Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 510 Iwasaki Seeking Support ([-] in [-])

Last weekend in July.

Originally, Lin Baicheng had asked Zhong Chuhong to go hiking for an outing, but on Friday night, Iwasaki Mineryu from Tokyo suddenly called and said that he would come to Xiangjiang. Given the friendship between the two, Lin Baicheng naturally wanted to entertain him in person.

Climbing the mountain is impossible. On the Saturday when Iwasaki Mineryu came over, Lin Baicheng took Iwasaki Mineryu to go fishing, and at the same time brought Zhong Chuhong there.

Lin Baicheng went to rent a yacht, and a group of people went fishing on the yacht.

It's a bit embarrassing to say that Lin Baicheng, the richest man in Hong Kong, doesn't even have a yacht. This is mainly because he doesn't like small yachts, and he plans to order the kind of giant cruise ships that cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

However, Lin Baicheng is really reluctant to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to order a giant cruise ship, just because the price is too expensive.

Therefore, Lin Baicheng is going to wait for the investment in gold futures to end and when the huge profits are settled, to consume in a way of tax avoidance. In this way, the giant cruise ship that needs to be purchased is equivalent to no need to spend money.

Therefore, now it is over without the yacht, anyway, Lin Baicheng will not use the yacht much now.

"Chu Hong, come, I will teach you how to fish."

Although Lin Baicheng is not good at fishing, he still knows some basic knowledge, which is enough to teach Zhong Chuhong.

"I must catch a big fish."

Although Zhong Chuhong was a little disappointed that he didn't go hiking for an outing, Lin Baicheng was busy and didn't have time, and he took her with him, so she was mostly happy.

"Then I'll wait and see."

Lin Baicheng smiled slightly, and then walked towards Mineryu Iwasaki not far away.

"Lin Jun, I'm really bothering you today. If you have an appointment, you don't need to entertain me specially."

When Iwasaki Mineryu saw Lin Baicheng with Zhong Chuhong, he knew that he had disturbed Lin Baicheng's good deeds.

"It's okay, it's fine now."

Lin Baicheng responded casually, and then asked, "Iwasaki-kun, what's the matter with you coming to Xiangjiang this time?"

Iwasaki Mineryu said: "If there is no accident, I will work in Xiangjiang in the next few years, and I will ask Mr. Lin to take care of me in the future."

"Iwasaki-kun, have you been transferred to Xiangjiang?"

Lin Baicheng couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard this.

"Although it has not been finalized yet, it is not surprising."

Iwasaki Mineryu nodded slightly: "Huaguo's reform and opening up has allowed the headquarters to see opportunities, and Xiangjiang is the only window for Huaguo to the outside world. Big investment in Xiangjiang.”

"Then you came here to serve as the branch president?"

Lin Baicheng thought in his heart that Mitsubishi Bank's judgment was really accurate. Now that it has started to invest heavily in Xiangjiang, it will definitely make a lot of money after the 21st century.

"Just one of the vice presidents."

Iwasaki Mineryu shook his head: "But I am in charge of the bank's investment, and I have a lot of rights."

After a pause, Iwasaki Mineryu said solemnly: "Mr. Lin, this is actually a test for me by the family. If I can make achievements, I will be able to sit in a high position in the head office after being transferred back to Tokyo in a few years. At the same time, my status in the Iwasaki family will also be elevated. But if I can’t make achievements, or if the results are not very good, then I will basically lose the possibility of becoming the highest-level management of the head office, and my status within the family will also be affected. ceiling."

Lin Baicheng couldn't help but said: "It's just a failure, is it that serious?"

"Mr. Lin, you know that I am not actually a direct descendant of the Iwasaki family. The reason why I am valued by the patriarch now is because thanks to you, I have earned hundreds of millions of dollars. Although I do not rely on my own ability to make money, my vision and decision Strength and other aspects are also the criteria for judging whether a person is excellent, so I am fortunate to be valued by the patriarch."

"However, I'm different from other direct descendants. They have the chance to fail, but I don't. One failure will make me lose the possibility of reaching the highest position in the family. I don't have a second chance to fail."

Iwasaki Mineryu said that these are not blaming others, he is just stating a fact.To be honest, as a member of the Iwasaki family, he was stronger than most people from birth, and his starting point was higher than many people.

"I can understand what you said."

Lin Baicheng expressed his understanding that a big family has the distinction of direct line and collateral branches, and the direct line will definitely get better resources and opportunities. It is already very good for the collateral branch to have the opportunity to compete for the highest position. impossible.

