Volume IV: Prosperity 20 Ambitions Kennedy

Kennedy's grandfather was an Irish immigrant who came to the United States penniless, thanks to the Irish drunkards, and later made a fortune running a tavern.

By his father's generation, he was already an entrepreneur in Boston, and sent his only son to Harvard University, where he met Robles.

After graduating from Harvard, Kennedy was determined to become a millionaire at the age of 30. Where does the money come from? Where does the money go?

His answer was in the bank, so he did not hesitate to devote himself to the banking and financial industry. With the help of Kennedy Sr., Kennedy is now the president of the Bank of Boston.

After planning, he also married the daughter of the mayor of Boston, and his influence crossed from business to politics. After three generations of struggle, his family has now managed to rise to the top of society.

"It's a good course, and I'm going to buy one like this if I have the chance." Kennedy smiled a little reservedly.

Now being able to play on the golf course with Wall Street predators has satisfied his vanity.

The only thing he regretted was that in Boston, the Catholic Irish descendants were in the minority, and the Kennedys were not very popular with the Puritans, and despite their fortune, they were stubbornly regarded as the grandsons of the Irish taverns, much to the annoyance of the self-respecting Kennedy.

Make sure the family is the best in the United States!

He secretly made up his mind, used all his strength, and knocked the golf ball into the air, looking at the small white ball flying high in the air, his gaze was firm, and it took a long time to turn around, and his face became smooth again.

"Among so many classmates, it is still you who is the best, self-made, and the famous Robles Securities Company, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it?"

Kennedy looked at Robles with some envy, looking a little flattering. I thought to myself, if I knew that this guy could have today's achievements, I should have befriended him well in the first place. Fortunately, it's not too late.

"Thank you. I didn't expect it, but along the way, my luck has always been good, and there are some mysteries in it, and I'll tell you about it when I have the chance. ”

Robles made a small sale, and he was proud that he had not had such an opportunity to accept the compliment of Kennedy, an unruly fellow.

Well, when I refused the support of the Mellon family, I was a little down-to-earth when I relied on myself for everything, but it's good to be down-to-heart, and I can meet that guy who is also down.

It's just that that guy is a little perverted now, prostituting himself during the day, and refusing to date himself, and his character is very bad. Robles cursed inwardly.

Luck?

Kennedy scoffed at Robles's words, smiled flatteringly, and said, "I really miss my days at school, carefree, working on projects with my mentors, having a pure interest in knowledge, and having such a large group of friends?????? ”

Kennedy sighed with emotion, his words seemed to evoke Robles's memory, and the estranged friendship between them seemed to have strengthened a lot.

Robles nodded, not speaking, as if thinking about something.

"By the way, I just came to New York, and I'm not too familiar with the market here, old friends, you have to take care of it." Kennedy smiled enthusiastically. Finance is a gamble, and when he came to the bigger casino in New York from Boston, he was a little excited, excited, and a little apprehensive.

"Opportunity, courage, confidence, determination, these are the basic elements. It is also necessary to understand people's hearts, the most important information. Robles spoke eloquently.

Kennedy nodded in agreement. That being said, it's harder to do. However, he was very appreciative of the word information mentioned by Robles, and said to himself: Didn't I come to you?

Kennedy's attitude satisfied Robles, and after a while, Robles said, "It's not hard for you to make money on Wall Street now, Joseph, you're a smart man." But it's hard to say if you can achieve your desired goal. There are so many projects here that you can invest in almost anything, and how you choose is key.

The most important areas of the American business community have been carved up by several major conglomerates, and it is difficult for ordinary people to insert themselves into them. If you want to do big things on Wall Street, I recommend investing in emerging industries. Your temperament is ruthless enough, wave enough, and fast enough, and I believe that you can get what you want in the emerging industry. You tell me? ”

Robles's assessment of Kennedy was somewhat blunt, but Kennedy accepted it cheekily.

Robles's words, Kennedy thinks about it and thinks it makes sense, there are more than money, he can't play with these giants on Wall Street, and he is unwilling to eat some scraps behind their backs, so let's listen to what Robles has to say.

"Do you have anything to build?" Kennedy looked at Robles expectantly. It seems that something is found in the other person's face.

"There are quite a few. We've been investing in a lot of things lately, oil, steel, energy, cars, but none of that is right for you. ”

Saying this, Robles deliberately glanced at Kennedy, Kennedy froze when he heard this, his face changed slightly, and he glanced at Robles a little angrily, and then flashed again.

scolded in his heart: "*** Robles, don't you look down on people?" Anyway, I'm also a millionaire, and I'm the president of the Bank of Boston, and I have hundreds of dollars in money."

Kennedy was a gloomy man after all, and he looked at Robles's somewhat mysterious look, and some suspected that this guy was deliberately provoking himself in this way.

Is he trying to deliberately provoke me and encourage me to invest in those projects? Or is there some trap waiting for me? Steel, oil? It's not fun! Can you afford to play on your own?

It's better to be cautious, these Wall Street guys aren't very reliable, and who knows how much this thin friendship will be worth?

