519 Citi of Wall Street Bigwigs
Of course, when it comes to the university he plans to go to, he has already decided on it. First of all, the first point is to choose to study in Los Angeles, and there are only a few top universities in the Los Angeles area, such as USC, UCLA, and Caltech.
There is no doubt that Caltech first ruled out, although in terms of world university rankings, Caltech is more famous, but Li Feng did not have the consciousness to do research, and then increased UCLA and USC.
Although UCLA is known as the cradle of talents in business and finance, high-tech industries, and film arts, it is a public school, and the staff is too large, and Li Feng and his family finally chose to give up.
In the end, only USC remained, and USC also met Li Feng's psychological expectations, USC's business school has long remained in the top 10 in the United States, and the School of Public Policy has remained in the top 3 in the United States.
Yes, Li Feng is going to choose a major in public policy management first, and at the same time take an MBA in business administration or something, after all, according to his life plan, obviously, it is impossible to do research work, so the nature of business is naturally the first choice.
In the future, if you have no pursuit in business, maybe it is not impossible to engage in politics, public management is also a professional counterpart, and USC is a private university and school, which is really in line with your own heart.
……
"David, Del, John, didn't interrupt your conversation?"
No matter what, Li Feng's side is always the focus of the party, no, just when Li Feng was chatting with the management of two famous universities, someone came up to say hello.
"Hi... Lead, Sandy, Damon, you're here!"
"Hello Sandy and Lead!"
“…”
Li Feng, Davy Sr. and Del all greeted and responded to the visitor, but it turned out that the person who came was John Reid, the CEO of Citigroup, and Sandywell, the two bigwigs of the Traveler Group, Sandy Weir and Jamie Dimon.
After a few greetings, the two university leaders soon greeted them with a smile and left wisely.
"Lead, thank you for your help from Citi!" Li Feng first said to the current CEO of Citi.
"It's nothing, John, it's just a mutual benefit. ”
"Lead, Sandy, seeing that you are all here together, it seems that your merger is almost over, when will it be announced?"
By the way, isn't this time the time for Citigroup and Traveler to merge Hearing old David's words, Li Feng immediately reacted, and thought after a shock in his heart.
……
In 98 years, Citigroup merged with Travelers Group to form Citigroup, which became the world's largest financial group at that time, and the total assets of the two companies reached as much as 700 billion US dollars.
That's right, at this time, the financial banking group did not have the assets of trillions of dollars in later generations, and the merged Huaqi Group became the world's largest financial group, with assets of only 700 billion US dollars.
The combined value of the two companies is only 70 billion US dollars, and Citigroup and Traveler are basically one-to-one mergers, which means that the two companies are merged at a valuation of about 35 billion US dollars. The merger between Citi and Traveler was a major event that shook the American financial community.
According to the estimates of recent financial magazines, Li Feng's CSCB Group is also valued at about 30 billion US dollars, with total assets of nearly 300 billion US dollars, that is to say, the CSCB Group at this time is close to the strength of Citigroup, which has not yet been merged.
Of course, none of the four major banks under CSCB Holding Group have yet to be listed, but they have begun to prepare for the listing plan one after another. No way, this is one of the plans that was determined at the time of the acquisition, and it can be regarded as one of the conditions for the acquisition.
Obviously, the recent major event on Wall Street is naturally the merger of Citigroup and Traveler Group, which is a major event that can affect Wall Street, and Davy Sr., as the helmsman of the Rockefeller family, naturally cares, after all, Wall Street's Chase Manhattan Bank is the core of the family.
……
"David, basically negotiated, just the last bit of objection, but it's not a big problem, at most one month, we will officially sign the contract and announce it to the public. Sandywell, now the most famous big man on Wall Street, replied with a smile.
"Oh... Congratulations!"
"Congratulations... Congratulations!"
“…”
Others are concerned about Sandywell and John Reed, after all, the two are now at the helm of Citi and Voyager Group, respectively, and after the merger, they are also the co-helms of the new Citigroup.
But Li Feng is more concerned about the young Jamie Dimon on the side, Li Feng really has an impression of this big man, and he is the helmsman of the world's largest financial group **** in the future, Li Feng is naturally excited.
I have to say that Li Feng is now also thinking about his own CSCB Holding Group, and it must be admitted that although Wu Jianmin is really good, Wu Jianmin is more capable of retail banking, and in terms of other financial investment fields, compared with those top bosses on Wall Street, he is indeed weaker than others.
With the size of CSCB and the scale of a comprehensive financial group, Wu Jianmin is becoming more and more powerless, fortunately, Li Feng has the help of all the heads of his investment companies, but this is obviously not a long-term solution.
There is another point to consider, although Li Feng can let Wu Jianmin be at the helm, but after all, this is the United States, and it may be more suitable if the president is white.
In fact, even Wu Jianmin himself mentioned it to Li Feng, saying that he hoped to operate the original business, and the position of president of the holding group was willing to give up.
……
Li Feng is actually thinking about candidates in his heart, and there is no doubt that the second leader of the Traveler Group is a very suitable candidate.
The most important thing is that Li Feng knows that the current close relationship between Sandy Will and Jamie Dimon, who are like father and son on Wall Street, is no longer close, although the relationship is estranged, but in the face of such a major event as the merger of Citi and Traveler, the two can still maintain restraint.
However, Li Feng knew that it would not be long before Jamie Dimon would be forced to leave the new Citigroup after the merger, and in Li Feng's view, this was his opportunity.
Later, people were able to control a financial giant like ****, and did a very good job, so they could naturally help Li Feng control the CSCB Group, if they could pull it to the CSCB Holding Group to help themselves control it, it would be too perfect.
"Sandy, it's a pity, my Century Standard Bank is still too late, if only it was earlier, maybe you can dump Leader at that time and merge with my CSCB, it's a pity, it's a pity, you picked up cheap!"
"Haha... , John, this can't be helped, who made you late!"
“…”
"Yes, I've been worrying about the company lately, and there is a lack of a person at the helm of the CSCB group, Sandy and Lead, one of you will always quit after the merger, or which of you will come to CSCB to help me, it will be perfect, how about it?" Li Feng joked to the two with a smile again.
Of course, when Li Feng was jokingly proposing, he paid a little attention to Jamie Dimon on the side, and when Li Feng said that the two of them came to CSCB, Li Feng found that Jamie Dimon's expression changed a little.
As the saying goes, the speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional, obviously, Dimon may have been touched at this time. Again, this is Li Feng's purpose.
……
"John, forget it, we're not leaving Citi!"
"Oh, it's still called Citi after the merger?"
"yes, Citi is a nice name, isn't it?"
