Chapter 189, Imperial Group
Solving Johnnie Wang was just a trivial matter for Sheng Tianbu, and he didn't put too much effort into it.
Now, for him, the biggest thing is to enter the mainland in a big way and lay out the future.
Shengtian Group has the 180 tons of gold back, and there is no shortage of funds.
The reform and opening up of the mainland began several years ago, and Hong Kong investment was also very welcome, and many preferential policies were introduced.
If you compare it with the next generation, it is simply a free gift.
Why do many people dislike Li Bancheng?
It's not because the Li family has enclosed various lands in the mainland, and the original intention is to let him invest and promote the development of the region, so a lot of land will be half sold and half given away.
But what did this man do when he got the land?
It's so wild.
Waiting for the country's economy to develop and the value of the land soaring, so that he doesn't have to do anything, just sell those lands, and he can make a lot of money!
Of course, it is not a total famine, but a rapid development, after all, it is necessary to explain to the local government.
A building is said to be completed in three years, but the construction period has been delayed again and again, and it has not been built for ten years.
Doesn't he have any money?
Of course not!
He has money, but his money is not used for this, but for buying land and industries with a fast return on investment.
In small places, the economic development is slow, and he is also slow.
However, if it is an international metropolis such as Yanjing and Shanghai, which are strong enough in their own economy, the construction speed is very fast, because the office buildings can be rented out immediately.
The return of funds is much faster than those small places.
That's what the old gentleman said, he is just a businessman, and he makes any decision from the position of a businessman.
Neither overestimate him nor denigrate him too much.
Very sensible, very realistic, but also very cold-blooded and scoundrel!
He also didn't want to think about it, if many local governments knew that he was this kind of urine, how could they give him so many preferential policies?
If he explained it in advance, he would be considered a hero.
But he just didn't say it, and then made this kind of remark afterwards, which is typical of getting cheap and selling well.
Even if you are sprayed to death, you can't blame others.
Among the many Hong Kong businessmen, there are not only doers like Lei Yingdong who sincerely serve the country, but also opportunists like Li Bancheng.
The latter, often more than the former.
This is the greedy nature of merchants.
To get back to the point, in this era, it can be said that there is a good time and place, and there is only one person left at the moment.
This person and, coming soon!
This person, although Sheng Tianbu is not very familiar, he has also had a relationship before.
It's at the Governor's House.
When Sheng Tianbu met Hong Kong Governor Youde, there was also a high-level official from the mainland.
His name is Li Houze, what is the specific background, he didn't take the initiative to talk about it at that time, and the Hong Kong governor didn't point it out, so Sheng Tianbu didn't ask.
After the incident, Sheng Tianbu did not investigate.
It's not that he's not curious, but he knows that he didn't say it at the time, and he must have his own reasons.
When the time comes, even if he doesn't ask, he will take the initiative to talk about it.
Now, the time has come!
In the midst of these few days of disturbances, Sheng Tianbu received a call from Li Houze, asking him to watch the scenery at Yingming Ridge in Tin Shui Wai at five o'clock in the afternoon.
Sheng Tianbu readily agreed.
——
Tin Shui Wai, located in Yuen Long District, New Territories, Hong Kong Island, is surrounded by several villages such as Sha Kong Wai, Fung Ka Wai and Shrimp Mei New Village, and is about 25 kilometers away from Central.
Since the late 70s, Tin Shui Wai Development Co., Ltd., led by Cheung Kong Asset, has obtained land qualifications for Tin Shui Wai, but in 1982, the company reached an agreement with the Hong Kong Island government.
The government acquired all the land in Tin Shui Wai and turned it into government investment for development.
Changjiang Industry is the foundation of Li Bancheng.
In this era, Tin Shui Wai is far from being developed, and it is full of mountains and green waters, and it is also a good place for Hong Kong Island citizens to visit during holidays.
At half past three o'clock in the afternoon of this day, Sheng Tianbu set off, left the Starlight Building, and rushed towards Tianshui Wai accompanied by Tianyangsheng, Tianyangyi, Wufei, Silly Qiang and others, and arrived at 4:40.
