In the middle of the night, father and son discussed their future plans with the mellow Blue Mountain coffee: "What do you think about the next year?" Do you really want to move most of the money to the United States? I remember that in the telegram you said that you were going to start a civil aviation company also. ”

"Civil aviation has to be done, stocks have to be bought, but there is no conflict, after the New Year, the money of civil aviation will be settled." With a confident smile on his face, Contini still has more than $5 million in short positions on his hands.

The elder Ziano knew the secret behind the smile: after the New Year, France and Belgium would definitely be eager to send troops, and as soon as the soldiers of the two countries appeared in the Ruhr area, the Deutsche Mark would immediately fall into the abyss. Resist? That's impossible! Since there is no military resistance, the collapse of the mark is inevitable, and speculative profits will roll in.

At present, the total number of dollars exported from Germany is 10.23 million, the old Chiano took 800,000 principal, and spent more than 1 million before and after the establishment of a joint motorcycle, and about 5 million funds have been transferred to the United States. ”

The old Ziano was very satisfied with the fact that Du Hei was not a simple bureaucrat or a general, he was an academic authority on the theory of the Air Force, and he would have many benefits in the future. For Contini, it is not a big deal to get an assistant to the minister, as long as he comes forward to communicate, he can also get an assistant in any other department. But the Ministry of Aviation is a very special department, and it is on the eve of the formation of an independent air force, once it can become a veteran of the air force, it will be much faster to rise to the top in the future, and if it is hung up with the title of a disciple of academic authority, it will be more reliable, and now I don't know why Du Hei will accept his son as a disciple, if it is just to sell his own face, then the situation will be much more tortuous.

So old Ciano knocked on the side and asked, "How did you convince him?" His temper is not easy to get along with, and he doesn't even give the leader a lot of face. ”

"That's because you didn't find a good way to convince him to start with theory." Contini gave a general account of his debate with Duhei, and the elder Ciano was dumbfounded, he really didn't see that his son knew aviation.

"Didn't brag, did you?"

"What's there to brag about, the teacher will submit an inspection report to the cabinet in two days, it's all your son's knife, and he hasn't changed a word." Contini said with a smile, "The teacher's book should also be greatly revised, and all the content I considered and conceived should be added, and he suggested that I go to the military academy for 1-2 years after graduating from university, even if I can't learn anything, it's good to be familiar." ”

As soon as he said this, the old Ciano believed it, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "You have to be mentally prepared, if an independent air force is formed, your teacher's position may not last long." ”

"I know, the teacher himself said so." Contini grinned, "Actually, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the leader put the teacher in this position in order to fight with the army, the main purpose is to build the independent air force and take it into his own hands, he just wants to use the teacher's prestige and respect for the independent air force to achieve political goals, he doesn't understand the use of air military power at all, the teacher has complained many times." He is likely to retire after the formation of the Independent Air Force to focus on academics, and before that time he will use every advantage to get civil aviation up and running. ”

Old Ziano nodded, Du Hei can understand this, which shows that his mind is still clear, and it is no wonder that he is going all out to promote the Ministry of Transportation to lead the civil aviation issue - he will not be the Minister of Aviation in the future, and it is better to help students or help his successor There is no need to choose at all.

So he refocused the topic on the composition of civil aviation shares: "That's a good question! How much do you decide for yourself? How many social shares are allowed? I know you have a lot of ideas on United Motorcycle, I don't know how to think about it here in civil aviation? ”

After thinking about it, Contini said: "I expect that the overall income from this speculation will be 15 million to 16 million US dollars, in addition to the investment direction that has been allocated so far, I plan to use 2 million US dollars to start United Airlines, and the remaining hundreds of thousands of dollars will be used for newspaper and other living expenses, and the teacher has promised to grant me the title of assistant to the Minister of Aviation, but I will not be paid!" This is very beneficial for my future social interaction and business development, and many Italians eat this set! ”

"If you don't pay your salary, you can also hang the title of assistant to the Minister of Transport!" Old Ciano laughed, "Don't look at the accident world, you have to be responsible for doing big things, you are my son, what's wrong with not taking money to be an assistant?" Anyway, I won't promote you. ”

