Rebirth of the Financial Overlord

America is a free and democratic country.

Media organizations have free speech and are qualified to supervise the right to criticize the government. From the most fair point of view, they are well-deserved uncrowned kings.

They are fearless and unaffected by any force. Anyone has the right to freedom of expression and democracy.

But actually. It's all nonsense.

The fact that the actual controller of the media organization must be an American has already explained everything. The so-called free public opinion can only be issued under the supervision and management review of the government. Temporary isolation and control, but was judged to be mentally ill and sent to a mental hospital.

Of course, Shen Jiannan knew about the US federal law on the media, but he didn't want 50% of News Corporation's shares in the first place. Murdoch will not give up the actual control of News Corporation, and it is impossible for the US government to let him, a Chinese, control the mouthpiece of public opinion.

But is it a business, asking for a price and paying back the money on the spot. When Murdoch mentioned legal terms, he was just looking for a reason to bargain.

clatter——

Masako Shinkawa got up slightly and filled Murdoch's teacup with tea. Shen Jiannan made a gesture of invitation and said.

I think Mr Murdoch you have misunderstood. I am not interested in the operation of News Corp. So, this problem is not a problem. You say it is.

Rupert Murdoch hesitated to answer, and looked seriously into Shen Jiannan's eyes. After confirming that Shen Jiannan was serious, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea.

Impossible. I will only give up 15% of the shares at most.

I can not interfere with your operations and decision-making rights, and only need to enjoy a little convenience from shareholders when needed.

Rupert Murdoch's eyes twinkled.

The deal would make sense if there were no interference with his absolute power, just a few exchanges.

How much News Corporation do you want to own?

Forty-five percent.

Impossible. At most, I will sell 20% of the shares.

Forty percent.

Twenty-five percent, that's my bottom line.

Bottom line!

The bottom line is something that is meant to be broken.

Shen Jiannan put down his teacup and spoke with an attitude that could not be refused.

Thirty percent.

Rupert Murdoch didn't answer directly, but held the teacup and meditated over and over again. Later, he looked straight into Shen Jiannan's eyes, as if he wanted to see what Shen Jiannan's purpose was.

After a long time, he opened his mouth to speak.

How many shares of Capital One can News Corp. hold?

Shen Jiannan smiled.

Communication between smart people often doesn't take much. Although Murdoch didn't say it clearly, Shen Jiannan couldn't understand what Murdoch meant.

Shen Jiannan stretched out a finger silently.

Murdoch frowned slightly, slightly dissatisfied.

Ten percent?

No, one percent.

What the hell. Murdoch quit.

He put the teacup heavily on the table, glared at Shen Jiannan angrily, his face was full of dissatisfaction, he was really fed up with the black heart of this guy in front of him. Given the market capitalization of News Corp., a 30% stake is worth nearly US$1.2 billion.

But Shen Jiannan is lucky, the 1.2 billion US dollars only gives him 1% of the shares of Capital One.

This can no longer be described as black.

Murdoch's face darkened, and his eyes blazed with anger. He felt that Shen Jiannan didn't want to cooperate with him at all, and this kind of low price was a naked insult. No matter how you say it, News Corporation is the largest media company in the world, but 30% of the shares can only replace 1% of Capital One's shares.

If it is known, it must not make people laugh to death.

After all, Murdoch is a famous figure, and he suppressed his anger.

Shen. I think you're joking, right?

No no, I'm serious.

Rupert Murdoch shrank his eyes and looked at Shen Jiannan coldly.

Then you are insulting me?

NONO. Mr. Murdoch, please don't get excited. I think you forgot that Capital One owns 15% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank.

Even so, that's still not enough.

What if Standard Chartered Bank goes public?

Murdoch's eyes moved.

Standard Chartered Bank is one of the Hong Kong dollar note-issuing banks. If it goes public, 15% of the shares will be worth 15% under capital operation. God knows how much it will be worth.

Shen Jiannan looked at Murdoch with a smile, and added to himself.

In the Japanese market, Capital One also owns First Industry Co., Ltd. In the European market, it owns 51% of Nanbo Bank's shares.

The First Industry Co., Ltd. now owns 51 percent of the shares of the Baltic Shipyard, 51 percent of the shares of the Volga Automobile Manufacturing Company, and 90 percent of the shares of the Neuer Nickel Company. shares.

First International Capital, in mainland China, also has 100% shares of Jiuding Group. Now, Jiuding Group is the largest beverage production company in China market. It has tens of thousands of acres of land use rights and has branches in Ukraine and Russia.

In Hong Kong. Capital One also owns Yunji Trading Company.

.

.

Plop, plop--

As Shen Jiannan talked about the asset size of Capital One, Murdoch felt a dry mouth.

He found that he really didn't seem to suffer.

To be precise, if these assets under Capital One are all together, then he will simply make a lot of money.

The Baltic Sea Shipyard is the largest military shipyard in northern Russia. It has dozens of military experts left by the former Soviet Union. Each of those people is a treasure.

Standard Chartered Bank is one of the Hong Kong dollar-issuing banks, with 15% of the shares, which are worth more than 700 million U.S. dollars. If it goes public, it may inflate to an astronomical figure.

