In October 1997, there was a rainy curtain floating in the sky. In the strong wind, water beads as big as beans hit the glass, and the bells clattered.

Nanyang Hotel, in a luxurious suite.

Lin Yi lay on the sofa and read the newspaper, then looked at the misty rain outside and was sagging for a while. He waited until the woman on the other end of the sofa hung up the phone and asked:

"How much is the profit?"

Putting his phone on the coffee table, Su Wen sat down next to him slowly, smiled and said, "This time he earned more than 60 million US dollars."

Hearing that there were so many more inputs, Lin Yi suddenly felt spirited: "Then the combined income of several Southeast Asian countries this time exceeds 1 billion yuan."

The gain was a bit beyond his expectations. Only after experiencing it personally can you realize the magnificence, insidiousness and treacherousness of it.

Then Su Wen told him about the acquisition of Yichu Lianhua Co., Ltd. of Zhengda Group.

When talking about Charoen Pokphand Group, Lin Yi looked a little serious, "You have communicated with the British several times. How is the specific progress?"

Su Wen told him, "After four round-trip tests, the other party intentionally sold it, but the price was a bit too high."

Speaking of this, the woman closed her hair with her left hand and then expressed her guess: "I suspect that this British man has roughly understood us and knows that we have a rigid demand for Yichu Lotus, so he has the price card so high."

"Or insist on $30 million?"

"After several confrontations, I have already cut $25 million. I want to pull it a few more times to try to keep the price down."

Lin Yi nodded. Although Yi Chu Lianhua is the direct descendant of Zhengda Group, it also has large-scale store layouts in several countries such as Thailand, Malaysia, and Xinjiabo in Southeast Asia.

But after all, $25 million is very valuable these days, and Lin Yi is not quite a sucker. He has to spend so much money on his 15% stake.

You should know that with the economic trend you have in your own control, you may not be less money than this golden egg.

The reason why he insists on acquiring this part of the equity is because it is related to the layout of the retail industry and the depth of future competition.

After all, in the foreseeable new century, the explosive competition in the retail industry is already on paper. If you can borrow the shares of Yichu Lianhua and work hard to get in touch with a giant like Zhengda, it will only benefit your connections, money, and social status and not harm it.

After all, too many enemies may not be a good thing. As the saying goes, multiple friends will go multiple ways. As for the dirty things that were born in Changshi before, in the face of interests and in the adult world, that is really nothing.

After thinking about it, Lin Yi gave an opinion: "Try to keep the price at the 22 million US dollar line. If you have too much, you can't get it. We don't need to hang ourselves on this tree. After all, our money is very tight now."

Su Wen said "Okay", and then said something: "This time I happened to meet a group of people in Xiangjiang."

This woman always speaks with a targeted look. As soon as she opens her mouth, Lin Yi is curious: "Who?"

"Lawyer Ge is familiar with the other party. He is from the French Danone Group. The leader is a celebrity in the Xiangjiang business district named Qin Peng."

As he said that, the woman told the whole story: Due to the outbreak of the Southeast Asian economic crisis, the gunpowder that had been silent for many years was finally detonated, and Xiangjiang Baifuqin Financing Company was facing bankruptcy.

As a partner and shareholder of Wahaha Group, in order to completely "grab" the controlling stake in Wahaha joint venture, French Danone Group intends to acquire shares of Jinjia Company owned by Baifuqin.

When it comes to Baifuqin Financing Company, Lin Yi was a little surprised, but he didn't expect it to be this big shot.

Liang Botao and his partner Du Huilian are two of the famous "Citi Three Musketeers" in Xiangjiang. They founded Baifuqin Financing Company in 1988.

After ten years of hard work, the two quickly developed the company from US$40 million to the most powerful and influential investment bank in Asia except Japan.

As of the time of the financial crisis, Lin Yi had also seen his report in newspapers, saying that he had total assets of HK$24 billion and a market value of 12.6 billion, ranking among the Fortune magazine's top 500 globally.

Lin Yi knew that because Baifuqin invested heavily in Southeast Asian bond market, this economic crisis brought a fatal impact to Baifuqin.

If you remember correctly, in the ongoing Hong Kong dollar protection war, Baifuqin will be forced to liquidate, which will also cause the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index to fall below the 8,000-point mark, which is a climax mark in the Hong Kong defense war.

It left a deep impression on people in the financial circle later.

The sudden bankruptcy of Baifuqin Financing Company will transfer all 30% of its shares in Jinjia Company to Danone, making Jinjia Company a wholly-owned subsidiary of Danone. From then on, Danone completely became the controlling shareholder of the Wahaha joint venture.

After savoring it carefully, Lin Yi understood the woman’s thoughts: “Do you want to intercept the bell?”

Su Wen said, "Since wahhaha is a big supplier of our Bubugao Supermarket, I have been paying attention to its dynamics over the years. It is now a bit stale with Danone Group."

Lin Yi blinked and continued, "So you want to get this stock into your hands without knowing it. At that time, you can not only sell the boss of the sect, but also take the boss of the sect to make a big profit with one sword, right?"

Su Wen smiled quietly and said that this is what he thought.

But Lin Yi questioned: "Do you have other channels?"

The woman's beautiful eyes looked at him for a while, and her left hand slowly rubbed her earrings, smiling and not talking.

