Chapter 132: Dongying is a dog raised by Country M!
Chen Daojun didn't intend to hide such a bad thing, and on the way to Sumitomo Trading Company, he contacted Chen Yangzhe through Director Li and reported what happened here.
Because he has not fully investigated who it is, Chen Daojun is worried about startling the snake.
Therefore, he concealed the fact that the members of the family had harmed him.
Sure enough, after Chen Yangzhe heard what happened to Chen Daojun over there, although he was angry, he still controlled his emotions and said: "You are not very safe over there, you can return to China now, it doesn't matter, the follow-up will be handled by grandpa." ”
"No, I already have a way, now I just need to get your authorization, so that I can dispose of the people in this office at will, and you can send another sum of money from the country."
Chen Yangzhe pondered for a moment, since there was a problem with the people in the office, it would be good for Chen Daojun to straighten it out: "Yes, how much money is enough for you to use?" ”
"It's not much, 60 billion won is enough."
Chen Yangzhe was silent for a moment, as if he was measuring whether 60 billion was worth digging people.
In the development of the semiconductor industry, it is an indisputable fact that Shunyang Group started late and has a weak foundation.
Among them, senior talents in key technologies are the key to quickly shortening the gap, and he gritted his teeth when he thought that he had invested 600 billion yuan to enter the semiconductor industry.
"Okay, I'll give you 60 billion, pay attention to your own safety!"
"Don't worry!"
After ending the call with Chen Yangzhe, Kim Sung-cheol looked at him with amazement in his eyes.
60 billion won is not a small amount, and it is enough to buy a small company.
Chen Daojun and Chen Yangzhe, one dares to speak, the other dares to agree, they are not ordinary people.
He couldn't help but ask: "Young Master, there are a total of 60 real technicians in Sumitomo Trading Company's semiconductor company, so much money is used to poach people, will it be too much!" ”
"Who said I'm going to dig people?" Faced with the speculation of his subordinates, Chen Daojun asked rhetorically.
Kim Sung-chul was stunned.
Soon, Chen Daojun came to Sumitomo Trading.
Since they had already communicated with this side through the Shunyang Group, they did not encounter any obstacles, and they went to the office of Tomi Akiyama, chairman of Sumitomo Corporation.
Three days ago, since Sumitomo Corporation announced huge losses and fired Yasuo Hamanaka, the price of copper fell from $2,165 a tonne 24 hours ago to a two-year low of $1,860 a tonne, a jaw-dropping decline.
After the incident, Sumitomo Corporation's losses were about $1.9 billion at prices at the time.
In fiscal year 1995, Sumitomo's total global sales amounted to $146.8 billion.
However, sales and cash flow are two different things, and the business of many subsidiaries of trading companies has been greatly disrupted during this time.
In addition to the cash flow from investing in copper futures, Sumitomo Corporation had an emergency reserve of about $600 million.
It's a pity that some of this money has been spent before, and the rest has been invested in shorting Sakata before.
Akiyama is currently in a hurry.
Yasuo Hamanaka's operation on copper futures, in fact, he is in a state of acquiescence, otherwise such a large transaction, even if Yasuo Hamanaka is stubborn, it is impossible to do it by one person alone.
Later, the futures lost, and in desperation, he hinted that Hamanaka Taio would find a way to make money from the stock market to make up for the hole, as long as the losses were made up, they would have the confidence to respond in the face of media reports.
Who would have thought that a stock that is about to be delisted will be "shorted".
After finding out that Chen Daojun intervened, no one had been caught, and Akiyama Fu was also very helpless.
Seeing that the timing is not good, the Commodity Futures Commission of Country M initiated an investigation into the prohibition of futures manipulation under the U.S. Exchange Act.
After all, Dongying people are not afraid of heaven and earth, they are afraid that Daddy M will come to ask!
In order to cope with the investigation, he can only throw Yasuo Hamanaka out as a scapegoat.
The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the bears rushed to "make up" the sold stocks, but at present, in the market, stock holders understand the truth that there are more monks and less porridge, and they are reluctant to sell and hold.
As a result, the stock price continued to soar, and the stock price they wanted to "make up" became more and more expensive, which was a vicious circle for him, who was already tight on cash flow.
Fu Akiyama, who had just been furious because the tea made by his subordinates was too hot, heard the news of Shunyang Group's visit, and he originally wanted to refuse.
But on second thought, I asked the secretary to let them in.
After tidying up his clothes, Akiyama Fu sat upright, his face was not shocked, but the slight tremor of his fingers meant that his heart was not so calm.
Chen Daojun didn't expect to meet Akiyama Fu so smoothly.
It seems that the other party's situation is more difficult than he imagined.
Thinking of this, Chen Daojun looked at the short old man in the suit in front of him and smiled: "Hello, first time we met, I am Chen Daojun from Shunyang Group." ”
"It's really surprising to me, that guy Chen Yangzhe gave birth to a good grandson!"
