Chapter 91 is unexpected

……

Meeting Wendy Solow, the two drove to ****'s office in Los Angeles. After nearly two months of negotiations, with the box office glory of "Smart: Ghost Shadow", the caliber of **** has finally relaxed. So far, he has basically agreed to the loan agreement submitted by Guo Shouyun. Come here today to sign the contract.

"$120 million one-year loan with an interest rate of 6.03%, with principal and interest repaid at maturity. … Mr. Guo, if you have no comments, please sign at the back!"

After taking the loan contract, carefully examining a few key data, and feeling that there was no problem, Guo Shouyun signed his name at the back.

"Mr. Guo, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you!"

After the contract was signed, Mark Damone, the director of the credit department of the **** Los Angeles branch, stretched out his right hand with a smile.

"In the same way, it is my honor to cooperate with ****!"

After a brief handshake, Mark Dimon made a gesture of please.

Guo Shouyun nodded, and followed the other party to a luxuriously and elegantly decorated reception room. After entering the door, when he saw a middle-aged man sitting in a gray suit, Guo Shouyun's face changed slightly, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

He originally thought that Mark Dimon just wanted to talk to him about the second ABS asset-backed securities issuance, after all, the other party had revealed the tone before. never thought that things would turn in the end that he didn't want to see.

"Both of you are elites in the business world, so you don't need me to introduce you!" Mark Dimon laughed.

"Of course. I'm a loyal reader of Mr. Guo, and I've admired him for a long time!" As he spoke, a middle-aged man in a blue suit walked over with a smile on his face and took the initiative to stretch out his right hand towards Guo Shouyun, "Mr. Guo, it's a pleasure to meet you, I like the "National Treasure" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" series you wrote very much. ”

"It's my honor to be liked by Mr. Jilin!"

Although Guo Shouyun had a smile on his face, he was highly vigilant in his heart. He never thought that Jeffrey Jilin, Enron's chief operating officer and successor to the next president and CEO, had come to Los Angeles and then arranged the current situation through Mark Dimon to talk to himself!

You must know that Phoenix has now shorted Enron with $3.12 billion, which can be called the sworn enemy of Enron's board of directors and management, and it is the largest one.

“… Mr. Dimon, since Mr. Jilin is in your company, you should have informed me earlier, wouldn't it be rude to meet me suddenly and I was unprepared for it!" After Guo Shouyun finished speaking, he glanced at Mark Dimon next to him lightly.

The latter's eyes changed, and there was a bitter look on his face, this time he was indeed suspected of overstepping his bounds, but this was an arrangement from the head office, and he couldn't help it.

"Mr. Guo, I specially explained to Mr. Dimon and asked him not to tell you yet. So, if Mr. Guo wants to blame, blame me!" Jeffrey Jilin preemptively said before Mark Dimon spoke.

"You will be a man when you arrive!" Thinking of this, Guo Shouyun smiled and said: "Mr. Jilin misunderstood, I didn't mean to be angry. It's just that it happened suddenly, and I was unprepared, so I was inevitably a little panicked!"

"Haha, if you want to say panic, I'm panicked. Mr. Guo is my idol. … Come, please be seated!"

"The two of you talk slowly, just call me if you have anything!"

After Jeffrey Jilin nodded, Mark Dimon turned and walked out the door.

"Mr. Guo is not shallow, the assistants around him are so beautiful!"

After the two sat down, Jeffrey Jilin glanced at Wendy Solow who was sitting next to Guo Shouyun and smiled.

Guo Shouyun smiled, he could guess Jeffrey Jilin's hidden meaning from the other party's words and expressions. However, he didn't give Wendy the money he wanted.

"Compared to her pretty face, in fact, the most outstanding thing about my secretary is her ability. ”

"Really, it looks like I'm judging people by their looks!"

A hint of gloom flashed in Jeffrey Jilin's eyes, obviously Guo Shouyun's refusal made him feel a little unhappy in his heart. However, this also confirms the importance of this female assistant in the other party's heart, which makes Jeffrey Jilin have a little more thoughts in his heart.

"I heard Mark Dimon say before, Mr. Guo asked **** for another loan?"

"I didn't expect Mr. Jilin to be so well-informed!"

