"Ajian, but I don't know how much the Disneyland investment you mentioned costs?" Li Zhaotian is an old man after all, and he immediately got to the core of the problem.
"Yes, when doing business, you must pay attention to the balance between benefits and costs. If the costs are too high, then don't do it!" Li Jiacheng continued.
Of course Shi Zhijian would not give them a definite answer.
To put it bluntly, he was just throwing out a bait today to get Li Zhaotian and Li Jiacheng to take notice, so that they would have something to do and less stumbling for themselves.
In addition, it can also ease the relationship between each other. After all, they have also come to celebrate you, so you need to "show" it to some extent.
"I'm not sure about this. If Mr. Li is interested, he can go to the United States to investigate. By then, won't everyone know whether what I say is true or false?"
Li Zhaotian nodded and said no more.
Although Li Jiacheng was very dissatisfied with Shi Zhijian's answer, he had to admit that this answer was the best. When doing business, you must not follow others' opinions, but must conduct on-site inspections.
Immediately afterwards, Shi Zhijian explained some of the layout and structure of Disney that he knew in his previous life, including the seven major themes, the integration of hotels, vacations, and entertainment, etc.
These are all real, and Li Zhaotian and Li Jiacheng were excited again.
Shi Zhijian observed the situation carefully. Although neither Li Zhaotian nor Li Jiacheng gave a definite answer, Shi Zhijian was convinced that there was something going on.
Because when he told these contents, Li Zhaotian and Li Jiacheng listened very seriously.
Li Zhaotian bit his cigar, exhaled smoke, and kept nodding.
Although Li Jiacheng's face showed dissatisfaction, his hands behind his back rubbed each other from time to time. This was a habit he had developed when he was planning carefully.
…
When Shi Zhijian and others came down from the mountain, Li Zhaotian and Li Jiacheng chatted and laughed with him, which made everyone surprised again.
I don’t know what moves Shi Zhijian used or what magic weapon he used to make these two powerful enemies submissive.
Especially Mr. Huo and Mr. Xu, they couldn't guess what method Shi Zhijian used. For a moment, they couldn't help but look at Shi Zhijian even more highly. It was not difficult to defeat the opponent, but they could talk to the opponent like this and make peace in an instant.
But it's rare.
It was almost nine o'clock, and the groundbreaking ceremony just started.
Everyone gathered together. Shi Zhijian took the stage to speak on behalf of the real estate company, followed by two partners, Xu Shixun and Huo Zhenting.
These two young men were even more excited than Shi Zhijian. They actually wrote a speech script and read it carefully after taking the stage.
Fortunately, the script was well written, and the two young masters were very attentive. I think they had practiced it several times in private, and there were no mistakes on stage, and there were bursts of applause.
Finally, a distinguished guest was arranged to speak. Mr. Xu was not in good health, so Shi Zhijian asked Mr. Huo to do it for him.
When Mr. Huo came on stage, he didn't even need to hand out the manuscript, he just spoke casually, and he got more applause than the two young masters.
When Mr. Huo finished his speech, everyone thought that the distinguished guest had finished speaking, but they did not expect that Shi Zhijian took the initiative to invite Li Zhaotian to speak on the stage.
Li Zhaotian's mood was very strange. You must know that his relationship with Shi Zhijian is very delicate, but he didn't expect that he would stand up for him now.
The most excited people at this moment are undoubtedly the media reporters.
Originally, they thought that the groundbreaking ceremony was deserted and nothing special, and everyone was listless.
Unexpectedly, four wealthy people suddenly came to congratulate him, which made them as excited as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood.
Everyone is thinking about what kind of headlines will be published tomorrow.
"The foundation stone of Shinhwa Real Estate has been laid" is too ordinary.
"Four rich people congratulate Shinhwa Real Estate" is not too much of a gimmick.
But now——
"Smile and let go of grudges!"
"Lee Zhaotian helps Shi Zhijian on duty! If Shi Zhijian is born, how can Lee Zhaotian be born?"
When these media reporters looked at the scene in front of them, countless headlines suddenly came to their minds.
In short, Hong Kong will definitely explode tomorrow!
…
The groundbreaking ceremony ended.
Mr. Xu, Mr. Huo and others were the first to leave.
Li Zhaotian and Li Jiacheng were still thinking about the pie that Shi Zhijian drew for them, and had no intention of staying here for a long time. They casually greeted Shi Zhijian and left in a car.
Shi Zhijian turned around and discussed tomorrow's work with Mr. Xu and Mr. Huo. At this time, Dao Daoxiong came over and asked Hu Yong if he wanted to call it a day.
Only then did Shi Zhijian remember that they were still asking Hu Yong and others to hold the "Hong Kong Disneyland" sign. In addition, the bunny girls, Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse were still singing and dancing.
"Since Li Zhaotian and Li Jiacheng have left, let Ayong and the others withdraw! By the way, tell Ayong that the daily salary of those people is sufficient. It is not easy for a day's work!"
"Roger that, Brother Jian!" Daosheng Xiong was about to turn around and leave. Suddenly he seemed to remember something and turned back to report: "By the way, Brother Jian, that old lady Shi is still waiting outside. He said he has something to say to you.
speak!"
Shi Zhijian was startled for a moment, "Tell him that I will go there in the evening, but I am too busy to see him now!"
"receive!"
…
When Dao Daoxiong passed Shi Zhijian's words to Shi Taigong, Shi Taigong and his two sons looked at each other.
Second uncle Shi Dagui thought this was Shi Zhijian's excuse, and was a little reluctant to give up. He said to Shi Taigong: "How about we wait and see?"
Mr. Shi held his hands behind his back and said nothing.
Third uncle Shi Darong said: "It's better to go back first! We had a falling out with him last time, so it's not a problem to stick to him now!"
"If you don't wait and see, how do you know if there is a chance?"
Seeing that his two sons were arguing constantly, Shi Taigong said, "It's better to go back!" After saying that, he turned and left.
Seeing this, Shi Darong hurriedly followed.
Shi Dagui gritted his teeth and stomped on the ground: "What a great opportunity, what a pity!"
Shi Taigong and others thought that Shi Zhijian's failure to see them was an excuse and that he wanted to break with the Shi family and separate themselves.
But what they didn't expect was that Shi Zhijian actually came that night.
Shi Zhijian's appearance shocked not only his second uncle but also his third uncle.
Taigong Shi, who was so sulky that he went straight back to the house to lie down without even eating dinner, was even more surprised when he sat up from the bed and hurriedly put on his clothes and went out to greet him.
Shi Zhijian thought very clearly that it was impossible for him to separate from the Shi family. Although they were not related by blood and his father was only adopted by Shi Taigong, the kindness of adoption was still great.
In addition, Hong Kong in this era attaches great importance to the concept of family and ancestral hall.
Since Shi Zhijian's surname was Shi, he had to trace his origins. Especially after the country became developed, according to tradition, it was necessary to reconstruct the family tree and rebuild ancestral halls. These tasks had to be done by someone.
If he is separated from the Shi family, then there will be no origin. Even if you become famous and successful, because there is no such huge system as the so-called "family" and "clan", you will still be a loner in the traditional concept, and you will be laughed at.
