Whether it's Jackie Ma or Liu qiangxi, it's clear that there is no reason for the world to come out of the sky. It depends on the accumulated time of quiet efforts and no one pays attention to it.

No one can succeed casually!

Fangshan Restaurant, with mountains on its back and water on its face, and a veranda in its arms, has a beautiful scenery. The hall is decorated with dragon and Phoenix as the theme, decorated with large-scale colorful palace lamps, with bright yellow tablecloth, napkins, chair covers, and tableware with the words "eternal life" imitating Qing Dynasty palace porcelain or silver ware. The display is simple and elegant, with rich palace characteristics.

Andy looked at the table full of "man Han Quan Xi" palace dishes, and smiled at Li Qiang, the boss of the first tour who invited him: "man Han Quan Xi is well-known for a long time, and it is indeed worthy of its name."

Li Qiang said with a smile, "these dishes are all made of rare materials such as eight treasures of mountain, eight treasures of sea, eight treasures of bird and eight treasures of grass. They are made of techniques such as barbecue, stewing, boiling and frying, which can be described as the essence of North and South flavors, and are rich and colorful. A complete full-length table can only be eaten in four to six meals. Therefore, these are all "Manchu and Han people's selection" meals. If you eat one meal, you can enjoy the delicacy of Manchu and Han people's selection. I hope you like it. "

"Thank you for your trouble." Andy nodded to each other with a smile.

"Please --"

Li Qiang smiles and reaches out for a sign. Andy and a modified cheongsam in Navy color, irregular improved design and profound stability bring a touch of fashion and noble temperament. Li Xiaoying, who is exquisite in curve, tastes it.

Li Qiang, who is well versed in the dining culture, will not start to talk about business. Most of the time, he will talk about the topic of setting off the atmosphere. For Andy and Li Xiaoying, he introduced the practice and some interesting allusions of the classic dishes of "man Han Quan Xi".

In fact, in general, in the dinner of the Chinese dynasty, you don't need to spend too much time talking about business. It's more effective to find an opportunity to talk a little during or after the dinner. In the dinner, it's better to concentrate on winning the recognition of the other party. As long as the other party can see their sincerity and sincerity, they can succeed naturally.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Li Qiang looked at the half glass of wine in front of him. He was full of thoughts. What he drank was absolutely bitter wine. However, he couldn't help it. Who made it here? It's sour, sweet, bitter and spicy. It's just like drinking water. He knows how cold and warm it is. So, he doesn't hesitate any more.

"Mr. Smith, do you have any new ideas and opinions on the future cooperation of Universal Studios? If there is anything unsatisfactory, we can sit down and talk about it slowly..."

"Oh?"

Andy, who is enjoying the delicious food, hears the other party finally talking about the business. He smiles and responds. He puts down his chopsticks, wipes his chin with a napkin, takes a drink from a goblet of mineral water, clears his throat, and looks at Li Qiang with a smile and says: "since this project was reported, he has been under review until now, and there is no final approval And I heard that it seems to have risen to the perspective of cultural strategic security, and there is also the news that we need to reduce the scale of investment and add more elements of China.

In particular, the news that you want to occupy an absolute dominant position and forbid the construction of theme parks all over the world has spread out, which makes me have to reconsider the huge risks brought by this. And now we are talking about more, better and better, whether it can be approved or not, don't you think? "

To be honest, Andy's plan for Universal Studios to settle in Beijing is mainly a coincidence of time. It's just in time to catch up with the city and focus on the development of the same boat area. Therefore, as soon as the news is released, it attracts all forces and large enterprises. It's been wildly hyped. You should know that during this period of time, with the development of the global project, it's only a matter of time In the field of single real estate, almost all the stocks of companies with projects in the same boat and land are wildly popular.

Hearing Andy's words, Li Qiang felt speechless. Indeed, maybe they were blinded by the interests. Before the final conclusion was reached, they began to jump up and down to distribute the interests. Now think about it, it's really ridiculous.

