Li Jiacheng had to be afraid.

Because he knew very well that if Neon could go through such a decade, Zhou Country, which was in a similar situation to Neon, would definitely make the same mistake again.

Compared with the mainland of Xia, which has not really developed yet and is more stable, how delicious is the fresh flesh and blood of Zhou Kingdom?

In addition, a chain of constraints will be formed on the economic level on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean.

Why did Xia Guo elevate Pengcheng's status so high? Because Xiang Island is already a world-class financial and trading port.

Now, just through the competition on Xiang Island, it is possible to drag down Xia Kingdom, which has just set off.

No wonder the negotiations on the WTO went so smoothly. The rule makers used the tension created previously as a bargaining chip. Is this replaying the old story of Hong Kong and Soviet Union?

The most important thing is that the old man is getting older.

At this time, Li Jiacheng discovered his most fatal weakness compared with Tao Zhiming: the Li family was based in Xiangdao, but Tao Zhiming had already taken advantage of the crisis Neon faced in the last round to rise up, and now has a wider layout.

He can really afford the loss on Xiangdao's side, as long as he can get more benefits from Zhou Guo and Neon's future.

No wonder they took Li Ju to listen to their plan and told themselves so clearly.

Li Jiacheng quickly arranged several things, not only asking Li Ju to go to Neon to get in touch with the Iwasaki family to strengthen his backing, but also made a decision to sell Orange, the third largest telecommunications company in the country, to reserve cash, and then went to

After laying out the strategy for the next few years of Xiangdao industry, he went to Neon.

He had to interview Tao Zhiming.

"...Tao Sheng, you made such a big deal in Xiangdao, and you want to invest so much money, do you really want to burn that fire to Xiangdao?" Li Jiacheng stopped beating around the bush this time and asked straightforwardly.

Tao Zhiming met him on a yacht, sitting under an umbrella and enjoying the leisurely sea breeze.

Seeing that he arrived so quickly and that the news of his sale of Orange had already been revealed, Tao Zhiming was in a good mood now.

Why did Tao Yaren and others initially express their support for Tao Zhiming's interest in acquiring more Xiang Islands, but instead he helped the Li family grow bigger over the years?

Although there is consideration for raising pigs, Li Jiacheng's own abilities must also be taken into consideration.

In Tao Zhiming's memory, this was the guy who raised a lot of cash by selling Orange and other actions, and finally was able to buy the bottom after the crisis and his wealth skyrocketed.

Neon was able to achieve this by leveraging its own strength because it allowed Mitsui and Sumitomo to board its own ship through operations from the very beginning.

But for the matter on Xiangdao, Tao Zhiming didn't want to drag Mitsui and Sumitomo to share the spoils.

He needs to be able to have enough independent say in the future of Hong Kong Island.

But if you want to single-handedly win over the Li family's base, you have to adopt a different strategy.

If a person has limited knowledge and makes decisions solely based on analysis and judgment, he may be able to bet on the general trend. Many powerful bosses have this ability.

But if a person knows too many details, he will have some unnecessary delusions.

Originally I just wanted to protect my capital, but now I want to make a lot of money. This is human nature.

Now Tao Zhiming is qualified to become one of the "directors" of this drama. He has spent several years creating a situation where he and the Li family cooperate fully, and with the help of "saving his son", the Li family's achievements are only

I will be wary of him and hope to get more from him.

Li Jiacheng's question seemed a bit like a cross-examination, and Tao Zhiming answered calmly: "There is no question of whether it was deliberately burned to Xiangdao. Li Sheng was in Xiangdao. Didn't he hear that several other companies were pessimistic and were already doing something?

Are you ready to transfer? I will never miss this competition."

"But you have been operating in Xiangdao for so long." Li Jiacheng thought about his plan for Lamma Island, paused and asked, "Don't you just plan to become a decisive force in Xiangdao, and you can exert restraint in the future?

and the power of influence?”

Tao Zhiming replied lightly: "Young Master Ju has already told you everything, right? Then Li Sheng should also know that it would be better if they could have greater results. If they are determined to defend, they will definitely spend a lot of money this time.

Let’s take a look at the foreign exchange reserves of Hong Kong and Xia, so that they will have to rely more on foreign trade in the future. In any case, the loss is only temporary.”

Li Jiacheng's eyes were very cold: "Tao Sheng, the Li family's foundation is in Xiang Island, we can't afford to lose it!"

Tao Zhiming turned to look at him, took off his sunglasses and said with a smile: "With the market that Neon has developed in recent years, and the layout that Li Sheng has made overseas, the Li family's situation should be the best, right?

Aren’t you ready to sell Orange? A very good decision!”

He meant what he said.

Orange seems to have become the third communications company in the country with great momentum, and it has just been listed this year. It is a promising time. But going from third to second, to first, is very difficult in the middle.

On the contrary, now there is a rumor that it can be sold. If the number one eats it, their status will be as stable as Mount Tai; if the number two eats it, they can overthrow the boss.

Wait for the price to sell, when the best price is available.

In Tao Zhiming's memory, Li Jiacheng did not officially complete the transaction until three years later, making a profit of more than 100 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Now, Tao Zhiming has helped the Li family grow stronger, the stalls are bigger, and more information has been told to him. Li Jiacheng is likely to take action in a hurry to deal with the obvious big crisis.

Then the profit won't be that much, but a bigger stall will have to be protected.

This is where Tao Zhiming's real opportunity lies.

