"Larry's price is 560 million, and you can't go below that. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Murdoch rubbed his big nose and smiled weirdly, "For me, selling to anyone is selling, as long as I can recover enough profits." I am a businessman, and everything speaks for profit. But there are a lot of people who hate Larry, and quite a few friends have called me and asked me not to sell Lanai to Larry, especially Bill. ”

"So if my offer is higher than that, then I'll be able to get the island?" Promise's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth smiled, "How much more?" Hundred? Or a million? ”

"Hehehe~~~," Murdoch laughed happily, "It's been a long time since a young man like you dared to make such a joke in front of me." ”

"Larry doesn't have many friends, but he has a lot of people who hate him." Smiling, Murdoch began to explain the ins and outs of the matter in detail: "Many people, including Bill Gates, don't want him to buy this island and do anything about environmental technology and organic farming. It is inconvenient for them to come forward themselves, and at this time they hope that a white knight will sabotage Larry's plan. ”

"Bill Gates?" Xu Promise looked strange, smiled and said, "If this rich man wants to buy Lanai, he can do it himself, what else is wrong with me?" There must be something else involved in this matter, right? ”

"You're right." Murdoch picked up the wine bottle on the coffee table in front of him and began to pour wine, "Larry is the boss of Oracle, and the people who have the ability to compete with him basically have business dealings with Oracle, and Larry's personality has always been revenge. So Bill and the others don't want to confront Larry on this matter, after all, it's not worth it for the sake of the island. There were friends from China and the Middle East who had this idea before, but they all gave up after learning about Larry's offer. No one wants to offend a tycoon who is also the owner of the world's largest database software company. After all, everyone has their own company, and Lanai is not a necessity. ”

"I see." Promise's eyes flickered, "Then Mr. Murdoch may hate Mr. Ellison too." ”

"Oh?" Murdoch's hand holding the wine glass paused slightly: "What do you say?" ”

"Because there's no competition, you can't sell at a high price." The promise made Murdoch burst out laughing, "That's right, that's what it means!" That's why I personally invite you to come and go fishing! ”

"You're from Huaxia, and your company doesn't have much to do with Oracle." Murdoch sipped his drink and explained, "So after the news came out, many people were very optimistic about you and wanted you to be a white knight. Of course, that's also in my heart. After all, if you want to buy, the bid must be higher than Larry's. This kind of business, since it is officially quoted, will not raise the price again, and if you use funds to suppress people, your reputation in this circle will be over. After all, there are many people in this world who are not short of money. Larry is arrogant, but he's smart. Know what you can and can't do. ”

"To put it simply, as long as the price I offer satisfies you, then Larry Ellison can only hate me, but there is no other way to increase the price?" Promise's face was a little strange: "You got the benefits, Bill Gates, they successfully blocked Larry Ellison's purchase of Lanai." And I offended a top rich man because of it? ”

"In theory, it does." Spirited, not at all like an octogenarian, Murdoch shook the glass in his hand, "If you can get the island you want." ”

After a pause, Murdoch said with a serious expression, "I'm not interested in what kind of background you have, as long as the purchase money you pay is funds under the sun." I'll take care of all the relevant things for you. Because you are a foreigner after all, although you can buy, but all kinds of from the federal and state politics. There are still troubles in the house. As for the news media, I will also take care of it for you. This is a little bit of sincerity on my part with you. ”

"Okay." The words have already reached this level, and the promise has no other thoughts, and immediately nodded and agreed, "I will invest $600 million to acquire Lanai Island in the name of SC Bioengineering Company under my name." ”

Murdoch, who was old but still in good spirits, had a gleam in his eyes and picked up the red wine to fill the glass in front of him. Standing up with a wine glass, "Happy cooperation." ”

"Under Hawaii law, Lanai property rights can only be sold for 98 percent and the other 2 percent will remain with the state forever. Prefecture. After talking about things, he promised to spend the whole day fishing with Murdoch in the bay. After returning to Los Angeles, Scott, who was very concerned about the matter, began to give the most detailed introduction to the promise.

"Lanai has a lot of Polynesian cultural heritage, and it's tropical and has a dry climate." Although many of the promises have been made in detail, Scott is still doing his job well at this time: "On this 365-square-kilometer island, there are two resort hotels, two championship golf courses and clubs, and about 90,000 acres of land including 600 acres of residential development, solar farms, parks and utilities." ”

"All these lands are mine?" Promise glanced at the time, there was still some time before he got on the plane, and he continued to make small talk with Scott.

