Chapter 664: Lin Qiangsheng's financier
"Hey, they're in the bathroom, hurry up and turn on the bathroom monitor!" The agent staring at the monitor saw that the two people in the picture got up and went to the bathroom and hurriedly shouted, the listener quickly changed the headset to another machine, and debugged it while recognizing the sound, this is a wireless device, and the Americans have made this kind of thing very fine.
Ibeka looked at the monitor, and the two had already left, leaving only an empty bed on the screen. She was also annoyed in her heart, now they are going to be in trouble, the woman next to Lin Qiangsheng is an agent, she must be very familiar with this set of monitoring things, it seems that the difficulty coefficient of their work by Lin Qiangsheng's side will be doubled!
At this time, in Lin Qiangsheng's bathroom, Esther was carefully checking everywhere, she checked it, and found four or five monitors from the bathroom vents, soap boxes and other places, it seems that her agent skills are really not just based on a beautiful face!
Lin Qiangsheng took a closer look at these gadgets, which were wireless transmitters with power supplies, about half the size of a matchbox.
With a smile on her face, Esther stretched out her hand to show Lin Johnson her results, and the latter looked at the gadgets in surprise and gestured, meaning to ask her what to do with them.
The girl gave him a reassuring look, then went to the bathroom outside and threw all the gadgets down the toilet and flushed them out.
There was a loud noise in the monitor, and then there was no more movement, and the listener rubbed his aching ears and helplessly spread his hands to the others, and several agents looked at Ibeka in unison.
"Watch what I'm doing, keep working!" Ibeka said expressionlessly.
The agents had no choice but to continue to monitor, they had already expected that the future would not be easy.
Ibeka was also depressed, Lin Qiangsheng had never left the hotel for a few days, and had no contact with anyone except for a trip to the airport. Although he contacted many people by phone, it was all business matters, and they could find out the details of those people, and there was no other valuable information anymore.
She rubbed her forehead in anguish, this pointless surveillance was a waste of time, and Ibeka really didn't understand. Those above who are in power who give orders, since they do not believe in the Chinese, then simply do not sell them advanced military equipment, since they do not believe in what military trade they do, it is really a matter of breaking their legs under the order from above!
"Great, dear, you are truly my angel!" Lin Qiangsheng looked at Esther in surprise and exclaimed, he had never felt that this woman was so useful, he laughed: "Esther, you will be in charge of my security work in the future." I'm so relieved that you're here! ”
Esther looked at Lin Qiangsheng, a pair of misty eyes looked particularly mysterious and seductive under the steaming of the mist, she hooked Lin Qiangsheng's neck and said, "Lin, now we are safe!" ”
Lin Qiangsheng also gave her a princess hug, raised his legs and stepped into the wide bathtub, and the beauty's slippery body snuggled up.
As the warm water rises, the torrent in the jacuzzi rushes against the bodies of the two, and Asther stretches her body and lies on her back with happy moans. groaned. said: "Lin, I want to take a bubble bath." I'm so tired! ”
Early the next morning, Lin Johnson and Esther plus Ibecca and others got on the flight to New York, Lin Johnson did not choose Lyon's private jet again, this Frenchman deceived him, in fact, the expensive Gulfstream V plane was also rented by Lyon, how could a mercenary who was often in a tense environment and needed to run away at any time buy a plane. He would never do such a extravagant thing.
"How are you, John, we haven't seen each other for a long time." Mr. Lin met John Berg at the Morgan Building on Wall Street.
The financial investor is the founder of Vanguard Group, the world's largest family of no-fee funds and the second largest fund management company in the world.
At the top of the list is Franklin Templeton Fund Group, which is the world's largest publicly traded fund manager. The group has more than $483.5 billion in assets under management, but Vanguard is also good, and the two have a deep friendship and a long-term partnership.
In 1975, John Berg left Wellington College Asset Management to put his dream of a university fund company into practice, creating an independent fund house that puts the interests of investors first.
At that time, the company managed 11 funds with a net asset value of $1.8 billion, which shows that he is still doing a very good job in his old club.
He named the company "Vanguard" after the British General Nelson, who defeated Napoleon's French fleet in the Battle of the Nile Estuary, and commanded the flagship warship of the fleet, the "Vanguard".
