Chapter 265: What is the Investment Law?
Industry and cash are not the same concept. Those who have cash may not be able to have an estate. It's like those who won the lottery and suddenly had hundreds of millions of cash (as for how these people won so much, we won't discuss whether it's scientific or not.) But it doesn't mean that their social status will improve immediately.
Because everyone knows that their money is dead money, and when it is used up, it will be gone, and if there is no new way to make money, then this money can only be spent, and there is no other meaning. But the person who has the industry is different, because with the industry, he can rely on the small amount of money he has now, to make more money, endlessly, as long as there is no problem with the industry, then his money will not be used up.
Therefore, often a multi-millionaire with an industry is more respected by others than a billionaire without roots. The dollars that Li Mingbao earned before, Zheng Wenyun and the others at most felt that Li Mingbao had taken shit luck, and it was impossible to get money like this in the future, as long as it was hollowed out, it would not be easy to have dollars. So although the people above attach importance to it, they do not attach great importance to it in particular.
In particular, Li Mingbao still made money from the film industry, and such an industry was originally a loss-making business in the mainland, and the film studios on the mainland could not eat, and it was not one or two. So according to the concept over there, that is, they are interested in Li Mingbao's cash, and as for Li Mingbao's industry, the people over there really don't pay much attention to it.
But the problem is that now Zheng Wenyun heard a very important news from Li Mingbao's mouth, that is, Li Mingbao also has a film company in the United States, and he can continue to make money for him, and he has earned tens of millions of dollars in this short half a year, who knows how much he can earn every year in the future?
Zheng Wenyun is not a person who has no knowledge on the mainland, he knows how high the rate of return on the industry in Hollywood is in the United States. If Li Mingbao can earn tens of millions of dollars over there every year, then Cheng DΓΉ, who attaches great importance to Li Mingbao, will have to raise at least two levels at the current level.
But just when Zheng Wenyun wanted to speak, he didn't know how to speak for a while. One is because the things Li Mingbao said have exceeded the scale they calculated before, and the other reason is that Li Mingbao said so many things to his father as soon as he entered the door, so that Zheng Wenyun still hasn't spoken. opened his mouth suddenly, and old rivers and lakes like Zheng Wenyun didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, after listening to Li Mingbao's report, Li Guangxin finally remembered Zheng Wenyun, who was sitting on the side, and also remembered the main purpose of calling Li Mingbao over today.
So Li Guangxin said at this time: "It's a good thing that you make money, but you also have to pay attention to your body, the money in the world is inexhaustible, and you haven't had a rest time for the New Year, how tired are you?"
By the way, I'm looking for you today, and I actually have something to do. The one next to me is Zheng Wenyun, and you have to call him uncle. He came today to discuss some things with you. β
He suddenly had an uncle, and Li Mingbao was also quite surprised. After all, Li Mingbao also knows his own situation, and he originally had no relatives in Hong Kong, but now his father suddenly brought him an uncle, according to the routine, this uncle who has never been seen before and is familiar with him should be here to fight the autumn breeze.
But since his father introduced it so solemnly, Li Mingbao didn't say much, so he piled up a smile and said: "Uncle Zheng, I don't know what kind of wind is blowing you over today." If there's anything you need my help with, as long as it's within my means, I'm not going to say anything. After all, it is not easy for our family to have a relative in Hong Kong, and if we can help, we will definitely help. β
Li Mingbao's demeanor and tone of speech are very familiar in Zheng Wenyun's eyes, although Li Mingbao's words are quite polite, but as an old Jianghu Zheng Wenyun, from this demeanor and tone, it is easy to see his attitude towards some specific groups, and the appearance is exactly the same. And this particular group of people often has a word that is used for them, and that is the poor relatives who don't know that gala pop up.
Although Zheng Wenyun has always been more bold in treating poor relatives at the beginning, he can't stand too many people, so in the future, Zheng Wenyun can only give a little bit of picking, otherwise his family will not be able to eat. Li Mingbao's appearance immediately reminded Zheng Wenyun of this, which made Zheng Wenyun a little crying and laughing. But I have to admit that it seems that this time he called Li Mingbao over, and he did have the mentality of turning into a relationship, and Li Mingbao entertained him with this kind of appearance of entertaining poor relatives, which is really not excessive.
"This Xiao Li...... No, Little Five. This time, I am not here to represent myself, but to represent the country. Actually, we all met last time, maybe you forgot, the last time you were preparing to rebuild the theater chain, it was still the person I contacted? I don't know if you remember? Zheng Wenyun said with a little embarrassment.
