After listening to this, Liu Qingyu smiled lightly: "Secretary Zeng, to be honest, I am only 50% sure about this layout. However, since you and the provincial party committee sent me to Dongjiang City to carry out this arduous plan, Task, since I am a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee of Dongjiang City, whether it is for our country or for the people of Dongjiang City, I must do my best to complete the tasks assigned to me by the Provincial Party Committee and save the country as much as possible. Loss or loss is inevitable. I have been mentally prepared. As for whether it will cause you trouble, to be honest, I cannot predict it. Please forgive me. Of course, you can also choose to stop my trip this time. Action, I will arduously follow your instructions."
Zeng Hongtao was silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "Just do what you want, even if there is a fifty percent chance that the huge national wealth can be restored, in order to eliminate the huge interest groups that exist in Dongjiang City, It doesn’t matter if I personally take some political risks. Even the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee of a small county-level city has this awareness. How can I, the secretary of the provincial Party committee, lag behind? The interests of the country and the people are above all else, even though Just go ahead and do it, I will support you in everything."
Liu Qingyu nodded: "Secretary Zeng, thank you. It is a blessing for us, the people of Baiyun Province, to have you in charge of Baiyun Province."
At the end, Liu Qingyu gave him a little flattery, neither too lightly nor too seriously.
Although Liu Qingyu would never flatter others, the performance of Zeng Hongtao, the great leader today, made Liu Qingyu admire him from the bottom of his heart. Whether it was flattering or showing sincerity, Liu Qingyu really admired Zeng Hongtao. I admire him very much, because Liu Qingyu knows very well what a huge responsibility it will be if his layout fails this time, and Zeng Hongtao is likely to bear serious political responsibility, which will lead to the end of his official career.
At this moment, Dongjiang City and Liaoyuan City are turbulent, but Liu Qingyu just sits firmly in the Dongjiang City Discipline Inspection Commission and is busy with his work calmly. On the surface, he has no intention of participating in this energy feast.
Unlike Liu Qingyu's attitude, Sun Yulong was ambitious and extremely busy for this feast.
Due to the arrival of his old classmate Wu Liangkuan, Sun Yulong is full of confidence in this flammable ice project, because the professionalism of his old classmate is unquestionable, and the figures in his bank account that have doubled in three years will not be fake. , Through conversations with old classmates, Sun Yulong was reminded by Li Wanjun that the suspicion that Xinyuan Group and the Provincial Energy Bureau's exploration behavior in Dongjiang City was a conspiracy was basically eliminated. After all, if it was not true, Wall Street's financial It is impossible for giants to send out their old classmates to look for opportunities.
That night, Sun Yulong immediately took Wu Liangkuan to meet Li Wanjun secretly.
In this secret meeting, Wu Liangkuan expressed his opinion from the perspective of a professional investor: "Secretary Li, there are three main reasons why I came to Dongjiang City with 5 billion US dollars of funds this time. First, As an environmentally friendly new energy source, the flammable ice project has been rapidly promoted around the world, and even now, this project is still in a vigorous development stage and is still at least 15 to 20 years away from its peak. time, so investing in combustible ice projects at this stage has huge prospects, and it is not an exaggeration to say that one can make huge profits;
Second, the profit rate of the combustible ice project is quite high. Basically, if the investment is appropriate and the exploration is accurate, there is absolutely no problem in achieving a return rate of more than 10 times. This is why so many energy giants have been eyeing the development of combustible ice projects.
Third, and the reason why I traveled thousands of miles to come here, is that I have learned through some intelligence networks within the financial system that Xinyuan Group is currently in financial difficulties and is raising funds everywhere. Start this project in Dongjiang City.”
When Li Wanjun heard the third reason, he was stunned for a moment, with an incredible look on his face: "Mr. Wu, are you kidding me? Xinyuan Group is an energy giant. Will they be in a situation of shortage of funds?"
Li Wanjun is still full of doubts about this third reason.
Wu Liangkuan's face turned cold and he said coldly: "Secretary Li, if it weren't for Yulong's sake, I would never tell you this matter, and your doubts about me also make me very unhappy, but for Yulong's sake, I'll tolerate you once and make an exception to explain it to you. If something similar happens again in the future, don't blame me for leaving you and going alone."
Hearing what Wu Liangkuan said, Li Wanjun's face became more solemn: "I would like to hear the details."
When Wu Liangkuan spoke, his tone was very stern and full of aura. Even though Li Wanjun was the absolute boss of Liaoyuan City, he had no stage fright. Seeing Wu Liangkuan's expression, Li Wanjun was slightly less suspicious, but he still insisted on listening. his explanation.
