Chapter 116 Adidas was hunted by Wall Street and asked Yang Chen for reinforcement
Since Yang Chen led the five major banks to retaliate against foreign investment, many domestic and foreign funds have wanted to let Yang Chen make profits.
Their requirements are not high, and they are satisfied with an annual rate of return of around 8%, but they must ensure that their funds can be withdrawn at any time after one year.
Now that the global economy is in recession, many funds are afraid to invest in foreign industries at will. The financial product launched by Yang Chen with a guaranteed annual return of 6% has naturally become their first choice.
Anyone who understands financial data knows that residents' deposits have been increasing sharply in recent years. Banks have tried their best to lend money but cannot. The additional currency issued by the central bank is idling in the banking system and cannot be circulated.
How do banks make profits?
They absorb deposits, give depositors low interest rates, and then lend these deposits to earn high interest rates. The interest difference between the two is their income.
But now residents' deposits have been increasing sharply, but loans cannot be extended. This will cause a problem. The deposits received by banks have not generated income, but they still have to pay interest on these deposits.
If the situation is not serious, the bank will only reduce its income. If an extreme situation occurs and the interest on residents' deposits exceeds the investment income from lending, then the bank will lose money.
Now there is a financial product that guarantees a minimum return of 6% and can reach a maximum return of 10%. Banks need it most. For them, it is a timely help.
The current interest rate for one-year bank deposits is 1.9%. Even based on the minimum 6% return rate promised by Xingli No. 1, there is still a 4.1% return difference.
And with Yang Chen's ability and the promise of this financial product, investing in this financial product is much safer than lending to companies or individuals.
Li Jun, the president of ICBC Jiangcheng Branch, called Yang Chen.
"Hey, Director Yang, reserve a quota of 50 billion for me. Whether the business can be completed this year depends on your financial product." Li Jun said with a smile.
Yang Chen laughed loudly and said: "I have only issued a total of 100 billion, and you, a bank, want 50 billion. Do you think it is possible? Besides, this time you must apply for purchase from the Sihai Financial APP. You can grab it yourself. Find It’s no use to me either.”
Li Jun hurriedly said: "We must buy a large amount of money. I'm thinking of mobilizing all the funds and giving them to you at once, and you allocate financial products to us at once, so that it is convenient for everyone. Let's grab it bit by bit, that's a lot more Trouble.”
Yang Chen explained: "There are too many funds that want to be operated by me. If I directly intervene to decide how much to give to whom, I will definitely offend people. For example, you want a quota of 50 billion now, and I agreed. Other bank presidents will wait. It costs 50 billion to make a phone call. Where can I get the credit for them? But if I give it to you, they will definitely feel that I am alienated from them, don’t you think?”
Li Jun thought about it and it seemed that this was indeed the case. It would be easiest for customers to rush to buy by themselves. If you grab more or less, you can rely on your own ability. No one can find an excuse to get into trouble with Yang Chen.
Li Jun quickly said: "Okay, I'll quickly instruct each branch to buy. It's over."
Just as the phone was hung up, Wang Wanli, the general manager of Longguo Bank, called Yang Chen.
"Hey, Director Yang, our Xingli No. 1 is fully covered by Longguo Bank. I am mobilizing funds. You should stop selling it quickly and give us the rest." Wang Wanli said hurriedly.
100 billion may seem like a lot, but it is actually a lot, but it is nothing to a bank like Longguo Bank.
Yang Chen smiled and said: "President Wang, don't embarrass me. The reason why I released this financial product is because I don't want to offend any capital. If you want it, just go and buy it. It depends on your ability to grab as much or as little as you want. You can't blame me. If I Promise to give it to so and so, The remaining unpurchased capital is my fault. I have seen the list of clients who want to invest their money with me, and there are several powerful investors and leaders in it. I don’t want to offend anyone, and I hope President Wang can be more considerate.”
Wang Wanli quickly said: "Oh, that's it. I understand, I understand. That's okay, I won't embarrass Director Yang. I'll ask the branches in various places to buy it themselves."
Not long after Yang Chen hung up the phone, the heads of banks of various sizes at home and abroad called Yang Chen one after another, begging Yang Chen to leave them more shares.
