Chapter 487: Riverside Fishing
(.) Ma Qingyang went to see Sun Zhengyi, and went to explore the road first according to what he and Zhou Liwen had discussed, so as not to have no room for maneuver when Zhou Liwen and Sun Zhengyi talked directly. But the next day, after Ma Qingyang came back from Sun Zhengyi's side, his face became a little strange.
"He agreed?" Zhou Liwen asked.
Ma Qingyang shook his head.
"He refuses?" Zhou Liwen's heart sank a little and frowned.
Who would have thought that Ma Qingyang shook his head again.
Seeing that he kept shaking his head, Zhou Liwen was a little puzzled and asked him what was going on.
"I don't know what's going on." Ma Qingyang spread his hands helplessly and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Sun neither agreed nor refused, I was confused by him." ”
"Didn't you make it clear to him?" Zhou Liwen asked.
Ma Qingyang said affirmatively: "Although I said it more tactfully, I have said everything that should be said, and it is impossible not to understand what I mean with Mr. Sun's wisdom." But just like that, he still didn't answer me directly, but agreed to the invitation of Chairman Chou to meet, and let me tell you that if you have time tomorrow, you can still meet at the previous place in Nagoya. ”
Zhou Liwen asked for details again, and Ma Qingyang did not hide it, and almost repeated the meeting between him and Sun Zhengyi, including the content of the conversation between the two sides. After listening, Zhou Liwen also didn't understand Sun Zhengyi's thoughts, judging from Ma Qingyang's story, Sun Zhengyi did not make an attitude of agreeing or refusing, and even his demeanor did not change. And now he accepted his invitation again, and took the initiative to transfer the place of meeting from Tokyo to Nagoya, which place Zhou Liwen certainly knew, this was still when he came to Japan many years ago and was entertained by Son Masayoshi to live for a few days. It seems that Son is planning to talk directly with himself, or that there is something else to discuss with him besides the issue of the listing of the network group.
What is it? Zhou Liwen guessed for a while and didn't guess it, but what he knew about Sun Zhengyi, Sun Zhengyi took Ma Qingyang like this, and it would definitely not be a trivial matter for him to come forward to negotiate directly. Masayoshi Son is a person who cannot afford to make profits early, and the biggest possibility is that he will use the listing issue to force himself to make concessions in some aspects, or use it in exchange. is only this possibility, he will have such a reaction, otherwise with Ma Qingyang's status in the network group and his previous friendship with Sun Zhengyi, he will definitely not have such an attitude.
"Dong Zhou, do you need me to ...... tomorrow?" Seeing that Zhou Liwen had been frowning and considering, Ma Qingyang couldn't help but ask on the side.
"No need, I'll arrange it myself." Zhou Liwen waved his hand to decline Ma Qingyang's kindness, and thought about it: "There shouldn't be any problems on the Japanese side, the matter we discussed yesterday is more important, or you go back to Liu Ting to get the project framework out first, and then inform you after I talk to Son Zhengyi." ”
Ma Qingyang nodded slightly, he also knew that it would not be useful for him to stay in Japan, since it was better to do what Zhou Liwen wanted. It's just that before he came, Ma Qingyang came to help with the purpose of circumstantial, but who would have thought that Sun Zhengyi would have such a result. However, this time I didn't run in vain, and a long talk with Zhou Liwen led to a project, which is also a good thing for Ma Qingyang.
Tokyo is not far from Nagoya, and the place Zhou Liwen is also very familiar with. After a day off, Zhou Liwen flew directly from the company to Nagoya by helicopter the next day, and then changed cars after arriving at the place, and the car passed through the quiet street to the foot of the mountain, and after a short time he saw the house in the greenery.
Zhou Liwen's car slowly stopped, and someone who had been waiting for a long time stepped forward to open the door, and when he saw Zhou Liwen, the person who came first bowed respectfully, and then told Zhou Liwen that Sun Zhengyi had arrived first yesterday, and now he was fishing on the riverside not far away.
"Fishing? Hehe, Mr. Sun is really interested. Take me to see it. Zhou Liwen said with a smile and looked at the river at the same time.
It is estimated that he had already received an explanation from Sun Zhengyi, and the person in charge of waiting for Zhou Liwen hurriedly sighed, and then took Zhou Liwen to Sun Zhengyi's fishing place
Turning the trail, near the river, I saw from a distance at the small wooden pier by the river, wearing a kimono and a straw hat, Sun Masayoshi was sitting leisurely, a fishing rod was placed on a fixed rack, and there was a small bucket on the side, I don't know if he had a harvest today.
"Let the wind and waves rise, sit firmly on the Diaoyutai" Zhou Liwen walked closer and laughed loudly: "Sun Dong is really interested, he has the demeanor of the prince of Haoxi, I don't know if this hook is straight or curved?" ”
"Hahaha" Hearing this, Sun Zhengyi took off his straw hat and said with a smile: "I don't dare to compare with Jiang Taigong, of course this hook is curved." ”
"I think so, or I won't be the king of Zhou Wen?" Zhou Liwen joked happily, and when he got closer, he saw that there was already a hooked fish in the barrel, Zhou Liwen looked at the fish and praised: "Sun Dong's fishing skills are really good, there is already a fish in hand, and it seems that the second fish will be hooked soon." ”
"You and I will, the reason why the fish is hooked is because there is bait, there is a way that people die for money, birds die for food, and the same is true for this fish, as long as there is enough temptation, even if it loses its name, it is willing to bite the bait." Son blinked and smiled in a pun.
