You are worth tens of billions before you come to the system?

Lin Zitai waved over Deng Jiahao and took out the relevant contract documents for the bet. It seemed that he already knew that Yasir would agree.

Yasir was surprised and couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Lin, are you so confident?"

Lin Zitai said softly: "Of course I have confidence, but more importantly I see your determination."

China is the world's largest oil importer and is now mobilizing the country's efforts to promote the development of new energy vehicles.

On the one hand, it is to seize the automobile manufacturing industry in Japan and South Korea, and on the other hand, it is to reduce dependence on oil as a single energy source.

Countries such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar that rely on the sale of oil resources have no choice but to upgrade their industries.

The United Arab Emirates began to be prepared for danger in times of crisis in the last century and built a high-end tourist city. The Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai became famous all over the world.

Qatar is also relying on the right to host the World Cup next year and is determined to build a new technology city at a cost of US$2200 billion.

Only Saudi Arabia has the largest land area in the entire Arab world, but it has almost zero viable industries.

We can only rely on spreading money around the world, making ends meet, exploring all walks of life, and finding a new way out.

Now that there is an opportunity to join Novartis, Lin Zitai believes that they will not give up.

Because as long as Novartis fails to acquire Merck, they will definitely try their best to get another 16.4% of the shares to replace Lin Zitai's position.

Yasir smiled bitterly, without any embarrassment of being seen through, and pondered for a long time: "Mr. Lin, you can do two things without doing one thing."

Lin Zitai heard the implication and smiled on his face: "Mr. Yasir, do you have a way to get the shares of Pioneer?"

"Pioneer holds 10.9% of Merck, but if you want 10.9% of the shares, you may not need Pioneer."

Among the top ten shareholders of Merck, Vanguard is the second largest shareholder after the Saudi sovereign fund.

10.9% of the shares is a lot, but the sovereign fund has the ability to make money and has maintained good cooperative relations with institutions in various countries.

As long as he thinks of a way and pays a little extra price, Yasir should be able to help Lin Zitai get 10.9% of the shares.

Signed a gambling agreement with him again, putting all the remaining 16.4% of Lin Zitai's shares on the gambling table.

If Novartis' acquisition of Merck fails, they will be able to completely replace Lin Zitai's position in the Novartis Group.

If the Novartis merger is successful, they will lose more than 10 billion at most, which is still within the acceptable range.

"Mr. Yasir, three days is enough. If not, we will find a way ourselves."

Although Lin Zitai felt that Yasir seemed to have overestimated himself and the international status of the Saudi sovereign fund, he was willing to give it a chance.

It is best to solve the problem at once without bothering the two masters. He does not want to sign a gambling agreement with Pioneer. After all, Pioneer is not as easy to talk to as Saudi Arabia.

"can."

In the evening, after bidding farewell to Yasir, Lin Zitai took a special plane to Tokyo. There was a time difference of more than six hours between the two places, and nightfall had just fallen in Tokyo.

Lin Zitai asked his assistant to notify Aoi Kazuo and Saito Shengli, as well as Li Zaiyong next door, to come over for a meeting tomorrow.

After he bought up all the shares held by the group, he should also give an explanation to his partners and follow-up arrangements.

Then we took a car to Zhao Xiaoyou’s residence in Roppongi. Zhao Xiaoyou was not at home, but the nanny at home knew him.

What Lin Zitai didn't expect was that there was another man in the family, Zhao Xiaoyou's younger brother Zhao Siyuan.

Zhao Siyuan was sitting on the carpet playing with the baby. He looked up and saw Lin Zitai with an unkind expression on his face: "Why are you here?"

Lin Zitai took off his coat and handed it to the nanny without any embarrassment. He smiled and said, "Of course I came to visit my son."

Unlike his daughter's crying, his son seemed to be particularly close to Lin Zitai.

I haven’t seen him for more than a month, but I still seem to recognize him. He grinned, exposing his pink gums, and reached out to babbling for a hug.

More than three months old, she is no longer as shriveled as when she was just born. She is white, tender and chubby like a mini Michelin tire baby.

"Oh, you're already so fat."

Lin Zitai smiled, as if Zhao Siyuan was nothing, he picked up the baby and played it in his arms.

Zhao Siyuan stared, his chest rising and falling.

At this time, the door opened again, and Zhao Xiaoyou came home from get off work.

Wearing a gray professional lady's suit, her shoulders are well padded, her aura is still the same, she is recovering well after giving birth, and her eyes are a little gentler than before she gave birth.

The shoulder-length short hair that had once been so heroic had unconsciously reached her neck. She looked at Lin Zitai without being too surprised. She lowered her head and changed her slippers: "When did you come here?"

"Just arrived."

"Have you eaten?"

"not yet."

"Let's eat something together?"

"Row."

Zhao Siyuan hesitated to speak, and Zhao Xiaoyou looked over with cold eyes: "My parents are a little worried, it's time for you to go home."

