Tao Liangchen
Chapter 105 A Hasty Glance
His father hogged all the limelight, leaving Su Yehao no room to perform.
He was just a mascot, smiling and calling out "Uncle" and "Auntie" a few times, and then he had nothing to do.
Standing on the deck of the yacht.
During the coastal tour and inspection, Su Yehao listened to his father introducing the so-called "super cultural tourism real estate complex" project.
The idea was already quite mature.
It was just an extension of Su Yehao's plan to the aspect of "cooperative development and joint operation."
He proposed that Sihai International invest around two billion Hong Kong dollars, take the lead in contacting multiple companies to invest together, and build a landmark building complex that could represent the local style. It wouldn't just be a one-off real estate deal. The subsequent commercial management, shopping malls, tourism, restaurants, and other aspects could continuously generate tax revenue and employment opportunities.
He called it vigorously supporting local development, without mentioning his own profits.
And he emphasized bringing his friends in Casino and Hong Kong to come and inspect and invest, to see if there were any opportunities for cooperation.
After listening, Su Yehao pondered slightly and realized there was a deeper meaning behind it. It was clearly the same old wine in a new bottle, but it was much cleverer than his own approach and more likely to impress the people in charge of the reception.
No wonder he's an old dog in this world.
Having an experienced elder in the family is like having a treasure. Twenty years of business experience isn't for nothing.
Increasingly aware of the things he needed to learn, Su Yehao smiled as he watched his father talk eloquently.
In any case, it's always a good thing to have the family do more business and development in the mainland.
Even if the cultural tourism city plan doesn't work out, once they get a taste of success, they will likely increase their investment in the mainland.
A prime piece of real estate in the future.
In April of 1997, large swaths of it were still farmland and wilderness.
The urban planning for the next few years had already been done, and the restrictions on land use were gradually tightening. Many things couldn't be decided locally, so there would definitely be no reply for the time being.
However, when it came to urban construction development and foreign investment, it wasn't absolutely impossible to negotiate.
It would be a little difficult to get the best location, but places like the intersection of Bao'an and Nanshan, or the intersection of Longhua and Nanshan and Futian, wouldn't be a problem.
The planned urban area was small, and large areas of farmland and wasteland next to it had not yet been included in the plan.
Say the right things at the right time. Even Su's father's vision of a full one square kilometer didn't shock anyone.
As for bringing others along to play...
From Su Yehao's perspective, it was like getting people on a free ride.
But in the eyes of others.
What he thought was a cake might not necessarily be a cake.
The people in charge of the reception, upon hearing that the development cycle might be as long as ten years, immediately hesitated and said that it would be difficult to find local companies to invest, and advised him to think of ways to get investment from Casino and Hong Kong.
The excuse was that their strength was insufficient, but in reality, it was because people liked to make quick money.
Such a super-sized project was not only risky, with many uncertainties, but also time-consuming.
Look at Nanshan, the Window of the World, covering an area of 4,800 mu. After it was built, it was fresh for a while, but now only outsiders would buy tickets to enter.
With this lesson learned.
It's no wonder that the people in charge of the reception didn't think Su's father could attract much investment locally.
Afraid of being disappointed, they chose to say the unpleasant things first.
To this.
Su Yehao, who was watching from the sidelines, only found it interesting.
First come, first served.
Whether in Guangzhou or Pengcheng, as long as a super complex project can be landed, he won't have to worry about his own business for the next few years.

——————————
The yacht was registered.
After a morning of inspection and lunch, they took a boat to Hong Kong.
With Su Yehao present, his mother gave him some face and rarely allowed Su's father to accompany her shopping, responsible for carrying bags and swiping cards.
Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin, etc., Su Yehao didn't understand.
Seeing Rolex in the mall, he was a little tempted, because in his previous life, when he received a leader at a meeting, the other party was wearing a Rolex gold watch, which was still impressive.
Therefore, when his mother asked him what kind of gift he wanted, Su Yehao reluctantly bought a Rolex Daytona gold watch with diamond-encrusted scales.
What is it like to have a rich mother?
Just look at Mom Tang.
On the one hand, she disliked Su Yehao's taste in gold watches, blaming his father for corrupting his son.
