Chapter 107 Show your minions and defeat ADM

ADM was completely defeated.

Connett sat helplessly in the office. At this moment, no matter how quick he reacted, it would be of no avail.

No matter what you do, you can't make up for the mistakes that have been made.

The inventory in hand is the bargaining chip that ADM finally attracted after nearly 10 months. The funds consumed accounted for almost all of ADM's cash flow.

This even includes a special budget of US$3 billion taken from the May Conference.

But now, these have all manifested themselves into useless soybeans.

It doesn’t matter if you sell it, or it doesn’t matter if you don’t sell it.

If you want to sell, losses are inevitable, and with the support of China's large amount of funds, a collapse of the market is absolutely impossible, and market panic will not be aroused at all.

In the past, speculators had enough time to follow COFCO's pace and ship goods little by little, and then fill these soybeans into COFCO's grain reserve warehouses at gradually lower prices.

They may lose money, some even suffer huge losses, but they will definitely survive.

He shook his head slightly and said:

"I don't want to discuss with you what the May Council will do with me, but since I'm here, I think my sincerity is enough."

These Chinese people...their strategy is not over yet.

Therefore, there is actually only one choice left for him:

If you bite the bullet and ship the goods, you can get back as much money as you can.

Hearing his words, the man opposite smiled slightly and replied:

"Mr. Connett, you don't need to be so anxious."

The man's answer was extremely concise, and Connett shook his head helplessly, knowing that he could no longer bargain.

After finally confirming his identity, higher-level staff finally walked into the interrogation room.

ADM-Argentina is facing significant losses and a large number of local subsidiaries have gone bankrupt.

"...Of course I know, but losers are also valuable."

"Now is when they are at their weakest."

But if you don’t sell it and keep so many soybeans in your hands, what can you do?

You must know that the so-called production reduction is purely false news. This year is a bumper harvest year for soybeans. When the new round of soybeans begins to enter the market, the soybeans in hand will just rot in the warehouse.

"It's just that the time is not yet ripe and we need more patience."

But soon, this idea was nipped in the cradle by him.

Four cargo ships loaded with soybeans arrived in Buenos Aires, and all of these soybeans came from ADM.

It was the rush hour after get off work, and the streets were gradually filled with young girls with cool clothes and good looks, but he no longer had any admiration.

——

On the contrary, how can a loser deserve a reward?

"Mr. Connett, you take yourself too seriously—those people behind you also take themselves too seriously."

"This is a joke..."

Can I really get out of that small, dark reception room safely?

Connet doubted this.

While examining Connett's expression, he asked:

"Tell me about it?"

The man smiled and replied:

"If possible, I would actually like to try it."

The man replied calmly and decisively.

They have no interest in me at all.

"Now, I hope to communicate with you on an equal footing - because the deal we are about to reach is likely to change the food pattern of the entire world."

"Believe me, you will never regret trading my life for such a major opportunity."

"Why should I know? You have just joined the core group of the May Party for less than two months, and you have no experience in any large-scale activities."

"Don't you want to know what I'm going to trade for my life?"

Even if it is used to extract oil, the market cannot digest so many raw materials.

"I don't want to know."

What he really got was the worst consequences that he had never imagined.

Connet was arrested and prosecuted by a certain agency.

Two weeks later, a series of explosive news was released simultaneously.

"This is the root of your failure, isn't it?"

A few hours later, in an interrogation room of a national security office.

COFCO entered Buenos Aires and established its first office...

Connet was stunned. For a moment, he didn't understand the meaning of this man's words.

So, he spoke first and said:

"I have important information. This information may help you enter the North American grain market and get a large share."

"You say it first."

The ultimate goal failed completely, and even the previously expected "sub-level benefits" were not achieved.

No company can eat these soybeans.

The only thing I can do is to use all my chips to bet on whether the other party will be lenient to me.

"Destroy ADM...why don't you say destroy the United States directly?"

The other party does have reasons to be contemptuous, but who makes himself a complete loser?

…

Connet's eyes gradually brightened.

No one would spare a man who orchestrated a dangerous and vicious operation that attempted to destroy an entire country's food market.

"It is true that we have formulated many response tactics, but you have to remember that they are only at the tactical level. Strategically, we have never taken you too seriously."

Hearing Connett's words, the man's face showed undisguised disappointment.

So, he decisively said:

"It has to do with ADM's North American layout."

However, the other party's reaction was completely beyond his expectation.

And as long as they are alive, ADM, Cargill, or any other large international grain merchants will not be able to enter this market.

As soon as he saw the other person's clothes and demeanor, Connett immediately judged that this was the person who could really save his life.

An idea even came to his mind:

Otherwise, how about continuing to live here?

Live as an ordinary person.

He stood up from the chair again, looked into Connett's eyes and said:

"Mr. Connett, I rarely repeat a sentence twice, but today, I still want to give you a piece of advice: Don't take yourself too seriously."

"In this case, do you still think it is necessary for us to refer to the nodes you mentioned step by step to compete and seize the market?"

So, he had to sit down again, widened his eyes and asked:

"You want to destroy ADM directly? Do you know how big he is? Do you know how childish your words are?"

Thinking of this, he said:

"What you said makes sense, but... I still suggest you listen to my information."

Having said this, the man finally seemed to have some interest.

I thought that such "surrender" was a smart choice, but I never expected that it was a disguised surrender.

Then, he walked out of the office of ADM Shanghai headquarters lonely and walked to the crowded street.

The butterfly from the east flapped its wings, and the storm in South America suddenly rose.

Then, he walked resolutely in one direction...
