Volume 8 Final Chapter Chapter 1257: Benon Chessboard, Rich and Inhumane
Shiva was very efficient. He bought two adjacent villas in the Palm Lawn community in one day. He then worked intensively to renovate the water, electricity and security facilities. Shiva then took time off to handle matters such as company registration.
Of course, the registered company is not a foreign enterprise, but a local enterprise.
Voluntary Water Services Company, Mii Internet Company, and Deva Capital (Deva, which means god), register these three companies first.
Nan Yi gave KiKi another task, which was to find domestic manufacturers to consult for solutions according to his concept of "water". The manufacturers here in India definitely cannot make water purification systems well, and even if they can, the price will be very expensive. Only domestic manufacturers can find high-quality and low-priced ones.
The water purification system needed to be branded, so Nanyi directly decided on the brand name "Varuna", the name of the Indian water god, and then launched the task of designing a logo on Zolo, a platform that can be compared to Zhubajie in China.
After handing out the tasks, Nan Yi had nothing to do. Looking at KiKi, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa with a notebook on his legs and a mobile phone tucked between his shoulders while talking on the phone, he found him pleasing to the eye.
Nan Yi couldn't help but sigh: "A woman who makes money for herself is still the most beautiful."
His interest in KiKi's body was no longer so strong, and now he wanted to eat her brain more.
After admiring it for a while, he lowered his head to look at the information on the tablet. Pabu Vaze sent him some information about Internet companies that were worth investing in. He wanted to screen them and spend some money.
Pratilipi, a free-reading literature sharing platform, has hundreds of thousands of authors and more than five million monthly active users. It is currently in the early stages of development. TCS has provided seed round financing, and Labor Media and Wangbei Capital are also in contact.
"Wangbei Capital has a long reach."
Muttering to himself, Nan Yi flipped through the reports of Wangbei Media and read them backwards in time. In the 2017 report, he saw some content about going overseas. It basically said that there were no , and the targets that had been invested in before were not worth reinvesting in. Wangbei Capital could only go overseas to find new fertile ground for investment.
Nan Yi thought so too. Past cases have been telling a fact: entertainment and media companies have not escaped the curse of their most glorious moment after listing. They can prepare to implement cash-out plans as soon as they go public. The earlier they cash out, the more money they will make, while the later they cash out, the less money they will make.
Even if there is an occasional miracle of a big rise, the financial report will be attached with the aura of a master, who first establishes a required result and then fabricates the process; the dates may not be true.
Today, the big domestic media companies are getting worse and worse. Investing in them at this time will only provide others with an opportunity to get out of the predicament, while you will be stuck in it.
Some small entertainment companies have performed quite well. Wangbei Capital has invested in three companies specializing in anti-Japanese dramas. Not to mention, although the dividends are less, they are continuous year after year, and they can even attract product placement. Peace Industry Group has placed an advertisement for the Adler-Scar77 short-barreled rifle in a "young model anti-Japanese drama."
You know what, really, you know what, the advertising footage is not bad, highlighting the selling points such as strong firepower, high precision, and unlimited bullets. One shot kills a tiny tank, one volley kills a Yamato, and then the gun is raised and the air is swept randomly, and 108 Zero fighters fall down. It's really cold-blooded and ruthless. It's a pity that the advertising conversion rate is zero, and sales have not increased as a result.
There are limited high-quality projects, but there is a lot of capital associated with the Nan family. It is inevitable that different capitals will take a fancy to a project. Pratilipi is too popular, so Wuzhi Trust will not join in the fun.
Pratilipi didn't work, so Nan Yi started to check the information of Sharechat and Dialyhunt. Sharechat is a social networking service platform, to put it simply, it is the Indian version of Toutiao, affiliated to its parent company Mohalla Tech. This company is quite interesting, and its development path is similar to ByteDance, operating projects in batches, and doing it if it works, and stopping if it doesn't.
If the leadership of Mohalla Tech is studying ByteDance and caring about geopolitics, the next step will probably be to launch an Indian version of Neihan Duanzi or TikTok. This is a company with good prospects. It's a pity that TCS and TTM have already invested in it, and Adam is also eyeing it.
