Reborn in the red age

Naturally, Qingfeng Li would not know what happened in Fangshan Manor after he left.

Even if he knew, he would just smile and then exclaimed that after working in the super dollar business for two years, Lao Mou knew how to do business.

When investing in a business, who would use their own money when they can use other people’s money?
After returning home, Hu Jiabao had not gone to bed yet and was waiting for me in the room.

After a quick wash and changing into the pajamas Hu Jiabao had prepared for him, Li Qingfeng told him about his meeting with Mou Qizhong that evening.

After hearing this, Hu Jiabao's first reaction was: "Are you still cooperating with Mou Qizhong? That guy is unreliable. Not to mention that he lost money on a satellite company before, now he wants to start a chip company again."

"Don't worry. I only hold shares in this cooperation and I don't pay any money. How can I lose money?" Li Qingfeng shrugged and said with a smile.

“There is such a good thing.”

"Of course, your man's reputation is money now." As he spoke, Li Qingfeng remembered something and continued, "By the way, go out and buy a large glass jar tomorrow. Mu Qizhong got me a tiger penis, and I'll use it to make wine."

"Isn't it disgusting? Don't follow those people who believe in like cures like. I don't know what you are thinking. It's a protected animal. It's wrong to eat it, and you even use it to make wine." Hu Jiabao frowned and said with disgust.

"You've taken them all, come and try them. Oh, and there's also a tiger skin, it's quite intact, I took it back too, see if you want to make a mattress out of it or something."

"This is great. Suzhou is so humid. I'll give it to my parents for winter use."

"Are you not talking about protecting animals now?"

"Hate"

In order to show their strength to the local people, bosses and wealthy people from all over the country like to invite singers and actors to perform on the spot.

Therefore, even though those stars may not have very strong abilities, they know quite a lot of bosses.

This time they also acted as brokers for Mou Qi Zhong. In just one night and one morning, wealthy bosses from all over the country received the news that Mou Qi Zhong wanted them to know.

In the eyes of these wealthy bosses, Mou Qizhong's name is intimidating enough, not to mention the addition of Li Qingfeng.

Li Qingfeng holds a very important position in China, and the projects he is involved in naturally carry the aura of making big money.

For a while, investment calls from all over the place flooded into the cell phones of those actors and stars last night.

"That singer is Wang Fugui from northern Shaanxi. I heard that Mou Qizhong and Li Qingfeng have set up a chip company and are looking for investment. I am very concerned about this matter. Can you invest more money?"

On the other end of the phone, Wang Fugui, speaking with a thick Shaanxi accent, anxiously asked Na Ying about this investment.

Na Ying, who also attended the party last night, raised her lips and said slowly, "Boss Wang, this is a big project. The initial investment is 2 billion yuan. I am a friend of Mr. Mou, so he gave me an opportunity to invest. If you want to invest, you can count it towards my quota. The minimum investment is 10 million yuan."

"Ten million?" Wang Fugui was obviously stunned for a moment, but soon recovered: "Well, singer, I've invested in a few projects recently, and the funds are a bit tight. Can you give me a little less?"

"How can this be too few? There aren't many places available to begin with. This time it's only because of Mr. Mou's relationship that we can get it. Otherwise, how could Chairman Li's project allow people like us to invest?"

"Okay, I'll buy a ticket to the capital right now and we can talk face to face."

On the day the news spread, wealthy people from all over the country began to take action, gathering in the capital, ready to participate in this big project.

That evening, Mou Qizhong roughly counted the amount of money that was currently intended to be invested. When he saw that in just one day, more than 40 people agreed to invest and the investment amount reached 600 million, he was completely stunned.

This really underestimated those celebrities. I thought that raising 100 million or 200 million would be enough, but I didn't expect that I could get 600 million in intended investment on the same day.

In order to get the money out of the pockets of the local tycoons, Mou Qizhong called his secretary overnight and asked him to arrange for someone to clean up a conference room from the Nanfang Group the next day to entertain these local tycoons coming from all over the country.

"Huh? What? There's such a thing?"

In the company, Li Qingfeng, who was discussing the operation of the communication satellite with Yi Xuexue, was stunned when he heard the report from He Guangqin who came in.

This old Mou is really good. He made six or seven hundred million yuan under his own name.

