"Mr. George, Mr. Will has sent me an invitation to have lunch with you. ”

As George packed up his office and was about to leave, Carlos pushed the door in and walked in front of George.

"Did he react in any way when you told him what I was asking for?"

Hearing Carlos's words, George was stunned for a moment, stood there and thought about it, and then asked, he didn't expect Will to be so impatient, originally thought that the other party would be frightened by his request and need to wait a few days, after all, Citi people know the relationship between the San Francisco Chronicle and Citi, even if it is now a shareholder, the San Francisco Chronicle has reined in the big aspect, and many small actions in private are still continuous.

In the face of such a discordant situation, it is no longer up to his deputies in one region to call the shots, and at the very least, he has to report to the headquarters and talk to him after the headquarters decides.

"It's less than an hour before lunchtime, you can reply to him, I have booked a table at the Peninsula Western Restaurant, and I hope he will come. ”

Seeing Carlos shaking his head, George didn't dwell on why he made such a decision, but directly set the position, he knew that this was a temptation, since it was a temptation, then he had to take the initiative.

He doesn't know much about psychological warfare in shopping malls, but he knows that the initiative in negotiation must be in his own hands, otherwise he will be very passive after being seized of the initiative.

Although I have not seen or heard Will's name, the person who can serve as the main deputy of Citi Asia Pacific definitely has his own advantages, and once he takes such a person lightly, the initiative will be immediately reversed.

"Okay, I'll go inform him now, and by the way, set the spot. ”

Carlos had been in contact with George for a long time, and knew some of George's habits, although these habits seemed a little redundant to him, but he knew that the higher the hierarchy, the more important this aspect became, so he didn't say anything, and walked directly outside.

Returning to his seat, he lit a cigarette, and after a moment of quiet thought, George snuffed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, grabbed his coat and walked outside.

Being targeted by a small crocodile under a predator is also not so simple.

Although they concluded that they were profit-oriented, they eliminated Citi's B-rated common stock and replaced it with a stake in the San Francisco Chronicle, which they had so hard to get their hands on, but they still felt the pressure when it came to the end.

There is no way that the foundation is too shallow, the chips are too few, if there is no Watt family behind him, he may have disarmed early, no way, as long as he is still mixed in the financial world, even if some things are fancied, when the strength is not enough, he can only look at it, and he can't touch it, and once he touches it, maybe something unpredictable will happen.

After shopping for a bottle of '72 California wine at a nearby winery, I headed to The Peninsula Hotel.

After a few days of stepping into the Peninsula Hotel, George's mood was completely different from his previous arrival, he was a guest before, and now he is one of the hosts, although he is not the only host, it is not bad for him to be one of the hosts at this stage.

Some things need to be done step by step, and if you want to eat a fat person in one bite, you may have indigestion.

Declare his name at the door of the western restaurant, and the waiter directly leads George to the set position, and when George is ready, he will take the red wine away and go to the decanting.

Not long after George sat down, a middle-aged foreigner with blond hair came to George's table under the guidance of the waiter.

"I think you must be Mr. Carter George, and I'm Michael Swell

When I met you in person, I realized why Kerry always said that he was old and should retire.

Now standing here I feel the same way. ”

The blonde middle-aged man stared at George for a second or two when he saw George, and then took the lead in reaching out his hand, and said to George with a slightly surprised and exaggerated expression on his face.

"Hello Mr. Will, I'm Carter George, you can call me George.

Your compliment is the greatest reward for me, and it is a great honor for me to receive your invitation to lunch, and I hope you don't blame me for choosing this place on my own initiative. ”

George stretched out his hand and shook the other's hand, then parted and pointed to the opposite seat.

"No, no, I'm not saying a kind thing, you yourself are much younger than in the photo, and if I hadn't seen you in person, I don't think anyone would have believed that such a young man would have taken a bite of the most tender and delicious beef under the gaze of a group of people.

Wall Street believes in prodigies, in geniuses, but your operations show us a completely different side of you from those genius prodigies.

Knowing how to advance and retreat, being able to stick to their beliefs in the face of major interests, not blindly pursuing the maximization of interests, and at the right time, in exchange for real money, in that crazy time, not everyone can do it.

After hearing about your deeds, Sandy once had the idea of hiring you to Citi, but your grades were too dazzling, and many people on Wall Street were staring at you, so that he was stillborn before he could start. ”

After Michael Swell sat down, he waved his hand at George repeatedly, indicating that he was not polite, but genuinely telling his feelings.

A person who can control his desires, does not lose himself in the face of huge interests, and has an accurate vision to calculate everything extremely accurately and decisively, is a person who wants to be obtained by any investment bank, company, and fund.

With the existence of such people, shareholders can get more benefits, rather than the little pitiful dividends that do not satisfy them after the conflict of profits and losses.

"Thank you Mr. Sandy and Mr. Will for your attention, for me it's just luck, there is a very classic idiom in Huaxia, "fall into the pocket for safety" all the benefits, in my view only the real into the pocket is real, the things on the books, I never really look at the value, that is just a reference for us.

I like maximizing profits, too, but I prefer Franklin to the numbers that exist in an electronic calculator.

Only Franklin could calm my mind and not worry about what would happen in the next moment. ”

George waved the waiter who was standing aside and poured wine into the goblet of the old fox who was eager to put on his top hat as soon as they met, and then poured it for himself.

"This is the wine I found in Xiangjiang in '72 from a California estate, and I think this wine is only the most suitable for us from the United States, and it will only be ruin in their hands. ”
