Chapter 247: Fierce Argument
The content of this telegram is the content of the conversation between Jiang Xinxu and Frankl on the phone yesterday.
It's just that at the end of the telegram, Frankl added a sentence. It was he who reminded and built his sister that if the situation in the Soviet Union deteriorated further, he asked his sister not to hesitate to stay there because she believed Jiang Xinwei's words too much, but to immediately pack up and leave Moscow to return home.
Obviously, this is Frankl's concern for his sister, and in pursuit of profit, he still defeats greed with family affection, and would rather lose the bank at all than put his sister in danger.
There is a difference of five time zones between Moscow and China, and when Jiang Xinxu is already noon here, it is still early in the morning here for Mayoni.
However, because of the dramatic change in Moscow, Mayoni and the other executives and shareholders of the bank hardly slept, thinking and discussing whether to withdraw or stay. While Mayoni and the executives hired in the Soviet Union and a handful of others insisted on staying and waiting for the situation to change, the shareholders from Italy and most of the executives hired from Europe and the United States tended to go, believing that there was no need to gamble with their lives for a small profit.
The opinions of the two sides are very different, and neither can convince anyone.
However, as the top executives of banks invested by other countries and the top executives of enterprises invested by other countries in the Soviet Union left Moscow one after another to return to China, the executives around Mayoni began to be more inclined to pack up and leave immediately, and preferred to close the bank counters and leave only their mobile phones to read novels.
Originally, Mayoni wanted to stay, and she was reluctant to stop the banking business of Rijin Doujin, but seeing that most people were leaving, she also began to waver, if it wasn't for the timely arrival of Frankl's telegram from Jiang Xinwei, she might have begun to order everyone to leave.
Saw Mayoni looking at the telegram. Several executives stared intently at her face, trying to read the contents of the telegram from her face and to know her final decision first.
Seeing the smile on her gloomy face, and seeing the determination in her eyes beginning to appear, the Soviet executives who were ready to stay, reluctant to give up the big profits they were making at the moment, suddenly became happy, and those who were afraid of war in the Soviet Union. The people who were afraid that they would lose their fortune here were even more alarmed, and their hearts began to sink, and they all turned their eyes to the old man beside Mayonie.
Seeing everyone looking at him, and seeing Mayonie's eyes raised from the telegram and about to speak, the old man hurriedly said, "Mayonie, grandpa, I want to talk to you alone." ”
Mayoni's words were interrupted by the old man, and she was about to continue, but when she saw her grandfather staring at her sternly, many executives also looked at her dissatisfied. I had to stop the words that had come to my lips and said, "Okay, grandpa, I'm willing to talk to you alone." ”
Because of the good efficiency of the bank, and the management of the bank has taken many new measures, especially in attracting customers, the bank has absorbed more ruble deposits than other European and American banks that came in a few months earlier than this bank, and several shareholders who invested in this bank were overjoyed and encouraged Veroni, who had just returned to Italy, to return again. I want to come here to see what it is.
When they came here, they found that the situation here was really good, even more than they imagined. The profits obtained are also very rich, and I am even more happy.
It's a pity that they caught up with this coup d'état, and for a while they were so frightened that their hands and feet were cold, their faces were pale, and they shouted one by one that they wanted to return to China immediately with the funds. I regret coming to check it out, and I regret investing my money in this country. I'm worried about losing both people and money.
As the two of them walked to the other office, a bank vice president shouted to the old man in the back, "Veroni, I depend on you for all my family's property." Please show your wisdom to deal with this matter, and we must immediately retreat back to our country. ”
As soon as his words fell, another shareholder who came with Veroni to check on the situation also hurriedly said: "Veroni. You should know what kind of country the Soviet Union was, they used to confiscate all the rich people's property, and now the putschists want to go back to their communist system. ”
"War is certainly inevitable. We can't afford to lose our lives for money. Know that the board of directors of your investment bank in Lyon was opposed to investing in the USSR because it was worried about the situation in the USSR. Now that the situation is as uncertain as they expected, we should leave immediately. God will punish the ...... of the greedy"
"Go back to China, even if I don't want any of my possessions here, I'll leave. ”
……
When Mayoni closed her office and shut out the shouts of the executives, Veroni said sincerely, "My granddaughter, do you hear their voices?...... Where did you get this telegram? Does the content of the telegram persuade you to stay? Can I take a look?"
