Chapter 61: The Manhattan Prosecutor
One in Hollywood,
There are not 800 times a day, but at least 4 or 500 open and secret battles.
Erupted between Liv Taylor and Sarah Michelle Gayla.
But for the guests on the ship, or for Ovitz, they didn't bother to bother with such things.
Since you are on the boat, it means that you have agreed to the rules.
If you agree to the rules, you must act within the rules.
If you violate the rules, you will be banned from this circle to some extent in the future.
You can choose not to come, you can choose to decline.
At best, it's just a lost opportunity.
But if you come and quit halfway through.
Punishment is inevitable and often unaffordable.
Within the rules, if you want to make trouble, then Ovitz and they don't care.
The conflict between Liv and Sarah now belongs to the conflict within the rules.
They really don't care.
It is also among actresses who are interested in this kind of thing.
Happy to watch from the sidelines, watch jokes, watch tricks.
To put it bluntly, it's the little intrigue among women.
The other side.
Abel didn't know that in his absence.
Ms. Liv Taylor, a well-known tea master, began her tea art performance.
He, with Bloomberg, came to the tail of the "Ovitz".
It's a spacious platform that doesn't compare to the forward deck.
The area should be forty or fifty square meters, and it is surrounded by railings.
About ten meters behind him is the cabin.
The whole space has an unobstructed view, and it is suitable for talking about things when you look at it.
Especially in the back, there is a beautiful view of the ocean.
It's actually an observation deck.
By this time, "Ovitz" had been sailing for forty minutes.
Due to the slow speed, you can still see the silhouette of Manhattan and New York Harbor in the distance.
Bloomberg stood by the railing and looked back at Abel, who was following him.
Abel slowly walked up to him and quietly looked at the fifty-something tycoon.
"Mr. Smith, you may have received some rumors."
Bloomberg looked around to make sure no one was there.
Whispered, "Someone is investigating you, and your company." ”
Abel's face did not change, but his heart moved slightly.
Did Bloomberg call himself over to talk to him about it?
In this case, Mr. Bloomberg may really know something he doesn't know.
To put it bluntly, Bloomberg and his Bloomberg.
In fact, it is a large business intelligence sales company.
Bloomberg, which is rooted in New York, may even be more familiar with New York than FBl and ClA.
If this guy was willing, there were very few things in New York that he would have hidden.
This guy eats this bowl of rice.
"David told me. Someone is indeed looking into me and my company. Abel replied softly.
According to David Mellon, the matter is in the upper echelons of New York.
And it's no secret.
Most likely, because of this, it was previously at the banquet of the Hilton family.
Those capital hyenas who have expressed their willingness to work with Smith Capital.
It's been so many days, and I haven't come to the door.
"Little Mellon? Well, okay. He was indeed very intelligent and a clever man.
His background and identity are also very suitable for Wall Street. ”
Bloomberg nodded, and said again: "But he shouldn't be clear, who is investigating you, right?" ”
"That's right." Abel said, "Look what you mean, it seems that you know?" ”
It looks like I'm really going to owe this guy a favor this time.
It's CAA shares again, and it's telling yourself this kind of thing in advance.
I don't know what Bloomberg is trying to do with himself.
Abel was a little worried, but only a little.
In this world, if you want to succeed, you can't help but owe favors.
To be able to owe a favor means to be needed.
is needed, so that there is room for bargaining with others.
Let's just say if Abel didn't have what Bloomberg needed.
Would Bloomberg be so good at talking?
That's it.
"It just so happens that I really know, I also heard from a friend." Bloomberg smiled.
"It's the Manhattan Attorney's Office that's investigating you."
"Manhattan Prosecutor's Office.," Abel muttered softly.
In the morning when he was discussing with David Mellon.
There is speculation about who is investigating him and Smith Capital.
Among them are the Securities Regulatory Authority, the State Office of the Comptroller of Currency, the State Bureau of Insurance and Capital Institutions, the New York Attorney's Office, the Manhattan Prosecutor's Office, and even FBl and ClA.
Even the NYPD is possible.
These institutions and organizations have the right to investigate and spy on companies in the financial industry.
The least likely is the IRS, or the Federal Inland Revenue Service.
Paying so many taxes is not for nothing.
Because it is a big taxpayer.
Abel has had dinner with many senior IRS executives and has personal contacts.
If the IRS had launched an investigation, he wouldn't have gotten the word about it.
Now Mr. Bloomberg is saying that the Manhattan Attorney's Office is investigating him.
It's really on the list of Abel vs. David's guesses.
"I remember.," Abel muttered, "the prosecutor for the District of Manhattan, New York, has been in office for more than twenty years?" ”
"That's right." Bloomberg nodded: "Mr. Robert Morgenthau, who took over the job in 1975. In 25 years, he has not moved his position. ”
"Thank you, Michael." Abel said half-sincerely, half-falsely:
"You've done me a great favor this time. No, it's two busy. There's also the CAA thing. ”
"Hahaha~"
Bloomberg laughed, "It's just a simple thing.
I want to be friends with you, Mr. Smith, and I'm happy to do that. ”
"You can just call me Abel, just like I think it's more affectionate to call you Michael." Abel said with a smile.
"Okay. Abel, I also like to be called Michael. ”
The premise is that the status is similar to him, or that he has someone who asks for it.
Look at the ordinary employees of his company, dare to call him Michael?
Suddenly, Abel's words changed: "Michael, I heard that you have quit the Donkey Party and have joined the Elephant Party?" ”
"That's right." Bloomberg glanced appreciatively at Abel.
The founder of Bloomberg felt that this young man was indeed a sharp mind.
In such a short period of time, this aspect was thought of.
"Then it looks like New York will have a new mayor next year." Abel said with a smile.
From Bloomberg's current attitude, he felt that he had discovered where Bloomberg needed himself.
"Hahaha~" Bloomberg laughed again.
This time it's a heartfelt laugh.
He was happy and smiled and said, "It's just a possibility." But if I want to win the election, I can't do it on my own. ”
Abel understood what he meant.
It is no secret that Mr. Bloomberg is running in next year's New York election.
Back a few years ago, when incumbent Mayor Rudy Giuliani ran for the second time.
Bloomberg expressed his ambitions.
At that time he was a member of the Donkey Party and lost the internal election of the Donkey Party.
Otherwise, it would not have been Henry Colorlight who was running with Rudy Giuliani at the time.
It's Michael Bloomberg.
This year, Bloomberg decisively quit the Donkey Party and joined the Elephant Party.
It's almost like announcing to outsiders that he's going to run in next year's New York election.
It's no secret.
So Abel is very clear.
It's just that he is a little puzzled, what can he look up to in Bloomberg's election next year?
Since you will let Bloomberg take the initiative to contact yourself?
Political dedication J?
This guy doesn't lack this, right?
It's the year 2000, and the funds needed for various campaigns have not been exaggerated to the extent that they will be in the future.
Lao Mei's campaign funds are out of control, and they have swelled to a very exaggerated extent, until the era of Oba donkey.
Abel was a little puzzled, he could only smile and say, "Please don't worry."
I will definitely support you when the time comes.
When the time comes, I'll be sure to write a check for your campaign office that is the biggest check the rules allow. ”
"Of course. If you need it. ”
"I will definitely help as much as I can."
He said with a smile.
