Andy Morgan smiled very handsomely, with a bit of a merry middle-aged man's taste, and said, "Lu, let me introduce you." This is our brightest jewel in New York, Ms. Jessica Fulllinming. Lu, do you know each other? β
Lu Jing smiled slightly bitterly and said self-deprecatingly: "Mr. Morgan, I have to say the phrase 'just met' again." β
This sentence made several people laugh. Humor is a part of American life.
Jessica Fulin smiled beautifully, and the white-breasts trembled slightly under the deep V evening dress, "I just met Lu in the smoking area. As he spoke, he winked at Lu Jing lively, and naturally he would not say anything about borrowing cigarettes in public.
Jessica Fulling greeted everyone present one by one, and then said, "Andy, my American Cultural Studies Association is in dire need of funds. I am planning to sell my 16.2% stake in Langham Place Fifth Avenue, are you interested in taking over? β
Andy Morgan persuaded, "Jessica, Mr. Fulin will be sad to hear the news. If you need money urgently, you can borrow money from the bank. I can vouch for you. β
Several people present listened quietly, and it was clear that Andy Morgan and Jessica Fulming's relationship was not ordinary.
Jessica Fulimin shook her head stubbornly, "No, Andy. β
The American Cultural Research Association is her career. She didn't want to trouble Andy, who took good care of her, in this matter.
Jessica Fulin looked at Renard Rockefeller, Daniel Warren, Marvin Krone, and Shuichi Takeshita in turn, trying to see who was interested in taking over.
Everyone smiled silently. Andy Morgan is not inclined to Jessica Fulming's sale of shares, how could they disagree with Andy Morgan for a hundred million dollars or two?
Jessica Fullin's eyes skipped over Lu Jing. She had just met Lu Jing.
Lu Jing coughed lightly. "Ms. Fu Linming, I have a Jianyì."
Jessica Fulin looked at Lu Jing with clear eyes. Curious: "Oh? Lu, what are your ideas? β
"If you can't find a buyer. You can put your shares up for auction on eBay. The possibilities are endless. You may be able to fetch a high price. β
Jessica Fulin was a little moved, and pondered slightly. She has an eBay account and usually shops on it. Mentally assessing the situation.
Shuichi Takeshita glanced at Lu Jing appreciatively. If Lu Jingti yì is up to him to take over the shares in Jessica Fulming's hands, it will be a death. It doesn't hurt to offer a novel approach.
Chen Xujiang and Xu Xue's eyes lit up slightly, this is a very novel idea, which is enough to attract Andy Morgan's attention.
Sure enough, Andy Morgan's eyes looked at Lu Jing with a hint of something else, smiled, and said, "Jessica." With an online auction, a $150 million deal, you'll be a star in the U.S. in an instant. β
Jessica Fulin thought about it and gave up helplessly, "Oh, forget it then." I don't want to be in the public spotlight. β
Lu Jing refused to give up this hard-won opportunity, and said, "Ms. Fu Linming, if you want to protect your privacy, you can consider holding an equity auction. Maximize your financial dilemma. β
Jessica Fulin smiled at Lu Jing, who actively advised her. "It's too long to prepare for an auction, and my father will stop me. Shy Lu, is there anything else you can do? β
These words made several people on the side smile slightly. Will Shyness and Lu Jing be able to touch the table?
Xu Xue wanted to ridicule Jessica Fullin when she heard it. Just by looking at this title, you can know that this girl must have taken the initiative to talk to Lu Jing in the smoking area just now.
Lu Jing smiled lightly and said, "The auction is just a formality. Another way can achieve the goal. Like what. We can invite you to take a gamble and decide the ownership of your equity in Langham Place Fifth Avenue. β
According to the information gathered, Andy Morgan enjoys playing Texas Hold'em. Whereas, Texas Hold'em is a gambling game commonly used in casinos around the world. Lu Jing mentioned yì. In fact, it does what it likes.
Chen Xujiang and Xu Xue praised in their hearts. Lu Jing's "nonsense" finally got involved with Andy Morgan.
However, Lu Jing's voice just fell. The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became cold.
Jessica Fulin looked at Lu Jing with a smile and was noncommittal about his mention. Shuichi Takeshita was stunned. Daniel Warren had an eerie smile on his face. I laughed proudly.
Andy Morgan's eyes changed when he looked at Lu Jing, with a hint of disgust.
Daniel Warren said on the side: "Mr. Lu, your gambling is too heavy. I am quite skeptical that HBC will take the risk of challenging the global economic order when it has enough strength.
From the end of December to the beginning of January, the price fluctuations of international crude oil futures were quite abnormal. It is said to be related to Hehua. Mr. Lu, Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor was a big gamble. However, they achieved only a temporary victory, and were eventually defeated by the US Navy. β
Chen Xujiang and Xu Xue's faces changed in shock. Daniel Warren made up too hard for this knife. He even compared Hehua's operation in the international crude oil futures market to a sneak attack on Pearl Harbor. God knows what Andy Morgan will think? And...