Yang Chen rejected them with the same reason and asked them to buy according to their own abilities.
An hour later, crazy customers bought more than 30 billion in financial products.
Seeing that Xingli No. 1 is so popular, some people can't sit still. Apart from other financial product issuing companies, the ones who least want to see this happen are the real estate alliances represented by Baoli Real Estate and Wangke Real Estate. .
Because the investment target of Xingli No. 1 is very clear, 20% of the funds will be used for stock market investment, and 80% of the funds will be given to Sihai Real Estate for interest-free loans.
Once Sihai Real Estate has funds, it can resume work. As long as the unfinished projects can be completed and delivered to the owners, other cities will definitely lift the restrictions on Sihai Real Estate's land acquisition. They want to force local governments to force Yang Chen to take back the strategy of paying dividends to owners. If it is going to fail, the local governments will definitely coax Yang Chen in order to encourage Sihai Real Estate to acquire land.
The bosses of these real estate companies have no better way. They certainly can't spend hundreds of millions to distribute dividends to owners every year like Sihai Real Estate. Yang Chen can't communicate with him, so they can only use this disgraceful method to force Yang Chen. compromise.
In a business war, people will only see the glory of the winner. As for the methods used by the winner, no one cares.
Therefore, the Real Estate Alliance immediately bribed the media and self-media to publish articles that discredited Xingli No. 1, hoping to prevent everyone from buying Xingli No. 1.
Finance Today: Sihai Group, which has a debt of RMB 3 trillion, has just cashed in the principal and interest of its financial management customers, and immediately issued another financial management product worth RMB 100 billion. Moreover, the investment target is very scary. Only 20% is used for stock investment, and the remaining 80% of the funds will be given to Sihai Real Estate for interest-free loans. Isn't there any supervisory department involved in investigating such a blatant act of conveying benefits? 80% of the funds are given to Sihai Real Estate as interest-free loans. Sihai Real Estate now has total liabilities of more than 2 trillion yuan. How will it repay the 80% of the funds after one year? They are blatantly stealing investors' money. Everyone must be careful when buying, and be careful not to fall into a pit and not get out.
Tonghua Finance: Sihai Financial released a new financial product, Xingli No. 1, and blatantly loaned 80% of the funds to Sihai Real Estate without interest, leaving only 20% for stock investment, but also promised to guarantee a minimum of 6 to customers after one year. %, up to 10% profit. Such blatant fraud and treating people completely like fools. People all over the country know that Sihai Real Estate has such a big debt hole. If you give it 80% of the interest-free loan, you will never get it back. It’s really because you want his interest and he wants your principal.
Subsequently, the Financial News, Economic News, Real Estate News, Dahongshuo Finance and other media and self-media followed up and criticized the 80% interest-free loan issue of Xingli No. 1.
Under normal circumstances, dozens of media and overwhelming self-media accounts would criticize Xingli No. 1 for providing an interest-free loan of 80% of its funds to Sihai Real Estate as a blatant attempt to defraud investors. Xingli No. 1 should not be able to be sold.
but!
The actual situation is exactly the opposite.
Before getting off work, the 100 billion quota of Xingli No. 1 was sold out.
Investors simply ignored the overwhelming criticism and gave a strong response with their actual actions.
Chen Chao called Yang Chen excitedly, and he said excitedly: "Haha... Director Yang, Xingli No. 1 is sold out, and it is not affected by the media and self-media at all. I originally thought that such a large-scale financial product It will take many days to sell, and with their large-scale mischief, it may take longer to sell out, or even not be sold out at all. Now I realize that I was overly worried. With your golden name, Mr. Yang, it is impossible. Not enough to sell.”
Yang Chen said with a smile: "Those fools are just doing useless work. Just based on my cooperative relationship with a few banks, a mere 100 billion is not enough for them to share. No one knows my strength better than the five major banks, how much I issue , they dare to buy as much as they dare. Otherwise, why would you think I would bring the bank with me to make money? I have already planned to get to this point with Sihai Real Estate’s direct financing loan, so I formulated this method to obtain funds. Strategy.”
Chen Chao patted the horse again and said: "In the final analysis, Mr. Yang is so awesome. Everyone recognizes and trusts you, otherwise it would not have been sold out so quickly. There are still many customers who have not bought it and asked us if we will continue in the future. How do I respond to them when launching such a financial product?”
