The penniless son of the penniless ...

Chapter 20 Raising Funds
Zhang Junfeng, who was in the hotel, might never have thought that his "future mother-in-law" would give him a "god assist" and push Li Fuzhen, the chaebol's daughter, to his side.

What he is looking forward to more now is whether he can earn more chips before the financial crisis comes next year. After all, strictly speaking, the next thing to do is the most important and exciting "big thing" since his rebirth!
He will use his personal power to stir up the situation, detonate those large companies that are in danger in advance, and take advantage of the situation. But whether he will succeed is still unknown. After all, according to the current exchange rate between the US dollar and the Korean won, the market value of these large companies he wants to "hunt" is as high as hundreds of billions or even nearly one trillion won (according to the exchange rate of 800:1 at the time, the market value of Hanbao Steel is about 80 billion US dollars, and the market value of other listed companies ranked lower will be less).

If one wants to leverage such a behemoth, the funds required will not be a small amount. If he wants to borrow shares from those institutions (mainly banks), he must at least prove his financial strength and reach the scale of hundreds of millions of US dollars.

And with his current financial strength, it is obviously not easy to raise so much money in a short time!

"It would be great if Goldman Sachs in the United States could be more flexible!" Zhang Junfeng couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He had been in this world for too short a time, and his previous life was a complete prodigal son who was busy spending money on wine, women and women. He didn't make good use of the resources at hand and the connections with the top universities in the United States. This made it difficult for him, the one who took over later, to get started!
……

After thinking for a long time, Zhang Junfeng decided to contact Goldman Sachs, a securities company with which he had business dealings. After all, apart from this relationship, he could not think of any other way to raise money.

As for the old man in his family, he had already been robbed once by him. If he wanted to rob him a second time in a short period of time, the old man would probably pick up his crutches and fight him to the death!

In order to ensure that he could hold on until midnight to make an overseas call, Zhang Junfeng generously prepared himself a large cup of coffee, intending to stay up all night and hold on until he got to work at the securities company in America.

……

As the time approached 1 a.m., Zhang Junfeng, with dark circles under his eyes, dialed the phone number of a senior executive of Goldman Sachs Securities that he had previously recorded.

America, Goldman Sachs, located on Wall Street.

As one of the top financial institutions in the United States, Leon John exceeded his performance targets by winning over many wealthy people over the years. As a result, he was successfully rewarded by the company and promoted to the second-in-command of the securities company.

What excites him most is that in recent months a young Asian man who has just joined the group has been quite generous and has invested nearly 100 million US dollars in their securities company to buy stocks of those high-tech companies.

This level of "arrogance" is not inferior to those middle-aged and elderly wealthy people with strength, and even more courageous, which makes those who still want to "improve" very happy. After all, I know so many wealthy people, so this performance rush will be too smooth!
But today, just as he arrived at the office and made himself some fragrant coffee, the office phone next to him rang.

"Is this Leon? I'm Zhang Junfeng, I need your help with something! I have an investment recently and I need a lot of money. All the money in my account has been invested in the stock market, I hope the securities company can help me raise funds..." Zhang Junfeng saw that the call was successfully connected, and he directly explained his intentions. Originally, Leon didn't think there was anything wrong with Zhang Junfeng's "small request", but when he heard that the other party needed to borrow 3 million US dollars, he hesitated for a moment even though he had seen many big scenes!
After all, the other party's shortfall was not a few million dollars, but a full 300 million dollars! He didn't have the authority to easily agree to such an astonishing amount!

"...Mr. Zhang, I can't make the decision on this request. But I can apply for you from the headquarters, and it will take about a week to give you a reply!" Leon John thought for a moment and finally decided to help. After all, such a young "rich man" is rare. If the other party needs so much money for investment, the scale of this project will definitely not be small.

If he succeeds, his assets will increase significantly, and he can also gain a favor from the other party, which is a good thing for him. As for whether the other party will be unable to repay?

Anyway, the other party's investment in their securities company plus the profit has reached more than 100 million US dollars. Even if there is a real loss, I think it can still offset the loss~!

Hearing that the other party was willing to help, Zhang Junfeng nodded with satisfaction. Although it took a little time, it was considered good overall!
Anyway, as long as the funds are in place, the next thing, even if he is no longer around, can be entrusted to Wu Mingxi, the new professional lawyer, to split the shares from the institution!
……

After the call ended, Zhang Junfeng relaxed when he saw that the matter he was concerned about had been resolved. As he felt sleepy, he quickly washed up and fell asleep after staying up most of the night.

It was not until around 9 o'clock the next morning that Zhang Junfeng, who was still sleeping, was awakened by a series of knocks on the door. He got up reluctantly and walked to the door. As soon as he opened the door, he was greeted by Li Fuzhen who was approaching and was about to knock on the door again.

Zhang Junfeng, who was still a little sleepy, saw that the person who bumped into him was Li Fuzhen, and immediately said with a smile, "It seems that someone missed me. He came to knock on the door so early in the morning and threw himself into my arms. Isn't this a bit too impatient?"

"...You guy! Can't you be serious?!" Li Fuzhen was a little annoyed by Zhang Junfeng's teasing. She had something important to discuss with him, not to flirt with him!
Li Fuzhen, who was angry, pushed Zhang Junfeng away with some dissatisfaction, then walked into the room by herself, and sat down calmly on the sofa. Looking at Zhang Junfeng who had just closed the door and had no time to speak, she was the first to speak, "I came here today because I have something to inform you!"

"...My mother told me yesterday that we should get engaged as soon as possible, and my father agreed!" Li Fuzhen said while staring at Zhang Junfeng to observe his reaction.

Zhang Junfeng didn't seem surprised by Li Fuzhen's mention of engagement, and replied with a smile, "Engagement? No problem, I'll do whatever our Miss Li needs me to do!"
