Rebirth: Super Banking System

Chapter 2298: Chapter 2118: The ‘Credit Limit Boost’ Plan

Africa.

West.

Republic of Mali.

Capital.

A meeting.

It’s being held at the headquarters of the country’s third largest telecom operator, a state-owned operator in Mali, heavily pressured by foreign operators.

Today.

The main topic isn’t complicated—whether to make a large-scale purchase of 4G equipment.

“Buy!”

“Are you footing the bill?”

“But if we don’t move forward, we might as well shut down. Rather than being forced to sell in the end, we should take a risk instead of this.”

“What about the money?”

“…”

The two sides argued, the main issue being money. Such a large-scale equipment update requires a significant amount, necessitating caution.

Previously.

There have been many arguments.

No results.

Now it’s being brought to the table again, which is not surprising, but this time it’s different. The new leader sitting in the seat of honor listens with narrowed eyes as they argue.

Finally.

“Bang!”

The man made a decisive decision.

“Buy!”

“Ah?”

Many people were taken aback by the straightforwardness. Though aware that you’re a new official, some consideration for our actual situation would be necessary. Certainly, a loan would be needed to buy.

But.

Who do we borrow from?

Our own country?

Cut!

That would involve using foreign exchange reserves, and the likelihood of approval is too low. As for seeking foreign loans, such as from Europe, it’s even less likely since they wouldn’t approve.

After all.

The first and second largest telecom companies in Mali are European enterprises. Getting a loan means direct competition with them, which would be prevented.

“Where will the money come from?” The core question was posed.

Hearing this.

The new leader smiled.

“Borrow.”

“From whom?”

“Myanmar.”

“What?”

Then.

He elaborated:

“Myanmar Bank Group has a branch in Africa, and our country also has one. Furthermore, besides Europe and America, there’s also Huaxia for 4G equipment.”

“That enterprise, Myanmar Bank Group holds half of the shares, so buying Huaxia’s 4G equipment is a beneficial thing for it.”

“Thus.”

“The likelihood of approval is high.”

Hearing this.

Everyone was stunned.

Ah!

It seems so. Because of being close to Europe, they initially thought about buying European and American 4G equipment. Now, hearing about buying Huaxia’s.

So.

There’s indeed a bit of room for maneuver.

“Any other questions?”

“…”

No one dared to say there were.

After all.

There’s no better plan than this. If money can resolve the issue, everything becomes easier, and whether they could repay or not, they had some confidence.

At worst, they could take their time repaying.

Moreover.

The 4G network, data traffic, and mobile phone upgrades will be faster than feature phones, with greater consumption. The previous 4G testing in the capital yielded very positive results.

The stumbling block was always the money.

“Agreed.”

“Good.”

“In favor.”

“Let’s try.”

“…”

Unanimously passed.

Now.

Perhaps they could seize more market share, as they have held the third spot for too long. Seeing this result, the new leader nodded in satisfaction.

Half a month ago.

He was still in the communications authority of the Republic of Mali, holding a significant post. Then the big boss approached him, saying he would be transferred here.

Initially.

He was somewhat hesitant.

However.

Upon hearing about the benefits, he immediately agreed. Later, he realized what the job was about, and he instantly understood the reason and willingly accepted the task to earn this fee.

…

Not far.

At the second-largest operator.

“They decided to loan to purchase Huawei’s 4G equipment. Currently, the exact outcome is unknown, but there’s a significant chance. What should we do?”

This unsettled them a bit, as they had previously conducted only a few 4G trials in the capital and several major cities due to cost concerns.

Here.

It’s not overly wealthy.

Fear of loss.

“What are your thoughts?”

“Follow up.”

“A bit risky.”

“But if they secure the loan, we will be very passive.”

“…”

Eventually.

They made a similar decision—if the opponent’s loan gets approved, they would immediately follow suit to avoid losing face, and this scenario also played out with the number-one operator.

…

Three days later.

“Approved!”

“Woohoo!”

“Haha! Great news.”

“…”

A burst of jubilation. They never expected it to happen so quickly. In just three days, the six-billion RMB 4G project bidding contract was approved.

They’re proud of having figured out Myanmar Bank’s ’pulse,’ confirming that buying products related to its industry holds promise.

Good!

In addition.

They also signed numerous contract handset agreements. In the future, their 4G contract plans will mainly use Huawei models, creating a win-win situation.

Seeing this.

The other two major operators couldn’t sit still.

Upping the ante.

Buy.

The largest operator, from Europe, decided to buy mostly Huawei equipment for cost reasons, using only a small amount of European and American communication devices.

After all.

Money isn’t something that falls from the sky.

…

Next.

Seeing this, it seemed as if discovering a ’trick.’ Many telecom operators in other countries sought loans from Myanmar Bank to expand 4G coverage.

For the same reason.

4G.

Will be built eventually.

It’s the future.

Therefore.

Building early could seize market share or earn more data traffic money. In any case, it is foreseeable that 4G coverage will significantly increase in these countries.

Everything.

Appeared completely normal.

…

“Good.”

Shanghai Stock Market.

Tang Qing, with a big smile, realized the charm of money was truly on full display. Through ’lobbying,’ he convinced countries to increase their 4G procurement.

No money?

Borrow.

This time.

The main operations involved those lacking funds. As a result, borrowing Asia Dollars to purchase Huawei equipment counted as international payments. As for repayment?

Heh!

Tang Qing wasn’t worried at all. Risk control is not for nothing and is targeted. There used to be concerns, but that’s no longer an issue.

After borrowing money.

The debt must be repaid.

No one can escape from this.

This time.

Tang Qing added a large number of ’swipe limit’ plans. 4G equipment is just a small part, with plenty of project catalogs to be gradually included.

For instance:

Later.

Add project loans to the next batch of countries incorporating Asia Dollars into their reserve currencies, focusing on electricity and roads, as having these two will lead to everything else.

At that time.

Fighters spread worldwide.

Directly.

Indirectly.

The companies they control can also start to emerge. Over the years, this industry has been immense but never dared to take significant collective actions.

Because of identity issues.

Once united, background checks have become troublesome, and although the system can forge identities, many are based on missing persons, but it can’t forge memories.

Digging deeper.

Finds many common threads.

Bribery?

Plausible.

But another issue arises. Several drinks might loosen their tongues, or indirectly controlling a front figure, who might also betray.

Therefore.

Many things had to be shelved before.

Now.

They can be boldly activated. Tang Qing’s plan is for fighters to gradually retreat into the shadows as liaisons, each developing dozens to hundreds under them.

Bound by contracts.
