Chapter 514: 456 Happy cooperation

Wall Street.

Rongtong Securities.

Reception room.

Liu Hongzhi adjusted his glasses, a subconscious little gesture that showed his current state of mind was fairly anxious.

"Mr. Jiang, he might be in a meeting, please don’t worry."

Jiang Chen, who had been waiting for nearly an hour, was quite indifferent, taking a sip of water.

"It’s fine."

Liu Hongzhi pursed his lips, but it wasn’t appropriate for him to rush things.

This wait turned out to be nearly half an hour more.

Just when Liu Hongzhi was about to lose his patience, the door to the reception room finally opened.

A tall Caucasian man walked in.

Designer suit, the high bridge of the nose characteristic of Westerners, around forty, quite handsome, only his brows revealed a faint haughtiness that wasn’t very endearing.

However, as the Chief Auditor of Rongtong Securities, he indeed had the grounds for such pride.

Compared to him, Liu Hongzhi was not even in the same league. Without some fortunate encounter, or the patronage of a powerful person, his career would develop securely and unremarkably, and he probably would not sit in the position that the other was in at his age.

"Mr. Wilson, this is Mr. Jiang Chen."

Liu Hongzhi forced a smile, standing up despite his discontent.

Wilson gave a noncommittal nod, without a trace of guilt for having kept someone waiting.

"I only have five minutes."

Liu Hongzhi’s smile became slightly stiff.

That’s Wall Street for you.

It seems to be the heart of world finance, but in reality, it’s no different from the primeval jungle.

Here, there is no sympathy, no mercy. Every person is a beast clad in the trappings of civilization. The hierarchy is rigid, it’s the survival of the fittest, and the cruelest food chain in the world is played out.

The strong bully the weak, the many outnumber the few, and this drama unfolds here every moment.

Of course.

Occasionally there are miracles where the snake swallows the elephant.

Following an arrogant opening statement, Wilson seated himself, not at all concerned whether the atmosphere was awkward or not.

"Mr. Wilson, since your time is precious, I’ll get straight to the point."

Jiang Chen seemed totally unfazed by the other’s attitude.

So-called freedom and equality are nothing but lies told to fool the world.

In this land dominated by capitalism, only money is the true god.

Respect must be earned through strength.

"I need all of the K.E. Group stock that your company is holding."

Jiang Chen went straight to the point.

Wilson involuntarily glanced at Liu Hongzhi.

Although he didn’t know how Liu Hongzhi convinced him to give these five minutes, it was clear that Liu Hongzhi had not revealed Jiang Chen’s purpose ahead of time.

"Are you from Shenzhou, Goryeo, or Dongying?"

Wilson asked.

Since both parties communicated in English and based on appearance alone, it was indeed difficult for Westerners to identify which Asian country one came from.

"Shenzhou."

"Do you know how much the K.E. stock our company holds is worth?"

"There’s an old saying in Shenzhou, ’Han Xin counts his soldiers – the more, the better.’ That’s also why I’ve come here," Jiang Chen said.

If one word were to be used to describe Jiang Chen at that moment,

It would be "audacious."

If two words,

It would be "arrogantly audacious!"

When doing business domestically, he would definitely not behave like this, after all, Shenzhou esteems the golden mean. But in the West, when doing business with Westerners, one must show sufficient confidence to be taken seriously, as humility is not something the West has ever understood.

Wilson raised an eyebrow, his gray pupils finally revealing a flicker of interest.

"I know of Han Xin, he’s the god of soldiers in Shenzhou, a very remarkable man, and I respect him highly. But how do you expect me to believe that I should lend the shares to you?"

Business is business.

Wilson coolly said, "We hold 3 million shares of K.E. Group, with a market value of roughly half a billion euros. That’s no small fortune."

million shares?

You should know.

At least 20 million shares were needed to manipulate K.E.’s stock price.

But Jiang Chen wasn’t disappointed. One had to walk step by step. It was impossible for K.E.’s shares to be all stacked in one securities firm.

Then, Wilson looked at his wristwatch, "Three minutes left."

"I’ve invested in a movie directed by Thomas Felton, with an investment of 300 million US dollars."

Jiang Chen spoke unhurriedly, "It’s a collaborative film between East and West featuring an Eastern female lead for the first time. Based on market evaluation, with Shenzhou as a safety net, this film will definitely not run at a loss once it’s released."

Movies are also part of finance.

Wilson was also familiar with some of the rules of cinema.

By the principle that a film is considered a loss if its box office doesn’t triple the production cost, that means the movie’s gross –

Would likely reach 900 million US dollars.

Wilson fell silent.

Liu Hongzhi couldn’t help but look at the young man even younger than himself, clearly shocked once again.

Tianci was indeed unfathomable.

"Jiang, I think we can talk in detail, let’s go to my office," Wilson said, his first smile in the conference room playing across his face.

Westerners are just so realistic.

Or perhaps.

Simple.

Over an hour later.

Jiang Chen and Liu Hongzhi walked out of the Rongtong Securities building.

"Those 3 million shares should be no issue."

The business of security companies is just like that, as long as the client has sufficient capital, there’s no reason not to collaborate.

Furthermore.

Such large international brokerage firms have good professional ethics, as long as customers can guarantee to pay the interest, they won’t ask a single question about what the clients do with those shares.

"3 million shares, still a long way from 20 million," Jiang Chen uttered softly.

Wearing gold-rimmed glasses and fitting the street’s ambiance, Liu Hongzhi replied, "As long as you have enough strength, here, you can do anything you want to do."
