Chapter 147: Stabbed in the back
In addition, in addition to a few naturalized Mauri and a few British naturalized Chinese veterans, the rest of the mercenaries on the road are still veterans with Chinese nationality, and they represent the dignity and face of China in the Indian Ocean. Even in the face of the fact that the Chinese mercenaries were legally stationed at the Chabuldi Reef, the Mauri and the British would not dare to blatantly take any military action against your group of mercenaries.
Legally acquire the right to garrison the Zabuldi Reef, and then invest in reclamation projects, so that the mercenaries can truly own their own military bases. The area of reclamation does not need to be too large, dozens of acres to 100 acres is good, and then build boathouses around it, turning the real reef into a floating island town.
In the battle of the century with Taylor, he bet $10 billion, deducting tax profits, and at least $20 billion in receivables. Chen Chumo thought about it, and as for the funds for the construction of the reef, he did not take any of the money he won, and all of it was used to fund Jiang Fangzheng's reclamation and equipment for the army.
This is just a rough policy, as long as Jiang Fangzheng finds a talent who is good at dealing with the government, with a little patience, step by step, the seemingly fantastical idea is still very likely to come true!
On the fifth day after the end of the ring fight, Chen Chumo was almost recovered, so he decided to return to Los Angeles with Xiao Xiao. Li Zijun still has studies, so he and Liu Liu drove back to Los Angeles three days ago. At the invitation of Liu Qianxue, Xiao Xiao has been sightseeing with Yang Ming and his gang in the past few days.
Hearing that Chen Chumo was leaving, MGM General Manager George rushed to the private room to see Chen Chumo off in person.
"Mr. Daniel, here's your check." George handed a check to Chen Chumo.
The ticket amount is 831.47 million US dollars, with zero and whole amounts. 170 million US dollars, 7.3 times the odds, deducting 33% of personal income tax, Chen Chumo calculated, it happened to be the maximum amount of money he won from betting.
"What about the rest? The $10 billion bet is now my share to be taken! Chen Chumo saw that George only gave this check, and took the initiative to ask.
"Mr. Daniel, I'm sorry, I'm also acting on orders, please wait a moment!" George walked out of the room.
Damn, shouldn't you be a debtor and kill people? Anyway, I won billions of dollars for the casino, unloading the mill and killing the donkey, this is too dark, the greedy nature of the rich in China is no different from that of the rich in the United States!
"Mr. Daniel, this is the phone number of Miss He Qiong, President of MGM Huaxia, and she will make it clear to you about the $10 billion thing." Less than five minutes later, George reappeared in the room and handed his mobile phone to Chen Chumo.
After a brief greeting with He Qiong on the phone, Chen Chumo didn't have any ink, and directly asked about the $10 billion thing. I crushed all my vstart assets, risked nothing, and almost lost my life to win the game, you can't tell me that you didn't bet on me, right?
"Chu Mo, the matter of the $10 billion bet is more complicated, you heard that I will tell you slowly..."He Qiong said in a low voice.
"Sister Qiong, do you first answer whether I have bet the $10 billion for me?" Chen Chumo interrupted He Qiong and asked directly.
In terms of the current situation, Chen Chumo feels that it is obviously not the right way, and the $10 billion bet is very likely to come out of nowhere.
"It's a bet, but it's not $10 billion, it's $12 billion. But..."He Qiong slurred, and some words seemed difficult to say.
"But what? Sister Qiong, it doesn't hurt for you to say it directly, no matter how bad things are, I Chen Chumo has survived in the ring, and the matter about money is nothing. Chen Chumo saw that He Qiong couldn't speak for a long time, and he was relieved. He is a smart person, He Qiong's silence, the ins and outs of the matter have been guessed a few points.
"The Huaxia MGM Company I control can't come up with enough funds to bet, and the He family has a family relationship with Li Kai, Xu Heng, and Li Cheng, so I went to the three of them to help me figure out a way together. According to the agreement, each of the four of us contributed $3 billion, with a total of $12 billion to guarantee for you. Due to the rush of time, the money allocated by the three of them did not go to my account, but went directly to the MGM Casino in Las Vegas. He Qiong continued to whisper.
Well, there is no need for He Qiong to say the result, Chen Chumo has completely guessed what is going on now. It's very simple, that is, Li Kai and the three of them directly pressed the bet with their own reputation, and now they want to regret and not admit it when they win the money!
He Qiong and they are world friends, and they don't look up and see each other on weekdays, even if there is a phone recording or evidence that can prove that the money they bet on was borrowed by He Qiong from them, taking into account the faces between the wealthy families, they will definitely not go to court for Chen Chumo, an outsider, to tear their faces apart! The best way is to sacrifice Chen Chumo and let the matter go away.
"Sister Qiong, you guys are too unkind!" Chen Chumo said weakly. I wanted to lose my temper and scold Li Kai and his gang for being bloody, but he couldn't do it.