Mayoni hesitated, handed the telegram to Veroni, and said, "We have to stay, this is an opportunity." ”
Villani pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, quickly looked at the text on the telegram, and suddenly laughed sarcastically: "Mayoni, you are really confused, how can you believe his words, you think he is a god, saying that this coup will be subsided in ten days, do you think this coup is just a few executives within the company quarreling? Even a few executives can't calm down in a short time, right?
I can tell you with great certainty, impossible! How can such a big country be pacified in a short period of time? Also, you see, he actually asked us to help Ye Liqin, you know what kind of person Ye Liqin is, to put it bluntly, no matter how powerful he is, he is just a small prince, even if we help one person and tie up with one person, we should also find people headed by both sides of the coup d'état, how can we find a little person who is almost irrelevant? It's just nonsense. ”
If it weren't for what he said later, Mayoni might have really changed her mind, worried that once a big country like the Soviet Union became turbulent, she didn't know how normal the year of the monkey would be, and she didn't know what level of turmoil it would be, maybe not only the Soviet Union would fall into a civil war, but the world could also break out into a big war, and maybe even a third world war.
Because the Soviet Union was so big, too strong, too terrifying, it was like a crocodile in a small pond, even if it just turned over, the leaves floating in the pond could be hit by the ripples on the surface of the water, and the ants clinging to the leaves could not escape.
However, when her father heard his son Frankel relay Jiang Xinwei's words, he said that the price of crude oil would fall soon after the United States announced its attack on Iraq.
Later, when Jiang Xinwei denied his plan to speculate in gold and said that he should come to the Soviet Union to take risks, didn't he secretly say that he did not understand the economy and quietly scolded him for talking nonsense? As a result, the world gold price has not changed at all, but he has made a jaw-dropping profit by opening a bank here.
A qiē was exactly as he expected.
"He's not going to talk nonsense!" Mayoni made up her mind and said to her grandfather Veroni, "Grandpa! I think he's right, and I've decided to do what he does!"
Shocked and angry, Veloni couldn't help but shout: "What? Do you really listen to him? He is thousands of miles away from Moscow, and he doesn't know anything about what is going on here, at most he sees a little news on TV, and he knows more about this place than watching a TV series." We ourselves can't tell what the situation is going to be during the day today, how does he know? Do you think he really is God?"
Mayoni's heart moved, and she said: Is he really a god?
However, she suppressed these unrealistic thoughts and persuaded seriously: "Grandpa, we came to the Soviet Union to set up a bank because we were taking risks, and we did not encounter any risks in the past, but obtained benefits that we did not expect. Now that we've just encountered a little risk, we're retreating? So what kind of risk are we taking?"
Villaoni asked rhetorically: "Isn't it better not to take risks? Do you have to take huge risks? Do you think that we are not taking risks in front of us, we have taken risks all the same, just because we are operating well, just because the Soviets have not yet been in turmoil, and this is what we have gained." ”
"I'm not saying we have to take risks, I'm saying that our business has finally started, we have connections, we have networks, and the people here believe in us, but now we are scared because of a little risk, it's really not worth it," Mayoni said. Wouldn't it be nice for us to act with the courage and determination that we had before we decided to come to the Soviet Union, just to see that we were just beginning our adventure, just to see our banks enter the Soviet Union?"
"But now that we're profitable, we're going back with the money we're making now, and we've made a lot of money from our investments, much more than we would have invested elsewhere, so it's a very successful investment," Veroni said. If we fail, all our previous profits will be gone, and our lives may be lost. No amount of investment profit is worth our lives. Mayoni, I advise you to retreat, and if the Soviet Union can really calm down, we will come back when the situation is stable. ”
He paused for a moment and continued to persuade: "My little flower cat, you have been in the Soviet Union for some time, have you not found that the Soviet Union has rotted to the roots, do you not know that it is hopeless? Now their people are already impoverished, and they are about to explode. This coup d'état may be a fuse, and with a bang, we will all be blown into meat sauce......"
