This year's Taurus Gathering is hosted by Fuyao CEO Cao Dewang, so the venue of the party is set to Hu Jian.

When Song Weiyang brought Du Xia to the venue, the hotel's luxurious private room had almost arrived.

Zhang Rujing seemed not affected by the infringement lawsuit, and was chatting with Duan Yongping and Zhang Xuanlong with a smile. In fact, he had been "kidnapping" by capital and official forces, and would expand nationwide crazily in the next two or three years. The opening speed of chip manufacturing plants is almost as fast as opening brand chain stores.

Of course, this will leave many hidden dangers, such as the factory opened by SMIC in Rongcheng has been incurring losses since its completion date. However, due to the rapid development of the global electronics market, these hidden dangers are covered up by the rapid development of SMIC, and it was not until the economic crisis broke out in 2008.

Fan Jianchuan was talking about the museum with great enthusiasm. He, a former real estate tycoon in Xikang Province, did not increase with the market environment when real estate was becoming more and more prosperous.

Real estate developers across the country are busy building commercial real estate or residential real estate, but Fan Jianchuan spent three years fully investing in the construction of the Anti-Japanese War Museum. 2005 was the 60th anniversary of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. Fan Jianchuan wanted to present a gift to his motherland, so he decided to buy 500 acres of land to build a museum settlement. It was originally planned to build eight museums, and five were built in one breath.

Officials from all over the country have become more powerful. Since Fan Jianchuan is a real estate developer, he thinks he is here to cheat the land. He is afraid that he will acquire 500 acres of land and only use 20 acres of land to build a museum. The remaining 480 acres of land are used for commercial development, so he rejected Fan Jianchuan's plan to build a museum.

Some officials even directly pointed out: "Old Fan, you have been the mayor, so don't harm us."

Fan Jianchuan was so amused that no matter how much he explained, it was useless. He even put down his face and asked Song Weiyang to give him a guarantee.

Song Weiyang's guarantee is still very useful, but Fan Jianchuan's funds are getting tighter and he can only enclose 500 acres of land in one small town. However, this town is in line with the temperament of the Anti-Japanese War Museum, because this is where Liu Xiang once worked and Liu Wencai's hometown. There are more than a dozen mansions of the Republic of China in the town - all of these mansions were bought by Fan Jianchuan.

Just over half a month ago, on the day of Benzene surrender, five museums in Fan Jianchuan opened at the same time, namely: the main pillar hall, the front battlefield hall, the Sichuan Army Anti-Japanese Hall, the US Military Hall aid to China, and the Anti-Japanese Prisoners' War Hall.

On the day of the opening, since everyone had something to do, only Liu Yonghao and Song Qizhi went to support him personally. When the Hu Jian party ended, Song Weiyang and all other members would go to the museum to receive patriotic education.

"Old Fan is very powerful," Liu Yonghao exclaimed, "his museums were not officially started due to land approval issues until the end of last year. In nine months, he personally lived on the construction site to direct and repaired all five museums and a square!"

Cao Dewang gave a thumbs up and said, "Xiao Fan is worthy of admiration. What we do is business, what he does is career!"

"I dare not take it, I dare not take it," Fan Jianchuan said modestly, "Actually, I am also thinking about commercialization, otherwise the funds will not be able to hold on. The Anti-Japanese War Museum will definitely not be able to make money, but around the museum, you can spend ten or twenty years as supporting facilities, inns, restaurants, films and television, summer camps, training, antique shops, etc. It can be cultural, tourism and leisure, and the national education base. I think it will definitely develop in the future."

"Your idea is very good, I'm afraid it's harder to do it." Wu Guodi commented.

Fan Jianchuan said: "I don't expect to make money with these supporting facilities, as long as it can subsidize the daily expenses of the museum."

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

The knock on the door sounded, and the waiter brought Song Weiyang and Du Xia in.

"Oh, the richest man in Song is here!" Zhang Xuanlong teased with a smile.

Duan Yongping asked: "Is this new friend who joined the club this year?"

Cai Zhiping said: "I know this guy, the owner of Jiashi, the world supermarket chain, and Mr. Du Xia, one of the top ten richest people in China last year!"

"Old Du, why are you here too?" Zhang Xuanlong greeted with a smile. He is worthy of being a professional face fruit. He also has a good personal relationship with Du Xia.

Facing more than a dozen bosses in the house, Du Xia naturally did not dare to take the airs and took the initiative to move forward and shake hands with everyone one by one.

"The weather is quite hot in Hu Jian," Song Weiyang unbuttoned the collar and sat down on the bench and said, "Since everyone knows you almost, I won't make a special introduction. Let the waiter serve the food. After taking the plane for several hours, I was so hungry."

