The receptionist looked at her with a puzzled expression and said seriously, "Miss, no! Didn't you want to see Mr. Huo Yuanchen? He is him!"
An Moxue knew the receptionist wouldn't lie, and cursed inwardly, "Could this be a cursed fate?"
At this moment, Huo Yuanchen stood up, dressed in a suit and tie, and said in a gentle and approachable manner, "Miss, we are really destined to meet. In just a few days, we have met four times."
An Moxue couldn't help but wonder to herself, what kind of fate is this?
But his face was full of doubt as he asked, "Are you Huo Yuanchen from GF Securities Investment Bank, the investment banking guru who's jokingly called 'Big Yuanbao'?"
He maintained his good-natured demeanor: "I am indeed Huo Yuanchen, but the rest is just hearsay and shouldn't be taken seriously. Miss, please sit down."
Then he said to the receptionist, "Lili, make this lady a cup of coffee."
An Moxue then said to Lili, "Please add milk and sugar. I don't like bitter coffee, thank you."
Lili whispered something in Huo Yuanchen's ear and then left.
Huo Yuanchen had long been aware of her unwillingness to suffer losses; she wouldn't compromise herself even for a cup of coffee. He had seen it all, but it wasn't surprising. He had met all sorts of clients.
He smiled at An Moxue and asked, "May I ask how you are addressed, Miss?"
An Moxue sat on the sofa, looking around at the room's furnishings. They were neat, clean, and tidy. Her fourth impression was that it was alright.
She looked away and said, "Jido, you can just call me Jido."
“Miss Jido, you are just like your name, a fairy-like person.”
An Moxue's heart skipped a beat. She hadn't expected him to know what Jiduo meant; he must have some goods, right?
"Thank you. I came here because of your reputation, but Mr. Huo, whether you can take the money from my hand depends on your abilities!"
Huo Yuanchen sat down in the chair and asked, "Does Miss have any intentions? Would you prefer a long-term or short-term investment?"
"When it comes to investing, naturally you want to maximize returns, but I prefer long-term, stable investments. Short-term, high-yield investments are also an option. I wonder how your bank guarantees the interests of its clients?"
Upon hearing her words, Huo Yuanchen formed a plan in his mind. He then took a document, stood up, and handed it to An Moxue, saying, "Miss Jiduo, why don't you take a look at this contract and this report first, and then we can talk, shall we?"
An Moxue took the documents and began to read them carefully.
Just then, Lili brought in two cups of coffee, gently placed them on the table, and quietly left, closing the door behind her.
An Moxue examined the documents carefully. When she looked up again, she mentally reassessed Huo Yuanchen's standing, but her words were somewhat cold: "Mr. Huo, forgive my bluntness, but the data in the documents is acceptable. However, both times I saw you, you were being chased by a group of thugs. This makes me doubt your competence and character. Moreover, the amount of money I intend to invest is not a small sum. How can you dispel my doubts?"
"Miss Jiduo isn't from Hong Kong, is she?" Although his question was phrased as a question, both An Moxue and he knew the certainty in his words.
"Yes, I am from Mongolia."
"I never expected that I would get to know Miss Jido from such a distance. It really is fate."
The moment he mentioned fate, An Moxue wanted to curse. "If you're so superstitious, why are you even investing? You should just go set up a fortune-telling stall."
After saying that, seeing that An Moxue's expression wasn't very good, he continued, "Everyone in the area knows my background, and no one questions my status or position. That's why everyone feels comfortable investing in my investment bank. I won't go into details here; I think it's more convincing if you hear it from others. Besides, I think there's nothing better than clearly defining the rights and responsibilities of both parties in the contract, as well as guaranteeing a minimum return on investment. What do you think?"
An Moxue thought about it and realized that was true. Besides, the amount of money in this suitcase was just a drop in the bucket for her. Then she asked, "If I invest with you, what is the minimum guaranteed return on my investment? I'm not satisfied with what's in this contract."
"Then, Miss Jiduo, how much are you planning to invest?" Huo Yuanchen's tone remained gentle, unchanged despite An Moxue's announcement of her intention to invest.
"Look for yourself." An Moxue pointed to the suitcase, then picked up her coffee and slowly sipped it.
Huo Yuanchen opened his suitcase, his lips twitching involuntarily. He glanced at An Moxue, who was leisurely sipping her coffee. When she saw him looking over, she complimented, "The coffee is good, very delicious."
His lips twitched again uncontrollably. She was drinking coffee ground from his own private coffee beans, the most expensive kind in Brazil, which he usually couldn't bear to drink. He didn't expect that Lily would be willing to give it to her. It seemed that he was treating her well.
He was truly exasperated; it was the first time he'd ever met someone like this. He asked, "Miss Jido, would you mind if we tallied up the funds first, and then discussed the details?"
"Can."
Huo Yuanchen got up and made an internal call. A few moments later, several people came in. When they saw the money and gold in the suitcase, they all looked at An Moxue as if she were a nouveau riche.
Soon, the funds were tallied, and the group went out again. Huo Yuanchen said, "Miss Jiduo, given the size of your funds, you can be classified as one of our top clients. This is a revised contract for you based on the amount of your funds. Take a look at it, and if there's anything you're not satisfied with, you can let me know."
An Moxue took the contract, which was more detailed than the sample contract, especially the section on minimum benefit guarantees. An Moxue was very satisfied with the overall contract.
Looking up at Huo Yuanchen, he said, "Mr. Huo, although I don't yet know your background, I'm quite satisfied with the data and the contract. How about we reach an agreement today?"
Huo Yuanchen was surprised by An Moxue's straightforwardness and couldn't help but ask with a smile, "Miss Jiduo, did you bring your identification?"
"I brought it."
"Alright, let's sign a letter of intent first. I'll then provide a detailed investment agreement and discuss the investment details with Ms. An. Does that sound good?"
"Can."
Next, Huo Yuanchen prepared the contract, and both parties signed it smoothly.
After the signing was completed, Huo Yuanchen asked, "Miss Jiduo, how can I contact you?"
"I am currently staying at the International Hotel, room number is..."
Huo Yuanchen, with a gentle and refined demeanor, smiled at An Moxue and said, "Miss Jiduo, I will prepare the proposal and then go to see you. It would be a pleasure to work with you."
An Moxue looked at him, exuding an air of nobility: "It's a pleasure to work with you."
The two shook hands, but only they knew what they were thinking.
