Chapter 1499: Something Wrong

"Let's get started!" Several people sitting at the oval conference table said with different expressions.

As the convener of this meeting, Qi Wenmin said his opening remarks, "The last time a joint meeting was held was in 1992. Under the spring breeze of reform and opening up at that time, the business development of the six of us in China was extremely rapid.

At that meeting, the scope of their respective main businesses was roughly determined, forming our current pattern.

Gaojia focuses on heavy industry, machinery, and energy. The Pei family focuses on financial services and insurance. The Cui family focuses on infrastructure, docks, and real estate. The Tang family focuses on pharmaceutical, daily chemicals, and cultural industries. The Li family focuses on electronics and clothing. Qijia focuses on coal and minerals.

But, in the late nineties, we experienced two shocks. The first shock is the rise of digital products. DVD players, mobile phones, MP3s, computers. Digital electronics have profoundly changed our world.

The second impact is the beginning of the new century, especially the vigorous development of the Internet in the past two years. There is no doubt that the Internet will also profoundly change our lives. This trend is already very evident in the United States and Europe.

In the context of these two major business waves, the businesses of our six companies overlap and penetrate each other.

I believe that the convening of this meeting is absolutely necessary. The six of us need to redefine our business scope to avoid duplication of competition and waste of resources. At the very least, bad competition should be avoided. ”

Cui Han smiled sarcastically in his heart. Said high-sounding. How to divide it? It's not who is strong, who has more cakes.

The relationship between the six great families is not similar to the one deduced in the novel. For example: The descendants of Li Zicheng's four guards in Xuefei Flying Fox are entangled in grievances in the end.

Rather, get to know each other over a long period of time. Identity, and finally form a community of interests. The relationship between each other is far and near. The reasons vary.

The relationship between the Qi family and the Li family is very close. It was because in the 70s they invested in a successful water project in the Czech Republic. This investment has brought the assets of the Qi and Li families to a new level. Then intermarry with each other.

The closeness of the Cui family and the Gao family is a geographical reason. Mingzhou Gao and Wenzhou Cui are both local noble families and families of great wealth. There is a lot of contact with each other.

The relationship between the Tang family and the Pei family was close, and it was Tang Analect's uncle and Pei Gaofeng's father who left South America during the turbulent years. Each of them has carved out a piece of the world. And then the two kept going back and forth.

When the tide of the times receded, the remaining families of the super-rich had a natural sense of intimacy. This is the precipitation of family culture, the recognition of their respective identities. It is somewhat similar to the circle divided by the Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty and the Jinshi who later entered the Hanlin Academy: non-Hanlin is not allowed to enter the cabinet.

….

Tang's total assets are $18 billion. The overall assets of the Tang family are about $30 billion. Excluding real estate, antiques, jewelry, art, gold and other hedging items, it also involves real estate, ports and other businesses.

Cui Jiuxiao slowly drank the tea and sighed in his heart. The focus of today's meeting is on how to carve up the Tang family's "territory".

It is relatively quick to divide the scope of each business. The capital advantage that each family has accumulated over decades is there. No one will cross the line lightly. As for emerging industries, everyone is actually reluctant to let go. Vertical and horizontal, when the time comes, each by means.

Discussion, one topic after another. Finally came to the main event, Li Yiming said with a smile: "Old Tang, the cultural industry has been stripped out." I think there is a lot of market for movies now. Jiuxiao, isn't Cui Han sitting in the cultural industry? Are you interested in going big? ”

Cui Jiuxiao smiled, "Let it be." "Li Yiming is in trouble, he will not take a stand. Hey, after going back, he will naturally increase his investment in Cui Han's company.

All of you here are old foxes. No one was surprised by Cui Jiuxiao's appearance. After looking around, Qi Wenmin continued: "I am very interested in biopharmaceuticals. I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with you in the future. ”

Tang Group even sold Tang Pharmaceutical. Now naturally there is no say in this area. Tang Lunyu drank tea gently.

Even if he threatens Qi Wenmin not to enter the pharmaceutical field now, Qi Wenmin will not listen to him.

Pei Gaofeng was a little overwhelmed and said, "Lao Li." Do you have shares in China Guangfa Bank, are you interested in entering the financial field? ”

Li Yiming smiled: "Don't consider it for the time being." Lao Pei, you can ask Junyao. Mingzhou Commercial Bank is one of the few private banks in China. ”

Gao Junyao was not interested in getting involved in the Qi family and the Li family's pressure on Tang Analects, and he and Cui Jiuxiao were neutral. "My influence at the Commercial Bank of Minnesota is limited. It is the Xu family that really controls Mingzhou Commercial Bank. ”

Qi Wenmin saw that the topic was a little far away, and said, "Old Tang, what is your opinion?" ”

Because the core enterprises of the six major families do not hold each other's shares. It is only a holding in some cooperative companies. Such a community of interests is not strong.

And for Tang Lunyu and others, at their age. status, no need for rhetoric. Or lose your temper to emphasize your opinion. In the end, it was the battle in the market.

However, as the size of the six great families grows larger and larger, if they fight to the death, they will definitely lose both. Therefore, if the cooperation that can be negotiated, the six will still take a step back and will not break up in two. If you can't talk about it, you will go to the most intense way.

At the end of the day, they are businessmen. How to make maximum profits is the subject.

Tang Lunyu said softly: "Is my opinion useful?" Lao Qi, I understand your and Lao Li's thoughts. But to say that the Tang family fell like this, do you think it's possible? ”

Li Yiming smiled and drank tea. The accusations against Tang Analects fell on deaf ears.

