Chapter 557: 553. Sympathizing with Mu Jinyuan (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)
Zhongqiang Group, one of the top ten super-large groups in Huaxia.
Fenggu Investment Company, not well-known by name, but those who know understand that they have the military as their backing.
Even the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission had sent people.
There were also some other private enterprises, but they were all major companies of note, each possessing a certain degree of influence in society.
Plus their Nianrun Group—what exactly was Zhang Ran trying to do?
The others were also slightly stunned after seeing the other parties; Zhang Ran really hadn't told them much, only inviting them to discuss matters.
This was Zhang Ran's status now!
Judging by the current situation, this Richest Person in China probably couldn't sit still again; it seemed he was about to make some big moves.
A total of eight people came this time, representing eight companies, or one could say, eight factions.
Zhang Ran didn't prepare a lavish banquet; he simply set up a hot pot, and the few of them sat around it and began to eat.
"Mr. Zhang, can you tell us what this is about now?" After eating and drinking a little, the representative from Fenggu began to speak.
The others also looked at Zhang Ran one after another; they hadn't come here just to eat.
Zhang Ran put down his chopsticks and said, "I invited everyone here this time because I want to do business with you all. I wonder if you are interested?"
"What kind of business?" Liu Yiguo asked with a smile; he was the boss of Zhongqiang Group and the person who had single-handedly led Zhongqiang to its current status.
Zhang Ran said, "Does everyone know about Galaxy Capital?"
"Of course we do. What is Mr. Zhang implying?" Liu Yiguo's eyes flickered.
Zhang Ran smiled and said, "Everyone knows my situation, so I won't hide it from you all: Galaxy Capital is also mine, and I want to take it back."
Once these words were spoken, everyone felt a sense of shock in their hearts.
Galaxy Capital!
This capital group that rose in the nineties, although not very large in overall volume and far less powerful than old-school capital like Iron Fir, was not to be underestimated, especially in investments in some emerging industries where they held a significant amount of say.
Furthermore, Galaxy Capital could be considered to have united some of the wealthy figures in Hong Kong, and its strength was not small.
"It seems I still underestimated Mr. Zhang." Liu Yiguo came back to his senses and sighed.
The others were also silent, feeling quite moved in their hearts.
If Zhang Ran hadn't encountered the Goddess of Destiny back then, what kind of situation would it be now?
No one knew!
"Zhang Ran, if we help you, what benefits can we obtain?" Xin Youmin said.
The others came back to their senses one after another and looked at Zhang Ran; this was the most important thing. No matter how much money Zhang Ran had or how he laid out his plans, if he wanted their help, he had to offer benefits.
Zhang Ran said, "Of course there are benefits. When the time comes, I will clear out the other shareholders of Galaxy Capital and leave enough shares for you all to buy in."
Zhang Ran's words stunned these people, and then Liu Yiguo frowned and said, "Mr. Zhang, I believe you certainly have your confidence, but clearing out these shareholders? I think that would be very difficult, right?"
"Besides, although Mu Jinyuan is still the major shareholder now, he doesn't have absolute control over Galaxy Capital. Even if you were to replace Mu Jinyuan at that time, you wouldn't be able to do anything to the other shareholders, would you?"
Zhang Ran smiled and said, "Don't worry about that, Brother Liu. Since I've stated this plan, I have the certainty to see it through."
"Can you tell us about it?" Liu Yiguo wouldn't just believe Zhang Ran's words like that; he wasn't that foolish.
Zhang Ran looked at the others and said, "Since I've brought everyone together this time, I will reveal my trump cards. However, please don't spread this matter around; after all, it wouldn't be good, and it also serves as a mutual witness."
"Rest assured, as long as what you say is true and you have the certainty to accomplish this, then no one will talk. Take me for example: once I choose to notify Mu Jinyuan's side, I probably won't be able to keep my position, and I would be implicated later," Xin Youmin said straightforwardly.
He was warning the other two who were like him; Zhang Ran wasn't without connections at the top.
As for private enterprises like Zhongqiang Group, they needed to consider whether they could withstand Zhang Ran's fury.
Zhang Ran's temper could be fully seen from these events; if you leaked this out, Zhang Ran would definitely keep an eye on you afterward.
And no one knew if Zhang Ran had other layouts that he just hadn't utilized yet.
Just as far as they knew, Zhang Ran had very strong connections in Russia; if they angered Zhang Ran, some of their companies' assets in Russia might be affected.
Or take Prince Haiman, for example?
Zhang Ran also trusted these people, otherwise he wouldn't have invited them over.
"Galaxy Capital shareholder Qiu Qianyang is my person," Zhang Ran said simply.
The crowd was stunned once again. Qiu Qianyang was Zhang Ran's person?
They all knew that a while ago, Zhang Ran and Qiu Qianyang had a conflict, and at the time, there was a ten-billion-dollar bet.
Now he was telling them that Qiu Qianyang was his person?
This was something they couldn't accept for a moment.
Then they thought of the seven billion that Mu Jinyuan had lost!
For a moment, they didn't know what to feel; had the two of them teamed up to scam him?
"Mr. Zhang... you really are unexpected." Liu Yiguo didn't know what to say.
He suddenly felt a bit of sympathy for Mu Jinyuan.
Betrayed by a teammate without even knowing it, and having paid a significant price for it—not just the money lost, but also the shares and the say he gave up at Galaxy Capital.
If he had encountered such a thing himself, he would probably have felt like dying; this was truly being sold by someone and then helping them count the money.
After a long while, the person from Fenggu said, "But this is still not enough. It is very difficult to clear out these shareholders."
The others nodded one after another; it was indeed not enough.
"Everyone need not worry about this matter. I believe that in the end, Mu Jinyuan will do it for us; I won't need to do it myself," Zhang Ran said with a smile.
Now the crowd was confused; what was going on here?
"Mr. Zhang, what do you mean?" Liu Yiguo asked.
Zhang Ran said with a calm expression, "Mu Jinyuan is just holding on for dear life now. Once he loses, he will have to do this."
"The reason?"
"There is no reason, it's just a necessity." Of course, Zhang Ran wouldn't reveal everything, and some things could only be understood, not spoken of.
Liu Yiguo frowned and said, "But Mr. Zhang, this way we have no way to..."
Zhang Ran interrupted his words, saying, "If there were a one hundred percent success rate, why would I be looking for you?"
His words were very blunt and also very impolite, but they were the facts; if it were certain that these things could be done without the slightest risk, then why would Zhang Ran be looking for them? To act as a wealth-scattering boy?