"You're overrated!"
Akiyama Fu looked at the calm and confident Chen Daojun, and intuitively felt the other party's bearing, he had to admit that although this was an 18-year-old boy, he was already a very powerful character.
Pointing to their seats, he motioned for them to sit down: "So. . . Are you here today for something? ”
Chen Daojun sat calmly on the sofa, and when he heard Akiyama's inquiry, he looked around and said in a deep voice: "As the outside world says, Sumitomo Trading Company is in an extremely dangerous situation right now, and I am here for this matter. ”
When he came, he weighed in his heart that as a traditional chaebol, when he didn't fully grasp the crushing, it was better to take advantage of the situation to knock on the bamboo.
"Hahahaha, young man, our trading company is thriving, and it is simply nonsense to be in danger, what can you do?"
"No, Yasuo Hamanaka alone has already made Sumitomo Trading Company impossible to recover at any time, how can it be said that it is thriving? That's a huge loss, isn't it? Don't be in a hurry to refute me just yet! ”
Chen continued: "If the situation is not very critical, how could you preemptively fire Yasuo Hamanaka before the Commodity Futures Commission launched an investigation, isn't this a way to shirk responsibility?" ”
"Nonsense, the dismissal of Yasuo Hamanaka is just a normal operation, this is Tokyo, not H City, even if you are Chen Yangzhe's grandson, you can't be so open-mouthed!" Akiyama Tomi snorted coldly, he didn't allow anyone to say anything unfavorable to the trading company in front of him.
Chen Daojun was not stunned at all, and said with a smile: "Do you know in your own heart that I came here today just for one thing, that is, to talk about a business with you, a win-win business!" ”
Akiyama Fumi couldn't scare him, and looked at him with a solemn face: "What business do you want to do?" ”
"I know that the trading company has invested money in shorting, and Sakata's stock has been rising, so you should lose a lot." Chen Daojun pointed to himself: "If you want stocks that you can't buy, I have them here!" ”
Akiyama Fu opened his mouth to refute, but he couldn't speak.
Since the other party said this kind of thing with confidence, it is obvious that it has done a full investigation, and there is no point in saying things like quibbles.
He knew how difficult it was to buy stocks in the market now, and in the face of the olive branch handed by Chen Daojun, he was a little confused about the other party's path: "How many do you have?" ”
"As much as you want, I have as much as I want."
"You guy." Akiyama Fu narrowed his eyes, the other party was obviously prepared, as long as the position can be successfully closed, the trading company can revitalize some funds, and by the way, he can also send someone to take the money to lobby politicians in the beautiful country and withdraw the investigation of the trading company.
He struggled to control the emotions in his heart: "What do you want? ”
Chen Daojun raised his arms on the ground: "In view of the recent changes in the market, our Shunyang Group is studying important semiconductor topics, and we would like to invite the Sumitomo Semiconductor technical expert group to travel to the past, exchange experiences by the way, and invite some people to come over, it doesn't matter!" ”
Akiyama's face is cloudy, he doesn't know, what kind of travel, it's clear that he just wants to dig people, it's not a meat bun to beat a dog, there is no return!
But the temptation of the stock is really too great, if it's just a few technicians, send some low-end guys over, thinking of this, he said, "Yes, I will let the following arrange five people to go over!" ”
"How is five enough? We will send technical experts by name, at least more than one-third of Sumitomo Semiconductor's personnel. ”
Jin Chengzhe looked at him with some surprise, on the way he remembered that Chen Daojun said that he didn't plan to dig people, ...... this?
Akiyama's expression froze.
Although the efficiency of semiconductor companies is not good, the technical experts who have been trained for decades are all baby bumps, and they want one-third of them as soon as they open their mouths, which is simply a robbery while the fire is burning.
When Akiyama saw Chen Daojun's grinning appearance, he hated itchy, and he said with some annoyance: "One-third! Are you kidding me? ”
"Yes, it would be better if there were more than half of them!"
"It's impossible!" Akiyama Fuban made a face and stubbornly said that there was no room for negotiation.
Chen Daojun carefully distinguished his expression, and after confirming the other party's attitude, he stood up and paced.
Akiyama must be in great need of stocks, but with the current situation, Sumitomo Trading Co., Ltd. wants a lot of stocks, and other institutions that come to short like hungry wolves are too late to absorb chips, where will they free up stocks to sell to him, who will not be able to get along with the money in their pockets?
The guy in front of him is worthy of being the head of the chaebol, and in such a dangerous situation, he can still insist on not getting rid of the technicians.
He threw out a question: "If you can't get the stock in my hand, at the current rate of rise in Sakata, you will have to increase the cost of 'covering' by more than 15% every day that passes, is it really okay?" ”
"That has nothing to do with you, I can consider other conditions if you mention them, but this one can't do it!" Akiyama Fu glared and replied coldly.
