Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 746

As the director of the Information Bureau, Song Yaolian is naturally very aware of the importance of publicity.

Like Lin Daoqiu, a famous film tycoon in Hollywood, if he is willing to help them speak out, it will be even more powerful for them.

But it's a pity that Song Yaolian didn't know that Lin Daoqiu didn't even think about his request, let alone think about it.

But now Lin Daoqiu can't directly reject the other party, he has to perfunctory them for a while.

"Director Song was joking. How much influence can I have as a banned person?"

Originally, Song Yaolian thought that the progress of this matter was all under his control.

But what he didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu's words made him stunned for a moment, and then a somewhat embarrassed expression appeared on his face.

Only then did Song Yaolian realize that Lin Daoqiu's willingness to come to Treasure Island was not because he had already seen it off, but because of the pressure of favor, so he had to go this way.

"Mr. Lin, that was just a misunderstanding. The Information Bureau had urgently held a press conference to clarify it. There was absolutely no such thing. It was just the negligence of the staff, and we have dealt with that person seriously."

Liao Xiangxiong on the side could only come out quickly to smooth things over, otherwise Song Yaolian would bring him today and do nothing, even if the other party didn't say anything, I'm afraid he would feel that he was useless at all.

"Misunderstanding? Director Liao said this really lightly."

Lin Daoqiu sneered, and then stopped talking.

Liao Xiangxiong turned his head to look at Song Yaolian, and the expression on the other side's face was not very happy at this time.

"Mr. Lin, life will inevitably encounter some stumbling blocks. If you encounter problems, you can discuss them and solve them with mutual understanding. Are you right?"

The purpose of Liao Xiangxiong's coming here today is to smooth things over, he can't let the situation stay there forever.

"I also want to solve it, but the problem is that no one cares about me at all. May I ask Director Liao, who should I ask to solve it?"

Lin Daoqiu's words made Liao Xiangxiong at a loss for what to say. After all, he didn't know the inside story and didn't know what happened at that time.

Song Yaolian on the side knew a lot of inside information, but he couldn't say anything at this time, after all, if he thought about it carefully, he would find that they really did something wrong.

"This……"

Liao Xiangxiong was at a loss for words immediately, this question was beyond his ability to deal with, and he had to leave it to Song Yaolian to answer.

"If Mr. Lin has any problems, you can come to me directly. No matter what happened before, but from now on, as long as Mr. Lin encounters any troubles in Baodao, come to me as soon as possible, and I will try my best to help you find a solution."

Song Yaolian is very smart, he doesn't talk about the past but only the future, so that he can avoid the stalemate on this issue.

But it is a pity that if Lin Daoqiu is really so easy to persuade, then he is not Lin Daoqiu, but a second fool.

"Director Song, the previous problems have not been resolved. What are you going to talk about? If the two of you have this attitude, then I don't think you have anything to talk about."

Lin Daoqiu picked up the napkin and wiped his hands. It seemed that he was planning to leave this place.

Liao Xiangxiong became anxious when he saw it, because if Lin Daoqiu left, everything they carefully arranged today might become useless.

"I don't know how Mr. Lin wants to solve it?"

Song Yaolian was actually in a hurry. If he and Lin Daoqiu couldn't reach an agreement, it was impossible for him to take him to see Li Zhengnan.

"According to the original conditions."

Lin Daoqiu didn't even think about it, he just blurted out his thoughts.

"If I remember correctly, Mr. Lin wanted us to compensate you for an interest-free loan of [-] million U.S. dollars?"

"Director Song is right."

Although Song Yaolian was smiling on his face, he couldn't smile at all in his heart.

At this time, it was only 1982, and the growth rate of Baodao's economy was twice as slow as that of the previous year.

In 1980, Taiwan's GDP growth rate was 7.3%, and in 1981 it was 6.2%.

Although only two quarters have passed this year, the trend of economic growth has slowed down considerably compared to last year.

At this time, asking them to lend [-] million U.S. dollars to Lin Daoqiu is simply a dream, not to mention that Song Yaolian does not have this right, even Li Zhengnan cannot do this.

So even if they agree, it is absolutely impossible for Lin Daoqiu to get such a large loan from Baodao.

"Mr. Lin, the economic situation of Baodao is not as good as you imagined. We still need help from the international community. Let alone 5000 million US dollars, even [-] million US dollars, we can't get it out."

Since Lin Daoqiu's condition was impossible, Song Yaolian simply let the other party stop thinking about it.

"I seem to have heard this sentence before. I didn't expect to hear it again after such a long time. It's really interesting."

Lin Daoqiu didn't bother to care whether the other party could take it or not, anyway, he had already said what he said, and it was up to them whether the other party answered or not.

"Mr. Lin, it's better to resolve enemies than to end them. If you are willing to cooperate, you will get more than confrontation."

Since being soft is not enough, Song Yaolian directly changed his attitude, and he planned to be a little harder.

"Confrontation? Director Song was joking. If I wanted to engage in confrontation, I wouldn't have waited so long without making a move."

With Lin Daoqiu's own conditions and strength, it is not impossible if he wants to be tough with this side. After all, the funds he can mobilize now are at least more than 200 billion Hong Kong dollars.

But once Lin Daoqiu did this, he had to be careful.

Because Baodao will not sit idly by, and once their bottom line is touched, these guys will be very good at assassinating.

Don't think that they are all reasonable people. These guys may be weak externally, but internally they are absolutely tough to the end.

"Since Mr. Lin has no idea of ​​confrontation, it is naturally the best. In fact, Mr. Lin can consider changing the request. As long as it is within our ability, we will try our best to meet it."

Song Yaolian also didn't want Lin Daoqiu to fight against them, after all, the other party's international influence was what they urgently needed now.

Getting into a stalemate with Lin Daoqiu would do them no good at all, and they might even push him over there in the end, and they would regret it later.

"Since Director Song said so, then I will give you a face and change a request that you can meet."

Lin Daoqiu looked at Song Yaolian and smiled.

Hearing that Lin Daoqiu was willing to change his request and no longer insisted on asking for a loan of [-] million US dollars, Song Yaolian was extremely happy.

But unfortunately, what Lin Daoqiu said next made Song Yaolian a little restless.
