Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

"Meng Chuan, you're not that old, but you're putting on quite a show."

In the villa's hall, seeing Meng Chuan arrive late, Robert said with a gloomy expression.

He was, after all, the patriarch of the Shengkesi family.

In the United States, he could meet with members of Congress or even the president of the country.

No one dared to make him wait that long.

After all, capitalists and politicians in the United States have long been inextricably linked.

To put it bluntly, these capitalists are, to a certain extent, the masters of the country.

Many of the economic lifelines of the United States are firmly in the hands of these capitalists.

But once he got here, he actually had to force his way in just to see Meng Chuan.

The two sides almost came to blows before Meng Chuan agreed to meet them.

After they were brought in, Meng Chuan actually made them sit there and wait for more than half an hour.

This made Robert feel a level of contempt he had never experienced before.

“Mr. Robert, are you mistaken? You are the one who begged to see me, not the other way around. If you are not satisfied, the door is right there, you can leave.”

Meng Chuan plopped down in the main seat and said without any mercy.

"you……"

A man with a red cane standing next to Robert suddenly became angry.

He is none other than Wolf Fang, the leader of the Blood Gang.

Given Wolf Fang's status, position, and reputation, few dare to act recklessly in front of him, not only in the United States but also internationally.

Unfortunately, Langya's Chinese proficiency is quite limited.

He could barely understand what Meng Chuan meant.

He stood up and stammered for a long time, but couldn't find a Chinese word to express his emotions.

"If you can't speak properly, then shut up. You lackey, what right do you have to speak?"

Meng Chuan stared coldly at Wolf Fang.

Unfortunately, Wolf Fang couldn't understand Meng Chuan's words at all.

Otherwise, given his temper, he would definitely explode if Meng Chuan called him a "lackey."

However, even if he couldn't hear it, he probably knew that Meng Chuan's words were definitely unfriendly.

Just as Wolf Fang was about to get angry, Robert quickly stopped him.

Before any negotiations even began, Robert didn't want to antagonize Meng Chuan.

“Meng Chuan, we are both people of status and position. I came to you seeking cooperation. There’s no need for us to make things so tense.”

Robert said.

As someone from the upper class, he inevitably engaged in some illicit activities in secret.

However, he still outwardly maintained a gentlemanly demeanor.

"Wow! You've even learned to use fancy words now!"

Meng Chuan's disdain was tinged with a hint of surprise.

“You don’t need to doubt our Chinese proficiency. Truly established upper-class families receive elite education from a young age. I am fluent in more than a dozen languages.”

Robert said matter-of-factly:

“Only a self-made tycoon like Elon Ma would not understand Chinese.”

Meng Chuan nodded to himself. Indeed, it seemed that many of the people from powerful families he had met were fluent in Chinese.

Whether it's Alice or David, they're both from wealthy families.

Without exception.

Elon Ma indeed doesn't speak Chinese.

However, Elon Ma has recently gained considerable fame in the United States and even internationally.

Both Tesla and the rocket company began to shine after receiving investment from Meng Chuan.

Especially after the successful rocket launch, Elon Ma's rocket company is now highly sought after by investors.

This caused the rocket company's stock price to surge.

Elon Ma quickly rose to become one of the most dazzling new stars in the financial world.

However, in the eyes of powerful clans like Sheng Kesi...

There was still some disdain for Elon Ma.

"You don't need to show off these things to me, and put away your pathetic sense of superiority."

Meng Chuan bluntly stated:

"Because compared to the five thousand years of history and culture of our great China, you are nothing more than savages who have just put on clothes."

"you……"

Robert was furious again.

He really wanted to maintain a gentlemanly demeanor in front of Meng Chuan.

Whether he should say it or not, he did indeed feel a sense of superiority in front of Meng Chuan.

In his view, Meng Chuan, like Elon Ma, was at most a nouveau riche.

As long as he is willing to offer Meng Chuan some compensation, it is unlikely that Meng Chuan will refuse his cooperation.

After all, by choosing to cooperate with him, Meng Chuan could also gain the friendship of the Sheng Kesi family.

He couldn't think of a reason why Meng Chuan could refuse.

But he never expected that Meng Chuan would be so difficult to talk to.

"What? You can't handle this? Looks like your elite education isn't all that great! You still need to practice your self-control."

Meng Chuan said with a cold smile.

"Meng Chuan, I don't know where your hostility towards me comes from."

Robert, barely suppressing his anger, said:

"But I have come here today with the sincere intention of cooperating. Why don't you listen to me explain the details of our cooperation?"

“If your so-called cooperation means you want me to give up the Liu Group, I advise you to keep your mouth shut.”

Meng Chuan said coldly.

Thomson had already told Shadow Butterfly about Robert's intentions.

Yingdie has already told Meng Chuan.

This is why Meng Chuan harbored hostility towards Robert from the very beginning.

However, Meng Chuan still wanted to meet Robert so that he could formulate his next plan.

"I won't let you suffer if you give up the Liu Group."

Robert said:

"As far as I know, the Liu Group's current market value is only around 6000 billion."

“I can personally compensate you with 5000 billion; you’ve already made a huge profit.”

Robert was quite sincere.

At the very least, he believed that he was quite sincere.

First of all, the Liu Group's market value only recently exceeded 100 billion.

After merging with Shang'an Real Estate, its stock price began to soar.

Its current market value is 6000 billion, but that's just a number.

He is willing to compensate Meng Chuan with 5000 billion yuan in cash, which would be a huge profit for Meng Chuan.

"Don't be so quick to refuse, let me finish."

Seeing Meng Chuan's dark face as he was about to speak, Robert preemptively said:

"You should know better than I do about the current state of the Chinese stock market."

"If you choose to withdraw now, you'll immediately have 5000 billion in your pocket; that's called securing your gains."

"If you continue to run the Liu Group, it could collapse at any time under the current circumstances, and you will have nothing left."

Robert paused, then continued with an air of arrogance:

“You may not know much about the Shengkes family, but you should know the strength of Goldman Sachs.”

“Goldman Sachs has assets of over ten trillion US dollars. If you can gain the friendship of Goldman Sachs, it will be far more worthwhile than struggling to run a real estate company that is destined to be a sunset industry.”

After saying that, Robert looked at Meng Chuan with arrogance.

Robert believed that anyone with a brain would know how to choose, as long as they were smart.

His original plan was to compensate Meng Chuan with 4000 billion, which was only a little over 570 billion US dollars.

However, seeing that Meng Chuan was difficult to talk to, he added another 1000 billion in order to achieve his goal.

Therefore, it would be impossible for Meng Chuan to refuse.

"Finished?"

Meng Chuan asked coldly.

"That's it."

"Then get out! Shadow Butterfly, show them out!"
