Chapter 306: Cutting off the beard (4/5)
Soon after, a big man came.
The big man in charge of Zhejiang Province, in Su Mu's view, is like a state governor, he is not familiar with the Chinese officialdom system, and he has not even figured out the official department system in the United States.
The customs entry procedures have been completed, no one mentioned the strange license plate, and no one said that Li Ping'an did not have a visa, and was pulled away by the other party in a daze, the middle-aged high-ranking official surnamed Liu praised Zhejiang as a flower, and said that he would invite Su Mu to go to the outer building on the edge of the West Lake to eat West Lake vinegar fish and call flower chicken.
Somehow, he left with the other party, Su Mu directly regarded Mr. Ellison's Rolls-Royce as his own, and invited Mr. Liu to get in the car and go together, and the other party had no intention of refusing.
Soon after they left, the first and second leaders of the Shanghai market all rushed here, and when they heard that Su Mu had been picked up, they immediately jumped to their feet in anger and muttered again and again which bastard cut off his beard! Soon someone told them that Su Mu was walking with two cars with Zhejiang license plates, and one of them had a license plate of "Zhe Aยท00001"; after they pondered, they immediately guessed who it was, and when they saw hundreds of millions of dollars of foreign exchange investment flying away, they hurriedly asked people to check where they went......
Yes, Su Mu was abducted.
When he came to Shanghai, he should be received by the locals, and the gentleman surnamed Hu came to the airport last night to stay, and when he heard that the people had arrived, he hurried to come, and openly "snatched" the big money owner under the nose of the other party.
Su Mu underestimated himself and the importance that foreign investors in the coastal areas after the reform and opening up, especially a heavyweight super-rich man like him who holds a huge amount of foreign exchange.
A few days ago, the news that a wealthy investor was about to come to China had already spread in the narrow circle of China, and a group of bigwigs on the ruling side were all taken to heart, and some regretted that Mr. Hu was not as direct as Mr. Hu, and went directly to Shanghai to intercept people.
In this era, the foreign exchange reserves of the whole of China are only about 10 billion US dollars, Su Mu brought hundreds of millions of US dollars, worth a quarter of the country's foreign exchange reserves, surnamed Hu, sitting in the Rolls-Royce car at the moment, already excited and wanted to laugh! I've been busy chatting with Su Mu, and I'm in the mood to check the interior of the car at this moment, it's comfortable and spacious, much more comfortable than his car, I don't know what brand it is, I don't know how much it's worth, I just know that it must be very expensive.
Su Mu came over before the Peace Hotel booked a room, a few years ago he did a survey, on the map bought by the trustee, found the riverside Lujiazui, this time to Huaxia also bought a piece of land to hoard and wait for appreciation, now I don't care about the wealth that land appreciation can bring, but there is no specific investment plan, easy to get the money can not be thrown away in vain.
Penguin's business is currently mainly in Europe and the United States, and will soon develop to China, HP, IBM and other companies have taken the lead in developing the market, and Penguin's global expansion plan is also being implemented, not to mention that the foundry named Foxconn is here, there is no reason to give up the Chinese market, it can be expected that the future will often come to China.
From the United States to China, from China to the United States, Li Ping'an, who was sitting in the front row, occasionally interjected and said a few words, the content was nothing more than food and local customs.
People always say that Chinatown is Little China, but there is actually a difference, especially when Su Mu lived in Chinatown, there were not so many new immigrants who had just passed from Chinatown, the rich would not live in the old Chinatown, and most of the poor people were smuggling to try to make money in the United States.
In more than 100 years of development, the local culture has been blended with American culture, to Su Mu's generation, living in Chinatown, but receiving American education since childhood, using Su Mu's way of thinking to guess Mr. Hu's approach, how to figure out why he came to greet him, even the hospitality can't make sense, until now he still doesn't know whether others value his identity as an "investor".
It's no wonder that I didn't know about the current situation in advance, and I didn't hear the "tour guide" in the company mention this matter, that guy stayed in Huaxia for a few months in the early eighties, and the national conditions at that time were different from now, and economic development suddenly became the central issue.
The ambassador to the United States has expressed his determination to open up and attract investment on various occasions in recent years, and he was afraid that people would neglect Su Mu, a super-rich man who can be counted in the United States, so he called his friends and mentioned it, which reached the ears of many well-intentioned people, which is why such a timely welcome has happened today.
During the chat, Su Mu had already indicated that he would live in Shanghai for a few days.
The police car in front of the road, the driver of the police car is not a local, occasionally ask passers-by, groping to the Peace Hotel, the bodyguard who is driving is the first time in his life to return to China, and he doesn't know where to go, just behind the police car, Ferrari handed over to the other two bodyguards to drive, the guns are temporarily stored at the airport, and they can only be taken back before leaving.
Seeing this strange convoy, passers-by understood that there were big people, and when they met Ferraris, even the bus drivers who were known as road killers were far away from them, and they looked expensive.
In this era, there was no Ferrari in China, but there may be smugglers, and how many people have seen it, seeing Ellison's sports car, many passers-by have their eyes straightened, without blinking, and they feel that they have seen the world.
The roadside buildings are dilapidated, the road is mainly bicycles and motorcycles, there are not many cars, the economy is underdeveloped, the per capita income is not as high as Indonesia, the Philippines and other countries, Ford, Toyota, Volkswagen, etc. are luxury cars, ordinary people can't afford to buy them after working for ten years, if there is a Mercedes-Benz, walking nostrils can be lifted to the sky.
The road is not wide, everywhere looks dilapidated, the second most famous city in China is like this, I think other cities should be more dilapidated, it must be false to say that I am not disappointed.
Su Mu was full of doubts, and he couldn't think of how it was possible to develop a country with such a large population into the world's second largest economy, in the words he heard on the radio, "New Yorkers will also be amazed when they come to Shanghai", whether they will be amazed in the future Su Mu is not clear for the time being, anyway, he doesn't feel it now, he always feels like coming to an enlarged version of Chinatown, but there are more people......
