"Hey, Mark, how's it going?" Jamie Dimon greeted Markwell warmly when he saw Markwell beside Shania.

Mark Welpi said with a smile: "Hey, Jamie, long time no see, you look good, congratulations on your promotion to vice president." ”

Sandyvale had just promoted Jamie Dimon to vice president of operations for Travelers Group last month, and to Markwell's hard time, the appointment was almost unanimously approved by the board.

Jamie Dimon smiled, "Sandy has been under a lot of stress lately and is starting to gain weight again. ”

Markwell said in a weird manner: "Jamie is worthy of the famous 'Sandyton', and seems to know my father better than I do. ”

Jamie Dimon was stunned, although he knew that these two children of Sandywell were not so kind to him, it was the first time that he had sneered in person.

Jamie Dimon dismisses the pestle, pats Markwell on the shoulder, smiles, and turns to leave.

Mark Weir looked at Jamie Dimon's departing back, his eyes full of jealousy.

Zhang Chen's flight to San Francisco was delayed for nearly five hours due to heavy snow in Kyoto, and when Zhang Chen boarded the plane, he was already exhausted, and after reading a book for a while, he fell asleep.

In addition to him this time, Shen Nanpeng, Wu Tian, Xiao Lele, Chen Yongjian, and Zhou Kui also went to San Francisco.

Chen Yongjian and Zhou Kui are investment assistants just recruited by Suihuang Capital in China, and the reason why Zhang Chen brought them to the United States is also to let them feel what the real capital operation is all about, and participate in the specific operation of the project, even if it is edified, it will be of great help to their growth.

Except for Zhang Chen and Shen Nanpeng, everyone else is economy class, Zhang Chen has flown five times in the past six months, four of which are Air China flights, and the flight attendants on the plane have an impression of this young man.

Wu Tian and Xiao Lele went abroad for the first time, and the procedures were more troublesome, but fortunately, Zhang Chen had already asked Wu Tian to go to the embassy to apply for a visa, plus a business travel certificate issued by Tinder, Wu Tian finally got a three-month visa before departure.

After sleeping for more than three hours, Zhang Chen woke up and found that there was an extra blanket on his body, Zhang Chen wanted to go to the bathroom and picked up the blanket, but found that there was a note pressed underneath with a pager number written on it.

Zhang Chen smiled, casually rolled up the note, and threw it into the garbage bag.

There was a time when almost all the main wives of domestic A teams were flight attendants, not without reason.

After the plane landed, the business car of Tindersource pulled everyone on board and went directly to Palo Alto.

Before Zhang Chen returned to China, he asked Su Zhuohui to buy two more houses next to his villa in Palo Alto, in the name of the Sackfield Foundation, which is also one of Zhang Chen's shell companies, registered in Netahua, mainly to avoid taxes.

Originally, Zhang Chen planned to use these two houses as incubators for free for the Silicon Valley entrepreneurs he invested in, but now it happens that the team has arrived in the United States, and he just takes out a set for Shen Nanpeng and others to live in.

Because the plane was late, it was already evening when they arrived in Palo Alto, and after everyone settled down, Bellankefen arranged for everyone to have dinner, and he also reported a very important situation to Zhang Chen.

The place to eat was a Vietnamese restaurant, and Bellankefen carried a notebook with him and showed Zhang Chen an email.

Zhang Chen looked at it, his face became solemn, "Have you found out who sent it?"

Bellankefen shook his head: "I can't find it, the other party is very cautious and uses at least two layers of proxy servers." ”

Zhang Chen groaned: "Do you think what is said in this email is true or false?"

Blancuffen took a sip of pea liqueur, "It doesn't seem fake, and the other party can know that Sandyvale sent Jamie Dimon to negotiate, it should be someone from within the Travelers Group, and it's also the core layer." ”

Zhang Chen said with a smile: "If it's true, it will be too helpful for our negotiations, and almost all of the traveler's hole cards will be exposed." ”

Bellankefen also nodded excitedly: "I think whether it's true or not, it's actually not bad for us, now we take the initiative, if we can't get our consent, they can only forcibly buy, this is the last thing they want to see." ”

Zhang Chen wiped his mouth, "Okay, let's make three plans, we can throw one out of the test first." ”

"The Travelers Group is notoriously united, and it has been reported that all of Traveler's employees call the company home and have the interests of the traveller at heart," Bellankefen lamented. How can there be such a thing as a direct leak from the inside? It's incredible. ”

Zhang Chen said lightly: "It's not strange, everyone has selfish intentions, Sandywell's ability is indeed very strong, he and Jamie Dimon are the real core competitiveness of the Traveler Group, but because of this, the management power of the Traveler Group is extremely weakened, and everyone has become Sandywell's mouthpiece, and it is inevitable that some people will be dissatisfied with it." ”

Blancfin shook his head: "I still can't understand these leakers, the company is finished, what good can they do?"

Zhang Chen sneered: "I think, if the information is true, the other party should want to harm Jamie Damon." ”

Bellankefen nodded: "As I thought, if it's just a dissatisfaction with Sandyvae, this approach will have no effect." And now it's Jamie Dimon in charge, and if Jamie Dimon doesn't perform well, his status in Sandyvae's mind may plummet, and only Jamie Dimon's potential opponent will do that. ”

Zhang Chen added: "And this person should be the person next to Sandyvae and Jamie Dimon, otherwise he would not have gotten such a core secret." ”

Blankefen played with taste: "It looks like it's about to come out." ”

Zhang Chen smiled: "Since the other party gave us this big gift, how can we not laugh?"

Bellankefen also laughed, startling a few people at the table next to him.

"By the way, boss, will you participate in the negotiations with Jamie Dimon the day after tomorrow?" Blankefen whispered.

Zhang Chen thought for a while and shook his head: "Sandyvae sent Jamie Dimon to do nothing more than to finish the battle, but the more this is the case, the more we have to delay, I won't participate first, you take the team to talk, so that we can have more leeway." ”

Bellankefen nodded: "I think so too." ”

Zhang Chen raised his glass: "Looking forward to your good news." ”

Bellankefen smiled and clinked his glass with Zhang Chen: "Cheers." ”

At the same time, Jamie Dimon's Voyager had just landed at San Jose Airport.

"Finks, what a nice place to be on the West Coast, every time you come here, you get lucky. Jamie Dimon took a deep breath of salty air and said to the assistant beside him.

"Luck comes from your poor ability against your opponents. Finks said briefly.

"Hahaha. Jamie Dimon laughed, "Okay, you're right, show those old hats what real negotiation is!"

The arrogance of the American upper class, especially in the financial circle, is not inferior to that of the domestic rich second generation, and it is even better. It doesn't matter what parents do, it's all to work their own and so on.

The class strain in the United States is much more serious than in China, and a book friend said in a chapter review that the Internet wave has extended the life of the United States for 30 years, and has also allowed China to develop for 20 years, and the basic Internet dividends have been divided between China and the United States.

The Internet wave is the last chance to break the class shackles from the bottom up, so everyone who reads the book, see if there is a chance to catch this little tail.
