"Is it already fifth, and how can I go one step further?"

Lin Cheng didn't expect Lin's Bank to develop so quickly. Ｘ

The rapid development of Lin's Bank gave Lin Cheng a hint of ambition, and he originally planned to build China's first capital and financial consortium with a bank as the core, so as to enhance the ability of his companies to participate in international competition, and increase his strength and influence.

It's just that if it is a financial consortium, it must be an organic combination of big banks and large enterprises, and now Lin Cheng's Lin Group and Lin Holdings can be called large enterprises.

However, Lin's Bank has obviously lagged behind, and except for Xiangjiang, Lin's Bank's business in other places is almost zero, and it does not meet the standards of the so-called big banks at all.

"We must acquire a commercial bank that has huge influence in the world, otherwise even if the so-called Lin consortium is really established, without the support of big banks, it will only be a top-heavy patient. ”

At this moment, Lin Cheng had already made up his mind that he must acquire a world-class commercial bank as the core link of the Lin consortium in the future.

It's just that the time is not yet ripe, Lin Cheng has not really reached the top ten positions on the Forbes rich list, his fame and influence have not yet been fully fermented, and it is too early to acquire the World Bank.

After listening to Liang Botao's report, Lin Cheng patted Liang Botao on the shoulder and praised: "Lao Liang, Huiyi, you can still develop the Lin Holding Group and the Lin Financial Group so well in my absence, and you really live up to my expectations, thank you!"

Chen Huiyi shrugged her shoulders and was noncommittal to Lin Cheng's praise, after all, she and Lin Cheng had long been integrated, and naturally knew Lin Cheng's virtue of only cultivating wasteland but not sowing seeds.

Liang Botao said modestly: "It's not hard, it's not hard, it's all the result of Lin Sheng's effective remote control command and the concerted efforts of the whole group." ”

Lin Cheng waved his hand and said, "I don't have to worry about what you do, but the expansion of the Lin Bank can be stopped now, and the most important thing at the moment is to digest all the fruits of the previous victory." After all, doing business is the same as building a house, only by laying a solid foundation can a higher building be built. ”

Liang Botao nodded and said: "Lin Sheng is right, now our Lin Bank has become the fifth largest bank in Xiangjiang, second only to HSBC, Bank of China, Standard Chartered, and Hang Seng Bank. It's just that these four major banks either have the right to issue Hong Kong paper, or they are Hong Kong stock index service banks, and we will not be able to surpass these four major banks in the short term. ”

Chen Huiyi asked: "By the way, Cheng Zai, you hurriedly recruited us from Xiangjiang, didn't you say that you want to carry out a new investment plan?"

Lin Cheng nodded and replied, "That's right, this time I will set aside a huge amount of $10 billion to invest in Southeast Asia."

After the financial crisis, the economy of Southeast Asia was hit hard, and European and American capital, Japanese and South Korean capital fled sharply.

However, Southeast Asia, as a vast region, has a huge population and abundant resources, and will definitely usher in retaliatory growth after entering the next century, and Chinese businessmen will definitely make a lot of money during this period of growth and become the dominant economy in Southeast Asia.

What we need to do is to take a stake in the promising companies of Chinese businessmen, join their ranks, and share the future economic fruits of Southeast Asia with them. ”

The huge investment of 10 billion US dollars is undoubtedly another large-scale strategic plan by Lin Cheng, and the blood of Liang Botao and Chen Huiyi has boiled.

If Southeast Asia is really as Lin Cheng predicted, it will usher in economic recovery after entering the next century, then Lin Cheng, who has invested in a number of Chinese commercial enterprises, is likely to become the de facto boss who controls the economy of Southeast Asia, which is exciting to think about!

Liang Botao said excitedly: "I agree with Lin Sheng's opinion very much, Lin Sheng, you give an order, which companies to invest in, I will definitely strive for as much equity as possible for Lin Sheng according to your plan." ”

Lin Cheng waved his hand and said: "I haven't made up my mind about which company to invest in, after all, there is no right to speak without investigation, but my opinion is that all enterprises involved in port and terminal trade are best acquired, and shipbuilding companies are also among my acquisition targets."

I estimate that after the motherland joins the WTO in the next century, the world's shipping will definitely usher in a wave of explosive growth, this wave of market we Lin must grasp, maybe I can be a world-class ship king in the future. ”

The world ship king was still a very powerful existence in the sixties and seventies, and the ship king Bao Yugang was the banner of Xiangjiang at that time, and his fame and influence were not under Li Chaoren.

It's just that after entering the 80s, as more and more shipping companies join the shipping competition, the international shipping environment has deteriorated a lot, and the ship kings in any region have entered a difficult predicament.

At that time, the mainland's energy and freight demand had not yet exploded, and the world's freight business had reached and was almost fixed.

The shipping business has not increased, but there are more and more shipping companies competing for the shipping business, and the result must be that the world is difficult, and everyone has entered a difficult period.

It was not until after China's accession to the WTO that Chinese enterprises went to the markets around the world to buy and buy, and the shipping business ushered in explosive growth.

The outbreak of China's energy and freight markets has almost fed the world's shipping companies, and from this point of view, shipping companies all over the world should be grateful to China!

After entering the new century, China's acquisition of oil fields, mines, natural gas, and China's manufacturing to the world, etc., all need sea ships to transport, and it is the right time to enter the field of shipping.

Now the shipping company is still half-dead, once it enters the new century, all of them will become enterprises with excellent performance, Lin Cheng as a reborn who is familiar with the history of shipping development, how can he miss this great opportunity?!

Liang Botao praised when he heard this: "Lin Sheng is really far-sighted, and his eyes are farther than ordinary people. Now no one can imagine that the garbage-like shipping company will become a big treasure with excellent performance in the future. ”

Lin Cheng waved his hand and said: "Don't put a high hat on me! It's not that I really see farther than others, but very few shipping companies have lived so long, from the 80s to the present, the world's shipping depression has been almost 20 years, and how many shipping companies have fallen during this period? It's hard to count!"

Liang Botao asked again: "In addition to shipping companies, what other enterprises does Lin Sheng plan to invest in?"

Lin Cheng thought for a while, and said: "Indonesia's Sinar Mas Group and Acupuncture Group are all high-quality enterprises worth investing in. ”r
