Chapter 336: The First Private Investment Bank in China

"Mom, I just heard from the neighbors that my dad has raised the level again?" Zhao Dong asked.

"Yes, I was promoted to deputy department, but since I don't have a part-time job in the department, I'm just a hollow person and can't do anything." Li Meizhu said with a smile.

"Nonsense, he was deputy director last year and was promoted to two levels this year. I think he is too fast. Do you still want him to fly? If he runs too fast, he will fall."

The old man lectured.

"Yes, yes, the old man is right."

Li Meizhu quickly nodded to accept the lesson and made a face at Zhao Dong and Lindsay behind the old man's back, making them laugh and laugh.

"Dongdong, your dad should be transferred from the public security system this time." The old man suddenly said.

"My dad has been a soldier for 20 years. If he doesn't work in local public security, what can he do? Work in national security?" Zhao Dong said.

The old man pointed at Zhao Dong and said: "You and your wife have built such a big business in the United States, and the money you control is said to be about the same as the country's foreign exchange. Why do you think the higher-ups want to transfer your father to do it?"

"In charge of the money bag?" Zhao Dong blurted out.

"I don't know now. He will talk to you when he comes back later," the old man said.

After a while, Mei Lin arranged bodyguards and returned to Zhao's house.

She is Lindsay's personal assistant, so of course she has to follow him around and will also live in Zhao's house.

More than an hour later, the sky darkened, and Zhao Zhenguo came back in the Santana that Zhao Dong bought for him.

"Dad, you are back."

Zhao Dong and Lindsay quickly stood up to greet them.

"Uh-huh!"

Zhao Zhenguo nodded and looked at the two of them. Just as he was about to say something, Zhao Dacheng ran in and shouted: "Dad, I'm waiting for you. The neighbors are all hungry and the food is on the table."

"Then let's go."

Zhao Zhenguo waved his hand and went to help the old man and the old lady. The two old men were very strong and stood up quickly.

The restaurant is located more than 200 meters outside the alley, just a few steps away. There are twenty or thirty tables.

It was very lively.

It was after eight o'clock that Zhao Dong's family returned to the courtyard.

"Zhao Dong, come here after you and Weiwei wash up." Zhao Zhenguo said.

"Hey, I got it." Zhao Dong said.

After the two hurriedly washed up, they came to Zhao Zhenguo's left compartment.

Zhao Zhenguo has a small study here, where he thinks about things. After the three of them went in, Li Meizhu made some fruit tea and went in.

Zhao Zhenguo was drinking tea while thinking about what to say, but Zhao Dong was too lazy to wait and said first: "Dad, the old man said that you will be transferred out of the public security system. Which department will you go to?"

Zhao Zhenguo glanced at Zhao Dong and said, "Not sure."

"Then what does it mean?" Zhao Dong said.

"Don't talk about me first, let's talk about your affairs." Zhao Zhenguo waved his hand.

"Want to know more from above?" Zhao Dong said.

"Yes." Zhao Zhenguo nodded.

Zhao Dong understands that the storm controls such a large amount of funds in the United States, which even exceeds the country's current foreign exchange reserves. Now is the time for the country to develop. If it is short of money and thirsty, can you not see it?

So Zhao Dong explained in detail the development of the storm, from registration to the ongoing evacuation plan, as well as the previous financial crisis in Southeast Asia.

Zhao Zhenguo said nothing and had no expression on his face, but in fact the shock in his heart was too great.

He never thought that his son and daughter-in-law would create such a big situation after being outside for two or three years.

How can it be embarrassing that such a big country has only managed to accumulate so little wealth after all these years of development? Are your son and daughter-in-law so capable? unbelievable.

"Dad, not all the money from the storm belongs to us. Tens of billions of dollars have been redeemed now. In the future, all of this money will have to be redeemed, which means that its funds will be disbanded." Zhao Dong finally said.

Zhao Zhenguo said anxiously: "No, why are your funds disbanded? Hundreds of billions of dollars would be great if they could be returned to the country for development. The country is now short of money and foreign exchange!"

Zhao Dong shook his head and said: "Those funds are chasing short-term profits and will not come to invest in the country. If we bring the funds back to invest in domestic industries, it will immediately trigger the redemption of the big rules, which will eventually directly lead to the collapse of the storm. .”

Zhao Zhenguo was extremely disappointed, shook his head and sighed: "My superiors and I thought you could really control those funds?"

