Chapter 430: An Invitation from the East Coast Giants

Amanda looked unhappy and left her office indignantly.

Abel didn't have the slightest wave in his heart.

He knew long before he decided to eat the thorny rose that she wasn't as easy to handle as Ikana and Paris.

But so what?

It's just a little more challenging.

The current Abel is not afraid of these extra challenges.

The process of taming the rouge horse made him feel more interesting.

Turn back to your seat.

Abel continued his boring life as a chairman.

This dull calm was shattered in the afternoon

Peggy Morgenso, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, came over.

Today's Peggy, as always, is wearing her prosecutor OL dress, which sets off her slender figure and sets off the perfect female curves.

Clear and bright pupils, curved willow eyebrows, long eyelashes trembling slightly, fair and flawless skin revealing a faint red pink, thin lips like roses. Petal. Tender. Tender. Desire. Drip.

Judging only by appearance and figure.

Abel thinks Peggy is much more beautiful than little Laura and Amanda, who are from the same class.

and the thick, intellectual book temperament on her body, which is also what little Laura lacks.

"Good afternoon, Peggy. Long time no see. ”

"Good afternoon......

The blonde and elegant Western beauty calmly took out a beautiful invitation, "I'm here to deliver this thing." ”

Abel nodded, and didn't let David or Allen, who were waiting next to him, pick it up.

The two of them, who were here just now, were discussing something with Abel.

Abel himself walked over, walked up to Peggy, and took the initiative to take the invitation in her slender white hand.

Standing beside her, Abel smelled the faint smell of perfume on her body.

It's the smell of Gucci Bloom.

Abel is not a perfume master, nor is he a scumbag who deliberately remembers all kinds of different perfume flavors for the sake of picking up girls.

The reason why I can smell this Gucci Bloom at once.

It's because Abel remembers that his fiancΓ©e, Laura Bush, likes to use this perfume the most.

According to little Laura, that's-

"This GUCCI fragrance is a good reproduction of the scene of prosperity and bloom in the garden of the white house when I was a child, when my grandfather was the commander."

"The top notes are jasmine and tuberose, and it's very pronounced, and at first you smell like a flower blooming in front of you. In the strong aroma of jasmine, you can also vaguely smell the fragrance of honeysuckle, gardenia and other white flowers, just like a girl in a hundred flowers. ”

Being able to remember it so clearly is purely because Abel's current memory is extraordinary.

It's the same as his body, which doesn't need to be exercised, and can be at the peak of human beings.

Like his financial talent, it is Abel's benefit through time and space.

In front of Peggy, Able opens the beautiful classical invitation.

He glanced at it and saw that it was Robert Morgenthau, who had invited him to a banquet at Morgenthau Manor tonight.

Tonight is Robert's 82nd birthday, and he has invited many people to attend.

"Oh, that's a good thing, it's a big day. I will definitely participate, please rest assured. Abel said with a smile.

Peggy nodded calmly and said in a flat voice:

"My grandfather asked me to send it over. He also asked me to tell you that Mahogon and Rockphil will be there when the time comes. ”

Abel understood why Robert would hand over such a trivial matter as sending a letter to his most precious granddaughter.

Robert was telling himself through Peggy to be aware of Rockphile and Morgun, or some other guy who was interested in him at this banquet tonight.

"Thank you, Peggy."

Abel said softly.

"Hmm."

Peggy's bright sapphire eyes gave him a calm look, "Then I'm leaving." ”

Abel: "Hmm...... Good. ”

Abel finished.

Without hesitation, Peggy turned around and walked towards the office door.

A few seconds later, her slender figure disappeared into Abel's spacious and luxurious office.

David and Allen next to them didn't move, they didn't dare to make a sound, and they even tried to lower their breathing.

Because from the time Peggy turned around to the time she left, their boss just stood where he was, staring in her direction.

Even though she had disappeared outside the door, she did not change her movements in the slightest.

About a dozen seconds passed.

The two of Abel's closest subordinates saw the boss turn to them again.

"Alright. A little episode, now let's revisit the acquisition of the New York Giants and the New York Yankees. ”

The New York Giants are one of the NFL's veteran teams in the NFL, or the National Football Business League.

The New York Yankees are one of the baseball teams in Major League Baseball. The home stadium is located in the Browns borough of New York.

Just before Peggy came over to deliver the invitation.

Abel discussed with Alan Baker and David Jones about the acquisition of two commercial sports companies in New York.

Under Abel's name, there has always been an inconspicuous company called Smith Sports.

It was independent at first.

Later, after the establishment of Smith Media, it became part of the Media Group.

This company is also the parent company of the NBA team Houston Rockets.

At the same time, it also holds shares in some European teams, namely the five European teams that Abel bought.

There is also a share of F1 Holdings.

In fact, even Smith Capital, Abel's personal shareholding is only about 30%.