"Heh, then we have nothing to talk about, let's go!"
After Chen Daojun finished speaking, he turned around and walked out, and Kim Sung-chul hurriedly followed closely behind.
Akiyama Fu found that when Chen Daojun walked to the door, he turned around again.
Akiyama Fu sneered disdainfully: "Young people, business cooperation must require patience, and if you want to talk about cooperation, you can talk about it." ”
When he thought that the other party just wanted to put pressure on him, and then continued to put forward conditions.
Chen Daojun said meaningfully: "No, my patience has run out, next time, it won't be today's price." ”
After Chen Daojun left, Akiyama Fu frowned and stood by the window for a while, thinking for a long time.
He called his subordinates: "Yasuo Hamanaka, this guy, can't stay, find a way to kill him immediately!"
"Hey!"
The next day, New York, Manhattan, Wall Street.
In the towering office building, Tiger Fund manager Robertson warmly greeted Chen Daojun and his party.
"Chen, my old friend, have you been having financial difficulties lately?"
Chen Daojun didn't expect that after Robertson met and greeted him, the first thing he asked turned out to be this.
He touched his nose a little embarrassed: "I was really nervous about investing before, but now it's no problem at all." ”
"That's good, as long as you have money. However, why do you want to come to the fund company, wouldn't it be better to go to the hotel and chat while eating? ”
Robertson breathed a sigh of relief, many of his customers have redeemed a lot of funds recently, and he is afraid that Chen Daojun, a big customer, will have a problem with his funds.
Chen Daojun explained a little, and claimed that he might add hundreds of millions of funds to continue to put him here in the near future, and Robertson smiled happily.
After all, the larger the amount of funds controlled by his fund, the stronger his ability to resist risks in investment.
"Chen, I recently bought a new yacht, I'll organize a yacht party tomorrow night, there are a lot of activities."
Looking at Robertson's frowning appearance, Chen Daojun could think of how moisturized he had been in the past few years.
But Chen Daojun came all the way over, but it was for a big thing.
In Dongying, Chen Daojun is playing away, and he seems a little powerless in the face of Sumitomo, who is the head snake of the land.
Since the other party does not play cards according to the routine and plays the next work, Chen Daojun did not interrupt it.
Isn't Dongying a dog raised by country M?
In that case, then find its owner to clean him up.
Chen Daojun asked in a deep voice: "You are a fund, and your connections on Wall Street must be good, I want to know some people." ”
Robertson nodded: "You are the right person, the whole Wall Street, you can't imagine, how many people do financial management with me, dealing with customers and maintaining relationships is one of our important jobs, who do you want to take advantage of?" ”
"The senior management of the Commodity Futures Commission of Country M, do you know anyone, you have to have a good relationship!"
"Yes, what are you going to do, it can't be a crime, right?" Robertson looked vigilant, as an intermediary, he had to consider the probability of success of Chen Daojun's request, and if he was suspected of breaking the law or not grasping something, he would rather not do it.
Chen Daojun didn't hide it: "I heard that they are investigating the case of Sumitomo Trading's manipulation of copper futures, I want the senior person in charge of this case to do a favor, if you can help with it, you need my donation or something, I can give you double the return immediately on the day you complete it!" ”
Robertson thought for a while, then said with a smile: "I said, do you want to help Sumitomo say hello and settle this matter secretly?" This case has made a lot of noise, and it is difficult to avoid the eyes and ears of the public! ”
"Nope! I want this case to be completed as an ironclad case and severely punish the Sumitomo Group. ”
"It's a bit difficult, after all, it's Sumitomo Trading, you know, they're going to send people to lobby."
Chen Daojun smiled slightly, this guy, when did he learn the habits of foreign countries.
"I believe you must have a way, it's inconvenient for me, including my family, to come forward, so I'll leave this matter to you!"
"Let me think about it, this matter is not in a hurry to finish today!"
"You can do your best, and feel free to tell me if you have any requirements!" Chen Daojun stared at Robertson: "I believe in you!" ”
Two days later, when Chen Daojun's chartered plane landed at the Tokyo airport, the London copper futures incident had been completely exposed.
At the Los Angeles Financial Summit, Tarbert, chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) of Country M, said publicly in an interview with the media.
He has always wanted to see a normal and orderly financial order in the futures market, but it often backfires, and Sumitomo Corporation violates the prohibition of manipulation in the American Exchange Act, and must compensate all ordinary investors for the losses caused, and the amount of compensation may exceed 500 million US dollars!
The global financial industry is in an uproar, and if the fine against Sumitomo Corporation is true, it is the largest civil fine ever imposed by the government of country M.
The ensuing panic selling of copper futures widened Sumitomo Corporation's long position losses to $4 billion.
For a time, Sumitomo Corporation's credit rating fell sharply and was in jeopardy.
