Chapter 294: Cooperation in New York (4).

Vice President of Citibank Okar, the first person George met when he returned to the United States at Christmas, the old man's ability to be trusted by Sandywell for a long time speaks volumes about his abilities.

After hanging up the phone, the corners of George's mouth curled slightly, no one was a fuel-efficient lamp, he coveted the huge positions he still held on the NASDAQ, but he wanted to mortgage them to Citi loans, and use these loans to snipe at Sun Microsystems, and the massive bubble squeeze that it caused again.

Although some do not conform to the rules, but it is definitely a win-win good thing, such a thing as violating the rules, in Wall Street can be said to be staged every day, for large consortia and investment banks, the law is tailored for them, as long as needed, hundreds of lawyers can be used to deal with it at any time, and even promote the amendment of the law.

This is the charm of capital, and it is also one of the great benefits of living in a capitalist society.

Many people in this world say that they are enslaving money, but in fact, the opposite is true, they have fallen into the urn of money and power, and have been enslaved by them unknowingly and become their slaves.

Now George is also one of the enslaved ones, but he is thinking about the beautiful stage of getting out of enslavement to enslave others.

Where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, and no one can say clearly what rivers and lakes are, and George also doesn't understand, he only knows that Wall Street is a manifestation of rivers and lakes.

The place he agreed with Okar was in a café in Uptown Manhattan, not far from Citibank's headquarters.

This time, George took Arthur alone, and the rest of the people were waiting at the hotel.

By the time George arrived, Okar was already waiting in a 50-year-old café frequented by Wall Street bigwigs and an important place for communication and conversation on Wall Street.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. ”

George walked over and gave a gentle hug to Okar, who had already spotted him and stood up with his arms outstretched, and then sat down across from Okar in a sincere apology.

"No, no, no, you're not late, it's twenty minutes before the agreed time.

The local Green Mountain coffee here is good, why don't you try a cup? ”

Okar put away the newspaper on the coffee table, glanced at the time of the watch on his wrist, and said with a smile.

It was a great pleasure for George to be able to wait for him twenty minutes early, even though he had been here for ten minutes.

"Of course, I'm an American, and it's right to support U.S. agricultural products, and when we were in school, we used to do a serious analysis of agricultural commodities

At that time, I knew about Green Mountain Coffee, and entrusted someone to buy a bag of coffee beans in the production area, and processed it myself, which tasted quite good.

It's just a pity that I haven't found anyone to do it until now, which has to be said to be a pity. ”

George did not resist Okar's proposal, as he said, Green Mountain coffee did enter his list, and cited, but Green Mountain coffee is still a little bit different from the real Blue Mountain coffee, and the taste is not as mellow as Blue Mountain, and he has not tasted it after quoting it a few times.

But he has studied both Okal and Sandywell, although Sandwell is a bigwig who puts interests first and has a high status on Wall Street, he is very supportive of American goods, and it can be said that he is a little patriot on Wall Street.

It's just that his patriotic way is to plunder the wealth of ordinary Americans while vigorously promoting American agricultural products, wanting to make the United States add a coffee in addition to potatoes, wheat and other commodities.

Therefore, Citibank's headquarters has formed a certain atmosphere, many employees choose Green Mountain coffee in the coffee machine during work, and they put aside the Blue Mountain coffee, but after work, they sit on the balcony or in the café with the Blue Mountain, while busy while sipping, washing their tormented stomach.

"Wow, I met someone who has the same goal as us, which makes me very happy, and I think as long as we promote it together, it will be achieved one day. ”

Okar picked up the coffee in front of him and gestured to the coffee that the waiter had already brought to George, and said with an exaggerated expression.

My family knows about their own affairs, and if it weren't for Sandywell's vigorous promotion and demonstration, I'm afraid few people would like to taste Green Mountain coffee, which tastes a little worse than Blue Mountain.

Americans are all about enjoyment, and they don't let their lives be wronged, unless you're poor and don't have any choice.

What's more important is that this is Manhattan, Wall Street, and one of the places with the highest per capita income in the United States.

Currying favor with leaders is the universal norm in the world, even in the United States, a country that boasts of human rights and freedom.

It's just that their sycophants are not so explicit, but choose another way, after all, in addition to ability, there is also a way of life in the world to get promoted by please, in order to make up for their shortcomings.

"I think so, we all have a heart for the good of America, and we are on the same page on that goal. ”

George smiled slightly, took a sip of the coffee in the cup, and after putting it back in its place, he said lightly.

Okar clearly expressed what he meant, and George, who had this heart, of course wanted to respond.

Now he is a baby in front of a large consortium like Citigroup, and when he is not yet able to be equal to them, low-key and humble are the right principles.

As for how much of Okar's words are true, only the ghosts know.

Now he wants to make his own money, he wants to hold himself, after all, the huge amount of cash in his hands and the huge amount of income that can be cashed out at any time, the hungry wolves on Wall Street who smell fishy are staring at it, but because he doesn't have much intersection with them, and he can't get his own thoughts, he hasn't taken action.

When he was in Los Angeles, Wells Fargo once offered George to deposit all the cash in Wells Fargo or hand it over to them to take care of, in their words, George was also a shareholder of Wells Fargo anyway, and he was a shareholder with a lot of shares, and he should support the bank he invested in for his own benefit.

George didn't promise them, Wells Fargo was essentially a good partner to work with, but their conservative and steady style was not suitable for the current George.

He is familiar with the law of economic development in the next few years, and also knows the future economic trend and upcoming events, which are opportunities that can bring a lot of benefits to it, the so-called conservatism does not apply to him, what he needs is to be able to lay the future memory now, he can still crisscross the Quartet, can travel the world of capital.

At this time, he wanted to seize this wave of golden age, make a lot of money, and enrich his cash flow in a few times, and there were a lot of companies he wanted to invest in, but the green and beloved Franklin in his hands was not enough to support his investment, especially when he didn't want to share his profits in the early stage.
