Chapter 369 Strides into the 1970s
Dai Linzi also knew that Li Wen was pro-Chinese, but because Li Wen would come and send many gifts, he was not angry.
But Dai Linzi said that the Queen of the Sunset Kingdom already knew about the great contribution Daqin Medical had made in the plague and wanted to honor Li Wen.
Li Wen knew that he might not be able to escape now, but he still came up with an idea.
"Mr. Governor of Hong Kong, you also know that my family members are all in the mainland and I cannot go to Sunset Country in person to receive the knighthood from Her Majesty the Queen.
In this case, I am willing to donate five million pounds. Please help Mr. Hong Kong Governor to ask for a favor to receive the medal on my behalf!" Li Wen said with an embarrassed look on his face.
After Li Wen finished speaking, he handed Dai Linzi another huge ruby.
"Li, I can understand your difficulties, and I will tell the truth to the Queen. I believe the Queen will understand your difficulties.
By the way, the Hong Kong Governor's Office will report a charity auction in a few days, and I hope you can participate, Li." Dai Linzi said with a smile while playing with the ruby in his hand.
Li Wen also understood that the meaning of this kind of charity auction was nothing more than to let rich people pay for fame instead of helping the poor.
After all, the money was spent on his compatriots, so Li Wen did not object to this kind of activity and agreed with a smile.
After leaving the Hong Kong Governor's Office, Li Wen felt like there were ten thousand mothers in his heart that he wanted to shout out.
"Five million pounds! One hundred million Hong Kong dollars is just gone. I hope your queen will take this money to her grave." Li Wen cursed in his heart.
After sending away the difficult ghost guy, Li Wen took a car to China Resources.
Today, Li Wen, the newly appointed president of Hua Xin News Agency, Mr. Zhou, and Mr. Qian of China Resources, made an appointment to meet at China Resources Company.
Li Wen originally planned to go to Huaxin News Agency, but President Zhou refused because of the bad influence, so he transferred to China Resources.
As the Chinese liaison representative stationed in Hong Kong, China News Service has great power, but its identity is also very sensitive.
Most of the things that Li Wen asked the state for help in recent years were said to be entrusted to China Resources. In fact, China Resources was just a communication channel between Li Wen and the China News Agency. In the end, these matters were all solved by the China News Agency.
After getting off the car at the parking lot of China Resources Company, Li Wen and his assistant A Le walked in front with a red trolley suitcase, surrounded by more than a dozen bodyguards who spread their guard.
Walking into China Resources Company, Li Wen only took A Le and the suitcase upstairs. The bodyguards were waiting below. Safety issues in China Resources were guaranteed.
Because of the plague last year, Li Wen didn't send anything home. This year is about to end the year. When Li Wen came to China Resources this time, he also brought over the New Year's goods and letters he sent home.
What Li Wen sent home this time was the company's newly designed trolley case, which Li Wen had already applied for a patent for.
The company will promote it in the next year. Li Wen believes that the trolley case will explode the market and become a new fashion trend.
Li and Wen walked into Mr. Qian's office under the guidance of their assistant, and saw a middle-aged man in his forties drinking tea with Mr. Qian. Li Wen estimated that this was the new president of Huaxin News Agency.
"Xiao Li, you are a rare visitor! Hurry up and sit down." Mr. Qian waved when he saw Li Wen standing up.
Li Wen nodded with a smile and came to the tea table.
"Mr. Qian, there's no need to be polite to me. This is President Zhou, right?" Li Wen smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with President Zhou who had already stood up.
"It's better to hear once than to see once. Comrade Li is really young and promising!" President Zhou was also shocked by Li Wen's youth.
Li Wen just smiled shyly and did not answer.
After some introductions, several people began to sit down to drink tea and discuss current affairs.
Li Wen also took the opportunity to tell President Zhou that the Queen of the Sunset Kingdom wanted to confer a title on him, but he had no choice but to donate money and let the Hong Kong Governor distribute it privately.
President Zhou and Mr. Qian were also very satisfied and appreciated Li Wen's approach, and they expressed their understanding one after another.
"Comrade Li, after all, Xiang Island is still under the management of the Sunset Kingdom. On behalf of the country, I understand your difficulties and hope you won't feel any psychological burden." President Zhou gave Li Wen reassurance.
Li Wen got President Zhou's reply and felt relieved. After all, his family was still living in China and he didn't want to have any impact on his family.
"President Zhou, now my business has started up and I have made some money in the past few years.
The country is currently in a difficult period, and the purpose of my visit today is to make a private donation to the country," Li Wen said.
After Li Wen finished speaking, he took out an unnamed check from his pocket, which was for US$100 million.
President Zhou looked at the check handed over by Li Wen, looked at the numbers and saw a string of zeros. After counting, he was stunned to see that there were 100 million or US dollars.
Seeing President Zhou's expression, Mr. Qian quickly looked at the check and shouted out in surprise. "Xiao Li, are you taking out all this year's profits? Your company is not open."
Li Wen looked at the expressions of the two people and shook his head with a smile: "Mr. Qian, thanks to the dividends from the plague, the company's profit this year is three times that, so donating this money to the country is nothing."
"Ah! Two billion?" Mr. Qian and Director Zhou were shocked.
The four influential branches of Daqin Group have now been completely stabilized.
Because of the plague, Daqin Medical Company has made a lot of money from last year to this year. Last year's revenue was close to 2 billion Hong Kong dollars, and this year's net profit is as high as 1.8 billion.
Li Wen had to lament that it was easy to earn money for medical treatment! There was no bargaining involved.
Daqin Media Group's print media business has extended to the entire Eurasian region.
Film and television companies are also operating steadily. The newly built film and television city tourism project has made Daqin Film and Television a lot of money.
Li Wen’s goal in the next few years is to acquire radio and television stations and create a closed media loop.
Although Daqin Real Estate is not well-known, it has many assets and its annual rent collection is a large amount of income.
In addition, we have accumulated a lot of experience in building film and television city projects with the four major families, and now we are building two large communities.
By the end of the year, Daqin Security's personnel had expanded to 20,000. The expansion rate was extremely fast. There was no way, there were too many places under the Daqin Group that needed security. This was not enough, and there were still many allocated to please some.
Li Wen's Society.
Of course, there are many small companies under the Daqin Group, but they are all relatively small and cannot be compared with these direct companies.
Finally, Li Wen did some calculations and found that the total revenue of Daqin Group this year reached an astonishing 2.6 billion. Even Li Wen was stunned by such an astonishing revenue.
Because Daqin Group was not listed and had no one to answer to, Li Wen asked his companies to significantly conceal their income, only reporting 800 million.
But just this 800 million income has already ranked among the top ten in Hong Kong.
After finishing his work at Daqin Group, Li Wen went to Blue Star Group with a special mask to check accounts and hold meetings. It can be said that he was very busy.
Blue Star Group is now a veritable business giant in Hong Kong. In addition to Hong Kong, the business of its companies has extended to Nanyang and white areas.