"Well, I actually had a puzzle with your man. It's really..." Lin Yi complained and agreed to her request, but when he thought of agreeing to Wu Jingxiu's 100 million US dollars, he specifically instructed:

"Although this money can be used to intercept it, it must not be left outside for too long. I want to use it for a big use."

"good."

Then Su Wen asked again: "The international hot money led by Soros is currently making trouble for Xiangjiang. We really won't enter?"

During this period, the woman was very happy after being hot money such as Quantum Fund. The considerable gains obviously made her more interested.

In the face of major interests and unprecedented games, she was happy when she was studying finance and was obviously moved by the hunt. That's why she asked this question.

For Xiangjiang, although Lin Yi knew that he had the support of his motherland, as long as he believed in the Hong Kong government, he would definitely make a lot of money.

But Lin Yi didn't have any intention of getting involved. He didn't care whether it was good or trouble. It's great to be a clean and innocent person.

Putting her left foot on the base of her thigh, Lin Yi said: "Let's do as we plan, bypass Hong Kong, and go to Korea and Japan earlier."

Su Wen's face flushed and grabbed the weird feet. After thinking about it, he sighed or agreed, so he asked, "What about Russia?

Judging from the direction of the quantum fund and public opinion, the next target of Xiangjiang will be Russia."

When talking about Russia, Lin Yi recalled it before he said cautiously:

"This polar bear in Russia is not easy to mess with. If it follows the law of freedom of the financial market, its economic and financial status, it will definitely not be a match for Soros and his group of people.

But I'm afraid that their government will come to be rude.

So after we enter the market, we need to be cautious, take one step and look at three steps, and make a profit in this country and you must not be too aggressive."

Su Wen pondered for a while and secretly analyzed the characteristics of this country. For the sake of stability, he decided not to pursue maximization of interests and to obey Lin Yi's plan.

Dial the timeline before it.

According to the customs of my hometown, 20 years old is a major event in life. It represents many things.

From the perspective of age limit, 20 years old means the most beautiful period of youth in life.

At the age of 20, when a person grows up, he has more responsibilities and he has become more mature.

From 1 to 2, this is not just a jump of numbers. Although 18 years old is an adult, most people always feel that they are still active in 1, and they are often childish, rebellious, straightforward, willful, and impulsive.

And at the level of 2, most people will turn from ignorance to sensibility, from escaping to understanding, and learn to endure, pain, humiliation, adversity and sadness.

In the evening, on the third floor of the bookstore, I was guarding a table of delicious dishes. My long legs pursed my lips and inadvertently looked up at the alarm clock on the wall. Under my quiet face, I felt a little disappointed.

Seeing this, Leng Xiu also spoke out to condemn him, "What the hell is Lin Yi doing? You won't forget your birthday, right? You can forget your woman's birthday, tsk, you can forget it even if you have a woman."

Speaking of this, Leng Xiu pushed her long legs and arms, laughed and said funny:

"If he forgets your 20th birthday, let's exchange it for the first time tonight. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk t

The long legs were covered with thin mouth, and the eyes were gouged, and Leng Xiu's head was pushed away with disgust.

However, Jin Yeon, who was fascinated by reading the magazines, smiled heartily when she heard this, "Xiuxiu, why can't you tell the difference between you? Even if Lin Yi didn't show up for ten years, Yanxia's virginity will still be left to him."

Hehehe, on the sofa, the two of them said one by one, and soon distracted their long legs from their attention, and the three of them immediately became a fun together.

I don’t know how long it took, but when the three of them were wearing disheveled clothes, Lin Yi came to the third floor in a dusty manner.

When you enter the door, your eyes are opposite, quiet. There is a little confusion and a little weird in the dead silence.

Fortunately, Lin Yi reacted quickly, and after saying oh, he quickly turned around and closed the door and went out again.

I was still muttering in my heart, "Don't look at the wrong things," and I wanted to take a few more glances in the messy scenes inside.

After waiting for a while, Zou Yanxia's face turned red. After carefully distinguishing Lin Yi's eyes, she said sarcastically: "Did you look good just now? Your eyes are straight."

With this stingy look, Lin Yi smiled and pulled out a watch from her forehead, took out a watch from her pocket, opened the packaging, grabbed her left wrist and put it on.

Also said, "Happy birthday."

This watch looks familiar with long legs. I remember chatting on the sofa and browsing magazines. I took a few more glances at its pictures. I didn't expect him to buy it back.

I was very happy and moved, but I was also a little blamed, and bent my mouth and whispered: "It's very expensive."

After helping her take a look, Lin Yi replied to the question: "It doesn't matter whether it is expensive or not, is it good-looking?"

The woman turned her left wrist a few times, and finally said softly: "Yeah, it looks good."

…

After tidying up, the meal was just over, and the cake was divided. A few people laughed and chased and smeared for a while. It was getting late.

Clean the cake on your clothes, hands, face, and hair. Sit around the sofa and get knocked after chatting.

Seeing his long legs quietly staying beside Lin Yi, his eyes were full and he didn't say much. Jin Yeon had the gaze of vision and stood up first to leave, but Leng Xiu was swaying her mouth as she left:

"A beautiful man, enjoy Yanxia's virginity tonight. You must savor it carefully. Tsk tsk, that's a virginity. Remember to share your experience..."

I held a long voice, Leng Xiu shook her hands and walked happily as she stepped on the tiny steps of the mysterious path.

…

Late at night, God opened the spring rain show, and the heavy rain broke the silence of Yangcheng.
