"I think the amount of political investment each time should not be too small to be ignored, but there is a key point to pay attention to, that is, don't give the other party the same amount of money every time, so easy for the other party to get used to and take this political investment for granted."

Huo Lin said to Su Peng.

"Well, that's a good point."

Su Peng nodded and said, "Occasionally give a beggar ten Australian dollars, he will be grateful to you, but give him ten Australian dollars every day, and suddenly one day only give nine Australian dollars, he will resent you." ”

"That's it, the politicians I've observed, they're like...... To make an inappropriate analogy, it is like teasing the Labrador in your own home, although in fact they will give each other money, but they also have to tease themselves to be happy, and then give the dog something to eat, or even not to give, so that the dog can see the food, maintain the longing for the food, and after the most difficult work to get the food, it will be grateful to you. ”

"Hehe, this metaphor ......"

When Su Peng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh twice.

"Mr. Su, a few days ago, my colleague informed me that you asked for a copy of the highly popular candidate Lu Kevin in this year's election, and the object of your political investment is probably ......."

Huo Lin stood beside Su Peng very obediently and asked his own questions at the right time.

"Well, it's him, do you know him? How's his appetite? ”

Of course, Huo Lin would not think that Su Peng was asking about Lu Kewen's physical condition, he replied: "I have handled some of his files before, read some of his materials, he is quite restrained in terms of money, compared to some politicians, there is not so much greedy desire, but it is not without desire." ”

"That's ......" Su Peng nodded and said, "Then what do you think." How much should I 'feed' at one time? Like you said, keep his attention without letting him take it for granted. ”

"If it's Rulkvin...... I would recommend offering €200,000 to €500,000 every time his campaign website is looking for fundraising, and he won't call for donations more than five times a year, so that he can form a good relationship with him for just over $2 million at most, but I don't recommend investing too much in the beginning. The amount of investment can be changed depending on the authenticity of the rhetoric in his campaign website and the importance of the reason for the fundraiser. ”

"You can think about it."

Su Peng nodded, he also planned to do this, but he didn't know much about Lu Kewen's appetite.

Su Peng nodded, logged on to Ruckervin's website on his open laptop with one hand, left his identity information, and then sent 200,000 Australian dollars from his account to an online fundraising recently called for by Ruckervin.

Look at the dozens, hundreds, or bucks on the site. Su Peng's 200,000 fundraisers are very conspicuous, and the number is almost twice as long as the vast majority of fundraisers, Su Peng looked at the effect and nodded. said: "Lu Kewen is a long-term relationship, let's raise it slowly." ”

Huo Lin didn't make a sound, and stood to the side with his hands down.

"By the way, Huo Lin, get ready. There may be a sum of money going through your company in the next few days...... Probably not less than $200 million...... But the cash flow that goes through your bank is about 700 million dollars, your company. Are there any value-added services? ”

After Su Peng gave money to Lu Kewen's website, he raised his head, looked at Huo Lin and asked.

When Huo Lin heard this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he heard that in the land of China in the far east, there were many magical people, magical things, and countless invisible rich people...... At the time, I didn't feel it, but now I look at Su Peng, who seems to have effortlessly deposited more than $500 million in cash in Merrill Lynch, and then has to add at least $200 million in deposits.

You must know that even if it is a large arms company like Leighton, 700 million US dollars is not said to be taken out immediately, and some companies, not to mention that the market value is tens of billions, but if the other party makes up 700 million US dollars in cash, it is estimated that the capital chain will be broken immediately.

And this Mr. Su easily has all this.

Huo Lin felt extremely proud and proud of his advanced vision in his heart, if he hadn't seen that this might be a gold mine when a piece of gold hidden in the dirt had not yet shone, how could he hug this thigh and let himself be proud of the spring breeze?

Merrill Lynch has a motto for all employees of the company, which is "money is power".

Huo Lin deeply believes that Merrill Lynch's influence in the world is that it has a huge amount of money, which is embodied power, although Merrill Lynch's own money is not very terrifying, but the money to achieve its own goals through it is an astronomical amount.

Just like Huo Lin, he doesn't have much money himself, but he can mobilize Su Peng's $500 million in deposits, which means that he can exercise the power quantified into $500 million, which is not considered lightweight in the capital market, and he enjoys this feeling very much.

At this time, Su Peng wants to make an additional deposit, which is equivalent to adding his power, and he naturally welcomes it, and even makes concessions that are extremely unimaginable to others.

Huo Lin thought for a while, took a step forward, and said: "Mr. Su, if your $200 million is still handed over to Merrill Lynch Bank for escrow, I can guarantee that no matter where the money comes from, it can be turned into a reliable source of legitimate money at the case of a handling fee of 1.5% of the phone bill, if your total additional deposit reaches 1 billion US dollars, I can reduce the entrustment fee to less than 1% for you, if your deposit amount exceeds 1.5 billion US dollars, you can not only get the return fee of the previously deposited assets, I can also help you with asset sourcing processing that doesn't cost a dime. ”

Su Peng listened and nodded.

The money laundering method that Huo Lin said without spending a penny, Su Peng had heard of it.

