Chapter 544: Reasons to Join

When Lin Fan and Guo Kongcheng and others had a good conversation, Li Ka-shing and two old men came belatedly, these two are also extraordinary, one is the President of the Bank of East Asia, Li Guoquan, and the other is Lee Shau-kee, the father of Li Jiajie. However, it can also be seen from here that Guo Kongcheng has taken over the control of the company from his father.

"Lin Sheng, you must be familiar with these two, right?"

"Of course, my generation grew up hearing about the legends of the two. Lee Shau Kee, as one of the four major families of Hong Kong people, is more well-known in Hong Kong, and although Lee Kwok Chuen is a descendant of the founding family of the Bank of East Asia, the influence of the Bank of East Asia is mainly in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, which is far from a world bank like Citi.

Lee Shau Kee is now 90 years old, he only smiled slightly when he heard the words, and the wrinkles on his face were very heavy, but his spirit was not bad, which has to say that the vitality of Hong Kong's rich people is really tenacious. Ninety years old is normal, and a hundred years old is not a lot, Run Run Shaw, Li Ka-shing, Lee Shau Kee are all like this.

Li Guoquan is much younger, "Lin Sheng praised, compared to a rookie like you, we are all old." I want to do more business together while I can still move. ”

Li Ka-shing bowed, "This is also the intention of I to bring everyone together, although our respective companies are getting bigger and bigger, laziness and slackness will still drag us into the abyss." ”

"We don't really have a time to rest unless we go into the grave. Lin Fan said on the side.

The crowd clapped their hands and laughed. Rich people are never the image of enjoyment in everyone's impression, on the contrary, they are very diligent, which is the inevitable payment of wealth.

Li Ka-shing, as the initiator of the rally, began to speak, "We are all people who have made great achievements in our respective fields, and our respective companies have developed business in dozens of countries around the world, and this time we are targeting one region: Southeast Asia. ”

Lin Fan showed a trace of confusion on his face when he heard this, Southeast Asia? When it comes to this, Lin Fan's first impression is poverty, and the other is anti-Chinese. However, when it comes to business, Lin Fan thinks of the resources and various abundant raw materials here. Do you have to get involved in the mining industry or the primary industry?

"Southeast Asia is rich in resources, but many countries do not have the ability to exploit and develop, insufficient finance, lack of talent and weak industrial base limit their development, in many ways they are still stuck in primitive, this is where we enter. ”

Lin Fan didn't ask, he believed that Li Ka-shing would definitely explain.

Sure enough, Li Ka-shing's expression was a little bright, "So we will set up a heavy enterprise that spans minerals, raw materials, energy, mobile communications, infrastructure and other aspects." This is a return to the old business for many of us, Hutchison Whampoa has a lot of experience in mobile communications and infrastructure, Henderson is skilled in the energy development process, the Kwok family started out in the mineral and raw materials industry, and the Bank of East Asia, as the largest and most influential bank in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, can help us provide financial support. ”

Everyone had a look of clarity on their faces, obviously they had a tacit understanding of this, so what role could Lin Fan play? To be honest, when Li Ka-shing was talking about this issue, Lin Fan was thinking, there is no doubt that although Internet companies absorb funds quickly, heavy enterprises such as infrastructure can really affect the national economy and people's livelihood...... People can do without the convenience of online shopping, but they can't lose it.

But Lin Fan's subsidiaries are all cultural industries, whether it is mortal media or mortal technology, they lack real products.

Lin Fan really couldn't think of it, and Li Jiajie and others also looked at Lin Fan, and they were also very confused about Li Ka-shing's sudden invitation to Lin Fan to join. And Li Ka-shing has never confided the reason, but Li Ka-shing suddenly smiled, "Lin Sheng, why do you think I invited you to join?"

Lin Fan naturally would not show his timidity at this time, and if he wanted to occupy an important position in this group, he must also show his fangs, so Lin Fan cocked his legs, leaned on the sofa, and smiled very calmly, "You are all related to the specific business of the newly established group, and I can only give full play to my advantages from other places."

For example, in terms of capital, I am now spending $5 billion to acquire 15% of PepsiCo's global shares, and $5 billion to become the owner of Master Kong, injecting new vitality into my mortal industry. In the short term, I should only be able to raise a few billion dollars, but if I get to May next year, I may be able to withdraw 10 billion euros. ”

Except for Li Ka-shing, everyone else was shocked, they had long known that Lin Fan was rich, but they didn't expect Lin Fan to be so rich. No one will think that Lin Fan is lying, because these things can be obtained by asking for verification, then Lin Fan is really a terrifying money monster! This is still fucking denominated in euros! As we all know, even if a person worth tens of billions wants to come up with billions of cash, it is very difficult for Lin Fan to easily take out the living money comparable to the net worth of everyone here.

Li Ka-shing coughed twice, making everyone wake up from their gaffes, "Lin Sheng, take the liberty of asking, Dadi Group?"

Lin Fan glanced at Li Ka-shing, who had a serious face, and said lightly, "It was a gadget that I invested tens of billions of dollars with a few like-minded friends a few years ago, at least we won't touch any money in it for fifty years, he will only develop forever until he becomes a monster in our minds." ”

Guo Kongcheng lowered his head, he was not the only one who did this, only in this way could he hide the fear in his eyes, and he could imagine how strong the strength of this earth group would be now, and he might have been able to collapse a country's economy at will.

"Lin Sheng is really terrifying. ”

Lin Fan smiled indifferently, and said seriously, "This is all off-topic, or can I bring something to the group, such as providing some security services for the group?

Li Guoquan immediately laughed, how could he not see that Lin Fan was joking, he was deliberately alleviating the shock he had just brought him, "Lin Sheng, we are going to do business, not robbery." ”

Lin Fan spread his hands helplessly, "Okay, then I don't seem to be able to help anything other than providing funds?"

Li Ka-shing smiled, "Why should Lin Sheng underestimate his own energy, I admire Lin Sheng's means and abilities very much, mortal technology can provide us with mobile network technical support, mortal media can cooperate with the authorities, shoot some film and television works to promote the local scenery and image, these things, Lin Sheng is responsible." ”

Lin Fan smiled, "I obey Mr. Li's arrangement." ”
