Chapter 1646 On the Harvesting Skills of ⑨ Vegetables

The next day, the meeting room of Starry Sky Hotel.

With the help of Wang Peng, Lu Zhou met the executives sent by the AIIB to Tiangong City to liquidate the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group. However, to his surprise, the person who came was actually an acquaintance of his—Zhong Ziyu, the former executive director of East Asia Power.

Probably last year, he was transferred from the board of directors of East Asia Power to the headquarters of the AIIB. When Lu Zhou saw him last time, he had already achieved the position of branch president.

Lu Zhou never thought that he was the person in charge of the bankruptcy and liquidation of the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group here?

By the way, is this a promotion or a demotion?

"Hello, Academician Lu," looking at Lu Zhou standing in the conference room, this elegant and easy-going man showed a smile on his face, and stretched out his right hand, "We meet again."

"Fortunate to meet, what a coincidence..." After shaking hands with him and letting go, Lu Zhou asked curiously, "By the way, why were you sent here?"

Shrugging his shoulders helplessly, Zhong Ziyu said: "There is no way, this matter is very important, involving tens of billions of bad debts, the level is too low to deal with it, and the level is too high and I am afraid that it will not be handled well, so just put me like this. The top and bottom are here."

Lu Zhou: "Then you have become the blame?"

"It's too much to blame, but if it is not handled well, it may be more difficult to go up in the future," Zhong Ziyu smiled, and continued, "But think about it from another angle, if you can handle this matter well , It is an opportunity for me. For example, the headquarters sent me here this time, and directly promoted my position from the manager of the regional branch to the manager of the Tiangong City branch, which is equivalent to jumping two levels directly. "

Lu Zhou: "I always thought that practitioners in the financial industry would consider risks more."

"Risks and opportunities coexist," Zhong Ziyu smiled, and continued, "Speaking of which, I heard about the Nanmen II Colonial Exploration Fund. Do you have anything you want to talk to me about?"

"There is indeed something I want to discuss with you," Lu Zhou said, making a gesture of please sit down, smiled and continued, "Let's sit down and talk."

With a hint of curiosity, Zhong Ziyu sat down at the conference table with his eyebrows raised, crossed his fingers on his knees, and waited quietly for Lu Zhou to speak.

To be honest, he still doesn't have a clear and feasible idea on how to solve the mess of the South Gate Second Colonial Exploration Group. After all, there are too many things involved in this thing, and it is far more than just a simple 10 billion credit points on the surface.

At present, the opinion of the acting mayor appointed by the Pan-Asian Cooperation to take over the city hall of Tiangong City is that Tiangong City needs to be rebuilt, so it is impossible to return the 5 billion funds that have already been transferred to the account of the city hall. At most, it can only be in the form of bonds return.

However, the credit of Tiangong City has gone bankrupt with the defeat of the civil war, and the bonds issued are no different from paper. When the acting mayor pats his ass and leaves, the next mayor may not admit it.

Unless, there is a Pan-Asian cooperation guarantee.

But Pan-Asia cooperation is not stupid, how could it be possible to make such a guarantee with no benefit at all!

Therefore, it is obviously impossible for Zhong Ziyu to agree to such a proposal.

In addition to the bad debts of the five billion credits, there is also the money that has been invested in the "Noah's Ark" project. Now that Gladstone has been arrested, the normal operations of the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group have come to a standstill, and the entire project has been completely suspended. According to the contract, they have to pay a dismantling fee for dismantling the "scrap iron" in the shipyard.

Unless there is someone who has been taken advantage of is willing to take over...

But this is even more unrealistic than the Pan-Asia Cooperation official standing up and covering the financial affairs of Tiangong City. Therefore, Zhong Ziyu just flirted with it in his heart, and had no hope of doing this at all.

However……

The first sentence that Lu Zhou spoke after sitting down made him completely stunned.

I saw this man known as the pinnacle of human mind take a sip of tea, and slowly throw out a proposal that he couldn't believe.

"I want to buy the South Gate II Colonial Exploration Group."

Sitting there in a daze for a long time, Zhong Ziyu immediately sat upright from the chair, looked at Lu Zhou and said.

"You mean... you plan to take over the project of the Nanmen II Colonial Exploration Foundation?"

If someone else said that to him, he would probably think it was a joke. But it was Lu Zhou who said this sentence, so he couldn't think of it as a joke.

After all, this guy is really rich, even if it is described as rich and powerful, it is not an exaggeration.

Looking at this guy speechlessly, Lu Zhou coughed lightly and said.

"...What is taking over, can't you change it to a better word?"

"I'm sorry, ahem... let's talk about this," Zhong Ziyu smiled awkwardly, and hastily continued, "Of course it's no problem, we have roughly estimated their assets, you only need to spend about 500 million credit points, You can buy the whole company. But..."

Lu Zhou: "Just?"

"It's just that I really don't recommend you to do this," Zhong Ziyu smiled bitterly, and continued, "After all, we can't cheat you... The Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Fund now has a large colonial ship that has not yet been built. In addition, there are only a lot of bad debts that can't be sorted out. Remember the 10 billion corporate bonds they issued before? More than half of them have been used up, and the rest is not enough to pay for it."

"That's it..." Hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou showed a pity expression on his face, "That's a pity, I plan to buy that starship and continue to build it."

Hearing this sentence, Zhong Ziyu was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly came back to his senses, and stood up with his hands on the conference table.

"Wait, you mean...you plan to continue the Noah's Ark project?"

"Yeah," Lu Zhou looked at him strangely, and continued, "Otherwise, what would I do if I bought that company?"

He has probably seen the starship design plan of the Nanmen II Colonial Exploration Foundation, and there are many things worth mentioning just by looking at the concept map.

After all, this thing is the masterpiece of academician Yang Chongping, a leading engineer in the Martian academic and industrial circles. Judging by Gladstone's attitude, it seems that he does not intend to fool around, just throw it there and wait for it to rust. It's a pity too.

"I thought you were trying to catch a leak," Zhong Ziyu smiled shyly, seeing Lu Zhou's speechless expression, he hurriedly continued, "If you are really optimistic about the 'Noah's Ark' project and plan to If it is finished... I can think of a way for you, which should save you a lot of money."

"Oh?" Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows and said with interest, "Tell me."

Although he is not very interested in money, he is still very interested in spending less money.

Seeing the interested expression on Lu Zhou's face, Zhong Ziyu smiled mysteriously, moved closer and whispered something to him.

After listening to this guy's whisper, Lu Zhou was silent for a while, then sighed.

"You guys in the banking industry are really talented at cutting leeks."

"How can you say that," Zhong Ziyu leaned back on the chair after a major incident, and said in a very unhappy mood, "This is just a reasonable use of rules and efficient allocation of social resources."