Yang Chen explained: "You have to take your time when investing in the stock market. There is too much money that cannot be digested at once. If we cannot fulfill the return commitment to our customers, that would be a bad thing. We must push more, but we need to spread it a little further." Time cannot allow all funds to be cashed out in a short period of time. At that time, the financial pressure will be very great, and a thunderstorm is likely to occur. ”
Chen Chao quickly said: "I understand. Then I will find an excuse to stabilize the customer first. You can do your business."
Just as the phone was hung up, the bank presidents called Yang Chen again.
"Hey, Director Yang, are you launching other similar financial products? We have trillions of deposits in hand that we can't put out. Do you think you can invest them all?" said ICBC President Zhao Kun.
Yang Chen said speechlessly: "Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid that I will run away? Where can you invest the trillions? Even if you use it all to buy mud, you can still buy the local mud at a sky-high price."
Zhao Kun smiled awkwardly and said, "I understand this. Banks are having a hard time now. Residents' deposits have been increasing, but loans cannot be issued. We lose interest on deposits every day when we open our eyes. We have to find some opportunities." Invest and make money. There is no better way to invest than Mr. Yang’s financial products. I hope Mr. Yang will issue more and save our bank.”
I'm crazy.
Saving the bank is such a niche term in the Dragon Kingdom.
"Wairui, please stop being pretentious with me. Let's see what happens next. I have to make almost the first phase of funds before I can push for the second phase. I can't make a single mistake now, and I have to be cautious in every step. ." Yang Chen said.
Zhao Kun said: "Okay. Then we have agreed that when we push the second phase, at least 50 billion must be reserved for me in advance. If it is less than this amount, the relationship between us brothers will fade away."
Yang Chen smacked his lips helplessly and said: "You...don't embarrass me. If you ask for this much, other people will definitely call me later and ask for this much. I have collected so much money and gone to Where to invest?”
Zhao Kun said with a smile: "If it doesn't work at home, you can invest abroad. We can lend you the accounts of several of us and use them as you like. Don't worry about being embarrassed by foreigners if you make too much, we will help you. As long as we don't break off diplomatic relations, there will be no problem." No one dares to touch our legitimate assets.”
That's true, but you still have to do it step by step, and you can't overwhelm yourself by collecting too much money at once.
"I'll look at it again. Hang up. President Wang of Longguo Bank called again." Yang Chen said.
Zhao Kun quickly said: "Okay! Then I won't disturb you anymore, hang up."
There were constant calls every day, and Yang Chen almost became a customer service person.
Seeing that Yang Chen had received 100 billion in funds at once, Liu Yaming, chairman of the Golden Blade Group, called him.
"Director Yang, you have made so much money recently, please give us some. The pressure is really too much." Liu Yaming said.
"The money I earn is my personal asset and cannot be confused with the company's assets. You should understand this. I have now tried to save Sihai Real Estate. When Sihai Real Estate comes back to life, your debts will hopefully be repaid." Yang Chen replied road.
"Didn't you just inject 300 billion into Sihai Real Estate? Take some 5 billion out of it and give it back to us first. Can I call you dad? I really can't bear it anymore." Liu Yaming said, almost crying by the sound of his voice. .
Yang Chen smiled and said: "You call me dad, do you listen to what I say?"
Liu Yaming immediately said: "Listen! You must listen!"
"Okay, listen to dad and don't ask for it for now." Yang Chen said.
Liu Yaming: "..." Yang Chen explained: "Okay, okay, stop joking and be serious. The most important thing now is to resume and deliver all unfinished projects so that the frozen funds can be unfrozen. No land is allowed." The ban can only be lifted and Sihai Real Estate can survive. You think 5 billion is not enough. It’s a lot of money, but this 5 billion can help a community that only needs landscaping and other work to complete the final project and successfully deliver it to the owner. If you think of a way to persist for another year and a half, I guarantee that I will give you more for the new properties in the future. Can a few do the decoration?”
Liu Yaming was silent for a moment, and finally sighed and said: "Okay, okay. Then you have to keep your promise and give me a few more new disks to make."
