In the atmosphere of Zhao Lei and the two asking for a price, the negotiations were quite difficult. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info full book
Zhao Daxi took out a profiteer posture to bargain with the high-ranking officials of Tianjin, and suddenly thought of what Li Ka-shing had said in front of him, Mr. Li said that there were many businesses that could make a lot of money and were not illegal, but he could have done it, but he didn't do it. At this time, Zhao Daxi felt a lot, and as a junior in the business field, he finally understood the meaning of Mr. Li's words to him at that time.
Like this kind of lucrative tobacco business, Mr. Li will never do it, whether it is sold to the rich or the poor ** who harms anyone, Mr. Li disdains to do it, Zhao Daxi only talks about personality charm, he is indeed much worse than Mr. Li Ka-shing, but because of this, he has become the new richest Chinese man beyond Li Ka-shing.
When it came to late night, the senior officials of Zimbabwe's central bank, who had found nothing, returned in disappointment and made an appointment to talk a few days before leaving. As a person who has been rolling and crawling in the mall for many years, Zhao Daxi certainly knows how to rob while the fire is hot, and the other party's eagerness is written on his face, and of course he can't agree too happily in order to get more benefits. I'm not in a hurry to go back to South Africa, but still spend a few more days in the scenic estate.
The Zimbabwean government is very demanding, and it also knows how to send a whole company of special forces to protect the personal safety of Mr. Zhao and his party. Two days later, when I was still asleep in the morning, I heard the roaring helicopter motor outside, and I knew that it should be Li Zhongshu and Secretary Li Da arrived. A moment later, in the living room of his home, he had a bear hug with the dusty secretary Li.
Li Zhongshu also had a surprised expression on his face, and he sincerely admired: "No wonder you hide here and refuse to return to China, this is really a paradise on earth." β
Zhao Daxi patted him on the shoulder and said a few words, sent someone to wake up Lei Yongqiang, who was still sleeping, and several people sat in the living room to discuss important matters. After sitting down, Lao Lei came over with a look, and he still had a grudge against Li Zhongshu, Zhao Daxi nodded lightly and played a good eloquence, mentioning the agreement with the Tianjin government to exchange US dollars for tobacco. Of course, Li Zhongshu is not a fool, he is still very smart, and his eyes will light up with a slight flick.
Secretary Li lifted his glasses and spoke with a consistent feminine attitude: "The approval power for the sale of foreign cigarettes has long been delegated to the provincial and municipal governments, and this matter is quite cumbersome to do, but it is not difficult." β
Of course, Zhao Daxi knew that this matter was difficult for him, this person was much more reliable than Tanaka Qin's nerd, especially this kind of speculative thing was what he was best at.
At this time, Lei Yongqiang took the opportunity to speak: "Secretary Li, Mr. Zhao means that he wants to attach the high-quality tobacco produced in Zimbabwe to an existing tobacco company, and try to dissociate himself from the Beishan Group...... I'm afraid this matter will require you to worry a lot, and you have to come forward to deal with all aspects of the relationship. β
Of course, Li Zhongshu is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and knows that Zhao Daxi is a person who cherishes feathers very much, and is unwilling to let outsiders know that Beishan Group is involved in the tobacco industry.
At the moment, pat your chest to ensure that there is no problem: "Of course, such a high-quality high-end foreign cigarette is very ****, who will not be able to live with profits?" β
Zhao Lei and the others knew that there must be no problem with Secretary Li's departure, but they still had a stone in their hearts, and they vaguely saw a door slowly opening towards them, and behind the gate was countless wealth. After discussing the matter, Zhao Daxi was interested in taking Li Zhongshu outside to experience the mysterious Africa.
The wide Zambezi River, a tourist attraction.
Li Zhongshu was obviously interested in the vastness of this place, and laughed a long time: "If you can live here for a lifetime, how much you will enjoy it, what do you think now, living in a big city like Beijing, eating car exhaust every day, and getting angry every day because of traffic jams, there are always so many people who want to buy a house in Beijing...... People, they can't get along with themselves. β
As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Yongqiang echoed with a smile: "That's right, everyone has their own way of living, just live comfortably." β
Li Zhongshu's communication skills are of course very good, and he always has to chat with Lao Lei when he takes the opportunity to ease the once bad relationship with Director Lei. Lei Yongqiang's personality has become much more introverted since he resigned, but he also knows how to talk and laugh with Secretary Li, and try to keep the atmosphere harmonious. There is nothing more impermanence in the world than this, and political enemies who were once incompatible have changed their occasions and seem to have become inseparable friends.
Ji Lin, who deliberately fell behind, spoke much more directly in a low voice: "I don't like this person." β
Zhao Daxi glanced at the handsome and handsome Secretary Li in front of him, and laughed quietly: "Why?" β
Ji Lin exchanged heads and ears with him, his face was slightly red, and he was still obedient to tell the truth: "I can't say the feeling, I feel that this person's eyes are too feminine and squinting." β
Zhao Daxi almost couldn't help laughing, grabbed her soft waist and said Baby, you look at people too accurately, Li Shushu is indeed such a person. Looking at the quiet and wide Zambezi River again, I was ashamed that he was now mixed with this group of scum, and he was getting closer and closer to the direction of the scum. But he had to do this, he would never allow the Beishan Group that he built to turn from prosperity to decline.
