Chapter 235 The Art of the Emperor

As soon as Li Jin said this, Huo Zhenzhou, who had tipped him off a long time ago, trembled his brows. He didn't expect Li Jin's view to be so direct and pessimistic.

Could it be that the four wealthy families in their port city combined are so weak?

Huo Zhenzhou felt that Li Jin had underestimated the power of the big guys in the room.

The other four big guys all had expressions on their faces, no expressions could be seen.

After a long time, the chartering king said: "Why do you say that? You must know that whether it is funds or experience, we are much stronger than the local faction in the mainland, and the advantage is still huge."

Li Jin smiled and said: "This kind of thing cannot be calculated simply based on book advantages. I naturally believe that the strength of those local factions is difficult to compare with the four giants. But the problem is that such an important thing , even for the superiors, how to distribute the benefits is quite a headache."

"You have to know that our domestic systems are different, so many things cannot be summarized based on the experience of doing business abroad. Moreover, even in the West, once business interests are involved enough, political forces will personally take action."

"Whether it is the local faction or the four wealthy families in our port city, whoever wants to eat all of this cake will inevitably arouse dissatisfaction from the top."

Li Jin made a circle with his fingers in front of him, then cut it in the middle, and said: "The art of checks and balances is also the art of the emperor."

After hearing these words, Li Jiacheng laughed and said, "Your opinion is the same as the result of our previous discussion."

Li Jin looked at Li Jiacheng, but he didn't think Li Jiacheng's words were forced.

With their status and wealth reaching the level of the four wealthy families, could they be fools?

Each of them is smarter than anyone else. This is not a profound truth, so naturally I don’t need to explain it.

Li Jin knew that the real difficult problem for the four giants was still to come.

Sure enough, Li Jiacheng then said: "So in your opinion, how should we take it and how much is reasonable?"

Li Jin sighed in his heart. No matter who answered this difficult question, they couldn't answer it well.

If it's just the Huo family, forget it, it's easy to solve.

But the problem now is that there are four giants, and there are many problems within this alliance that has not yet been formally formed.

Not to mention talking about sharing the cake with the locals?

This is what the higher-ups have to consider, why is it their turn to work so hard here?

But when the question was brought to Li Jin's eyes, he couldn't pretend not to hear it, so after pondering for a moment, he said, "My opinion is, take less."

The words "short" made the bosses of the four major families frown.

Li Jin's answer was obviously not in their interests.

But everyone calmed down and waited for Li Jin to explain.

"Our biggest advantage now is not book wealth, nor so-called experience. These people are not lacking, at least the gap is not so big that it is incomparable."

"Our real advantage is that the superiors want to establish a good cooperative relationship with us and allow us to return to the mainland to invest. On the one hand, it will drive the economic development of the mainland. On the other hand, it will also accelerate the integration of the two places."

“This is our real advantage, and to maximize this advantage, what we need to do is not compete with others, but take what we can, and then put more energy into the mainland. to other regions and industries.”

With a confident smile on his face, Li Jin said: "As long as we reveal this intention, we will gain favor from the superiors and at the same time make the local faction owe us a favor."

"The most important thing is that many investments in other regions and industries in the mainland have great potential. We should look at the whole country, not just one Olympic venue at the moment."

Li Jiacheng's eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something.

The Charter King frowned and said nothing.

Only Mr. Huo and Li Wanji still showed no expression, and it was impossible to tell their attitude towards Li Jin's words.

Li Jin sighed and said: "This is a matter of choosing between short-term and long-term interests. Building Olympic venues can certainly bring the greatest benefits in the shortest time, but in the long run, it will break up with the local faction and overtax the upper management. To show favor to Hong Kong businessmen is tantamount to killing the goose that takes the egg."

"Li Jin, you are a bit alarmist."

The person who said this was Li Yaokang, who had never spoken. He looked at Li Jin happily and said calmly: "In the end, businessmen have to deal with matters on their own. How can the higher-ups care so much?"

"That's natural." Li Jin shrugged, "But it also depends on when and where. Isn't it because you want to win all the Olympic venue construction so much because it is of great significance? Since it is of great significance, how can you ensure that the superiors will not Go out and share the cake in person?"

Li Yaokang smiled coldly and said: "Li Jin, who in this room has not walked on more bridges than you? I asked you to come and let you talk, just to flatter you. Don't take yourself too seriously." "

Li Jin said lightly: "Then I would like to thank Mr. Li for your support? You don't even think about whether I need it?"

Li Yaokang's face darkened and he said calmly: "Young man, you are so angry. Do you really think you are the right one because you have had some success during this period?"

"I don't dare to be the right man, but if you don't want to listen to me, you can leave." Li Jin looked directly at Li Yaokang and refused to give in.

"You!" Li Yaokang suddenly stood up, and the atmosphere between the two instantly became tense.

"Yao Kang."

Li Wanji interrupted Li Yaokang and called him his name lightly, but Li Yaokang did not dare to say any more.

Taking a deep breath, Li Yaokang smiled coldly at Li Jin and sat back.

"Okay, I think we'll talk about this today." Li Wanji said calmly.

"If you have any new ideas another day, we can sit down and talk about it."

Li Wanji's words ended this informal meeting.

After everyone left, Mr. Huo called Li Jin to the study alone.

"Ajin, how sure are you of what you just said?" Mr. Huo asked.

"From my point of view, there is nothing wrong with the advice I gave." Li Jin confidently said.

Nodding thoughtfully, Mr. Huo said: "Then it's settled. Our Huo family is determined to win the construction of the Olympic Village. We estimate that the entire construction will be between 200 and 300 billion Huaxia coins. For this part, I plan to Divide into thirds.”

"The Huo family takes 40%, Li Jiacheng takes 30%, and the remaining 30% is for you."

Li Jin raised his eyebrows and said, "Thirty percent?"

Mr. Huo smiled and said, "Isn't that too young?"

Li Jin smiled bitterly and said: "It's a bit too much. This project takes up too much money. I still have other uses for my money."

"In terms of funds, the Huo family will advance you." Mr. Huo said in surprise.
