Hong Kong 1980: The Savage Era

Chapter 112 [Everyone is unhappy]

Luo Qihong smiled slightly and said, "I plan to make a little money and then stop. The Connor family is not the king of charter ships."

The reason why Luo Qihong spoke the truth was that he had no direct conflict with Lin Zuhui. To be honest, it might be a good thing for them to have some affection for each other.

Lin Zuhui nodded. Luo Qihong's idea coincided with his. As for what price to start selling, he did not intend to ask a junior for his opinion. The current stock price was still some distance away from what he expected.

"I heard from Rocky that you want to sell the Paramount Company under your company. What is the selling plan?" Lin Zuhui asked with a smile as he looked at Luo Qihong.

At this time, Luo Qihong glanced at Lin Luoqi and said with a smile, "According to the market price, but it will take a while. Now I will continue to increase assets for Paramount."

"I've found out that the current market value of Paramount is 4.3 million yuan, but its net assets are just over 1.6 million yuan. It would be very difficult to find a buyer based on the market value, or even no one would be willing to take over." Lin Zuhui said with a faint smile.

Luo Qihong said, "Then take your time to look for it. There is a lot of money in the stock market. The net assets of Paramount will continue to increase, and the market value in the future may exceed the 10 billion yuan mark."

"It's good for young people to be ambitious, but it's safer to go slower." Lin Zuhui picked up a piece of taro and said, "If you want to sell it, you can tell Rocky."

Luo Qihong smiled and said, "Paramount Company will definitely sell it at the market price. Otherwise, I would rather keep it in my own hands. There is no need to sell it."

Lin Zuhui said that Paramount Company was not worth that price and wanted to "pick up a bargain". Luo Qihong immediately refused. There was no need to say anything if he couldn't offer a price. He was not afraid of Lin Zuhui causing trouble, he just wanted to avoid offending him.

If someone comes to bully him, Luo Qihong will of course fight back.

Xu Jiawen immediately tried to smooth things over and said, "Let's put this matter aside for now. Our protagonists today are not you, but Ah Hong and Bing Jun."

In fact, seeing that Luo Qihong was so strong and fought back and forth with Lin Zuhui, Li Yude and his wife knew that he was not a coward, and they were immediately more satisfied.

After the dinner
Luo Qihong came to the Central Pier alone to enjoy the sea breeze and blow away his depressed mood.

Did Lin Zuhui really like Paramount, or did Lin Luoqi persuade Lin Zuhui? Luo Qihong couldn't guess, but he was sure that Lin Zuhui was testing his attitude and the price he wanted.

In Luo Qihong's opinion, the Lin family is not a suitable buyer. He will not sell the Paramount Company to the Lin family no matter what. Just from the test at today's banquet, it can be seen that Lin Zuhui cannot afford a high price.

As for inviting the Li family specifically, perhaps it was to curry favor with them. Luo Qihong didn't quite understand what Lin Zuhui meant.

Especially after Xu Jiawen's persuasion, Lin Zuhui stopped. Luo Qihong didn't believe that Xu Jiawen's status was so high, otherwise there would be no Lin Luoxun brothers, so it was very likely a drama arranged in advance.

"There are a lot of tricks in the city, I want to go back to the countryside." Luo Qihong remembered a popular Internet phrase from his previous life.

"Go back to the countryside? Do you want to go back to the New Territories?" A familiar voice came from behind.

Luo Qihong looked back. The dim street lights prevented him from seeing clearly, but he knew the identity of the person from his clothes and figure.

So Luo Qihong smiled and said, "Didn't you go home with your daddy and mommy? Why are you still here?"

The person who came was Li Bingjun. She did not answer Luo Qihong immediately, but slowly approached the railing, looked at the dim lights in the urban area of ​​Kowloon, and said, "I don't want to go back so early. My dad and mom will definitely nag me. Why not take a walk in Central?"

