"Although I am not the core of the Li family but just a side branch, I do come from Singapore. I have also been in charge of sovereign funds like Temasek, and I have indeed brought money from the Li family. My investment is real..."

After Li Yijia spoke, he realized that he had said the wrong thing. He was anxious to defend himself, but no one listened to his words afterwards, because the focus of everyone was whether he was the core Li family of the forty-eight surnames in Nanyang.

The first thing that came to the reaction was Deputy Mayor Gao Li: "Director Wang, I need an explanation, what's going on?"

The deputy director of investment promotion trembled all over when he heard this, and then hurriedly explained: "Mayor Gao, I don't know what's going on. I have verified Mr. Li Yijia's identity information before, so there is no problem..."

As he spoke, he saw Vice Mayor Gao Li's eyes sharper and sharper. Then he realized that the focus at this time was not the authenticity of his identity, so he said again: "I did not verify Mr. Li Yijia's identity because we do not have any special qualities in China. We welcome all foreign overseas Chinese as long as they are legally entering the country!"

"In fact, it is not important to Mr. Li Yijia's identity. At least he can bring investment from the Singapore Li family and drive the development of the Internet economy. This is his greatest contribution!"

Director Wang then pointed his finger at Zhou Ming: "But what about you, Mr. Zhou Ming?"

How could Zhou Ming not understand Director Wang's words? As the deputy director of the investment promotion office, being able to attract foreign capital is his political achievements and his capital for promotion, so even at this time, he must keep his face.

"If it were foreign capital, I would have some friends in Hong Kong City," said Zhou Ming.

After hearing what Zhou Ming said, Li Yijia shook unconsciously. Obviously, he thought of something bad, but Director Wang did not see it. He needed to survive the level before him: "Do you say you have friends in Hong Kong? You are really bragging and don't make drafts. Then I say that I am still friends with the US president! If you have the ability, you should come to invest in your Hong Kong friends now!"

Zhou Ming, Cao Jianning and Ma Weixun both frowned. There is no doubt that Director Wang is already shameless about being a scoundrel for his own face and black hat. Even if he is a friend, you can't just ask him to come.

But Director Wang didn't care, and still looked arrogant, as if he had achieved some great victory: "How is it? You can't find it now, so you are just a liar who talks nonsense. On the contrary, Mr. Li Yijia's investment has already been more realistic..."

However, before Director Wang finished speaking, the cell phone in Zhou Ming's hand rang. Zhou Ming picked up and answered it. It was Li Cheng's son Li Yunde's phone number. He told Zhou Ming that he had led a Hong Kong business delegation to Nanjiang, hoping to meet Zhou Ming and discuss investment matters.

Zhou Ming turned on the mobile phone as soon as possible: "Director Wang, since you are responsible for attracting investment, you won't know Li Yunde, the son of Hong Kong businessman Li Cheng, right?"

Director Wang's face was very awkward. How could he not know Li Yunde? But at this time, he could not defeat his airs!

"Do you say it's Li Yunde or Li Yunde? How did I know that this phone call was not something you asked for casual calls? Anyway, no one on the phone can be sure who is on the other side..."

Director Wang still wanted to talk lies with his eyes open, but Deputy Mayor Gao Li's cell phone rang first, and it was called by the Municipal Party Secretary himself.

"Hong Kong businessman Li Yunde led a delegation of Hong Kong businessmen to Nanjiang, you will be back soon."

There is only a simple sentence, but it is like a bolt from the blue to Gao Li.

Director Wang was still talking nonsense there, and Gao Li suddenly shouted "Enough". Director Wang was shocked and looked back at Gao Li in fear, not understanding what was going on.

"The secretary just called and said he wanted to welcome Li Yunde and the Hong Kong business delegation." Gao Li told him.

Director Wang suddenly felt like he fell into an ice cellar. If he had said nothing before, as long as he was thick-skinned and dared to act like a scoundrel, he could pass the barrier in front of him. But now the secretary called him, and there was no room for trouble.

"So this is your dereliction of duty at work. Go back and write me a check report immediately. I've been handed over to my desk tomorrow morning. You really disappointed me!"

Gao Li would not have heard him say it. He left this sentence hard and turned away. The slap in the face was too suddenly and too unexpected, making him not want to say one more thing to Zhou Ming, Cao Jianning and others.

The deputy director of investment promotion just stared at Gao Li leaving, and he didn't dare to say anything more. After Gao Li left, he immediately grabbed Li Yijia's collar, his anger made his expression distorted, and he cursed at the other party: "You bastard! Didn't you say that you are the core figure of the Li family in Singapore? How could it become like this? My future is ruined by you!"

Li Yijia was both afraid and at a loss and explained that he didn't want to do this. Moreover, he didn't really say that at the beginning. It was because Director Wang misunderstood that he said so with the flow.