Before Li Qingfeng could say anything, Yi Xuexi slammed the table and stood up: "Why is Mou Qizhong like this? He wants to attract investment, but why does he have to use your name? His crappy plan will definitely not work, and in the end, your reputation will be damaged as well."

"Okay, sit down quickly. I haven't said anything. Why are you in such a hurry?" Li Qingfeng waved his hand, motioning Yi Xuexue to sit down.

"I'm just worried that your good reputation will be affected by Mou Qizhong."

"This little thing can't affect my reputation"

Li Qingfeng said so, but after Yi Xuexi sat down, he still asked He Guangqin to notify Huaxin and explain the matter through Huaxin's official channels.

It means that the cooperation between Huaxin and NanDe is just a technology investment, which only holds 10% of the shares, and the major shareholder is NanDe Company.

Huaxin only provides technical support and does not participate in operations. The internal operations of the super chip company are also mainly carried out by NanDe.

After all, Li Qingfeng was very careful about his reputation. Friendship was one thing, but Mou Qi Zhong's reputation had long been tarnished, so he didn't care about that reputation. However, Li Qingfeng's reputation and credibility were still very valuable.

You can use my name to attract some investments, but you can't continue to deceive people like before and kill them without burying them.

He Guangqin quickly wrote down Li Qingfeng's request and asked, "If a reporter asks about the investment amount, do we need to respond?"

"Isn't it 1 billion?" Li Qingfeng was stunned and asked.

"Mr. Mou promised you 1 billion yuan, told investors 2 billion yuan, and published in the newspapers that the investment was 5 billion yuan."

"."

Li Qingfeng didn't know what to say for a moment. One billion became five billion, but this guy's work style didn't change at all.

After a moment of silence, Qingfeng Li said, "It's his business if he likes to brag. After all, Huaxin also has a 10% stake in it. We can't fool around with him."

“If the reporter asks about the investment amount, we will say that Huaxin only knows that the initial investment agreed with Nanfang is 1 billion, and Huaxin is not aware of the other amounts.”

He Guangqin responded, turned around and went out, quickly carrying out the task assigned by Li Qingfeng. After He Guangqin left, Yi Xuexi continued indignantly: "Teacher, this Mou Qizhong is too unreliable. I suggest that we should not cooperate with him."

"Okay, I have my own thoughts. Let's not talk about him. Tell me how your satellite company operates this satellite." Li Qingfeng waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to mention this matter, and turned to ask about the operation of the satellite.

"Don't worry about that. International communication satellites are not like the satellite TV broadcasting rights we had before. There is a huge demand for communication satellites. Not only foreign companies in China, but also many domestic companies have expressed their intention to cooperate with our company."

As he spoke, Yi Xuexi took out a stack of documents from his briefcase and handed them to Li Qingfeng. The documents contained information about companies that had called the satellite company to inquire about frequency leasing after the satellite was successfully launched.

Li Qingfeng glanced at the names listed above, as well as the frequency bands and durations to be rented, and nodded with satisfaction.

The communications business is really easy to do. You don’t have to go around the world looking for customers like you do with satellite navigation. You can just sit at home and customers will come to you.

"Yes, it seems that our satellite project is still very promising. Let's launch a satellite to test the waters first. If it works, we will launch a few more next year."

"I understand," Yi Xuexue nodded and replied, "By the way, teacher, I have another question. Our satellite operating costs are lower than those of our foreign counterparts. Should we use low prices to seize the market?"

"The satellite is just in operation. In the first year, we can appropriately reduce the price by more than five percentage points. In the second year, it is enough to be one percentage point lower than our foreign counterparts. We are a high-tech company, not a low-end manufacturing company. If we reduce the price too much, it will mess up the market and affect the company's subsequent development. While ensuring reasonable profits, we must also maintain a healthy market order."

"Ok, I see"

Yi Xuexi carefully took note of Li Qingfeng's instructions, and then reported some operational details of the satellite company.

Finally, the question was raised about how to deal with the more than 40 million yuan that was cheated out of the Aerospace Industry Corporation.

If Yi Xuexi hadn't mentioned it again, Li Qingfeng would have almost forgotten about the 40 million yuan.

The Aerospace Industry Corporation has a special status in the country and cannot fall out with it. This money is destined not to be recovered. It all depends on how much of the maintenance costs can be deducted in the end.

