Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 236: The Little Superman of the Future

Lu Shaohua did not hesitate and answered the phone directly. Not many people knew the villa's phone number, so since someone was calling, they must have something to talk to him about. "Hello, who is this?"

"Haha, Xiaohua, it's me, your Uncle Li." Li Jiacheng's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Haha! It's Uncle Superman, nice to meet you!" Lu Shaohua said in a pretentious tone.

"..." Li Jiacheng was silent. To be honest, he didn't like others calling him Li Chaoren. Oh! To be more precise, he didn't like Lu Shaohua calling him 'Chaoren'. The reason why he was called 'Li Chaoren' by the outside world was because he accumulated wealth too quickly. However, compared with Lu Shaohua, his accumulation speed became insignificant.

Li Jiacheng also learned a lot about Lu Shaohua's past from Huo Yingdong. He started to help his family earn money at the age of seven, and at the age of nine, he took the three million yuan given by his father and borrowed one million US dollars from the bank to go to Japan to speculate in stocks. He made more than 300 million US dollars in just a few days on Black Monday, which was no different from riding a rocket.

In 89, things were even more outrageous. They took a big gamble by enclosing land and siphoning off a large amount of funds. In less than a year, they made over billion US dollars from Japan. This over billion US dollars is just a rough estimate, and the exact number of hundreds of billions is still unknown.

Indeed, Lu Shaohua himself may not even know how much wealth he has now. The only one who knows the details is Liu Mingzhang, who is in charge of finance. However, it is not the same as when he just came back from Japan. He has more than 420 billion US dollars. He has spent billions of dollars on investing in Shenzhen, and there are tens of billions of dollars in other things. After all, more than 10 billion was allocated to Africa to build a secret base.

These are all real money, Lu Shaohua didn't feel anything, just a phone call, and then asked Liu Mingzhang to transfer the money. But Liu Mingzhang, who manages the finances, really feels the true meaning of the phrase "spending money like water".

After a long silence, Li Jiacheng finally said, "Xiaohua, could you please not add the word 'superman'? It makes me feel uncomfortable."

"Haha! It's not awkward, it's not awkward, I just follow the people outside and call you that!" Lu Shaohua said jokingly.

"Ah!" Li Jiacheng sighed, decided not to dwell on this matter any more, and quickly changed the subject. "Today's press conference was very successful, and the outside world had different reactions. I just got back to the office and I have received more than a dozen calls from old friends. I don't know how to explain it."

"Haha! It's great to create a sensation. The media will indirectly help us promote the news and we can save some advertising costs." Lu Shaohua still had a joking tone, but his words made sense. In order to have big news, the media reported it one after another, indirectly helping to create momentum.

"Haha, so what you said is that we have gotten a great advantage?" asked Li Jiacheng on the other end of the phone.

"Yes, after a free promotion, I guess most people now know about the company Longteng Venture Capital." Lu Shaohua's tone changed quickly and he became serious.

"Yes, the response is very enthusiastic. Well! I won't say more. I called you for two things. The first is to tell you about the current situation. The second is to invite you, the mysterious president of Phoenix Group, to visit my company. My son is very interested in you." Li Jiacheng's voice came through the microphone again.

I still remember that the last time the Huo family held a banquet, Li Jiacheng invited Lu Shaohua to visit his Cheung Kong Holdings, and Lu Shaohua agreed. However, he has been staying in the villa all day long recently and has forgotten about this matter.

"How about this, it's almost eleven o'clock now, I'll go over after lunch, okay?" Lu Shaohua will definitely do what he promised to others. This is Lu Shaohua's principle of doing things.

"Hey, why are you waiting until the afternoon? Are you afraid that I can't afford you? Really, how about this, if you are free now, come over to my place and have a quick meal at my house at noon." Li Jiacheng invited.

Things have come to this point, if Lu Shaohua refuses again it would seem a bit unkind. After all, Li Jiacheng and he are truly fellow villagers. Yes, Li Jiacheng's ancestral home is in Chaozhou, and Lu Shaohua grew up in Chaozhou. They are truly fellow villagers!

"Okay, I'll come to your place now." Lu Shaohua said simply.

"Hehe! That's right. I'll wait for you at the company. I'll hang up now. I'll call home and ask them to cook more dishes." After saying that, Li Jiacheng hung up the phone without waiting for Lu Shaohua to reply.

"..." Lu Shaohua held the phone and shook his head with a bitter smile.

After hanging up the phone and calling Li Shangkui and the others, he went back to his room to get dressed. There was nothing he could do. He stayed in the villa all day and didn't even wear formal clothes. He just wore pajamas all day long.

After getting dressed and returning to the first floor, it was already eleven o'clock. Li Shangkui and the others were already ready. When they saw Lu Shaohua coming down, they all put on their best form and escorted Lu Shaohua to the car that had been parked at the door. After Yang Yang and the others sent Chen Li home, she stayed there for one night and came back the next day. Lu Shaohua no longer had to ride in the Mercedes-Benz and was still enjoying his Rolls-Royce as before.

……

It was already half past eleven when they arrived at Cheung Kong. Li Jiacheng had been waiting downstairs. When he saw Lu Shaohua's Rolls-Royce stop, he walked over with a smile and said, "You're quite fast!"

