Li Zihong pondered for a moment and understood the meaning behind the words "financial tsunami".

"So, how much do you think the Li family should invest?" he asked.

Zhou Qi's position in Li Zihong's heart is obviously extraordinary, especially in the field of finance.

Without further ado, Zhou Qi said bluntly: "I plan to invest 6 billion."

He would not easily ask the Li family for financial support. This was both a test and a test of the depth of their relationship.

Zhou Qi wanted to see how much risk Li Zihong was willing to take in order to cooperate with him.

If the other party is hesitant, then future real estate cooperation will need to be re-evaluated.

After all, there is no need to change his course in order to join the big ship of the Li family. This is not in line with his principles.

Li Zihong did not respond immediately, but took a sip of the teacup. After a moment, he made a decision: "I can mobilize 12 billion and leave it to you to handle."

This amount is huge, and even for the Li family it is a considerable amount of working capital.

Taking out so much cash at one time is not only not easy, but also comes with considerable risks. But this also proves Li Zihong's trust in Zhou Qi.

Li Jianan, who was standing next to him, widened his eyes in disbelief and wanted to speak, but was stopped by his father's stern gaze.

Although Li Jiaxin recognized Zhou Qi's abilities, she felt a little uneasy about handing over such a huge amount of funds to an outsider to manage.

Zhou Qi was surprised by Li Zihong's courage. He originally thought that the amount provided by the Li family would be similar to his own, but he did not expect it to be twice as much.

After making this decision, Li Zihong seemed to be relieved, as if a heavy stone had been lifted from his heart.

This 12 billion commitment is indeed a risky but brave choice for the family leader.

The future of the Li family depends on him alone, and every decision he makes affects the fate of the family.

Zhou Qi's expression revealed a hint of surprise. Li Zihong smiled slightly and joked, "Seeing you like this, I feel quite happy."

“If you don’t bravely move forward in the wind and waves and do something great in your life, then your life is really in vain.”

Li Zihong said with emotion: "When I was young, I didn't have the mind and courage like you."

"My intuition tells me that I should take a gamble with you this time. If I miss this opportunity, I might regret it for the rest of my life." Li Zihong said frankly.

Zhou Qi responded politely: "Mr. Li, thank you for the compliment!"

Li Zihong shook his head and said, “This is not a compliment, but I really think you have extraordinary momentum in some aspects.

Take the matter of you taking over Tang's Real Estate for example. Even now, I don't think I have your courage and insight."

"Among your peers, you are definitely the best one!" Li Zihong praised.

He turned to Zhou Qi and said earnestly: "Perhaps the outside world thinks that it is our Li family that supports you, but I believe that in the near future it may be you who will support the Li family."

Faced with such praise, most people would be modest, but Zhou Qi just smiled faintly, took a sip of tea, and said calmly:

"Now that we have formed an alliance, we are one body, sharing honor and disgrace."

Some people may find it funny to hear this. How dare a young man from the mainland say that he is on par with the Li family, one of the four largest families in Hong Kong?

However, Li Jianan does not see it that way. Any great cause is developed from scratch.

The Li family did not become a wealthy family from the beginning. They have worked hard to get to where they are today.

Zhou Qi has shown great potential and has achieved remarkable success in just three years. His business layout is far-reaching and he has made a lot of money in the past two days.

Li Zihong nodded and smiled, "Very good. Many young people are a bit arrogant, but you hardly have that, only confidence. Talking to you feels like communicating with people of the same age."

"It was Mr. Li who gave me this opportunity." Zhou Qi replied with a smile.

Li Zihong continued, "It was you who gave our Li family the opportunity."

This statement is not empty talk. If Zhou Qi can grasp the upcoming market changes, with his talents, it will bring huge benefits to the Li family.

Without Zhou Qi's help, the Li family might find it difficult to cope with the upcoming challenges.

Li Jiaxin also joined in: "My dad rarely appreciates young people like this, and he is very picky about me and my brother. You are the first person he values ​​so much."

"Yesterday I heard that you were interested in the Hong Kong City entertainment industry, so I told my father, and he also took this matter very seriously," she added.

"Thank you, Mr. Li." Zhou Qi thanked.

Li Zihong waved his hand gently and said, "After Jiaxin mentioned you to me before, I kept an eye on you. It seems that you are more interested in acquisitions than developing the Hong Kong City market."

"It just so happens that I learned that there are two entertainment companies that are interested in selling. After some comparison, I have selected one of them for you."

"This company used to be among the top five film distributors in Hong Kong."

Zhou Qi was slightly startled, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Mr. Li, are you talking about Asia City Pictures?"

Li Zihong was slightly surprised: "How did you know? Besides me, no more than five people in Hong Kong know about the sale of Asia City."

"I have been following the latest developments in Hong Kong entertainment these past two days and have also learned a little about the existing entertainment companies in Hong Kong." Zhou Qi explained: "When Mr. Li mentioned that this company was once among the top five, I knew what was going on."

“Big guys like the Heung brothers and the Shaw family, who made their fortunes from movies, would never sell out their jobs.

As for the other two companies, one is backed by a wealthy family and has plenty of money, while the other is a group with entertainment as its core business and would never consider selling the company.

With this calculation, the only one left is Atlanta Films."

Li Zihong nodded repeatedly and said approvingly, "Yes, it is indeed Asia City Films. Xiao Zhou, it seems that you are quite knowledgeable about Hong Kong entertainment."

Zhou Qi responded: "Actually, that's not the case. Information about Hong Kong entertainment in the mainland is relatively closed, and a lot of news can't be passed on."

Li Zihong nodded: "Then how did you know?"

"I've read some news about Hong Kong entertainment recently. It's quite interesting to read those gossip stories occasionally." Zhou Qi said with a smile.

Li Zihong shook his head and smiled: "I am so glad that you are our ally and not our enemy. It is rare to gain in-depth insight into an industry through gossip."

"Mr. Li, are Atlanta Pictures really planning to sell it?" Zhou Qi asked with concern.

“Yang Cheng, the owner of Yacheng, is my old friend for many years and he is indeed interested in selling.

The Hong Kong film industry has been in a downturn in recent years, and he plans to shift his focus to finance, so he is considering selling the entertainment industry." Li Zihong replied.

"I know this situation, but Hong Kong movies will soon see a turnaround, such as the God of Gamblers series, Young and Dangerous, and the upcoming revival of action movies, as well as the rise of Stephen Chow."
