I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?
Chapter 553: Each One Is More Cunning Than the Other
This situation made Yang Dan very angry. He clenched his fists silently and wanted to punch Chen Xilai.
"We, the Hengxiao Group, came to Jianghuai Province to develop in order to make money, and we don't want to conflict with local entrepreneurs. Businessmen are only after profit. There are so many plots of land in the province, and we can't take them all. Even if we want to, the leaders won't agree. So some concerns are completely caused by some people being too nervous. Do you understand what we say, Mr. Chen?"
"I understand, I understand. But others don't think so. Your Hengxiao Group is really making a big move. Which developer in Xinlu can get so much land at one time? It's scary to see. And now Xinlu seems to be divided into camps. No matter which side the Hengxiao Group stands on, it seems that it will have a huge impact on the current development of Xinlu. Some businessmen have ulterior motives and their businesses are not legal and compliant. If you have too close contact with them and accidentally get on the pirate ship in the future, the consequences will be unimaginable..."
Chen Xi took a sip of wine with a smile, and glanced at Yang Dan beside him intentionally or unintentionally.
"My father actually has the final say over the group. His idea is harmonious development. We can definitely cooperate. Why do we have to fight to the death?"
"There's nothing wrong with what you said, but this is what you want to consider from your perspective. Imagine if someone comes to your territory to grab resources, you won't agree. Unless you can bring greater benefits to local businessmen, as you just said, businessmen are profit-seeking. I usually stay abroad and don't know much about the situation in Xinlu. To be honest, I am still willing to cooperate with Hengxiao Group, but you also know that I am from Xinlu. If I do this, it will cause criticism..." Chen Xi showed an embarrassed expression on his face.
Xu Jian looked at the young man in front of him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He could only raise his glass and clink it with Chen Xi. In the upper class, Xu Jian was relatively calm and low-key, and his food, lodging and daily life were quite down-to-earth. Because he had always stayed in China, he learned about the overseas students from his second brother.
Xu Jian believed that Chen Xi's different behavior from other domestic young men was a unique style of those who studied abroad.
In fact, he thought that the two would be tense when they met today, after all, their fathers belonged to different camps, but what happened tonight was beyond his expectations.
What he just said to Chen Xi was partly true and partly false. He and the Xu family actually did not want to have any large-scale conflicts with the local merchants in Xinlu. However, Hengxiao Group had just arrived in someone else's territory, and many things needed the help of local people. In addition, all the funds within the group were borrowed, and the interest generated every year was countless. If they wanted to fill this big hole, they could only borrow more money.
Who currently has the most cash in Jianghuai and Jiangsu Province?
The most rumored one seems to be about Chen Yifeng, but the other party is unwilling to provide funds to Hengxiao.
After making inquiries from many sources, the Xu family also learned that Yang Dingtian seemed to have a lot of money. Furthermore, Shi Danai and the Xu family were related to Feng Yun, so it seemed that the combination of these families was the perfect match.
The idea of the Xu family and Xu Jian was to cooperate with the Yang family without conflicting with the locals. Now thinking about it, this idea seems a bit naive.
Looking at Chen Xi in front of him, Xu Jian had a stronger intention to win him over. In his ears, what Chen Xi said just now was just an excuse to raise the price.
Give the other person what he wants.
The two chatted for a while, and after Chen Xi left, Yang Dan finally couldn't help but burst out: "Mr. Xu, what do you mean? You want to have the best of both worlds by cooperating with the Chen family and our Yang family."
"Don't worry, don't you know that Chen Xi and his father are not on good terms? I'm cooperating with him, not Chen Yifeng, why are you so angry? Your little grudge is just a result of trivial matters in the past. You are all grown up now, why are you still acting like a child? There are no eternal enemies. As long as there are interests, we are all friends. I heard that your Yang family has co-founded an overseas garbage recycling company with him. If you can cooperate with him, why can't I?"
"This...how can they be the same? That was done by my sister, and I was strongly against it." Yang Dan tried his best to explain.
