Chapter 410: Interests
At five or six o'clock, John knocked on Zuo Jiang's door in advance. Jenny opened the door, and in the big living room, Zuo Jiang smiled and shook hands with John and said, "Mr. John is really on time!" ”
John also smiled and said half-truthfully: "I have a request for you, a rich man, how can I not come on time, I am afraid of angering you, and my campaign funds will be wasted!" Hehe! ”
Zuo Jiang and John sat down separately, and after Jenny brought them the brewed coffee, they sat down next to Zuo Jiang.
John saw this situation and understood that Jenny was also going to participate in today's meeting, although it was a very private conversation, and he had no scruples in his heart, which undoubtedly showed Jenny's status in Harry Potter Financial Investment.
John is a very decisive person, since he has decided to ask Zuo Jiang for financial help, he opened his mouth to sell Soros, he looked at Zuo Jiang and said, "Mr. Harry Potter, before today's meeting, I would like to remind you of a question. You must be careful about the cooperation between your company and the Quantum Fund! ”
"Oh!" Zuo Jiang heard that John's first sentence was not about funds, but directly mentioned the quantum fund, and immediately felt that there must be something hidden here, he looked at John and asked quietly: "Our cooperation with the quantum fund is a mutually beneficial thing, the contract is clearly written, and it can be executed according to the contract, I don't understand what Mr. John's reminder means?" ”
Decide to do things happily, this is John's character, he said very directly: "** A few days ago, Bill, the CEO of the Quantum Fund, called me, I happened to visit Mr. Giver in Washington, D.C., and after I came back, the people in the office told me about it, and gave me a Japanese phone number, and after I contacted Bill, he asked me to investigate the situation of Harry Potter Financial Investment Company and Mr. Harry Potter, and I didn't know why they investigated, so I gave them your situation, The day before yesterday, the Quantum Fund invited me to a celebration reception, and I only then learned about your cooperation! ”
John's words clearly reminded Zuo Jiang that the Quantum Fund was making small moves behind his back, but Zuo Jiang's attention at this time was on the Ji Wei he said to visit, Ji Wei? The name of the secretary of state of the United States after 92 is this, is it Mr. Will that John is talking about?
Seeing that Zuo Jiang didn't say anything, John thought that he was doubting the authenticity of his words, so he continued: "Mr. Harry Potter, what I said is true, the Quantum Fund has an inextricable relationship with the American political circles, and their information channels are very extensive, since they have found to investigate you and your company, then, they will definitely investigate you through other channels, Soros is not only a giant in the financial world, but also has a deep political background, so you have to guard against it!" ”
John wanted to knock on Zuo Jiang's door with this bombshell, but by mistake, the Mr. Giwell he inadvertently mentioned attracted Zuo Jiang's attention, and when it came to this, Zuo Jiang couldn't ask him directly about Mr. Giwell, so he could only follow his words and ask: "This is indeed a very important piece of information, what did Mr. John provide to Bill about me?" ”
The words have been spoken, John did not hide it, he told the process of investigating Zuo Jiang and Harry Potter Financial Investment Company and what he learned, and then looked at Zuo Jiang and waited for his ruling, he did this is a strategy that he thought of in advance, he decided to make a desperate bet before he came, and decided to impress Zuo Jiang with honesty, if it is done, he may ascend to the sky in one step, if it is not successful, he has nothing to lose, since he has decided to break with Soros, he does not care about them.
When Soros found Jenny and James in Tokyo. Zuo Jiang understood that Soros had come to this conclusion through a large number of investigations. One can imagine how powerful his news channels are. It's one thing to be in a state of speculation. It's one thing to put it out clearly. It makes a difference. There is a big gap between speculation and reality. At the beginning of the cooperation, Zuo Jiang did not hide any eyes. I just want to push the Soros Earth Quantum Fund as a shield. After listening to John's words, he changed his mind again. The plan is in my hands. It is also a prediction of changes in the market. It's also normal for me to be slightly biased. At that time, it is the quantum fund that will suffer! However, Zuo Jiang was still very glad that John did not investigate the fact that his father was a high-ranking official of the Republic.
