It was indeed very fragrant.
However, the problem was that this also made everyone present feel extremely uncomfortable.
He had come here to get a share of the order, but in the end, he had to pay for the order himself. Moreover, he had spent 80 billion, but in the end, he could only get 30 billion USD. This was too unbearable!
"I know that my methods this time are a bit unethical, but if I didn't do this, I'm afraid that my woman would still be begging at the door of your bank!" Boss Jia smiled, "Yes, everyone here, including myself, is a pure businessman. There is only a pure relationship of interest. Since that's the case, why don't we be straightforward? As long as there are benefits, we can share it together. Why care about the rest?"
Although Boss Jia's words sounded very rude, they were very true. It also explained why he used this method. After all, the banks of the four consortiums in Fusang avoided Xiamu. If Boss Jia didn't use this method, they wouldn't have the chance to sit together.
Speaking of which, the four consortiums were the ones who tortured Xiamu first.
Of course, the most important thing was that this deal was indeed profitable. 80 billion USD of loans, plus 30 billion USD of orders, a total of 110 billion USD of transactions. This was enough to increase the annual performance of the four consortiums by several percentage points.
This was the temptation that the four consortiums couldn't resist.
However, there was still a very important problem that needed to be solved.
"How can we believe that we can successfully recover this 80 billion USD loan?" Mitsui Xiuyi narrowed his eyes and asked, "By the way, don't tell me how broadband can make money. Even if what you said is true, with such a huge investment in infrastructure, it will take at least 10 years to recover the cost. This is full of uncertainty!"
"I need a genuine guarantee!"
Yes, this was the key to the entire cooperation.
An 80 billion USD loan was a huge expense for any consortium.
If the loan could be paid off smoothly, it would be a huge profit. If this loan was put into the financial market, it wouldn't be a problem to turn 80 billion USD into 160 billion USD.
Coupled with the 30 billion USD order, it was indeed very tempting.
On the other hand, if the 80 billion USD couldn't be repaid, the four consortiums would suffer a huge loss.
Therefore, the four consortiums needed a genuine guarantee. If Xiamu Network could not repay the loan, then the collateral would belong to the bank.
It was just that Mitsui Hidei didn't know what the Daqian had to offer that was worth 80 billion USD as a guarantee.
"Yes!" Boss Jia nodded. Then, Natsume Haruko, who was behind him, placed a document on the table.
"What is this?" Mitsui Hidei took the document from the table and glanced at it. Then, he sucked in a breath of cold air. What he saw was 40% of 51 Search's shares.
51sSearch could be said to be the target of any investor in the world. After going public, the stock price of 51sSearch had been quite strong. Now, it had soared to 62 USD per share, equivalent to a total market value of 62 billion USD.
Who would have thought that when this stock was first listed a few months ago, it was only worth 12 billion USD? Moreover, the stock market generally thought that the stock price was overvalued!
It was also because of the skyrocketing stock price that 51sSearch had become the most sought after stock in the market. Everyone wanted to buy 51sSearch's shares, and all shareholders were reluctant to sell 51sSearch's shares because 51sSearch represented the increase of wealth.
Because of the small number of shares sold, the stock price of 51sSearch had been in a state of rising, which actually contributed to the rise of the stock price. This was a bull stock. The more it rose, the higher it rose. Once it rose, it could not be stopped. Unless there was some negative news or the entire stock market exploded, then it would fall.
Now, some people estimated that 51sSearch's stock price could even exceed 100 USD by the end of 1997. Then, the value of 40% of Boss Jia's shares on the table would be 40 billion USD.
Looking at the shares that Boss Jia placed on the table, everyone present swallowed at the same time. Then, Mitsui Hidei shook his head and said, "These shares can't be used as a guarantee for 80 billion USD. At most, they can only be used as 24 billion USD!"
Obviously, Mitsui Hidei calculated according to 51sSearch's current stock price.
"At least 40 billion USD!" Boss Jia said calmly, "51sSearch will have a big announcement soon. When the time comes, I guarantee that the stock price will rise above 100 USD!"
"Gasp!" Everyone present gasped. Boss Jia was the chairman of 51sSearch. Then, what he said was equivalent to revealing the inside story of 51sSearch to everyone present. This was the legendary insider trading!
Although insider trading was illegal, how could the law control them?
Moreover, if everyone present did not say anything, who would know that there was insider trading involved?
After all, 99% of the insider trading in the world was not known to the public.
If they bought 51sSearch's shares now, wouldn't they be waiting for the stock price to double?!
Thinking of this, everyone present could not help but want to call their investment department and immediately buy 51sSearch's shares.
At the same time, they also understood that Boss Jia was directly doing them a big favor. After all, with this news, they might be able to make a few hundred million USD profit.
For a moment, everyone was grateful to Boss Jia. In addition, 51sSearch's shares were really valuable. As long as there was no stock market disaster, it was almost impossible for the stock price to fall. So, everyone nodded and said, "Okay, 40 billion USD it is!"
If the future Boss Jia really could not pay back this amount of money, then they might be able to make a lot of money by buying these shares.
Then, where would Boss Jia get the 40 billion USD guarantee from?
Everyone looked at our Boss Jia curiously.
Maybe Boss Jia was planning to use the whole Daqian Group as collateral!
This was not impossible. After all, the Daqian Group was thriving now. It was almost one of the fastest growing companies in the 1990s. Such a company had a lot of potential!
If they could get the Daqian Group as a guarantor, everyone present even had the idea of destroying the profits of Xiamu Group in the future, and then forcing the Daqian Group to be unable to pay back the money. Finally, they would forcefully take the collateral.
"I don't have any extra collateral!" Unexpectedly, Boss Jia smiled slightly, and then said, "But I have a friend who is willing to come forward and help me guarantee it!"
"Friend?" Everyone present was stunned for a moment, and then a man from Hua Xia walked in and said with a dull expression, "Let me introduce myself. I am Li Shiyi, the chairman of Baidu Real Estate Group in Hua Xia!"
"Baidu Real Estate Group?" Many people present had never heard of this name. Only the people from the Sumitomo Foundation's eyes lit up, and then said, "You are the chairman of Baidu Real Estate Group, the number one real estate group in Hua Xia, Mr. Li Shiyi!!"
"The number one real estate group in Hua Xia!" Hearing this name, everyone's eyes lit up. Real estate had a bright future. Everyone who had experienced the crazy surge in real estate prices in Tokyo was very clear about it.
In a fast-developing country like Hua Xia, real estate companies in the future would definitely develop at an unimaginable speed. The future of this Baidu Real Estate Group was limitless!
However, how could the current Baidu Real Estate help the Daqian Group guarantee this 40 billion USD guarantee? Was it possible to bet the entire Baidu Group?
