Richard Furd has been very careful lately, even if he is staying at home, he does not forget to hire a company that specializes in security to take care of his and his family's safety. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoBecause he knows what he has done, and how what he has done will anger those opponents, especially the consortium led by Rockefeller, who are always trying to get rid of him.

Originally, he didn't plan to come to this point, after all, he was once the top handful of people in the American capital consortium, and the shares of Lehman Brothers in his hands were worth $5 or 6 billion at the peak of the market value, and his annual investment dividends and personal income through Lehman Brothers were also as high as hundreds of millions of dollars.

However, in particular, the big capitalists led by the Rockefeller consortium behind Citigroup made him feel cold deeply about what they did to him after the outbreak of the financial crisis. Yes!

"Tell Walker that there's no need to talk about it, does he still want to throw out a few bones like last time, and just reach out and command me to run over like a dog and excitedly bring him back?"

Richard thought about it, anyway, he can't stay in the United States, just wait for this time to end, after getting his part of the benefits, he will immediately go abroad, find a place where no one can find him, and live in seclusion for the rest of his life, and this place is the East.

Li Mubai had promised to give him $200 million in profits after the fact, on the condition that he would pledge most of the high-quality assets to Bank of America, controlled by a California consortium, while Lehman Brothers was still bankrupt, and make all the so-called agreements with Citigroup and Morgan public, which Richard agreed.

Because Richard, who is mired in the quagmire of Lehman Brothers' plummeting stock price, has no money himself, and most of his worth is trapped in the financial crisis in the form of stocks and investments, coupled with huge losses in private investment, most of the cash has been lost in the stock market, to put it mildly, he is now only left with the glory on the surface, and secretly actually owes a lot of debt, if it were not for the Bank of America through its partners in the United Kingdom, with the Union Bank of Switzerland to transfer him $50 million, I am afraid that he would not even be able to pay the salary of his bodyguards now。

On the other end of the phone was George Paul, the de facto controller of Citigroup, who was entrusted by Walker, the de facto controller of the Rockefeller consortium, to call Richard, hoping that the latter would temporarily stop breaking the news and agree to get Richard a decent job after Lehman Brothers went bankrupt to maintain his ostensibly luxurious life. It was also implied that he could be given a considerable amount of money.

"10 million dollars? Listen! Damn, I don't want to repeat it a second time, you know? I used to have billions of dollars in wealth, but it was you who buried all this good thing! Listen, if you're sincere, then immediately, I'm talking damn immediately, right now, I'm going to see $100 million, if not, then shut up!" Richard looked furious when he heard the quote on the phone.

$10 million? Is it a call for Hanako?

Of course, he still has the illusion that if the other party can give him $100 million, then he will immediately shut up. After all, large groups such as Morgan and Citigroup are not so easy to provoke, especially the Morgan consortium and the Rockefeller consortium behind them have temporarily allied to deal with the financial crisis.

But people are greedy, after all, the East and West South consortium promised him $200 million, which can cover all the expenses of the rest of his life and his children. After losing most of his possessions, his personal debt credit line has reached a precarious point, and without the injection of external funds, he is likely to end up in the most miserable end for the rest of his life.

So he needs money, a lot of dollars! If Morgan and Rockefeller can provide him with $100 million, then he will not hesitate to switch to the arms of the consortium, so as to effectively avoid the time to settle the ledger. No one can survive on this planet unharmed after offending the consortium, even if it is an Eastern country, it is not so reliable.

But George Paul neatly rejected his last offer, "What are you kidding?!" Richard, do you think it was still half a year ago? Maybe you were worth a billion dollars back then, but now, look. You're not even worth $10 million, and if I hadn't been speaking for you in the middle, they would have only had to reward you with a bullet. You know, that's not even $5, let alone $10 million. ”

As a small group of people in the once top circle, if Richard had simply compromised out of fear, he would have been eaten in that dangerous environment without even bones left.

"Yes, I'm afraid of death, but I'm more afraid of poverty!" Richard sneered, "I know the power of the consortium, but please never forget the fact that Paul is there." Although the consortium has a lot of money, the connections and connections you can use can only be displayed through capital. You don't dare to kill me openly, even if it's an assassination, you don't dare. ”

"Then you can try. George Paul also sneered, "I advise you, $10 million is our final offer, and if you reject this offer, then we will regard you as rejecting the friendship between Rockefeller and Morgan, and I believe you will not like it." ”

"To hell with the damn friendship, then!" Richard hung up viciously, then pulled the tie from his collar and roared, "You think 10 million dollars will send me? Damn, I'm going to show you if what I have in my hands is worth 100 million." ”

After finishing speaking, he directly opened his computer, in the special mailbox of Apple computer, an email that had been prepared a long time ago, was lightly clicked by the mouse, and then instantly transmitted through the signal, and their final destination was the world's most authoritative and deadly 40 major media carefully selected by Richard. I'm sure they'll be crazy about the inside information that comes out!

In this world, the power of conglomerates is terrifying. But the power of the consortium is also limited.

