“Our boss told me at the time that Cao Cao also claimed to have an army of 800,000 during the Battle of Red Cliffs. In reality, the 12 billion figure was just a way to put pressure on the Shanghai Stock Exchange by contributing one-third of the capital, including land, infrastructure, and factory buildings. This reduced the pressure on our boss. The other shareholders contributed technology, equipment, and cash. That's how we raised 12 billion US dollars.”
"Oh, I see. Actually, your boss didn't contribute much. Maybe a few hundred million, maybe a billion or so?" Cousin Xie Weibing said.
Xie Yingying nodded and said, "Yes, that's his influence. He came to see my second uncle this time to borrow money. My dad's idea is to try to get my second uncle to help him. This way, he can not only owe me a favor, but also get me to invest in some of his projects."
Xie Yingying was able to say so much because she wanted her cousin or older cousin to say a few words to her second uncle.
Many personal relationships and interests are intertwined here. Once an opportunity is presented to achieve results that bring benefits to relatives, the goal is achieved.
My cousin asked Xie Yingying, "Does your boss know about Poly's nature?"
"You know a little bit, what's wrong? Isn't it a key enterprise?" Xie Yingying asked.
In fact, Xie Yingying knew very little about Poly Group, only that it was a key enterprise with excellent performance.
However, the underlying factors are somewhat complex. To put it simply, Poly Group was established with funding from the central government, the State Council, the State Council, the General Armaments Department, and CITIC Group.
It's actually just a huge corporation with J-team connections.
What makes money these days?
Is that even a question?
Poly serves as the window for J team's foreign import and export trade.
Later, however, the business nature was changed, and J became a private entity. In reality, this was just a cover-up.
Poly isn't yet a multi-functional mega-corporation, but it has a lot of foreign exchange reserves. They're all sitting in its overseas accounts.
Next, Xie Hongbing, Xie Yingying's cousin, explained the nature of Poly in detail.
If Xing Baohua is unaware, Xie Yingying needs to remind him to be cautious in future collaborations.
"It's a pity about Pengji. It was taken over by those guys from China Merchants Group. If it were in Poly's hands, it would have been incredibly valuable," my cousin said with a hint of regret.
"Our boss bought two ships in the United States, one is an aircraft carrier and the other is a strategic cruiser."
"Really? How could an American dare to sell this to your boss? Wait a minute! I've never heard of this before!" Xie Hongbing asked, his eyes wide.
"It seems the Shanghai Shipbuilding Research Institute has contracted to renovate two ships. Our boss agreed to it."
“Hey, wait a minute. Didn’t you say your boss is young? Introduce me to him, and I’ll treat him to dinner.”
"Forget it, your company isn't enough to treat him to a few dishes. How about this, I'll go back and check his schedule, and arrange a meeting for you two. It's not against the rules for you to see him, is it?"
"No, normal friendships are fine."
Just as Xie Hongbing finished speaking, Xie Yingying's phone rang.
After answering the call for a few minutes, I said to my older cousin, "The boss is calling, I have to go. Wait for my call, cousin."
