As soon as Liu Ke saw Ye Shikun, he immediately stood up with a smile and stepped forward.

"Haha, Lao Ye, how is it? Seeing that Mr. Liu and Mr. Han are there, are you surprised? I heard that you are about to officially return to Yuanfeng, today's meal, I will congratulate you! Come on, come on, take a seat. ”

Ye Shikun is also a thoughtful person, after his face changed slightly, he returned to his normal demeanor, and smiled at Liu Ke: "Mr. Liu is so well-informed? Also, your Liu family is the second shareholder of Xin'an Securities, and speaking of which, it can be regarded as one of the shareholders of Yuanfeng...... Then I'll be disrespectful!"

Before he came, several people were originally sitting on the sofa resting next to them and chatting, but at this moment, they also got up one after another, ready to officially enter the table.

Ye Shikun greeted the other two acquaintances very politely: "Uncle Liu, Uncle Han, hello!"

The two men who looked to be in their 50s at the dinner of Liu Ke's group turned out to be the two veteran directors on the board of directors of Yuanfeng Group, Liu Jianjun and Han Zhao!

These two people were also the main figures of the veteran faction who were most dissatisfied with Ye Shikun's reform and "kicked out" him from the board of directors before Yuanfeng!

Ye Shikun really didn't expect that they would appear here.

As he sat down with a smile on his face, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

Before Chen Bo inadvertently said in his speech that the director who proposed him to return to Yuanfeng was actually the director of the veteran faction who opposed his reform before, Ye Shikun felt a little wrong, according to common sense, they joined forces to "kick out" Ye Shikun Yuanfeng, and behind it was the conflict of interests of the "old and new" factions within Yuanfeng.

And that's not the same now......

After Ye Shikun returns to Yuanfeng, whether it is in personnel or business, he will always continue to reform.

Originally, his plan was to lure or require, or to relent, and slowly deal with these veteran factions, but he didn't expect that the directors of the veteran faction actually took the initiative to extend an olive branch to him.

was first in the board of directors, and took the initiative to propose that he return, and now he still appears at the dinner where Liu Ke asked him......

What the hell did they have in mind?

The only thing Ye Shikun confirmed was that this matter was by no means simple.

You must know that the two veterans here hold a total of 7.7% of the shares of Yuanfeng Group.

The two companies of Xin'an Securities and Quam Fund under the Liu family behind Liu Ke together hold 13.2% of Yuanfeng's shares.

In other words, the people in front of them add up to nearly 21% of Yuanfeng's equity.

Ye Shikun remembered again that the last time he saw Liu Ke, he had said: "Let's discuss a way to make money together......

What is the way to make money?

Looking at the scene of these people in front of him, think about the impression that Liu Ke usually leaves on everyone.

Ye Shikun is not stupid, what idea Liu Ke wants to play, it is almost ready to come out!

Ye Shikun sneered in his heart, his expression did not move, waiting to see how Liu Ke was going to "make peace" with him.

…………

"Old Liu, take out the wine I prepared for Ye Dashao!" Liu Ke ordered with a smile.

There was no entourage at this dinner, and Liu Qirui, deputy general manager of Xin'an Securities and director of Yuanfeng Group, actually got up like a little brother to get the wine. Of course, the specific work of opening and sobering up is naturally done by the waiter in the private room, and he just brought it over for Ye Shikun to appreciate.

Ye Shikun's eyes narrowed slightly.

From this small detail, you can see Liu Ke's status in the Liu family system.

Seeing the three 1.5-liter bottles that Liu Qirui brought over and placed on the table, Ye Shikun's eyes lit up.

Since Cornell University's freshman year, he has been able to take the "Introduction to Wine" wine tasting class, which is famous all over the United States, and Ye Shikun's habit of liking red wine was developed at that time.

His own family has a strong foundation, and he has made a lot of money over the years, and in the process of playing life and enjoying life, he has naturally tasted countless fine wines.

