With the help of McKinsey Consulting, Su Yehao was basically relieved after understanding the situation.

The resolution to establish an investment department was successfully passed at the meeting, and it was just a matter of allocating the funds after the reorganization was completed.

As for how to invest specifically, Su Yehao hadn't thought it through yet.

After thinking about it, it was nothing more than making private equity investments in the mainland, or finding a way to bring the money to the NASDAQ stock exchange. He preferred the latter because it was easier.

If the profit within a year does not exceed 30%, Sihai International would only earn 43% of the profit. Since it wouldn't all be for his own benefit, Su Yehao naturally hoped to make money easily.

Yahoo's stock price had already risen to seventy-six US dollars, but there was still great potential for appreciation. He was considering using leverage to maximize his returns, so that he could rightfully acquire a batch of Meadville Group shares.

If nothing unexpected happened, these shares could also appreciate in the future. Perhaps there would be an opportunity to make a fortune and extend the gambling agreement.

Promising 30% this year, after making achievements, there would be a chance to lower it to 25%, or even 20%. Anyway, as long as the profit generated by idle funds exceeds other financial management income, the board of directors shouldn't be stupid enough to refuse such a win-win situation.

Su Yehao was also aware that people are greedy, and perhaps someone would want him to work for the company for free.

However, there was no need to consider this trouble in the short term.

The father and son had heard some gossip in the company.

Su Yehao didn't care. Anyway, he would be in charge of an independent investment department, and there would be almost no interaction with other people.

And Su's father also chose to ignore it, too lazy to care about these noises.

…

On the third day in Fochuan.

After Su Yehao inspected his own tile factory, he accidentally saw the news of Wuliangye's upcoming listing in the newspaper while returning with Nong Qingying.

He decisively made a phone call and sent someone to check the details. He learned that the listing date had been set, and it was in the next few days.

In the early stages of listing, the continuous daily price limits had become commonplace in the past two years.

This meant that it was a little late to buy Wuliangye stocks. Waiting until the price had risen and then entering the secondary market to hold shares was no different from voluntarily offering oneself to be harvested like chives. In the short term, there would only be losses.

Compared with these popular new stocks, Su Yehao felt that it might be worth trying some of the already listed real estate companies and food and beverage companies.

Having no spare money on hand temporarily limited his ambition to continue a new round of expansion.

Su Yehao found that he was unknowingly owing banks more than one billion Hong Kong dollars, but he didn't feel panicked at all. Liabilities and debts were completely two different concepts.

The wage earner who used to worry about even Huabei was gone forever.

————————————————————

Back in Hong Kong, he met with the designer to discuss the details of designing the courtyard.

Among the many creative drafts, Su Yehao favored a plan to dig a lake and build hills. He could also build a European-style castle on the small hill, which would be suitable for receiving guests or for his children to live in the future.

With more than fifty acres of land, it would probably take a lot of brainpower to use it reasonably.

This was the task of Party B, and Su Yehao didn't need to worry about it.

As Party A, he only needed to spread the news, attract design companies to participate in the bidding, and find a plan that he liked.

The evening of March 9th.

He suddenly received a call from Zhao Yimeng, who invited him to dinner. Su Yehao went directly.

The Eastern Phoenix yacht was docked next to the Central Pier. The sky had just darkened, and the lights on both sides of Victoria Harbour were lit up. Some high-rise buildings needed to be looked up at.

Zhao Yimeng was wearing a little black dress, her fair and smooth shoulders exposed, and a pink diamond necklace below her collarbone.

Bringing a bottle of rosé sparkling wine as a gift, Su Yehao directly asked someone to open it, and sat down carelessly at the dining table, saying, "It hasn't been long since you've been in contact with business, but I feel that you've become more mature, mainly in terms of temperament, and your figure is the same."

"...Damn it, I invited you and Nangong Tian, why did only you come?"

Zhao Yimeng's eyes were a little suspicious. She was guessing that Su Yehao hadn't mentioned the dinner to the little girl at all. After all, she had been pestered for so many years, and she knew that she was the type he liked.

Su Yehao smiled and said, "Don't wrong me, Nangong has been very busy recently. She is working as a producer, preparing to make a movie."

"Movie?"

"Yes, a movie promoting my company's products, tAt. The planned investment is 20 million, but she doesn't want to find big stars, so it shouldn't cost that much. I just wanted to contact you to borrow the school for filming for a while, trying not to affect the students' classes."

After Su Yehao finished speaking, he continued to explain: "I called her, but she already has plans tonight. Someone invited her to dinner."

Zhao Yimeng nodded and changed the subject, saying:

"The First National Bank of Japan, which you helped my family contact before, has already given a reply. My family helped to guarantee a short-term loan of 500 million Hong Kong dollars for two years. It shouldn't be a problem for emergencies. Replacing the old debt with the new debt, there will be a chance to turn over if we can hold on."

"That's great. Besides this bank, didn't you look for other new banks?" Su Yehao asked casually.

Zhao Yimeng told him, "We looked, how could we not look? We were just about to catch our breath when the housing prices in Hong Kong started to fall again. It's almost becoming negative equity, and I really don't know when it will recover."

"Relying on the market to recover, there is no hope in the next few years. Market confidence has been broken all at once, and at least we have to wait a few years. It's better to increase the discount. Maybe my dad will take action. There is news that Casino will release a few more gambling licenses. In addition to continuing to reclaim land from the sea, only Taipa Island has space left. Congratulations to myself for buying your family's residential land."

Su Yehao poured wine for Zhao Yimeng leisurely.

This bottle of rosé sparkling wine was bought by Nangong Tian. It was just produced a few months ago. The taste and color are very sweet, suitable for girls to taste. A bottle only costs more than one hundred Hong Kong dollars.

After really having money, you will find that whether you like it or not is more important than value. He is very familiar with this girl, so there is no need to consider whether it is presentable.

After Zhao Yimeng heard this, she poured cold water and said:

"There have been rumors about splitting gambling licenses a few years ago, but there has been no movement until now. Even if it really appreciates, what's the use? With Donghuang's current situation, it is definitely right to cash out in time. I don't regret it."

Su Yehao looked at her and asked with a smile:

"You are all looking for banks in Hong Kong and foreign countries, right? Have you considered the mainland? They seem to be very short of business. I can ask my dad to help. When the Cultural Tourism City project was just launched, many mainland banks wanted to cooperate. I think with your family's situation, there is still a chance to continue borrowing. I just came back from the mainland a few days ago. Investing in the mainland is very promising."

Sihai International is not the earliest leader to enter the mainland, but in terms of the current scale of investment, even many Hong Kong tycoons cannot compare. It is undoubtedly ahead.

After Zhao Yimeng tasted the sparkling wine, she smacked her lips and replied:

"Good idea. You can hardly see mainland banks on the street. People in the company may have never tried it. Next time you go to the mainland, take me with you. I want to know what kind of market it is that made your dad choose to bet continuously, giving up the business in Southeast Asia, and almost moving most of the company there."
