As for other aspects, as long as they don't violate our country's laws or individual choices, we can still cooperate with them!

"Chairman Li, we know whether the other party intends to invest in the entire Li Group or some other project. We need to think about it carefully!"

"That hits the nail on the head! Even if it's just a single project, we need to be prepared."

Okay, everyone, please make a detailed plan for the projects you haven't finished yet, and we'll hold another meeting to discuss these projects later.

Also, make a separate list of projects that haven't been completed yet; who knows which ones these people might be interested in!

"yes!"

"Chairman Li, he just called and asked you to come over this afternoon!"

You mean?

"That's right, this is the place!"

"Okay, I understand. What do you all think?"

"Chairman Li, if we could collaborate with them through higher-ups, that would be a whole new level!"

“That’s right. This way, it can become a cooperation between the two countries. It seems that we can’t be careless at all, otherwise it will affect the national honor.”

"You guys hurry up and get to work and prepare. I'll head over there first; I need to sound them out first."

"Yes, that's right!"

I never expected them to use this method to ask for cooperation. It seems the matter is more serious than I thought!

It's unclear what exactly the other party sees in the Li family, as their business ventures are truly unremarkable.

Since the other party has made this choice, that's fine. After all, the level has risen, so the issues to be discussed are now more advanced than before.

"Chairman Li, what brings you here at this hour?"

"I would like to come on time, but I'm not sure what's going on, so I wanted to come and ask what's going on."

Minister Zhang, we're old acquaintances and have worked together before. Please, I urge you to share your knowledge without reservation!

"What kind of talk is this, Chairman Li! Even if I don't tell anyone, I can't make this up to you!"

This is a matter of great importance to the country, so you really don't need to worry so much!

"How can I not be worried? I still don't know what their specific purpose is?"

"Chairman Li, you really don't need to worry. The information we've received is that some people on the other side have their eyes on the entire Li Group and want to raise funds. Even if it can't become a foreign-invested enterprise, it can still become a joint venture."

Several other people had their eyes on one of Li's projects and planned to invest in it so they could share the profits later.

"So you're saying the Li family is now highly sought after!"

"Isn't it highly sought after? Many people came to China this time specifically to discuss cooperation."

"In that case, the decision is in our own hands!"

"That's right, the specifics of how it's done are up to you, Chairman Li. We're just acting as intermediaries!"

"Investing in individual projects is not a problem. In any case, the more funds you have, the more things you can do."

But if this involves financing the entire Li family business, then we need to think about it carefully.

Although I haven't been abroad much, I have seen a lot of news about foreign countries while I was in the port city.

Many of them use fundraising as a pretext, but in reality, they are completely turning the business into their own.

"Chairman Li, it can't be that bad!"

"Whether it's serious or not, I don't know, but I know this isn't an isolated case! This is something that can't be ignored!"

By the way, Minister Zhang, who is it that wants financing, and how much money do they want?

"Mr. Smith, a well-known investor on Wall Street, said he'd invest $1 billion!"

"One billion, or one billion US dollars. It seems the other party doesn't want financing, but rather wants to completely control the Li family and bring about a change of dynasty for them!"

"What does Chairman Li mean by that?"

"Minister Zhang, do you think that, given the current capabilities of the Li family, they are worth 1 billion? In US dollars!"

Isn't this trying to completely replace it?

"What should we do then? This cooperation is of utmost importance, and we cannot afford to make any mistakes! Chairman Li, as you know, our country's development is far behind."

Therefore, this kind of opportunity definitely cannot be missed!

"Minister Zhang, I know and understand, but how I do it is my business. I will not do anything that would harm the country."

But I will not agree to them trying to take over the Li family!

"So what do you plan to do?"

"I don't know yet, I need to think about it carefully."

"Alright! As long as you understand!"

"good!"

Zhang offered 1 billion US dollars to demand the decision-making power from the Li family. How could he possibly let him have his way?

If the Li family were sold off for just 1 billion, it would be worthless.

Twenty years from now, although the Li family is not worth 1 billion US dollars, it is close. In another twenty years, based on the current development, it will be worth at least 5 billion US dollars, if not 10 billion US dollars. The child is really good at calculation!

Since that's the case, then we won't stand on ceremony. At worst, we'll just break up the Li family.

If it becomes multiple companies, it's a good opportunity to become a major shareholder. As for handing over management rights to others, that's not out of the question.

"Chairman Li, you're back!"

"Okay, pass the notice down. All senior executives will have a meeting in the conference room in half an hour."

"yes!"

"Also, if a foreign visitor named Smith comes recently, tell the receptionist that the company is busy from top to bottom and inside to outside and has no time to receive guests."

"yes!"

I had originally planned to gradually step back from the limelight, and this seems like a good opportunity.

"Chairman Li, President Duan just called you and said to contact her as soon as you get back!"

"Okay, I understand. You can go ahead with your work!"

"yes!"

"Hey, Miaomiao, what's up? Did someone call me?"

"Sister, a Hong Kong businessman wants to invest in Mianmiao Garment! What do you think?"

"They mentioned how much to invest, and how to invest?"

"I said, for every unit of investment, I demand a 10% stake!"

"Pre-IPO shares?"

"Yes! Initial public offering (IPO) shares!"

"Sure! No problem. After they invest, it won't be long before we can go public, if it's a good time."

This only shows that the other party has good judgment; otherwise, they wouldn't have had the idea to invest.

"So, you mean you agree, sister?"

"I agree, but this can't be rushed. I can't come over to help you right now! I have some things to take care of!"

"Sister, I know, I've heard about it. There's no rush to talk about joint ventures with Hong Kong businessmen. I think we should let them investigate first. Also, we should at least put on a good show."

"You're right. Our Mianmiao has developed over the years, so we don't care about a short while!"
