Having known Stark for so long, I already have a full understanding of his character.

But even so, Shi Xiaolei still didn't expect that he would propose such a big project on a whim.

"Dude, it's such a big deal... I mean, at least tens of billions of investment, you just decided? Don't you need to go back and hold a meeting to discuss it with other shareholders?"

"I don't plan to take the company's account." Stark smiled casually: "And, it's only tens of billions, how much? I don't think so."

"..."

You are rich and rich. Shi Xiaolei rolled his eyes and had nothing to say.

"Speaking of which." Putting down the cigar, he picked up the glass on the tea table and took a sip of the red wine. Stark asked back, "What do you think? Do you want to mix it in?"

"Me?" Shi Xiaolei blinked in surprise.

"Yes, this is in China, and you are a Chinese. Isn't it a matter of course to ask you?" Stark smiled: "Who made you my best friend? Under normal circumstances, I would not Share a good opportunity to make money with others."

Facing Stark's invitation, Shi Xiaolei only hesitated for a moment.

"Let's forget it." Shaking his head firmly, Shi Xiaolei smiled with self-knowledge: "You know, I'm not such a hard-working person, and I've always had a lot of jobs like this. They don't like to mix in."

"From construction to management, there are professionals in charge, and you don't need to watch it yourself." Stark rolled his eyes speechlessly: "Invest some money, and then just sit and wait for the dividends. It's so labor-saving and easy to earn Opportunity, you don't even look at it?"

"It's enough to spend enough, no matter how much, I have nowhere to use it."

"Tsk tsk."

In front of Stark, he said that he didn't want to be involved, but when the preparations for this project started, Shi Xiaolei still took out a sum of money and joined it.

It's not that he regretted it and was reluctant to part with the profits brought by this project. It's not that Stark is begging for nothing and has to pull him to bet together. What really caused Shi Xiaolei to join in was actually a 'suggestion' from the official.

After all, Stark is not a simple businessman. In addition to this layer of identity, he is also a superhero holding American nationality.

Although through various investigations, I have a clear understanding of Stark's character and the fact that he always sings against the US government from time to time, but from the standpoint of the Chinese government, there will always be scruples. The cooperation project he proposed was naturally somewhat guarded.

Such a position is understandable.

But Stark is a stubborn character of "you don't let me do it, I will do it".

Therefore, after the Huaguo official gave the response of "serious consideration is required before a decision can be made", not only did he not dispel his thoughts, but he became more active on the contrary.

In this way, under Stark's several consecutive applications, Huaguo officials finally put forward a condition-cooperation is possible, but there are some preconditions. For example, the introduction of a guarantor, the modification of certain clauses in the contract agreement, and so on.

Regarding the joint venture ratio, management composition, personnel recruitment restrictions, etc., you can discuss it later. Among the conditions proposed by Huaguo officials, the most critical one is the 'guarantor'... Although Stark was a little depressed , was not reconciled to the reaction of the Chinese officials who did not fully trust him. However, he made a stubborn effort, and finally chose to make concessions and accepted these conditions in order to achieve his goal.

Well, it's also because there is Shi Xiaolei by my side, and I think he can play the role of 'guarantor'... Because I don't dislike Shi Xiaolei joining this project together, no, it should be said that I am happy to see the success, so, Stark will make concessions. On the contrary, if Stark didn't have Shi Xiaolei by his side, or other suitable candidates who could be accepted by him, obviously, with his personality, he would definitely choose to give up simply.

All in all, in one sentence, according to the conditions put forward by Huaguo officials, if Shi Xiaolei does not join, this project will not be completed.

I don’t want to ruin Stark’s good deeds, but I also think that after the hotel is built, it can provide some good-paying jobs for domestic compatriots... Well, the main thing is that Peng Mingwei from the consulate came forward to persuade him a few times, and listed For some reasons that made him feel very reasonable, in the end, Shi Xiaolei agreed to Stark's proposal, and took out some spare money to join this project.

Of course, negotiations and negotiations are all things after returning to the United States, which is a later story, so I won’t mention it here.

For now, Shi Xiaolei's attention is still more focused on 'New Year'.

Now that I'm back in China, of course I want to have a more authentic Chinese New Year.

"Miss Bei, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"What's the matter." With a slight smile, Bayonetta raised her hand, gently drew a circle, and summoned the pink portal.

I have been notified before, whether it is the ship girls on Niihao Island or the maids who stayed on the Long Island Manor~lightnovelpub.net~ have already made preparations in advance.

Through the portal, I saw Shi Xiaolei waiting here, and several sisters beside him. No need to greet, the girls who had already changed into new clothes immediately lined up and passed through the portal, and came to the yard where Shi Xiaolei was with a series of cheerful and lively laughter.

When all the ship girls arrived, Bayonetta opened the portal again and brought the maids from the Long Island Manor over.

In less than ten minutes, the originally clean courtyard was already filled with girls, big and small, and there was a sweet scent of powder in the air.

Some people may find it strange.

Didn't Shi Xiaolei say before that he didn't want to break the rules, so he took Stark's private jet back home? That being the case, why did he forget this self-restraint now, let Beunita open the portal, and let the ship girl and maids skip the entry visa hurdle and come directly to the country?

Because Shi Xiaolei paid for the resort he was in now, and the people who used to work in the resort also left for a temporary vacation according to his request. Even if the ship girls and maids 'smuggle' over, they will not be seen by outsiders and cause any trouble.

Of course, the more important thing is that Shi Xiaolei has already made a plan - pick up the girls, and it will only be a year. Their range of activities will not go beyond this resort. After eating the New Year's Eve dinner, staying overnight and arriving in the morning of the first day of the new year, the girls will go back through the portal again and will not stay here for long.

Once back and forth, it is very short, and I don't go outside to wander around.

Since he thought he could minimize the turmoil caused by the girls' arrival and not cause any trouble, Shi Xiaolei relaxed his restraint a little and took the current action.
