The Son of Finance of the Great Age

  Chapter 583 Teaming up with Huatou

  Three days later, Gao Dongfang took two confidant assistants to pass the customs from Shenzhen and Hong Kong, and entered Hong Kong in the dim night. The group did not notify the branch of Huatou in Hong Kong, nor the official agency, but just took a taxi and entered Hong Kong Island.

   It was nearly ten o'clock before Zhong Shi met Gao Dongfang in the office. It had been an hour since the time agreed upon by both parties. When he saw Gao Dongfang, Zhong Shi hardly recognized him: a peaked cap suppressed his hair, huge sunglasses covered half of his face, and even a small beard stuck to the corner of his mouth. Not to mention Zhong Shi with this outfit, even the people around Gao Dongfang would have difficulty recognizing him immediately.

  Although the two assistants beside Gao Dongfang did not wear exaggerated make-up like him, they also clearly concealed their body shape and appearance. After one person entered Zhong Shi's office, he took off the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, while the other exaggeratedly took off his wig, revealing his bare head.

   "Does it need to be so exaggerated?" Zhong Shi was dumbfounded, smacking his lips and sighed, "Why is it like being a spy? My place has also become a dragon's den and a tiger's lair?"

   "Almost!" Gao Dongfang took off his sunglasses, feeling a little emotional, "This time we pass the customs with our private passports, so others will not be able to find out our whereabouts."

   As he spoke, he took out his phone and pulled out the battery. Seeing him doing this, the other two quickly took out their mobile phones and pulled out the battery.

  Zhong Shi's face suddenly became serious. During the phone call, Gao Dongfang just said that he would come over for a door-to-door visit, but he didn't say what it was about. Judging from their current behavior, what Gao Dongfang and others are going to say is definitely not small.

"This is Liu Kai, my assistant, absolutely reliable!" Gao Dongfang put down his phone, pointed to the bald man and said to Zhong Shi, but when he introduced another man, his expression became obviously unnatural, and he spoke The tone was not as casual as before, "This is... uh... Secretary Dong, Dong Gang, from the Government Affairs Council."

  He didn't introduce the specific position of the man surnamed Dong, but only mentioned a secretary and the work unit in general, so he didn't say anything more. However, Zhong Shi still keenly sensed something from these two nouns, and shook hands with the other party solemnly.

  Dong Gang looks very distinctive, with thick and thick eyebrows, narrow and long eye sockets, slightly upturned, the bridge of the nose is as straight as a hook, and the lips are as thin as paper. When he shook hands with Zhong Shi, his strength was neither light nor heavy, just right, and his eyes looking directly at Zhong Shi were neither humble nor overbearing, at least in terms of momentum, he did not lose the wind in the slightest. In contrast, Gao Dongfang's assistant Liu Kai's slight bending down was inferior.

   This is a person who has seen the world, or a person with experience. Zhong Shi immediately came to such a conclusion in his heart.

   "It's like this, Mr. Zhong. You may not know that something happened inside Huatou..."

  After the two parties sat down, Gao Dongfang began to tell Zhong Shi what happened inside Huatou during this period. He poured out the factional background within Huatou, the current differences between the two parties, and the temporary solution. This lecture lasted a full half an hour.

   Zhong Shi listened silently, while scrutinizing the reactions of the other two. Liu Kai's reaction was relatively normal, and the expression on his face kept changing following Gao Dongfang's narration, especially when Gao Dongfang mentioned Zhang Hang, Liu Kai had an extremely disdainful expression on his face. People who can't hide their worries.

   On the other side, Dong Gang’s reaction was completely different. From the beginning to the end, he only had one expression: indifference. Even though Gao Dongfang said that when he confronted Zhang Hang at the meeting, Dong Gang didn't have any expression fluctuations on his face, his eyes were still indifferent as always, as if he was listening to something that had nothing to do with him.

  Since he can visit Zhong Shi with Gao Dongfang, it is naturally impossible for Dong Gang to stay out of it. This person is very scheming, and the city is deep, and not so deep, Zhong Shi quickly came to the second conclusion.

"The current situation is like this!" After Gao Dongfang finished speaking, he spread his hands and said with a wry smile, "Others envy me as the general manager and think that I can control hundreds of billions of dollars in funds, but how can this be the case? Others don't know, but from my own point of view, this family property is really suffering, and besides investment problems, I also have to be busy with administrative work. To tell you the truth, my hair has turned gray a lot during this time."

   "So what can I help you with?" After listening for a long time, Gao Dongfang still didn't explain why he came, and Zhong Shi didn't know what to say, so he could only smile awkwardly and look at Dong Gang at the same time.

   Zhong Shi is observing Dong Gang, and Dong Gang is also observing Zhong Shi. From the first observation just now to the present, Dong Gang found that Zhong Shi has always maintained a smile on his face. Even when Gao Dongfang talked about the diversification of 10 billion US dollars, Zhong Shi only smiled, without any accident or accident. Surprised look.

   You must know that this is 10 billion US dollars in cash, not RMB or Hong Kong dollars, nor is it a cold number. If piled up, there are as many hills. It is impossible for most people in this world to see so much money in their lifetime. Zhong Shi’s net worth may have exceeded these figures long ago, but Dong Gang bet that Zhong Shi has never seen ten billion dollars in cash. But even so, Zhong Shi just smiled, showing an extremely relaxed state from beginning to end.

