Chapter 495: Unexpected Surprise

The morning sun is always at its most beautiful, no matter where you greet it.

A high-quality sleep made Lin Fan reverse the jet lag, and after breakfast, Lin Fan did not have the habit of going out to hang out, but read books and newspapers in his room with peace of mind.

Waiting is a rare leisure for him, otherwise he has too many things to deal with at home. But Ma Yun and others are more tired than Lin Fan, Ali is in the stage of vigorous development, Ma Yun wants the world to fly, to negotiate contracts and negotiate projects, this is not to say that his people can't do it, on the contrary, Cai Chongxin and others are the top players in China.

Such hard work is a common problem of the founder, the founder is talented and capable, and the company is their hard work, not that they don't want to give up power, but they like this kind of rushing steadfastness. However, in the later stage, the mentality of the founders will gradually change, and they will change from the head of the company to the helm.

But Lin Fan has already come to this point in advance, because Lin Fan understands that what he has is only the idea of leadership, and the actual control should still be handed over to professional people.

At ten o'clock, Lin Fan got up and left the hotel and went to a western restaurant, which was the place to meet Li You. If you meet at the Four Seasons Hotel, it is very likely that Li You will be exposed. Lin Fan had no doubt that on the first day he stayed at the Four Seasons Hotel, his information had already appeared in the Four Seasons Hotel's internal database.

"Mr. Lin. Li You was very respectful when he saw Lin Fan, his position in Peking University Founder had been silently transferred to the position of director, and he no longer held a specific position, and now all his energy was in Dubai in Europe, and Lin Fan was his actual boss, so he naturally had to hug his thighs.

"Mr. Li, don't be formal, let's order food first, and talk while eating. ”

After a while, the steak was in his stomach, and Lin Fan also had a little energy. Li You started today's topic with a very good eye, "Mr. Lin, as you expected, Dubai has pushed back the debt repayment date again and again, I'm afraid they really want to repay the debt." ”

"That's our opportunity, and now we can buy bonds at a low enough price. ”

"That's right, these banks would rather sell to us at a low price for real money than an empty repayment period. Even if Dubai can really pay it back, it is not known until what year it will be repaid, and if there is a slight mistake in this period, it may be lost. Foreigners also understand that a thousand birds are better in the forest than a bird in hand. ”

Lin Fan couldn't help but smile, "It seems that you have good news when you see me." ”

"That's right, we have already bought the first batch of 10 billion US dollars of creditor's rights, and the transaction price is only 8 billion, just waiting for Mr. Lin to communicate with the state for funding. ”

Lin Fan couldn't help but move in his heart when he heard this, "There is a second batch?"

"That's right, I used to contact BNP Paribas, and now I came to the UK to contact Standard Chartered Bank, and this batch is still 10 billion US dollars, and the price may be around 7.5 billion US dollars, and we are still talking. ”

Lin Fan couldn't help but be happy in his heart, Li You is so powerful, he can't say that, he can only say that the trend of defaulting on debts in Dubai has become more and more obvious, and these banks are afraid that their accounts will be yellow. Besides, it is not a loss for banks to sell at a low price now, and the interest on the loans issued by banks over the years can almost offset their losses at a discount, not to mention that they can buy real money right now. The bank was extremely eager, and Li You, who wanted to buy it, definitely hit it off.

Lin Fan was happy that he didn't have to take out a loan for the two billion dollars he needed to cooperate with Wright, but the central bank was only willing to acquire a maximum of 40 billion yuan, otherwise Lin Fan would definitely make a profit this time.

"Li You, you did a good job, I'll make a call to Zhou Lao to report. ”

As he spoke, Lin Fan had already taken out his mobile phone and dialed Zhou Xiaochuan's number, "Old Zhou, I'm Lin Fan." ”

"Xiaolin, what's the matter with me?"

"This is a happy event, Dubai's tens of billions of debts and loans have been received, and now you need to allocate your old funds. ”

"I borrowed two billion dollars from you last time, and I will only pay eight billion dollars this time. ”

"Yes, no problem. ”

hung up the phone after a few words, but Li You's face was full of envy, "Mr. Lin, how old is it this week?"

"Zhou Xiaochuan and Governor Zhou of the Central Bank. ”

Sure enough, in fact, Li You had already guessed, but he was still a little shocked when he said it from Lin Fan's mouth. He was very envious and relieved, it turned out that he was really doing things for the country.

Lin Fan took in the changes in Li You's expression, this call was made by him deliberately in front of Li You, and it seemed to work very well. However, if Li You knew that he was working hard and was actually just working for Lin Fan, I don't know if he would be so happy.

"The central bank will not come forward easily, now you are the owner of this batch of bonds, these banks want to collect debts, you also follow to collect debts, how to do it, always waiting for the state's notice. ”

Li You's expression froze, "Mr. Lin, don't worry, I will definitely complete the task well." ”

Lin Fan looked funny, but he still held back, "By the way, is there anything else you want to report to me?"

"Yes, now we control more than $6 billion in the size of the group in Dubai. ”

Lin Fan didn't think it was strange, in the European small stock market crash, with one billion dollars as the base, Li You manipulated the funds to earn more than one billion dollars, and with more than 2 billion US dollars in his hands, he took down the Palm Island project, and then used it to borrow from the bank and then control other companies, and the cycle began again and again, as if it was snowballing, which was Tang Wanxin's forte.

However, Lin Fan also had doubts, "Palm Island plans to invest 14 billion US dollars in construction, can more than 2 billion US dollars eat this behemoth?"

When it comes to Li You's profession, Li You's eyebrows suddenly danced, "According to common sense, naturally I can't eat it, but now Dubai World, the parent company of Palm Island, is difficult to protect itself, plus the actual investment in this project is only 10.9 billion, 14 billion is just a gimmick, and we have united with Abu Dhabi Company, so it is easy to eat Palm Island." ”

"How much do we own?"

"We have a joint 60 per cent stake with Abu Dhabi, of which we have 25 per cent, Abu Dhabi 35 per cent, and Dubai World continues to own the remaining 40 per cent. ”

"Fight to eat all the remaining shares. ”

Li You was taken aback, "Mr. Lin, are you so optimistic about Dubai's economy? The cheapest property in Palm Island is also $800,000, can the market eat it now?"

Of course, Lin Fan is confident, Lin Fan doesn't know about other projects, but Palm Island Lin Fan knows that it is still famous in later generations, and the rapid development of the tourism industry has made Dubai attract a large number of people to come, and then countless foreigners have bought property here, and Palm Island, known as the eighth wonder of the world, is the first choice.

"Of course, trust my eyes. ”

"Okay, I'll follow through. ”
