Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Xiao Cheng, I Want
Chapter 60 -60 Xiao Cheng, I Want
“The interest rate for your external issuances…”
Chen Cheng sat in the general’s chair, looking across the table at Jin Baogen, treating him as the representative for the CGG company negotiations, and said, “5.45%, I personally think…”
Jin Baogen’s face was serious, “No, that energy, it’s not right.”
Chen Cheng fell silent for a moment then changed his tone, “The representative from CGG, regarding your proposition of a 5.45% interest rate for this fund…”
“You’re not holding a big meeting at Wanbao Hall, and the people coming aren’t your employees, there’s no need for you to report to them.” Jin Baogen interrupted Chen Cheng again.
It must be said, for a person to transform their temperament, it takes time.
Especially in fields one is unfamiliar with, or in tasks one has never done before, it is even more so.
Chen Cheng now has wealth but is distinctly lacking a certain temperament.
This visible quality is not about putting on airs, or slamming on the table and scowling, but an aura naturally exuding from their bones.
Jin Baogen neither scolded nor told him outright how he should do it.
He was very clear that this energy could only be mastered by Chen Cheng himself through realization.
Jin Baogen leisurely took out a cigarette, giving ample time to this novice.
Chen Cheng, seeing the expectation in his eyes, remembered the way Jin Baogen treated Xia Yubing and her sister that day, and seemed to have an idea.
At this moment, the person in front of him was no longer the Mr.
Jin who had taken great care of him, but the genuine representative of CGG.
“5.45%?
I could just find any bank, let them do financial management, and wouldn’t have to go through such a big loop, or have this meal with you.”
Jin Baogen’s Dupont lighter hadn’t yet ignited when this unexpected arrow struck him squarely.
“Mr.
Chen, as per the short-term pure debt funds currently circulating in the market, this interest rate was determined after our CGG’s fund department’s research,” Jin Baogen replied.
“Then you can now write a report, and have your headquarters fire the person who set this interest rate.”
A gleam flashed in Jin Baogen’s eyes, “Currently, there’s no shortage of short-term debt on the market, if we don’t raise the interest rate to attract investors, it will be tough to issue this batch of products in the shortest time.”
“I think you’re looking to recoup funds for Beijing Issuance in the shortest time possible, right?”
After Chen Cheng finished speaking, he paused and then asked, “How much rebate did Beijing Issuance give CGG?”
Jin Baogen’s mouth curved into a smile, “Mr.
Chen, our current round of cooperation with Beijing Issuance involves many confidential elements…”
Chen Cheng waved his hand, “Fine, no need to say more.”
“I’ll just tell you,” Chen Cheng presented an option: “You have two paths now.”
“Go ahead.”
“One, sell externally at an interest rate of 3.6%.”
“This will likely be difficult, and the second?”
Chen Cheng leaned back in the chair, his expression casual, “If you can’t do that, there are plenty of people waiting outside this door to take the job.”
In that moment, the cold gaze pressed down on Jin Baogen, who seemed to truly see boundless potential in him.
Knock knock knock.
Three knocks on the door shattered the silence of the study.
Chen Cheng’s eyelids relaxed, and he quickly stood up from the chair, circled around the mahogany desk, and came to Jin Baogen’s side.
“Mr.
Jin, what do you think of how I just did…
Hey!
Was it alright?”
Jin Baogen laughed heartily, “Not bad at all.
With a bit more practice on the eyes, you’ll get the right flair.”
At this moment, Xiao Meier pushed the door and entered, “Mr.
Jin, Xiao Cheng.”
Jin Baogen looked back, “All settled?”
Xiao Meier nodded slightly, and seeing a few beads of sweat on Chen Cheng’s forehead, she asked curiously, “Is it that hot?
What were you doing?”
It was then that Chen Cheng realized his body had reacted.
“Mr.
Chen still needs more practice,” Jin Baogen said with a smile: “When the time comes, you can’t show any signs of weakness!”
“Mr.