On the other hand, she helped him pick out other styles, and took the lead in buying another "affordable and durable" black Submariner, educating Su Yehao to swim and exercise more, which is good for his health.
From 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM, she bought a lot of clothes, shoes, and socks, and even took care of all the underwear.
Su Yehao figured it out.
His mother likes to shop, but she lacks nothing.
Rarely seizing the opportunity, she bought everything she liked for her precious son, while Su's father obediently swiped the card.
Although shopping was tiring.
But this time, Su Yehao found... he could still persevere a little longer.
Sighing regretfully.
There was no Lamborghini auto show in the mall today, and there were just two empty spaces in the garage at home...
The whole day was spent sightseeing.
He had to go to class tomorrow, so he had hotpot with his parents that night and took a boat back to school.
Su's father had a little to drink and fell asleep snoring on the sofa in the living room.
The snoring was rhythmic.
While enjoying the scenery, Su Yehao used the satellite phone to call Yin Liuli, as his mobile phone had no signal, and asked how she had spent the weekend.
Yin Liuli told him that she had already made an appointment with a wine distributor and wanted him to come forward to talk, so as not to suffer losses.
This girl is quite serious.
It should be due to language differences and poor communication that she was helpless in the face of such negotiations.
Before.
Su Yehao had also personally contacted a multinational trading company that specializes in providing high-end meat and seafood to discuss cooperation details with them.
Not wanting to embarrass Yin Liuli, he readily agreed and set the meeting time with the wine supplier for tomorrow night.
As the opening date of the restaurant and coffee shop approached day by day, after resting for so long, he slowly recovered.
Su Yehao began to think about his small business.
The funds from the bank mortgage loan are expected to be approved next week, followed by the payment.
A large sum of cash is about to be in hand, and it is worth thinking seriously about how to use it.
On the Yahoo side.
The purchase price was $27.64, and by Friday it had risen to $31.67. After buying it for more than half a month, the increase exceeded 14%, and he easily earned more than one million.
During dinner in the evening, Su Yehao also showed off to his mother, while also complaining a little.
Unfortunately, his parents didn't care about this income. After listening, they firmly believed that helping him manage his finances was a wise decision.
He was still at a disadvantage for being too young.
As for selling Berkshire Hathaway stock, that was even more impossible.
According to Mom Tang, it's easy to lose money if it rises too much, and it's better to be content than to fall into a trap.
What else could he say?
His assets were tightly controlled by his mother, and his father was not an easy-going person.
The two joined forces for a mixed doubles match.
They lectured him together, telling him to focus on his studies and strive to get into a good university, which was the key.
Even if Su Yehao had a temper, he could only swallow it.
... Sure enough, he should develop his own business as soon as possible. The feeling of being constrained is depressing.
Feeling relaxed, the sea breeze was comfortable.
As for investing in the mainland, he had done almost everything he could do.
At this moment, Su Yehao was filling in the gaps and found that he had forgotten to say hello to Huang Daixian and Ge Banxian in advance. With his father's temper, he might go to them for some confidence at any time.
Of course.
Ginger Counselor was also a key figure who needed to be won over.
After the morning inspection, Ginger Counselor had already returned to Casino with other colleagues, taking a car from the shore. Su Yehao didn't have a chance to contact him separately.
Arriving at the pier in Casino.
The car was already waiting in advance. His father was going to spend the night at the Fourth Madam's place and left directly.
Su Yehao thought about it.
He didn't go home either, but instead called Nong Qingying.
He said on the phone, "The night is long, and I can't sleep. Would you do me the honor of seeing a movie? The longest kind of bad movie, you know."
On the other end of the phone.
Nong Qingying smiled and said, "Okay, just come here... I had someone renovate the room yesterday and set up a screening room, you know."
Su Yehao was stunned when he heard this.
He instantly perked up, not sleepy at all, his eyes wide like copper bells.
He rushed from the pier to Villa No. 6 at the golf course, only to find out when he entered that her best friend was also there.
How hot he was just now, how cold he is now.
Damn it.
He had been tricked.
...
That night.
They watched *Home Alone 1* and *Home Alone 2*.
Su Yehao drank a bellyful of Coke and didn't even get to hold hands. He was kicked out at 11:00 PM.
After hesitating for a moment.
He called Yin Liuli.
She understood.
