Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

"I'm Davidson, general manager of JP Morgan Chase branch in Xiangjiang. Hello, Mr. Long."

Long Lishu stepped forward and quickly held Davidson's hand with both hands.

"Hello Mr. Davidson, I am Long Lishu. Thank you very much for taking the time to meet with me despite your busy schedule."

Long Lishu, who is already in his fifties, was originally in good health, but as Long Shaotian came in, all cooperation with the Long Group was canceled by JP Morgan, and his head turned gray overnight. He already looks like an old man in his sixties or seventies.

"I know exactly what Mr. Long came to see me for. Let's sit down and talk."

Davidson made an inviting gesture, and then invited Long Lishu to sit down on the sofa area next to him.

Judging from Davidson's appearance, he seems to be quite easy to talk to. Perhaps this time is a good sign that he can solve the crisis of Long Group.

When Long Group and JPMorgan Chase were discussing cooperation before, they only met with the investment manager of the other party, not to the level of the general manager. This shows that JP Morgan Chase did not pay too much attention to Long Group. Otherwise, Davidson It is impossible for the general manager not to meet with them all the time.

As for meeting each other this time, Long Lishu believed that this had a lot to do with Lin Daoqiu. If it hadn't been for his instruction, Davidson would not have made a special trip to meet with him. Even if he wanted to meet, it would be the previous investment manager and himself. meet.

The current problem is very simple for Long Lishu. As long as he can persuade Davidson in front of him to nod and let him revoke JPMorgan Chase's previous decision not to cooperate with the Long Group, all problems will be solved.

But just when Long Lishu was thinking about how to persuade Davidson to lift the sanctions on the Long Group, the other party's words left Long Lishu speechless.

"Mr. Long, it was not me who gave the order this time, but the order from the management of JP Morgan Chase headquarters. So I want you to understand one thing. It is useless to convince me. I have no right and no way to cancel the order to Long." Group’s cooperation or sanctions.”

Long Lishu, who was originally full of confidence and ready to convince Davidson, was speechless after hearing what the other party said.

This time, it turned out to be someone from JPMorgan Chase's headquarters who gave the order. Who did he offend?

"You came to see me today. It was the person who told me to meet you and explain everything clearly, so that you would not cause problems if you are too lazy to eat."

The person Davidson was talking about must be Lin Daoqiu, but how could he eat and sleep by doing this?

"Mr. Davidson, is there any way you can help me solve this problem? I am willing to do whatever you ask me to do."

Long Lishu looked at Davidson with a pleading look, hoping that the other party could help him find a way out.

But what Long Lishu never expected was that Davidson simply spread his hands towards him, immediately rendering Long Lishu speechless.

"Don't think that I have much power just because I am the general manager of JPMorgan Chase's branch in Hong Kong, but please think about it for a moment. JPMorgan Chase has so many branches around the world and so many general managers. I am alone. How much power do you have? If you come to me, you might as well go to the headquarters of JP Morgan Chase in North America to find someone for help. In that case, there may be hope, but if you want to rely on me to help you, then I can only say that you are really Thinking a little too much.”

Davidson has already said this. If Long Lishu still doesn't understand, then he is really a fool.

Looking at the other party, Davidson still had an indifferent expression. Long Lishu knew that no matter what he said, it would be useless, so he stood up from the sofa.

"Thank you Mr. Davidson, I will find another way."

Although Long Lishu said so, he could not think of any way. If there was any way, he would not come to Davidson for help.

"I wish you good luck, my friend. I hope you can resolve your troubles as soon as possible. In addition, please remember the lesson of this time. Don't mess with Mr. Lin. He can't mess with anyone." Davidson gave Long He wrote a piece of advice, but he gave it too late, and he didn't give it to the right person.

Davidson's advice should have been given to Young Master Long, but unfortunately the other party had already entered and it was too late.

……

"The Long Group is finished this time. Do you want Mr. Lin to join forces with me to acquire this company?"

Lin Jianming invited Lin Daoqiu out for tea. During the conversation, he talked about the Long Group. From the meaning of Lin Jianming's words, he seemed to be planning to take advantage of the situation.

But even if he doesn't take advantage of the situation, someone else will take action against the Long Group. After all, the Long Group has become a peach on the tree, and it depends on who can pick it.

"I'm not interested. If it's a film industry, I might be interested in cooperating with others, but other than that, I'll do all the other business myself."

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Lin Jianming knew that he would not interfere with the Long Group. After all, if Lin Daoqiu intervened again, it would be difficult both emotionally and rationally. Of course, he would kill everyone in the mall. Things often happen. If anyone goes into business with a compassionate heart, sooner or later he will lose everything.

"In that case, let me go in and give it a try."

Lin Jianming cautiously tested, if Lin Daoqiu had no idea about the Long Group, then he would really take action.

"Whatever you want, you don't need to talk to me about the Long Group's affairs in the future, I'm not interested."

Lin Jianming nodded. Since Lin Daoqiu said so, he didn't need to confirm with the other party.

"I've already taken care of Dahua Pictures, but what about you? Haven't the bosses of Treasure Island taken care of it yet?"

When asked by Lin Daoqiu, Lin Jianming's face immediately showed a troubled expression.

He and Lin Daoqiu had agreed before that Lin Daoqiu would buy Dahua Pictures, while Lin Jianming would buy the theaters owned by Baodao owners and combine them to form New Oriental's Asian theater chain.

But now that Lin Jianming is busy acquiring the Long Group, he has not talked much about the acquisition of their theaters with the Baodao bosses. After all, the Long Group is much bigger. How much are theaters in Malaysia worth? This comparison You will know which side to focus on.

But when Lin Daoqiu suddenly asked him this question, Lin Jianming also became nervous.

"We are negotiating. I have already increased the price by 30%, but they still refuse to nod. It is really troublesome."

After Lin Jianming finished speaking, Lin Daoqiu looked at the tea cup in front of him, and then said slowly.

"I purchased shares of Dahua Pictures at twice the market price. Are you kidding me?"