Li Yijia's words made Director Wang angry, so he started a fight with Li Yijia on the spot.

Li Yijia felt so sad! Of course, he did not directly say that he was the core of the Li family, but he was also constantly making indirect tricks and proving from various aspects that he was the core of the Li family. If it weren't for this, Director Wang would not support him so much.

Li Yijia had to do this. Originally, he wanted to invest in Hong Kong City with his funds, but because of Zhou Ming's affairs, he was targeted by the wealthy families in the entire Hong Kong City. Li Yijia couldn't stay in Hong Kong City and did not dare to return to Singapore like this. In the end, he had to come to the mainland to try his luck. At this time, Nanjiang happened to have a new policy on attracting investment, so Li Yijia boldly took the initiative to come to the door.

Zhou Ming originally didn't plan to take care of it, but they were not good at fighting in the Nanhu Hotel. Secondly, Zhou Ming still needs to communicate with Li Yijia about instant messaging software.

However, as soon as Zhou Ming got up, he was regarded as the last straw by Li Yijia and Director Wang.

They said to Zhou Ming together: "Mr. Zhou Ming, we can only rely on you now!"

This dramatic plot made Zhou Ming a little confused and didn't figure out what the situation was, but the result was still good.

They opened a private room at the Nanhu Hotel, and everyone sat down. Before Zhou Ming could speak, Li Yijia and Director Wang rushed to express their ideas. Li Yijia said that his iu company and the qcqy that had just acquired could all be given to Zhou Ming, as long as Zhou Ming could not care about it. Director Wang said that he could also transfer all the preferential policies he had given to iu company to Penguin Company, and in addition, he could even help Penguin privately.

These things were undoubtedly beyond Zhou Ming's expectations, because Zhou Ming was just planning to compete peacefully with iu company. Zhou Ming believed that with Ma Weixun's ability, as long as he did not use tricks behind his back, the rise of Penguin was only a matter of time before he could, but he did not expect that they would take the initiative to add so many discounts.

However, after so many years of rebirth, Zhou Ming has learned bad things. Although he must be impatient, he must still be calm on the surface. He pretended to be deeply hesitant and shirked away: "It's not good. Although I have the investment of Cao Jianning and I, Penguin's size is there, and the time to actually operate instant messaging software is very limited. On the contrary, qc and qy have long grasped the market."

Seeing Zhou Ming hesitating, Li Yijia and Director Wang were both anxious. They all said that this was okay. Li Yijia said that when he acquired qc and qy, he found that they were not that good. He believed that only Penguin was the hope of future instant messaging software. Li Yijia said that if Penguin had any financial difficulties, he could also make decisions to make certain concessions in terms of price. Anyway, the market value of iu company is also inflated.

Zhou Ming looked back at Cao Jianning and Ma Weixun, and saw that their eyes were shining. Zhou Ming himself understood that the other party had offered such conditions and wasting it would be a waste if he didn't get a bargain.

"Since you said this to Director Wang and Mr. Li Yijia, I don't seem to find any reason to refuse," said Zhou Ming.

After receiving Zhou Ming's affirmative reply, Li Yijia and Director Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief because they were really afraid that Zhou Ming would not agree.

First of all, if Li Yijia had a rough understanding of Zhou Ming before, then it would be clear now that Li Cheng and the entire wealthy families in the Hong Kong City will chase him to Nanjiang to please him, then Zhou Ming's identity will definitely not be simple; he had offended Zhou Ming in the Hong Kong City, but now he would offend him again in Nanjiang, so he would really not be able to return to Singapore. Even the Li family might give up on him. This is something he would not be able to see no matter what, and he must please Zhou Ming.

Not to mention Director Wang, because he was not strict in checking, he mistakenly recognized Li Yijia's identity and allowed the deputy mayor to attend today's signing ceremony, which made the deputy mayor very embarrassed.

Of course, if he could finally hold up the scene, it would be considered a meritorious service. However, as the city party secretary called him, he exposed his forced face on the spot, making his lies open like a clown, not only to lose his face, but also to the deputy mayor, but also to the investment promotion office and even the municipal government.

Such cadres, let alone have no hope of promotion in the future, are afraid that they will be transferred to the bench when they go back.

Director Wang certainly didn't want to see that a fat man was sent to the cold palace, so he could only put his last hope on Zhou Ming. After all, if he could establish a good relationship with Zhou Ming, if he could not take full responsibility for the Hong Kong business delegation's affairs, as long as he had something to do with him, it would be impossible to make a meritorious service!

As a cadre, it is definitely wrong to please a businessman like this, but now Director Wang has no choice.

Anyway, he had already opened his eyes and said lies so much before, but now he is giving up everything.

Since everyone has reached a consensus, it is time to talk about Penguin's merger of iu company.
Chapter completed!
