Chapter 145: Allies
Milkan is telling the truth, and it is because it is the truth that Jonas hesitates, because Milkan's reliability has not yet been proven.
A tyrant like him is a very dangerous partner, and while Jonas is using him, he can also make the most of Jonas.
If there is a conflict with him in the future, it will be fatal.
On the surface, every one of these people in the entire interest group seems to be so-called successful people, elites, and most of them seem to be mild-mannered.
But in reality, this is a group of lawless, cunning and ruthless characters who unscrupulously use the rules, maintain the rules, but trample on the rules.
Maintaining the rules is to ensure one's own authority and interests, and using the rules is to earn more benefits.
But when the interests reach a certain level, they dare to break through the limits of the rules more than anyone else.
Ordinary people can't enter this circle, and the threshold of entering this circle is the goal of most people's life.
Jonas is now able to enter the circle because of the remnants of the Hoffman family and the wealth left by Yannick.
Although he is protected by the tiger Richie, he is now just a fledgling who can be bullied by anyone in the eyes of others, and he has no ability to protect himself.
Jonas was well aware of their ruthlessness, so he had been carefully arranging.
But his movements, and even his mentality, were clearly seen by them.
Jonas wasn't discouraged, because it was inevitable. As long as he wants to climb up, there is only one way for him to go.
The key is that he must have the ability to protect himself, and he can't be regarded as a soft persimmon by anyone.
Jonas asked again, "Can you be trusted?"
Milkan laughed: "I'm going to make a lot of money on this deal." I'm going to come up with another $46 million, a full $100 million, and let Hoffman Bank take care of it. You can take this as a security deposit that I paid. ”
With a $100 million loyalty guarantee, that's more than enough.
In this era, that is, in this kind of industry, any person can come up with hundreds of millions of dollars of funds without breaking his bones.
In other industries, if Jobs comes out with $100 million dollars, he will sell all the stocks.
Apple's total market capitalization is only a billion now, and the market value is completely different from the funds that can be used.
Jonas nodded and asked, "And what do I have to give?"
Milkan smiled: "No, you don't have to give anything, I just want to be your permanent partner." ”
Jonas understood what he meant, and he now regarded Jonas as his god of fortune and was very optimistic about Jonas's future.
He is now investing in Jonas as a person, and as long as he follows Jonas, he can make money.
He doesn't even need to make money, as long as Jonas can help him when he's in danger, it's worth it.
Jonas groaned, then held out his hand and said, "Should I say happy cooperation?"
He laughed and reached out to take Jonas' hand. "Rest assured, security is a very important thing for someone like me, and you can give me that. ”
There is no need to sign a contract, no notarization is required, although the people in this circle are deceitful, but they absolutely abide by the habit of making promises.
Jonas relaxed, snuggled into the back of his chair and said, "You don't need to put the money you invest in a private bank, I have a good investment channel." ”
He had put $34 million in private banks, which was enough.
When there are enough threats and temptations of profit, put 100 million dollars, and he still has the potential to betray.
For example, if someone holds a gun to his head, will he betray? That's for sure!
Although such a situation is unlikely to happen to him......
He nodded and said, "I brought two former Mossad agents, one with a sharp skill and the other with an electronics expert. ”
Jonas did not refuse, he was already short of bodyguards by his side, and after Yannick's accident, Grandma Hannah had been planning to strengthen security and would not refuse the protection of Mossad agents.
Jonas said yes. "In the beginning, I would pay according to the market. ”
"That's enough. "He didn't take it upon himself to say that he wanted to pay for Jonas, and when he became Jonas's bodyguard, he had to be severed from what he had before.
Milkan nodded and said, "I will build a water purification plant in the Gaza Strip in your name, which will not only reward you from the Jews, but also from the Palestinians." ”
"Reward?" Jonas asked, "This is what you call official?"
"Yes, a presidential medal. ”
That's a big gift. The Jewish Presidential Medal is awarded primarily to a person, organization or institution that has contributed to the international image of the Jewish people.
Receiving this medal will not only be of great use to the Jewish state, but will also be recognized by the Jewish elite in Armenia.
The main thing is that the Gaza Strip is mainly inhabited by Palestinians, and the construction of water purification plants to serve the Palestinians can also win the goodwill of the Arab world.
Even if the Gaza Strip continues to fight for many years in the future, this achievement cannot be erased.
