"I'm hungry, Fan Ping'an, why don't I invite you to dinner. Jia Lei walked out of Xinhua Bookstore and said.

"Okay, of course I won't object to someone inviting you to dinner!" what are we going to eat?" Fan Ping'an asked.

"McDonald's!" Jia Lei said as he looked at the big clown hanging upstairs next door.

"Ahem, Jia Lei, I heard me right, right? You are such a rich person who only invites me to McDonald's?" Fan Ping'an asked in disbelief.

"I'm a billionaire who eats burgers myself, do you have any questions?" Jia Lei asked back.

"No! Jia Lei, I think you will be killed sooner or later, and the dignified billionaire invites someone to eat a hamburger, and no one will believe it!" Fan Ping'an muttered.

"Some of them can't stop your mouth when they eat, let's go!" Jia Lei said, and then he walked outside McDonald's to line up.

"This McDonald's is so big?" Jia Lei said in surprise as soon as he stepped in, it is estimated that there will be tens of thousands of square meters.

According to the newspaper, this McDonald's on Chang'an Avenue is the largest McDonald's in the world, with more than 700 places on the basement and two floors above ground, and 29 cash registers alone. Fan Ping'an said proudly.

"If there are so many seats here, why are there so many people queuing outside?" Jia Lei asked.

"Of course, it's because the location of Chang'an Avenue is good and the business is good! Don't you find that you can directly see the Forbidden City from the windows here? How many tourists have visited the Forbidden City in a year, can there not be many people here?" Fan Ping'an pointed out the window and said.

"It seems that this is indeed the case! This is terrible......" Jia Lei pinched his eyebrows and said with a headache.

"What, does McDonald's business have anything to do with you?" Fan Ping'an asked puzzled.

"Of course there is, this McDonald's is right on the land of my project! You say that it is so big and the business is so good, can you really agree to the demolition of others......" Jia Lei asked with a special headache.

"I shouldn't agree, the business here is so good that you can earn millions a day, who would let you smash your golden job." Fan Ping'an immediately nodded and said.

"It seems that this matter is really difficult to handle, I don't know if the Dong family can have a way to move McDonald's out in the future, anyway, I can't help it! I'll take a look at it today, and I'll leave these things to the Dong family in the future." Jia Lei said.

"Jia Lei, you said that you would invite me to dinner, but are you actually here to find out about the enemy?

"I'm not lying, I'm going to invite you to dinner. Let's go and order food, whatever you like, you can eat as much as you want, and I'll pay the bill!" Jia Lei immediately said doggedly.

"Why don't you regret it later...... Fan Ping'an glanced at Jia Lei and said, and then he walked to the front of the cash register.

"Give me 100 of your most expensive set meals, including drinks and chips!" Fan Ping'an said.

"Poof!100 servings?, Fan Ping'an, have you eaten so much?" asked Jia Lei in surprise.

"I can't eat alone, but I still have a lot of brothers, and there are a lot of bodyguards sent to you this time, although you didn't see it, it doesn't mean that they are not there. Fan Ping'an pointed outside and said.

"I still know how many pounds and taels I have, and no matter how much I pay attention to me, at most I will arrange a dozen or twenty people, is your 100 people too exaggerated?" Jia Lei asked.

"Although it is true that the number of my brothers is less than 100, they are very good at eating! and they have wives and children, parents and brothers at home, so I want to pack some for them and take them home. Fan Ping'an said.

"Damn, Fan Ping'an, are you eating a big family?" asked Jia Lei.

"That's right, anyway, this money is just a drop in the bucket for you, and you can't slaughter it for nothing. Fan Ping'an said with a smile, he looked at Jia Lei like a fat sheep.

"You...... You ......" Jia Lei was almost mad when he heard this, and it took him a long time to suppress this breath.

"Forget it! Anyway, those brothers of yours are working very hard to protect me, you can slaughter if you want! It is better to be slaughtered by you soldiers than by those powerful people, at least your brothers will say thank you after I send my things out. Jia Lei sighed and said.

"You're right! I don't know where you got these life insights, and you are almost as old as my father when you speak at a young age. Fan Ping'an agreed.

"The world is difficult, survival is not easy, and there will naturally be more ...... to understand," Jia Lei said, and then he took the people away.

Oh, and he took away a bunch of hamburgers!

Jia Lei's own bodyguard didn't eat at noon......

*****

Jia Lei didn't suddenly have the feeling that it was difficult to survive in the world, but too many people have come to disturb and beg him recently.

