Chapter 1356: The Only Loser
After hanging up the phone, Zidane called Shi Lei and smiled excitedly: "Mr. Shi, everything is OK, it's completely planned." 187.5 billion, now it's all ours. The new government in Tayastan promised to withhold all the money in these accounts. Those companies will be unfrozen in a month, but they will be fined more than $500 million per company. ”
Shi Lei also smiled slightly, and he said, "Have you laundered your own money?"
Zidane was stunned for a moment, and Shi Lei said again: "Of course I don't believe that Mr. Zidane just took out 100 billion US dollars to aid the new government in Taystan, and then went to carve up more than 10 billion profits, not to mention accompanying me crazy, your adventure does not match the profits you get at all." I'm sure you've also used a lot of capital to exchange old currency. ”
Zidane was stunned again, and then laughed and said: "Mr. Shi, there are still many places where we can cooperate in the future." ”
"So, your profits are yours, and I don't want to get any. It's just that since it's cooperation, it's better to be honest in the future. After all, no matter how secretive it is, there is always a trace. Besides, you should know that I can't fail to investigate all of this. ”
"This time it's my problem, and I hope Mr. Shi doesn't mind. I originally thought that this was my personal matter and I didn't need to explain it to Mr. Shi. But now that I think about it, it was indeed my mistake, and the cooperation should indeed be more open and transparent. In order to make up for my mistakes, I will give 30% more than the valuation of the United Kingdom. And, for the entire Parisian market, I will bear the costs. ”
This is also quite a lot of sincerity, after all, large amounts of cash cannot be transferred around at will, and must be digested through a series of business means.
According to gross estimates, Qixuan UK opened a C round of financing, with the current valuation of more than 2 billion euros, an increase of 30%, and it will definitely exceed 3 billion euros. Zidane will have to pay close to 100 million euros more to acquire 10% of the shares in Series C.
At the same time, he is responsible for the opening costs of the entire French market, which will never be less than 100 million euros.
With more than 200 million euros, Shi Lei can also accept such a result.
Moreover, what Shi Lei did not know was that in Zidane's account, there was also the value of the castle of 200 million euros. Shi Lei will definitely pay back the money, but Zidane doesn't think so, and neither side is clear about the psychology of the other party.
mentioned this matter on the phone, Shi Lei didn't really want to get any benefits from Zidane, but since Zidane took the initiative to give it, Shi Lei was disrespectful.
Judging from Zidane's generous spending of as much as 200 million euros, his personal benefits from this old and new currency exchange system are at least billions to tens of billions. Coupled with the fact that he invested 100 billion US dollars to get at least 20 billion in profits, Zidane can get more than 30 billion US dollars in profits alone.
Of course, his 100 billion will not be returned to him until some time has passed, otherwise the Tayastan government will not need their assistance.
With the contribution of the ferryman, the life of the Tayastan government will be much better, and the speed of repaying Zidane and others should be much faster.
In a win-win situation, the only loser is the ferryman.
As for the owners of those black money, Shi Lei didn't even count them, anyway, the money was all illegally obtained and deserved to be emptied.
Of course, Shi Lei could think that the ferryman who was forced to the brink of desperation would definitely use the idea of the remaining money that would be unfrozen in a month, and he would never admit defeat, so the owners of those black money were almost destined to be truly lost.
"I don't know how much the ferryman prepaid them before, this is the only money they can recover, right?" - Shi Lei thought silently.
Immediately, Shi Lei also put forward a new request for Zidane.
"Mr. Zidane, let the past pass, and as you said, we still have many opportunities to work together. I have one more small request. ”
Zidane was still in a state of excitement, and said without hesitation: "Mr. Shi, you said, as long as I can do it, I will never shirk." ”
Shi Lei smiled: "This is really a small thing. For those 100 companies, even after the huge fines are removed, plus the companies themselves, they are still worth more than $200 billion. I'm curious to see what that consortium will eventually do with all of this, after all, it's $200 billion, and it's going to be very difficult to clean up this mess. So, I hope you can keep in touch with the new government in Tayastan, and I need to know in advance when they will unfreeze the accounts of these companies. ”
Zidane suddenly took care of everything, which was really a trivial matter.
"This is a minor issue, and in the next two days, I will invite the Chancellor of the Exchequer of the new government in Tayastan to dinner, and when the time comes, I hope that Mr. Shi will also be there. I think the two of you should be good friends too. ”
Shi Lei knew that this was to put the initiative directly into his hands, and he readily agreed.
But Zidane suddenly thought of a question, and he asked: "Mr. Shi, you can't be fighting those companies again, right?"
Shi Lei laughed and said, "Mr. Zidane, you really think highly of me." 200 billion dollars, how can I have such a big appetite. Moreover, I am no better than you, you are a person who is under the double protection of the European Union and France, how can I dare to face the anger of those gang leaders! I just want to take advantage of the time when they sell those companies, and use the name of the fund to absorb some of them, after all, there are still more than 10 billion yuan left in the fund, and it must be put to some use. ”
Zidane didn't believe it very much, but what Shi Lei said made sense, even if he had his back to the pupil of the night, he would never dare to easily try the anger of those black money owners.
So far, the entire operation process has almost nothing to do with Shi Lei, at least, the two consortia in Europe and the United States cannot find any clues of Shi Lei's involvement.
Shi Lei has been trying his best to clear up the connection with this matter, and there is really no reason to stand up at the last moment.
Perhaps, he really just wants to buy some companies while the price is low- Zidane hung up the phone, silently thinking.
Two days later, Shi Lei was invited to dinner with Taystan's finance minister and had a great conversation with Zidane.
It was after this dinner that Shi Lei confirmed that the $10 billion that had been deposited in advance had been remitted to the confidential account of the Swiss bank he provided.
The rest of the money will need to wait until the entire old and new currency exchange system is over, and then the spoils can be shared in the account.
Roughly calculated, eight percent, Shi Lei will receive more than 25 billion US dollars, of course, the remaining 15 billion can only be left in the free fund. If Shi Lei wants to cash out, the handling fee will be as high as more than 50%.
Shi Lei will definitely not take it, this money, he still has to keep the reputation of harvesting.
After leaving Taystan, Shi Lei returned to London, and Qixuan announced in a high-profile manner that the dust had settled on the C round of financing, and the Zidane family would invest in full.
