Chapter 560: The Scam

~15 min read 2,819 words

Xu Jiawei immediately understood the implication, stood up, and announced directly: "Mr. Cao, I have already decided. There is no need to say anything more about this matter!"

Xu Jiawei's tone had turned cold, which caused the Wall Street lobbyists led by Franklin to immediately reveal joyful smiles on their faces.

Cao Weicai's expression turned gloomy, and he said to Xu Jiawei: "You will regret cooperating with this group of people!"

"I am the president of Shenzhou Technology!" Xu Jiawei said with dissatisfaction.

Cao Weicai let out a cold snort, didn't say a word, directly knocked over his chair, and then stood up to leave the conference room.

After Cao Weicai left the conference room, lobbyists like Franklin immediately began to discuss company matters with Xu Jiawei.

After all, it hadn't been easy to fool away that troublemaker Cao Weicai; not striking while the iron was hot now would truly mean they were brain-damaged.

After Cao Weicai left the conference room, a cunning smile could not help but appear at the corner of his mouth.

Arriving at the stairwell, he took out his phone and dialed Chen Jiajun's number: "Boss, it's done; these guys have already taken the bait!"

Chen Jiajun instructed: "Don't be so anxious. These Wall Street people are not fools. To put on a play, you must do the whole thing. We must wait until they have invested their capital before we make our move!"

Cao Weicai naturally understood this principle and said with a smile: "It's a pity that none of those large financial groups took the bait!"

"If they had, it would be troublesome. Large financial groups or investment banks are very careful in their work, and this bit of profit from Shenzhou Technology is nothing to them at all! More importantly, these people would definitely hire professionals to conduct an appraisal. Once exposed, there would be no game left to play!" Chen Jiajun said irritably.

Cao Weicai thought for a moment and also felt this was the truth.

As a former client manager at Citibank, he knew every large financial group or investment bank would conduct extremely detailed investigations; even if they didn't earn this money, they would not be willing to risk it.

Thinking of this, Cao Weicai felt somewhat fortunate that he hadn't involved those financial groups and investment banks, otherwise, it would have certainly ruined this plan.

After hanging up the phone, Cao Weicai then left the Shenzhou Technology Company building and returned to the hotel.

On the other side, Xu Jiawei had finished talking with the lobbyists from Wall Street and planned to finalize the new company matters after they went to inspect Shenzhou Technology's factory in Longkou.

After sending off the lobbyists from Wall Street, Xu Jiawei finally let out a sigh of relief: "These bastards are really difficult to deal with!"

Afterward, Xu Jiawei changed his clothes and arrived at Cao Weicai's hotel.

After confirming he hadn't been followed, he then arrived at Cao Weicai's suite.

"Is it done?" Cao Weicai handed over a glass of red wine and said to Xu Jiawei.

Xu Jiawei said with a smile: "Those stupid foreigners are already impatient! They plan to go to the factory with me tomorrow for a look, and then we'll finalize the cooperation!"

Cao Weicai nodded: "Remember, you must make them bring out real money!"

Xu Jiawei nodded, then said with some emotion: "Lao Cao, I have little experience here in the country. Is this what they call 'Wall Street'?"

Cao Weicai sneered and said: "That's right. Deceitful and treacherous; there is no merchant who isn't cunning! When you have utility value, you are the master, and everyone has to cater to you. Once you have no value, you are absolutely worse than dog shit!"

"Tsk!" Xu Jiawei took a sip of wine and said: "I was even planning to go to the United States to see it for myself! Now it seems I'd better forget it! The boss said I don't have the brains for it, and it would be easy to be played to death if I went out there!"

Cao Weicai said with a smile: "Lao Xu, don't be so self-deprecating! At the very least, you could win an Academy Award for your acting!"

"Hahaha, when will you present me with the award?" Xu Jiawei said with a smile.

"When I become the President!" Cao Weicai joked along.

……

The next day, Xu Jiawei personally brought the Wall Street lobbyists to the Shenzhou Tong factory in Longkou.

Of course, in order to make this matter look realistic enough, Cao Weicai brought people to stir up trouble again.

And then he was pushed back by Xu Jiawei once more.

This made Franklin and the others laugh very happily! After all, they had long been unable to stand Shenzhou Technology, this outsider, acting so arrogantly on Wall Street.

Now, seeing Cao Weicai being pushed back by his partner Xu Jiawei felt as refreshing as eating an ice cream in the middle of summer.

After driving Cao Weicai away again, Franklin complimented Xu Jiawei: "Mr. Xu is truly imposing; how could anyone else be allowed to point fingers at your own business!"

Xu Jiawei let out a cold snort, clearly very pleased with Franklin's flattery.

Afterward, Xu Jiawei enthusiastically led these Wall Street people into the factory to observe.

Watching the Shenzhou Tong units being assembled one by one by the workers on the assembly line, these people's eyes went straight.

