The dance party that starts at half past seven and lasts until ten o'clock, but that doesn't mean the evening's entertainment is over.

Men would gamble in the billiard room, bowling alley, or at the poker table.

The women also chat for a while before going to bed, and they also have their own entertainment.

At this time, the etiquette company arranged for the staff to serve wine, as well as various snacks prepared by Hannah and them, as a supplement to the meal after the exercise.

Jonas danced only four dances tonight, the first with Anna, the guest of honor, and the second with Neuer, his "fiancée", because Neuer was under the age of sixteen and they were not yet engaged.

The third accompanies grandma Hannah, and the fourth accompanies her own mother, Emir.

After that, he got into the busy social scene, and as the host of the day, he was the intermediary for all the guests.

Any guest, unless he is particularly familiar with it before, and others want to talk about business, they must introduce it through him.

This rhythm continued until the end of the dance, when he relaxed a little.

From the social arena on the first floor to the second floor, in the large living room on the second floor, the men were divided into several different groups, some were chatting, but more were divided into different groups playing cards.

Jonas arrives in the small living room, where a group of young people play a murderous game, which is even more noisy.

The two floors were lent to the Charles couple and their retinue, and Jonas returned to the first floor.

There were still a lot of people talking about business in the living room, and he came to the billiards room, where Rogers and a few investment financiers from Wall Street played billiards, which was quite a clean place.

Jonas rubbed his temples and said to Mikiros, who was following him: "Mikiros, tomorrow let someone investigate the business scope, shareholding composition of the Pinault family's African car sales company, and what their advantages are. ”

"Okay. "She has written down a lot of instructions in her notebook, and there are a lot of business deals in this kind of social arena, and many of them are good investment opportunities.

Opportunities, which are so lacking for many people, have arisen at least dozens of times tonight.

But Mikiros was not impressed, because she knew very well that staying by Jonas's side was the biggest opportunity.

"I'm dizzy now, and I can't remember a lot of things, so you read all my social order for tonight. ”

"Mr. Ficklow and Mr. Ewell's Precision Machining Talks......"

"I don't need to follow up on this for the time being, just pay attention to it. In the short term, we will not enter the precision lathe industry. ”

"Talks ...... on the supply of spare parts between Ruihao and BMW"

"Understanding the current business situation of REHAU is an important company for us to invest in in the future. ”

"Piaggio's Business Jet Promotion Program ......"

"They are advanced in the manufacture of fighter jets, but the manufacture of medium and large aircraft is a short board, so there is no need to pay attention to it. ”

"The Barto-Romeo Family's Pistol Sales ......"

The Barto-Romeo family is an old Italian family that is now best known for the manufacture of Boleta pistols and shotguns.

The Boleta pistol can also be ranked in the top three in the world comparison.

Jonas shook his head and said, "We can't enter this industry for the time being, it's enough to act as an introducer, and there is no need to follow up." ”

"What about the investment cooperation initiated by the Borromeo family?"

"Hoffman Investment Bank does not accept equity investments for the time being. ”

"So will it affect your relationship?"

Jonas hesitated, then sure, "I'll decline." ”

The Agnelli family is the largest family in Italy, but in terms of heritage, they are a bit far behind the Borromeo family.

The Borromeo family was born at the same time as the Medici family, and that was already 600 years ago.

The Medici family has long since declined, but the Borromeo family, with the exception of three cardinals, has survived.

Their banks are all over Italy, and their private homes are found in every beautiful part of Italy.

They were almost a generational marriage to the Duchy of Milan, and in Lake Maggiore, the largest in Italy, they once owned a thousand square kilometers of land.

Two hundred years ago, Lake Maggiore was the private lake of their family. At one time, it was known as the country of Borromeo.

It was not until 1797 that Napoleon revoked the Borromeo family's jurisdictional privileges, but to this day the land ownership is still theirs, and the people who live there do not have land titles.

The five islands in the lake, known as the Borromeo Islands, still belong to their family, including the assets of the islands.

Every year, the world's most luxurious mansion has been selected, but each time, Buckingham Palace and their family's mansion on Bella Island were not selected.

Because these two mansions cannot be evaluated by the value of money at all.

Buckingham Palace aside, the Borromeo family's Bella Island mansion, an island is a house, the house is divided into ten floors, built for hundreds of years.

The house is typical of French style, with trees planted on each floor and looks like a botanical garden. Each floor has countless sculptures left by famous artists, and it is like an art sculpture park.