As Merrill Lynch motto, money is power, and $1.5 billion in cash is a huge force.

If the entrusted management of this money is in the hands of Merrill Lynch, the dividends they generate through the investment of operating capital are not worth the 10 percent handling fee.

If you can pull down that amount of money, no matter what the source is, Merrill Lynch Bank will not refuse to come, you are bin Laden, and they dare to take your money to help you launder your investment.

And so many high-cost money laundering methods on the market are not actually because of technical difficulties. Or they can't find Merrill Lynch, the main reason is that their total amount of money is too small.

In recent years, conventional enterprises that are not resource-based enterprises rarely have cash flow of more than $1.5 billion.

However, Su Peng estimated his own situation, and it was reluctant to raise 1.5 billion US dollars, but 1 billion was not too difficult.

"Let's see when the time comes, let's start with the additional $200 million."

Su Peng said, and then said, "It's almost time, right?" Ready to get started? ”

Huo Lin looked at his watch and said, "It's almost over, let's go." Go to Leighton Corporation. ”

Su Peng nodded, a room of experts and bodyguards went out together, outside Su Peng's villa, there were seven or eight cars parked, these bodyguards and experts got into their respective cars, formed a convoy, and drove towards Leighton Company.

Along the way, Huo Lin, who was in the same car as Su Peng, kept reminding Su Peng of some important materials. It felt a lot like halftime in boxing, when the coach told the boxers to play tactics.

Su Peng took this information into his mind one by one, and a general picture had already emerged.

Among the Leighton company, there are only two people who are most likely to have a conflict with themselves. It's Jacques Stone, and Oyani. Layton and the two.

These two people are the first and second largest shareholders respectively, and they are likely to be rebuked by two people during the negotiations.

But according to Merrill Lynch. Even if it is a reproach, the purpose of these two men should be different.

Ou Yani. Leighton's purpose should be to compress as much as possible the rights that Su Peng obtained from Leighton Company that could threaten the dominance of the Leighton family. And to fight for the interests of Leighton.

And Jia Ke Stone just didn't want Su Peng to inject capital at all.

In this way, the two largest shareholders have different purposes in themselves.

In this way, many favorable conditions can be brought to Su Peng.

Su Peng thought about this, and soon, the team arrived at Leighton Company.

Leighton's corporate headquarters, located in the southern suburbs of Canberra, is a free-standing high-rise building with a distinctive architecture that looks a bit like the new headquarters of CCAV TV station upside down.

However, the appearance of this building is a little special, but it has a history, when the head of the Leighton family, Manson. Leighton, who was once assassinated, was able to survive at the cost of a dozen broken bones and two bullet holes in his left leg thanks to a body armor made by Leighton.

After the old Layton recovered from his injury, he unconsciously developed feelings for the Layton 0933 body armor produced by his company, and he always wore one when he went out, even when he participated in the Australian high-level cocktail party.

At that time, when Leighton Company rebuilt its headquarters, Leighton Sr. found a high-quality architect from the Department of Architecture of the University of Pennsylvania in the United States to design the entire Leighton Company's headquarters as it is now.

It is the headquarters of the new building that looks like CCAV's jeans upside down, and the real inspiration for this building is actually from the shape of Layton Type 0933 body armor.

Seeing this building, Su Peng couldn't help but be speechless for a while, and at the same time, he intuitively felt that Leighton Company was a multi-personal arms company.

Australia is worth everything, but land is not worth much, and the people living on this independent continent are only 20 million people, resulting in an extremely rich personal space, which is also reflected in the area of the headquarters of Leighton Company.

Five hundred meters away from Leighton, Su Peng had already seen the vigilant people, and what was quite surprising was that these vigilantes were not wearing the black suits of the bodyguards, but camouflage uniforms, but they were a little different from the Australian Army, the color was more inclined to earthy yellow, and in addition, these people looked more like real soldiers.

Including the weapons on their bodies, Su Peng saw a few assault rifles that should be produced by Layton Company itself, and were equipped with the 'soldiers' who were on guard here.

Su Peng and the others' motorcade drove over, these security personnel in military uniforms stopped the car, Huo Lin came forward to show the documents, and then those security personnel talked to the headquarters building again before letting Su Peng and others go.

Seeing that Su Peng seemed to be curious about the security personnel in these armies, Huo Lin explained in Su Peng's ear: "These are the real Australian Army, Leighton Company and the Australian Army have a ten-year agreement, Leighton Company will train some Australian Army soldiers in security knowledge, and then these people will return to serve in the army, and now the people you see are just the Australian Army's 'interns' in Leighton Company." After all, Leighton's security training is well-known in the world. ”

When Su Peng heard this, he couldn't help but be speechless for a while...... According to Hollin, the security training of Leighton Company is more professional than that of the Australian Army, so the Australian Army sends active-duty soldiers here to 'learn' and 'learn from experience', and then return to the army after completing their studies to participate in other missions and continue to serve.