Zhao Siyuan gritted his teeth and slammed the door in anger without leaving a word.

Zhao Xiaoyou frowned and sighed helplessly.

Lin Zitai held the baby with one hand and held Zhao Xiaoyou's waist with the other hand: "Why are you so cold? After all, he is your brother."

Zhao Xiaoyou patted Lin Zitai's hands away and asked the baby in his arms to take care of him: "If your brother is so virtuous, will you still give him a good look?" Lin Zitai laughed: "Then what else can be done? ? Just raise him, you can't expect him to become a dragon or a phoenix, right?"

"Let's not talk about this anymore."

Zhao Xiaoyou waved away the nanny and asked curiously: "Why did you come here suddenly?"

"Of course I'm here to see my son and see how he's being raised by you?"

"I am his mother, how can I still treat him badly?"

Zhao Xiaoyou knew that Lin Zitai didn't want to talk, so she didn't continue the topic: "Her child should have been born too, right?"

"Well, my name is Lin Qianyi."

"female?"

There was a hint of joy in Zhao Xiaoyou's eyes, women were always inferior to men.

Although she is a woman and has always been unconvinced, she has to admit this fact.

Lin Zitai glanced at her: "Sister Youyou, how do I hear that you are a little happy?"

"Is it that obvious?"

Zhao Xiaoyou's face was filled with arrogance and her chin was raised, looking more and more like a young woman.

……

The next day, Lin Zitai and Zhao Xiaoyou came to Namei Medicine's Tokyo office together.

Temporarily borrowing the reception room of their company to receive the upcoming Saito Victory and others.

Zhao Xiaoyou was sitting on the boss's chair with a smile on her face, her legs crossed, and her face was rosy and shiny.

Lin Zitai, on the other hand, seemed a little lethargic. He often yawned and rubbed his eyes.

Zhao Xiaoyou covered her mouth and smiled sweetly: "Mr. Lin, are you okay? Do you want to take a rest first?"

Lin Zitai glanced at her and said nothing. He just asked his assistant to buy a bottle of magic drink.

Zhao Xiaoyou has a very proactive and wild personality, and her postpartum fighting ability is even more amazing.

I kept shaking it until almost dawn last night. I felt that my waist was a little unbearable and my calves were still a little soft.

Lin Zitai couldn't help but sigh: "The ancients said, thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger..."

Zhao Xiaoyou stared, she didn't like people talking about her age, especially Lin Zitai.

She glanced at the surveillance camera: "Saito and the others are here, please don't hinder my work."

Lin Zitai followed his gaze, stopped smiling, and left Zhao Xiaoyou's office.

When he met Saito and others, he first exchanged a few polite greetings, and then informed: "The meeting will be held in advance this month. There are two main things I want to tell you."

The first thing is that he spent US$3000 billion to buy 336% of Merck's shares held by the Saudi sovereign fund based on a market value of US$11.2 billion.

"$3000 billion?"

Several people's eyes widened and they thought it was an auditory hallucination.

After all, as of last night, Merck's market value was still US$4023 billion.

Although the big dog owners in the Middle East are famous for being stupid and rich, they are not going to get kicked in the head by a donkey, right?

Saito Shengli was the first to react: "Mr. Lin, what's the second thing?"

Lin Zitai paused and said softly: "I signed a gambling agreement with Saudi Arabia. If the merger and acquisition cannot be completed in one year, they will buy back the shares at the original price, and I will give away 17% of Novartis shares for free..."

Several people's expressions changed drastically: "Then what should we do?"

They are willing to help Novartis prepare US$400 billion in financing and spend a total of US$600 billion to play with Lin Zitai.

On the one hand, he believed in Lin Zitai's ability, and on the other hand, he wanted to follow Novartis's acquisition of Merck and take advantage of the opportunity to get a piece of the pie.

If Lin Zitai leaves,

So they still play with a hammer?

"Investment means there will be losses as well as profits. No one can guarantee a guaranteed profit. We are now just grasshoppers in the same boat."

Lin Zitai drank tea with his usual expression and did not make any more promises to them.

He has already paid enough and put his Novartis shares on the gambling table. The rest of the risk needs to be borne by everyone.

Of the US$664 billion in funds, there are now only billion left.

If Yasir's plan goes smoothly, it will probably cost another US$327 billion.

In the end, there will be US$337 billion left for the final sprint, but not all of this money will be lost.

Because it is used for the final sprint, unless Merck's stock price becomes worthless, it will not lose money.

And because of the existence of the gambling agreement, there are failed contract clauses that require the other party to repurchase their shares at the original price.

They will only use a maximum of 337 billion US dollars in funds. Even if the loss rate reaches 50%, it will only be 168.5 billion US dollars.

Novartis holds 40% of the shares, and the other three companies hold 60%.

If divided evenly, they would lose more than 10 billion at most, which is nothing compared to the price paid by Lin Zitai. (End of chapter)
