Chapter 550: The Morgan Family
Following Song Xiren back to the living room, Yang Han hurriedly greeted him and asked with concern! What do you think? Are you sure? ”
"Go back and talk about it." Wang Xu smiled faintly, turned around and said to Song Xiren: "Mr. Song, we won't stay longer, let's leave first, and I'll have someone send over the list of things you need later." ”
"Well, I've got people start preparing lunch." Song Xiren hurriedly said.
"I don't need to eat, I still have a lot of things to prepare, Mr. Song's situation can't be delayed, the sooner you start, the better." Wang Xu smiled, and led Yang Han and Yang Sihong to leave.
After getting into the car, Yang Yi drove away from the Song family's manor, Yang Han asked again: "Listening to the conversation you just had with Song Xiren, are you sure to heal Grandpa Song?" ”
"Sort of." Wang Xu nodded and explained: "Song Boming's condition is not a disease, but he is old and his body has reached the limit, so the nutrients absorbed cannot support the normal consumption of the body. ”
"What do you mean, brother-in-law, why am I confused when I hear it." Yang Sihong asked puzzled, he and Yang Sichen were also curious about Song Boming's situation, I heard that many well-known doctors had shown Song Boming, but unfortunately they couldn't do anything.
"How can I say it, even if Song Boming's limit is reached, his physical condition can ensure that he will live to this time, and if he dies, it can be regarded as the end of his life." Wang Xu explained with a wry smile.
"The limit has arrived, that is to say, life has reached its limit." Yang Sihong thought for a while and asked puzzledly: "Brother-in-law, you still have a way to do this, isn't this a change of life against the sky?" ”
"Hehe, do you still know how to change your life against the sky?" Wang Xu was happy, glanced at Yang Sihong with a smile, Yang Sihong was very embarrassed, and said with a strange smile: "I read it all in novels, isn't Zhuge Liang in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms just changing his life against the sky?" ”
"You know a lot?" Wang Xu smiled and said: "It's not a change of life, although people's lifespan has a limit in the end, but there are still many ways to prolong life in traditional Chinese medicine, and there are many guarantees that it is still possible to extend life for two or three years." ”
"Oh!" Yang Sihong didn't seem to understand it, nodded and pondered it himself, but Yang Han didn't know some medicine, looked at Wang Xu and asked in a low voice, "It's not that simple?" ”
"It's okay, it's not that complicated." Wang Xu smiled, and didn't say much, Song Boming's situation is not complicated, but it is not simple, if it were someone else, he might not be so sure, but the Song family is rich, and many things can be obtained, and the problem is not very big.
Soon after returning to the Yang family with Yang Han, a servant of the Yang family brought an invitation to Wang Xu, which was sent by Jameson, inviting Wang Xu to a banquet three days later at Kling Castle in New York.
"Kling Castle?" Looking at the address on the invitation, Yang Han frowned and said: "This Kling Castle is on the outskirts of New York, it is the place of the Morgan family, and this banquet is also held by the Morgan family, and my grandfather seems to have received the invitation." ”
"The Morgans!" Listening to the name that popped out of Yang Han's mouth, Wang Xu also frowned subconsciously, and secretly guessed in his heart: "Could it be that what Jameson asked for has something to do with the Morgan family?" ”
This Morgan family, Wang Xu is naturally one of the largest conglomerates in the United States, and several major conglomerates such as the Rockefeller consortium, the First Citibank consortium, and the Boston consortium control the entire economic trend of the United States.
The Rockefeller consortium started with a monopoly on oil, and then invested in the financial industry and manufacturing, and since then it has continued to grow and develop, from 6.6 billion US dollars in total assets in 1935 to 1974, and in 40 years, the total assets have reached more than 300 billion US dollars, which has increased 50 times.
The Morgan family is the ruling consortium that monopolizes the U.S. economy, initially engaged in investment and credit, and then expanded all the way to various sectors of the financial economy, including railroads, steel and other industries.
In World War I, the Morgan family took the opportunity to make a fortune and further expanded the group, gradually penetrating the economy into many industries in the United States.
Many economists have commented on the United States, saying that before World War I, the United States was not a great power, and at the beginning it was only a colony of Britain, but it was precisely because of the two world wars that the United States made a fortune and gradually became a world power.
This statement is actually not groundless, throughout the two world wars, although the United States participated, but the war basically did not affect the United States itself, basically broke out in other countries.
