they also lost a lot of capital.
It really relies on the emergence of Li Zhiyang's Haitian Qiangsheng Oral Liquid. This product is not only well bought in mainland China, but also in Hong Kong and Macao.
And recently their family has obtained agency rights in Taiwan and Southeast Asia, so the situation is getting better now.
So he was still very grateful to Li Zhiyang. You should know that he was not a very favored person at home.
The family originally intended to hand over the position of the future helm to the younger brother of his second uncle's family, but now because he has obtained the agency rights of Haitian in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, he has become a hot figure at home.
Now the group's board of directors is still at home, and they are talking about the candidates for the helmsman of the future group. Do you need to adjust it?
What caused all this was that he met Li Zhiyang, a noble man. How could he not be grateful to Li Zhiyang?
"Haha, that's good. This financial crisis is just a temporary situation. As long as you survive, it will be fine. And I think that a large group like your family has very strong vitality. In 1997, wasn't it much more powerful than this? Didn't everyone survive it?"
Li Zhiyang smiled and said, "Don't look at Mai Guoji who is crying poor here, but these wealthy people in Hong Kong, especially capital players, have very few people who play in the industry now. Even if they play, they are all playing in the mainland. In the mainland, as long as they have a good relationship with the court, how can they lose money?"
"Haha, that's right, by the way, Li Sheng, I'm here this time, but I'm going to bring something to you."
Mai Guoji said with a smile, but halfway through his speech, he seemed to suddenly remember something, so he took over the suitcase he had been with him just now.
No matter how stupid Li Zhiyang was, he knew at this time that Mai Guoji was giving him money. Before leaving the imperial capital last time, he mentioned to Mai Guoji that he wanted to cash out all the forward options of the great banks in his hands.
At that time, Mai Guoji had talked to Li Zhiyang that if Li Zhiyang planned to take action, then their family would do a favor and take over all the forward options of those great banks.
Their father and uncle are veterans in the finance industry, and they have a close relationship with a bank in the United States, so if they want it, Li Zhiyang didn't say much and agreed to give the forward options of those great banks to them and make a favor.
At that time, Li Zhiyang exchanged the forward options of those great banks for $1.5 billion, and now it has a market value of at least $6 billion.
Although Bank of America made a big profit from the forward options that hyped up the great banks this time, Li Zhiyang made a lot of money this time. At least this money was not for nothing to be earned by these heartless American dogs. He was also angry.
Mai Guoji's suitcase has a high high-tech content. He carefully fiddled with the password for a long time before opening the password box.
Then he took out several stacks of exquisitely printed paper from it and handed it to Li Zhiyang. Li Zhiyang took it over and saw that it was all promissory notes from Swiss banks.
He looked at it roughly and found that the total value was 6 billion US dollars. That's right. It seems that Uncle Fourth has made great determination this time.
In such a big financial crisis, six billion is not a small amount
Although six billion US dollars is not a lot for Li Zhiyang now, it is not a small amount. At least, before his investment in the FTSE 100 index in the UK was recovered, the money was not a small amount.
After reading it, Li Zhiyang took the promissory notes aside. He is not short of money yet and has a total of 30 to 4 billion US dollars. Even if he spent hundreds of millions of dollars a few days ago, in his opinion, that money is nothing.
"By the way, Li Sheng, you are about to get engaged. I came here this time and brought a gift from my family that I asked me to bring to you. Please accept it with a smile."
Mai Guoji smiled and said, "Li Zhiyang didn't care much. To be honest, the rich and tycoons who came to his house to visit were not generous."
The relatives of Rockefeller and Carnegie's family alone have probably given more than one million dollars in gifts these days, and Li Zhiyang couldn't help but feel a headache.
These are favors, and they will be paid back then.
At this moment, Mai Guoji smiled and handed over a piece of proof paper. Li Zhiyang took it and saw that I was sending him a yacht.
This is a small yacht worth about $500,000. It is an Italian brand in Italy. This brand is known as Lamborghini in the water. This brand is one of the eight famous yacht brands in the world.
However, it seems that the people from the Mai family are also very rational. The yacht chosen as a gift is not the top-notch, nor the most expensive one. It just happens to be a small yacht that ten people go out to the coast to play.
Although this yacht is not the most expensive and not the best, it is also a rare gift for Li Zhiyang. It seems that people have put a lot of effort into preparing gifts for themselves.
To be honest, I don’t have a very familiar relationship with the Mai family, but the people who are so generous in their actions also fully demonstrate their importance to me.
Li Zhiyang accepted it without being pretentious.
"Haha, Li Sheng's yacht is parked at the pier in Repulse Bay. When will you drive it away when you arrive in Hong Kong?"
Mai Guoji said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll go if I have time."
