Hong Kong Movies: I am Hongxing, what the hell is the intelligence king?

Chapter 280: A casual placement

“Information is wealth.”

Lin Feng was smoking a cigar while talking.

“Since ancient times, mastering information means mastering wealth.”

"You are a qualified businessman, you should understand this principle."

"I won't use the words from my hometown to explain this to you. I will use the things you are most familiar with to explain it to you."

Donald perked up and asked:

"for example?"

Lin Feng smiled and said:
“The Rise of the Rothschilds.”

Donald was in awe.

Lin Feng shrugged:

"The Rothschild family is amazing. In its heyday, their influence spread throughout the Western world."

"Even a big family like Amei is just their vassal."

“There are even rumors that World War II was caused by their greed.”

"But do you know how the Rothschild family became rich?"

"It's dead easy to say - master the information!"

"Their main place of activity is the Fog City."

"Yet they spent thousands of treasures and sent countless people to all parts of Europe."

"Once there is an event that is big enough to move the market, they will do everything they can to get back."

"Even if they only lead by half a day, it will be enough for the Rothschild family to stir up trouble in the stock, bond, futures and other battlefields."

"With just one trick, they became the most powerful tycoon in European history."

"There will never be another giant like this again."

Donald frowned and said:

"The Rothschild family is indeed powerful, but your statement is too absolute."

"There will always be someone who breaks it later, right?"

Lin Feng laughed and said:
"Europe has a short history and does not know the real harm caused by such big businessmen."

"But World War II was caused by them. Do you think European countries will not take precautions?"

Donald fell silent.

Lin Feng said again:

"I know you in Hong Kong, so I can also know what you are doing here."

"I can even predict the success or failure of your trip."

"At this point, haven't you reacted yet?"

Donald was horrified.

"Lin, are you a prophet?"

Lin Feng glanced at him, his golden-haired eyes sparkling.

"I don't believe in your God."

“So I am not your prophet.”

"I just put more effort into it than you do."

"I've said it before, there's very little news in Hong Kong that I don't know."

Donald was shocked:
"Can you still explain it this way?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"What else? Do you want me to tell you that I've been spying on you since Amei?"

Donald shook his head:

"I'm not a big shot, why would anyone spy on me?"

Lin Feng joked:
"You're going to be somebody."

"Because you met me!"

Donald was delighted:
"It is such a joy to receive your praise."

“I’m going to try to be somebody.”

Lin Feng said seriously:
"Believe me!"

"You're going to be somebody."

Donald smiled bitterly:

"But my capital chain is about to break. If I can't make up for it, I will go bankrupt!"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"Remember when I gave you a business card?"

Donald perked up, then shook his head and said:

"You mean you can help me right?"

"If you are a second- or third-generation wealthy person, it is possible."

"You are too young..."

Lin Feng smiled and said:
"Indeed, I'm not some second or third generation person, but I can help you."

Donald's eyes widened:
"what?"

Lin Feng said with a smile:
"After all, you are also someone who started doing business when you were in college. Do you think that there are no people who started from scratch at this age besides you?"

“As far as I know, many people start their own businesses at this age.”

"For example, Bill and Paul, they are very young entrepreneurs like you, well, they are many years younger than you."

Donald's eyes widened like bells:
"You're so concerned about Amei?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"Isn't this normal? Capital has no borders. Let me tell you in secret that I hold a lot of stocks in both of them."

“I am very optimistic about their future.”

"This stock will definitely make me a lot of money."

Donald doesn't care about Lin Feng's investment:

"Dear Lin, will you help me?"

Lin Feng asked back: "How much silver paper do you need?"

Donald said quickly:

"I need 200 million US dollars..."

After looking at Lin Feng's expression, he immediately changed his words.
"No, no, one hundred million US dollars will be enough."

Lin Feng said with a smile:
"You can think about it again."

Donald drank iced Coke to hide his inner feelings, but when the Coke took a sip, he couldn't help but frowned.

Sure enough, after the first sip of the Kole, it was all garbage and should be thrown into the trash can.

Tons, tons, tons,
After finishing his iced cola, Donald said:

"Lin, I should tell you the truth."

"Two hundred million dollars will ease my capital chain, and there will be surplus liquidity."

"However, I am actually optimistic about a very good project, which requires an additional 200 million US dollars."

"I'd be grateful if you could help me."

Lin Feng smiled:
"Four hundred million dollars? That's not a lot."

Donald couldn't believe his ears at all. He stood up suddenly and waved his hands and danced excitedly.

"Lin, you promised to invest in me?"

Lin Feng wondered:
"When did I promise you?"

Donald was disappointed:

"But just now, you clearly meant..."

Lin Feng sighed:

"How can a $400 million investment be secured with your empty words?"

"This is a huge investment. If it were you, wouldn't you be careful?"

