The penniless son of the penniless ...

Chapter 60: Secret Collaboration with Leon John
Zhang Junfeng thought for a while and sighed helplessly. He was obviously "close to the water", but his current strength was not enough to compete with a country. If he wanted to gain more benefits in this "crisis", he could only look for partners!

It seems that after Leon John has enjoyed himself tomorrow, I will have to talk to him again to see if I can get Goldman Sachs to get involved so that it can share the pressure from the Blue House and other aspects while Goryeo acquires high-quality companies.

……

Zhang Junfeng patted Wu Mingxi, who was a little distracted, and said with a smile, "Director Wu, the next few tough battles will require your attention! Do you want to bring one or two women you like back to relieve the pressure?"

Wu Mingxi smiled awkwardly and quickly declined Zhang Junfeng's kindness. Although he was a little tempted when he saw those women dressed up and passionate for the first time.

But as time went by, he gradually regained his usual calmness. Benefits and status were his real pursuits. As for beautiful women, although he appreciated them, he was not so eager for them.

Seeing this, Zhang Junfeng didn't say much. Before having someone send Wu Mingxi back, he handed him a small, exquisitely packaged gift box, saying it was a reward for him and it wouldn't be too late for him to open it after he returned.

……

The next morning, Zhang Junfeng came to the hotel again, intending to discuss with Leon John whether it would be possible to allow Goldman Sachs to come to Goryeo to invest in these large companies.

I was speechless when I learned that this guy had been partying until the early hours of the morning and hasn't gotten up yet. This guy looks serious, but he actually had a lot of fun!
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Junfeng called Leon John and arranged to meet in the cafe on the third floor of the hotel in an hour. Leon John on the phone agreed repeatedly, but the voice on the phone was a little flustered, mixed with a woman's exclamation.

Just when Zhang Junfeng was bored and reading the newspaper to kill time, a phone call came in. Zhang Junfeng answered the call subconsciously, and a familiar male voice came from the phone, "Brother Junfeng, our family's business... has encountered some problems. You have studied in the United States for so many years, do you know some overseas financial institutions and can help introduce them to them?"

Hearing that it was his younger brother Jin Yongzhi who called, Zhang Junfeng quickly realized that the problem this guy was talking about was most likely that the company was about to go bankrupt, right? After all, so many large companies were about to collapse, so how could their family be an exception?

It's just that I have known Jin Yongzhi for many years and he is one of his few friends. It would seem a bit unreasonable if I don't lend a hand at this time, right?
Having made up his mind, Zhang Junfeng asked Jin Yongzhi to tell his parents that he did know some senior executives of overseas financial institutions. If they had any ideas, they could come over to discuss it in detail.

After Jin Yongzhi received a positive response from Zhang Junfeng, he thanked him repeatedly and said that he would ask his parents to come over as soon as possible.

……

Time passed, and dozens of minutes later, Leon John, who was a little depressed, finally arrived. Seeing Zhang Junfeng had been waiting there for a long time, he looked a little embarrassed.

Zhang Junfeng didn't care about it. He smiled, teased the other party and quickly got to the point.

When Leon John heard Zhang Junfeng's proposal, his eyes lit up. The two sides had surprisingly consistent ideas! It turned out that Zhang Junfeng hoped that Leon John could advise Matto Walsh to take advantage of the current economic collapse of Goryeo to buy and invest in Goryeo's assets at a low price and expand their achievements in this crisis.

The general views were the same, but he was not very happy to advise Matto Walls to convey their proposal to invest in Goryeo.

What he needs is more attention from the headquarters and direct promotion. He also hopes to become a senior executive with real power in the headquarters like Mato Walls, rather than a pawn of certain people.

……

After Zhang Junfeng understood Leon John's idea, he suddenly had an idea and quickly came up with another more tempting idea!
Goldman Sachs has a partnership system. Even if Leon John can get promoted, at most he can only be one or two levels higher than he is now. In the hands of those in power in Goldman Sachs, he is just a slightly more senior subordinate.

But if he could take the opportunity to apply for a posting in Gaoli and change the original office volume into a branch, then his status as the person in charge would rise, and his influence would far exceed that of the middle-level managers at the headquarters! Moreover, Gaoli is Zhang Junfeng's base camp. As long as he helps, the construction of the branch will be extremely fast and smooth, and the cooperation between the two sides will be further strengthened, which is mutually beneficial!
……

Hearing Zhang Junfeng's new proposal, Leon John was shaken! He knew that Zhang Junfeng was right. Even though he had worked so hard to be promoted to the headquarters, he still had to act according to people's wishes, and there were many people above him who were his superiors.

On the other hand, Gao Li was much more comfortable. Once his application was approved, he would be the top person in charge and would be fully responsible for the affairs of Goldman Sachs Group. And with Zhang Junfeng's help, it would be very easy for him to achieve success or enjoy a good life in the future!
Thinking of this, Leon John couldn't help but think of the two women who had been entangled with him all night, and his heart gradually became hot!

"Zhang, let's do as you say! You must help me build the branch smoothly when the time comes!" After weighing the pros and cons, Leon John made a very sincere decision.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Zhang Junfeng also breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed a lot. As long as Goldman Sachs Group intervened, the subsequent matters would be much easier to handle. After all, the title of Wall Street financial giant is still very deterrent in Asia, especially in Korea!

------Dividing line------

Three days later, the KB Bank shareholders' meeting was held as scheduled. With the prior notice and smooth leadership of Chairman Kim Jung-tae, the resolution was quickly passed for Comet Capital (an investment company registered in the United States by Zhang Junfeng) to inject capital into KB Bank and hold 51% of the shares of KB Bank.

Although some small shareholders raised objections at the meeting, they were quickly suppressed. Now it is urgent to get a large amount of funds to make KB Bank, a nearly bankrupt financial institution, run again.

Otherwise, when the IMF intervenes in the future, the interests of these people will be even less guaranteed!
After the vote was passed, Zhang Junfeng, on behalf of Comet Capital and KB Bank Chairman Kim Jung-tae, officially signed an investment contract. The US$25.5 billion will be divided into two batches and remitted into KB Bank's public account.
