Chapter 1060: Hugging the thighs
The restaurant's dΓ©cor is mainly white, with brown-red wooden floors on the floor.
The extra lights were turned off, except for a table in the center of the dining room, which was still on.
In the middle of the square dining table, there is a large antique bowl from the Qing Dynasty, and the lotus inside is full of pale pink flowers.
The new knives and forks collide with the new dishes with a crisp clanging sound, and the waiters, dressed in clean and tidy clothes, stand by and wait for the arrangement.
Fat Ding and Little Barry were playing in the garden outside, and Han Qianshan bought more than 2,400 square meters of land in downtown Washington, D.C., to build this restaurant......
"That's right.
At a party in France, I happened to meet him.
I thought Mr. Paulson had a good idea about the hedge fund business, so I bought a 40 percent stake in his company. β
Since investing in Paulson's hedge fund, Han Xuan has been ignoring it, just letting Paulson explore his own development and give a little advice when appropriate.
Unexpectedly, Edward also set his sights on the small hedge fund company, and at this moment he asked Han Xuan: "I don't know if you have the idea of changing that part of the shares?"
I can buy your shares at a market value of $150 million. β
John Paulson has attracted many investors in the past two years by playing the sign of Han Xuan, and now manages more than $700 million in assets, but the return rate is average, which is not too good among similar hedge fund companies.
The market value is full, and the maximum is 60 million US dollars, and Edward Rothschild can give 150 million, which is already a very generous approach.
But the future "Wall Street empty god" was prepared by Han Xuan for the Internet bubble crisis and the future subprime mortgage crisis.
Talents are rare, and talents with ideas and keen vision are even more difficult, after thinking for a while, Han Xuan shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't plan to sell it for the time being."
I bought those shares for $6 million at the time, and now you want to buy it for $60 million, and it's multiplied tenfold in just two years, which shows that the company has a lot of potential.
And I promised Paulson that I would invest $500 million in this company over three years, and I've already bought almost $180 million in funds, and I'm going to invest again this year......"
Hearing that Han Xuan clearly rejected him, Edward's expression was slightly regretful.
Since Han Xuan's industry has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, the Rothschild family has even invited people to study his industrial structure to try to find out the reason for such an astonishing development speed.
The more I researched, the more I was shocked, those unrelated companies have actually made certain achievements in their respective fields, and with the improvement of profitability, there is a trend of growing stronger.
Jacob Rothschild, now in power of the Rothschilds, could hardly believe that this was true.
Because so far, except for those companies that need to be developed for a long time, all the companies in Hanxuan are making money!
That can only show that this Chinese teenager has a really good eye, and he can't think of any other reason besides this reason.
During the analysis, Edward unexpectedly noticed this hedge fund company that was not valued by Han Xuan, but had a super high development speed, and this time he had the idea of trying it out, and wanted to pick up the leak from Han Xuan.
But that company wasn't his main purpose for coming, and it didn't matter if he didn't get a stake in Paulson's hedge fund.
Finally, Edward said, "My family is currently preparing to establish a bank in the United States, mainly in the credit business.
Rothschild banks have a good reputation in Europe, but in the United States, those previously opened banks only manage about $1.7 billion in assets.
I found that you have a strong interest in the banking industry in the past few years, so I would like to invite you to invest.
I believe that the two sides should work together to achieve good results, what do you think? β
Han Xuan remained silent.
Leaning slightly sideways, he asked the waiter to take away the plate with appetizing caviar and replace it with Russian-style borscht, and when he picked up the new spoon, he thought: "What is wrong with investing, you have to jump into the fire pit of the credit bank."
In another ten years, when a subprime mortgage crisis comes, I am afraid that I will be able to cry. β
It's a crisis for most, but if it's predicted accurately, it can turn into an unprecedented feast of wealth.
Crisis and opportunity coexist, and Paulson managed to reap billions of dollars from them in his previous life.
Edward saw Han Xuan nodding at this moment, thinking that he was interested in his proposal, but he heard Han Xuan say: "You can invest in Rothschild Bank, but it is not a new one."
I remember that the old bank was mainly engaged in mergers and acquisitions, that is, helping large enterprises to acquire and merge with other enterprises, or to restructure the industrial structure, right?
If you want East West Bank to invest, I can invest in the bank that does the M&A. business.
There may be no way to exchange shares, because I have already lost more than half of the shares of East West Bank because of the acquisition of dozens of small and medium-sized banks, and I will soon be unable to control it anymore, and I hope to ...... in the form of cash."
Chairman Greenspan, who was sitting quietly eating on the sidelines, heard something unusual from it.
Compared with banks that carry out restructuring and mergers and acquisitions, credit banks obviously make more profits, but Han Xuan seems to be afraid of this thing.
He interjected and asked, "Do you think credit is risky?" β
"As a banker, no matter what business you are engaged in, there are risks.
I don't know much about credit, so I don't want to get involved, you have to worry about it, Mr. Greenspan.
In the next decade or two, the U.S. economy will definitely develop in a good direction, and my East West Bank does not have a department engaged in restructuring and M&A.
That's why I wanted to invest in that bank, and as far as I know, Rothschild Bank has done a very good job of this, and it can be ranked in the top 10 ...... in the world."
Han Xuan lied, no one could see it except Anya, he had been specially trained on how to lie, and even some micro-expressions were controlled.
Greenspan didn't go on on the subject, and he thought he was overthinking.
When it comes to the operation of the world economic system, he, the current chairman of the Federal Savings Board of the United States, is full of confidence.
Now that there is really no problem with credit, and there is no precursor to a crisis, how does he know that Han Xuan is already worried about what will happen more than ten years later......
Seeing that Edward was quite satisfied with East West Bank's stake in the old bank, Greenspan changed the subject and said, "The seafood soup is great.
I've never had a soup with this taste in other restaurants. β
"The chef is from Huaxia.
You may not be used to eating Chinese food, but the Chinese soup is really delicious......"
There was almost no pause during the meal.
Edward has been trying to invest in Han Xuan's property, which gives him the strange feeling that the Rothschilds want to hug his thighs and hitchhike.
After agreeing to some investment matters, the leader of the second-generation members of the Rothschild family, received a phone call after eating dessert and left early, probably deliberately leaving time to give Han Xuan and Greenspan a chance to talk alone.
Greenspan smiled, apologized again, and said:
"His father was friends with me.
Yesterday Edward came to my house as a guest, and heard from my wife that I was going to meet you today, and offered to come with me, and I could not refuse.
You don't have to do anything out of your way to think about my feelings, business is business.
If you are not satisfied with the conditions, you can also refuse him. β
"It's okay, I'm honestly curious about the Rothschilds."
"It used to be brilliant, but now it doesn't.
It was a fool's decision that a competent heir did not show up, and that they did not let go of outsiders to manage.
Let's talk about it, what role do you think the United States should play in the process of economic globalization in the future?
I've been holding this question for a long time, and it can even influence the Fed's decision-making ......"
