But Li Zekai felt uncomfortable listening to this. In his opinion, his father, Li Ka Shing, was very biased! If his elder brother, Li Zeju, had asked the same question and wanted to enter the real estate industry in Longguo, would he still be so opposed? ! He would have probably planned it for him in advance, and even helped to greet and contact some "old friends", right? Such differential treatment made Li Zekai even more annoyed.
A few minutes later, Li Zekai, who was indignant, walked out of Li Ka Shing's office expressionlessly, met up with his assistant, and left Hutchison Whampoa without saying a word. The assistant who followed him saw that his boss looked unhappy, so he also tactfully acted as a "mute" and drove for him silently.
After Li Zekai returned to PCCW, he gave instructions to his subordinates, "Contact Comet Capital for me and see if you can get the phone number of the person in charge of Tianfu Real Estate Company. I want to discuss a cooperation with them..."
The assistant was stunned for a moment, then asked in a somewhat suspicious tone, "Boss Li, are you planning to... enter the real estate company in mainland China?"
"What? Do you have any objection to my order? Or do you think that we, PCCW, cannot enter the real estate industry?!" Facing the question from his subordinates, Li Zekai's tone was a little cold. This time he insisted on being persistent. He not only wanted to get the job done but also to do it beautifully, in order to prove that what some people say and think may not be entirely correct!
"That's not what I meant. I'll contact Comet Capital right now..." The assistant was quite nervous after being questioned. He quickly changed his words for fear that the chairman of the company in front of him would get completely furious and take it out on him.
…
When Zhang Junfeng and his group returned to Goryeo and went to work at Comet Capital as usual the next day, the phone placed on the side suddenly rang. Zhang Junfeng checked the caller ID, "Hey, why did Ye Boyang call me suddenly? Didn't we just chat a few days ago? Is there something wrong?"
As soon as he answered the phone, Ye Boyang's hearty laughter came from the other end, "Hey, Junfeng, I finally got through to you! What did you talk about with the chairman of PCCW in Hong Kong? This guy wants to cooperate with us to set up a joint venture company to jointly invest in real estate, and he said he would invest tens of billions of RMB!"
"Hundreds of billions of RMB? Brother Ye, are you sure that Li Zekai said that?!" Zhang Junfeng was also quite surprised. He just set up a trap for Li Zekai with the mentality of giving it a try, but he didn't expect that this guy would come up to him and get in so quickly. He is really a "smart guy"~!
"Of course it's true! And Mr. Li also said that he has cooperation with your Comet Capital. He is very optimistic about the real estate industry in Longguo, so he wants to find insiders to cooperate and participate." Ye Boyang said with a little pride. It's really exciting to be able to get the affirmation of the head of a big company in Hong Kong. Just thinking about this inexplicable sense of accomplishment is really exciting!
"Then you just need to follow the process. If PCCW can really come up with tens of billions of dollars to invest, then Tianfu Real Estate can naturally come up with an equal amount or even more to set up a joint venture~! As long as the company's management rights are still in our hands, no matter how big the problems are."
Hearing what Zhang Junfeng said, Ye Boyang nodded, but he was still a little confused, "But brother Junfeng, is this Li Zekai really worth us winning over? If he is not of the same mind as us, we can't guarantee what will happen in the future~!"
"It's not a big problem. As long as we have common goals and interests, he will be our best ally. As for whether we are of the same mind or not, it doesn't matter. As long as the goal can be achieved~!" Zhang Junfeng said meaningfully. As long as Li Zekai takes the initiative to board the ship, they will have a big stake in the upper class and elite class of Hong Kong. If there are important things that need to be done in Hong Kong, they can also achieve their goals through Li Zekai's channels without attracting too much attention.
Hearing Zhang Junfeng's words, Ye Boyang quickly understood what he meant. Since the positioning was "mutual benefit", then it would be easy for him to start. Anyway, other things were secondary, as long as the common interests of both parties could be guaranteed! ...
