Chapter 750 The poorest person
In fact, it is not difficult to discuss the loan. As long as Jing Jian can repay the loan of $6,800. However, those strictly controlled materials cannot be provided at all. After a little consideration, Muschaf was ready to refuse.
But at this moment, Jing Jian seemed to be complaining casually: "I knew there would be no pie from the sky. I was really greedy at that time. I thought the conditions were good, and I could get a loan, but I could also purchase the materials on these lists, just increasing the amount of US dollar bonds to 500 million US dollars..."
"What?" Muschaf, Nona and the others exclaimed in unison. Smith, who was accompanying him, also looked at Jing Jian thoughtfully. This condition was not mentioned at all during the negotiations.
"Sorry, I need to have a phone call with the country." Muschaf immediately paused the negotiations. After more than ten minutes, he returned to the room with a smile on his face, "Mr. Branbull, I want to ask, when is your specific purchase time?"
Jing Jian smiled slightly and understood that the candy he threw had an effect. "I originally promised you before the end of the year. Although I promised 200 million at that time and now 500 million, I made a lot of oil futures. Before the end of September, right? If you agree, I can sign the contract now."
Nona's joy could no longer be concealed, and she didn't expect that there would be unexpected surprises. Her watery blue eyes looked at Jing Jian with a hint of gratitude and complex expression. If everything went well, the Soviet Union would not lose anything. The real loss was the hundreds of thousands of dollars of cash that Andre had swept away from the vault. As for the more than one million dollars withdrawn through Jing Jian? Since Jing Jian didn't ask, Nona and the others would not take the initiative to withdraw.
And that $68 million loan can get $816,000 with interest alone. In fact, this short-term loan is no longer a loss. I didn’t expect it to increase the purchase of $300 million in bonds? Nona couldn’t help but feel a ridiculous. Did Andre really talk about a good business before he absconding?
Muschaf smiled and said, "I have asked the instructions just now that we, the Soviet Union, can accept this loan contract. But we have two requirements: first, the interest on this new loan needs to be converted into US dollars to pay?"
Jing Jian thought for a while: "This is OK, but I hope to use the existing London market price to determine a fixed number. If it is your official price, it will not be acceptable."
"Of course, mutual benefit, we will never let our friends suffer."
In fact, considering the depreciation of the ruble in the future, the interest on this mere US dollar is negligible. However, considering that the fighting nations should not be too stimulating the future, Jing Jian still chose to give in to such small details.
Muschaf continued: "Also, we can meet some of the supplies on the list, but all of them are certainly impossible. I hope you can understand and it is better to make some replacements."
"Oh? Then what can you provide?"
"Look..."
“…”
After several hours of negotiations, the result was finally achieved. Jing Jian finally smiled and said, "That extra loan is the same as last time. Please purchase all your construction steel!"
Muschaf smiled: "Absolutely no problem!"
The first batch of more than 20,000 tons of rebar from the Soviet Union had been shipped to the Chinese terminal and was immediately snatched away by the domestic snatch. The infrastructure maniac finally showed his fangs, and the gap in the domestic market was too big. And Dafeng Steel does not seem to be a steel manufacturer, but rather a dealer of imported steel?
...
After seeing off Muschaf, Nona and others, Jing Jian stretched and nodded to Smith who was left with a smile: "Smith, finally solved this matter. Get ready, let's sign the contract tomorrow."
Smith laughed because the word "selling contract" is quite vivid. In fact, although the anti-acquisition of Wang An computer was a victory, at the beginning, it was also an accident, which led to Jing Jian's current funds being quite tight.
But then again, Jing Jian had a lot of cash at this time. Blue Star Network made hundreds of millions of dollars in the futures, and the funds that were constantly cashing out from oil futures were also over 1 billion US dollars. However, from the Wang family and the Chinese family, the investment in Yikai's three major strategic projects, the standard continued to burn money. This time, buying US dollar bonds, and subsequent investments from Hengsha Chemical Factory and the automobile factory, all of which required money. Therefore, Jing Jian was preparing to accept huge loans led by Kewell, with a total of up to US$2.5 billion in financial institutions.
It should be noted that the $2.5 billion is not a very simple loan, but a package loan agreement. Among them are short-term, long-term, and phased repayments, and repayment with principal and interest; there are very pure loans, and convertible bonds; there are high interest rates (because Jing Jian can no longer come up with enough loan mortgages), and there are preferential interest, but there are betting agreements.
Anyway, it’s so complicated that I won’t burn my mind here. This is the same as the loan agreement between Jing Jian and the Soviet Union at that time. The complexity of the contract text can make people doubt life, but in fact it’s the trappings everywhere. However, after weighing the pros and cons, Jing Jian still decided to accept the loan. Why did this make him have new ambitions?
Smith couldn't control Jing Jian's decision, but as a lawyer, he still wanted to fulfill his responsibility to remind him: "Boss, we can serve you in terms of law. But now you give me the feeling that it is like building a building on the beach. Whenever there is a fluctuation, the entire building will fall to the ground."
Jing Jian certainly understood Smith's concern. He smiled slightly and shrugged: "Smith, I already owed more than 4 billion rubles of the Soviet Union, and I will still owed 2.5 billion US dollars tomorrow? The outside world says that I have been the richest man in the world, but in fact I am the poorest person in the world."
Smith was immediately amused by Jing Jian. From a certain perspective, Jing Jian's words are indeed correct. Penalty is not the poorest, and owing a lot of debts is the real poverty: "Boss, how many people hope to be as poor as you?"
Amid laughter, Smith changed the topic: "Boss, why did you order the tanker and drilling platform this time? The news sent back from Frossoya, isn't it said that it's not optimistic? What I said... I'm saying, isn't that a waste?"
Jing Jian smiled: "Smith, do you believe in luck?"
