On December 26, 1995, only one day away from the conference on investment promotion, media reports were overwhelming, a number of radio stations continued to broadcast relevant content, and the news of the reform of the retail industry next year was also confirmed by the official, for a time, investment promotion was pushed to the cusp, was pushed to the forefront of history, many economic experts and scholars unanimously believe that this will be a cross-era measure, but also for the future WTO accession to lay a firm foundation.

Because before this, Huaxia has always had a very strict control over the retail industry, even if there were some relaxation policies during the period, it was the same as squeezing toothpaste. However, this time the momentum and intensity are clearly much greater than before. Obviously, with the entry of the Internet into China, the opening up of this line will be more rapid and firm.

From the perspective of economic outlook, this approach is naturally aimed at promoting the economy and adapting to the international community. However, from a political point of view, such an approach has increased the difficulty of major events in Xiangjiang.

It seems contradictory, but it makes sense.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Li Siwen and Sparrow came to the Ocean Hotel as promised, and at the door of the box of 606, the security personnel used a metal detector to sweep Li Siwen and Sparrow back and forth four or five times before leading the two in.

"Mr. Li, please take a seat!" Dong Jiacheng saw Li Siwen come in, said with a smile, and then pointed to another chair and said, "This amazing little beauty, please sit down too." ”

There were only Dong Jiacheng and Earl Duke in the room, the former with a smiling face, speaking with extremely rare politeness, and there was no shelf at all.

"Old Dong, I'm really not used to you like this." Li Siwen laughed twice and said.

"We are all like-minded people, there is no need to engage in saber rattling every time, are you right, Mr. Li?" Dong Jiacheng asked with a smile.

"Li'er is such a Li'er, but I'll say something ugly, I'm not the same as Dong Lao." Li Siwen looked at Dong Jiacheng's eyes and said.

Dong Jiacheng disagreed, and said very plainly: "Mr. Li, we came to you this time, in fact, we just want to chat with you calmly, and I hope to get closer to our relationship through this understanding, you say that it is different from me, in fact, I really want to ask, we are both businessmen, what is the difference?" ”

Dong Jiacheng didn't wait for Li Siwen to answer, but continued: "Oh, I seem to understand, you think our positions are different, right? ”

"Since Dong Lao is so sober, why pretend to be confused?" Li Siwen asked rhetorically.

"Mr. Li misunderstood, I'm just old, and my brain is slowing down." Dong Jiacheng paused slightly: "But my heart keeps reminding me which side I should be on." ”

"You're just on the side of capital, so you don't have to say it so freshly." Li Siwen took a sip of wine and replied.

"You're right, I'm really on the side of capital, because I'm capital, I'm trying to help myself, is that wrong? Whether you call me selfish or egoistic, I admit it. Dong Jiacheng paused for two seconds and asked rhetorically, "What about you?" And for whom are you doing all this? For the ground under your feet? Don't you think you're ridiculous? ”

Li Siwen raised his eyebrows slightly, did not refute, and nodded: "Elder Dong is worthy of being experienced in the world, and what he said is very philosophical. ”

"I'm not good at reasoning, I just don't want to see you fall deeper and deeper, I don't understand what kind of promise Mr. Zhu gave you, will make you desperate to help him, as far as I know, this time he convened you real estate developers, and did not provide any financial help, just verbally promised that there will be relevant policy support in the future, but what is the difference between this commitment and empty checks?" Dong Jiacheng smiled when he said this: "Yang Huaxia, the most powerful country, wants you to help, but does not help, is this different from hooligans?" On the contrary, after learning that the delegation participated in this event, we not only added the most professional financial team to us, but also authorized Earl Duke to participate in it, and Count Duke will provide comprehensive financial support for the delegation on behalf of the Grosvenor family. In contrast, the sincerity of the two parties is clearly visible. ”

Li Siwen didn't reply, but continued to taste tea with a teacup, Dong Jiacheng also added with understanding: "Mr. Li, I also said something ugly, don't you think you have fallen into a trap?" Don't you still understand Mr. Zhu's intentions? ”

"You're trying to say that Zhu is always using me?" Li Siwen asked softly.

