Left Citibank.

Ji Cheng sat in a bulletproof car and walked towards Huajin Capital.

Jingle bell, cell phone rings.

He took out his mobile phone and connected the phone, "Hello, I'm Ji Cheng." ”

There was Peter on the other end. Peterson's voice, "I heard you fell out with Citibank, State Street, and Vanguard?" ”

Ji Cheng was stunned for a moment, "Peter, how did you know?" ”

"Know Lawrence. Fink? "Peter. Peterson asked.

Of course, Ji Cheng knew, "Your partner, the current controller of Blackstone Financial Management Company, is nominally affiliated with your Blackstone Group. ”

Peter. Peterson said with hatred in his tone, "That's right, it's him, last year I recruited three senior partners, namely Lehman Brothers' banker Roger Brown. Altman, Lawrence of the First Boston Bank's Mortgage Securities Division. Fink and another former Dave. Stockman, I'm afraid that a few of them will fight for power, so I'm sorry for Lawrence. Fink formed companies primarily engaged in mortgage securities and other fixed income securities, namely Blackstone Financial Management, Blackstone Group and Lawrence. Fink holds 50 percent of the shares, but I didn't expect to be so careful, and something went wrong. ”

Ji Cheng had searched for information about Black Stone and Black Rock in the modern world, and probably knew what was going on.

Ever since Peter. After Peterson found three senior partners in 1988, he had less or less say in the firm.

Historically, by 1992, Schwartzman would gradually gain major control of the Blackstone Group and force Peter to take control of the group. Peterson gives more shares to the new partners.

And here, Peter. Peterson lost control of Blackstone completely.

In 1994, something even more excessive, that is, the assets under management of the Blackstone Financial Management Company reached $23 billion, and it was also the year that the Blackstone Financial Management Company was renamed the Blackstone Asset Management Company, which was later known as Bayde, and the company was sold to the National Bank Group of Pittsburgh at an ultra-low price of $240 million.

Doesn't it look like you've taken 20 million more?

In fact, the management fee charged by the other party every year after obtaining Belede is more than 20 million!

Suffice it to say, the National Bank of Pittsburgh paid almost $80 million for Bell.

Interestingly, the National Bank of Pittsburgh is actually owned by the Mellon consortium.

After the acquisition, the major shareholders of Belled are basically all companies under the major consortia of the beautiful country, such as Pioneer Group, State Street Bank, Beautiful Country Bank, Morgan Chase, Wellington Management Group, Morgan Stanley, etc.

Needless to say, Vanguard Group and State Street Bank.

Nifco Bank is part of a California consortium.

JPMorgan and Chase are controlled by the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family, and of course, JPMorgan Bank and Chase Bank have not yet merged.

Morgan Stanley is again owned by the Morgan family.

What's more, these companies are all cross-shareholding.

In the modern society, if you are careful to explore, you will definitely find that there are many large companies in the beautiful country, such as the Bank of Pretty Country, JP Chase & Co., Citigroup, State Street, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Beautiful China Bank, Mellon Bank and other companies.

What does this mean?

On behalf of the top ten consortia of beautiful countries, they are in collusion!

They will continue to infiltrate the major companies in the beautiful country by various means, and the Blackstone Group and the Blackrock Group are obviously among the infiltrators.

Ji Cheng went around in his head, and he didn't understand Peter. Why did Peterson suddenly bring up the matter, "Peter, you ......"

I'm not done, Peter. Peterson interrupted, saying, "I inadvertently got the news from Lawrence. Fink heard it while chatting with people. ”

Ji Cheng was stunned, "I just fell out with State Street Bank, Citibank and Pioneer Group, how did he know?" ”

"Think about it." Peter. Peterson is intriguing.

Ji Cheng was silent for a moment, and then a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "You mean ......?"

"That's right!" Peter. Peterson affirmed: "They're eyeing you, to be precise, Joaquin Capital, a potential company!" ”

Ji Cheng took a deep breath, "Do you know when it started?" ”

"It started when you moved the Rockefeller family cake." Peter. Peterson said.

Did I start selling Rockefeller Center to Mitsubishi Estate?

So why did State Street, Citibank, and Vanguard still ostensibly work with me before?