After a moment of silence, Qingfeng Li slowly said, "Let's not mention this matter from today onwards. Just forget about it. When the satellite has problems and needs maintenance, use this money as a deduction."

After listening to this, Yi Xuexi nodded. Although he felt a little unwilling, he also understood what Qingfeng Li meant. Instead of worrying about the money, it would be better to find a way to make it up in future cooperation.

Anyway, this is not a one-time business. We will have many dealings with each other in the future. Just take it slow.

"Okay, teacher, I understand." Yi Xuexue responded solemnly, "I will keep this in mind and deal with it when I have the chance in the future."

Qingfeng Li nodded with satisfaction, and then added: "This is just a lesson we paid. We will learn from our mistakes."

"Yes, teacher, I will pay special attention to it and never let such a situation happen again."

Li Qingfeng smiled, got up from his chair, stepped forward and patted Yi Xuexue on the shoulder: "Okay, don't blame yourself too much. The business world is like a battlefield, and it's inevitable to encounter such things. The important thing is that we learn from it and don't make the same mistake again in the future."

Yi Xuexi looked at Li Qingfeng with gratitude, and secretly made up his mind to run the satellite company well and not let his teacher worry about it anymore.

After Yi Xuexi left, Li Qingfeng leaned back in his chair and thought about Mou Qizhong's matter.

He has gone too far this time. He has raised so much money by borrowing his own name and invested it in a business that is doomed to lose money. Will those businesses that are losing money let him go?

Nowadays, among those who have assets of tens of millions in the local area, how many are easy to deal with?
If they knew they were fooled by you, Old Mou, they might dare to do something illegal.

Thinking of this, Qingfeng Li shook his head and continued to sign the documents that required his signature.

There are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in his companies, so he has no time to worry about Mou Qizhong's troubles.

Under Li Qingfeng's instructions, Huaxin acted quickly and held a press conference that afternoon to announce the details of its cooperation with NanDe Group.

It also clearly stated that Huaxin only participated in the super chip company project in the form of technology investment, with a shareholding ratio of 10%, and would not participate in the company's daily operations and management.

At the same time, Huaxin emphasized that the initial investment amount of the project was 1 billion yuan, and other investment amounts had nothing to do with Huaxin.

Mou Qizhong’s announcement of cooperation with Li Qingfeng yesterday was published in the newspaper this morning. That afternoon, Huaxin came out to refute the rumor.

This move immediately attracted the attention of the newspaper. After returning from Huaxin's press conference, they worked overtime that night to finish the manuscript, and it was put on the front page of the newspaper the next day.

The day before, Mou Qizhong was still promoting his cooperation with Li Qingfeng in a high-profile manner, and made the bold statement of "5 billion investment". However, he was slapped in the face by Huaxin officials the next day, and the scene was once very embarrassing.

The next morning, the content of today's newspaper quickly sparked heated discussions among the people.

People are talking about this on the streets and after dinner.

"Have you heard? That Mou Qizhong is causing trouble again, and this time he's dragging Li Qingfeng into it."

"That's right. It's all in the newspapers. Huaxin directly refuted the rumor, saying that they only provide technology and do not participate in management. Moreover, the investment is only 1 billion, not as much as Mou Qizhong said, 5 billion."

"Tsk tsk tsk, this Mou Qizhong is really bold, he even dares to use Li Qingfeng's name indiscriminately."

"Look, this is a slap in the face, and it makes a loud slapping sound."

Mou Qizhong, who had fooled those local tycoons who came to the capital yesterday and signed twenty or thirty investment intention contracts, was sitting in his office with a smug look on his face, thinking about how to fool those local tycoon bosses who came to the capital today.

Mou Qizhong is now feeling both happy and regretful.

I learned how to do business too late. If I had known that reputation was so valuable, I would have invested all the money myself when my reputation was still there.

If I had known this earlier, I should have done it this way. I would have directly found investors in China, and I would have been able to get the project done without spending a penny, and I would have been able to control the company.

However, before he could regret it for long, his secretary pushed the door open hastily, holding a newspaper in his hand, and said in a panic: "Mr. Mou, it's bad. Huaxin held a press conference last night and directly refuted the rumor."

"Refute a rumor? What rumor?"

Mou Qizhong was stunned. He took the newspaper and read the headline on the front page:
"Huaxin urgently refutes rumors: cooperation with NanDe is only a technical investment, not operation." (End of this chapter)