Xu Jiawei casually picked up a Shenzhou Tong and said mysteriously to Franklin: "How much do you think the cost of the product in my hand is?"

Looking at the stylish and beautiful Shenzhou Tong in Xu Jiawei's hand, Franklin hesitated and guessed: "At least three hundred dollars in cost, right?"

Xu Jiawei smiled slightly and said to Franklin: "Less than one-tenth of what you said!"

"Hiss!" Hearing Xu Jiawei's words, the Wall Street lobbyists couldn't help but gasp.

Xu Jiawei installed a SIM card into the Shenzhou Tong, handed it to Franklin, and then had his subordinate run far away and dial the number.

Very quickly, the Shenzhou Tong in Franklin's hand rang.

After answering, Franklin immediately heard Xu Jiawei's subordinate ask: "Mr. Franklin, can you hear me clearly?"

"Yes, I can hear it very clearly! This is too amazing!" Franklin looked at the Shenzhou Tong in his hand in shock: "This is almost no different from those mobile phones!"

Xu Jiawei said with a smile: "How about it? Do you all think this is a super-profit?"

It was more than a super-profit; the eyes of these Wall Street lobbyists were already red, and their breathing had become rapid.

The cost was less than thirty dollars; if sold according to the pricing standards of mobile phones, it was at least nearly thirty times the profit.

Thirty times the profit! One must know that for current investment projects on Wall Street, five percent a year is already considered a high-profit industry.

Xu Jiawei continued to stimulate these people: "I have already envisioned our new company becoming the most dazzling star in the United States!"

"That goes without saying, Mr. Xu!"

"We think so too!"

"Being able to cooperate with an entrepreneur like you is truly wonderful!"

Hearing Xu Jiawei's words, these people had already started to let their imaginations run wild.

So, after the visit that day, these people returned to the United States to discuss with their company bosses how to push forward the cooperation.

And Cao Weicai also returned to the United States to continue playing his role as a troublemaker.

Constantly obstructing the cooperation between the two sides.

"Hehe, I really want to see the look on their faces when they've eaten shit!"

Inside the Chairman's office of Rust Water Capital, Cao Weicai held the message passed on by a Commercial Spy and said to Chen Jiajun with a chuckle.

Chen Jiajun sneered and said, "These greedy scavengers won't let go once they've bitten the hook! Let's stop talking about them; how is Jordan Belfort, whom I asked you to keep an eye on, doing lately?"

Cao Weicai's expression turned strange as he said, "Boss, where on earth did you find such a rare specimen?"

"What's wrong?" Chen Jiajun asked curiously.

Cao Weicai sniffed and said, "Although the people on Wall Street are all a bunch of scumbags, I have never seen anyone as thoroughly rotten as this; it's simply a rotten man and a rotten company! Calling them dog shit is giving them too much credit, yet even this kind of trash actually received an interview from Forbes!"

As he spoke, Cao Weicai took out a copy of the Forbes interview draft and placed it in front of Chen Jiajun.

After reading it, Chen Jiajun immediately laughed, "He really is a rare specimen, but our subsequent plans can be considered worry-free now!"

……

Jordan Belfort had been riding high lately.

Because he and his company, Stratton Oakmont, were featured in Forbes magazine.

Moreover, this premier media outlet of Wall Street specifically sent someone to conduct an exclusive interview with him.

This made Jordan Belfort very happy, and he specifically hosted the Reporter at his company.

But he didn't expect that after the interview was published, Jordan Belfort would be furious upon seeing it! "This bitch is too presumptuous, listen to this, calling me the 'Wall Street Wolf', look!" Early in the morning, after seeing the interview report, Jordan complained incessantly to his wife in a rage: "'Jordan Belfort, the name sounds like a distorted Robin Hood! Seizing wealth from the rich for himself, along with the group of managers under him...'" As he spoke, Jordan Belfort slammed the newspaper onto the table hard.

His wife could only keep trying to persuade him: "Negative publicity is still publicity, Jordan, your public image is very good, you made it into a big magazine!"

"A good image is worth shit..." Jordan said, still feeling unhappy.

Under his wife's soothing, Jordan finally stopped sulking and prepared to go to the company to take a look.

But as soon as he arrived at the company, Jordan was dumbfounded.

A group of young people in suits saw Jordan coming and immediately swarmed over.

They waved their resumes one after another and said to Jordan, "Mr. Belfort, would you look at my resume?"

"Sir, sir!"

"Sir, look at me!"

Just when he hadn't figured out the situation, his personnel manager finally came over to help him out and got rid of the entanglement of these young people.

Jordan took the opportunity to ask, "What is going on?"

The personnel manager smiled and said, "Because of that Forbes article, they all want to come here to work!"

Only then did Jordan Belfort realize that the Forbes report had directly turned him into a star.

Just as his wife said, negative publicity is still publicity.

Looking at these young people whose eyes were filled with greed, Jordan felt that being the "Wall Street Wolf" wasn't so bad after all.

