I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property

Now, Tengxun's total market value exceeds 4 trillion Huaxia currency. Although Ma Hua only holds about 10% of Tengxun's shares, that's still 400 billion Huaxia currency. How many companies in the world can come up with 400 billion Huaxia currency in capital? Individuals? That's even more like a fairy tale.

"Young man, do you know how much my Tengxun shares are worth?"

"I do," Zhang Menglong said airily, "it's probably just several hundred billion Huaxia currency, quite a lot indeed."

"Quite a lot?" Ma Hua repeated Zhang Menglong's words—400 billion, and just a casual "quite a lot" to gloss over it?

"How about this, if Mr. Ma is willing, I'd like to buy all the shares you hold at a 20% premium over the stock market price. I wonder if you'd be interested."

"Are you joking?"

"What about 30%?" Zhang Menglong casually added another 10%.

"It's not... what I mean is..."

"Then 40%, no more!" Zhang Menglong declared, "When I acquired Weibo, there was this old Russian who wanted to bite off more than he could chew, asking for a 100% premium over the stock market price to sell that portion of shares. Mr. Ma, you shouldn't emulate such people."

"Are you talking about Kamolov Venture Capital's Chavy?"

"You know him?"

"More than that, I've dealt with him several times," Ma Hua said helplessly, "Our company had plans to acquire Weibo a couple of years ago, but that bastard actually wanted a 50% premium, simply extortionate!"

"Damn, what the hell? He only wants 50% from you guys, but 100% from me? Looks down on me?" Zhang Menglong suddenly felt he had been too lenient in punishing him.

"How exactly did you manage to get those shares from him?" Ma Hua asked curiously. Based on his understanding of Chavy, he was a pure businessman dedicated only to benefits. Without meeting his price, there was no way he would budge."

"There was no particular tactic. The parent company behind Kamolov Venture Capital is mine. I just transferred him to the head office to work as a janitor, and the rest was easy."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Their parent company is yours?"

"Yes." Zhang Menglong replied.

"That Okaido Group?"

"Right, you seem to know quite a bit, Mr. Ma!" Zhang Menglong complimented.

"I am a businessman!" Ma Hua stated earnestly. The Okaido Group was worth over 400 billion US dollars, as grand as their Tengxun and not a bit weaker. This group, it's Zhang Menglong's?

Now Ma Hua seemed to know why Zhang Menglong could so effortlessly acquire Weibo. The Unicorn Group was his, the Okaido Group was his—who dared to say that these two companies were the only ones under Zhang Menglong's control?

"Where on earth did this kid spring from?" Ma Hua racked his brain thinking if there was any notable person surnamed Zhang, but try as he might, he couldn't match anyone to Zhang Menglong.

Logically speaking, if there really was such a remarkable person in the country, he, Ma Teng, should not have been oblivious to any news about him.

"Could it be that I'm out of the loop?" Ma Hua fell into deep thought.

"Mr. Ma, back to the main topic, are you selling the shares or not?"

"I..." Having lorded over the internet industry in Huaxia and commanded respect in Feng Yun for so many years, this was the first time Ma Hua had ever encountered someone pestering him to sell his own shares.

"Wait, you're buying my shares just to block your friend's news?" Ma Hua sought confirmation.

Spending hundreds of billions of Huaxia currency to acquire a company's shares just to hide information for a girl, does this person have a problem with their brain or just too much money with nowhere to spend it?

"This..." Zhang Menglong hesitated for a moment, "Half and half, I guess. The other half I just get angry about. I've been playing your Tengxun games for over a decade, and with all those 10% chance lotteries, I've never won once. You guys must have rigged something, right? Once I acquire Tengxun, I'm going to fire every single person involved in game numerical planning!"

Ma Hua's mouth twitched. What sort of mighty reasoning was this? You're spending hundreds of billions, and you could just top up any game you want, 648 after 648, what item can't you get? Why would you use tens of thousands times the cost to acquire a company? Are you sick?

"Look, even if you buy all the shares I hold, you still can't become the chairman of Tengxun!" Ma Hua seemed to believe that Zhang Menglong truly had the ability to acquire part of his shares, but to become the chairman, you need to have 51% of the shares, which would cost 2 trillion Huaxia currency. Converted into US dollars, that's 300 billion US dollars!

Even the current richest man in the world only has a personal wealth of 150 billion US dollars. Could he be richer than the world's richest man?

"Zhang Menglong? Zhang Menglong?" Just then, the voice on the phone suddenly stopped.

"Sorry, I just went to make a financial transaction. Mr. Ma, you should be receiving a call shortly."

True to Zhang Menglong's words, no sooner had he finished speaking than Ma Hua's phone rang. It was a very special number, one that only a certain team knew about—the team responsible for handling his personal assets and accounts!

"Ma... Mr. Ma..."

"What is it? Stop mumbling. I have an urgent matter, so speak quickly!"

"We have just received a message from a Swiss Bank to one of your accounts. A sum of 500 billion US dollars is going to be deposited into your account. But you don't have any accounts with the Swiss Bank, and it will be quite troublesome to transfer it directly to a Huaxia bank, so they are asking if you want to open an account with them."

"Smash!" The phone in Ma Hua's hand was instantly crushed on the ground, shattering the screen.

He picked up his phone incredulously, still on the line with Zhang Menglong, "This 500 billion US dollars... you transferred this?"

"Otherwise?" Zhang Menglong retorted, "But I didn't plan to give it to you yet. I'm just letting you know that I, Zhang Menglong, can fork out the money!"

"I... damn it..." Ma Hua, who had always been very mindful of his composure, couldn't help but curse out loud. What world's richest man? In front of Zhang Menglong, the world's richest man was just a pauper!

"Let's do this, Mr. Ma. If you do not want to sell the shares, it's okay. But as I said on Weibo, I hope that within two hours, I can see Tengxun do what I want them to do. Otherwise, I might have to think of other methods."

"Alright, you go ahead, I'm going to call Li Hong of Baidu now. By the way, what is his bank account number? I'll transfer some money to him first to save us the half-day hassle of talking later."

...

It took a few minutes for Ma Hua to recover from the deep shock. The fund from Zhang Menglong had already been withdrawn, but those few minutes of interaction had left a deep shadow in his heart.

Soon, Li Hong's phone rang again.

"Old Ma, did you also get his call?"

"Yes, and you?"

"Just finished with him. Boy, a direct transfer of 500 billion US dollars, just like that. I've been in this business for so many years, confident that I could keep my composure even if Mount Tai crumbled in front of me, but my hands are still shaking."

"Who's telling me? " Ma Hua glanced at his own hands, still trembling continuously.

"What should we do?"

"What else can we do? We need to have a meeting right away, to remove any information we can and block what we can't!"

"Sigh... That's all we can do for now. Who would have thought we could be knocked down by a young guy with money..."
