"What Guoliang said makes sense. If the president has already decided, Xing will do it..."
In the contest just now, Bai Zhentian won a complete victory. Originally, this was the time to harvest the fruits of victory. Shen Junhao and Peng Shanchen had spoken against it because Qin Feng was too young.
"Brother Qin, what do you mean?"
Bai Zhentian turned to look at Qin Feng. With Cao Guoliang's support, this matter was basically a done deal. Moreover, the first condition he proposed after taking office was unlikely to be opposed by Shen and Peng.
"Brother Bai, I... you also know the situation over there."
Hearing Bai Zhentian's question about him, Qin Feng could no longer remain silent. He smiled bitterly and said: "My roots are still in China. If this news spreads, I'm afraid many of my friends in China will be implicated... "
Although mainland China's policies have been liberalized a lot in recent years, it has always been wary of foreign forces, especially Chinese organizations of the size of Hongmen, which are the focus of relevant domestic departments.
These big guys in Hongmen all left the country a long time ago, and now they have American citizenship. Even if the domestic departments have any ideas, they are beyond their reach.
But Qin Feng is different. If the news of his appointment as the guest minister of Hongmen spreads back to China, then his good days will be over. Among other things, round-the-clock surveillance is absolutely indispensable.
"If it doesn't work, just come out. Isn't the U.S. economy and environment worse than those at home?"
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Peng Shanchen showed a trace of dissatisfaction on his face. Neither he nor Shen Junhao objected anymore. Instead, this kid took up his stance.
"Hallmaster Peng, the economy and technology of the United States must be at least twenty years ahead of the domestic..."
Qin Feng shook his head slowly and said sincerely: "However, I grew up in China and it is still difficult to leave my hometown. I am afraid that I cannot accept it if I am asked to live abroad all of a sudden."
As soon as Qin Feng said these words, the venue suddenly became silent.
In fact, if it were not forced by the situation back then, which of these old people would be willing to leave their hometown and come to the United States? Qin Feng's words aroused their homesickness.
"I don't know what's going on in my hometown?"
Shen Junhao let out a long sigh. He had a chance to go back to the mainland last year, but because his return would involve many things, Shen Junhao was unable to make the trip in the end.
"Life in China is getting better and better now." Qin Feng said with a smile: "You might as well go back and take a look when you have time. It should not be difficult for you there."
"It's not that I'm afraid of embarrassing them, but that I'm afraid that they'll make some demands.
Bai Zhentian said: "Just as your roots are in China, Hongmen's roots are in the United States. We live here and have to worry about the American authorities. Hongmen has never been involved in political issues in the past 40 or 50 years." …”
Although Hongmen is now supporting some Chinese politicians, their actions are within the bottom line of the U.S. government. If Hongmen reaches certain agreements with China, what awaits them will be a severe blow from the U.S. government.
Therefore, although the country has repeatedly extended an olive branch to Hongmen, Hongmen has not dared to accept the offer, and has declined it many times, both covertly and covertly.
Of course, Hongmen will not refuse to deal with some easier-to-handle matters proposed by the country. For example, to protect Meng Yao this time, Hongmen sent out the most elite force in the sect.
"Brother Qin, you are just afraid that your identity will be exposed. But you can use the name of Wu Zhe to be the guest of Hongmen!"
Bai Zhentian came up with a compromise. After several events this time, he valued Qin Feng very seriously, so he wanted to bring Qin Feng into Hongmen at all costs.
"President, since little brother doesn't want to, let's just forget about it, right?" Peng Shanchen, who was next to him, had some dissatisfaction on his face.
What kind of organization is Hongmen? Inviting Qin Feng as a guest minister is definitely a great thing to outsiders, but this guy still resists.
"Brother Qin, you're not so disrespectful to me, are you?"
Bai Zhentian looked at Qin Feng with a wry smile, but he was playing the friendship card. He was now the boss of the Hongmen, so these words still carry a lot of weight.
"Brother Bai, I don't dare to be..."
Seeing Bai Zhentian's attitude, Qin Feng knew that if he didn't agree, he might really offend these big guys, so he immediately said: "Well, Qin can be a guest of Hongmen...
But let’s forget about the position of the incense master in the auditorium. Qin is too young. If this matter spreads, I’m afraid people will laugh at the fact that there is no one in our Hongmen..."
Qin Feng thought it through. If he was just a guest of Hongmen and his knowledge was limited to a few people present, I believe it would not have much impact on him.
After all, Keqing is not yet a member of the Hongmen. Even if the relevant domestic departments find out about this matter in the future, they probably won't make any fuss about it.
"Little brother, the position of the auditorium leader has an income of at least 20 to 30 million US dollars a year."
Peng Shanchen suddenly said: "I heard that you also have industries in China, but can it compare with this position? It's still too late for you to regret now..."
