Actor: Thank you.

People who have been in prison for a long time will fall into a period of "confusion" after being released from prison.

A sudden change in living environment can make people very uncomfortable.

Because people have self-regulating mechanisms.

When in a harsh environment, you will automatically adjust your mental state to match the current situation.

Abbreviation: numb.

People who suffer from domestic violence for a long time will also feel numb.

Poor students in school will also become numb.

Liu Tao is in the same situation now.

After being detained for several days, I feel a little numb.

My nerves are all thickened.

I feel like a puppet at the mercy of others.

Although his master Song Xunxun had given him some advice, he not only did not suffer any abuse, but also had no worries about food and drink.

But I have also been in a state of constant anxiety.

So, when Zhang Yuan arrived and told her that he would be able to go home to see his children the next day, she just thought that he was singing a "happy song" and saying auspicious words.

Not taking it seriously at all.

It's already numb.

In the first few days after bankruptcy, especially when Qin Hailu gave her several million, she still had some fantasy in her heart.

I always feel that things will turn around.

There must be some friends or relatives who will come to rescue her.

But after waiting for so long, all I got was despair.

Song Xunxun’s greeting is just a greeting, but paying back a debt is only natural.

It's not like they can just let it go with just a word from you.

So now that she was truly “free,” she fell into a state of confusion as she stood in the empty parking lot outside the club.

Unbelievable, unbelievable.

I was in a daze and didn't know how I got out of it.

From the private room to the outdoors, the entire journey was clearly before my eyes, but I could not remember it at all.

It was as if this memory was completely wiped out.

My head is confused.

So Zhang Yuan asked her whether she wanted to leave today or rest for a night before leaving. It was only after he asked her twice that she finally reacted.

I didn't fully react.

When she heard "Do you want to rest for a night before leaving?", she took it as Zhang Yuan's hint.

rest……

Only then did she wake up from her dream.

I really came out!
I can go home now!

Thinking back to what Zhang Yuan had said to her when he came, that he would be able to go home to see his daughter tomorrow, it was absolutely true!

1.2 billion!
Pay off within one year.

She couldn't do it anyway.

Wang Ke’s situation is even worse.

Financial bankruptcy is not the most terrible thing; what is terrible is credit bankruptcy.

No one will invest in him again and help him make a comeback.

Those who work in finance rely on credit.

Otherwise where did the name Ponzi scheme come from.

Right now, at the same time, the "Madoff case" in the United States has already exposed.

Bernard Madoff, former chairman of NASDAQ, star Wall Street broker, and famous North American philanthropist, was arrested for a huge Ponzi scheme.

The "word-of-mouth business" that has lasted for decades has completely collapsed.

Madoff did the opposite. On Wall Street, where there was gold everywhere and any investment institution could guarantee a return rate of more than 15%, he only provided an annual return of about 10%.

However, the return model is that investors will receive a fixed return of about 1% of their principal every month.

Coupled with Madoff's connections and network, he was invincible.

After the financial crisis in 08, his tactics of robbing Peter to pay Paul were exposed.

Spain's Tanzander Bank, BNP Paribas, Switzerland's UBP Bank, HSBC, Societe Generale... a large number of the world's top banks have become victims.

Adding the funds of various investors and institutions, the total loss reached 500 billion US dollars.

Compared with him, Wang Ke is just a younger brother. The Beacon Country is more ruthless when it comes to finance.

However, financial investment, especially private equity funds, is different from traditional industrial entrepreneurship.

In traditional industries, you can start a business, go bankrupt, start a business again, go bankrupt again, start a business repeatedly, go bankrupt repeatedly... and keep doing it.

Commander Sichuan University has gone bankrupt six times, but that’s okay.

There will even be more people investing.

Because whether it is a traditional industry or an Internet industry, the initial investment is at most tens of millions or hundreds of millions.

Large investment companies "hatch" hundreds of companies every year. As long as one of these hundred companies is successfully listed, the losses of the rest can be earned back.

So Mr. Lei said that his experience in financing is that you should not be afraid of meeting creditors.

If you lose, you lose. You have to maintain the relationship even after bankruptcy. In fact, people don’t care about your compensation at all.

When I give you money, I am prepared to not be able to take it back.

Zhang Yuan is like this now.

Wu Jing should just compensate him, no matter how much money he can afford.

I can make it back from other films.

But it’s different in the financial industry, people are here for cash!

If you lose everything, there will be no second chance.

For specific results, you can refer to the famous film and television character, Ding Hai.

Why did Ding Hai throw all his sons off the building after the "technical adjustment"?

Because you lose more than just your own money!

The situation that Ding Hai has to face is similar to that of Wang Ke, or even worse.

Because the people he was raising funds from were both the black and white worlds in Hong Kong, as well as some people in Southeast Asia.

However, Wang Ke and Ding Hai are not only similar in their bankruptcy situations, but also in their styles of doing things.

After Ding Hai threw the ball down to his sons, he lost his courage when it was his turn and finally slipped down accidentally.

His feet were hooked by electric wires. He escaped death but was arrested and imprisoned, but he still showed no remorse.

