Link didn't put forward any excessive conditions, which made Mr. Jiang's heart feel relieved, but he was still suspicious. Because Link is so kind.

But no matter what he thinks, Link is the only place he can raise money. Unless he abandons plans for the expansion of the television station. Once he gives up, it's a failure. There will be no second chance for a failed project.

So he couldn't refuse Link's "kindness".

Link asked McCully to sign a loan agreement with Mr. Chiang on his behalf—a more formal IOU.

That's what he wanted.

He felt that Mr. Chiang's expansion of American Chinese television was too aggressive.

Perhaps Mr. Jiang is worried that other shareholders may interrupt the project at any time, so he wants to cut through the mess quickly.

Snapton's previous investigation of Meiya Media showed that Meiya Media has a position of promoting Chinese ideas to all Americans. But in fact, apart from the Chinese, almost no one of other ethnic groups watches Chinese TV.

In fact, American Chinese television is only a media aimed at the Chinese. Because of this, American Chinese television is seen by those shareholders as a tool to promote itself among the Chinese. That is inconsistent with the position of Mr. Jiang or the Jiang family. Shareholders only need the TV station to cover the main Chinese concentration areas. They are not willing to use a lot of money to expand the signal transmission network of TV stations.

Mr. Jiang thinks completely differently from them, and he hopes that Meiya Media can become bigger and stronger, and not just a local media for ethnic minorities. He also saw what the shareholders were thinking. Therefore, he promoted this share expansion and strongly advocated that all the funds be used for the expansion of the TV station.

It's just that Link didn't expect that $100 million to be used so quickly. So he thinks Mr. Chiang must be radical.

The network has been added, but there may not be users, and it takes money to maintain the network, and Mr. Jiang seems to want to continue to expand.

As long as the position of those shareholders does not waver, Meiya Media can only continue to borrow, or stop the expansion of the TV station. He was betting that the Jiang family would stick to it. As long as the Meiya Group continues to borrow from him. He has a chance to get control of the Meiya Group, at least, he can get American Chinese TV.

As for the money? Will he be short of it? Now to lend money to the Meiya Group is to ask a professional person to help him lay a network.

After this incident, he asked Martha to take over the affairs of Meiya Media. That way he would be able to keep track of what they were going on.

Two days after the loan from Meiya Media, Brad also signed a cooperation contract with CF. The two sides also held a press conference together. It's a means of publicity, and of course it will let everyone know that they have this cooperation.

This also includes everyone who sees Link as an opponent.

"It seems that we are all wrong. Link Hans can't be as petty as we think!"

Outside an estate on the outskirts of St. Louis, a long-faced, bald old man with a gloomy face said, "We thought he would be content with the weed market, but now he's putting his hand on fertilizer." Maybe the next step is seeds. ”

A middle-aged man is half-leaning on the sofa, holding a wine glass in his hand, and the ice cubes in the brown liquor in the wine glass are in his eyes. After a long time he said, "It seems that we have made a mistake. ”

The old man's face became even more gloomy.

It wasn't a mistake, it was his failure. If it weren't for the car accident at about the same time between his top management and those well-connected politicians, and some politicians who were afraid to speak up because of the leak, he would never have allowed Benihans to promote the Amaranth virus as if no one was around. But there are no ifs.

When he relieved himself, the sales of Amaranth virus were unstoppable. He was then forced to back down and continue to wait for his chance.

Prior to this, Benehans had applied for a patent for improved seeds. But it was wheat seeds, which were not a major market for their company, and he could just wait for Link's wheat seeds to hit the market. Unexpectedly, Link did not promote his wheat seeds, but instead negotiated a pollution-free food standard with a group of farmers in Texas.

That's to cut off their business from the roots. Therefore, they don't want to provoke Link head-on for the time being, and only concentrate on dealing with the standard of pollution-free.

None of that was active was him, but passive. That was an undeniable failure for him in the United States for 30 years in agriculture.

"I don't think there's any point in talking about this now," he muttered. The point is that CF Industries has certainly identified Lynk Hans's wheat seeds as having achieved high yields. ”

If it weren't for that, they wouldn't have invested in a green manure plant.

"So what? You're mainly corn, and you're still making vegetables. We specialize in soybeans. Wheat has never been our main market. ”

If there is one major crop in the United States that has not been completely taken over by GMOs, it is wheat. The rejection of GMOs by wheat farmers is very strong. Both companies tried to implement it, but both were resisted.