Because although they control more than 10 trillion US dollars in total assets, these assets are not their private property, and they are only middlemen who control the funds for many wealthy people around the world.

Whether they are as strong as Citi or Morgan, they must adhere to the principle that the consortium will never be in front of the stage, they can only remotely direct everything from a dark corner, and if anyone wants to break this boundary, then they will be met with a terrible backlash, no matter how powerful they are, they will be erased by the strong rules. Every person who exists alone is small and humble, even if they are sitting on a huge wealth of tens of billions of dollars, but just like the generals who commanded thousands of troops in ancient times, their own individual strength will never be as huge as that of gods and Buddhas. An army of millions can't be carried with them every day.

Richard used to be a member of the consortium, and his status was very high, because his own wealth was as high as five or six billion dollars, which was worth one of the top powerful people in the world. Therefore, he clearly knows that the so-called consortium is just an alliance of a large group of like-minded people with common interests, and although Walker enjoys the name of the leader of the consortium, in fact, his personal wealth is not necessarily more than ten times that of Richard.

As long as he cuts off the connection between Walker and the consortium, he can reduce the threat of the consortium to him to a certain extent, and what makes him even more clear is that as long as Citi falls into bankruptcy, then many of those big people who were once high above will fall from the altar, and even their end will be much more miserable than their own, because they still have a way out. They have no way out, and the best choice at that time is probably to jump off the roof of a tall building and become a puddle of mud.

"You forced me!" said Richard viciously after doing all this......

"You brought it on yourself!" After receiving Richard's rejection of the proposal, Walker, the leader of the Rockefeller consortium, threw the red wine in his hand back, and then slammed the wine glass on the ground, and the fragments scattered for a while......

"Hamilton, inject this into his daily medication, there will be no problems with the hospital experience, he will die of a myocardial infarction, and it has nothing to do with you. ”

Hamilton, who is Mr. Richard's personal doctor, is struggling with whether to agree to the man's proposal, but if he refuses, no one will pay the $3.6 million debt he lost in the stock market, and the creditor will go to court, and he will have no way out but to go bankrupt.

"Think about it. Seeing that he was still hesitating, a man with sunglasses directly smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "You only need to hit him gently, and it will take six hours before you have a seizure, and no one will know that you did it." You can get $3.6 million in debt forgiveness with just one touch, and think about your child, how lovely and touching she is, you can't think of her losing her good education in an aristocratic school, right? and then think about your beautiful wife, maybe when you go bankrupt, she will sweep you away in anger. ”

"I... I ...... "Hamilton was so entangled, he wanted to compromise at one time, and he wanted to refuse, but in the end he was still frightened by the terrible ending described by the other party, and he could only nod helplessly in agreement.

The other man didn't say anything else, just put a bottle of what seemed to be pure water in his hand, and then turned and walked out the door.

Where Hamilton couldn't see, the man stopped, took out a phone with a blank face, and called a number that had been stored a long time ago, "It's done, it's a 30-minute drive from here, and with the diagnosis, we can hear a sad story in seven hours at the latest." ”

"Very good! It's just over eight hours before the end of work. This society is like this, some people work under too much pressure, especially when he hears that the patient he is responsible for has died suddenly, the strong pressure may cause him to make some abnormal behaviors, such as exhaustion, confusion and other mental inconcentration, or maybe he will choose to rush home to escape all this, and it is normal to have some accidents during the journey. A gloomy male voice on the phone said without a trace of emotion.

The man was not surprised, and seemed to be used to this, and immediately said, "I know what to do." You'll hear this sad news later. ”

After hanging up, the man walked away quickly. But he didn't even notice that after he left for a short while, a person suddenly came out of the opposite room, and then also entered this extremely expensive private clinic......

"Well, do you still think it's good?"

Li Mubai arrived in New York in the afternoon, and after visiting the so-called New York Stock Exchange, he drove to Richard's villa on Long Island, New York.

Six hours and forty minutes had passed since Hamilton had been bought, but Richard had not been lying down, it was one of his dogs.

Obviously, Li Mubai, who knew everything, arranged in advance, they changed Hamilton's injection drugs, and at the same time invited a veterinarian to come to the door to diagnose Richard's pet dog. In front of Richard, they presented all the evidence, and the latter witnessed a miraculous event that happened with his own eyes, which was both comedic and sad, after all, the pet dog had been with him for several years.

"I said, can't you give me advance notice next time? Jesse doesn't have to die. Richard was sad and a little glad, if it wasn't for the other party, it might be him who is lying here now.

Li Mubai snapped his fingers with a smile, "Okay, it's time for you to plan for yourself." Here's a copy of what we just photographed near that private clinic, so you'd better take a look at it, and after reading it, maybe you can get some media friends to take a look at it. ”

Richard didn't ask and knew what was going on, and as he took the tape, he asked curiously, "How did you do it?" ”

"I'm sorry, I can't answer that question, you can take it as a miracle, yes! Li Mubai smiled mysteriously and patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, go ahead! After doing all this, the remaining $150 million is yours." ”

"That's great, I wish I had a chance to live until that day. Richard shrugged indifferently and turned out of the room.
