"The father of subprime mortgages? What's going on? Gorbachev asked, feeling a little incredulous. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Secretary Gorbachev, I suddenly feel that you are really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger here. I guess it's better to ask your subordinates to explain to you what a subprime mortgage is, after all, he is the inventor of this financial product! Hammer enthusiastically took Seryosha to his side and recommended it to Gorbachev.

"Alright! Seryosha, don't you want to explain how this is going on? Gorbachev asked Seryosha.

"Secretary, the subprime mortgage was an international financial patent I applied for when I was in England, and I don't know how Comrade Hammer learned about it! I only licensed the patent to a few banks, at least not many people knew about it when I left London! Seryosha also explained with a confused face. The British side had left Kalim to fight, and Seryosha hadn't asked for months. I haven't heard any news from me!

"Don't mind Comrade Gorbachev, the subprime mortgage matter is still circulating in the small circles of Wall Street, and ordinary people have not yet had the opportunity to do this. However, many people are interested in this financial patent. That includes some of my friends in business! Comrade Hammer explained to the two.

The three of them talked all the way out, and Hammer's conversation was a rare opportunity for Seryosha to understand the views of America's wealthiest class. The message from Hammer is positive, it seems that the US investment community is very interested in subprime products, and unsurprisingly, no one has broken down the entire asset portfolio to analyze the risks.

Sending off Comrade Hammer, Seryosha returned to the White House in Gorbachev's car. On the way, Gorbachev pondered for a long time before he said to Seryosha: "According to Hamer, you should be rich, but I am a little curious about how you earned your money?" ”

"Secretary Gorbachev, I can vouch for my party spirit, I am innocent! Many leaders are clear about my affairs, and it is said that General Secretary Andropov even asked about this matter at the beginning! Seryosha was suddenly startled in his heart and hurriedly explained to Gorbachev.

"Don't think about it, I trust you, and I know more or less about you. Do you know that you once made a windfall abroad, and the start-up capital of the Workers' New Town was paid by you in advance? Gorbachev said with a pleasant face.

Gorbachev knew that Seryosha was not surprised at all, but the matter involving his property just now still frightened Seryosha! First, the scale of his property is too large, and the origin is not easy to explain. But Seryosha still wanted to hide his huge wealth, so he said to Gorbachev: "Secretary, most of the money in the workers' new city was borrowed from foreign banks, but fortunately, the project went very smoothly and was basically repaid!" To be honest, I can't afford that much money myself! ”

"Seryosha, I appreciate your talent. You have a strong brain, you are bold, and you dare to break through those rules and regulations to open up new paths. To be honest, cadres like you are simply a rarity in our party! Actually, I prefer to give young people some opportunities, and you are the best example! Gorbachev said.

A conversation in the car made Seryosha feel the trust that Gorbachev had never felt before. In fact, the pressure on Gorbachev is very great now, and he only has the road to defeat Gromyko to stay in the Politburo, and there is no other chance. Gorbachev desperately wanted his work to be recognized by the majority of the party's top cadres. But Gorbachev was too young, and his political background was insufficient. Therefore, in recent times, Gorbachev has begun to search for some capable young cadres. Because of Seryosha's position in the Komsomol system, most of the Komsomol cadres supported Gorbachev, but these cadres were too young to take on big responsibilities. Even Seryosha suffered a big loss on the road to promotion because of his age. If Seryosha can now be more than 20 years older, it is absolutely certain that he will become an alternate member of the Central Committee with Seryosha's resume.

"Seryosha, you have a lot of work in hand now, are you willing to hand over some other work at hand to others and concentrate on doing a good job in the work of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation?" Gorbachev asked suddenly.

"Secretary, what do you mean?" Although Seryosha did not express it on his face, he was a little apprehensive in his heart, he didn't know what Gorbachev was thinking again?

"Your workers' new city project, now higher and bigger, has become one of the country's key projects, can't always hang up with the Youth League Committee! The comrades in the construction department have mentioned it to me several times, and their opinions are very strong. Do you think it's inconvenient for you to hand over this project to someone else to be responsible? Gorbachev consulted Seryosha.

"Secretary, our Youth League Committee has invested a lot of money in this, if we let the people from the Ministry of Construction take it away for nothing, what will our Youth League Committee do?" Seryosha said partially.

"Don't worry, you won't be at a loss, and the construction department should not give you a penny. I know that it is not easy for the comrades of the Youth League Committee, but it is not justified for the Youth League Committee to take care of large-scale municipal projects in Moscow, and it is only a matter of time before the Ministry of Construction takes care of it! A workers' new city should be enough to decide on a Politburo member, you know what we lack now? Gorbachev said with a hint of Seryosha in his words.

Seryosha quickly understood what Gorbachev meant, that is, he wanted to use the workers' new city as a bait to get the Central Committee members who wanted to go further to the side of Secretary Gorbachev. As Gorbachev said, a workers' new city should be enough to decide on a Politburo member. Seryosha can't rise now, and it's a waste to hold it in his hands, so it's better to hook up with a member of the Central Committee and take refuge in his own camp. However, the workers' new city was created by Seryosha, and if this matter makes Seryosha feel guilty, it will outweigh the losses. In fact, Seryosha had already changed his mind when he heard the sentence that the Ministry of Construction should give no less money, and this was a good opportunity to recoup the funds, just so that he could get the money back and invest it in the Japanese project or barter trade to earn more profits. Thinking of this, Seryosha made a decision in his heart.

"Secretary, I am willing to give up the new city of workers, but the National Housing Bank is the parent company of the Mediterranean Trading Company, can I keep it?" Seryosha requested.

"Of course, foreign trade is our most important job at the moment!" Gorbachev said gratefully.