As time went by, the new presidential candidate finally decided the winner. Mr. Wu Xuan, who served as the Minister of Oceans and Fisheries of Goryeo in 2000, successfully won and became the new president and will be officially sworn in in February next year. This news made those political and business celebrities who supported Lee Hoi-chang quite annoyed. Obviously, they had a big advantage at the beginning, but their good cards were ruined, and Wu Xuan, whom they looked down upon, won the election! According to their understanding of Wu Xuan, if this guy came to power, the good days of a large number of them would end early. How can they not panic? But now their biggest reliance is gone, how they deal with the man who is about to take office and stand at the pinnacle of Goryeo power has become their most troublesome problem! Along the way, who dares to say that their butts are clean? According to Goryeo tradition, the "Curse of the Blue House" has lasted for many years, and no one has been able to escape it so far. In addition, after taking office, these presidents have "warmly entertained" their former competitors, and only a few have been able to escape unscathed.
——————Dividing line——————
"Brother Junfeng, do you think this 'Choi Kyu-sun incident' will have some adverse effects on Mr. Dae Jong?" Kim Jong-min, who was sitting in the office, asked his staunch ally Zhang Junfeng about the situation with his mobile phone.
According to the information collected by the staff of the Supreme Procuratorate, the people involved in this matter are Mr. Da Zhong's sons, and he has nothing to do with him. However, since the matter was exposed by someone, the prosecutors can only act according to the procedure.
However, in Kim Jong-min's opinion, this was an awful scapegoat that was difficult for Mr. Daejong to get rid of, and once he was involved, there was almost no chance of escaping. When he thought of the other party as his "benefactor" who had promoted him, his mood became quite complicated.
Zhang Junfeng smiled and consoled him, "Mr. Da Zhong is not Yong San. His methods are far more sophisticated than you think. At most, Mr. Da Zhong's reputation will be damaged. Apart from that, what other impact will there be on him? Can you provide definite evidence?"
"... For us, what we really need to deal with carefully is not this matter, but Mr. Wu Xuan who is about to take office. It is more like a double-edged sword. If it is not used properly, it is very likely to hurt ourselves."
Hearing Zhang Junfeng say this, Jin Zhongmin nodded in agreement. Based on his many years of experience as a prosecutor, this was most likely another "meritorious act" deliberately made by someone to please Mr. Wu Xuan, who was about to take office.
"Don't worry, brother Junfeng. I know what's going on. I've already prepared all the dirty laundry about SK Group and Yuetian Group. As long as you give the order, someone on our side will reveal all the dirty laundry at the first opportunity. It will definitely make Cui Taiyuan and Xing Gehao and his son pay the price."
"That's great. But we don't need to be too hasty. We might as well wait for a while to see what Mr. Wu Xuan will deal with first after he takes office, and then make a decision." Zhang Junfeng did not particularly agree with the behavior of revealing explosive information right away. He was more inclined to throw out bait to lure the other party to follow actively and step by step into the trap they had designed long ago.
"Okay, since the plan was drawn up by you, I'll just follow your instructions and cooperate!" Kim Jong-min smiled knowingly. He was excited when he thought that Comet Capital would take advantage of this opportunity to severely damage SK Group and Yuetian Group, and he would also be able to profit from it and make a lot of "investment income".
That huge sum of money was enough for his family to live a comfortable, affluent upper-class life for decades after he retired.
…
In addition to contacting Kim Jong-min, Zhang Junfeng also did not forget to call to appease Mr. Tae-woo. Everything is currently under his control. With just a little guidance, everything will go as they planned. Sister Suying's chance to regain everything she lost will soon come.
"... Zhang boy, are you sure there won't be any problems with the plan? We old bones naturally don't care. If we get a young man like you and the entire Comet Capital involved, it will be a waste of time." Although Mr. Tai Yu was still very tempted by Zhang Junfeng's plan, he didn't want Zhang Junfeng to take too much risk.
Anyway, as long as Zhang Junfeng and Comet Capital are still there, his Lu family and all the families of Kaka can still be protected. If he plots against the man on the throne of the Blue House in secret, once he is discovered by the other party, he will probably get into big trouble.
