048 Bank robbery
"Mr. Li, someone from the asset management department will come over in a while, and they will come with detailed information, you can choose. Hanging up the phone, Billy immediately said to Li Feng with a smile.
"It's okay, I still have something to ask you, and I may need the help of your professional financial team at Citibank.
That's right, I guess around August, when the company I own shares will be listed, and my shares may have to be cashed out after listing, and now I need the help of your Citi financial talents.
I don't know exactly what the situation is and how to operate, which is one of the reasons why I am here today. ”
"Oh, that's right, congratulations on that, I hope the stock price will go up sharply.
As for how to operate, I think that since the volume is relatively large, it needs special stockbrokers and traders to operate.
Citi has a dedicated stock operation finance team, and how to operate it has to be discussed in detail with our stock economy and managers. ”
......
"Then I'll say hello to you first, and I'll contact you in August, hoping that you can help me connect with a professional when the time comes.
I can tell you this, a total of 3 million shares, the total value is expected to be about 3-400 million US dollars, I hope to be able to cash out all within 1 week, and it is best not to affect the stock price when cashing out, so I hope to have a better cooperation plan at that time. ”
"Okay, then I'll wait for your news in August, and I'll get in touch with the securities department before that and prepare all the preparations for you. After listening to Li Feng's words, Billy replied excitedly.
Thinking to himself, I really didn't expect that in addition to buying a house, Li Feng would immediately have a big business delivered to the door.
You must know that such financial services are charged, and if it is really according to the value of 3 or 400 million US dollars that Li Feng said, the funds involved are not small, and Citi will be able to make a profit at that time, and his dream of promotion and salary increase may not be far away.
If Li Feng could hear Billy's heart, he would probably reply to him, yes, promotion, salary increase, become general manager (CEO), and marry Bai Fumei's dream is not far away.
......
Now that we're done with business, let's start chatting with Billy, let's talk about Billy's family.
I know that although Billy is Chinese, he is completely old American thinking, born and raised in the United States, he is considered a second generation of Chinese, and even stumbling over Chinese.
Open and shut up our United States, as for China, maybe there is still in the bottom of his parents' hearts, which made Li Feng feel for a while.
was chatting, and a few minutes later there was a knock on the door, presumably the real estate economy over there was asset management.
Sure enough, Billy went to open the door and greeted the people, and then introduced them to everyone.
There are two people, a man and a woman, both of whom are professionally dressed, to be honest, Citi should have worked hard in this regard, whether it is a man or a woman, at least the facial features are very exquisite, the man is handsome, and the woman is beautiful.
The woman is the manager of the real estate department, about 30 years old, and an assistant about 20 years old, named Anna Baker and Charlie Hanks.
......
"Miss Anna, hello, I think Billy should have told you about the situation on my side, don't you know what you have to recommend?" After the greetings, Li Feng didn't hesitate and asked directly.
"Mr. Lee, according to your requirements, in the vicinity of Hollywood, we have selected a few properties, basically in Beverly Hills and nearby, which is the best area in Los Angeles, can give you a brief introduction. ”
Hearing Anna's introduction, Li Feng was also interested, after all, Beverly Hills is too famous.
After reading the introduction, Li Feng knew that there are a total of 3 properties to choose from in Beverly Hills and the surrounding areas, and 2 are in the flat area south of Sunset Boulevard, and the relative price is relatively low, around 2 million.
A two-and-a-half-story villa located north of Sunset Avenue at the foot of Bifu Mountain costs about 4 million, although it is not as good as those mansions halfway up the mountain and on the top of the mountain, but it is not bad, if it is before the subprime mortgage crisis in later generations, it will never be less than 1 or 20 million.
Fortunately, now is the lowest time for Laomei real estate, the house is still cheap, and it will not lose money if you buy it and sell it in the future.
......
In fact, after taking a look, Li Feng is basically satisfied, especially the property at the foot of the mountain, which has a small garden and swimming pool, and a construction area of 3 or 4 hundred square meters, covering an area of thousands of square meters, 5 rooms, and a fence around it. Very good.
I immediately discussed with Anna to take a good look tomorrow before making a decision, and agreed to meet tomorrow morning to see the house.
As the business was over, everyone chatted casually, and Li Feng looked at his watch It was already noon, and then said that he was leaving.
Refusing to be retained by a few people, Li Feng took Zach and a few people out of the room, accompanied by Billy and Anna.
As soon as I stepped out of the elevator and went to the lobby on the first floor, I heard a very lively noise in the lobby, which is rare in banks.
Sure enough, there were many people standing in the hall, there were bank staff who dissuaded them, there were ordinary guests who pleaded their arguments, and security personnel were around to prevent accidents.
......
It took me to understand the situation after standing for a while, and after listening to all kinds of gossip in the field, I finally understood the situation, and it turned out that it was because of the trouble caused by the white man standing there.
Yesterday, there was a bank robbery in the store next to the Citibank Center, but the security in the lobby at the time was excellent, and the two robbers were easily eliminated without causing any damage.
Originally, everyone thought that this capable security guard should be valued and rewarded by the bank, but when he came to the bank center the next day, what greeted him was a letter of dismissal.
When I was about to leave the bank center, I was talking to my former colleague, but I happened to be heard by a customer.
And this customer happened to be a customer who experienced yesterday's robbery, and he was still very grateful to this security guard, but he was fired by the bank, so he started to fight, and the result became more and more lively.
After listening to the process, Billy also explained to Li Feng on the side, which also made him speechless for a while, no one is really to blame for this matter.
......
It turns out that due to the proliferation of guns in the United States, bank robberies occur from time to time, and it is rumored that in the 8th and 9th years, bank robberies occurred on average every day in Los Angeles, well, when he heard Billy say that bank robberies occur almost every day, Li Feng was shocked.
Think about it, if there is a bank robbery in Greater China, it will definitely be famous throughout the country, and the old Micron Los Angeles happens almost every day, and this robbery is too frequent.
Because of this, every bank is insured by an insurance company, and if you are robbed, as long as you can ensure the safety of your life, the insurance company will pay anyway.
This has also led to the fact that many robbers are actually ordinary people, many of them are bankrupt, and they can't live, maybe just one or two people dare to rush into the bank with a pistol.
Then, as long as you hand a note with robbery written on it to the bank counter, many counter employees will take the initiative to pack the money and hand it to the robber.
And yesterday's situation was basically like this, but I ran into a security guard who had just returned from the special forces, and the two robbers kicked the iron plate.
The security guard took advantage of the distraction of the two of them and was subdued on the spot, and won praise from the scene at that time.
......
At that time, the security guard was quite happy, after all, he had completed a beautiful security job and won the praise of everyone, although some bank employees looked at him a little strangely at that time.
As a result, when I came to the bank today, I was told to go to the center, and when I came, I received a letter of dismissal.
According to the bank manager, if they rob you, you just need to ensure the safety of the people in the bank, and if they rob, let them rob it, and the insurance company will compensate anyway.
What if there is a shootout on the way to subdue the robbers and someone is injured, then the bank will be responsible.
Originally, the robber took the money and left safely, and the bank did not lose anything at all, but because of your uniform, there was a threat to the lives of people, so I felt that this security guard was not up to the job, so I was fired.
Li Feng thought that the bank really did nothing wrong, after all, the bank would not lose money if it was robbed, and the process of subduing the robbers by the security guards was thrilling, if there was a little accident, a shootout, or even injured people, then the bank would be in trouble.
......
And when those customers heard what happened to the security guards before, they were uneven, which led to chaos at the scene.
