Chapter 533: The Butterfly Effect Brought by Abel
In the eyes of many people in the world, the United States is a "paradise", and New York is a "paradise" in the United States.
Whether Los Angeles people admit it or not, New York is the largest metropolis in the United States, which symbolizes the face of the United States to a certain extent.
In the eyes of many people, New York is like a place full of lights, with high-rise buildings and bustling streets, and the streets of New York are similar to New York, many of which are world-famous.
The most famous is of course Wall Street.
A street represents an industry and even the United States as a country.
This is a very rare or even unique thing in the history of the world.
Among the many streets in New York, Madison Avenue is also a very famous street.
The Madison Garden Plaza Arena, which is regarded as a sacred place by many basketball fans around the world, is on this street.
"Madison Avenue" written by the famous American writer Martin Meyer is a book written by many outstanding figures in the advertising industry, which is favored by many advertising people and is almost a textbook thing.
Madison Avenue has thus become a representative of "advertising", it is home to many large and well-known advertising agencies in the United States, it is called "advertising street".
Like Wall Street's Financial Street and Fifth Avenue's Luxury Street, they are all very representative.
Of course, just as there are shops and other companies on Wall Street, there are also companies outside of advertising on Madison Avenue.
Wells Fargo, the largest bank in New York, is the main stronghold of Wells Fargo on the East Coast, just on Madison Avenue.
180 Madison Ave., James Building.
Kayla walked out of the conference room with a big smile on her face and walked towards her office, she looked at her watch, and at 5:30 p.m., it was the end of the last meeting of the day.
Walking into her office, the smile on Kayla's face slowly dissipated, walked to the back of the desk, kicked off the high heels on her feet, and sat on the boss's chair with a trace of tiredness on her face, the back of her head resting on the back of the chair, a little lazy stretching her delicate body and the slender big white moon.
After all, it was because of yesterday's sleep time, which caused a little tiredness, although staying up late did not hurt her beauty, she can also be full of energy in front of her subordinates, and women want to achieve something in their careers, so they naturally need to work harder and fight.
And Kayla knows why she is fighting, because of her own insecurity and distrust, she hopes to attract her father's attention and attention through her own efforts and hard work, and get the part that belongs to her, sometimes she herself feels blindly running, but she can't see the ribbon that represents victory at the end, and there is no happiness of crossing the line at all.
It wasn't until she met Abel, what she had been chasing, that there was finally a glimmer of light.
When she realized that her father's hesitation was still loose.
Kayla Wilson, the California princess who is very famous in California's upper circles, resolutely did not hesitate to do something that made many West Coasters angry and angry, and shocked.
She hooked up with Dixie from Texas.
At the beginning, she took the initiative to get closer to Abel, and was even willing to be Abel's lover. Woman.
The main thing is to avoid becoming a marriage machine and losing the right to inherit the family wealth.
Because in that circle in California, in order to prevent the wealth of the Wilson family from falling into the hands of others, no matter who she marries, as long as it is someone in the circle of the California consortium.
Her father and brother will definitely keep her away from the core interests of the Wilson family.
When it comes to male and female inheritance, Americans are more traditional than Europeans. Unless there are really no male heirs, it is difficult for even the best female heirs to get too many inheritance rights.
But she hooked up with Abel, and the situation was different if she didn't get married.
If you don't get married, you won't have the problem of legal inheritance. She can be Wilson until she dies, and she can also get help from Abel, who is very interested in joining forces with the California consortium.
And now it is the honeymoon period between the Texas consortium led by Abel and the California consortium.
Abel's ideas and voices are valued by many people on the California consortium's side.
Kayla's approach made her father hesitate.
Even if there is hesitation in this, a large part of the reason is because of the "benefits" brought to her by her brother's inability to have children.
If John Wilson had been fertile, she might have been out long ago.
Now, far from California, she continues to fight for her future.
But as the contact with Abel deepened, Kayla gradually found that it seemed that this life was also very good now.