However, the three bottles that Liu Ke took out today are indeed extraordinary.

First of all, the bottle turned out to be Salon champagne from 1964.

Founded in 1911, Salon Champagne is the world's most unique champagne, known as the "King of Champagne" because of its dedication to a single grape variety (100% Chardonnay) in a single vineyard (100% Le Mesnil-sur-Oger).

Keep in mind that even in the first century, Salon Champagne was only produced for thirty-seven years.

Its ageing potential is impressive, usually reaching its peak after the age of 20, and its particularly long-lived vintages such as 1979, 1988 and 1996 are not a problem to age for 50 years.

And for the earlier vintages, they are even rarer!

Not to mention the large package...... , because the wine in large packages has a stronger aging potential.

The 1964 Salon (1.5-liter bottle), as far as Ye Shikun knows, will not be at least 80,000 yuan a bottle at auction.

Liu Ke's handiwork to entertain him tonight is really not small......

Seeing the second bottle, Ye Shikun was shocked again, and this bottle of wine was by no means a reaction: the chapel of the 1961 vintage!

Paul Jaboulet A?né La Chapelle 1961 from the Hermitage appellation in the northern Rhône Valley of France has been praised by countless wine critics as "one of the greatest wines of the 20th century" and "a legendary wine".

Robert Parker, the world's number one wine critic, gave it a 100, Jancis Robinson, the first lady of the wine kingdom, gave it a 20, and the Wine Spectator, the most famous wine review magazine, gave it a 100.

The Wine Cellar Insider, which also gave the wine a perfect score, recorded in 2009 that the wine retains its intense color after nearly 50 years of bottle ageing! This perfect Hermitage dry red wine exudes olive grove notes – full of aromas of green olives, black olives, earth and trees, with complex aromas of truffle, burnt toast, toast, tobacco, licorice, citrus fruits, woodland and soy sauce. On the palate it is intense and concentrated, with rich, full-bodied ripe black fruit and complex layers of mineral flavours that are both powerful and elegant. The finish is pure and very long. The palate is reminiscent of the same 1961 Chateau Latour, Pauillac, France...... A legendary wine...... It's the wine of dreams......

And this 1.5-liter bottle of 61-year-old chapel, because there are too few in existence, the price is as high as 230,000 yuan!

Ye Shikun's face also changed a little.

It's not because of the rarity of wine, but because Liu Ke put so much effort into it, in order to cater to his preference for red wine, to open such a good wine, the more so, the more small the plan.

As for the third bottle, the Victory Day Mouton of the 1945 vintage, Ye Shikun was already numb......

Nima, this is the real "wine of the century", okay!?

Numerous master sommeliers have given this wine a 100 and consider it the best Bordeaux wine of the 20th century. In particular, in 1945, in order to celebrate the end of the Second World War, Château Mouton invited Philippe Julian to paint a painting called V For Victory as the label of the bottle.

As for the price...... In 1997, a 5-litre bottle of Mouton was sold for up to $114614 at Christie's auction house in London.

Arguably, this is one of the best and most expensive red wines of the 20th century!

Liu Ke, you are so awesome, does your old man know?

All right...... If you dare to bring out such a good wine, don't I dare to drink it?

I opened the bottle of 64-year-old champagne as an aperitif.

Liu Ke was calm, raised his glass frequently, and casually chatted about some gossip in the capital circle, not in a hurry to get to the point.

Ye Shikun doesn't care, he should drink and eat.

Anyway, no matter how many circles Liu Ke goes around, he still has to talk about business in the end, but he wants to see what he wants to do when he puts on such a big battle?

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

Liu Ke saw that Ye Shikun always looked calm and did not take the initiative to ask questions, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this guy was calm, and he really deserved to be the top figure in the second generation.

Only then did he laugh and said, "Old Ye, aren't you curious, why are your two uncles also here tonight?"