Pioneer Group is headquartered in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, northwest of Philadelphia, and a model of the USS Pioneer is displayed at the entrance to its headquarters building, symbolizing the spirit of its flagship. The Vanguard Group is also modeled after the spirit of the flagship, and its buildings are named after other ships of the campaign, such as the Theseus, Alexander, and Magnificent, and the employees of the company are also referred to by the names of the crew.
It is evident from this that John Berg was a man of integrity, steadfastness, and loyalty, and that he admired the British Admiral Nelson.
This is the reason why Lin Johnson can trust Johnberg to take care of his tens of billions of funds, and it is very important and cautious to choose the right fund manager.
Wall Street is full of cunning, hypocrisy and deception, getting rich overnight abounds, and there are not a few who go bankrupt and liquidate overnight.
Now Vanguard Group manages more than $370 billion in assets around the world and provides services for more than 10 million investors.
John Berg looked at Lin Qiangsheng and said, "Lin, you are still so young, you Oriental people never seem to grow old!" ”
Lin Qiangsheng laughed, remembering that he always wore a fake beard a few years ago, and he said: "John tell me now, how much money can I take out to make waves in Japan?" ”
John Berg saw that there were two women beside Lin Qiangsheng, and there were four people in suits not far away, thinking that these people were Lin Qiangsheng's secretaries and bodyguards, and there was also a financial manager standing behind him.
Everyone was led into a quiet VIP room by the waiter, and Esther consciously sat a little further away and looked at Ibeca, who had no choice but to keep a distance.
John Berg opened the lockbox and took out a few documents, and said to Lin Qiangsheng seriously: "Your financial company and I have reviewed your current assets in various banks in Europe and the United States, and you currently have a total of funds equivalent to 36.884 billion US dollars, more than half of which are bonds and assets on the European and American stock markets. ”
Lin Qiangsheng thought for a while and said: "Time is waiting, we must immediately prepare to sell these bonds and stocks, and invest all the funds in the yen!" And I'm going to mortgage my companies, so I can calculate how much money I can borrow from the bank, and then I have about $30 billion, right? ”
Johnberg saw that Johnson Lin's idea of manipulating the yen exchange rate was so strong that he had to warn: "There will definitely be a loss from selling bonds and stocks in a short period of time!" ”
Lin Qiangsheng asked: "It's May now, you can slowly sell it before September, you won't lose much by selling tens of billions of dollars, my bonds and stocks are long-term investments, and the top 500 companies that the market is optimistic about have a huge volume, so it shouldn't have any impact!" ”
John Berg nodded and said, "Three months is enough, I can guarantee that your funds will be safely withdrawn from the financial market." ”
When he got here, he said to Lin Qiangsheng: "However, you want to use all the companies under your name as bank collateral, I don't agree with this idea, this is too risky, if something goes wrong in the middle, the bank is likely to force you, then you are in danger of completely losing these companies!" ”
John Berg proposed to Lin Qiangsheng and said: "I suggest that your Dongxing Electronics Company, Compaq Company and Dell Company are all very optimistic companies in the market, we can issue corporate bonds to raise funds, and we can also take out a few percent of the shares to the bank as a mortgage, so it is much safer!" ”
"I have always recommended to you, several of your companies are in good condition, the future prospects are also recognized by the market, if it is listed, it will have great potential, and it can also gather a huge amount of development funds, but unfortunately you have not agreed!"
"Going public? No, no, John, it's too troublesome to announce the company's finances when it goes public, and the company may get out of my control if it goes public, I don't want to be the prey of capital predators! Lin Qiangsheng shook his head again and again and said.
He thought about it, it is still dangerous for all enterprises to be mortgaged to banks, although Lin Qiangsheng knows the general trend of history, but it is inevitable that there will be small waves in the middle!
After thinking for a long time, he said to Johnberg: "Then let's issue bonds and pledge only part of the shares, how much money can be raised?" ”
John Berg nodded in agreement and said, "Those companies under your name, if you only mortgage 20% of the shares, plus the issuance of bonds, 10 billion US dollars should be no problem!" ”
"Smack!" Lin Qiangsheng clapped his hands and said with a smile: "John, do it like this!" You help me contact ******** Bank, Citibank, Bank of America, Bank of England, Bank of France, Deutsche Bank, the famous ones should be contacted to see if they are interested in my company shares, I want a lot of money, let's go play with the yen together, hahaha"
John Berg smiled and said, "We can also go directly to the Japanese, they have a lot of money, and they are worried that they have nowhere to spend it!" (To be continued.) )
