Chapter 9 Zhou Huimin's tangle(1/2)

In the 1980s, no place in Africa was without chaos.

Even in Uganda, a landlocked agricultural country, the plane that had just landed at the Ugandan port airport was immediately searched by a large group of soldiers.

Tao Xi looked at Marco, who was standing not far away with a helpless expression, and had no choice but to accept the search by these people.

“Uganda is a place that is just coming out of civil strife.”

"What does the civil unrest have to do with him searching my pocket?" Tao Xi said dissatisfiedly as he watched the soldier with a strange smell put his hand into his pocket.

"I told you before I came here that it's best not to bring anything valuable when you come here. It seems you didn't listen to my advice."

Marco watched the group of soldiers take a pack of cigarettes and about 400 U.S. dollars in U.S. bills from Taosi's pocket and left, then shrugged at Taosi.

This time, Taosi plans to carry out land acquisition and land development business in Uganda openly.

So none of the group of burly men came with Tao Xi, after all, the time this time was extremely limited.

"Are you sure you want to invest $2 billion in Uganda this time?"

Marco took Tao Xi and took the lead in getting into a dilapidated Russian car and inquired eagerly.

"Are you crazy, or am I crazy! US$2 billion can allow me to buy half of Otaru Port in Japan!"

As soon as Tao Xi got into the car, he slumped down on the car.

In order to make the trip smooth, Tao Xi initially wanted Prince to help, but most of Africa now is occupied by the latent forces of the Soviet Union. Europe and the United Kingdom also have some influence here, but the CIA has no presence here.

.

In response, Taosi had no choice but to wave the check in his hand and ask Noriega of Panama to come forward to introduce them.

The other party's requirements are also very simple. "A hospital, a straight road, and a factory" can carry out energy exploration where they want.

"That's right, it's a hospital, a road, and a factory without any requirements. As long as you meet these conditions, you can draw a circle on the map to build it!"

"Of course the ownership of the land is still theirs."

Tao Xi was immediately confused after hearing Marco's introduction because the conditions given by the other party were simply too simple.

Qian Taoxi, who had brought enough money, suddenly had no place to use it: "How about we build a road for him in the city? Usually others trick me, but suddenly someone treats me so honestly. I am still not used to it!"

“We are the first foreign businessmen to invest in Uganda!”

Tao Xi did feel a little embarrassed after hearing this answer.

The map coordinates on the radio were not in the capital of Uganda, but near a lake in western Uganda.

When Tao Xi and his party arrived, they took the bus seriously for four days. This was because all the people in the bus were young people. If there were elderly people, they might not even have survived.

Moreover, Tao Xi encountered more than one roadblock and robbery on the way.

Tao Xi stood near the lake and looked at the dense bushes and the indigenous people who occasionally showed half of their heads. He said with emotion: "I finally understand why they offer such cheap conditions. If I want to make good use of the land,

Then I have to dig out a road from the land here!"

Marco, who was standing nearby, squatted beside the lake and looked at the dense footprints on the lakeside: "We also need to provide employment for the villagers nearby. If you want to develop this place, it is impossible to rely on us alone."

Tao Xi touched his chin and thought seriously about how to speculate on the oil under this land.

In the previous life, East Africa called this place "Uganda's Lake Albert Oilfield". It was a desolate place, and the nearest city was more than 300 kilometers away.

It's better to call it a city than a ruin.

Everything here is in desperate need, but in order to attract the attention of the Middle East, Tao Xi must find a way.

Scams like [Nicaragua Mining and Energy Group] can no longer be operated.

The original market value of the stock was as high as 150 billion US dollars, but now it is less than 20 billion US dollars, if Daniel of the Sanli regime had not succeeded in taking over and used Nicaragua's credit as a guarantee.

The New York Stock Exchange expelled the company.

What Taoxi needs now is a listed company that can guarantee this land with credibility.

The guarantee here does not mean guaranteeing development, but using his company's goodwill to guarantee the oil production here.

For a moment, Tao Xi really couldn't think of any suitable company.

Eh, that’s not right!

The Suzuki Group is a good brother of Japan. Now Osamu Suzuki can't wait to wear the same pants as Marco.

The Suzuki Group earned US$200 million in patent fees from Taosi just through patent licensing, not counting the profit sharing from the soon-to-be-formally established automobile production line.

The annual maintenance cost of a production line is US$70 million!

It's really dark, but Tao Xi likes that things that can be solved with money are not problems, and Osamu Suzuki is also willing to help Marco set up automotive research institutes and automotive schools in Central America for talent training programs.

"Hey, Mr. Suzuki~"

Suzuki Osamu, who was eating sushi, wanted to hang up the phone immediately when he heard it was Tao Xi, the star of the family.

