Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 736 Persuading people to move

He didn't say it clearly, but here's a piece of news that hasn't been confirmed yet. The assistant handed over a fax of a newspaper page.

Tang Huan glanced at the gossip from Malaysia. It said: Qiu Deba’s illegal loan of 300 million pounds from the National Bank of Brunei was exposed. The Sultan of Brunei put his eldest son under house arrest and told him to hurry up. Pay back the money.

300 million pounds? Real or fake! Tang Huan took a breath, and then ordered: Respond to Qiu Deba first, I am busy entertaining Charles these two days, and I will have time to meet later. You take advantage of this gap , investigate the situation of Qiu Deba.

Because Queen Elizabeth II's ostentation is too big, it is not an ordinary trouble to visit each place, so some foreign affairs activities are handed over to Crown Prince Charles to take charge.

This time, the British royal family traveled all the way from Western Europe to East Asia. Naturally, they had to make full use of the itinerary. Charles and his wife had an arrangement to visit Japan.

Coincidentally, Tang Huan was also planning to go to Japan next.

California has approved the California high-speed rail bill, and Japan is becoming more and more interested in this big business. At the opening ceremony of the Asian Games, Japanese Prime Minister Yasuhiro Nakasone invited the richest man to visit Japan officially.

Charles, who is used to enjoying himself, plans to go to Japan together in Tang Huan's Silicon Valley One. Although it's a bit out of order, who made this prince a bit out of tune.

Tang Huan's side had just arranged the team related to the California high-speed rail to coordinate with the trip to Japan, and the investigation of Qiu Deba on the Singapore-Malaysian side had results.

can only say. It is not without reason.

Khoo Teck Puat, who founded the Bank of Malaysia, was kicked out of Malaysia in the 1960s, but he established a banking network in Brunei that can continue to support the expansion of his business kingdom.

The way Qiu Deba took was the 28th Brunei Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddin III, who is famous for his love of literature. During his reign, he actively developed the local economy of Brunei, which was quite effective. reputation.

However, at the beginning of September this year, Omar Ali Saifuddin III died, and his eldest son Hassanal Bolkiah finally took full power.

As a result, the Sultan of Brunei sent people to the National Bank of Brunei to check the accounts and take stock of the property he had taken over, so he discovered this huge hole of 300 million pounds.

Hassanal Bolkiah's actions were very decisive, immediately put Qiu Deba's eldest son under house arrest, and sent out a word-take money to redeem him.

Although Qiu Deba, who is 68 years old this year, has two wives and 14 children, but there are only three males among them, and the youngest son is only 21 years old. There are really not many choices to inherit the mantle in business, so His eldest son has a very important position in the Qiu business kingdom.

Qiu Deba, who had just finished working as a white warrior and savior for Standard Chartered Bank in high spirits, seemed to get a chokehold while laughing triumphantly, but he had no choice but to sell his property and repay the debts from the Sultan of Brunei.

300 million pounds is definitely not a small figure. Although Hassanal Bolkiah, the debt collector sultan, would not ask for a one-time repayment of all debts, Qiu Deba's financial pressure is still huge, so the sale of the property At that time, he racked his brains on how to ensure that he would not be robbed by others.

Now that Qiu Deba found Tang Huan, it must be for such reasons. During the phone call before, the compliments such as Meng Chang Zhifeng and other compliments showed a faint meaning of asking for help.

In the spacious conference room of Qinhe Building, Tang Huan asked left and right: Everyone, tell me, what special value does Qiu Deba have to us?

Ma Shimin first replied: Although the shares of Standard Chartered Bank in Qiu Deba's hands are not as large as Bao Yugang's, they are quite considerable. I just don't know if he is willing to sell this part of the shares that have not been warmed up for a few days.

Huo Jianning took the words and said: The Raffles Hotel is to Singapore, just like the Peninsula Hotel is to Xiangjiang; and the Goodwood Park Hotel owned by Qiu Depuat,

The status can compete with Raffles Hotel.

...

After listening to the discussion among the executives under him for a while, Tang Huan, who was looking at each other with Zhou Mi who was sitting in the second seat, finally smiled slightly, and said in a cloudy voice, Everyone's thoughts seem to be a little more anxious.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, confused for a moment, because the big boss Gein was pretending to be a little unpredictable, and they didn't know where to start to interpret it.

