A decent funeral.

Most of them feel like they have been inherited by a mere $500

Because of the humiliation, few of Paul Getty's relatives were not visible at the funeral of Paul Getty Sr., and even if they did, they were all young third- and fourth-generation family members.

It was as if the glory and accomplishments had been brought into the coffin together, and people didn't care too much, they just watched the jokes, and paid a little attention to the Getty family members, talking about it as a joke, about how failed the parent was.

It's the truth.

Han Chudong has no children and grandchildren, but he doesn't want to wait until he lies in the coffin, and the funeral is filled with the same stealing music.

An old man came up to Han Chudong's side and said with a smile on his face: "Don't be so serious, when you reach our age, you will know that the funeral is more like a social occasion for the elderly, and everyone will have such a day, right?"

Looking sideways, I realized that I didn't know each other.

Out of politeness, Han Chudong still said: "I rarely attend funerals, such an atmosphere makes me quite uncomfortable, and I think of death." ”

"You're only a little one, and if nothing else, you'll live fifty, or even sixty years, and I'm seventy-seven, and the earth is already here. As he spoke, the old white man placed his hand across his head.

The watch belongs to the same model as the one in Han Chudong's hand, Patek Philippe 2499 platinum model, Han Chudong's hand was bought directly from Patek Philippe, spending 400,000 US dollars, and only two pieces were produced at the beginning, but I didn't expect to see another piece by accident, which shows that this old man should also be very rich.

The age is there, and there is no way to say anything comforting, Han Chudong had no choice but to say: "Life is not like this, generation after generation, I envy you for experiencing so many famous events in history." ”

"That's true, but it's a pity that the good old days are behind us, and by the way, my name is Bear Fold, the CEO of Lehman Brothers, and I own some shares in Storm Electric. ”

"I know that Lehman Brothers is very big and that I can continue to work together when I have the opportunity. Han Chudong pretended to understand, but he is indeed no stranger to Lehman Brothers, in addition to the fact that they became the sixth largest shareholder when Baofeng Electric went public in November last year, they also invested more than 10 million US dollars in Mason Private Equity Fund.

It seems that this is the case, and he has not paid attention to the smooth sailing Mason private equity fund for a while, so he does not know whether Lehman Brothers continues to invest in Mason private equity.

Speaking of the increasingly large Mason private placement, it is too worry-free, every time after raising funds, the only thing Han Chudong does is to tell his subordinates which company's shares to buy, and unknowingly the shareholding in Walmart is as high as 16%, and has also become one of the three major shareholders of Boeing and KFC, with a share of not less than 10%.

The regret is that a large part of the assets belong to investors, and the assets belonging to Han Chudong account for only a small part, but with the scale of private equity funds growing, a lot of money can be received every year for management fees alone, and the performance is there, and it is basically no problem to raise three or five billion US dollars at one time.

The CEO of Lehman Brothers, named Bear Ford, stood beside Han Chudong and continued: "Actually, there is really an opportunity for cooperation in the near future, I heard the news that you plan to list Rainbow Beauty Group? ”

"No, no, no, it's unfounded fake news, and I still don't have any idea of going public anytime soon, and they're all financially healthy. ”

"So why is there news that Rainbow Beauty is going to make a big move in the near future? ”

"Mr. Forder, maybe they're talking about my plan to issue some corporate bonds, but you're really well informed, and I just discussed it with the people in the Inter-American Investment Bank department, and you know about it. ”

Bear Ford was obviously a little disappointed, but still said: "Lehman Brothers helped Tokyo enter the US and European dollar markets, also issued the first US dollar bonds for Malaysia and the Philippines, and even underwrote the first US dollar bonds for the Asian Development Bank, and still maintains close ties with these official organizations, if you want to issue corporate bonds, you must be right to come to us, in fact, it is very likely that we Lehman Brothers alone will have the hope of eating all your bonds, who can not believe in your credibility?"

"Coincidentally, the Bank of America also told me that if you can give me a lower offer, maybe you can talk carefully, I plan to raise about $500 million, and when I want to go public one day, I can also discuss it carefully. ”

Han Chudong's total debt is only 13.7 percent of his total assets.

At the beginning, I liked to borrow money for development, and then the capital flow has been relatively abundant, just to repay the old debts with new debts, and then borrowed from Citibank, Bank of America and Swiss Banking Group, compared to that interest, the profit is undoubtedly larger, and it is definitely earned.

Under this debt ratio, he and his company's reputation are all amazingly good, and the Bank of America Group is not afraid that he will not be able to pay him, so it is naturally willing to lend him a huge amount of money, so the cooperation with Lehman Brothers is dispensable, so it is not very careful.

I don't think it's right to have a reason to cooperate, but I can't offend anyone, with a smile on my face and a very peaceful tone.

Bear Forder, who also wants to be a creditor of the Mason Associates Group, has no doubt that Bank of America can make the decision to eat $500 million in corporate bonds, and after a short period of consideration, he said: "Please accept my business card, and wait for tonight or tomorrow, how about having a meal together?" I need to wait until I have discussed with the board of directors before I can tell you what the reserve price is, and it will be lower than Bank of America anyway, they have always been dark, so they have developed so fast. ”

Even splashing dirty water on competitors has been done, which made Han Chudong look forward to it a little, nodded with a smile, accepted the business card and handed over his own business card, and replied: "There are arrangements for tonight, there should be nothing to do tomorrow night, and then we can make an appointment to meet somewhere else, maybe you can go to the restaurant I just bought, in Beverly Hills, the name is Spago, two Michelin stars." ”

"Haha, your business is really extensive, I'm free at any time, see when you have time, it's okay!"

Is the CEO of Lehman Brothers really that idle?

Definitely not.

Because it was early winter in Han, Bell Forde was temporarily prepared to stay in Los Angeles for an extra day or two......
