"The matter is not that serious yet, I just suffered a loss this time. I believe that the mainland would rather ask us for 10 million US dollars than keep an empty promise. After all, what the mainland lacks most now is foreign exchange. By the way, we also need to make some preparations for this trip to the mainland, including the talents I recruited in the United States before, and we have to bring them with us this time. We are not familiar with the hotel business, and we want to bring it with us. The mainland understands that how to build a hotel must be done by professional personnel, so the number of people we go to the mainland this time should not be too small, at least it must be a small team," Li Mingbao said. "The size of a small team is okay, but I don't know if we can gather so many people. Our family can go there, that is, me, you, and your eldest brother. As for your mother and the others, there is no need to go this time. After all, we are talking about business, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. You have to come back in a hurry this time, and you have to leave again in less than two days. You have to say hello to Uncle Liu and the others about this. The United Cinemas is currently under construction, so you have to leave now. Don't worry about it. Uncle Liu must be angry. We need to contact him about the flight, otherwise our transportation will be a problem." Li Guangxin also made plans. "Don't be so troublesome. Leave the transportation aspect to me. Since you are the big boss who invested in the past, we naturally have to confirm our status as the big boss. If you take transportation from the mainland, you might be looked down upon by them. . Let¡¯s go directly by private plane instead of entering the mainland from Hong Kong. This will also paralyze the British government in Hong Kong. They don¡¯t want people with our status to go to Hong Kong carelessly, unless we follow the example of the Huo family. That way, we should avoid the trouble. It would be much easier to fly from Hong Kong to Taiwan, then from Taiwan to Japan, and then from Japan to Yanjing. That would be much easier," Li Mingbao said. In fact, there are no direct flights from Hong Kong to the mainland in these years. As long as you take a plane, it is basically the same route. Don't think that you can fly directly to Guangzhou from Hong Kong across a river. That is impossible. At least after the agreement is signed, these civilian equipment will be opened. But now the two sides are still arguing, where will there be time to take care of these things? In addition to making it clear that families and individuals with ties to the mainland can directly pass through customs from Hong Kong to the other side, ordinary people who want to go to the mainland, except for smuggling, it is best to go through Japan in an upright way. It is also a strange thing to say. Whether it is Hong Kong, Macau, or Taiwan, there is still no broad channel for direct transportation to the mainland. On the contrary, Japan, its old rival, has better connections with the mainland than outsiders. Know much more. The relationship between the two parties had been normalized in 1972. To be honest, the people who have dealt with the mainland the most in these years are the Japanese. The relationship is quite close, and they have a lot of machinery and equipment that the mainland needs. Basically they are imported from Japan. This has also resulted in a large market for the machinery industry in mainland China, which is dominated by Japanese products. That¡¯s why Li Mingbao said to take a plane to Japan, and then from Japan to the mainland. After all, Japan is a very capable country in East Asia, and its life has been quite prosperous in recent years. Their planes fly to all corners of the world. It is indeed nothing unusual for Li Mingbao to fly from Japan to the mainland. things. But Li Guangxin asked in surprise: "Private jet? Has the aircraft you ordered before been ready? How could it be so fast?" Indeed, Li Guangxin asked this question quite reasonably. It is not surprising that the Li family now owns a private jet. Many families in Hong Kong own private jets. This is not surprising. After all, not every region has air traffic control as strict as the mainland, especially in Hong Kong. , as long as you have money, private jets are not a big deal. If you can afford it, you can drive one. There are not many other requirements. And last year, in order to avoid taxes, Li Mingbao not only ordered a private jet in the United States, but also ordered his own yacht and villa. Ready-made things like villas can be bought with money, but items like yachts and airplanes must be made now as long as they are not second-hand goods. Although this time is not long, it cannot be said to be how short it is. It is only now. After years of effort, it is naturally impossible to build a private jet so quickly. Even if it is to jump in line, it will take time. That¡¯s why Li Guangxin asked this question. If Li Mingbao has a private jet now, then Li Mingbao will definitely take it when he comes back this time. My own plane came back, but not this time. "How can it be so fast? A private jet does not have to be your own. After all, I am also a customer of American Express in the United States. For American Express, not to mention private jets, even large jets, as long as you need it, He can get it for you. When your own plane is not available, you can spend some money to hire a private one.?Airplanes are not that unusual. " Li Mingbao said. After hearing Li Mingbao's explanation, Li Guangxin finally understood. Although Li Guangxin was not very satisfied with such a pretentious move, he also knew that Li Mingbao was actually doing this for the sake of his family. Although the mainland is not satisfied with this pretentious behavior, I have a certain understanding, but as the saying goes, hearing is false and seeing is believing. If the Li family took a flight to Yanjing