You know, since the news that Disneyland will be settled in the magic capital in 2005, theme parks all over the country have blossomed. However, problems have arisen. According to Li Qiang, at present, there are more than 1500 billion yuan of funds locked up in more than 2500 theme parks, 70% of which are in a state of loss, 20% of which are flat, only about 10% of which are profitable, and more than two thirds of which are unable to recover their investment.

Now it seems that they are too confident and optimistic. Let alone the negotiation with globegroup. Now it seems that they may not even be able to pass the level at home.

"Mr. Smith, it's too much to worry about. After all, it's an investment involving ten billion yuan. There's no big problem in the project passing..."

Listening to Li Qiang's strong comfort, Andy looks at each other with bright eyes, shakes his head and chuckles, "no one can guarantee that, can't he? What's more, if according to your conditions, most of the money you put in after taking the lead is bank loans. If the bank refuses, even if it doesn't, what do you use as a mortgage for the interests of Universal Studios?

Sorry, no one is a fool. Since the situation is not clear, and even the probability of failure is increasing, then I don't need to waste time and human and material resources to continue to talk blindly. Let's talk about it later. Are you optimistic? ""No, no, Mr. Smith, I'm afraid there are some misunderstandings in this. Indeed, there were many domestic investment enterprises in the name of theme park to get land at a low price, and then they asked the local government to approve relevant residential buildings and commercial real estate as their additional compensation. This also led to the slow approval of the state, many theme park projects have been withdrawn.

But our cooperation this time is different. You and we have prepared a lot of cash to start the project, not to enclose the land, which is essentially different from other theme park projects. "

" ha ha, however, we invested US $1 billion in the global film industry in advance, and you only have 5 billion RMB in cash, but you have to occupy the absolute dominant position. Sorry, I really can't see your sincerity, and I believe that no one will agree with this kind of cooperation, are you right? " Andy looks at Li Qiang with a smile, and asks back calmly.

"Cough..." Li Qiang smiles and coughs to cover up his embarrassment. "Isn't there any land?"

As soon as he said this, Andy's face slightly changed and his expression was cold. Even Li Xiaoying on the side showed a little frown. "Ha ha ha, I always thought that the land was the property that the joint venture company paid for. It seems that we didn't make it clear. I will reconsider it."

Li Qiang was stunned at first, and then noticed the coldness of the two people. He didn't know whether they really or falsely said: "the cooperation between us is not our investment and land and your investment and franchise?"

"Ha ha..." Andy chuckles, shrugs and says, "maybe it was wrong from the beginning, but it's still urgent to correct now. Thank you for Mr. Li's hospitality. I've had a good meal..."

The expression on Li Qiang's face was a little embarrassed. He forced out a smile and wanted to keep it.

However, Andy, who has already felt that "talk with a duck, talk without speculating for half a sentence", is not in the mood to continue to talk with the other party. With Li Xiaoying and Li Qiang, he said with a slight smile that he would not return to the car and walk away.

Li Qiang stood on the steps in front of the vermilion gate, looking at the red tail light in the distance, squinting his eyes slightly, his eyes twinkling, and finally turned into a sigh.

"He seems to want to spoil the cooperation!"

In the carriage, Li Xiaoying frowned slightly, pondered for a while, then turned to Andy.

"Well." Andy nodded his head expressionless, then said indifferently, "it seems that the time is not right. I'm afraid this project will be abandoned!"

Andy knows, I'm afraid it means the above, otherwise the other side will never say that about land. After all, at the beginning of the cooperation, it has been said that the land of theme park will be purchased from the local in the name of the joint venture, which belongs to the property of the new joint venture, rather than the equity of the Chinese side.

When things come here, it seems that this project is really going to be put on hold for a while. There is no way. Some things in China can never be easily understood just by looking at the surface.

He is also on the wrong side. If he continues to push forward the project and is finally slapped back, he will lose his face and lose his big hair. Now he can undoubtedly push his way out of the project with dignity.