As a man who has been in that position, Mr. Taewoo knows too well how much desire for power that position will bring to a person. Especially when he finds himself being teased by others and becoming a tool in the hands of others, he will definitely be furious and want to cut the mastermind behind the scenes into pieces to vent his hatred.
Zhang Junfeng didn't take it to heart, but replied with a smile, "Don't worry, Mr. Taiyu, we are fully prepared. Even if the plan fails, Comet Capital will not be implicated. Just wait and see~!"
…
Over the weekend, Zhang Junfeng and Li Fuzhen took their son Zhang Dongxian to the hospital to visit their grandfather Zhang Fushan. His physical condition has been getting worse over time. In addition to his continued memory loss, his body has also become much older. According to what the attending doctor at the hospital told him privately, the old man's Parkinson's disease has entered the middle and late stages. Once the symptoms worsen again and enter the late stage, he may only have a few short months to live. He may not even be able to get up in the end and can only wait for the intermediary of life in bed.
Zhang Junfeng knew very well how cruel such a tragic ending was for the old man who had been strong all his life. He did not tell anyone else about the old man's illness, but chose to bring his wife and children here to visit the elder from time to time, which could be regarded as fulfilling the other party's regret.
Seeing Zhang Junfeng and others coming to the ward, Song Minyan, who was accompanying Zhang Fushan and chatting, immediately stood up and greeted them, then found a reason very tactfully and left the room, leaving the entire ward to their family, not intending to stay here as a "light bulb".
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Zhang Junfeng looked at Zhang Dongxian who was having fun with Zhang Fushan and Li Fuzhen who was helping to look after them, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.
A few minutes later, Zhang Junfeng said hello to Li Fuzhen and retreated out of the ward. Just as he was planning to go outside to take a look and adjust his mood, he found that Song Minyan was sitting at the stairs and had not left.
Seeing this, Zhang Junfeng smiled and invited the other party to go for a walk on the lawn outside. Song Minyan looked at Zhang Junfeng's sincere smile and agreed as if possessed by a ghost.
…
"San Shang Department Store has been doing well recently, and it seems that you have grown a lot during this period. But you often come here on weekends to take care of the old man, do you still have time to rest?" Zhang Junfeng asked while walking.
"It's okay. I have other people to help me with work, and I don't have to work overtime on weekends. It's a good time for me to come and visit Mr. Zhang...Mr. Zhang." Song Minyan answered guiltily.
"...You are not young anymore, do you have a boyfriend?" Zhang Junfeng frowned and asked.
"......" Song Minyan beside him remained silent and did not answer.
Zhang Junfeng suddenly stopped, turned to look at Song Minyan, and said tentatively, "The old man told me before that he is very grateful for your company over the years and that you regard him as your grandfather. He also hopes that I can take good care of you, his 'sister'. If you need anything, you can contact me at any time. As long as it is within my ability, I can help you achieve it."
Hearing Zhang Junfeng's unexpected words, Song Minyan's eyes flashed with anticipation, but she hesitated for a while before tentatively saying, "... can the promise we made in the park when we were little be fulfilled?"
Zhang Junfeng was a little confused. What kind of airplane was this? He was serious. Why did this girl suddenly bring up the promise she made in the park when she was a child? It had been more than ten or twenty years. How could he still remember what he said when he was a child? "Ahem, most of the things we said when we were young were just fantasy. How can we take them seriously? It doesn't matter if President Song Minyan hasn't made up her mind yet. When you have made up your mind, come to me to fulfill it." Zhang Junfeng coughed lightly and then answered shamelessly.
However, Zhang Junfeng, feeling guilty, did not stay any longer. He quickened his pace, walked around the lawn, and then hurried back to Zhang Fushan's ward.
Song Minyan, who was standing by, was obviously disappointed when she saw Zhang Junfeng's performance. She originally thought that this would be her chance, but it seemed that she had overthought. Zhang Junfeng seemed to be deliberately avoiding the topic! (End of this chapter)