Wu Liangkuan said in a deep voice: "Secretary Li, I believe you should know that the United States monitors the entire world. Monitoring is carried out all the time. This news was revealed by Snowden some time ago. Almost every large enterprise in the world is monitoring Under the supervision of the United States, how could a huge energy company like Xinyuan Group not be under the supervision of the United States?
Secretary Li, do you know why your China is controlled by the United States and Europe in the international trade market? The reason is very simple, because to them, your China has no secrets. Most of the many response policies you have formulated are Everything is under their control.
Why are the markets in many fields in China almost monopolized by companies from Europe, the United States, Japan and other countries? Is it because of surveillance? Because almost all of the confidential decision-making information of your companies in China is under surveillance and monitoring, and this information will be disclosed immediately. Transferred to these interested enterprises through a series of relevant procedures.
This time, Xinyuan Group’s capital chain shortage was also known to some core giants on Wall Street for this reason, and the company I worked for happened to be one of them. The reason why they were short of capital was because they were currently focusing on They are operating on shale gas projects, and the project they operate is very costly and has a long project cycle, so they have been operating in secret."
After hearing this, Li Wanjun couldn't help but frown: "Is Xinyuan Group short of liquidity? They are such a big company."
Wu Liangkuan smiled faintly: "Under normal circumstances, there will be no problem even if Xinyuan Group launches the capital chain of the shale gas project. After all, for a company as big as Xinyuan Group, the liquidity chain must always be very sufficient. Even if Now, it is not a problem for them to spend tens of billions casually, but if they want to operate this project in Dongjiang City, I am afraid it will be insufficient.
Because according to the commercial confidential information we have stolen, the Xinyuan Group attaches great importance to this project in Dongjiang City. The initial fundraising amount of the project is expected to reach 200 billion, but the Xinyuan Group can only raise 500 billion. About 150 billion, and the remaining 150 billion will be obtained through various financing channels. According to Xinyuan Group's operating habits, they always like to take the initiative in doing things. After all, they are at the leading level in combustible ice mining technology. Therefore, they will definitely use this as a bargaining chip to dominate the entire project during negotiations."
After hearing Wu Liangkuan's explanation, Li Wanjun fell into deep thought. If he had doubts about Wu Liangkuan's explanation before, now he basically believed 80% of Wu Liangkuan's explanation, but he still didn't dare to completely believe Wu Liangkuan. After all, this opportunity was very rare for him, and he didn't want to make a wrong move this time.
At this time, Wu Liangkuan spoke again: "Secretary Li, the reason why I agreed to follow Sun Yulong to see you this time is because I have received accurate information. This time, the Provincial Energy Bureau and Xinyuan Group are actively contacting some domestic banks. The giants hope to raise funds from them, because the cost of this kind of financing is the smallest. The last thing they want is for all parties to invest in the form of shares, and my task this time is to buy me shares in the form of shares. I brought the US$5 billion together with the funds from some of my friends to invest in the company. Without your help, I’m afraid it would be difficult for me to achieve my wish.”
After Wu Liangkuan finished speaking, he stood up and said, "Secretary Li, I'm going out for a while, you guys can chat first."
After saying that, Wu Liangkuan got up and walked out.
At this time, Sun Yulong told Li Wanjun his actual experience. Although he did not tell Li Wanjun how much money he had invested in Wu Liangkuan, he did tell Li Wanjun the information that his funds had more than doubled in more than three years.
After Li Wanjun heard this, he was immediately shocked. He did not expect that Sun Yulong actually knew how to manage money, and his assets increased in value so quickly. He knew very well that Sun Yulong's assets were probably accumulated over more than ten years, but they were all spent in more than ten years. The things he had accumulated with so much hard work had doubled in just three years, which couldn't help but make him excited.
At this moment, his doubts about Wu Liangkuan were reduced by 15% again, leaving only a trace of hesitation in his heart.
At this time, Sun Yulong said in a deep voice: "Secretary Li, do you know why Wu Liangkuan's name is Wu Liangkuan now? He was not called this name before."
Li Wanjun was stunned: "Why."
Sun Yulong smiled bitterly and said: "According to him, he was one of the participants in the implementation of the second quantitative easing policy in the United States and participated in formulating some of its rules. Of course, these were just what he said after being drunk. The authenticity of some of the drunken conversations is not yet known, but what is certain is that he is deeply appreciated by his boss in his company, and the big boss of his company has access to a lot of top-level information that ordinary people cannot access."
After listening to Sun Yulong's words, Li Wanjun's suspicion basically disappeared.
At this time, Wu Liangkuan came back, and Li Wanjun asked: "Mr. Wu, what do you think we should do in order to obtain the maximum benefit from this flammable ice project?"
