At the beginning, I want to quit the arena

Chapter 87
81 Kadoorie Road, Kadoorie Hill, Kowloon.

There are two main roads in Kadoorie Hill, one is called Kadoorie Road, and the other is called Bricker Street, all of which are named after ghosts.

Kadoorie, the Jewish ghost family, is obviously more well-known in Hong Kong. Chinese newspapers once called this family: one family, three generations and four jazzes, with industries under their name all over Kowloon.

Bricker is a native of Portugal. He once served as a Portuguese member of the Legislative Council. Kadoorie's ability to buy Kadoorie Hill was also his handiwork when he was a member of the Legislative Council.

The entire Kadoorie Hill is the property of the Kadoorie family, and Kadoorie named the two streets after herself and the friends who helped out, which sounds natural.

Today, the total number of single-family villas in Kadoorie Hill is 120. The Kadoorie family owns 86 of them, and only sold less than [-] of them. Celebrities and superstars are proud to move here, but only sold less than [-] houses, because the Kadoorie family has no shortage of cash flow, and the bungalows under their name are only long-term rented and not sold.

As early as the 50s, when the monthly salary of ordinary workers was 150 yuan, the monthly rent of a bungalow here was as high as 700 yuan. The entire Kadoorie Hill was full of green shade and trees, like a quiet and pure land in the bustling urban area of ​​Kowloon. , independent of the hustle and bustle of the surroundings like a peach blossom garden, so that no matter if it is a rich family in Xiangjiang or an upstart in the city, they all want to ask for a set to show their status. Nowadays, the occasional news of sale on the market is that the owner bought it from the Kadoorie family as early as the early post-war period. The one I bought is even rarer than the mansion on the hilltop of Hong Kong Island. It is said that a house is hard to find.

And No. 81 is Li Shaokun's mansion. The mansion here may be hard to find for others, but for him, it didn't take much effort. The only son of the original owner got to know him, and accidentally got into the bad habits of Miss Bai. The debt owed in a few years made the owner of this mansion become Li Shaokun.

The three-storey main building, the streamlined smooth walls, the cylindrical foyer like a lighthouse, the windows like portholes, the gilded iron gate and the anti-theft barbed wire on the high wall all remind passers-by that every inch of land is precious. Hong Kong, how powerful the owner of this mansion must be.

At this time, in the study room on the second floor, 40-year-old Li Shaokun was sitting in a small meeting room at home, and distributed a box of cigars to several people sitting on the sofas on both sides at this time:
"A friend gave it to me. He built a piece of land in the Puerta area of ​​Cuba and planted it himself. According to him, the most suitable place in the world to grow tobacco is Buerta."

After everyone got it, Li Shaokun cut off the cap of the cigar in his hand with a cigar knife, roasted the cigar with a lighter, and said with a smile:
"I'm going to Nanwan next week for a visit. I was invited there to investigate and invest in building a factory. The relationship between Xiangjiang and Dongying is very embarrassing. The relationship between Nanwan and Dongying is much better. If you want to enter the Dongying market for clothing, you will indeed be able to pass through Nanwan. It's much easier, but I'm worried that the officials in Nanwan have too much appetite, and there will be a list of the top ten most wanted criminals there every now and then, which is the same as the ranking of masters in martial arts novels. It’s all because of kidnapping and extorting rich businessmen.”

At this time, several people in this conference room were Li Shaokun's business assistants and confidantes, except for Pan Zhanrong, who was in charge of the pirated comics business, and Cun Xian, who was in charge of the Mainland Mark Six lottery business.

"Mr. Li, I think the environment in Nanwan is actually OK. According to what I know so far, Tang Baixin Xinbo is cooperating with Hualong Textile in Nanwan recently, and the Tang family has been in Taipei, Taoyuan, Taichung, etc. for the past few years. We have acquired a number of textile or garment factories, and the purpose is likely to be the Dongying market. If we follow suit now, we should be able to take advantage of the momentum of the Tang family and bring Satino into Dongying." The first person to speak was the Satino company. General manager Liu Hanquan said after hearing that Li Shaokun was concerned about the investment environment in Nanwan.

The Tang Baixin he mentioned was known as the king of Africa in the 50s. He started out as a clothing maker. In addition to exporting clothing to Europe, the United States and other regions, he has a well-deserved number one sales in Africa. In simple clothing, clothing, In terms of textile business, no one in Xiangjiang could compete with Tang Baixin.

Its subsidiary Lai Sun Group has already been spun off and listed, excluding the two listed companies of Lai Sun International and Lai Sun Development, Li Sun Garment alone has a market value of more than three billion yuan. It may not be worth a fraction of the market value of the other party's company.

"Can I get in touch with Xinbo? I want him to give me some advice for this junior." Hearing Liu Hanquan mention Tang Baixin, Li Shaokun cast his gaze over, full of expectations.

But Liu Hanquan just shook his head and smiled wryly: "It's hard, Xinbo is from Chaozhou, and Chaozhou people are too united. It's good to give priority to Jiaojiao. I think even if you want to catch up with Xinbo, you have to wait to invest in Nanwan and join us. After Nanwan Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce, Xinbo is the chairman of the chamber of commerce. Otherwise, in Xiangjiang, no matter whether it is black or white, there is no chance. Ban Chaozhou bosses stand on their backs..."