Li Zhiyang replied with a smile, when he had no money in the past, he thought that as long as one day he could have enough of his own car, he would live in. Unexpectedly, now he has reached the point where he can play with planes and yachts.
And he has never been to Hong Kong. It seems that if he has time, he really wants to go there and have fun. After all, he is also the Pearl of Oriental and the shopping paradise of Oriental.
"By the way, Mr. Mai, I happen to have a good investment project. I want to talk to you. I don't know, are you interested?"
Li Zhiyang asked with a smile. The reason why he received other people’s gifts just now was because he had such an idea.
"Oh? What is it, let's hear it."
When Mai Guoji heard Li Zhiyang say this, his eyes suddenly shone. In his opinion, Li Zhiyang is simply his lucky boy, and every time he meets him, there will be good things.
Hong Kong people believe in the monsters and monsters very much, especially rich people, the more they believe in this thing.
In Mai Guoji's view, Li Zhiyang is now the lucky star of his numerology and a noble person in life. If it weren't for Li Zhiyang, how could he have the same status in the group today?
Moreover, he is quite optimistic about Li Zhiyang's investment vision. This young man was able to rise to the capital with a large pool of giants in just over a year, which is enough to show his investment vision.
Moreover, he failed to reach a cooperation with Li Zhiyang and the others in the previous Haitian Qiang Physical Oral Liquid, and the Rockefeller Consortium took the lead, and his intestines were cleared out halfway.
Now Li Zhiyang has new projects to do, and his status today is very different from that time. How could Mai Guoji not be interested in Li Zhiyang's proposal?
"That's right. Some time ago, I got a patent from several scientific researchers at MiT. I want to promote it. I wonder if Mr. Mai, are you interested?"
Li Zhiyang said with a smile. In fact, when he just got the artificial tree from Anderson and Sheldon, he had the intention of working together with others to do this project.
This is not to say that he can't afford the money, but that he really doesn't have time to manage the newly established company, because his current stall is too big and he can't take care of it.
Besides, if you have money, everyone will make money, is this the kingly way?
"Oh? What is the patented product?"
When Mai Guoji heard this, he became even more interested. He has been in the mainland for many years and also knows that the current business atmosphere in the mainland is very popular for some mainland merchants to hype new concepts and high technology.
Moreover, there are not many new so-called high-tech companies, so they are not making a fortune.
"It's like that. I got an artificial tree from those two mysterious researchers."
Li Zhiyang said with a smile.
“Artificial tree?”
Mai Guoji felt very confused. What gimmicks does this thing have? In the south where rain is abundant, it can be said that it is common all year round. What is there to hype about this?
Li Zhiyang looked at the doubts in Mai Guoji's eyes, so he began to explain to Mai Guoji.
"This artificial tree is not simple..."
So Li Zhiyang explained the words he heard from Anderson and Sheldon again to Mai Guoji.
"Wait, Li Sheng, do you mean that if this tree becomes large, then if there is no tree, the oxygen that can produce in a year is nine times that of a hectare of deep forest?"
Mai Guoji heard the point, which is definitely a buying point, especially in large cities with serious air pollution.
Unfortunately, Hong Kong is one of them. Hong Kong itself has many vehicles, and it is just across the sea from Shenzhen. Moreover, Guangdong has developed rapidly in recent years. Many coastal places in Guangdong have opened many small factories, such as Foshan, Maoming, Zhuhai, etc., and countless private small factories have been opened.
The pollution caused by these small factories is immeasurable. In recent years, scholars from the University of Hong Kong have conducted experiments. The results show that the current air environment in Hong Kong has deteriorated more than five floors compared to ten years ago.
However, these topics were of course forgotten by the SAR government, and no one came to you on the mainland.
"Well, yes, and the most important thing is that the miniaturized product of this product also has immeasurable advantages. It can complete photosynthesis by itself, and the added ingredients can also absorb formaldehyde brought by the new home decoration, as well as chemical components such as carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide in the air, and release a large amount of oxygen. It can also effectively kill bacteria in the air. It is completely a household oxygen bar."
Li Zhiyang continued to explain, while Mai Guoji on the other side was already nodding constantly when he heard it.
This concept is very novel, right? You should know that the concept of hype high-tech when sales emerged in mainland China was passed down from Hong Kong. Hong Kong people are more superstitious about high-tech than the mainland.
Can these things be recommended in Hong Kong's so-called high-quality hospitals? Mai Guoji was able to think about it while listening.
Li Zhiyang also saw Mai Guoji's constant nodding. He knew that this guy seemed to be quite tempted.
"And the most amazing thing is that in order to strengthen the concept of familyization, the two researchers also developed another thing, that is, artificial leaves."
To be continued...
