Chapter 777: Only 200 million. Hua Yuan
"Sister Li, you don't seem to be short of money, right?"
After hearing what Miss Li said, Zhou Anan asked with some confusion.
Although he has been dealing with the other party for quite some time, Zhou Anan has never had any interest interactions with him.
What's more, with the Dali Group's booming situation, Miss Li, who doesn't need to start a business or keep a gigolo, should not be short of money at all.
Young Master Li is the first in line to inherit the Dali Group, and Young Miss Li must also have a lot of shares. Coupled with her excellent side businesses, she has never fallen to the point where she needs him to invest and make money.
"Who told you I don't need money? I need hundreds of millions. If you have some, you can lend it to me. I'll give you 10% interest."
After taking a sip of coffee, Li Shuting talked about her lack of money, still as elegant as ever.
What she didn't make clear was that the hundreds of millions were in U.S. dollars.
“.”
I have hundreds of millions of dollars. Wouldn't it be nice to invest in real estate or buy some stocks? Why should I covet that 10% interest rate? Are you crazy?
Suddenly, Zhou Anan thought of an event that shocked the world.
Has the cross-border acquisition project that will establish Dali Group as the No. 1 domestic automobile brand in China started now?
I don’t quite know when the cross-border acquisition of VOVO Cars started, but Zhou Anan felt that this was the implication of Miss Li’s joke.
This is a man's intuition, the steely sixth sense of a reborn person.
"How about it?"
Seeing no response from the other party, Li Shuting asked again.
Although she was half joking, there was sincerity in her eyes.
She knew the young man's wealth, and if he was willing to lend her money, he would definitely have several hundred million.
"Sister Shu Ting, are you confident in handing over the money to me?"
Ignoring the question about borrowing money, Zhou Anan instead asked about investment.
Miss Li seldom told anyone about the money she made in the Hong Kong stock market, so Zhou Anan had no idea where her confidence came from.
Anyway, it is impossible to borrow money unless Dali Group is willing to sell shares to him, but that is unlikely.
Business people throughout Jiang Province are well aware of how obsessed the head of the Li family is with the absolute controlling rights of the Dali Group.
If Dali Group is willing to sell its shares, there will be plenty of people offering money to them.
"I wanted to borrow some money from Xian'er, but she didn't have much cash, so she asked me to ask you to invest. If I lose money, I won't blame you."
Speaking of this reason, Li Shuting's eyes were full of interest.
You have to know that what she lacks is not a few hundred million dollars, but hundreds of millions of dollars.
But after Yu Xian'er knew about her funding gap, she asked her to come to this young brother for help. The meaning behind this is intriguing.
She really wanted to know the secret, but she didn't ask Yu Xian'er more.
For some things, trying to get to the bottom of them will only lead to missed opportunities.
"Oh, how much money does Sister Shu Ting plan to invest?"
Hearing that it was Miss Yu who recommended it, Zhou Anan no longer had any doubts and asked casually.
In this case, Zhou Anan didn't mind helping the other party make some quick money, which could be considered as a contribution to an important step forward for domestically produced cars.
It’s better not to worry about leaving a name in history. One should be low-key in life.
"Five hundred million."
Seeing that the other party did not show any surprise, Li Shuting raised her eyebrows and said a number.
"Ahem, Sister Shu Ting."
I didn't expect Miss Li to be so cruel. Zhou Anan couldn't help coughing twice, trying to persuade the other party to be more careful.
"Dollar."
After a pause, Li Shuting told the unit of the number.
"Cough cough cough"
Covering his mouth with his fist, Zhou Anan prepared to stand up and say goodbye.
Are you kidding? 500 million US dollars, even the money he kept in the Swiss Bank in Hong Kong is not that much.
What? Are they going to put all the funds for buying Wowo cars on him?
Zhou Anan was afraid that if he was not careful, he would lose his investment and might immediately become the sinner of the Chinese automobile industry.
"Okay, I want to give you $500 million, but I don't have that much cash. The funds I can take out now are only 200 million yuan. Can you help me invest it?"
Without continuing to tease the young man, Li Shuting told him the real investment amount.
In fact, the funds she can use are definitely more than this amount, but at this critical juncture of starting negotiations, Li Shuting doesn't want to cause any trouble.