Inside, the family has collected works of art over the centuries, including priceless masterpieces and even an entire shipwreck from 3,000 years ago.

After World War II, the family opened several of their islands to the outside world, attracting millions of people each year.

The heritage of this family is rarely matched even in Europe, and their development has been smooth since then, and they have retained most of their heritage.

In later generations known to Jonas, the family was headed by Don Carlo Ferdinando, and four daughters were born.

The eldest daughter married the Italian earl family, the heir of the Italian API oil group, and the second daughter married the heir of Fiat, the nephew of Giovanne, at that time, Giovanne was already dead, and the nephew became the heir.

The third daughter was married to the Prince of Germany, and the fourth daughter was married to the Prince of Monaco.

In the eyes of ordinary people, marrying a prince is marrying into a wealthy family, but the European media have used the term "next marriage" to describe the marriage of these four daughters.

Marrying a prince or marrying a prince shows how deep the heritage of this family is.

But no matter how deep their family roots are.

They are now better than the Habsburgs, the former richest family in Europe, and the Rothschilds, the richest family in the past, and Jonas is not afraid of them.

The interest groups behind him can be said to be fearless of any force except for a few powerful countries.

If they just invest, it's good to take them to make a fortune together.

But if you want a stake in Hoffman's investment bank, no one has a chance.

It has not yet entered the Internet era, and the development of Hoffman's investment bank is still a bit slow.

But by the 90s, Jonas was confident that his investment bank would become the world's largest private equity fund, or consortium.

He is just stupid, and he will not let people give shares casually, and easily take advantage of this big advantage.

"What about La Lule and your uncle Aubert who want to use the energy of the energy group to transform Romanée Conti's sales strategy?"

"Helping them move forward with this program, we can provide no matter how much money is needed. ”

"The marriage of the Bavino family and the Jebio family......"

"You don't need to ask me about this kind of thing......

Mikiros couldn't help but laugh.

Rodgers finished the game and shouted at the table, "Jonas, come and relax." ”

Jonas's eyes swept around and asked, "Aren't there so many of them?"

He smiled a little smugly: "All of them are defeated by their subordinates. ”

Bennett was particularly unconvinced, and cried out: "Jonas, teach him a lesson, I will bet a hundred Swiss francs on you." ”

Jonas has good playing skills, and he is one of the two among his friends, and although he can't compare with the pros, he is also somewhere between an amateur and a professional.

Playing flower ball billiards, he can often clear the table with one shot, play snooker, and win a lot of times.

Steinhardt also laughed: "I will also bet a hundred Swiss francs, if you can teach him a lesson, tomorrow I will treat all of you to a big dinner." ”

Jonas laughed and said, "Rogers, you seem to be in the thick of the crowd right now!"

Rogers laughed, not paying any attention to the crowd. "As long as you can beat me, it's okay if I have a treat. ”

Jonas became competitive and said to Mikiros: "Tomorrow, if you pass on all the instructions, you can take a vacation and come to work after the New Year." ”

"Okay. ”

Coming to the club, Jonas picked a club and smiled, "Jim, how do you play?"

"How about a hundred Swiss francs?"

"No problem. ”

Rogers tees off first, and a strange young man next to Bennett pulls Bennett over.

"Jonas, I'll introduce you, this is my cousin Michael Pratt, who has always admired you very much. ”

Jonas paused for a moment, stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Michael Pratt." ”

This Pratt is a year or two younger than Jonas and looks very young with a baby face. He grabbed Jonas's hand with both hands with some excitement. "Hello Jonas, I've been investing in stocks since I was twelve, but I've never had such good results as you. ”

Jonas is now sure that this is the financial investment genius who rejected Soros.

In 2000, he founded Raopo Asset Management, which was effectively a private equity hedge fund and quickly grew Raopo to become the third largest hedge fund in Europe.

His battle to fame was the 2008 financial crisis, when he made more than half a billion dollars when the vast majority of funds lost money.

Jonas smiled and said, "Welcome Michael, are you still in school?"

"Yes, I'm still in high school and will start tomorrow summer. ”

"If you're willing to go to university in Switzerland, I might be able to offer you an internship at the company. ”

This investment genius graduated around '90 and worked at Morgan for 10 years before starting to go it alone. If you take him under your command now, you will have one more capable man in the future.

He said excitedly: "Then I will definitely choose the University of Zurich as a candidate in February, and it will be my honor to become an alumnus with you." ”

Rogers laughed: "Michael just talked to me for a while, and I can find out that he is still very talented in investing. But for now, let's play first!"
