Despite being incredibly wealthy, I want to be a prosecutor.

Top North Hotel Maesai is the best hotel in Newts County. It is a five-story building that defines itself as a three-star hotel, but it is much weaker than the international three-star standard.

The so-called far north naturally refers to the northernmost point of the country of Elephant, across the Mae Sai River, which is Tachileik, the gambling city of Myanmar.

Suite 501, the best executive suite in the Far North Hotel, is only about 50 square meters.

He did not have a separate study, but there was an office area in his bedroom.

At this moment, Zhou Hong was behind his desk in his bedroom, reading through the emails sent by Cai Gong and the expert.

With the help of a "master," the Caigong team has begun initial contact with the negotiation team of the "Taishun Group."

The email contained a rough valuation of Taishun Group's own assets.

Besides the "Zhengtai Building" valued at US$4.5 million, Taishun Group also owns Wanxiang Film Industry in Xiangguo, valued at US$1500 million. According to its simplified financial statements, it owes more than US$600 million to banks, but has virtually no other foreign debt.

Although the company has been losing money for the past few years, it owns an eight-story office building in a prime location in Bangkok's bustling commercial district.

Thai Son Group also owns 10 percent of Bangkok Airways, valued at around US$40 million.

In addition, it is understood that Shin also privately owns 9 percent of the shares of the national television channel Channel 7 in Elephant, valued at around US$24 million, and is also preparing to include it in the deal.

In Donghai, China, Taishun Group also owns some miscellaneous assets, such as the Donghai Hong Kong Plaza Hotel Apartments, which has more than 30 units and was originally intended to house the group's management team working in Donghai.

What's most absurd is that Xin also owns half of the 86th floor of the Donghai Jinsheng Building.

In short, if the private properties of "Taishun Group" and Shin were to be sold as a package, it would cost approximately US$6 million.

Of course, these are all estimates from Taishun. The specific situation will depend on whether both parties reach a preliminary agreement and sign a letter of intent.

The acquisition team then signed multiple agreements with Taishun Group, including a confidentiality agreement and an acquisition framework agreement, before they could begin to review Taishun Group's assets and accounts and make their own assessment.

In short, this will be a very long process.

Zhou Hong looked at the "Milestone Reward for Large Investment and Acquisition".

My current salary this year is 8000 multiplied by 365, which is 292 million US dollars.

The 100x card is worth 292 million US dollars, with the double buffs of "benevolent and virtuous" and "thrifty and hardworking", resulting in a 4x increase, which is nearly 12 billion US dollars.

In other words, the system reimbursed $12 billion for this acquisition, not including miscellaneous fees such as transaction taxes.

By merely acquiring Taishun and buying Xin's private property, his vision suddenly seemed somewhat narrow.

The main reason is that with the addition of the "thrifty and frugal" buff, the reimbursement limit has doubled.

My phone rang suddenly; I looked at the number—it was a message.

"Hey bro, I have another luxury mansion in Hong Kong. It's just been renovated. It's 19 Barker Road, Victoria Peak. It's a seven-story building with two five-story annexes, covering an area of ​​about 3000 square meters. The outside world estimates it at HK$4-5 million. Are you interested in buying it too?" Xin said with a smile. He added, "If you're interested, you're welcome to come and take a look anytime. Stay for a few days and experience it for yourself. I'm telling you, I haven't been there since the renovation was finished."

Zhou Hong was speechless. Good brother, was he really going to switch lives with him?

After pondering for a moment, Zhou Hong said, "Brother, to be honest, I have more than 10 billion US dollars available for investment this time. Are there any other projects that I can acquire in one package?" He added, "Regardless of whether this deal goes through or not, I want that mansion at number 19 that you mentioned."

On the other end of the microphone, Xin fell into a long silence. He had sold the Hong Kong mansion so smoothly, so why did he feel no joy at all?

At this point, Zhou Hong pondered for a moment and then said, "It seems our teams are currently in talks. How about we reach a letter of intent now and move on to the next step as soon as possible?"

Xin Man's inexplicable frustration instantly transformed into immense joy; the sooner the transaction was completed, the smaller his losses would be.

