Is Chapter 855's evaluation too high?
"The scenery is beautiful, but unfortunately the glory remains and there is not enough progress."
Holding the railing with one hand and feeling the sea breeze, Zhou Anan answered the other party with equally profound words.
He certainly didn't think that the second young master of the Lian Group would ask a superficial question like the scenery. If he understood it more deeply, he could easily associate it with the economic situation of the port city.
Today’s Hong Kong city may be experiencing its last glory, both in terms of economy and entertainment.
In terms of economy, there are basically only two or three leading local enterprises. In the future, it will be the star private enterprises from the mainland that will come to Hong Kong to list, call the shots, and scoop up large amounts of funds.
In terms of entertainment, the 2002 movie “Infernal Affairs” has become the swan song for local stars in Hong Kong. After that, any movie with a box office of over 100 million yuan has mainland investors and artists.
Zhou Anan is not bragging, any movie their company is currently producing can beat local Hong Kong movies.
As for the outstanding co-production films between the two places in the next few years, he also took over two series with decent reputation and box office, one is "Cold War" and the other is "Wired".
Zhou Anan was not interested in and could not get the "God of Gamblers" series, another film with good box office but poor reputation.
"Yes, Hong Kong is indeed too small, but some people's hearts are not small. I heard that the Li family is preparing to expand abroad in a big way and has already received support from some high-level officials in European and American countries."
After a pause, Lian Xiongdong looked at the young man holding a water cup in one hand next to him with no change in expression, and continued to speak out the key points: "In addition, the Li family is also in contact with Jiulang, preparing to acquire shares in Jiulang and focus on overseas micro-customer projects. Some European and American countries have begun to consider the entry threshold of Jiulang's micro-customer projects."
“.”
After hearing the news, Zhou Anan, who had been somewhat indifferent, could no longer remain calm.
Although there is already a similar micro-customer project Twitter in North America, which has been operating since 2006, it now has no less than 10 million users.
However, in terms of functions, Mingliu Weike, planned by the "prophet" Zhou Anan, is a latecomer and will have a place even if it enters Europe and the United States.
If the old Langweike, which has already declined in China and given up resistance, were to find another way to enter Europe and the United States ahead of time, it would bring extremely serious obstacles to the international expansion of Mingliu Weike and even affect its basic base in China.
After all, for some domestic netizens, internationalization is the coolest.
The Li family mentioned by Lian Ershao is naturally not the Li family that founded Infinite Entertainment, but the undisputed first family in Hong Kong and a billionaire in the eyes of outsiders - the Li family of the richest man.
If this is true, then he really needs to consider the suggestions previously made by Hard Silver and Qiandu and accelerate the internationalization of Mingliu Micro-Customer.
But that means the rapid burning of huge amounts of money.
Now in China, relying on the profits of China's leading games, Mingliu Group's cash flow has achieved a virtuous cycle.
Once the global expansion mode is launched, the more than one billion Chinese yuan in the Mingliu Group's account will be less than 300 million US dollars, which is not enough to burn through in a few months.
"If Brother Zhou is interested in letting Mingliu Weike enter the European and American markets, perhaps our Lian Group can help. Whether it is capital or connections, our Lian Group is not much worse than the Li family. In the European and African markets, our Lian Group has more connections than the Li family."
Seeing the young man who had remained calm tonight change his expression, Lian Xiongdong actually felt inexplicably relieved.
At least, the other party also has things to consider, which is the basis for cooperation between the two parties.
Yes, he hosted a banquet for them tonight not for the sake of the so-called Hong Kong elites’ face, but to take advantage of the expansion of Mingliu Micro-Customer and contribute to the business expansion of Lian’s Group.
Today, several major families in Hong Kong have already felt their own limitations and have been looking for channels to expand outward.
The Li family, which ranked first, chose to cooperate with European and American politicians, intervene in important industries in Europe and the United States, and has already had good prospects.
If the Lian family does not catch up, they may really become the old wave that is beaten to death by the new wave.
At their level, if they don’t make progress, they will regress, or even die.
If you are eliminated by the times, no matter how much wealth you have, it will be like flowers in the mirror or the moon in the water. Only by keeping up with the times can you prosper forever.
"I still believe in Lian's strength. However, regarding cooperation matters, I need to seek the opinions of the group's senior management and the suggestions of other shareholders."
Seeing that the other party recommended himself, Zhou Anan affirmed the other party's strength, but also answered perfunctorily.
In a rich list in March this year, the Li family ranked first in Hong Kong and Asia with assets of more than 170 billion yuan.
The Lian Group, which ranks second in Hong Kong, also ranks among the top three in Asia with assets exceeding 130 billion yuan.
Both of them are tycoons with assets worth hundreds of billions, and the difference between them is not that big. The Lian Group even has advantages in some aspects.
However, when it comes to the expansion and financing of Mingliu Group, Zhou Anan cannot make the decision alone. She must find the most suitable financing target and enter the international market at the lowest cost.
