Shen Zhenghui rarely enjoyed the treatment of a chartered venue.

When he arrived at the reserved place to eat with Fujitang Xiangcheng, Shen Zhenghui was surprised to find that a huge restaurant was actually chartered by Superman. The female secretary who was standing at the door and waiting saw Shen Zhenghui and Fujido Xiangcheng, and asked politely, "Is it Mr. Shen?" ”

"I am." Shen Zhenghui nodded.

The other party was full of smiles, "Mr. Li is already waiting for you." ”

"That's embarrassing." Shen Zhenghui nodded, Fujitang Xiangcheng made a look, Fujitang Xiangcheng walked to Shen Zhenghui's side with some twist, and grabbed his arm.

The female secretary didn't have any special expression on this, and still had a kind smile, "Please follow me." ”

Shen Zhenghui was led to the hall, originally thought that Li Zekai would entertain himself in a certain box, but what he didn't expect was that Li Zekai was wearing a white shirt and sitting in the hall near the window, which was a very high building, and sitting by the window could overlook Victoria Harbor.

When the female secretary walked over with Shen Zhenghui, Li Zekai sat at a small table and stared straight out of the window. Even a Tokyo girl like Fujido Kazuki couldn't help but say, "It's so beautiful!" ”

"Mr. Li, Mr. Shen is here." The female secretary came to Li Zekai's side and said, he turned around, then stood up and stretched out his hand to Shen Zhenghui.

Superman was in his thirties at this time, and he was polite and talented.

Shen Zhenghui shook hands with him. Feel his hands strong and strong.

"Mr. Shen, hello!"

"Hello, Mr. Li!"

Shen Zhenghui pulled open the table and sat down by himself, Fujido Xiangcheng sat beside him, for the three of them, the table against the transparent glass wall was a little small.

"I'm sorry, I thought you were coming alone, so let's change to a bigger table." Li Zekai stood up as he spoke. The whole restaurant was empty. The table was naturally chosen at random, Li Zekai chose a nearby table for four people, and the three of them sat down again.

"Haven't asked this lady yet?" Li Zekai glanced at Fujitang Xiangcheng, and then looked at Shen Zhenghui.

"My driver and bodyguard." Shen Zhenghui replied succinctly.

Li Zekai was a little stunned for a while. He took a closer look at the woman in a professional suit. looked at Shen Zhenghui again. "You're in high taste!"

"Thanks, but this can only be considered average." Shen Zhenghui waved his hand. Fujido Xiangcheng has been keeping a straight face, and at this time he couldn't help but pout.

Li Zekai did not borrow this word. smiled and took the menu from his secretary's hand, "Mr. Shen can order whatever he wants, the steak here is very good." ”

"If it's a steak imported from the UK, I won't order it." Shen Zhenghui also took over the menu from Secretary Li Zekai, and Fujitang Orange also had a copy.

"His steak is imported from Japan."

"Ah, then they must be lying, the Japanese don't have enough steak for the Japanese themselves." Shen Zhenghui said casually, "This guy must not know where to get the smuggled beef, and he doesn't know whether the health examination is qualified, so let's not eat steak." ”

Shen Zhenghui closed the menu book, "I'm not familiar with it here, Mr. Li, what are you eating?" ”

Li Zekai was a little embarrassed by Shen Zhenghui, he pushed his glasses, "Do you want a lamb chop?" Without waiting for Shen Zhenghui to return, he continued, "The lamb chops are imported from Australia. ”

"It's quite possible." Shen Zhenghui flipped through the menu again and scoffed at the price, "Then let the guest take care of the host, and give me a lamb chop that Mr. Li ordered." He turned his gaze to Fujido Orange, "What do you want to eat?" ”

Fujido Kazuki licked her lips, "I'm just like you." ”

So the three of them ordered three servings of the same thing, and the waiter standing next to the female secretary was a little overwhelmed, "Sir, our steak is authentic Kobe beef......"

"No more, thank you." Shen Zhenghui raised his hand and said.

Li Zekai returned the menu to his female secretary and asked as if greetings, "Mr. Shen doesn't like to eat beef?" ”

"No, I'm very fond of beef." Shen Zhenghui also returned the menu, "It's just that it's not safe to eat beef outside the mainland, you know." ”

Li Zekai smiled, "I know this restaurant very well, and there will be no problem with their ingredients." ”

"I think it's better to be careful." Shen Zhenghui responded, he said in his heart, food safety problems in the future can scare you, doesn't your dad also eat artificial eggs?

