Happy Tycoon
Chapter 511: Make friends
Only close to this building can Yang Jing feel a kind of quaint taste from it.
This is the smell of time. It is rare now. Even in some ancient cities in China, it is rare to see such buildings as close to a hundred years old.
This building is a typical Georgian-style building. This architectural style was derived from the Italian Renaissance style after it was introduced to the UK in 1700, and it adheres to the classicism of symmetry and harmony. Popular in the country for a long time.
This architectural style is the most influential style in the United States. Many ancient manors and villas in the United States are deeply influenced by this style. After all, most of the earliest Americans came from Great Britain on the other side of the Atlantic.
Obviously, when Andrew Mellon built this building, he was also deeply influenced by this architectural style.
The Georgian style is most concerned about the "facade", whether it is the front entrance or the porch, it has a low-key luxury.
At the gate stood a white couple. The man was tall and a little obese, and the woman was a little thin, but with excellent temperament.
"This is the Skefs." Bloomberg walked up enthusiastically after he whispered in Yang Jing's ear.
"Hey, Michael, thank you very much for being able to participate in today's reception." When Skeff met Bloomberg, he greeted him very happily.
After the two exchanged a few words, Bloomberg introduced with a smile: "Richard, introduce you a friend, this is Mr. Cole Smith, the owner of the KY investment fund. Cole, this is the truth. Mr. Chad Mellon Skeff, this is his wife, Ms. Elizabeth Skeff, who is always young and beautiful."
Hearing Bloomberg's introduction, Skeff's eyes suddenly lit up, and he reached out to hold Yang Jing's hand and shook it vigorously a few times and said, "Cole, don't you care if I call you that way?"
Yang Jing smiled and shook his head, "How come? My friends call me that."
"Well, you can also call me Richard like Michael, and my friends call me the same. It's a pleasure to meet you, Cole. I heard Michael mention you a long time ago. It's my honor to finally meet you today. "
Yang Jing smiled modestly, "Richard, you are too modest."
For Yang Jing, Skeff is really not a guest. In the stock market crash that broke out more than ten days ago, the Mellon family also lost a lot. If it weren't for the KY investment fund that turned out to have a huge amount of money to buy back stocks. , And driving the market to stabilize and rebound, the Mellon family's loss may be even greater.
Moreover, KY Investment Fund is now the largest investment institution of Alcoa and Pittsburgh Steel. The KY Investment Fund’s participation in these two Mellon family-controlled companies has played a vital role in the stability of corporate stock prices.
In particular, this KY investment fund knows how to advance and retreat, and it is very accurate. Just like Alcoa shares, this investment fund can obviously buy back more Alcoa shares in that stock market crash, but they bought it. About 6.5% of the shares ceased trading. These shares have little effect on the Mellon family’s control of Alcoa, but the impact on ordinary shareholders and other investors can be greater.
Such an investment fund with strong capital has entered into Alcoa with fanfare, which has a leading role for ordinary shareholders and other investors to regain confidence in Alcoa.
Although the KY investment fund started acquiring shares when Alcoa's valuation fell by more than 41%, which made their acquisition costs very low, Skeff didn't mind them doing this.
After all, KY Investment Fund is a private investment and profit organization. Why do people want to buy your stock if it is not profitable?
Compared with the pulling effect of KY investment funds on Alcoa's valuation, their low-price purchases of Alcoa stocks are nothing at all. If it weren't for them, Alcoa, which has a market value of close to 20 billion U.S. dollars, suddenly plunged 41%, which would really cost the Mellon family a huge loss.
It is no exaggeration to say that because of the emergence of the KY investment fund, those big consortia like the Mellon consortium have to accept a kindness from this fund, especially the old men of the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family. in this way.
If it were not for this KY investment fund, let alone the Mellon family, the Morgan and Rockefeller families would have suffered even greater losses!
It's just that this KY investment fund that turned out to be really mysterious, whether it is the huge amount of rescue funds that can be called a huge amount of money, or the origin of this investment fund, it is very mysterious.
The most important thing is that this investment fund rarely goes to the accounts of the big banks in the United States. Most of their funding sources come from banks in Switzerland, so whether it is the Mellon family, the Morgan family, or the Rockefeller family, Can't figure out the specific information of this fund. I just know that the investment fund that suddenly appeared has huge liquidity in several major U.S. banks.
