For Lin Zhiming, his own strength is important, but the people who assist him on the way to the top are equally important.
Lin Zhiming never thought that he could reach the top by himself. He needed as many talents as possible to assist him. Some of these talents were good at planning, such as Dong Jian, some could make money, such as Wang Hai, Zhang Quan, and others.
He can fight and kill, just like the six-person massacre team, Chen Bahuang.
All kinds of talents make up Lin Zhiming's power network. As Lin Zhiming's contact level gets higher and higher, his power network must continue to expand outwards, and as he expands, he must continue to introduce new people.
blood.
Only with the continuous entry of new blood can he continue to expand his territory of power, and be able to seamlessly connect with others immediately after an incident occurs to one of his subordinates.
Therefore, discovering talents can be said to be the most important thing for Lin Zhiming.
Lin Zhiming will not let go of any talent around him, such as Zhang Quan earlier and Huang Jie now.
That's why Lin Zhiming suddenly thought of calling Huang Jie to test Huang Jie's character, and Huang Jie's performance made him very satisfied.
In Lin Zhiming's view, a person can be incompetent and incompetent, but he cannot be without virtue and righteousness.
Obviously, Huang Jie is a talented, capable, virtuous and righteous person. If such a person is not collected, it would really be a waste.
Of course, it was impossible for Lin Zhiming to ask Huang Jie to be loyal to him right away. This was unrealistic, and such a talent would always have to go through some hardships before he could know how difficult the world is and who could lead him to fly.
Night falls.
Both Lin Zhiming and Dong Jian went to the place they had made an appointment with.
Sun Bai made an appointment with Lin Zhiming at one of his secret residences, while Dong Jian made an appointment at a private club.
Lin Zhiming was sitting in the living room, and Wang Hui was sitting in front of him making tea for him.
"Elder Sun is on his way here. Let's have tea first and he will be here in a while." Wang Hui said.
"There's no rush." Lin Zhiming smiled lightly and said, "I'm here early."
"Elder Sun was extremely happy when he knew that you were willing to cooperate with him. He has been waiting for this day for a long time!" Wang Hui said.
Lin Zhiming smiled and said, "I hope we can all get our wish."
At this moment, the door was pushed open.
Sun Bai, wearing a simple robe, walked in from the door.
Lin Zhiming stood up from his seat and looked at Sun Bai with a sincere smile on his face.
"Elder Sun!" Lin Zhiming shouted.
"Zhi Ming!" Sun Bai also smiled and nodded to Lin Zhiming, then walked up to Lin Zhiming and took the initiative to extend his hand and shake Lin Zhiming's hand.
"Finally a meeting gift." Sun Bai said with emotion.
"Yes, I have admired Elder Sun for a long time. Everyone says that the wisest person in Qingmu Hall is Elder Sun!" Lin Zhiming said.
"Haha, that's all nonsense. Every elder in Qingmu Hall is no worse than me." Sun Bai smiled and shook his head, then warmly took Lin Zhiming's hand and sat down.
After the two exchanged business compliments for a few words, Sun Bai turned the conversation to cooperation.
"Wang Hui, please take out the contract." Sun Bai said.
Wang Hui nodded, took out a contract from his bag and handed it to Lin Zhiming.
Lin Zhiming took the contract and read it.
The content of the contract is actually very simple. That is to say, when Lin Zhiming becomes the actual controlling shareholder of the five major industries of the Lin family, he must unconditionally and permanently donate Nanhuan Energy and Lianfeng Express to Sun Bai, and he must bear the corresponding responsibility.
as a result of.
This so-called consequence is actually the consequence of violating the Lin family rules.
"In the past hundreds of years, no family head has dared to violate the rules set by our ancestors, because once he violates it, Qingmutang will be qualified to deprive him of his status as the family head and find a successor from the Lin family. But if our
If the cooperation goes smoothly, then Aoki Hall will be eliminated by you, and no one can take away your identity as the head of the family. Although future generations may have some bad comments about you, at least for now, you can become the most independent person in the history of the Lin family.
A family head." Sun Bai said with a smile.
"Yes!" Lin Zhiming nodded and said, "I think there is no problem with this contract. Can we sign it?"
"Of course!" Sun Bai nodded, and then Wang Hui handed a pen to Lin Zhiming and Sun Bai respectively.
The two of them took pens and signed their names on the contract.
A contract is a conclusion.
This also means that Lin Zhiming and Sun Bai have become allies.
At least that's what the contract says.
Lin Zhiming handed his contract to Sun Bai. Sun Bai took a look at Lin Zhiming's signature and confirmed that it was Lin Zhiming's signature. Sun Bai put the contract away with a smile.
"Elder Sun, now that the contract has been signed and the alliance has been concluded, then...who should we deal with first?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Of course it's Li Xuan. Li Xuan is the least smart among all the elders and the one with the most obvious weaknesses. It's relatively easy to start with him," Sun Bai said.
