Vol 2 Chapter 816: When I escort!

Chapter 816

When I escort!

Under the arrangement of Wang Meng and others, Kevin Mitnick secretly left Shanghai and went to the overseas African headquarters of the South African "Spike" security company. But before leaving, Kevin Mitnick repeatedly pleaded with Lin Feng to launch a commercial satellite, and paid Lin Feng the cost of launching a satellite.

For this request of Kevin Mitnick, Lin Feng was a little bit dumbfounded. He didn't expect Kevin Mitnick to be so persistent. After Kevin Mitnick left, Lin Feng called out the international standard quotations for commercial satellites that Kevin Mitnick had collected from the Internet.

Generally speaking, according to the internationally accepted algorithm, the cost of satellite manufacturing is about 120 million U.S. dollars for each launch of a satellite; the cost of rockets is about 25% of the cost of satellites, about 30 million U.S. dollars; the cost of launching is also 25% of the satellite land, which is 0.3 100 million U.S. dollars; insurance premiums are about 20% of the top three areas, 36 million U.S. dollars, a total of about 216 million U.S. dollars. The profit ratio between satellite manufacturing, launching and application is roughly 2:1:7.

At present, the only countries that can launch satellites are the United States, Japan, China, Australia, Russia, and European aviation (not to mention Britain and France, they belong to the European Union). However, China has not yet opened up commercial satellite launch permissions. According to the recommendations left by Kevin Mitnick, mainly the United States and Russia, the technology and cost of these two countries are relatively affordable. Especially in Russia, where the economy is not good at all, helping to launch satellites is not only cheaper than the United States, but the quality is also more assured. After all, it was the first country (the former Soviet Union) to successfully launch a satellite.

"Boss, does our company really buy an artificial satellite?" Wu Zhaopu also read Kevin Mitnick's proposal, and he was also quite surprised. At this stage, launching an artificial satellite is of no use to the "Second World." Of course, it will be useful in the future. With the development of the world’s communication technology and the expansion of the “second world” business, having a satellite of its own will provide absolute guarantee in terms of communication quality and safety. At the same time, the “second world” The adoption of the "parallel sharing connection mode" is also helpful, allowing data to be transferred between continents more expressly.

However, at present, the "Second World" is not needed for the time being, and there is no funding of hundreds of millions of dollars to launch a satellite. Although the "Second World" account still has 800 million U.S. dollars in circulating funds, there are currently many projects in the "Second World" that require funds, and it is very dangerous for a large multinational company to have only 800 million U.S. dollars in circulating funds, especially There are departments such as "amd" and "ati", which are all departments that require a large amount of liquidity guarantee. Otherwise, if something happens and there is no liquidity to deal with it, the company will be in danger!

Your own satellite, the "Second World" needs it, but not now!

Lin Feng naturally knew Wu Zhaopu's thoughts. However, "Second World" currently does not need it, which does not mean that I do not need it. His own company, as Kevin Mitnick said, is extremely needed. As far as your own TV station is concerned, once you own a satellite, you will be able to master more TV media resources, and you can broadcast your own TV station's programs globally through satellites. For its own "Phantom Technology", after having a satellite, it can completely undertake the communication business market of some third world developing countries, especially some poor countries in Africa, where many of their communication markets are blank. Lin Feng can "grab" it. Although there is not much profit, it can get involved in other industries in these developing countries. Especially those small African countries that have been war-torn throughout the year and are extremely poor.

Of course, for Kevin Mitnick himself, having an exclusive satellite for him to use, that will be a milestone for his "hacker" career, and he will be able to get more through it. Internet control.

What's more, for the "Langya" security company, having a satellite will have an exclusive encrypted communication channel, and in Africa, a continent that is constantly under war, it will have more rights to speak and protect lives.

At the same time, Lin Feng also thought of having his own satellite, he could completely withdraw from "Baidu Earth". You know, when Google launched "Google Earth" in 2005, it caused quite a stir. The emergence of "Google Earth" allows all netizens to visit the world without leaving their homes. Go up to space roaming, go down to a glance at the neighbors, enter the destination, you can zoom in directly, whether it is a school, a restaurant, or a place of interest, you can instantly appear before you. And more importantly, it satisfies the human nature's natural prying * kind*.

If its own "Baidu" can take the lead in launching "Baidu Earth", it will play a decisive role in "Baidu"'s global foothold. What's more, this "Baidu Earth" can also bring huge profits to "Baidu". Lin Feng remembered that after the launch of "Google Earth" to great acclaim, its charging model also brought amazing profits to "Google".