Zhao Dong and Lindsay looked at each other, and the latter said: "Dad, don't worry, Dongdong and I are preparing to open a large commercial investment bank in Hong Kong City. By then, we will be able to attract a large amount of funds to invest in the country."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhenguo perked up and immediately said, "You want to open a bank in Hong Kong?"

"You want to open a bank?"

At this point, he realized that his old son and his wife were actually going to open a bank? This is unimaginable to him. Can a private person open a bank?

"Dad, CITIC was established in China in 1987. Why are you so surprised?" Zhao Dong said with a smile.

"CITIC is CITIC, CITIC Group is a state-owned enterprise, and that is a commercial bank run by a state-owned enterprise. You are a private bank, openly engaging in capitalism in the country..."

Zhao Zhenguo glared at Zhao Dong, stopped mid-sentence, and asked hurriedly: "If you open a private bank in Hong Kong City, will anyone deposit money?"

Zhao Dong laughed, and after being glared at by his father, he quickly explained: "We don't do deposit and loan business, we only recruit funds, specifically for investment. It's similar to the current storm, but the business is broader and pays more attention to the medium and long term. interests and greater influence.”

"How much can we get...just recruit?" Zhao Zhenguo asked hurriedly.

"The planned recruitment scale is more than 300 billion US dollars." Zhao Dong said.

"What?"

Zhao Zhenguo was startled by this number and almost bit his tongue.

This amount already exceeds the national foreign exchange reserves by a lot.

"Can you recruit so much money? Why should others trust you?" he asked doubtfully.

Lindsay smiled and said: "Dad, our Storm is currently the large investment fund with the highest return rate on Wall Street. It has a very good reputation. We do not accept ordinary funds."

"Still picking and choosing? Didn't you just say that tens of billions of dollars have been redeemed?" Zhao Zhenguo said.

Zhao Dongdao: "That's because we plan to withdraw from U.S. stocks, and the current mainstream investment desire is to continue to be bullish, that is, optimistic about investing in U.S. stocks, so it has caused some redemptions. Dad, don't ask about these things, and you won't even say it. Understand."

Zhao Zhenguo wanted to glare again, but after thinking that he really couldn't understand what he heard, he had to ask: "What if we lose money? Do you want to pay for it yourself?"

"How is that possible? Once there is a loss in investment, our reputation will be damaged, and the investors will be responsible for their own profits and losses." Zhao Dong said with a smile.

"That is not bad."

Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhao Zhenguo asked: "Tell me about the commercial investment bank you want to open. Why should it be established in a Hong Kong city instead of Beijing? It's not like there are no commercial banks in the country. There are many."

Zhao Dongdao: "The current commercial banks in the country are all run by state-owned enterprises, or are collectively owned. We are a completely private commercial investment bank. Our funds come from abroad and are placed in Beijing. Domestic finance has not yet been opened up. The funds are How to get in?"

Zhao Zhenguo was stunned. He really couldn't understand this, so he had to say: "Then we can also set up an office or something? Didn't you say you want to invest in China?"

Zhao Dong said hurriedly: "Dad, do you think I don't want to? The policy doesn't allow it. I also want to open a branch in China. How about you tell the superiors and approve one for us?"

"Not allowed?"

When it came to a business that Zhao Zhenguo didn't quite understand, he shook his head helplessly and said, "You should talk to Mr. Zhu yourself."

"Mr. Zhu?"

Zhao Dong was startled, pointed at it and said, "The one who just became a regular member last year?"

"It's No. 2, who else can there be?" Zhao Zhenguo said angrily.

"Then make arrangements quickly. Our people have arrived in Hong Kong. With a team of several hundred people, the investment bank will be established soon." Zhao Dongdao.

"So fast?"

Zhao Zhenguo stood up and looked very anxious. After thinking about it, he walked out and said to Zhao Dong and others: "I'm going to see Mr. Zhu now. Follow me."

"Going at night?" Zhao Dong said in surprise.

"Time waits for us not."

When Zhao Zhenguo spoke, people were already outside.

"Then let's go."

Zhao Dong smiled and pulled Lindsay to follow him.

"Where are you going?"

Li Meizhu ran out of the room next to her and shouted.

"It's business, don't ask."

Zhao Zhenguo said as he got into the car and turned on the headlights, making the yard bright.