Yunji Commercial Company has monopolized 70% of the fruit market in Hong Kong, and has a huge security system with thousands of occupational security teams.

First Industry Co., Ltd., Jiuding Group, Nanbo Bank.

In addition to these, Capital One also holds various asset positions worth hundreds of millions of dollars in global markets.

.

The anger on Murdoch's face was gone, replaced by doubts.

So many commercial companies, banks, and enterprises, if all of them are as Shen Jiannan said, the value of 1% of Capital One's shares has far exceeded the value of 30% of News Corporation's shares. So he didn't understand, with Shen Jiannan's shrewdness, why would he engage in such a loss-making business.

Could it be

Shen, I apologize for my attitude just now, and I hope you can forgive me. But I want to know why you did this.

Mr. Murdoch is being polite. You can only blame me for not speaking clearly just now. As for why I did this, you have already guessed.

.

Sure enough.

Looking at that young face, Murdoch has a feeling that he has lived on dogs all his life. When he was at this age, he seemed to be jealous and fighting on the street, but this guy in front of him has already embarked on a path he is trying to follow now.

Monster, how could there be such a monster in the world.

Even monsters like Rockefeller and JP Morgan probably don't have such ambitions at their age.

at the same time.

In California, USA, a flight from Moscow landed smoothly at Sacramento International Airport.

Soon, Marat Savage walked out of the airport hall with a leather bag and got into a taxi. Soon, the taxi drove into the bustling city center.

In Sacramento at night, the lights were everywhere, and the car stopped at the entrance of the Intercontinental Hotel. Savage dropped a hundred dollars at will, and strode into the hotel lobby amidst the flattery and thanks of the Mexican driver.

After opening the room and taking the room card, under the leadership of the hotel waiter, Savage arrived in his room not long after.

After taking a hot bath, the exhaustion of the cars and horses subsided. Savage picked up the phone and dialed a number. After chatting for a few words, he sat quietly in the living room and fell asleep with his eyes closed.

bang bang——

Suddenly there was a knock on the hotel door.

One long, two short and one long, Savage took out a pistol, wrapped himself in a towel, and leaned sideways behind the cat's eye.

It can be clearly seen from the cat's eyes that there is a blond woman standing outside the gate, about thirty years old, with a strange and puzzled look in her eyes. Based on her feeling, Savage judged that the other party was not dangerous.

Putting the pistol behind his back, Savage opened the closed door.

Hello. Is this Mr. Asuka?

I am?

Someone asked me to give it to you.

A paper file bag.

Savage took it and stroked it, making sure that it was probably what he wanted.

Thanks.

The person who asked me to deliver something told me that you would pay me a hundred dollars.

.

Damn dirt dog, what a jerk.

Savage reluctantly returned to the living room, took out a hundred dollars from his jacket, and watched the woman leave before he closed the door and opened the file bag.

A few photos and a thin document, the Asian woman looks about in her early twenties, tall and sexy, in Savage's eyes, she is a rare and peerless beauty.

After flipping through the photos a few times, he picked up the documents and looked at them.

Deng Wendi. Born in Sandong, Huaxia, he met the 50-year-old Kevin and his wife in Yaodu, and came to the United States with the help of Kevin and his wife. Now they are husband and wife with Kevin, they are studying at the University of California, and they live on Macon Street

After reading the information, Marat Savage smacked his lips.

Although the woman in the photo is a peerless mistake, his boss asked him to travel thousands of miles from Europe to the United States, and he had to use the intelligence network he left behind, which is simply too much.

Could it be that this is love?

My boss, I hope you will not be too sad, you probably have been greened.

It's a pity that Shen Jiannan doesn't have clairvoyance and mind-reading skills, otherwise he would definitely spray blood on the wall.

This fellow is smiling and chatting with Rupert Murdoch.

No one will despise more money.

So, no surprises.

After confirming that this powerful alliance will bring them rich returns, Murdoch and Shen Jiannan finalized a rough cooperation agreement on the spot. Murdoch exchanged 30% of News Corporation for 1% of Capital One.

Of course, finalizing the framework is only a temporary verbal agreement. Whether it can be reached specifically requires Capital One to prove one thing.

The tension between the two of them was gone, and suddenly, it was as if they had become old friends who had known each other for a long time, sitting together and talking happily.

Rupert. My friend, I don't think it will be long before you see what our cooperation will bring you in return.

The Finnish economy has serious problems.

.

If you are interested, you can also get a share here. Of course, I don't mind if you participate in your personal capacity.

.

Short sell a country's currency and defeat a country's central bank.

After chatting with Shen Jiannan again, Rupert Murdoch was stunned in shock. He finally understood why Shen Jiannan would cooperate with News Corporation at any cost.

But this kind of thing, even the world's number one hedge fund Jones Fund may not dare to do it. Finland is a country with complete sovereignty. Its economic strength is enough to rank among the top 20 in the world, and its per capita wealth has even reached the top five in the world. .

In such a country, some people actually say that they are going to attack their currency.

The dark eyes shone with strong confidence, looking at that face that was too young, Rupert Murdoch felt that the whole world was going crazy.

Shen. My friend, are you serious?