Dialyhunt……
"What the hell, Whitewater Investment has its hands in it."
Home healthcare service provider Portea, women's professional clothing e-commerce Kaaryah, luxury second-hand e-commerce Zapyle, etc., as long as Nan Yi has his eye on something, he can always see the names of its own people other than TCS in the investment list. It seems that Deva Capital is not worthy of investing in the best projects.
Nan Yi threw the tablet aside and stopped looking at the information. Nan's plow had been used over and over again, and the good ones had been collected long ago. The possibility of finding gold from the remaining ones was too low. It would be a little difficult for him to screen them alone.
Let Qin Chengying study the gold rebate website CashKaro that he had picked out. Nan Yi gave some inspiring words of encouragement to the people who were working, and he slipped into the hotel swimming pool to swam a few laps.
…
Gold Coast International Airport, Gold Coast, Australia.
Fan Qianye stood at the airport exit, tilting his head and staring at the tablet in his secretary's hand.
He was called back to China by Nan Yi to deal with his father. Once the matter was settled, he returned to Australia and became a mature businessman, running his own asset management company and investment company.
With the help of Fan Hongdou, it was easier for him to run the investment company and he could do it while having fun. He spent most of his energy on the asset management company.
Asset management, the main business is "managing other people's finances on their behalf". To be more popular, it can be called trust directly. Fan Qianye is in the business of managing other people's finances. His Chizoba Asset Management Company manages a fund of more than 50 billion US dollars. Tracing back to the source, most of the funds were originally currencyd in RMB.
Obviously, most of Chizoba's clients are from China. Fan Qianye can not only provide high-quality and considerate services to clients, but also keep his mouth shut. He will not say what he shouldn't say and will not ask what he shouldn't ask. He will never ask about the source of clients' funds, whether earned, printed, begged, or greedy. To him, there is no difference. Money is money, and there is no distinction between dirty and clean.
He believed that the reason why women would say things like "Who wants your stinky money" was only because the money was not thick enough, not because it was stained with the soup of the double-headed abalone.
He is based in Australia and just needs to abide by Australian laws. He doesn't need to care about anything else. Serving his customers well is the serious matter.
Now, he is just waiting for a client and a potential client.
The client's surname is Zhong, and she is a young girl. It is not convenient to disclose her personal information, so he gave her an alias "Zhong Jiumei" according to her nine-digit net worth in US dollars, and also a code name "Catfish"; the potential client is called Liu Jun, a very shrewd businessman who has come ashore. His net worth of $400 million in cash is already worthy of his serious attention.
When the passengers left the station, a haughty and arrogant little girl and an ordinary middle-aged man came out one after another. Fan Qianye and his secretary hurriedly greeted them.
Customers and potential customers, Fan Qianye chose to go to the customer who looked difficult to serve first, "Hello, Miss Zhong, I am Fan Qianye from Chizoba."
Catfish did not respond to Fan Qianye, but pushed his suitcase to his secretary and said coldly: "Where is the car parked? You are tired, go back to the hotel early."
"Kerr, take Miss Zhong to the parking lot." Fan Qianye instructed his secretary, and then said to Catfish: "Miss Zhong, I will visit you at the hotel at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning and explain the contract details to you."
"Got it." Catfish responded indifferently and immediately urged Ke'er to lead the way.
After watching Catfish leave, Fan Qianye walked towards Liu Jun who had stopped and waited, and said apologetically, "Mr. Liu, I'm sorry for the delay."
"It's okay, Mr. Fan. I come to the Gold Coast for vacation. I have plenty of time and can enjoy the sunshine, beach and beauties to my heart's content." Liu Jun said in a seemingly nonchalant tone but with a hint of meaning.
Fan Qianye smiled and said, "Mr. Liu has chosen the right place for vacation. I have a friend who holds parties several times a month. Tonight happens to be the day of the party. I can take Mr. Liu to participate. I believe you will not be disappointed."
"Is it really that magical?"
"Yes."
