Chapter 508 Hello, Pony!
It was almost evening when Li Xiaofan and his party arrived at Yunding.
When we almost reached the top of the mountain, there was a layer of mist on the top of the mountain. It is surrounded by mountains, overlapping mountains, green trees, luxuriant flowers and grass, like a fairyland.
The "No. 1 Hotel in Genting" where Li Xiaofan and the others settled in is a five-star international class hotel towering 6,000 feet above the sea level.
Although it is called a five-star hotel, Li Xiaofan feels that the facilities inside are relatively simple, the room area is not large, and there are few channels on the TV. It is far inferior to the luxury of five-star hotels in the mainland.
Li Xiaofan thought to himself that maybe Genting Group did not want everyone to spend a lot of time in the guest rooms, but try to spend as much time as possible in the casino inside.
In the evening, Lin Guotai's reception dinner was arranged at the oldest Genting Liyuan Hotel.
Li Xiaofan seemed a little disappointed with the Western-style dinner hosted by the Southeast Asian gambling king's family, which he originally thought would be very luxurious.
Lin Guotai, who once studied in the UK, has a simple British style, even for dinner.
Li Xiaofan chose mushroom soup as the first course, and then came a plate of vegetable salad and freshly baked French bread.
Lin Guotai put a few drops of olive oil on the plate, soaked the bread with olive oil, and ate it with gusto.
The next main dish can be steak or salmon.
After finishing the main course, a dessert is served.
Finally, serve coffee or black tea with some pastries.
The dinner arranged by the gambling king's family was actually that simple.
Li Xiaofan was shocked.
When Lin Guotai went to the bathroom, Li Xiaofan quietly asked his assistant, Director Zhao Lixuan:
"Mr. Zhao, does your director Lin eat like this every day for dinner?"
"Yes, Director Li, if there are no guests, our Director Lin's dinner will be simple. No matter how distinguished guests come to visit, our Director Lin will arrange such a dinner. Director Li, are you full? If you still need it, Can I ask the kitchen to cook a few more dishes for you?”
"No, we are full!"
After eating steak and bread, as well as vegetable salad and dessert, Li Xiaofan was indeed full.
It was just the simplicity of Du Wang's dinner that surprised him.
This may be his way to maintain health, Li Xiaofan thought.
After dinner, I drank coffee and looked at the night view of Yunding outside the window. The cool breeze was blowing, which made me feel very refreshed.
"I finally live a life without air conditioning..." Li Xiaofan laughed.
"Director Li, if you are free next time, you can come to Genting for vacation." Lin Guotai said with a smile.
Li Xiaofan asked casually: "Director Lin, how is your Lixin cruise project? Is the profit okay?"
"Overall, it's not bad. However, due to the impact of the Asian financial crisis this year, I estimate that this year's and next year's annual reports will be ugly. Director Li, compared with your Yifan Venture Capital Fund, my cruise project cannot compete with those high-end investments you have invested in." Technology project comparison!”
The valuations of high-tech projects such as Nvidia and Howey invested by Yifan No. 1 and No. 2 Venture Funds have increased several times, and they are currently preparing to be listed on Nasdaq. Once listed, the valuation will increase several times, and more importantly, dividends can be cashed out.
"Director Lin, I currently plan to launch the No. 3 venture capital fund and plan to invest in a silicon port project on Hong Kong Island, which mainly includes an eight-inch wafer fab project, as well as a world-class semiconductor design center and design software project... …I wonder if your group is interested in continuing to participate?”
…
After listening to Li Xiaofan's project introduction in detail, Lin Guotai expressed strong interest.
But Lin Guotai finally said that the entire Genting Group is currently still at the helm of his father. Li Xiaofan’s new project has a large investment, and he needs to ask his old father for instructions and report before giving feedback to Li Xiaofan.
…
Two days later, Li Xiaofan, Lin Muqiu and others flew from Singapore to Shenzhen to inspect the Shenzhen High-tech Industrial Development Zone in Nanshan District.
The Shenzhen High-tech Industrial Development Zone, which was planned and constructed last year, has an initial planned area of 11.5 square kilometers. It is one of the six pilot parks under the Ministry of Science and Technology’s development strategy of “building a world-class high-tech park” and is currently being developed in full swing.
At Shenzhen Airport, Yang Feiyan, who had flown in from Shanghai in advance, picked up Li Xiaofan and his party who had flown in from Singapore.
After getting on the bus, Yang Feiyan reported: "Director Li, I have contacted the Shenzhen High-tech Zone Management Committee according to your instructions. After knowing that you are coming to visit, their management committee attaches great importance to it. Tomorrow morning, their High-tech Zone Management Committee will The top leader of the committee will lead the main responsible persons of investment promotion, land and planning and other departments. The person in charge personally received us and accompanied us to inspect the land. In addition, the director of the Shenzhen High-tech Zone Administrative Committee Office just contacted me this afternoon and said that they would like to arrange for the city leaders to meet with us and host a banquet for our inspection team tomorrow afternoon to ask for your opinions. , I wonder if you have time?”
Li Xiaofan waved his hand and said: "Feiyan, tomorrow we will meet with the leaders of the High-tech Zone Management Committee. Forget it with the city leaders. Don't disturb them. Let's talk about it next time. I have arrangements for tomorrow afternoon and evening. I want to Meet a few people..."
"Okay, then I will reply to the leaders of their high-tech zone management committee office later."
Halfway to the hotel, Yang Feiyan couldn't help but asked curiously: "Director Li, our group already has its own industrial bases in the United States, Singapore, Shanghai, and Beijing, and is currently planning and developing the Silicon Harbor Park project in Hong Kong. Tomorrow we will inspect the Shenzhen High-tech Zone. Do we want to build another project here in the Shenzhen High-tech Zone?”
"Yes, Feiyan, you are right. We are planning to build a park within a park, a new industrial base project in Shenzhen Hi-tech Zone." Li Xiaofan said with a smile.
"Mr. Li, our battle line is so long. We already have bases in Beijing and Shanghai in China, and Hong Kong next door is planning a new park. Why do we have to come to Shenzhen, which is so close, to build an industrial base?" Yang Feiyan still felt a little puzzled.
"Haha, it is because it is so close that we want to build a project in Shenzhen. Our industrial base in Shenzhen Hi-tech Zone will provide supporting services for the planned Hong Kong Island Silicon Port Park in the future. Due to some special reasons, considering the restrictions on importing the most advanced semiconductor equipment, foreign exchange controls and other factors, we have to temporarily put the eight-inch wafer project led by Dr. Zhang in Hong Kong Island. All of our current projects are to serve Academician Ni's Huaxia Core Plan. In the future, most of our industrial focus will return to the mainland to serve the rapidly growing domestic demand..."
Li Xiaofan's words made Yang Feiyan and Lin Muchu seem to understand, as if they were very high-end.
The next morning, after Li Xiaofan and his party inspected the Shenzhen Hi-Tech Zone, they had lunch with the management committee leaders and returned to the Nanhai Hotel where they stayed.
The Nanhai Hotel where Li Xiaofan and his party stayed. Its streamlined shape, like a sail, sailing on the sea, is very eye-catching. It is the first five-star hotel in Shenzhen and the originator of five-star hotels in Shenzhen.
When they entered the lobby of the Nanhai Hotel, a young man wearing glasses and looking very gentle was waiting for Li Xiaofan in the lobby bar.
Li Xiaofan recognized the glasses guy at a glance, and he took the initiative to greet him: "Hello, Pony!"
