In the afternoon, Li Guangyu met with Jermaine Granger, general manager of Citibank Hong Kong, in his office.

After sitting down in the reception area, Li Guangyu said loudly: "Mr. Granger, your visit today really surprised me."

The current relationship between the Lee Consortium and the American consortium is not very friendly, and the relationship with First Citigroup has dropped to a freezing point. The Lee Consortium has been purchasing large quantities of Airbus aircraft over the years and has paid no attention to the Boeing they control.

Airbus has now become a strong rival of Boeing. The Lee Group supports Airbus so much, so it’s no wonder that Citigroup One is happy.

Since the vice president of Boeing came to Xiangjiang in 1984, Boeing executives have never come to Xiangjiang in the past few years. There is no market for Boeing here anymore.

Li Guangyu has never met with the core corporate executives of the American consortium in the past two years. Jermaine Granger chose to visit at such a time. The news revealed here is quite worth pondering.

Li Guangyu strongly believed that at this time, Granger's arrival had already reached the ears of the Japanese consortium.

Jermaine Granger said: "Mr. Li, thank you very much for taking the time to meet with me, and congratulations to your Xiangyu Culture Group for becoming the first listed company in Xiangjiang, and its market value is far ahead of the second-ranked Xiangjiang Electric Lighting

Group, I believe it won’t be long before Xiangyu Culture Group becomes the first group in Hong Kong with a market value exceeding HK$100 billion.”

This morning, Xiangyu Cultural Group completely shocked the attention of countless investment companies. Some institutions believe that the policies introduced by the Japanese government will cause Xiangyu Cultural Group to fall below the issue price. After all, the Japanese market has a relatively large impact on Xiangyu Cultural Group.

But after Xiangyu Culture Group was listed, they felt the enthusiasm of Xiangjiang shareholders. The issue price of Xiangyu Culture Group was HK$7.5 per share. In a short time, it exceeded HK$8. When the market closed in the morning, the price was stable at 8.36.

Hong Kong dollars, the group's total market value is as high as 83.6 billion Hong Kong dollars, far exceeding the 46.9 billion Hong Kong dollars of the second-ranked Heung Kong Electric Group.

At the same time, this is also the first listed company in Hong Kong with a market value of more than 10 billion US dollars, breaking many records in Hong Kong's stock market.

From here, we can see the powerful strength of the Li Group. This is just one of the many groups under the Li Group. If all the groups of the Li Group are listed, there will be no problem in their market value exceeding 300 billion US dollars.

After the listing, the Li Group will have a huge amount of cash in its hands. Such strength cannot be suppressed easily.

What makes their American consortium happy is that the Japanese consortium obviously also understands the threat of the Lee consortium and is now beginning to suppress the Li consortium. The purpose of Jermaine Granger's coming here this time is to hope that he can be in the current situation.

The situation is adding fuel to the fire. The more fierce the fight between the Lee Group and the Japanese Group, the more beneficial it will be for them, the American Group.

Li Guangyu responded: "I am very grateful to Mr. Granger for his concern for my industry. I also believe that Xiangyu Cultural Group can become a group with a market value of over 100 billion Hong Kong dollars.

There is a saying in our country that no matter what happens, you must go to the Three Treasures Palace. Today, Mr. Granger is here to congratulate me for more than just congratulating Xiangyu Cultural Group on its achievements in the stock market, right?"

Jermaine Granger smiled and said: "Mr. Li, this time I was entrusted by Johnny Stillman, chairman of First Citibank, to discuss cooperation with Mr. Li.

At present, Mr. Li is being pressed by the Japanese consortium, and on such an important day as today, they are suppressing your industries.

Mr. Li may wish to consider cooperating with us to jointly deal with the challenges of the Japanese consortium. As long as Mr. Li is willing, we will show sufficient sincerity."

Although the Li Consortium is currently being suppressed by the Japanese consortium, Li Guangyu has no intention of cooperating with the American consortium to suppress the Japanese consortium. The current situation is that the American consortium is the overlord. If Li Guangyu cooperates with them, the Japanese consortium will fall.

On that day, when he fell, his family could not withstand the full suppression of the American consortium.

The United States has a good plan. It is probably preparing itself to fight the Japanese consortium in the front office so that they can withdraw and watch the show. After the Lee consortium and the Japanese consortium decide the winner, they will come out to clean up the mess. Li Guangyu

How could it possibly be what they wanted?

Li Guangyu said: "I have always maintained a mutually beneficial and win-win attitude in dealing with all parties. It is a pity that such a friendly attitude has not received a good response. Your country's unilateral protection policy makes it difficult for outside companies to rest assured.

Regarding the development of the United States, I very much hope that your country can abandon its current targeted trade policy, so that it can promote the development of the global economy."

Jermaine Granger knows very well that what the Li Group fears most is this kind of rogue policy. The market in Xiangjiang is too small. The development of the Li Group mainly relies on overseas markets. If all countries and regions do something to the Li Group,

Without such restrictions, the Li Group would have no room for development.

He smiled and said: "Mr. Li, Mr. Stillman promised that as long as you are willing to cooperate with us, some targeted policies for the Li Group will soon be cancelled, and we will also promote the Li Group industry.

Developments in the U.S. Market.”

Li Guangyu didn't believe that First Citigroup would be so kind. The conditions here were definitely quite harsh. These American consortiums were all hungry wolves. They were not philanthropists. How could they be kind enough to help him seize the American market?

"Mr. Granger, what you said really makes my heart move. It's just that there is no free lunch in this world, and there is no pie in the sky. You have given such generous terms. I wonder what you want?"

"Mr. Li, I believe you are very clear about the situation facing the Li Consortium now. Your former allies are turning against you. With us on our side, I am afraid that the future prospects of the Li Consortium will not be too good.

Mr. Stillman considered that the Lee Consortium had a very happy cooperation with Boeing at the beginning, so he was willing to lend a hand to the Lee Consortium this time to prevent the Lee Consortium from declining.

We hope that Mr. Li can allow our First Citibank to inject capital into Mr. Li's Tianyu Financial Group, and that the Rockefeller family is willing to invest in Hengyu Supermarket Group, the Boston consortium is willing to invest in Phoenix Group, the Chicago consortium is willing to invest in Xiangjiang Communications Group, and the Cleveland consortium is willing to invest in Xingyuan

Group, the Ford consortium is willing to invest in the Bentley Group.

We hope to hold no less than 40% of the shares in these groups, and at the same time hope that these groups can be listed in the United States besides Bentley. In this way, we are a family, and our major consortiums will try their best to assist the Lee Group’s global development.”

Li Guangyu is quite angry in his heart. These American consortiums have such a huge appetite. In this way, the Li Consortium is no longer Li Guangyu’s Li Consortium. These shares will be given away and then listed in the United States. I’m afraid it won’t be long before these

The group is no longer his own.

These consortiums in the United States have been thinking about dividing his industry for a long time. They are simply arrogant. They really think that if Japan suppresses them, their own companies will not be able to develop.

Li Guangyu vowed in his heart that one day he would teach every consortium a huge lesson and let them know that the Li Consortium was not someone they could manipulate at will.
