Subtitle of this chapter: Big News is for the Big Guys!

Yuan Yanqian was a little flattered when he was interviewed for the first time, but when he calmed down and thought about it, it didn't taste right. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Who am I? People who can make big news in minutes, people who can become big names casually, are destined to be the darlings of the media in this life. Since Lao Tzu is a "darling", of course the media should spoil him, so why should he bother with the media.

Don't look at the reporters of the four major newspapers, the questions asked by these reporters are not much different from those of the four tabloids, and the attitude of these reporters seems a little arrogant.

Yuan Yanqian was very unhappy when he saw it, so his attitude was much colder than the first time, so he sent these reporters away at will.

"Bell, bell, bell."

It was already six o'clock Eastern time, and the amount of bets was close to half a million US dollars, and at the same time, today's evening newspapers were also sent to Yuan Yanqian one after another.

Of course, he needs to know how bright he can be when he first appears in the media......

Our Master Yuan first flipped through several major newspapers before finding news related to him from the corners.

He couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart, this was too faceless. What "New York Times", "Washington Post", "Wall Street Journal" and "World News", Lao Tzu will give you a big closed-door soup one day!

Then Yuan Yanqian looked at the tabloids. Not to mention, those tabloids are very face-saving for him, although they are not on the front page, but the news related to themselves actually appears on their third page, or even the second page.

The Sun headline:

The doctor from China strenuously denies that he has mental problems, but that doesn't explain his crazy behavior! 》

New York Tribune headline:

"A mysterious young Chinese rich man studying at NYU signed a ridiculous bet of hundreds of thousands of dollars in order to have fun! 》

New York Herald headline:

"One of China's top political tycoons can't understand the political reality of the United States!" 》

What kind of mess is this?! Not so good in this session of the American media!

Fortunately, there is also a copy of the New York Daily News, which also has a jade photo of me, a handsome guy. Let me have a good look......

Hey, this guy can't take pictures, can't he even take pictures and repair PS and Meitu? Shoot yourself like a ...... It's really a squint!

There is no way, the magnesium light is too bright these days, and Master Yuan, who is still inexperienced, was flashed by the strong light, and couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Forget it, let's take a look at the content of the report:

"Professor Germain's son accused of German espionage, his revenge on the Democratic government: 250 votes!" 》

Yuan Yanqian observed a minute of silence in her heart for Professor Chandler. It's really none of my business, but after this time, you're going to be a big deal in terms of campaign forecasting, and this idea attack is nothing. You also want to thank me as a student!

He felt less guilty when he thought about it.

"Neo, it's time for you to sign."

"Okay......

Our Master Yuan didn't realize at this moment that these reports had not only increased his prestige, but also raised his level......

Meanwhile, in the Morgan Consortium office on Wall Street, there are two really big men who are stomping their feet and the whole world is shaking.

"Uncle George, have you decided to retire?"

"Yes, little John. I'm eighty years old, and of course I'm going to give up my seat to young people like you. ”

"Hahaha, I'm almost sixty years old, what kind of young man is it? Uncle George, you really don't look like an eighty-year-old man at all. In my opinion, you can keep going! ”

"Little John, I'm not as good as your father, so let me enjoy my old age in peace."

"Uncle George" is naturally Mr. George F. Baker, whom our Master Yuan has met. Born in 1840, he is really eighty years old now, and in the original timeline, probably because of the relationship of often playing small white balls, he lived until 1933 in one breath and died at the age of ninety-three.

John Jr. is John Pierpont Morgan, Jr., son of the famous John Pierpont Morgan. Needless to say, JP Morgan is the one who created the "Morgan era" in which the financial oligarchy dominated the corporate tycoons.

After his death in 1913, J.P. Morgan became the head of the Morgan Consortium, the head of the eight major American conglomerates. (note 1)

Mr. JP Morgan Jr. said helplessly: "Uncle George, since you have decided, I will not say more. Let's celebrate your retirement with dinner together. Please wait a minute, I'll be right away. Why don't you start with a glass of whiskey? ”

Mr. Baker replied, "Forget about the wine." By the way, is today's evening newspaper coming? ”

"Is Uncle George going to know about the election? I remembered that Westinghouse had sent a toy in the next room. If you want to know the real-time feed, you can try that...... Well, the radio. (note 2.)

"Radio, I got one too. But forget it, I'll read the newspaper. ”

"Alright, I'll call someone in right away. You can rest assured that the Republican Party will win a big victory this time. ”

"I've done polls privately, and this time it's fine. But...... Hmph, the Republican guys are getting worse and worse. actually picked a wreck who has a beautiful face and beautiful speech, and his ass is not clean, I don't know what those people think? ”

"Uncle George, don't complain. Warren is still quite obedient, and doesn't he have 'Silent Calvin' as his deputy? ”

"Mr. Baker, Mr. Morgan, today's evening newspaper."

It didn't take long for the secretary outside to deliver a stack of newspapers.

George Baker put on his reading glasses and flipped through them casually, and when he saw the big news made by Yuan Yanqian, he couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha......"

The head of the Morgan consortium asked curiously, "Uncle George, what are you laughing at?" ”

"Little John, look at this press release."

"NYU's crazy doctor's crazy bet? Wow, 250 votes! ”

"I know this NYU crazy doctor, my grandson's classmate, a very interesting Chinese. Well, this little guy is really interesting! ”

"Uncle George, do you think you can really win that much?"

"According to the polls we've done, a big win is definitely a big win. But it's so much better...... It's not impossible. ”

"Uncle George, are you so confident in that Chinese? Why don't I take a gamble with you? ”

"Okay, what are you betting on?"

Note 1: Before World War II, there were eight major conglomerates in the United States, namely Morgan, Kuhn-Loeb (Jewish), Rockefeller, Chicago, Mellon, DuPont, Boston, and Cleveland. After World War II, there were the ten major consortia of Rockefeller, Morgan, First Citibank, DuPont, Boston, Mellon, Cleveland, Chicago, California, and Texas.

Note 2: Westinghouse is actually controlled by the Rockefeller consortium. Although I didn't check the list of Westinghouse Electric's shareholders in 1920 (to be honest, I didn't have a place to look it up), it stands to reason that the Morgan consortium should also own some shares. After all, the relationship between the two companies is quite good, and it is very normal for a financial consortium like Morgan to hold shares in Westinghouse.