Robles didn't know that Kennedy, who was gloomy and suspicious by nature, thought so much at once, he was just a casual joke.

Of course, it would be good if he could get investment from Kennedy, and using his money to invest in his own projects and borrowing chickens to lay eggs is also a win-win situation, but he just made a lot of money.

"Are you interested in radio broadcasting?" Robles asked suddenly.

"Radio broadcasting? The one Los Angeles and Westinghouse are they working on? Kennedy came to be interested.

"Yes." Robles nodded, "The radio station in Los Angeles was invested by our company, and now we are preparing to establish a radio company in big cities such as New York, if you are interested, I can leave a share or two for you." What do you mean? ”

One or two percent?

Radio broadcasting was what Robles called a new industry, with great prospects, and Kennedy was also interested, and he was about to say "too little", but it immediately occurred to him that he should be cautious so as not to be deceived.

If the effect is good, it is not too late to increase investment.

He secretly made up his mind in his heart, nodded, and asked with a smile, "What else?" ”

"How's the movie? Interested? Fox Films is building a luxury movie theater in New York, and has already built one, which is on Broadway, and it is very popular. I'll take you to see it tomorrow. Robles laughed.

"Okay." Kennedy nodded, and Robles went to the cinema tomorrow.

The next evening, Kennedy arrived on Broadway early.

Broadway is much more prosperous than Boston, with high-rise buildings, hotels, busy traffic, noisy cars, neon lights, billboards, clothes and fashion, and all kinds of exquisite jewelry stores, it is a veritable modern city.

The grand opera hall and the lively movie theater fascinated Kennedy, although it was not the first time he had seen such a scene, but such a dense flow of people, those well-dressed gentlemen and their flamboyant and modern female companions, made Kennedy feel that there were countless banknotes flowing around him.

Entertainment industry! There's a lot of money.

Kennedy sighed with emotion, feeling that his heart had been corrupted by this city that was corrupted by money, and that there was no trace of freshness in him from the puritanical atmosphere of Boston, and only this golden palace city, with its lavish bills, made him feel fanatical.

Getting out of the car, Kennedy walked into the Fox theater, stood at the door of the movie theater, looked at the flamboyant and seductive Hollywood actress poster, he smiled slightly, and silently counted the number of people who entered the movie theater.

After getting a satisfactory number, it was still a little early, and he walked back to the car and visited the other movie theaters on Broadway.

People are constantly coming in and out of the door of the movie theater, many viewers are interested in the plot, discussing the plot of the movie while walking, Kennedy can basically be sure that after the Wall Street explosion, Harding came to power and other events, the wave of red terror has gradually stopped, and the settled Americans have a good time, the entertainment industry will be part of their consumption, and movies and radio will replace newspapers as a major choice for people's pastime.

Back at Fox Theaters, Kennedy also came to the conclusion that this seems to be the most luxurious and popular movie theater in all of New York, and the few movie theaters being built on the street are probably the best of the best.

He straightened his clothes and entered the cinema with a confident face, and today he was going to meet Robles' partner, the legendary boss behind Robles Securities.

Kennedy was taken to a luxurious box, and when he came in, the movie had already begun, and two young men were seated in the room, watching the movie and discussing something.

The light was dim, and Kennedy recognized it at a glance, one of them was his classmate Robles, and the other man was only seen in the side, slender and extraordinary, well, with black hair and black eyes, as if he were of some Asian ancestry, not quite like the Anglo-Saxon with rosacea and red hair in his impression.

Is he the Lord today? How could he rise to Wall Street among the Anglo-Saxons and Jews?

For a moment, Kennedy's mind suddenly crossed this flurry of questions, and when he came in, he did not speak, and in that dimly lit room, time seemed to stand still in that instant.

"Joseph, it's great that you're here. I thought something had happened to you. Robles laughed.

"Just stuck in traffic, a lot of meaning, it's late." Kennedy smiled, smiled again and nodded to Situ Nan.

"Is this my partner and dead Tony Sothony? William, this is my classmate, Joseph, a banker from Boston? Kennedy," Robles introduced.

"Hello."

"Hello." ??????

Situ Nan knew from Robles that he was going to see this Kennedy today, and he was still a little suspicious in his heart, but looking at the tall, strong, sharp-eyed white handsome guy in front of him, Situ Nan recognized it at first sight, he was Joseph? Kennedy!

The founder of the Kennedy family in the United States!

When Situ Nan looked at Kennedy, Kennedy was also looking at Situ Nan, a pair of eagle eyes shining in the dim light.

"Ambitious and unruly." Situ Nan's heart evaluation of Joseph? Kennedy. Does he know Joseph? Kennedy made his fortune investing in stocks and movies in New York and other places in the 20s, but he didn't expect to get entangled with himself.

It's so much fun! It's not bad to witness the birth of a family. However, this Kennedy is not a kind-hearted person, not to mention his ruthlessness, it seems that his character is not so ??????

Forget it, forgive him for not daring to scheming with himself, he is still tender now.

Situ Nan thought to himself.

"Mr. Kennedy, oh no, Joseph, I may call you that, right? Of course, you are welcome to call me Stoney. Situ Nan said.

