Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Although New Oriental Pictures is indeed a hot company, it is far from being able to attract investment from four consortiums.

If such a situation really occurs, there is only one possibility. This situation will only occur if the people of the four consortiums are all crazy at the same time.

"Mr. Charlie, I'm just giving you a suggestion. If you think it's inappropriate, just pretend I didn't say it."

Of course Lin Daoqiu would not force Charlie Wood to do this. He just said it casually. If the other party is not willing, then forget it.

Charlie Wood looked at Lin Daoqiu and couldn't say a word for a long time. He didn't know whether the other party's suggestion was a joke or serious.

It was originally impossible for him to find three other companies to invest in Readers Times and New Oriental Pictures.

"Mr. Charlie, thank you very much for your invitation. If there is nothing else, I will leave first. If there is a chance next time, I will treat you to coffee."

Lin Daoqiu felt that there was nothing to talk about staying with Charlie Wood. After all, the Wood Consortium was not on his candidate list at all.

Charlie Wood, who was originally full of confidence, thought that if he invited Lin Daoqiu out today, he would be able to convince him.

But what he didn't expect was that he really underestimated Lin Daoqiu a little bit, thinking that giving him some small favors would influence Lin Daoqiu's thoughts. But unfortunately, this method simply didn't work. Lin Daoqiu was not a fool.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Lin, for taking the time to see me today. I hope that Mr. Lin and I will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."

Lin Daoqiu just smiled slightly at this, because he did not think that he and Charlie Wood would have any business interactions in the future.

But Lin Daoqiu would not say this. After all, more friends lead to more roads, and fewer enemies lead to fewer walls, especially in North America.

"Then I'm looking forward to that day."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, he took Fang Jinsheng and left the lounge.

Charlie Wood stood in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window and watched Lin Daoqiu go away. It was not until the other party got in the car that Charlie Wood looked back.

Eliwood, who had been standing silently next to him, finally spoke at this time.

"Master, I think let's forget about this matter. Lin Daoqiu has too many choices, and we don't have any advantage over them."

When Eliwood first came into contact with Lin Daoqiu, he could feel that Lin Daoqiu actually did not want to cooperate with the Wood Consortium, otherwise he would not have offered such a sky-high price.

The results that came out now confirmed his previous conjecture, so it can be said that Eliwood did not have any good impression of Lin Daoqiu, and he even felt that this guy was simply a villain.

When Eliwood finished speaking, Charlie Wood turned his head and looked at him, but he still didn't say a word.

Having been with Eliwood for more than ten years, Eliwood is very familiar with Charlie Wood. Just from his demeanor and expression, he can probably guess what Charlie Wood is thinking.

"Call Yabus, I want to talk to him."

Hearing what Charlie Wood said, Eliwood immediately realized what his young master wanted to do.

Although it is impossible to invest in "Reader Times" and New Oriental Pictures together with the other three companies, if only one of them is chosen to cooperate, then Charlie Wood is more or less acceptable.

When the call was dialed, Charlie Wood immediately walked over and picked up the phone.

"Charlie, why do you call me when you have time?"

Jacobs was a little surprised to receive a call from Charlie Wood, but he didn't think much about it because he had no idea what the reason for Charlie Wood's call was.

"I have just met Mr. Lin Daoqiulin."

Yabus knew that the Wood Consortium was very interested in investing in Readers Times and New Oriental Pictures, so Yabus did not find anything strange when Charlie Wood and Lin Daoqiu met.

"Mr. Lin has eliminated the Wood Group from this competition."

"Oh...this is such a sad thing."

Although Yabus said so, when he recommended partners to Lin Daoqiu, he did not include the Wood Group.

The exit of the Wood Consortium was not a surprise to Jacobs. On the contrary, it would have been strange to Jacobs if Lin Daoqiu had not eliminated the Wood Consortium.

"Mr. Lin gave me an idea before he left. Guess what kind of solution he gave me?"

"Mr. Lin gave you an idea? Could it be that he asked you to call me?"

Yabus did not guess correctly, and it was impossible for Lin Daoqiu to do such a roundabout thing.

"Mr. Lin proposed that I unite three other consortiums to cooperate with him."

"ah?"

Hearing what Charlie Wood said, Jacobs couldn't help but sigh, because this was really a proposal that made him feel incredible.

How could Lin Daoqiu think of asking Charlie Wood to find three other companies to join forces to invest in his company? This was impossible just by thinking about it.

Because so far, Yabus has never seen a company or project that requires four of the top ten consortiums in North America to jointly invest.

Even "Readers Times" and New Oriental Pictures combined are far from reaching this value, so Lin Daoqiu's proposal made Yabus feel strange.

There was even a moment when Jacobs thought that Lin Daoqiu's idea for Charlie Wood was just to amuse him? Or maybe Lin Daoqiu didn't understand the situation of the top ten financial groups in North America at all.

If not, how could he make such an incredible suggestion to Charlie Wood?

"At first, I thought Mr. Lin's proposal was too nonsense, but if I change my mind and find one of them to cooperate instead of the other three, it may not be impossible."

Jacobs immediately realized the purpose of Charlie Wood's call to him. He actually wanted to join forces with him to invest in Readers Times and New Oriental Pictures.

If Charlie Wood's phone call had been made a week ago, it would have been impossible for Yabus to agree to the other party's request, because at that time Yabus felt that he had a chance to win and could win over Lin Daoqiu without the cooperation of others.

But now that he is out because of the Xiangjiang matter, if he wants to continue to participate in this bidding, he must find a strong partner to cooperate with.

Now that Charlie Wood has extended an olive branch to him, Jacobs began to think seriously about whether he should take the next step or not.
