On the morning of March 3, Xie Jing returned to Shanghai and boarded the yacht "East China Sea Knight".
In the afternoon, Xie Jing met Huang Hai and other three people at a hotel near the yacht dock, and the two sides held an eight-hour meeting.
The next morning, Xie Jing left Shanghai with a haggard look.
Zhu Tong did not participate in this negotiation. Originally, Xie Jing strongly requested that he attend, and Huang Hai also had the same intention. However, the risk of participating in such a thing was too great, and Zhu Tong did not even want to hear it. He just asked Huang Hai, no matter what the outcome,
We must ensure that Xie Jing can leave smoothly.
In order to express his gratitude, Huang Hai invited Zhu Tong to dinner at a nearby hotel in the evening; he was basically satisfied with the result and got most of what he wanted; the Xie family had basically gotten rid of the most serious criminal problems.
The current point of disagreement is how much of the Coastal Co-Prosperity Fund should be handed over to the state treasury, which is related to the Xie family's future development in China and the security of investment projects outside the fund.
During the dinner, Zhu Tong drank a lot of wine. Huang Hai was in a good mood and sent his two men away to drink with Zhu Tong.
Both of them soon became a little tipsy. Huang Hai said: "Ye'er has applied to be transferred back to the financial working group, but the chief vetoed it."
Zhu Tong was stunned for a moment when he heard the news.
Zhu Tong rejected Ye Er's two appointments, which surprised Huang Hai. He vaguely felt that there seemed to be a deeper reason for Zhu Tong's handling of the relationship with Ye Er.
Huang Hai said again: "You are a fool. There is no fool more stupid than you in the world."
Zhu Tong shook his head and said, "With you here, I am not the stupidest fool."
The two people laughed. They were both drunk that night.
As the night progressed, a small yacht cut through the waves and quietly sailed out of the marina.
An hour later, the lights on Shanghai Beach had turned into a faint band of light on the sea level, and the stars were shining brightly in the clear blue sky.
The yacht is parked and rippling among the waves of the sea.
On the highest deck, Zhu Tong meditated facing the stars.
On the next floor, Qin Keqiang and Yang Hui parked their yacht and began to practice with their eyes closed.
This yacht once belonged to Lan Zhanjiang, and was later given to Qin Keqiang by him. Now, it almost belongs to Zhu Tong.
It seemed that something magical was calling him. As long as there was no heavy wind or rain, Zhu Tong would sit on it and go to the sea to practice the pure warmth on his chest every night.
Few people know that after Zhu Tong stayed on the "East China Sea Knight", he almost never rested in his room.
At nine o'clock in the evening on March 6, three guests from Japan arrived at Pudong Airport in a very low-key manner.
No one came to greet them, so they got into a taxi and quickly disappeared into the crowded Shanghai stalls.
Three hours later, at 12:10, Zhu Tong was waiting impatiently in the Taishi Mansion, the top private room in Manjiang Huayu, when Matsui Heishi opened the door and walked in.
Matsui Heishi did not bow, and the two shook hands and sat down separately.
Zhu Tong spoke first, greeting Matsui Heizhi for his hard work and welcoming him to Shanghai again.
Matsui Heizhi was not polite, and after Zhu Tong finished being polite, he immediately said: "Miss Xuemei is here too. She is outside. She hopes to meet sir alone later."
"Why is it so mysterious?" Zhu Tong asked strangely.
Matsui Heizhi smiled and said: "Miss Xuemei is here to give Mr. Li a surprise."
"I like surprises." Zhu Tong opened the door, and Jingchi Xuemei was standing outside.
She smiled like a lady, took two steps forward, held Zhu Tong's shoulders, stood on tiptoes and kissed the side of his face gently, and whispered: "Sir, I have been thinking of you."
Zhu Tong half-carried Jingchi Xuemei into the Taishi Mansion and asked her to sit down: "Miss Xuemei, you are getting more and more beautiful."
Jingchi Xuemei is more beautiful than last time, her complexion is healthier, and she looks more energetic. In the past, Jingchi Xuemei's skin lacked color and always looked a bit sad, but now, it looks like a bouquet of spring flowers.
Matsui Heishi spoke at the right time: "I am now the vice chairman of the board of directors of United Shipping. Miss Xuemi acquired the shares held by Lord Hamilton and is also a member of the board of directors of United Shipping. Together, we hold shares of United Shipping
Twenty-eight percent of the shares. Mr. Li will also get good news. Miss Xuemei’s wife, Mrs. Wilson, has obtained eight percent of the shares of United Shipping."
Zhu Tong began to settle accounts in his mind, and things seemed to be back to the starting point. After a dazzling round of capital integration, if Lan Zhanjiang's 15% stake was included, Smith seemed to have lost his interest in United Shipbuilding.
Absolute controlling interest.
But why is Smith willing for things to evolve to this point? Is he suddenly short of money?
Price, there is a price factor in it, but it is not entirely due to price. Xuemi Ichi must have purchased Lord Hamilton's shares at a high price, and the price for Mrs. Wilson's shares will not be cheap.
"Why did Miss Xuemei do this?" Zhu Tong asked gratefully.
"Because Xuemei believes in Mr. Li, I think that even if the price is doubled to acquire Lord Hamilton's shares, the return will be more generous in the future. Lord Hamilton is very dissatisfied that Smith has not been able to enter formal negotiations for so long.
