The police of Hong Kong comprehensive world
Chapter 1,288 US$640 million in bonds
Just as Aoki was receiving Zhang Pin and John, a freight van drove to the building's underground parking lot.
It was empty here, with no one around, but there was a closed-circuit television with a red light flashing at the entrance of the elevator.
The location of the CCTV connection is naturally the front desk of the building.
There are two security guards on duty there even at night. More importantly, the location where the front desk is located is also connected to the Luojishan Police Station, which has a one-button alarm function.
Crunch——
At this moment, a black car parked in front of the hotel, and two foreigners, one black and one white, followed
"Hey, I spent the night at the Hilton Hotel last night with Madonna, Hilton's bag girl. Her big ass. Hey, do you know Madonna?"
One of them, an old black man wearing glasses, showed off his brilliant achievements last night to his companions next to him, then walked to the front desk and looked at the security guard.
puff--
Just when the security guard was attracted by Lao Hei's topic and his attention was diverted, the silent white man next to him suddenly took out a pistol from his body, pointed it at the security guard's forehead, and pulled the trigger.
Because the pistol was equipped with a silencer, the shooting sound was not loud. The bullet instantly penetrated the security guard's forehead and then hit the wall behind.
When the security guard fell to the ground, Lao Hei, who was originally speaking, took a side step and rushed into the security room next to him.
I saw him sitting in the security room, plugging something into the computer, and then typing on the keyboard. Soon he showed a relaxed look on his face.
"It's done, the elevator is here to pick you up!"
Lao Hei was typing on the keyboard while talking to others through the headset.
As he finished speaking, there was a ding from the underground garage elevator, and an elevator happened to stop on the first floor below.
Click——
At the same time, the truck compartment that was originally parked at the elevator entrance was opened, and it was filled with people.
These people were dressed in different styles, but the one thing they had in common was that they were all armed.
The first, a handsome white man who looked like a university professor, stepped out from the passenger seat and led the way.
"Ellis, follow the previous plan and control the elevator."
"Yuni, clear out all the security in this building. The rest of the guys will follow me. Let's all make a fortune together!"
The man who looked like a professor said as he entered the elevator.
Others followed the professor and squeezed in together.
"Mr. Zhang, this is our company's business statement for the past year. These are financial flows. These are contracts signed with us by companies such as Sony, Philips, and Wal-Mart."
"Actually, just the day before yesterday, our company invested in a bearer bond worth US$640 million."
After Aoki sent John to Holly's office, he immediately turned back and introduced some basic information about the company to Zhang Pin, the investor.
Most of the things he showed were to prove that Zhongfu Group was worth investing in.
Zhang Pin just glanced at the eye-catching data on the report and the information about the suppliers he cooperated with.
He also only briefly flipped through the financial statements.
Finally, when he saw the bearer bond worth US$640 million, Sir Zhang finally stopped his casual movements.
"Although the amount of this bond is large, for a company as big as Zhongfu Group, it only lasts for ten days and a half. And if I remember correctly, at the end of the month, you will immediately have a bond worth ten days. The $100 million fund raising is about to expire.”
Zhang Pin was indeed a little surprised at first when he saw this bearer bond.
Because bearer bonds like this are an equivalent currency that is more useful than cash for large companies.
Although Zhongfu Group is well-known and can be regarded as a veteran capital company that has been established for decades, as their small books have been harvested by America in recent years, they are naturally not doing much better.
If they could just come up with $600 million, they wouldn't be asking for money and coming to Hong Kong Island.
You know, for many promising companies, they have no shortage of investment. It is impossible for ordinary people to even buy their stocks. They can only buy some investments in the company in the secondary or even tertiary market.
Although Zhongfu Group is well-known, its performance is actually declining.
However, Zhang Pin quickly figured out why Zhongfu Group bought this bond.
Before coming, although Chen Tianqiao did not ask him to complete the inspection of Zhongfu Group alone, he also informed him of some recent major events about Zhongfu Group in advance so that he could use it as a reference and at the same time be regarded as a person to communicate with Zhongfu Group. topic of.
So Zhang Pin knew that just recently, the other party had a sum of previously raised funds that was about to be repaid when due.
"I remember when you were raising funds, the average return you gave was over five points. The debt of one billion and fifty million US dollars, just this bearer bond, is not enough."
If Sir Zhang were an ordinary investor, of course he could only hope that Zhongfu Group's business would get better and better, and then stand behind and applaud them.
But the reason why Chen Tianqiao chose to invest in Zhongfu Group was not just to make some quick money.
In fact, the current size of the Bridge Group is not inferior to other world-class banks.
However, due to regional problems, Bridge Bank often has no way to enter many promising or influential industries.
This time, China Rich Bank was desperate and had no choice but to accept the investment from Ohashi Bank.
Of course, Chen Tianqiao also knew that when China Rich Bank accepted their investment, it was not really planning to sell so many shares. The other party obviously had bad intentions and just wanted to seize the principal of Bridge Bank.
However, knowing that Zhongfu Group had bad intentions, Chen Tianqiao still agreed to the investment. Naturally, there was a reason.
First, as the Daqiao Group has grown to its current size, it is inevitable to go global.
The second is that although Zhongfu Group has bad intentions, Chen Tianqiao is not stupid. On the contrary, when Zhongfu Group took a fancy to his principal, he also took a fancy to Zhongfu Group's current framework.
Zhongfu Group's life has become difficult recently due to various external reasons, but after all, the other party was once rich, and the many channels and information at its disposal made it a member of the high-end ecological niche.
Just like in the capital market, there are many emerging companies that suddenly made a lot of money, but lack sufficient foundation to go public and raise funds. Therefore, they often choose to acquire a company that meets the listing qualifications or has already been listed, and then go public through a backdoor listing. .