Sheng Tianbu and Li Houze agreed to meet at five o'clock, and in the past, Sheng Tianbu must have arrived on time.
Today is almost half an hour in advance, and the sincerity is very sufficient.
Sheng Tianbu was so long in advance, but when he arrived at the agreed point at the foot of Yingmingling Mountain, he still saw Li Houze.
Six cars parked in a line, the brand is very special, not BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, but Hongqi!
This era is far from being a later generation, and the fact that the Hongqi car alone can explain a lot.
When the car got around, more than a dozen security personnel stood in an orderly manner.
When he saw the leader's face, Sheng Tianbu smiled, which said a lot more about things.
Because that guy's name is Xu Zhengyang!
Although this is only a security chief, his level is not low at all.
If Sheng Tianbu is not mistaken, and the plot is not wrong, this South China Sea bodyguard is at least a colonel-level officer.
When Li Houze saw Sheng Tianbu coming, he got out of the car, greeted Sheng Tianbu with a smile, and quipped: "Mr. Sheng, I have long heard of your style of meeting people. ”
"Never a second early, never a second late, very punctual."
"Today, you've broken your rules."
Sheng Tianbu responded with a smile and said, "The rules are set by people, of course, they must be broken by people, this is nothing." ”
"The times are evolving, and so are people."
"In this world, there are no rules that are immutable, and a better rule can be used for twenty or thirty years, but if you want to develop, you must change."
"Just like now, isn't our country also reforming and opening up and embracing the world?"
Li Houze's eyes lit up, and he smiled and nodded: "Makes sense." ”
Sheng Tianbu smiled and continued: "Besides, I came early, but Mr. Li came earlier than me. ”
"It seems that it is really a wise choice for me to break the rules I have set for Mr. Li."
Li Houze smiled.
Everyone says that Mr. Sheng of Hong Kong Island is arrogant and arrogant, and there is no one in his eyes, but he also has to divide the situation and people, at least he gets along with this Mr. Sheng, like a spring breeze, relaxed and happy.
When the two were talking and laughing, Xu Zhengyang's eyes were like electricity, and he kept sweeping the faces of Tian Yangsheng, Tian Yangyi and others, refusing to let go of any detail.
The black fly and stupid Qiang were seen by Xu Zhengyang.
It's not just Xu Zhengyang, but the other bodyguards all exude a momentum that they can't speak, but they can't explain.
are also bodyguards, but the gap is extremely obvious, and the professional temperament is very different.
Even if it is Tian Yangsheng and Tian Yangyi, they may be able to compete with them, but in terms of professional skills, they are greatly inferior.
Xu Zhengyang looked at Sheng Tianbu with a cold face, and said, "Mr. Sheng, according to the regulations, I need to check your people, I hope you don't mind." ”
Sheng Tianbu shrugged his shoulders and said, "This is your job, I don't care." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Sheng."
Xu Zhengyang nodded and thanked him at the same time.
In fact, according to the regulations, even Sheng Tianbu has to be strictly searched, but it is still the same sentence, the regulations are the regulations, the reality is the reality, and it is impossible to really do that.
However, he was unable to complete the search.
Li Houze waved his hand and said, "Zhengyang, forget it, Mr. Sheng is not an outsider, there is no need." ”
Xu Zhengyang didn't say more.
Li Houze smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go to the mountain and have a look, and your people will stay below." ”
Sheng Tianbu didn't say much, but said, "Okay." ”
Tianyangyang, Tianyangyi, Wufei, Silly Qiang and others stayed at the foot of Yingmingling Mountain, Sheng Tianbu and Li Houze walked together and began to climb the mountain.
As we walked, we chatted at the same time.
The people led by Xu Zhengyang did not all go, 8 people stayed, and the remaining 8 people were under the leadership of Xu Zhengyang, closely following Sheng Tianbu and Li Houze.
All around is full of greenery, and a variety of unknown wild grasses combine to form a sea of green.
When a cool breeze blows, the weeds sway and undulate, like ocean waves, which is refreshing.
Half an hour later, Sheng Tianbu, Li Houze and his entourage came to the halfway point of Yingmingling, the terrain was already extremely high, the field of vision was broad, looking into the distance, the villages and fish ponds all fell into view.