Video film generation module 200 US dollars/year (the generated video format is wmv); high-precision printing module 200 US dollars/year (supports 11'x17' (inch) printing resolution); gis data import module 200 US dollars/year (with The imported gis data in shp and tab format are merged;); gdt traffic measurement data is 200 USD/year (the traffic measurement statistics function is added from gdt); nrb business center data is 200 USD/year.

Thinking that these will soon become his own money-making projects and bring hundreds of millions of dollars in income every year, Lin Feng instinctively swallowed his mouth.

"Mr. Wu, I am going to buy a satellite, but it is not the company that buys it, but I personally buy it!" Lin Feng said categorically.

Wu Zhaopu was taken aback, and he really didn't know what to say about Lin Feng's decision. Now Lin Feng's personal liquidity exceeds the liquidity of most listed companies in the world, so buying a satellite for hundreds of millions of dollars is really fun. However, the rich people buy villas and yachts, but they are the boss and buy private satellites.

Bull, really bullish!

Later, Lin Feng approached Wang Meng and discussed with him the purpose and precautions for purchasing a private satellite. Regarding Lin Feng's plan to purchase a private satellite and provide it to the "Langya" security company, Wang Meng listened to it, and only excited it all over his body. Now the "Langya" security company has just entered South Africa and its footing is not stable, but in Africa is a turbulent continent where life and safety is extremely seriously threatened. If there is a satellite in the sky at any time, the soldiers of the "Langya" security company His life will be guaranteed the most. Wang Meng had also thought about satellites, but the "Langya" security company was too poor. When it was established, it was not for making money. Therefore, the money earned was not subsidized to Lin Feng’s private security system, or all was sent to it. All the security personnel are there, so I can only think about satellites that cost hundreds of millions of dollars apiece.

"Lin Feng, thank you for those brothers!" Wang Meng patted Lin Feng on the shoulder heavily.

"Brother Meng, why do you say thank you? I also have half of the shares in this company. Besides, I am also very pleased that everyone's lives can be protected." Lin Feng said with a smile, and then thought of Kevin Mitnick. There can be no damage, "Brother Meng, regarding Kevin's safety, I really leave it to you."

"Boss, rest assured, as long as he is in South Africa, his safety must be no problem. Our people will protect him 24 hours a day." Wang Meng nodded his head heavily. When it comes to security, he will never be sloppy.

Lin Feng nodded.

"By the way, when you let the company's people perform tasks in Africa, they should also pay attention to resources such as minerals. If there are, no matter how far away, whether they are open to traffic, let me know first." Lin Feng remembered Abby Cohen's words—— The lifeblood of this world is in the hands of consortia that hold large amounts of energy, minerals and other real estate. Want to set up a consortium, without these real estate, this consortium is like a castle in the sky, flashy.

Wang Meng responded. There are too many mineral resources in Africa. If you want to have them, you must have the ability to develop them. Of course, this development is not only technical, but also military. There are a lot of minerals that have been developed, but the resources cannot be shipped. The fighting is too frequent. There is no other way except for the use of a large number of troops. But for those big countries in the United States, if they send thousands of troops just for one or two small mines, the profits won are not enough for military expenditures. Therefore, there are a large number of small pen mineral sources or hidden mineral veins on the African continent. Only wait for the truly powerful people or countries to mine!

Now that Lin Feng said it, he ordered people to pay attention.

At this time, Abby Cohen found Lin Feng.

"Lin, regarding the establishment of a consortium, we must first buy a bank and hold a controlling stake in order to resist financial risks. At the same time, we can also use the bank to raise funds to help companies under the consortium allocate funds." Abby Cohen said.

Lin Feng nodded. This is the plan that Abby Cohen's investment team has been carrying out in secret.

"Now I have selected three banks. They are all banks that can be acquired. Take a look." Abby Cohen put the collected information in front of Lin Feng.

Lin Feng looked around. The first bank Abby Cohen recommended was Standard Chartered Bank in the United Kingdom, which is headquartered in London and has been in operation for more than 150 years. The key real point is that the two largest shareholders of Standard Chartered Bank are Chinese-Bao Yugang (14.5%) and Qiu Deba (14.99%).

"Lin, Standard Chartered Bank is not only a veteran bank, but also has the right to issue Hong Kong dollars. If you can acquire this bank, it will be of great help to your consortium. In Hong Kong, you are no longer an outsider, but a Enough to influence the oligarchs in Hong Kong's financial industry." Abby Cohen said.

