Chapter 335: The President's Younger Brother
After answering reporters' questions, Akmin also gushed about the grand blueprint and bright prospects of the project. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Pity.
Whether it was the entrepreneurs who attended the banquet or the journalists, they all showed a lack of interest. Entrepreneurs were less interested in developing wasteland north of São Paulo, and reporters turned their attention to Tang Bao. If it weren't for Akmin's difficulty in standing in front of the podium to interrupt his speech, I'm afraid that someone would have been unable to hold back and throw Akmin aside, and they all wanted to interview Tang Bao......
Usually Tang Bao is very low-key, and it is difficult for American reporters to interview him, let alone Brazilian reporters, but tonight is a rare opportunity.
In the interval between Akeming's speeches, many reporters were secretly thinking in their hearts, silently preparing questions for Tang Bao later.
Of course.
It is impossible for Akmin to know what the reporters are thinking, otherwise, he would have to be half angry.
After answering a few ordinary questions casually, no reporter asked any more questions, Akemin had no choice but to end his speech hastily, and he also understood that with Tang Bao standing next to him, his attraction to reporters as a governor was almost directly reduced to zero.
"Mr. Tang......"
"Mr. Don, I'm a reporter for the São Paulo State Newspaper......"
“……”
As soon as Tang Bao approached the podium, many reporters flocked to him, eager to get the first opportunity to ask questions. The noisy voices came and went, and it was really difficult to hear clearly, Tang Bao's brows furrowed slightly.
This chaos cannot be allowed to continue, or it will cause even more trouble. So, Tang Bao approached the microphone and said, "Fellow journalists, please be quiet. Don't worry, I'll try my best to accommodate your questions! Everyone competes with each other, and the end result is that no one can ask questions. ”
Well.
Many reporters nodded in agreement, and the noisy and chaotic scene gradually became quiet. However, none of the reporters who rushed to the front were willing to back down. After all, standing in front of you has a better chance of getting a chance to ask questions.
"Mr. Tang, you have been investing in the United States for a long time, mainly in the field of financial capital, and this time you have suddenly entered the Brazilian agricultural sector in a big way. Does it mean a shift in investment preferences? In addition, risking severe inflation, is it very optimistic about Brazil's economic prospects? Are there any other investments besides the agricultural development projects just announced? For example, the capital market ...... in Brazil, "the first female journalist to seize the opportunity to ask a question seized the rare opportunity at the right time and asked three questions in one go."
"The first question, the capital market is changing rapidly, in the future, I will invest part of the funds in the traditional real economy to diversify risks, but this does not mean a complete change in investment preferences, financial investment is still the area I rely on the most; The second question is that Brazil is a big country with unlimited market potential, and the temporary predicament will not prevent me from being optimistic about it in the long term, of course, inflation is a problem that I have to face, so I choose agricultural development, relatively speaking, owning real assets such as agricultural land can be a good resistance to inflation; On the third question, I can only say that the announced agricultural cooperative development project will not be the last...... However, for the time being, we will not consider getting involved in the capital sector in Brazil. ”
"The U.S. has a developed real economy and a better business environment, but Mr. Tang abandoned the U.S. and chose to diversify his risk by investing in Brazil. May I assume that Mr. Tang intends to reduce his investment in the United States? Or is Mr. Tang in the United States in the same investment difficulties as Japanese companies? ”
"Diversification of investment risk is not only to diversify the investment industry, but also to diversify the investment region. However, I will not curtail American investment, and it is even less likely that I will abandon the United States. As this journalist friend said, the business environment in the United States is very good...... I didn't have trouble! ”
Right now. Tang Bao's assets in the United States are as high as tens of billions of dollars, but they are still far inferior to the Japanese companies that flock to the United States to buy assets. It is simply impossible to threaten the security of the United States...... The day when he is treated like a Japanese company will show that Tang Bao's industry has the ability to threaten and impact the security of the US economy. Truth be told, he's looking forward to that day.
"Mr. Tang is planning to diversify his investment geography? So, are there any other investment goals besides investing in Brazil? ”
"Yes. However, there is no fixed investment goal...... I will go to the area of interest for a field trip and invest if I am satisfied. Tang Bao replied.
Mr. Tang said that he would diversify his investment, and at the same time, he stressed that he would not compress the assets of the United States, so the source of funds would ...... It is said that Tang Bao once said that he made hundreds of billions of dollars in the Japanese stock market crash, can you elaborate on it? ”
"That's long gone. Moreover, I have described this matter in detail, and I have also published some operation records of stock accounts afterwards. If you are interested, you can look for relevant newspapers and magazines! Tang Bao shook his head and refused to answer.
In the matter of shorting the Japanese stock market, Tang Bao behaved high-profile enough, and it was not easy to calm down the turmoil, he didn't want to cause trouble.
Right now.
The Japanese stock market has continued to be sluggish, falling again and again, and Japanese investors are in dire straits. There is no favor, even hatred, towards international investors who are shorting the Japanese stock market.