Is it trying to test my skills?

Ji Cheng felt that there was a good chance that it would be.

Why?

Because Ji Cheng thought that Citibank, Vanguard Group and State Street Bank were polite before he controlled the foreign exchange market of tens of billions of dollars, until he succeeded, he began to break his promise.

In other words, these consortia recognized his ability.

At first, when Ji Cheng heard John and himself reveal that information, he thought that Vanguard Group, State Street Bank and Citibank had just reached an agreement with the Rockefeller family.

Now it seems that this is not the case, but these big conglomerates feel that he can be subdued.

The top ten consortia wanted to suppress Huajin Capital by various means behind the scenes, forcing Ji Cheng to bow to one of the top ten consortia in exchange for stable development.

Citibank took the initiative to show favor before, obviously wanting to include Ji Cheng under its command, after all, he showed enough ability to be independent, if any consortium can absorb him, he can have one more capable general.

Then follow Peter. Analyzing the information revealed by Peterson, I am afraid that I will have to face not only the Rockefeller family, the Mellon family, Citibank, and State Street Group, but also the top ten consortia of beautiful countries.

These consortia will work together to suppress him, and at the same time play with each other to take him under their command for their own use.

Damn, you want me to be a wage earner?

Ji Cheng's eyes couldn't help narrowing, knowing that the enemy was very strong this time, at least before he got the admission ticket, these consortia would use various means to force himself to comply.

Now I only have two paths.

First, bow down to a certain consortium in exchange for shelter and development time.

Second, continue to fight, all the way to get a ticket to the game, and sit on an equal footing with these consortia.

The first path is relatively easy, but the highest achievement in the future is to die, that is, a senior worker.

The second way is to achieve even higher, that is, to become the eleventh largest consortium that controls the lifeblood of the beautiful country.

It's just that this road is destined to be rugged, and Ji Cheng has to break through the layers of encirclement of the top ten consortia, and one will be crushed if he is not careful.

Well, it's a bit of an exaggeration, but one thing is for sure, if he really fails, then don't want to mix in a beautiful country in the future, unless he goes to be a wage earner.

It's impossible to work part-time.

Ji Cheng didn't hesitate to have a choice, that is, to fight to the end!

Peter. Peterson was still saying, "Ji, if those consortia give you sweetness, don't eat it!" Or you'll do it again! ”

Ji Chengdao: "I know. He paused, "Peter, although I have a good relationship with you, it's not enough for you to call and remind you, right?" Do you have anything else going on? ”

"It deserves to be the Silver Lion of the East." Peter. Peterson exclaimed, "Mingren doesn't say dark words, let's make a deal." ”

Ji Chengdao: "What deal?" ”

Peter. Peterson said with a bit of madness in his tone: "You help me get Lawrence. Fink get out, and I'll work with you to fight these big conglomerates! ”

Put Lawrence. Fink kicked out?

This is equivalent to reorganizing the assets of the Blackstone Group by yourself!

Ji Cheng definitely doesn't have that much money on hand to do this, but if the short soybean futures are over, it may not be.

If he's not mistaken, Blackstone Financial Management now owns a stake in the oil giant Exxon, one of the few shares that the Rockefeller family previously controlled Exxon.

If Ji Cheng can help Peter. If Peterson regains full control of the entire Blackstone Group, then he can weaken the Rockefeller family's control over Exxon.

"Yes." Ji Cheng agreed, "It's just that I want to put Lawrence. Fink kicked out, I have to get a certain amount of equity in Blackstone Financial Management Company, preferably the equity of Blackstone Group, there is no way to operate without equity, and I don't have that much money to take the equity of your company now, wait a month...... No, half a month, I should have money by then. ”

"Half a month? You can get a lot of dollars in half a month? "Peter. Peterson wondered.

Ji Cheng doesn't believe anyone now, there is no and Peter. Peterson explains, "You'll know then. ”

Peter. Peterson also knew that there were some things that should not be asked, so he said, "Wait for your good news." ”

Hang up.

Ji Cheng closed his eyes and began to ponder things carefully.

Peter. Peterson took the initiative to come to the door for help, which was unexpected.

However, Blackstone Financial Management owns a small stake in Exxon, and if it can really get this ally, it may be an opportunity for Ji Cheng to break through the encirclement of the top ten consortia.