"Lin Jun, we are friends. I hope you can give me some help during the time I am working in Xiangjiang, so that I can make better achievements. Once I get to a higher position, I will naturally write down Lin Jun, your kindness, if you have any investment in Japan, I will be more able to help Lin Jun."

Iwasaki Mineryu said that what he has to do is to win over Lin Baicheng.He is very clear that his own ability is not very strong, and it is not an easy task to achieve good results in Xiangjiang abroad. Without the help of local tycoons, it is unlikely that he will pass the test.

"Iwasaki-kun, we are friends. The main businesses of you and I are in Japan and Hong Kong respectively. We can't talk about competition. We have a win-win cooperation. So don't worry, I will try my best to help you."

Without thinking too much, Lin Baicheng readily agreed.As he said just now, he and Iwasaki Mineryu will benefit from cooperation. Even if Iwasaki Mineryu does not become the patriarch of the Iwasaki family in the future, as long as he can become an important high-level member of the family, it will be a good thing for Lin Baicheng.

The most important thing is that Lin Baicheng doesn't need to pay anything, and he doesn't want to give hundreds of millions of funds to Iwasaki Mineryu as a subsidy, but just let Iwasaki Mineryu get rich, he just needs to move his mouth.

"Lin Jun, thank you so much!"

Iwasaki Minelong was overjoyed when he heard the words, he got up and solemnly bowed at ninety degrees to Lin Baicheng.

"Iwasaki-kun, what are you doing like this, it's too polite, don't do this."

Seeing this, Lin Baicheng immediately helped Iwasaki Mineryu up. Don't look at Iwasaki Mineryu being so respectful and polite to him now, but he is actually very clear that if he can get more benefits if he betrays him, the "friendship" between the two is not counted at all. What, just throw it away and you can throw it away.

Therefore, Lin Baicheng knew in his heart that he and Iwasaki Mineryu were just a cooperative relationship, and he couldn't be defenseless against Iwasaki Mineryu.

The two sat down again.

Iwasaki Mineryu said: "If there are any good investment opportunities here in Xiangjiang in the future, I hope that Mr. Lin will not hesitate to enlighten you."

"Speaking of which, there is really a chance now."

Lin Baicheng said with a smile: "Iwasaki-kun, since you are going to come over to do something, you should know if you want to come to our HSBC here in Xiangjiang, right?"

Iwasaki Mineryu nodded: "Of course I know, HSBC is the largest bank in Xiangjiang."

Lin Baicheng said: "HSBC now holds a lot of shares in Hutchison Whampoa, a company under my name, and they are planning to sell them. If you believe me, Iwasaki-kun, you can find a way to buy those shares from HSBC. Of course, now Hutchison Whampoa’s market capitalization is nearly 250 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is already quite high. I am the chairman of this company, and I am optimistic about the company’s future prospects. Iwasaki-kun, if you are optimistic about it, it is up to you to judge for yourself.”

Whether Iwasaki Mineryu wants to buy the shares of Hutchison Whampoa from HSBC has no effect on Lin Baicheng, so he will end it after telling Iwasaki Mineryu about it, and will not recommend it strongly, let alone spend effort to match .

"For Mr. Lin, I naturally trust your vision. I will buy the shares of Hutchison Whampoa from HSBC as soon as possible."

Iwasaki Mineryu immediately said that he would rely on Lin Baicheng's help to make achievements. Now that Lin Baicheng has said so, if he doesn't believe or buy the stocks in HSBC, then he will listen to other investment opportunities that Lin Baicheng said in the future. Do not listen?

Since I chose to ask Lin Baicheng for help, no matter what, I still have to listen to Lin Baicheng's first advice, otherwise the meaning of asking Lin Baicheng for help will be lost.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that you have to obey Lin Baicheng’s words. Iwasaki Mineryu and Mitsubishi Bank also have their own set of judgment criteria. If it’s an investment that Mitsubishi Bank thinks has high risk or high risk and low return, Mitsubishi Bank will also not Choose to invest.

Lin Baicheng reminded: "It's best if you can buy it. If you can't buy it or the other party's asking price is too high, forget it. Don't get slaughtered for it."

Iwasaki Mineryu nodded with a smile: "I don't need Mr. Lin to tell me about this. If HSBC's asking price is too high, I might as well just buy it from the stock market."

"correct."

Lin Baicheng suddenly remembered: "Iwasaki-kun, if you come to Xiangjiang to work in the future, what will our Bailong Commercial Club do if they want to get the land?"

"It won't matter."

