Among these four major families, there are many very high-level officials serving in Beijing. The core officials among them were detained by Shuanggui at almost the same time and were investigated by the organization.
Over the years, these officials have committed more than one or two crimes for the family's personal gain. Once investigated, none of them is clean. So, some of them committed suicide and others confessed.
Soon, a major case that shocked the whole country came to light. Contrary to the expectations of the public, the entire trial process was quite open and transparent. Who was involved in the case, what crimes were committed, and how the trial would be conducted were all promptly published in the newspapers
Publish it.
This move made many people realize the strength of the country's determination to punish criminals.
Zhang Jun doesn't care much about this important matter. His current role is Zhang Shennong, the boss of Shennong Bank, and his main task is to develop Shennong Bank.
China Investment acquired 35% of the shares of Shennong Bank for US$20 billion, so this bank also has a state-owned asset background. However, this transaction was very secretive and was not known to the outside world.
With this background, Shennong Bank's business can of course be successfully expanded to the country. Just a few days ago, Shennong Bank opened branches in three major cities: Hong Kong, Donghai, China Overseas, and Kyoto.
In addition, Southeast Bank, established with capital injection from Shennong Bank, is also one of the focus of operations. Shennong Bank holds 35% of the shares of Southeast Bank. Once this bank develops, it will make considerable profits.
In addition to the above two major markets, Shennong Bank will also develop into the United States, North Africa, Japan, South Korea and other places to build it into one of the top banks in the world.
Of course, the top priority of banking business is still venture capital, which is also the beginning of "Plan No. 1". After talking with Mr. Ge, he knew that he had been permanently tied to the high-speed ship of the country.
On the big ship, everyone will be prosperous, and everyone will suffer.
While Zhang Jun was ambitiously preparing his expansion plan, a piece of bad news came. Ge Xiaoxian called and said that Shennong Bank was under investigation again and all business must be temporarily suspended.
Zhang Jun was annoyed. This kind of thing had happened once before. Could someone want to get rid of Shennong Bank?
That afternoon, he met Ge Xiaoxian in a hotel. Ge Xiaoxian said with a sad look on his face: "We are in trouble this time. The one investigating us is the European Commission of Banking Supervisors."
On the contrary, Zhang Jun was very calm and asked: "Is there really a problem with our bank?"
Ge Xiaoxian rolled her eyes at him: "Of course there are problems. For example, the source of our funds is not visible to the public. However, many banks have problems of this kind. The reason why we are under investigation for the first time is because Shennong Bank violated certain wealthy people in Switzerland.
Interests."
"How do you say that?" Zhang Jun asked.
Ge Xiaoxian: "I have already had a phone call with my third uncle and my fourth uncle. They said that my uncle once wanted to stop this incident, but unfortunately he had limited power and was unable to stop it in the end. The root cause of the incident may be UBS, which is a private bank and also
The largest bank in Europe, with assets under management exceeding US$2 trillion and branches in fifty countries around the world, it has strong strength."
Zhang Jun frowned: "Why should such a giant company have trouble with a newly established bank?"
"The reason is very simple. United Bank has seen the huge development potential of Shennong Bank. Especially recently, China Investment Group has deposited a large amount of assets into Shennong Bank, which has caused our savings to soar and the number of loans to be issued has also increased sharply, which has made United Bank feel
Pressure. Moreover, our interest rate is much higher than that of Yiji Bank, so we have obvious advantages."
"The major shareholders behind United Bank are all prominent European families. They are extremely wealthy. They always plan for a rainy day. Of course they will not just watch Shennong Bank become stronger and steal their jobs."
Zhang Jun sighed: "This matter is difficult to handle. I thought Switzerland was a free and fair place, but it seems like it is the same everywhere!"
Ge Xiaoxian: "Right now, we can only take one step at a time and hope that this matter will pass as soon as possible."
Zhang Jun sneered: "Since they have taken action, they will not stop easily. We have to discuss a countermeasure."
Ge Xiaoxian grimaced: "You are not familiar with Switzerland. My third uncle and fourth uncle can't compete with those wealthy families. Our chances of winning are not good."
Zhang Jun sneered: "They want to force me to death, so I will kill them first! Xiaoxian, don't forget, I have a friend called Hand of God, he is an ancestor who plays finance."
Ge Xiaoxian was surprised: "What do you want to do?"
Zhang Jun said coldly: "There is no mercy in the financial field. There is no use in retreating and begging. The only way is to fight back and use strong capital and superb financial means to defeat your opponents. This is the kingly way!"
Ge Xiaoxian also clenched his fists: "Okay! There is a big country behind us, there is no need to be afraid at all, just take action hard!"
That night, Zhang Jun met with the three directors of the investment group. The other party promised that if Zhang Jun needed it, the group would be willing to lend $300 billion to Shennong Bank. You must know that Shennong Bank is also the group's interest. Now that Zhang Jun needs to fight back, of course they will not.
I will sit back and do nothing.
