"...By the way, my family has also sold and held a lot of silver spot in Shanghai. Since the price of silver is going to fall, shouldn't we give it away? Since we can't stop David, can we give it to him? We still have enough quantity.
Quite a bit. To be honest, if you want to take advantage of the market here, you have to be affected. It’s better to go to David to save time and effort. Anyway, it’s better to be cheaper than anyone else.”
After hearing this, Lin Mo stared at Lin Zhenping for a while before moving away and asked: "How much silver spot does the Lin family hold here?"
Seeing this, Lin Zhenping actually panicked and said: "We are using the excess funds we have on hand as backup, as well as the silver we purchased before, as well as the funds we have invested in the past in time to operate in the future, or purchase or mortgage the purchase
Got a batch of ready goods.
We didn’t find a Japanese person as a mortgage, but a foreign bank that we had cooperated with before. However, the other party trusted the Lin family very much. They used 80% of the value of the goods as a mortgage and used leverage to hoard a batch of silver spot. The specific amount is... there is..."
Lin Zhenping finally said the specific amount with some hesitation. It was really quite a lot, almost equivalent to half of the Lin family's previous wealth. The leverage added was not wasteful at all, and it almost didn't stop until the value was within 10,000.
"...Sigh..." Lin Mo sighed and replied: "It's not strange to hoard silver. This is what I agreed to. It is used to cover up the profits from the previous banknote incident and to find funds for future investments in the country.
A reasonable source, but adding such a large amount of leverage is a big problem.
This is different from abroad, where a small number of people are selected to speculate in order to gain an opportunity for the future of the Lin family. However, what you are doing here is blatantly risky speculation. To put it bluntly, it is called a big gamble.
Making quick money is addictive. Once you get used to making quick money, it will be difficult to be patient and do business slowly. What if you can make quick money once, twice, or even ten or a hundred times and win?
If they lose once, the Lin family may be doomed.
No matter how much quick money they make, it doesn't mean much to the Lin family. The slowly developed industry, the business that can continue to obtain a steady stream of profits, and the various relationships and interest alliances connected by this, are what matter to the Lin family.
Capital that is truly useful and can sustain life.
This type of industry is basically insulated from quick money, or to be more precise, insulated from the short-term and fast type of quick money such as speculation. The most important thing to do when operating these industries is to be cautious about being impatient. Only by being calm and steady can you step by step.
Only then can we not create a false and empty castle in the air.
Uncle Ping, you, even you, are the backbone of the Lin family, but when I came here today, all you talked to me about were all kinds of finance and investment-related things, and you didn’t say a word about various other business matters at home!
Of course, it doesn’t mean that you can’t understand these things, but you need to have a clear understanding of yourself! When you have only a little understanding, you start to get ready to take action. A layman who has only a little understanding wants to dance with an expert. I really don’t know.
What gave you this confidence.
These behaviors and thoughts of yours are not investments, but speculative and adventurous thoughts. To be precise, they are called gambling, or the kind of big bets where you want to bet most of your chips without even knowing the situation clearly.
Uncle Ping, your heart is agitated. You are probably blinded by the huge benefits brought by these two speculations of the Lin family. It has made your heart strings flutter. You have been fascinated by it for a long time, haven't you?
These days, I’m afraid the other businesses in the family will develop and be forgotten, right? I don’t know now whether it is a good or bad thing to bring this opportunity to the Lin family? "
Lin Zhenping swallowed a few times to relieve his panic, but his mouth was already dry and his forehead was sweating. Lin Mo's words were a blow to the head and made him think about what he had done during this time.
, is the fear that sends shivers down my spine.
He finally understood the reason for the unkind tone in Lin Mo's previous conversation with him. Only now did he understand that the person was already trying hard to suppress his anger and did not explode immediately.
He is an old man who has been immersed in the business world for many years. Naturally, he knows the consequences of entering a new field in such ignorance. He also knows the consequences of being obsessed with the feeling of making quick money. Examples include ruining his family and even annihilating his family.
He didn't see it often, but when it was his turn, he didn't expect it to happen anyway, which shows how powerful this thing is.
"Thank you for waking me up. I have been in a bad state during this period. Just like you said, I was obsessed. If I don't wake up in time, I don't know what stupid things I will commit and what disasters I will cause. Don't worry! We will never be responsible.
Now, you give me a chance to create."
Lin Zhenping's eyes were firm and sharp. He no longer stared blankly as before. Sometimes his eyes were even wandering and wandering. Fortunately, all his energy and energy were back now. In this state alone, he should have woken up.
"It's not enough for you to have this understanding! Fortunately, there are not many people at home who know about it. You have to bring what you need to say. Especially those who are personally involved, you must give instructions and enlighten them. In addition, speculation is prevalent in Shanghai during this time. You
The situation is not right during this period, and people in the business may also be affected to some extent, so we should pay attention to it."
"Don't worry, I will personally pay attention to it. If something is wrong, it would be fine if they can wake up in time. If not, I can only let them rest aside!"
Lin Zhenping nodded in reply. As for resting, it obviously meant abandonment. Once he had tried it himself, he had already understood the pros and cons. If he persisted in persisting, he would probably be buried with others, so he had no mercy.