She's busy every day, but she's in power, and Wells Fargo can get involved in running the East Coast business.
In addition to being busy, you can also live a happy and shameless couple life with Abel to fill the spiritual and physical emptiness.
After a few months in New York, Kayla felt that it was the happiest period of her life.
Thinking of her boyfriend, although some gloom lingers in Kayla's heart - Farshet and Smith are super flowery carrots!
But she knew very well that she had to be patient. This man is too legendary, and he appeared too late, so he must be patient enough.
Open her beautiful eyes, her eyes are shining, she gets up from the boss's chair, walks into the bathroom barefoot and touches up her makeup, so that she looks less tired, as a professional strong woman with strong ambitions in her career, Kayla has always avoided bringing her temper and temperament home, and tried her best to prevent the problem of work and life from being solved in the same way.
After all, her strength at work will help her work and career.
But if you are strong in life, whether it is at home in California or now at home in New York, it is really not an appropriate approach.
The two men in the two families, the father and the boyfriend, they are stronger than her in all aspects.
In these two families, she can't be strong even if she wants to......
So, when she packed up and walked out of the office, Kayla immediately entered home mode after work, eating and bathing with her boyfriend......
Of course, for animals like Abel, bathing together is undoubtedly the favorite mode of relaxation.
In doing so, you can also achieve two of these three tasks......
In the evening, in the living room. Kayla, whose complexion became more and more ruddy, her fair and pretty face had completely turned into a puff, with a thick charm between her eyebrows, she was wearing a white silk sundress and lying on the sofa with her whole body sour, looking at a few pieces of paper without blinking a finger.
And Abel smiled with a happy and comfortable satisfied face, holding Kayla's slender big white moon and caressing it.
The Ansa are hairy, and the Germans of the same blood are similar. On the European side, the closer the group is to the Mediterranean, the less body hair there is.
The Wilson family in California seems to have a strong southern European ancestry, belonging to a group of European descendants with relatively little Mao. Strictly speaking, it doesn't fit the characteristics of the group, so the California consortium is vaguely ostracized by other old consortiums.
However, this makes Kayla in the area of body hair more in line with Abel's aesthetics.
Well, modern technology has a modern way of coping.
High-tech, not to mention body hair, as long as you have money, pores can help you cover them.
Kayla, a girl with a certain amount of talent and quality, and not bad for money, is naturally slippery.
"My dear, everyone else says that you just have no opponent in finance. But by me, your business sense is sharper than anyone else's! Let's just say that you started buying luxury homes all over the United States two years ago, and not many people can compare. Looking at these villas on Long Island, most of them have appreciated by 50%~80%, oh my God, it's only been two years! ”
Kayla said with emotion as she looked at the two sheets of manuscript paper full of names written on them that Mariabel had handed her earlier, and an A4 piece of paper with a large number of high-end luxury property addresses written on them.
One of the things she was looking at was an invitation list for a banquet that Abel was planning to host when he returned to New York.
The piece of paper with the address written on it is the location of the banquet.
Abel gave her the review list and the control of the banquet.
Kayla is very happy with this, and she feels that this is an important milestone on her way to "seizing power".
Look, aren't these things that should have been done by the hostess now doing them themselves?
"As far as I know, Wells Fargo has been very cautious about real estate in the past two years. When I looked at the information, I didn't have a lot of real estate mortgages and subprime mortgages. Abel said with a smile as he "massaged" her.
With the release of water from the George House, U.S. real estate rose two years ago.
It has been rising for the past two years and will continue to rise in the future.
This trend is something that many of Wall Street's giants smell it.
All kinds of real estate-related bonds, mainly represented by subprime mortgages, have poured out frantically and have become the main source of profits for many investment banks and even commercial banks in the past two years.
The craziest of them all is Lehman Brothers.
Since last year, Lehman Brothers has been the second most profitable investment bank on Wall Street.
And it's because they're focused on this field, and this field gives them amazing profits.
Subprime refers to subprime mortgages, which are a high-risk, high-yield area of finance.