"Of course, of course." Xin replied as if afraid Zhou Hong would change his mind. "I'll inform them right away." He hung up the phone very quickly.

Zhou Hong also dialed Cai Gong's number.

"Isn't this a bit too unserious..." Ayamiya muttered under her breath.

Even if there's not much to talk about at this initial contact, shouldn't we take our time? As the buyer, we can't let the other party feel that we're more eager, right?

"Sign it. Aren't the two teams working together? Hmm, the intended acquisition price is $10 billion."

Caigong did not raise any objection to this point; intentions are intentions, and final transaction figures are transaction figures.

Exaggerating the intended figures can also enhance the team's image.

……

More than an hour later, Zhou Hongzheng was idly logging into Fantasy Westward Journey 2 and was leveling up in the East Sea with extremely laggy gameplay when his phone rang.

It was Citibank's private banking team; $10 billion had just been officially deposited into his account.

It must have been Cai Gong representing him; he just signed the letter of intent.

One billion US dollars is no small sum, and it's impossible for it to arrive instantly. Even if it's transferred from RB Fund's Citibank account to Zhou Hong's Citibank account, it would still be considered an intra-bank transfer.

However, Citibank requires head office approval and automatically submits reports to relevant departments, such as the anti-money laundering department.

The system naturally jumped out of the timeline, starting from the transfer request initiated several days ago. Thus, after several layers of review over the past few days, the money was deposited into the account precisely at the moment Cai Gong signed it.

In addition, Zhou Hong never worries about tax declarations; the RB Fund handles all the payments, and he receives the actual reimbursement figures directly from the system.

"Mr. Hong, your Family Office service has been upgraded to our bank's top-tier level. There are some supplementary agreements that require your..."

"Let's talk when I have time," Zhou Hong said, hanging up the phone.

After thinking it over, he dialed his "good brother's" number, "Brother Xin, I need to talk to you about something."

"Hmm, you said?" Xin, with her high emotional intelligence, regained her composure and smiled broadly.

These past few years have seen a rapid decline from the peak of my life, which has forged a strong heart within me.

What image do other people have of me? Do I need to care?

As the saying goes, if someone in the world slanders me, deceives me, insults me, laughs at me, belittles me, despises me, hates me, or cheats me.

Just tolerate him, let him be, let him do as he pleases, avoid him, be patient with him, respect him, ignore him, and wait a few more years, then you'll see what happens to him.

"Brother Xin, let me tell you the truth. I don't think Taishun Group and your personal assets will cost more than 6 million US dollars, which is lower than my expectations this time! Here's what we'll do: you find a project worth about 5 million US dollars to join us, and I'll buy it all in one package. Oh, that 5 million US dollar project, I'll transfer the money to you. Buy it quickly, and just give me a receipt first."

My eyelids feel like they're being torn apart, and my heart feels like it's being struck repeatedly by a sledgehammer. The world slanders me, deceives me, insults me, laughs at me, belittles me, despises me, hates me, and cheats me.

Just tolerate him, let him be, let him do as he pleases, avoid him, be patient with him, respect him, and ignore him...

Finally, he jumped up and started cursing:

I curse your ancestors! Are you buying cabbage at the market?

You dare ask for a receipt? A receipt my ass! Your whole family is a receipt!

But all of this was just his fantasy.

After a long while, he let out a long sigh, "Hong, are you serious?"

"Yes, of course I'm serious." He cheated me out of 5 million US dollars, the system should reimburse that cost; it's the fee incurred by this transaction.

I didn't suffer any actual loss, but there's bound to be some wrangling going on.

Especially with the Fifth Madam acting as an intermediary.

"Hmm? Here's what we'll do: I'll give you $2 million, and the Fifth Madam will give you $3 million. Both of you, help me find projects to include in this acquisition package. Hmm, I'll transfer your $2 million to you through the Fifth Madam."

It's safer this way, and even if we get scammed, it's better to be tricked by the Fifth Madam, because the Fifth Madam is a beauty...

My good friend seems speechless?

Zhou Hong coughed and said, "Brother Xin, thank you so much for your help."

"You...you should rest first..." Xin hung up the phone, clearly feeling that his "good brother" was probably drunk, which was why he made the idea on a whim, speaking incoherently and impulsively.