"Of course, Stoney has something to say." Kennedy laughed.

"Are you interested in politics? Joseph. What do you think of the Harding government? Situ Nan asked.

"Harding? He's a nice elder, easy-going, and should be a good president. Kennedy was a little strange, thinking of the tax cut bill that had just been passed, and he added, "The government has done a lot of good things, at least it can reduce the high-income portion of the personal tax to 50%, which is good news." ”

"That's just as well." Situ Nan and Robles looked at each other and smiled, after Situ Nan returned to New York, he shared the situation on Jekyl Island with Robles, as for the high personal tax, it was indeed a little unpleasant. Well, the room was full of rich people.

This Kennedy still doesn't know the relationship between Stuart South and the Mellon family, otherwise he would praise Andrew hard? Mellon.

Seeing that Situ Nan and Robles were interested in their words, Kennedy said, "It would be nice if it could be lower, for example, 20% is more reasonable." ”

"Well said. Joseph, if you were to run for president, I would definitely vote for you. When Situ Nan said this, he deliberately paid attention to Kennedy's expression.

"President?" Kennedy was slightly stunned, his eyes lit up, and he seemed to be very interested in Situ Nan's words.

Yes, if the Kennedys could produce a president, would they still be looked down upon? The Kennedy family will surely become one of the most prominent families in the United States.

Well, it is necessary not only to raise the status of the Kennedy family financially, but also to increase the influence of the Kennedy family politically.

Yes, the Kennedy family will definitely have a president, if not me, but my son, grandson.

Well, when I go back, I must train those guys strictly. Joseph Jr., John Jr., Robert Jr????? One by one, it will always work!

Kennedy swore inwardly. was slightly provoked by Situ Nan, and his ambition skyrocketed wildly, like a hidden seed suddenly breaking through the ground.

Judging from his face, Situ Nan felt that Kennedy, who had a high head and a wide forehead and black-framed glasses, looked a bit like Li Superman.

It's just his personal feelings. Kennedy's ambition and domineering, that kind of spiritual fanaticism are not comparable to Li Chaoman.

Situ Nan didn't know what Kennedy was thinking, but he was sure that this guy's desire and greed for politics and money was evident from the fact that their family was getting stronger from generation to generation, as if it had been planned step by step.

This ambition has imprinted the family's belief in becoming a man from the moment the destitute Irish immigrant set foot in Boston decades ago.

This Joseph was enchanted by Situ Nan's words, did he really want to run for president? Well, maybe this narcissistic, stubborn, ambitious person really thinks like this.

The thought popped into Robles's mind, and he turned his head to see Situ Nan sipping his wine, looking at Kennedy's with a meaningful smile, as if he knew something.

Damn, that's a weird feeling.

In a short split second, Robles' mind was filled with so many jumbled thoughts. He shook his head, and when he saw that Kennedy didn't speak, he smiled and said, "Joseph, you don't really want to be crooked, do you?" ”

Robles's joke brought Kennedy back to his senses, his face was a little flushed, not too obvious in the dim light, but he said disdainfully: "My insistence, you don't understand!" ”

"If I become president, I'm going to raise taxes to 250 percent and pay all of you rich people. Hehe. ”

Kennedy laughed dryly, looking a little shameless.

"I'm so scared. What about the fact that the United States does not yet have a 30-year-old president? If you want to be president and make enough money, let's talk about it. If you try to save money now, you may be able to save enough money in 20 years. ”

Robles laughed.

"Okay, now let's talk about how to make money. How's that, what do you think of my previous construction? ”

"It's okay to invest in movies, and I'm willing to try wireless broadcasting projects." Kennedy smiled, secretly paying attention to the face of Situ Nan, who was sitting on the side.

Just now, he was so young that he provoked so many thoughts, and his confident smile and relaxed appearance seemed to easily affect people's minds and make people easily believe him. Now he sat quietly on the side, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was calculating something.

What a mysterious and powerful guy!

Kennedy said to himself. It's okay, don't mess with this kind of person.

"That's good. Specifically, we will find time to discuss with the company in detail. We're going to make it, Joseph, do you think so? Robles said.

"Of course." Kennedy looked confident, raised his glass, and said, "Why success is a friendly toast." ”

After a drink, the relationship between the three became quite familiar. After negotiating business, Robles was in a good mood and said with some emotion: "The two of you almost met at the beginning." ”

"Oh?"

"But this guy rarely participates in our activities except for the library and apartment, so most of them don't know that he has been at Harvard for half a year. Of course, you don't have to squeeze that kind of cheap apartment Joseph. ”

Robles couldn't help but tell the secret.

Kennedy was surprised, but he didn't expect that such a character was hidden in the school, which really embarrassed him to call himself the best student.

"That's a pity. Didn't expect us to be so close? Kennedy said, looking at Situ Nan with burning eyes. He was more interested in Situ Nan's experience, but Robles didn't mention it. Moved on to other things.

"Huh. Don't you know each other now? Situ Nan smiled faintly. Don't want this guy to know his business.
