I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 776 Are you interested in acquiring a TV station?

Liu Jin was given a severe scolding and left Toulouse in disgrace.

Yes, as expected.

Fortunately, he has also perfectly resolved his issues with Alizee and Eva.

Otherwise, they would definitely be criticized even more harshly.

However, Chloe advised against using the name Camille, as it could cause some trouble in the future.

"Let's use a more discreet name."

What name should we use?

“Use the Gruson Estate family trust fund.”

Then, multiple sub-funds can be established under this trust fund, which don't necessarily need to be publicly disclosed, making it even safer.

"Will it be troublesome?"

"What trouble could there be?"

Chloe's words put Liu Jin at ease.

"Mera, you can manage this fund for me from now on."

"I?"

Meera was stunned.

“How can I, an outsider, get involved in your family trust fund?”

“You’re not an outsider. You’re the godmother and godmother of my children. Why can’t you be one of them?”

"When did I agree?"

Liu Jin said with a grin, "From the day we started cooperating..."

Mela was both amused and exasperated!

Liu Jin trusted Mela and Chloe even more than he trusted Old Joe.

Although Mela and Chloe have never been involved in finance, their family background and connections are enough to guarantee the safety of the fund.

The Singer family is a long-established family with a history of six hundred years.

Now scattered around the world, most of them have respectable identities.

As for Chloe, her father has entered politics and now enjoys a stable level of support in French politics.

In particular, his tough stance on strengthening control over refugees has attracted support from the French people.

However, ten years later...

It’s hard to say!

However, it also has incredibly strong backing.

……

On March 2, the US stock market closed at 6763 points, marking its lowest closing level since April 1997.

This also means that the financial crisis has reached its trough.

The Black President is about to unleash his power!

After that, it will slowly recover.

Of course, it will be very slow!

At least during the first term of the Black president, it was difficult to see any results.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by more than half to 6700 points.

On the 3rd, Asian stock markets were also impacted, with the Nikkei index falling to 7117 points, its lowest point since the collapse of the bubble economy.

However, the little life is very good at creating bubbles.

The Shanghai Composite Index fell 1.05%, and the Hang Seng Index fell 2.3%.

Subsequently, AIG, or American International Machinery Group, announced a historic quarterly loss.

In the last quarter of last year, AIG lost $617 billion, the largest loss in America's history.

GST then took this opportunity to complete the final transaction.

"Three hundred and seventy-three billion!"

On the phone, Old Qiao tried his best to tell Liu Jin in a calm tone.

But he still couldn't hide the tremor in his voice.

An investment of 2.8 billion yuan, spanning a year and a half...

Even though Liu Jin was mentally prepared, he could not hide his excitement.

"The diversion of funds will take about three to six months... We need to avoid America's supervision."

"Be careful, don't give them any leverage."

Joan said in a trembling voice, "Don't worry, I'm a professional in this area."

He used to be the CFO of Procter & Gamble, and in that respect, he certainly has an advantage that is hard for ordinary people to match.

He knows exactly how to transfer these funds without anyone noticing!
There will definitely be some losses. According to the report provided by Lao Qiao, the losses will be close to five billion.

But it's still better than being controlled by America.

To be honest, Liu Jin wasn't entirely at ease with the Black President's character.

He doesn't just distrust the president; in fact, he doesn't believe the nice things that politicians around the world say, not just America.

Based on the investment allocation, Liu Jin's return this time is approximately seventeen times.

That is, $170 billion.

Leonardo DiCaprio's side can get more than 2 billion in revenue.

Old Zhong can also make nearly two billion in profits.

Mela and Chloe also benefited greatly...

People used to say they were going to become rich women, but it was just talk.

Now that they were about to be safe, even Mela, with her cool and aloof personality, was excitedly jumping and skipping with Chloe.

Liu Jin also bought a plane ticket to Naples.

"Hey, Mara... I'm at Toulouse airport, about to go to Naples." Just before boarding, Liu Jin received a call from Mara.

"Silvio is inviting me to dinner?"

Liu Jin was taken aback.

Silvio is Berlusconi.

He invited me to dinner?
I don't know him, and we don't seem to have any connection.

If Mara is treating, he will accept without hesitation.

But Old Berlusconi...