At this time, the assistant came over to report, Boss, Qiu Deba is here.

Tang Huan waved his hand, Come on, everyone come with me to greet you.

...

Qiu Deba, who was full of thoughts, followed the receptionist, entered the special elevator, and arrived at the top floor, which symbolized the highest power of Qinhe, without stopping.

With the sound of ding, the elevator opened slowly. Qiu Deba, who was about to lift his leg to go outside, was startled, and saw Tang Huan, who was smiling, leading a group of his men to wait outside.

Qiu Deba didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly stretched out his hands, walked a few steps quickly, and said, It's really flattering to have Mr. Laotang come out to greet you in person.

It's true that I've neglected old Mr. Qiu. Tang Huan smiled heartily: I really can't get away these days, and I can't receive Mr. Qiu until today. Please forgive me.

During the exchange of pleasantries, Tang Huan and Zhou Mi accompanied Qiu Deba into the office. Qin and a group of executives who stopped outside the door glanced at each other and dispersed with doubts in their hearts.

Similarly, Qiu Deba was also a little puzzled about receiving such a standard of courtesy, but he was still very happy - everyone has mixed up to the current level, and the problem of face is often ranked first. Although I can't be described as being in trouble now, it is indeed a bit difficult to raise 300 million pounds in cash to repay debts after being a white warrior of Standard Chartered Bank. It is rare to still express extra respect.

Qiu Deba, feeling emotional in his heart, quickly said straight to the point, The news of the financial crisis in Brunei has probably spread in Xiangjiang, and Mr. Tang must have heard some rumors.

I have indeed heard about it. Tang Huan nodded frankly, However, in my opinion, this small disturbance is nothing to Mr. Qiu.

Thank you Mr. Tang for looking down on Qiu. Qiu Deba smiled wryly and took out the documents from the file bag he carried with him, Now I have to raise funds with all my might, and I'm brazen enough to do sales to bother Mr. Tang this time.

Tang Huan smiled slightly, and without moving the document in front of him, he picked up the cup unhurriedly and took a sip.

Seeing this scene, Qiu Deba couldn't help but feel his heart sink: Is he not interested in my property, or is he pretending to try to pick me up? If this is the case, there is no need for the warm and sincere reception just now. .”

Mr. Tang's investment scope is very wide. I am confident that the industries listed in the document are attractive enough to be worth your shot. Qiu Deba had no choice but to bite the bullet and added another sentence.

Mr. Qiu's nationality is now Australia? Tang Huan, who was noncommittal, asked irrelevantly.

Qiu Deba sighed, I heard that Mr. Tang's grandfather also did business in Southeast Asia in the early years, and then went to the United States. Then Mr. Tang should know that the status of us Chinese in Southeast Asia is rather embarrassing, especially when we meet When the current situation is unstable. My naturalization in Australia is also to seek a stable guarantee nearby.

Australia is located in the southern hemisphere, so it is still beyond our reach. Tang Huan said meaningfully.

My industrial foundation determines that I don't have too many choices. Last year, I competed for the controlling stake of Wheelock, but I lost to Bao Yugang in the end, and my pace of entering Xiangjiang was frustrated. Fortunately, Standard Chartered Bank encountered a hostile takeover. This has given me a new opportunity, but now the matter of Brunei has come up. Qiu Deba shook his head helplessly.

Tang Huan nodded slightly in understanding, Does Mr. Qiu understand the situation in Funan?

I once sent my close friends to inspect the business environment in Bainang and Hanouk Port. Although the latter has just started, the structure it built has caught the eyes of those who know how to do it. Qiu Deba also picked up the cup in front of him. , took a few sips slowly, and used this gap to figure out the meaning of Tang Huan's words.

Asking for help requires the awareness of asking for help.

Qiu Deba finally put down his cup, and asked Tang Huan to lift his hole card, Mr. Tang mentioned this topic, is there any deep meaning?

