Chapter 264: Honorary Citizen of Los Angeles
Li Guangyu and admired the influence of the California consortium in California, Li Guangyu had just finished talking with Nick Chiannini two days ago, and a message came from the Los Angeles City Government, inviting Li Guangyu to go to the Los Angeles City Government, and after passing a parliamentary resolution, the City of Los Angeles will award Li Guangyu the honorary citizen of Los Angeles for life.
Li Guangyu was prepared for an accident when he received the news, this name is still good for the Li Group, and the development of Li Guangyu's company in the United States will be more convenient, and it will reduce the troubles in the development of some groups.
Lee also has a deeper understanding of the California consortium's influence in the region, and it is also a way for the California consortium to show itself that they are strong and let the Lee Group know that there are huge benefits to be gained by working with them.
Li Guangyu also understands that his strength is still too weak, and there is still a long way to go to build the Li family into a consortium. However, he was not discouraged, he had decades of knowledge at his disposal, and there were many opportunities to make a fortune for him, and he believed that the Lee Consortium would not be too far away from the California Consortium in terms of financial resources in the future. As for other aspects, Li Guangyu should study carefully where is the most suitable for himself.
At 9 a.m. on December 15, Lee Kwang Woo arrived at the Los Angeles City Hall Plaza, where he will be awarded the title of Honorary Citizen of Los Angeles for Life by the City of Los Angeles in the presence of countless citizens and media.
This time there was Merrill Lynch President J.R. John, who, after seeing Lee Guangyu's arrival, stepped forward and said, "Mr. Lee, congratulations on receiving this honor, I believe that in the future, you will definitely not only be a lifetime honorary citizen of Los Angeles, but the state of California will also recognize you in the near future, and then Mr. Governor will award you a lifetime honorary citizen of California." Flash"
When J. R. John came over, Peng Xiaoli, who followed Li Guangyu, introduced Li Guangyu's origin.
Li Guangyu said, "Mr. John, I still need to thank you, otherwise the Los Angeles City Government would not have recognized me so quickly and reciprocated me with such affirmation." ”
J.R. John was very happy to hear Li Guangyu's thanks, and this time the California consortium made such a contribution to let Lee Guangyu witness the strength of the California consortium, and at the same time let Lee Guangyu write down this favor, so as to lay a good foundation for the cooperation between the California consortium and the Lee Group.
J.R. John said, "Mr. Lee, you are welcome, as our friend, we provide some help for the future of our common development. ”
After chatting with J.R. John for a while, Lee went to the center of the square, and the award ceremony was presided over by Los Angeles Mayor Werner West.
After Li Guangyu came over, he said to Werner West, "Mr. West, thank you for the government's affirmation of me, the Lee Group will continue to invest in Los Angeles, which will always be the headquarters of our Lee Group." ”
"Mr. Lee, thank you for your trust in Los Angeles, and we are confident that the Lee's Group will thrive and drive our Los Angeles economy forward," said Werner West. ”
……
After accepting the title from the City of Los Angeles, Lee and Werner West were interviewed by media reporters.
The Los Angeles Times asked Werner West, "Mr. West, what made you decide to award Mr. Lee Guangyu an Honorary Citizen of Los Angeles for life?"
"Mr. Lee started building our company in Los Angeles more than two years ago. So far, the Lee Group has established more than a dozen U.S. headquarters in our company, which has helped promote the economic development of Los Angeles. At the same time, this year, Mr. Lee's Lakers won the NBA championship, which is a good way to expand our influence in Los Angeles, which is why we gave Mr. Lee this status. ”
A reporter from the New York Times asked Li Guangyu, "Mr. Li, you must know that New York is the world's financial center, and the headquarters of countless famous multinational groups are located there. ”
As a sworn enemy of Los Angeles, New York always likes to lick and block Los Angeles on such occasions, and it would be better if Li Guangyu could establish his headquarters in New York.
Li Guangyu said with a smile, "Our Lee Group has developed very well in Los Angeles, and we have no idea of relocating the US headquarters of the Lee Group. As for the development of the group, it mainly depends on the quality of the company's products, and I feel that there is no difference between the headquarters in New York and Los Angeles. ”
A reporter from the Western News newspaper asked, "Mr. Li, do you have any plans for the future investment of the Li Group in the United States?"
Li Guangyu said, "Our Li Group will increase investment in real estate, hotels and media in the future, and at the same time, we Tianyu Investment Company is also willing to accept financing from major high-tech companies in Silicon Valley as an angel investment institution." ”
……
After Li Guangyu returned to the hotel, he said to Peng Xiaoli, "Xiaoli, I will go to Japan tomorrow, and you should pay more attention to the affairs of our Li Group in the United States, especially the situation in Texas." ”
Peng Xiaoli is very happy these days, Li Guangyu has handed over all the cooperation with the California consortium to himself, which shows that Li Guangyu has already played the game to be responsible for all the industries in the United States, and his wishes are getting closer and closer to reality.
Thinking that she could also enter the Li family's executive team, she was happy in her heart, and she was very motivated to work these days.
After Peng Xiaoli heard Li Guangyu's instructions, she immediately returned to Li Guangyu and said, "Li Sheng, I will pay attention to the situation in this regard, and at the same time, I will also communicate with the California consortium to promote the development of our group in the United States." ”
After cooperating with the California consortium, especially today, he has won the title of honorary citizen of Los Angeles for life, Li Guangyu believes that the US government is unlikely to issue special regulations against him, and besides, the Texas consortium is far from the same as the California consortium, and the Texas consortium will not have to get along with the Lee group when it knows that Lee Guangyu is cooperating with the California consortium.
Li Guangyu instructed, "Xiaoli, there are things that can't be decided here, you can contact Tianfan to see his opinion, and at the same time, you should also pay more attention to the affairs of Tianyu Investment Company, Tianfan and the successor has been selected, I also recognize, you have to communicate more with Liang Botao in the future, that side is also a very important company in our group, you have to pay attention to it." ”
Here, Tianyu Investment Company mainly invests in Internet companies, thinking about the companies that rank first in market value in the future, all of them are the Internet, and Li Guangyu can't pay too much attention to it. As long as Lee Kong Woo holds 10 shares in those well-known companies, the market value of these shares will be immeasurable.
Peng Xiaoli naturally knew that Li Guangyu attached great importance to the company over there, otherwise she would not have sent Yuan Tianfan to be stationed there for so many years, specifically responsible for the company's investment matters, but the other business of the Li Group in the United States was handled by herself, and only when there were particularly important matters, Yuan Tianfan would come forward.
Peng Xiaoli said, "Li Sheng, don't worry, I will focus on the development of Tianyu Investment. ”
