Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

They were having a good talk when suddenly Old Huang and Meng Chuan started glaring at each other.

This truly baffled Dean Zuo Silan.

Old Huang had prepared a whole host of threatening words for Meng Chuan.

But Meng Chuan's words, "Withdraw your investment immediately," left him speechless with anger.

"What are you two standing there for? Get out of here, I want to have a serious talk with this kid."

Old Huang was so embarrassed by Meng Chuan's retort that he could only vent his anger on Dean Zuo Silan and Ying Die.

"You guys chat, we're leaving."

Dean Zuo Silan had long wanted to leave.

If she had known that things would start in such a disastrous way, she shouldn't have come in in the first place.

Only Yingdie seemed not to hear, still standing beside Meng Chuan.

"Yingdie, you should go out first too."

Meng Chuan said to Ying Die.

Yingdie then turned and went outside.

"Kid, do you think I want your shares? You have to accept regulation; that's a requirement for all big companies."

After Dean Zuo Silan and Yingdie left, Old Huang said with a dark face:

"Firstly, it is to safeguard the public interest and maintain market order."

"Secondly, we need to regulate the entire industry to prevent anything from harming national interests."

Old Huang paused, then continued in a stern tone:

"Therefore, you have to give me that one percent of shares, whether you want to or not. And you also have to give me a veto right."

The facts stated by Elder Huang indicate that from this moment forward, he represents the government in his conversation with Meng Chuan.

In particular, the veto power is something that officials can choose not to exercise.

But this right must be available.

"I really can't give away that one percent of the shares."

However, Meng Chuan shook his head, his tone very firm.

"You damn bastard, why don't you understand what I mean? I mean..."

Old Huang immediately became anxious.

He had assumed that Meng Chuan was a smart man and would be able to understand him.

But Meng Chuan was like a miser, completely unyielding.

"I know what you're going to say, but I really can't give it to you."

Meng Chuan interrupted Elder Huang and asked in return:

"Do you know why the Li family couldn't acquire the British company 02, but I did?"

"It's not about anti-monopoly..."

"You believe it?"

Meng Chuan countered with a question.

Old Huang paused for a moment, then shook his head:

"Those British devils are still determined to destroy us. They are afraid that our country will gain control of their secrets. Ultimately, it is because of geopolitical reasons."

Mr. Huang spoke the truth.

In fact, anyone with a certain level of political sensitivity can see Britain's true intentions.

Anti-monopoly, frankly speaking, is just a way to fool idiots.

"So what do you think those British devils would do if a 'state-owned capital' suddenly appeared in the shareholder list of Dream Shadow Capital?"

Meng Chuan asked.

Meng Chuan was not unaware of what Huang Lao meant.

However, the situation of Dream Shadow Capital is rather special.

Let alone state-owned capital investment, even investment by Chinese citizens is not allowed.

Why did Meng Chuan want Ying Die to become a citizen of the Baman Islands?

Besides better resolving the issue of Shadow Butterfly's identity.

The most important thing is to ensure that Dream Shadow Capital remains unscathed.

Otherwise, the UK and even the entire EU could launch various investigations and reviews of Dream Capital.

Even forcing Dream Shadow Capital to hand over 02 Company would be the least of their worries.

In severe cases, the entire Dream Shadow Capital will be confiscated.

After all, although 02 Company has changed its name to Mengying Telecom, what remains unchanged is that it covers most of the communications of the Oumeng.

"Phew! That is a problem."

Old Huang gasped, immediately understanding Meng Chuan's meaning.

If we analyze it from this perspective, Dream Shadow Capital really shouldn't offer the entire equity.

Otherwise, those British devils would definitely not sit still.

It's even possible that Meng Chuan could be accused of espionage.

However, this land is not a capitalist society.

This unregulated capital is not allowed!

Otherwise, if capital expands unchecked and shakes the foundation of the nation, there will be serious problems!

No one can bear this responsibility.

"I need to go back and discuss this matter with my superiors."

Old Huang was unsure what to do for a while, because it involved a huge issue.

"You can conduct your research as you see fit. If it doesn't work out, I'll have to leave."

Meng Chuan shrugged and said.

Meng Chuan loves his country, but he cannot disregard his own safety.

If all else fails, Meng Chuan will have no choice but to hand over what he can and protect himself.

"Don't worry, the country will not let you down."

Old Huang sensed the threat in Meng Chuan's words and rolled his eyes at him.

"Hehe, I knew you guys wouldn't let the heroes bleed and shed tears."

Meng Chuan smiled.

Then, changing the subject, he asked:

"Mr. Huang, give me a heads-up, about that mysterious fund that suddenly appeared in the financial sector this morning..."

Meng Chuan was genuinely curious.

It was definitely too dangerous in the morning.

This also shows that Meng Chuan was unprepared.

It's not about money.

More than twenty traders are still a bit too few.

We almost couldn't keep up with the workload.

If it weren't for that mysterious fund's strong entry at the end, working in concert with Meng Chuan from the inside, it would have been a different story.

I'm afraid the stock market has already crashed by now.

"Stop asking about these irrelevant things and just focus on your own business."

Old Huang said irritably.

In fact, the intervention of national teams to rescue the market is a tacitly accepted practice in many countries.

Many countries have done similar things.

However, it cannot be too blatant.

The stock market is a market-driven activity, and the market needs to self-regulate.

Excessive intervention can lead to market distortions.

This could lead to excessive dependence among ordinary investors, or deter foreign capital from entering the domestic market.

Unless it's truly a matter of life and death.

"But I need to know whether they're friend or foe, right? I can't be responsible if I accidentally hurt someone."

Meng Chuan shrugged.

"You? Accidentally hurt someone? Don't you know your own limitations?"

Old Huang said disdainfully.

Mr. Huang checked, and Dream Shadow Capital's assets are only about 50 billion pounds.

The available funds are at most 30 billion pounds, which is more than 300 billion RMB.

Old Huang admires Meng Chuan for giving his all today.

However, he couldn't praise Meng Chuan, otherwise that brat would get incredibly arrogant.

"hey-hey……"

Meng Chuan smiled but did not explain.

But Meng Chuan could tell that Old Huang was underestimating him.

Let them underestimate us!

Meng Chuan hadn't intended to be too high-profile.

"What are your plans next?"

Old Huang suddenly asked solemnly.

"What do you want me to do?"

Meng Chuan asked in return with sincerity.

This is completely different from his previous attitude of slamming the table and challenging Mr. Huang.

Old Huang nodded in satisfaction. This kid has a good balance between work and rest; he's a promising talent.

"There are some things that the higher-ups can't do themselves. Do you dare to be the bad guy?"

"Old Huang asked."

"Using me as a tool?"

Meng Chuan understood immediately.

"How can you talk like that? How can you say it's like being used as a weapon? This is for the country and the people."

Old Huang, with a cold face, appealed to his emotions and reasoned with him.

"A sword for the country and its people! Isn't this still a sword?"

Meng Chuan said bluntly.

Mr. Huang: “…”

"Just tell me directly whether you squat to pee or stand to pee, that's all."

Old Huang said irritably.

"How to provoke generals?"

Meng Chuan looked at Old Huang with a mocking expression. Who could possibly be fooled by such a petty scheme?

"you……"

Just as Elder Huang was about to erupt, Meng Chuan quickly spoke first:

“I can be this knife, but I need a whetstone.”
