Star Sky Hotel conference room.
Zhong Ziyu, who had returned from the Alpha Centauri Colonial Exploration Foundation building, smiled and placed the results in front of Lu Zhou.
"It has been negotiated. Fuxing Mining Company will collect all debts at the price of 500 million credits, including ours and those in the hands of individual investors. Then, we only need to pay a fine of 100 million credits to the Pan-Asian Cooperation for the Alpha Centauri Colonial Exploration Foundation, and we can acquire the entire company at the symbolic price of 1 credit.
"As for the future, whether you plan to merge Fuxing Mining directly into Star Sky Technology or through other means of mergers and acquisitions, it is up to you."
"I still don't understand." Lu Zhou glanced at the document on the table. He then looked at Zhong Ziyu, who was smiling, and said in a slightly confused tone, "How do you plan to solve the bad debts of the AIIB and other banks? Or … What's in it for you guys? "
"Bad debts? I don't think this is a bad debt. At most, it can only be regarded as a temporary loss. "Zhong Ziyu smiled and continued," You underestimate your own influence. If you build this starship … For such a high-quality project, we even plan to invest a little more. Of course, the premise is that we can see certain results. But I believe this should be easy for you. "
Lu Zhou turned his gaze to the contract in his hand.
On the last line of the third page of the contract, there was a supplementary agreement on the debt of 10 billion credits. After completing the acquisition of the Alpha Centauri Colonial Exploration Foundation, if there were still some creditors who were unwilling to give up their claims, these claims would still have legal benefits, and they would be transferred to the "Noah's Ark" in a certain proportion.
However, they would no longer have the right to dispose of this part of the assets.
If Fuxing Mining Company really sold the "Noah's Ark" as scrap iron as it claimed, they might be able to get one or two hundred credits on corporate bonds with a face value of one million.
Of course, if Fuxing Mining Company was acquired by another company that planned to continue to complete the "Noah's Ark" project, and the entire plan to colonize Alpha Centauri was finally completed …
Many people would go crazy because of this.
"In short, you don't have to worry about money. I estimate that you may not even spend 300 million in the end. "Zhong Ziyu smiled and continued," At least our AIIB is willing to continue to hold these corporate bonds. We believe that the unfinished 'Noah's Ark' project will be carried forward in a new form in your hands. "
Lu Zhou said, "I don't care, but aren't you afraid that your store will be smashed?"
Especially those who cut their own flesh and sold the corporate bonds in their hands.
When they found out that the things they had just sold, which were originally regarded as waste paper, had once again risen in price to the ceiling, they would probably have a mental breakdown …
"Investment is about being willing to lose. How can there be a project that is 100% profitable? If there is, please introduce him to me. " Zhong Ziyu coughed lightly and continued with the same expression on his face, "As I said, of course, you can be kind and tell them directly that you plan to buy the Noah's Ark and transform it into a faster and stronger colonial ship to take our civilization to a more distant world. But, do you know what this means? "
"I can tell you that this means that the corporate bonds in their hands will no longer be worthless waste paper from the moment you declared it. And the decision you made out of goodwill will make you have to pay hundreds of times the price to buy such a company that was about to go bankrupt. "
Looking at Lu Zhou, who was thinking, he paused and continued.
"Besides, haven't you noticed?"
Lu Zhou: "Noticed what?"
"This is a result that everyone is satisfied with." Zhong Ziyu shrugged and continued, "People can finally go home. They don't have to pitch tents and camp on the street. Order has also been restored in Tiangong City. There is no need to send a group of special police to accompany them there. And institutions, including the AIIB … Losses are not terrible, what is terrible is losing everything. "
Maybe in the end, they could still make a small profit because of the price difference when trading these corporate bonds.
"It's up to you." Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "I don't care about your things, but I will complete the Noah's Ark project."
On the way to Tau Ceti, he could go to Alpha Centauri.
Anyway, with the warp speed technology he had mastered, it was not particularly difficult to go to these two places.
"Okay, thank you." Zhong Ziyu looked at Lu Zhou, who was sitting behind the desk, and said jokingly, "My future is all on you."
…
Just as Zhong Ziyu said, in the face of this fairly good contract, almost all investors chose to stop losses and sold their corporate bonds to Fuxing Mining Company at a certain ratio.
After the news that the Alpha Centauri Colonial Exploration Foundation was acquired by Fuxing Mining Company was released, this time bomb buried in the Pan-Asian and even global financial world was finally completely removed.
According to Zhong Ziyu, the head office was very satisfied with his work, and they even asked him to send his regards to Lu Zhou. After Lu Zhou returned to Earth, he would visit him in person.
Lu Zhou just smiled and didn't say much.
Before completing the first complete version of the warp speed engine, he might not go back for a while.
On the other hand, due to the major change in the senior management of the Heavenly Palace City Hall, the seminar on the development plan of Europa finally came to an end.
Although Lu Zhou did not participate in the second half of the meeting, he heard that they quarreled quite fiercely at the meeting, and they almost fought several times.
When it came to this matter, Professor Wu Qinglai, who also came from the academic community on Earth like Lu Zhou, had a contemptuous expression on his face the whole time, as if he was talking about a group of barbarians who did not understand etiquette.
On the day that the seminar was announced to end, due to lack of funds, the final dinner was quite sloppy. Just after eight o 'clock, people left one after another in low spirits.
After eating at the dinner, Lu Zhou was about to return to his room, but at this moment, Professor Wu Qinglai suddenly followed up from behind and spoke with a smile on his face.
"Um … Academician Lu."
Lu Zhou: "What's wrong?"
"When are you planning to return to Earth?"
Looking at him strangely, Lu Zhou replied casually, "I still have something to do. I plan to go back after a while, what's the matter?"
Wu Qinglai quickly said, "No, no, I'm just concerned about you."
Looking at this guy's hesitant appearance, Lu Zhou sighed and spoke impatiently.
"Just say it, don't talk nonsense."
Seeing that Lu Zhou saw through his thoughts, Wu Qinglai scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, coughed, and said, "Um … Here's the thing, didn't I buy some tickets some time ago?"
The so-called tickets naturally referred to the tickets to the Noah's Ark. Because of the hype some time ago, he was quite proud of his investment vision.
Lu Zhou was slightly taken aback. "… You haven't sold them yet?"
Wu Qinglai said with an awkward expression, "I thought it would increase."
Lu Zhou: "…"
Wu Qinglai whispered, "I just want to ask if you have any inside information … Does the AIIB plan to take back the Noah's Ark tickets? Or is there any … compensation plan? "
The expression on Lu Zhou's face became even stranger. He stared at him for a long time and suddenly spoke.
"Why do you think I have inside information?"
Wu Qinglai's expression was a little awkward. He coughed and continued, "Didn't the president of the Tiangong City branch of the AIIB come to the Star Sky Hotel yesterday? I just saw it … "
"Then you saw him enter my room?"
Looking at the faint smile on Lu Zhou's face, Wu Qinglai quickly waved his hand.
"I swear! I definitely didn't mean to see it! It just happened — "
"There's no plan. If you want to keep it, then keep it. It's a good lesson."
Lu Zhou was too lazy to care about these trivial things. He left the frowning Professor Wu Qinglai on the spot and walked slowly in the direction of the elevator.
Lu Zhou felt that his hint was obvious enough.
As for whether he could seize the opportunity …
It was all up to him.
