Li Mu's family has not even been an official in five generations, so even when they are reborn, Li Mu does not want to deal with other economic situations other than the market economy. It is precisely because of this that in his opinion, the industry Zhao Xianliang is engaged in is a field that he will not even be killed by himself. Whether it is energy or steel, Li Mu feels extremely insecure.

These two industries have created many billionaires, but they have also destroyed many families. Moreover, there are almost no businessmen who can enter the top ten in the domestic rich rankings, which shows some of the characteristics of this industry.

Moreover, Zhao Xianliang's current net worth is at least a few billion, which is logically considered to be rich, but Li Mu never heard of the name Zhao Xianliang in his previous life. It can be seen that after 2010, his development should not be too good, otherwise, he would not have even heard of it.

In this way, it can be basically concluded that Zhao Xianliang has little room for development in the future, and he will even start to decline soon. If he does not adjust the industrial structure quickly at this time, once the general trend comes, he will not be able to turn around.

Building a business is like fighting a war. The bigger the company, the worse the mobility. When a small startup company with three or five people is heading south, the boss waves his hand and turns around and turns around, and everyone can immediately turn north. If the boss gives orders to change directions, many people will not be able to turn around and even not follow him. If he has to complete the turn, he will either clean up the inside or break through one mountain one by one.

Those who do business in Zhao Xianliang have a high proportion of fixed assets, a high proportion of debt, and a large base of personnel. They have used hundreds of millions of cash and loans to invest in a factory. Thousands of workers maintain operation. Once the market goes down, they must insist on production even if they lose money. Otherwise, once the work is shut down, the bank will intervene or even seal it. This situation is like falling rapidly in the abyss. What are you thinking of turning around? It will burn the fragrance if you don’t want to be crushed to pieces.

So, Li Mu has heard of many physical entrepreneurs like him, who were still billionaires yesterday, but tomorrow they owe hundreds of millions of dollars to the bank on the verge of bankruptcy.

When I don’t understand, I feel that these rich people are also stupid. They can have tens of millions of dollars in stock when they sell their fixed assets, so they will not lose anything. But if you understand a little, you will know that it is not the case at all.

When it doesn't work, he also wants to cut his flesh and leave. The key is that it's not his turn to cut his flesh. When he can live, no one will cause trouble for him. Once he is about to die, the bank and the creditors rushed up with a bone-demolting knife and broke him up. Then thousands of employees then snatched the last bit of meat left on the bone like ants.

Since Zhao Xianliang started his business, he was basically half white and half gray. Although he has gradually started to whitewash, the special nature of the industry is here. As long as he still earns this money, he will not completely clean it, just like an underground excavator cannot keep his hands covered with coal ash.

However, as the scale of assets grows, he gradually feels various pressures. The greater the pressure, the more he feels a little weak in the future.

He sincerely felt that Li Mu was right. These two industries were too severely affected by the general trend. No one in them could understand the context. Sometimes the market was washed away like a flood, and it was difficult not to make money. But sometimes, the market fell into a long-term drought, and I wish I could make money. Open the door today and burn money tomorrow. The future is full of variables.

However, the balance of assets is simple to say, but it is not so easy to do.

He sighed lightly and said to Li Mu: "I am also thinking about the problem you mentioned just now. I gradually pulled out funds and assets from the original industry in batches and invested them in other fields. However, I have not come into contact with many industries, and many industries can be said to know nothing, and it is better to be more confident in the existing industry."

After saying that, he asked Li Mu: "Do you have any good suggestions?"

Li Mu hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhao, I dare not give you specific suggestions casually because I don't understand industry. However, I think that in the future, industrial development also needs to go further and do a bigger step in order to go further."

Speaking of this, Li Mu took out his color screen mobile phone and said, "Look, the trend of electronic product information visualization is getting stronger and stronger. Almost all household electronic products will carry a large or small display screen. However, a traditional mobile phone screen with a layer of transparent plastic outside. It is kept in a pocket for three or two months. This layer of plastic will basically be spent in a mess. If a glass company can transform to specialize in the production and development of ultra-thin, super-hard and ultra-clear screen glass for electronic products, this company may open up a brand new market and lead the way."

Zhao Xianliang nodded slightly and smiled, "I must take time to study it carefully to see if there is any suitable direction. If so, I will gradually make some layout so that there will be problems in the future."

Li Mu smiled and said, "I think you can try to build the sports industry first, first hoard resources at a bargain price, and after the industry starts, you can sell or develop."

Zhao Xianliang said: "Then let's try it first in the sports and football industry. If it is reliable, then try to make a breakthrough in other industries."

