"Senior, you came to Shenhai City in person this time, which shows that Nancy Group attaches great importance to the cooperation with Berkeshi Investment Bank. Lin Zicong sipped red wine and smiled.

For this, Edison Qiao did not hide it, and nodded: "Berkexi is one of the top ten investment banks in the world, and this time it has publicly expressed its intention to find partners to participate in the bidding of Huaxia Tower. “

At this point, he changed his mind: "By the way, Lin Shao, your Lin Group is the leader of the commercial real estate industry in Shenhai City, haven't you thought about intervening and playing?"

Lin Zicong was slightly stunned, and then showed a little helplessness: "Before, Lin's Group also planned to participate in the bidding of TEDA Plaza, but as a result, it gave up halfway for various reasons, and for this reason, Lin's stock price evaporated nearly 20 billion in three days. He shook his head bitterly.

Edison Joe smiled meaningfully and didn't comment much, so he put on the posture of the host's house and greeted warmly: "Come, let's not patronize and chat, chat while eating." ”

I don't know if it's intentional or not, the next meal time, Edison Joe's words didn't involve business at all, he was completely reminiscing about Tensford's campus time, although the two of them were several times different from their age when they entered and graduated, but they were the same alma mater, and they had a lot of resonance with each other when they talked and laughed...

An hour passed quietly in the midst of talking and laughing, the two of them ate seventy-seven eighty-eight, the dinner plate on the table was removed, and the dinner plate was sent up, Qiao Guanxi picked a piece of mango and chewed it slowly in his mouth, was silent for a moment, and suddenly floated a puzzled look at Lin Zicong: " Lin Shao, not long ago, I heard some gossip, and it was spread with a nose and an eye, saying that the reason why the Lin Group gave up the bid for TEDA Plaza at the beginning had a great relationship with the Dingsheng Group, it seems that your brother Lin Guodong was too eager for quick success, trying to seize the opportunity and comprehensively suppress the Dingsheng Group, but as a result, he was withdrawn from the bottom of the Dingsheng Group, which led to problems in the capital chain of the Lin Group, and even the largest partner, Purun Group, also defected to the other party, and I don't know if it is true. ”

Lin Zicong's eyes narrowed, he couldn't figure out Qiao Guanxi's intention to mention this stubble, and after thinking about it, he replied cautiously: "At that time, I was only the department director of the Lin Group, and some decisions at the top level were not too clear, but I heard my old man mention it afterwards, saying that Hua Wanting's business methods even he admired very much. ”

Edison Qiao said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Lin has a high evaluation of Hua Wanting, but it is also, the wave of market fluctuations of Lin's shares, Dingsheng Group has made a profit of billions of dollars, and that time is also a feng shui ridge, and a position in the business community of Shenhai City has changed hands, and then Dingsheng Group stood out and finally won the bid, and the stock price has also skyrocketed, and now the market value has been close to 100 billion, nearly doubling the Lin Group." ”

The smile on Lin Zicong's face gradually solidified, and he was surpassed by his business colleagues, this is not a glorious thing, especially when he gave up the position of the boss, Edison Qiao revealed the scars of the Lin family so bluntly in front of him, this is not appropriate...

"Lin Shao, the shopping mall is changing rapidly, and it is very normal for a company to have ups and downs, so you don't have to worry too much. ”

Edison Qiao didn't seem to notice the change in Lin Zicong's state, swallowed the fruit in his mouth, picked up a wet towel to wipe the corners of his mouth, and then said with a leap of thought: "By the way, I heard that Old Man Lin has delegated the power of the Lin Group due to his health, Lin Shao, now that you have half of the power, I don't know if you have any plans next?"

This is a sensitive issue that transcends personal friendship, for a while, many thoughts flashed in Lin Zicong's mind, and his heart was also secretly vigilant, but he said modestly: "Don't hide it from the senior, I, the vice president of the Lin family, was just appointed three weeks ago, how can I get started so quickly with the business I am in charge of, let alone the next plan." ”

Qiao Guanxi heard this perfunctory answer, and the smile on his face was more mysterious, and he answered: "Lin Shao, even I, a bystander, can see some clues, don't you, as the authority, really not see Old Man Lin's intentions?"