"This is probably something that only happens in these capitalist countries. In Huaxia, if there is such a company, I am afraid that it will be terminated by the government a long time ago...... "Su Peng thought in his heart, in China, there are companies that dare to control more high-end force than the Huaxia government and still want to live? I'm afraid it will be dusted a long time ago.

However, this also gave Su Peng an intuitive and specific understanding of the strength of Leighton Company.

Such a powerful company, mixed to the current point, can only be said to be the time. Luck also.

Perhaps, there are a few ghosts jumping up and down in the company.

Shaking his head, Su Peng threw these ridiculous thoughts out of his mind.

The car continued on its way, and soon reached the headquarters of the Layton company.

Layton at the door. Someone has already come to pick up Su Peng and the others.

Su Peng and the others were greeted by an Asian female secretary with glasses and black silk on her feet. The career line is quite deep, she saw Su Peng and others get out of the car, and said, "Is it Mr. Huo Lin and investors from Merrill Lynch?" I'm Ou Yani. Miss Leighton's office secretary. I'm here to pick you up. ”

Huo Lin and the others looked at Su Peng, and Su Peng also glanced at this Asian lady, and from her English accent, she seemed to hear a trace of Japanese English.

However, for a giant like Leighton Company, it is normal for the recruited talents to be of various nationalities, but Su Peng didn't think much about it, but said, "Go up." ”

Huo Lin nodded, and Su Peng's bodyguard group and expert group followed the secretary who was suspected to be a Japanese lady and walked towards the headquarters of Leighton Company.

Huo Lin walked beside Su Peng, afraid that Su Peng would not understand the situation here, and said: "The headquarters of Leighton Company is in Canberra, and there is also a subordinate security company, three weapon testing sites, and a weapon development department. ”

Su Peng nodded, but did not stop at his feet, and continued to follow the Japanese secretary in front of him.

Soon, everyone arrived at an elevator, and at the door of the elevator stood two security guards in military uniforms.

"Mr. Huo Lin, Mr. Investor, this elevator is a director's elevator that goes directly to the boardroom, and within Leighton, there should be no problem with safety, and the two gentlemen can consider only bringing their own team of consultants up."

The Japanese female secretary turned around at this time and said to Su Peng and Huo Lin, she also noticed just now that Su Peng was the one who gave orders in this group.

Su Peng nodded, there is really no need to bring bodyguards here, but Su Peng did not act completely according to the other party's words, because from the perspective of aura, the most taboo in the negotiation is to act completely according to the instructions of the other party, even if the other party is reasonable, the following rules must be violated, otherwise it is easy to be brought into a state of being eaten by the other party.

Su Peng casually ordered two bodyguards who looked more alert and flexible, and said, "The two of you will also go up with the expert group." ”

After speaking, Su Peng strode into the elevator.

Those bodyguards naturally obeyed the boss's orders, and the advisory group and these two bodyguards entered the elevator with Su Peng.

The Japanese female secretary naturally saw it, but she didn't say anything, just walked in herself, and then used the password to start the elevator.

The elevator closed and rose, Su Peng observed, this elevator is very similar to the elevator when he was in Tianyi Company, it is a closed elevator, the password is activated, it can only go to the exclusive floor, absolutely safe, to say the different places, that is, this elevator is bigger, more luxurious, and the decoration inside feels that it can be called low-key luxury with connotation, and it is very high-grade taste.

The elevator ran for a while, then stopped, the Japanese female secretary pressed the open button, Su Peng heard the sound of the closed air pressure disappearing, and then the elevator door slowly opened.

Outside Su Peng and others, there is a 100-square-meter room, the elevator is directly in this room, it is a special elevator room, the female secretary took Su Peng and others, walked out of the elevator, and then walked outside.

Su Peng and the others, as the Japanese female secretary walked out of the elevator room covered with a carpet of at least 1,000 US dollars and one square meter, pushed the door and walked out, walked through two consecutive doors, and came to a large room.

This room is at least three or four hundred square meters in size, but only a small part of the area is occupied by desks, and there are four or five female secretaries who are all over 1.7 meters tall and have very beautiful appearances working.

"This is the director's exclusive secretary's office, and I will inform the chairman."

The Japanese female secretary said that she walked over and talked in a low voice with her colleagues in the office area of this room, and soon someone made a phone call.

Not long after, a female secretary-like person with blonde hair pulled up high, I don't know where Lu Dao came from, walked up to Su Peng and the others, and said, "Is it Mr. Huo Lin and the investor?" The chairman of the board of directors is holding a board meeting, and the chairman of the board of directors asked me to invite Mr. Huo Lin and investors to bring up to two consultants to the board meeting......" (to be continued......

PS: Yesterday I was thinking about the plot, but I was so excited that I didn't sleep all night, and until the day, my heart and liver were constantly throbbing, and then my spirit was so excited that I couldn't sleep.

It wasn't until more than seven o'clock in the evening that I was a little sleepy, but this was the time when the coast was used to writing, as long as I drank tea and Red Bull, I resisted the sleepiness and wrote a chapter.

Today's content doesn't seem to need to be divided, so I wrote a 5,000-word chapter and put a chapter.

Very sleepy, the coast is going to sleep now......
