Charles chuckled, looking at the faint blush on Lu Zhiye's face, and asked familiarly, "Don't you drink this wine often?
I still have a lot, I'll send some more to you later."
Lu Zhiye smiled and thanked him. He didn't want to beat around the bush and asked directly, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Charles didn't expect that Lu Zhiye would be so sharp.
He struggled for a moment, and finally asked his question: "My uncle, you should have met him last time.
We got a large batch of fabric from here and it sold very well over there.
I was just thinking about getting the second batch from here when I turned around and heard someone say that they wanted to invest in a factory in China.
My uncle wanted to set up a factory here.
This can greatly reduce costs. After all, as you know, your country China is short of supplies and the price of labor is ridiculously low.
For us businessmen, it is a very good choice.”
Lu Zhiye felt a little powerless, as he knew very well that this could not be changed for the time being.
He looked at the person pruning branches in the distance with a heavy gaze, and said in a faint voice: "What is your purpose in telling me this?"
Charles reached out and rubbed his trousers, gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and asked directly: "We don't have a clear understanding of China. You have many internal policies that we cannot interfere with.
For example, when it comes to opening factories, I see that most of them are state-owned enterprises.
There are very few private factories, so there are more development opportunities in Shenzhen.
I also spent a lot of money to ask someone to investigate, and heard from that person that some people wanted to set up small private factories, but were suppressed.
So, will we, the foreign investors who come to invest and set up factories, be suppressed?
Don’t end up with nothing left!”
Lu Zhiye understood. He looked at Charles with a half-smile: "How can you be so sure that I will help you?"
A hint of shyness flashed through Charles' heart, and then he said righteously: "My intuition told me."
After living for so many years, Lu Zhiye would not bother with a young man. Besides, the young man had a good attitude. As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person.
His network of contacts has now expanded to Hong Kong businessmen. If there is an injection of foreign capital, those people will have to think twice before making a move against him.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhiye's eyes flickered, and he put his arm around Charles' shoulders like a good brother.
His sudden action scared Charles, who thought Lu Zhiye was going to beat him.
His body was extremely stiff, and only after he was sure that Lu Zhiye had no ill intentions did he relax.
Gradually, I felt a little happy in my heart.
Lu Zhiye pulled him and sat down on a bench nearby.
He clasped his hands together nonchalantly, placed them behind his head, and leaned back slightly: “We should be considered friends now.
As a friend, I can give you a heads up: don't even think about reaching out to the north.
At present, the country is vigorously developing the southern economy and has provided great welfare policies for the introduction of foreign capital.
So you can consider cooperating with local governments.
It is not easy to set up a company on your own, so it is better to choose to sell it to the government.
In this way, when the economy here fully recovers, you can also get very generous returns.
The northern region has not been designated as a special economic zone, and all factories are of a fixed model. It is unlikely that you will be able to set up a factory there."
Charles suddenly realized: “I understand what you said.
But I heard that the prices in your compound are very tight. If we invest a large amount of money in the early stage and don’t get a corresponding response, our capital chain will collapse.
If the capital chain fails to operate, it will have a certain impact on our own operations.
How can this be resolved?"
Lu Zhiye looked at Charles, who was full of anxiety, and sighed deeply: "Not only can you not solve this problem, even we can't solve it.
Otherwise, you should not choose to invest at this juncture.
Otherwise, be prepared to lose everything you have invested.”
Charles widened his eyes, opened his mouth slightly, and looked at Lu Zhiye in disbelief: "Didn't you say that we can choose to cooperate with the government first?
Why are you saying this now?"
Lu Zhiye shrugged: "Even if it is a 100% stable investment, there is a possibility of failure.
I want you to prepare for the worst case scenario, invest a portion of the liquid funds you have, and use the rest for the operation of your own company.
This will definitely not cause any major problems. If you are thinking of investing a lot of money at this critical juncture to gain a say, then my only advice is to be careful."
Are you kidding? China's leaders are not fools. If most of the factories are occupied by foreign-funded enterprises.
If we allow them to become the economic leaders, then China will really be led by foreigners.
Therefore, a small number of foreign-funded enterprises can be introduced into the compound, but they will never be allowed to invest in factories on a large scale.
What they need is to borrow external forces to support their own family members.
It's like a part in a factory that can only be imported from abroad.
At the critical juncture, the foreign factory insisted on raising the price and refused to ship the goods unless the price was increased.
This firmly seizes China's weakness, and this situation will only exist when the country is weak.
After becoming a strong country, we must become the leader of the world.
Charles has been with his uncle since he was a child, so he has some understanding of business matters.
He looked at Lu Zhiye with great gratitude: "Lu, thank you so much for reminding me."
A hint of fear flashed through his mind. This time when they came to China, they had gambled most of their family's wealth.
Many people are aiming to seize the main economic lifeline.
For example, the foreigners sitting in the room.
They all want to hold the entire country hostage through the economy.
This kind of thing has happened in other countries.
There is a kind of people who are born good at doing business. After other countries kindly took in this race, they quickly grasped the economic lifeline of the entire country with their clever minds.
At a critical moment, the main economic artery was cut off, causing turmoil there.
This incident shocked many countries.
In order to prevent this situation from happening, all countries have tried their best to exclude this race.
China's leaders are not fools. In order to prevent such things from happening, they will only use these foreign capitals and will not let them truly become the vanguard of the economy.
Lu Zhiye spent a long time looking at this matter in his previous life before he finally understood it.
This also applies to Hong Kong businessmen. Before the Hong Kong market was returned, the compound was also wary of them.
