Chapter 443 Lafite Chateau
Li Zhongxin felt that the chat between him and Davitt was quite good. Although they did not discuss anything substantive, both parties could feel that the other party had the possibility of further cooperation.
Many things are not suitable for detailed discussion in such a situation, and Li Zhongxin's visit to Paris this time was mainly to reach an agreement with Jimino on the automobile production base.
Although the contract has been signed, Li Zhongxin still needs to confirm with the Chinese government again after returning to China. Whether it is land matters, power supply and other supporting matters, they all need to be confirmed and communicated.
Regarding other cooperation, Davitt feels that it is necessary to wait and see first. After the first investment project is implemented, it will not be too late to discuss other cooperation.
In terms of funds, Li Zhongxin's financial problems are greatly guaranteed. After a single European Cup betting, the 50 million US dollars that Li Zhongxin took out has turned into a terrifying figure of close to 350 million US dollars. Such a huge amount.
Even some of the world's largest companies or oligarchs cannot come up with a sum of money, let alone $50 million for gambling.
From this perspective, Li Zhongxin not only has huge funds, but also huge assets.
The capital guarantee plan promised by Li Zhongxin did not use the funds of the European Cup Football Lottery, but signed a plan for land pledge in Tokyo. In other words, if the interests of the Rothschild family in China cannot be guaranteed,
You can use Li Zhongxin's land in Tokyo as a mortgage.
Some of the procedures for this kind of land pledge still require Jemino to go to Tokyo to sign a series of documents after a period of time. Only after the contract documents are obtained can the real deal be settled.
The Rothschild family had already confirmed the land that Li Zhongxin had taken out during the negotiations. These lands are now maintaining a good upward trend in Tokyo, and several of them have already made money in Tokyo.
When doubled, more will be needed.
During the negotiation process, Li Zhongxin proposed two plans. One was to use the land in Tokyo as collateral to protect the rights and interests of the Rothschild family.
The other is to use a form of stock pledge to protect the rights and interests of the Rothschild family. Li Zhongxin said frankly that if the Chinese government does not seize or forcibly seize the funds of the Rothschild family in accordance with the foreign investment law,
If it is confiscated, then the things securing the mortgage will be given to the Rothschild family in accordance with the contract.
For things like stocks, the Rothschild family feels that the risks of pledging them are too high.
The several stocks that Li Zhongxin proposed that can be pledged have increased too much at this time and are prone to a sharp decline in net worth. Using this as a guarantee of rights and interests is absolutely not guaranteed by real estate pledges.
As the owner of these assets, Li Zhongxin's exposed net worth has reached a level that makes Davitt unbelievable. It also illustrates one thing. Li Zhongxin is just like the Rothschild family.
In terms of asset operation, it has a very advanced meaning. Even Davitt thought of another possibility. In China, Li Zhongxin is the spokesperson of the country or a large group.
Because of matters related to real estate and stocks, Davitt chatted with Li Zhongxin about some investment opinions. After getting an answer he was satisfied with, he turned the topic directly to China's joint venture law.
The Rothschild family has to conduct a series of studies on the policies issued by the governments of various countries. Although the joint venture bill introduced by China at this time looks very good, this joint venture law has not yet entered the real implementation stage.
, there are too many supplementary clauses, and in the eyes of high-end investors like them, there are still many loopholes.
In terms of ensuring the safety of capital and assets, the Chinese government's joint venture law does not show enough sincerity. I don't know whether it is because China has been in a closed process for too long, or for other reasons. In short! This joint venture law is really important to those of them.
In the eyes of investment giants, the interests of foreign capital cannot be completely guaranteed.
Li Zhongxin was very happy for Davitt's cautious and optimistic attitude. After all, the disaster brought by the Soviet Union, a socialist country, to the Rothschild family was quite huge.
No matter what kind of big family you are, you need to have a reservation about your capital investment.
Now that Rothschild dares to invest a lot of money in China, it is mainly because he has made a commitment to guarantee funds for them in Tokyo, Japan, but! This is definitely a good start.
As long as the Rothschild family begins to intervene in China's large market, many strategic investors will enter China in the future.
Li Zhongxin is different from Davitt and most big foreign capitalists. He knows very well that the foreign investment law promulgated by China has quite adequate protection for foreign investment in China. Since the promulgation of the foreign investment law, Li Zhongxin has not done anything
Any breach of contract.
During this period of time, China really needs foreign investment and foreign technology to develop the country. The ten years of stagnation that China has experienced have been the ten years of rapid development in the world. If we do not use joint venture laws to introduce foreign investment and introduce advanced technologies from developed countries,
Technology, then China will not be able to develop it no matter what.
The more Davitt and Li Zhongxin chatted, the more they felt speculative, and even had a feeling that they had met too late, from investment philosophy, China's foreign investment law, and precautions when investing in China, as well as various current issues in China.
After talking about the situation in turn, he became more and more satisfied with Jemino's partner. He felt that it was time for Jemino to increase his investment in Li Zhongxin.
Everyone ended the dinner in a very friendly atmosphere. Near the end of the dinner, Jemino proposed that during the next day, he invited Li Zhongxin to visit Chateau Lafite. As a partner, Jemino
Prepare to give Li Zhongxin some high-quality red wine as a gift.
Early the next morning, Jimino led two cars to the hotel where Li Zhongxin was staying, picked up Li Zhongxin and went straight to Chateau Lafite.
Chateau Lafite is located on a gravel hill north of the village of Boyle in the Pauillac district of Bordeaux, France. It has unique climate and soil conditions. It covers an area of 178 hectares (of which the vineyard area covers 103 hectares), making it one of the largest wineries in the world.
It ranks among the top first-class wineries and is larger than most second- and third-class wineries.
Along the way, Jimino began to talk endlessly about the history of Chateau Lafite to Li Zhongxin.
The name "Lafite" of Chateau Lafite comes from the medieval southern French dialect "la hite", which means "little hill".
Chateau Lafite was founded in 1354 by a nobleman named Lafite, and it was already quite famous in the 14th century. In 1675, it was purchased by Duke Xigang, the world's number one figure in the wine industry at that time.
Xigang was a powerful figure in the wine industry at that time. He also owned the top historical Chateau Latour, Wudang King and Chiron Family.
French King Louis XIV once said that the Chigon family may be the richest family in France. In the seventeenth century, France was basically dominated by Burgundy wine. However, Bombardier, the mistress of French King Louis XV, a famous "social butterfly" in the upper class at that time, was very fond of Burgundy wine.
Lafite has a special liking for it, making Lafite often the favorite of the nobles in the Palace of Versailles.
After the death of the third generation head of the Xigang family in 1755, the property rights of Lafite entered a relatively chaotic historical period. However, the quality of Lafite wine still did not disappoint. Until 1868, Sir James Rothschild
It was purchased at a public auction for a whopping price of 4.4 million francs.
Today, Chateau Lafite has become one of the famous representatives of red wine in France..."
Jemino is in charge of Chateau Lafite. He knows the history of Chateau Lafite and the situation of Chateau Lafite very well. When an insider introduces it, he will naturally explain it clearly.
Li Zhongxin was not very clear about the history of Chateau Lafite, but he was quite interested in what Jemino told him, because Li Zhongxin knew very well that in later generations, how much did Lafite wine sell in China?
