Chapter 915 Obtaining Funds
"Within three years, Mr. Xu Yi will need to repay Mr. Gong the principal of 3 billion US dollars, as well as the investment projects under the original Xu family name in artificial intelligence, biotechnology research and development, etc."
"If the debt cannot be repaid within three years, Mr. Gong has the right to take legal action to reclaim all assets under Mr. Xu Yi's name."
Xu Yi's expression was somewhat unpleasant, but for the sake of the Xu family's future, he held back.
After putting away the loan agreement, Attorney Wei said goodbye to Gong Lian: "Mr. Gong, the agreement has been signed. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."
"Alright, butler, see the guests out."
After the housekeeper saw Lawyer Wei off, the three of them were left alone in the living room again.
Gong Lian held the loan agreement with great satisfaction: "I will transfer the principal of three billion US dollars into President Xu's account within three days."
"Okay, thank you very much for your generosity, Mr. Gong."
After thanking him, Xu Yi handed the loan agreement to Xu Chen and turned to leave the Gong family villa.
As Xu Chen left the Gong family villa with the loan agreement, he finally voiced his doubts: "Dad, why did you sign this loan agreement? What if we can't repay it within three years? Won't our Xu family go bankrupt?"
"At least, Gong Lian can protect our Xu family for three years. Within three years, as long as those investment projects are back in my hands, paying off the three billion US dollars will not be a difficult task."
Xu Yi is still optimistic about the future of the Xu family.
Xu Chen valued the present more: "But Dad, it's true that Gong Lian lent us 3 billion US dollars, but all of our family's original artificial intelligence and biotechnology research and development projects will belong to Gong Lian!"
"I feel like this deal was a bad one."
Those artificial intelligence and biotechnology research and development projects are all top-notch projects, and they would be highly sought after in the financial market!
It's not something that every investor can get just because they want it.
Now, however, it has all been sold to Gong Lian for three billion US dollars.
This deal was really difficult, but it was also quite worthwhile.
"What can I do if we lose money? Do you expect me to just watch the Xu family go bankrupt?"
Xu Yi didn't want it to be like this, but there was nothing he could do: "You should be content. At least Gong Lian left us a few wind power projects and didn't try to wipe us out like Bo Jinyan did. That's already more than enough."
Their family is now driven to the brink of despair by Bo Jinyan, and they have no choice but to help Gong Lian.
Even if it's a loss, it's still better than bankruptcy.
When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
Gong Lian stood in the study on the second floor, quietly watching them leave.
After seeing off Attorney Wei, the butler stood behind Gong Lian and couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Gong, why are you helping them so much?"
The Xu family and the Bo family have been friends for generations, and Mr. Gong has never gotten along with the Bo family, so why help them like this?
“I’m not helping them, I’m helping myself.” Gong Lian stood in front of the French windows, his face calm and composed. “Bo Jinyan took Sang Ruo on a business trip, and Sang Ruo didn’t even inform me. I can’t see her, and I miss her very much.”
"If I don't take advantage of this opportunity to get involved in the internal struggle between the two families, I might never have been able to see Sang Ruo in my entire life."
For Sang Ruo's sake, and for his own benefit, he was willing to sabotage Bo Jinyan's plan!
Who told him to take Sang Ruo to America without saying a word?
"What about Miss Wen?" the butler suddenly asked. "Aren't you going to wait for her to come back?"
Wen Qingyi?
If the butler hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten about this person.
Gong Lian said casually, "I didn't expect her to come back after she went to North America this time."
"What if she comes back? Will you still stay with her?"
The housekeeper always felt that Mr. Gong wouldn't forget Wen Qingyi so quickly.
After all, Wen Qingyi was Mr. Gong's white moonlight, and he had loved her deeply for so many years. How could he forget her so easily?
Gong Lian shook his head: "If she comes back, I will keep my promise to her, but I will no longer invest any feelings in her."
He had long since lost all feeling for Wen Qingyi and no longer loved her.
He agreed to be with her only to fulfill Sang Ruo's request.
If it weren't for Sang Ruo, he wouldn't have kept her by his side.
This was all he could do for Sang Ruo.
...
Three days later, at the headquarters of Lu's Bank in Manhattan, New York.
Gong Lian kept his word, and Xu Yi soon received the 3 billion US dollars principal from Gong Lian. He reinvested the funds into the projects and secretly contacted the project leaders, intending to take back the projects.
Perhaps because of the availability of funds, Xu Yi spoke with much more confidence at the board meeting.
Lu Nanchu held a board meeting as usual, but was puzzled that the person attending the meeting today was not Xu Chen, but Xu Yi himself.
After the meeting, Lu Nanchu returned to her office and called Bo Jinyan: "Hello, cousin? Where are you right now?"
"I'm developing a payment settlement system and doing testing. What's up?"
On Bo Jinyan's side, the sound of keyboards being typed could be heard everywhere.
Apart from that, there was no other sound.
“Cousin, I advise you to keep a close eye on the project you snatched from the Xu family. I’m afraid your plan might fall through.” Lu Nanchu reminded him calmly, “Today, Xu Yi came to the board meeting in person. Didn’t you see? The confidence he had when he spoke was different from before.”
"I'm afraid your plans might change."
Ever since Bo Jinyan started targeting the Xu family, she had been keeping a close eye on them, fearing that something unexpected might happen to his plan and cause it to fail.
Her sixth sense told her that Xu Yi was different today.
She couldn't quite put her finger on what was different, but she had this strong feeling about it.
Bo Jinyan frowned: "Nan Chu, what is the reason for saying this? Why do you say it like this?"
He had been keeping a close eye on the projects he was working on, so there was no way anything would go wrong.
"In short, be careful, and don't let your plans end up being nothing."
After hanging up the phone, Bo Jinyan fiddled with his phone and, still feeling uneasy, made a voice call back to China: "Zhang Ye, is there any news lately about the investment projects I recently acquired?"
“Mr. Bo, I was just about to call you about this.” Zhang Ye’s tone was quite serious: “Regarding those new projects you brought in, the project managers haven’t been answering my calls much lately, and we haven’t been able to reach anyone in the investment management department either. What should we do?”
Unable to get in touch?
Bo Jinyan suddenly had a bad feeling: "Has someone been secretly contacting them? Go and investigate immediately! Report back to me as soon as you find out!"
"yes."
Bo Jinyan lost interest in the test and drove straight back to the Central Park apartment.
Sang Ruo was drawing a new jade carving design when she heard the door open and thought it was Aunt Feng.
As soon as she looked up, she saw Bo Jinyan standing in front of her.
She paused for a moment, then asked, "Ayan, why did you suddenly come back? Weren't you supposed to be doing a test?"
