Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

Meng Chuan's expected price was actually 100 billion.

But the Chinese have always been adept at negotiation—asking for the moon, then settling for less.

Meng Chuan couldn't reveal his hand from the start; he wanted to save as much as possible.

After all, just because money comes easily doesn't mean you won't feel bad about spending it.

However, Meng Chuan's asking price of 80 billion was clearly unacceptable to Ollie.

The price was too low; Ollie couldn't even bring himself to negotiate.

"Meng Chuan, 100 billion, there's still room for negotiation on this price. Just give me some face, and when your country's stock market crashes, I'll definitely give you my full support."

Ollie spoke helplessly, his tone carrying a hint of compromise.

Meng Chuan was satisfied, but his tone remained hesitant:

"Alright, it's you, Mr. Ollie. I would never agree to anyone else. However, if you want me to give you 100 billion, you have to agree to two requests."

"You said that as long as I can help, I will definitely not refuse."

Ollie finally smiled.

He was genuinely afraid that Meng Chuan, being such a tightwad, wouldn't spend a penny, which would mean he'd have to pay out of his own pocket.

After all, Meng Chuan's actions in the stock market this time not only failed to bring him any benefits, but also caused him a lot of trouble.

"First, I can buy Company 02, but you have to hold an honorary director position in Company 02 until I can get Company 02 back on the stock market."

Meng Chuan said bluntly.

This was a request that Meng Chuan had thought of long ago.

This time he was almost tricked by the Oumeng gang, and he deeply felt the helplessness of being powerless.

Even if he buys 02 Company, and even if Fifth Master sends people to help him manage it, he will still be penniless in England.

He can be manipulated at will by those above, and there's nothing they can do about it.

But Ollie is different.

He was the Warburg family's agent in Britain, holding a distinguished position and status.

As long as he's around, any department that wants to touch Company 02 will have to think twice.

Therefore, Ollie must give 02 a nominal position.

It can at least serve as a deterrent and avoid some unnecessary trouble.

"This……"

Ollie was somewhat troubled.

He didn't hold any of the many companies under his family's control.

Now, to hold a nominal position in a company like 02 is somewhat beneath one's dignity.

After all, any one of his family's companies could easily outperform Company 02 by a wide margin.

Huabao Bank, in particular, is better than ten companies with the number 02.

“Mr. Ollie, you should know better than me what my purpose is in doing this. I’ve spent so much real money, and if I don’t feel secure at all, I’ll find it hard to willingly part with my money.”

Meng Chuan spoke the truth.

"You want 02 to be delisted, restructured, and then relisted, right? Fine, I'll exit when you relist."

Ollie immediately understood Meng Chuan's intention.

This tactic is indeed a common trick used by many listed companies.

Meng Chuan's concern about the relisting being hindered is understandable.

But he cannot hold this nominal position indefinitely.

"My second request is that I send someone over to take over, and everything in the company will be transferred to her name. But she is stateless. I need you to help me arrange a legal status for her in the Barman Islands."

Meng Chuan continued.

This was to resolve the issue of Yingdie's identity.

Meng Chuan believed that with Ollie's influence, it wouldn't be difficult to give Yingdie an identity in the Baman Islands.

At that time, both the shell company in the Baman Islands and Company 02 will be registered under the name of Yingdie.

Yingdie then returns to China to invest as an international friend, easily obtaining a domestic green card, which makes everything perfectly reasonable.

"That's easy, leave it to me."

Ollie agreed without even thinking about it.

This kind of thing is no big deal to him.

As long as you have money, you'll be welcomed in any country you choose to settle down.

Even without his help, immigration officials would proactively come to your door to assist with the process.

"That's good. Once my people arrive, she will transfer the 100 billion to you."

After Meng Chuan finished speaking, he hung up the phone immediately.

Meng Chuan's wish has finally been fulfilled.

After hanging up the phone, Yingdie looked at Meng Chuan gratefully, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes:

"If you register Company 02 under my name, aren't you afraid of me...?"

Meng Chuan spent 2000 billion yuan to acquire 02 Company, which is equivalent to more than 200 billion yuan.

With such a large sum of assets, Meng Chuan directly registered it under her name. If she had any malicious intentions, Meng Chuan would be powerless to stop her.

"Would you betray me?"

Meng Chuan looked directly into Ying Die's eyes and asked in a calm and solemn tone.

"In my world, there is only loyalty, not betrayal. As long as the ring is still in your hand, I will remain loyal to you."

Yingdie glanced at the thumb ring on Meng Chuan's thumb and said firmly.

Meng Chuan was taken aback; it was another ring.

He looked down at the ring on his hand and couldn't help but ask again:

"Shadow Butterfly, what's so special about this ring on my hand?"

"It represents an identity, and there are no fewer than a million people in the world who are loyal to this ring."

Yingdie's words were startling.

"what?"

Meng Chuan was so shocked his jaw almost dropped.

The energy behind this ring is so enormous.

Why would Fifth Master entrust it to me?

What exactly is Fifth Master's intention?

"Yingdie, tell me about Fifth Master, who exactly is he?"

Meng Chuan asked seriously.

Meng Chuan is now very eager to know Fifth Master's identity.

"I can't say."

Yingdie shook her head with a troubled expression.

"Shadow Butterfly, you just said that you are only loyal to this ring. May I command you in the name of this ring?"

Meng Chuan spoke in a serious tone.

Although it was an order, Meng Chuan spoke in a consultative tone.

Yingdie remained silent for a moment before speaking:

"There was once a killer organization in Siberia that ranked second in the world—the Northern Fox."

"It recruits orphans from all over the world, from various countries, and uses cruel methods to train these orphans into assassins."

"Fifth Master destroyed the Northern Fox Organization and rescued tens of thousands of orphans. I was one of them."

She spoke in the most calm tone about her tragic past.

“I am loyal to the ring in your hand, and I am also loyal to Fifth Master. I can tell you Fifth Master’s identity, but I need to atone with my death.”

Yingdie said solemnly.

"Stop talking, I don't want to hear it anymore."

Meng Chuan quickly covered Ying Die's mouth.

He knew that Yingdie was a person who absolutely kept her word.

Having spent so much time together, Meng Chuan had come to understand Ying Die's personality.

She was taciturn, unambitious, and had a simple mind.

However, they possess exceptional skill and obedience.

Meng Chuan couldn't sacrifice Ying Die for his own curiosity.

As for Fifth Master's identity, we'll uncover that later!

However, Meng Chuan's opinion of Fifth Master changed in one aspect.

Meng Chuan always believed that it was Fifth Master who cruelly trained Ying Die.

Now it seems that although Fifth Master may not be a good person, he is at least not the kind of bad person Meng Chuan had imagined.

This is enough.

"Go see Ollie tomorrow!"

Meng Chuan pulled himself out of his thoughts.

Then, with a serious expression, he added:

"Furthermore, I am now issuing you an order in the name of the ring: you are not allowed to do anything that could threaten your life from now on."
