Chapter 426: Money Covers the World

"Boss Li, I finally got you here!"

Duan Yufeng was overjoyed to see Li Dongling. He was afraid that Li Dongling would not be willing to come and support Founder's listing.

Li Dongling saw that almost all the senior executives of Founder had arrived, including Academician Wang Xuan.

"Mr. Li, let me introduce you. This is Zhang Xuanlong, the president of Founder Hong Kong City Company. Founder Malaysia was also established by Mr. Zhang. Founder's success today is inseparable from the hard work of Mr. Zhang!"

Duan Yufeng pointed at a well-dressed man standing nearby and said, his intention to win him over was almost evident in his words.

Founder is about to go public, but there are still undercurrents within the company. Duan Yufeng continues to win over various factions within Founder in an attempt to monopolize power, but there are also quite a number of people who support Academician Wang Xuan. Although the two sides have not yet fallen out, two major camps have already emerged.

A large part of Founder's overseas business is handled by Zhang Xuanlong, who also has considerable influence within Founder. Duan Yufeng naturally wants to win over Zhang Xuanlong.

But when it comes to Zhang Xuanlong's position, he obviously will not take sides easily. Like Li Dongling, he is actually unwilling to interfere too much in the dispute between the two major factions within Founder.

Seeing Li Dongling, Zhang Xuanlong seemed quite enthusiastic, "Mr. Li, I have heard of your name for a long time."

"Speaking of which, I have to thank Mr. Li for solving Jinshan's urgent problem. Otherwise, I would not be able to explain to Bojun!"

Zhang Xuanlong is also a major shareholder of Kingsoft. Many computer-related companies in Zhongguancun are more or less related to Zhang Xuanlong, otherwise he would not have the title of Zhongguancun Godfather. Of course, there are many people with this title...

He had helped Jinshan raise money several times before, but this time, Zhang Xuanlong searched for a long time but failed to find a big sponsor for Jinshan, which was rumored to be on the verge of collapse.

When Zhang Xuanlong was about to use his connections to get Soitong and Lenovo to invest in Kingsoft, news came from Kingsoft that Li Dongling had invested, which made Zhang Xuanlong feel relieved.

Li Dongling talked to Zhang Xuanlonghan for a few words, and Duan Yufeng said to Li Dongling solemnly, "This is Liang Botao, the president of Peregrine. Peregrine is also the sponsor of Founder's listing!"

"Welcome Mr. Li!"

Liang Botao extended his hand to Li Dongling with a smile on his face, "I have heard of Mr. Li's name for a long time. This time, I must stay in Hong Kong for a few more days. Let me also do my part as a good host!"

Soitong, Lenovo, and now Founder, were all listed by Liang Botao and Peregrine. He has always paid close attention to the inland industry, and how can the domestic technology industry in recent years be without Dongling Hi-Tech?

Compared with Solitaire and Lenovo, Liang Botao actually hopes to introduce Dongling Hi-Tech to be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. If this can be done, Liang Botao feels that Peregrine may create a new miracle for the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and even the Asian stock market!
"Ms. Ning Wenke, Dongling Hi-Tech's company in Hong Kong..."

"Women are as good as men. Everyone in Hong Kong knows the name of President Ning!"

Liang Botao, Zhang Xuanlong and others said with a smile that they didn't have much dealings with Ning Wenke, but they had all heard rumors about Ning Wenke more or less.

"Is this person... also with Mr. Li?" Zhang Yufeng saw Zhao Shinan standing aside with a strange look on his face, and asked Li Dongling.

After hearing what Zhang Yufeng said, Zhao Shinan's face became even uglier. In fact, the moment he saw Liang Botao, Zhao Shinan already felt something was wrong in his heart.

Originally, Zhao Shinan didn't want Ning Wenke, the person that all the wealthy families in Hong Kong wanted to marry, to be snatched away by someone else, so he wanted Li Dongling to "back down when facing difficulties."