"The children have just come back, and they are not allowed to rest." Li Meizhu muttered.

"Mom, where are daddy taking my brother and the others?" Zhao Dacheng also ran out.

"They have business, you are just an idler, why do you ask?" Li Meizhu glared at her boss.

"Mom, I am the boss of Dongcheng Base. Thousands of national team members are training at my place. Am I an idler? My responsibility is bigger than the sky. The development of national sports industry is now pointing at me."

Zhao Dacheng immediately called out to Qu.

"Go away! Don't think Mom doesn't know. You don't go there every three days, you hang out with the trash in the compound, you run a movie company, and you hang out with some female stars. What do you think you have a future for?" Look at your brother, he’s going to see Mr. Zhu.”

Li Meizhu complained.

"Mom, I'm dealing with Jiang Wen, Wang Shuocheng, Kai Ge, Ma Modu and the others, how can they be trash?" Zhao Dacheng argued hard.

"Hey, how can they not be useless? Who of the talented people in the courtyard can join that circle? You see, Brother Ma Modu and Brother Cheng Kai are the same generation as your father. What is your father doing now? What are they doing? They are all like you These juniors are mixed together, just like this, can they act like elders in front of you?" Li Meizhu said disdainfully.

"I really can't handle this."

Zhao Dacheng was very helpless. With his background, his current position as his father, and the financial strength provided by his brother, he could allow Ma Modu Jiangwen and the others to put on airs in front of them. Wouldn't it be against the grain?

"Are you speechless? Get rid of that lousy company early, do some serious work, and fool around day by day." Li Meizhu said.

"Mom, this is professional discrimination. Jiang Wen and the others love this industry." Zhao Dacheng said helplessly.

"Come on, that's because they can't do the right thing." Li Meizhu said.

Zhao Dong and the other three did not return home until three o'clock in the morning.

"Finally back!"

Li Meizhu didn't sleep, and the lights were still on at home.

"Mom, are you still awake?" Zhao Dong said.

"You must be tired, Wei Wei. It's all your father's fault. He just came back today. He's not even jet-lagged yet, so he asked you to stay up late."

Li Meizhu ignored Zhao Dong and pulled Lindsay away from the house while scolding her man.

"It's okay, Mom, I slept on the plane, I'm not tired." Lindsay smiled.

"Wash your face first, and I'll cook dumplings for you. The water is still burning." Li Meizhu said.

"That's good. I drank all the water at Mr. Zhu's place. I didn't even prepare anything to stutter." Zhao Dong, who followed behind, said with a smile.

"It would be nice if you can have some water to drink at his place. Just have some fun." Zhao Zhenguo said.

"Come on, dad, I will invest hundreds of billions of dollars next year. If Mr. Zhu doesn't invite us to a state banquet next time, I'm not done with him!" Zhao Dong said.

"Don't talk about hundreds of billions of dollars, if you can bring in tens of billions of dollars, I can guarantee that President Zhu will treat you to a state banquet every day."

Zhao Zhenguo said with emotion.

"We each have more than tens of billions. It seems that we will get tired of this state banquet in the future!" Zhao Dong said with a smile.

"You?" Zhao Zhenguo was stunned.

He didn't know that his son actually had so much money, he always thought it belonged to others.

With tens of billions of dollars, China is now extremely wealthy! He couldn't imagine how much it cost. The pile was probably as high as the Fragrant Mountain, right?

"Hehe, mom, look..."

Lindsay grabbed Li Meizhu, who was about to make dumplings, and took out an ID card and a piece of paper from her bag.

"Weiwei, yours?"

Li Meizhu took it and took a look. The name on the ID card was Liu Wei, Han nationality, address in Beijing. The piece of paper was the household registration book. Her eyes widened.

"Uh-huh……"

Lindsay nodded repeatedly, her eyes widened with a smile, she glanced at Zhao Dong and said proudly: "Specially approved, I now have the same household registration as Dongdong."

"you are not?"

Li Meizhu was a little confused. Her daughter-in-law had several nationalities. Can the superiors recognize her?

"They say it is specially approved to facilitate her work in China. Opening a private bank definitely requires this status. How can a foreigner be allowed to open a private bank in China? You must not tell anyone."

Zhao Zhenguo reminded.

"Hey."

Li Meizhu smiled and nodded repeatedly.

After eating a bowl of dumplings, the family went to rest.