A smile appeared on Qi Wenmin's thin face, "Old Tang, I know that Lu Jing made Lao Gao miserable a few years ago. Officially, in private, there are many means. However, to this day, the Lu family is not enough. ”

Yongchi, who was sitting in the back row and had no right to speak, suddenly remembered that night in the Zhongtian Bar, Ying Cong smiled meaningfully.

Gao Junyao keenly discovered Qi Wenmin's words: It's the Lu family, not Lu Jing. I understand a little in my heart. The Lu family is not without opponents.

Pei Gaofeng said sneeringly: "Lao Qi, do you think the Asia-Pacific consortium has so much influence in China?" ”

Qi Wenmin responded fearlessly: "Not necessarily." "Naturally, he won't tell the truth. It's also a great pleasure to mislead these elves.

Tang Yanyu smiled faintly: "Since Lao Qi and Lao Li want to enter the fields of daily chemicals, biopharmaceuticals, and banking, let's see the real chapter under our hands." But. I would advise both of you not to try to enter the cultural industry. ”

He has confidence in Tianchen Entertainment.

Qi Wenmin and Li Yiming smiled. Drinking tea. You can get in touch with Starlight Media when you go back.

Speaking of which, everyone's hole cards are basically the same. The atmosphere in the conference room was a bit dreary.

Listen to the undercurrent of discussion. Gao Wanwei wrote a line of words in the notebook and handed it to Gao Xiuping, who was sitting next to her, and looked at the font of Juanxiu, which looked very comfortable, "Brother Ping, the atmosphere is not right today." ”

On such a heavy occasion today, she knew a little bit about what it was. It's just that, I don't know for what reason, she was called by the second uncle.

You must know that the people attending today's meeting are all powerful figures from major families. Except for the head of the family and the heir, the rest are not assistants. Rather, they are the heads of their respective core enterprises. Qiu Zao, president of Tang Group, is here today.

Gao Xiuping smiled. replied to this temperamental and intellectual sister: You just need to watch the show.

The strategy of the Gao family, the second uncle confessed to him yesterday: the Gao family maintains neutrality, and if the Tang family and the Pei family are not supported, then there is no need to be polite. Of course, do things in a high-profile manner, be a low-key person, and don't make a noise.

After drinking half a cup of tea, Qi Wenmin put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Old Tang." It seems that we are going to have a fight, and I hope you can withstand the pressure from many sides. ”

The Asia-Pacific consortium is in the front, and the Qi family and the Li family are in the back. There are also the Cui family and the Gao family who followed. And the Pei family, an ally of the Tang family, took care of themselves. As for Lu Jing, someone is restrained. This victory is counted as more than eighty percent.

At this time, Tang Lunyu's mobile phone suddenly vibrate. Tang Lunyu looked at it. A happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Okay, I'll be there at any time." How could Tang Analects not have a little anger.

Pei Gaofeng asked cooperatively, "Old Tang." What's the news? ”

Everyone in the conference room looked at it. The news that can make Tang Lunyu exciting is only a big deal.

Tang Lunyu said with a smile: "Fengji Iron and Steel has a cargo ship worth 200 million yuan that was detained by the Yellow Sea Customs. Fengji Iron and Steel lost a lawsuit in the Yellow Sea in 97 years, and has not yet paid 80 million in economic compensation. If you don't pay any more. And the ship was seized. ”

Qi Wenmin and Li Yiming glanced at each other, feeling a little bad. After being slapped in the face at the last Jinlou dinner, Qi Wenmin came to attack Tang Lunyu again today, one is because the current shape is not good for the Tang family, and the other is that he has the support of Shuichi Takeshita.

However, Fengji Steel is a member of the Asia-Pacific consortium. What does this mean by the Yellow Sea Customs? It's not that you can detain one freighter today, but you can naturally detain another one tomorrow. Rather, how did the lawsuit that lasted nearly 8 years be turned over?

Who is so familiar with these past events?

This incident gives a very clear signal: Shuichi Takeshita's assurances may be nothing.

Qi Wenmin said decisively: "Today's meeting is almost over, let's disperse." We'll talk about it tomorrow. "He's going to find out.

Tang Lunyu sneered: "Old Qi, I hope you don't admit it tomorrow." ”

"You..." Qi Wenmin also knew that he had choked Tang Analects enough today, and when he thought about it, his heart was a little smoother, "Old Tang, it is still unknown who killed the deer." If Lu Jing did it, President Takeshita would not stop. ”

As soon as Qi Wenmin's words fell, Pei Wuyue's mobile phone rang. Suddenly, the eyes of a room full of people were attracted to it. During the meeting, everyone's phones were muted.

Pei Gaofeng frowned. "Wu Yue, what's going on?"

Pei Wuyue didn't speak, he answered the phone with a smile, and the voice of his wife Cui Hengbo shouted from inside, "Wu Yue, tell the fourth grandfather, Shuichi Takeshita just invited Lu Jing and Sister Shijing in Hokkaido to go to Tokyo to negotiate. ”

Everyone in the conference room was stunned, and now no one understands that something big is wrong. Eighty percent of the incident occurred in the detention of the Fengji steel freighter. (To be continued......)

PS: In the next 7-10 days, I have some things to deal with. I don't have a manuscript in my hand, which is sad.

Send as much as you can.

Try to make sure that you are constantly changing.