There are a lot of things he hasn't figured out yet.

But one thing is already clear, that is, he will fight with the top ten consortia from now on!

Thinking of this, the corners of Ji Cheng's mouth suddenly hooked an arc, and he opened his mouth to say to Tom, who was driving: "Go back to Citibank." ”

"Yes, sir."

Tom slows down and prepares to find a place to turn around.

"Wait! If you don't go, let's go back to Joajin Capital first. ”

Ji Cheng thought about it carefully and felt that it was not good to go back to Citibank now, and the intention was too obvious.

Yes, he's ready to play Infernal Affairs!

On the surface, he bowed to Citibank and took that billion loan, so that the other party thought that he was subservient and could detect the movement of funds, but in fact, he would come up with a plan to repair the plank road and secretly Chen Cang.

It's just that if he goes back so rashly, Citibank will definitely suspect him.

Unless you ...... was suppressed and "humiliated" to go back to ask for help.

Ji Cheng laughed, and when that time comes, let alone Citibank, no one in the top ten consortia of the beautiful country will suspect him of cheating.

Of course, he will definitely let these people find out that they are "cheating", otherwise how can they trap those consortia?

……

Back to Joaquin Capital.

As soon as Ji Cheng walked in, he saw Steve. White and Sophia. Green's face was extremely solemn, and he didn't know what to talk about.

He stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Mr. Cheng."

"Mr. Cheng."

The two first said hello.

Immediately Steve. White frowned and said, "Today, several companies with more potential that the company has taken a fancy have been snatched away. ”

Sofia. Green seemed a little aggrieved, "A few companies originally verbally agreed with us, just waiting for the formal signing of the contract, but today they called one after another, telling me that there is no need to invest, at first I thought the conditions were low, and I was ready to negotiate with them again, but I didn't expect to hear from various channels that these companies have been won by different venture capital companies, including Rock Capital and Citigroup Ventures." ”

Yo, do it so soon?

Ji Cheng didn't show any emotion, waved his hand and said, "If you are robbed, you will be robbed, you can continue to do other things." ”：

"Mr. Cheng, there is one more thing."

Steve. White smiled bitterly: "If this matter is not resolved, I'm afraid we won't be busy if we want to continue to be busy." ”

"Oh?" Ji Cheng asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"The government department of the beautiful country sent someone over, saying that our company's business project is not clear, not only issued a fine, but also asked us to clarify the business project before we can continue to operate." Steve. White said helplessly: "I'm afraid we won't be able to open for business in a short time, if we follow the normal process, it will take at least half a month to solve." ”

Half a month?

Isn't this the time limit for shorting soybean futures yourself?

As soon as Ji Cheng heard it, he knew that those big conglomerates had begun to suppress themselves.

According to the normal plot, if Huajin Capital can't operate in a short time, then the funds can't go to the company's account, let alone short soybean futures.

It's a pity that a lot of Ji Cheng's funds are in private accounts, and he is not afraid of these small means at all.

"yes, I see." Ji Cheng nodded, and began to give orders in an orderly manner, saying: "Strip out all the projects that are not clear about the operation, and re-establish several wholly-owned holding subsidiaries." ”

"Uh......" Steve. White was a little confused, "It's not good for our company to start divesting the business before it gets on the right track, right?" ”

Ji Cheng didn't know that it was not good to do this, but since he was going to fight with the beautiful national consortium this time, once he succeeded, many of the company's businesses themselves would have to be spun off, so it was better to take the opportunity to divest them first, "Do what I say!" ”

"Understood, Mr. Cheng." Steve. White didn't say anything more.

Sofia. Green opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.

Ji Cheng waved his hand, "You cooperate with Steve to handle the company's affairs first, don't worry about the rest, I still have something to do." ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked out, and said to Tom, "Let's go, let's go to Citibank now!" ”

Oh, I just said that it was not the right time.

I didn't expect it to be so soon.

Ji Cheng knew that the battle between himself and the beautiful country consortium had begun.

Lose, and he will have nothing.

If you win, you can get a ticket.

He doesn't seem to have any other choice but to succeed, but until then, he can buy himself a little time.
