Death Reincarnation Game Chapter 355: Leighton Company
bsp;"I recall who he is, but why is he here? Could it be that Salin has such great influence that he can make a special trip to attend this dinner?"
Su Peng glanced at Lu Kewen, who had become the center of the dinner there, and said to the short white man next to him.
"Haha, don't you know, Kevin Rudd also lives in our community and is our neighbor."
Beside Su Peng, a lady in her thirties wearing a red evening dress came over and said.
Su Peng and the short white man next to him nodded slightly to the lady. Su Peng had just been introduced by Kirk and knew that this lady was the chairman of one of the top medicinal raw material companies in Kirk's circle. Mrs.
"He also lives in our community?"
When Su Peng heard about this community, he was slightly stunned. This is really new news.
"Yes, although Lu Kewen sometimes seems a little headstrong, he is actually a good person. His family and I are neighbors, only 200 meters apart. You also know that the climate here in Canberra can sometimes be... There are some abnormalities. In winter, there will be freezing rain and light snow, and I have seen him clearing snow from his car."
The lady said to Su Peng, then looked around, lowered her voice slightly, and said: "Actually, I still admire Lu Kewen very much. In addition to being a successful politician, he is also a A good father."
"Good father? I think every man here who has children is a good father."
After listening to the lady's words, the little man seemed to think that the lady admired Lu Kewen too much, which was a bit off-putting, so he said to her.
"No, that's not what I meant."
The lady shook her head and whispered: "Actually, I didn't want to say it, but now that I mentioned it..."
"Is there any special story?"
The little white man heard what the lady said. He seemed to be a little interested in gossip, so he leaned over and asked.
"Well, actually you probably don't know that Lu Erkewen has a daughter with a special disease. His daughter suffers from a special congenital disease and cannot do strenuous activities or even laugh loudly. Otherwise, Her bones would... click."
The lady made a broken gesture, and then said: "I have seen his daughter, a blond angel, very cute, but unfortunately, she suffered from this weird disease... Moreover, she The disease seems to be rare among the rare. It cannot be cured through surgery or medication like other patients, so you can only be careful. ”
"Kevin Rudd loves his daughter very much. He takes his daughter out for a walk every day in a wheelchair, and I heard that he originally lived in a better house... Rulkwen inherited it from his father He bought a lot of property, but in order to treat his daughter's illness, he sold his ancestral castle-style mansion. Although the house he lives in now is not bad, it is much worse than their ancient family home."
"So that's it."
The small white man listened. He acted like he suddenly realized something, and then said with a sympathetic face: "So, he is still a qualified father. He should make some sacrifices for his family."
"Yes."
The lady nodded, and finally straightened up her manners, saying: "Of course, I didn't want to talk about other people's private matters originally, but when we talked about it today, I said, I'm not that kind of person. A person who gossips about other people."
"Of course."
Su Peng and the little white man nodded immediately and said to her.
The lady satisfied her interest in spreading gossip, and after saying a few words, she saw the acquaintance who had just arrived, said goodbye to Su Peng and the little white man, and walked over to chat with the acquaintance.
"It seems that gossip is inevitable everywhere in the world...even the future Prime Minister of Australia cannot escape it."
After watching the lady leave and join a new group of people, and then continue to watch what Lu Kewen said, the little man said with emotion.
Su Peng shrugged. There are always people in this world who like to gossip about other people, but that’s fine, it also allowed him to learn more information.
At this moment, Kirk, who had just been pulled over by his friend to chat alone, suddenly came over.
"How's it going? Su, are you still getting used to it? I think you seem to be at ease with this kind of scene." Seeing Su Peng come here, Kirk said to Su Peng with a smile.
Su Peng smiled slightly and said: "It's okay."
"Come on, Su, let me introduce you to some friends."
Kirke greeted Su Peng, and Su Peng nodded. He and the small white man beside him walked into a small circle.
The people in this circle seem to be a bit more advanced than the people Kirk introduced to Su Peng just now. This can be seen from their clothes.
The people Kirk introduced to Su Peng just now were all dressed in suits and ties. Although they looked very formal, they felt somewhat formal. At this time, Kirk introduced Su Peng to Su Peng. Most of the people are wearing casual clothes or other home clothes.
It's not that they can't afford to wear more advanced clothes. On the contrary, each of them has a very relaxed expression on their face.