Peng Shanchen has a very upright temperament. If he likes someone, he can be kind to him or her from the bottom of his heart, but if he feels disgusted in his heart, he will be merciless in hurting others.
Peng Shanchen didn't like or dislike Qin Feng before, but after seeing Bai Zhentian repeatedly inviting Qin Feng to join Hongmen without success, he felt that this young man was a little arrogant.
So Peng Shanchen deliberately pointed out the direct benefits that the auditorium boss could bring. He just wanted to see the expression of regret on Qin Feng's face.
"Oh? Our industries in the mainland are indeed incomparable." Qin Feng smiled lightly and said nothing more.
However, this result disappointed Peng Shanchen, because after hearing the number from his mouth, the smile on Qin Feng's face showed no trace of reluctance, as if Peng Shanchen was talking about two or three hundred dollars.
"Little brother, do you really not regret it?"
Peng Shanchen was afraid that Qin Feng didn't know the exchange rate between US dollars and RMB, so he said: "That's tens of millions of US dollars, and it would be hundreds of millions if converted into RMB..."
"Cough... cough cough..."
After hearing Peng Shanchen's words, Bai Zhentian couldn't help but cough a few times. Others didn't know Qin Feng's net worth, but he knew it clearly. Peng Shanchen wanted to find superiority in Qin Feng, but he really found the wrong person.
"Brother Peng, brother Qin's net worth... is a little richer than mine."
Seeing that Peng Shanchen was about to speak, Bai Zhentian quickly interrupted him and said: "Brother Qin won some money in the casino a few days ago, almost one billion US dollars. Brother Qin may not be able to put this little income of our Hongmen into it."
In my eyes..."
"What?"
"A billion dollars?"
"Zhentian, are you right?"
As soon as Bai Zhentian said these words, everyone who was originally calm suddenly widened their eyes. Even Mr. Bai, who was sitting at the top, couldn't help but stare at Qin Feng and take a closer look.
"That's right, it's one billion US dollars..."
Hearing everyone's doubts, Bai Zhentian nodded affirmatively and said: "This matter can be easily found out. Brother Shen, don't you know Modisai from Africa? You will know as soon as you ask..."
"If you can win a billion in the casino, then only Modise and his friends can gamble as big as that."
Hearing Bai Zhentian mention Modisai's name, Shen Junhao was already convinced. He was doing external relations work. He was once responsible for Hongmen's investment in Africa, and his relationship with Modisai was pretty good.
"It's just that I was rash. Is this little brother really a capable person?"
Peng Shanchen originally wanted to disgust Qin Feng, but he didn't expect that this young man's background was far deeper than he thought. Although Peng Shanchen didn't like Qin Feng, he still apologized to Qin Feng.
"Brother Peng is serious. I just have better luck."
Qin Feng acted the same as before, without showing any trace of complacency. His calmness was in great contrast to his age. When talking to Qin Feng, there was no barrier between these older people.
"While everyone is here, I want to say something..."
Seeing that Peng Shanchen no longer made things difficult for Qin Feng, Bai Zhentian was relieved and said: "According to the previous agreement with Brother Qin, Brother Qin will invest one billion U.S. dollars in the future casino of Ao Island. How many shares do you think he should get?
?”
Investing in the Macao Island Casino is a signal for Hongmen to enter Asia in the next few years.
Although the total investment amount is only a few billion US dollars, many industries under Hongmen can come up with this amount of money alone.
But everyone knows that a casino is like a cornucopia. Even one percent of the shares now will be a huge astronomical figure in the future.
So after Bai Zhentian said this, several big guys in the venue began to think in their hearts that the increase in Qin Feng's shares meant that Hongmen's shares would be diluted.
"Zhentian, what we originally converted was 40 million shares, right?"
The person who knows the most about economics in the room is none other than Cao Guoliang. After thinking for a while, Cao Guoliang said: "Let's see, Hongmen will invest another billion on the basis of the initial one billion US dollars...
···
In this way, the start-up capital of the new company will reach 3 billion. According to this ratio, Brother Qin, you can get 30% of the shares, what do you think?"
It was very kind of Cao Guoliang to do this, because they wanted to give Qin Feng 2% of the shares before, and these 2% of the shares would not affect the future structure of the company.
But now that Qin Feng has used his real money to buy shares, Hongmen will significantly reduce their shares in the company in order to coordinate the relationship between all parties.
"I have no objection!" Qin Feng nodded. According to what his master said, the money he won was meant to be spent, otherwise it would be a disaster rather than a blessing.
But apart from taking a stake in the future Aodao Gambling and Entertainment Company, Qin Feng really couldn't imagine how he could spend such a large amount of money.
And with 30% of the shares, in a sense, Qin Feng can be regarded as the largest individual shareholder of the company in the future, and will occupy a very important seat on the board of directors.