Well, after all, it's a country's ZL (government).

In Italy's system, the president is the highest authority, but he does not directly interfere in national affairs; these are handled by the ZL (Ziuli).

In other words, in Italy, ZL is the one with the most power.

"How about this, I'll change my plans immediately and go to Rome instead?"

"He's in Milan? Okay, then I'll go to Milan!"

Without hesitation, Liu Jin immediately changed his ticket to Milan.

Four hours later, he landed at Milan Airport.

Mara drove to the airport to pick him up, traveling light.

She drove a very low-key Cayenne and never got out of the car. Instead, she guided Liu to the parking lot by phone.

"Why does Old Bei want to see me?"

"I'm not sure, it seems like something's wrong."

Mela said, then suddenly lowered her voice and said, "However, I've heard some rumors that Silvio's financial situation is very bad right now, and Veronica is also preparing to divorce him. He's currently dealing with some bad assets... I suspect it's related to this."

"Non-performing assets?"

Old Berlusconi can't be in such a miserable state, can he?

Liu Jin remembered very clearly that this guy ranked among the top on the 06 Forbes Global Billionaires List with assets of $110 billion, equivalent to £60 billion. Even if he suffered heavy losses during the financial crisis, he shouldn't have to sell off his assets.

Berlusconi is the world's richest prime minister, if we're talking about the Guinness World Records.

Of all his assets, the three television stations are the most coveted.

Canale Cinque, Italia Uno and Rette Quatro
Italy has three public television stations, and Berlusconi alone owns two of them.

This was also a powerful weapon that enabled him to reclaim the ZL throne after two years. Owning a television station gave him unparalleled exposure.

The Guinness World Records also states that: Beckham is the ZL with the most television stations in the world.

In his early years, Liu Jin thought the Guinness World Records were pretty impressive.

Later I discovered that it could record all sorts of random things.

And then there's JN, who hosts the most PKs in the world at the same time... What's the point of such a record?
From a Chinese perspective, it's immoral and indecent; but in Western countries, it seems quite natural...

A world that laughs at poverty but not at poverty.

Yes, this trend will likely continue in China in the future.

……

The car drove directly to the San Siro stadium.

Today is March 8th, Women's Day, a Sunday.

It was also a match day for Serie A.

AC Milan vs Genoa.

Old Bei guessed that he had heard that Liu Jin was an AC Milan fan, so he naturally invited Liu Jin to watch the game.

And this match happened to be broadcast live on CCTV-5.

When Liu Jin arrived at the San Siro stadium, the match had already begun.

Mara led him directly to Old Bei's private room.

At this point, AC Milan were trailing Genoa 0-1.

Old Bei seemed very unhappy, but upon seeing Liu Jin, he still went up to him very warmly and gave him a hug.

Liu Jin now seems to have that qualification.

In terms of assets, he has more than Berlusconi at his peak...

There were very few people in the private room, only Old Bei, Liu Jin, Meloni and Mara were there to keep them company.

Coach Zhang was getting a little bored with the drowsy game, but when the camera panned across Old Bei's box, he seemed to see something and quickly told the director to pan the camera back.

"Roar, who did I just see?"
It was Berlusconi, the Italian Prime Minister, who was also watching the game.

However, the Asian man next to him…

Coach Zhang perked up, saying, "He looks kind of familiar."

This is, after all, a football match; the cameras can't always be pointed at the VIP boxes.

It only takes about ten seconds.

Back in China, Jiang Wen was watching a football game with a group of friends when, in those ten seconds, he recognized Liu Jin.

"Fuck!"

He exclaimed, "Has my brother already risen to such an impressive position?"

Jiang Wu asked in confusion, "Brother, why are you praising me for no reason?"

"You? Give me a break. My brother, did you see that just now? He's my brother in the box with Berlusconi."

Who is it? Who is it?
Everyone became interested and stared intently at the screen.

About seven or eight minutes later, the camera panned back.

Liu Jin, holding a glass of wine, stood behind the glass window of the private room, chatting and laughing with Berlusconi.

Director Zhang seemed to recognize him as well, saying, "It's Amos, the famous Chinese writer and filmmaker who lives in Europe, Dr. Amos."

Jiang Wu couldn't help but curse, "Holy shit!"