"After the transaction is completed, these property rights will be yours, but the sovereignty will remain with the United States." Scott, who looked excited, quickly explained, "Mr. Murdoch said that he will submit the application to the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission as soon as possible and ask them to approve it within a week at the latest in order to complete the transaction with you." ”

"In such a hurry?" Xu Yu narrowed his eyes, "He's not afraid that I won't be able to come up with the money?" ”

"The gentleman laughed." Scott smiled, "Our firm is your financial advisor, and your SC company already has more than $600 million in liquid capital in Citi's bank account. After you made your offer to buy, we have asked Citi to provide a guarantee. Mr. Murdoch is famously not a rabbit and not a hawk. ”

"Looks like you all know how much money I have." Xu promised to pick up a bottle of mineral water from the coffee table next to him, twist the lid, "In front of the accountant, there is really no secret to speak of." ”

"It's because we have your authority." Scott explained sincerely, "It is impossible for Citibank to disclose any private information without your authorization. And, as long as you need to, there will be absolutely no possibility of leaking the relevant aspects of this transaction. ”

"Well, you and Cahill will take care of the rest of the matter, and I'll give you the relevant authority." Xu Promise glanced at the time, got up and picked up his coat, "Keep it low." ”

"Yes."

In the evening, the golden sunset spreads across the sky, and the sunset in the west gives full vent to its enthusiasm. The clouds in the sky were cirling, and the dazzling glow penetrated the fiery clouds on the horizon, smearing people's eyes with a layer of brilliant golden brilliance.

In the midst of such a dazzling beauty, the promise of returning to his villa from the City of Angels was restless, his mouth was dry, and a strong burning sensation gushed out from all over his body.

What makes Xu Promise uneasy is the mermaid in front of him, wearing a swimsuit that highlights his beautiful figure, and her fair skin is swimming freely in the clean and transparent pool.

Jessica, who rarely had free time, ran to promise a date and hurriedly jumped into the top pool before dinner to take a dip. However, what she said to Promise before going into the water made Promise feel upset, as if she had been put on top of a frying pan and was constantly suffering.

"I want to introduce you to my friends." It was such an ordinary sentence that made the promise feel like being struck by lightning, and the whole person froze.

At this moment, Xu Promise finally understood that his dream of hugging left and right was about to be shattered.

Kim Taeyeon's smile as clean as jade appeared in front of his eyes. Previously, because of various scruples, mainly because of the nature of their work, neither Jessica nor Kim Taeyeon had any intention of exposing the promise, and of course, there were reasons why the relationship was not completely determined.

But now that Jessica says that she wants to introduce herself to her friends, it goes without saying that the people in the same group must know. Just think about what kind of mood Kim Taeyeon will be like when she learns that the boyfriend introduced by Jessica is actually a promise. Promise now just thinking about it makes me feel a lot of distress. However, at this time, in front of Jessica, he couldn't say no.

After the candlelit dinner, Jessica regretfully leaves to continue her work. The level of competitive pressure in a resource-scarce and narrow country is unimaginable. The career-minded Jessica has no intention of promising to feed her. And in this country where brothers settle accounts, even husband and wife are separated financially.

Let's not say that they are only boyfriend and girlfriend now, even if they are married, Jessica, who was born and raised in the United States, does not have the slightest idea of being promised to be supported, even if she is very rich.

With a reluctant expression on his face, Promise sent Jessica into the car and left. Looking at the taillights in the distance, the promise that was originally reluctant and full of affection suddenly sank, and he hurriedly took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Hello? Cahill? No matter where you are now, come to the villa at once! I have something important to look for you! ”

Cahill, who was already in the airport lounge, with his ticket in hand, ready to board a flight to Los Angeles to participate in the acquisition of Lanai, put away his mobile phone with a puzzled expression. After glancing at the ticket in his hand, he hurriedly turned around and left. Nothing is as important as the greeting of the boss.

When Cahill hurried to the Promise Villa, he was surprised to see that his boss, who had risen rapidly in the rich circle like a comet, was now alone in the garden like an unemployed uncle, setting a table and drinking wine.

"You're here?" Promise waved for Cahill to sit down at the table, and as soon as he came up, he put on his big move: "I have a vital matter that I need your help with!" ”

Cahill couldn't help but straighten up. (To be continued.) )