This character is good, and that's what makes it a classic. He is thoroughly bad and consistent.

The same thing happened to Wang Ke. After he lost the money, he was the first to collapse, and all the responsibility fell on his wife and children.

His whole family cleans up his mess, but he himself still acts crazy at home every day.

Because he was dizzy and looked disabled, people didn't want to take him as a "hostage".

Because there's no point in catching him.

Another thing, what if Liu Tao runs away with the child?
All of Sister Zhao's creditors concede that he is worthless.

And like Ding Hai, Wang Ke never thinks it is his fault.

He has always said that the market conditions were bad and his partner backstabbed him.

If you don't play so big, it won't come to this.

It's just my own greed.

Liu Tao came to his senses and stared at Zhang Yuan blankly.

Compared to him, my husband is not even a man.

It was because others helped me pay back my debts that I had the opportunity to stand in this free air.

How can I repay them?

Liu Tao thought about it and realized that he didn't have anything valuable on him.

All we have is this body.

It was quite fun when we played together before.

Giving sexual compensation to Zhang Yuan is better than giving sexual compensation to a stranger.

Not only am I familiar with it, but based on past experience, I don't seem to be at a disadvantage.

At the same time, she was also feeling very depressed, having suppressed her emotions for a long time, and wanted to find a chance to release them.

So this one sentence confused Zhang Yuan.

"Wait a moment." Zhang Yuan raised his hand to stop him.

At the same time, it was discovered that Zeng Jia had also contracted the same "problem" as Zhao Xinxin.

When Liu Tao said he wanted to accompany him, he immediately walked away for a distance.

It seemed as if he would agree.

At the same time, he also gave a look of approval.

Look, there are actresses rushing to accompany my boss.

What's that called?
That's called skill!

Zhang Yuan shook his head helplessly and said, "Stop slandering me!"

"First of all, I want to make one thing clear."

"Although it may not seem like it, I have my bottom line."

"I don't get involved with married women." Zhang Yuan clearly stated his code of conduct.

"you dislike me?"

"is not what it means."

"I have been exercising since giving birth, and my body is still quite tight," said Sister Tao.

Zhang Yuan: …

Do all you married women speak so bluntly?

"I'm talking about the skin." Liu Tao added with a sidelong smile.

The best thing you're talking about is the skin... Seeing that she could joke, Zhang Yuan knew that her emotions had stabilized.

"But you've helped me so much, I have no way to repay you." Liu Tao became serious again.

"It's okay, I told you, no need to thank me."

"Although I was implicated in this matter, resolving the problem will benefit both of us."

"You are generous, it's your character." "But I can't take it lightly."

"What do you need from me..."

Zeng Jia heard this from afar and thought it was a good opportunity!

Let her sign a contract with us quickly and make a "indenture".

But Zhang Yuan replied firmly.

"No."

"What you need to do now is to rest well, take good care of yourself, and then meet up with your family and have a good reunion."

"When you've recovered, we can talk about other things."

When Liu Tao heard this, he was surprised and thought, this person had just helped me solve a huge problem, but he was still concerned about my feelings.

Suddenly, a strong music sounded in my ears.

"If the heart is there, the dream is there."

"There is still true love between heaven and earth, alas..."

"No matter success or failure, life is heroic."

“It’s just starting over again!”

Every word of this song seems to be written for her.

"But let's not talk about the rest. Can you really come up with the 1.2 million for the first year?"

"I won't do anything I'm not sure of." Zhang Yuan scratched his temples: "How do you think I was able to afford that courtyard house?"

Sister Tao thought so too. That house is worth a lot of money, and he bought it anyway.

It seems that her husband's wealth is false, and Zhang Yuan's wealth is real.

"But even if you can take it out, I can't pay it back?" Liu Tao said while sobbing.

It's rare that you cry because you are moved, not because you are sad.

"I don't have anything to give you."

"How about..." Liu Tao thought for a moment: "I'll give you a child?"

Zhang Yuan: …

The more you talk about it, the more exciting it becomes!
The reason why Liu Tao said this was because the people who captured her really said so.

If that doesn't work, let her give birth to a child to pay off the debt.

There are many such things.

Moreover, letting a woman have a baby does not necessarily mean that she wants the baby.

Sometimes it is just a part of these people’s PLAY and they treat it as a game.

A ring-tossing game similar to the ones in parks and night markets.

A group of people take turns putting rings on the ball, and whoever gets the ring put on the ball in the end wins.

For many wealthy people, ordinary Pai Gow and roulette have long been boring, so they have to try something new.

Zhang Yuan thought to himself, are you trying to repay me or take advantage of me?

I am a good young man. Not only will I contribute my genes to you, but I will also divide my inheritance among my children... I am repaying kindness with enmity.

"Let's go, let's go quickly, I'll book a plane ticket for you."

"They've started talking nonsense." Zhang Yuan asked Zeng Jia to call a car, and they headed straight to the airport.

Along the way, including the time waiting at the airport, Liu Tao's phone never stopped ringing.

Call your husband, parents, and master one by one.

Laugh for a while, cry for a while.

"Our flight has arrived. See you later."