Zhao Dong and Lindsay gained a lot from meeting Mr. Zhu this time.

Mr. Zhu has agreed to allow them to establish a private commercial investment bank in the country, which is completely private. This is the first of its kind in the country. It will not work without courage.

But what is different from the original idea is that the headquarters will be located in Beijing, and a branch will be opened in Hong Kong. Funds will be transferred to the headquarters through the branch, and the state will open special channels.

The reason why Mr. Zhu set a precedent is because the funds brought by Zhao Dong and Lindsay are too huge and are too important for the current development of the country.

Another point is that the funds that Zhao Dong and Lindsay plan to recruit are funds from top European consortiums, and even some national funds. The network to be built is very extensive and the influence will be very large. This is for those who are planning to recruit. The countries joining the WTO are also very important.

Of course, because the Storm Fund is disbanding and recruiting new funds, everything is just an idea, so Mr. Zhu also said that only if Zhao Dong and Lindsay bring 10 billion US dollars in funds, the conditions he promised will be fulfilled.

Of course, this will not pose any difficulty to Zhao Dong and Zhao Dong. Their own funds are more than enough. They now have more than 10 billion US dollars in cash in Hong Kong City.

The next day, Lindsay began to revise the original plan at home, while Zhao Dong took Zhao Dacheng to Dongcheng Base.

A few bodyguards were left at home. There was actually no need for them in China. The purpose of bringing so many bodyguards here this time was actually to bring them to Hong Kong City.

The original Dongcheng Base has been closed. He went to the New Dongcheng Base, which is within the Third Ring Road, not far from home. It is the most advanced and largest comprehensive sports training and rehabilitation base in the country, and can be regarded as the most advanced in the world. The largest base of its type.

In fact, the base has not yet been fully completed. The buildings are completed, some are being renovated, some equipment is being installed, and most of them have been put into use.

The parking lot of Xindongcheng Base is outside the base and cannot be driven in directly. After Zhao Dong's car was parked, the two came to the gate.

"Ah, who did I see? God, Zhao Dong has returned to China. When did he come back?"

"Haha, I caught a big fish today!"

There were many media outside the gate. As soon as they saw Zhao Dong, they immediately rushed over and surrounded the two.

"..."

Liu Yumin, who was waiting for Zhao Dong at the gate, couldn't squeeze in and was very helpless.

"Liu Chu."

After Zhao Dong answered a few questions, he ended the interview and came to Liu Yumin.

"Zhao Dong, congratulations on your third consecutive championship..."

When Liu Yumin met, he congratulated Zhao Dong on completing the great cause of the dynasty.

"Thank you! Liu Chu, why are you so polite? Just go in and wait for me." After shaking hands, Zhao Dong smiled.

"I just arrived." Liu Yumin smiled.

While exchanging pleasantries, the three of them walked into the base, and the reporters were kept out.

Liu Yumin smiled and said to Zhao Dacheng: "Mr. Zhao, I haven't been here for a few days. How are you doing? You have completely left such a big stall to me."

"Hey, I don't understand either, and I don't want to make money from this. You, the General Administration, can figure it out. My brother also said, don't meddle indiscriminately. A layman can't control an expert. If I take too much control and give random instructions, everything may go wrong. ." Zhao Dacheng smiled.

Liu Yumin said to Zhao Dong: "Your brother is the boss, and we can't mess up such a big thing. The General Administration has to temporarily put me in charge of managing the Dongcheng base. Zhao Dong, what do you think?"

"Liu Chu, why don't we do this? We can jointly run this base, so it's justifiable." Zhao Dong suggested.

Liu Yumin smiled bitterly and said: "You have invested so much money this time, tens of millions of dollars. How can the General Administration have money?"

Zhao Dong waved his hand and said: "This base is my contribution to the domestic sports industry. Besides, such a large base occupies hundreds or thousands of acres of land in the city. Doesn't it count as an investment? This is the state's investment, and joint ventures are It’s the right thing to do. How can I be considered a sole proprietor? I don’t take advantage of the country.”

"Then, shall I report to the superiors?"

"become."

Entering the gate, there is a forest. Passing through the forest path is a huge playground, surrounded by a plastic track and various buildings, which looks very empty.

It's past nine o'clock now, and there are already many athletes training on the playground.

"..."

Looking at the young man doing hurdle training not far to the left, Zhao Dong almost blurted out the word "Liu Xiang".
