Chapter 145: Mato Walsh, who puts profit first
Zhang Junfeng quickly thought of Leon John in the Korean branch to see if he could lend him some money for capital turnover. When the financial crisis is completely over in September this year, the funds he invested before will be able to reap a huge harvest, and there will be no pressure to repay the debt of hundreds of millions of dollars.
However, when he contacted Leon John and mentioned this matter to him, Leon John's response made him a little embarrassed.
It turned out that although Goldman Sachs, the headquarters on Wall Street, agreed to open a branch in Goryeo to increase its influence in Asia, these old foxes seemed to have set a lot of constraints on Leon John, the "provincial governor". He did not submit an investment plan to the headquarters, and the daily reserve funds of the branch were only tens of millions of US dollars. This amount of money was not enough to accomplish anything big.
Of course, Leon John also gave a highly feasible plan for the trouble Zhang Junfeng encountered. He asked Zhang Junfeng to contact Mato Walsh and apply for a loan from the headquarters by using the privileges of a senior consultant. With Zhang Junfeng's strength, let alone 500 million US dollars, even 1 billion, the old foxes at the headquarters would be very happy to provide it! Hearing this, Zhang Junfeng was a little amused. It seemed that after going around in circles, he still had to negotiate with those old foxes. These guys would definitely take the opportunity to ask for benefits from him. There is no free lunch in the world!
…
Seeing that Zhang Junfeng looked unhappy, Wu Xiuying and the others curiously asked Zhang Junfeng about the situation. Of course, Zhang Junfeng would not easily disclose the situation in Goryeo to others. After thinking for a while, he decided to make adjustments in the next trip.
He planned to have Wu Xiuying and other members of the delegation bring an interpreter to visit Pengcheng's investment promotion department to discuss investment in land acquisition to open factories and shopping centers, while he would bring bodyguards to contact Ma Huazhuo and Ding Lei directly to complete the original Longguo Internet investment plan as soon as possible.
In this way, they can return to Goryeo in advance. This time, he not only wants to make Hanjin Group's plan fail, but also wants to take advantage of this opportunity to launch a counterattack and take down Hanjin Group's other two core subsidiaries - Hanjin Land Transport and Hanjin Airlines!
He wanted to use Hanjin Group as a target to warn those restless guys that if they dared to take action against Galaxy Group, they would definitely face strong retaliation from Comet Capital. No one could provoke him. Zhang Junfeng could still live safely and soundly, and they had to pay the price with blood! As for whether Hanjin Group could survive after losing three core subsidiaries in succession, it depended on their own luck! ...
Late at night, Zhang Junfeng forced himself to call Mato Walsh despite his tired body. Hearing the familiar English voice coming from the microphone, Zhang Junfeng smiled and greeted the other party.
"Waltz, my investment in Goryeo requires some funds to turn over, and I need your help this time! I need a loan of 800 million US dollars for one year, and the interest rate is fine as long as it does not exceed 15%!" After the greetings, Zhang Junfeng quickly explained his intentions.
Mato Wals was somewhat surprised by Zhang Junfeng's request. In his impression, Zhang Junfeng should have sufficient funds on hand. Why did he suddenly contact him to apply for such a large loan? "... Zhang, are you in trouble? Can you tell me what happened in detail?" Out of caution, Mato Wals did not agree to Zhang Junfeng's proposal out of hand, but planned to make a decision after understanding the situation.
Helpless Zhang Junfeng could only briefly describe how Hanjin Group tried to seize the operating rights of Hanjin Shipping and how he had recently invested part of his funds.
Upon hearing these things, Mato Walsh laughed out loud. It turned out that the cunning guy Zhang Junfeng went to invest alone and didn't bring them along!
"... Zhang, this is not a good thing. You didn't even tell us about the shorting of gold at Goldman Sachs. This is against the rules. You are still a highly paid consultant of our group..."
Hearing what Mato Walls said, Zhang Junfeng curled his lips in disdain. To put it nicely, this guy wanted to take advantage of the fact that the group hired him as a consultant to get projects with high return on investment from him almost for free, and in the process create high-profit projects for himself to increase his own value and capabilities.
But when I really encountered a problem, this guy didn't help me find a way to solve the problem immediately. Instead, he argued with me and wanted to get more benefits from me. Compared with Leon John, this guy is obviously more utilitarian and unkind! However, Zhang Junfeng remained calm on the surface. He only heard him say, "Walsh, if you can help me with the loan this time, you can naturally take part in the short selling of gold! But the loan needs to be done as soon as possible. If it takes too long, I can only go to other banks for loans. I think other financial institutions on Wall Street must be willing to cooperate with me..."
Hearing Zhang Junfeng's threatening words, Mato Wals realized that he couldn't ask for too much. Since Zhang Junfeng was willing to let him take a ride and make some money, he would help him this time. He already knew about the shorting of gold, and he only needed to do some operations to bring in rich returns.
But if he really continued to argue with the other party and asked for more, it would inevitably anger Zhang Junfeng, and by then the relationship between the two parties would most likely be damaged, which would not be worth the loss.
After a brief consideration, Mato Walsh agreed to Zhang Junfeng's proposal and said that he would pass a resolution to provide him with a loan of US$800 million within two days. After the resolution was passed, he would order his subordinates to transfer the funds to the Comet Capital account under Zhang Junfeng's name as soon as possible.
Hearing that the other party was willing to cooperate with him, Zhang Junfeng was relieved and expressed his gratitude in a calm tone. If he had a choice, he naturally did not want to contact other financial institutions, even Citibank, DuPont Bank, Morgan Bank, etc. on Wall Street. If he rashly negotiated with those financial institutions about large loans, they would definitely be wary and even send people to investigate his background. Don't let him be targeted by others before he can get the loan!
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Junfeng felt relieved. Since Mato Walsh had already agreed, the loan should be relatively stable. The next step was to speed up the trip to Pengcheng.
Ma Huazhuo and Ding Lei, the two future Internet industry giants that Zhang Junfeng particularly wants to make friends with, are currently in a much better situation than Ma Yun in Lin'an.