Zhou Liwen sat down beside him, picked up the teapot that had been filled with tea, and poured himself a cup of tea: "What Sun Dong said is indeed the eternal truth, but if you want the fish to pay, not only the temptation of this bait is big enough, but the key depends on whether the fish is full." If the fish is already full, it will never swallow the best bait. In addition, anglers often can't be anxious, you must know that especially big fish are very cunning, and even many times eat the bait but spit out the hook, so the gain outweighs the loss. ”
Son Masayoshi nodded: "Hehe, that's right, so anglers must not only be patient, but also have perseverance." If there are no two points, no matter how good the angler's fishing gear is, no matter how clever the bait is, he will not be able to catch a big fish, what do you think, Dong Chou? ”
Zhou Liwen immediately burst out laughing, and at the same time, Son also laughed, and the laughter of the two echoed by the river, almost scaring away all the fish around them.
As soon as they met, they had a conversation with such sharp words, and although the words were about fishing, in fact, the meaning was clear to both of them. After laughing, Zhou Liwen stopped going around in circles, and told Son Masayoshi directly about his thoughts and arrangements for the listing of the network group, and calmly told Son that the work of divesting Alipay has begun, so he hopes to get his recognition and support in this regard.
"In terms of share structure, you don't have to ask for my opinion." Masayoshi Son preached leisurely.
Zhou Liwen shook his head: "If it's some small things, maybe it's okay, but after all, this is a big thing to go public." SoftBank is a member of the company's board of directors, one of the company's major shareholders, and has a stake in Yahoo, so without the support and recognition of both of you, it would be difficult to go public. ”
"Then why did you talk to me first instead of talking to Yahoo first?" Son asked curiously.
"Aren't you sure you can get Yahoo on it? Don't forget that it was SoftBank that solved the problem when the equity was changed. Zhou Liwen asked rhetorically.
Son Zhengyi laughed and nodded, in fact, his curiosity just now was deliberate, with Sun Zhengyi's judgment, how could he not know why Zhou Liwen looked for him first? As long as SoftBank nods and agrees, there will be no problems on Yahoo's side, not to mention Son's influence on Yahoo, just the decisions of Zhou Liwen and Son Masayoshi are enough to promote this matter, which is also the purpose of Zhou Liwen's talk to him.
"I can agree to your request and get Yahoo to support it as well." Originally, Zhou Liwen thought that Sun Zhengyi would play Tai Chi with him, or to entangle himself or something, but who would have thought that when he laughed backwards, he actually said such a sentence, and promised himself so readily, which made Zhou Liwen a little meaningful
"But ......."
Just when Zhou Liwen guessed whether there would be conditions in the future,...
As expected, Son said the word "but" in a twist.
Zhou Liwen looked at him with a smile, waiting for him to say the following conditions.
"I got the news, you and the Samsung Group seem to have made some moves again? supported Lee Jae-hyun to power before, who would have thought that this guy's vision was too small and he would go back on his word, so you and Lee Jae-chrome worked together again? ”
Zhou Liwen was stunned, he didn't expect Son Masayoshi to suddenly mention the matter of Samsung Group, which he never thought of before he came. Looking at the smile on the other party's face, a thought suddenly popped up in Zhou Liwen's heart, and he suddenly thought again, don't look at Son Zhengyi's ancestral home is China, and now he is Japanese, but on the other hand, he is also Korean. At least, many people know that he is a Japanese-Korean, and as a former Korean, Son may not know less about Samsung Group than himself, and he can even say that he knows better than himself. Could it be that Son Masayoshi deliberately invited himself to meet here for the real purpose of the Samsung Group? If that's the case, then it makes sense, as a Korean-Japanese, Son is likely to have intentions against the Samsung Group, and he can even find an opportunity to join Samsung in his own capacity without arousing the disgust of the South Korean government, including ordinary Koreans.
Zhou Liwen was silent for a while, then nodded: "Yes, there is such a thing, it seems that Sun Dong is very well-informed, what?" Could it be that Sun Dong has any thoughts about Samsung Group? ”
"Of course, there are ideas, Li Jianxi is a qualified businessman, but unfortunately his luck is not very good. As for his son Li Zaichrome, he is a master and boastful, but he is just a second ancestor. And Lee Jae-hyun father and son, I'm afraid you know better than you know what kind of people they are, a guy like this actually holds the power of Samsung, if it weren't for your support at the beginning, it is estimated that it would not be possible in this life. Now that a group as big as Samsung has fallen into the hands of these people, as a South Korean national, do you say that I regret it in my heart? Son said this, and his expression also showed a look of hatred for iron, as if he really thought about the future of Samsung Group. This demeanor made Zhou Liwen laugh in his heart, and even wanted to shout directly You are not Korean for a long time, don't use this reason to deceive children
