So, Li Guangyao called the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with a sigh, and then the call was transferred to the Presidential Palace.
"Borrow money? 50 billion dollars?"
After hearing this, President Cotton directly refused.
What a joke! My country is in a mess. If I lend it to you, then should I lend it to others? You can’t ask me to do that! In addition, such a large amount of funds needs to be signed by the Ministry of Finance or the Congress on Capitol Hill. I don’t even have the independent authority to do that.
Besides, Xingzhou is nothing!
The United States can do without a licker like you, but you can only lick the United States.
President Cotton's voice was full of apology: "I'm sorry, Lee, although I want to help, I really can't."
Li Guangyao: “…………”
Big disappointment!
After all the hassle, there are only 10 hours left out of 5 hours.
"How to do?"
The whole family was completely silent.
Everything has been tried.
“Do we really want to embezzle public funds from the government and state-owned enterprises?”
Li Guangyao looked ugly!
He was praised by the people as the father of the nation. Was he going to be tainted by such a stain in his old age?
Just then, ding ding ding~~~~
The phone on Li Guangyao's desk rang.
"Mr. Li!"
A strange voice came over.
"you are?"
"My name is Ma Zhichao, I think Mr. Li should know me."
"Ma Zhichao?!"
Li Guangyao suddenly became serious and asked coldly, "Why are you calling?"
Ma Zhichao laughed: "Mr. Li, don't be so vigilant. I admire you very much!"
(Tian Yangsheng: Yes, I admire him very much. I even kidnapped his daughter.)
Li Guangyao: "I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood to talk to you..."
Ma Zhichao: "Don't worry... I heard you really need money!"
Li Guangyao paused for a moment before hanging up the phone.
He felt the threat from Ma Zhichao!
Ma Zhichao: "I have 30 billion US dollars... I wonder if Mr. Li is willing to make a deal!"
Li Guangyao really wanted to say: No!
but……
"Okay! I wonder if Mr. Ma is free to come to my house and sit down!"
"No, you come sit here with me!"
After Ma Zhichao said this, he hung up the phone.
right now,
The initiative is in my hands, Ma Zhichao!
I, Ma Zhichao, have the final say in everything!
……
20 minutes later,
Li Guangyao was forced to bring his bodyguard, secretary, and second son to the hotel where Ma Zhichao was.
top floor,
Then I met Ma Zhichao!
At first sight, Li Guangyao felt Ma Zhichao's unbridled and ostentatious temperament, which made him very uncomfortable.
He was already old, and felt that Ma Zhichao's edge was too strong, making him feel as if he were cut by a knife.
"Hahaha~~~ Mr. Li! I didn't expect that you would give me this face in the end!"
Ma Zhichao was extremely enthusiastic and gave Li Guangyao a big hug.
No one dares not give face to me, Ma Zhichao!
----------
ps: Second update! (There are always readers who say I lack updates, so I add this one every day.)
Chapter 389 The second kidnapping operation was successful, the United States
"Mr. Li, I know you don't like seeing me!"
Ma Zhichao showed his sharp edge without any disguise or hypocrisy, and his sharp words made Li Guangyao very embarrassed.
Be confident and speak with confidence!
Li Guangyao has been active in the political arena and on the world stage for many years, and has seen all kinds of rebellious people. However, even if someone disliked him, they would be polite to him and dare not lose their temper. This was the first time he had seen such a disgusting person as Ma Zhichao.
But no matter how much he hated Ma Zhichao, he could only keep it to himself.
He apologized, "I'm sorry, I have long admired Mr. Ma Zhichao, but we have different positions, so there are some things I can't do. I don't know the purpose of Mr. Ma's visit to Singapore, but I can only try to reduce contact with people in the north."
Ma Zhichao chuckled: "It doesn't matter, business is business. It just so happens that I am very optimistic about Xingzhou and plan to invest in it."
As these words were spoken, the tense atmosphere between the two sides finally eased.
Then sit down and start negotiating a deal.
"I have a TV station in Hong Kong Island. I believe Mr. Li knows this. So I have always been very interested in TV stations. So, I want to acquire Sin Chew TV!"
Ma Zhichao has figured it out. If he wants to gain a foothold in Singapore and ascend to the highest throne of power, he must protect the reputation of the Lee family.
Public opinion is Ma Zhichao's primary consideration.
Li Guangyao's face changed when he heard this: "No, I won't sell the TV station's shares!"
Although he didn't know that Ma Zhichao's goal was to suppress the reputation of the Li family, he took into consideration that he had to follow in the footsteps of Father Mi, so people with "Chinese" identities like Ma Zhichao should try not to contact the media.
"So we can't come to an agreement?"
