Chapter 255 Cooperation with California Consortium
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Guangyu welcomed Bank of America President Nick Giannini outside the hotel to see if the California consortium had the same purpose as the Texas consortium this time.

Americans have a very strong sense of time. They say when is what time it is, and it will not arrive early or be delayed for a long time.

After getting off the car, Nick Giannini said to Li Guangyu, "Hello, Mr. Li. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Under the introduction of Peng Xiaoli, Li Guangyu knew that the person in front of him was the current helm of the California consortium, Bank of America President Nick Giannini.

Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Giannini, I am the same, please."

Led by Peng Xiaoli, Li Guangyu and Nick Giannini came to the reserved private room.

Li Guangyu said to Nick Giannini after he sat down, "Mr. Giannini, what kind of coffee do you drink?"

Nick Giannini replied: "Mr. Li, I know that you all like to drink tea in the East. Today I will not drink coffee. I think Mr. Li must have good tea here. Let's taste the taste of oriental tea today. "

After Li Guangyu ordered Ganqin to make a pot of tea, he said to him, "Mr. Giannini, I am very honored that you specially invited me this time, but I can't think of anything else that the California consortium can do for us Li Guangyu." The group can help."

Nick Giannini said: "Mr. Li, I just came here today to get to know you as a young talent. Your development history has been studied by countless families and financial groups. The achievements you have made in just a few years are legendary. At the same time, all your American corporate headquarters are in our California, and some families and groups in our California hope to maintain a friendly relationship with you."

Li Guangyu didn't know what the California consortium had in mind. If it was just a purely friendly and cooperative relationship, Li Guangyu would welcome it very much. If the California consortium wanted to intervene in his group, Li Guangyu had to be careful.

Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Giannini, being able to maintain friendly cooperation with some groups in California is what our Lee Group hopes, and it can also promote the development of our Lee Group in California."

At this time, Gan Qin brought in the brewed tea and poured it for Li Guangyu and Nick Giannini respectively.

Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Giannini, this tea is the Wuyi Mountain Dahongpao tea I purchased from the mainland. It is one of the top teas in the mainland. Try some and see if you like it."

Nick Giannini knew that Li Guangyu was on guard against himself and the California consortium, worried that the California consortium would try to control his company.

Then he said to Li Guangyu: "Mr. Li, I know that you are very wary of our big families and financial groups in the United States. I think your worries are too much. For example, our California financial group just wants to make friends with you. Anyone who wants to annex your group, besides, your group is developing well, you can't just eat it, you don't have to worry too much at all."

Li Guangyu did not believe that these consortiums in the United States would be kind people. If they could swallow up the Li Group, they would definitely not be relentless.The consortium headed by Morgan is relentless when it comes to acquiring other companies, and most of the time it will be malicious acquisitions, which is why Li Guangyu is reluctant to list his group.

It is too easy for these predators on Wall Street to attack the Li Group in the stock market, and these predators are controlled by the American family consortia behind them.

Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Giannini, our Li Group is like a boy and a giant compared to you, and we have to act cautiously. Of course, it is my honor, Li Guangyu, to make friends with the California consortium."

Nick Giannini said: "Mr. Li, you don't have to worry too much about our California consortium. I am here this time to sincerely hope to become friends with you. I also know that you are not very fond of our California consortium. Understand, we will not immediately invite you to join our California consortium, we can cooperate first, let you feel the sincerity of our California consortium, the door of our California consortium is open to you at any time, you can slowly understand before making a decision. "

Nick Giannini did not hope that Li Guangyu would join him immediately like the Texas consortium. He hoped that the California consortium would help the Lee Group to develop in the United States and shorten the distance between the Li Group and the California consortium. The development of the group into an independent consortium can also serve as a powerful ally of the California consortium.If it does not develop into a consortium, the California consortium is Li Guangyu's best choice.

Nick Giannini also hopes to develop his business to the Asian region. The current situation of California consortium companies in Asia is not very ideal.In Japan, the California consortium did not gain a firm foothold under the attack of the six major consortiums in Japan. In the Baodao and Xiangjiang regions, the Citigroup consortium has more advantages here. Who made the California consortium start to rise after World War II? When the region was in World War II, the Citigroup consortium began to enter.

In the past few years, the Lee Group's influence in these regions and Southeast Asia has risen sharply. Nick Giannini does not want to let go of the opportunity of relying on Li Guangyu to bring the companies under the California consortium into these markets.

Li Guangyu himself listened to Nick Giannini's words, and put down his worries. If he just cooperates, it will be beneficial to both parties. Li Guangyu's development in the United States, with the assistance of the California consortium, Don't worry too much about some problems.

Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Giannini, what do you think about the cooperation between our two companies?"

Nick Giannini said: "Mr. Li, don't worry, our cooperation must be mutually beneficial. Our California consortium assists the development of your Li Group in the United States. We hope that your Li Group can assist some companies under our California consortium. development in Asia."

Li Guangyu did not have any opinion on this. Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Giannini, if this is the case, I think the cooperation between the Li Group and the California Consortium will be very pleasant. Our Li Group also hopes to reach such an agreement with you. cooperate."

Nick Giannini said with a smile: "Mr. Li, our cooperation must be able to promote the development of both parties, and will never harm everyone's own interests. At the same time, you also know that Merrill Lynch is also a group under our company. In the future, Angel When investing, I also hope that you, Tianyu Investment, can cooperate more with Merrill Lynch."

Li Guangyu immediately agreed to Nick Giannini's request. Anyway, it is impossible for these companies to be invested by Li Guangyu alone. With the California consortium entering, if Goldman Sachs is involved, the listing of these companies will definitely be very beneficial.

Li Guangyu discussed in the private room for more than two hours, discussing the framework and general direction of the cooperation between the California consortium and the Li Group.

After seeing off Nick Giannini, Li Guangyu said to Peng Xiaoli: "The specific details of our future cooperation with the California consortium are up to you to discuss with them. Since the California consortium intends to win us over this time, it is not right It will make us suffer."

Peng Xiaoli said happily: "Alright Mr. Li, I will ensure that the interests of the group will not be harmed during the negotiation."
