After dinner, Zhang Yifei and Lu Ningping came to the balcony as before and began to talk about some serious matters.

"Uncle Lu, how much is the four million dollars I gave you before, now?"

At the end of the Malaysian station, Zhang Yifei gave Lu Ningping all his worth, hoping that he could build a professional kart training base in the mainland and cultivate some potential genius teenagers in China.

As the saying goes, education must start with children. Zhang Yifei doesn’t want to leave after retirement, just like a meteor crossing the sky, and in the end nothing is left, and the country is still deserted.

"I have purchased a piece of land in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, spending more than one million US dollars, and then asked someone to purchase collision equipment such as frames in Italy, and temporarily used 300,000 US dollars. At present, there are about two million US dollars left, but the track construction and garage construction will cost money."

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Yifei felt a headache. He really regretted that he had little money when he was using it. In the past, he should have done more side jobs to make money!

"Uncle Lu, stop the track construction for the time being, and the remaining 2 million US dollars are used to buy Penguin shares. If the money is not enough, Uncle Lu, please find a way to lend me a little."

Zhang Yifei is not a person who borrows money easily, but he knows that Brother Ma can only buy 40% of Penguin's shares this time, and it will appreciate by more than ten times in a year.

Regarding Penguin Shares, Zhang Yifei plans to buy as much as he wants. He said before, he has to buy even if he sells it! After completing this business, he can really achieve the kind of free and easy way to make money all the numbers and money all the clouds!

"Don't worry, since you see Penguin Company like this, Uncle Lu will definitely support you with all his strength."

"Thank you, Uncle Lu, please help me contact Hong Kong Island rich and entrepreneurs tomorrow. Time is tight this time."

The Prost team's accident should be within this month. Zhang Yifei did not want the cooked pigeons to fly, so he must seize the time to buy shares first to ensure that the new car has sufficient research and development time.

He didn't want the Prost JS54 racing performance to improve, but the stability went down again. Just like this year's McLaren racing, the paper data was as fierce as a tiger, and there were various problems when actually running.

"Can your legs hold on?"

It is no problem to contact Hong Kong Island's wealthy people and the company, but now Zhang Yifei is dragging the leg with plaster to negotiate, which is really a little hard.

"Uncle Lu, we are all professional drivers, so there is no need to ask this question again."

"You boy..."

That night, Zhang Yifei and Junko Takeda were prepared to negotiate investment the next day in a hotel near Uncle Lu's house.

Lu Ningping was not idle for a moment. That night, he asked someone to ask Brother Xiao Ma’s address and was about to intercept him as soon as possible.

The next morning, before he even had time to eat breakfast, Zhang Yifei went to see Brother Ma.

To be honest, Zhang Yifei was still very excited when he was sitting in the car. After all, this super Internet tycoon who can be regarded as a later generation of China, a primary school student terminator, and a krypton gold maniac...

But when Zhang Yifei really met Brother Ma, he was far less than the temperament of a big boss like that of later generations. On the contrary, in front of Zhang Yifei, he acted more like a "primary school student".

Because in the eyes of Brother Ma, Zhang Yifei is currently a sports superstar in China, and his fame and status are far superior to his young entrepreneur. Moreover, Zhang Yifei is now an investor and can be regarded as a financial supporter's father. No matter from any aspect, Brother Ma is indeed in a weak position in front of Zhang Yifei.

To restrain his inner excitement, Zhang Yifei tried his best to talk to Brother Ma from a business perspective and negotiated to acquire forty percent of his Penguin Company's shares.

The negotiation process was much smoother than Zhang Yifei imagined, and there was no basic bargaining.

On the one hand, Zhang Yifei knew the future prospects of Penguin Company, and only 40% of the shares were quoted at US$2.2 million. If he still had a counter-off, it would be an insult to Brother Ma!

On the other hand, Brother Ma has been jealous and despised during this period. He has been rejected by many times when he has asked those big guys to help venture capital. The company's share price has also dropped again and again. He has no confidence in himself and does not know how Penguin should make a profit.

Zhang Yifei, who suddenly appeared, decided to invest in Penguin Company without saying a word with an extremely sincere attitude and appreciation. This made Brother Ma feel a sense of his own value in his heart, and even a mentality of dying for his confidant!

It is estimated that as long as Zhang Yifei raises his arms and shouts, he will probably accept Brother Ma as his younger brother...

In order to avoid the long and long dreams, after reaching an oral agreement, Zhang Yifei asked Takeda Junko to stay and fully handle the details of the equity transfer contract. After all, Takeda Junko is now his driver's agent, and these things happen to be very suitable for her profession.