Recently, the cash flow of the financial industry has been tight, and many people have projects that are no longer sustainable without the support of banks

So some well-informed and well-known people in the capital knew that Jia Lei had a large amount of money in his hand, so they asked for a relationship to come to Jia Lei for financing.

"I'm sorry, I'm planning to open a new project on Chang'an Avenue recently, and I don't have extra money to invest, so please go back!" Jia Lei politely refused to say to the guest who came to the door, and he said this sentence for the eighth time today.

Ordinary people can't even look at Jia Lei's face when they come to attract investment, but the relationship behind him is too hard, Jia Lei has to see him and politely refuse.

"Our company's real estate project in Haidian District is good, don't you really plan to invest one or two million US dollars?" said the person persistently.

"Don't look at the money I have in my hand, but I also invest a lot in new projects, my own money is not enough at all, and I still have to invest outside!" Jia Lei cried poorly.

"Well, since you don't have any money, then I won't force it. Farewell!" As soon as the visitor heard Jia Lei say that he had no money, he immediately turned his face and left.

"Jia Lei, are you really short of money lately?" Professor Wang asked worriedly, recently Jia Lei has been crying every day for the poor, and his old man is actually serious.

"Because you keep asking me, I won't tell lies, in fact, I'm not short of money!" Jia Lei replied.

"Since you are not short of money, then why do you still want to attract investment?" Professor Wang asked puzzled.

"What I lack is a reputation for connections! Doing business in our country is not just about having money, the land in Wangfujing is too big, and the location there is very sensitive, and ordinary people can't afford such a big project.

Your grandson and I have a few stinky money at best, and I definitely can't compare to the two Li Dong families in terms of influence in the government, so I will cooperate with them. Jia Lei explained.

"You said that you lack connections in your development project, so can't Mr. Wang help? No matter what you say, he is also his grandson?" Professor Wang asked.

"I can't my grandfather, in fact, the political impact of this matter is too high, most of the families and businesses in China can't do it, and there are dozens of organs and units under various departments on that piece of land, how can you let me demolish it."

Moreover, in order to win the hearts of the people on Hong Kong Island, the above also intends to let the Dong family meddle in this land, and by the way, advertise the country's determination to attract investment.

At present, most Hong Kong and foreign businessmen are still waiting to see what kind of projects they can get and what preferential treatment they will get.

The government will definitely give some special preferential treatment to the Dong and Li families, so as to attract overseas investors, if only rely on my relationship, this land will not be developed for the rest of my life. After all, it's Chang'an Street!" Jia Lei said.

"You're right! Chang'an Avenue is indeed different, but anyone can do business there, and that used to be Yujie. Professor Wang nodded.

How difficult is it to do business on Chang'an Avenue?

Jia Lei squinted his eyes and recalled the development of Oriental Plaza in his previous life, which took 7 years to finally complete.

Jia Lei remembered that the construction of Oriental Plaza was stopped twice for various reasons, and the longest one was even suspended for two years, you must know that the Li family had become the richest man on Hong Kong Island, the elder brother of the Dong family had become the first person on Hong Kong Island, and the connections of other shareholders of Oriental Plaza should not be underestimated.

In this way, the Oriental Plaza project was almost delayed by various reasons, Jia Lei didn't think that his small body could be harder than these few combined, and one person could swallow such a big pie.

Sometimes the bread is so big that it chokes people to death!

The biggest advantage of Jia Lei is that he is self-aware, he knows how to be measured, and he can strive for the greatest interests for himself in limited choices.

Jia Lei's conditions for the Dong family last time were just right, and he was sure that the Dong family would come back to him sooner or later to talk, because no matter who wanted to develop there, they had to get the land in Jia Lei's hands first.

Sure enough, the day came quickly.

"Young Master Jia, I have already mentioned your request to my cousin and them, and they agreed to develop this project with you. Zhang Peiwei said to Jia Lei with a smile.

"I'm not surprised by this result, and I knew you would agree to this request when I made it. Jia Lei nodded and said.

"Although we have agreed to the matter of cooperative development, we still need to discuss the matter of the proportion of shares. I think it's better for all of us to divide the shares according to the amount of investment in the development project. Miss Zhou said.

"Oh, why does Miss Zhou have any opinion on the proportion of shares I propose? You must know that this land and the project are mine, and I only need 30% of the shares, which is not too much. Jia Lei said.

"But Mr. Li and the Dong family had already found several investors for this project before you intervened, so we can't get them all out now.