Ma Zhichao spread his hands and said, "Forget it, Asi, get the guest out!"
Li Guangyao: “…………”
Li Yang and others: “…………”
His face immediately turned dark.
How rude!
So crazy!
However, now that Li Guangyao thought of his daughter, the only person who could get so much money in a short time was Ma Zhichao.
So Li Guangyao hesitated for a moment and chose to give in: "It's not impossible to buy the TV station, but I can't sell it all to you."
Ma Zhichao said domineeringly: "Okay, but I want to be in charge of the TV station! After all, I don't want to be told what to do by others!"
If you take over, you will be the largest shareholder and chairman of the board of directors.
Li Guangyao hesitated: "Okay, but you have to make some restrictions. You can't report many things!"
Ma Zhichao frowned: "Tell me more about it."
Li Guangyao: "We cannot report bad things about the United States, we cannot actively promote 'Chinese', and we must have some restraint in terms of Chinese culture..."
These conditions are also the policies that Li Guangyao has always implemented.
Bang~~~
Ma Zhichao stood up and cursed: "What a crap, asking for so many things, I don't want this TV station anymore... Asi, get out!"
Li Guangyao: “…………”
Li Yang and others: “…………”
Seeing Ma Zhichao putting on his clothes and preparing to leave while cursing, Li Guangyao finally became anxious.
At this time, there were less than 4 hours left.
Li Guangyao: "Mr. Ma, please wait a moment, we can talk about it in more detail..."
In the following period of time, the two sides held formal negotiations.
At last,
Because time was tight and it also took time to complete the formalities, the negotiations were very hasty.
Finally, the general framework was determined.
In terms of TV stations, Ma Zhichao spent 9 million US dollars to acquire 5% of the shares of Sin Chew Press Holdings (covering CCTV + 35 newspapers), becoming the largest shareholder and able to become the chairman of the board. In terms of power, Li Guangyao made the biggest concession: Ma Zhichao has the greatest power, except for the following: he cannot report negative news about the United States, and cannot report about China unless approved, and Li Guangyao no longer restricts Chinese culture.
In addition, there is Temasek, the largest state-owned enterprise in Singapore. Ma Zhichao also bought back 5% of the shares of the Lee family. Why can the shares of state-owned enterprises be acquired by private individuals? The answer is the system of Singapore. Otherwise, where did the Lee family get their assets? Most of them are shares of state-owned enterprises.
The total market value of Temasek still exceeds 700 billion US dollars even in the current financial crisis and stock market downturn. 5% is already 35 billion US dollars, and Ma Zhichao took advantage of the situation and bought it at a 7% discount, which is 24.5 billion US dollars.
All in all, including some other small things, Ma Zhichao paid 36 billion US dollars, and the actual value is about 50 billion US dollars.
However, money is not the point. After all, I, Sir Ma, have plenty of money, it’s just that it has not been laundered yet.
The point is that Ma Zhichao finally has a say in Sin Chew!
Next, I communicated with the TV station and Temasek shareholders to introduce Ma Zhichao...
Keep everything simple,
In the 9th hour, 36 billion US dollars (from clean sources, loans from HSBC and Standard Chartered) were transferred to Li Guangyao's account. Then in the 10th hour, after a call from a salesperson from the Giant God Group, Li Guangyao transferred the money to the Giant God Group's account.
After sliding around, it ended up in Ma Zhichao's hands again.
……
Li Guangyao got in the car and left Ma Zhichao's hotel.
in the car,
The atmosphere is heavy.
Li Guangyao frowned: "This Ma Zhichao is a big trouble!"
The second son, Li Yang, comforted him: "Dad, don't worry, as long as our Li family is here, this Ma Zhichao won't be able to cause any trouble!"
……
at this time,
Here in the United States,
Hexagon Building,
After 10 hours, it’s finally here.
According to the agreement of the Giant God Group, a total of more than 240 transfers, with a total amount of more than 800 billion US dollars, will be transferred from the "hands" of each "hostage" to the designated account.
The United States has assembled many banking experts, intelligence agents, computer experts, and senior executives from banks of various countries, totaling more than 2000 people.
In addition, the United States has also used its hegemony to notify all major banks around the world that they must fully cooperate with the United States in reporting the flow of funds in a timely manner during this period, and at the same time, lock cash withdrawals of more than 10 US dollars within a specific time period and cooperate in arresting cash withdrawal personnel. If it were other countries, major banks around the world would definitely ignore it, and only the United States has the strength to do so.
Of course, places like China and East China will definitely pretend to go along with it and will not really take action.
"This time, we must not let the Giant God Group get away!"
"800 billion US dollars, all the capital flows will be under our control, let's see how they run!"
