Chapter 315: Measures to Make Up for It
readx;
Li Mingbao watched Li Guangxin's face change, and understood that his father knew what the consequences would be if he did that. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info to say that Li Guangxin is also a person with great wisdom, but the previous experience of the Li family made Li Guangxin's vision narrow, which caused Li Guangxin to think that after getting a straw, he thought that he had obtained a golden hoop stick and could do some big things to affect the mainland's perception of the Li family.
But after talking about the problem himself, my father must understand what the consequences of doing this are. The Li family's tutoring has also been passed down for hundreds of years, and Li Guangxin will not fail to understand what is going on with the rabbit and the dead dog. I may not have understood the fever before, but now I have been picked out by Li Mingbao, if I still don't understand, then it is not Li Guangxin.
"Looks like you understand how serious the consequences of this are, don't you? On the premise that our own strength will not be damaged, our Li family can donate to the mainland, and there is no problem with 120 million Hong Kong dollars, as long as there is a name, there is nothing that cannot be done.
But the most important thing is not to do things that are beyond your ability, so that there will be no second way except to drag your own family down. And Dad's previous words are obviously beyond the ability of our Li family, and there will be great consequences if you do that. I want to ask my dad now, have you given any specific promises, and if so, it depends on what kind of harm such a promise will bring to our Li family. Even if you suffer a loss this time, just pay attention in the future, don't make a second mistake, and the impact on our Li family will not be too great. Li Mingbao said.
"There is no specific commitment, after all, you didn't come back, and the resources I can use are not yet available to the mainland, but I also told you Uncle Zheng before that when there are conditions, you can help the mainland, and because I didn't think of this problem at that time, the scope of the conditions for this commitment is very broad. Now it seems that my head was a little hot, and I don't know what I was doing.
Mainly because of your grandfather's rehabilitation work on the mainland, as well as your uncle and aunt, their lives are not very good, I thought at that time that if we did more work, we could make them feel better, and things could be done much easier. But I didn't expect that doing so would bring such a big security omission to our Li family. Li Guangxin said with annoyance.
Li Guangxin's state is actually equivalent to some nouveau riche who suddenly got a lot of wealth in later generations, thinking about buying and buying everything, but they didn't expect that under the big money, the big wealth would also become a big disaster. Fortunately, Lee Kuan Xin had received a good family education, and it would not be uncommon for people like those who had no roots to donate all their family property under some slogans.
Hearing that Li Guangxin did not make any too specific promises, but only said some facts instead of words, such things can be controlled in Li Mingbao's opinion. As long as you don't completely expose your bottom line, then there is still room for maneuver. But even so, Li Mingbao also knew that if he wanted to take back this promise, he would have to use money to buy it, and how to buy it would be a matter of negotiation later. Finally, this matter can still be solved with money, if my father directly tells the mainland to sell his life, that is the real can't come back, as long as the mainland encounters trouble in the future, maybe the first thing to think of is their Li family, what the death squad does, what their Li family has to do, go to the soup and go to the fire, completely self-interested, specifically for the benefit of others, such thugs are probably rare even in the mainland.
With such a promise, even if Li Mingbao makes more money outside, it is actually in vain, and when the value of the Li family is all squeezed out, then the Li family may be able to get some honorable things, and after that, the life and death of the Li family has nothing to do with the mainland at all. To be a good person to burst into tears is most likely to describe such a situation.
"If it's just that promise, that's fine. Since there are no specific terms, it is a big deal that we will not only invest but also make donations to the mainland this time, and we will buy back such a promise of 10 million US dollars, presumably the mainland side will also agree. Li Mingbao said happily.
"Ten million dollars? Do you need so much? Just a verbal promise costs 10 million dollars. That's too much to pay, isn't it? Although he knew that he would have to pay a big price if he wanted to retract his promise, Li Guangxin didn't expect to pay such a big price, 10 million US dollars, which is not a small amount, just because he was hot-headed, he let Li Mingbao lose so much, Rao is Li Mingbao's father, at this time, he can't wait to cut off his tongue and let you talk nonsense, this opening is 10 million US dollars, more than the family's assets, it hurts to think about it.
Seeing his father's appearance, although Li Mingbao also knew that his father would not feel good in his heart, if he could make his father realize the importance of speaking, it would be another way to make up for it, so that his father would pay a lot of attention to his speech in the future, so that he would not say some brainless words.
