Chapter 131: Pure Purpose
Li Zonglin pulled Zhou Ming to Bali or Si Shui, but Zhou Ming just shook his head: "Mr. Li Zonglin, I can go to these places at any time. The most urgent thing is that we should decide on the cooperation matter first."
Liu Chuanming was also helping Zhou Ming at this time: "Yes, Mr. Li Zonglin, we are very grateful for your kind hospitality, but there are some things that can only be at ease if you settle down first!"
Li Zonglin still had a smile on his face, but anyone could feel that he was not as enthusiastic as before.
"Mr. Zhou Ming, I always think you are a smart person. If you are so smart, you have to do smart things. I believe you, so please believe me. If I have cooperation, I will definitely have it. But don't be so anxious." Li Zonglin then emphasized, "Especially now, we are so happy, why do you still mention some disappointing things? Are you right?"
"Mr. Li Zonglin, please forgive me for not understanding why cooperation has become a disappointment?" Zhou Ming asked, "Then if I insist on asking, will Mr. Li Zonglin kick me out?"
Li Zonglin put down his wine glass, and the hypocritical smile on his face was completely gone, replaced by a very entertaining regret.
"Since Mr. Zhou Ming wants to find out the bottom line, I can only tell the truth." Li Zonglin, "Actually, there is nothing good. As I have done before, if I have cooperation, I must have cooperation. My Li family has more than 200 plantations in Indonesia, with an area of more than 300 million mu. In addition, we also have three large oil fields and thirty mines."
"So no matter if you want to do palm oil business, rubber calories, mining oil, or even drug business, I can help you. Of course, if Mr. Zhou Ming has a good plan, I can also provide you with more than 100 million US dollars in interest-free loans, and I can also donate you 10 million US dollars in private name."
Li Zonglin looked at Zhou Ming meaningfully and asked him: "How about this kind of cooperation? I think with Mr. Zhou Ming, your ability can easily bring rich returns."
Zhou Mingtou: "Indeed, the assets of the Li family in Indonesia are somewhat beyond my imagination. I can also predict that as long as I can agree, with my relationship in China, I will not be surprised to become the second Zheng Haolong."
At this point, Zhou Ming suddenly changed his mind: "But it's a pity that this is not the cooperation I want."
Li Zonglin's eyes were not good, and he felt like he was being teased. He had heard what Zhou Ming said before, but he thought Zhou Ming would agree immediately without hesitation, but he didn't expect that in the end he had a tail-shifting turn, which made him very unhappy.
"So what cooperation do you want, Mr. Zhou Ming?" Li Zonglin asked.
"I want to borrow the relationship between the Li family in Indonesia and the entire Southeast Asia, including your investment channels, bank funds and securities companies. Of course, I don't want your money. I just need you to help my capital, and we can also make an agreement on compensation in advance." Zhou Ming.
"hehe!"
Li Zonglin sneered, then laughed wildly: "Mr. Zhou Ming, I think you are drunk and confused. How can you say such things? What are you borrowing all the financial channels of the Li family? Are you going to be the emperor of Southeast Asia and let us be your retainer?"
Zhou Ming looked serious and serious: "I'm sorry, Mr. Li Zonglin, I'm not kidding."
"I think the reason is known by the Li family's ability. Now all European consortiums have gathered in Southeast Asia and are preparing to engage in a capital world war here. I was invited by Grand Duke Juan of Spain and Prince Mercede of Germany to participate, but my foundation is too shallow, so I must rely on the help of the Chinese group that has been operating in Southeast Asia for hundreds of years."
Zhou Ming looked at Li Zonglin: "This is exactly the reason why I came to Indonesia to find your Li family first."
"Because our Li family is the largest and most appealing group of the forty-eight surnames in Nanyang. As long as we are convinced, it will be easier for other Chinese clans to understand."
Li Zonglin looked at Zhou Ming with a smile: "Mr. Zhou Ming is good at making a move. Have you ever thought we would refuse? Or why should we promise you? Is it because you are a businessman from your mother country China?"
Li Zonglin shook his head on his own: "It's so pitiful, ridiculous, naive and naive! I think Mr. Zhou Ming, you must not know that just ten years ago, when China just proposed reform and opening up, he sent a secret envoy to my Li family to ask us to return to China to invest, but we rejected it. So, Mr. Zhou Ming, why should you make more excessive demands now? Just open your mouth and add an ambassador?"
Li Zonglin sighed: "Fortunately, you met me, and I still remember the friendship between compatriots. So for the sake of Ambassador Liu Chuanming, this $10 million interest-free loan and $10 million private donation are already the limit of my decision. At most, I can make up for your donation of $5 million."
Seeing that Zhou Ming had nothing to say, Li Zonglin said earnestly: "One hundred and fifteen million US dollars, this number is already a lot! At least ten years ago, your secret envoy was unable to get out. Besides, this is just the startup capital for you. Our cooperation in palm oil, rubber or other business fields can make your wealth multiply."
"Don't be dissatisfied. You may not know much about the Li family, so if you don't know that the best thing about the Li family is probably me, Li Zonglin. If you meet my second brother today, it's no exaggeration. You can't even get in the door, and you may even be treated with ink splashing, just like the secret envoy sent by your central government ten years ago, it may even be even more excessive than that time."
Li Zonglin patted the table in front of Zhou Ming: "How is it? Think about it carefully. Maybe you can't turn around for a while now. It doesn't matter. I'll take you to have a good time in Indonesia to relax. Whether it's a yacht diving or something else, I can find a way. I have time to let you think slowly..."
"But I don't have time!"
Before Li Zonglin could finish, he was interrupted by Zhou Ming. Then Zhou Ming exhaled a long breath: "I really hope I am an ordinary businessman, then I will definitely agree to you. 115 million US dollars. What a big figure, just having the interest in the bank is probably enough for me to spend the rest of my life."
Then Zhou Ming changed his tone: "But I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. I don't want to be such an ordinary businessman. My purpose in coming to Indonesia this time is very simple, just for the financial storm that is about to sweep across Southeast Asia. I need all the support of the Li family!"