Others don't know who bombed the Yasukuni Shrine. How could he not know? If he hadn't been an accomplice and helped Tao Xi and his group cover up their traces, he would have really stood up and reported them.

"You are very courageous, Mr. Tao Xi. I hope you don't contact me unless there is something serious!"

Tao Xi was not angry at all when he heard Osamu Suzuki's cold voice on the phone. After all, Osamu Suzuki was so old now and had kept him awake for more than half a month. Tao Xi was also a little embarrassed.

"Hahahaha, Mr. Suzuki, don't be angry. I know what happened last time caused some unpleasantness between us, but I am helping you make money this time. I know that Mr. Suzuki has privately repurchased a lot of Nicaraguan mining.

Where are the shares?”

Tao Xi heard Suzuki Osamu's cold "hum" voice coming from the phone, and Tao Xi almost laughed.

Are you tired of pretending to be disdainful despite being very interested in the energy market?

"Haha, if Mr. Suzuki is not tired, I hope you can come to Uganda and have tea with me!"

"Mr. Tao Xi, my time is precious. I hope you can tell the whole story directly."

Marco lay aside and burst out laughing when he heard Osamu Suzuki pretending to be calm on the phone. This crooked old man always does this.

It was just like fishing with him. It took a long time for you to come and go before he got on the road.

"I dug out oil here, it's an oil field, but I may need your help. I remember that there is a construction branch under the Suzuki Group, and I can introduce some business to you by the way!"

"good!"

Tao Xi and Marco burst out laughing instantly when they heard Suzuki Osamu's overly cheerful promise and answer.

It was Zhou Huimin's first time coming to the big city of New York and she looked at the streets and high-rise buildings with constant traffic around her in surprise.

Fang Yihua glanced at Zhou Huimin, who was with a country girl beside him, and smiled: "Sisi, let's go, your life has just begun."

"Mrs. Fang, why do you want me to talk to you?"

"Break up, right? It's time to break up! If you don't break up, you will go back to Hollywood empty-handed. Tao Xi has a sister in Hollywood who is in charge of the NBA. She is very picky."

Fang Yihua couldn't refuse and hugged Zhou Huimin and walked towards the Buckley Center, the home of the New York Nets.

A luxury Lincoln limousine was parked at the entrance to the New York International Airport. Although Hong Kong's economy is far inferior to that of New York, it is still the richest man in the place.

A luxury car is really nothing.

The Lincoln limousine was followed by nearly six business cars. The huge fleet of luxury cars attracted the attention of everyone at New York International Airport.

Zhou Huimin, who was sitting in the car, looked at Mrs. Fang beside her with a complicated expression on her face.

In the past, she had only heard that Mrs. Fang was very skillful in doing things, but she did not expect that Mrs. Fang was so strong that she interfered in her private life.

Although she and her boyfriend had been apart for a long time and did not have much affection, she was still unhappy with her life being controlled by others.

But soon Zhou Huimin was attracted by the movement at the entrance of Buckley Center Arena.

There were pedestrians everywhere at the entrance of the seemingly luxurious stadium, and there were all kinds of beauties standing on a red carpet, among which there was one who was the most stylish.

Several people were surrounding the woman wearing luxury goods that she could not usually afford in Hong Kong, but the woman was walking on the red carpet with a proud look on her face.

"That woman's name is Kim Hee-jin, the apparent owner of the Los Angeles Clippers. The Clippers are also the most profitable team in the NBA."

“No one knows about Jin Xi’s true past!”

"But everyone knows that this woman is not only the CFO of Neil Group, but also the top socialite in the New York socialite circle."

Zhou Huimin looked at the lively scene outside with a confused look: "But what does this have to do with me?"

"Oh, you will sit in front of her when you enter the stadium soon. You have to work hard to get to know her. Only by getting to know her can Shaw Brothers get the greatest help from MGM, you know?"

"It's already sunset for MGM, but so many big bosses in Hollywood are willing to give MGM face because of the Neal Motors United Cinemas chain behind it!"

"This theater chain now has nearly 7,000 screens and CD distribution channels in the United States."

"Although the single-show revenue of each cinema is not high, Neil Auto Cinemas has thoroughly enjoyed the rural people in the United States!"

"This is a typical rural area surrounding a city."

"The most important thing is that the part of the box office he holds does not conflict with other capital parties at all."

"So, as long as you get Jin Xizhen's friendship and Tao Xi's friendship, then what Shaw Brothers will get in the future will not only be the rights to export the five films Shi Nansheng mentioned, but with your Shaw Brothers music and Shaw Brothers movies, they will definitely be Hong Kong's first

The existence of one!”

Zhou Huimin was a little confused when she heard Mrs. Fang's words.

She used to be just an ordinary little country girl. She didn't know anything about intrigues or fights between wealthy families.