After that, Zhang Jun contacted Depp by phone. Depp had been very busy recently. He had just done a big job some time ago and made five billion US dollars. He was very happy to receive Zhang Jun's call. Zhang Jun explained the matter in detail.
.
After hearing Zhang Jun's plan, financial giants such as Depp were also shocked and said: "Zhang, you are ruthless! The financial order of Switzerland is very healthy and stable, and there are not many opportunities to take action."
Zhang Jun asked: "What is the GDP of Swiss Bank?"
Old Depp said: "Probably around 600 billion US dollars."
"If you want to leverage this country's economy, how much capital will you need?" he asked again.
Old Depp thought for a moment and said: "One hundred billion US dollars is enough, but considering the economic characteristics of Switzerland, I think at least 200 billion US dollars are needed, and tens of billions of dollars of backup funds must be prepared."
"That's easy." Zhang Jun said, "I'll give you 400 billion U.S. dollars, and you can help me bring down UBS!"
Old Depp was stunned and said: "Zhang! Do you think I am really God?"
Zhang Jun said: "Why, no chance?"
"It's not that there's no chance, it's that you didn't give me enough time. To accomplish this, give me at least three years to prepare and one year to execute." Old Depp said, "But you only gave me one month, God
It’s impossible to succeed.”
Zhang Jun said thoughtfully: "But if we don't fight back, they will continue to cause trouble."
Old Depp smiled and said: "Zhang, you are still a layman in the financial field! In fact, there are other solutions to this matter, but you didn't think of it."
Zhang Jun's eyes lit up: "What can I do?"
"At least half of the European banking supervisory system are my friends. Of course, there are also people from the United Bank among them. But within any institution, there are two forces, positive and negative, and we can unite with their enemies. So,
Let me take care of this matter. It only costs 10 billion US dollars."
Zhang Jun frowned: "Ten billion dollars, are you going to feed those guys in vain?"
"Of course not." Old Depp said, "If Shennong Bank wants to develop in the future, it cannot do without the support of this group of people. If you spend 10 billion US dollars, they will be your loyal allies in the future. Zhang, this is buying money."
Zhang Jun thought for a moment and said: "Okay, on the one hand, you will bribe the supervisory committee members, and on the other hand, you will prepare to attack United Bank. I think this should be profitable, right?"
Old Depp agreed very happily this time: "Okay, as long as there is enough time, I can turn Europe upside down, let alone Switzerland. Okay, Zhang, I will start preparations now, but your funds must be in place."
Zhang Jundao: "I originally saved 100 billion US dollars for other things, but now I will give it all to you. Do you think it is enough?"
"Absolutely enough!" Old Depp was very excited. "Due to the large number of participants in the Nanyang vote last time, the money I made was limited. This time I can make a lot of money! Within a year, I can probably
Prepare 100 billion U.S. dollars, and let’s work together to do something big!”
Zhang Jun's heart moved, and he thought of Xiaoqiang. Whenever there was a financial matter, he would ask Old Depp for help. Is it possible to train Xiaoqiang? Thinking of this, he said: "Old Depp, do you want to
Bring an apprentice?"
"Apprentice?" Old Depp smiled, "The people I have taken care of in my life, some are in their 80s if not a hundred. Unfortunately, none of them have become successful. Only the five fingers around me can barely do it."
Zhang Jun said: "Old Depp, I guarantee that he is the smartest guy in the world and has a strong learning ability. You will not regret it."
"Oh? I would like to meet him." Old Depp became interested and said.
"The way I see it, you find a computer with a super system installed and teach it something over the Internet. If it doesn't feel right, just give up." Zhang Jun said, Xiaoqiang is a smart computer, so of course he can't follow him.
With old Depp, you can only learn in this way.
Old Depp said readily: "Okay."
One day later, Old Depp changed his operating computer to Super System, and then sent the IP address to Zhang Jun, which was his request. As soon as the address was sent, a line of English was typed in the upper left corner of Old Depp's screen: You
OK, Mr. Depp.
Old Depp was stunned, and the word "hacker" flashed in his mind. Then, a pleasant man's voice sounded on his headphones: "Mr. Depp, thank you for teaching me financial knowledge."
Old Depp came to his senses and asked: "Are you the person introduced by Zhang?"
"Yes, my name is Zhang Xiaoqiang, you can call me Xiaoqiang. I am a computer expert and I have taken the liberty to invade your computer. Please don't mind." Xiaoqiang was very polite.
"It doesn't matter, you are Zhang's man, of course I trust you." Old Depp was very generous, "If you want to be my apprentice, you must listen to me and do whatever I ask you to do. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"Okay, I have a book list here. There are twenty-three financial masterpieces on it. You should read them first." After saying that, he quickly pulled up a book list on the screen.
"Mr. Depp, I have read all these books." Xiaoqiang asked, "Are there any other books?"
Old Depp was petrified on the spot. He had read them all? How did he know that Xiaoqiang took the opportunity to search for relevant books on the Internet while he was making the book list, and quickly read the book in less than a second.