"Wang Hui said before that Li Xuan is addicted to gambling?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Yes, what Li Xuan loves most in his life is gambling, gambling, gambling on goods, and gambling on jade. He likes anything related to gambling. Therefore, if you want to deal with Li Xuan, the easiest way is to find a breakthrough through gambling.
"Sun Bai said.
"For example?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Li Xuan will go to the Australian market every once in a while. He gambles a lot in the Australian market. If he can make a game, he will lose ten times out of ten bets." Sun Bai said.
"Australia is a gambling city. All the major casinos have relevant rules and regulations to prevent someone from cheating. Especially at Li Xuan's level, it is even more unlikely that any casino will be willing to cheat against him. If it is an unknown person,
It's impossible for Li Xuan to go to the casino. It would be very difficult to deal with him!" Lin Zhiming said in a deep voice.
"It's true that the casino won't take action, but...the dealer will." Sun Bai said with a smile.
"Dealer?" Lin Zhiming frowned.
"Yes." Sun Bai nodded and said, "In order to make the game smooth, I have been planning for several years in the casino he often goes to. The hard work paid off. There are a total of eight dealers in the VIP heaven-level hall.
, one of them has been bribed by me. If he bets with others in the VIP hall, I will have a chance to make a game. Once the game is successful, you should be able to know Li Xuan's fate without me having to say more.
"
"You can actually bribe the dealer in the VIP hall of the casino?" Lin Zhiming asked in surprise. You must know that in order to create a fair and equitable gambling environment in Macao, the control of relevant gambling personnel is very strict, especially
Those dealers have special agencies supervising their bank transactions and daily life. The higher the level of dealers, the stricter the supervision. The purpose is to prevent the dealers from being bribed. Although Sun Bai only bribed one,
This is quite difficult and not something that ordinary people can do.
"There is no one in this world that cannot be bribed. As long as the chips are enough, even Xiao Chentian can be bribed!" Sun Bai said with a smile.
"You are right!" Lin Zhiming nodded in agreement, and then asked, "Then what do you need me to do?"
"It's very simple, go to the Macao market and have a bet with Li Xuan! Win the management rights of his black gold mining industry!" Sun Bai said.
"Li Xuan's shares in the black gold mining industry are worth hundreds of billions, and he himself has a net worth of hundreds of billions over the years. How big of a bet can he win all of this? This is unrealistic!" Lin Zhiming said with a frown.
"Although the shares of Black Gold Mining are worth hundreds of billions, because he has no ownership rights to these shares, he cannot sell these shares at all. He can only exchange them for the management rights of these shares. In addition, because of the previous sanctions imposed by Nangong Daye, Li Xuan
His assets have shrunk significantly. Excluding black gold mining, his assets are only about 80 billion. It happened that Li Xuan invested in a large project some time ago, and most of the assets have been mortgaged. He can really get rid of the cash.
No more than 10 billion, and as long as you win his 10 billion, by then, his bargaining chip... will only be left with the management authority of the black gold mining industry." Sun Bai said.
"Your ultimate goal is to let him gamble away the management authority of the black gold mining industry?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Yes!" Sun Bai said.
"Is this okay? After all, the black gold mining industry belongs to the Lin family. Can he be allowed to lose to others?" Lin Zhiming asked with a frown.
"Of course. The final owner of the black gold mining industry is indeed the Lin family, but Li Xuan has absolute management rights. He can mortgage this part of his power. If the other party wins, then the other party will be the next Li Xuan. Qingmutang has been
Over the past few hundred years, the elders have actually changed several times. Some people had to give up their elder positions to cash out due to poor management. The person who takes over the elder position will continue to exercise the authority of the elders." Sun Bai
said.
"Oh... can you understand it this way? Li Xuan is the general manager of a certain company, and I am the owner of the company. Li Xuan has no money, so he took out the position of general manager and sold it to others. Then buy this position
Someone replaced Li Xuan as the new general manager?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Yes, that's it. In fact, our five elders are all managers of the Lin family's industry, and you are the owner of the Lin family. Because of the relevant regulations of the Lin family's ancestors, you have no power to control the Lin family's industry and can only enjoy dividends.
, and we can control the Lin family's industries, but we have no ownership rights in these industries. You only need to ask Li Xuan to export his management rights to the black gold mining industry, and then you will be the new fifth elder of Qingmu Hall!" Sun Bai said.
"Interesting... The ancestors of the Lin family really had to be kicked in the head by a donkey to come up with such a thing." Lin Zhiming said with a smile.
"In fact, the Lin family developed very well under such a system in the first few decades. Professional managers took care of the Lin family, while the main lineage of the Lin family did not have to do anything and simply enjoyed dividends. However, people's hearts are not easily satisfied.
, then slowly, Qingmutang became more and more powerful, and finally became what it is now." Sun Bai said.
"When will Li Xuan go to Macao next time?" Lin Zhiming asked.