The partners we are looking for are all powerful companies, and if they account for too little of the shares in this project, I am afraid they will be unhappy, so the Dong and Li families will offend people!

We also have a last resort to do this, so Mr. Li hopes that you can reduce your shareholding ratio a little more. Miss Zhou explained.

"You said that Li Dong and his family have already found other partners, is it inconvenient for you to tell me the names of those partners?" Jia Lei asked.

"Yes. In fact, our investment group was personally recruited by your government to Hong Kong Island in February, and your government was very enthusiastic and gave us a lot of projects and choices.

Whether it is the investment or the construction of the wharf road, it is a good cooperation project, but our Dong family is most optimistic about the real estate project of Chang'an Avenue.

Because the location here is so good and there are many special significances, there are many people who are interested in this project in the Hong Kong Island Investment Group.

Since our Dong family plans to take over this project, several of the most powerful companies on Hong Kong Island are planning to join in the joint development. Miss Zhang said with a smile, and then she introduced Jia Lei to all the investors in this project.

"This project was initiated by Oriental Overseas Company (OOCL) and Lee Ka Cheung Kong (CHEEK) in collaboration with the district government, with investors including Hutchison Whampoa on Hong Kong Island, Hysan Development Company and Hsin Chong Group on Hong Kong Island.

In this plan, the Oriental Culture Company of the district government originally wanted to use 10% of the land, and Mr. Li wanted his shares to account for more than 50%, and the Xishi Industrial Company behind the Industrial Bank and the Hsin Chong Group of the Hong Kong Island Royal Family also accounted for no less than 10%, plus the 10% shares held by our Dong family, the share that can be set aside for you is only 10%!" Miss Zhang said with a smile.

"The land has now been transferred to me, and I will definitely not do it if you only let me take 10%, and the others are not moving, but Mr. Li may have too many shares, right?

In this way, I will add some investment for the later construction of the project, and I hope you can give me 20% of Mr. Li's shares, so that I can share 0%!" Jia Lei said.

"It's impossible to subtract 20% of the shares, we will give you another 10% at most, otherwise we will lose the controlling stake. Miss Zhou said nervously.

"Controlling stake?As far as I know, the proportion of the Dong family is only 10%, where did you get the controlling stake?" Jia Lei said with a smile looking at the nervous Miss Zhou.

"I'm talking about Oriental Huixian Investment Company, which was jointly established by the Dong family and several other Hong Kong Island companies, and most of the shares in this project are in the name of this company. Miss Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then immediately explained.

Jia Lei knew in his heart that the controlling stake she said was actually the richest man Li, but Jia Lei would not expose this matter now.

After all, the wife of the richest man Li has not passed away yet......

"You shouldn't have to worry about controlling stake, right? In fact, I can't get a controlling stake in this project, whether I have 20% or 30% of the project, I don't know what you're worried about?" asked Jia Lei.

"We are worried that you and others will take away the controlling stake of our Hong Kong group in the project!

You must know that if you really get 30% of the shares of this project and then attract the other two British-funded groups, then the final controlling stake of this project may not necessarily be in our hands. Miss Zhang said nervously.

"You big families on Hong Kong Island are already old friends, why are you still afraid that I will join forces with them? Don't worry, I hate trouble the most, I am only responsible for the money and land, and you will have the final say in the management and operation of this project in the future.

As long as you can distribute the dividends to me on time, I don't care who is the chairman of the board of directors, so you are still not at ease?" Jia Lei asked.

"We're a little bit more reassuring when you say that, but the 30% you want is too much, and we can give you 20% at most. Miss Zhang said.

"25% of the shares, this is my minimum bottom line! If you don't agree, I will directly find someone else to develop this project, you have the support of Industrial Bank, and I also have the support of Citibank, and I really have no shortage of money in this aspect!"

If I hadn't been too lazy to take care of these things in the country, I'm afraid I wouldn't need you to take a stake!

"Don't, don't go to anyone else, can we discuss the matter of shares?" You see that we two women can't be the master of such a big matter, why don't we react to the other people after we go back, and then give you the answer?" Miss Zhou hurriedly stopped Jia Lei and said, she had already realized that Jia Lei's bone was not easy to gnaw on.

"I'm a big man, I can't embarrass you two women! I agreed to your request, and I won't find anyone else to participate in this project for the time being. But I hope you will give me a satisfactory answer as soon as possible!" Jia Lei said.

"Okay! We'll do it as soon as possible!" Miss Zhang nodded.
