Chapter 879: A Surprise Invitation
"Boss, I found out who the opponent is, it turns out to be the New York Chemical Bank!"
Two days later, the New York branch of Jiuding Securities Company, Toby Moulton entered Xia Yu's office in a hurry, and reported with a somewhat solemn face, still clutching a hardboard folder in his hand.
Hearing Toby Moulton's words, Xia Yu looked up at him, still with a calm face, which made Toby Moulton subconsciously suppress his voice and sense that something was wrong.
"Boss, you know?"
Toby Morton asked tentatively.
"Not unexpected. ”
Xia Yu looked at the exquisite invitation on the desktop, said with a slight bow, and stretched out his hand to Toby Moulton, who immediately handed the folder to Xia Yu.
Toby Morton glanced at the invitation letter in front of Xia Yu's eyes, although he was very curious, he didn't dare to ask.
Opening the folder, Xia Yu found that there was not much information in it, and most of the limited content was a brief introduction to the Chemical Bank of New York, for example, this is a bank founded in 1959 by the merger of two old banks, and the total assets of the bank exceeded $40 billion last year, ranking tenth among commercial banks in the United States.
Of course, in addition to the basic information about the Chemical Bank of New York, there is the recent acquisition of a stake in Philip Brothers.
It seems that the New York Chemical Bank deliberately hid it, so Toby Morton did not gather much information, but he was able to determine that the New York Chemical Bank's shareholding ratio exceeded 25%, and the exact amount remains to be confirmed.
If he had brought it yesterday, Xia Yu would have wanted to get to the bottom of it.
But the invitation sent by someone early this morning has already brightened Xia Yu's heart.
Closing the folder, Xia Yu rewrote it and handed it to Toby Moulton, and said with a smile: "Toby, thank you for your hard work, there is no need to investigate the matter of the New York Chemical Bank." ”
"The next step is to continue to make every effort to acquire the stake in Philip Brothers and strive to achieve some more results today. ”
"Okay. Toby Morton took the folder and nodded a little confused.
"I still have some things, you can handle the company's affairs, and if you can't make a decision, call me at home. ”
"If it's okay, you can go ahead and get busy. ”
After Xia Yu finished speaking, a confused Toby Moulton withdrew from the office and continued to buy the shares of Philip Brothers.
And Xia Yu picked up the invitation, smiled inexplicably, opened it again, and in the lower right corner of the invitation, the signature of the person who signed the invitation was revealed, and it was David Rockefeller.
The Chemical Bank of New York is one of the financial cores of the Rockefeller consortium, and it is self-evident what it means to receive an invitation from David Rockefeller early this morning.
When he saw this name, Rao was in Xia Yu's state of mind, and his heart was still rippling with layers of waves.
After careful calculation, he didn't come to the United States for long, and he didn't think he would come into contact with this figure who can be called the top of the American pyramid so quickly, but he didn't expect the accident to come so suddenly.
"But it doesn't matter, with my current foundation, even the Rockefeller consortium cannot be easily destroyed. ”
"It's time to go back and prepare, I just don't know what he's calculating, hehe......"
After closing the invitation, Xia Yu put the invitation into his briefcase, and then got up to leave.
......
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
On the road leading to the gate of the Rockefeller estate in New York, three black Rolls-Royce cars drove from far and near.
When he came to the big iron gate, he stopped, and the car at the beginning slowly rolled down the window and handed out a beautiful invitation, and after reading it, the doorman immediately opened the door and let him go.
The car started again, drove along the main road inside, and following the instructions of the servants along the way, parked the car in the garage.
"Hello, Mr. Xia, please come with me, Mr. Rockefeller is waiting for you in the living room, but your bodyguard may need to wait outside. ”
When Xia Yu and his group of nine people walked out of the garage, a middle-aged white man who appeared out of nowhere walked straight to Xia Yu, bowed to him and said.
"Boss!"
Li Wuming's face changed slightly, and he immediately shouted to Xia Yu.
Before coming, Xia Yu introduced some information about the Rockefeller family to him, and at this time, in his opinion, this is the Longtan Tiger's Den.
"Is Mr. David Rockefeller alone in the living room?" Xia Yu frowned slightly, shook his head slightly at Li Wuming, and asked the white man.
"Yes, Mr. Rockefeller alone, he's been waiting for some time, please come with me. The white man immediately replied.
Xia Yu bowed his head slightly and said, "Okay!"
"When you get to the door, wait outside. ”
After saying a few words of advice to Li Wuming and others, he motioned to the white man to lead the way.
Although Li Wuming and the others were very worried, they could only watch Xia Yu walk into the gate of the villa when Xia Yu was not far from the door.
Walking into the classical living room, Xia Yu's eyes immediately locked on the sofa in the center and stood up, looking at his old man with a kind smile on his face.
Xia Yu recognized it at a glance, it was David Rockefeller.
With a smile on his face, he quickened his pace slightly.
David Rockefeller stretched out his hand to Xia Yu and said gently, "Hello, Mr. Xia, welcome to my house." ”
Xia Yu shook hands with him, bowed slightly to show respect, and said with a smile: "Thank you!"
"Mr. Rockefeller, I couldn't believe it when I received your invitation, but it was a great honor for me to be here!"
After a few seconds, the two let go of their grip.
David Rockefeller smiled gently, made a gesture to Xia Yu and said, "Please be seated." ”
"Thank you!" Xia Yu thanked and sat on the sofa on the left side.
"What do you want?"
"Black coffee will do. ”
After Xia Yu finished speaking, the white man who led Xia Yu in bowed slightly, and then walked to the closet on the side and got busy.
Seeing David Rockefeller looking at himself with a smile on his face, Xia Yu looked at himself and asked suspiciously, "Mr. Rockefeller, what's wrong with me?"
David Rockefeller said with some sighs: "If it weren't for me, I really can't believe that there are such talented young people in the world, you made me re-acquaint myself with the world." ”
Such a high evaluation came out of David Rockefeller's mouth, Xia Yu immediately showed a flattered expression, and said modestly: "Mr. Rockefeller, your evaluation is too high, although I don't deny that I am a genius, but in my opinion, I rely more on luck, as if God is looking after me." ”
David Rockefeller was stunned, he didn't expect Xia Yu to answer like this and recommend success to luck.
He chewed these two words slightly, nodded as if in approval, and said with a smile: "The ability can be improved, but God's favor is destined from the moment of birth, since God favors you, then this is your strength." ”
David Rockefeller's answer surprised Xia Yu and didn't know how to answer.
At this moment, the servant happened to bring the plate, and after the Jiang plate was placed on the table, he brought Xia Yu and David Rockefeller a cup of coffee each, and Xia Yu thanked him softly.
"Give it a taste and see if my coffee is to your taste. After David Rockefeller picked up the coffee, he said to Xia Yu with a smile.
"I'll try it. ”
After speaking, Xia Yu picked up the coffee, first squinted and took a deep breath, and then took a sip gently, his mouth seemed to be aftertaste, and he exclaimed: "It's very mellow, with a slight sour and rich bitter taste in the mouth, and then taste it carefully, with a hint of sweetness in the bitterness, this is the best black coffee." ”
David Rockefeller smiled and introduced: "This is Sandos coffee from Brazil, it is a unique variety in Brazil, and the black coffee has the most fragrant flavor, but I am older, and I like to add a little milk when I drink it, and the taste is softer." ”
“......”
After five or six minutes of chatting on the topic of coffee, the atmosphere of the conversation has been created.
Xia Yu straightened his attitude, looked at David Rockefeller with a smile, and asked, "Mr. Rockefeller, you invited me over today, do you have anything to guide me?"
