Chapter 501: Taking sides

"I agree with this statement." A word came from behind Yun Jingdong. As soon as he finished speaking, several people came close to him, holding up their wine glasses and saying, "I feel relieved and happy to hear Mr. Yun's sigh."

"President Lin." A group of people looked at the visitor and greeted him.

"Lin Anxi, President of Bank of China New York Branch." Lin Anxi extended his hand to Lei Hao, and the two people around him also began to say hello, and the scene was harmonious.

One was Anxi and the other was Jingdong. Lei Hao felt that the names of that era were so interesting. He stretched out his hand and shook President Lin's hand. He immediately saw that the scene seemed to be divided into two sides.

Yun Jingdong and others were in one faction, Lin Anxi and three others were in one faction, and Lei Hao stood in the middle.

"From President Lin's accent, are you from Beihe?" Lei Hao wanted to talk about the topic he had just discussed with Yun Jingdong, so he said to Lin Anxi.

"Yes, Ah Hai and I are fellow villagers." Lin Anxi smiled happily, and when she turned her eyes to Yun Jingdong, there was even a little pride in her expression.

Ah Hai? Yun Jingdong and others didn't know why, but Lei Hao was surprised. Suddenly some information flashed through his mind. It seemed that one of the contacts given by his wife was named Uncle Lin Anxi, and he should also have received the contact from him. phone number.

only……

Lei Hao was a little embarrassed. He had answered too many phone calls and rejected too many invitations. He originally wanted to visit his house after a while, but he didn't expect to be caught on such an occasion. This was a bit unreasonable. .

According to the unspoken rules of the party, too many people gathered here, so everyone naturally divided into several small circles, vaguely surrounding the small circles of Lei Hao, Yun Jingdong and Lin Anxi, which was quite special. It means setting up a formation.

"Lei, I hope you will consider it again. All financial practitioners in our Chinese Chamber of Commerce are looking forward to cooperating with you." Yun Jingdong spread his arms and said, "We are natural collaborators, and the Chinese are a natural circle."

"I'm not used to giving away equity, but I don't object to accepting funds from my compatriots, but now is not the right time." Lei Hao simply refused: "Oasis Securities can only choose to give me money or accept my acquisition. Of course , others who want to acquire it can just pay me the interest difference according to the contract."

"Lei, I represent the Chinese in the American financial circle," Yun Jingdong looked at Lin Anxi and slightly changed his words: "At least most of the Chinese in the American financial circle."

"Business is business, and favors are favors. It's pointless to threaten favors." Lin Anxi said with a smile beside him.

"Since President Lin said so, I also want to ask, when will Bank of China approve our guaranteed letter of credit?" Yun Jingdong smiled and brought up a topic that made Lin Anxi look slightly embarrassed.

"We need to study it further." Lin Anxi shook his head.

"President Lin, I didn't ask for this myself. We fought for it for Lei's Forest. What do you think? With Forest's qualifications, how much quota can we get? 50 million? 100 million?" Yun Jingdong said with a smile.

Lei Hao was also surprised that the topic involved him.

The so-called guaranteed letter of credit, also called a standby letter of credit, is a certificate issued by a bank to an enterprise. For example, if Bank of China gives Forest a credit standby letter of credit worth US$50 million, then Forest can use this certificate to solve the problem of occupying part of the funds. .

For example, in this forward interest rate agreement, if Lei Hao has a standby letter of credit with a sufficient amount, the insurance company can recognize it. When Forest suffers a loss but cannot pay, the insurance company can directly request the issuance of the standby letter of credit. money within the payment limit.

"If there is a project in Forest that requires a standby letter of credit, Bank of China is willing to be the issuing bank." Lin Anxi said it simply.

"So, this is what President Lin gave to Forest?" Yun Jingdong said something that Lei Hao didn't quite understand.

"Yes." Lin Anxi suppressed the helplessness in her heart and said.

"I understand, Lei. There are new guests here. I'll go greet them and you can have a chat with President Lin." After Yun Jingdong said with a smile, he left here and walked towards the new people coming in at the gate. go.

Lei Hao is still full of doubts. He can only see that Yun Jingdong and Lin Anxi have differences, but he has no idea to what extent, why, and what the consequences will be.

"Find a place to sit." Lin Anxi sighed and invited after seeing Lei Hao's obvious inability to socialize in such situations.

Lei Hao nodded and followed Lin Anxi to sit on a sofa at the edge of the venue for people to rest. He really didn't care about these things.

Anyway, no matter how the outside world changes, as long as he can hold on to the Thunder and LEI, as long as the profitability is there, Lei Hao does not need to flatter or please anyone.

Because of his confidence, he is independent, and Lei Hao's nonchalant attitude is obvious.

Seeing Lei Hao's attitude, Lin Anxi smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "Qiu Zhenhai has a good son-in-law."

"President Lin?" Lei Hao kept smiling, showing a hint of doubt at the right time.

"Why didn't you come to the United States to find me?" Lin Anxi asked: "What Keda can do, Bank of China can also do."

"I'm busy. There's no need to owe favors for small things." Lei Hao said clearly, "I'm used to cooperating with institutions like Keda and HSBC."

Lei Hao is telling the truth. With the Chinese people's peeing habits, if you find friends and relatives to blame for things that you can handle on your own, you can still get it done, but you will owe favors for no reason, so why bother to find out? relation?

Since I can handle these things through my business dealings with Keda and HSBC, there is no need to trouble the big guys like Bank of China and ICBC.

"Isn't a Chinese bank a bank? Your credit limit at Bank of China is not small." As a person within the system, Lin Anxi understood something and felt even more exhausted.

Commercial banks have a national background, which is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing. Foreigners do not believe you. Similarly, the Chinese high-level circles are not sure whether they want to cooperate with you. This is the dilemma Chinese banks encounter overseas.

What’s even more outrageous is that the overseas institutions of Chinese banks really have political motives, and their situation is quite embarrassing.

"President Lin knows the truth and cooperates with you, can we still have secrets?" Because of Lin Anxi's identity, Lei Hao still made it clear and said: "I don't dare to get too close to you."

"But you also rejected Yun Jingdong's olive branch."

"Is there a problem?" Lei Hao asked curiously, this time he really wanted to ask for advice.

"You don't know?" Lin Anxi was also surprised. He shook his head immediately, showed a wry smile again, and said, "Let me tell you."

Following Lin Anxi's narration, Lei Hao realized that he was actually facing the problem of taking sides.
