In order to keep a low profile, Gu Kun always turned off his phone and put it in his bag during class.
After hearing that Tang Jia said someone was looking for him, he immediately found a deserted corner of the teaching building, took out his phone, turned it on, and called He Lan back.
As expected, He Lan gave him two pieces of good news.
The first one is the investment agreement about Lanfang Port. COSCO finally agreed on the final details and waited for Gu Kun to formally sign it. After he signed it, he restored the original copy and brought it back to Lanfang, and asked Sa Wuyang to sign it too.
.
Because this is a three-party cooperation investment?
From Sa Wuyang's side, it is estimated that there will not be any objections, because the terms have been repeatedly confirmed through Gu Kun's many remote negotiations this month.
The second good news is that the nearly 12 million survey fees that Gu Kun requested from the relevant departments have finally been officially received.
However, because it was He Lan who helped him get it, it must be dealt with as a "triangular debt" - the bulk of 10 million yuan will be deducted directly by COSCO East China according to He Kun's capital injection, and the remaining 1.7 million yuan will be deducted directly.
Only when you spend money will it be remitted to Gu Kun's company's account.
The total investment Gu Kun committed in the agreement is 30 million yuan, and he will personally hold 10.2% of the shares in Lanfang Port in the future. So this time it is only a payment. In June and December next year, he still needs to pay according to the agreement.
Injecting 10 million each time will be considered as full investment.
Large-scale projects generally do not require all funds to be fully paid before starting construction. 30% of the capital is definitely enough to start construction. Investors who are more ruthless will not have 30% of the funds.
The matter could be explained clearly over the phone, but Gu Kun had to pick up the agreement in person, so he immediately drove to COSCO and explained it clearly to He Lan in person.
"Thank you, Manager He, for your help. I hope we will have a pleasant cooperation in the future."
After taking care of everything, Gu Kun looked at the extra money in the accounts of his marine surveying company and said some words of gratitude to He Lan from the bottom of his heart.
He Lan: "When will you return to Lanzhou for them to sign? As long as the funds are in place, our preliminary construction team will be ready in a week."
In the investment agreement, the details of the project construction are also stipulated. The Lanzhou side only sends out supervisors, while the overall command of the project and the cost budget are controlled by the Chinese side. The labor force also mainly relies on "foreign workers" sent by the Chinese side, because in 1994
It is definitely cheaper for Chinese people to go abroad to work than local labor.
Gu Kun: "I can fly to Kuching the day after tomorrow because there are no flights tomorrow. Have someone bring one of the stamped originals back before the weekend."
…
After buying the ticket, it was already a little late.
Gu Kun estimated that all the teachers were off work, so he decided to apply for leave tomorrow.
He drove directly back to his dormitory.
He may have to leave for quite some time, so it is both emotionally and logically appropriate to say goodbye to his classmates.
The legitimate reasons for taking leave cannot be concealed. Sooner or later, all classmates will know it. There is no point in continuing to hide wealth and keep a low profile. Everyone will definitely know that he is a multi-millionaire.
When he first entered college, it was valuable to keep a low profile because he hoped to see clearly the true state of the teachers and classmates around him.
Which people sincerely make friends with him, and which people only try to please him when they see how rich he is? Now, after more than a month, I have seen clearly everything that needs to be seen.
That's why Gu Kun chose today to drive his Lincoln directly downstairs to his dormitory for the first time.
As expected, the Lincoln car attracted extra attention, so much so that while Gu Kun was still in the corridor, he was blocked by boys from the same dormitory and even the same class.
"Boss Gu, you usually hide well enough. I heard that you were called by someone from COSCO today to discuss a project."
"Looking at this car, you can tell it's all about big business."
After dealing with the compliments, Gu Kun returned to the dormitory and discussed with Huang Han and Zhou Yaoguang, who usually play the best:
"I may have to take a week or two off. Please take detailed notes on each course. I will also read books by myself when I have free time, but if I don't understand something, I still need to rely on your notes."
"It's not mentioned here. Even if we don't understand it ourselves, we can still help you figure it out." Huang Han, the room director, said politely.
Zhou Yaoguang was very self-aware and did not answer this question. It was not that his relationship with Gu Kun was not good enough, but that his grades were relatively poor in the dormitory, so he knew that his notes must be useless, and borrowing them would be a mistake.
At any rate, Huang Han's grades in various subjects can be considered above average.
After talking about borrowing notes, the roommates asked curiously. First, Huang Han asked about Gu Kun's business: "What big project are we talking about this time? If it's not a business secret, tell it and let the brothers start it."
Open your eyes."
"That is, the expansion of a port in our country is in cooperation with COSCO. Don't think too exaggeratedly. The current scale is tens of millions."
Gu Kun is telling the truth. The 200 million yuan was gradually invested in two years. The current construction stage is indeed only tens of millions.
Everyone has this information from Jiaotong University and will be able to check it out sooner or later after construction starts.
