For this reason, many companies with operations at Tokyo Pier have suspended their cooperation with Tokyo Terminal in protest.

People within the Iwasaki family are also very opposed to Kitajima's high position, which puts a lot of pressure on Yataro Iwasaki.

However, Kitajima finally lived up to his expectations, and in less than a year, the performance of Tokyo Pier increased by 40%, and even the companies that had suspended cooperation with Tokyo Pier were pulled back by him, and proved that Yataro Iwasaki's decision was not wrong with practical actions.

It was also from that time that Kitajima's name really became famous, and even the top figures in the circle such as Iwasaki Sanosuke and Ishibashi Taiyoshi valued Kitajima very much.

Now, Kitajima came straight to Marin and Sumitomoo, and said to Marin with a smile:

"I didn't expect to see Miss Ma here, it's so unexpected, you're so beautiful tonight."

As soon as Kitajima's words came out, the people around him were even more shocked, because judging from Kitajima's words, he and Marin had obviously known each other for a long time, and their relationship was still very good.

The three of them were chatting here, but the people around them were all surprised. Not only Sumitomo of the Sumitomo Foundation, but even Kitajima, Yataro's most important right-hand man, has a very good relationship with Marin, and many of these people only met Marin for the first time today, but they don't know where Marin is sacred, and they can actually make friends with Sumitomo and Kitajima, the two leaders of the younger generation.

Koji and Mamoru Ishibashi, who were arguing over Marin, saw that Marin had such a good chat with Sumitomo and Kitajima, and their faces became gloomy in surprise.

Especially Koji, Marin was able to befriend the boss of Tokyo Shipping and co-founded Tokyo Express with him, and then he was impressed by the old man Iwasaki and personally wooed him, which already made Koji jealous.

Now that Marin is still befriending those real young heroes of Sumitomoo, Hikatsu is extremely uncomfortable.

Here, Ishibashi Taiyoshi also smiled at Zuo Zhisuke:

"Zuo Nosuke, Miss Ma is really well-connected, not only do I know Sumitomo, but even Kitajima has such a good relationship with her, it's so surprising."

In fact, Taiji is also very uncomfortable in his heart. Because he thought that if he wanted to deal with Marin, the biggest obstacle would be the Iwasaki family, but now it seems that Marin himself is not a soft persimmon to be kneaded, so it will be much trickier for him to deal with Marin.

But at this moment, everyone saw a middle-aged white man come to the side of Marin and the three, patted Marin's snow shoulder and said with a smile:

"Miss Ma, I didn't expect to see you here."

Seeing this man who suddenly appeared and was kind to Marin, everyone gasped fiercely, and even Iwasaki Sanosuke and Iwasaki Kuya were surprised.

Because this man is none other than Antonio, the credit manager of Citibank.

Antonio is the manager of the credit department of Citibank, and his authority in Citibank is very large, and if he is ranked from the CEO of Citibank, Antonio's position and power can rank in the top five.

is also the manager of the credit department, whether it is Ryosuke in the past or the current manager of the credit department of the Bank of Tokyo UKJ, he is far inferior to Antonio. After all, Citibank is a top bank with trillions of dollars in money, and it is also a giant in the banking industry, and the Bank of Tokyo UKJ is much smaller and less influential than Citigroup.

The most obvious difference is that Ryosuke had to approve a loan of more than $5 million with the consent of Zuo Nosuke.

The maximum amount of loans that Antonio can approve is $500 million, and loans in excess of $500 million are subject to board discussion.

Many companies in Dongying do not have the unlimited scenery as imagined, after all, assets are not cash!

In addition, the housing prices in Dongying are super high, and an office building in the CBD business district ranges from at least hundreds of millions of dollars to billions of dollars, and these fixed assets also raise some so-called rich people, so many companies have to borrow from banks, which must go through Antonio, the high-level personnel who control the bank's credit authority, so Antonio's position in the business district of Dongying is also very important.

Sometimes, the attitude of major companies towards Antonio is more respectful than that of officials.

Now, it is surprising that Antonio took the initiative to talk to Marin.

Because even the head of a large family like Ishibashi Taiyoshi may not have the opportunity to talk to Antonio, and the other young ones are even more rare.

I saw that Antonio was dressed like a gentleman today, and there was a blonde beauty with charm around him holding his arm, thinking that it should be his wife.

Suddenly seeing Yataro Iwasaki, Marin was also very surprised, and immediately greeted with a smile:

"Antonio? You're here too, aren't you? Oh, this must be your lady, hello lady. ”

Antonio's wife also immediately smiled at Marin and nodded, and Antonio smiled:

"Miss Ma, you've been very busy lately, I haven't seen you come to my house to sit down during this time? No, I've managed to get some top-notch black tea lately, so you should definitely find a time to try it. ”

The people around him became more and more surprised when they heard this, and the people who could come to Antonio's house as guests were all top figures in the political and business worlds, and it was even more rare for him to take the initiative to invite, but they didn't expect Marin to have such an honor.

This time, even Sumitomo and Kitajima had to be surprised, even if they were, Antonio is also a very heavyweight, and it is not easy to meet each other, not to mention that Antonio can take the initiative to invite him to his home as a guest?

Kitajima looked at Marin and thought to himself that this guy was really hidden, and even the general manager of Citi Asia Pacific could make friends.

Just listen to Marin laugh at Antonio:

"Since Mr. Antonio is so gracious, I have to say yes. However, I remember that when you drink black tea, you like to drink a lot of sugar and milk, and this has to be changed, otherwise it will be bad for your health. ”

Antonio's wife then said:

"That's right, that's right, this guy likes sweets, and he's a handful of old people, so he doesn't know how to pay attention at all. Miss Ma, you have to help me supervise him well, don't let him be too unscrupulous. ”

"Certainly, I promise to complete the task you have given me, madam." Marin Waner smiled:

"By the way, ma'am, how do you usually take care of your skin? Why can't I see a wrinkle on my face? You really have to teach me, so that I can keep my youth alive in the future. ”

There is really no woman in this world who doesn't like to be praised by others, especially Antonio's wife, who is in her forties this year, and is worried about her old age.

"Where, I don't dare to look in the mirror now, for fear of seeing wrinkles on my face, where can I talk about any maintenance."

In the middle of a few words, Marin and Antonio's wife became estranged and chatted very well, which made Antonio himself admire.

Sumitomo and Kitajima glanced at each other, and they both felt that Marin was too bewitching, not only could he make friends with a character like Antonio, but even his wife could maximize the relationship with him when they met for the first time, and this level of communication was inevitably too high.