Lin Mo didn't talk any more. He just wanted to listen and click on the most important points. He nodded and said: "To deal with the spot silver, first redeem it from the bank! Then procrastinately buy out a small amount locally. It's necessary to
Showing that you are very confused.
You can also secretly sell some more in private, just a small amount is enough, and keep the remaining silver on hand for later use! When necessary, you can use it to maintain the normal operation of domestic industries. As for selling it abroad, don’t do it. We still need to sell it domestically.
If you continue to mess around, your reputation will be ruined easily.
However, when the price of silver really drops, the rhetoric to the outside world will be unified as saying that there is no less money, but the posture will have to be hesitant, awkward, and unwilling to say much. We cannot hide the situation of the previous banknote incident from everyone, whether it is true or false.
, Only by showing what is true and what is false can we prevent interested people from knowing our details, and this kind of performance can also avoid us from attracting too much attention to the silver spot issue."
Lin Zhenping immediately nodded in understanding. Wasn't it just to show off too much and avoid attracting too much attention before the Lin family made arrangements in the early stage? He understood!
For those who are not malicious in this move, when they see the Lin family's attitude, they will subconsciously think that the Lin family is afraid that their work has been in vain or even lost money, and they will not be curious to investigate further. Even if they are curious and inquire, they will find out that the Lin family is just entangled after redeeming the silver.
If you sell a small amount, it's basically time to end.
If there is malicious intent, no problem will be found after checking, because the Lin family did not sell much silver, and later it was found that the Lin family spent the wrong amount of money. Isn't there a high probability that the silver price will rise again? Can it be blamed on
This! There are even suspicions, and most likely they are just suspicions that we failed to find out the source of the funds in the early stage, and the purpose of covering the source of the funds in the early stage was achieved.
And what about the facts? They were led to pay attention in the wrong direction from the beginning. If the direction is wrong, how can they get the correct results? Naturally, they can only get entangled in the wrong results. After all, the real results are definitely the majority in this era.
Unexpected.
Not to mention Chinese people, even foreigners will not easily doubt this possibility. After all, towards China, foreigners have an attitude of arrogance, contempt, belittlement, etc., while for Chinese people, they have an impression of backwardness, feudalism, and ignorance. How could it be? How could it be possible?
How dare you? Go and stir up trouble in the market they dominate?
So! Lin Mo is not too worried. Others will easily detect that it is the Lin family who is behind the scenes. Moreover, they have also set up many misleading traps, and the matter may even be exposed in the future. Some people may rather, or even believe it.
It was the Japanese who did it...
Thinking of this, Lin Mo once again gave Lin Zhenping instructions to let them launder money. The methods he explained to make money legal were the means in money laundering, so that they could make it more realistic when laundering money, and also gave instructions in the future.
If the external posture maintained after the incident was exposed can really mislead some people, even if it only causes some controversy in public opinion, it can reduce a lot of trouble for the Lin family.
"Uncle Ping, I saw a fleet of boats on the way here. It was a fleet of tugboats dragging a bunch of barges. There were family members on board. The shape and condition of the boats looked new. Is this a boat built by our family?
?”
"...Yes..." Lin Zhenping's tone was obviously a little uncertain, and he said: "There are indeed several shipyards at home that have built ships. It seems that there have been ships on trial voyages in the past few days, and a batch of goods has been picked up in Qingpu.
"
"Uncle Ping, have you really forgotten all these things at home? You don't just remember to weigh bananas and fruits, do you?"
Lin Mo shook his head helplessly, and Lin Zhenping was even more embarrassed. Unless Lin Mo was really right, how could he be so enlightened? He had nothing to refute Lin Mo's statement.
"I'll let someone else explain these situations to you! Tell me about it too." Fortunately, Lin Zhenping realized the problem and no longer held back, but pointed it out frankly. After Lin Mo nodded, he immediately made the call.
, and after a while, the secretary came in with another batch of information.
Lin Mo also finished what he was doing first. Although he just nodded briefly to the other party, Lin Mo's attention was always on the other party. When he saw Lin Zhenping's current state, his eyebrows clearly relaxed a bit, he nodded secretly in his heart.
To be able to serve as a person who has access to the core secrets of the Lin family, loyalty is not enough. Basically, ability, loyalty and even background are indispensable. Not surprisingly, the future will be at Lin Zhenping's level. The backup candidate is someone who sits at the top of important industries in various parts of the Lin family.
We said hello, chatted a bit and got to know each other briefly. Lin Wenqing was a contemporary of Lin Mo. She was five or six years older than Lin Mo. She was not a member of the main lineage of the Lin family, but a descendant of the clan who defected from her ancestral home.
But that is all the business of my grandfather. His father was born and raised in Hangzhou. Both generations of his grandfather have contributed a lot to the Lin family industry, so they also have shares. After finishing his studies, he also entered The Lin family business firm knows the basics and has outstanding abilities, so it was directly selected for training and training.
After Lin Zhenping was responsible for worrying about speculation in the United States, he was assigned to serve as deputy and secretary. He was able not to be affected by quick money and was not dazzled by quick money. He also paid attention to Lin Zhenping's condition, which shows that he really did not pick the wrong person.