However, in the two world wars, both France and Britain suffered great losses, and Germany, as a defeated country, was once economically not as good as before, but the United States developed as a result
As a capitalist country, large conglomerates are naturally the lifeblood of the country, and some people have commented that the president of the United States is nothing more than the spokesman of the major conglomerates, and this is absolutely true, even the many wars launched by the United States after the two world wars have also involved the interests of the major conglomerates behind the United States.
After World War I, the Morgan family became the largest conglomerate in the United States, accounting for 50 percent of all the major conglomerates in the United States.
It is precisely because of this that the Morgan family became the target of other consortia in the United States at that time, and other consortia united to suppress the Morgan family, which made the Morgan family gradually sluggish, and was once surpassed by the Rockefeller family.
In order to recover the decline, the Morgan family expanded again with huge financial resources, especially in industry, and constantly renewed, so that the Morgan family once again surpassed the Rockefeller family and became the head of the major American conglomerates.
Regardless of the history of the rise of the Morgan family, the Morgan family is definitely the top three consortia among the major American conglomerates, because in recent years, people have been unable to assess the specific total assets of the Morgan family or the Rockefeller family.
The Song family and the Yang family, as Chinese, still have a lot of say in the United States, in fact, if you really want to count, they will definitely not be in the top ten among all the talent groups in the United States, which shows how powerful the top three consortia in the United States are such as the Morgan family.
At present, many people feel that China, as a socialist country, is no different from the system of capitalist countries such as the United States, but such people do not understand the truth.
As a capitalist country, the United States represents the interests of a large business, not the people, and the conditions of the people in capitalist countries such as the United States are constantly improving, but the right to speak is absolutely very low, and the president of the United States will never dare to resist the meaning of the major American businessmen.
Uh, it's a bit far, it's easy to talk about this kind of problem, and I didn't control it for a while.
To get back to the point, it is precisely because Wang Xu understands the Morgan family, so he looks at the invitation in his hand and feels a little numb, he has long guessed that the things Jameson is looking for him are not simple, but he didn't expect that the things Jameson found for him are related to the Morgan family.
However, Yang Han on the side saw Wang Xu's thoughts, and said with a smile: "You may not know that behind the Global Group is the Morgan family. ”
"Rub!" Listening to Yang Han's words, Wang Xu couldn't help but burst into a foul language, the Global Group can almost compete with the Yang family and the Song family, and it is still the property of the Morgan family.
"Why, some regret letting Jameson come forward in the first place?" Yang Han looked at Wang Xu with a smile and said, "If Jameson didn't have the support of the Morgan family, how could he dare to directly oppose the Song family, ConocoPhillips and other companies in Pingzhou at that time?" ”
"No wonder." Wang Xu smiled bitterly and nodded: "It seems that the things Jameson found for me are not simple, have you heard that someone in the Morgan family is sick?" ”
"Yes, there is one." Yang Han thought for a moment and said, "You mean Jameson came to you for the purpose of asking you to treat a certain member of the Morgan family?" ”
"I don't know anything but to see a doctor." Wang Xu smiled and said: "This Jameson looks up to me, Morgan family, if someone is really sick, the world's famous doctors are not rushing, he knows that I can be optimistic?" ”
"I think Jameson is a dead horse as a live horse doctor, looking for you is just a try, if he can't be cured, there is no loss to him, if he is really cured, it will not be a little good for him." Yang Han said with a smile.
"You're gloating." Wang Xu rolled his eyelids and looked at Yang Han and said, "That's the Morgan family, your husband and I didn't humiliate ourselves in the past." ”
What Wang Xu said was what he really thought in his heart, he was not afraid of treating someone in the Morgan family, or he couldn't see the kind of eyes that were looked down upon, and he estimated that when the time came, he would inevitably be sneered at.
"Don't worry, grandpa will go when the time comes, you are now the son-in-law of our Yang family, even if it is the Morgan family, you have to give grandpa a little face." Yang Han chuckled.
"Ha, you look like you're happy." Wang Xu smiled and preached, "You haven't told me that any one of the Morgan family is sick?" ”
"The current patriarch of the Morgan family, the mother of the old Morgan, that is, the old lady of the Morgan family, heard that she has been sick for several years."
"Morgan's mother?" Wang Xu muttered and asked, "How old is his mother?" ”
"Not very old, in his sixties." Yang Han said with a smile.
"Sixty-something?" Wang Xu looked at Yang Han and asked puzzledly: "As far as I know, the old Morgan is in his sixties, and his mother is in her sixties?" ”
"Stepmother!" Yang Han chuckled and said in a low voice: "Although she is a stepmother, this stepmother of his, is very remarkable, Morgan can control the family, and this old lady has made great contributions." ”