From then on, this guy Jordan entered the fast lane.

Not only did he soon move into a larger office, but the number of his staff also grew larger and larger.

However, under this guy's "wolf-like" culture, the entire company was just like an insane asylum.

Constantly amassing wealth, it was also constantly refreshing the bottom line of Wall Street.

At the very least, doing drugs inside, hiring escorts at the company, and other such operations were things other companies on Wall Street didn't do.

At least not so blatantly.

However, this series of operations of his finally attracted the attention of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

And they sent two accountants to his company to audit the accounts.

For this, Jordan had to spend a large sum of money to hire a high-level Lawyer to deal with the SEC's investigation.

Just at this time, Chen Jiajun and Cao Weicai arrived at his company.

"Hey, Jordan, I heard you've been doing quite well lately!" Chen Jiajun said to Jordan with a smile.

Compared to the dejected Jordan from a few months ago, this guy now had quite the air of an upstart.

He wore an exquisitely tailored high-end suit, and a watch that radiated golden light on his wrist.

Jordan also smiled and said, "Just some small tricks, nothing much."

Hearing this guy's words, a flash of coldness crossed Cao Weicai's eyes.

One must know that if it weren't for the initial capital Chen Jiajun gave him, this guy would never have developed so rapidly.

Now, facing his own Boss, he didn't mention this matter at all, which shows how poor this bastard's character is.

No wonder the Boss intended to use this asshole as a tool; sure enough, the Boss's judgment of people was spot on.

But Chen Jiajun seemed not to care at all, smiling as he said to Jordan, "Your company should also conduct an IPO, otherwise it still won't be able to make it to the big stage!"

Hearing this, Jordan's heart stirred on the spot.

When he first met Chen Jiajun a few months ago, Chen Jiajun had mentioned this matter.

Now that he was bringing up the old topic again, he was clearly here to collect his "reward."

However, Jordan didn't feel there was anything wrong with it; after all, the sooner a favor is repaid, the better.

And Chen Jiajun was absolutely right; his company did indeed need to conduct an IPO.

A so-called IPO is when a stock is listed for the first time for public purchase.

As the brokerage firm responsible for listing the enterprise, it is very important.

This can prove the strength of this brokerage firm.

And if Jordan's Stratton Oakmont wanted to go further, this matter was definitely something that had to be done.

So Jordan smiled and said, "So Mr. Chen is here to ask me to fulfill my promise?"

"That's right, I have a friend's company that needs to go public, and they haven't found a brokerage firm yet," Chen Jiajun said with a smile.

Xu Jiawei, who was hoodwinking those people on Wall Street into investing, definitely wanted to list on the Nasdaq.

But this matter definitely could not be handed over to those guys on Wall Street to operate.

That was why Chen Jiajun approached Jordan.

Jordan thought for a moment, then said to Chen Jiajun, "May I know the information about this company?"

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "Of course, I will have someone contact you!"

"Then let's talk after I've finished reading it!" Jordan nodded and began to consider the feasibility of this matter.

At the same time, he was also thinking about how to rake in money from this affair.

After Chen Jiajun and Cao Weicai left Stratton Oakmont, Cao Weicai couldn't help but say, "Damn it, what a villain who has gained power! Look at that face of his!"

Chen Jiajun, however, said indifferently, "Watch him build his high tower, watch him feast his guests, watch his building collapse; there's no need to get angry at a guy who is destined to be unlucky!"

Cao Weicai nodded, "But this guy will probably find a way to profit from it!"

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "This guy is just greedy; if he weren't greedy, I wouldn't dare to cooperate with him! Let him earn this little bit of money; we can rake in much more!"

Cao Weicai suddenly laughed, "Shorting it in advance?"

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "The development of our 7-11 and Netflix requires a large amount of capital!"

"Hehehe, I understand!" Cao Weicai suddenly laughed.

After Xu Jiawei signed a contract with a Wall Street investment firm, he brought his "technology" to the United States.

And he founded a company named "SCAM," the full name of which is (Structural Composite Armor Materials).

But just looking at this word, it means "scam."

This is also one of Xu Jiawei's twisted senses of humor.

After finalizing the details of the cooperation, Xu Jiawei carried out the preliminary marketing work in a high-profile manner.

Even though he had changed locations, Xu Jiawei's marketing work was still done very well, and with the foundation of Shenzhou Technology here, it attracted quite a bit of attention.

And he began to make contact with telecommunications operators in the United States.

This part of the work was done very easily; after all, the investment firms behind him all had, to some extent, partners among the telecommunications operators, so it could be said that he had a green light all the way.

So, after handing these tasks over to his subordinates and those partners on Wall Street, Xu Jiawei sought out Jordan Belfort.

It must be said that no matter which aspect you look at it from, the SCAM company is a company with very high potential.

Jordan Belfort had no reason to refuse. (End of chapter)
