Chapter 52: What Do I Want Your Heart?
Wang Chuanpu's smile was a little solidified, it was normal, he was a fifty-year-old man, and he also had a very high status on the island, and he had already put down his body to pimp you, and now he still wanted people to endorse you?!
"Don't talk about this," Li Xu suddenly changed his words, "I will return to the United States in two days, and the specific matters have been handed over to Mr. Mars and Mr. Johnson, and I think the next negotiations should go very well." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Wang Chuanpu was stunned for a moment, and then became ecstatic, of course he knew what the other party meant: "Really?"
"Of course," Li Xu nodded, "After all, I just came over to supervise instead of my grandfather, and I also have my own things to do." First, my own investment company has been established, and second, my response to Harvard's application should have arrived. ”
"Really...... It's a shame that we could have played a few more days, we were very hospitable. Wang Chuanpu was somewhat incoherent.
"Rest assured, I am very optimistic about the project in Bamboo City, and if nothing else, my father and I will invest. Li Xu said with a smile, "So, I will definitely come here often in the future, and I may be bothered by the time." ”
"No problem, no problem, I'm afraid you won't come," Wang Chuanpu, who had already received an affirmative answer, was naturally very happy, and he also took care of everything when he spoke, "As long as I can help, Ah Xu just speak!"
Li Xu smiled reservedly, and glanced at Wang Chuanpu meaningfully: "Brother Chuanpu is also welcome, I have time to come to the United States as a guest, not to mention anything else, I can still do my best to be a landlord." ”
Wang Chuanpu, who was happy, couldn't help but look abrupt, his face was cloudy, and only after a while did he ask in a low voice: "Is Mr. Li serious?"
He didn't call him "Ah Xu", but used "Mr. Li", which is enough to prove that he knows what he is talking about.
"You help me, I help you, and helping each other will be more pleasant, isn't it?" Li Xu replied with a smile.
Wang Chuanpu was silent for several minutes, as if calculating the credibility of his words, and Li Xu didn't say anything more, just drank coffee slowly.
"If that's the case, I, Wang Chuanpu, thank you very much. The other party finally said in a solemn tone, "In the future, as long as I can help, Mr. Li can speak." ”
Although this sentence is only different from the one just now, it is obviously more sincere, Li Xu immediately raised his coffee cup with a smile and touched the other party's teacup lightly.
His words sounded endless, but the meaning was actually obvious, that is, if Wang Chuanpu encountered something in the future and had to leave Wanwan, he could provide some help.
It is impossible for these arms dealers, or arms brokers, to say that they did not profit from those transactions, and the US Air Force will pay $745,000 in kickbacks for buying an F-16, which is already an open matter in the circles of US arms dealers.
But Wanwan is different from the United States, if the officials with real power want to deal with you, as long as the backer is strong, and then the joints are opened, and the evidence is captured, there will be basically no problem.
In fact, the reason why Li Xu has an impression of Wang Chuanpu is because he has seen the gossip about the Lafayette ship purchase case eight years later, and one of the central figures in that case is Wang Chuanpu.
The case itself is not to be said, it is nothing more than corruption and the like, it is difficult to say whether he is a scapegoat or really deep into it, but he first fled to the United States, then to the United Kingdom, and finally enjoyed his old age, I have to say that he has a lot of means.
Li Xu didn't plan to have too much contact with Wang Chuanpu at first, and he didn't touch the arms business, he just borrowed Northrop to make Wanwan owe a huge favor.
However, after a few contacts, I have a good impression of this guy, after all, so many people died in the Lafayette case, but he can run away with money and enjoy his old age, and there are indeed two brushes on it.
Later, he pulled so many generations of power to accompany him, and sent Shuanglin over in public, which immediately gave him some ideas.
It's not because of Shuanglin, although Wang Chuanpu's approach is abrupt and does not play according to the card, it can be regarded as helping Li Xu.
It's very simple, he didn't expect that their thirst for new fighters could be so big, even if Shuanglin is just a play, it is also a very famous play, once it spreads out and makes a big scene, Wanwan's already small face will only be more completely lost.
Well, in Li Xu's previous life, not to mention the third-generation aircraft, the fourth-generation aircraft have already been put into service, and the fifth-generation aircraft have been put on the agenda, so naturally he will not understand how eager the countries and regions in this era are for the third-generation aircraft and even the second-generation and a half-generation.
It's like even though he has visited the bunkers and received training in the defense of nuclear warfare, he has never had the sense of urgency that is characteristic of the sixties and seventies that a nuclear war may break out tomorrow.
After all, his current butterfly wings are not big in some things, so the August 17 communiqué will inevitably come out, and then the United States will inevitably abandon Wanwan on the surface.
Although there will definitely be no less technical support in the future, the grievances of the Wanwan people will not be less either, if Li Xu goes a little too far this time, maybe they will vent this grievance on her.
On the contrary, if he did not overdo it, but made the other party feel that he could get more benefits, but he had to give up because of something - such as for Shuanglin - they looked like they had taken a big advantage.
Then of course, when Northrop has to evacuate, they will only complain to him, and he can even make a gesture of saying something for them, and brush up another wave of goodwill.