"Hehe, after working hard in the mall for so many years, there are always some connections!" Jeffrey Jilin smiled and looked at Guo Shouyun on the other side.

This sentence is really profound, Guo Shouyun's pupils shrank, and after a little thought, he said: "If I can also have a connection like Mr. Jilin, I'm afraid this loan won't have to be wasted for so long." ”

"With Mr. Guo's ability, at my age, he will definitely be better than me in terms of connections and strength. After a pause, Jeffrey Jilin changed his words, "If Mr. Guo seeks a loan, Enron and I are willing to vouch for you!"

"Oh? really?"

"Of course, but there is a small premise before that. ”

"What premise?" Guo Shouyun's eyes moved slightly.

"Mr. Guo has to buy enough Enron shares in the secondary market, and then use those shares as collateral, plus my guarantee, to guarantee that Mr. Guo can get loans from major banks that are equal to the value of the shares! Moreover, with Enron's position in the business world and the stock market, he can also ensure that Mr. Guo gets a low enough interest rate on the loan, which is the best of both worlds. With a smile on his face, Jeffrey Jilin stared at the young man in front of him and said in a serious tone.

Guo Shouyun nodded slightly, "It is indeed a good condition! However, if I do what Mr. Lin said, how many shares of Enron can I get?"

"5,000,000 shares!"

"5 million shares?" Guo Shouyun knew in his heart. That's Enron's strategy. Five million shares would be $425 million at Enron's current price of $85 per share. If Guo Shouyun really invests, there is no doubt that his funds for shorting Enron will also be exhausted. But it's a pity that the current Enron is a broken car that leaks everywhere, maybe half a year, maybe a month, maybe the next second, it will fall apart. Knowing this, Guo Shouyun stepped into it unless he was stupid.

"Mr. Jilin, there are too many funds involved in this, I need time to think about it!" After pondering for a while, Guo Shouyun raised his head and said.

"Of course, but when can Mr. Guo think about it?" Jeffrey Jilin smiled after realizing that his tone was too urgent, "5 million shares is not a small amount, and we also need time to negotiate with the board of directors to admit Mr. Guo in." ”

"Half a month!"

"Half a month?" Jeffrey Jilin frowned.

"Mr. Jilin, I'm not a big business, and an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars always needs to be considered before making a decision!

After nodding slightly, Jeffrey Jilin glanced at him and said in a subtle tone, "Mr. Guo won't just shirk, right?"

"Of course not! Actually, I still attach great importance to the opportunity to invest in Enron!" Guo Shouyun smiled at Jeffrey Jilin's eyes with deep eyes.

The two clashed in the air, and neither showed weakness. After half a ring, Jeffrey Jilin nodded.

"Then I'm looking forward to Mr. Guo's good news!"

"I'm also looking forward to working with Mr. Jilin!"

After a brief chat, Guo Shouyun offered his farewell. And Jeffrey Jilin, whose goal is preliminarily achieved, did not stop it.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the black Mercedes Benz go away, the expressionless Jeffrey Jilin squinted slightly. After a while, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket, simply pressed a few buttons, and called.

"How?"

An old voice came through the microphone.

"I didn't explicitly refuse, and I just said that it would take half a month to think about it!"

"Do you think he's stalling for time, or is he planning something else?"

"It's not clear yet. However, since the other party is willing to leverage $3 billion to short Enron, he must know something. I'm afraid that our initial strategy will not impress him! Moreover, after initial contact, this nineteen-year-old billionaire does not have the wrists, heart, and city government that he should have at his age!"

"Looks like you're thinking highly of him!"

"Hmm!"

"Sure enough, those who succeed have their reasons for success! And I would like to meet him when you say that!" said the old voice with interest.

"What about Enron?" Jeffrey Jilin frowned.

"Jeffrey, don't worry so much. Enron has a problem, but we are still a giant with a market value of more than $80 billion, and it is not so easy to fall! As for that little guy, didn't he say that he wanted half a month, then we will give him half a month. ”

"What if he doesn't give in half a month?"

"Don't we have some interesting evidence in our hands, show him when the time comes, and I'm sure he'll understand what to do!"

"I see!"
