Chapter 714 Ambition to Become King
“I don’t have an answer to this question either.”
Shrugging her shoulders, Li Yili, who really didn't know the specific reason, answered very straightforwardly, and then asked: "Brother An, are you not going to fulfill our agreement?"
"Of course not. With the protection of Excalibur Capital, I certainly couldn't ask for more."
Without pursuing the issue further, Zhou Anan agreed.
The other party had previously lent him 1 billion yuan for free, and that was just one request. If he went back on his word, he would not be able to withstand the wrath of Excalibur Capital.
To be honest, Zhou Anan still has a little confidence in shorting US stocks.
From the Hong Kong drama he watched in his previous life, Zhou Anan remembered that around the middle of this year, Lehman Brothers would go bankrupt and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac would be forcibly nationalized.
These two points alone provide a lot of room for maneuver.
It is better not to enter the market in the first few months of this year.
The plot in that Hong Kong drama seems to be that in the first few months of 2008, the U.S. stock market had been fluctuating constantly, ups and downs, which gave the son of the richest man in Hong Kong hope.
Under the advice of a scumbag manager, the "son of Hong Kong's richest man" poured money into that bottomless pit again and again. Eventually Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, the two housing agencies suffered losses, and he squandered his fortune of tens of billions, only to be taken advantage of by the male protagonist of the Hong Kong drama.
Although not an insider, Zhou Anan, who has a general understanding of the short-selling rules, naturally knows that the fluctuations in the stock market are an uncertain nightmare for both short and long sellers.
No one can step on the node of ups and downs accurately.
Could it be that the other party was attracted by his luck?
He was quite lucky to be able to make more than double the profit from the decline of Hong Kong stocks.
He guessed that there was some superstition in this, but it was still very popular in the financial market.
As her thoughts turned, Zhou Anan felt that she had found a more suitable reason.
Anyway, with such a huge amount of capital as Excalibur Capital, it is impossible for them to cheat him under such circumstances, otherwise why would they lend him 1 billion yuan without interest?
Even if you get cheated, the worst that can happen is that you lose this part of the profit.
“I wish us a pleasant cooperation.”
Seeing that the other party agreed, Li Yili smiled and raised the red wine glass in her hand.
Although the possibility of the other party refusing is relatively small, as the head of Greater China, she is still a little worried before things are finalized.
“It’s been a pleasure working with you.”
After drinking a small cup with the other party, Zhou Anan asked with a little curiosity: "How much are you going to take?"
"Ten."
After hearing the other party's question, Li Yili smiled and raised a finger.
"Dollar?!"
"uh-huh."
“…”
Zhou Anan suddenly felt that the little money she had was really just a small amount in the eyes of the other party.
Look, other people start with $1 billion to play with US stocks, but he used his reborn prophet to gamble for two months, and only earned $200 million, and still had to worry about huge losses.
He was a little proud and a little arrogant before, but now he sees that there is nothing to be proud of or arrogant about.
However, from another perspective, he doesn't have to worry about the other party setting a trap for him, which makes him feel much more at ease.
"Are you in Hong Kong now?"
After having Chinese food with a foreign beauty, Zhou Anan had just transferred some money to General Manager Feng when she received a call from the other party.
"Um."
"In just two months, the profit has more than doubled??!!!"
"Um."
"Then why did you transfer it to me so quickly? Why don't you do it for a few more months?"
“…”
Before the short selling, Feng Jiming transferred all his assets to him, about 12.5 million. This time Zhou Anan rounded off the amount for him and transferred 30 million.
I don’t know whether he lost money or not.
After the other party was silent for a few seconds, Feng Jiming changed the subject angrily: "It just so happens that if you are in Hong Kong City, you can meet with the person in charge of HY Entertainment in Southern Dynasty to discuss the Chinese performing arts contract of the WG girl group."
"That won't happen."
When Zhou Anan heard that he was asked to do some work, he directly refused.
Are you kidding? He has never been involved in this kind of business before, his beautiful secretary is not around, and he doesn’t even have an assistant. How can he talk to the other party?
Shall we sing Hallo Kiti together?
"You don't have to do anything, just have a drink and a meal with the person in charge and entertain him. We have basically agreed on the terms of the contract, and the main thing is to exchange feelings. By the way, I heard that the four girls in the girl group are all good-looking. Although the plastic surgery technology of the Southern Dynasty is a bit stronger, they are young. If it weren't for the establishment ceremony of the video website we cooperated with TX today, I would definitely go by myself..."
