After receiving Henry's investment, New Oriental immediately caused a huge sensation in China. Even the central government was alarmed. The News Network even gave a one-minute report that night, which made Henry extremely shocked.

In 2001, "News Network" is still China's most influential and viewership program, with over 100 million viewers. New Oriental can show up in the show for one minute, which is more useful than how much money it spends on advertising. Overnight, New Oriental is a household name! The next day, Xindong received tens of thousands of consultation calls! A large number of friends, including Yu Hongmin, were stunned...

This is what the Chinese government thinks. The world's richest man Henry Williams has come to China to invest, and he invests in China's education. How important is this to China's development? I must express my strong support here! Therefore, not only does the "News Broadcast" vigorously promote and praise New Oriental, but also open the door to New Oriental. Regarding school land, as long as New Oriental wants it, it can get it at a very favorable price. At the same time, it also expresses to the outside world the attitude of the Chinese government towards foreign investors!

With a wealth of RMB 12 billion, New Oriental can naturally enclose land in major cities across the country. To build a school with an average of 300 million yuan, and prepare to build 40 schools across the country.

With the school, the teachers must catch up.

In addition to recruiting people, New Oriental's main method is to train its own students and let them stay in school to teach. These students are familiar with New Oriental's teaching mode, and secondly, under the guidance of New Oriental, their abilities are sufficient to be qualified as teachers. It is always easier and more useful to pay attention to the cultivation and reserve of company talents than to recruit people from the outside world! In China today, teachers are already inadequate, and good and bad are uneven. Naturally, it is undoubtedly the best choice to cultivate relevant teachers by yourself!

At this moment, New Oriental is painful and happy.

Too many students and too few teachers.

Too much funding, too few schools.

New Oriental had to restrict the enrollment of new students, so as not to reduce the quality of teaching.

One of Henry's purposes of investing in New Oriental was for Madagascar, but he did not raise any matter about Madagascar to New Oriental for the time being, so as not to make the outside world suspect that he had planned for Madagascar. Henry chose to take control of Madagascar in the same way that Zhao Kuangyin was "pushed" by his subordinates in Chen Qiaoyi. They were all "forced"! Henry wanted the people from Madagascar to take the initiative to let Henry take control of Madagascar. In this way, international resistance would become minimal, and the United States would have nothing to say. Even if it wanted to find fault, there would be no excuses.

Therefore, before this, Henry can not show any signs of trying to conquer Madagascar! As for how to be added by the "yellow robe", well, Henry had a plan...

Subsequently, Henry prepared to merge the New Oriental Cooking School.

However, I don't know if I don't investigate, Henry is really surprised by the investigation. It turned out that New Oriental Cooking School was one of the brands of the "Xinhua Group", a large private enterprise in Anhui. The Xinhua Group was founded in 1988 and has four major vocational education brands: "Xinhua Computer Education", "New Oriental Cooking Education", "Wantong Automobile Education" and "Paris Clothing Education".

As a result, Henry transferred the object of the merger from the New Oriental Cooking School to the Xinhua Group.

Henry couldn't do everything by himself. The merger of the New Oriental Group and the Xinhua Group was handed over to Yu Hongmin by Henry. He himself went to Shandong by plane. Of course, his purpose was to invest in Lanxiang. In China, Henry had never heard of other excavator schools. He blamed Shandong Lanxiang for being so awesome and leading to other excavators. The school is eclipsed!

Henry once wondered how many excavator talents would be needed to develop a place as big as Madagascar, at least tens of thousands...

Two days later, Henry came to Shandong Lanxiang School.

It was Lan Xiang’s principal Rong Lanxiang who came to receive Henry. Because of New Oriental's "learning from the past", Rong Lanxiang could easily guess Henry's purpose.

However, it is not difficult to see from his warm reception of Henry that he welcomes Henry to invest in Lanxiang School. Under his leadership, Henry visited Lanxiang School. However, the feeling for Henry was different from the legendary Lan Xiang, and he felt a little disappointed. Perhaps this is because Lan Xiang is still small...

While walking, Rong Lanxiang introduced the history of Lan Xiang to Henry.