Donald suddenly had an idea and said:

"But you know me!"

Lin Feng laughed:

"Yes, I know you."

Donald has a lot of wisdom:
"You know me well. You will not refuse to invest in me like other wealthy people in Hong Kong."

"Those who reject me will regret it."

"That rich man who didn't even want to see me will definitely regret it!"

"I will definitely become a great person in the future..."

"Lin, invest in me, and you will definitely get a considerable return."

Lin Feng said slowly:
"You are a shrewd and petty guy."

"It's terrible to be your enemy. You will hold a grudge for decades."

"But being your ally may not necessarily lead to good results. When you need to, you will take action against your allies without mercy."

Donald was not embarrassed:

"Yes, that's right, this is me!"

“That’s how capital works, isn’t it?”

Lin Feng shrugged:

"Then just do things according to the laws of capital."

"I will invest enough money in you."

"But I am a businessman and I need to make enough profit."

Donald immediately said:

"I will give you enough return, how about 3% of the profit?"

Lin Feng sneered and said:
"Why should I invest in you if there is only a 3% profit?"

"The bank's profit from short-term lending can reach 10 percent!"

"Wouldn't it be good if I lent it to the bank?"

"You have to know that it's not easy to find rich people with as much cash as I do."

Donald nodded in acknowledgment.

This is also the reason why he travels around the world looking for investment.

A truly wealthy person never lets his money sit idle.

Especially in Aramco, once the funds are idle, a lot of taxes will be paid.

This is simply not allowed for the rich.

Reasonable tax avoidance is what they pursue!

Therefore, although there are many wealthy businessmen who have more wealth than Donald, theoretically they should be able to easily come up with 400 million US dollars...

However, there are not many people who have the financial resources to come up with so much banknotes immediately.

In addition, Donald is involved in traditional real estate and is not trusted by financial investment institutions. During this period, many banks went bankrupt due to real estate crises.

Donald really couldn't raise enough money from Amei, so he came to Hong Kong to seek help from the four richest men.

The reason is quite simple. Only real estate tycoons would have confidence in Donald's business.

Unfortunately, Donald's hopes were dashed. Three of the four richest people met him out of courtesy, but it was impossible for them to invest.

As for the richest man, he didn't even want to meet Donald and sent him away with just one sentence.

By the way, Donald really followed Lin Feng’s advice and met the fourth richest man first, then the third richest man, then the second richest man, and finally the richest man.

No matter what, keep hope.

Even if the rich people in front will not invest, at least there are rich people behind to give hope.

However, the process from hope to despair was so exciting that Donald called Lin Feng immediately - it was truly a deep despair, otherwise, how could he call a stranger he just met at the dinner table?

Especially since this stranger is still a young man.

Lin Feng the lion gradually broke through the golden retriever's defenses.

"The fact that you came to me means you have reached the end of your rope."

Donald said stubbornly:
"I will definitely find enough investors."

Lin Feng nodded perfunctorily:

"Yes, you will definitely find it, like finding me."

Donald shook his head wisely:

"It seems to be the other way around. It should be you who found me."

Lin Feng smiled and said:
"No, back home, we call it fate."

"Think about it. There are more than five billion people in the world, and our two countries are separated by a planet. The probability of meeting each other is one in two and a half billion..."

"What is the probability of this happening?"

"It's fate that we can meet, so I'm willing to give you a business card."

Donald suddenly reacted:

"Is there anything special about your business card?"

Lin Feng said calmly:
"Anyone who has my business card calls me and asks for help, no matter what the request is, I will do my best to help him."

Donald gasped. Intuitively, he felt that this thing was very powerful.

Think about it, if someone without power made such a rule, wouldn’t it be laughable?
The same is true in reverse. Those who can truly implement these rules must have considerable energy.

The golden haired man immediately said:
"Then I want to ask for your help. I want to borrow 400 million US dollars."

Lin Feng said decisively:
"There is no problem."

"My request is simple. I know you have your eye on a big project. I want 30% of the profits from this project."

Donald felt quite painful, but thinking about his own experience, he decisively agreed.

He has no choice, or he will go bankrupt!
Lin Feng stretched out his hand, and the golden retriever quickly clapped his hands with him.

Donald said with great anticipation:
"When will the 400 million US dollars arrive?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"Once we sign the contract, you can get the money whenever you want."

Donald was delighted:
"So what are you waiting for? Let's sign the contract!"

Lin Feng looked at him curiously:
"Don, I think it would be better to do this kind of thing tomorrow."

Donald is unwilling to:

"I still want to sign the contract as soon as possible and have the funds transferred to my account tomorrow."

Lin Feng asked:

"Did your lawyer come with you?"

Donald was stunned for a moment.

Lin Feng shrugged:

"That's not like you."

The golden retriever sincerely admitted his mistake:
"Lin, it's my fault. I wanted that investment too badly."

