Chapter 30 What use do I have for you?
Hearing that he couldn't use 10x leverage, Lu Yiming was full of disdain: "If you can't , what use do I have for you?"
“…”
Zheng Zhiguang's face was tense. If he didn't have a good temper, he would have wanted to hit someone. But making money was not shameful.
Seeing Lu Yiming so arrogant, he thought it was time to show off his connections, so he suggested: “Regarding the matter of capital leverage, I’ll go outside and make a phone call first.”
Not long after, Zheng Zhiguang came back with a big smile on his face: "Mr. Lu, I asked someone to find some connections and can help you contact a few small financial companies. They have fund lending business and are willing to provide leverage within five times, but the interest rate may be a bit high."
Obviously, the sources of funds for these financial companies may not be so clean, but what does this have to do with me?
Hearing that Zheng Zhiguang could get a five-fold leverage, Lu Yiming nodded and agreed, "Okay, five times is five times, the interest doesn't matter. Anyway, if you win, you go to the club, and if you lose, you also go to the club."
Zheng Zhiguang shook his head helplessly when he saw that Lu Yiming didn't even ask about the interest. Seeing that Lu Yiming looked so confident at the moment, he was too lazy to persuade him.
Young people nowadays really don’t know how to live or die.
He came to Hong Kong to study and work, and had seen many such gamblers. Until they lost the last penny in their pockets, these people would not stop their greed and madness, and would only continue to rush towards hell.
It's hard to persuade a suicidal person with kind words.
With the idea that he would not get the commission back at all, Zheng Zhiguang's attitude was inevitably a bit bleak: "Okay, then I'll arrange it for you."
Although he could not earn Lu Yiming's commission, if the financial company succeeded in this deal, he could still get a lot of commission. It was also making money, so Zheng Zhiguang certainly would not mind.
After working for half an hour, Zheng Zhiguang came back with a smile on his face: "I have arranged it."
Lu Yiming nodded slightly, affirming his efforts: "Thank you for your hard work."
Thinking that he could get a referral fee from the financial company anyway, Zheng Zhiguang said politely, "It's not hard, this is my job. You two, it's getting late, how about having a quick meal together?"
Originally, this was just a polite remark from Zheng Zhiguang, but Lu Yiming was so happy that he stroked his belly and laughed, "Oh, Mr. Zheng is so polite? That's just right, I can save a meal. You know, I'm from the mainland, and the mainland is generally not rich now, so I can save a little. Oh, by the way, I've heard that Hong Kong cuisine is famous, especially the Long Jing Xuan in the Four Seasons Hotel. I came here because of its reputation. I'm sure Manager Zheng will not let me down, right?"
“…”
Zheng Zhiguang was so stunned by Lu Yiming that he couldn't speak a word.
You are a millionaire, can't you spend your own money to eat? Why do you have to take advantage of me?
Of course, Long Jingxuan’s food is famous, famous for being delicious, and famous for being expensive!
I'm just being polite, can't you hear that?
What kind of person is this!
Seeing that Zheng Zhiguang didn't speak for a while, Lu Yiming asked kindly, "What's wrong? Did Mr. Zheng encounter any difficulties?"
Seeing Lu Yiming's concerned expression, Zheng Zhiguang began to curse in his heart, but he pretended to be generous and said with a smile: "No, it's not difficult. Mr. Lu is willing to choose our Standard Chartered Bank, so it's only right to treat Mr. Lu to a meal."
After all, Lu Yiming had just deposited 300,000 US dollars in Standard Chartered Bank and had also negotiated a five-fold financing. He was a big client anyway, and Zheng Zhiguang had no choice.
Lu Yiming nodded with satisfaction: "Ah, that's good that you don't have any difficulties. I can't stand seeing others in trouble, and I want to help them when they are in trouble. I was just thinking about saying that if Mr. Zheng is in trouble, I will treat him to a meal. Since Mr. Zheng has no difficulties, Mr. Zheng will treat you today, and I will treat you next time."
Then he waved his hand and shouted, "Let's go, it's time for us to leave. I heard that the seats at Long Jing Xuan are very tight. If we go too late, they will be gone. Your bank should have a car, right? How about you ask your bank's driver to give us a ride?"
Zheng Zhiguang's face was as black as coal, but as things had developed to this point, he was already in a dilemma and had no choice but to call to arrange a car.
He wanted to slap himself a few times right now, why the hell are you talking so much!
The Peninsula Hotel is the oldest existing hotel in Hong Kong and one of the most luxurious and famous hotels in Hong Kong and even in the world.
The hotel is located at 22 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, facing Victoria Harbour. It opened on December 11, 1928 and is known as the "Lady of the Far East". Celebrities who have stayed there include former U.S. President Richard Nixon, movie star Clark Gables, NBA star Michael Jordan, etc.
In his previous life, Lu Yiming had never been to such a place, but he didn't expect that someone would treat him to a meal now.
Standing at the entrance of The Peninsula Hotel and looking up at the hotel's concave layout, Li Yiwen felt as if he was in a dream.
Of course he knew the Peninsula Hotel, and he had even walked past the avenue in front of it several times when he came to Hong Kong for business. But such a luxurious and domineering hotel, let alone eating and staying here, was something that Li Yiwen felt would be a lifetime honor if he could go in and take a look.
When he arrived at the hotel entrance and saw the long row of Rolls-Royce Silver Angels parking spaces, Li Yiwen felt like his heart was stopping.
"LesLes Silver Angel!"
Zheng Zhiguang's expression was slightly surprised: "The Peninsula Hotel's Rolls-Royce fleet is the largest in the world. And as long as Rolls-Royce releases the latest model, they will definitely change it. So some people with connections will say hello to the hotel and wait for them to change the car. But this opportunity is not common, because the hotel usually has its own channels."
Along the way, they met people driving luxury cars in and out, and even met a few currently popular Hong Kong stars, which made Li Yiwen scream.
In contrast, Lu Yiming always looked calm, as if eating here was no different from eating at an ordinary fly restaurant, and those so-called celebrities were no different from the pedestrians coming and going on the street.
From the beginning till now, Zheng Zhiguang has actually been observing Lu Yiming.
Because there are too many mysteries surrounding Lu Yiming.
You say he is dressed simply and looks like an ordinary person, but he can easily take out his savings of $300,000.
You say he is a mainlander who has never seen the world, but he knows the Peninsula Hotel and asks to come to Lung King Heen for dinner. How can an ordinary person have such knowledge?
He can remain calm even when faced with top luxury cars like the Rolls-Royce Silver Angel, and he doesn't even look away when faced with gorgeous female stars posing coquettishly, appearing very stylish.
This kind of determination alone is not something that ordinary young people can possess.
The key point is that he is so bold as to want to speculate on the ruble!
He also said that three hundred thousand US dollars is a small amount of money and if you lose it, you lose it.
Listen, does this sound like something a normal person would say?
Zheng Zhiguang was very suspicious whether this Lu Yiming was a descendant of some big family in the mainland, who was specially sent out for training.
He felt that taking this opportunity to make friends with a young man from a big family who was going out to gain experience was a good deal. At least today's money was not wasted. With such thoughts in his mind, Zheng Zhiguang felt much better.