"To be honest, $2 million is more than enough to start United Airlines for the current situation, but I don't want to give the impression that we're not willing to accept other people's shares for the sake of eating alone, which is a blow to my father's reputation, and if someone wants to think about it again and the relationship between the Ministry of Aviation and the teacher, I'm afraid I'd think more. In fact, in 5 years, United Airlines should not want to make a profit at all, and introduce others into investment, I think it is harming others. ”

Contini concluded: "Could you please let out the news that I intend to set up an airline with a share capital of 30 million lire (about 1.5 million US dollars) and expand it to 100 million lira in three years, during which no dividends will be paid until all accumulated losses have been wiped out and then dividends, and the maximum shareholding ratio of others cannot exceed 35%." ”

This idea is quite detrimental: how many people can stand this without paying dividends just by increasing investment? And you can't get a controlling stake, it's just spending money for people to play. This brings to Contini's true thoughts: he doesn't like other people meddling, but he puts on a look of agreement – if you don't care about burning money, come on.

"How many years will it take to become profitable?"

"It's nice to be able to barely break it off in 10 years."

Old Ciano was taken aback: "Could it be that the civil aviation of Britain and France is also operating so dismally?" ”

"I don't think the same way as them, civil aviation is just a step on the surface, what I really want to do is to integrate the Italian aviation industry, and at the same time make civil aviation a linkage trump card in the hands of the youth league, the aviation club and the radio station that I control. The reason why the name is called United is not because the name sounds popular, but because in my imagination it is the joint embodiment of a variety of business formats, and it is a whole game of chess. Contini handed over the business plan he had written on the road.

The elder Chiano quickly flipped through the pages, and although there were many ideas that he could not fully grasp, it did not hinder his understanding of this grand blueprint: In the future group system, the radio stations that the Italian people heard and saw were the newspapers of the United Group, the flights they took were those of the United Group, the planes used by the United Airlines were produced by themselves, and even the bills and settlement accounts used by the United Group were carried out through the banks of the United Group.

The United Group has its own motorcycle, automobile and aviation industries, and if consumer credit is needed, it can be directly achieved through the United Bank, and the media controlled by the United Group will focus on advertising other products and services produced by the Group...... In this system, the union is a brand, as soon as you see this brand, you will think of the strength behind it, even if the union wants to enter a new industrial field, this intangible assets accumulated in other fields will instantly open the valve of public impression.

For example, in the future, if it is necessary to produce televisions, for the Italian people, it will definitely be the advantages of co-branded, Fiat-branded TVs over other brands - this is the preemptive strike of brands and formats. Of course, there is another sentence that Contini will not write in the report, that his ultimate ambition can only be realized by rapidly strengthening himself and forming a super-consortium, which is then combined with the power of state power, military power and industrial and military industry.

"You have a lot of things you want to do, can you afford it? If the capital chain is broken, before your so-called aggregation effect can be brought into play, these industries will all collapse! ”

"Things can be done step by step, after the year I will be 20 years old, at least 50 years to struggle, as for the ...... of funds," Contini smiled confidently, "The American capital market will become a steady stream of cash machines, speculation can come to money, capital operation can also come to money, and when the cause reaches a certain level, it is not easy for me to collapse - if someone wants to collapse the Fiat Group and the Agnelli family now, even if the people in power are not interested in them, they will not let this idea go." ”

This is the routine that is too big to fail, old Chiano understands it very well, and after thinking about it for a while, he said: "Okay, you can do it without worry, even if you lose it all, it's not a big deal, it's a big deal to go back from where you come from." However, you can come forward in the name of the family, but the specific industry should be separated from the existing industry. ”

"Of course, it's your wealth."

"Calais, I didn't mean that." Old Ziano said earnestly, "I want to keep the last bit of capital, in case you lose all of it outside, as long as you leave the family business, you will still have the capital to make a comeback!" I'm always going to die, and you're the only child, who won't I give you to? ”

"Father, I know, thank you." Contini quickly explained, "I almost have this idea, and I would like to ask you for a little support......"