Although Yu Xianer's recommendation must be reliable, when it comes to investment, nothing is 100% absolute.
Their Li family has not yet reached the point where they are risking everything.
"Okay, but I won't be responsible if you lose money."
Zhou Anan found the investment figure barely acceptable, so she agreed.
He didn't know how much money the Dali Group spent on purchasing Wowo Automobile in the previous life, but that number was definitely not a small amount, and it was in the unit of 'billion dollars'.
Even if there is a small mistake in the funds on his side, it will not affect the overall situation.
Zhou Anan also roughly confirmed why Miss Li wanted to invest.
Perhaps, it is the current intensifying global financial crisis that has given Dali Group the opportunity to acquire Wowo Auto.
Otherwise, China Automobile will need more opportunities to take this step.
"As for the money, give me an account number and I'll transfer it to you tomorrow."
Seeing that the other party agreed to the investment of 200 million yuan without hesitation, Li Shuting's eyes flashed with a strange look, but she did not change her mind.
As for whether she would be cheated by the other party, Li Shuting was not worried.
In terms of apparent assets, this young man in front of them is worth hundreds of billions, not much less than what their Dali Group has accumulated over decades.
At worst, I can ask Yu Xianer for help and borrow a few hundred million more.
"Okay, I'll transfer the funds back to you before the end of the year."
Simple and straightforward, Zhou Anan also gave a deadline.
From beginning to end, Li Shuting never asked about the investment method and rate of return, and Zhou Anan never asked the other party why he was short of money.
This is a favor, not a transaction.
Of course, it would be reasonable to deduct a certain percentage of the profits as compensation. Zhou Anan is not a saint.
"If there is any news about my brother, please tell me in time."
"rest assured."
After discussing the important matters of the evening, Zhou Anan chatted with Miss Li for a while, and then said goodbye and left after she finished a cup of coffee.
"Mr. Shu, Mr. Zhou has left."
"Um."
After listening to the female assistant's reply, Li Shuting, who was standing by the windowsill watching the Maserati drive away, turned around and responded calmly.
"The news from the President's Office is that Wowo Motors is offering a price of $3 billion."
"Heh, a foreigner is a foreigner. He wants to sell himself but still considers being reserved."
With a sneer, Li Shuting, who appeared calm on the surface, had helplessness in her eyes.
The road to the rise of China's domestic automobile brands is extremely difficult. Now that they have finally waited for the opportunity to acquire foreign automobile companies in their entirety, they are limited by insufficient funds.
Even if it reaches the $2 billion they expected, it is still an astronomical figure.
With the capital of their Dali Group, even if they borrowed the maximum amount from the bank, it would be impossible for them to come up with so much cash.
Even if that young man doubled his investment, it would only be a drop in the bucket and could only be a consolation.
I can only hope that my dad has better financing channels.
"Two hundred million... Huayuan?"
Hearing the numbers her younger brother said on the phone, Yu Xianer, who was applying a facial mask, couldn't help but open her eyes and rolled her eyes.
That Miss Li was too cautious. She spent such a small amount of money for such an important piece of information.
Yu Xian'er was well aware of the financial problems that Dali Group was facing now. She also knew about the huge profits her brother had made last year and some investment plans for this year.
If it weren't for the fact that Dali Group has brought glory to the country, Yu Xian'er would never have revealed such secret information to outsiders, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble for his younger brother.
"When I make some money, I'll treat Sister Xian'er to a big meal."
As if she could guess what Miss Yu was thinking at the moment, Zhou Anan parked the car and said something with a smile, ending the call between the two.
Zhou Anan could guess the reason why Miss Yu revealed to Miss Li without asking.
However, Zhou Anan could not guarantee how much profit he could make by sweeping the U.S. stock market in the middle of this year, and it was possible that he would lose money by accident.
If it affects the opportunity of Dali Group to acquire WoWo, then he would be a real sinner.
Well, the above are all excuses. Zhou Anan just doesn’t want to take the blame, even though the loss might be only 0.02.
"Xian'er, is this Xiao Anzi's phone number?"
Wang Xiaoxiao, who was also watching TV while applying a facial mask, slapped her face and asked curiously.
"Well, Xiaoxiao, if An An wants to invest in a project and asks you to invest with him, how much are you prepared to invest?"
Thinking of another best friend, Yu Xianer asked casually.
