Xiao Yunhai put the wine glass on the tray and continued, "Perhaps everyone is more or less surprised. You, Xiao Yunhai, have always been so lazy that you don't even see us on a normal day. Why did you suddenly invite everyone to drink tonight?"
Wu Yong smiled and said, "That's right, Mr. Xiao. Do you have a way to get rich? That's why you gathered everyone here."
The moment Xiao Yunhai heard, he immediately gave Wu Yong a thumbs up and said, "CEO Wu, you're simply too smart. That's right, you guessed it right. We're all good friends, so I won't beat around the bush. As you all know, I've won a lot of money in the past two days, but I don't know how to spend it. After thinking about it, I finally decided to set up an international bank. However, with my ability, it's beyond my ability to make a bank famous. That's why I invited everyone here. I wonder if everyone is interested in participating in this grand undertaking? "
"So, you're going to set up a bank. This is no small matter. "
"You don't say. If this really works out, it'll definitely be beneficial to us. At the very least, we'll have a lot of room to maneuver in terms of funds. "
Everyone began to whisper under the stage.
An Arab tycoon asked, "Mr. Xiao, I want to know what benefits we'll get from setting up this bank. Also, how will the shares be distributed? "
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and smiled. "Of course, there are many benefits to setting up a bank. Other than the profits it can bring us, what I value more is the combination of everyone's interests. In the business world, the clouds are treacherous. No one dares to say that their life will be smooth sailing. If we can set up a business organization through this bank, we'll all help whoever is in trouble. This way, won't it benefit everyone? "
"That's right. As for Mr. Xiao's plan to set up a bank, I wholeheartedly support it. "
"Of course, I support it too."
"After everyone forms a community, if one person is in trouble, everyone will help. It's definitely a win-win situation."
Everyone voiced their opinions.
Xiao Yunhai smiled. "There's a good opportunity right now. The famous Barkel Bank in Europe and America is in trouble, and its stock price has plummeted. We can buy it. Then, with this as the foundation, it would continue to grow and eventually form an international bank like Citigroup that spread all over the world. What do you think? "
"Mr. Xiao, how much does it cost to buy Barkel? What about our shares? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "I'm not too sure about the exact amount. As for the issue of shares, whoever paid more would definitely own more shares. I'm prepared to invest 600 billion USD as a deposit. "
"Wow, Mr. Xiao is so rich."
"600 billion USD. That should be enough to get the controlling shares."
"Of course. Would Mr Xiao do such a thankless thing if he didn't have control of the shares?"
The reason why Xiao Yunhai invited these 18 tycoons and did not include the others was also a decision made after careful consideration.
If he wanted to control the shares, he had to ensure that he owned more than 50% of the shares. If he invited some super-rich tycoons, then his 600 billion USD might not be enough.
The four Arab tycoons discussed for a while and said, "Mr. Xiao, we are very interested in this bank. We are willing to invest 200 billion USD."
One had to admit that the Arab businessmen were indeed rich. 200 billion USD was enough to buy Barkel Bank.
Xiao Yunhai smiled. "That's great. Our bank will definitely do investment business in the future. The Arab countries have no shortage of oil. When the time comes, please help us introduce a few big oil fields to our bank. Then, our bank's profits will be very impressive. "
"No problem."
When the others saw that even the Arab tycoons were tempted, they all expressed their desire to join.
Xiao Yunhai and Christy looked at each other and smiled at the same time. They knew that the matter was already half done.
"Since everyone is interested, then let's send out a capable team to take down Barkel Bank first. Then, we can discuss the details. Our four Arab friends have invested 200 billion USD. Together with my 600 billion USD, we have 800 billion USD. It's more than enough to buy Barkel Bank. Come, everyone, let's toast to the success of Barkel Bank. "
"Cheers."
Then, everyone toasted each other. The atmosphere was very lively.
Because everyone was ready to cooperate, they were all very enthusiastic about each other.
Wu Yong smiled. "Mr. Xiao, I didn't expect you to invite everyone to this party to buy Barkel Bank. That's really surprising. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "I made the decision this morning. With a bank of my own, it's convenient to do anything. "
Zhang Weikang nodded and said, "Yes. Everyone knows that banks make a lot of money, but very few people have enough capital to open a bank. Today, with your help, everyone will work together. I believe that there will be no problem. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled. "I hope it'll be successful."
After the party, Xiao Yunhai and everyone sat in a conference room to discuss their individual investment amounts, percentages, and related matters.
In the end, they raised a total of 11,160 billion USD. They quickly formed a board of directors. Xiao Yunhai, who held more than 50% of the shares, was the CEO. Then, they bought Barkel Bank as quickly as possible. After they got the bank, they found a professional to be the CEO. They wanted to build the bank's reputation as quickly as possible.
Everyone talked back and forth. The discussion was very lively.
The meeting went on until two o 'clock in the morning. Then, everyone left reluctantly.
On the way back, Xiao Yunhai rubbed his temples and said, "These people are amazing. In just one night, they settled the internal management rules of a bank. Damn, there are more than 200 rules. That's amazing. "
The internal management rules were very scientific and detailed.
For example, the rule on the restriction of loans to internal staff clearly stated that no shareholder could lend more money than their own shares.
If the amount exceeded, they would need to find an internal guarantor. If the loan was not repaid, the guarantor would be responsible for it.
For example, if a shareholder invested 100 billion USD and encountered financial problems in the future, they could only take out a loan of 100 billion USD at a very low interest rate. They would also have to repay the loan on time. If they wanted to take out a loan of 200 billion USD, they could either provide collateral or find one or several internal shareholders to use their shares as collateral. Of course, their shares had to be more than 200 billion USD.
This way, there would not be any bad debts. At the very least, they could use their shares to repay the loan.
The reason why Xiao Yunhai felt that this group of people was formidable was because there were more than a hundred of such rules and regulations. They were simply too meticulous. Not to mention one night, even if he was given half a month, he would not be able to come up with them.
Christy smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, they are all leaders in the field of economics. It's not surprising that they have such meticulous thoughts. This bank is not just a simple money-making tool for us. It has to play the role of a large financial group. The total assets of all the shareholders tonight are more than 20 trillion USD. If we can form a large financial group like the one in Europe, your status in the business world will definitely rise. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I will manage it well. Anyway, I will leave the details to you guys. I just need to invite everyone to a place for a meeting every year and have fun for a few days. "
Christy said, "That's right. As long as you can show the world that you have the ability to gather everyone to attend the meeting, it will be fine. This is very good for our economic security. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "To put it bluntly, you are just scaring people. I understand that. Madam Christy, I will have to trouble you with the acquisition of Barkel Bank. "
Christy smiled and said, "No problem. I will try to buy the entire Barkel Bank before the World Cup ends. When the time comes, the 19 of you will hold a press conference for the whole world. I think the world will be shocked. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "I am really looking forward to it."