  Here is a man who can lift weights with ease, and a man who embodies this quality is either a man of great ability or a man of great wisdom. This is Dong Gang's conclusion for Zhong Shi. He has only seen this situation in a few people, including his big boss, Gao Dongfang's backstage.

   As for himself, Dong Gang thought he couldn't do this.

   Seeing Zhong Shi looking at him, Dong Gang knew that his identity might have been exposed, and in fact he was the real person in charge of this visit. At the moment, he stopped hiding, and after coughing lightly, he said, "It's like this, Mr. Zhong, this time we are visiting, just to ask for your help, to see if there are any good investment projects that can be given to you." Let's introduce."

"Really?" Zhong Shi's face suddenly showed a half-smile expression, and after giving Dong Gang a meaningful look, he said slowly, "This is very unreasonable. According to the reason, Huatou concentrated With Huaxia's best economists, research team, lawyer team and accounting team, no matter what happens, it is impossible for an outsider like me to give advice. Besides, if there are really good investment projects, my Tianyu Fund will definitely How can you give up this opportunity to someone else?"

  Before contacting Gao Dongfang’s team, Zhong Shi only gave some judgments about the macroeconomics of the United States, and did not intervene in their specific affairs. At most, he played the role of a consultant. But this time the other party actually planned to let him intervene in specific affairs, which made him feel particularly surprised.

   After hesitating for a moment, Zhong Shi politely refused. Not to mention that this kind of thing is troublesome, just to say that it is involved in the struggle between two factions, this deal is far from worth it.

   Perhaps it was unexpected that Zhong Shi would refuse so quickly, Dong Gang showed an unexpected expression for the first time. After looking at Gao Dongfang, he said again: "Mr. Zhong, we know that you are a patriotic businessman. Many people, including my boss, praised your patriotic behavior back then. In fact, we We don’t want you to get involved in complicated political struggles. We will solve these problems by ourselves. This time we want to borrow your rich investment experience to help Huatou grasp the investment direction. Of course, don’t worry, we Your investment projects will definitely not conflict with your Tianyu Fund. In addition, you also know that in fact these funds come from national taxes, so in fact you are not just helping us, this is a benefit to the country A good thing for Limin."

  After the initial temptation failed, Dong Gang was very clever and raised his righteousness. Before coming to Hong Kong, he carefully investigated Zhong Shi's actions over the years, and found that the other party was essentially a patriotic businessman. Although he lives in Hong Kong and is active in the capital markets of Europe and the United States, this top rich man has never set foot in the capital markets of the mainland. On the contrary, he also donates large sums of money to educational institutions, charities and medical institutions in the mainland every year.

  If Zhong Shi enters the capital market in the mainland, he can cause a huge storm at any time with his net worth. In view of his special status, coupled with the serious opacity of the mainland capital market, I am afraid that the regulators can only turn a blind eye to his actions.

In the end, he added a line of "benefiting the country and benefiting the people". In fact, Dong Gang was targeting what Zhong Shi did in Hong Kong back then. Although it proved to be an excellent investment, at that time, most people They all regard Zhong Shi as the hero who saved Hong Kong. Through this point, Dong Gang discovered that Zhong Shi has a strong mentality of "concerning the country and the people", so he made a big fuss about this point.

"why me?"

  Zhong Shi was silent, and asked with his head tilted after a while.

Dong Gang smiled, "Mr. Zhong, to tell you the truth, search the entire China, or the Chinese community all over the world. You may be the one who manipulates the most funds. No one else has such experience." He paused After a pause, he continued sternly: "Although there are similar people in sovereign funds like Temasek, they are always outsiders. It is impossible for us to hand over funds to them for operation. But you are different, you are on your own."

   "Then what is your ultimate goal?" Zhong Shi asked again. He knows that his role can only be temporary. Although Dong Gang keeps saying that he is not an outsider, in fact Zhong Shi is neither a member of Huatou Company nor a member of the system, so he is destined to only be relieved for a while. It is urgent that this relationship cannot be maintained for a long time. Both Dong Gang and Zhong Shi are well aware of this.

Seeing the other party's intentions, Dong Gang naturally wanted to strike while the iron was hot, "At most one year, or two years, it depends on the internal rectification of Huatou. You may not know why these people who are against us are so eager to control The reason for this situation is that there may be a transfer of interests between them and some foreign institutions. My boss has long suspected that they are compradors of foreign institutions. This time, he originally planned to abandon them and set up a new institution. He stretched out his hand. So the boss decided not to back down this time, and no matter what, he must teach them a lesson so that they can no longer betray the interests of the country."

   "So my job is?" Zhong Shi frowned. After all, he still has to be involved in this dispute. But in the blink of an eye, he remembered that he still lacks an important partner to accompany him in acting, and the role of Huatou Sovereign Fund is just right. Soon, this thought made Zhong Shi dispel the idea of ​​staying out of the matter, "It's just as simple as helping you win the competition with each other?"

   "Yes!" Seeing that Zhong Shi was about to agree, Dong Gang finally showed a smile on his face, "The rest of the house cleaning is left to us to solve."

"If this is the case, then everything is easy to talk about!" Zhong Shi also smiled with satisfaction, "You don't need to do anything for the time being. Find a currency fund, put cash into it, and collect interest. When the time comes, I'll let you know."

  The first step is finally completed. (It’s a great event to drop pie in the sky, cool mobile phones are waiting for you!