Su Peng understood after looking at their mental temperament that these are truly powerful people. Only those with real wealth and strength can wear inconspicuous clothes in this dinner party where the participants are all worth a lot of money. It can be so leisurely.
Because of the strength of these people, they no longer need to wear clothing to indicate their strength.
"Su, let me introduce you, this is Justin, this is Hepburn, this is Ahmadinejad, and this is Walter Su, our new neighbor."
Kirke introduced three people to Su Peng, and all three people expressed their friendship to Su Peng, nodded kindly to Su Peng, and extended their hands in turn.
Su Peng also shook hands with the three people, but he found that Hepburn and Ahmadinejad were okay, but the man named Justin seemed a little absent-minded.
However, Su Peng is not so superficial that he thinks that the other party is acting abnormally, so he must despise himself. However, this Justin seems to have a depressed expression on his face.
It was not just Su Peng who discovered this. Kirk also saw that this person seemed to have something on his mind, so he asked: "Justin, my friend. Did something happen to you? Why are you so worried? Exhibition? ”
"Justin's in a little trouble, maybe you can help him, Kirk."
After listening to Kirk's words, the man named Hepburn next to him spoke.
"We are all friends. If you have any questions, you can speak up. What do you think, Justin?"
After Kirk heard this, he immediately said to that Justin.
"Hey. Maybe you can't help much with this matter." Justin said, but he still told the reason.
"The thing is like this, as you know, I have been holding the stocks of several companies for a long time. One of the companies has a big problem. Although the stock has not fallen to the bottom yet, it is not very good. According to my opinion According to internal news, this company may face a break in its capital chain in the near future. In that case, it will be in danger if I don’t sell all my stocks.”
Justin said to Su Peng and others.
"What company's stock? How many do you hold?"
After listening to Justin's words, Kirk pondered for a while and asked Justin.
"It's the stock of Leighton Company. The stock of that company is 98 Australian dollars per share. I hold 1.2 million shares, worth more than 100 million Australian dollars."
Justin said with a frown.
"Leighton Company, is it the Leighton Company that makes arms?"
Listened to what Justin said. Kirk frowned slightly and asked Justin.
Su Peng also moved his eyebrows after hearing this.
He knew Leighton Company, which was Australia's fourth largest arms company. When Su Peng was shopping for guns at a gun store, he had seen their company's Leighton 2000 classic shotgun in the sound field.
Foreign arms companies can be directly listed, and are not as strictly controlled as China. Buying shares of arms companies in foreign countries is not a big deal.
"It's impossible...Leighton Company's performance was very good a few years ago, and the stock price more than doubled...What now..." Kirk touched his chin with his hand, as if he was thinking Thinking, he said thoughtfully.
“Well, Layton Company is actually quite good. A few years ago, they launched several classic weapons, which made their company’s stock price rise... Their company’s stock price was the highest, once rising to 142 Australian dollars. One share."
"But that was a few years ago. I bought the stock of Leighton Company a few years ago when it was near its peak. At that time, I bought 1.3 million shares. It was at 110 I bought it at 8 yuan, and then sold 100,000 shares piecemeal, probably recovering several million Australian dollars."
"I was optimistic about the prospects of this company. I planned to hold the stock for a long time and become a member of the board of directors. I even planned to pass the stock on to my family... But I didn't expect that after 2009, Leighton Company developed several companies in succession. Although this work cannot be said to be a failure, their weapons are very similar to those produced by other companies, and both in terms of cost and actual measurement data, they are completely surpassed by rival companies."
"I highly suspect that this is the leakage of their internal information, but there is no evidence. This company has spent a lot of money on weapons development, and its cash flow is in crisis. In the past few years, it has only relied on its previous Classic design is maintained.”
"Actually, I still have confidence in this company. Layton Company is still strong, but who would have thought...that their cash flow would be so severely damaged."
“I just received the board invitation from Leighton Company to the directors a few days ago. After attending the meeting, I found out that they wanted to raise funds again in the board of directors to help them tide over the difficulties.”
"However, I invested in this company to make money. Although they may continue to be brilliant if they survive the difficulties, the fact is that they have already started to make me lose money."
"What I'm thinking about now is, should I sell the shares of Layton Company, or continue to transfer money from other places to inject capital into Layton Company?"
Justin said with a headache.
He didn't notice that when he said these things, Su Peng's eyes flashed... (To be continued...)