Fan Qianye responded and led Liu Jun to the parking lot. On the way, he introduced Liu Jun to the free security service provided by Chizoba. Regardless of whether Liu Jun would eventually become a client of Chizoba, Chizoba would be responsible for Liu Jun's safety during this trip to Australia to ensure that there would be no accidents.
Mantra Legends Surfers Paradise, this is the hotel that Fan Qianye arranged for Liu Jun. It is located in the heart of Surfers Paradise, adjacent to Paradise Island, many specialty restaurants, shopping malls and tourist attractions, which is very convenient.
The hotel has a restaurant, swimming pool, terrace, gym, steam room, Swedish sauna and other facilities. Various rooms and suites are well-equipped with private balconies and beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean or Surfers Paradise skyline.
Fan Qianye sent Liu Jun to the hotel lobby, agreed to pick him up at 7 o'clock in the evening, and then left in a hurry.
His home is in Melbourne, more than 1,700 kilometers away from the Gold Coast. This time he came here not only to entertain clients, but also to take his family here on vacation.
As for men, when they mature, getting married and having children is a must in life, especially when they have a fortune of hundreds of millions, they always want someone to inherit their property. Only very few men who have enough money, no pressure in life, and no health problems choose to be DINKs, and most of them have unspeakable reasons, or because of their status, it is inconvenient for others to know that they have children.
Fan Qianye is a normal man. When he reaches a certain age, he will naturally get married and have children. He has an Italian wife who gave birth to two sons and three daughters. He also has a son in China, the product of an impulse, who is being raised by Xu Xiaofang.
After playing with his family on the coast and having dinner together, Fan Qianye arrived at the hotel on time and took Liu Jun to a villa called "Candy" on the coast.
As soon as he arrived at the parking lot of Candy Villa, Liu Jun sneered at the owner's taste. There were three Lamborghini supercars parked where his eyes were. Under the refraction of the lights, the surface of the cars was shining with golden light, which was very dazzling.
"Gold-plated supercar, really a luxury."
Less than ten seconds after Liu Jun started to think that his taste was superior to his master's, a big reversal occurred.
"Chizoba, welcome to my chocolate candy factory again."
As the voice sounded, a tall and strong man with a full beard came to Fan Qianye and Liu Jun with three "dogs".
When Liu Jun saw the three "dogs" on the ground, he was stunned for a moment. These were not dogs at all, but three bikini girls with beautiful figures.
"Damn, you really know how to have fun."
"Travers, you got a new pet?" Fan Qianye glanced at the three women on all fours and blurted out a few common nicknames for female dogs, "Bella? Lucy? Maggie?"
Travers laughed a few times, pointed at the women and said, "NO, they are Nisha and Crystal. She doesn't need my introduction, right?"
Fan Qianye smiled at the woman Travers hadn't introduced, "Good evening, Mrs. Benon."
Without waiting for the other party to respond, Fan Qianye looked at Travers again, "Travers, let me introduce you, this is my new friend Jun Liu; Mr. Liu, this is the world's number one playboy, Travers Beynon, the helmsman of Freechoice Tobacco Company."
After listening to Fan Qianye's introduction, Travers stepped forward, shook Liu Jun's hand, and said, "Liu, welcome to my party. Today's party is quite special."
"Thank you, Mr. Benon, you can call me Adam." Liu Jun responded politely.
"OK, Adam, you can just call me Travers. Chizoba, follow me, I'll show you what's different today." Travers said, holding the dog and leading the two of them deep into the villa's garden.
As he went deeper, Liu Jun saw many beauties, blondes, brunettes, redheads, all wearing bikinis and with hot bodies. He counted them and there were more than 65 or 6 of them. Suddenly, his knees felt weak and he wanted to kneel down and shout to Travers, "Brother, please accept my respects."
When they entered the lobby of the villa, Travers said to Liu Jun, "Adam, are you interested in playing a game of chess?"
Liu Jun nodded casually, "Okay."
Travers loosened the dog leash around Mrs. Bennon's chest. Without his instructions, she got up from the ground, walked out of the villa, and came back with four women in a few minutes.
