Chapter 909: 905. Send the Items Over (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)
After sending Aosituo away, Zhang Ran said to Yin Long, "Go and check which of our company's recent businesses can cooperate with the Swiss Bank here."
"Hmm?" Yin Long looked at Zhang Ran with some confusion; didn't he just say they would wait until the items were recovered before talking?
Why talk about cooperation now?
Moreover, from what he heard from Zhang Ran earlier, he didn't seem particularly interested; how did he change his mind so quickly?
Zhang Ran saw his confusion and said with a smile, "We still need to cooperate with them, otherwise they will have us by the throat."
At this, Yin Long seemed to understand, "Brother Zhang, what do you mean?"
"That's right. Once they enter the Southern Bank, they will definitely cause trouble for me. Although I am not afraid of them, there is no need to increase the difficulty for myself at this time. Our main target is still the Rhode Family," Zhang Ran said.
He could certainly understand the intentions of Luode Xiongmei in doing this, so this time he also had to pay something.
Of course, Zhang Ran would certainly not give benefits for no reason, but would choose genuine cooperation.
By that time, the Swiss Bank would definitely not dare to make a move against him again, let alone come to cause him trouble.
In this way, the plans of Luode Xiongmei would fall through.
"Then why did you say earlier that you wanted to wait for them to deliver the items before discussing these matters?" Yin Long asked.
Zhang Ran laughed: "Believe it or not, in less than a week, they will deliver the items to me exactly as they are, and I can even have them sent to Huaxia."
The reason Zhang Ran stayed here before was because it was not easy to bring them back to the country at that time; it simply wasn't allowed.
"Understood, I will go handle it right away," Yin Long said immediately.
"Hmm, it's not that urgent. Take your time talking to them when the time comes, and find the most suitable projects for cooperation. Remember, we are cooperating, not giving them benefits," Zhang Ran said.
Yin Long nodded.
Immediately after, Zhang Ran stopped worrying about these matters. After this incident, he had to return to the country, and at the same time, he needed to deal with the aftermath of this event.
To say nothing else, the matter of the Southern Bank this time also required giving an explanation to the likes of Zhongqiang Group.
After all, Zhang Ran had promised them before, and they had provided quite a bit of help.
And since the Rhode Family had withdrawn, Zhang Ran didn't need to keep holding onto this position; he still had to give some benefits to Zhongqiang Group and the others.
Of course, Zhang Ran was still their leader at the Southern Bank; this point was beyond doubt and would not change.
Without Zhang Ran, even if they had these shares, they wouldn't be able to achieve what Zhang Ran had.
It would even be difficult for them to truly integrate into it.
Zhang Ran doing this was, firstly, to fulfill his promise, and secondly, to recruit some partners for himself.
Zhongqiang Group and the others were all his powerful partners, and they could provide help in some future businesses.
And this time, Zhang Ran had also achieved significant results.
At the very least, the first point was that he had exhausted most of the Rhode Family's cash flow. This point was very important, especially for his future actions.
The second point was that he had once again made a name for himself in Europe and America. This point was also very important.
Fame is a very useful thing at times; at the very least, now if someone wants to go against Zhang Ran, they have to think carefully.
This would invisibly reduce a lot of trouble for Zhang Ran.
For the next two days, Zhang Ran and Huo Zhiyuan toured Switzerland properly. Zhang Ran didn't deal with any more matters and completely relaxed himself.
Eating, drinking, playing, and having fun, his mood also improved a lot.
It must be said that the scenery in Switzerland was still very good, and the air quality was also very good. The air here was very clear, which made even Zhang Ran have to admire it.
However, no matter how good it was, this was not his hometown, so Zhang Ran did not linger for long and left Switzerland on the third day after resolving the matter.
Now he was going back to the country. As for the matter of the Rhode Family, it needed to be put aside for a while.
Pushing too hard was not good; it was easy to make them develop a "burn the boats" mentality.
Moreover, Zhang Ran would not let them finish so easily. Such time was actually a kind of torture for the Rhode Family.
Don't look at how Zhang Ran was all smiles when facing Luode Xiongmei, as if he wasn't very angry.
But Zhang Ran would absolutely not let them have an easy time; these were also the two people Zhang Ran hated the most.
For the current Zhang Ran, cheating money or whatever was easy to talk about, after all, he didn't lack money, but betraying him by exploiting his friendship was something Zhang Ran would not let go of.
The reason Zhang Ran left so hurriedly actually had another reason, which was that he received news that the Swiss Bank had reached an agreement with the buyer of the three paintings.
Although Zhang Ran didn't know what price the Swiss Bank paid to convince the buyer so quickly, the cost was likely not small.
After all, those who could afford these three paintings were not people who lacked money; they definitely had requirements in other aspects.
Zhang Ran still wanted the Swiss Bank to help send the items to Huaxia, so how could he accept them here?
Sure enough, when Zhang Ran arrived at Modu Jichang, just after getting off the plane, Aosituo's call came.
"Mr. Zhang, I have already retrieved the items for you. When would you like to come and pick them up?" Aosituo said, clearly he also knew the news of Zhang Ran's departure.
Zhang Ran slapped his forehead and said with some regret: "Mr. Aosituo, I am truly sorry, I have just returned to the country."
"Then you can have someone..." Aosituo subconsciously wanted Zhang Ran to send someone over; he didn't know that Zhang Ran was actually planning to have him send them to Huaxia.
"Ahem, Mr. Aosituo, as the saying goes, one matter should not trouble two masters. How about this, you find someone to send the items to me. I won't even inspect them; I still trust the reputation of the Swiss Bank," Zhang Ran said with a chuckle.
"Mr. Zhang, what kind of joke are you making?" Aosituo was stunned; he never expected that the other side was actually planning this.
You must know that not only does Huaxia have cultural relic protection measures, but countries in Europe and America also have similar regulations.
These three paintings are all world-famous paintings. Although they don't reach the level of the most famous ones, they are still renowned existences, and one of them even has some relatively profound significance.
Now Zhang Ran actually wanted him to help send them to Huaxia?
This was simply making things difficult for him.
But before he could finish, Zhang Ran said with a smile: "Mr. Aosituo, I have already had some cooperation projects prepared. It just so happens that you are coming over this time, so we can take the opportunity to discuss them."
