Chapter 406: The Morgan Family, the Eight Consortiums
"Since you say so. There should already be a candidate!" Lin Yi said.
Dawson looked at Lin Yi and spit out four words.
"The Morgans!"
"The Morgans?"
Lin Yi was a little surprised.
It's not because the other party is not famous, it's too famous, and Lin Yi also knows this family, after all, Huck belongs to this family.
Morgan's gold, Rockefeller's oil, were once America's two superfamilies.
"Isn't Morgan's focus now on finance? Although they still have a background in gold and have the right to speak, they shouldn't have much to do with us, so it's not cost-effective to go to the other party and owe a favor for nothing. Lin Yi shook his head.
The other party's focus is on finance, although it has the ability to help Lin Yi, but the debt is the most difficult to repay.
"Nope. You're wrong. Sir, the other party still has a say in the gold market. Dawson shook his head, then asked.
"Sir, do you know Newmont Mining?"
"Of course. This is the world's second largest gold producer after Barrick Gold. Lin Yi nodded, he knew it well.
"Do you know who's behind Newmont?" Dawson then asked.
Lin Yi thought for a moment, raised his head and said, "Could it be the Morgan family?"
Dawson nodded and said: "Maybe many people think that this mining company, founded in 1921, has nothing to do with the Morgan family, but in fact, the relationship between this company and the Morgan family is far deeper than outsiders know."
As far as I know, when Newmont was founded, it was heavily funded by the Morgan family, and later in 1925, when Newmont Mining was listed in New York, Australia and Toronto, the main driving force behind it was also the Morgan family.
Otherwise, how could he have been listed on the stock market of three major mining countries at the same time with his small mining company, which had just been established for four years? More than 10 years after its listing, Newmont owned 12 gold mines in the United States at once, and in 1940 it merged with South Africa's Ukip Copper Company, thus becoming the world's third largest copper company in one fell swoop. ”
These words made Lin Yi's back feel a chill. Lin Yi has long heard of the eight major consortia in the United States, no, it should be said that he already has a great understanding, even if he is always nested in the manor, or hunting for treasures alone and playing stand-alone, but he must also understand the situation of these consortia.
These eight major consortia are the foundation of the American economy, especially the old families like Rockefeller, Morgan, and Mellon, and the background is even more unfathomable.
Although these old families suffered a heavy blow in the antitrust movement, these old families quickly adjusted their business ideas, broke up the whole family, and held shares with each other, forming an economic net covering all walks of life in the United States, firmly tying the entire American country to their chariot.
Although Lin Yi knew these things, Lin Yi didn't know the specific things, after all, the companies that the eight major consortia deliberately exposed outside were enough to attract people's attention, but Tang Feng never expected that under those large groups that were in the limelight. These old eight consortia still have deeper and stronger strength.
What's more, Lin Yi had always thought that he would have very little contact with them before, and there would not be much intersection, and at the same time, because of the huge power of the other party, he was unwilling to have too much intersection.
To put it bluntly, it is jealousy.
Lin Yi was afraid of them.
After all, this is the capitalist world, and the energy that money has, Lin Yi, as a vested interest, knows it too well.
It is precisely because it is clear that it is fearful.
But he believes. As long as he has time, he alone can compare to these consortia. He had that faith.
But then again, although Lin Yi knew that these consortia had countless assets, there were many more, and Lin Yi had never thought about it at all, such as this Newmont gold turned out to be owned by the Morgan family, which Lin Yi never thought of.
In fact, it is no wonder, after all, the old eight major consortia relied on mining, finance, banking, transportation, steel, and arms industries to make their fortunes, so they are in these industries in the United States. Naturally, these veteran consortia are indispensable. And how could Newmont, as the world's second largest and the largest gold company in the United States, not be controlled by these old families?
Thinking of this, Lin Yi realized how big the gap between himself and these old consortia was, and perhaps as time went by, he who had the ability to be close to himself could leave these old families far behind. But now, in the eyes of these behemoths, I am afraid that I am really no different from a dish.
However, this also made Lin Yi more determined to introduce partners. In the United States, it is not the president of the United States who really controls the country, but the invisible rich, the big people in those big families, and likewise, Lin Yi himself.
Yes, with Lin Yi's assets, this has already entered this level.
Thinking of this, Lin Yi said, "Dawson." What are your thoughts?"
Dawson said: "When dealing with these old families, we must think of a perfect strategy, otherwise if there is any omission, we will either be swallowed by these old families or kicked out by these old families." Partnering with these people is definitely a double-edged sword, if we play well, it will be of great benefit to our own growth, but if we play badly, then what awaits us will be an unfathomable abyss. ”
"Of course. Don't worry this time, we've taken the initiative enough that they can't do anything to us. What's more, they'll wonder if it's worth falling out with you for a mine that you can't necessarily get their hands on?"
"And me?" Lin Yi was stunned.
My face is so big, this face is worth tens of billions?
"Of course it's not worth that much!" seemed to see Lin Yi's thoughts, and Dawson interrupted Lin Yi's fantasy.
"This time we were very well prepared. There's no chance for them, even if they want to. There is not much benefit, so your face is enough, and sir, don't underestimate your face, you are also a hundred billion man. I'm saying this to remind you. Be careful when working with these consortia in the future. ”
Hundreds of billions of men, with a net worth of more than 100 billion men.
It is also believed that only *** has a net worth.
"Well, isn't that you? Lin Yi said heartlessly.
"But since I need to work with the Morgan family. Well, we're going to find Huck!"