The two stopped halfway up the mountain and did not go any further.
While climbing the mountain, the two were chatting.
It's all about the parents, and they don't talk about business at all, mainly to enhance the understanding between the two sides, set off the atmosphere, and pave the way for the next formal conversation.
In those small talks, Sheng Tianbu knew the identity of Li Houze, the deputy director of the Handong Provincial Public Security Department, and he was about to go up.
Knowing his identity, it is reasonable for him to intervene in the Kowloon Walled City.
Li Houze looked at the scenery in the distance and said, "Mr. Sheng, you see how beautiful this scenery is, how good the scenery is, if it is destroyed, what a pity." ”
Sheng Tianbu heard the deep meaning of Li Houze's words, nodded and said: "Mr. Li, don't worry, as long as I am here, no one has the ability to do this, stability is the most important." ”
"Well, thank you, Mr. Sheng, just like I thought."
Li Houze nodded, no longer in the clouds, and said straight to the point: "I haven't had the opportunity to say anything about the Kowloon Walled City, thank you Mr. Sheng." ”
"Without Mr. Sheng's intervention, it would have taken at least several years for the Kowloon Walled City to be demolished, but now, it won't take that long, and this outlaw place will disappear before 90 years."
Sheng Tianbu didn't take this matter to heart at all, and said casually: "It's nothing, it's just a trivial matter, and I did it easily." ”
Li Houze chuckled: "For Mr. Sheng, of course, this is just a small matter, and for us, this is also a small matter, but this small matter must be solved." ”
"Mr. Sheng, I know that you are interested in investing and building factories in the mainland, why don't you go to Handong Province?"
As he spoke, Li Houze himself smiled and said, "It's set in Shencheng, and I am responsible for setting up a line from it, and let the people of Shengtian Group talk to relevant departments about the details of cooperation." ”
"The preferential treatment that should be given will definitely be in place, and Mr. Sheng doesn't have to worry about this."
"These things are not under my control, but to attract investment, every place is very needed, and it is also very welcome, if it can make Shengtian Group enter Handong, it is also a great thing."
It's not just a good thing, it's a great achievement.
Handong Province, the frontier of reform and opening up, is also the focus of the country's efforts.
With the strong support of the state, Shencheng has developed from a small fishing village with no name to an important international metropolis in just 40 years!
Compared to other international metropolises, it can be called a miracle.
Handong needs every investor like Sheng Tianbu, and Sheng Tianbu also needs Handong.
Li Houze, the informant, is the same.
"Good!"
Sheng Tianbu said categorically: "Then it will be in Shencheng, and I plan to invest at least 5 billion Hong Kong dollars to build a large-scale high-tech development zone, just like Zhongguancun Science and Technology Park." ”
"I've already thought of a name, it's called Guoke Industrial Park."
"Once completed, all the high-tech industries of our Guoke Group will move in, in addition, Fuxing United Garment Group will also build a factory in Shencheng, which will involve various industries such as clothing, shoes, and bags."
"In addition to these investments, I also plan to do chain restaurants, hotels, and real estate development, but this is all follow-up."
"Let's take the first step."
After saying this, Li Houze was slightly startled, turned his head, and looked at Sheng Tianbu in surprise.
Where is this still what is the investment promotion, it is clearly industrial transfer!
Bet on most of your net worth!
Other people's investment in the mainland is at best a small fight, and no one will do that, because the uncertainties are too great.
Even the whole country is not so confident.
In the reform and opening up, there is no case to learn from, and it is all crossing the river by feeling the stones.
But Sheng Tianbu dared to do this!
Stripped of personal feelings and purely from a business point of view, it only shows one thing: he is very, very optimistic about the future of the country!
Li Houze looked at Sheng Tianbu fixedly, looked at it for a few seconds, and then said slowly: "Mr. Sheng, thank you!" ”
"Where."
Sheng Tianbu smiled and said, "If you want to say that, then I should also thank Mr. Li." ”
"This is a good thing for mutual benefit, a win-win situation, I go to invest, and not simply do charity, I will be able to make a lot of money immediately, and I will have more money in the future, nothing more to say."