Yang Chen said with a smile: "You must keep your promise. After all, he is your son. I will not favor you, but who will I favor?"
Liu Yaming: "Haha..."
After hanging up the phone, Yang Chen let out a sigh of relief.
Yang Chen injected 300 billion to revitalize Sihai Real Estate's business. When Sihai Real Estate is revived, he can make money to pay off debts. Didn't he inject capital into Sihai Real Estate to pay off debts? The two trillion debts need to be paid off by his injection?
At this time, the system issued a message.
"It is detected that the host refuses to repay the debt to the Golden Knife Mantis Group. The system rewards the host with [Super Basketball Coach] skills, which will take effect immediately."
In an instant, countless figures playing basketball appeared in Yang Chen's mind, and returned to normal after a while.
The system is so considerate, until Yang Chen formed the basketball team, he immediately gave him this useful reward.
With this reward, Yang Chen can promote the Sihai Basketball Team into a team that shocks the world just like the Sihai Football Team.

other side.
Huo Qiuyan, chairman of Baoli Real Estate, is on the phone with Yu Hongliang, chairman of Wangke Real Estate.
"These people are crazy. We spent so much money to warn them that there was a big hole in Xingli No. 1, but they still bought all the 100 billion financial products." Huo Qiuyan said angrily.
Yu Hongliang sighed and said: "They believe in Yang Chen's investment ability too much. If 20% is used for investment, it is only a five-fold increase. It is not a difficult task for Yang Chen."
Huo Qiuyan also sighed, so much public relations money was wasted.
However, they will definitely not give up easily, and will continue to find ways to put pressure on Yang Chen and force him to cancel the policy of paying dividends to owners.
……
Sihai Sports President Chen Yulong came to Yang Chen's office.
"Director Yang, according to your instructions, the Sihai Basketball Team has been formed. You can inspect it at any time." Chen Yulong said.
For Yang Chen, engaging in sports is not the core. The core is to earn endorsement fees through sports.
"Let's go take a look, just in time to stretch our muscles." Yang Chen said with a smile.
Sihai Sports restarted the previous basketball division and carried out emergency repairs and upgrades to the basketball training ground.
However, it is not enough to qualify for admission to the LBA. They must have a home arena.
This doesn't matter to Yang Chen, he can solve the problem with just one phone call.
Soon Yang Chen met all members of the basketball team, 15 players, plus a 5-person coaching staff, as well as a 10-person trainer, nutritionist, team medical team, and other logistics support personnel.
According to Yang Chen's requirements, this group of players are all under 20 years old, and all have signed 15-year long-term contracts with the club. This basically guarantees that they will not be able to play in other clubs after their contracts expire, lest Yang Chen has trained them, and if they go to play in other clubs in the future, it will be easier for other clubs.
This group of players has good physical fitness and can play in fast-break lineups or positional lineups. Yang Chen is very satisfied.
"Let's go to the training ground and I will start training you. My time is limited, and each of you must study hard. You only have one chance. If you perform well and become a starting player, you can make a lot of money in the future. If you perform poorly, you can only be a substitute. , I can only guarantee that I will have enough food and clothing," Yang Chen said very frankly.
Chen Yulong quickly said: "Everyone should cherish the opportunity of being trained by Director Yang himself. The Sihai Football Team was trained by Director Yang before they brutally beat the Sakura Team. There is only one chance to change your destiny, and everyone must do their best. ”
The expressions of the players were visibly serious.
The physical fitness of these young people is only better than that of ordinary people in the Dragon Kingdom. If compared with NBA players, it is still much worse.
Therefore, the techniques and tactics Yang Chen taught them imitated the techniques and tactics of the Warriors at their peak, trying to avoid physical confrontation and rely on running to pull out open shots to solve the problem.
This requires everyone on the field to shoot accurately, otherwise the strategy will not work.
The top priority of Yang Chen's training for them is shooting in various situations, fixed-point shooting, running to catch and shoot, shooting under the opponent's physical confrontation, etc.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Yang Chen finished training and returned to the office.
Yang Chen called Wang Wenkang.
"Hey, Mayor Wang, the Sihai Basketball Team has been formed. Now we need a home arena. You can help us get it." Yang Chen said.
