Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

When faced with Meng Chuan in his inner demon state, Qiao's Adam's apple bobbed twice.

Because Meng Chuan exuded a suffocatingly cold aura.

This made Joe feel like he wasn't facing a single person.

He is a cold-blooded and ruthless beast.

The back beneath the suit jacket was unconsciously soaked with cold sweat.

The chilling aura surrounding Meng Chuan felt so tangible that it made it hard for him to breathe.

The thought that I had just been preparing to practice Tai Chi completely vanished.

He swallowed hard, then pulled a stack of documents from his briefcase:

“I know you’ve been acquiring Goldman Sachs shares these past two days. This is a letter of intent from BlackRock to transfer 5% of Goldman Sachs’ original shares. I can give up that 5%.”

Yingdie and Robert were in the United States carrying out the equity transfer procedures in a grand manner.

This kind of thing certainly couldn't be kept secret from the Rothschild family's eyes and ears.

Although Rothschild's immediate family members rarely take the initiative to get involved in business matters anymore.

However, this does not mean that they are out of touch with the world.

On the contrary, they receive news of any major business activities immediately.

Even a 5% stake in Goldman Sachs would be worth $5000 billion.

This compensation is quite substantial.

It's worth noting that some of the smaller countries in the world may not even have a GDP of $5000 billion a year.

Qiao initially wanted to negotiate with Meng Chuan, offering to concede 2% or 3%.

However, faced with Meng Chuan's ruthless approach, he simply handed over all of Goldman Sachs' shares in one go.

Do you think that 5% stake in Goldman Sachs is important to me?

Meng Chuan stared into Qiao's eyes and asked in return.

This question left Joe speechless.

A 5% stake is worth $5000 billion. Isn't that important?

"Joe, don't think that only people from Rothschild's can do business. Don't try to fool me!"

Meng Chuan suddenly roared:

"I can dissolve the company in a heartbeat with your 5% stake. I can just change the company name and your stake will be worthless."

Joe's expression visibly froze.

This is because it is a fact, and it is also the reason why the Rothschild family was willing to offer Goldman Sachs shares after discussions.

He used to be the third largest shareholder of Goldman Sachs, and that 5% stake was very valuable.

But now all of Goldman Sachs' shares are in Meng Chuan's hands.

His 5% became a liability.

Even if Meng Chuan forcibly takes it back, there's nothing they can do.

Since that's the case, we might as well do a favor and give it to Meng Chuan, which will also appease the Green Gang's anger.

“I admit that if you were to relist through a shell company, my 5% stake would definitely become worthless. However, the consequences of a shell company listing would at least result in a direct loss of orders worth no less than 2000 billion.”

"Moreover, it will also lose the credit system that Goldman Sachs has built up over many years. This indirect loss will be no less than 5000 billion."

Qiao steadied himself and said:

"I think Young Master Meng Chuan is a smart man and shouldn't think I'm exaggerating."

"So what? Do you think I, Meng Chuan, am short of money?"

However, Meng Chuan coldly retorted:

"Don't judge me by your Rothschild family's value system."

"You should know how much wealth I currently possess. Money is just a string of numbers to me; I have no interest in money."

Meng Chuan subconsciously quoted Ma Yun's famous saying.

To be honest, coming from Meng Chuan, these words are quite credible.

At least Joe took it seriously.

After learning that Meng Chuan was the young master of the Green Gang, they really did investigate him thoroughly.

Naturally, they also learned that Meng Chuan alone was comparable to some top-tier wealthy families.

It's important to understand that top-tier wealthy families like the Rothschilds seem to have a lot of wealth.

However, with such a large pie, the amount allocated to each core member is not much.

But Meng Chuan was all alone, and all the wealth belonged to him.

In comparison, even Qiao, the heir, doesn't possess as much wealth as Meng Chuan.

This put Qiao in a difficult position for a moment.

If money couldn't sway Meng Chuan, what else could appease him?

"How about this? I'll give you 5%, no! 10% of Goldman Sachs' shares."

Meng Chuan's tone grew increasingly sinister:

“I will send someone to assassinate your family again, just once more.”

"If you can protect your family, then we can call it even."

"If you can't protect him, your death will be in vain. What do you say?"

Meng Chuan's suggestion left Qiao completely bewildered.

Is this how negotiations are conducted?

However, for some reason, Meng Chuan's ridiculous suggestion sounded perfectly reasonable no matter how you looked at it.

"No, Young Master Meng Chuan, you should know that we cannot accept your proposal."

Joe quickly denied it.

"If I give you 10%, you all can't accept it, so why do you think I'll accept 5%?"

Meng Chuan countered with a question.

This left Qiao speechless.

Joe himself didn't even realize it.

From the very beginning of the negotiations, Meng Chuan seized the initiative and took control.

Faced with Meng Chuan's assertive attitude, he was completely led by the nose by Meng Chuan.

"Young Master Meng Chuan, how do you suggest we make amends?"

Joe was at a loss.

He has no leverage left and can only let Meng Chuan make exorbitant demands.

“I’m not interested in money, but I’m even less interested in sharing equity.”

Meng Chuan said leisurely:

“Currently, besides Goldman Sachs, I also have equity stakes in BlackRock. I want Goldman Sachs’ 5% stake, and I also want Asma’s 28% stake.”

Meng Chuan finally revealed his true purpose.

Meng Chuan's ultimate goal was to acquire shares in Asmai Company.

Now, Meng Chuan has acquired shares in Asmai Company from Xiao Rizi, making him the second-largest shareholder of Asmai Company.

However, BlackRock still holds the largest stake, with 28% of the shares.

Meng Chuan's initial goal was to acquire Goldman Sachs in exchange for BlackRock's 28% stake in Asma.

But now Meng Chuan doesn't want to change.

Only children make choices; Meng Chuan wants it all.

Now Meng Chuan probably knows the tricks to dealing with these Western capitalists.

The tougher you appear, the more they will back down.

Giving in will only make them think you're easy to bully.

However, before Qiao could even speak after Meng Chuan made this request, the middle-aged man behind him immediately became anxious:

"Young Master Qiao, this won't do. The semiconductor industry is destined to be the future of cutting-edge technology, and we can't give it up..."

The middle-aged man behind Joe was the chairman of BlackRock.

They were also professional agents promoted by the Rothschild family.

Therefore, he was well aware that although Asma's current market value was not high.

However, the technology it possesses is extremely important.

To a certain extent, ASML's technology can directly affect national defense and security, and can even escalate into political maneuvering.

Everyone is now underestimating the importance of asma.

However, this could happen if a major international military confrontation occurs.

Asma's technology is priceless.

"Do you have any say in this?"

Meng Chuan stared at the man behind Qiao with murderous intent.

He was so frightened that he lowered his head.

Even though he is the chairman of BlackRock and has seen many ups and downs.

She also lacked the courage to face Meng Chuan's gaze, which was clouded by her inner demons.

"Say one more word and I'll chop you up and feed you to the dogs."