Glancing at Fujitang Xiangcheng, who was sitting on the side without saying a word, as if he was really like a bodyguard, Li Zekai felt that he could get to the point, "Mr. Shen is as interested in the Internet as I am, I don't know what you are studying?" ”

Here it comes. Shen Zhenghui said to himself, "I studied physics, and I am indeed interested in the Internet. ”

"Studying physics?" Li Zekai finally became interested in dialogue, "So what do you think about the Internet?" "I'm a computer student, and I'd love to know what other people think of the Internet," he continued, after a pause, "especially in this period, when the so-called Internet bubble burst as advertised by the media." ”

"The Internet is the best, most convenient and fastest communication tool that has appeared now, in fact, it is not only a communication tool, but also a carrier of media, this is the so-called multimedia technology, you are learning computers, I will not talk about technical things. In my opinion, Internet technology itself is like telecommunications technology, and the future development will probably be combined with telecommunications technology, and if you look at how big the global telecommunications market is, oh, you yourself are engaged in this, you should be very clear. In the future, the Internet market will develop to keep pace with the telecommunications market, not only hardware, but even software, all aspects, compared with the telecommunications market can show that it has great development potential. ”

"But the dot-com bubble ......"

"Bubbles are normal, and a new technology may start out as a concept. When it really becomes a part of the reality of life, it is time for investment to harvest," Shen Zhenghui spread his hands, "There have been railway fund-raising fraud cases and rubber stock fraud cases before, have the railways and rubber themselves become bubbles bursting?" In the end, it is the speculators who fail, and when the bubble bursts, the Internet companies that still exist in the market will be the future hegemons. ”

"Mr. Shen, you are very optimistic! I've heard that you used to invest in real estate, and now your main business has changed to the film industry. Why not make investing in the Internet your main business? ”

Shen Zhenghui chuckled. "Real estate is not easy to do, without strong capital and deep background, I can't do this business at all, I have learned a little lesson, while the actual situation is good. Just jumped out of this industry. Without waiting for Li Zekai to continue asking. Shen Zhenghui continued. "Mr. Li should have a deep understanding of the difficulties of doing real estate."

Li Zekai raised his eyebrows, he didn't know how to answer this sentence at all, and the two biggest ends of his company were telecommunications and real estate. The Cyberport project, in which he later fooled the first chief executive, is a typical alternative real estate project. No matter how rebellious he looks on the outside, in essence, what he inherited from his father is unchanged, and his capital operation is still inseparable from the monopoly and real estate in the end, so his company and his father's company are in the same vein, and in essence, there are no innovative things in it - public facilities, real estate, capital monopoly, and the Li family's basic plate has always been on this.

Shen Zhenghui was not interested in holding a criticism meeting for the Li family's salary, he continued to say his words, "Film entertainment is an important content, and with this as the core, it will also be one of the important service contents on the Internet. Shen Zhenghui paused, "I regret very much that you sold the TV station to Mercado, although it is indeed a very profitable business, and the market value of satellite TV probably does not reach the price you sold for a long time." But I think that if you really want to do an online business, TV stations are a good tool that should not be sold. ”

Li Zekai listened very carefully, and finally smiled, "You mean that I should be serious about being a TV station?" ”

"I can only say my opinion, the TV station is a good tool, and besides, you have permission to enter the mainland." Shen Zhenghui spread his hands, "This market is too big, you know, the mainland will not allow Merkdo's TV stations to enter, and even if they do, there are restrictions." ”

Li Zekai held his chin with his hand, as if he was listening carefully.

It was at this time that the lamb chops were served.

Shen Zhenghui then stopped his speech and began to eat.

The lamb chops were well fried, but apparently this dinner was not the purpose.

Li Zekai asked for a bottle of Lafite, he simply ate two bites and poured wine with Shen Zhenghui, and waited for the waiter and secretary to walk away and continue to talk.

"So you're bullish on the Internet market for a long time?"

"To be precise, China's Internet market."

"Why is it limited to the Chinese market?"

"Because I'm Chinese!"

"Isn't your main market for development now Japan?"

"Some things are hard to say, but you can see it as a detour -- a curve to save the country, and sometimes walking in a straight line will not achieve the goal." Shen Zhenghui shook his fingers.

Li Zekai had probably said enough, and finally began to ask straight to the point, "So, are you still interested in Penguin's shares?" ”

Shen Zhenghui tried not to be particularly happy, he closed his eyes, was a little contrived and silent for a while, then reopened them and let out a long breath, "I'm interested." ”

"Why don't you tell me why?"

"I thought I had already said it."

"You seem to be talking about a big macro thing, can't you talk about the specific content of Penguin?"

Shen Zhenghui smiled, "Do you want to add money?" ”

Li Zekai laughed, he leaned back, some exaggerated body movements, "I have made up my mind to sell the shares of Penguin, money is indeed a problem." "Of course you're not the only buyer. ”

"So can I find out who the other buyers are?" Shen Zhenghui spread his hands, "I'm also worried about the realization of my own 10% of my own shares in the future," he pointed to Li Zekai. "You run first."

"Well, I didn't mean to be inquiring, but I'd love to know if you can take out the cash to buy shares?" Li Zekai dodged Shen Zhenghui's question.

"I know a lot of people in Japan who are interested in investing in the Internet," Shen Zhenghui stopped asking about buyers, "They are very interested in the Internet market, especially the Chinese Internet market," after a pause, Shen Zhenghui continued, "probably because the American Internet market does not have their share." ”

I don't know if Li Zekai accepted this explanation. He took a deep breath. "Mr. Shen, I won't go around in circles, let's explain directly," he paused. "My lowest offer for 20% of Penguin is $18 million. If you accept. We can move on to other issues such as payment methods. ”

Shen Zhenghui's heart was relieved, "I have a question. ”

"Tell me."

