Chapter 155 Lending a Couple of Dollars with a Leather Bag Company

Holding the results of the investigation, Li Lu was helpless, but he was not too indignant. The so-called pulling a hair and moving the whole body, and being able to find out that there is such a result in this part is already a manifestation of Wang Jiaqing's courage.

Is there anyone better than Li Lu, a person who has come over, who knows the internal diseases of the Guangming Factory?

After the transfer to the locality, without the support of the national defense manufacturing system, the Guangming Factory has only one result - accelerated death.

The general background is that the armed forces have reduced the scale of procurement, and at the same time, they must give full support to local economic construction.

On the fifth day after returning to the dry port, after dealing with the backlog of affairs, Li Lu finally had time to meet with Wade alone to discuss the specific details.

In the morning, the Asian Tiger tank combat capability summary meeting was to be held, and Li Lu came to the office an hour early and had a private conversation with Wade in his office.

Li Lu took out the list and handed it to Wade.

Wade first looked at the font and praised with a smile, "Your writing is beautiful." ”

After he started reading the content seriously, he couldn't laugh anymore.

When he raised his head and looked at Li Lu with a wry smile, Li Lu said, "I have Huaxia coins and no US dollars, so I hope to get your help with financial problems." ”

This time, Wade wanted to cry a little.

"How could I possibly agree to such a condition. Isn't your agent Jack holding the gold, and the gold payment is also possible. Wade said.

Li Lu spread his hands, "I just have a few gold bars, and they have long been used up." ”

"That can't be discussed." Wade also shrugged his shoulders as he learned from Li Lu.

Li Lu stood up and said, "Okay, then let's have a meeting." ”

"Please wait." Wade suddenly became anxious, stood up and motioned for Li Lu to sit down, he didn't expect Li Lu to come really, "Lu, you won't be serious, right?" ”

Li Lu sat down and said with a smile, "Since you can't talk about it, there's no need to waste time, do you say yes?" ”

Wade straightened his face and said, "You know, the 2S3 artillery is not as important to the American army as you think. We have a lot of information about this type of gun, but we don't have a complete finished product in hand. ”

"You're right."

Li Lu nodded in agreement, "Artillery is not very important, but it is not as unimportant as you said. Actually, I know, you know, what really mattered was the Soviets. ”

Wade's brows jumped invisibly, and the tightest secret hidden in his heart was spied on clearly, his eyes were a little flustered, but it was only a flash, and then it was as usual.

There is no doubt that Li Lu accurately pinched Wade's most fatal weakness.

"How do you know I need a few Soviets in particular?" Wade stared at Li Lu's eyes for a long time before deciding to spread out some and talk.

Li Lu smiled faintly, "Not only that, but I also know that if it were a few Soviet soldiers, you would need it even more." You don't dwell on how I know, you know I won't say. ”

At this time, they were not friends, but as if they were representatives of two factions, engaged in a serious negotiation activity. Clearly, for Wade, this negotiation is important. As for him, perhaps the biggest credit for this trip to China was not the Asian Tiger project, but the fact that he brought back a few Soviet soldiers.

When he learned that Li Lu had captured several Soviet soldiers who operated the 2S3 gun, he was ecstatic, and the first thing he did when he returned to the dry port was to use secret telegrams to contact the family leaders, and the order he got was to bring those Soviet soldiers back at all costs, and he could pay a price that he could bear.

2S3 artillery is no longer the most important target.

Wade pointed to the list and said, "Everything else can be solved, but there is really no way to solve it with precision machine tools." In fact, many of these things were clearly stipulated in the Batumi agreement that they could not be sold to China. I've agreed, but you can't make me pay for you. It simply doesn't work. ”

Li Lu said crisply, "Mr. Wade, the American Public Trading Company can sign a loan agreement. I'm not saying I don't want to spend money, but I don't have dollars right now and can only borrow from you. ”

"Volkswagen Trading Company? Are you talking about Jack's company? Wade asked, stunned slightly.

Li Lu nodded, "Yes." ”

Wade suddenly exploded and stood up suddenly, "God! That's a leather bag company! Not even a decent office! There are only two people in the whole company, Jack and his brother! ”

He looked at Li Lu incredulously, and the nameless fire in his heart suddenly rose. The various manufacturing machinery and equipment pulled out by Li Lu's list are worth more than three million US dollars, and there are also a number of various vehicles with a market value of almost one million US dollars.

Just with a leather bag company, I want to borrow five million dollars!

What could be more whimsical than this? Is there anything more infuriating and insulting than this?

If it weren't for the fact that Li Lu provided excellent translation services for their Asian Tiger tank project, and had the kindness to bring him back to Quansu and Quanwei on the battlefield, Wade would have turned his face on the spot.

Li Lu motioned for Wade to sit down and chat, and said, "There is a physical one, Jack opened an investment company on Wall Street, he seems to have bought some stocks and used these stocks as collateral, you can help me say a few words, I don't think the problem is big." ”

"Stocks? What stocks? Wade's anger was a little gone, and he was still disappointed, saying, "Since 1972, Wall Street's wounds haven't healed, and the Dow Jones index is generally sluggish, so your stock won't be of much use." ”

Li Lu smiled and said, "If you want me to take out the equivalent collateral, I can't take it out." Mr. Wade, we don't have to go around and talk about it, and we can't get any results. Some of the shares held by the public investment company may be only a dozen or two hundred thousand dollars, but if you are willing to guarantee it, I don't think there will be any problem in leveraging millions of dollars in loans. ”

Wade fell into deep thought, and what Li Lu said was not unreasonable. To put it mildly, if he is willing to do his best to help, and even set up a registered entity company, Li Lu doesn't need to worry about it. What's more, now Li Lu already has an investment company.

The first thing Jack did after returning to the United States was to plunge headlong into Wall Street and open a small investment company, using some connections through Wade as a condition to get a $50,000 credit loan as starting capital, and buy stocks according to Li Lu's instructions. The market capitalization of those stocks is already approaching $200,000.

If Wade knew that the starting capital of the so-called public investment company was a credit loan in the name of their Wade family, I am afraid that he would spit out a mouthful of old blood.

"Half a year, Mr. Wade, I only use half a year, and after half a year, I will return all the principal with interest." Li Lu looked at Wade and said with confidence.

Wade shook his head and smiled bitterly, sighed softly, and said slowly, "Obviously, you didn't give me a second choice, but I can't promise you right now." I'm trying to do it, and hopefully it's the message you want to hear. ”

He would never have believed that Li Lu had the ability to return five million dollars in half a year, which was five million dollars in the early eighties!

He didn't even ask what stocks Li Lu bought, he was not optimistic about the current New York stock market.

"As long as you're willing to help, I don't think it's a big problem." Li Lu said with a smile.

He obviously can't remember the specific movements of those stocks in the New York stock market in 1981, but he probably remembers that from 1981 until around 1985, the stock prices of technology companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange soared, especially biotechnology stocks.

So, his instructions to Jack were one sentence - buy all the biotech stocks.

He didn't know any specific details, so he could only use limited funds to cast the widest net, put it together, get rich overnight, and start all over again if he made a mistake.

Fortunately, the latest news from Jack shows that in just one month, the $50,000 invested has grown to nearly $200,000.

Li Lu had the confidence to talk to Wade about the purchase of machinery and equipment and vehicles, as for the loan, if he borrowed the money, he really didn't think about it in the future......
