"Sigh, I think no matter how you earn money, you’ll never earn it all. It’s more fun when everyone makes money together." Fei said with a smile. "I also think that money should be earned together," Song Yun said, "It’s much more interesting for two people to each earn fifty yuan than for one person to earn one hundred yuan. Shared joy is better than personal joy." "Haha, that’s true. I heard that you’re here in Guangzhou this time to invest in a High-tech Industrial Park?" Fei asked. "Yes, the geographical location here is good, and the market prospects are promising. If a High-tech Industrial Park is established, it’s definitely going to be profitable." Song Yun said with a smile. "Profit? As far as I know, your current investment will require at least tens of billions, earning that back is going to be so difficult!" Fei said. "You just don’t understand," Song Yun said, "This tens of billions, not all of it is my contribution. About fifty percent of this is considered a grant." "A grant?" Fei asked in surprise, "What grant?" "The folks at the Red Wall are also interested in opening a High-tech Industrial Park here in Guangzhou. Coincidentally, I have some connections in the Red Wall. So, half of the investment comes from me and the other half from the Red Wall. And by collaborating, we can set up this High-tech Industrial Park. Moreover, companies like Apple and Microsoft will move into this High-tech Industrial Zone. The annual revenue could be at least over ten billion, enabling us to break even in six or seven years. After that, it’ll really be like minting money!" Song Yun said. Fei initially brought up the topic casually to chat with Song Yun, with the aim to gradually shift Song Yun towards discussing the collaboration between the two organizations. In doing so, if Song Yun could be the one to bring it up, stating that ’we should collaborate’, then Fei would undoubtedly gain a significant advantage. It’s a simple principle everyone understands—when one person says, ’I want to do this with you,’ the other person automatically gains the upper hand. For instance, if you tell your girlfriend, ’Tonight, you have to have a baby with me,’ your girlfriend then has the power to decide if she wants to have a baby with you, and she can set the conditions on the spot. For example, ’You have to do the dishes, then we’ll have a baby tonight,’ or ’You have to mop the floor, then I’ll have a baby with you tonight.’ Similarly, if your girlfriend says to you, ’Turn the lights off early tonight to have a baby,’ then you’ll have the upper hand. You could say, ’We’ll try new things I learned,’ and you’ll be in for a treat. This is a typical situation where the one who takes initiative ends up being passive in the emotions involved. Just didn’t expect that with Fei’s casual lead, Song Yun would be completely guided into the project he was about to invest in. And with just a few simple words, he piqued Fei’s interest. An income of at least ten billion a year, roughly breaking even in seven or eight years, leading to a money-making speed like that of a printing press—what is anyone striving for if not making money? "So, Song Yun, is it really that profitable?" Fei asked. "Of course, firstly, I will have my own industries in this High-tech Industrial Park," Song Yun said. "I currently have several phone and TV manufacturers under my name, and they will all be relocated here. The benefits they can generate are self-explanatory. Additionally, with the involvement of the Red Wall, the High-tech Industrial Zone will receive significant support from the Guangzhou Municipal Government, in areas like taxation, which is an invisible financial advantage. Furthermore, if all those multinational giant companies enter the industrial zone, the impact they will have and the subsequent derivative benefits will be even greater. There are many complexities here that I cannot fully explain, but certainly, over ten billion a year is achievable. However, the amount I personally get is just a few billion, which for Brother Fei would be nothing more than a drop in the bucket." "A few billion isn’t exactly a drop in the bucket," Fei said squinting his eyes. "You know we mainly deal with parachuting businesses called ’small circle’, mostly doing under-the-table deals daily. Our profits are nowhere near what you industrial guys make. If we can pull in a two to three billion a year, it’s pretty good. When business is tough, sometimes we’re not even making a billion a year. Sigh, I’ve been struggling to find ways to make money. Song Yun, isn’t it said that you need more than two hundred billion for the total investment? Are you still looking for investors? If I can shuffle things around a bit, I might be able to free up fifty billion. "Well, this one hundred billion is just the initial investment to set up the basic infrastructure of the industrial park. The latter one hundred billion will be to fully complete the entire industrial zone, striving to make this High-tech Industrial Park one of the top in Asia and even the world!" Song Yun said passionately, which made Fei’s heart itch. Living in the underworld for so long, who wouldn’t want to make money in spades? Who doesn’t want to become rich? The operating model of the small circle group makes it very combative, but economically it’s not on par with other organizations. Of course, there are some shady deals and related industries, but its biggest disadvantage is it lacks a truly significant market to develop. Since the small circle group mainly deals in parachuting business, they could be fighting with Russian bosses in Siberia today and playing with the Black Hand in Italy tomorrow, offending a significant many people. Hence, if they truly settled in one place, many would surely come seeking trouble. This disadvantage directly leads to the small circle group lagging behind several peer organizations economically, but if they could get a piece of Song Yun’s so-called High-tech Industrial Zone, it would mean a few billion in guaranteed annual revenue, which is more profitable than anything else. Although Fei knew that Song Yun might be deliberately tempting him, he couldn’t resist, just like when you want your girlfriend to invite you over directly, but instead, she teases you with sultry gestures and makes herself all fragrant. Often, in the end, you can’t hold back, and once you give in, you become passive. Googlᴇ search Nove1Fire.net At this moment, Fei is like a man thoroughly seduced, and Song Yun is like a woman radiating seductive scents all over. Fei knows perfectly well Song Yun is waiting for him to take the bait, but he just can’t help but take it! Seeing Fei’s expression of wanting but trying hard not to, Song Yun couldn’t help but laugh. Song Yun was quite clear why Fei came to see him today—seeking collaboration, nothing more. Naturally, it’s the collaboration between the Shura Alliance and the Tripartite Corporation. The relationship between the Tripartite Corporation and the small circle group is just like they’re intertwined. The Tripartite Corporation could be considered part of the small circle group, and vice versa. It’s said the leaders of the two organizations are brothers. The eldest brother is the boss behind the scenes of the small circle group, likes fighting, so he started the small circle to parachute around the world. The younger brother was originally part of the small circle, but later felt always parachuting wasn’t the solution and broke away to create the Tripartite Corporation. On the surface, the two organizations operate independently, but in reality, people from both organizations view each other as genuine comrades-in-arms. Song Yun speculated that the Tripartite Corporation would send someone to approach him because among the three major forces, the Tripartite Corporation is just average. And if they could get help from Song Yun’s Shura Alliance! Then by collaborating with the small circle group, who knows, maybe they could take down the Money Group and Xingyi’an?
