673 The royal family of a wealthy New York family
Speaking of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, perhaps the most impressive thing for Li Feng is the movie called "Smell the Fragrance and Know the Woman".
In particular, the classic scene of the male protagonist dancing tango with a beautiful vase and the two dialogue lines that will always become classics: "Where are we?" and "The focus of all civilization - Waldorf Astoria Hotel", almost exhaust the glory and prestige of Waldorf Astoria.
Of course, the Waldorf Astoria Hotel has become a member of the hotel group under the Skyline Property Group, and now Li Feng's Skyline Hotel Group has two major brands, namely the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, a 5-star luxury brand, and the Skyline Hotel, which is centered on a 5-star resort hotel.
For example, there is the famous Waldorf Astoria Hotel in downtown Los Angeles, the Skyline Hotel with tourism as the core in Santa Monica Beach in Los Angeles, and similarly, there is the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York, and there is the Skyline Hotel in Miami.
In addition to the United States, there are now two major hotel brands being built all over the world, from London to Paris, from Europe to Asia, in those world-famous cities, and in the next few years, both of them are known for their 5-star ratings.
At that time, Li Feng aimed at the 'five-star peninsula' to build the world's top hotel chain brand.
The Waldorf Astoria Hotel has become the world's top hotel chain brand with its prestige and classical decoration style, and the Skyline Hotel has also begun to become famous with its new modern and luxurious decoration, and is moving towards the top brand.
This party at Waldorf Astoria will also be attended by Li Feng in all aspects.
……
When Li Feng's motorcade arrived at the hotel, the hotel was indeed very lively, and there were already many media reporters waiting outside the hotel gate, and there were all parties gathered, including reporters who shocked all sides, as well as entertainment reporters, etc.
Today, Li Feng traveled with his iconic Rolls-Royce top-of-the-line touring cars, and the license plate has long been no secret, so Li Feng's convoy attracted the attention of the media as soon as it came.
Of course, Li Feng did not disappoint them, when he stopped at the gate of the hotel, as the security personnel dispersed, there was really an aura of a top boss arriving.
Similarly, when Li Feng appeared on the stage with the two beauties, he suddenly let everyone present take a light breath, which was indeed eyeballs.
Most of the bigwigs who arrived tonight are older, and the women who accompanied them are naturally older, but Li Feng's appearance broke this phenomenon, compared to the wealthy bigwigs and ladies who are old, Li Feng and the two girls are indeed too dazzling.
"Click, click..."
The sound of the shutter of the camera was everywhere, the flash and spotlight of the dazzling camera suddenly flashed everywhere, and he waved his hand everywhere, Li Feng walked directly into the hotel with the two girls, and then arrived at the party hall under the guidance of the hotel service staff and party guides.
"Wow... Congratulations, John!"
As soon as he entered the hall, he was greeted with a familiar joke, wasn't it Li Feng's friend, Kenny, the son of the Rockefeller family, and next to Kenny, there was also Chris from the Morgan family, who was the representative of the previous transaction with the PNC Group.
"Hi... , Kenny, long time no see, Chris, hello!"
"John, welcome!"
"Monica, Charlize, the two of you are getting more and more beautiful!"
“…”
……
Both of them are the leaders of the younger generation of the two wealthy families, and after joking with Li Feng and the two girls, Li Feng can be regarded as officially entering the party mode. Looking up, I saw a lot of familiar faces in the hall, and any one of them alone might be a famous person.
From the traditional wealthy families in the United States to the wealthy upstarts, from the military and political circles to the top of the New York government, from Wall Street to Silicon Valley, Li Feng feels that this is the heritage of the wealthy family.
Li Feng's arrival naturally attracted the attention of many people in the hall, firstly, Li Feng's strength was enough to make anyone in the hall pay attention, and secondly, Li Feng was indeed attractive and sassy enough when he came in.
Accompanied by two top stunning beauties, who is there with such treatment, after all, most of the people present are elderly, maybe most people feel in their hearts, it's good to be young, and I think I would be so graceful when I was young.