Zuo Jiang looked at John and said, "Mr. John." Thank you for being honest. Thank you for informing me of the news. This has helped us a lot as a company. I love being honest with Mr. John! Speaking of this, Zuo Jiang paused. Seeing John's undisguised look of joy on his face. It seemed to be very casual and said, "Oh." That's right. You said you were going to visit Mr. Giver in Washington. Is it Mr. Giver, who is now in the Ministry of Defense? ”
John nodded and said, "Yes." It is none other than the current Minister of Defense, Mr. Giwell. How. Mr. Harry Potter and Mr. Givwell met? ”
Zuo Jiang waved his hand and said, "No." We don't know. I've only heard of Mr. Jill. I heard that he has a high prestige within the Democratic Party! ”
John said, "It is the earth." Mr. Giver is very important in the Democratic Party. It is the next president
One of the most important members of the team. Now the Democrats have already begun to work on the ground )+ local affairs. I went to Washington to ask for his help. ”
"Oh!" Zuo Jiang looked at John and said in amazement: "So Mr. John and Mr. Giver are very familiar?" ”
John said: "I am also a member of the Democratic Party, and within the Democratic Party I am a member of the legal lawyers' group, and I have had the opportunity to contact high-level people in the party. ”
"Oh!" Zuo Jiang nodded and looked at John but didn't speak, with an inquiring expression.
John, of course, understood what Zuo Jiang meant, saying: "Although I am a well-known barrister in New York, I have failed to run for state legislature twice in a row because of financial problems. Although I had gained some fame for dealing with this legal matter for the party, Mr. Giver had made a promise to me, though he did not accede to my request this time, because of my poor political standing in New York State. ”
"What promise?" Zuo Jiang couldn't help but ask.
"Mr. Giver said that if I could run for the New York State legislature this time and have a place in New York State politics, it would prove my ability, and with my status as a barrister, he proposed that I be in the next presidential campaign and be in charge of the Democratic presidential campaign in New York State," John said.
This means that if the candidate put forward by the Democratic Party can successfully run for president, my status in the Democratic Party will be greatly improved, and it is very likely that I will run for the Senate or enter the US government in the future! ”
John's pie is very round and attractive, undoubtedly indicating that he has great potential and is worthy of Zuo Jiang's investment in him. And the trajectory of history is indeed like this, but he himself could not have thought of it at all, in terms of John's current political status and influence, it is undoubtedly difficult to do what he said, and the possibility of achieving it is also very small, he himself finished talking and was a little unbelievable, what he didn't expect was that Zuo Jiang just believed it!
Zuo Jiang said: "I can contribute money to help you campaign, but what I want to know is, what benefits can I get? ”
John was overjoyed when he heard this, and said very excitedly: "I don't dare to give you any guarantee now, although I am very confident that I will succeed in the election, but there is also the possibility of failure, if I fail, I can only be my assistant auditor general, and I will be of limited help to your company, but if I succeed in the election, no matter where I go in the future, we are firm allies, and I will do my best to fight for the interests of your company within my ability!" ”
Zuo Jiangyi waved his hand and said, "Okay, deal!" How much money do you need for this campaign? ”
John didn't expect Zuo Jiang to be so refreshing, and suddenly his heart was excited, rubbing his hands and thinking about how much money is appropriate, the first two elections, he got a pitiful amount of money in the quantum fund, and he filled in all his net worth or returned disappointed, now he is no different from the poor bastard, he is afraid that Zuo Jiang will not agree, and if he wants it, it is not enough to be successfully elected, and his heart is very conflicted.
After hesitating for a long time, John decided to tell the truth, since Zuo Jiang promised so happily just now, then he should not hesitate too much on the issue of money, he said: "Mr. Harry Potter, if things go well, $300 is about the same, less than $300, I'm not sure!" After speaking, he looked at Zuo Jiang expectantly.
Zuo Jiang said without hesitation: John, I wish you success in your election first! With that, he stood up and leaned over to shake his hand.
John was very excited and stood up and stepped forward, held Zuo Jiang's hand tightly with both hands and said, "Mr. Harry Potter, thank you so much, I don't know what to say now, in short, I will stand firmly on your side in the future!" ”
Zuo Jiang shook John's hand and invited him to sit down, and then said: "Mr. John, I am not often in New York, Miss Jenny is responsible for funding your campaign, you can contact Miss Jenny directly if there is anything in the future, if there is a special situation where the funds are not enough, I will now authorize Miss Jenny to give you additional funds, in short, Miss Jenny will be the sole responsible person for this matter in the future!" ”
When John heard that there was such a good thing, the gratitude in his heart was indescribable, he used to beg his grandfather to tell his grandmother to raise campaign funds everywhere and couldn't raise it, but this time people gave a large number of them, and they took the initiative to add, it seems that people are different, this time he is looking for the right Lord!