He no longer believes in Smith's ability." Jingchi Xuemei smiled playfully and got closer to Zhu Tong; "Besides, I don't like to see Mr. being bullied."
"But why did Smith sell his shares to Mrs. Wilson?"
"Mrs. Wilson's shares are relatively cheap and she will not have any dealings with Mr. Smith. Those shares were transferred to Mrs. Wilson by U.S. Senator Mr. Lehman as a thank you for Mrs. Wilson's generous and selfless donation to the Lehman Foundation.
"Zhu Tong felt that this reason seemed a bit far-fetched.
Mr. Lehman once supported Tian Xuyang. It is said that he was hostile to Fuhua Shipbuilding and would not make such a big change without reason.
Seeing Zhu Tong's hesitation, Jingchi Xuemei chuckled and said to Matsui Heizhi, "It's better for Mr. Heizhi to explain to Mr. Li. Mr. Smith, you don't know about Lord Hamilton yet."
"Miss Xuemei just completed the transaction with Lord Hamilton yesterday. For this transaction, Lord Hamilton will pay a large amount of liquidated damages."
Zhu Tong then came back to his senses. Xuemei Jingchi had started planning this deal at least a month ago. In order not to be suspected by Smith, she waited until Mrs. Wilson completed the transaction with Lehman before she started planning it.
Private negotiations with Lord Hamilton.
But it's still wrong. Have all those capital bosses suddenly turned into Lei Feng?
"Tomorrow morning, I will go to see Smith. The deal between Ichi Xuemi and Lord Hamilton is still confidential. When the gentleman decides to play a card, Miss Xuemi will appear."
"Miss Xuemei, will there be any legal problems?" Zhu Tong was still a little worried. He knew that Smith was a senior lawyer and a legal expert in this field.
"The registered place of United Ships is Crocodile Island, and the air there is full of the flavor of freedom. My Ping Zhijun has just spent a wonderful seven-day vacation on Crocodile Island, and then came to Shanghai." Jing Chi's snowy complexion
This proves that their week at Crocodile Island must have been difficult.
"However, I cannot give United Shipping more than 40% of the shares. I don't have that right."
"It just so happens that we don't have much cash left. Mr. Ping Zhi only has 200 million US dollars in hand. My money has been transferred to Lord Hamilton's account."
According to the plan, in addition to investing in technology and equipment, both parties also invested in construction funds. Ichi Xuemei made it very clear that it was not unacceptable for Helian Shipbuilding to obtain 40% of the shares. Correspondingly, Helian Shipbuilding was interested in Fuhua
The cash investment in shipbuilding must also be reduced. This is something Smith has always insisted on.
Matsui Heishi also said: "If possible, we hope to obtain about 45% of the shares. Specific terms can be negotiated."
"I'll try my best, but it's difficult." The red line drawn by Wang Xiang frame is that foreign shares cannot exceed 40%. Zhu Tong didn't quite understand it at first, but after this period of experience, he has understood the meaning of this red line.
.
Although the shares within the Xuyang Group have been consolidated and the shareholders have been scrutinized more carefully, no one can guarantee that the backgrounds of those shareholders are completely reliable. The 10% buffer left is a firewall reserved for Fuhua Shipbuilding
.
As a result, the financial pressure on Xuyang Group will suddenly increase; it is simply impossible for Chen Yiyi to raise such a large amount of money to fill the resulting hole. Huayi's Chinese Commercial Bank may want to increase its investment...
The most indispensable thing in Shanghai is money, and there are always ways to solve internal problems. Zhu Tong rarely feels moved. At this moment, he really doesn’t know what to say. Jingchi Xuemei has provided so much help. This deep feeling,
It cannot be compensated by saying thank you.
At 1:30 in the morning, the yacht "East China Sea Knight" suddenly left the busy yacht pier.
In the top private room on the fourth floor, the atmosphere in Zhu Tong's bedroom became increasingly awkward.
Jingchi Xuemei sat on the bed with her head lowered, her face flushed, and she fiddled with her slender fingers, as if waiting for God's judgment.
Just a minute ago, Ichixuemi walked into this room and said softly: "My father once said to me that life is a poem, and it cannot be changed once it is written. Youth and passion are the most beautiful lines of poetry in life.
When you are burned by love, don't be mocked by gold. I may have to accept a loveless marriage, sir... Xuemei only wants you for three days."
"Xue Mei, you will regret it." Zhu Tong seemed at a loss. No girl had ever used such behavior to issue an invitation.
"Sir, I'm more afraid of regrets." Jingchi Xuemei threw herself into his arms and said in a low voice: "Sir, our family is originally Han Chinese, so I should be called Zhao Xuemei."
Jingchi Xuemei tore open her coat, took out a warm and white jade plaque from under her neck, and held it in front of Zhu Tong's eyes.
The jade medal is oval in shape, with a five-clawed flying dragon on the front, with flame cloud patterns on its feet, a palace lantern in its mouth, and its chest held high, lurking among the clouds. Below it is a wavy water pattern with five plum blossoms floating on it.
On the upper part of the back are engraved seven flower-shaped seal characters: Longlou, a little jade lamp, bright.
Below is a embossed seal character with a dragon circling the clouds saying: Zhao.