Lin Zicong was a little confused: "Senior, I don't understand what you mean." ”

Edison Qiao didn't sell Guan Zi again, and said lightly: "Lin Shao, Mr. Lin divided the business of the Lin Group into two parts, and you two brothers were in charge respectively, and it seems that the power has been handed over, but have you ever thought that in this way, the Lin Group is equal to being divided into two, with the wisdom of Mr. Lin, he will not fail to understand the truth that one plus one is greater than two, on the contrary, if a company is separated, the market competitiveness will be greatly reduced, and it is also the beginning of decline... If my guess is concerned, there is a good chance that Old Man Lin deliberately delegated power, that is, to observe the respective performances of your two brothers, and finally choose one of the two of you to inherit the Lin Group. ”

These calm words were like an initiation, Lin Zicong's mind was shocked, and at this moment, his face changed rapidly, and a pair of eyebrows were almost twisted together...

Edison Qiao took Lin Zicong's expression into his eyes, a pleasant smile flashed the corners of his mouth, and while lighting a cigar, he also handed Lin Zicong one: "Lin Shao, you must understand the truth that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, since ancient times, the superior will only think about how to centralize power, but will not try to divide power, and in the future, you will only have two endings, either monopolize power, or withdraw from the Lin group, there is no third possibility." ”

Lin Zicong heard every word very clearly, and at this time, he was moved in his heart, and he had to say that Edison Joe was too reasonable.

Smoking a cigar one after another, Lin Zicong was like a wanderer, no one knew what he was thinking, so he was silent for a long time, until the last trace of waves dissipated on his face, he came back to his senses and smiled at Edison Joe: "Senior, you don't just want to wake me up to see the reality..."

Edison Qiao understood what Lin Zicong meant, looked at Lin Zicong with some appreciation, and was quite satisfied with the latter's mental control: "I'll just make it clear, I specially asked you to come today, first, it is an alumni gathering, and second, I want to pull Lin Shao you on the boat together, as long as Nancy Group finally wins the Huaxia Tower project, the position of president of Lin's Group will be you." ”

Qiao Guanxi's proposal made Lin Zicong really surprised, he never expected that the other party would take the initiative to win him over, you know, although the scale of the Lin Group is not small, but compared with the Nancy Group, there is still a huge gap, and the Lin family's heritage is not on the same level as the Qiao family, Lin Zicong does not think that the Lin Group has the qualifications to cooperate with the Nancy Group, this is not to destroy his own prestige with others' ambition, but the reality of iron.

"Senior, you won't be joking with me, the Lin Group is a bit of a weight in Shenhai City, and if you look at the whole of China, there is not much advantage at all. ”

Edison Qiao shook his head and said very firmly: "Lin Shao, do you think I will talk about this kind of thing, just to have fun, I can promise you that I will give the Lin Group five percent of the bidding share on fair transfer terms." ”

Lin Zicong saw that Edison Qiao didn't seem to be cheating, but frowned slightly, he understood the truth that there was no free lunch in the world: "There are no additional conditions?"

Edison Joe held his chin: "The extra conditions are not counted, it's just that I want to play a friendly match with the Dingsheng Group in advance, just like the Lin Group at the beginning." ”

Lin Zicong's brows furrowed even deeper: "I want to know the details." ”

Regarding this request, Edison Qiao nodded understandingly: "Yes, but before that, I hope Lin Shao can do me a little favor, and also let me confirm that the Lin Group will not stand in the same camp as the Dingsheng Group, I am also a villain first and then a gentleman, and the first thing in the shopping mall is to distinguish between the enemy and me." ”

Lin Zicong thought for a while and muttered, "What's the busy?"

"Jiang Dahao, I don't know if Lin Shao knows, he is Hua Wanting's driver, I hope Lin Shao can help me teach him a lesson. ”
