Li Jin's tone was very calm, but it contained great confidence.
Huo Zhenzhou's expression was solemn.
I don't know how long it took before Huo Zhenzhou said, "How much money do you need from the Huo family?"
"At least 5 billion, no upper limit."
Li Jin's words made Huo Zhenzhou's brows tremble again.
According to what Li Jin said before, he, together with Pan Shizi and Xiao Wanghou, have raised a minimum of 20 billion. Even if he contributes a minimum of 5 billion, he already has 25 billion.
What did 25 billion mean in 2001?
This means that it is possible to fight a local economic war in some relatively poor small countries.
Even in later generations, some Internet companies are often valued at tens of billions or hundreds of billions, but true insiders know that the water content of such valuations is simply more exaggerated than a sponge that is full of water.
It's just a gimmick to deceive investors and stockholders.
Besides, this 25 billion is real cash.
How many people or companies can afford such an exaggerated amount of cash today?
"I can offer 7 billion." Huo Zhenzhou gritted his teeth and said with a cold light in his eyes.
Although the port city's economy is still booming, it has shown signs of weakness.
Without him, the port city is too small and does not have any resources for sustainable development.
This is why the four major families headed by the Huo family are focused on developing in the mainland. Even before the return, the major families had already distributed their industries in Southeast Asia, Nanyang and other regions.
But the port city is still the core foundation. Once the development potential of the port city is exhausted, the Huo family will face an extremely embarrassing situation.
Such signs have already begun to appear.
Faced with such an opportunity, Huo Zhenzhou chose to take a gamble.
This 7 billion in cash is already the largest amount of funds that the Huo family can come up with without affecting the existing industry.
After all, the Huo family has not yet recovered from the severe damage caused by the Hong Kong stock market crash. If Li Jin had not helped the Huo family recover during the crisis of the Internet bubble, I am afraid that they would not even be able to come up with 7 billion now.
To put it bluntly, even if they fail, the backbone of the Huo family is still there.
"Uncle Huo, we will win this battle."
Li Jin said to Huo Zhenzhou sincerely.
The total value of the Huo family's assets must have reached close to 100 billion, but Li Jin understood that total assets are total assets, and cash is cash.
Just like it is impossible for Li Jin to sell Jinqing Company to raise funds, it is impossible for the Huo family to sell high-quality core industries for money.
Therefore, the 7 billion has exceeded Li Jin's estimate.
This kind of trust cannot be achieved by ordinary family members, let alone the Li Jin and Huo families who are not related by blood.
Huo Zhenzhou smiled openly and said, "I have confidence in you. As long as you think you can do something, I have no reason not to seize such an opportunity."
"Uncle Huo, there is one more thing."
Li Jin told Huo Zhenzhou that Xu Heng controlled Hu Pingping.
"Xu Heng's plan is deeper and more detailed than I thought. I don't know how many backhands he has hidden in the dark."
Huo Zhenzhou became serious again after hearing this and asked, "Do we need the Huo family to step forward?"
Li Jin shook his head and said: "The situation in Hong Kong City is not stable now. Although the Xu family is not among the four giants, its strength is not inferior to the four giants. If it affects the whole body, what we have to do now is the upcoming big event.
It’s not advisable to grow branches outside the knot.”
Hearing this, Huo Zhenzhou nodded approvingly and said, "Ajin, you are more mature."
The relationship between the four wealthy families in Hong Kong City is very deep. In many cases, we cannot simply look at it with the simple logical relationship that you are an enemy and he is a friend.
Although the Xu family is not among the four wealthy families, it is an extremely special one.
As Li Jin said, the Xu family is actually not weaker than any of the four wealthy families.
Even without the burden of the so-called wealthy family, the Xu family can do many things more conveniently than the four wealthy families.
For example, the previous stock market crash caused huge damage to the Hong Kong city's economy. From the people to the Hong Kong government, almost all of them pinned their hopes on the four wealthy families, but they had no requirements for the Xu family.
The Huo family can take some actions against Xu Heng, but those actions will definitely be regarded as being done against the entire Xu family. The Xu family is not just a fool, and they may not give in to the Huo family when the time comes.
The Huo family is naturally not afraid of the Xu family, but the situation in Hong Kong City is complicated and affects the whole body. In this troubled time, it is obviously better to do less than to do more.
These are the principles of the Huo family.
For Li Jin, there is another very important point, that is, the Huo family is the Huo family, and he is himself. All this is the grudge between himself and Xu Heng. Looking at Xu Heng's layout, it is obvious that he has the intention to kill him.
Under such a premise, unless the Huo family completely tramples Xu Heng to death, Xu Heng will not give up because of concerns about the Huo family.
Otherwise, Xu Heng, who knew about his relationship with the Huo family, would not have targeted him so obviously from the beginning.
And Xu Heng is the only next-generation successor of the Xu family, so unless the Huo family is prepared to fight to the death with the Xu family, it is impossible to completely trample Xu Heng to death.
"I need Uncle Huo to keep an eye on Xu Heng, especially in terms of the Xu family's or Xu Heng's financial operations," Li Jin said.
Huo Zhenzhou frowned slightly and asked, "Are you worried that Xu Heng will see through your plan?"
I'm afraid I've already seen through it.
Li Jin sighed secretly in his heart.
When he learned that someone was deliberately targeting him in the U.S. stock market, Li Jin's first suspect was Xu Heng.
If you have the motivation, you also have the ability.
Xu Heng is indeed the most difficult enemy Li Jin has encountered so far.
If it's not Xu Heng, then it's Wall Street capital, but this possibility is too low.
The only person on Wall Street who has dealt with Li Jin is Quantum Fund, but the other party should be busy cutting leeks in the European financial market now and cannot keep an eye on him all the time.
So Li Jin prefers Xu Heng.
"Just in case." Li Jin said.
"In Hong Kong City, I am beyond my reach, especially regarding the flow of funds. Without Uncle Huo's personal intervention, I would not be able to monitor Xu Heng. Therefore, I can only ask Uncle Huo for this more important matter."
Huo Zhenzhou nodded solemnly and said: "Okay, I promise you this matter. I will inform you as soon as there is news."
Li Jin said with relief: "With Uncle Huo's promise, I can rest assured."
"In this matter, I hope that I can keep Huanyu by my side, and I can take the opportunity to take him to experience the dangers of top capital games in advance."
Li Jin's suggestion made Huo Zhenzhou laugh.
Within the family, the thing that worries him the most is Huo Huanyu, who has always failed to live up to expectations.
However, since he followed Li Jin, he has seen Huo Huanyu's growth, and he has become more and more impressed by the old man's decision to insist on letting Huo Huanyu stay with Li Jin.
Therefore, he was naturally extremely pleased with Li Jin's request.