Zhao Shinan thought that Li Dongling might have some background, but considering that this is a port city, according to the mentality of the people in the port city, people from the inland, whether they are bosses with some wealth coming to do business or ordinary people coming to the port city, are all here to make a living. As a local native, Zhao Shinan has a psychological advantage.

No matter who comes, a dragon must coil up and a tiger must lie down, and everyone must abide by the rules. Zhao Shinan feels that with the connections and resources he has had in Gangcheng for so many years, he is enough to control Li Dongling.

Another most important point is that he didn't want to let the Ning family's "fat meat" fall into the hands of others. If it was someone from a wealthy family in Hong Kong, Zhao Shinan would have given in, but when he saw Li Dongling coming from the inland, he still wanted to fight for it. Wine and sex can dazzle the eyes, and money can cover up one's desire. Sometimes when faced with huge benefits, even though they know there is a pit ahead, some people will still jump in...

But when he saw Liang Botao, Zhao Shinan felt a little disappointed. Liang Botao might not have any impression of him, but he recognized Liang Botao and knew his identity.

However, when he saw Liang Botao, Zhao Shinan still had some hope, but when he saw Liang Botao's attitude towards Li Dongling, he completely gave up.

Li Dongling glanced towards Zhao Shinan. The other party's image of a handsome gentleman could no longer be maintained, and he revealed an expression that was not much better than crying.

"I'm not familiar with this Mr. Zhao!"

In this situation, when Li Dongling said this, Duan Yufeng, Zhang Xuanlong and Liang Botao could all hear Li Dongling's attitude towards Zhao Shinan, but Li Dongling's second sentence made Liang Botao and others change their expressions.

"But this Mr. Zhao doesn't seem to welcome me to Hong Kong City!" "I don't know, Dongling Hi-Tech still needs to abide by his rules in Hong Kong City, right?"

No one knew what Zhao Shinan's expression was at the moment, but Liang Botao and Zhang Xuanlong's faces changed drastically. They all knew Dongling Hi-Tech's status in the inland. It was definitely well-known in Yanjing. Even the several wealthy families in Hong Kong who were praised by the public did not dare to say such words openly!
Especially next year, Hong Kong City will officially return. At this critical moment, Zhao Shinan dared to say such words. Liang Botao looked at him with a gloomy face. He didn't know whether this guy said it himself, or someone behind the scenes instigated it to "warn" Dongling Hi-Tech, or even had a deeper meaning, trying to put on a smear campaign against the inland side...

But no matter what kind of news it is, if it gets out, the port city will probably be shaken!
"I……"

Zhao Shinan's face was pale at this time. He had seen many storms and waves. He had acted recklessly in the past, but he had never paid any price. But now he felt that the situation seemed not to be good this time.

"Boss Li, let's go in first to avoid any accidents!"

Zhao Shinan was about to speak but was interrupted by Zhang Yufeng with a grim look on his face. Zhang Yufeng and his team were originally planning to go to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to do some handovers for the listing, but now they met Li Dongling. After hearing this, Zhang Yufeng decided to go back to the hotel first to find out some information.

Zhang Yufeng was not sure whether Zhao Shinan was targeting Li Dongling or trying to intimidate Founder Group. He had to be on guard. He could not tolerate the failure of Founder Group's listing. The consequences were not something he could afford!
After coming to the hotel suite as a temporary place to rest, Li Dongling will go to the villa prepared by Ning Wenke to rest at night. Dongling Hi-Tech is in Gangcheng and actually has some real estate used as office space.

Many domestic companies, including Lenovo and Solitaire, have purchased office buildings in Gangcheng. However, Lenovo suffered heavy losses this year and had to sell the luxurious office building in Gangcheng.

In recent years, housing prices in Hong Kong have skyrocketed. Dongling Hi-Tech has not yet started to purchase land, office buildings, etc. in Hong Kong and overseas. However, after Soros arrives next year, there will be many opportunities in the entire Southeast Asia, including Hong Kong.