The rest of the shares, all of them, are controlled by some offshore companies, except for the others.

Of course, after several layers of skinning, these offshore companies are actually all Abel's sole proprietorships.

The reason for this is mainly for tax avoidance and cross-shareholding, which increases security.

The core shares of those large companies and conglomerates are basically operated in this way.

In line with the principle of continuing to expand its influence in New York.

Abel intends to buy the NFL and MLB, two of the most influential teams in New York with a large number of fans.

At this time, it was naturally the turn of Smith Sports.

Smith Sports has a headquarters of only a few dozen people in the United States, and even the general manager is concurrently served by David Jones.

After all, this company was purely a whim of Abel at the beginning, and it was a company in the nature of playing tickets.

He remembered, put some money in, and spend some energy to play with that.

If you are not serious enough, you will naturally not be sound.

Even the desire to buy the New York Yankees and the New York Giants this time is mainly for other purposes.

Business Sports ...... Although this piece of meat is fat, in Abel's eyes, it is too thin.

If it weren't for the fact that this industry often accompanies a huge influence on ordinary people.

Abel probably didn't have the slightest interest in them.

Seeing the boss recover from that state, Alan and David didn't dare to mention Peggy at all.

Alan immediately said:

"As we said, it's a bit difficult to buy the New York Yankees, but the Giants are not so difficult as long as the price is right."

"For the rest of the time, the Giants have been owned by the Mara family."

"It wasn't until 1991 that Preston Robert Tisch bought a 50% stake in the Giants, and then increased his holdings one after another, and the owners of the Giants became the Tisage family."

"But Wellington Mara, the founder of the Giants, Tim Mara's son, is still one of the team's chairmen and presidents, and he has played a very important role in the operation of the Giants."

Listened to these words of the chief advisor and general manager of the Smith Intelligence Group.

Abel nodded and said, "The key is the Tisage family and this Wellington, right?" ”

David nodded, and the butler of the Smith family said softly:

"According to you, boss, I have already been in contact with the Tischi family. Because the Tisage family has made many mistakes in investment before, the cash chain of their family's core industry is very tight. When I spoke to them, they said they would be happy to sell their 67% stake as long as the price was right. ”

Abel stretched out his hand and pointed at David, "Give them the money, I want their stock." ”

David nodded, knowing that for the boss, what can be solved with money is always the easiest thing.

Allen added:

"Wellington Mara is also a problem. When it came time to sell 50 percent of the shares to the Tiskies, Wellington left a clause. This clause states that as long as Wellington is alive, he will remain the chairman of the Giants. At the same time, it has a veto power on the team's stock transactions. ”

"It's easy."

Abel whispered:

"This Wellington, since he is the son of the founder of the team. Presumably he also wants the team to develop better. Then I think, it is difficult for him to refuse a boss who can give him unlimited financial support and allow him to poach people at will. ”

"Alan, go tell him. I'll give him money to buy all the MLB superstars. ”

Alan nodded.

"Alright."

"Now tell me, why is it so hard to buy the New York Yankees?"

Faced with the question of the boss, David and Alan glanced at each other.

Finally, David spoke.

"The owner of the Yankees, George Steinbreiner, rejected our offer. This guy claims that because the owner you are a Texan, Yankees fans won't like a Dixie as the owner of the team......"

"Falk the Shet!!"

This is a somewhat nonsensical reason, so Abel can't help but get dirty.

Dixie can't be the boss of the Yankees, what bullshit justification?

"Fack! I remember this guy, it seems to be from Ohio? I've seen him at a banquet in New York. I remember that he was an immigrant of German origin, who only came in the Gilded Age, and who had any right to despise Texas? ”

Look at the boss is a little angry.

David hurriedly added: "BOSS, this is just a reason to refuse. The real reason may be related to the good relationship between George Steinbriner and the Newhouse family. ”

"Newhouse?"

Abel frowned, he had a conflict with Newhouse.

But not long ago, Neuhouse's Shiyi Niuhaus had taken the initiative to find him and wanted to shake hands with him.

At that time, in the spirit of Hongzu's famous words, Abel also agreed with Shiyi Newhouse's intention.

"Contact George Steinbriner again, and if you still refuse, I'll call Smith Newhouse."

Abel said directly.

David and Alan both nodded.

After the acquisition of two local New York commercial sports companies was discussed, David and Allen were about to leave.

Both of them are busy people, more than the CEO of Smith Media and the CEO of Smith Capital.

They were about to go out when they heard Abel call them to stop them.

"By the way, David and Alan, arrange it. In the middle of the month, we went on a trip to Europe. ”

David and Alan were stunned, but both immediately nodded in agreement.

Watching the two leave, Able stood up from the spacious, soft sofa in the lounge area and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling windows on Broadway.

Broadway Avenue is an important north-south road in Manhattan, starting from Battery Park in the south and running through Manhattan Island from south to north.