Before 1988, Lan Xiang was not Lan Xiang and was unknown. This year, the army began to engage in the "tertiary industry." Rong Lanxiang seized this opportunity and cooperated with the army to open the Lanxiang School. There are many benefits of working with the army. Not only can it provide a factory site, but more importantly, it can also bring students. They are all transferred to the army and need training skills! From then on, Lanxiang Technical School began to embark on the "mythical" path step by step.

After the tour, everyone came to President Rong Lanxiang’s office. He poured Henry a glass of water and said: "Mr. Williams, I heard that you just invested in New Oriental Group..."

"Yes, China has a population of 1.3 billion. I think China's education industry has great potential for development!"

Henry looked at him, smiled, and said, "Lanxiang Technical School is also good. We all know that China’s development can be described as rapid changes. Major cities across the country are developing and there are many high-rise buildings that need a lot of excavation. Robot talent!"

"Yes, in recent years, China's development speed is indeed very fast, and the number of students who come to Lanxiang to study is many times more than in previous years!"

"President Rong Lanxiang, with all due respect, although Lanxiang has tens of thousands of students, the school is simple and the site for students to practice excavators is too small, which completely limits the development of Lanxiang Technical School. So..." Henry paused. Pause, smiled and asked, "I wonder if your school needs investment?"

Rong Lanxiang nodded and said: "Mr. Williams is willing to invest, of course I welcome it!"

"President Rong Lanxiang is very happy to be able to agree. As far as I know, Lan Xiang's legal person is the military side, and you are just the administrator of the school! If Lan Xiang wants to accept investment, I am afraid that he must first obtain the military's consent!"

When Rong Lanxiang heard this, he laughed, "Mr. Williams, you are right. But since 1997, the army was restricted from engaging in tertiary industry, so in 2000 , I bought 50 acres of land at the foot of Jinan Yaoshan, built a new campus, and prepared to go solo, so that Lanxiang Technical School was decoupled from the army!!!"

This is good!

Henry also didn't want to deal with the military, trouble!

Rong Lanxiang continued: "If you can get your investment, you can not only speed up the construction of the new campus, but also expand the area of ​​the campus, and the entire Lanxiang Technical School can quickly move over!"

"Well, I can invest in you now!" Henry thought for a while and said, "Is 3 billion yuan enough?!"

"Enough is enough!" Rong Lanxiang nodded repeatedly and secretly said that he is worthy of being the world's richest man. He is so extraordinary that he can only open his mouth for 3 billion yuan!

"Mr. Williams, how many shares do you plan to own?"

"60% is not much!" Henry laughed.

"Not much, not much!" Rong Lanxiang agreed without much consideration. With the development funds of RMB 3 billion, he bought land, expanded the campus, and recruited more students. Once the scale came up, it would not only make money for tuition, but also make money. Lanxiang Technical School can participate in basic necessities, food, shelter, transportation, entertainment, consumption, etc., so you can make a lot of money!

"Then I will let the lawyer draw up the contract and sign it tomorrow!" Henry said.

"Ok, no problem……"

Thus, on the second day, Henry completed his investment plan for Lan Xiang. At the same time, Yu Hongmin has been in contact with Xinhua Group. Of course, the results of their negotiations are not as fast as Henry's. What are the assets of the two sides? After the merger, how many shares will each side hold? In short, it is a lot of trouble. In large mergers and acquisitions of this kind, professional investment banks or financial advisory service agencies, such as Goldman Sachs, Citibank, Blackstone Investment Asset Management, etc., are usually invited to help. Henry recommended Blackstone to Yu Hongmin, because Blackstone Group is also Henry's industry.

Finally came to Jinan, Shandong, and Henry naturally wanted to travel here. Jinan is also known as "Spring City". Because of "every family springs and weeping willows in every household", there is a famous 5a-level scenic spot of the world's first spring, including Baotu Spring, Daming Lake, Black Tiger Spring, Pearl Spring, Baishi Spring, etc. The Twelve Springs are named after the Jiangnan scenery. Of course, the most famous is Daming Lake. At the moment, the trilogy of "Han Zhu Ge Ge" is being replayed, and the ratings are still high in a mess!

Just "Remember Xia Yuhe by Daming Lake?" attracted countless tourists.

