674 Tradition & Upstart

Let Theron and Bellucci go around the venue by themselves, but Li Feng sat down with the helmsmen of the two giants and started chatting, and then, several family helmsmen came over one after another, such as Richard Mellon, Pierre Dupont III, etc., and you can know who they are when you hear them.

"John, you have now completed the transaction and reached a cooperation with PNC, and you have reached a cooperation with the Rockefeller Fund and the Roosevelt Foundation before, so when will you complete a few transactions with us!" Pierre Dupont III said to Li Feng with a smile after sitting on the sidelines at this time.

"yes, it's not easy, I heard that the DuPont family owns the shares of Loma and General Motors (General Motors has shares of the DuPont, Morgan and other families), or you can sell the shares directly to me, how about it, so that the deal is made. When Li Feng heard the words of the current head of the Dupont family, his eyes suddenly rolled and he replied jokingly.

"Uh..."

"Haha... , Pierre, you want to find a bargain from Little John, it's not easy!"

“…”

"Little one, you're really... , aren't you afraid of eating too much and swallowing?"

"Hehe... , I'm young, my digestive function is too strong, I'm not afraid to swallow. Li Feng replied with a smile.

"What about me?" asked Richard Mellon, too, quipped.

"It's easier, I just saw the news of Mellon Bank these days, it is said that the market value is now more than 20 billion US dollars, or I will directly bid 30 billion, how about you sell Mellon Bank to Century Standard Chartered Bank?"

"Uh..."

"Haha..."

……

Of course, this is a joke, and the heads of the two wealthy families will naturally not let go of the family's core industry, which is just a joke.

In terms of wealth, in fact, today's Mellon and Dupont families are not inferior to Rockefeller and Morgan, the two former kings and wealthy families, and even slightly better.

Yes, if you want to say that the Rockefeller family and the Morgan family were stronger than Mellon and DuPont at the beginning, then with the decline of the Rockefeller and Morgan families, and Mellon and DuPont have continued to be brilliant, although they cannot be compared with their heyday, but today's Mellon and the Dupont family are not inferior to Morgan and the Rockefeller family.

Even in the annual Forbes family list, the wealth of the two major families is more than that of the two former kings and wealthy families, of course, Forbes is naturally just a reference, after all, many things are impossible to publish.

However, it can also be seen from this. That is, the Mellon and DuPont families are indeed better developed than Rockefeller and Morgan today.

The Mellon family has its Mellon bank as its core, and Mellon has always been under the control of the Mellon family, and the DuPont family is the same, with its own family's core industries, such as DuPont, a global chemical giant, has been in the hands of the DuPont family.

Although the Rockefeller family and the Morgan family own a large number of company shares, it is true that the two families have very few shares in financial giants such as Morgan Bank and Chase Manhattan Bank, and they can no longer control it.

The Rockefeller family is okay, at least Mobil Oil is still under control, plus many American companies, including Loma, have a certain amount of shares, and their strength is still there.

However, the Morgan family is in severe decline, and many companies have lost their status as major shareholders, and at most they retain minority shareholders, although they still have influence, but their influence has declined significantly.

……

Li Feng was chatting and farting with several big giants, but three old men appeared again in front of everyone, two of whom Li Feng is very familiar with, these two faces are not too familiar in both the past life and this life, and they are not the ones who are now caught in the anti-monopoly vortex - Microsoft's Gates classmate and the American god of wealth - Mr. Stock God.

As for the other one, Li Feng, who was an ordinary person in his previous life, may have heard of it and forgotten it, but he will not forget such a character in this life, after all, Li Feng is still messing around in the United States now, and it is natural to pay attention to such a character, it is the chairman of the United States Reserve - Alan Green.

Seeing the three of them coming over to say hello, Li Feng and the others immediately stopped chatting, and they also began to say hello and greet.

If the Rockefeller, Morgan, Mellon, DuPont and other families represent the traditional wealthy families of the United States, then such as Warren Buffett, Gates, and Li Feng are today's American upstarts.

To be honest, the rise of the upstarts in most cases must represent the decline of the old brands, which is what history tells us, in the same way, as the rise of Li Feng, Gates and others is naturally opposed to these old families, of course, smart people will always have a way, since you can't stop your rise, then join forces and cooperate with each other.

Compared with Li Fenglai, Gates's retreat is smaller, after all, Gates has a Microsoft in his hands, although one Microsoft is enough, after all, Microsoft now monopolizes the global commercial operating system market, and the software high-tech industry is known for its high profits.

It can be said that Microsoft's huge profits have made the entire American upper class jealous, and perhaps this is one of the biggest reasons why Microsoft has to face antitrust investigations.

In '95, Gates owned more than 4 layers of shares in Microsoft, and now, although the value is getting higher and higher, the shares are only about half of the 95 years, and they will be even rarer in the future. If you really want to talk about it, Gates's worth has definitely shrunk.

Originally, Li Feng's conflict with these traditional giants would be more likely, after all, Li Feng's current career has begun to involve the industries of these traditional giants, such as military industry, automobiles, energy and other industries are considered to be industries ruled by those traditional giants.

Fortunately, Li Feng chose to cooperate with giants such as Rockefeller and Roosevelt from the beginning, and Li Feng chose the blind spots of these giants in the industry, so as to give Li Feng opportunities, such as Rolls-Royce and a number of luxury supercars in Europe as the entry point, etc., to avoid direct collision with these traditional giants in the United States.

……

Among Li Feng, Gates, and Buffett, Buffett is the most comfortable, he guards his own investment company, and then goes around to invest in the shares and stocks of those large companies, which will not offend anyone, and even become a guest of honor in major companies, after all, he has a reputation.

"Allen, since September, the Federal Reserve has cut interest rates three times in a row and cut interest rates quickly, which surprised us, but it was also a stroke of genius and a beautiful job.

The United States has been spared the influence of Asia, and you have won praise from the whole country and the world, and everyone here should thank you so much that we have all avoided losses. Old David said with a smile to Fed Chairman Allen.

Since he became chairman of the Federal Reserve in the late 80s, Allen has been known for his shrewdness, and he has indeed made outstanding achievements; as soon as he took office, he faced the financial crisis of 87 years and the stock market crash, and was ordered to relax the monetary policy, stop the stock market from continuing to develop viciously, and steadily set the course of the big ship of the United States.

In '94, he raised interest rates again and again, which was considered "insane", and just last month, he calmly responded to the financial crisis, cutting interest rates three times quickly and quickly, thus saving the United States from the financial crisis and finally containing the contagion.

This brilliance has led him to be called the "god of finance" by the coal, and Alan Green adheres to anti-inflationism and has the courage to break through the shackles of economic theory. According to statistics, among the more than 400 senior executives in the United States, the support rate for Alan Green is as high as 97 percent.

"National Watch" magazine said that the economy is like the military, and no one is an omnipotent and invincible god on this battlefield, but Alan Green is the most brilliant commander, and his judgment is more right and less wrong, which is really rare.

Most Americans agree that Alan Green is the "second most influential person in the United States" after the president.

……

There is a saying among people in the global financial circles: "As soon as Alan Green speaks, global investors will prick up their ears", "When Allen Green sneezes, global investors will catch a cold", because his position is too sensitive, which is destined to become the center of all kinds of storms.

This old man, who looks thinner than most American imperialists, modestly responds to everyone's praise, and can win everyone's favor.