Li Houze and Sheng Tianbu looked at each other, no one was hypocritical anymore, and they all smiled.
Once the general direction was decided, the conversation ended.
The policies for attracting investment, the details of specific cooperation, and so on, are not Li Houze's job, and he is not very well understood.
He is only responsible for taking a line from it.
Sheng Tianbu and Li Houze stood halfway up the Yingming Ridge, chatted for more than half an hour, and then left under the protection of Xu Zhengyang and others.
In this meeting, the two talked not only about investment, but also about Hong Kong Island.
Li Houze said euphemistically that he would need Sheng Tianbu's help in the future.
Sheng Tianbu happily agreed.
For him, a stable social system is undoubtedly beneficial to himself.
When the two were chatting, Li Houze was a little curious about Sheng Tianbu's choice.
His doubts are actually the same as Lu Qichang two years ago.
That is, with Sheng Tianbu's intelligence, there is no need to wade into the muddy waters of the rivers and lakes, concentrate on business, and in a few years, he will definitely be able to achieve this level and become the richest man in Hong Kong and the Olympics.
In that case, why did you choose this option?
Sheng Tianbu chuckled.
His answer was only four words: unwilling to bow his head!
Hearing this answer, Li Houze was silent, and finally understood, but he didn't know how to evaluate it.
It's a crazy time, it's the same everywhere.
Whether it is the Hong Kong Olympics or the mainland, there are countless associations, Jiaotou, soil emperors, and road tyrants.
What kind of mafia is there in Europe and the United States, as well as all kinds of gangsters who rob banks.
All kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods appear in powder.
Rampant and lawless.
In this era, you still want to never bow your head when doing business, this is to make money standing up, how can it be so simple? ——
The next morning, a certain building.
There are a few people in the conference room, this building is not Shengtian's property, Anhe Real Estate only bought three of the floors for rent, and today was selected by Sheng Tianbu to hold an internal meeting.
is not in the Starlight Building, the headquarters of Shengtian, it is because the few people who participated in the meeting today have a special identity.
In addition to Sheng Tianbu and Zhanmi, there are Li Jie, Azu, Zowei, and Tachibana Masahito, all of whom are zodiac.
Feng Yu Xiu didn't come.
That guy is a pure martial idiot, and it's okay to order him to do things, but it's not okay to discuss things with him, so he simply didn't call him over.
In addition to these people, there is another guy, and that is Abu of the SG mercenary group.
Now, he has grown up.
The strength is already good, in terms of skill, it is not weaker than the sky to maintain health, sealed in cultivation, plus the previous successful test of 240 tons of gold in the Sahara Desert, loyalty is not a problem.
Therefore, during this time, after contact, Abu was also selected into the zodiac, codenamed Zi Rat.
With the addition of John Rambo, there are already ten people in the zodiac.
The current SG mercenary group has two main leaders, one is Abu, and the other is Rambo, the latter is the commander-in-chief, and the former holds the position of deputy commander.
After the gold incident, Sheng Tianbu didn't pay much attention to it, and let them develop wildly and frantically abroad.
Abu only returned to Hong Kong last night to report two things to Sheng Tianbu.
The first is the diamond and gold mines in Africa!
The second is the oil of the Middle East!
To be precise, the competition is for the right to trade oil, and the profits are huge, and if you do well, you can make hundreds of millions of dollars a year, or even billions!
The bigger the pie, the more people want to get a piece of it.
The Middle East, that's a mercenary's paradise!
The forces of all parties are intertwined, and the fighting there will be as tragic as the benefits are.
Recently, the SG mercenaries have begun to take root, and they have fought with the original forces, fighting back and forth several times, and their own side has been killed and wounded, but the enemy has suffered more damage.
Sheng Tianbu didn't pay attention to these things at all before, but now he heard Abu talk about it with his own ears, and he thought it was quite interesting.
After staying in a civilized society for a long time, suddenly hearing this kind of story, it is like returning to the barbaric era in an instant.
There are no laws, no morals, all just to survive!
in the conference room.
Zhanmi took the lead in reporting the situation of Guoke Technology with Sheng Tianbu, and Mai Tishuang's drastic reform was nearing the end, and the resources of the six factories had been fully integrated.