With a number of theaters on both sides of the road, it is an important place for American theater and musicals.

As the national power of the United States grows, and its influence expands.

Gradually, "Broadway" has become synonymous with musicals.

It is one of the most spacious and luxurious roads in Manhattan.

After all, the original English meaning of Broadway was originally the meaning of "wide avenue".

Thinking about the way Peggy sent a letter to herself just now, and how she felt at the time.

Look out at the traffic on Broadway below.

Abel put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a cell phone from it.

Phone 1, his personal phone.

He dialed his fiancΓ©e.

"Hey~"

"Honey, let's go to Long Island in the evening."

"Attend Robert Morgenthau's birthday party. This old guy is a big partner of mine in New York. ”

"That's it, I'll have someone pick you up later."

……

……

The Morgenthau family's estate, surrounded by woods in a dense forest on Long Island.

The main body of the center is a very historical, white stone castle building.

When I don't look at the electric light next to it, and the modern decoration outside.

At first glance, they even give the impression of medieval Europe.

It has a miniature Swanstein Castle feel.

When Abel and little Laura arrived.

The large black iron gate outside the manor was wide open, and a team of black-clothed bodyguards stood on both sides, separating the entrances and exits.

Abel looked up and saw the white Latin font on the door of the black mansion: "Dives non est omnia".

This is the ancestral motto of the Morgenthau family, or the family motto or something.

It basically means that "wealth is not everything".

Looking at the Latin, Able continued to whisper to little Laura about his first visit to Morgenthau's ancestral home.

His motorcade also drove in unimpeded and stopped in front of the fountain square of a white classical mansion that resembled an ancient Greek temple.

A brand new red carpet stretches from the door of the mansion to the front of the car.

Abel stepped out of the car, turned around and helped little Laura, who was wearing a long skirt evening dress, to get out of the car, and then stepped on the red carpet and walked up the stairs.

"Welcome, Abel, oh, Miss Laura Bush, you're charming tonight!!"

Robert Morgenthau's eldest son, George Morgenthau, and his wife, Peggy's mother, have already walked out of the gate of the mansion and met Abel on the platform in front of it.

Peggy's father smiled kindly, shook Abel's hand, and praised little Laura's beauty without hesitation.

"Thank you very much Morgenthau for the invitation, George."

Abel said politely.

The three brothers of the Morgenthau family, all of whom are dragons and phoenixes, all of them are very good on the East Coast.

Robert Za is in Manhattan, a place where every inch of land is valuable, and prosecutors have been doing it for decades.

You know, it's Manhattan, it's the site of Wall Street.

If you want to sit firmly in this position, your background, background, and ability are all indispensable!

Robert's two brothers, the younger one even has the hope of becoming supreme. Big. One of the judges.

The other is also the attorney general of a state.

Even if there is a factor of background, the personal ability is also very good.

But the next generation of these three brothers, that is, Peggy's father and cousin's generation, is a bit mediocre.

Like Peggy's father, he never did anything.

Now he has become the newly established Hudson City Group, the head of the legal department, and that is completely due to his old son.

It is more of a title nature.

Even Abel's kindness to him is half due to his father Robert and half because of his daughter Peggy.

It can only be said that in this part of the United States, being able to reincarnate well is a super skill in itself.

"Hehe, it's our pleasure, please ...... inside"

George Morgenthau would love to talk to his future boss and his wife's daughter.

But there are constant guests, and every one of them is a prominent figure in New York or the East Coast, or even in the whole of America.

As the person who welcomed the Morgenthau family here tonight, he could not favor one over the other.

Even if he wanted to continue chatting with Abel, he could only politely signal Abel to go in first.

Abel smiled and took two steps forward, then subconsciously looked back.

He found out that it was very coincidental and the same as last time.

Bloomberg took his wife with him again after himself to the main house of Morgenthau.

The difference is that Abel was single and came alone.

This time, next to him is a beautiful and beautiful fiancΓ©e with an elegant smile.

Seeing Bloomberg waving to him, Able laughed and little Laura slowed down.

Wait for Bloomberg and George Morgenso to be polite.

The old fellow, with his wife, walked a few steps faster and came with Abel and little Laura.

"What a coincidence, Michael. Remember? It was the same last time. ”

"Hahaha - of course I do. That's why I said, this is the Lord who is meeting us! ”

"Let's go, let's go."

Can't be blocked at the door for too long, the four of them chatted a few words, and then walked inside.

Abel and the same charming smile, slightly raised chin, showing elegance, eyes full of fascination looking at him Laura, together with Michael Bloomberg and his wife into the splendid hall of luxury, like day.

With the arrival of the young couple Abel and Little Laura, the atmosphere in the hall became more and more lively, acquaintances, strangers, and a bunch of people took turns to appear in Abel's circle, and everyone greeted each other.