In any case, it will come here regularly for a long time, and it is still necessary to maintain a certain good relationship, and it would be better if there was a trustworthy local snake - such as Wang Chuanpu.
That's why Li Xu will show favor at this time, as an arms broker, if he can get out of the Lafayette case smoothly, his sense of smell must be very sensitive, and he must have his own channels.
However, the more such channels, the better, not to mention that Li Xu's background is strong enough not to worry about the other party not taking the bait.
After lunch, the afternoon negotiations went more smoothly...... Although Wang Chuanpu sent the news back, their gang couldn't wait to take advantage of the price, and then the Northrop team, which got Li Xu's hint at handing over power, also began to negotiate seriously, and the result was that the dispute became more intense but there was no progress.
But fortunately, we should both be able to feel that the other person really wants to talk, so this is a good start.
For Li Xu, after staying on this broken island for half a month, it's time to go back now, there are still a lot of things to deal with, oh, by the way, I have to bring two women with me.
"Tomorrow we'll go, first to Tokyo and then to San Francisco, and then we'll stay in San Francisco for a while, and if we need to bring something, hurry up. When Li Xu talked to Shuanglin like this, it was already three days after they met for the first time.
After the first day, Lin Fengjiao took the initiative to talk to him and asked if she could let her and Lin Qingxia go home to have a look. Li Xu allowed it without thinking about it, but emphasized that he must go back to the Yuanshan Hotel in the evening, and don't bring reporters.
So in the past two days, they were not there during the day, and they didn't come back until after eight or nine o'clock at night, so naturally they didn't do certain things - okay, the main thing is that Li Xu doesn't want to, as I said before, you have to pay attention to how to eat.
So seeing that he was leaving, Li Xu asked like this, and he didn't expect them to answer, Lin Fengjiao could still say two words, Lin Qingxia was completely "Xu Shu entered Cao Ying".
"Joan, it's yours. He then handed a document bag to Lin Fengjiao.
"Just call me Fengjiao, Li ...... Mr. Lee. Lin Fengjiao replied with low eyebrows.
"I haven't seen you call me Edward or Ah Xu. Li Xu shrugged.
Lin Fengjiao was speechless for a moment, she could only look at the document bag in her hand, she looked docile, answered all questions, and seemed to be very resigned, but she had been using the title "Mr. Li" to keep her distance in the past few days.
"This is ......" After turning it out, Lin Fengjiao was immediately taken aback, and looked at Li Xu in disbelief.
"Buyout the contract, and you're a free man from now on. Li Xu shrugged, "Don't worry, the crew of "See Spring Again" directed by Li Xing gave double the liquidated damages, which is enough for him to find other more suitable actresses." ”
As he spoke, he handed another document bag to Lin Qingxia: "This is yours." ”
Lin Qingxia blinked, opened it, and even though she was mentally prepared, she still couldn't help but take a breath.
"Ms. Qiong Yao is still very generous, almost half selling your contract and half giving it away. Li Xu said this and snorted in his heart.
That woman would be so generous, obviously smelling something, after all, it was someone from the Information Bureau who came to the door to ask for it. Also, if she didn't have this sensitivity, how could she finally squeeze out the rich and status Lin Wanzhen and successfully turn from a junior to a regular one.
"Alright, I'll leave if nothing else, see you tomorrow. Li Xu said and pointed to the time, and then gave Deng Lijun, who was accompanying him, a look.
"Fengjiao, Qingxia, good night. Deng Lijun stood up as she said this, her face slightly red.
"Wait...... Wait a minute!" Just as Li Xu was holding Deng Lijun, Lin Qingxia, who was stunned, finally shouted.
She got up and walked quickly to Li Xu, and then tried her best to stand firmly, but she still looked at him a little timidly.
"What's the matter, Bridget?" asked Li Xu with a smile.
Li ...... Mr. Li ......" Lin Qingxia bit her lip, and after hesitating for a while, she finally gritted her teeth and asked, "Mr. Li, can you let me go?"
"Let you go?" Li Xu blinked, then laughed, "Of course...... No way!"
Lin Qingxia was a little stunned for a while, Lin Fengjiao hurriedly stepped forward to pull her arm, but this time she shook it off and shouted out a little out of control: "Why?!"
"It's very simple," Li Xu said with an expression of "I still need to ask", "Your government has already given you to me, why should I let it go? Isn't this a shame for your government?"
"We are people, not objects!" Lin Qingxia immediately raised her voice, and tears began to roll in her eyes.
Li Xu shrugged: "Sometimes, people think they are not objects, but in fact they are, and sometimes, people think they are objects, but in fact they are not. ”
Then he smiled lightly: "Okay, don't talk about this kind of philosophical topic, in fact, I still like you guys very much, and I've seen your movies, so ...... Is there anything wrong with liking someone and possessing her?"
Lin Qingxia looked at him blankly, and only after a while did she straighten her chest and choked up in a trembling but firm tone: "Even if you get my person, you can't get my heart." ”
Li Xu showed an inexplicable look: "What do I want your heart for, I want your person is enough." ”