The scenery of Daming Lake is beautiful and beautiful. The kites on the lake are flying and leaping, the lotus is full of ponds, and the painting boats walk through. The banks are thick with willows, flowers are like brocades, tourists are like weaving, and they are dotted with various pavilions, terraces, buildings, pavilions, distant mountains, near water and clear sky. Blended into one color, like a huge colorful picture scroll. Henry was in it, and he felt like he was in a fairyland. At this time, Henry couldn't help but think of Zhao Wei, Fan Bingbing, Ruby Ruby. They will be big stars in the future, and it is better to sign them under his own company as soon as possible.

If the "Three Sisters of Huanzhu" were all their own... Uh, artist, how would it feel? !

Since Henry invested in the establishment of Hengdian, he has established imdb Plaza in China early in the model of Wanda Plaza, and established imdb China Theater, imdb China TV drama business company, imdb China Film Investment Corporation and imdb China brokerage company. Under Henry's management of herding sheep, these companies have developed vigorously. Some of the more popular Chinese TV dramas, movies, and imdb have participated in investment. For example, the popular 2001 TV drama "Deep Love and Rain" was invested and shot by imdb China TV drama company, such as "Crouching Tiger". "Hidden Dragon" was invested by imdb China Film Investment Corporation, and the Chinese New Year blockbuster film, directed by Feng Xiaogang, to be released at the end of 2001, was also invested by imdb China Film Investment Corporation.

What a pity to Henry is that although imdb's agent company has signed many actors, Zhao Wei, Fan Bingbing and Ruby Lin are not there.

Zhao Wei did not join the brokerage company, but has a ** broker—her sister-in-law Chen Rong.

Ruby Lin signed a contract with Zhongjie Cultural Communication Company and became its artist. The strength of this company does not seem to be good, and it has no reputation.

Although Fan Bingbing is the least popular among the three, he chose to sign in Huayi Brokerage Company, one of the best in China in 2000.

The importance of brokers or brokerage companies to artists is self-evident. In the following years, Zhao Wei was full of ups and downs, but Ruby Lin's stardom gradually declined, but it was a "golden lock" with few scenes that year. Fan Bingbing will be in full swing in the future. It is not difficult to see that the selection is very important to the agent!

The next day, Henry set off for Shenzhen, and did not intend to intervene in the merger between New Oriental Group and Xinhua Group. Henry intends to train Yu Hongmin so that he will be able to help him manage the company in the future!

Henry called imdb China's brokerage company on his private plane and asked them to dig Zhao Wei, Fan Bingbing and Ruby Lin as much as possible. If the other company can't release people, it doesn't matter even if the contract is breached. It's amazing to pay compensation!

The headquarters of the icq China branch is located in Shenzhen. Henry's first place to go after arriving in Shenzhen is here.

Here, Henry met Ma Huateng face to face for the first time. He looked good, was tall, and wore a pair of glasses. He looked a bit literate. However, he is far from the demeanor of a previous life boss. Seeing Henry at this moment is very excited, as if a pilgrim saw God.

"Ma Huateng, hello, nice to meet you!"

"Mr. Williams, hello, nice to meet you!"

Henry patted Ma Huateng on the shoulder, and said, "How is it, how are you doing at icq?"

"Very good! After I joined the company, I realized that I used to be a frog in the bottom of the well. I didn't expect that icq company had so many high-tech fields of research, especially in the area of ​​artificial intelligence. The research is extremely deep. There is no company in the world. Comparing with the artificial intelligence siri program!!!" Ma Huateng said with great feeling.

"Haha, it's okay, Google is also developing artificial intelligence, and its strength is also very strong. It should not be underestimated!"

"Google? The parent company of isearch?" Ma Huateng took a deep breath and secretly said that if google enters the artificial intelligence program ~lightnovelpub.net~ with the strength of google, it will undoubtedly be the rival of icq.

"Yes!" Henry nodded and smiled faintly.

At this time, Henry and his party had already arrived inside the company.

"Mr. Williams, there must be something about your coming to icq company this time?" Ma Huateng asked.

"Yes, that's right." Henry paused and said, "Shanghai Shanda Network Development Co., Ltd., have you heard of it?"

"Shanda? Isn't that Chen Tianqiao's company!" Ma Huateng doubted, "Mr. Williams, I heard that Chen Tianqiao used all his assets to represent a game in South Korea, which seems to be called "Legend"... Are you interested in this game? However, as far as I know, this game is not selling well in Korea..."

Henry showed a mysterious smile: "What you said is correct, but maybe it will achieve unprecedented success in China!"
