Chapter 1648 Taking over the Ark
The meeting room of Star Hotel.
Zhong Ziyu, who came back from the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group Building, smiled and put a copy of the processing results in front of Lu Zhou.
"It has been negotiated. Fuxing Mining Company will recover all debts at a price of 500 million credits, including ours and those in the hands of individual investors. Then we only need to cooperate with Pan Asia for the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group Pay a fine of 100 million credits, and you can buy the entire business for a symbolic price of 1 credit."
"As for the future, whether you plan to directly merge Fuxing Mining into Xingkong Technology, or carry out mergers and reorganizations through other methods, it is up to you."
"I still don't understand," Lu Zhou glanced at the document on the table, then looked at the smiling Zhong Ziyu, and said in a slightly confused tone, "How do you plan to solve the problems of the AIIB and other banks?" Bad debts? Or... what good will it do for you?"
"Bad debt? I don't think this is a bad debt. It can only be regarded as a temporary loss at most." Zhong Ziyu smiled and continued, "You underestimated your own influence. If you were to build this starship... so A high-quality project, we even plan to invest a little more. Of course, the premise is after seeing certain results. But I believe this should be easy for you.”
Lu Zhou turned his attention to the contract in his hand.
On the last line of the third page of the contract, there is a supplementary agreement on the debt of 10 billion credits. After completing the acquisition of Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Group, if there are still some creditors who are unwilling to give up their claims, these claims still have legal effects and will be transferred to the "Noah's Ark" in a certain proportion.
However, they will no longer have the right to dispose of these assets.
If Fuxing Mining Company really sells the "Noah's Ark" as scrap iron as it claims, the corporate bonds with a face value of one million may be allocated one or two hundred credit points.
Of course, if Fuxing Mining Company is acquired by another company that intends to continue to complete the "Noah's Ark" project, and the entire plan to colonize South Gate II is finally completed...
Many people will go crazy because of this.
"In short, you don't have to worry about money. I estimate it is 500 million, and you may not even spend 300 million in the end." Zhong Ziyu smiled and continued, "At least we at the AIIB are willing to continue to hold these companies Debt, we believe that the unfinished 'Noah's Ark' project will flourish in a new form in your hands."
Lu Zhou: "I don't care, but if you do this...you won't be afraid that your store will be smashed."
Especially those who cut their meat and sold their corporate bonds.
When they found out that the things they had just sold that were regarded as waste paper had been raised again and returned to the ceiling, it would be easy if their mentality collapsed...
"Investment itself is something you are willing to bet on. How can there be a 100% profitable project? If there is one, please introduce it to me." Zhong Ziyu coughed lightly, and continued with the same expression on his face, "Just like I said , of course you can kindly tell them directly that you intend to buy the Noah's Ark and transform it into a faster and stronger colony ship to take our civilization to more distant worlds. But, you know what that means ?"
"I can tell you, this means that those corporate debts in their hands will no longer be worthless waste paper from the moment you declare. And the decision you make out of good faith will make you You have to spend hundreds of times the price to buy such a company that was about to go bankrupt."
Looking at the thoughtful Lu Zhou, he paused and continued.
"Besides, haven't you noticed?"
Lu Zhou: "What did you find?"
"This is a result that satisfies everyone." Zhong Ziyu shrugged and continued, "People can finally go home without setting up tents and camping on the street, Tiangong City has also restored order without sending a group of special police Stand there stupidly with them. There are also institutions including the AIIB... losses are not terrible, but what is terrible is losing everything.”
Maybe, in the end, they can still make a small profit because of the price difference when trading these corporate bonds.
"It's up to you," Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "I don't care about your things, but the Noah's Ark project, I will finish it."
At worst, on the way to Tiancang 5, stop by Nanmen 2.
Anyway, with the warp speed technology he has mastered now, it is not particularly difficult to go to these two places.
"Well, please." Looking at Lu Zhou sitting behind the desk, Zhong Ziyu joked, "My future is all on your shoulders."
...
As Zhong Ziyu said, faced with this fairly good contract, almost all investors chose to stop losses and sold their corporate bonds to Fuxing Mining Company in a certain proportion.
After the news that Nanmen II Colonial Exploration Group was acquired by Fuxing Mining Company was released, this time bomb buried in the pan-Asian and even global financial circles was finally completely dismantled.
According to Zhong Ziyu, the head office was very satisfied with his work, and even asked him to send greetings to Lu Zhou - when Lu Zhou returned to Earth, he would definitely visit him in person.
Lu Zhou just smiled at this and didn't say much.
He probably won't go back for a while until the first full warp drive is done.
On the other hand, the seminar on Europa's development plan has finally come to an end due to the high-level change of the main investor Tiangong City Hall.
Although Lu Zhou didn't participate in the second half of the meeting, I heard that they quarreled quite fiercely at the meeting, and even almost raised their hands several times.
When talking about this matter, Professor Wu Qinglai, who is also from the earth academic circle like Lu Zhou, had a contemptuous expression throughout the whole process, as if he was discussing a group of barbarians who don't understand etiquette.
On the day when the symposium was announced to be over, due to lack of funds, the final dinner was rather sloppy. Just after eight o'clock, people left the venue one after another with a lack of interest.
After eating 80% full at the dinner, Lu Zhou was about to return to his room, but at this moment, Professor Wu Qinglai suddenly followed up from behind, and said with a friendly smile.
"That... Academician Lu."
Lu Zhou: "What's wrong?"
"What date do you plan to return to Earth?"
Looking at him strangely, Lu Zhou replied casually: "I still have something to do, I plan to go back after a while, what's the matter?"
Wu Qinglai said hastily: "No, I just care about you."
Seeing this guy faltering, Lu Zhou sighed and said impatiently.
"Say something quickly, don't talk nonsense."
Seeing that Lu Zhou had seen through his thoughts, Wu Qinglai scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, coughed dryly and said, "That...is like this, didn't I buy some boat tickets a while ago?"
The so-called boat ticket refers to the boat ticket of Noah's Ark. Some time ago, because of being hyped, he was often embarrassed about his investment vision.
Lu Zhou froze slightly: "...you haven't sold yet?"
Wu Qinglai said with embarrassment: "I thought it could still go up."
Lu Zhou: "..."
Wu Qinglai said in a low voice: "I just want to ask, do you have any inside information... Does the AIIB plan to take back the Noah's Ark ticket? Or is there any... compensation plan?"
Hearing this sentence, the expression on Lu Zhou's face became even more strange. After staring at him for a long time, he suddenly said.
"Why do you think I have inside information?"
Wu Qinglai's expression was a little awkward, he coughed dryly and continued, "Didn't the president of the Tiangong branch of the AIIB come to the Starry Sky Hotel yesterday? I happened to see it..."
"And you saw him come into my room?"
Seeing the half-smile expression on Lu Zhou's face, Wu Qinglai quickly waved his hands.
"I swear! I definitely didn't mean to see it! It just happened to—"
"There's no plan, just keep it if you like, and it's good as a lesson."
Too lazy to worry about those trivial matters, after dropping this sentence, Lu Zhou left the frowning Professor Wu Qinglai on the spot, and walked slowly towards the elevator.
Lu Zhou felt that what he hinted was obvious enough.
As for whether you can seize the opportunity...
It's all up to him.