Chen Tianqiao actually has a similar mentality towards Zhongfu Group.
Due to its historical background and other reasons, it is difficult for the Bridge Group to expand its business in other regions outside East Asia.
But if they can take advantage of the opportunity to invest in Zhongfu Group and then successfully take over, then everything will be different.
Because of this, when Chen Tianqiao invested in Zhongfu Group, the two parties deliberately signed a series of gambling regulations.
Now that Sir Zhang is here to audit the accounts, it is to test whether Zhongfu Group has achieved the previously agreed goals.
This time, because Sir Zhang arrived so suddenly, the America Branch of Zhongfu Group was obviously unprepared.
It's not clear what other small details are yet, but Zhang Pin quickly grasped an important point.
There are now less than ten days until the end of the month. As a result, Zhongfu Group has obviously not raised enough funds to pay for the fund-raising due at the end of the month.
"No, we have already agreed on that amount with domestic banks. When the time comes we mortgage this bearer bond, and they can lend us enough to pay the maturity funds."
When Aoki heard Zhang Pin's words, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
But of course he didn't dare to admit that the company couldn't come up with enough money at this time, so he could only find a reason for himself.
As for why a bond worth only 640 million U.S. dollars could lend more than 1 billion U.S. dollars, Aoki did not explain.
"That's good. Our bank invests in your company because we are optimistic about the development of Zhongfu Group. President Aoki, go and do your own business. Today is a good day for you to celebrate, so I won't disturb you too much."
Zhang Pin didn't ask too much about Aoki's explanation.
The purpose of his coming here today is not to check the accounts.
What's more, it's just to declare one's existence and put some pressure on Zhongfu Group.
Because Chen Tianqiao's purpose is to swallow up the Zhongfu Group, so for them, a Zhongfu Group with healthy funds and good reputation is a good group.
If Zhongfu Group was already in debt and had a tarnished reputation before the Bridge Group took over, then the business would naturally become a loss-making business.
Because of this, he only touched upon the plight of Zhongfu Group.
"Thank you, Sir Zhang. Please rest assured that I will run Zhongfu Group well."
Aoki obviously also guessed that the purpose of Zhang Pin and others was not just investment.
Although he was a little helpless about this situation, he was mostly relieved.
After all, if Zhang Pin and others choose to withdraw their capital, or directly make the news public, it will be difficult for Zhongfu Group.
For a large company like theirs, the daily turnover is an exaggerated amount of money. It is impossible to spread such a large business just by relying on your own money.
So many times, they rely on fundraising from investors after listing, or loans from banks and other institutions.
If it is known that they do not have sufficient repayment ability for the time being, it is very likely that Zhongfu Group will be squeezed into bankruptcy.
Although Aoki has reached the position of president of Zhongfu Group branch, he is still a wage earner in essence.
Especially at his age, sitting in this position is already considered his peak.
If Zhongfu Group goes bankrupt, then he, the president, will definitely be responsible for the company's poor management.
For Aoki, he certainly does not expect Nakatomi Group to go bankrupt.
Because if Zhongfu Group goes bankrupt, he will also lose his job.
It is conceivable that at his current age and bearing such a big blame, after leaving Zhongfu Group, he will never be able to find a better job than the president of a branch of Zhongfu Group.
So even though he had some guesses about Zhang Pin and others' thoughts, he still chose to play dumb.
On the other side, John finally met his wife Holly.
Because John was tired from traveling all the way, he simply started washing up in the bathroom inside the building.
"You have to forgive Ellis, he gets frustrated this time of year."
Holly stayed with John and explained to a colleague.
Just now, when John went to Holly's office to wait for her, he met a male colleague in Holly's office, who was sitting carefree on Holly's desk.
And when Holly came back, Ellis and Holly talked frivolously, and later deliberately used the company's prizes to squander John.
Holly naturally knew that John would not be in a good mood, but in order to maintain a good relationship with colleagues, she could only comfort her husband.
"I know this kind of person is always self-righteous, but I think the reason why he barks in front of me is because he has a crush on you."
John answered absentmindedly while washing his hands.
When his wife defends a man who just laughed at him in front of him, no one will feel too good.
"I don't like him."
Holly was also a little absent-minded. He and John had been separated for half a year, and they had been quarreling for so many years, so they had no feelings for each other for a long time.
So when she talked about her feelings in front of the other party, not only did she not feel ashamed, she was actually a little proud.
After all, Ellis is also one of the executives of Zhongfu Group, but he covets her very much.
"Where do you want to stay? You came in a hurry and didn't I have time to communicate with you?"
Holly changed the topic and asked about another thing.
She originally thought that John would not be able to accept the company's invitation to the dinner, but she didn't expect that John actually came.
The company has not arranged accommodation for family members. After all, it stands to reason that since employees work in Luojishan, they will naturally have their own accommodation.
And John and Holly had already separated, so naturally they couldn't act like normal family members.
"After Kepi retired, he came to settle here. He told me that I could live there."
Police Officer America's income is actually not low, but John has two children to raise, and he himself is also a spendthrift.
In addition to attending the banquet this time, he has already guessed that he may also have to resolve his marriage problem with Holly, so it is unlikely that he will leave Luoji Mountain in a short time.
If it were to rent a house, it would be a big burden for John.
So he was going to stay at an old friend's house.
"Kepi has retired. Where does he live?"
When Holly heard John mention Kepi, she was not unfamiliar with it. John had a bad personality and naturally didn't have many friends.
"It seems to be called Lamola."
John spent most of the first half of his life in New York and was obviously not familiar with Luoji Mountain, so he didn't know much about Kepi's residence.
"It must be Pamora."
Although Holly has only worked in Luojishan for half a year, she is obviously very familiar with the surrounding area.
