I Really Didn’t Want To Make A Lot Of Money

"Are you talking about this new port?" Chen Ling asked. According to the plan, this new port is huge, and the investment must be huge, and port engineering is not the main business of Anyang Group, so he didn't even think about it.

Dehuche took the plan and said, "Yes, Mr. Chen. The future cooperation that Valerian said is this port. Several companies from Europe, China, and the United States are striving for this project. , But I need someone I can trust to cooperate."

"Do you have the final say on such a big project?" Chen Ling was a little skeptical.

"Of course not. This project is a project that the head of state personally took care of. However, the port company is responsible for the specific matters. Therefore, I have a lot of room for operation in it." Dehuche did not hide anything from Chen Ling. "And, you know Yes, my father's identity..."

Chen Ling smiled and said: "I already know that your father is the Minister of Transportation, and your family is the strongest family in Algeria's logistics field. It has a history of hundreds of years."

Speaking of his family, Dehuche showed a proud look: "Yes, we are the largest logistics family in the Maghreb region. It is not a history of hundreds of years, but thousands of years. Our family is from Carthage. The era began to exist, and it was the great sailing family at that time..."

Chen Ling listened to Dehuqie talking about his family history for a few minutes, and couldn't help but look a little high. Dehuche’s family history is long and enduring, but I don’t know if this family history can withstand textual research.

Chen Ling thought of a question: "Dehuche, you have a lot of control over this project. Just open tenders directly. There are many companies that can build ports, and you can operate from them."

Dehuche sighed: "The planning and research of this project, and even part of the design, have been completed. It is estimated that an investment of 2 billion US dollars will be required. Our country currently does not have enough funds to invest."

Chen Ling followed Latina to study the financing of the project, and it was just right at this time, saying: "Can you finance? Sovereign secured loans, port income pledge loans, port land mortgages, etc., or make it into a BOT model."

"If there is no interference from the opposition, the financing problem may have been resolved. However, the model you just mentioned was all taken as a topic by the opposition. The media promoted the betrayal of national rights and interests, and it has not been implemented. Until recently, the port The financing was finally approved by Congress. So, I can start operations."

Chen Ling has already been targeted by the opposition and interest groups, and he is unwilling to get involved further, spreading his hands: "In fact, only you can solve this kind of thing by yourself."

Chen Ling was telling the truth.

Dehuche obviously also knew the difficulty of this, and said: "I know that only we can solve this kind of thing. Therefore, I thought of a PPP plan, hoping that while maintaining control of the port, I can get enough The financing. The above has agreed in principle, and because the control of the port is in the hands of the government, it can also leave the opposition with nothing to say."

Chen Ling curiously asked, "Is this possible?"

Dehuche is very sure: "What our company cannot achieve, it is not suitable to take the lead in doing this. But it is entirely possible to achieve it in conjunction with other companies."

"Okay, do you think I can be a partner?" Chen Ling was just so happy to receive more than one million yuan. He was suddenly invited to participate in the operation of a $2 billion project, and he couldn't accept it for a while.

Dehuche said without hesitation: "Of course, I have 100% confidence in you. You are Chinese, you can find a large Chinese company to do this project, right?"

Chen Ling blindly trusts himself to Dehuche, a little bit dumbfounded. I am no more than a wage earner, so what do I use to run such a large project?

Dehuche continued: "Since I know you, everything you do is predictable and correct. Maybe you haven't realized how much energy you have, but I believe you have infinite power and wisdom... …"

Chen Ling shook his head again and again, and even a little doubted whether this Dehuche was hiding evil intentions. Otherwise, how could there be such a rush to give someone a project?

"Mr. Chen, did you forget the CS company you introduced to me last time? It's a well-known company in the world, what do you think about it?" Dehuche reminded Chen Ling.

Chen Ling smiled and said, "Yes, they are powerful, can you directly find them? You already know them."

"No, Mr. Chen, the collaborator I need must be a 100% reliable person. I think only you are suitable. I believe that as long as I work with you, I can definitely put this project into operation. At that time, Our family's position in the logistics industry in the Maghreb region can be raised to a higher level and can be further expanded."

Chen Ling still didn't understand why he was running this project.

Dehuche saw that Chen Ling did not understand, so he had to say directly: "My father is the Minister of Transportation, and Valerian is a good friend of mine. Therefore, it is not convenient for me to come forward and run this project directly. I need you to run it for me. You I am the foreigner I trust most, and you are familiar with engineering construction."

Chen Ling understood a little bit. He had to play the role of an intermediary and find an investor for Dehuche. The so-called PPP is a public-private partnership, where the government and enterprises work together on projects. Generally speaking, the government will not contribute capital, but only provide land, planning and various procedures, while providing financing and credit enhancement support for enterprises. On the other hand, the business side has to take out real money, then raise a portion of the funds to complete the project, and finally obtain a return on investment through project operation income.

Therefore, PPP projects are sometimes regarded as the white wolf of the government's empty gloves. However, companies are often willing to do high-quality PPP projects because high-quality projects are guaranteed and profitable.

Dehuche was inconvenient to come forward and had to hide behind the scenes, while Chen Ling showed up and contacted the business side.

Chen Ling thought for a while, and felt that it was feasible. If this thing can be done, it will be very rewarding.

But Chen Ling's identity must be changed to protect himself and avoid becoming a thorn in the eyes of the opposition and interest groups.

Chen Ling said: "Dehuche, when you say this, I understand what you mean. Thank you for your trust in me."

Dehuche smiled slightly and showed a humble expression: "Mr. Chen, you are an absolutely trustworthy person, a person worthy of my Dehuche's life."

Chen Ling became accustomed to his numbness and said, "However, I have a suggestion. I am not a person on your side. I am only myself, a Chinese from Algeria. I will cooperate with Chinese companies. As a representative, I am negotiating this project with the port company and the Ministry of Communications. What do you think?"

Dehuche thought for a while and asked, "Where are your earnings? Does the company give you salary or bonuses?"

"Don't worry about this. On the surface, I am an investor, but in fact, for serving you, you can consider how much commission you pay me. I don't hide it from you. I will also ask the investor for some commission."

Dehuche nodded: "As long as things can be done, there is no problem."

"I have one more condition." Chen Ling said, "I must have a document that proves that I can get this project with confidence, so that I can get in touch with investors."

Dehuche is also a veteran of shopping malls, and immediately understood: "No problem, I will go to the port company, or the Ministry of Communications will prepare a memorandum for you to sign so that you can show it to investors."

"Then I have to set up a company?"

"Yes, you can set up an offshore company, such as in the British Virgin Islands, the procedure is very simple."

Chen Ling understands. This matter has been introduced by Latina, many investment and financing projects will set up a special offshore company, which is easy to operate.

"Well, Mr. Chen, we are finished talking about work. I have one more private matter to tell you."

"Oh, please say."

"My father wants to see you." Dehuche said

"The Minister of Transportation?"

"Yes. Of course, not in his office, but in our home, meeting in private."

Chen Ling squinted, "Have you told him anything about me?"

Dehuche seemed very proud: "Of course, I told him about the last time you rescued me and Pan-African Medical. And I heard François talk about you at the Sand Nest restaurant. That restaurant’s The boss is my friend, and his boss is a friend of my father. As you know, our population is not like yours, China has a population of more than one billion people, so we know each other."

"Okay. Since we want to cooperate, we should also know Mr. Minister."

Chen Ling pretended to be forced.

A Dehuche felt compelled for granted.