"Haha! I came here as soon as I heard there was free food. Now my stomach is rumbling." Lu Shaohua said jokingly.

After saying this, Li Jiacheng wiped his sweat and stopped arguing with Lu Shaohua. "Do you want to go around my company or go directly to my office?"

"Forget about taking a walk around. If I follow a boss like you, my identity will be exposed sooner or later. I'd better just go up to your place and sit for a while." Lu Shaohua didn't want his identity to be exposed yet, especially since he was with Li Jiacheng. Some people with ulterior motives would definitely notice him. Once they noticed him, it would probably be soon before his identity was discovered. Especially in the media, the paparazzi in Hong Kong are well-known 'detectives'!

"Then go straight up. My son is still in my office." Li Jiacheng could understand why Lu Shaohua did this. Once it was revealed that he was the mysterious boss of Phoenix Group, it would not only be a sensational news, but would also cause great interference to Lu Shaohua's peaceful life.

Lu Shaohua took his group to the office on the top floor, and he finally met Li Zekai. At this time, Li Zekai was still relatively young, only 25 years old. He wore a pair of glasses with white frames and looked a bit bookish, but Lu Shaohua did not despise him because of his appearance.

This is a man who has accumulated the second richest man in just ten years. The title of "Little Superman" is not worthy of everyone. He looked at him carefully, smiled and stretched out his right hand to shake his hand, then let go and said, "Hello! Lu Shaohua."

"Haha! Let's get to know each other again, Li Zekai." Li Zekai also said with a smile.

He had often heard his father, Li Jiacheng, talk about the legendary figure Lu Shaohua, and he also knew that Lu Shaohua had built the Phoenix Group, which was very influential in Hong Kong, in just a few years.

It has to be said that Li Zekai was born in a wealthy family and has not experienced much hardship. He is still a little immature in mind and has a curiosity about legendary figures. Lu Shaohua is one of them. When he learned that Lu Shaohua, who is only a teenager, has hundreds of billions of dollars in funds, his first reaction was disbelief. When he got confirmation, it turned into curiosity.

"Haha! I seem to be a dozen years younger than you, so it's not too much to call you brother." Lu Shaohua said calmly with a very natural smile on his face.

"Haha! It's my honor to have a brother who is the boss of Phoenix Group." Li Zekai said with some emotion.

Lu Shaohua shook his head. He didn't expect that Li Zekai still had a sense of humor. "Isn't it my honor to be a brother to Superman's son?"

"..." Li Zekai was speechless for a moment. He didn't expect Lu Shaohua to bring up his father. He didn't know how to start the conversation.

Fortunately, Li Jiacheng intervened. "Xiaohua, please stop talking about Superman all the time. It makes me blush. I dare not say I am Superman in front of you. When it comes to the speed of accumulating assets, there are few people in Hong Kong, no, in the whole world, who can compare with you."

"No, no, no, you are flattering me. My Phoenix Group is nothing compared to others." Lu Shaohua said modestly. He didn't know how much Li Jiacheng knew about him, but it was never wrong to be humble. It was the virtue of the Chinese people.

"Haha! Excessive modesty becomes hypocrisy." At this time, Li Zekai also interrupted and said.

"Oh! I admit defeat, is it okay for me to admit defeat?" Lu Shaohua waved his hands and said, and then muttered quietly. "Two fathers and sons bully a teenager, ah, where is justice?"

"..." Li Jiacheng opened his mouth and closed it to express his speechlessness towards Lu Shaohua.

"..." Li Zekai was straightforward and rolled his eyes.

The three chatted for a while, and then got down to business, with Li Zekai speaking first. Lu Shaohua could be considered his boss now. Although Lu Shaohua said he would not interfere in Longteng's affairs, he was a shareholder after all, and they still had to discuss how to develop in the future.

"Brother Zekai, I think you should have an idea of ​​what this is about. Tell me what you think," said Lu Shaohua.

"Well, I do have some ideas." Li Zekai became serious and then spoke out all his thoughts, as well as everything that should be paid attention to in various aspects of the company.

Lu Shaohua listened quietly, without interrupting, and nodded from time to time, secretly evaluating Li Zekai in his heart, and he really had unique insights. At this time, he understood why Li Zekai would become a "little superman" in the future.

"Well, that's all I think." After Li Zekai finished speaking, he looked at Lu Shaohua, waiting for Lu Shaohua to have any other opinions.

"Haha, don't look at me like that. I have no objection. Your idea is very good. As long as it is integrated with reality and implemented, it will be difficult for Longteng to fail." Lu Shaohua seemed to have no objection on the surface, but he couldn't help but remind him, because now it is just paper talk after all, there will be many small setbacks when it is actually implemented.

"Well, I understand this." Li Zekai said seriously.

"Then let's do it this way. I don't think Mr. Huo will have any objection. Let's do it according to your idea." Lu Shaohua finally made the decision.

"Well, um...um, I have one more thing to say." Li Zekai seemed a little unable to say it.

"Oh? Just tell me if you have something to say. There are no outsiders here." Lu Shaohua was a little surprised. Why did Li Zekai suddenly become so shy?
