Chapter 31: The Two Worst People in Pearl City
"Jia Lei, I just heard from the people below that you are going to cooperate with Tomson Group?" Mayor Zhao asked with a frown as he looked at Jia Lei.
"yes, what's wrong with that?" Jia Lei asked.
"Of course there is a problem, do you know how people outside call Tang Junnian now?" Mayor Zhao couldn't help but sigh when he said this.
"What do they call Tang Junnian, does it have anything to do with me cooperating with Tang Junnian?" Jia Lei asked puzzled.
"Of course it has something to do with it! Because Tang is one of the two most miserable people in Mingzhu City this year, the people of Mingzhu City privately call Tang Junnian "Pudong Soup" and "Trap Soup"!
Because of macroeconomic control, domestic banks have tightened monetary policy and begun to tighten monetary policy, suspending loans for real estate projects, while Tomson Group has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in advance funds in several projects that are under construction in Pudong.
You also know that the biggest source of funds for the real estate industry is bank loans, and now that Tomson Group's source of funds has been cut off, many of Tang Junnian's real estate projects in Pudong cannot continue.
In order to continue the construction of the project in hand, Tang Junnian has recently sold many of his houses and factories on Hong Kong Island and Wanwan to cash out, and then took the money to Pudong to maintain the real estate projects of Tomson Group.
However, there are too many real estate projects in Tang Junnian's hands that start construction at the same time, and it will cost at least $3 billion to complete all these projects!
Everyone said that Tomson Group is now a bottomless pit, and if you run to cooperate with Tomson Group at this time, you are likely to be dragged down by Tang Junnian......" Mayor Zhao explained to Jia Lei.
At this moment, Pudong is in the early stage of development, and all the projects under the Tomson Group are in the process of only investment and no income, and the capital chain of the Tomson Group is already in danger and may collapse at any time.
"It's okay, I don't care about the financial situation of Tomson Group! Anyway, Mr. Tang and I have only cooperated on two projects, and it will only cost a maximum of $200 million to develop those two projects. If there is no money in the Tomson Group, I can take it out myself, and this little money can't drag me down.
High risk can get high returns, I want to gamble!" Jia Lei said indifferently.
Domestic macroeconomic regulation and control has indeed dealt a heavy blow to real estate developers who rely on bank loans to operate, but Jia Lei has taken the path of financial investment, and his cash flow is sufficient, so he does not need to go to the bank for loans.
"But the risk of you cooperating with Tang Junnian is still too high!
You don't know, now people in the whole Pearl City call Tang Junnian the largest "trapped" household in Huaxia, because he is the real estate developer who has invested the most in Mingzhu City and even in the whole of China.
I don't want you to follow in the footsteps of Tang Junnian and be caught in the real estate industry that collapsed in China, and I'm afraid I won't be able to help you then. Mayor Zhao said with a headache.
The nicknames of "Haha...... "Trapping Soup" and "Pudong Soup" sound quite funny, but I believe that with Tang Junnian's ability, he will have the day when he will be untied sooner or later!
Godfather, don't worry, I will follow in the footsteps of Tang Junnian, the reason why Tomson Group is facing the danger of breaking the capital chain and bankruptcy is because he is too dependent on bank loans and has no other financial resources.
But unlike Tang Junnian, several major industries in my hands continue to generate income for me every day, and I now have enough money to open a bank.
I don't believe it, I can't wait for the day when the real estate market recovers with the $1.02 billion I spent, and I won't need it in the next few years. Jia Lei replied that he was ready to operate these two real estate projects as growth line investments.
Because the development and construction cycle of some large-scale real estate projects alone will be more than five years, Jia Lei estimates that after the completion of these projects, it will be just enough to catch up with the surge in the domestic real estate market.
"Hehe...... My dear godson Jia Lei, have you made a fortune from anywhere recently? You don't even take 1 billion or 2 billion US dollars in your eyes......" Mayor Zhao suddenly stared at Jia Lei after hearing Jia Lei's words and asked, but his tone of voice was a little weird.
"Godfather, why are you looking at me so insensitively?Why do I think your tone was a little wrong just now?" Jia Lei asked after a shudder, touching the goosebumps on his body, and he didn't know that the sixth sense from there made him feel bad.
"Jia Lei, you see that since you have so much spare money in the bank now, can you lend you some money to my godfather?" Mayor Zhao stared at Jia Lei tightly and asked, he didn't even dare to blink his eyelids for fear that Jia Lei would run away.
"Oh, godfather, you just want to borrow money from me? I thought you had something bad to do with me!
The way you looked just now frightened me, you didn't know that you looked at me just now like a weasel greeting a chicken for the New Year!" Jia Lei said with a sigh of relief, he looked at Mayor Zhao's eyes just now and felt as if they were glowing green.
"Don't tell me it's useless! Just say it, are you willing to lend me money?" Mayor Zhao asked anxiously.
"You're my godfather, how could I not want to lend you money? Say, how much do you always want to borrow from me?" Jia Lei replied briskly, he has always been very generous to his own people.
"I want to borrow $500 million in low-interest loans from you?" Mayor Zhao asked nervously.
"Poof! cough cough ......!" Jia Lei squirted out the drink he was drinking after hearing Mayor Zhao's words, and he was so frightened that he choked.
"Godfather, are you crazy, aren't you? Why are you the mayor of Mingzhu City borrowing so much money from me? Aren't you afraid that others will say that you are asking me for bribes?" Jia Lei asked in shock.
You must know that the investigation team from the capital has not left yet, if Jia Lei really dares to lend Mayor Zhao 500 million US dollars, then neither of them will be able to escape, and they will definitely be arrested by the investigation team on the charge of offering and accepting bribes.
"I have no choice but to do this, I am really short of money now......" Mayor Zhao said with a headache, he is now so short of money that he can no longer care about avoiding suspicion.
"Godfather, you are the dignified mayor of Mingzhu City! Your whole family's food is covered by the state, why do you want to borrow so much money from me?" Jia Lei asked in disbelief.
"Why can't I borrow so much money from you!
Didn't I just tell you that Tang Junnian is now one of the two worst people in Mingzhu City, and your godfather and I are the other one of the two worst people!
Now the whole Pearl City and even the whole country know that I am a miserable person in the city, and everyone now calls me "Pu Dongzhao"!
Because I am the leader of the city directly under the Pudong development, this time the bank recovered all the investment funds and loans for the real estate project, and as a result, several projects in the Pudong New Area have been forced to stop.
If I can't get a sum of money for those real estate developers, then my Pudong New District will be stillborn!" Mayor Zhao said helplessly, he is really miserable now.