Jonas asked, "Do you have any financial investment experts under you?"
Milkan hesitated and said, "At this stage, I don't think it's necessary. ”
Knowing that he was showing his sincerity, Jonas was not reluctant. "Then after the New Year, you send an accountant, and your investment needs a professional accountant to oversee it. ”
He hesitated for a moment and asked, "So, can I know what the investment is?"
"I'll tell you then, it's not time yet. ”
The Plaza Accord in '85 reduced the ratio of the dollar to the yen from 1:24 to 1:12.
This is not just a matter of the appreciation of the yen, but the money in the hands of Dongying, who are clamoring to buy the world, seems to be more valuable, but the appreciation of the yen has led to a decline in their export competitiveness.
Before the crisis became apparent, a large amount of yen began to invest in Armenian real estate and stock markets, including Armenian companies.
There is still a huge amount of yen with nowhere to go, which has caused the domestic stock market to soar, housing prices to soar, and the housing prices in one district of Tokyo can buy the whole of Manhattan.
From the late 80s to the early 90s, it was the last feast of Dongying.
And this opportunity is also the first battle that Jonas is preparing to make a name for himself.
Of course, he will not be as malicious as Soros, who can't help but rush forward as a thug.
What happened to him in the end? He became a stinking shit, the company went bankrupt, and he retired in disgrace.
Anyone can make money by any means, but he must not set up a large number of enemies because of making money, and he must spare others.
Even if Jonas wants to make money from the people of Dongying, he has to make them grateful to Dade.
Of course, this is the deepest thought in his heart, and he will not say it to anyone.
Jonas didn't want to say, Milkan didn't ask, he was still cautiously approaching Jonas, and he wouldn't have any dissent until he had figured out Jonas's temper.
Because for Milkan, it's not about making money, it's about saving your life.
Jonas beckoned to Wolf in the living room, who was already curious about Milkan's identity, and immediately got up and moved a chair over.
Introducing Wolf's identity, Jonas told Wolff: "This is Arnhorne Mirkan from the Jewish state, a big man with great influence in the world. ”
Milkan modestly said, "No, I'm just a pawn. ”
He reached out and shook Wolfe's hand. "Thank you for your continued care. ”
Wolf couldn't figure out Arnolde's identity, let alone why he said that. He could only say ambiguously: "We take care of each other." ”
Jonas doesn't go into detail about their identities, which is also a means of control. "I'm still in school, so I don't get too involved in business unless I set a direction for development.
Uncle Wolfe, with Uncle Mark's support, will be able to draw out Dad's inheritance in two months at most. About 20 percent of the funds will stay in the investment bank.
I need you to set up the framework of investment banking and arrange an assistant for you when the time is right. You should also know Bennett from the futures operation team of the current investment bank. ”
Arranging a person to restrain Wolf is not directed at Wolf.
Swiss companies have always had strict management systems, rarely allowing one person to control all the power, and more democracy.
Centralized power will only be in the hands of the boss, or shareholder.
It is also because of this system that Switzerland does not produce managers who say nothing, but it can train countless professional managers.
Wolf nodded, still speculating about Milkan's identity and the role he would play.
Jonas added, "Uncle Milkan, when your money is there, if not an asset manager, then a custodian.
In addition, I will arrange for an independent firm to manage and audit the accounts of the investment bank, so you don't have to worry about mistakes in the accounts.
However, because of your sensitive identity, I don't want to get too close on the surface of it. Even if the Jewish State awards me a presidential medal, you must downplay your presence. ”
Wolf was even more confused, the Presidential Medal, why was the medal awarded to Jonas, a student, and what did Jonas do?
Milkan nodded and said, "Even if you don't say I'll do it, the farther away from you the infamous I am, the better." The better your image, the more it will help us. ”
He was relieved to understand Jonas and promised him, "Don't worry, I won't let you down." ”
Wolf now felt that he didn't know Jonas at all, and that Jonas, who had been a novice in his eyes, had now ventured into a realm he didn't know anything about.
More importantly, Jonas became even more mysterious in his eyes.
That evening, Jonas called Bennett, who was in London.
Bennett was thrilled to learn that Jonas had changed his mind and immediately agreed to work for Hoffman's investment bank.
(The foreshadowing plot is almost over, ready to enter the commercial link.) )
