The Son of Finance of the Great Age

  Chapter 641 Kaminarimon Bankruptcy (4)

Before calling Zhong Shi, John Mark realized that the other party would not have a good attitude, but he still did not expect that Zhong Shi directly put the grievances on the table, which made his prepared remarks suddenly overwhelmed. There is a place for it to be used.

  But after all, John Mark has been immersed in the business world for many years, and he has long practiced the stunt of invulnerability. After a slight delay, he said in a serious tone: "Mr. Zhong, the previous incident is indeed a problem with our internal management. No matter what, it has caused you great trouble. I once again extend my sincere apologies to you."

"In addition, according to our subsequent investigation, Tom Doyle was instructed by someone. We don't know who it is, but it must be someone with deep malice towards Mr. Zhong. Because these things are harmful to Mr. Zhong's reputation The damage was done, and my company and I deeply regret all of this."

  He spoke slowly and solemnly, with a natural sincerity in his tone. If Zhong Shi hadn't known the truth a long time ago, he might have been deceived by him.

"Okay, don't talk about these meaningless things." Zhong Shi was not fooled at all, and there was a kind of impatience when he spoke, "You are right, someone is indeed framing me behind my back, and I also know that if Without your cooperation, this matter would not have developed to the point of confrontation in court. Tell me, what do you want to do with me? It's okay, I can hang up!"

John Mark sweated profusely, thinking that the other party's score was really big enough. Although he said that he would go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but even if it was just a greeting, how many people in the world would be rude to the chairman of Stanley, Especially when you have already lowered your posture.

However, he had a ghost in his heart, and coupled with the fact that he wanted something from the other party, it was naturally impossible to delve into such details. He pressed his unhappiness and said, "Zhong, I want to make a deal with you, a deal for you." It’s a very good deal. I’ll give you some news that will guarantee you a fortune, and in return, you need to help me find some funds in the market.”

   "Are you going to make a deal with me?"

  Zhong Shi laughed dumbfounded, but soon fell into deep thought. According to the identity and status of the other party, it is not a bad idea to seek help from himself. Everyone knows that Tianyu Fund is currently a cash cow.

But the problem is that Stanley Corporation is a giant in the financial market. Even though Tianyu Fund has expanded to an immeasurable level, it is still a relatively small existence compared to Stanley Corporation. The unequal status of the two parties determines the unequal right to speak. Under such circumstances, the other party actually wanted to seek financing from Tianyu Fund, which seemed counterintuitive.

"As part of the transaction, what I can guarantee is that the information we provide will definitely ensure that you can obtain sufficient liquidity in the market." Seeing that the other party was silent, John Mark continued to confuse, "About whether it is You don’t have to worry about the issue of insider trading, because the news will be known to the world soon. The most important thing is that you and your friends can buy cheap and high-quality stocks suitable for long-term holding. Good things can only happen now."

   "Wait, let me guess first!"

Zhong Shi interrupted him, thought for a moment, and then gave his guess, "I believe that the high-quality stocks you mentioned should be Stanley's common stocks. In addition, the news you called should be the Raymond Brothers The news of bankruptcy is about to be declared. Uh... Since you are looking for me in such a hurry, it is estimated that Leimen Brothers will declare bankruptcy as soon as the market opens tomorrow."

   "..."

  John Mark's hole card was revealed, and he was so horrified that he couldn't say a word.

"Since you don't speak, it means that my guess is correct." Zhong Shi ignored him and continued to say to himself, "Perhaps there is also a news that Merrill Lynch may be acquired. Otherwise, even Leimen The brothers are now declaring bankruptcy, and Merrill Lynch, which ranks third on Wall Street, is directly affected, not Stanley. So I can’t think of anything more than this possibility.”

"If this is the case, I don't think you have any bargaining chips worth trading with me, Mr. Mark. If you want to use Tianyu Fund to get rid of the siege of vultures in the market, I have to say that this move is the right move It's very clever. But the question is, why should I help you? Your so-called news is not a secret to me at all."

  Although the voice was soft, it sounded like a thunderbolt in John Mark's ears. You must know that the news that Leimen was forced to declare bankruptcy has only been a few hours since it was officially formed. And Zhong Shi, who is far away in Hong Kong, has already received the news, not only that, he even received the news that Merrill Lynch Securities may be acquired. The eyeliner is average.

The only bargaining chip he had had been lost, John Mark felt ashamed, knowing that he had lost the initiative to negotiate under such circumstances, "I really didn't expect that Zhong, you already knew all this, it's too surprising .But Zhong, don’t you think even so, buying the shares of Stanley now is a good way to invest?”

"I believe that Dick Ford has said similar things to many people!" Zhong Shi snorted coldly, without giving the other party the slightest bit of face, "It's a pity that no one believes what he said, otherwise we wouldn't be in the bankruptcy situation today .I believe that the market is more willing to let you follow the old path of Raymond Brothers than to save you. By the way, not only you, but even Goodman Company has similar troubles, right?"