His understanding of the Lian Group is only superficial, and whether they can cooperate still requires the opinions of professionals.
When it comes to the group's business, Zhou Anan never thinks that she has the ability to make decisions alone, especially when it comes to working with others.
"Of course, I look forward to working with Brother Zhou."
Lian Xiongdong was not surprised at all when he heard what the other party said.
This involves billions of dollars in financing, and he certainly doesn't think that he can make the other party choose him just by having a dinner.
As long as the Lian family can leave a good impression on the other controlling shareholder, they can contact the other shareholders of Mingliu Group, gain more goodwill, and occupy the most advantageous position in the new financing plan of Mingliu Group.
The Lian Group has been coveting the Internet, a tempting yet frightening piece of fat meat, for a long time, and they certainly cannot miss this great opportunity.
“I’m looking forward to it, too.”
It was natural to say some polite words, and Zhou Anan did not give the other party a definite answer, which reserved the possibility of future cooperation between the two parties.
When Lian Ershao was talking about the interesting stories of Hong Kong's elite, Zhou Anan's eyes occasionally fell on the blue swimming pool below, and she sighed at the charm of the girl who was once the most beautiful woman in Hong Kong.
In comparison, Teacher Jiang, who can only be considered above average, is not very impressive.
"Mi Ning, you are not Mr. Zhou's official girlfriend yet, right?"
After swimming for a while, Luo Xin leaned against the pool to rest, drank the juice handed to her by the servant, and asked the new little girl next to her with a smile.
Women's friendship is sometimes so strange. Perhaps because she used to be an elementary school dance teacher, Luo Xin got along very well with this naive and cute little girl.
"Sister Xin, how did you figure that out?"
Jiang Mi Ning spit out the straw and asked back somewhat embarrassedly, her thoughts exposed.
She thought she hadn't revealed anything, but the other party still found out.
As expected of her, she was once the most beautiful woman in Hong Kong and is now the young lady of a wealthy family. In terms of vision, she feels inferior to her.
However, she felt a little awkward in this situation.
"I'm an experienced person, you should still be a girl, right?!!!"
Gently grabbing the other person's inferior part, Luo Xin whispered the other person's secret.
"Ah, Sister Xin, how could you do this?"
After being attacked by the other party, her face, which was already red from drinking red wine, became even redder. Jiang Mi Ning turned around in shame.
"Haha, that's true."
Luo Xin noticed that the other party was shy and cleverly defused the awkward atmosphere with a joke.
"Sister Xin, are you guessing?"
"Of course. However, from the frequency of Mr. Zhou's gaze, it is easy for an outsider like me to guess. If you were an official boyfriend and girlfriend, you would definitely not stare at me so frequently."
"Sister Xin, isn't it possible that he is looking at you, the most beautiful woman in Hong Kong?"
".Are you so unconfident?"
"certainly."
The night breeze was blowing. After getting off the yacht, Zhou Anan and her partner got into the Mercedes-Benz and drove straight towards Pengcheng.
Zhou Anan was very serious about finding this elementary school teacher as her female companion and had absolutely no extra thoughts.
Tonight's meeting was quite successful.
"Dong, you think highly of this Mr. Zhou."
Back at the villa on the top of Victoria Peak, Luo Xin, who had changed into pajamas, put her arm around her husband's neck and asked with a smile.
She had never seen her husband, who was so talented and looked down upon the Hong Kong elite, attach so much importance to a young man that he not only arranged a yacht but also specially transferred a Western chef from abroad.
"Of course. What do you think of the other party?"
Lian Xiongdong asked casually, holding his wife's smooth nightgown around her slender waist.
"At his age, he's a little too calm."
"Do you think he is calm? I think he is very reserved and people dare not look directly at him."
"Are you thinking too highly of him?"
Subconsciously letting go of her husband's neck, Luo Xin sat in front of him and asked in surprise.
Her husband, who has been at the top of Hong Kong's elite for many years, has never commented on a young person like this, let alone a 20-year-old young man from the mainland.
Are there such huge differences between her and her husband’s perspectives?
"If I say that the Mingliu Group, which was founded by the other party less than two years ago, will become a unicorn worth hundreds of billions in the future, do you still think my evaluation is high?"
Looking at the view revealed by his wife's loose nightgown, Lian's brother raised her fair chin with a finger and admired her pretty face, which was the most beautiful in Hong Kong and he never got tired of looking at it.
"100 billion?"
After hearing what her husband said, Luo Xin opened her mouth in surprise, but before she could react, she was pushed down by her excited husband.
"Mr. Zhou, would you like to go up and sit for a while?"
The Mercedes-Benz stopped at the gate of her community. Jiang Mi Ning was silent for two seconds, and finally spoke out the idea that had been brewing all the way, with an undisguised nervousness on her face: "My parents have gone back to their hometown, and there is no one upstairs."