"Isn't it? You should know that Mr. Zhu was removed from the post of president this time because he broke some rules, and he will not have a good time in the next few years, everyone understands that he wants to return to his original position, you are just a gun in his hand. Dong Jiacheng shook his head and sighed: "You are so smart, you should know his intentions." ”

"And I can tell you unequivocally that once you fall into this pit, it's hard to get out. No matter who is the victor in the end, you will be doomed, and our delegation will spend a little more money at most, but what about you, what can you get? Dong Jiacheng smiled and continued: "On the contrary, politicians from top to bottom eat a lot of money, and I'm sure that once the money is in their mouths, it is impossible to spit it out." ”

"Dong Lao wasted so many tongues, the purpose is to tell me, don't be used, don't fight with you, right?" Li Siwen asked rhetorically.

"That's right, between us, we should have joined hands to eat this cake, so why make a fuss? As long as we settle, I will give you five points of shares in these three plots of land, and I don't have to pay you a penny. Dong Jiacheng said.

"Give me five points? Really? Li Siwen asked with a little excitement.

"Of course it's true, as long as you agree, we can sign a temporary contract now, and the snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit, and I don't want to feed the money into the mouths of those officials." After Dong Jiacheng finished speaking, he stared at Li Siwen and said, "Does Mr. Li think what I said makes sense?" ”

Li Siwen nodded affirmatively: "It makes sense, it makes sense." ”

His statement made the sparrow sitting on the side look a little gloomy, isn't this obviously trying to plot against Li Siwen! But how could Li Siwen cater to it?

Just when she didn't understand, Li Siwen continued: "And I also agree with Dong Lao's words very much, but I'm a greedy person, and I don't think five points is enough." ”

When the sparrow heard this, his face became even worse, and he couldn't help but stretch out his right hand and pinch Li Siwen's thigh fiercely.

The muscles on Li Siwen's face continued to beat, his face was flushed, and his expression was slightly fierce, as if he had made up his mind, which made Dong Jiacheng start to feel that Li Siwen really wanted to talk.

Thinking of this, Dong Jiacheng was secretly happy in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "How much does Mr. Li think?" I can communicate with the delegation, but your request should not be too excessive, after all, this purchase of land is also our joint venture. ”

Li Siwen did not speak, but threw a slightly pleading look at the sparrow, and the latter saw it before letting go of his hand.

At this time, Li Siwen slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Li, haven't you thought about it yet?" Dong Jiacheng asked again.

"Ahem." Li Siwen forced his composure, and then said: "My request is not too much at all, just give me a hundred points." ”

"What?"

"What?"

Dong Jiacheng and Duke exclaimed at the same time, and the gloom on the sparrow's face was swept away, this was the Li Siwen she knew.

"A hundred points? Mr. Li, you didn't talk about cooperation like this, did you? Dong Jiacheng's old face was wrinkled, and he said coldly: "I have shown 100% sincerity, but you are joking with me, right?" ”

"I don't have time to joke with you, I said, I'll ask for a hundred points." Li Siwen replied categorically.

"It seems that Mr. Li still chooses to stand on the other side?" Dong Jiacheng asked fiercely.

"Isn't it possible to join you?" Li Siwen smiled disdainfully.

Syllable!

Duke, who had not spoken, slapped the table and said in Huaxia language: "Li Siwen, you must know that cooperating with us will do you no harm, but if you refuse to cooperate, no matter what the result is, you will face a devastating blow."

You should know that our incense merchants have mastered the retail market of tens of billions, and the major cities in China are basically controlled by us. At that time, your scientific and technological dreams will also be wiped out with you.

The situation in the market cannot be changed, I advise you to reorganize the language just now, and I am willing to give you another chance. ”

After Duke finished speaking, Dong Jiacheng also spoke: "That's right, if you want to participate in one foot, our Xiangjiang delegation will share it equally, that is, each family will take more money, but if you offend us, the market will no longer have a place for Datang, and I dare to guarantee that in next year's retail market, our Xiangjiang will inevitably swallow up the entire China like a flood beast, and at that time, no one will dare to help you." As for the overseas market, I will definitely use all my connections to blockade Datang. ”

The words of the two of them can be said to be in one sentence, which is also what Li Siwen wanted to say to Sparrow last night, Datang Technology is facing such a desperate situation.