Jin, I was just facing you; the sense of pressure was too intense,” Chen Cheng said confidently, “Besides, who dares to look straight into your eyes!”
“Ha ha ha ha…” Jin Baogen patted Chen Cheng on the shoulder.
Xiao Meier stood by listening to their cryptic conversation without probing further.
She pulled out a tissue and wiped the sweat away for him.
Jin Baogen looked at the two of them with satisfaction, “Not bad, not bad.”
He then asked, “What time is it?”
“It’s almost nine o’clock.” Xiao Meier lifted her hand to check her watch.
“There’s still time.” Jin Baogen hurried out, “I’m going out to fly a kite, you two make yourselves comfortable!”
“I’ll see you out!”
Jin Baogen waved his hand, “No need, it’s out of the way, too much trouble.”
Chen Cheng let out a long sigh of relief, looking at Xiao Meier beside him, “Shall we go?”
“Go where?” Xiao Meier smiled sweetly.
Chen Cheng took out the broken gold chain from his pocket, “Let’s get this fixed.”
“You actually brought it?”
“I promised you last night, didn’t I?” Chen Cheng wrapped his arm around her waist and walked towards the door, purposely asking, “Don’t you want it anymore?”
“I do want it!”
Chen Cheng said with a mischievous smile, “Then you have to say, ‘Xiao Cheng, I want it.'”
Xiao Meier smiled and was about to reply “Xiao Cheng…” when she suddenly felt something was off and pinched Chen Cheng’s arm, “Hey!
You little rascal, are you getting too cocky?”
“Ouch, ouch…” Chen Cheng cried out for mercy, “My apologies, Sister Meier!”
Xiao Meier rubbed the spot she had just pinched, a mix of irritation and amusement in her eyes, “Just so you know!”
Chen Cheng’s eyes flickered mischievously, he slapped her curvy behind with a good dose of strength; it was quite bouncy.
He quickly stepped back three or five steps, “You say, where did I, Mr.
Chen, go wrong?!”
Xiao Meier exclaimed “Hmm” from being slapped, “You…”
Chen Cheng stepped out of the study, making a gesture, “Mr.
Jin told me to practice more, you have to cooperate with me.”
Xiao Meier obviously knew that wasn’t what Chen Cheng needed to practice.
She glared at him fiercely, looped her arm through his, and whispered softly, “You just wait for me!”
The two returned to the car, Jin Baogen’s Land Cruiser had already disappeared.
“Xiao Hai, find a jewelry store.” Chen Cheng asked from the backseat, “Have you eaten?”
Chen Donghai was still as taciturn as ever, “I ate already, Mr.
Chen.”
“Good.”
Chen Cheng thought for a moment, “Right, is the hotel still okay?”
“Very comfortable.” Xiao Hai started the car, “Thank you, Mr.
Chen.”
Chen Cheng caught sight of Xiao Meier still pouting, pretending to be angry, and leaned in.
“What are you doing?”
“Come here, I have something to say.”
Xiao Meier turned her body toward him, and Chen Cheng whispered in her ear, “How about we go buy a house?”
“Buy a house?” Xiao Meier’s eyes widened as she asked quietly, “Where’s the money?”
Chen Cheng then remembered that his account was still frozen.
However, the moment the advanced clock on the dashboard pointed to nine o’clock, his display finally refreshed.
[Current funds: 14,785,075.42 Yuan]
[Spending: 637,425/1,000,000]
[Current interest rate: 5.07%]
The two days of suspended interest were finally credited to his account, and Chen Cheng realized that, excluding the 10 million from Jin Baogen on his account, he had less than 5 million left.
“5 million, seems like it might not be enough,” Chen Cheng thought to himself.
Seeing the puzzled look on his face, Xiao Meier leaned her head on his shoulder and hugged his arm, speaking softly, “Xiao Cheng, buying a house is difficult.”
Chen Cheng watched her sideways, mesmerized by her smiling eyes.
“Besides, I’m already very happy now.
Even if I have to squeeze into a tiny attic with you for a lifetime, I’m willing.”