"Actually, like you, I didn't know in advance that this was such a banquet. If I had known, I wouldn't have wanted to come." Li Bingjun had lived in a wealthy family since childhood and had some ability to read people's expressions. Therefore, she could see Luo Qihong's reluctance at the dinner table.

"I hate people creating these surprises, so Rocky's banquets will be included in my blacklist in the future." Luo Qihong said calmly, with a firm tone in his voice.

"It seems that I am an annoying person." Li Bingjun said with a wry smile. In fact, Li Bingjun had very weak feelings towards Luo Qihong, but her parents were quite satisfied with Luo Qihong, so she was willing to have more contact with him.

"I have never hated beautiful women. We can be friends, but if we become boyfriend and girlfriend, you will regret it because I like beautiful women, not just one." Luo Qihong said lightly.

Li Bingjun's face changed slightly. She understood what Luo Qihong meant. Even if they got married, he would most likely have a mistress.

Li Bingjun's parents are loving, Li Yude has never cheated on her, and Cheng Nan has a gentle personality, so Li Bingjun finds it hard to accept.

Considering that the family business urgently needs transformation, Li Bingjun still wants to get real information from Luo Qihong.

"Whether you like beautiful women or not has nothing to do with me." Li Bingjun said, "Just now you said we are friends, so can you answer me a question sincerely?"

"Miss Li, you still want to ask about real estate, right? Actually, what I said in the private room is true. Real estate is currently priced high. What if the price does not increase, or even decreases? What do you think your family should do?" Luo Qihong continued, "I'm not lying. The price of industrial land in Kowloon Bay has already dropped a bit. This is not an isolated case."

Li Bingjun sighed, "The market share of American ginseng is decreasing. I am worried that it will not last long. There may even be serious losses. I need to transfer assets urgently."

"I think Lin Zuhui must have persuaded you to enter the real estate industry and even pulled you onto his chariot." Luo Qihong seemed to have suddenly figured out something.

"Yes! This was initiated by Xu Jiawen. My dad has been tempted. Lin Luoqi also suggested acquiring the Paramount Company from your side." Li Bingjun briefly recounted the matter. Of course, she was against it because Lin Zuhui was such a shrewd person. How could he share the profits with them? There must be a conspiracy.

"To be honest, following Lin Zuhui is not a wrong choice. As long as you don't oppose him, you should get the benefits that belong to you. However, if you want to take over Paramount Company, you can't get it without 2 million in cash." Luo Qihong laughed, and his smile seemed a little cunning.

Li Bingjun stopped talking. She agreed with what Luo Qihong said. The worst thing was that the Li family had no better choice for the time being, otherwise they would not have sought the skin of a tiger.

Luo Qihong suddenly had an idea for revenge and said with a smile, "I do have a suggestion, but should I tell you?"

"What suggestions?" Li Bingjun asked with a frown. She knew that Luo Qihong was not an easy person to deal with.

"What do you think of Lin Luoqi and Xu Jiawen?" Luo Qihong asked.

Li Bingjun was silent for a moment, and then said, "Xu Jiawen is very proficient in finance, but his abilities in other aspects are average. However, Xu Jiawen thinks too highly of himself, and Lin Luoqi is similar to an ordinary second-generation heir and still needs to grow."

"I have good news for you. Xu Jiawen and Lin Luoqi, mother and son, are planning to set up their own business, but they are not strong enough now." Luo Qihong said with a smile.

Li Bingjun thought about it carefully and asked hurriedly, "Do you want me to cooperate with Lin Luoqi and Xu Jiawen?"

"Your Li family needs experience, but Xu Jiawen and Lin Luoqi have backers. Even if something goes wrong, there are people to cover for you. As long as you keep some tricks up your sleeve, I think you won't suffer any loss."

In order to convince Li Bingjun, Luo Qihong explained the reason for doing so. "In fact, I was the one who brought Lin Zuhui and his team into the acquisition of the electric light company. Now, not only do they not thank me properly, but they are also attacking my Paramount Company. So I want to do something to make them unhappy."