Lin Feng's heart moved after hearing that if he could successfully acquire Standard Chartered Bank, it would be a very wonderful thing. However, Lin Feng continued to look down and wanted to see what the other two banks were.

auzw.com The second bank recommended by Abby Cohen is the Standard Bank of South Africa. Unlike Standard Chartered Bank, Standard Bank of South Africa has only been established for 41 years, and its business is mainly in Africa. However, compared to other banks, Standard Bank of South Africa is relatively less difficult to acquire. Moreover, if the acquisition of Standard Bank of South Africa to cooperate with the South African government will not only help the development of Linfeng’s business, but also an opportunity for the "Langya" security company to gain a foothold in South Africa.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng's heart moved.

As for the third bank recommended by Abby Cohen, it is a private commercial bank from the United States-California National Bank. California National Bank is the fourth largest bank in Los Angeles with assets of around US$5 billion. Compared to the banking industry, it can be described as an extremely small bank. However, the reason Abby Cohen recommended is that he owns some minerals and railway operating rights in Brazil and Colombia. Although the shares are very small, these are available to Lin Feng. Moreover, the acquisition of a U.S. bank will be more convenient in terms of future financing.

"Lin, these three banks have their pros and cons. The best is to buy Standard Chartered Bank, followed by Standard Bank of South Africa, and finally California National Bank. The three banks have their pros and cons, you can think about it." Abby Cohen analyzed.

Lin Feng took a closer look and found that the most ideal is naturally to acquire Standard Chartered Bank, which is an old British bank and holds the right to issue Hong Kong dollars, which is very tempting. However, it may not be an easy task to buy shares in Standard Chartered from the late "Ship King" Bao Yugang and Singapore's richest man Qiu Deba. But you can try it!

After thinking about it, Lin Feng had an idea.

"Abby, I'm going to talk to Bao Yugang's four daughters to see if I can buy their shares, and then I will talk to Qiu Deba again. At the same time, Abby, you should also contact South African Standard Bank. , Talk about financing. As for California National Bank, I will talk about it last." Lin Feng planned everything in a short time.

Abby Cohen nodded. If possible, it is best to acquire two banks-Standard Chartered Bank and Standard Bank of South Africa. In this way, Lin Feng will truly enter the financial center of this world and become a game rule maker in the world financial game. And not just the world's richest man who is now empty and famous!

"Well, by the way, Lin and Bao Yugang have four daughters in total. Among them, the third daughter, cissy, Bao Peili, is in Shanghai. She is very low-key. I have been accidentally learning about her whereabouts while drinking tea with a friend." Abby Cohen reminded.

Since the death of World Ship King Bao Yugang, all his private property has been held by his four daughters. In the early years, the shipping company of the shipping king family was handed over to the eldest daughter to accompany Qing and son-in-law Su Haiwen in Hong Kong; the second daughter to accompany the Rong family to be in charge of the Wharf Group; son-in-law Wu Guangzheng is now the chairman of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council; the youngest daughter Bao Peihui The family controls more than $1 billion in family assets investment. Only this third daughter, Bao Peili, came to Shanghai alone. After acquiring more than 10 villas in the garden in the 1990s, she lived on her rent and developed the real estate business alone.

Lin Feng now happens to use her to find out which daughter Bao Yugang once held 14.5% of the shares in Standard Chartered Bank. However, according to Abby Cohen’s analysis, according to Bao Yugang’s unbiased personality, the other three daughters have huge wealth. Only this third daughter, Bao Peili, is almost penniless. Standard Chartered has a 14.5% stake. It might be in her hands. If it's really in Bao Peili's hands, it would be easy, and Lin Feng doesn't have to rush to Hong Kong to meet Bao Yugang's descendants. And in Shanghai, with Lin Feng's current status, there may be areas where Bao Peili needs help.

But now the two of them don't know each other, and there is no middleman to introduce them. It's a bit troublesome to make friends. Regardless of the status of the world's richest man now, for this type of strong woman who abandons the status of a rich daughter and works alone, it may not be a good thing to rush to visit.

While hesitating, Abby Cohen suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, she now has a daughter whose name is not so good, but I heard it is a fan of your girlfriend Avril. Maybe you can... take advantage of it." Abby Cohen said.

The reason why Abby Cohen and her friend talked about Bao Peili was also an accidental talk about Lin Feng's girlfriend Avril. As a result, Abby Cohen’s friends mentioned that Bao Peili’s daughter was also a fan of Avril Lavigne. When Avril Lavigne came to Shanghai for a concert last time, it was hard to get a ticket due to too many fans. Bao Peili, who received strict tutoring since she was a child, watched the tickets sold out. Although there were still high prices for the scalper party, Bao Peili’s daughter did not have the money to buy them, and Bao Peili would not allow her daughter multiple times. The price is to buy a concert ticket, because the price is too low. In the end, Bao Peili's daughter could only regret to miss Avril Lavigne's concert in Shanghai.