In a sense, the foundation of the Western world is lawyers.

Lawyers ensure that wealthy Westerners can do whatever they want, reaching into every aspect of life.

Signing a contract is just one of the most basic functions.

Lin Feng smiled and said:

"You can ask around in Xiangjiang to find out my reputation. I can get a meal by using my facial recognition wherever I go."

Donald asked curiously:

"Lin, what kind of business are you in?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

“I mainly do angel investing.”

“Sometimes I occasionally invest in a specific person.”

The golden retriever suddenly realized:

"No wonder you know my information."

Although angel investors invest in various start-ups, their money does not come from the wind, and background checks are required.

Lin Feng laughed:

"You think I investigated you?"

Donald was puzzled:

"Isn't it?"

Lin Feng smiled and said:
"I have always been good at judging people. I invested in you because, on the one hand, I felt that I had a good relationship with you, and on the other hand, I believed that you would grow into a big man in the future."

"Now, it's just a casual investment."

"Maybe you will give me enough rewards in the future."

Donald said seriously:

"Lin, believe me, I am a man of my words and I don't play tricks."

The golden retriever laughed at himself.
"Maybe there's something wrong with my way of expressing myself. No one knows how to do what they say better than me, but some people always think I'm bragging."

"It's really frustrating."

Lin Feng smiled and said:
"Of course, I know you'll keep your word."

Thinking about what this gentleman would do decades later, Lin Feng really found it hard to imagine that there would be other Western politicians who would fulfill their promises to voters as seriously as he did.

When will Western politicians take that stuff seriously?

The one in front of you is.

Golden Retriever is not a good person, but he always makes his plans clear.

Not hidden at all.

Just for this reason, Lin Feng felt that he could get along with this guy.

Donald had relaxed and asked curiously:
"Lin, how many people have you given this kind of business card to?"

Lin Feng shrugged:

"Three!"

"Two have been used, and I don't know when the remaining one will be used."

Donald was jubilant:
"So I'm the third one?"

Lin Feng smiled and nodded:

"Yes!"

The golden retriever asked curiously:
"How is the first person who asked you for help now?"

Lin Feng said casually:
"He was also short of funds at the time, so I lent him 1 billion Hong Kong dollars so that he would have enough funds to operate in the stock market."

"He did not disappoint me and successfully sent his biological father to prison."

Donald was speechless for a moment:

"Sent your father to prison?"

Lin Feng smiled and said:
"This incident is very famous in Hong Kong."

"He is also well-known in a certain field in Amei."

"It's about other people's privacy, so I'm not in a position to disclose more."

Donald expressed his understanding:
"Of course, respecting each other's privacy is one of our noble virtues."

"Lin, is your main job angel investment?"

Lin Feng shook his head:
"How can I possibly focus on that?"

"too tired!"

"I am a rich man and I want to enjoy life."

"You should know that the purpose of making money is to enjoy life."

"You can never make enough money. You have to slow down your life."

"To increase my experience..."

Donald was stunned:
"Then how do you make money?"

Lin Feng said calmly:
"There are many knowledgeable people in this world, but they usually lack the most important thing...silver paper!"

"I have silver, so I can buy their knowledge and their people."

“I hired them to do things for me.”

"This way, I will have plenty of time to rest."

“We should be the masters of money, not its slaves.”

Donald is stunned!
After thinking about it carefully, it seems to be true.

Lin Feng continued to output his poisonous chicken soup:

"A big city like Hong Kong has narrow roads and the highest population density in the world."

"The pedestrians coming and going looked hurried, as if someone was chasing them from behind."

"They rush around doing things aimlessly, running around for three meals a day."

“Days like this happen all the time.”

“Yet the vast majority of them will not become wealthy.”

"Do you know why?"

Donald shook his head. He was confused by what Lin Feng said.

Golden Hair asked devoutly:

"why?"

Lin Feng laughed:

“Because they won’t slow down.”

"If you want a spring to remain elastic, you can't just apply pressure all the time."

“You have to relax in moderation.”

"People are the same. They can step up at critical moments, but they can also slow down."

"Being able to slow down your life is a sign of confidence."

"Tang, if you want to expand your business, you need to spend more time cultivating your personal connections."

"Otherwise, if we encounter the current situation again, do we hope to meet the four families of Hong Kong again?"

The golden retriever gritted his teeth and said:
"The other three families are fine, but I will definitely remember the rich man in Hong Kong."

"When I have the chance in the future, I will definitely take revenge."

However, Donald was curious:
"Lin, what you said is very philosophical. You said your main business is not angel investment. Are you studying philosophy?"

Lin Feng said with a smile:
"My age means it's impossible."

"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Lin Feng, and I am the leader of the Hongxing Society's Causeway Bay branch."

The golden retriever is obsessed - are you kidding me?