"Do you accept yen?"

Li Zekai finally laughed out loud.

……

The business is negotiated, and then you can pull a personal relationship. Li Zekai warmly invited Shen Zhenghui to come to his house when he was free to visit - well, this his home obviously does not refer to the place where Li Zekaikai himself used the golden house to hide Jiaojiao, but to his father's half-level villa. This can be regarded as a way to get closer, and Li Zekai himself recognized Shen Zhenghui's identity, so he accepted him as one of his daily communication partners.

Shen Zhenghui first said that the lawyer who came from Japan later would join the local lawyer in Hong Kong to witness the signing of the stock transfer with Li Zekai, and the transfer entity involved made Shen Zhenghui feel that even a formality was very complicated. He will try to use his stay in Hong Kong to accomplish this.

So Li Zekai asked him what he was doing in Hong Kong, and if he had time, there would be a banquet at his house in the near future.

The answer is filmmaking.

Superman is still very interested in the entertainment film industry, and the two of them exchanged their views on Hong Kong female stars by the way.

Both of them belong to the restraint type, and Superman will not marry an actress back to his home, of course, he does not exclude letting her give birth to a child for herself. The communication between the two people about actresses is naturally limited to art, which actress's acting skills are shocking, and whose business card is more interesting, this can be regarded as the topic of Xiao Li Superman who deigned to come to Shen Zhenghui.

Shen Zhenghui glanced at Fujido Xiangcheng, who was silent on the side, but was already a little impatient from the micro-expression, "I've probably been interested in action movies for a long time recently, and when I first met my female bodyguard, I wanted to shoot an action movie because of her name." ”

"Oh? Is it? Li Zekai showed an interested expression, but he obviously didn't believe that Fujitang Xiangcheng was just Shen Zhenghui's bodyguard, "If you shoot an interesting film, I can also invest in it!" Li Zekai said.

"I definitely don't want you to invest, but directly pull you to sponsor." Shen Zhenghui took a sip of wine, "I can help you with ad placement." ”

Li Zekai smiled.

In the eyes of both men, the dinner served its purpose.

Fujido Kazuki is thinking about how to report this dinner to Mitsumi Fukuda.

After chatting casually for a while, the chefs brought seafood soup, and Shen Zhenghui asked while drinking the soup, "The taste of this restaurant is okay, what kind of cuisine are they?" ”

"It's an Italian restaurant." Li Zekai replied.

"Oh," Shen Zhenghui raised his eyebrows, "If it's a British restaurant, the standard is beyond my imagination, and an Italian restaurant can only be said to be average." Then he seemed to remember something, "Since it's an Italian restaurant, why don't you order pasta?" ”

"It's on the menu, you didn't order it, I thought you didn't like it!"

"Hahaha......" Shen Zhenghui doesn't know what Li Zekai thinks of himself, and he probably thinks of himself as a bun. But in the future, when he thinks of today's transaction, he will probably be heartbroken to the point of no return, once so close to the throne of the richest man in China, as a "rebellious" son, it is simply an extremely desirable goal to surpass his father. With 30 billion Hong Kong dollars in cash, 3% of Penguin's shares were sold in 2014.

After staying overnight for dinner, Li Zekai left Shen Zhenghui a business card with his secretary's mobile phone number on it, and no matter what, a verbal agreement still needs to be formally signed.

Shen Zhenghui also gave the other party a business card, and the number on it was from his office in Japan, so he also left the number of Zhuxing Kazuya to the other party. The two parties negotiated things and broke up happily.

"Originally, I wanted to arrange some activities in the evening, but since you brought a female companion, it was not appropriate." Li Zekai said.

"Don't say that," Shen Zhenghui said as he shook hands and said goodbye, "she's really my driver." ”

In order to prove his words, Shen Zhenghui took Fujido Xiangcheng into the Toyota, Fujitang Xiangcheng got into the car from the driver's seat on the right, and Shen Zhenghui sat in the co-pilot.

After getting into the car, Fujido Xiangcheng didn't drive and called Mitsumi Fukuda first.

Shen Zhenghui closed his eyes and rested on the back of the chair.

The phone was connected, and as soon as Fujitang Xiangcheng said Moxi Moxi, the phone was taken by Shen Zhenghui, "Futian, good news, 18 million US dollars, 20% of the shares, it has been negotiated." ”

Fujido Kazuki was dumbfounded.

Mitsumi Fukuda's response in a pleasant tone had already come from the other end of the phone, "Very good, the lawyer is ready to go." Tomorrow will be there. ”

"Anyway, when will the matter over your side be dealt with, I won't have time to pay attention to the things in the company when the movie officially starts shooting."

"Hehe, no hurry, soon." I don't know why, from Fukuda Mitsumi's tone, Shen Zhenghui heard a bit of darkness. (To be continued......)