I really have an immature idea. Tang Huan laughed, Funan is indeed in its infancy, so it is extremely urgent to attract investment and gather popularity. If, I mean if, Mr. Qiu can Being naturalized in Funan and becoming a leader of Chinese businessmen there will definitely greatly promote the development of the local area. In return, I am willing to help Mr. Qiu find the working capital to repay the debt, and take Mr. Ling back as soon as possible. As for the current sale of assets to raise funds , there is no need.

I said, why doesn't Mr. Tang read my documents right away... Qiu Deba smiled suddenly, picked up the cup again, and took two sips slowly.

After a while, Qiu Deba said leisurely, I am very grateful for Mr. Tang's attention, but I am worried that I am too old to take on this important responsibility.

After Tang Huan tasted the deep meaning hidden in Qiu Deba's words, he laughed with joy, As a leader who has successfully built a business kingdom, Mr. Qiu is now in his prime of life, so he can do it again Entrepreneurship. Funan’s waiting for prosperity also means great business opportunities, and it also provides opportunities to enter the political arena. As for the stability of the country’s current situation, Mr. Qiu does not need to worry too much. The branch stationed in Hanoukville Fleet, I don't know if you noticed it.

Gouzi is my most effective assistant. After all, I am old, and I can still move my mouth. It depends on the energy of young people to implement it. Qiu Deba continued to test with an eager look on his face.

Mr. Qiu's love for licking the calf is touching. I am willing to go to Brunei in person to try to bring your noble son back. Tang Huan immediately stated his position unequivocally.

He understood that although Qiu Deba was anxious, he did not dare to go to Brunei in person, lest he be directly detained by the debt collector Sultan, so that he was not sure about his son's current situation.

Then Mr. Lao Tang will come here. Qiu Deba's decisiveness as an entrepreneur surprised Tang Huan, and he didn't even need the buffer to go back and think about it, so he accepted Tang Huan's suggestion on the spot .

...

However, in this way, the richest man needs to go to Brunei immediately, otherwise how can he talk about his sincerity in persuading people to move.

When Tang Huan told Charles, You should go to Japan for a visit first, and I will go to Brunei temporarily.

Is it that small country in Southeast Asia that is so rich in oil? Charles' eyes lit up, and he said, I'll take a tour with you.

You must not be addicted to autumn wind. Tang Huan muttered in his heart, and dissuaded him: You don't know, Brunei used to be your British colony, and it was officially independent the year before last. You king Is it appropriate for Chu to run there unexpectedly?

What does it matter if I go with you as a private person? Charles plausibly argued: Don, your life is too colorful. In comparison, my life seems a bit boring. Now Not a lot of media staring at me, just enough to walk around.

Tang Huancai ignored Charles' moaning and complaining, and unceremoniously exposed the other party's self-deception in person, Your Highness, are you sure you have a private identity?

Charles made a haha ​​in embarrassment, and finally said plainly, You know I've always had a dandy heart, and it's rare to come to Asia to be happy. You can't be so mean. 》≠miào》≠bi》≠gé》≠ ,

Okay, don't be afraid to change the itinerary casually and make your MI6 very busy, then follow me to play tricks. Seeing that the other party was so bored and wanted to join in the fun, Tang Huan had no choice but to agree.

In fact, it is not so easy to go to Brunei to pretend to be a force. It is not easy to play the card of I'm worth as much as your GDP for a year to crush.

Before the advent of the Internet age, the richest man in the United States was often the richest man in the United States, and may not be comparable to the royal family and dictators in certain regions.

Taking Southeast Asia as an example, the financial resources of the royal family of Thailand and the Suharto family of Indonesia are also very strong. The Sultan of Brunei also belongs to this category, but there is no Internet channel to disclose it more transparently.

Brunei is a small country with an area of ​​less than 6,000 square kilometers that is several times that of Singapore, which is located on the other side across Malaysia.

However, Brunei's oil reserves and production rank second only to Indonesia in Southeast Asia. Taking advantage of the global energy crisis in the 1970s, Brunei quickly became one of the richest countries in the world, and Singapore is the only one in Southeast Asia. The wealthiest countries are collectively considered developed countries.

Of course, the ostentation has to be put on. Tang Huan took Qiu Deba, sat in Silicon Valley No. 1, and went to Brunei to work as a lobbyist in two places entrusted by one hand. In addition to Charles, there was also Lee Hsien Loong, the second generation of the Lee family in Singapore.