"It turns out that your business is so big. If I were the principal, I would get you to study abroad even if you get zero marks in the exam..." Huang Han sighed with a slight sigh, and then realized that he had said the wrong thing, "Hey, I'm not that
Meaning, I know you’re not bad at reading either.”
"No need to explain, do you think I am the kind of person who cares about everything?" Gu Kun stopped the other party from apologizing.
Zhou Yaoguang was on the side, feeling a little embarrassed while watching this topic, and quickly helped Wailou: "Why are you talking about this? By the way, Akun, do you have a good personal relationship with Tang Jia from the National Relations Group? She is a famous beauty from the National Relations Group.
Well, with your conditions, if you really want to chase her, won’t you be able to catch her? Brother, let me tell you the truth. I heard that she has a high vision and has no partner to talk to. "
After saying that, Zhou Yaoguang sighed softly to himself: "It's great for them to study liberal arts. They have many more beauties than the hard-working guys like us who major in engineering."
"Where are these things? Don't make blind guesses." Gu Kun pushed Zhou Yaoguang to shut up.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? I just saw you in the classroom whispering to her and handing her a note. Let me tell you this. Based on my information, if other boys whispered to Tang Jia like this
If you whispered, she would have pushed you away."
"Okay, okay, I have confidential business and I have to keep it secret. Let me tell the truth. I have a girlfriend in Lanfang." Gu Kun quickly cut through the mess, and the last sentence made him chatter to death.
Zhou Yaoguang's thoughts of gossiping and joking were put out by a bucket of cold water.
"*! We have been making trouble for a long time. We are a bunch of hard-working bachelors in engineering, and we are worrying about other successful people. It hurts our self-esteem, so we won't talk anymore."
"Hahaha, Lao Zhou, you have hit a wall. Don't think about it. I am a local tyrant and evil gentry. Is there a lack of confidante around me? Why don't you just eat carrots and worry about it?"
The people in the same dormitory chatted for a while, and then made an appointment to go out for a meal as a farewell to Gu Kun.
Gu Kun, who was acquainted with several classmates in the dormitory nearby, didn't mind if he wanted to follow him. It was just a meal, and after everyone knew his details, it was nothing.
…
After the dinner, Gu Kun considered getting up early the next day, so he chose to go back to the apartment in Jing'an Square and set an alarm clock for himself.
At about three or four o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang. Gu Kun forced himself to wake up, washed his face, and then found the contact information in the Netherlands that Van Bilsson had left for him before, and then made an international long distance call there.
Van Bilzon originally left two contact information for Gu Kun, one in Jakarta and the other in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Gu Kun got to know him some time ago and knew that Van Bilzon had gone to the Netherlands recently to help him manage the auction of sunken shipwrecks and salvaged property. So he could contact him by calling the Amsterdam number.
Just because of the time difference, he had to get up early in the morning to catch up with the other party's working hours.
The two parties chatted for a while about the previous shipwreck shipment issue.
"Mr. Bilson, are my auction arrangements in place? When can the auction start and when can I get the money?"
"Oh, dear Gu, I am going to inform you in a few days. Your auction is scheduled for... Let me calculate, well, six days later, anyway, it will be Sunday, October 23rd. If everything goes well, the auction will
You can get the full amount one week after it ends."
Gu Kun: "Very good, then I will fly from Jakarta to Amsterdam in five days. I hope you can help me arrange the transportation after arriving in the Netherlands."
Van Bilson: "Of course it's no problem, it's a piece of cake."
Gu Kun hung up the phone and counted the time. He just took advantage of this opportunity to help Lanzhou-COSCO officially sign the contract and start construction. He asked for an extra week or two of leave to attend the auction in the Netherlands and buy things in Europe.
, done in one go.
After making contact, Gu Kun squinted for a few more hours, and then went to class as usual. After attending the first three classes in the morning, he ran to the hospital office during the break to apply for leave.
College students occasionally skip a day or two of class. In fact, no one will know if they don't ask for leave. However, since they start in two weeks at a time, the procedures must be more complete.
The teacher from the Academic Affairs Office of the college briefly asked about his situation and learned that it was for business reasons for cooperating with COSCO. He immediately approved it, but prepared a case and said that it might need to be reported.
Jiaotong University's Haiyuan Institute and Jiaotong University Design Institute/COSCO East China Company have inextricable business connections, and they are very accommodating in these aspects.
The teacher said very politely that if it was too late to finish the matter, you could postpone it at will and just come back and cancel the leave and explain the situation.
One day later, Gu Kun boarded a flight from Hujiang to Guangdong, and then transferred to Kuching. Then he found Savuyang in Kuching, completed all the procedures for Lan Fang, and entrusted a reliable
A dedicated person was sent back to China to submit the formal contract for the joint venture to build the port to COSCO.
He himself stayed in Kuching for three days, taking the opportunity to spend time with his woman and solve some physical and psychological problems, and then transferred from Kuching to Jakarta and flew to Amsterdam.
