Future chat group

The relationship between investment banks is undoubtedly mostly competition, but cooperation is also common. For example, in Lepai’s financing project, Forest and KH are in a competitive relationship. They naturally have to fight to the death. When the results come out, it is You can sit down and communicate about other things.

"My name is Joe, the business leader of Ant Energy Group in several states on the northern east coast." Joe is a white man, with the highest status in the middle, and his "business leader" sounds very humble.

"Okla, CEO of KH," the person from KH also extended his hand to Lei Hao who had already stood up, looked at Lei Hao carefully when greeting him, and said with deep meaning: "I hope there will be an opportunity to cooperate with Forest. "

The most famous people in KH are Keller and Hendry, but the CEO is not either of them, but Ocra. This in itself represents something. Even if it is the product of compromise, Ocla is not a simple characters.

At the scene, it seemed that only Hernando was eccentric, but he was able to handle this business. To doubt the other person's IQ was to doubt his own ability.

A series of information and analysis ran through Lei Hao's mind. As of now, he still doesn't know why Lepai has almost finalized the cooperation with KH so quickly. Baker and Rhodes will definitely not tell all the details. The previous ones are just They are about to hit their bottom line as members of Lepai's board of directors.

"Hello." Lei Hao shook hands with Qiao, and said politely to Okla, "Nice to meet you."

"Rhode, we are all our own people, why don't we come together?" Hernando was not so perverse as to interrupt the meeting and communication between Lei Hao and others. He, who had been tit for tat with Rhodes, left a mark here. After almost a minute, when the program was finished, the topic was brought up.

The people here are all wealthy people with at least tens of millions of dollars, and they are talking about a business involving 200 million US dollars. The place they choose to eat will naturally not be downgraded. In fact, even if they stand at their dining place to say hello to each other, they will not stand for a long time. It would be too rude.

Rhodes could accept the other party coming here to show off, but he couldn't accept the option of dining together. He didn't have to think about what would happen during the meal after agreeing.

"Hernando, is this how your family taught you? To extend invitations when others are dining?" Rhodes sneered.

"What a pity. Then I can only see you during the board meeting. Well, I can't even see you at regular meetings." Hernando's smile was bright and sunny.

Hearing these words, Lei Hao didn't need to be reminded to see the origin of the conflict between the two, which was the power struggle within the group.

Within a group like Lepai, there are several teams in terms of management alone, including the board of supervisors, the board of directors, the highest-level shareholders' meeting, and the administrative department managers responsible for daily management. There are many ways to do this.

Baker is a director and is responsible for the management of the pension fund. Rhodes and Hernando may also need to borrow financing projects to get involved in specific management work. In this case, whoever supports the investment bank's entry will have a much greater say.

You know, Forest and KH are investment banks responsible for raising 200 million in funds for new projects. They will exercise certain rights on behalf of these funds, which is not a trivial matter.

From the attitudes of these two people, we can see how great the impact of the matter is.

Lei Hao was also affected. His Forest lost a pioneering development opportunity in investment banking business. If he wanted to find another one, let alone whether there was an opportunity. Even if there were, it would be difficult to meet people like Rhodes and Baker. Such help.

"BOSS." Fox was a little moved. He didn't agree with Forest directly taking over all the business, but it would be great if he just participated.

Seeing that Hernando's attention was completely noticed by Rhodes, Fox couldn't help but anxiously gave a reminder next to Lei Hao.

In private situations, it is easier to discuss many things.

Lei Hao nodded and heard Fox speak immediately: "Mr. Okla..."

"Okla," Okla interrupted Fox, looked at Lei Hao with a smile, and then added the second half of the sentence to Fox: "Brown."

"OK, Mr. Brown..." Fox started to speak, but was interrupted by Okla: "Fox, you can call me Okla."

Fox immediately wanted to flip the table, and he could clearly feel the teasing smiles of the people around him.

American names are divided into first name, middle name and surname. Generally, the middle name is not mentioned. For example, Okla is called Okla Brown. Most people are called Mr. Brown. After getting a little familiar with it, they are called Okla directly.

Lei Hao didn't know what was funny in this at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that Okla's ridicule to Fox had a crushing meaning with political wisdom.

First, I pointed out your rudeness, and then expressed that I don’t mind contacting you, and also vaguely praised Lei Hao. After all, when Okla introduced herself to Lei Hao just now, she directly said her first name instead of her last name to show her kindness. The meaning is obvious.

After living in the United States for such a long time, Lei Hao was actually not used to the names of foreigners. For example, he used to always call him Mr. Baker or Mr. Rhodes, and no one corrected his mistake because... everyone was ready to call him Mr. The suffix has been removed, and I am used to the Chinese people misnaming them.

Therefore, Fox paid for Lei Hao's previous casualness, and this ridicule really threw it in his face.

"Few people know that my name is George Fox." Fox shrugged his shoulders, turned around easily, and blinked slyly: "It's just that everyone is used to calling me Fox."

"Have I been shouting names randomly?" Lei Hao almost couldn't hold back the expression on his face.

But Americans are not used to it. KH's Okla even showed a weird smile that said, "This won't trick you."

"The title is only secondary, Fox. I saw Forest's email. How about we talk in the car back to Manhattan after lunch?" Okla extended the invitation.

Fox didn't dare to make the decision for Lei Hao.

"Actually, Lei, if we eat together, everything will be settled, right?" Hernando looked like he wanted to slap Rhodes in the face, and said with a smile: "If Okla and Joe don't mind, we The celebration time can be tonight, and believe me, we can have a better nightlife back in New York."

Rhodes: "..."

This method of sowing discord is too crude. Why do you, Hernando, care so much about the affairs between investment banks?

Under the premise of failure, Lei Hao will abandon Rhodes and Baker to meet with the winner KH's Okla? Stop being funny, everyone still wants to have some face.
