Nine hundred and tenth chapter on the eve of leaving
Li Guangyu's team stayed in Vancouver for five days. Since Canada belongs to the Commonwealth, Li Guangyu's industry encountered no obstacles in investing here.
Even the establishment of a logistics support and maintenance base at the Vancouver Airport has been approved by the Vancouver City Council.
This is the first step for Xiangjiang Air Transport Group to develop out of Asia. Vancouver will be their global expansion. asxs. After establishing a maintenance base in Vancouver, the Lee Group can open more routes in North America.
On December 15, Li Guangyu was invited by the Vancouver Council to give a speech at the City Council.
This is the first time Li Guangyu has given a speech in a local parliament, and he has no experience to draw from.
Li Guangyu spent half an hour in his speech at the parliament. First, he expressed his love for Vancouver, and second, he highlighted Vancouver's excellent geographical transportation environment and investment environment.
The third statement stated that Lee's Industrial Group is willing to work hard with the citizens of Vancouver to build a better Vancouver, and Lee's Industry is willing to contribute to Vancouver's economy.
The fourth is to highlight that Lee Industries is a socially responsible company that never lags behind in charity and is willing to provide help to Vancouver citizens in need.
Li Guangyu said at the Vancouver City Council: "We at Li's Industry are not here to seize anyone's market. We hope that our companies can provide high-quality services to the citizens of Vancouver and even the entire Canadian people, so that everyone can enjoy our Li's Industry.
At the same time, our industry will also increase cooperation with Canadian companies to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results."
Li Guangyu then listed the benefits that Bentley Motors Group has brought to Vancouver auto parts companies by establishing a production base in Vancouver, as well as the orders that Hengyu Supermarket Group has brought to countless companies in Vancouver and throughout Canada.
At the same time, he also emphasized the huge resources of Jiayi Cinemas and his willingness to achieve in-depth cooperation with entertainment film and television companies in Vancouver.
Members of the Vancouver Assembly were very happy to listen to Li Guangyu's speech, because many of them are related to their vital interests, especially automobile auto parts and entertainment film and television companies, which are two important development pillars of Vancouver, and they have reached cooperation with the Li Group.
, will allow them to gain more benefits.
It was Li Guangyu's speech that enabled some of his industries to quickly pass the approval of parliament and the government, saving a lot of time for his development.
American companies are coming faster than Li Guangyu imagined, especially Wal-Mart supermarkets.
There were originally two stores in Vancouver. In order to snipe the Lee Group out of the Canadian market, they deliberately added five new supermarkets in Vancouver, where Lee's industry started. They are now starting to select locations in order to enter Hengyu Supermarket.
Before, this market was completely occupied.
On the eve of leaving Vancouver, Li Guangyu specially gave instructions to the person in charge here, Shane Wesley. Wesley will stay in Vancouver for a long time in the future. In addition to being responsible for the affairs of the Bentley Group in North America, he is also responsible for the affairs of the Bentley Group in North America.
He will serve as the person in charge of the Lee Foundation's Canadian affairs and preside over the development of the Lee Foundation's industry in Canada.
Shane Wesley was very excited when he heard that Li Guangyu asked him to take charge of the Canadian affairs of the Lee Consortium. So far, there has never been a person from outside Xiangjiang to serve as the regional head of the Lee Consortium. He is the first one.
As a senior executive of the Li's Consortium, he also hopes that one day he can become one of the core members of the consortium and be in charge of the Li's Consortium's comprehensive consortium with a market value of over 100 billion.
And being the person in charge of Canada is just the first step for him to advance. In the future, he is very hopeful to become the person in charge of North America. In that case, he will be able to join the executive team of the Lee Group.
The current head of North America, Peng Xiaoli, is not too young. As long as she gets married, it means that the position of the head of North America will be vacant. At present, he has a very good chance of taking over this position.
He excitedly said to Li Guangyu: "Mr. Li, please rest assured, I will definitely lead the development of our industries in Canada, repel the attacks on us by American companies, let our industries take root in Canada, and become a Canadian peer."
Industry leader."
The reason why Li Guangyu arranged for Shane Wesley to be the person in charge of Canada is that the Li Consortium has entered many industries in Canada this time and the investment volume is relatively large, so it needs one person to coordinate the mutual cooperation and development of various enterprises.
Secondly, since Shane Wesley is British, it is easier for him to deal with the Canadian government and facilitate the development of the Lee Consortium in Canada.
Li Guangyu said: "Wesley, this time our Hengyu Supermarket Group and the Vancouver Communications Company, a joint venture with the Vancouver Municipal Government, will take the lead in large-scale expansion. You must assist their development and provide them with help. As for your Bentley Group
For the expansion, you will handle it according to Zhang Ziyu’s request.”
This investment involves Bentley Group, Xiangjiang Air Transport Group, Nanhua Group, Xiangjiang Telecom Group, Hengyu Supermarket Group, and Wheelock Group.
In addition, Phoenix Mobile will also enter the Canadian market and establish direct stores in various places to promote the group's occupation of the Canadian mobile phone market.
The reason why Li Guangyu specifically emphasized these two companies is mainly to cope with the competition from the American consortium. Whether it is the Canadian Mobile Communications Company, a joint venture between Motorola and the Canadian government, or Wal-Mart Supermarket, they have already established a presence across Canada.
In order to put both parties on the same competitive front, both Hengyu Supermarket Group and Vancouver Communications Company must speed up their layout and strive to close the gap between the two parties within one year.
The Vancouver city government is very supportive of accelerating the nationwide deployment. Together with Xiangjiang Communications Group, they have invested US$500 million in the company to deploy signal base stations in major cities in Canada.
As for the signal base stations in market towns and villages, the company needs to make profits in the future to continue to expand. Canada has a large land area and a small population. Currently, Canadian mobile communication companies are only building signal base stations in various cities. They do not need to invest huge sums of money from the beginning.
It’s really not cost-effective to cover rural areas.
Shane Wesley responded: "I will focus on the development of Hengyu Supermarket Group and Vancouver Communications Company. I believe in the strength of these two groups. Whether it is Motorola or Wal-Mart, we have the strength to compete with them."
After Shane Wesley left, Li Guangyu was thinking about his next stop—Mexico. In his previous life, what Li Guangyu heard most about was how the United States prevents smugglers at the border. The President of the United States even proposed
Build a wall at the border.
At present, Mexico is still controlled by the Institutional Revolutionary Party. This party has controlled the Mexican government for nearly sixty years since the end of the civil war. In such an area, direct cooperation with the government will be the best option.
Li Guangyu really doesn’t know any well-known companies in Mexico, and currently Mexico and the United States have not reached a North American Free Trade Agreement, so the competition between the Li Group and American companies in Mexico will not be particularly unfair.
Mexican oil is good, but it is currently mainly monopolized by the Mexican government. It is impossible for Li Guangyu to intervene.
This time, Li Guangyu hopes that his industry will occupy the Latin American market. Mexico and Brazil will be located in the north and the south at the same time, which can accelerate his plan.