Hearing Zheng Wenyun say this, Li Mingbao finally matched the identity of the person in front of him. It's not that Li Mingbao's memory is really that bad, it's really a few months ago, plus he and Zheng Wenyun also met, and the rest of the things are all handed over to the sixth uncle to take care of, and Li Mingbao is a payer. So I didn't recognize anyone at once.
This time, after Zheng Wenyun's reminder, Li Mingbao would really be in vain if he didn't know who the person in front of him was. So with Zheng Wenyun's opening, Li Mingbao's smiling face was also much more sincere: "Oh, it turned out to be Uncle Zheng." I really didn't expect it to be you. The main reason is that the last time we met was not long, and the next things were also handled by the sixth uncle, plus I was also a little busy during this time, so I forgot a little, and I hope that Uncle Zheng Haihan. β
"It's okay, once born, second ripe. I'm sure we have a lot of time to deal with in the future. If you really want to talk about it, I still worked under Li Lao back then. So the relationship between our two families is very close, but for some specific reasons, your father has not talked to you about us before.
Well, now the country is normal, so there will be no problem with our exchanges. This time, I still heard your father say, you want to invest in the mainland? The central leaders attach great importance to this matter, and I just want to hear your views on investment. Zheng Wenyun said with a kind look.
Hearing that Zheng Wenyun was talking about investment, Li Mingbao understood why his father called him over in such a hurry. You must know that my plan is to tell my father, the Li family will not get too involved in the industry in Hong Kong, so if the Li family wants to develop greatly in the future, in fact, it will have to rely on the mainland, plus the relationship between the Li family in the mainland, it is easy to have a good harvest.
It's just that in the past, these things were only said by Li Mingbao alone, and people like Li Guangxin, who knew about the mainland, didn't know much about this thing. Now that Zheng Wenyun is coming, his father must not be able to make up his mind and call himself over, which is a normal expression.
But Li Mingbao didn't expect his father to be in such a hurry, the year of eighty-three years has not passed, and his father called someone over, which was a little unexpected. But since everyone has come, it is impossible for Li Mingbao to drive people away, but how to invest in this investment is also a problem.
This is because there is a very troublesome setting for the mainland to absorb investment, that is, as long as it is invested in the construction of something on the mainland, there is no saying that it can be wholly owned. It can only be a joint venture, and the foreign party's shares cannot exceed 49 percent, and the controlling stake is on the mainland. Such a setting is definitely a troublesome thing for foreign capital. Therefore, at the very beginning of the mainland's investment promotion, the results achieved were not great, that is, some people who made small investments and could not get along abroad would invest in the mainland, and the really big companies would not look down on the domestic conditions at all, and the mainland alone would block most of the foreign-funded enterprises from the door.
After all, even if he was the big man, when he started, he couldn't talk about getting in touch with foreign capital, and he did his own business, and when he cooperated with foreign capital later, it had to be after the mid-90s, and at that time, the situation of wholly foreign-owned capital was quite common, and there was nothing to care about.
So now that Zheng Wenyun mentioned investment, Li Mingbao's first reaction was that it was too early to risk death, and the second was that he couldn't get a controlling stake in the investment, which was simply sending money to the mainland.
"I have this idea about this investment, after all, our Li family's roots are in the mainland, not in Hong Kong. It's just that I don't know exactly what the investment conditions in the mainland are now, although our Li family has the idea of benefiting one party, but it also depends on the ability, and if the ability is not enough, we will all be dragged to death. Li Mingbao said with a frown.
Hearing that what Li Mingbao wanted to understand was the investment environment, Zheng Wenyun suddenly came to his senses: "Xiao Wu, let me tell you that this time the central government has made a big determination to engage in the economy. Therefore, the treatment given to foreign capital is quite good, whether it is land, manpower, or tax issues, it is a green light. As long as there is a need, as long as you invest in foreign exchange, there will be a government escort, and you investors will never suffer losses. β
"In this way, the conditions are good, but I don't know what will happen to the shares after the company is established? However, I have heard that sole proprietorships are not allowed on the mainland, and if they want to enter the mainland market, they must have joint ventures. It is not strange to say that there is a joint venture between high-end things, but it would be strange if we only entered the mainland to open a few hotels in the early stage, which is also a joint venture. It's not that we don't have the money to start it ourselves, and the hotel mainland can't learn any experience, so the joint venture is a little funny. And you still have to occupy the position of major shareholders, which is a bit too much, right? Li Mingbao pretended to be distressed and said.
