"How much loan do you need?"

Fan Qianhai suddenly heard Hu Zhen's voice from behind, looked back, and sure enough, he saw that Hu Zhen had come to his side and was asking Zhong Ling.

Zhong Lingxing's eyebrows swept towards Hu Zhen and asked loudly, "Who are you?" ”

"He is, he is ......" Fan Qianhai was very embarrassed, not knowing whether he should leak Hu Zhen's identity to others.

"Don't you want to meet the boss here? I'm the majority shareholder here. Hu Zhen generously told Zhong Ling his identity.

"The largest shareholder?" Zhong Ling was stunned for a moment, and then asked straightforwardly: "Since you are a shareholder of a bank in the money lending business, how much loan can you give me?" ”

"Loans? Our bank hasn't opened yet, and I can't help it! Hu Zhen waved his hand and directly rejected Zhong Ling's loan request, and when Zhong Ling couldn't hide his disappointment, Hu Zhen changed his tone and asked: "But I have a way to save Antai Company, but can you call the shots in this matter?" ”

"Is there anything I can't do?"

"I like to be a major shareholder, can your Antai company be the largest shareholder for me?"

"Ah, you mean to buy my family's Antai Company?"

Hu Zhen nodded and said, "You can understand it this way!" ”

In 1876, the Englishman Wickham collected rubber seeds from the mouth of the Masson River in Brazil, transported them back to England for sowing, and tried them in Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and Singapore, all of which were successful. This was the beginning of the settlement of Brazilian rubber trees in the Far East. Since then, the cultivated rubber industry has developed very rapidly.

Zhong Ling's father, Zhong Xinghan, had a unique vision and was very optimistic about this industry, but his funds were insufficient, and he bought rubber raw materials in the Chinese circle, so Borneo, the main source of rubber raw materials, fell into trouble after it was completely controlled by the Dutch colonizers.

Historically, in 1888, the British Deng Lupu invented the pneumatic tire, and the tire industry achieved a leap forward in development, and at this time it was still 1886, most of the shrewd Chinese businessmen did not have Zhong Xinghan's advanced vision, and they were not optimistic about this forward-looking industrial product, so whether it was to find a loan or invite funds to invest in the Chinese businessmen, no one responded, and the Antai Rubber Factory had stopped production and could not pay employees for three months.

These days, Zhong Xinghan has been anxious, but he has tried his best, but there has been no improvement.

Unexpectedly, at noon on this day, Zhong Xinghan's daughter hurriedly ran back and said that someone was willing to invest in Antai Rubber Factory, which was really good news.

Zhong Xinghan almost rushed all the way to the preparatory office of Huihua Bank to meet Hu Zhen.

Hu Zhen saw Zhong Ling running in front of him with a tall middle-aged man who was haggard and thin, panting, it was estimated that he was Zhong Xinghan, so he asked, "You are Boss Zhong?" ”

"Yes, the contemptible person is Zhong Xinghan, and you are Boss Hu? Do you want to take a stake in Antai Rubber Factory? ”

"I do have the intention of investing in the rubber business, I don't know what the net asset value of Antai Rubber Factory is now?"

"This ......" Zhong Xinghan was embarrassed, the rubber business is a technical job, it was originally a foreigner, and the Chinese rarely got involved in it, he stepped in as a Chinese businessman, and was subject to foreigners everywhere, the technology was foreigner, and the sales objects were all foreigners, and now it is insolvent, where is there any net worth.

Zhong Xinghan suddenly went from the initial surprise to hesitation, but in order that his half-life efforts would not be in vain, he made a difficult decision in an instant, gritted his teeth and said: "I am willing to transfer all the shares of Antai Rubber Factory for one or two silvers, and I only ask Boss Hu to resume the production of Antai Rubber Factory and give more than 600 employees of Antai Rubber Factory a way out!" I, Zhong Xinghan, am willing to work for Boss Hu. ”

"Boss Zhong, don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to swallow your Antai Rubber Factory, so let's do it, no matter how many assets this Antai Rubber Factory has, I will pay 1.2 million taels of silver to buy 60% of the shares first, and inject patented technology, and when the business gets better in the future, Boss Zhong wants to take back the controlling stake and then invest in the repurchase of shares, is this okay? Is 1,200,000 taels enough? ”

Doesn't Hu Zhen, a traverser, understand the significance of rubber products to modern industry?