Although he is well aware that what he is doing in Africa is no different from what Goldman Sachs is doing in China, he still wants to convince himself to be more shameless and maximize the profits brought by the $48 billion billion. Otherwise, sooner or later, the Beishan Group will have to prosper and decline under the dual pressure of political struggle and shopping mall competition. Ji Lin looked at him with a deep expression, and took advantage of the rise of Lao Lei and Secretary Li chatting in front of him, and forcibly leaned over and kissed him gently, which made Zhao Daxi's mood instantly improve Haha smiled, and caught up with Lei and Li in front.
After living at the manor for a week and bargaining with senior officials of Tianjin for a week, he reluctantly signed a formal agreement under which Beishan Bank provided a loan of $8 billion to the central bank of Tianjin, in exchange for a large quantity of high-quality tobacco that was 40% below the market price, and the loan of $8 billion was repaid in 10 years.
As soon as the agreement was signed, several people rushed back to South Africa to settle an account, deducting the cost of building roads, transportation, storage and processing costs, the loan of 8 billion US dollars is likely to bring up to tens of billions of yuan of net profits for Beishan Group every year, provided that the sales of these high-quality tobacco are smooth, and such a high profit rate of return makes Zhao Daxi also scratch his hair and feel a little empty-hearted.
Li Zhongshu is indeed two eyes shining, can't wait to buy a ticket to return to China to arrange everything, Secretary Li's energy is indeed extraordinary, it only took a week to finalize a number of Yunnan tobacco enterprises, responsible for receiving and processing bulk high-quality tobacco imported from Tianjin, market positioning based on the high-end gift cigarette market. Zhao Daxi is relaxed, with his business vision of a penny, Jinguo high-quality tobacco with a good taste, long-standing reputation, want to occupy a place in the high-end gift tobacco market is definitely not difficult.
At the same time, Yang Su was not idle, and persuaded her fiancΓ© to transfer 100,000 middle-aged laborers from the major mines of the Levante family to widen the original Jinnan Expressway. In the midst of the chaos, taking stock of the gains and losses, a tobacco-for-loan contract allowed the Beishan Group, the Levante family, the governments of Nanjin and even Li Wu Weng, countless people to combine together to form a huge interest group.
Thinking of the huge power of this interest group, even Zhao Daxi felt a little shocked. I was surprised that the black industry of tobacco, both attractive and profitable, was much greater than a serious business, and intentionally or unintentionally, Boss Zhao changed from a serious businessman to an out-and-out unscrupulous profiteer. However, this black-hearted business is still doing brightly, and he and Li Zhongshu have a business license issued by the Tobacco Corporation in their hands, and a loan agreement signed in black and white with the Zimbabwe government.
It's all within the realm of what is reasonable and legal, which is a bit ironic.
A month later, I finally received the first batch of finished cigarette samples sent by Li Zhongshu, the latest high-end gift cigarette series launched by a famous tobacco group. Everyone was speechless when they saw the suggested retail price of 280 yuan for a box of cigarettes, and they didn't dare to underestimate Secretary Li's energy.
Li Zhongshu sent the cigarette delivery, a senior business manager of a tobacco group, spoke quite proudly: "We still think the price is low, hehe Mr. Zhao Mr. Lei, Minister Yang, you may not know much about the current situation of the domestic tobacco market, the more expensive cigarettes are, the more difficult it is to buy, especially in the past two years, such a high-end new product is often in short supply, and you want to taste fresh." β
When it came to one sentence, everyone was even more speechless, and I felt that it was really interlaced like a mountain. An old smoker like Lei Yongqiang took out one and sniffed it with his nose, and Zhao Daxi understood that such an expensive cigarette was cutting corners, and this line of work was really profitable. After sending off the business manager of the tobacco group, everyone was still speechless when they looked at each other.
In the end, it was the naΓ―ve Secretary Ji who spoke in a coquettish voice: "Who smokes the two hundred and eighty-one boxes of cigarettes, and it would be good if there were a few more such people."
A childish whining said that everyone couldn't help laughing, and sympathized with Ji Lin's little whining.
Lao Lei picked up the sample on the table and fiddled with it for a while, and sighed sincerely: "Fortunately, I crawled out of this quagmire, and I don't want to go back in my life." β
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Su still couldn't help but ridicule him: "I know it's a quagmire, why did you climb into it back then, you found it yourself." β
Everyone heard the forced smile, knowing that Sister Yang still remembered the old love back then, and Lao Lei still put away the samples on the table after being embarrassed, and after a little hesitation, he still put them in the trash can. Everyone looked at his embarrassed expression of being angry with the cigarette, and they forced themselves not to laugh so as not to embarrass him even more. With the completion of the Jinnan Highway widening project, the port of Cape Town seems to be a little busier than usual.
