1960 [Slaying a knife]
After taking the most recent flight to the United States, Xia Tian and others finally arrived in Los Angeles safely after more than ten hours of flight.
After leaving the airport, Xia Tian immediately called back to Hong Kong.
"Mr. Xia, where are you now? I have never been able to contact you. The situation is very bad now!" Zhou Liang Shuyi immediately said happily when she received his call.
"I just arrived in the United States and called you as soon as I left the airport." Xia Tian smiled, "Don't worry, everything is OK with me."
"You have gone to the United States?!" Zhou Liang Shuyi was stunned. "Okay, you have the power there, so you don't have to worry about being bullied."
"Well, let's not talk about me for now, let's talk about the situation in Hong Kong." Xia Tian corrected the topic.
"Well, Mr. Xia, the situation in Hong Kong is not good now.
The police issued a statement to the public saying that our Tianxia Fund is suspected of money laundering and is currently under investigation. It also believes that you are a major suspect in the case and asks you to come to the police station to assist in the investigation immediately. It has also issued a subpoena to you, requiring you to report to the police station within two days.
Several media have also reported that Tianxia Fund has suffered serious losses, you have already fled with a huge amount of money, and they also said that investors are at risk of losing all their money.
The police statements and media reports have caused panic among investors. We have received many redemption applications, and they all said that they would rather not have interest but should keep the principal first. After our statistics, the amount of redemption funds has reached nearly 100 billion Hong Kong dollars." Zhou Liang Shuyi reported.
"Do you want to redeem it? Let them wait slowly. Just say that the fund is being investigated and the account book has been taken away by the police. You can't go through the redemption procedures. Let them go to the police for responsibility." Xia Tian sneered when he heard this.
He has invested the 300 billion Hong Kong dollars in funds raised by the World Fund for a long time. Tokyo's real estate, American stocks, oil wells in the Middle East, Marks in East Germany, and infrastructure in the mainland... everything is money.
I originally thought I could borrow chickens to lay eggs, but now that the chicken coop was just built, they wanted to take all the chickens away, so it was not that easy. Summer belongs to Taotie, and now the money has been in his pocket, so I want to pay it back, but there is no way.
"Mr. Xia, your reason..." Zhou Liang Shuyi was so amused and laughed and felt that Xia Tian's reason was really a bit rogue.
Although the police took away the fund's account, they were not unable to go through the redemption procedures. Xia Tian's approach was obviously a trick, but she didn't want to pay back the money. However, although she felt that, she was embarrassed to just say it clearly.
"Are you a rogue?" Xia Tian admitted directly, "There is nothing I can do. I have invested all the 300 billion Hong Kong dollars. Except for the stocks I invested in, I cannot turn into cash in the short term. So now the fund companies have no money at all, even if I want to help them redeem them, it is impossible for me to do so.
Besides, I always follow me when I make money, and now I will shrink back whenever I have something to do. Why do I do so cheaply? Even if I have money, I won’t give it to them so easily. Let them wait, it’s better to sue and fight for three or five years.”
...
"Mr. Xia, don't forget that the money is invested by us. If you really want to cheat, it will be difficult for us to be a human being in the middle." Zhou Liang Shuyi reminded Xia Tian with an embarrassing expression when she saw Xia Tian say this.
Private equity funds only allow fifty investors, so Xia Tian gave these fifty places to their relatives, friends and their subordinates as rewards.
They absorb funds from outside and invest in summer in their name. Summer gives them 10% of their annual share, and they give others 7% and 8% to earn the difference.
In order to help relatives and friends make money and to earn some interest spread, Zhou Liang Shuyi and others absorbed a large amount of funds from outside and transferred them to Xia Tian, entrusting him to invest. If he turns against each other now and refuses to pay back the money, then they are stuck in the middle, and are not human inside and outside, that would be really fatal.
Like Zhou Liang Shuyi, she invested in Xia Tian's 12.4 billion Hong Kong dollars. Of course, she doesn't have that much money anymore, but she is a member of the Hong Kong Legislative Council and a celebrity in the city. She has met many rich people, so it is naturally not difficult to raise more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.
But if Xia Tian insisted on not completing the redemption procedures, she would offend all the rich people, and many of them could not afford to offend her, so she would be in trouble now.
"Don't worry. The original intention of these fifty people to give you is to reward, so of course I won't make it difficult for you to do it." Xia Tian smiled, "You ask everyone to classify all redemption applications first and see which ones can be evaded first, so let them wait before talking about it, and give priority to those who cannot be offended.
I paid for my own money and bought their share. But it is impossible to recover the principal and interest together, so I can only buy it at a 20% discount. They like to sell it or not, just wait slowly if they don’t sell it."
Funds can be redeemed or transferred, of course, the premise is that someone is willing to take over. Otherwise, the transfer will not be transferred.
"20% off?" Zhou Liang Shuyi was stunned, "Will it be too few?"
People spent so much money, but not only did they not make money, but they also lost 20%. Xia Tian's knife was indeed a bit fierce.
"Investment is risky. In this situation, some people are willing to take over the 20% discount, and they are already cheap. Who told them to listen to the wind and rain? I would rather believe the rumors or not, why should I give in to them?" Xia Tian said again, "Besides, if they can't bear to leave, they can wait for a while. Tell them that there is less than a year, I promise to give them the principal and interest."
Those people were so abominable, and they were considered cheaper to cut them down on two of their money.
"Okay then." Zhou Liang Shuyi nodded when she heard him say this.
Now Tianxia Fund is said to be a turbulent, a huge loss, and an illegal one. To be honest, if this is the case, it is already very kind to be willing to take over.
...
"By the way, what's the situation in the company? Everyone's mood is still stable, right?" Xia Tian asked Zhou Liangshuyi again.
"Everyone's emotions are relatively stable, and they all believe you were wronged." Zhou Liang Shuyi said affirmatively.
"That's good, tell everyone, don't panic. Even if there is a problem with Tianxia Fund, it has nothing to do with Tianxia Group. Everyone's job is still solid. Let everyone do their duties well, don't follow the crowd, worry about things, and wait for me to come back." Xia Tian nodded and said.
"Okay." Zhou Liang Shuyi nodded.
"Then let it be, Mr. Zhou, call me in time if you have something to do." Xia Tian said again, "In addition, if you post a message to the outside world, I will come to the United States to shoot a new film."
"Hmm?!" Zhou Liang Shuyi was stunned, "Mr. Xia, do you really want to publish your traces?"
"Of course. Do you think I am really a bandit and flee in a panic? I'm just a strategic shift." Xia Tian curled his lips, "The reason why people are panicking now is because they don't know where I'm going, and they think I'm really running away for fear of sin. So I must stand up openly and live a high profile, the better."