Iwasaki Mineryu explained: "At the beginning, the manager Sasaki did the public relations. When I was needed, I would go out again. This is the way I used to be. Xiangjiang is not far from Tokyo, and it only takes a few hours by plane. "

"That's what you said, as long as it doesn't affect you."

Lin Baicheng couldn't help but nodded after hearing this, as long as Iwasaki Mineryu's departure doesn't affect the development of Bailong Commercial Club.

Iwasaki Mineryu continued: "Although I have left Tokyo, I can still borrow the energy of the family, so if you need my help with anything, Mr. Lin, you can still find me."

"Iwasaki-kun, you have already said so, if necessary, I will not be polite."

Lin Baicheng's cooperation with Iwasaki Minelong is to draw on the strength of the Iwasaki family and Mitsubishi Bank, so when he needs help, he will not be polite.

The two chatted for a few more words, and Iwasaki Minelong suddenly said: "Mr. Lin, the international gold price has fluctuated at $300 per ounce for several trading days. The economic analysts at the head office believe that there will be a wave of adjustments in the gold price. Bailong Commercial There is no movement in the company's long gold futures orders, Lin Jun, are you going to close the long orders and continue to be bullish on the market outlook?"

"Actually, my team also told me that there will be a wave of adjustments in the price of gold, and I also trust my team's judgment."

Lin Baicheng said something first, and then continued: "The reason why I didn't close the long position is because I don't know how big this wave of adjustments will be. I am still relatively optimistic about the gold price outlook, and I think there is still a certain amount of gold price. room for growth.”

Iwasaki Mineryu couldn't help asking: "Mr. Lin, what is the basis for your judgment?"

"Last year, there was a revolution in Iran. At the beginning of this year, Iran stopped exporting oil for 60 days."

Lin Baicheng said that he had already thought about the external rhetoric: "Oil is the lifeblood of industry and has a great impact on the economy, but the political situation there is not stable, so I can't help but think that if there is a war there one day If that happens, gold will definitely go up as a safe-haven.”

"Of course, the most important thing is that the economic downturn in European countries is serious, and the GDP of the United States is also affected. Therefore, the international gold price of 300 US dollars per ounce is not very high. Judging from the perspective of the world economy, the price of gold will still rise to a certain extent. space."

Iwasaki Mineryu couldn't help saying after hearing this: "So, Mr. Lin, you continue to be optimistic about the future market of international gold prices."

Lin Baicheng nodded: "Well, that's what it means."

Iwasaki Mineryu said: "I plan to close out the remaining long orders in my hand next Monday. After the gold price starts to adjust, I will buy them back according to the actual situation. It can be regarded as a short-term difference."

"This aspect can only be judged by you, Iwasaki-kun."

When Lin Baicheng said this, he was quite speechless. Unlike Phil Smith, who firmly followed Lin Baicheng's operation, Iwasaki Mineryu had other plans many times, but he had already made mistakes twice. I hope this time will not be the third time Otherwise, Mineryu Iwasaki would suffer a great loss.

Although he knows that the price of gold will rise sharply in the future, the increase will more than double, but Lin Baicheng will not remind Iwasaki Mineryu. If Iwasaki Mineryu really misses this wave of soaring because he wants to do short-term trades, it means that Iwasaki Mineryu did not No wonder others made a lot of money.

"Ok!"

Iwasaki Mineryu has his own ideas. A while ago, some of his long orders were closed at low positions, and he made a lot of less money. That's why he wanted to make a short trade, otherwise he would really not be reconciled.Of course, this is also related to the analysts of Mitsubishi Bank and Lin Baicheng saying that the gold price will adjust, otherwise he would not insist on short-term trade.

After Lin Baicheng chatted with Iwasaki Minelong for a while, he walked over to Zhong Chuhong.

"Chu Hong, you haven't harvested yet?"

Lin Baicheng looked at the bucket next to Zhong Chuhong, and found that there was only water in it, not a single fish.

Zhong Chuhong said unwillingly: "It's too difficult to catch. I almost caught the fish several times."

"When fishing, you must put your mind at ease, and don't rush to close the pole. You see, I will show you a hand."

As Lin Baicheng said, he took the fishing rod that had been strung with feed from the bodyguard, and put the hook into the sea.

Although Lin Baicheng said that he would show Zhong Chuhong a hand, it was Zhong Chuhong who caught the fish first, and his fishing skills were actually not very good.

For this reason, Lin Baicheng was laughed at by Zhong Chuhong for a long time, but fortunately Lin Baicheng didn't take it seriously, as long as he was happy anyway.

For lunch at noon, Lin Baicheng and others ate on the yacht. They had already brought enough ingredients and even a professional chef when they set off.