"Okay, I'm going to have a meal with the other party."
As for the second half of General Manager Feng's words, Zhou Anan thought that there was nothing wrong with going for a meal, thinking back to the welcoming ceremony at the airport this morning.
It's not like he has to go through fire and water, so he's not afraid at all.
"I'll talk to the person in charge of our company's Hong Kong branch, and he will contact you."
Seeing that the major shareholder agreed, Feng Jiming showed a meaningful smile.
The major shareholder helped him earn so much private money, so naturally he had to make good arrangements for him.
Look, the other party doesn’t suffer any loss at all.
"good."
After hanging up the call with General Manager Feng, Zhou Anan first asked the Swiss Bank account manager to convert the Hong Kong dollars in the account into Chinese Yuan, as he would not use the funds until May.
During this economic crisis, only the Chinese Yuan has appreciated steadily.
Although the exchange rate fluctuation may not seem significant, with more than one billion Hong Kong dollars in a bank account, the depreciation in just these few months would amount to a difference of hundreds of millions.
As for the 300 million low-interest loan previously borrowed from a Swiss bank, the time has not yet come, so there is no need to rush to repay it.
Compared with the market conditions in the next year, that little bit of interest is just a drop in the bucket.
"Mr. Zhou, I have already done it for you."
Handing the black private bank card to the big client she had been serving, Zhang Qian had the most charming smile on her face.
Who would have thought that she was just a customer with a deposit of 5 million yuan at the beginning, but now she has more than 1 billion yuan in funds. Her position has naturally risen.
"Thanks."
After receiving the upgraded bank card, Zhou Anan went shopping in the mall first.
The dinner with the director of HY Entertainment of Southern Dynasty has not yet arrived, but Zhou Anan has to fulfill her promise to Miss Wang first and bring some gifts for her girlfriend.
Having just received more than 1.6 billion yuan in revenue, Zhou Anan was not stingy when it came to spending the money.
At the same time, standing in a large banquet hall of a five-star hotel in Pengcheng, Feng Jiming stood on the stage and lit up a ball together with several shareholder leaders including the president of TX and Changshan Capital.
The four big words "Tomorrow's Video" radiated from the sphere to the screen above, like reflecting the starry sky. The reporters in the banquet hall quickly pressed the buttons of their cameras, and the flashing lights came on one after another.
Tomorrow Video, with a first phase investment of 1.5 billion yuan, was officially established. The general manager of the website immediately announced that Tomorrow Video had obtained the exclusive video website live broadcast rights for this year's Chinese Olympic Games, which caused exclamations from the audience.
A fierce tiger has arrived in the field of video websites.
"Mr. Chen, you are really generous."
In response to the exclamations of the reporters below the stage, Feng Jiming had to admire President Chen next to him.
Unlike other outsiders, Feng Jiming, as a major shareholder, knows clearly that Tomorrow Video spent 100 million yuan in sponsorship fees in order to obtain the exclusive video website live broadcast rights for the Olympics.
There is no telling how many relationships there are among them.
In a word, rich and powerful.
They, Blue Whale Entertainment, don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse for cooperating with the other party.
"Mr. Feng, in terms of content, we still need to rely on you, Blue Whale."
After hearing what the other party said, Chen Yuhua responded politely.
Now that the Internet Copyright Association has been officially established, relevant laws and regulations will soon be introduced. The video website sector will definitely face a reshuffle, and the party with high-quality video resources will have an absolute advantage.
In this area, Blue Whale's performance in the past two years has been obvious to all. Whether it is film and television or variety shows, it has gained excellent reputation. This is also an important reason why TX did not seek cooperation with several giants in the film and television industry.
Those giants have become somewhat rigid in their thinking, and only the thriving Blue Whale can bring considerable profits to video websites in the future.
"We at Blue Whale will definitely not let Mr. Chen down."
Feng Jiming answered this question very calmly.
Now that we have cooperated with this Internet giant, we must demonstrate our own value, which is the basis for our continued cooperation.
What's more, Blue Whale Entertainment has always had the ambition to be the king in this area.
“I’m looking forward to it.”
While General Manager Feng was toasting with several other capital giants, Zhou Anan's heart beat slightly faster as he looked at the four delicate and sentimental girls in front of him.