with other people for this first meeting, to be honest, the Li family would be at the top. In my heart, my senses may not be so high. On the contrary, if I fly a private plane, it doesn't matter whether the private plane belongs to the Li family, but it is a fantasy for the mainland that the Li family can use a private plane. , Invisibly, the strength of the Li family will also be improved by several levels in the mainland. In the mainland at this stage, everyone who can take a special plane is a big boss. Money or not does not have much influence. The key is to have power. To a certain extent, the Li family has such qualifications and is on an equal footing with those in the mainland. People rely on their clothes and their saddles. The Li family's private jet is the Li family's clothes. After going to the mainland, Li Mingbao started preparations. First of all, he had to tell his elder brother about this matter. After all, the hotel industry was not what Li Mingbao wanted to do. The reason why he came up with such a thing was just to give People in the family are looking for something to do, especially the eldest brother. His career needs to start from the hotel, and the rate of return in this industry is quite good. There is no reason not to control it in his own hands. After that, he will have to work with Uncle Liu. Say hello, I have been in the United States for a long time, and it happened to be during the renovation of the United Cinemas. It is outrageous that Chairman Li Mingbao was not involved in such a major event. After I come back, it won't be long before I go to the mainland again. , it is clear that Uncle Liu is treated as a coolie. If Li Mingbao doesn't give an explanation, who knows whether Uncle Liu will give up and quit? Although it is unlikely, Li Mingbao still has to respect the old man, right? Next, we have to bring the hotel management talents recruited in the United States to Hong Kong, and then fly to the mainland together. This matter has actually been mentioned during the recruitment, but it is not allowed to happen in advance. If they are not allowed to go to Hong Kong first, Li Mingbao will reimburse the air ticket anyway. If they don't go, it will be in vain. In addition, going with the boss this time will allow these guys to deal with people on the mainland before talking about business. No matter where you are doing business, local relationships must be maintained. This problem is not a problem at all for Yang Zhi, who graduated from the business school. Therefore, as soon as he enters the role, every consideration of Yang Zhi will be considered. If you need to serve your work, you may be able to take advantage of the boss's presence to discuss benefits with relevant people in the mainland. In this way, if you really open a hotel in the future, the public relations expenses will be reduced a lot. For an industry like the hotel, the public relations expenses will be much lower. It is often the bulk of expenditures. This is already understood in the United States. Although Yang Zhi is not familiar with mainland China, for a multi-generational Chinese, the impression of mainland China is quite vague. Maybe even his father¡¯s impression of mainland China is quite vague. Not much of an impression either. But generally speaking, public relations are needed everywhere. Even if the mainland is different from the United States, there is nothing inappropriate in making such a plan. After Li Mingbao summoned Yang Zhi and his team, Yang Zhi began to truly enter the role of hotel manager. If it was like a vacation in Los Angeles before, but now that Li Mingbao has confirmed the news of opening a hotel, Yang Zhi and his team must open the entire hotel in the shortest possible time, at least before meeting with the mainland executives. They have to get out the planning document, otherwise when the actual negotiations come, they will just come up with something that has no highlights at all. I believe that Li Mingbao will not hesitate to kill them, the top students of the business school, and replace them with something new. Batch people. After all, the price given by Li Mingbao is quite good. If these people are not sorry for their price, no one can say anything if Li Mingbao kills them. Behind them, there are definitely a large number of people who need the job given by Li Mingbao. For Chinese Americans who are very American, as long as they give money, let alone go to a continent that is often criticized by American newspapers as dangerous, even if they go to Africa, which is really war-torn, then They are willing to do so. Relatively speaking, the mainland is a very safe place. At least there are not many people holding guns there. It is safer than the United States. As long as there is no war or accident, their life is basically not safe. There will be no problem. After giving the order to Yang Zhi and the others, Li Mingbao made a call to American Express and said that he wanted to rent a private plane to go to the mainland. It was best to prepare a complete flight crew for them, including the captain and flight attendants. Additional characters are required. American Express is originally engaged in this business. For someone like Li Mingbao,American Express has no reason not to meet the requirements of these large customers, even if Li Mingbao is going to the mainland. When American Express takes over the transportation problem, it is not just a problem of aircraft and crews. They can also handle the route problems of various airports. No matter where it is, as long as American Express takes action, it is not an outrageous request, and the airport will not Any comments. Of course, the price for letting American Express take action is not small. The whole package costs Li Mingbao Xiao half a million dollars, which is definitely not cheap. But the money covers Li Mingbao's back-and-forth problems, so he doesn't have to worry about other problems, and it can be regarded as money buying convenience.