Lin Feng was taken aback for a while, but he didn't expect it to be related to Avril Lavigne again. This little punk princess has helped herself solve business troubles several times. However, Lin Feng still had to plan how to work in the middle.

But first, get Avril Lavigne.

"Hi, Avril Lavigne, what are you doing?" Lin Feng called immediately.

"Hmph, hum, you still know that you care about me, I thought you had forgotten me, and you kissed me and me all day long with your friends!" Avril Lavigne heard Lin Feng's call, she was happy, and then her mouth murmured. With a snort, Lin Feng began to count.

During this period of time, Lin Feng was busy with virtual life and the acquisition of players at Tottenham Hotspur before, and sometimes did not contact Avril Lavigne for several days in excitement. This made Avril Lavigne complain. No, this time there was no contact for three days. I received a call from Lin Feng today, and it was 1 o’clock in the night (US time). Obviously Lin Feng didn’t take her to heart. It should be US daytime instead of Shanghai daytime to call her, so this is a punk kid. The princess's temper broke out completely.

"Are you still my boyfriend? It's been a long time since I called me. Humph, what is the difference between having a boyfriend and not having a boyfriend. And if you throw your broken company at me, you just don’t care. I’m so busy here. I don’t have a penny of wages. I don’t want to work for you for nothing. You have to divide the money I make from records. You are too smart! I'm going to the Federal Court to sue you, I want to sue You deceived money and sex! You deceived my pure mind and body, and also tricked me into doing vain work for you, making money for you, and also for you..." Avril Lavigne counted on endlessly, venting all the recent depression to Lin Feng. . Moreover, her big voice, carefree personality, and her open mouth made Lin Feng feel ashamed.

"Punch", Abby Cohen on the side heard through Avril's loud voice, and wanted to hold it back so as not to embarrass Lin Feng, but Avril was so funny that she could dare to say anything, which made her bear it. Can't help. Especially Lin Feng's embarrassed expression, and think of Lin Feng's current identity, this is really too coke! With Lin Feng's current identity, I am afraid that only this Avril Lavigne would dare to tell Lin Feng face to face.

This is really one thing for one thing! ——Abby Cohen sighs.

Lin Feng was even more embarrassed when he heard about Abby Cohen's laughter. Frowning, enduring Avril's complaint, glanced at Abby Cohen, who was grinning, and stared fiercely.

Abby Cohen hopes to be even more happy. But she also knew that she was going to stay here again, I'm afraid Lin Feng would become angry from embarrassment. At that time, I am afraid that there will be a lot of trouble invisibly.

"Uh, Lin, my daughter seems to be leaving school, I will pick her up." Abby Cohen looked at his watch and walked out immediately.

Lin Feng was speechless. This excuse is too bad. It's 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and Abby Cohen's daughter is in class. But it's fine to leave, otherwise Avril scolds in her voice and everyone knows her embarrassment. Fortunately, Avril Lavigne hasn't mentioned about "singing" at night, otherwise she would be really embarrassed.

But at this time, how to deal with the situation is endless, complaining about Avril Lavigne is a troublesome thing.

"Avril Lavigne, I miss you so much, come to Shanghai!" Lin Feng thought for a while, come straight to the point, cut off the water with a knife, and directly interrupted Avril's complaint.

"Do you really miss me?" Avril was taken aback, and when she heard this, she felt happy in her heart.

"Of course, I really miss you. Otherwise, why would I call you now. It's 1:00 AM US time now. By the way, Avril Lavigne, why haven't you slept at 1:00 AM!" Lin Feng asked concerned.

"Hmph, you still know that you care about people. Well, since you miss this lady so much and sincerely, that lady will" Avril Lavigne raised her voice, and in Lin Feng's expectation, she poured a basin of cold water on her head. "Don't go!"

Lin Feng was speechless.

"Hmph, ask me why I didn’t come. Are you an **** as this lady? Come if you want me to come and leave if you want me. Hmph, it’s not that easy. According to your custom, it must be something that wants me Help, hum, I'm not so stupid. You want me to come, yes, come to pick me up in person, and in front of the public, say love me loudly!" After speaking, Avril hung up the phone with a "pop".

Hearing the blind tone on the other end of the phone, Lin Feng was completely speechless.