"Okay, no need to say so much. As the successor of the Yang family, you should change your childish temper. We just chatted casually for a few minutes, and it is not certain that we can cooperate successfully. I think Chen Xi seems to be cunning, but people always have weaknesses, either they love money or they love power. As a young man born into a privileged family, or at our age, his biggest hobby is probably women..."
After saying that, Xu Jian casually glanced at his sister who was chatting with her best friend not far away.
This smart guy didn't know at this time that his good sister, who seemed to only know how to show off her wealth, had already been planning how to deal with the two brothers.
"Hey, did you do it with him in the box just now?"
"Haha, I'm not that hungry, but it's easy to take him down. I just need to move my toes and the man will crawl over to me obediently."
Her best friend asked about what had just happened in the box, and she thought Xu Yun and Chen Xi were doing something unspeakable in there.
Xu Yun was very confident that she could win over Chen Xi. She was such a beautiful woman with both money and beauty, and no man could resist her except eunuchs.
After walking out of the KTV, Chen Xi took a taxi home.
Looking at the night view outside the window, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
These young people nowadays are more cunning than each other.
Well, except for Yang Dan, who is simply a fool compared with Xu Yun and Xu Jian.
The next day, we visited the pedestrian street in the city center.
"Both suits are good. The black and blue colors go well together. Which one should we choose? Forget it, just buy both! Pack them up for me." Zhao Lingshan tilted her head, looked at Chen Xi who was trying on a suit, then turned around and shouted to the salesperson.
"Why would you buy so much? It's just a financial meeting."
"You're going to Taiwan again, so prepare an extra set. I'm going with you this time. It'll take two weeks to get a pass, and I've asked someone to get it."
"Ah? I just told you and you asked someone to do it? Why are you following me there? I'm here to do some serious work."
"Of course not. I want to go out and relax. My mom has pissed me off this time. She actually wants to find me a stepfather. Your dad is getting married soon, why are you still so happy?" Zhao Lingshan looked puzzled because Chen Xi was deeply traumatized by his parents' divorce.
"Oh, what can I do? No matter how much I say, can he not remarry? People have to be cheated once to learn their lesson." Chen Xi laughed and made a funny gesture, which made Zhao Lingshan giggle. The haze in her heart was now dissipated.
"By the way, what is your financial conference?" Zhao Lingshan then remembered the meeting.
"Because of the last financial crisis, the economies of all countries were affected. In order to prevent this from happening again, the various departments held this meeting to brainstorm..."
"Will people from other countries come to participate?" "I heard yes, but no one knows how many such financial conferences are held every year. The names are all weird, but this time it is held in Huajing, so it is more or less a conference." Chen Xi shook his head.
In my previous life, this kind of financial conference was held in every important city, and some were even organized by local governments. Many people considered whether to attend or not, depending entirely on whether there were any big shots among the invitees.
The presence of a big shot like Rogers can attract a lot of people to the meeting.
I heard that senior executives from various banks and CEOs of major companies will also be present this time.
Chen Xi chose to go just to give face to Feng Jialun. He planned to just listen casually at the meeting and be a nobody.
However, although Chen Xi thought so, the result was not as he wished.
"I want to go and listen, too, to enrich my knowledge. My mother said that the group will be handed over to me in the future..."
"I see you just want to go out and play." Chen Xi scratched her little nose.
"Hehe, you saw through all this." Zhao Lingshan hugged his arms and leaned her head against him.
This golden couple attracted envious glances from many passers-by.
"Tongtong, look at that couple over there, they have such a great relationship, the guy is handsome, the girl is beautiful..." said a girl to her companion outside the suit shop.
"What's so good about it? Go and apply for the job quickly and try to find an internship before the New Year." Another girl quickened her pace without even turning her head. She was dressed simply and had light makeup on her face. She looked like Xia Lian, but her brows were furrowed.
"How can you find a job before the New Year? I really don't know what you're thinking. Nowadays, beautiful girls should rely on rich men to make full use of their assets. If I had your looks, I would have gone to hook up with a rich second-generation man. By the way, I'm helping you find your rich second-generation ex-boyfriend who went abroad, but no one around me seems to know him..."
