Chapter 2046 Join him if you can't win
When I came to the Federal Reserve Building again, I was no longer surprised.
Only the cold hot water burned again, and the firewood pressed on the sparks was ignited.
The blazing flames shot out several meters high and bloomed in Li Zitao's eyes.
I've been here so many times, every time I get out of the elevator.
Li Zitao could only see the neat and clean red carpet and the door.
No one greeted him, no one welcomed him.
But this time is different!
As soon as the elevator door opened, Li Zitao saw several enthusiastic smiling faces.
George Kerry of Bank of America, Federal Reserve Vice Chairman Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs partner Attenborough Barber.
"Charlie~"
Drawing a long note, George Carey laughed and walked towards him with open arms.
Seeing the short figure of the other person, Li Zitao had to show a fake smile, bend down and hug him as a greeting.
"Charlie!" said Merrikin Cassel, who was in his prime and had some gray on his temples.
His deep-set eyes were shining brightly. This was an old fox who was not easy to deal with.
Attenborough Barber behaved very kindly, spoke unhurriedly, and had a calm sincerity in his voice.
But the more benign you are on the surface, the less threatening you seem.
It is often the most threatening existence.
‘One of Lao Yin’s pens has been appraised!’ Li Zitao already made a judgment in his mind after seeing each other face to face.
The three of them also had their own opinions on him.
In McRukin's view, Charlie Lee's success was due to too much luck and unreplicability.
Just like the oil fields he found, he was able to marry Luxembourg and gain support from the Rockefeller and Astor families.
These are all powerful aids on his road to success.
So, he is lucky.
This does not deny his success and ability, but it is not as exaggerated and magical as the rumors outside.
George had a good impression of him, and he looked like he was an honest and trustworthy person.
Of course, the premise is that there is no interest involved and you are on the same side as him.
In the world of capital, there is no loyalty when it comes to interests.
Why can the Li family be tied up with other consortiums to form a company that no one dares to ignore?
A huge community of interests that can affect the direction of the entire United States.
It is precisely because he can bring huge profits to everyone, which others cannot do.
Could it be that no one thought of trying to win over and divide them?
No, countless people have tried it.
But it's no use.
They cannot afford to pay the price for betrayal by those people.
And the price that can be paid is only for Li to cause a little trouble.
It's not painful or itchy, it just makes people sick!
Before you have the means to completely kill the enemy, you still have to run around and make them sick.
If someone feels that their death is not pleasant enough, they can try to see what the result will be.
Attenborough was smiling, and he had the highest evaluation of him in his heart.
'This is a difficult enemy with extremely strong abilities, skills and ambitions. If you can't defeat him in one go, then it's best not to try to be his enemy...it's better to choose to be friends.'
Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo both belong to Wall Street, and the two companies have a multi-party cooperative relationship in all aspects.
However, in the past, this relationship was limited to official matters.
You pay, I serve, I pay, you serve.
Business is business, no one should show mercy!
But now, Attenborough feels that this relationship can be properly deepened and consolidated.
Everyone present knew the reason why Morgan called the meeting.
But what he wanted to do was beyond their ability to guess.
In fact, the name Morgan is still intimidating and threatening in the financial world.
This is the glory and rights that have been long forgotten and created by three generations.
Frustration cannot be destroyed overnight.
When little Morgan died, this glory dimmed a bit.
When the Morgan Group was acquired and joined the Lee family, the position of power was shaken.
This has laid a hidden danger, and people no longer regard it as a belief in their hearts.
When American Steel came under attack, the cracks in this vulnerability grew wider.
Until now, Stanley has also begun to suffer fatal threats.
The Li family surrounded it from all sides, gradually encircling and suppressing it like prey.
Everyone felt Morgan's weakness and the important changes that were about to take place.
At this time, their first thought was not how to help Morgan tide over the difficulties.
The greed seeping into their bones made them start to think about it.
When Morgan, the financial behemoth, collapsed to the ground, blood flowed freely, and he was left to be slaughtered.
How should the interest group you belong to get a piece of meat from its corpse?
The bigger the meat, the better, and the more blood, the more fragrant it is.
what?
Save Morgan and advance and retreat with it??
Are you out of your mind???
Entering the conference room, Morgan, who was sitting at the end, cast his eyes on him.
Li Zitao would look at him, smile and nod.
The gentleman's behavior was appreciated by the financiers present.
"I think the meeting can start now."
boom!
The heavy door of the conference room was closed from the outside, and the security guard guarding the door stood at the door, waiting for the end of the meeting.
…
This meeting lasted much longer than originally planned.
The changes that occurred made everyone feel at a loss.
Early the next morning, the door to the conference room was opened.
Everyone walked quickly to the elevator with a confused look on their faces.
They need to convey what happened in the meeting to their own people as quickly as possible and completely.
Lee and Morgan...merged!
14 hours ago.
"This is a naked vicious acquisition, and you are a damn, greedy barbarian."
"If you sit back and watch this happen to Morgan, I believe it will happen to you again before long."
Morgan spoke passionately, hoping to arouse a sense of crisis among other bankers.
Unfortunately, his goal was not achieved.
"Morgan, everyone knows this is an unspoken rule, but you were the only one who got caught."
"The matter has been exposed. It is impossible to simply pretend that it does not exist. The people need an explanation, and Washington and Congress also need an explanation."
"The Supreme Court will never allow Wall Street to manipulate the financial world into its hands."
"I can't remember how much they looked forward to seeing all the bankers put in jail and replaced one after another."
"Yes, if you insist, the final result must come from the Supreme Court's ruling."
"Morgan, this will bring disaster to the entire Wall Street!"
No, the support and sympathy Morgan expected didn't come.
The general trend is that even if some people sympathize with him in their hearts, it will not be reflected in business.
Friendship is friendship, business is business, that's it.
Chapter completed!
