Chapter 187 Consortium Vision
Seventy percent of Switzerland's ethnic groups are Germans, and the social climate is very close to that of Germany.
The main characteristic of this nation is tenacity, low-key, uninteresting, industrial focus, and refinement.
There was a famous rumor in Switzerland that German craftsmanship is the best in the world, but Switzerland is a little better than Germany.
Under this humanistic spirit, the rich people of this nation are very low-key, and the entrepreneurs rarely cross borders.
Those who open banks will open banks, and they will never be involved in industry, and those who make watches will not think of making guns.
Hannah was born in 1917 and thinks very old-fashioned, and in her opinion, Jonas should focus on banking, and even investing is a bit unusual, let alone starting a business.
Of course, Jonas would not argue with her, but said: "Grandma, I just integrate the resources in this area, use our financial resources, the human resources of the Neuer family, and the technical resources of the Giovanne and Suzanne families, and then find a new development route."
And I just want to try it, everything is not yet decided, and if the integration does not go well in the future, it will not cost too much. ”
When Jonas said this, Hannah calmed down and asked in a deep voice, "Are you trying to build an industrial cartel?"
Jonas laughs: "Many countries think of cartels, trust-like businesses as illegal monopolies, and I prefer to call them conglomerates. ”
Over the years, the development of American-style conglomerates has controlled most of the world's economy, and Dongying has developed according to this model, and their enterprises have also played an important role in the world.
A consortium is a monopoly group formed by the fusion of huge banks and huge enterprises controlled by a very small number of financial oligarchs.
It is generally formed by one or several families, including a small number of large banks, insurance companies, a large number of industrial and mining enterprises, processing enterprises, transportation enterprises, and sales enterprises.
In other words, the characteristics that a consortium must possess include banks and corporations. The enterprise must include the upstream, middle and downstream of the industry, otherwise it cannot be called a monopoly consortium.
Hannah shook her head and said, "Our Hoffman Bank is not a commercial bank, and we don't have such a big strength. ”
"This is just a preliminary idea of mine, and grandma doesn't need to worry about trying it now. Giovanne, Susanna, what do you think?"
Giovanne said: "This suggestion is very thought-provoking, but in a hurry, I can't make judgments. ”
Suzanne shook her head and said, "That's a good suggestion, but I'm still a student. ”
"I'm still a student. Jonas laughed. "It's just an idea, a preliminary idea. Let's go, let's go back to the hotel. ”
The group got up and went back to the hotel, where the lovers finally parted ways, but soon Jonas noticed that someone else had taken their place.
It can't be hidden from the eyes of Jonas, and certainly from the eyes of professionals, but this situation was communicated before it came, and no one made a fuss.
Back at the hotel, Jonas and the others received an invitation from Rogers, who was transferred at the front desk of the hotel, and he was very attentive and sent an invitation to everyone.
He didn't ignore anyone, making a few little ones extra excited. This may be the first time they have received an official invitation when they are fourteen years old.
The dinner was also very harmonious, eating delicious food, Jonas and Rogers chatted about the fun places in China.
A few little guys are not bored, and the food that is almost full of Han and Han cuisine has made everyone see the charm of oriental food.
Rogers valued this meal very much, and served four cuisines, with a total of more than 80 different dishes, and nearly 10 desserts alone.
In this era, this meal may cost thousands of foreign exchange coupons.
After the meal, Jonas and Rogers had a one-on-one chat in the café, the two of them had similar investment philosophies and agreed on many issues.
Although there is a reason for Jonas to be deliberately close, in terms of investment philosophy, it is difficult for two people with different styles to cooperate.
Take Soros and Rogers as an example, although they are very good friends, they eventually parted ways because of different investment philosophies.
Jonas analyzed his own ideas for investing in Dongying, and he also analyzed the current investment opportunities in Austria, a small country on the fringe of the economy.
The more the two of them talked, the more they were interested, and when the two of them parted at eleven o'clock, they were still a little unsatisfied.
However, both of them are people with strong self-control, Rogers will set off on his motorcycle early tomorrow morning, and Jonas will also take his grandmother and them out to play, so they all need to rest early to maintain their energy.
The two made an appointment for the next meeting and said goodbye.
Early the next morning, Rogers left the capital without saying goodbye to Jonas.
Jonas and his grandmother spent five days visiting the cultural landscapes of the capital and booked a trip to Guilin through a travel agency.
In the 80s, there were two main points of Chinese tourism that were more attractive, one was the oriental cultural and historical customs, and the other was food.