He thought that since he appeared in this time and space, he was determined not to let foreigners control this industry, and he must monopolize the rubber tire industry in the hands of the Chinese. Therefore, he doesn't mind that a Chinese entrepreneur with a forward-looking vision like Zhong Xinghan will get more benefits.

"One million and two thousand taels of silver? And the injection of patented technology? Enough, absolutely enough? Thinking that the rubber factory he had dedicated most of his life to could be revitalized again, Zhong Xinghan felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, but after thinking about it, he asked curiously: "Why?" I can't afford to be in vain! ”

"Why? It's because I'm optimistic that this rubber business will definitely make a lot of money, and I just asked someone to investigate Boss Zhong's personality, Boss Zhong is a trustworthy businessman, of course it's worth investing. ”

It turned out that Hu Zhen had arranged for Chen Zichao to do a background check on almost all the big Chinese businessmen in Nanyang before returning from Europe, Zhong Xinghan's business was not very big, but his business was different, of course, it also attracted Chen Zichao's attention, and recorded his situation in the investigation file. Hu Zhen only needed to call up Zhong Xinghan's information, and immediately understood that Zhong Xinghan was a reliable businessman.

Hu Zhen also has a strong self-confidence, he feels that with his current strength, no one dares to blackmail the real money he took out and escape. Therefore, in a very short period of time, he made the decision to make a strategic investment in Antai Rubber Factory, and decided to inject a patent for pneumatic rubber tires into Zhong Xinghan's rubber factory, and monopolized the production of tires in the world in the future.

"Okay, that's how it is arranged, I completely agree to accept Boss Hu's investment!" Zhong Xinghan wanted to resume rubber production as soon as possible and give the poor employees a chance to live, and he readily agreed to any arrangement made by Hu Zhen.

"Very well, that's it! This afternoon, I will arrange to send 200,000 taels of silver first, and another 1 million taels of silver will be sent over tomorrow, and Boss Zhong will concentrate on organizing the resumption of production as soon as possible! ”

"This ...... This...... I haven't signed a contract yet! Zhong Xinghan didn't expect that this ending would be better than his best estimate, and Hu Zhen sent the money directly without even talking about the details.

Hu Zhen laughed, pointed to Fan Qianhai who was standing next to him and said, "Okay, Boss Zhong is really a sincere and trustworthy businessman." It's okay, you can just talk to Manager Fan about the details of the contract, equity, patent injection, and how to manage it! ”

Zhong Ling, who rushed in fiercely just now and was clamoring for a loan, didn't expect such an ending, and looked at Hu Zhen with a wave of his hand, and said that he would inject 1.2 million taels of silver, and was stunned without saying a word. At this moment, he walked up, bowed to Hu Zhenyi and said, "Thank you, Mr. Hu, you saved our family and saved more than 600 workers in the entire Antai Company!" ”

"Saved your family? It's serious, it should be your perseverance and hard work that should be saved......" Hu Zhen wanted to say something to attract more people to follow him, but he saw a person outside the door hurriedly walking in, and whispered in Chen Zichao's ear, Chen Zichao's face suddenly changed and looked at Hu Zhen. Hu Zhen knew that Chen Zichao had something important to tell him, so he immediately changed his words and said: "Okay, let's stop here, Boss Zhong, Miss Zhong, you and Manager Fan talk slowly, I still have something to deal with, so I will retire!" ”

In addition to Hu Zhen, everyone else did not know that they had witnessed an important historical moment at this moment, starting from Hu Zhen's investment in Antai Company today, in the next 100 years, the world's rubber industry and tire industry were all monopolized in the hands of the Chinese, so that people all over the world really couldn't understand why the Chinese Zhong Xinghan and Hu Zhen behind Zhong Xinghan had such a forward-looking vision.

After entering the secret room, Chen Zichao hurriedly said to Hu Zhen: "Our people have already inquired about the time of the meeting of the major Chinese leaders, and it will be tomorrow night......

Hu Zhen was very happy when he heard this: "Ah, has the location been clear?" ”

"It has also been found out, this location is not in Singapore, but in a remote place in the Malay Peninsula, but we also got a very troublesome information, the news of this Chinese giant gathering has leaked, and the indigenous forces that are not right with the Chinese have prepared a team of people to try to surround the scene of the party, annihilate these Chinese leaders in one blow, and completely eradicate the top Chinese people in Nanyang!"

Hu Zhen was also shocked when he heard this, and he couldn't imagine that these top figures of the Nanyang Chinese were in danger of being wiped out: "Do the Chinese leaders who came to Singapore for the gathering know the plan of action of the indigenous forces? ”