"Don't get into this mess. I found a company with two positions, one as a secretary and one as a receptionist. Let's see if the two of us can pass it."
"Oh, then I want to be a secretary. I don't want to be a receptionist. When I become a secretary, I will transfer you to a good position." When the girl heard that there was such a good opportunity, she quickened her pace.
"Why didn't Saori come with me when I returned to China this time? Did you break up?" In a restaurant, Zhao Lingshan raised her eyebrows at Chen Xi.
"Hehe, what are you thinking about? Something small happened in Australia and she is still there." Chen Xi poked the other person's forehead lightly with his finger.
"Oh? Did she see that I opened a fast food restaurant right in front of her dessert shop, so she wanted to do something secretly while I was away?" Zhao Lingshan began to imagine some things.
"Oh, I wonder if you two can live in peace." Chen Xi patted his forehead.
"Do you really think of yourself as an ancient emperor? Do you want to have a harem of three thousand beauties? Even though she is your girlfriend and it's not good for me to be like this now, we grew up together, and I... I really feel a little unbalanced..."
"Okay, okay. Let's talk about this later. Your family has acquired Qiye now, and I heard that you are planning to go public?"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Chen Xi quickly changed the subject.
"Well, according to Huang Yuman, they were planning to list in the United States. But he's an outsider, and he suddenly did so many things for my mother. I always feel that he has other purposes. Don't old men like to find young and pretty girls? My mother is a middle-aged woman, and a strong woman at that. She doesn't have the qualities of a little bird. It's suspicious no matter how you think about it..." Zhao Lingshan held up her cheek and sighed.
Chen Xi still knew about Huang Yuman and Liu Peiyun's affairs. The two did get married later, but Huang Yuman seemed to be a henpecked wife slave, and was well-behaved by Liu Peiyun. Moreover, his son had also immigrated abroad, and there seemed to be no disputes over the family's business and property.
"Ha, this Huang Yuman is also a successful businessman. He seems to be the first in the country to run a hotel chain. Nowadays, it's all about strong alliances. Young girls will also grow old and lose their beauty. It's better to have money and power. Besides, your mother is also very beautiful..."
"You know so much about this, have you investigated him?"
"There is no need to investigate this. Who doesn't know the founder of a domestic hotel chain? It's just that investment companies nowadays like to spend money to defeat their competitors. Many excellent companies have died in price wars, and only those who survive to the end are the winners. Although Huang Yuman is good at running hotels, his financing methods are a bit poor. If he doesn't find a reliable company to cooperate with, he will be doomed." Chen Xi knew this person before. Huang Yuman is still very capable, but no matter how capable he is, he is nothing in the face of strong capital.
In today's business, capital is everything. So the main job of the boss is to make money and build relationships, and the rest can be left to the subordinates. Huang Yuman obviously did not have the ability to make money, which led to his downfall.
But Liu Peiyun is good at making money. All the money in Dajiangnan was earned by her. Zhao Kai is actually a person who handles miscellaneous trivial matters in the company, so Liu Peiyun has the capital to be arrogant.
"According to what you said, he is here for my family's money. My mother is old and her eyesight is blurry. No matter what I say, she always says: You are not allowed to talk about your Uncle Huang like that..." Zhao Lingshan said sarcastically.
"Haha, let's not worry so much about adults' affairs. It's better to do your own business well. When you have money in your hands, you don't have to worry about other people's faces. The same goes for your parents." Chen Xi picked up a piece of meat for her and comforted her.
Two days later, Huajing.
"Haha, we meet again. This time you must be very curious about why I asked you to attend a financial conference. Do you think I asked you to come here to help me build connections because of Rogers's matter?"
"Ah? This...this..."
Feng Jialun's words made Chen Xi a little unsure of how to respond. He did think so, but after hearing what the other party said, it seemed as if he had guessed wrong.
"Haha, I'm just kidding you. I must have something important to tell you this time. The domestic financial industry is going to undergo a major reform. This concerns the fate of more than one billion people and all companies in the country. I'm very worried about this..." Feng Jialun laughed twice, then turned serious. (End of this chapter)