With the arrival of Li Feng, the first to come to say hello was naturally BlackRock's people, and the BlackRock management led by Larry Fink and Bill Willibe, as well as some large and small shareholders and management, came to say hello.
Then it was lively, under the leadership of Kenny and Chris, the two giants, I met the current family members of the two giants, David Rockefeller and John Morgan, not to mention old David, old friends.
As for John Morgan, it's another one called John, anyway, the name of Europe and the United States is like this, and it is a normal phenomenon for the son to be the same as the name of his father and grandfather, this 'John Morgan' is called 'John Morgan III', the son of the previous generation of Morgan at the helm of Henry Morgan (Henry Morgan is the founder of Morgan Stanley), the age is not very exaggerated, in his 60s, very low-key, and the outside world has almost never heard of it.
Although the career of the Rockefeller family at its peak was also very bullish, and the personal wealth of the founder of the Rockefeller family has always been hailed as the first person in the history of the United States, but to be honest, in terms of the degree of control of the business in the United States, the Morgan consortium at its peak is the real bull.
At its peak, the United States and even Europe and the United States were controlled by the Morgan consortium, and in the United States, more than 1/4 of the enterprises owned by the Morgan consortium, and even many of them were major shareholders or even holdings.
In Europe, the Morgan consortium is the creditor of the whole of Europe, Britain, France, Germany, etc., which country does not owe the debt of the Morgan consortium, as little as tens of millions or more than 100 million, the Morgan consortium at that time stomped its feet, and the world economic community had to tremble.
……
This was the Morgan family's means of controlling the world through the financial banking industry at that time, in fact, in the entire Morgan system, the Morgan family did not have many shares, and the entire Morgan family financial system was only billions of dollars in net assets at that time.
However, through a series of cooperation, the entire Morgan system (Morgan Consortium) united the Morgan financial system with assets of more than 30 billion US dollars at that time, and formed the Morgan Consortium with banks, securities, insurance and other financial companies as the core, and at the beginning of the 20th century, the Morgan financial system with a net worth of 30 billion US dollars could leverage at least 10 times or even dozens of times the amount of funds with various financial means, and it could indeed call for wind and rain in the world.
With the changes of history and the government's suppression of consortia, the current Morgan consortium and the Rockefeller consortium have basically disappeared, and most of the companies that were controlled at that time have successively chosen to become independent and break away from the control of the consortium.
In particular, the Morgan consortium, after all, was originally established with finance as a link, and with a series of subsequent changes, the Morgan system, which once dominated the world's financial markets, naturally collapsed.
To put it mildly, the Rockefeller family now has more wealth than the Morgan family, and the Rockefeller family has always been centered on oil and Chase, although the former oil giant - Standard Oil has been dismantled.
But even after the dismantling, Mobil has always been the center of gravity of Rockefeller's control, and the rest of the oil companies that have been spun off also have shares in the Rockefeller family, although they are no longer major shareholders.
Today's shares are too scattered, and in many secret funds, outsiders don't know about it, and these old giants choose to hide their wealth.
……
In fact, the outside world now knows the wealth of the Rockefeller family or the Morgan family, and may only see their families from the annual rich list, for example, the two major families have open family foundations, and the wealth controlled by these foundations is about 1 or 20 billion US dollars.
Li Feng's identity now can also understand some private information, the wealth of the two families is by no means just public, to say, it is still possible to increase the wealth several times, as for the specific amount, Li Feng is not very clear, so he can only guess a rough idea.
With the huge influence of the two families in the United States, New York, and Wall Street, it is impossible for anyone to underestimate the power of the two families, and therefore, after saying hello to the two big men in control of the two families, Li Feng also sat down with the two old men and chatted.
Of course, today's Li Feng's personal wealth is no longer inferior to the personal assets controlled by the two major families, it can only be said that the reborn person who is open is destined to be the son of destiny, this is a helpless thing, the old foxes of the two families naturally know Li Feng's current career achievements, otherwise the old foxes of the two families will sit down with Li Feng very calmly to chat, talk about family affairs, and joke.
