The Bank of Montreal is willing to raise its shares again, mainly because it sees that it is profitable.

Isn't that what the investors have been flocking to these days illustrate this?

$300 million is not much, and it will not affect Zhang Bin's shares too much.

Because he received George's invitation, Zhang Bin prepared to go to Toronto before the 15th.

Before that, he needs to identify the person who will make the initial investment.

Of course, the others can be handed over to Ivor, and Johnson will be in charge, but J.P Morgan, a big guy, Zhang Bin, needs to touch it personally, and then hand it over to Ivor.

At nine o'clock in the morning of the 13th, Zhang Bin met Harry in the reception room of the hotel. Flens, a white man in his mid-thirties, seemed shrewd.

"Zhang, it's a pleasure to meet you", Harry hugged him warmly as soon as he saw Zhang Bin.

Zhang Bin is used to this kind of enthusiasm, and if he doesn't know anyone during this time, he will have a hug when he meets, just like an old friend who has known him for a few years.

"Harry?" Zhang Bin confirmed.

"That's right, Harry. Flens", Harry said with a smile as he introduced himself.

The two then sat down, with a tea set on the table.

"Coffee?" Zhang Bin enjoyed the process of making tea and asked casually.

"Well, it would be my pleasure to get a taste of Zhang's craftsmanship," Harry said with a smile.

"Yes", Zhang Bin motioned for him to do it himself.

On the table, there are six small cups of purple sand, which look small and exquisite, and the tea in them is green, which looks good.

Harry picked up a glass, took a decent sip, and gave a thumbs up, looking very good.

Zhang Bin smiled, and he didn't take it seriously.

"I heard that Morgan wants to take a stake in Global Investments?" Zhang Bin said straightforwardly.

"That's right, I've been in contact with other shareholders in your company, and they want us to work together, so it's up to you to say that," Harry said with a smile.

"How do you want to work together?" Zhang Bin asked.

There is no way to agree to Morgan's shareholding, and there are good and bad things about Morgan's shareholding.

The good thing is, of course, that they strengthen the company and increase their capital, and at the same time they can increase their revenue.

But the downside is that the power of the board of directors will become more complex, which will make future investment more ineffective, or not as convenient as it is now.

Now an investment, maybe four people can agree, but in the future, five people will have to agree, and Morgan is certainly not a small investment.

"At present, it is rumored that the value of global investment may have exceeded $8 billion, but according to our bank's estimates, the capital of your company should be around $6 billion, and at most not more than $7 billion," Harry said, looking at Zhang Bin.

Zhang Bin drank a cup of tea and looked at Harry, "And then?" ”

"We're willing to invest $2 billion, 30 percent of the shares, what do you think?" Harry said.

"Impossible", Zhang Bin didn't hesitate at all, and looked at Harry with stunned eyes, "Unless you engage in another global investment yourself, this is simply impossible."

Harry's brows furrowed slightly, Zhang Bin's reaction surprised him a little, could it be that the estimation was wrong? Or is this just Zhang Bin's deliberate difficulty?

"How are Zhang ready?" Harry probed.

Zhang Bin shook his head, "First, I don't have to need your investment, and second, you decide how much money you pay, but we decide how many shares you occupy."

"Since it's a negotiation, then we can talk slowly, and Zhang doesn't need to be so decisive," Harry laughed.

Zhang Bin said: "I put forward my request, you can talk to Ivor specifically, and then I will leave Washington for a period of time, first, we will accept no more than 3 billion US dollars, second, the proportion of shares will not exceed 30%, if you take it away, what will I share with other investors?" ”

"I'm sorry, I'll let Ivort talk to you in detail next", Zhang Bin walked away directly after speaking.

Harry's face was still a little embarrassed, as if he didn't expect Zhang Bin to be so straightforward and leave.

Zhang Bin naturally wants to express an attitude, we are not asking you to invest, now you want to invest in shares, don't come with a gesture of pity.

Zhang Bin didn't have much time to spend here, and the first batch of investment was determined at least after Christmas.

When it comes to billions of dollars of investment, Zhang Bin still leaves it to professionals like Ivor and Johnson to be in charge of negotiations, and he is responsible for the direction of investment, and negotiation is not his strong point.

After separating from Harry, Zhang Bin called Ivor and asked him to be responsible for contacting Harry, and told him the two conditions he had just made.

In terms of shares, Zhang Bin was able to allow Morgan's stake not to exceed 20%, because once that number was exceeded, his control over global investment would be severely weakened.

Although Zhang Bin has the intention of not accepting Morgan, it seems that he is a little afraid, since this is the case, it is better to be generous, but it must be controlled in terms of shares.

In the afternoon, Zhang Bin took Zhou Jingyu to visit the Harlan family again.

Before leaving, Harlan said that he would stay here until he returned to Napa Valley after Christmas, and that he would welcome Zhang Bin to play there, and said that he wanted to talk to Zhang Bin about red wine.

Harlan is not too old, at least not as old as Warren Buffett, and his desire to invest has naturally not decreased.

In the evening, Zhang Bin and they ate at Gates's house.

For Gates, Zhang Bin felt somewhat apologetic.

Because in the matter of Global Investment Company, Zhang Bin feels that he owes Gates a lot.

So after talking about things at work, Zhang Bin will try his best to tell Gates some things he knows, such as some problems that Microsoft may face next, system problems, Zhang Bin reminded Gates as tactfully as possible, hoping to attract his attention, which can also reduce the apology in his heart.

"Zhang, there's something I want to talk to you about", Melinda pulled Zhang Bin as he was about to leave.

"Honey, you say," Zhang Bin said.

"I don't know much about some of the problems in your country, but the drug research center is more responsible for the research of local health conditions and drugs for related diseases, and it is originally a research institute or something, but the situation seems to be a bit complicated recently", Melinda said here and seemed very helpless.

After Melinda's statement, Zhang Bin understood the general situation of the matter.

It turns out that after the last disaster, the branch of the research center naturally has a group of loyal fans, these people like to go directly to the research center after getting sick, but the research center is not a hospital, but the doctors are benevolent, and sometimes they will help to deal with it simply, and of course they will not charge money.

As for the name, the research center is in the name of studying the local health situation and collecting some materials, and the government will not care about a small number of such cases, and the other is because there are many survivors who received treatment in the research center at the beginning, and there are also postoperative treatments.

The treatment here in the research center is effective, and the staff are very caring, no need to pay money, and I feel much better than in the hospital.

But in this way, everyone thinks that the research center is a charity medical institution that provides free treatment, and more and more people come, and they don't give money.

After half a month like this, seeing that the situation was obviously out of control, the research center decisively stopped all external assistance.

As soon as the door was closed, those people stopped doing it, and they all said that the research center was a liar, and some people even stood up and said that the research center used inferior drugs at the beginning, and now it has caused his condition to deteriorate, and they want the research center to give an explanation.

Not only that, but several local hospitals also jointly sued the research center, saying that they had no right to practice medicine at all, but they used drugs and took in patients without authorization, which completely ignored international medical rules and violated the original intention of the establishment of the research center's branch.
