But this turtle grandson just lets himself go completely!

It’s completely inconsistent with what I told him about him!

"Father, this, this is mainly because I saw that Zhao Hong didn't have any extreme reaction, so I thought there was nothing wrong." At this time, little Kadoorie said in a low voice.

In fact, he was jealous of Zhao Hong and a little indulgent of Ni Zhen, so he didn't try to stop him. He didn't expect that it would cause such a big disaster.

After hearing what his son said, Lao Kadoorie just wanted to slap him, but he didn't tell him about such a big thing.

"You, you!" Old Kadoorie pointed at his son and said, "Haven't you heard that a dog that bites doesn't bark? Arbitrarily arranging a billionaire, isn't this looking for death?"

When old Kadoorie saw his son with an annoyed look on his face, he was a little speechless now.

He is still very satisfied with his son. In fact, he does not blame him for this matter. The main reason is that after DreamWorks acquired Xiangjiang Hotel, his mentality was a bit unbalanced.

Besides, talking too much now will not help.

"Don't worry about the life and death of that boy from the Ni family from now on! This kind of person is a troublemaker." Old Kadoorie said through gritted teeth.

His impression of Ni Zhen was at its lowest point now, and he wished he could destroy his family. He didn't know how much loss this reckless move would bring to their family.

"Okay, father!", Xiao Kadoorie secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he was quite guilty about this matter. His little selfishness put the family at a disadvantage.

At the same time, he also hates Ni Zhen a lot. Everything is the fault of this man, and he himself will not admit his mistakes.

"What do you think we should do now?" Lao Kadoorie asked his son to think about it, so he asked him to refer to this matter.

Little Kadoorie straightened his hair, and then said: "Father, how about we also learn from DreamWorks and spend huge sums of money to build power stations in the mainland. We will invest as much as they invest. Furthermore, we can also reduce the electricity bill to the same level.

They are on the same level, or even lower..."

Old Kadoorie listened carefully to his son's suggestions and was not disappointed.

He looked at his son who had finished speaking.

"It's over?"

"No more!"

He saw his son looking at him expectantly and wanted to get his approval, but he was a little confused.

He couldn't help but ask: "Who is richer between us and DreamWorks?"

The son said without any doubt: "Of course it's DreamWorks!"

“Do we have a solid partner like Macheng Bank?”

"No!"

"How does our relationship with the mainland compare with DreamWorks?"

"What a waste!"

…

Old Kadoorie asked more than a dozen questions about how he compared with DreamWorks, and almost all of them were complete defeats. Seeing his son looking a little depressed, he continued: "What do you think our chances of winning are if we fight them head-on?"

Now Xiao Kadoorie is a little disappointed, thinking that their family has been developing for almost a century. It started from his grandfather in Shanghai, and later moved to Xiangjiang. Then his father inherited his grandfather's legacy and developed his family's business even stronger.

He is usually extremely proud. He considers himself to be one of the top wealthy families in Xiangjiang. Unexpectedly, compared with DreamWorks, his family's assets are around 70 to 80 billion. They can definitely rank among the top ten in Xiangjiang.

, but it’s really not good enough compared to DreamWorks.

Although I don’t know how much money DreamWorks has, it still has at least more than 300 billion Hong Kong dollars. This opponent is very powerful!

"Father, it's not like we don't have advantages!"

"Our family's focus is almost all on this, and for DreamWorks, the power company is only a small part of their company. They can't talk too much and focus on it. As long as we deal with it calmly, we will definitely beat them.

It’s a waste of money, and besides, if they lend money, we can lend it to them too.”

"I think HSBC and Standard Chartered are also very willing to lend to us. You must know that they are not willing to let Macheng Bank's hand stretch out longer and longer. As for the mainland, there is no need to worry. It doesn't matter if they don't have deep relationships. As long as you have money.

That’s fine, how can they refuse billions or tens of billions of dollars of investment?”

Little Kadoorie made some rebuttals to his father's questions.

Old Kadoorie was somewhat relieved after hearing his son's words. Although he did not consider the issue comprehensively, he still had his own thoughts.

After listening to his son's words, the old Kadoorie said: "What's the benefit of us fighting DreamWorks? Can we still defeat them?"

"As a businessman, when engaging in a project, we must first consider the consequences of failure and the benefits to us. What you said makes sense, but what are the benefits of doing this?"

"There is no benefit at all. If we do this, when will CLP Corporation be profitable? Ten years? Twenty years?"

"With my old face, I can get a loan from a bank, but they are not a charity. The borrowed money must be repaid. What if I can't repay it?"

"As for the quality of relations with the mainland, let's not talk about it. Even if we can invest in power stations, how much electricity can a small place like Xiangjiang use?"

"Not all of these resources will be wasted by then, but we don't have the ability to let some places in the mainland use our electricity!"

"To sum up, head-on confrontation will not pay off. It is better to make plans in advance. It would be great if they directly acquired our company regardless of their past grudges."

Old Kadoorie had plans to retreat ever since he learned about DreamWorks' arrangements. As long as the Kadoorie family had a large amount of capital, they were not afraid of not making money. If they were to fight with DreamWorks, they would just treat their own money as money.

