John's time for Buffett was eight o'clock in the morning.

But Buffett knew that a busy person like John was stuck in time and would never waste a minute on him, so in order not to be late, he rushed from New York to Los Angeles overnight.

When he came to Los Angeles, it was almost dawn, so he found a hotel to wash up, changed into clean and tidy clothes, and rushed to Purple Star Manor.

It was exactly 7:45 when he arrived at Purple Star Manor, and after a series of checks such as a body search, he waited in the hall for another ten minutes before the special service took him to the reception room.

After arriving in the reception room, he finally met the rumored little boss of the Morgan family.

John's first impression of him was very young, very young, and there was some sense of déjà vu, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"Hello, Mr. Morgan!"

Buffett stood three meters away from John and bowed his head slightly.

Although John gave him the impression of being particularly young, he would not despise John because of this.

The Morgan family's mini-boss represents the Morgan family.

The dignity of the Morgan family is not to be despised by anyone, unless you are standing at the top of the food chain like the Morgan family, forget about John's age and show your respect for the Morgan family in a proper manner.

Otherwise, if John doesn't pursue it, the rest of the Morgan family will also teach you to be respectful.

"Yes. ”

John, who was sitting on the sofa, nodded slightly, in response to Buffett's greetings, but he just responded, without the slightest intention of asking Buffett to sit down, and let Buffett stand like this.

After seeing John's response, Buffett naturally crossed his hands in front of him, and stood calmly in front of John, not embarrassed by John's slackness.

And John couldn't help but look up to Buffett a little more when he saw Buffett's calm appearance.

He deliberately didn't let Buffett sit just to give Buffett a dismissal to see if Buffett was annoyed or angry.

Emotions can influence a person to make mistakes, and he just wants Buffett to make mistakes in the next conversation, but now it seems that Buffett's qi cultivation skills are stronger than he imagined.

In this encounter, he lost a little bit.

"I heard White Weinberg say you have something to see me?"

John lost a game and decided to retreat and pretend to be confused.

The ancients said: It's rare to be confused, and John is ready to be confused.

"Yes. Buffett nodded: "I came today to apologize to you for my behavior." ”

"Apologize, apologize for what?" John continued to be confused.

Buffett didn't intend to be confused like John, and replied directly: "I offended you by knowing that you were washing the dishes of IBM, and you still wanted to make a fortune with luck." ”

Buffett didn't give himself any reason and confessed cleanly.

But John continued to pretend to be confused: "Is there such a thing? I don't know. ”

"You have a lot of business, and it's normal to not know. Buffett knew that John was pretending to be confused, but he did not debunk it, and still said sincerely: "Mr. Morgan, I formally apologize to you for my behavior, and in order to make up for the offense to you, I am willing to return all the shares of IBM in my hands unconditionally." ”

Dani on the side was very surprised when she heard this, stopped the pen in her hand, looked up at Buffett, and couldn't help but secretly praise Buffett for being smart and knowing how to protect himself by showing weakness.

There is no shame in showing weakness, let alone showing weakness to the Morgan family, many people don't even have this qualification.

After John heard Buffett's words, he scolded Buffett as an old fox in his heart, and at the same time secretly praised Buffett for being a ruthless person, not ambiguous at the critical moment, and knowing how to use the trick of a strong man breaking his wrist to protect himself.

But John won't fall for Buffett, and continued to pretend to be confused: "How can the Morgan family take your things for no reason, IBM stocks were bought by you with real money, you can keep them!"

The meaning of John's words is very clear, let Buffett keep the shares of IBM first, and when he takes over Buffett's company, he will get it back himself, and he doesn't need Buffett to send it.

Besides, take his stuff and give it to him, is that what happened?

Buffett saw that John didn't accept it, and naturally knew John's plan in his heart, so he insisted: "This is not okay Mr. Morgan, you are Mars of Wall Street, high up, I am just a bather under your holy grace, offending your dignity, I should offer the most sincere apology, so I think it is not sincere enough to return IBM's stock, of course, if you don't dislike Berkshire Hathaway, I am very happy to take all the shares in my hand as an apology, in order to express my respect for the Morgan family." ”

Since J.P. Morgan's generation, the patriarch of the Morgan family has been called Jupiter of Wall Street, the head of the twelve main gods in Roman mythology.

Mars, who called the heir to the Morgan family as Wall Street, is also the twelve main gods in Roman mythology, second only to Jupiter in status.

The two titles also reflect the status of the Morgan family on Wall Street.

And Buffett just wants to use the status of the Morgan family to talk about things, reminding John from the side that the Morgan family is the king of Wall Street, and he is just an insignificant little ant.

How can a king deal with an ant?

If you have to care, then it doesn't matter, I took the initiative to give my property, I don't have to wait for you to use a slow knife to cut the flesh on my body piece by piece, it's uncomfortable, I want to just do it.

Buffett knows very well that if he wants to tide over the difficulties, he can only gamble, gamble on the only glimmer of life, and directly poke at John's pain point, the status of the Morgan family.

In fact, his method is very effective, and it really pokes at John's pain point.

The king has the demeanor of a king, and the little people lose their identity, just like a mad dog bites you, are you so difficult to bite the mad dog?

So John could only bite his back molars and let Buffett go for the time being.

"Since you sincerely apologize, it would be too unpleasant if I didn't accept it, so I accepted IBM's shares. As for your shares, you can keep your shares, Berkshire Hathaway still needs you to manage it, and I still wait for the annual dividends. ”

John's words can be regarded as a final result of this matter, he will take the shares of IBM, he will not want the shares of Buffett, and at the same time, he will not buy the shares of Berkshire Hathaway, nor will he interfere in the management of Berkshire Hathaway.

And Buffett was relieved when he heard John's words, and he won the bet.

"I am grateful for your generosity. Buffett said and bowed his head slightly to John.

"Alright, that's it, let's go!" John raised his hand and drove Buffett out of the reception room like a fly, he didn't want to see the old guy.

But no matter what, John doesn't deny that he did lose in this encounter.

But what if you don't lose? Warren Buffett is barefoot, Morgan is shoe-wearing, how can you compare yourself to other people's scoundrels?

Do you think that the Morgan family can grow savagely without regard for face like in the early days of the business?

But when they fought Afghanistan and Iraq, people did not dare to raise their guns and shoot them, and they had to go to great lengths to find an excuse, and although this excuse was very "excuse," at least it was passable on the surface, and at least it had a fig leaf, and at least it looked less ugly.

So John can only admit defeat for the image of the Morgan family, but this is only temporary, he can wait, wait for Buffett to make a mistake, and then he will have an excuse, and he will be elegant.