Among other things, just the stocks of the 27 companies controlled by this fund now have an extremely terrifying market value.
Therefore, whether it is the Mellon family or several other major consortia, they are extremely interested in this investment fund that is now sufficient to influence the form of Wall Street.
As a result, I didn't expect that the owner of this mysterious fund would actually appear here.
It's also to blame that Bloomberg didn't explain to Skeff who the invitation was for when he asked for the invitation. This guy just said he wanted to give Skeff a surprise. Sure enough, this surprise was not small!
Skeff also really wanted to make friends with this mysterious man with amazing wealth.
People with their wealth status know best how much influence a huge amount of wealth can bring. Although Skef had never heard of this Cole Smith before, he would definitely put this tycoon-level figure with huge wealth on the same level as himself, or even higher.
There is no way, Skeff, who came from a large family, knows very well that in a social system where capital is king, whoever controls more capital is more powerful. Even if this Cole Smith was unknown before, but Skeff is also very clear that now in terms of this Cole Smith’s terrifying wealth, if he wants to, he will immediately be among the small group of people at the top of the United States. one.
It can even be said that it is no exaggeration that even the President of the United States can ignore this level of tycoon. It's like the big men in the Mellon family.
Not only the Mellon family, but the Rockefeller, Morgan, and DuPont families, which of them will really put the president in their eyes?
Being able to make friends with such a tycoon with huge wealth is absolutely good for the Mellon family, but no harm.
Therefore, the Skews were so enthusiastic about Yang Jing that they even ignored some of the other guests. Among them, after the US Treasury Secretary James Baker came here, the Skeffs did not respond to him, but let the other family member in charge of reception to receive these guests.
Regarding the ignorance of the Skeffs, James Baker, the U.S. Treasury Secretary, is also helpless. Although he is the U.S. Treasury Secretary and nominally controls the wealth of the entire United States, he is very clear, let alone him, even if it is. BOSS Reagan is here, and it's not a big deal in front of this kind of deep-rooted family.
Not to mention that the tall Skeff in front of him is still recognized as a "right-wing king" in American politics. This guy has even greater influence in American politics than the president, and he is far from being able to provoke him. .
James Baker is not qualified to move forward, but it does not mean that others are not qualified to move forward.
Today is the commemorative reception for the 130th anniversary of Richard Beatty Mellon’s birth. Therefore, many of the most rare and important figures have appeared here. Among them, the representatives of the ten largest consortia in the United States have all come.
These representatives are the banner figures of their respective families or consortiums. Otherwise, they would not be invited by Mr. Richard King Mellon. The two major figures of the Mellon family are all present today. The reception is coming, and those big families and consortiums will inevitably send corresponding figures to attend today’s reception.
Being in this vanity fair, you must abide by the various rules in this vanity fair.
But when these big people came to this ancient manor, they found that one of today’s protagonists and one of the current core figures of the Mellon family, Skeff, was standing at the door with a The unfamiliar men talked so happily that even the Secretary of Finance Baker and the bosses of several other companies did not even bother to entertain him.
Who is this mysterious man? How can you make Skeff look so high?
You know, as a well-known "right-wing king" in American politics, Skeff is poking a behemoth like the Mellon family behind him. His vision is quite high. For him, a person with a personal net worth of less than one billion U.S. dollars, That's just an ordinary person.
But what the **** is this scene in front of me?
Driven by curiosity, the big men rushed forward. In terms of their status and status, they are fully qualified to be on an equal footing with Skeff, and there are even a few people who need to be the real big people that Skeff looks up to.
For example, Harry Morgan, the son of Henry Morgan, who founded Morgan Stanley, such as Lawrence Rockefeller, the third-generation banner figure of the Rockefeller family, known as the "father of venture capital" on Wall Street, such as the banner of the DuPont family Sexual figures Chris DuPont, such as Michael Reid, the current chairman of Citibank...
These people randomly brought out a big person who could sit on an equal footing with Skeff and even needed Skeff to look up. They leaned forward, and Skag could only greet him with a smile.
Then, when these big people learned that this mysterious man turned out to be the boss of KY Investment Fund, there were a few more famous big people in front of the gate of this ancient building...
PS: I would like to bow to thank you for the reward of "Yi Mi Mi Yu Ren Ping Sheng 1989" 100.
