Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing visited several islands in the Bentley Island territory. On the morning of the third day after arriving at Bentley Island, which was July 12, they called for a high-level meeting on Bentley Island.
Currently, Zhang Ziyu is personally responsible for the market value of Bentley Island. The three chiefs of the Department of Administration, Finance, and Justice only took office last year. He was previously the executive vice president of the Lee Group or the executive deputy director of the headquarters.
Now within the Lee Group, the president and vice president will not move. The chief financial officer, general manager of the administration department, director of the legal department, director of the review department, director of the confidentiality department, director of the security department, etc., will be replaced every few years.
Ensure that major groups do not have a nest of snakes and rats, avoid large-scale financial corruption situations, and prevent a group from having only one voice.
The same is true for Bentley Island. Although it is a government, it is still controlled by the Lee Consortium.
Bentley Island Territory stipulates that the person in charge of the government does not need to be elected. Everything is appointed by the Governor. This was decided before Bentley Island was naturalized. If you disagree, you will not be able to naturalize Bentley Island. If you do this in the future, you will only be able to cause trouble.
, directly cancel his Bentley Island household registration.
Currently, 80% of the people who have settled in Bentley Island are employees of the Lee Consortium and its allies and their families. After all, most people are not willing to accept Bentley Island's regulations.
Li Guangyu never thought about absorbing a large number of people to Bentley Island. It can't handle too many people here. It's enough to have his own employees.
Compared with attracting people to stay on Bentley Island to promote the development of Bentley Island, maintaining the authority of the Li family and the Li family consortium here is more important.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble for the Li Family Group in the future, Zhang Ziyu did not even let his nephew inherit the title, but chose Li Songyi in order to avoid problems in the future due to some reasons.
At the meeting, Li Guangyu said: "Ziyu, the land reclamation can come to an end for the time being. The current area is enough to meet the development of Bentley Island Territory for several decades. Now our focus is to develop tourism and trade.
Therefore, these are the two pillar industries for the future development of our Bentley Island.
In addition, I agree with your proposal to build another university. This university will be named after you, called Purple Rain University. The main source of students is from the mainland. We will increase cooperation with the mainland in this regard."
Zhang Ziyu was very happy after listening to Li Guangyu's words. In the Li Group, it is rare to name a company or a school after a senior executive.
Up to now, the charity foundation has three people: Cao Weiqing, Wu Wen, and Li Xuemei. Cao Weiqing is Mrs. Li Guangyu and represents the Li family.
The other two people have made great contributions to the Li family. Wu Wen has served the Li family all his life. Li Xuemei is the first CEO of the Li Group and has made great contributions to the rise of the Li Group.
As for the group, only Li Xuelan enjoys the honor. Xuelan Supermarket Group is named after her. This is the best recognition of her contribution to the development of the Li Group's retail industry.
Today, she herself also enjoys this highest courtesy, and a university under the Lee Foundation will be named after her.
As for why Li Guangyu specified that the main source of students is from the mainland, she is quite clear. She believes that as long as her school starts recruiting students, there will never be a situation where no students come to study.
Look at the current Bentley University. It is not ranked very high in the world. Among the 21 schools in Hong Kong, it is estimated to be around 12th. You must know that this is because some universities are not comprehensive universities and the ranking is affected. Otherwise, Bentley
College will be lower.
But even so, Bentley University can still fully recruit 8,000 students every year, of which mainland students account for 2/3, and the rest are students from Southeast Asia, East Africa, Eastern Europe, etc., Xiangjiang, Lisboa, and Taiwan. Generally speaking, students will not
Apply to this school.
After all, the cost of this school is relatively high, and its strength is far behind those in Xiangjiang.
This is about strength rather than reputation. In mainland China and Southeast Asia, Bentley Island is quite famous, but Jiayi Group often promotes it. When Jiayi Group and even several major film and television groups in Hong Kong shoot movies and TV series here,
Bentley University is also an important place.
In order to promote Bentley University, Bentley University has also specially provided convenience for these film and television companies. There is also a specially established shooting spot inside the university.
This has resulted in many modern movies and TV series having the voice of Bentley University, and the admissions team of Bentley University is quite powerful, and has reached win-win cooperation with many middle schools in the mainland. Bentley Island has students here, and they have results there.
Zhang Ziyu responded: "Li Sheng, please rest assured. After the establishment of Ziyu University, Bentley Island will usher in a period of rapid development. A university can bring us at least a permanent population of 50,000 people, and the development of industry will be rapid."
Well, it can even exceed 100,000 people."
This aspect is not just about students. There are about 40,000 teachers, students and employees in Purple Rain University. The rest is surrounding industries. These 40,000 teachers, students and employees can create many jobs in the surrounding areas. Once there are jobs, they can be retained.
people.
Coupled with the continuous development of tourism and the development of the exchange, I believe that within two years, the permanent population of Bentley Island territory will exceed 500,000. You must know that the population of Lisboa is only more than 450,000 now, which is less than
There won’t be much more Bentley Island. It shouldn’t be a problem for Bentley Island’s resident population to exceed Lisboa in the next few years.
Li Guangyu then made arrangements for the development of the exchange. This exchange mainly attracted mainland companies as well as South Asian, East African and other companies to be listed here, with the focus still on the mainland.
With the development over the years, many private companies in the mainland have reached a certain scale, but there may be some restrictions on listing in Hong Kong. In this regard, the Bentley Island Exchange and the Hong Kong Exchange are complementary, which gives some mainland companies more opportunities.
A choice.
There are many financial institutions on Bentley Island, including Tianyu, Heung Kong, Hsinchu Commercial, East Asia, Heung Kong Asian Commercial, Sun Hung Kai, Far East and other banks of the Lee Group and its allies.
There are also HSBC, Standard Chartered, England, Sakura, Sumitomo, Daiichi Quanye, and some banks from Southeast Asian countries. There are also mainland banks such as Bank of China and ICBC, First Citibank, Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, etc.
There is a bank or office here.
As more and more companies are listed here, there will also be more and more financial and securities institutions here. Although Bentley Island Exchange cannot be compared with exchanges in New York, London, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Seoul, Singapore, Shanghai Stock Exchange, etc.
But there are still opportunities to become a financial center around the Indian Ocean.
You must know that whether it is Xiangjiang Fetion, Lebao or British Netcom, Happy Gou is all registered in Bentley Island, as well as Fengming Group and Zhuhe Software Company.
Especially Zhuhe Software Company, which is expected to be listed on the Bentley Island Exchange in the next year to drive the development of the Bentley Island Exchange.
If Lunji develops, it will be more advantageous for Zhuque Software Company to be listed on the London Stock Exchange, and its market value will definitely be higher there. However, Li Guangyu considered the development of the Bentley Island Exchange, so he thought of listing Zhuque Company here.
As for Zhuque Company, it will be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and avoid listing companies of the same nature on the same exchange.
Li Guangyu is relatively open-minded about the Internet industry. He will let it go public if it can be listed. The market value of this thing is not like that of real companies, and the market value of Internet companies is quite fictitious.
