Chapter 182 Calling for Help
At the eastern foot of Nanlang Mountain, Deep Water Bay Garden.
As soon as Lin Xi's car stopped, Uncle Ping, the housekeeper of the Bao Mansion, stepped forward and opened the door himself with a smile.
Yang Mo got out of the car and said with a smile: "Uncle Ping, you are trying to hurt me! I can't help you to open the door for me..."
Uncle Ping felt like he had a mirror in his heart. Looking at the whole of Xiangjiang, there were no more than five people worthy of his uncle Ping opening the car door himself, and Yang Mo was definitely one of them.
Uncle Ping bowed and said: "Mr. Yang, Mr. Bao is waiting for you in the study, please come with me!"
The Charter King heard the footsteps and walked out of the study to greet him. Yang Mo quickly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Uncle Bao, please come back quickly! Why are you so polite to me and Xiao Xi?"
Lin Xi also quickly stepped forward to support the charter king's arm, and said obediently: "Uncle Bao, it's been a long time since I came to say hello to you, but you are still so strong!"
The Charter King happily brought the two of them into the study. Uncle Ping closed the door and stood waiting not far from the study.
Yang Mo chatted all over the world for a while, then the chartering king chuckled and said, "You two won't make a special trip from London back to Xiangjiang to chat with an old man like me, right?"
Yang Mo then winked at Lin Xi. Lin Xi took out a stack of equity documents from the briefcase he carried with him and put them on the coffee table.
"What? Are you going to sell Zhiyuan Steel Company to me?" The chartering king flipped through it casually and asked in surprise.
"Uncle Bao, I want to mortgage it to you, not sell it!" Yang Mo corrected with a smile.
"Pledge it to me? What? Is there a problem with the capital chain? How much does it cost?" the chartering king asked worriedly.
Yang Mo chuckled and said: "Uncle Bao, there is no problem with Zhiyuan's capital chain, and all its companies are developing well. To be honest, this is an investment made by Zhiyuan in the London stock market. It needs follow-up funding support, so be prepared!"
The Charter King nodded and said: "Yes, be prepared for danger in times of peace. I think you are not a reckless person. You will not go to London alone to fight an uncertain battle. Tell me, how much does it cost?"
Yang Mo smiled bitterly and said: "Maybe it's because I didn't know enough about the Western securities market before. After experiencing it, I realized that it is extremely dangerous to snatch food from these financial giants. I had no choice but to come back to ask for help from Mr. Bao... …”
The chartering king also noticed Yang Mo's embarrassment, frowned and asked: "Is there a big funding gap?"
Yang Mo nodded and said: "Yes! General Han Xin, the more the better."
The chartering king pondered for a moment and then said: "I support you partially. If you take these equity documents to the bank, you should be able to borrow hundreds of millions. You still have to be careful. The financial market is full of intrigues, but it is not as good as doing business. If you are not careful, you will be There is no recovery!"
Yang Mo smiled bitterly and said: "Uncle Bao, the reason why I don't want to mortgage these shares with the bank is because I'm afraid that if something goes wrong, the controlling rights of Zhiyuan Steel Company will fall into the hands of others, and Zhiyuan will not enter the London stock market." News, I try not to let others know..."
The chartering king thought for a while and then said: "Okay! Zhiyuan Steel Company is now valued at around US$10 billion. I will find a way to help you raise US$7 million..."
After getting the promise from the charter king, Yang Mo used part of the equity of Daqingwan Machinery Factory to borrow US$3 million from Pan-Asia Bank...
At the end of July, Yang Mo, who had received the loan, flew to London again.
Different from last time, this time Yang Mo transferred all the billion-dollar loan brought from Xiangjiang to Zhiyuan International's newly opened account at the London branch of Deutsche Bank.
Qian Ning followed suit and signed a one-year hedging contract with Deutsche Bank for the funds, converting 1 U.S. dollar into 3.5 marks.
Zhiyuan International is registered in Hannover. It is a German company. It owns well-known enterprises such as Cima Machine Tool Company, Bayern Munich Club, and Coburg Thuringia Forest Resort.
In order to avoid exchange rate risks in cross-border operations, it is also an international practice for German companies to make some hedging contracts to hedge risks. Although the amount is relatively large, no bank would dislike the large scale of customer funds...
After this batch of funds went around in Deutsche Bank, they were dispersed and transferred to other accounts.

After John Laird knocked lightly on the door, he walked into George Summer's office.
"Is something wrong?" George Summer raised his head and asked.
"It's not a big deal. I found out that another $1 million in funds came into the foreign exchange trading account opened by Qianhai Asset Management in our bank..." John Laird bowed and said.
"Another $1 million came in? Isn't their $[-] million guarantee enough?" George Summer raised his head and asked in surprise.
"That's not true. These Easterners operate very carefully and are not as reckless as we thought. Their positions have been well controlled, and the margin is still far from the warning line!" John Laird replied.
"Then they suddenly increased the margin to continue to increase their positions? Didn't you say that their operations were a bit disorganized?" George Summer asked with a frown.
John Laird looked embarrassed and said with a wry smile: "Your Excellency, President, I may have been deceived by some of the illusions they deliberately created..."
"Deliberately created illusion?" George Summer's face also became solemn.
John Laird continued: "Their frequent operations are just to cover up their main contracts. I found that they bought a lot of contracts with pounds, marks, and francs as the quoted currencies, but they were all spot contracts or short-term contracts. These contracts After closing the position, I discovered that almost all of their main contracts were one-year forward contracts, and they all used the US dollar as the base currency to buy Japanese yen..."
George Sommer was lost in thought.
John Laird continued: "Mr. President, what I don't understand is why they go around in such a big circle to hide their trading intentions? If it is understood that they are afraid of becoming a sniper target for others, but their positions are almost impeccable, I dare Bet, no consortium can take such a safe position, and what’s even more puzzling is that they deliberately pretended to be idiot novices who didn’t understand anything in front of me..."
After George Summer pondered for a long time, he waved his hand and said: "John, continue to pretend you don't know anything, observe their operating ideas secretly, and report to me any abnormalities at any time..."
After John Laird left, George Summer called Tokyo International Long Distance: "Mr. Jonathan, I seem to be completely unable to understand the operating ideas of these Easterners. Moreover, we also made a fatal mistake. From the beginning, we thought they might not be able to understand at all." Don’t understand the foreign exchange market…”
Jonathan exclaimed: "Oh my god! Mr. George, did I hear wrongly? Do you think Qianhai Asset Management Company will send a newcomer who knows nothing to manage an investment of US$10 billion? That's US$[-] billion... "