  The phone call made John Mark even more terrified. In fact, he did think so. If anything happened to Stanley Company, he would try his best to pull Goodman Company into the water and die together.

   "I need to know the people behind the scenes, and why you came to me." Zhong Shi continued, "Only knowing these, I will consider helping you at the right time."

   "What's behind the scenes?"

  John Mark was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately realized what Zhong Shi was talking about. According to what Zhong Shi said so far, he has never promised anything at all. Even if he reveals all of these, he is afraid that the other party will not do anything in the end, and he will have nothing to do. But he can't gamble. Although so far, Stanley's cash flow is abundant and the fundamentals are good, but once the news of the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers is made public, all this will be reversed due to the panic of market confidence, and various rumors will come to an end. It will continue to pour out, and by then, what Raymond Brothers is today may be Stanley's tomorrow.

"George, Soros!" By now, John Mark could no longer hide anything, and said such a name through gritted teeth, "It's him, and he ordered everything behind the scenes. He arranged to frame you Yes, he also paid for the acquisition of Tom Doyle. And recently we found out that his fund was quietly shorting our Stanley stock. If it weren't for the abnormal volatility of short selling options, we would not have found out that they were shorting action."

"They shorted Stanley's stock?" Zhong Shi secretly smiled, but pretended to be surprised, "According to what you said above, you and him are not allies? How could he still short your stock? Logically it doesn't make sense!"

"I do regard him as a friend, but this guy is secretly trying to snipe our company's stock. This kind of betrayal makes me feel sick!" John Mark became more and more excited, roaring in a voice almost roaring, " He broke my trust and that will never be forgiven!"

   "I'm afraid that what you are afraid of is not his betrayal, but the strength of his short selling!"

   Naturally, Zhong Shi would not fully believe such words, because even if Soros "betrayed" John Mark, the other party would not have such a big reaction. But if Soros joins several hedge funds to attack Stanley, this is what makes John Mark really afraid. The lesson of Leimen Brothers being defeated by Green Light Capital is still vivid, how dare John Mark turn a blind eye?

   "Only joining me or a more important organization can dispel the doubts of the market." Zhong Shi's expression was half a smile, and his tone was full of ridicule, "Is that so, Mr. Mark."

"Indeed, you are right!" After hearing Zhong Shi's words, John Mark, who was filled with righteous indignation a second ago, was deflated like a balloon being poked by a needle, and replied weakly, "At this time , I really don’t want to fill the market with more uncertainty because it’s just too dangerous.”

  He had vaguely guessed that Zhong Shi might help him this time. If the other party was really not in the mood, I'm afraid I wouldn't have said so much to him. As for what conditions the other party would offer, he was full of curiosity.

"If that's the case, I can consider helping you." Sure enough, Zhong Shi said the sentence John Mark expected, but before he was happy for too long, Zhong Shi's next sentence made him shake his head and smile wryly , "But I have one condition, which is to teach Soros a lesson."

   Lesson Soros, how is this possible? Over the years, Soros has made at least eight hundred enemies in the market, including some political dignitaries. But so far, only a few have been able to trick each other, and most of the others can only be swallowed with blood and smashed teeth.

  Want to set a trap for Soros, firstly, the gamble is big enough after all, and secondly, the reversal factor of this gamble at the critical moment must be in the hands of the person who set up the game. With these two alone, basically all possible traps have been ruled out, because it is too difficult.

  Even John Mark could only smile wryly in the face of such a situation.

"You don't have to worry about this trap, because there is a ready-made one on the market now." As if guessing what John Mark was thinking, Zhong Shi said lightly, "What you need to do now is to attract Soros To this market. By the way, I forgot to tell you that Frankfurt, Germany, is where the trap I set for Soros is.”

"frankfurt, Germany?"

  John Mark's blue eyes rolled around for a long time, he didn't want to understand what was going on, but since the other party said so, he only needed to ask the analyst in Germany to find out. Of course, he really wanted to know how the other party would deal with Soros, but obviously the other party would not tell him, so he tactfully kept his mouth shut and asked, "Then, what about our deal?"

   "Us? What deal do we have?" Zhong Shi pretended to be surprised.

  John Mark secretly groaned in his heart, knowing that the other party would not let the rabbit see the eagle. While continuing to talk to Zhong Shi, he began to ponder silently in his heart on how to lead Soros into a trap.

"Mr. Zhong, you can't do this!" John Mark begged, "I will definitely complete what I promised, and when I need it, I also need to be able to get your help. By the way, including everything mentioned above, I will never admit that it has legal effect."

   "This old fox, dare to be afraid of my recording!" Zhong Shi cursed secretly.