One of them went to the Magic City, and the other returned to the Imperial City, but they took different paths.

"Hey, wait a moment..." Liu Tao put down her phone and remembered what Zhang Yuan had told her about the contract.

She felt she was not worth the money.

How can it be worth 1.2 million!

It's not worth being someone's mistress for a lifetime, let alone being a contracted artist.

After these days of "brainwashing", she has begun to objectify herself, always thinking that her body is the most valuable thing.

"I'll talk to you when I get back to the imperial capital."

"We are good friends who have been through thick and thin together. When the time comes, invite your family and Teacher Dandan to have a meal together."

Zhang Yuan waved his hand and turned away.

"Hey, you..."

Before she finished speaking, Zhang Yuan had already left.

"Boss, why didn't you mention such a good opportunity just now?" On the flight, Zeng Jia said what she had been holding back for a long time.

"When interacting with people, you have to treat the symptoms according to their symptoms." Zhang Yuan covered himself with a blanket and closed his eyes.

He was tired too.

“For those who are greedy for money, just talk about money.”

"For those who value love, just talk about love."

"Then how can you be sure that Liu Tao is a sentimental person?" Zeng Jia didn't understand.

Zhang Yuan rolled his eyes at her: "If she didn't value love, she would have run away long ago!"

"Can you wait until you are caught and pay off your husband's debt?"

"Also, I deliberately didn't mention this, but it was actually the same as mentioning it."

"It's like when you fail a test and your dad comes home from the parent-teacher conference and never mentions anything about your grades."

“You’ll always be on tenterhooks.”

"To be honest, beating you up will make me feel better."

"Since she is a sentimental person, this kind of mental attack will be quite useful to her."

"I don't have to look for her. She will come to me."

Zhang Yuan knew that even if Liu Tao didn't come himself, Song Xinxin would still ask her to come.

Teacher Dandan is the head of the family and is very well-behaved.

Even without Teacher Dandan, Wang Ke would have to call her over.

Because letting his wife work for him is the fastest and most direct way to pay off his debts.

Now, besides Sister Zhao, I am another creditor.

In fact, the two parties are already deeply bound.

Forcing people to sign the contract immediately at this time is not only ugly, but also appears impetuous.

It is also easy to leave people with bad psychological hints.

He helped me just to squeeze me and make money...

I don't have this idea now, but in a few years when she earns more and I get a bigger share, it's possible that I won't have this idea.

Even if you help others, you have to consider their feelings.

Human hearts are very complicated. It has been very common since ancient times for people to be grateful for a little bit of rice and to be resentful for a big bit of rice.

Zeng Jia understood, but not completely.

She roughly understood that the boss was trying to win people's hearts.

But that's okay, there's another thing she really doesn't understand at all.

After hesitating for a long time, she asked softly while Zhang Yuan was still asleep.

"Boss, since they want to buy our house."

"It would be fine if you didn't want to sell it, but you even left the property certificate with someone else."

"Then why not just sell it?"

"We've gone through so much trouble and still owed such a huge debt. Aren't we at a huge loss?"

"Good question." Zhang Yuan opened his eyes: "First of all, I want the house, I don't plan to sell it."

"Next, have you ever thought about what would happen if I sold the house to Sister Zhao?"

"Whether the other party can pay the full amount is up to you."

"Do you believe that once I sell the house, the original owner will dare to come and ask for the remaining 500 million US dollars?"

"Think about it again. Why did they not answer our calls when we contacted the original owner and would rather not take the final payment of $500 million?"

"Is he afraid of me?"

"Are you still afraid of Wang Ke?"

"I'm afraid of the whole family behind Sister Zhao!"

"Once the house is sold, my relationship with Sister Zhao and the others will be over."

"The original owner, who has no one to suppress him, will most likely come out and ask for money."

"Five million US dollars is not a small amount. Will they give it up easily?"

"As long as Sister Zhao's pressure is still there, they will definitely not show their heads because they are afraid of being found by the other party and suffering more losses."

"I put the property certificate in someone else's hands. Not only can I avoid selling the house, but I can also use it to suppress the original owner."

"This is called driving a tiger to swallow a wolf, do you understand?"

"He has caused me so much trouble, so he will never get the final payment of 500 million US dollars in his lifetime!"

According to Zhang Yuan's calculations, the maximum amount he could get from selling the house was 700 million US dollars.

And there is a high probability that you won’t get it.

At the same time, there is the risk of the original owner coming to collect the $500 million debt.

You may not make money in the short term, but you will definitely lose money in the long term.

If I don't sell the house, I will owe more than 1 million yuan in debt.

But the house itself is worth that much and will continue to appreciate in value.

You can also deal with Liu Tao, the cash cow.

There will definitely be losses in the short term, but there will definitely be profits in the long term.

And will there really be losses in the short term?

"Didn't you hear me?"

"I want to make friends with Sister Zhao and the others."

"Every crisis is also an opportunity. The key is how you look at it."

“Although I owe a debt, I am also showing my ability to the other party.”

"Leaving their lineage behind, who knows, it might be useful someday..." (End of this chapter)