Li Mu nodded slightly. The football industry is indeed a new trend in the future. He has great determination to invest in football and will definitely be able to promote the rapid development of the domestic football industry. Under such circumstances, Zhao Xianliang came to the bottom-buying football market and made a steady profit.

If the football industry can make him taste the sweetness, he will definitely spread to the entire sports industry in the next stage. This is also a good thing. At least with capital to promote it, the people can realize the importance of strengthening their bodies earlier.

...

When Li Mu followed Zhao Xianliang, Zhao Ziqiu and his daughter arrived at the villa by the West Lake, Xie Yun had already taken Li Mu's parents in advance. The three of them were chatting in the living room at this moment, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Xie Yun specially set up her favorite tea sea and tea set, took out her treasured tea, and made tea for Li Mu's parents by herself.

As soon as Li Mu came in, he heard Li Ma's exclamation: "Oh, my son is here!"

Dad Li put down the teacup, turned his head to look at Li Mu, and smiled and said, "Boy, it's harder to see you once than to meet anyone."

"Dad, mom!" Li Mu stepped forward to say hello to his parents, and then greeted Xie Yun politely.

When Li Mom saw her son, she felt particularly happy. She happened to see Li Ziwei following Li Mu again, so she became happier and said with a smile: "Ziwei is here too!"

Li Ziwei smiled shyly and called sweetly: "Godmom, godfather..."

Li's mother and Li's father responded quickly, and then said to Xie Yun and Zhao Xianliang: "Ziwei is the goddaughter we recognize."

Xie Yun nodded and greeted Li Ziwei politely. She knew about Li Ziwei. When Li’s father and mother wanted to accept Li Ziwei as their goddaughter, Xie Yun was worried that Li’s mother would also want to harvest his daughter Zhao Ziqiu into her goddaughter. Fortunately, she didn’t have the intention.

Li's mother liked Li Ziwei very much, so she walked directly to Li Ziwei, took her hand and said, "Ziwei, you have followed Li Mu around for a while, and people have lost a lot of weight."

Li Ziwei blushed and said, "Godmom, it is my job to follow Mr. Li around, and Mr. Li works harder than me."

Li Ma patted the back of her hand and smiled, "In the future, you don't need to call him Mr. Li in private occasions. They are all family members and they look different."

Li Ziwei nodded embarrassedly.

Xie Yun hurriedly greeted Li Mu and Li Ziwei warmly, sitting down opposite the tea sea, and said with a smile: "You are here at the right time. Auntie pour you a cup of tea and taste it."

Li Mu thanked him and sat down with Zhao Xianliang and Zhao Ziqiu. Li Mu was next to his mother, while Zhao Ziqiu naturally stood next to him.

While using bamboo to pick up several high-temperature sterilized tea cups, Xie Yun poured a cup of freshly brewed tea for each of the three of them, and then said to Li Mu: "Li Mu, this is a small group of Zhengshan, how about it taste."

Li Mu nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip. It tasted rich, sweet and mellow, and had endless aftertaste.

"Auntie Xie, this tea is so delicious."

Seeing that Li Mu liked it, Xie Yun nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Auntie, there are still many more. I'll bring them with you when you return to Yanjing."

"Thank you, auntie." Li Mu said, and asked Wang Yuanlang to bring in the gift he prepared in advance.

This time when he went to England, he prepared some gifts unique to the royal family. The jewelry made by his mother and Zhao Ziqiu's mother was handmade by craftsmen designated by the royal family. The brooch was prepared for his father and Zhao Xianliang. The brooch was customized by the royal family, a platinum crown, and three diamonds were also inlaid with them.

As for Zhao Ziqiu, Li Mu prepared her an expensive diamond necklace of the same style as the Queen, which cost Li Mu more than one million pounds. Although giving a necklace is somewhat cliché, for straight male cancer like Li Mu, he really couldn't think of any better gifts.

Zhao Ziqiu doesn't care what Li Mu gives. As long as Li Mu has her in his heart, she will be very satisfied with the gifts given by Li Mu. As for the four parents, they are very satisfied with the gifts given by Li Mu, especially the two mothers. They have a natural beauty love nature. As they grow older and pass middle age, they prefer some clothing and decorations that young people think are exaggerated.

The jewelry that Li Mu gave them was basically craftsmanship and styles only available in the royal family. The styles were very novel, exquisitely crafted and valuable, so they naturally made the two mothers very happy.

After drinking two small cups of tea, the four parents began to ask questions around Li Mu, and the most common question they asked was the whole process of Li Mu awarding medals at Buckingham Palace at that time. For them, Li Mu was able to receive the queen's medal and was the highest-level medal, which was a great honor, but Li Mu himself was not very interested in this medal.

However, even though Li Mu did not pay attention, he still explained it in detail to the four elders in full, and he heard it and his father and mother were full of pride.