As long as you participate in this game, no matter whether you win or lose, you will face the ruthless suppression of Xiangjiang, and even as Dong Jiacheng said, when Xiangjiang capital is injected into the Chinese retail market in large quantities, such a flood beast is not something that Datang can compete with at all.

"yes, that's the expression." Li Siwen actually laughed at the threatening voices of the two: "Only this is your real face, I really don't feel comfortable pretending like you did at the beginning." ”

He paused slightly, his smile retracted, and he said in a cold voice: "Since you have talked about this, I will also make a statement with the two of you, I will decide on these three core areas, and I want them all." But it's not non-negotiable. ”

Dong Jiacheng heard Li Siwen's words, and asked puzzledly: "What do you mean by discussion?" ”

"You've always emphasized that I'm being used as a gunman, but have you ever wondered why I'm willing to be a gun?" Li Siwen asked rhetorically.

Dong Jiacheng was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Li, I hope you can make your words clearer." ”

"Okay, then let me ask Dong Lao, if your delegation wins these three pieces of land, what will the money you earn be used for?" Li Siwen said.

"Business, of course." Dong Jiacheng replied.

"Dong Jiacheng, if you don't pretend to be garlic with me here, don't you think it's clear where your funds will be used? At least some of it will be allocated to the independence faction, right? After Li Siwen finished speaking, he glanced at Duke and said, "And this Earl Duke should be the force behind the independence faction, right?" ”

Dong Jiacheng's eyes darkened and he didn't reply, but Duke smiled contemptuously and said, "You are a businessman, don't you even understand this truth?" Our family has invested a large amount of money in Heung Kong, so naturally we don't want problems. ”

"In other words, you admit that you are the force behind the independence faction?" Li Siwen stared at Duke and asked.

"What's there to dare to admit about this?" Duke asked arrogantly.

"Then let me ask you, have you heard of the Red Fox Foundation?" Li Siwen asked this sentence directly, and the sparrow on the side couldn't help but be a little surprised, she didn't understand why Li Siwen led the matter to this, after all, this topic is very dangerous.

Sure enough, when Dong Jiacheng and Duke heard Li Siwen's words, their eyes changed at the same time, and Dong Jiacheng spoke first: "The illegal foundation that was seized by our Xiangjiang a few days ago, right?" Could it be that Mr. Li has cooperation with the Foundation? ”

"Dong Jiacheng, you don't play sloppy eyes on me here, and I'm not afraid to tell you, I am the president of the foundation, you got rid of my foundation, and you came to rebel against me, do you think I will agree?" Li Siwen said, his tone was slightly softer: "But I just said, everything is discussed, I know that the two of you must know who destroyed the Foundation, as long as you tell me the mastermind behind the scenes, I will withdraw from this auction directly." ”

"Haha, you mean, let us tell you what's behind it?" Duke laughed: "Do you still want to kill Xiangjiang?" ”

"Or else?" Li Siwen said.

"Old Dong, did you hear that? He meant that he wanted to kill Xiangjiang. Duke spread his hands and sneered, "It's the biggest joke I've ever heard in my life." ”

"You don't have to laugh, sooner or later, Lao Tzu will step on your place." Li Siwen said fiercely.

"Good! When the time comes, I will definitely greet you personally. Duke's expression became more and more grim: "Since you want to know who did it, it doesn't hurt for me to tell you." ”

"Wait, Count Duke, I don't interfere in your business, but I need to warn you that you'd better ask for advice on this kind of thing." Dong Jiacheng hurriedly reminded.

"Please? Why do I need to ask for advice? Do you think the Grosvenors will be afraid of him? Can't you hear his provocations and threats? Duke looked at Li Siwen almost without hesitation and said, "Li Siwen, listen, it was my uncle who exterminated the Red Fox, the great Duke of West, and that is a height that you will never be able to reach."

And you should understand that this is a lesson that our family has taught you, if you are a smart person, you should choose to obey us, and not provoke, stupid decisions that will make you regret it for the rest of your life. ”

After Duke finished speaking, he looked at Li Siwen arrogantly.