Mourning is more important than heart death, what I am talking about is the current Chen Chumo!
In Hong Kong, he met Li Kai, Li Cheng, and Xu Heng, and donated more than 10 billion yuan in cash to their charitable fund as soon as they met. The three of them found Weijin Finance, which was invested and established by Chen Chumo, and met Sima Wei, a financial genius, and then took advantage of Sima Wei's momentum to earn more than 40 billion yuan in the financial market in just 2 months. It stands to reason that they should be grateful to Chen Chumo for their smooth fortunes, but they didn't expect that not only did they not express any thanks, but they also calculated on Chen Chumo's head. This kind of ungrateful behavior, no matter who it happens to, must be angry, let alone Chen Chumo, a young and vigorous little cannonball?
However, thinking about it on the other hand, everything Li Kai and the three of them did was also reasonable. In the business field, there is a lot of deception and danger. They are businessmen, everything is in line with economic interests, and for the sake of money, family, friendship, and love can be sacrificed at any time in front of businessmen. In a sense, they are the most tenacious and terrifying creatures in the world, not to mention verbal agreements, even if there are contracts or legal constraints, they can still find ways to make these restraints an ornament! The only thing that can restrain them is the return of greater interests, and only in the face of greater interests, will they temporarily put away their tiger and wolf claws, pretend to compromise and harmless and docile appearances, wait for the time to make a profit, and then continue to enjoy their reckless life!
"Chu Mo, sister can't stand you. With this money of yours, I will try my best to help you mediate with Li Kai and them. He Qiong said.
How to mediate? Go cry and cry with them, or go to beg grandpa to sue grandma, so that Li Kai and they are willing to spit out the money back? He Qiong has been immersed in the business for many years, of course she would not think so naΓ―ve, she just comforted Chen Chumo.
"Everything is my fault, blame me! In order to apologize, I don't want any of my share, and I will return it to you in full. Next month, my Huaxia MGM company will be listed in Hong Kong, and I will transfer the money to you in half a year. He Qiong continued.
When it comes to the responsibility of tens of billions of dollars in bets, He Qiong is indeed inescapable, but why is Chen Chumo not responsible? To be held responsible, the first responsible person should be Chen Chumo! In the face of vital interests, Chen Chumo overestimated the ability of human beings to resist the temptation of money. Again, MGM Casino has its fair share of responsibility! When betting on the day, in order for George to be a witness for himself to bet on tens of billions of dollars, he kept an eye on it, and the call with He Qiong was completely in English, and he did not use Huaxia that George could not understand, so he didn't expect that in the end there was a situation that he didn't want to see.
He Qiong is a strong woman who does big things, and she has a strong pattern, and Chen Chumo always believes this. Now that the company is listed, it needs a fund to support the company's valuation, not to mention that it will not be able to give too much money to Chen Chumo for a while, with the friendship between Chen Chumo and He Qiong, even if Chen Chumo is willing to let Chen Chumo pay out of his pocket to fund her career development. But He Qiong doesn't seem to take this friendship as seriously as Chen Chumo, and would rather innocently sacrifice Chen Chumo's huge interests to protect his life, He Qiong is not willing to go to Li Kai and them to negotiate for gambling funds, Chen Chumo is cold!
"Sister Qiong, you deserve your share, don't give it to me. Nothing to do and hung up. Chen Chumo was disappointed in He Qiong and even in Hong Kong's wealthy circle, and ending the connection with the connection was the best relief for Chen Chumo.
It was really inconvenient to hold a check for several dollars, so Chen Chumo handed over the bank card on his body to George and asked him to transfer the money to the account.
"Hey, Li Kai?" After George left, Chen Chumo picked up the phone in the room and dialed Li Kai's mobile phone.
"You are?" Li Kai looked confused.
C: "Chen Chumo! β
L: "Chu Mo? Long time no see, how are you doing? The signal here is not good, I'll call you again when I go back, hang up first..."
It must be for the sake of gambling money, and I, Li Kai, will not give you a chance to speak. During the day, I said that the signal was not good, I couldn't hear it, and I couldn't get through when I turned off and went to bed at night, and how long it could be delayed, and you couldn't help me!
C: "Mr. Li, if you hang up the phone, we won't really be friends in the future, you have to think carefully!" β
L: "In the middle of the night, it was raining in Hong Kong, and there was a flash of thunder just now, but now it's fine, you can hear it clearly." Chu Mo, why did you suddenly think of calling me? β
C: "I want to ask Mr. Li to borrow some money, but I don't know if it's inconvenient." β
L: "How much?" The relationship between you and me, it doesn't matter to say it directly, as long as I Li Kai can take it, I will definitely send it to the house on time! β
C: "Not much, $15 billion." β
He Qiong and Li Kai bet a total of 12 billion US dollars in Chen Chumo's battle of the century, deducting tax profits, and made a total profit of 28.8 billion US dollars! The four of them shared it equally, and each of them received $7.2 billion!
