Donnie obviously didn't expect Xiao Zheng to be so blatant. In his opinion, and even in his father's expectation, his master should at least be polite first.
What was even more out of Donnie's expectations was that Xiao Zheng's price tag was too high.
As far as Donnie knew, the Yan Family had only invested a total of 10 billion. But his master was asking for 20 billion.
This was real money after all. This is not the so-called market value!
Lin Family's market value is 1.5 trillion!
Can Lin Laoyao really come up with 1.5 trillion?
He couldn't even come up with 500 billion!
Market value and actual capital flow have always been two different things.
"Master – you're asking for too much." Donnie took a drag on his cigarette and frowned. "Dad didn't give me such a big authority."
"If you don't have money then don't show off in front of me." Xiao Zheng glared at Donnie. "Your master isn't a poor man right now. Can you enter my eyes without 10 or 20 billion?"
Donnie smiled and scratched his head: "I heard that Linghu Zhu went back to the Northeast to look for investment. Although several rich people agreed to invest, it's only about three to five hundred million. "
After a short pause, Donnie's attitude was very proper: "According to my estimation, Linghu Zhu can pull in 2 billion at most. No more than that."
Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Brat, you're well prepared."
Donnie smiled: "Master, don't underestimate me. In the past year, I've done two big projects on Wall Street involving billions of funds. "
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng was also slightly surprised.
It seems like he is the same as Lin Laoyao, speeding up the training of future generations.
Is it because he feels that the future generations are good enough to be independent? Or is it because the current situation is unstable and wants to train a successor as soon as possible?
Xiao Zheng clapped his hands and said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes, "Amazing."
Donnie is not stupid. Hearing the perfunctory tone in Xiao Zheng's voice, he curled his lips: "Master, are you bickering with me?"
"Am I that obvious?" Xiao Zheng smiled playfully.
Donnie took a sip of tea and said, "Master, I know you're in a difficult situation right now."
"Nonsense," Xiao Zheng said with a straight face. "Master, I'm eating and sleeping well now. How is it difficult?"
"Because your enemy is too strong. Even Mr. Justin got off midway. "Donnie didn't gloat over Xiao Zheng's misfortune. Instead, he looked worried for Xiao Zheng.
Xiao Zheng slapped Donnie's forehead. "You know a lot!"
After a pause, Xiao Zheng opened the curtains and said with his hands on his hips, "Tell me why you're here."
"Invest," Downey said firmly. "My father appointed me as the president of Asia. And the Hua Xia market is the first fortress I want to break. "
"I suggest you go to Southeast Asia first." Xiao Zheng shook his head. "Hua Xia's current situation is very complicated. It's very easy to get wiped out if we enter."
"That's why I found a big backer like Master." Downey chuckled. "Follow Master and you'll have meat to eat."
"Didn't you just say that I'm in a difficult situation?" Xiao Zheng glanced at Downey. This little guy's PR lines are getting better and better.
"But I believe Master will pass it smoothly. Also, my father and I have the same opinion. I'm optimistic about the big entertainment project, "Downey said. "Of course, the most important reason is that Master is only a participant in the big entertainment project, not the leader. So I want a piece of the pie. "
If it was a project led by Xiao Zheng, Downey wouldn't be so eager to join. That would destroy the master-disciple relationship between him and Xiao Zheng.
For some people, they wouldn't be poor if they didn't earn a few dollars, but without the friendship, they would be extremely lonely.
Downey was such a person.
He valued friendship and was very similar to Xiao Zheng.
Of course, Xiao Zheng also understood Downey's intention.
He wanted a share of the big entertainment project. It was also at a critical juncture that he gave the entertainment project a helping hand.
When Shang Yao withdrew her investment, Linghu Zhu was like an ant on a hot pan. He even pulled in investments at all costs. Even if it meant sacrificing the leadership of the project to a certain extent. But without enough funds, it would be even more difficult.
Downey's large amount of funds would not only solve the urgent need, but also give the project enough confidence to expand. At the same time, it provided a green channel for the Downey family to enter the Asian market.
It's not a joke to say that all aspects of the big entertainment project are like a huge network market. Once you enter, you will have an amazing network.
This is also the resource that Downey needs. To some extent, it's even more important than a certain amount of wealth.
Looking at the Hua Xia craze that has emerged all over the world, the influx of Wall Street funds into the Hua Xia market has become an unstoppable trend.
But who can control this huge amount of funds depends on who is more capable.
Obviously, Xiao Zheng is such a capable and trustworthy backer.
At least Gandalf trusts him enough to support him with a lot of money.
Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette and asked: "What is your bottom line?"
"Eight billion." Downey directly turned halfway and then turned again. Then, without waiting for Xiao Zheng to respond, Downey continued to speak. "But I've already told my father in advance. Because I'm talking about cooperation with Master. I want to raise the bottom line to ten billion. That two billion is my filial piety to you. "
Xiao Zheng playfully said: "You really know how to use both the carrot and the stick."
Downey laughed: "I learned it from Master."
"Eighty is eighty. Master won't bargain with you. "Xiao Zheng took a drag of his cigarette and sat down on the table. "But there is one thing I need to make clear to you."
"In the Hua Xia market, we only have the right to receive dividends, not the right to operate. We can even give up the voting rights. "Downey said in a very magnanimous manner.
Xiao Zheng smiled: "Kid, you're quite good at negotiating." After a pause, he asked. "Then what are you going to buy with this eight billion?"
"The right to operate in North America in five or ten years." Downey said one word at a time. "Master, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. My father is very interested in the globalization of major entertainment projects. Once we enter the North American market in the future, the returns will be extremely rich. "
Xiao Zheng sighed, secretly cursing at Gandalf's sharp eyes. Spending such a large sum of money just for the layout in five or even ten years.
And this money, this strategy, is probably to pave the way for his son?
Even if the big entertainment project doesn't get the expected returns, the connections gained in the Hua Xia market and the partnership with Xiao Zheng are worth the ticket price.
"Okay. These are all negotiable. "Xiao Zheng nodded. Originally, he wanted to arrange a meeting between Downey and Linghu Zhu. Donnie stood up and said with a chuckle. "Master, where is Xiao Ma? I want to have a cup of tea with him. "
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng became furious on the spot. Kicking Downey's ass: "Kid, do you want to drink tea or wine?!"
