Chapter 154: The Butterfly Effect
During the streaking period, I begged for a collection!
……
"Husband, why are you smiling so weirdly?" After Zhao Yazhi saw Xu Guanwu hang up the phone, she smiled strangely and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Wife, the fish is about to be bait." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.
Zhao Yazhi couldn't help but shake her head suspiciously when she heard this unclear sentence.
Xu Guanwu kissed her gently, "I'll explain to you another day, I'll go downstairs and wait for someone first." ”
……
After only waiting in the hotel lobby for more than ten minutes, he saw Lei Shidong hurriedly walk in, which was completely different from his previous calm and experienced general's style.
"Stanley, great, you're here." When Lei Shidong saw Xu Guanwu, he immediately walked over.
"Look at why you're so panicked, what's going on?" Xu Guanwu couldn't help but ask.
"She's found some of the evidence." Lei Shidong lowered his voice.
Xu Guanwu was taken aback, this was beyond his expectations, in that biography, this paragraph was not recorded. It only says that there is no danger and there is no danger, how can there be such a change?
"Weishenme is like this, aren't all your evidence hidden in the underground safe of the Horthville Bank? How did she find her? Xu Guanwu asked in surprise.
Lei Shidong's face couldn't help but change when he heard this, and he was about to ask Xu Guanwu how he knew where his secret was, but when he thought of his special ability, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
"Ever since you said you knew something about me last year, I was going to make another arrangement for it, and I didn't expect her to know about it." Lei Shidong said in frustration.
Xu Guanwu was also speechless in surprise, it turned out that everything was because of himself.
At the beginning, he told Lei Shidong that he was holding his pigtail, which was just a lie, but he didn't expect Lei Shidong to believe it, but now it is self-defeating, and it can really be said that he is lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot.
"Aren't you in danger now?" Xu Guanwu said depressedly.
"Yes, but she called me in the morning and said she wouldn't report me for the time being, but asked me to make it up to her." Lei Shidong said.
"She's blackmailing you?" Xu Guanwu was stunned for a moment, "Weishenme doesn't directly report you, so won't she inherit everything directly?" ”
"It's not that simple, she didn't find enough evidence, and if she denounced me, she wouldn't necessarily be able to convict me of offense. And once the lawsuit starts, it will take at least seven or eight years. She is now too old to support herself. Lei Shidong explained.
"So she wants to ask for money directly?" Xu Guanwu asked.
"Yes, she asked me for $30 million, and the previous thing was written off." Lei Shidong said.
"Thirty million dollars, that's not much." Xu Guanwu nodded, you must know that in order to deal with this matter in the later generations, Zuihou paid billions of dollars to solve it.
"Thirty million dollars, where do I have so much money?" Lei Shidong smiled bitterly, "If the embezzlement of the company's public funds is known by the shareholders, I will still go to jail." ”
"And what do you mean?" Xu Guanwu asked with some puzzlement.
"I want to borrow money from you to settle the matter." Lei Shidong said directly.
Call!
Xu Guanwu gasped, "Thirty million US dollars is not a small amount. ”
"Yes, but I can't really find a second person right now." Lei Shidong said distressedly.
Xu Guanwu also knows that although there are many rich people in the United States, most of them invest in stocks, funds, insurance, etc., and few people have tens of millions of cash.
If Lei Shidong wants to borrow money from others, it is really not easy.
Although he is the chairman of the National Entertainment Company, his entire company together is only about $200 million or $300 million, and where can he get tens of millions of dollars in cash.
"Stanley, do me a favor." Lei Shidong pleaded.
Now this Hong Kong man is his only hope.
"Okay, I'll help you, but you'll have to wait a few more days, and I'll invest all my box office proceeds in buying a house. If you want cash, you have to mortgage it to the bank. Xu Guanwu said.
“xiexie,xiexie! I knew you would help me. Lei Shidong said with emotion.
Xu Guanwu smiled, in the previous life, Lei Shidong had passed the test easily, but this time he was found to be the evidence, and it is estimated that it is also the butterfly effect caused by his own crossing.
"However, you have to make sure that after receiving the money, there will be absolutely no problem with this matter, and it will not be turned out again in the future?" Xu Guanwu confirmed again.
Speaking of this matter seriously, there are still some suspicions of violating the law, and Xu Guanwu does not want to be wanted by the American police in the future.
"I've consulted with a private lawyer, and if she signs an agreement not to pursue the case, then the matter will be written off." Lei Shidong said.
Xu Guanwu nodded, "Since this is the case, it is good to resolve this big problem as soon as possible, which will also be beneficial to your own future development." ”
"Yes, if this matter can be resolved safely, then I can rest easy in the future." Lei Shidong also said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll help you with this, but what's in it for me?" Xu Guanwu couldn't help but ask.
He suddenly remembered that if Lei Shidong's hidden danger was eliminated, then he would not have the bargaining chips to hold Lei Shidong hostage in the future.
"If the matter settles, I will force her to transfer her share of the equity to you at the cheapest price." Lei Shidong made a condition.
Xu Guanwu couldn't help but sneer, this is completely generous to others, Lei Shidong himself has no loss at all.
"The market value of your company is now larger, and at 250 million, I want 12% of your equity for the 30 million. In addition, your sister's part of the equity, you have to promise to transfer it to me at a price below the market value. Xu Guanwu said.
"It's impossible, if I lose 12% of the equity, I will lose the absolute controlling stake in National Entertainment, which will have a great impact on my position." Lei Shidong flatly refused.
"You can rest assured, although I own this 12% equity, I will never use its power and only enjoy the dividends it brings." Xu Guanwu promised, "And you also know that I have confidence in you, so I will not interfere in your business." ”
"Then you also have to make sure that you are on the same side as me on the board of directors, and if you want to sell the shares in the future, I have the right of first refusal." Lei Shidong put forward the condition again.
"Okay, but you also have to promise that you can't dilute my equity in the future, and you must notify me in advance of any action to finance expansion." Xu Guanwu said.
He didn't want to get the equity and be diluted within a year or two with only a little bit of the stake left.
"Okay." Lei Shidong thought for a long time, and finally nodded.
After Xu Guanwu received Lei Shidong's affirmative answer, he immediately called Liang Shuyi and asked her to contact the bank for the loan as soon as possible.
Liang Shuyi couldn't help but be startled when she heard Xu Guanwu say that she wanted to mortgage 20 commercial office buildings to the bank for loans, "Stanley, what big business must make money, you need to make such a big bet?!" ”
"No need to ask, let's arrange it as soon as possible. Send $30 million first, the sooner the better. Xu Guanwu said.
At the beginning, Xu Guanwu spent a full 300 million Hong Kong dollars to buy 20 commercial buildings, and if he mortgaged it to the bank, he could lend more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars.
Of course, if you have a good relationship with the bank, and the bank is confident in your assets, then it is not impossible to over-lend.
It's just that Xu Guanwu's previous development was all supported by cash, and he didn't deal with the bank at all, so he couldn't enjoy that treatment for the time being.
