Chapter 214

On the other end of the line, a burst of laughter and Michael Corleone's magnetic voice rang out.

"Things have been pretty good lately; the family is on the right track, and business is going smoothly."

Ni Yongyao exchanged a few simple pleasantries and then said: "Michael, I wonder if you have any interest in the communications field?"

"Communications field? What specifically?"

Michael Corleone asked.

"Mobile phone business."

Ni Yongyao said.

"Mobile phones? That's high technology. The Corleone family hasn't ventured into that yet, but I can see that technology is developing rapidly now, and the future will definitely be a technological era."

Michael Corleone said.

Ni Yongyao nodded, very much approving of the vision of this Corleone family godfather.

From the nineties to the twenty-first century, in just a few decades, the world had undergone earth-shaking changes with the advancement of technology.

"There is an opportunity right now that can allow the Corleone family to venture into the communications field; it just depends on whether you, Michael, want to do it."

Ni Yongyao said.

"Ni, stop beating around the bush and speak more clearly."

Michael Corleone's curiosity was piqued by Ni Yongyao.

Ni Yongyao smiled and said: "I have a communications company in Hong Kong, and the mobile phone we recently developed has hit the market with quite a good response. People from Motorola came to me, intending to cooperate with me to secure the overseas agency rights for the phone. I agreed to them, but one of the conditions is that it must be a three-party cooperation.

For the US market, I would like to invite you to join. How about it, Michael, are you interested?"

"Ni, you're not joking, are you?"

After hearing Ni Yongyao's words, Michael Corleone asked hurriedly.

"You know I never joke."

Ni Yongyao said.

"So you mean everything you said is true? Your new mobile phone actually made Motorola come to your door to cooperate?"

Michael Corleone was very clear about Motorola's status in the communications field; in 1991, it was no exaggeration to say that Motorola was the absolute hegemon.

And for such a large company to want to cooperate with Ni Yongyao made Michael Corleone feel like it was science fiction.

After all, just a few months ago, Michael Corleone had chatted with Ni Yongyao in person; he couldn't imagine that in such a short time, Ni Yongyao had already undergone such a massive change.

"Ni, the Corleone family is definitely in on this business."

Michael Corleone said.

The Corleone family had dominated New York for many years, but they had always focused on traditional industries. Now that such a good opportunity was placed before him, Michael Corleone naturally agreed without hesitation.

Michael Corleone trusted Ni Yongyao very much and knew that the latter would never cheat him on such a matter.

"Then if you have time, Michael, come to Hong Kong, and the three of us will sign the contract together."

Ni Yongyao said.

"No problem."

Michael Corleone agreed immediately.

After hanging up the phone, Ni Yongyao looked at Charlie and said: "Now you can report to headquarters. A few days later, when the people from the Corleone family arrive in Hong Kong, we can officially begin our cooperation."

"Yes, Mr. Ni."

Charlie nodded, feeling very surprised in his heart.

He hadn't expected Ni Yongyao to have connections in the US, and with the Corleone family at that.

"This is our first cooperation, so I plan to test the waters in two countries first: one is the US, and the other is the Bear."

Ni Yongyao said.

"The Bear? It's not easy to get things done there, and those guys are extremely poor."

Charlie said with a frown.

The standoff between the US and the Bear Alliance had lasted for many years, and by now, it could basically be declared that the Bear had failed completely, with the entire alliance on the verge of collapse.

"You don't need to worry about that; my friend has extensive connections within the Bear, enough to handle everything."

Ni Yongyao said.

As for the Bear's consumption power, that is even less of a question; although a considerable number of people are going hungry, there is no shortage of people eating until their mouths are dripping with oil.

"Everything will be as Mr. Ni says."

Seeing Ni Yongyao's insistence, Charlie found it difficult to say anything more; after all, he was the one asking for favors now, and he couldn't afford to be tough.

Immediately, Ni Yongyao dialed another string of numbers.

As for the Bear, the person Ni Yongyao contacted was naturally the White Widow.

The White Widow came from a family of arms dealers, and her connections could be said to span the entire Bear Alliance. Opening up the market for the Galaxy II was simple enough—at least much easier than selling arms and Bear assets.

The call was connected quickly.

"Nia, there's a business I need your help with."

Ni Yongyao said straight to the point.

Nia was the White Widow's real name, which Ni Yongyao only learned after their relationship had grown closer.

"What business?"

The White Widow's lazy voice sounded on the phone.

"A mobile phone; I plan to sell it within the Bear. Besides you, there is also the Motorola company."

Ni Yongyao briefly explained the situation.

Without any surprise, the White Widow agreed directly; she would handle all the procedures on the Bear's side, ensuring that the Galaxy II could successfully enter the Bear market.

"After helping you with this, how are you going to thank me?"

After finishing the business, the White Widow switched back to her lazy tone and asked.

"When you come to Hong Kong, you will naturally know."

Ni Yongyao said indifferently.

Although the White Widow, as a Bear, had great stamina, it was far inferior compared to Ni Yongyao's physical fitness.

Ni Yongyao could easily bring the White Widow to heel.

"Then see you in Hong Kong."

The White Widow hung up the phone after saying this.

"The Bear market is also settled; next, it depends on you."

Ni Yongyao looked at Charlie and said.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ni, I will communicate with headquarters."

Charlie said.

In the blink of an eye, a few days passed.

People from Motorola headquarters arrived in Hong Kong, and the one who came was the Executive President, Morrison.

Michael Corleone and the White Widow also arrived in Hong Kong.

The contract was signed smoothly, and the final terms were set such that Ni Yongyao only needed to provide the Galaxy II, while everything else was left to Motorola, the Corleone family, and the White Widow to handle.

As for the profits from sales, Ni Yongyao took fifty percent for himself.

This was only because Ni Yongyao made concessions out of consideration for Michael Corleone and the White Widow; otherwise, according to custom, Ni Yongyao would have had to get at least seventy percent to nod his head.

After the cooperation was established, a branch company would be set up in both the US and the Bear, with all three parties holding shares.

After this, the scale of Galaxy Communications would expand rapidly.

Ni Yongyao expected that it wouldn't be long before Galaxy Communications leaped to become a top communications giant in Hong Kong.

This day.

Ni Yongyao was enjoying a sunbath in the courtyard, with Fox and Sophia's fingers constantly kneading his legs.

"Beep, beep, beep!"

This was the phone ringing.

After Ni Yongyao answered, a familiar voice rang out.

"Mr. Ni, I have already contacted General Bali, Songpa's arch-rival. He agreed to help, but he needs you to take care of Songpa within a short time; otherwise, if it drags on for too long, he won't be able to suppress the situation either."

The Doctor said.

"Time is not an issue."
