1929 I am a chaebol in the United States
Chapter 142 Parachute
Adams said that he also knew the management talents he recruited. Lu Chen couldn't help but wonder, aren't those management talents he knows already senior executives of large companies! There are still unemployed people at home. If there were, he would have recruited him long ago. How could Adams take advantage of him?
Lu Chen really couldn't figure out who it was. He shook his head at Adams and said:
"I don't know when I met someone like this. Why don't you give me a hint?"
Adams reminded over the phone: "We both saved his life."
Hearing Adams' words, Lu Chen became even more confused. He had saved someone's life before. Lu Chen racked his brains to recall his experience with Adams, but still couldn't remember. He could only say helplessly:
"Just tell me who he is. I really can't remember."
Adams laughed and said, "Lu Chen, I knew you wouldn't remember. This brother is called Arthur. He was the one you saved on the way to the bank to settle the account when you were shorting the stock."
After hearing Adams' explanation, Lu Chen finally remembered who this person was. He said:
"The other person wasn't about to jump off the building. He was just sitting on the rooftop drinking because of a breakup. We just dragged him down without any reason."
Adams said quickly: "Yes, yes, it's him."
Lu Chen didn't expect Adams to be so lucky. He actually met this guy again, and this guy is actually a talent. Adams is so lucky. He can even encounter such a thing. Lu Chen felt a little unhappy. He was a serious time traveler. A perfect protagonist. Why didn't he meet such a person?
Lu Chen said unhappily, "Did you call just to talk about this? If you don't have anything else to say, I'm going to hang up."
"No, no, no, I'm calling about something important this time."
"If you have something to say, just say it, rather than saying half of it and leaving it alone."
Lu Chen said unhappily.
"It's like this. I received a message that there is a rich iron mine for sale in Brazil. I would like to ask you to come with me."
Someone is actually selling rich iron ore. This person must be stupid. In this period of time, everyone is so short of minerals. If you keep this rich iron ore, you can make money even if you don't do anything when World War II starts. Lu Chen asked with some doubt:
"Where did you hear this news? Who is so stupid as to sell rich iron ore? Did you receive false news?"
Adams said confidently: "I can guarantee that this news is true. The mine owner is in urgent need of money. He hopes to sell the mine to raise funds."
Lu Chen thought about it and still had some doubts. If he needed money, he could borrow from the bank. Morgan was a shareholder of UC Steel Group. He would be happy for someone to mortgage his iron ore. Lu Chen said:
"I think your news is a little bit fake. How could he be short of money when he has a rich iron ore? He can get a large loan from any bank. Does he need to sell it? The payment is too slow."
Adams said: "I asked someone to confirm that the mine owner did take out a loan for the mine, but the money given by the bank could not meet his needs, so he sold it."
Lu Chen said, "Forget it. Since the bank can't give him the price he wants, we certainly can't give him the price he wants."
"How is that possible? The loan amount given by the bank is always lower than the market price. What if he wants to sell it at the market price?"
Lu Chen said, "Brother, you should be more sober. The two of us have only a little over 100 million in total. How big a mine can we buy? If the bank is unwilling to give a price, it is either that the value of the mine is really not high, or it is a large mine. If the price is not high, it is useless for us to buy it. If it is a large mine, do you think we can buy a large mine with this little money?"
Adams thought for a while and said, "What if this is a medium-sized mine? We can buy it."
Lu Chen didn't want to spend the money on this. He needed to keep the money for other things. If he used it all to buy the mine, if his company encountered any difficulties in the future, he would not be able to find a way to raise money. He thought for a while and said, "Brother, I'd better not get involved in this. You should go by yourself."
Adams said anxiously, "How much money do I have? If you don't go, I definitely can't get it all by myself. Just help me out for the sake of our friendship over the years."
Lu Chen thought about it and realized that he was in great need of money. First of all, the three large textile factories were very strong. If he wanted to compete with them, he would definitely not be able to defeat them without funds. Lu Chen thought about it and rejected Adams' request for help. He said:
"Brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's that I really need money and I really don't have any spare money to help you."
After hearing what Lu Chen said, Adams said with some disappointment: "Well, since you really need money, I won't force you."
After talking to Adams, Lu Chen did not stay at home. The employees of Hongshui Company had already set off for the Philippines. He planned to go there as well and talk to the military leaders from China about his plan to see if they were interested in his proposal. If they were not interested, Lu Chen would find someone else to go to Riyadh.
After Lu Chen took Ike out of the house, they drove to the pier. After buying tickets to the Philippines at the pier, Lu Chen and Ike boarded the ship to the Philippines.
After sailing on the sea for more than ten days, on July 15th, Lu Chen finally arrived in the Philippines.
Lu Chen did not inform anyone when he came to the Philippines this time. He planned to go to his factory and the special forces training privately to see if these people were still doing their job as diligently as before without his supervision.
He left the dock and looked around, but found that there were no cars here. He had no choice but to find a carriage and go to the Governor's Mansion.
When they arrived at the Governor's Mansion, Lu Chen took out his military ID. After seeing Lu Chen's military ID, the people at the Governor's Mansion immediately contacted Green. Green was very happy to know that Lu Chen had arrived in the Philippines, and immediately sent a car to pick him up.
Lu Chen arrived at the headquarters in the afternoon. When Green saw Lu Chen, he immediately came up to him enthusiastically.
"Lu Chen, aren't you very busy? How do you have time to come to the army?"
Lu Chen said, "Didn't I receive your message saying that the Chinese troops have arrived for training? Of course I have to come and take a look. By the way, I remember that the military academy should be open now. Have you sent my people to the academy?"
Green patted Lu Chen on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I have arranged for them to study at the military academy, and they are all doing very well. Instructor Qin Jian has been hired by Mike as a special instructor."
Lu Chen looked at Green in surprise. Qin Jian actually became a teacher. He didn't know what Mike saw in him. He actually asked Qin Jian to be a teacher.
Lu Chen asked again: "What majors did they study?"
Green said, "Infantry, what else can they study?"
Lu Chen couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He had wanted some of Qin Jian and his friends to learn aviation, fly planes, etc. But in the end, they all ended up in the infantry department.
Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "Green, do you have any idea to let them learn how to fly planes, tanks, and ships?"
Green looked at Lu Chen strangely. He said with some confusion:
"Why should they learn these? They are just infantrymen. They just need to do their infantry profession well."
Lu Chen was thinking about what excuse he could use to convince Green. After thinking for a while, he decided to use the case of the special forces company as an example. He organized his words and said:
"Mr. Green, we put so much effort into training the special forces company. We want them to exert their extraordinary combat effectiveness. If we only treat them as infantry, their abilities will be wasted."
Green said: "Then what kind of role do you think they can play."
Lu Chen said: "I can do anything, from heaven to earth."
"You're kidding me, that's impossible. They're not God."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Nothing is impossible. If you want to make them more versatile, it's very simple for them to have the ability to go up to the sky and into the earth."
"Then tell me how they go to heaven and earth."
Lu Chen said: "To go up to the sky, they just need to know how to fly a plane and fight in it. Then I also designed a new equipment that allows them to jump from the air, so that they can appear in places where the enemy least expects them to appear."
"What equipment?" Green asked curiously.