So Li Mingbao did not take advantage of this time to comfort his father, but said to make matters worse: "Ten million dollars is indeed not a small amount, but the purchase promise is not too expensive." After all, Dad, the conditions you agreed to are too broad, although 10 million US dollars is a lot, but if the mainland gives us some inappropriate order, then we will lose more than 10 million US dollars. ”
"How is it possible, the order issued by the mainland will not be exaggerated to the value of ten million dollars, right?" Although Li Guangxin understood that Li Mingbao's words were not untargeted, he did not think that a request on the mainland would really be exaggerated to that extent.
Hearing his father's rhetorical question, Li Mingbao smiled, and said with a slightly cold face: "Okay, I'll just say the simplest order, if the mainland asks the joint theater to release a movie that is popular on the mainland, dad, what do you think we will lose?" Although I don't lose anything by doing this, after all, don't all kinds of movies be screened?
But in fact, this will bring a great crisis to the United Cinemas, if such a movie is released, the outside world's perception of our United Cinemas will immediately change, because that represents a fundamental change in the position of the United Cinemas, and the cinemas that are not mixed with politics will become victims of politics, so that even if I am the dominant family in the United Cinemas now, the Hong Kong British government will make another cinema that is not disturbed by red, and the United Cinemas will be isolated by the Hong Kong market. As long as you look at the movie theaters of the leftists, you can know the minds of the Hong Kong public, and this is still the simplest.
If it's a little more complicated, just like Dad, you said before, let me influence Uncle Six's wireless, and let Wireless broadcast more positive propaganda from the mainland, even if Uncle Six agrees, at such a sensitive time, what kind of orders will the British government give to the propaganda channels they can't control? Even if you take down the license of TVB, or directly make TVB a pay TV station, who can afford that kind of loss?
Dad, don't say that the mainland will not do such a ruin thing to ruin people's future, after all, they still need our help. But dad, don't forget, the value of our help, in special times, is not necessarily more important than the value of public opinion, in order to smoothly recover Hong Kong, the interests of some individuals or families, the mainland will not give too much consideration.
Even if this is done, the mainland will compensate them, but when will those compensation arrive in Hong Kong? At least after the return, right? And at that time, Dad, do you think we can rise again? It's not possible at all.
Of course, we can also go to the mainland for development, and I believe that with such a sincere thing, our family will get great preferential treatment on the mainland. But dad, don't forget, we all have weak foundations in Hong Kong, if we go to the mainland, what can we do? You said that the situation of the eldest uncle and the second aunt is not good, even if we have money and no power, we will be a fat sheep in the mainland, and the high-level can solve the difficulties for us once, can we still solve the difficulties every time? In that way, the credit we get will soon be clean, and in the end we will not be able to escape the fate of being annexed. Anyway, we are all on the mainland, where else can we go? ”
Li Mingbao's words made Li Guangxin's face completely pale. Although he was aware of the seriousness of the matter, he didn't expect it to be so serious. Just like Li Mingbao said, when it comes to such a big issue as recovering Hong Kong, individuals and families, or large groups and large enterprises, under such a general trend, the value is insignificant, as a pawn of sacrifice, as long as the goal can be achieved, the sacrifice will be sacrificed.
After understanding that things were beyond his control, Li Guangxin felt that he really couldn't handle this family, and said quite dejectedly: "Xiao Wu, you say, what should I do about this matter, the basket was poked out by your father and me, and now my father and I don't have the ability to solve it, so I have to rely on you." Who called you a son, I am Lao Tzu, if you have the ability, you will solve the matter for me, don't leave any hands and tails. It's really not good, it's a big deal not to cooperate with the mainland, and to give up this promise. ”
Seeing his father's appearance, Li Mingbao understood that his words really played a big role, and with this lesson, I believe that my father will definitely not speak indiscriminately on any occasion in the future. To tell the truth, what Li Guangxin did this time was really a trick, if it weren't for Li Mingbao's continuous training in the past few years, and even the complex situation in Hollywood had experience in dealing with it, then maybe he might not be able to see that his father was in big trouble this time, and only when the matter came to an end, would he understand what kind of harm such a promise would bring to himself and his family. And by that time, it was too late for anything.
Because at that time, there was no room for the Li family to choose, either they would completely lean towards the mainland, and then, as Li Mingbao speculated, the Li family was completely unscrupulous. Either they will tear up this promise, leave a bad impression on the mainland, and affect the Li family's investment in the mainland in the future, even if they can invest in the mainland, some key powers, the Li family will not want to get, this is not about the question of funds, but about the mainland's attitude towards the Li family.
If that time really comes, Li Mingbao's current vision of building a cinema chain in the mainland, or controlling some resources in the mainland entertainment industry, is all fantasy. It's impossible. Fortunately, Li Mingbao was able to detect the incident when it first happened, and then set remedial measures, so that he left room for his own family and would not affect future investment...