As for Zhang Yifei himself, he followed Lu Ningping to negotiate with Hong Kong Island's powerful companies and wealthy people one by one, hoping that they could invest in themselves, or jointly invest in the Prost fleet.

At this moment, Zhang Yifei began to feel the mental journey of Brother Ma before. In a few days, all the Hong Kong companies and wealthy people he met gave were rejections. Some people even showed a contemptuous attitude, believing that Zhang Yifei didn’t understand what business was involved in?

Moreover, facing these old foxes, Zhang Yifei's deception skills are not enough, and he is simply at the level of elementary school students in front of them. As for the real business prospects and reasons for profit, Zhang Yifei cannot say.

It is impossible to tell others that they are from the future, so this matter does not need to be discussed. Just listen to me and you can make a profit without losing money, right?

The successive setbacks made Zhang Yifei feel like he was hit hard. He was too naive before. He thought that relying on his identity as a sports superstar, he could easily get the support of these rich people.

Now it seems that many people are willing to try the level of one or two million US dollars, but the amount of tens of millions of US dollars is still too large. Without sufficient profit guarantee, even venture capital funds are unwilling to intervene.

To put it bluntly, before you win the title, you can’t just rely on the three words Zhang Yifei to sell money. Who knows if it will be short-lived and eventually become indifferent to everyone.

After all, f1 is a field that has never been broken through, and most people actually have no confidence.

Moreover, the "running" for several consecutive days also made Zhang Yifei's injured right leg start to become congested. Even if he is very physically compatible, he cannot withstand such a thread.

Just when Zhang Yifei felt exhausted physically and mentally and didn't know where to go next, he received a call from He Lang from Yanjing.

"Yifei, you are going to visit Yanjing. I have several companies that I intend to cooperate with."

This sound is like a timely help for Zhang Yifei.

To be honest, he is not very confident about the investment in mainland enterprises in this era.

Because if the F1 equation had not emerged, it would have to wait until the Donghai Station started in 2004 that most ordinary people would know that there was the f1 thing. For enterprises, except for the old FAW, state-owned enterprises such as Dongfeng, such as Geely, Chery, and BYD, which were well-known in later generations, they only had a few years of establishment.

To put it nicely, it is still in the imitation stage. To put it bluntly, it is still at the level of copying foreign models. If you want them to sponsor and invest in Formula One, it is equivalent to learning to fly without even learning to run.

Sponsorship and investment of state-owned enterprises are not the kind of advertising sponsorship that before. The real acquisition and operation of an F1 fleet faces many policy and regulatory problems, and cannot be solved simply in one or two months.

So Zhang Yifei called He Lang more because he was more of a mentality of being a living horse, leaving a glimmer of hope for himself. What he didn't expect was that this glimmer of hope became a dawn!

"Which companies are real or fake?"

Maybe the surprise was too sudden, and Zhang Yifei couldn't believe it.

"Will I still joke with you about this kind of thing? There are Huaxia Petrochemicals you have worked with before, CCTV, Guangzhou-Shenzhen Patriot Group, Zhejiang Province's Huali Automobile Group, etc. These companies have all intentions after getting the news. You can come to Yanjing as soon as possible to have an interview with them."

"Damn, so much?"

When Zhang Yifei heard this, he was surprised. He thought that it would be almost the same as there was one in the mainland, but he didn't expect that He Lang would just say four of them casually!

And when he heard the names of these companies, Zhang Yifei suddenly felt a familiar memory coming to his mind, as if these companies had all sponsored the F1 fleet in history.

Needless to say, Huaxia Petrochemical is the naming agent of China's East China Sea Grand Prix, and is preparing to compete with giants such as Shell and Exxon Petroleum overseas with the help of the F1 east wind.

CCTV is a domestic broadcaster of F1 and bought the copyright of the event. It also held the idea of ​​going international and controlling the right to speak. In 2003, it sponsored the Jordan team for US$12 million, and the logo was still under the most conspicuous car camera.

As for Patriot Group, it was once the largest electronics manufacturer in China, such as mp3 and mp4, which was popular. However, it sponsored F1 until 2007, and it sponsored one of the three giants with a total of 19 million US dollars.

The only thing that surprised Zhang Yifei was the last Huali Automobile Group. It has never sponsored the F1 team in history. The real rise will take 10 years to complete the feat of snake swallowing elephant and acquire the Swedish Volvo Car brand.
Chapter completed!