"Forget it, I understand that this kind of thing can't be rushed, everything depends on yourself." Li Shaokun smiled and stopped Liu Hanquan from continuing, looking at other people: "Is there any problem with other businesses?"

Everyone else shook their heads, only Li Shaokun's legal adviser, Lu Zhibang, sipped his cigar and said, "Mr. Li, there is a small matter."

Li Shaokun bit his cigar, put his hands on the table, and looked at the legal consultant he had hired with a high salary: "Lawyer Lu, just open your mouth."

"I received a complaint from a comic company, suing Mr. Li's Tianlong company." Lu Zhibang looked at Li Shaokun and said with a smile: "The reason is infringement. The other party seems to have a genuine authorization of Dongying comics. Doing legal business in Xiangjiang, I found that piracy is rampant, so I sued the pirate company, and the court just happens tomorrow, and I will represent Mr. Li to appear in court with Tianlong Company."

"I'm listening, continue." Li Shaokun was expressionless, staring at Lu Zhibang with his narrow eyes like snakes.

Lu Zhibang shrugged his shoulders: "It's up to them. I'm Mr. Li. You asked me, and I just said it casually. There is no such thing as copyright in Hong Kong. Don't worry, the other party will definitely lose."

Li Shaokun nodded, then exhaled smoke, and looked at everyone with a smile: "But this kind of business really can't last long, if it wasn't for the eight or seven disasters, I wouldn't be able to turn around, relying on Tianlong Company to help me with blood transfusions, I'm ready to take the money out Go to RB to buy the copyright. Since you want to wash the bottom, of course, clean it up. It’s the most troublesome thing to not clean it up. Then you have to work hard. If you need to pay for communication and other expenses, you can contact my secretary Hua at any time. I will indeed have tomorrow. Arrangement, I asked my wife to invite her sister and brother-in-law Yan Sen to go fishing together. Yan Sen is Li Shuming's confidant. Last time Li Shuming learned from him that I have a printing factory. I hope to learn more tomorrow, these politicians have never spoken clearly."

"I understand, it shouldn't be necessary. The law does not blame the public. How many companies in Xiangjiang do this kind of business. Even if they really want to talk about copyright, they have to shirk it for at least two or three years." Lu Zhibang bit his cigar and said in an affirmative tone.

Li Shaokun in front of him, in the eyes of Lu Zhibang, is a hero who can become a big weapon. In order to clean up and find a backer for himself, all three children and his ex-wife rushed to the Philippines, and then he divorced after declaring that his ex-wife cheated on him. He gained the sympathy of his current wife, Liu Yunqin, by relying on self-defilement, and then tried his best and spent a lot of money to pursue her.

It's not that this lady is beautiful, but now this Mrs. Li is just an ordinary-looking woman. Compared with Li Shaokun's tall and beautiful stewardess ex-wife, it is completely different. However, this lady's sister and brother-in-law are both in politics. Money, the other party has status, just need to abandon a woman and marry another woman, and the initial stage of political and business negotiations can be quickly completed. For Li Shaokun, this deal is very cost-effective.

His wife's family is also a powerful figure. The three sisters are often nicknamed the three sisters of the Mini Song family. The eldest sister married Yan Sen, a political leader in Xiangjiang, the second sister married Li Shaokun, a budding businessman in Xiangjiang, and the youngest sister married into a famous art family in Xiangjiang. , The husband's family chosen by the three sisters happens to be one of politics, one of business, and one of them.

However, Lu Zhibang thought for a long time, and he didn't think that Li Shaokun's current political background could withstand Tianbo's bite. He had been in the legal field for many years and knew well the energy that Tianbo was about to explode. To sink, of course he chose to abandon Li Shaokun and cooperate with Tianbo to ensure that he landed safely. As for what happened to Li Shaokun, he didn't care.

Li Shaokun took a few puffs of his cigar, thought for a moment in silence, and then looked at his secretary in the corner: "Ah Hua, remember to call Ah Rong from Tianlong and ask him to keep a low profile for a while, and find a way to contact the genuine company to see if there is any Opportunity for everyone to cooperate. They want to sell genuine copies. It will take a lot of time to reopen the market. If we cooperate and authorize Tianlong, it will be much faster. I may consider giving up a part of Tianlong’s shares and allowing them to use copyright as shares, so that everyone They all make money, and Tianlong Company can take advantage of the opportunity to use the name of the genuine version to suppress the market share of other pirated companies. To put it simply, Xiangjiang’s business is the same as that of gangsters, peace is the most important thing, everyone seeks money together , the other party filed a lawsuit against Tianlong, just to ask for money, we give up part of the profits, cooperate, not only to whitewash our identity, but also to grab business from other companies in a fair manner, isn't it the best of both worlds?"

Ah Hua promised: "Understood, Uncle Kun, I will call Uncle Wan at dawn tomorrow."