"If you know that Benehans has applied for good seeds, it already includes corn, soybeans, wheat, rice and alfalfa. You probably don't think so. ”

"I remember they applied for a patent last year, but it hasn't been promoted yet. Maybe they're in trouble. It is not easy to breed a market-ready seed with genetically modified organisms. We all know this. "The middle-aged man seems to have no idea what Benehans is good for. "What's more, they flaunt that they are against GMO, so they may be trying to find a way to erase the traces of GMO. But you know, that's not possible. ”

"In this matter, I don't dare to judge by 'maybe'!" the bald old man's two gray brows furrowed. "We can't make it so easy for him anymore. ”

"What are you going to do?"

"Here's what we're supposed to do!" the old man didn't want to let him go. "He's our common enemy! not just mine. ”

"Okay. So what do you think we should do?"

The bald old man smiled mysteriously and said, "He likes to stir up the public! That's a good way to do it." ”

At the same time, Link is also entertaining Albert.

Albert had just finished his work in Argentina and rushed to Ozette first. He's here to talk to Link about his plans for this year's winemaking.

In fact, he mainly wanted to explain to Link that he was going to make more wine at Hans Farm this year, and reduce the brewing time at Hanova Farm.

Link had already heard Robert Baggio talk about it. He didn't have a problem with that.

Albert communicated with him, and seeing that he had no opinion, he joked and said, "I don't think you plan to attend this year's wine competition." ”

Jessica's due date coincided with the Wine Competition, and he felt that Link would definitely not leave the United States during that time.

Link nodded and said, "You know, I can't leave!"

"I heard that when the ancient Chinese gave birth to a child, the father would ask someone or make some wine with his own hands to save it for use at the wedding banquet when the child grew up. Do you have any plans for sake brewing this year?"

It was the first time Link had heard of this ancient custom. He smiled and asked, "Is there really such a custom?"

"You know, we're winemakers. However, it is also important to learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, and it is also important to learn about the brewing techniques of each country and understand the history of winemaking in each country. ”

"The Chinese made wine in ancient times?"

"Haha, of course not. In fact, in China, whether ancient or modern, the main market for liquor is baijiu or other brewed liquors. Later distilled spirits appeared. Their distilled spirits appeared much earlier than in the West. ”

Hearing him say this, Link became interested and asked, "What kind of wine do they mainly make?"

"Liquor made from grains. And, of course, rice wine. ”

"Unfortunately I won't. ”

"But you make wine. Albert said with a smile. "I think if you make a batch of sake for your own children, when the children grow up, it will definitely feel very meaningful. When my three children were born, I would make some sake and seal it away. ”

Link touched his nose and said, "Then it seems that I should brew some too." Of course, it was impossible to sell that kind of wine, so he didn't have to make too much.

"It looks like we can work together again this year. ”

Link smiled and said, "Then when do you plan to come to the United States again?" I'm good at making arrangements. "The grapes are not fully ripe yet, and Albert doesn't need to stay in the United States, he can go back to Italy for a holiday and then go to China to compete in the World Wine Squeeze & Spirits Competition.

"I came a week before the grapes ripened. ”

After he had been chatting with Albert for a while, Link pulled out a check.

Albert took the check, looked at the numbers, smiled and sighed, "It seems that I can retire completely." "The number in the check is almost nine figures. This is the commission he deserves for a brewing year. For every bottle of wine he makes, Link gets a share of the royalty. His commission share is not very large, but he has received nearly 100 million dollars. And there are other winemaker wines as well. You can imagine how much money Link has earned from selling wine in the past year.

He felt at least five or six billion dollars.

But he didn't ask Link these sensitive questions. He unceremoniously put the check away and said with a smile, "But I don't want to give up my beloved winemaking business." Maybe I can make a few hundred million more before I think about retiring. ”

In fact, he was considering whether to give up his other job and devote himself to making wine for Link alone. The rest of the work didn't add up to a tenth of what he got from Link.

Link laughed and said, "You can spend most of the year on vacation, and when you feel tired from vacation, come and help me make wine." ”

"Haha, I'm thinking about that as well. Albert laughed. He paused, then added. "I'll have to talk to Alyssa for a while before I leave. ”

Link immediately said, "I'll have someone take you!"

Albert stayed in Ozette for a day before leaving. And Link is back to his normal life. Jessica's emotions have been tangled up for some time ago, but recently they have been thinking about it. Link always stayed at home, and she was rushed to the company. And he was also thinking about the integration of the company, so he was not hypocritical, and resumed his life at home in the morning and work in the afternoon.

That afternoon, he was looking at documents in the company's office.

He received a call from the general manager of Benehans, who did not want to discuss the company's work with him, but reminded him to watch the news.
