Chapter 660: Old Friend

At this moment, Zhao Sheng was surrounded in the center of the hall like the stars holding the moon.

Among them, there are many homeowners from the four major families who have only attended tonight's dinner.

They are all big names who play a pivotal role inside and outside the family, calling for wind and rain.

But at this moment, facing Zhao Sheng, the vice president of the Hong Kong Island Jockey Club, one of the four top clubs in the world, all showed a humble posture on his face, and when talking to Zhao Sheng, his upper body was slightly bent, and his gaze was always lower than Zhao Sheng's eyes, and his posture was respectful but not flattering, and the distance was just right.

"President Zhao, I heard that among the members of your Jockey Club, only two of the directors of the world's three major shipping groups are located, and one is still unable to join because of insufficient qualifications, is this really the case?"

Su Xiuyuan, the owner of the Su family's big house, finally found an opportunity to talk to Zhao Sheng, and immediately stepped forward to pick up his wine glass, pretending to be casual and asked with a smile.

"Hehe, the Club has many members, top figures in major industries around the world, although Adolf Martin has submitted several applications to us to join the club, but considering that several cargo ships have been hijacked at sea in the past few years, and the losses have been heavy, he rejected his request, and let Adolf concentrate on the affairs of the group, and it is not too late to submit the application after it is stable......."

Zhao Sheng said with a slight smile.

The tone is understated though.

But the others heard very clearly from his words, your Adolf's Feida shipping strength is not good, and you can't even handle the internal affairs of the group, so don't come to our horse club to cause trouble.

However, only Su Xiuyuan's face changed a few times after listening to it, and the information he got was completely different from the others.

The Su family originally made their fortune by doing global trade, and they have their own businesses and industries all over the world, and the amount of money received by the family every year is huge, supporting the expenses of the whole family.

The reason why the Su family has done this step in business, all because they have mastered the three major ports of DL port, YK port and QHD port among the top ten ports in China, they understand very well the importance of shipping for global trade, it can not only determine the throughput and transaction volume of your goods, but also determine the continuity of the group's capital and cargo flow, if the Su family's global trade business is compared to a human body, then shipping, is the blood vessels in the vertical and horizontal body, how important the blood vessels are to the human body, there is no doubt.

And Adolf Martin in Zhao Sheng's mouth is the president of Feida Shipping Group, which ranks third among the world's three major shipping groups.

It controls more than a quarter of the world's shipping lines.

Strength.

But why is it that the president of a Jockey Club, a Hong Kong Island upperclass that can join, has been rejected several times in a row by the top 200 CEOs of the world's top 500 groups?

All because above him, the Danish Maersk Group and the Mediterranean Shipping Group, which share almost three-quarters of the remaining shipping lines in the world, and are also involved in most of the world's oil and gas extraction, its strength can be seen.

And the two groups have one thing in common, that is, their presidents, all of whom are members of the Hong Kong Island Jockey Club.

This is equivalent to the two groups belonging to the same circle.

And this circle is the Jockey Club.

At the same time, when you think about why the Jockey Club rejected Adolf Martin, it becomes clear.

I just don't want to take you to play.

In today's environment of trade globalization, there is only one result of any group being isolated by its peers, that is, chronic death, and then resources are divided between two large shipping groups, so as to achieve the effect of capital unification.

However, if the Su family is allowed to join the Jockey Club and get to know the presidents of the two major shipping groups under Zhao Sheng's guidance, or even stand on the same front with them, the help to the Su family's business will be immeasurable.

"What President Zhao said is that I have also heard that in recent years, the goods of Feida Group have not been a problem once or twice, for any shipping group, the loss of goods is not only an accident of the group, but also the loss of the owner of the goods, for a long time, Feida Group will definitely lose its trust in capital, and will eventually be abandoned by capital and disappear in the long river of history. ”

Su Xiuyuan hesitated for a moment, then said with a smile.

Zhao Sheng looked at him when he heard this, and asked with a smile: "It seems that the Su family is very interested in the shipping business, I don't know what you are doing now?"

"Global Trade & Shipping!"

Su Xiuyuan replied almost immediately.

