"You're right. I just don't understand why foreigners are watching us."

"I'm afraid it's not just you who doesn't understand, even Chairman Li doesn't understand. Otherwise, she wouldn't have risked dismantling and rebuilding."

"That's true!"

"Wife, you're back!"

"Yes, I'm back!"

"Why do you look so tired? Did something happen at the company?"

"It's alright! It's just that there's been too much going on lately!"

"If anything happens to the company, even though I can't be of much help, I can still give you some advice!"

"It's nothing, it's just that someone wants to invest, but the amount of money they're investing is too much!"

"Investment? How much?"

"One billion US dollars!"

"What? A billion dollars? In US dollars? That's so much! Isn't that a good thing? Why are you worried?"

"It's a good thing, but under the current circumstances, all the businesses under my name combined are not worth this money. If I accept this money, then it's no longer my company."

Not only can they only become shareholders, but they also have no say in other matters.

"I see? What should we do then?"

"The most crucial thing now is that the other party has reached out to higher-ups, and they've gotten involved. Moreover, they're taking this matter very seriously."

"What? Then what do you plan to do? Are you just going to hand over the company to them?"

"How could that be? All I can do now is dismantle and rebuild, turning one into many."

Since the other party is going to invest, then change everything, and it would be best to change the legal representative as well.

That way, I can relax a bit.

"But then, wouldn't the company no longer be yours?"

"At least they are still our own people, not foreigners, and I have only moved from the front of the stage to behind the scenes."

That way, you'll have more time to spare.

"Then what is there to worry about?"

“My concern is that after the legal entity is changed, they will no longer arrange jobs for demobilized soldiers or solve employment problems for their families.”

"You don't need to worry about that. The government is increasing its efforts in this area, and there will always be a solution."

"That's true. At worst, we can see if there are any other good projects later and arrange other jobs for them."

"Isn't that enough? Don't overthink it. Don't put pressure on yourself. This isn't your responsibility. You've already done a lot by helping the military with so much work. We can't expect everyone to rely on you for everything, otherwise no one will appreciate your kindness."

"That's true."

After shuffling things up like this, see who's still interested. If they are, then introduce their financing options.

If they don't accept it, that's fine too. We'll release the news later, and plenty of people will invest. We can't let Smith have a monopoly.

Even if everyone invests a little money, Smith will only take a smaller share.

If the reason for the withdrawal of investment is that the other party was testing the waters from the very beginning.

Then his motives are probably not pure, and we don't know what the other party wants to do.

But don't worry now, the fox's tail will be revealed sooner or later.

As for the others, there's nothing to worry about. After all, they've already invested some money in the early stages. Even if they invest more, it won't stop them from making money. It'll just mean that their share of the profits will be less.

"Chairman Li, the message you just instructed has been spread."

Okay, I understand.

By the way, lately, whoever comes to visit is scheduled for three days from now, and I will set aside a day to see them then.

If Mr. Smith comes, let's arrange it for noon. You can arrange the rest as you see fit.

However, I don't dine with other people; remember that.

"yes!"

We have to put on airs. It's not like we're begging them to invest; they're the ones who came to us. So, the initiative is on our side.

"Chairman Li, the person in charge from Miaoshan has arrived!"

"Let him in!"

"yes!"

"Chairman Li, you wanted to see me!"

...

"Chairman Li, everything is ready. When would you like to register?"

"Finance, once you've verified the shareholding, just go directly there!"

"Chairman Li, everything has been verified. You are still the largest shareholder. What are your thoughts on the legal representative?"

"Let him be the legal representative, the second largest shareholder! Remember, when this project is handed over to you, I don't expect you to bring me huge profits within three years, I just hope for steady progress!"

"yes!"

"Besides this, I will keep all other official seals and such for the time being!"

"I need to resolve this matter before giving it to you. It's not that I don't trust you, but I'm afraid they'll infiltrate everywhere."

"Yes, we're fine!"

"Have someone spread the word at the same time, and let's hear the news before making a decision!"

As for whether Smith will invest again, we'll know within three days!

"That's right."

“Chairman Li, even if the other party wants to invest, I'm afraid they won't put up 1 billion US dollars.”

“I can accept 500 million US dollars from the other party, but no more! I need to own more than 52% of the shares in this company, otherwise the initiative will not be in my hands.”

"By then, there will be very little we can do."

"Chairman Li, do you have other plans for me?"

"I just have some ideas, but there are still some difficulties in implementing them, and the timing is not right now, so we have to wait."

Can I tell you?

What do you think?

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked!"

"It's not that I don't want to tell you, but at least two-thirds of the people who know about this disagree with it, so I'm just thinking about it for now!"

"Will that affect the Li family and its businesses?"

"No, this idea is just my personal thought and it won't have any impact on the company or you. You can rest assured about that!"

"That's good. It seems that our company can't withstand any more pressure in the short term."

"Don't worry! I won't let anyone lay a hand on the Li family. With me here, it won't be so easy for anyone else!"

"I was worried about the filter."

"No, your concern is valid and correct."

By the way, now that everything's ready, go register! Then move the project over as usual.

"yes!"

"Is the office space ready?"

"It's all set up, and there's a perfect empty spot on the 28th floor!"

"Okay, that way we can resolve any issues promptly."

"yes"

"Mr. Li, Mr. Smith has had his secretary call to invite you to dinner tomorrow evening?"

“I said you never have dinner with anyone other than your husband, and you never go to lunch appointments.”

What did they say?

"The other party asked when you would be available, as Mr. Smith is eager to meet with you."