Lu Jing's face changed slightly, and a heavy sense of frustration welled up in his heart.
They were deceived.
The information about Andy Morgan obtained from eBay VP Ford Cooper is fake. Made. It is clear from Andy Morgan's reaction that he is "averse" to gambling rather than liking it. I thought it was to do what he liked, but I didn't expect to touch its reverse scales.
All eyes were on Andy Morgan. The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.
Renard Rockefeller looked at Jessica Furingaki, Shuichi Takeshita and others, who chose to stand by and watch. smiled and said, "Andy, even if you hate gambling, why don't we listen to Mr. Lu's opinion first." His approach is innovative. β
The Morgans had a Puritan tradition. It is a family tradition to be Protestant and not to like gambling. He doesn't have a bad sense of gambling.
Moreover. He had just learned from a friend that Hehua had given up on the New Jersey oil field development program. This means that there is no conflict of interest between Harmony and Rockefeller. He didn't mind giving the young man from the East a chance to speak at this time.
Andy Morgan said, "Okay, let's listen." There was some sarcasm in the tone.
Marvin Crown is a round-faced, middle-aged man in his thirties. Cutting his short head, he looked at Lu Jing, thinking about what kind of answer he would say to quench Mr. Andy Morgan's anger.
Lu Jing's frustration was only for a short time, and in fact, even if Renard Rockefeller didn't speak, he would defend himself. The intensely oppressive atmosphere stimulated his fighting spirit. Andy Morgan's momentum can't crush him.
Lu Jingdao: "Everyone, if I can make 200% of the profit, I won't want to make 20% of the profit." Gambling, such as stud, is also a fusion of probability theory. A high-IQ game with permutations and combinations. So before playing Stud, I will definitely learn probability theory, permutations and combinations. Then let's weigh whether it will be like the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor that will put down all the belongings. β
Lu Jingyi's pointful explanation eased the atmosphere a little. A "gambler" who thinks about the consequences and weighs the gains and losses is not so annoying. There are very few projects that are 100% successful in business operations.
There are risks and opportunities.
Daniel Warren saw that the situation was slightly in favor of Lu Jing, and sneered: "Mr. Lu, not everyone here is interested in mathematics. So can't we participate in the auction plan you just mentioned? Are you entertaining us? β
Lu Jing scolded Daniel Warren in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "Big gambling hurts the body, small gambling is pleasant." Langham Place estimates the hotel at around US$900 million. Ms. Fulin has an equity interest worth about $150 million. Mr. Warren, are you sure you need to learn math for a $150 million gamble? β
The last sentence is quite atmospheric.
$150 million is just for fun. Do you need to bother to learn math for a small bet?
The tone rises a bit high. Daniel Warren pondered how to refute it. He certainly wouldn't admit to relearning math for $150 million. In this way, the momentum is inevitably inferior, and the persuasiveness is greatly reduced.
Andy Morgan's face was slightly pale. glanced at Lu Jing, and his senses were slightly better. After all, the other party was just an unintentional offense, and it is rare to be able to justify himself now.
Then. Jessica Fulin smiled and stroked her jet-black hair and asked, "Lu, how are you going to come..." Uh..., what about the small bet? β
Lu Jing smiled calmly: "Divide this $150 million as a game chip at an equal price." Who wins all the chips in the end. Whoever cashes this money will be used to solve Ms. Fu Linming's urgent needs. I don't think anyone would deliberately lose their chips without a gentlemanly demeanor and not want to help Ms. Fubayashi, right? β
This sentence completely eased the atmosphere. Everyone smiled slightly.
Lu Jing continued: "Of course, what kind of way we take to gamble and which guests we invite to participate in this game depends on what Mr. Morgan and Ms. Fu Lin Ming mean. β
Jessica Fulling looked at Andy Morgan with her eyes and pleaded, "Andy, I want to raise my own research funds. Lu's plan is very good. β
In the face of Jessica Fulming's plea, Andy Morgan was a little helpless, had to agree, thought about it, and said, "If you have time tomorrow night, we will play a few games of Texas Hold'em here tomorrow night." β
If he wants not to be noticed by Jessica's father, Lao Fulinming, he can't invite guests with great fanfare. The friends in front of them all happened to hear Jessica's plan. He simply invited only a few in front of him.
Anyway, he has already decided to buy Jessica's shares.
Renard Rockefeller and others laughed and said there was time.
Daniel Warren screamed in his heart that it was a pity. It's not that he hasn't thought of how to refute Lu Jing's words now, but Lu Jing's words have been recognized by everyone. He was chattering about the landing scene, which would only arouse the disgust of others.
Andy Morgan nodded with a smile at Lu Jing, who was standing aside with a smile, and invited, "Lu, you can also come tomorrow night to participate." β
"Okay. Mr. Morgan. Lu Jing breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and a faint joy surged from the bottom of his heart.
The crisis was lifted, and he managed to make a positive impression on Andy Morgan. Getting an invitation to participate in the game is proof of this.
