The fact that the Li family recognized the potential behind the HarmonyOS system and wanted to get involved surprised Zhou Chen.
As expected of the head of the Li family, this proves that Li Zhenrong has a very keen eye for talent.
Since the Li family had said so, Zhou Chen naturally had no reason to turn away something that had been offered to him, and asked for another 10% of the shares.
In fact, if Zhou Chen had just one more percent of the shares, he would own 51 percent of the Li family business, giving him the greatest decision-making power. He could agree to or disagree with any decision made by the Li family business.
However, since it's business, Zhou Chen naturally wants to maximize his profits.
As for whether the Li family agrees or not...
Zhou Chen didn't care, because no matter what, he hadn't lost anything.
Not long after,
Li Meihui called again.
Hearing the tone of the other party's voice, Zhou Chen knew that the Li family had compromised.
"Mr. Zhou, 10% of the shares is too much, 5% is the most we can offer."
Although Li Meihui was mentally prepared to give up some of the family's interests, she still felt a great deal of pain.
Li Zhenrong was more open-minded, believing that the difference between giving Zhou Chen one percent or five percent was not significant, and as long as the Li family could participate, they would definitely make a profit in the end.
In any case, this way, the Li family and Zhou Chen are now tied together, and the latter will inevitably lean towards the Li family.
"It's a pleasure to work with you."
Zhou Chen hesitated for a moment, then smiled and agreed.
By deliberately asking for so many shares, they were naturally leaving room for negotiation. Five percent was quite a lot, enough to make the Li family feel the pinch for a while.
As for the subsequent signing of the share transfer agreement, Zhou Chen does not plan to go to Hong Kong Island in person; naturally, someone from the Li family will have to come.
With this additional 5% share, his stake in the Li family directly becomes 55%, meaning that from now on, Zhou Chen has the final say in the Li family.
It would be incredibly difficult for Li Xiaolong to continue trying to cause trouble in front of him.
However, he thought that Li Xiaolong's expression at this moment would be quite interesting if he knew this news.
And that is indeed the case.
Li Meihui did not hide this matter and took the initiative to tell Li Xiaolong.
Li Xiaolong was completely stunned when he learned that Zhou Chen had become the largest shareholder of the family and had the most say.
Li Meihui recounted Li Zhenrong's words verbatim and advised Li Xiaolong to stop thinking about being enemies with Zhou Chen. Now, Zhou Chen has decisive power in business, and the Li family must obey him.
This news was a significant blow to Li Xiaolong.
"Mom, let me go sign the share transfer agreement this time."
Li Xiaolong suddenly looked up and said seriously.
Li Meihui looked surprised.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything reckless. This is Grandpa's decision, and I think he's right. If our Li family wins the gamble, the benefits will be unimaginable."
Li Xiaolong, being a smart man himself, quickly understood Li Zhenrong's actions.
This is a high-stakes gamble, betting that the Li family will allow Zhou Chen to ride the wave of opportunity and become the next giant like Tencent or Alibaba.
This left Li Xiaolong with mixed feelings, because even he couldn't get Li Zhenrong to go to this extent.
But Li Xiaolong had to admit defeat, after all, he had lost to Zhou Chen many times.
It's no wonder that Li Zhenrong thinks highly of Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen can indeed bring surprises time and again, even more so than him.
Li Meihui did not agree immediately, and planned to consult Li Zhenrong's opinion first before replying to Li Xiaolong.
"Grandpa will definitely agree."
Li Xiaolong said confidently.
Ten minutes later,
Just as Li Xiaolong had guessed, Li Zhenrong agreed and relieved him of his confinement.
The grandfather and grandson talked for a long time that day.
Li Xiaolong immediately embarked on his journey to the mainland.
...
Having finally recovered from the blow of Zhou Chen's private equity fund making 30 billion yuan, Zhou Ling was once again overcome with jealousy and fainted upon hearing the bombshell news that Zhou Chen was also the boss of HarmonyOS Technology.
Two consecutive blows forced Zhou Ling to be hospitalized.
After a day of IV fluids, my complexion finally improved a lot.
Zhao Kun felt very annoyed because Zhou Ling was hospitalized, and he had to do everything.
He couldn't even go to the secret cabin and wear his favorite clothes.
Zhou Ling really knows how to cause him trouble.
Fortunately, Zhou Ling was discharged from the hospital the next day. After returning home, Zhou Ling was still depressed, cursing Zhou Chen while searching for news about him.
soon,
A photograph caught Zhou Ling's eye, reigniting her anger and causing her blood to rush to her head.
The photo showed none other than Zhou Chen and Li Xiaolong talking. Li Xiaolong had a fawning expression on his face, no longer the arrogant young master of the Li family who used to look down on Zhou Chen.
"They're all trash. The Li family is a load of rubbish. In the end, they've become Zhou Chen's dog too."
"Pah!"
Zhou Ling was angered once again and started cursing, venting her envy, jealousy and hatred.
News about Zhou Chen is everywhere online, making her more prominent than ever before, and all sorts of titles are flying around.
Entrepreneurs, future business tycoons, once-in-a-century geniuses, and so on.
Zhou Ling's face turned green upon seeing this.
"Zhou Chen, don't be so arrogant and smug, or you'll regret it."
Sooner or later, the higher you stand, the harder you fall.
Helpless, Zhou Ling had no choice but to fly into a rage of impotence.
Nowadays, she's like a clown, capable of nothing but jumping around in secret.
That night,
When Zhao Kun returned, he saw Zhou Ling binge eating, constantly munching on various snacks.