Li Jiacheng looked at Tao Zhiming and said after a long time: "Tao Sheng, if the Li family doesn't have a safe way to deal with it, this matter will lead to a capital chain crisis. We have cooperated in many projects. If I can't support

If we go down, we will have to sell some assets."

Tao Zhiming's eyes widened: "You suspect that I am plotting against the Li family? Then what am I doing with Young Master Ju?"

"..." Li Jiacheng was speechless. He sighed and softened his tone a lot, "According to your plan, what will Xiangdao collapse into first? Tao Sheng, you grew up in Neon, maybe you have a deep understanding of Xia Guo

I don’t know much about their ideas and practices. I have a different view than theirs. I think that the prospects of Xiangdao are broader, so I have not widely diversified investment. Instead, I am increasing investment in Xiangdao’s foundation.”

"No conflict!" Tao Zhiming said decisively, "I said, the loss is only temporary. No matter what, after this battle, we will have a greater say in Xiangdao. Li Sheng has such a layout now, which shows that he has a vicious vision.

.”

"... Then we need to be able to survive this storm first!" Li Jiacheng now has mixed feelings about his investment in Neon.

If he hadn't entered Neon, he wouldn't have to face a bigger plate, but he wouldn't be able to know so many details now.

But now this situation really demands his feelings.

For the same reason, he pretended not to care about the temporary gains and losses in Xiang Island. That was because he had sufficient return expectations elsewhere! He could also reap long-term returns in Xiang Island!

But the Li family is different. The Li family's main industries are all listed on Hong Kong Island.

If Hong Kong's financial market and real estate market were to repeat what Neon was like a few years ago, how could the Li family survive?

Li Jiacheng now has no doubt that Tao Zhiming has completely taken the opposite position in the Xia mainland. This is undoubtedly a direct stab at wanting to bleed.

Tao Zhiming smiled with a calm expression: "What do you mean by surviving this storm? As for that? Now that we already know how things will probably turn out, with Li Sheng's ability, can't we still make huge profits from it? With good intentions, I went to listen, but Li Sheng doubted me, which is really chilling."

Li Jiacheng had a headache: "I didn't mean that..."

"What does that mean?" Tao Zhiming narrowed his eyes, "One thing is for sure, this would have happened without me, what do you think?"

"...Having said that..."

"Then it's over!" Tao Zhiming said without changing his expression, "Whether it is to follow the short selling in other markets first, and then simply secretly join the ranks of short selling Hong Kong currency and Hong Kong stock market, or to withdraw from some marginal stocks like now. Li Sheng has a lot of choices to save money for the winter, but there is no need to doubt me and accuse me."

If ordinary people choked him like this, Li Jiacheng would probably have a bad face.

But what is Tao Zhiming’s status and strength?

Li Jiacheng was confused and said: "My foundation is in Xiangdao. How can I make a profit by shorting Xiangdao and then buy the bottom?"

Tao Zhiming's expression did not change, and he sneered in his heart: It's like you have never done anything before, just like doing good deeds and accumulating virtue throughout your life.

"Then what does Li Sheng have in mind when he came to me this time?"

When the question got to the point, Li Jiacheng's heart became even more confused. He gritted his teeth and said: "It's not possible to short Xiangdao, but I hope some of the money from selling Orange can be added to your capital pool!"

Tao Zhiming shook his head: "Since you already have concerns about me, there is no need to do this. Of course, Li Sheng can go find Mr. Yaren."

In a word, I won't take you with me this time.

Li Jiacheng actually has another option, to do the business himself.

But he is really afraid now. Whether he will make a profit or a loss will completely depend on the change of the situation. One minute or even one second changes. The power gathered by these people is so powerful. If the rhythm cannot keep up, it may be doomed.

There seems to be something wrong with today's words. Speaking of which, does Tao Zhiming really not want to cooperate with the Li family on this matter, or is he asking for conditions?

Of course it's okay to go to Tao Yaren, but how much bargaining leverage does the Li family have? Maybe they just give him a basic return, just like lending them a sum of money.

"...Tao Sheng, don't you use this as a reason? I really don't care about you."

"Come on, they also said that we are doing many projects together. If you can't support it by then, you will have to sell your assets, which makes me want to acquire some of your shares." Tao Zhiming stood up and went to the side of the ship to blow in the sea breeze. , "I'm so full from the food in Neon that I can't even digest it."

Li Jiacheng was in a dilemma. Those words had to be said. After all, he had to test some real attitudes. What Li Ju couldn't see, he, Li Jiacheng, might be able to see.

As a result, Tao Zhiming took advantage of this point.

"Let's do this!" Li Jiacheng also followed, "If you want to use Tianle as a breakthrough, I am willing to spend a sum of money to help you. You should bring me with you for your financial operations!"

Tao Zhiming chuckled: "I said if we don't cooperate this time, we will cooperate. Li Sheng, at this sensitive juncture, I don't want everyone to be nervous and guarding against each other. Let Mr. Ju know the full story of our plan, just as a matter of fact.

My kindness to the Li family is over. The next turmoil

, how to deal with the Li family, anyway, you already know the risks and opportunities. Trust is cultivated little by little. Finally, the relationship between the two families is now established, but there is no need to destroy it. I would rather you earn it again, and then

Say to me, 'Tao Sheng is righteous'."

Li Jiacheng's mood fluctuated like the water under the boat.

Why is it that after talking about it to this extent, you are still unwilling to advance and retreat together on many things as before?