At this time, if Tang Bao shows off the achievements of the Japanese stock market crash through the Brazilian media, it is tantamount to pouring salt in the wounds of Japanese investors and attracting hatred.
Seeing Japan's bad luck, Tang Bao was naturally happy, but as long as he was secretly happy, there was no need to tell the world and cause trouble.
Although the Japanese stock market has suffered a heavy blow, it has not quickly spread to the real economy, and in fact the real economy of Japan is still very strong. Japanese companies, led by the six major conglomerates, have not stopped expanding and are still buying frantically everywhere. It really annoyed these madmen, Tang Bao was not afraid, but it was a trouble after all. Tang Bao has a lot of industries, but they all adopt a relatively moderate strategy, and they have never gotten to the point of fighting to the death with any competitor. Even Goldman Sachs, which Tang Bao was vigilant about, only broke out a few secret wars.
In the short term, Tang Bao is also reluctant to develop with anyone to the extent that water and fire are incompatible, which is very energy-consuming. Making a fortune in a muffled voice is the best choice!
……
The questioning lasted for more than ten minutes, and Tang Bao and Asley took turns answering all the questions before the reporters retreated under Akemin's reminder.
Call.
At the end of the interview, Tang Bao couldn't help but take a deep breath. At the same time, I was a little glad in my heart, fortunately, most of the reporters who came here tonight were local reporters from São Paulo State, and most of the topics of questions revolved around Tang Bao's investment in Brazil, but they did not encounter many difficult problems to deal with.
"Boss, it seems that no matter where you go, you are very popular with media reporters!" Asley laughed. Hearing this, Akmin, who was standing next to him and waiting, also smiled.
"Huh. This kind of welcome, I would rather not have. Tang Bao shook his head with a wry smile and said. In the face of a group of people who may ask tricky questions or even set language traps at any time, if you don't want to make mistakes, you have to be vigilant at all times, and giving an interview is no different from a fight, which is very tiring.
Of course.
Tang Bao was just talking, and he was really reluctant to let him give up. Tang Bao came to the fore and became a news topic, although it would be a little inconvenient, but it would also enhance his fame and influence.
There are pros and cons!
"Mr. Tang, I'm really sorry, I originally expected you to spend only two minutes answering a few questions, but I greatly underestimated the enthusiasm of journalists for you, and you were tired. Please come here and rest for a while, and I can introduce you to a few friends......" Akmin said apologetically.
"It doesn't matter."
Tang Bao waved his hand lightly, indicating that he didn't mind.
Well.
Asley, who originally intended to move freely, heard Akemin's words, and immediately canceled the decision, he knew that the people who could make Akemin take the initiative to introduce Tang Bao must be well-known figures in São Paulo, even if they were not the richest entrepreneurs, they would not be far behind, the key is that they must all have strong network resources. Asley knew he couldn't miss this opportunity to make friends......
"Please!"
Akmin smiled and gestured pleased. Then, he led Tang Bao, Asley, Kate and others to the left side of the banquet hall.
On the way, many people leaned over to say hello and mix their faces. However, they were all very politely blocked by Akemin.
Scold.
Tang Bao just smiled and didn't say anything. Following the direction of Akemin's advance, Tang Bao quietly glanced around, and soon, he found that there were six or seven people sitting in the banquet hall near the wall mural on the left, and as Akemin walked in, the other party stood up in unison.
"These people should be the elite of the state of São Paulo that Akmin arranged to meet!" Tang Bao said secretly, but his pace did not slow down in the slightest. On the way to walk, they were also quietly looking at each other.
Soon.
The two sides come together.
"Mr. Tang, they are the people I mentioned to you earlier, and they are all leaders in the Brazilian business community." Akmin pointed to the group of people who stood up to greet him and said with a smile.
Then.
Akmin introduced a tall young man with curly hair in his twenties standing at the forefront, "Mr. Tang, this is a famous young entrepreneur in Brazil, Perod Collor!" Ha, you're the best young people, and it's easier to communicate ......."
"Hello."
Tang Bao smiled and shook hands with the other party. In his heart, he was curious about the identity of the young man in front of him, "It seems that Akmin just started to introduce him at random, but does he really have no other meaning by putting Perold Collor first?" Is there a relationship between the president, who was just elected this year, is Fernando Collor? ”
"Huh. Mr. Tang, do you feel that the surname Collor is a little familiar? Did you guess it...... His brother is Fernando Collore! Seeing the doubt in Tang Bao's eyes, Akmin whispered in his ear.
Tang Bao was surprised in his heart, but he didn't expect that just a simple suspicion would become a fact, and the relationship between the two was close, and the young man in front of him was actually the president's younger brother.
"Hello Mr. Tang, I can often hear about your deeds in Brazil, and it is a pleasure to meet you. Welcome to Brazil! Seeing Akmin whispering in Tang Bao's ear, Perrod Collor smiled. (To be continued.) )