"What are you going to do with Zhao Shinan?"

Ning Wenke made a cup of tea for Li Dongling. She had been to Hanxi many times and had a better understanding of Li Dongling's preferences. She knew that Li Dongling preferred tea to coffee.

Li Dongling's words just now made Ning Wenke feel that Li Dongling seemed to want to do something about this matter.

Looking at Ning Wenke, Li Dongling knew that this time, including what Dongling Hi-Tech was going to do in the future, there were many things that needed Ning Wenke to do, so he let Ning Wenke know.

"After I finish my work with Fangzheng the day after tomorrow, I will go visit Uncle Ning. This time I came to Hong Kong City, in addition to participating in the bell-ringing ceremony for Fangzheng Group's listing, I also have other things to do. If there are fewer evildoers, it will be easier to do things!"

Li Dongling said to Ning Wenke that he didn't care about the background of Zhao Shinan and the Zhao family company behind him.

But Hong Kong is different from the inland, or overseas markets, and they are completely different from the domestic market. Sometimes, you still need to show your fists, so that all the evil spirits won’t dare to come over and take a bite, only to be swallowed up without leaving anything behind.

Dongling Hi-Tech will have a future in Gangcheng, and with Gangcheng as its pillar, it will radiate to overseas areas, so it needs to make a lot of investments in Gangcheng. In a place like Gangcheng where all kinds of evil gather, as an outsider, if you show weakness at the beginning, there will be endless troubles in the future, and you will probably not be able to accomplish anything, as everyone wants to take a bite!
Li Dongling took a sip of tea and looked at the phone in the suite. Hong Kong is a big city, and people of different net worth and status, even if they live in the same city, many people have completely different circles. Two people from different classes may not meet each other in their entire lives. But it is also a small city, after all, the circle is so small, and many things will spread as soon as there is a rumor, and there are paparazzi appearing at the door of the hotel.

"Jingle Bell!"

The phone suddenly rang, and Li Dongling answered the call, "I'm Li Dongling!"

"Thank you, Manager Du, for your concern. I have already arrived in Hong Kong. I will go visit Manager Du after I finish my work with Fang Zheng!"

The first person to call was a deputy manager of Bank of China Hong Kong City Company. Bank of China knew what Li Dongling was going to do in Hong Kong City this time.

This was like a signal. A moment later, several more calls came in, two of which were from Yanjing.

……

Zhao Shinan had no mood for afternoon tea, horse racing, yachting, etc. He didn't even care about the little actress and hurried back to his mansion of more than 200 square meters.

A house of more than 200 square meters is indeed considered a luxury house in Hong Kong. The current housing prices in Hong Kong are more than twice that of New York. A house can easily cost tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Not to mention ordinary people, even Hong Kong celebrities have a hard time affording a house. Even Zhao Shinan is now carrying a mortgage. Not to mention him, even his father cannot come up with hundreds of millions of cash to pay the full amount at one time.

After making several phone calls, Zhao Shinan finally found a copy of Asia Weekly that was published some time ago. When he saw Li Dongling on the cover and thought of Li Dongling he met today, Zhao Shinan couldn't help but sit down on the ground with a dejected look on his face.

Before Zhao Shinan could sort out his thoughts, the landline phone in the room suddenly rang. After Zhao Shinan answered the call, he heard the content on the line and couldn't help but shout, "What? The Housing Department inspected and determined that the load-bearing walls of the building have safety hazards. They require the tenants to vacate the building and start repairs within a certain period of time?"

Zhao Shinan was confused. He didn't know why the house that he had rented out for several years after taking it over suddenly had problems.

But before he could react, Zhao Shinan's construction company and housing rental company called him one after another, and the Architectural Services Department, Civil Engineering Department, Road Permit Department and Drainage Services Department successively imposed penalties on his company.