"Our Su family not only masters three of the top ten ports in China, but also actively cooperates with the world's top shipping groups, but you know the situation in Huaxia, foreign capital markets are not optimistic about us, and there is no support from a noble person like Mr. Zhao, although the plan is good, but it is still very difficult to implement......

Su Xiuyuan let out a long sigh, looking a little like a strong man has ended.

"That's it......" Zhao Sheng nodded and said, "Since the Su family is so interested in the shipping business, then you might as well wait for me to go and talk to a few members of the Maersk Group after I return to Hong Kong Island this time, and listen to them say that the current global shipping expansion is just as short as Huaxia, but you also said that because of the special situation in Huaxia, many simple things cannot be solved simply, but your Su family is different, as one of the four major families in Yanjing, you must have the ability to solve this simple problem, right?"

Su Xiuyuan was almost about to cry.

He originally prepared a big bag of words and benefits to promise Zhao Sheng in private, just so that after he returned to Hong Kong Island, he could say a word to the presidents of the two major groups on behalf of the Su family, and strive for a slim chance of possible cooperation in the next ten years.

But now......

Su Xiuyuan didn't say a word, hurriedly drank the champagne in his hand, and said with excitement on his face: "I really don't know how to express my respect for Mr. Zhao, if you have time, I dare to invite you to deign to our Su family as a guest, although the Su family is not big, but will definitely receive Mr. Zhao according to the highest etiquette, you are simply the lucky star of our Su family......"

"Okay, do business, mutual benefit, this set is free in private, my assistant will ask you for a phone call at the end of the dinner, and if there is any news at that time, I will ask the assistant to contact you." Zhao Sheng waved his hand absently and interrupted him.

"Yes, yes, Su Xiuyuan, on behalf of the entire Su family, is waiting for your dispatch. ”

Su Xiuyuan said excitedly, and at the same time secretly rejoiced, since the family's business problems could be solved, then he could notify the family master now, and the Su family could abandon all distractions and concentrate on helping the Dragon Gang and dealing with Qin Fan's affairs with the Shen family.

After Su Xiu walked away, the other people around Zhao Sheng also rushed forward and began to introduce themselves.

"Hello Mr. Zhao, I am Jin Ming from the Jin family, and I am currently in charge of the family's import and export business, do you have a chance to join your Jockey Club and become a distinguished member of the Jockey Club......

"I am from the Bai family, although our Bai family is a family of martial arts, but we also have some business ...... abroad."

"And our Su family, I am the person in charge of the Su family's special charge of LYG port......"

“……”

For a moment, the whole hall became lively.

After everyone saw that Su Xiuyuan easily got a cooperation opportunity in Zhao Sheng's hands that might have a syntactic impact on the future, they were eager to try it and crowded around Zhao Sheng, trying to sell themselves and the family business.

Especially the Jin family, knowing that the Dragon Gang is not very good with the Jockey Club at the moment, relying on the position of the head of the four major families, everyone has rushed up, gossiping, a huge Jinghua Mansion, which is no different from the farmers' market at the moment.

Only Jin Lan stood silently outside the crowd, looked at the blocked water, sighed, lifted the skirt of the mopping floor with her hand, found the opportunity to get into the crowd, and then quickly walked to Zhao Sheng's side, and whispered in his ear: "Mr. Zhao, you have an old friend who wants to see you, I wonder if you have time now?"

"What are you doing, cutting in line, do you know how to come first and come first?"

"That's it, Jin Lan, why are you an inferior dog so unruly, can't you see so many Jin family members haven't had a chance to speak, what are you, just go directly to Mr. Zhao, beware of going back and breaking your legs, making you cause trouble everywhere......"

"Jin Lan, you give me back now, otherwise you will die!"

“……”

When everyone saw that Jin Lan actually took the lead and walked up to Zhao Sheng, everyone showed a look of disgruntle, especially the Jin family, who gritted their teeth, as if they wanted to tear her apart.

"Old friend, who is it?" Zhao Sheng turned his head and asked suspiciously.

Jin Lan hesitated for a moment, ignoring the reactions around her, and continued to whisper: "He said, you should remember what happened on the cruise ship on the high seas that night two months ago, right?"
