There is a bamboo forest located in the suburbs of Yuhang City. Although it is early winter, the ornamental bamboo looks lush and green. Behind the bamboo forest is a winding stone road leading to the small pavilion in the middle of the lake. There are three people sitting in the center of the pavilion. In this Chinese-style environment, these people are all foreigners. Sitting on the east side is a handsome white man, who is Nicholas, the Asian president of the Ferrer Group.

Several beautiful women wearing cheongsams were serving next to them. A small stone table was placed in the middle of the pavilion, with Yuhang's delicacies, West Lake vinegar fish, Dongpo pork, Longjing shrimp, Qianlong fish head, etc., and several kinds of fruits were placed on it. The waiter held a copper pot in his hand and filled a cup for the guests from time to time. Everyone was communicating in English to discuss the current international economic situation.

Nicholas coughed lightly and said lightly: "Today we are summoning everyone to discuss the subsequent development of the Northern Cross Star Group. Now there are a lot of negative news about us on the Internet. If nothing unexpected happens, there are rumors of walking on Qihuang Charity. We must deal with it quickly."

"Nicholas, don't worry, Bill is the investor of the largest media in China. He can help you handle everything easily." Andrew smiled easily.

Bill nodded and said, "I have notified the assistant to make arrangements. If nothing unexpected happens, when we finish our meal, all negative news will be deleted."

Nicholas shrugged and frowned, "I believe in your strength. However, Qihuang Charity has obtained the red-headed document from the Ministry of Civil Affairs and is on the same starting line as us. It is more difficult for Northern Cross Group to quickly reach cooperation with the government because those government officials are afraid and they dare not give us the benefits."

Andrew waved his hand and said impatiently: "Don't be afraid of this and that. The Northern Cross Group has a solid foundation. I have already learned about Qihuang Charity. It has just been built for less than a year. Behind it is the New Traditional Chinese Medicine Alliance. Traditional Chinese Medicine? This is really ridiculous."

Bill also nodded, agreeing with Andrew's point of view, "Traditional Chinese medicine is not recognized internationally, and only in China has room for survival. Many Chinese medicine practitioners are liars, and they should not take such opponents seriously. We should focus on other international capitals. As far as I know, several venture capitalists have also smelled the biggest business opportunities that the aging in China is coming in full swing, and the elderly care industry will appear."

Nicholas shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You don't know enough about Qihuang Charity. This organization is indeed a public welfare organization built on the basis of the New Traditional Chinese Medicine Alliance, but his president is named Su Tao, and he is the actual controller of Sanwei Group."

"Sanwei Group?" Bill frowned and thought, "Is it the Chinese company that has become famous in the international luxury goods industry recently?"

"That's right." Nicholas said silently, "He just acquired Ruixing Group. Although Ruixing Group is not well-known internationally, it is definitely in the leading position in China's medical and health system and is our Feirui Group's largest local competitor in the Chinese market."

Andrew waved his hand softly and smiled faintly: "You are too nervous. Although the other party is very powerful, we must have confidence in our plans."

Nicholas shook his head and smiled bitterly, took out a few documents from his bag, handed them to the two of them, and said, "It seems you are taking it lightly. This is the notice I just received."

Bill frowned and exclaimed: "What? These governments actually reject our investment? Are they broken brains? We can create so many political achievements for them." Andrew finished reading carefully and said in a deep voice: "How did Qihuang Charity do?"

Nicholas sighed and said helplessly: "The investment environment in China is different from other places. Although the market is huge, the degree of freedom is very low. China's superior departments are preparing to investigate the local government. This is a clear signal to support Qihuang Charity. In addition to being a successful entrepreneur, Su Tao is also a very excellent doctor. He provides health care services to several prestigious officials in China. So what Su Tao is most powerful is not economic advantages, but political resources."

"What should we do now? If these governments cancel cooperation with us, it will seriously affect our progress." Bill's personality is rather irritable, with anger in his eyes. "Nicholas, the Northern Cross Group project is led by Ferry. If it fails, you must bear the primary responsibility."

Nicholas smiled helplessly and said, "I understand what you mean. Feirui Group has invested a lot of money in this project and cannot bear the losses. Since Su Tao has the support of the official background of China, we also need to find a reliable Chinese to help us."

Andrew sighed and said, "If you have anything, just say it."

Nicholas said in a deep voice: "I want to let a person enter the core of the Northern Cross Group. His name is Qin Jingyu, he is a successful businessman and has great strength in Yanjing. If he can help us, the Northern Cross Group project will be able to be carried out smoothly."

"I've heard of this person's name. He is very capable and difficult to deal with." Bill frowned sensitively.

Andrew said: "It is difficult to deal with as an opponent, but as a partner, we can provide us with more help. He can join us, but he must take out some money and buy the corresponding shares."

Nicholas shook his head and smiled, "It is unrealistic to let him buy shares. Today, let everyone sit together to discuss, hoping to reach a consensus. The three of us each took out 3.5% of the shares and provided them to Qin Jingyu for free. Qin Jingyu provides his own network resources for the development of Northern Cross Star Group in China, helping us to better promote this project."

Bill frowned and said unhappy: "Free? Do you think of us as fools?"

Andrew was dissatisfied with this: "The top leaders of the group will not agree."

Nicholas sighed helplessly: "Then I can only temporarily stop the Northern Cross Group's project, because if I continue to compete with Qihuang Charity, I will only suffer greater losses."

Bill frowned and said, "Are you threatening us?"

Nicholas shook his head and said, "It's not a threat, but there's no better way."

Andrew sighed and said, "I will report this to the group and let them make a decision."

Nicholas reminded: "We need to look at it a little longer."

The conversation was not particularly harmonious, and Bill and Andrew had no interest in continuing to taste the food and quickly decided to leave.

Nicholas came to the garden behind the pavilion, and Qin Jingyu was strolling and fishing carefully. Nicholas said lightly: "Andrew and Bill have left. Although they are angry, they will agree with my suggestion."

Qin Jingyu now revealed Su Tao's whereabouts to Stein, and Stein naturally had to fight tooth for tooth.