Wang Wenkang quickly replied: "No problem! I will renovate and expand the basketball court of the Municipal Gymnasium for you to use. Do you think it is okay?"
Yang Chen smiled and said: "Okay! As long as there is a home court. Then I will leave it to you to follow up. I will contact the NBA to come and play a friendly match with us."
Wang Wenkang laughed loudly and said: "Really? You want the NBA to send a team to play a friendly match with the newly formed Sihai Basketball Team? Then will they be willing? Besides, the team you just formed can play NBA team? ”
"Then you must underestimate my team. These brothers work hard and the training effect is very good. Now I not only train their skills, but also their tactics. I can definitely train them in a short time. Over there Hold on tight, don't delay our competition venue," Yang Chen said.
Wang Wenkang smiled and said: "No problem."
Real Madrid will be playing in a few days. Hotels and guesthouses in Jiangcheng City have been fully booked these days. This is an economic gain.
If the NBA can send a team to compete, Jiangcheng City's tourism economy can continue to grow, which is a political achievement.
It is no exaggeration to say that whatever Yang Chen wants now, the Jiangcheng City Government will give it to him.
At this time, Chen Xi came over.
"Director Yang, many clubs in Europe have called and said that it is difficult to apply for visas, player visas, and fan visas. Many fans want to come to the game, but the visas cannot be obtained. They hope that we can provide them here. Think of a way to solve this problem," Chen Xi said.
Longguo has strict restrictions on visas, and it is really difficult for ordinary foreigners to apply for visas.
Yang Chen thought for a moment, and then said to Chen Xi: "You reply to them, and I will solve the visa problem."
Chen Xi nodded and turned back to the office to reply to the European side.
Yang Chen called Jiangcheng Mayor Huang Zhenhua and explained the visa issue.
Huang Zhenhua said: "Oh, this is indeed a big problem, and it is a big problem that I can't solve."
Yang Chen said with a smile: "In addition to the scheduled friendly football matches, I will soon invite NBA teams to come over for pre-season games. Wouldn't it be a pity if many foreign fans can't come because of visa issues? I am Thinking this way, many foreign media are spreading rumors to smear us every day. Why not take this opportunity to open the visa-free policy and let foreign fans come and watch? Watch the game and see what the real Dragon Country looks like. In this way, foreigners will not be misled by their media. They will have a true understanding of our Dragon Country, and more foreigners will come to us in the future. Tourism, we can also develop international tourism, even if we only allow foreign tourists to transit without visas for a few days.”
Huang Zhenhua thinks Yang Chen's idea is good and he can really try it.
"Just wait for my news." Huang Zhenhua said.
Yang Chen smiled and said: "Okay, please, I'll wait for your news."
In the evening, when Yang Chen was about to go home from get off work and enjoy life, Hebner, the chairman of Adidas, called him.
"Hey, Director Yang, something big has happened. I just received news from the brokers. Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, Tiger Management, Bear Stearns, Vanguard, and BlackRock are all shorting our stocks. Stocks. With so many institutions taking action at the same time, it seems that he They must have knocked our company's stock price to the ground this time. They must have seen that Director Yang bought our company's stock, so they sent out so many institutions to short our stock price at the same time. Director Yang, you must help. Me." Hebner said anxiously.
Yang Chen smiled and said: "Don't talk nonsense, I also bought Nike, why don't they short Nike?"
"Nike is the Bald Eagle's own company, how could they short Nike?" Hebner replied.
Yang Chen immediately said: "Isn't that enough? They are shorting your company because you are easy to bully, and it has nothing to do with me. I made some profits after buying Adidas, so I can just sell it now. You can slowly fight them. .”
Hebner quickly said: "Mr. Yang, don't be like this, you can't ignore us. In this way, as long as you help us complete the stock price defense battle, we Adidas will sponsor your basketball team again. How about it?"
It's definitely not possible to ask Yang Chenbai to help, but giving benefits is another matter.
Yang Chen said with a smile: "Fake! Don't these financial robbers know that Adidas is my partner? If they touch Adidas, they will touch me. I will never agree! This horse can't bear it! Hebner Sir, please rest assured, I guarantee that the stock price of Adidas will not only not fall, but will also rise to more than 100 eagle coins after they complete the short-selling process.”