Specifically, it refers to the loans provided by some lending institutions to borrowers with poor credit and low income.
The difference from the traditional standard mortgage is that the subprime mortgage does not require much of the borrower's credit history and repayment ability, and the loan interest rate is correspondingly much higher than that of a general mortgage.
Those who have been denied a quality mortgage by a bank because of a bad credit history or weak repayment ability apply for a subprime mortgage to buy a home.
So you understand the source of that horrific subprime mortgage crisis a few years later, right?
For the sake of high interest rates, these banks lend money to people with poor repayment ability and bad credit.
When the overall economy is rising, it is fine, but when the economy is unstable, it is strange that such a person can get the money to repay!
They couldn't come up with the money to repay the loans, and the banking crisis was coming, which is why the subprime mortgage crisis was formed.
In parallel time and space, the reason why Lehman Brothers had to die was because they had released too many subprime mortgages and related bonds, amounting to $613 billion......
A company with such high debts, who can save it?
Probably only the state, and it must also be a strong and rich country.
So when even the federal government gave up on it, bankruptcy was already a foregone conclusion.
Because he knows that there will be such a big crisis in the future, Abel has been paying attention to this field in recent years.
He is worried that because of himself, there has been a butterfly effect, which has caused the crisis to be advanced or delayed.
At present, Abel feels that this crisis will most likely be advanced.
The reason lies in those four words - the butterfly effect.
The appearance of Abel, as well as his plundering on Wall Street in the first two years, made the investment banks and financial companies on Wall Street miserable, and the profit statements of those two years were very unsightly.
To make up for the poor financial performance, the lucrative subprime mortgages, which only appeared in 1999, became the magic weapon of these Wall Street giants.
In this time and space, not only Lehman Brothers, but also more Wall Street investment banks are making money on subprime mortgages.
Although Abel does not have access to the corresponding data on subprime mortgages on Wall Street during this period in parallel time and space.
But a very simple truth, in this time and space, after the United States passed the Financial Services Modernization Act in 1999 and repealed the Banking Act of 1933, subprime mortgages appeared immediately.
Subprime mortgages were less than $50 billion that year, compared to $95 billion in 2000, and the growth of these two figures seems relatively normal.
Then last year, in 2001, that figure became $300 billion, more than tripling in a year.
This year is not over yet, but in the first two quarters, the scale of subprime mortgages in the United States has exceeded $600 billion.
No matter how you look at this data, Abel suspects that the subprime mortgage crisis caused by the real estate crisis in parallel time and space may appear in advance because of his own reasons.
There's really no way around it. Since 1999, the United States passed the Financial Services Modernization Act and repealed the Banking Act of 1933.
There is also the adoption of the Commodity Futures Modernization Act in 2000.
The consequences of the passage of these two laws will inevitably lead to the unrestricted and abnormal expansion of US financial capital, and the irreversible transformation of the national economy from real to virtual.
Capitalism is prone to economic crises, and with the financial buff that shifts from real to virtual, crises are inevitable.
"Hey...... Hey, dear. Am I talking to you? Are you wandering? What do you think? ”
Kayla's crisp voice pulled the thoughtful Abel back to reality.
"You just asked Wells Fargo about the subprime mortgage, and I said it, but you didn't respond. What are you thinking? I'm so distracted in front of you! ”
Her charming little face was a little dissatisfied, and her beautiful eyes glared at Abel.
Abel smiled, thinking that even if the financial crisis came early, it would not be a problem for him, but a greater opportunity.
Wouldn't it be better to let it appear early?
It's just that from now on, you have to prepare.
Instead of starting to prepare after two or three years, as I planned.
Thinking of this, he let go of Kayla's slender big white moon retreat, and directly hugged her whole person and put it on himself.
"Don't talk about that, have you chosen the address for the banquet party? I think it's just Nagashim. It's summer, and it's even more beautiful over there. ”
Crisis, crisis, the greater the danger, the greater the opportunity.
In that case, let's make the storm more intense.