In this era, there were very few natural scenic spots developed, and even fewer were open to foreigners.
Like Jonas's favorite Jiuzhaigou and Zhangjiajie, Jonas inquired, and even people from domestic travel agencies don't know about these two places, let alone open them to foreigners.
Now the main ones are Wuyue, Huangshan, Guilin, these tourist areas are open.
Switzerland is the Alps, and although the scenery of the Yellow Mountain is charming, it is inferior to the large scale and many mountains of Switzerland.
Moreover, the transportation in Switzerland is developed and the supporting facilities are complete, and the transportation of Huangshan is inconvenient and is excluded.
Guilin's karst landscape is very different from Switzerland, with green hills that appear abruptly on the flat ground, making everyone never get tired of looking at them.
They played in Guilin for four days, from Guilin to Yangshuo, and then reluctantly came to the magic capital.
When they came to the magic capital, Hannah and the others fell in love with the city.
The capital has a strong oriental atmosphere, and although such a city is novel to them, it has no sympathy for them.
The city of Magic City has a strong Western style in architecture and a strong oriental atmosphere in humanities.
Today's Pudong is still a wasteland, the Bund is also old, and many magnificent buildings in later generations look without any momentum because of their dilapidation.
Hannah toured the International Complex on the Bund and said, "If you want to enter the Chinese market in the future, it is a good choice to set up a headquarters here." ”
Jonas put his arm around her shoulders and smiled: "I think the same way, this is a fertile land waiting to be developed, and if Hoffman Investment Bank wants to develop, it can't ignore the potential here." ”
The magic capital was the last stop of Jonas's Huaxia, and from here, they boarded the plane to Dongying.
It was an excursion trip and Jonas didn't do anything unplanned.
Not only did he not have a business plan, but he also did not inquire about the news of his past life.
According to the general logic, since he exists in this world after the crossing, he should not appear in his previous life.
Meeting Jim Rogers here was an unexpected surprise, and if they become partners, Jonas will be confident of facing any opponent for the next three decades.
On the plane to Dongying, Neuer was crooked by Jonas's side. "Brother Jonas, Grandma Hannah said that we would go back to Switzerland after a few days. But I want to go to Los Angeles with you......"
Jonas rubbed her hair and smiled, "Next time, we've been out for too long this time." At your age, it's not the right choice to delay your studies because of playing. ”
Neuer had communicated with Hannah, Helen, and her parents, and knew that his condition was somewhat unreasonable.
However, her purpose was not to hope that Jonas would agree, but to win sympathy and make other conditions.
"I still want to hang out with you during Christmas. ”
"Okay, I'll take you skiing then. ”
"I can go skiing with anyone, I want to go to the Seychelles, you didn't take me last year. ”
Jonas laughed: "When you are sixteen, I will take you there, and I will be on the beach of De Agen, and you will become my Emmanuelle." ”
The impact of these words on Neuer was a bit too great, and she blushed and turned her head to look at Jonas.
The plane landed at Haneda Airport, which is located in the middle of the sea, and looking at this bustling city, there is a big gap between the current China and here.
However, Jonas already knew that Huaxia would be stronger in the future, and there were not too many waves in his heart.
In the time when they were cooking with fire, he added another fire to them.
Unlike when they arrived in China, Jonas and the others had already established nearly twenty branches in Tokyo, and he, the big boss, came over, and of course was warmly welcomed.
There is no need to rent a car, and each branch will transfer a car, which will be enough for Jonas and them to use.
When she was in China, Hannah treated Jonas like a child, but when she got here, she instructed everyone to treat Jonas as a president.
In the past, Helen and Joseph had been fighting with the brother, but now, both of them showed great respect for Jonas.
No matter how respectful they are, they can't compare to the Dongying staff here.
When they came to the largest branch here, Hoffmann Real Estate Agency.
Dozens of Dongying employees lined up in a neat phalanx, bent down and bowed at 90 degrees in front of Jonas, startling Neuer and the others.
History aside, the obedience and loyalty of Dongying staff are indeed incomparable to those of most countries in the world.
They did not slack off because of Jonas's youth, and even doubted that in the face of the strong, they could first obey, and second, they could learn.
Of course, if they wait until they feel that they have learned, or when they already feel that they have enough strength, then they will turn their faces more ruthlessly than anyone else.
Hannah was also stunned by this situation, in her mind, just a job, can it be used like this?
(There are a lot of things that can't be written, so you can only ignore them.) When Jonas is finished, let's just do it. )