After the dishes were served, everyone raised their glasses and stood up. Li Suqi smiled and said, "For this cup, first of all, congratulations to Lao Cao's family on giving up the US green card. Also congratulations to Lao Cao's company for becoming the first Chinese company to win the US Department of Commerce!"

"Thank you, thank you!" Cao Dewang smiled and drank it all.

In recent years, Chinese companies have been involved in anti-dumping cases, and Cao Dewang has won two anti-dumping lawsuits in Canada and the United States in four years.

Ten years ago, Cao Dewang's company was successfully listed, and his whole family got a US green card. He was tired of doing business for many years, so he wanted to sell the company for fun. Unfortunately, the foreign company he took over suddenly repents. He had no choice but to continue to do business and stay at the top of the Chinese rich list.

Perhaps it was the entangled anti-dumping lawsuit that made Cao Dewang realize the face of the Western capitalist world. After he won the US Department of Commerce, his family suddenly gave up his green card and returned to China. This has nothing to do with whether he was suppressed by the United States, because next year, the US Secretary of Commerce will call for a name to meet Cao Dewang and discuss the follow-up issues of the anti-dumping case in person. He will not do anything if he continues to stay in the United States.

According to Cao Dewang himself, Fuyao Glass has become the first in the industry. If he chooses to immigrate, Fuyao will become an American brand. And he chooses to give up his green card and return to China, then Fuyao Glass, the number one in the industry, is a Chinese brand.

As everyone celebrated, Duan Yongping's face was a little unnatural because he had already given up his Chinese nationality two years ago.

After a meal, everyone basically didn’t talk about business dealings, but were all talking about international and domestic current affairs and business environment policies. Occasionally, they also talked about industry gossip and interesting things between friends. The one who mentioned the most was Fan Jianchuan’s Anti-Japanese War Museum, and decided to visit the museum the next day.

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Lao Fan, I have made an appointment with more than 20 media outlets. When we visit the museum, they will send reporters to interview them."

"That's great, I have to give you a cup!" Fan Jianchuan was quite excited.

What the five museums lack most now is publicity. Although there are media reports, they have not received widespread attention. Song Weiyang brought more than 10 wealthy people over there, which can definitely trigger public opinion and make his museum famous quickly.

It was not until the evening that Song Weiyang asked Du Xia to explain his purpose, and everyone was drinking tea to consider whether to invest in a supermarket.

Cai Zhiping was the first to promise to inject capital, but he didn't have much money and could only take out 50 million. The reason why he was so active is that after he got into the Taurus Club, he has been working in commercial real estate and chain supermarkets over the years. It can be said that he is in the same industry as Du Xia.

The only difference is that Cai Zhiping is in the light textile market and chain supermarket, mainly concentrated in the Jiangnan generation; while Du Xia is in the building materials market and chain supermarket, mainly concentrated in North China and Northwest. Cai Zhiping knows how awesome Du Xia is in the industry, so he took the opportunity to invest 50 million yuan, and still invested in partnership with Song Weiyang, so he could not lose the deal.

Have you heard of CR Vanguard Supermarket?

At this time, Wanjia Supermarket was still developing in the south. It was not until two years later that it acquired Duxia's supermarket chain that instantly opened up in North China and Northwest. If Song Weiyang invested in Duxia, it would not be said that Wanjia Supermarket would be restricted to the south, but it would definitely make Wanjia Supermarket slow in the north for several years.

Although Cao Dewang, Li Suqiu and others were not interested in opening supermarkets, since Song Weiyang launched an investment plan, they also spent some money on face, with the minimum investment amount of 10 million yuan.

Guo Guangchang has barely recovered this year. He likes to invest across industries and immediately made an investment of 100 million yuan.

Only Zhang Xuanlong, Fan Jianchuan and Zhang Rujing remained silent. One of their assets was stocks, the other had their assets into the museum, and the other was even more "poor" and had no money to join in the business.

In the end, the 11 rich men including Song Weiyang and Taurus Capital jointly invested 1.2 billion yuan in the "Home World Supermarket Chain". Du Xia, one of China's top ten richest men, also joined the Taurus Club, with the core members of the Taurus Club reaching 15.

These are just cooperation intentions, and the specific details need to be discussed slowly, and in-depth investigations of Du Xia’s company must be conducted.

However, this cooperation also set the tone, and both parties made their own commitments: after obtaining capital injection, Du Xia and his team still have control over the supermarket. Unless they are found to have serious violations of business rules, other shareholders shall not interfere with the supermarket's operation and management (valid for five years). At the same time, Du Xia must lay off the group of foreign executives and close more than 60% of the branches opened in the past year. Equity repurchase must be completed within two years (equity repurchase is to pave the way for listing, and Du Xia has distributed too many shares to employees in order to demonstrate the internationalization route).