Ye Shikun smiled slightly: "Mr. Liu, you have a wide network and a big face, so it's not strange to invite Uncle Liu and Uncle Han to come...... , If I guessed correctly, this time Uncle Liu and Uncle Han reversed their previous attitude against me and proposed that I return to Yuanfeng, is there also your Mr. Liu's meaning in it?"

Liu Ke laughed and slapped the table: "Lao Ye, you are really a smart person! Yes, I don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, this time it is indeed my idea!"

He raised his hand and pointed at Liu Qirui of Xin'an Securities: "Lao Liu, you also know, it is the representative of our Jingrui Real Estate sent to Xin'an Securities, and the directors of Xin'an Securities who sent your Yuanfeng to exercise rights on behalf of shareholders, Mr. Liu and Mr. Han are also the shareholders and directors of your Yuanfeng, plus Quam Fund, we have a total of 21% of the shares here, and all of them will support you in the board of directors!"

"Well, this sincerity is okay, right?"

Ye Shikun stopped the tableware in his hand, leaned back, nodded and smiled: "Indeed, I didn't expect that unknowingly, Mr. Liu has been able to influence 20% of the shareholders, and there are at least 3 votes on the board of directors, which is a very influential force...... In this case, Mr. Liu put on such a big "sincerity", what kind of cooperation do you want to talk about with me?"

Liu Ke thought that Ye Shikun was tempted, and said with a smile: "Then I will say it directly, Lao Ye, you are very powerful, I have been paying attention to you in the past two years, you and several of your partners, the achievements in the Internet, finance, investment and other aspects in the past two years are really breathtaking! When it comes to making money, you are this!"

He gave a thumbs up.

"To put it bluntly, brother, I just want to make money with you, you return to Yuanfeng, there are several benefits, first, Yuanfeng's stock price has been falling during this time, and it has come to the time when you need to have a major operation, and your return is a huge benefit!

Second, I believe that you and your team have the vision and strength in finance and investment, as long as you can bring us along, I and Mr. Liu and Mr. Han will unconditionally support you in the board of directors!

Third, I have carefully studied the Yuanfeng Group, at present, the shareholding ratio of our top ten shareholders is as high as nearly 70%, in this case, it is very easy to operate, and such a large market value of Yuanfeng, such a concentrated share, and there are not many listed companies with solid fundamentals, as long as we work together, how high can we pull the stock price of Yuanfeng, how high can we pull it!

He said happily, but Ye Shikun's face remained the same.

It's basically the same as he guessed, but I didn't expect Liu Ke to still want to sit on Zhuang Yuanfeng?

CNMD, what do you take my old man's hard work for?

I remembered what my father had asked him not long ago: "What is the difference between an entrepreneur and a capitalist".

Liu Ke is a typical capitalist, just to make quick money, without the slightest entrepreneurial spirit!

Liu Ke picked up the 45-year-old Mouton that had been awakened, the waiter had already prepared a new wine glass, and he said with a smile while pouring the wine: "Old Ye, do you know why I spent a lot of money to buy this bottle of Victory Day Mouton?

He raised his wine glass and smiled at Ye Shikun: "How about we join forces, we will unconditionally support all your decisions on the board of directors of Yuanfeng, so that you can smoothly enter the company, and you will make a lot of money with us!"

Ye Shikun picked up the wine glass, shook the red wine in the glass, lowered his head and took a sip lightly, then frowned slightly, picked up the napkin, spit the red wine in his mouth on the napkin, and threw the napkin on the table.

shook his head: "The banquet is not a good banquet, the wine is originally a good wine, but this last bottle is not a good wine......"

With that, he got up and walked straight out of the room.

Liu Ke looked at his back as he turned to leave, stunned.

After half a ring, he looked back at Liu Jianjun, Han Zhao and the others with pale faces, and asked a little incredulously: "What does this kid mean?...... Did he reject me?"