Next, it is necessary to complement each other and continue to produce.
Sheng Tianbu has other things, he wants to talk to Zhanmi, but the royal business has nothing to do with the zodiac, what they need to do is the evil way of buying and selling the sword.
So Sheng Tianbu motioned to Zhan Mi to stop speaking first, and asked Abu about the situation of the SG mercenaries in the recent period.
Abu replied quickly.
Diamonds and gold mines in Africa can be bought as long as there is enough money, and when they are shipped back to Hong Kong Island, it is time for 'Mr. Sheng Jewelry and Gold Industry' to play a role and use them as raw materials.
It is a perfect industrial production chain, from raw materials to jewelry design, to making craft products to sell to consumers.
In each of these links, as long as you are capable enough, you can make a lot of money!
In the chaotic land of Africa, sometimes, diamonds, gold mines, etc., you don't have to buy them at all, you just grab them.
The same is true for the right to trade oil in the Middle East.
The difference is that the oil market is much larger than diamonds and gold mines, the latter is just a luxury and many people may not be able to afford it, but the former is involved in all aspects of modern industry.
Sheng Tianbu was more interested in this.
After listening to Abu's report, Sheng Tianbu was slightly stunned in his heart, because countless familiar names appeared.
For example: the mafia!
Among them, the outstanding representative is the Corleone family, the head of the five Newyork families.
By this time, the family's first godfather, Victor Corleone, had gone into hiding, and the power had been handed over to his son, Mike Corleone.
Mike Corleone did not take the throne for long, only two years.
This second-generation godfather is really a ruthless man, much more ruthless than his father, he is now holding back his hatred, and he has not retaliated against the other four major families of Newyork, but he is not idle.
The first thing he did was to transform the family industry, which has begun to be slowly whitewashed.
Other industries are not mentioned for the time being, just the oil trade.
He dragged the other four families into the water, and the Corleone family took the largest share, and then dressed in the skin of an international trading company, he brazenly entered the market and won a lot of market share.
The Corleone family, as well as the other four Newyork families, this is from The Godfather!
Another example: Kingsgroup!
Translated, it is the Imperial Group.
This is the undoubted king of the Taiguo rivers and lakes, the kind that can't even see the taillights of their Kingsgroup after 108,000 miles of the second-ranked organization.
As long as they are there, the other gangs don't dare to fart, and they don't dare to speak too loudly.
This deformed organization seems to have exhausted all the luck of the Taiguo rivers and lakes, so that apart from them, there is no second qualified one.
The big drug lord who is a fan of the Hong Kong Olympics and often deals with is from the Emperor Group.
Sheng Tianbu was interested in this organization, and that was because this organization had the so-called eight peerless masters, all of whom were Jin Mengkong.
One of them is named Dafan!
Thinking of this person, Sheng Tianbu couldn't help but glance at Zovi.
If they didn't have themselves, these two should have a fateful duel, and then they were heroes and heroes, and finally came up with a duo of 'Double Heavens Supreme' and became legends in the dark world.
I don't know what will happen now.
In addition to these two major forces, there are also the Yamaguchi-gumi, the Sanlian Gang, the Pine Forest Gang and the like.
The list goes on and on.
All the gangs that are a little famous in this world are all based in their homeland, and when they find an opportunity, they will expand wildly outward and get a piece of the oil trade.
Now, Sheng Tianbu also wants to eat this bowl of rice!
After listening to Abu's speech, Sheng Tianbu thought for a few seconds and said, "In other words, the biggest problem of SG now is professional-level talents, right?" ”
Abu nodded and said, "That's right, Brother Tian." ”
"The current situation of the SG mercenaries is that the dog is the commander, I am the deputy commander, and the dog itself is a special soldier, with extremely superb combat skills and excellent command ability."
"Brother Tian, you asked me to be his deputy, the original intention was to let me learn more with him."
"But the problem now is that the Middle East is big, and Africa is also big, don't say that only the two of us are leading the team, even if we are combined, it is not enough to win anywhere."
"I, the deputy commander, usually lead the team to do things on my own."