I haven't been this hard-headed yet.

This is like Li Chaoren, who quickly let go of Zhao Hong as soon as he heard that Zhao Hong was going to make a big splash in the electric power industry. As a businessman, he only goes after money.

They abandon unprofitable projects like worn-out shoes!

Xiao Kadoorie was deeply touched after hearing his father's words. It turns out that fighting to the death is really a stupid thing, but he is secretly unwilling to accept it. His family has suffered twice in front of DreamWorks, which makes him a proud little heart.

How to bear it.

"Father, are we doing this to be a coward? Others still don't laugh at us?" Xiao Kadoorie said reluctantly.

"Haha, what shame do you need as a businessman! When we were rich and powerful, they would at most laugh at us secretly, but if we fight with DreamWorks and end up risking all our wealth and losing everything, they will laugh in our faces.

Do you believe that I spit on you?" Old Kadoorie snorted and laughed.

How much is dough worth to him?

The history of their family's development is not very glorious. It can be said that the history of the British-funded consortium in Xiangjiang is not glorious. During the primitive accumulation period, they stepped on many corpses and came to power. They worked hard to come to the Far East and came to

This is not to spread the gospel of God, but to break the bones and suck out the marrow.

For example, their family is relatively young. For example, the predecessor of Jardine Group came from Bloody Forest.

But now there are a few people who remember their past and are still respected by many people with no money and power. Who dares to expose their background to their faces?

Therefore, in Lao Kadoorie's view, the temporary reputation is not worth showing off.

Old Kadoorie told himself some of the things that these British-funded consortiums did when they came to Hong Kong, which made young Kadoorie refresh his three views a little bit.

At the end, Lao Kadoorie said with a sigh: "That is to say, times have changed. On the surface, it has become gentle and affectionate, but the law of human cannibalism will not change."

"You would think that there would be no attempters in the development process of DreamWorks. It's just that many of their secret operations failed. They are already flourishing and no one in Hong Kong can restrict their development."

This is something Lao Kadoorie cannot help but feel sorry for. If they had been charged with any crime twenty years ago, their British-funded consortium would have swallowed up all the assets of DreamWorks. They have done this kind of thing in the past.

Especially when the Hong Kong stock market was just established, they manipulated the stock market to harvest many potential Chinese companies. There were countless tragedies, but why did they do it!

They have always been philanthropists and help a lot of people every year!

"Father, if we don't go head-to-head with DreamWorks, what will happen to our power company? And what direction will our family develop in the future?" Kadoorie soon accepted his father's values, and the relationship started.

The future development direction of the Kadoorie family.

"Humph, we are going to slowly sell off the shares of CLP Corporation, and then move closer to supermarkets and real estate. We have a great advantage in this regard. You must know that we have a lot of existing properties and a lot of land.

, as long as these are developed, it will be money!" Old Kadoorie said solemnly.

In fact, they also have a real estate company, but it has never been too big. Mainly because he thinks the risk is very high and it is not as stable as his power company, but now he can't control so much.

Moreover, he has been coveting the huge profits from real estate for more than a day or two. Now he is forced to make this determination. He is still very confident in developing in real estate. The Kadoorie family has quite deep connections in the government.

Supermarkets are also a project that he is optimistic about. Especially when he sees Li Chaoren's supermarkets opening one after another, he knows that there are a lot of profits. Besides, this is also a kind of revenge on Li Chaoren!

He thought he had a good relationship with Li Chaoren, but he didn't know about DreamWorks' overall plan until after the acquisition of Hong Kong Electric was completed at the press conference. If Li Chaoren didn't know anything about it, he wouldn't believe it.

But Li Chaoren didn't tell him a word. You can imagine what's fishy in this. He could imagine that as long as he failed to fight hard, Li Chaoren would definitely not mind stepping on him.

The hearts of these successful people are just as dirty as his!

He himself has done this kind of thing many times. With a little analysis, he can smell the conspiracy. He is almost eighty years old and has never seen anything before. Li Chaoren is still playing tricks in front of him.

A little bit.

He is really true to Li Chaoren. His family's current assets are more than Li Chaoren's. His mentality is different when it comes to opponents of the same level. What else can he say, if he doesn't do it first, it will be over.

After the DreamWorks press conference, Zhao Hong still hoped that the Kadoorie family would take some action, but unfortunately they did not take any action.

This made Zhao Hong very depressed, why not be just right?

Oh, it’s not that they haven’t taken any action. The Kadoorie family announced that they will enter the supermarket industry, announcing that they will invest 10 billion Hong Kong dollars in the next five years to expand the scale of supermarkets, and are determined to become a formalized large-scale supermarket company.

When Zhao Hong saw this situation, he knew that they were cowarded and were preparing to run away.

Li Chaoren was a little depressed when he found out about this. This old Kadoorie is really a coward. It's really stupid to take it out on him if he can't afford to offend DreamWorks!

"...What do you mean by the Kadoorie family? They've already beaten us to the doorstep, but he still has the heart to extend his tentacles into the supermarket industry. Isn't he going to compete with us? Do you really think I'm easy to bully or something?"

Li Chaoren discussed this matter at a high-level meeting of the company, and it really made him sick.