"Mrs. Bennon" instructed two of the women to kneel down on the floor next to each other. Travers placed a chess board on the two women's delicate backs. Then, the other two women were instructed to kneel down on both sides of the chess board.
Travers sat on a "stool" himself and pointed to another one to Liu Jun, "Adam, please sit down."
Liu Jun was eager to try, but he pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Travers, I'm 165 pounds, will I crush her?"
Unexpectedly, the beautiful woman who was acting as a stool smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir, it will be fine. You are definitely lighter than Mr. Benon. He is fine, so you will be fine too."
Travers nodded. "That's how I usually play chess."
In this case, Liu Jun stopped pretending and slowly sat on the beautiful woman's back. He didn't dare to sit down firmly but just used her for support. He still supported the whole body with his feet.
Seeing this, Travers smiled and said, "Adam, relax, it's okay."
Liu Jun let out a sigh of relief and put more weight on the beauty's back.
To be honest, he was not very accustomed to this somewhat insulting way of treating people. It crossed his bottom line in dealing with people, especially when he heard Fan Qianye call one of the "dogs" "Mrs. Benon", suspecting that she was Travers' wife, he felt a little disgusted.
For other women, forget about it, but it was a business relationship where both parties were willing to fight and be beaten, and he treated his wife like a dog. This was something he could not understand and could never accept.
He was a little confused, and his chess level was very average to begin with. It didn't take long for him to be defeated by Travers. After losing the game, he gave up his position to Fan Qianye.
When Fan Qianye came on the court, Liu Jun knew what it meant to be relaxed and at ease.
While paying attention to the chessboard and the intense fight with Travers, Fan Qianye could also flirt with the "stool" under him - a glass of red wine, he would drink a sip himself, then feed the stool a sip, and so on, and from time to time he would stroke the stool with his hands, making it tremble.
After playing chess, the party officially began. The process was so decadent that Liu Jun kept it as top secret, gave it a code name "Hai Tian Sheng Yan", and never mentioned it to anyone.
After leaving Candy Villa, Liu Jun asked Fan Qianye about the origins of the woman at the party. Fan Qianye gave him the following answer:
The Gold Coast is a well-known leisure resort with many beautiful women coming here for vacation. There are always some people willing to come to the famous Candy Villa to earn some extra money. The villa has a free luxury swimming pool, high-end food and accommodation, and some women even come here specifically for Travers.
However, there are usually less than ten beauties at ordinary parties. A large occasion like today's is quite rare. There should be bonuses, roughly around five hundred dollars per person per day, and there are additional rewards for good performance.
As for what constitutes a good performance, Liu Jun has just experienced it deeply. He can only say that compared to Travers, he is a rookie who hasn't even reached the threshold to play.
Compared with Liu Jun's enjoyment, Nan Yi's life is much more ordinary.
At eight o'clock in the evening, it was dinner time for Indian families, so Nan Yi took KiKi to Tang Tea Garden for dinner. After the meal, they passed by the recently famous "Nirav Modi" jewelry store. KiKi suggested going in for a look. Nan Yi readily agreed and told her that the jewelry store owner Nirav Modi had fled India.
KiKi walked in front of the counter and looked at the jewelry on display, asking, "Did you commit a crime?"
"Loan fraud, 1.8 billion US dollars." Nan Yi responded, lost in memories.
According to Priyanka, the reason why Nirav Modi's loan fraud was exposed so quickly was because of the involvement of Metropolitan Securities.
In the second half of the previous year, the stock price of Punjab National Bank, India's second largest state-owned bank, rose significantly. While the Shock Wave team was operating this stock to make profits, they also conducted in-depth research on the bank's loan situation.
The reason for studying this is not a whim, because India's state-controlled banks have a considerable amount of bad debts, and "loan fraud" involving collusion between internal and external parties is nothing new.
A study revealed that Nirav Modi and his uncle Mayur Choksi, two well-known jewelry tycoons in India, issued several "forged" letters of guarantee through the Mumbai branch of the Punjab National Bank to guarantee loans and obtained a six-year loan of approximately US$1.8 billion from overseas branches of Indian banks.
No need to say anything, just turn around and prepare to short.
