Hong Kong, the Xu family.
Hong Kong shipping magnate Hui Siu-hsun sat on the sofa, his expression quite interesting.
After listening to Chen Dong's words, Xu Shixun felt extremely conflicted.
Targeting the British pound.
Xu Shixun was truly terrified by this insane plan.
It's important to know that the British pound is the national currency of the United Kingdom, issued by the central bank of the United Kingdom.
In a sense, the British pound represents the national dignity of the United States.
Xu Shixun pondered for a moment.
What would happen if the pound were actually attacked?
The central bank of the United States will definitely retaliate with all its might.
The power of capital versus the power of a nation—that's the final outcome.
Thinking of this, Xu Shixun's hand holding the phone trembled.
That's incredibly bold!
No, it's more like it's insane.
Xu Shixun was speechless. In Xu Shixun's view, Chen Dong had always been a steady and reliable person.
Moreover, judging from the things Chen Dong did in Hong Kong, one by one, it's not hard to see that Chen Dong is a very sensible person.
This risky move was completely different from Chen Dong's usual style.
Finally, Xu Shixun took a deep breath, which allowed him to process the shock in his heart.
Xu Shixun spoke up, "Mr. Chen, I still think this matter is far too risky."
At this point, Xu Shixun hesitated slightly, seemingly considering whether to continue or not.
After a slight hesitation, Xu Shixun advised again, "Mr. Chen, you are still young, you have a long time ahead of you, there's no need to be so eager to achieve success."
Chen Dong was taken aback.
Chen Dong could somewhat sense the purpose behind Xu Shixun's words.
Firstly, Xu Shixun really thought highly of him, which is why he was afraid that he would make a mistake.
Secondly, the fact that Xu Shixun could say something that sounded offensive shows that he truly considered Chen Dong one of his own.
If it were an outsider, why would they offer such advice to Chen Dong?
Thirdly, Xu Shixun and Chen Dong are currently cooperating, and if Chen Dong encounters problems, Xu Shixun's side will definitely be in turmoil.
Xu Shixun's worries were not unfounded.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Dong said directly, "Old Xu, so far, this is the only way to make up for your losses."
Xu Shixun hurriedly said, "I know, but we shouldn't do such risky things. Chen Sheng, you don't need to worry about my losses. I can still hold on."
During the phone call, Xu Shixun's confidence clearly waned by the end.
Chen Dong smiled faintly and explained the details of the profit-making process in the entire plan.
According to Chen Dong's estimate, if Xu Shixun puts in $1 billion, the money he can earn will basically double.
This time, Xu Shixun fell silent and remained silent for a long time.
Seeing this, Chen Dong still did not intend to give up.
Chen Dong persuaded him again, "Old Xu, let me tell you the truth. At the start of this plan, the funds I can invest, including stocks and cash, total about 10 billion yuan. We can withstand the injection of other capital."
Xu Shixun's eyes widened instantly.
Stocks and cash?
So, Chen Dong didn't include his businesses in mainland China and other assets at all.
In Hong Kong alone, Chen Dong could easily come up with 10 billion?
At this moment, Chen Dong's voice rang out again: "If this 10 billion is not enough, I will have more funds injected later. However, according to my calculations, 10 billion US dollars is enough to play a game with them."
Chen Dong's tone remained completely calm.
It's as if this 10 billion US dollars is the same as 100 yuan.
Hearing Chen Dong's relaxed and calm tone, Xu Shixun finally lost his composure.
Xu Shixun gasped and blurted out, "My God, Mr. Chen, this is absolutely astonishing!"
Not long ago, Hui Siu-fun lost a whopping HK$2 billion due to the Chen Dong Transportation incident.
It's around 500 million US dollars.
For Hsu Shih-hsun, a loss of 500 million US dollars is enough to cripple him.
Then look at Chen Dong, who can casually pull out 11 billion US dollars without any difficulty.
It's important to know that oil had not yet been extracted at this time.
In other words, Chen Dong did not include the profits from Oilfield No. 47 in his calculations at all.
At that moment, Xu Shixun felt a chill run down his spine.
Xu Shixun realized that Chen Dong was far more terrifying than he had ever known.
Throughout Hong Kong, everyone knows that Chen Dong is very rich.
But outsiders could never have imagined such a huge sum as 10 billion US dollars.
Even if he loses everything, it won't hurt Chen Dong.
Xu Shixun's Adam's apple bobbed, and his forehead was covered in sweat.
So, just how rich is Chen Dong?
Xu Shixun no longer dared to imagine it.
At least $1 billion is essentially a stake for Hsu Shih-hsun, representing half of his net worth.
Xu Shixun suddenly realized that compared to Chen Dong, he was nothing at all.
Cold sweat covered his forehead, trickled down Xu Shixun's cheeks, and finally landed on the carpet.
At this moment, Chen Dong said with a faint smile, "Mr. Xu, we have enough resources to do this. Trust me."
After thinking it over, Xu Shixun quickly recovered from his shock.
Faced with Chen Dong's complete disclosure of his "histories," Xu Shixun finally decided to go all out as well.
If he spends $1 billion, Xu Shixun will be out of his current predicament once the deal is done.
If he didn't do it, Xu Shixun was afraid he would regret it.
