I Can Zoom In And Zoom Out

"What did they ask you for?" Jiang Xiaobai asked in a deep voice.

"It's nothing, just hope we don't mine diamonds too much," Jonathan said, "so that the supply exceeds demand and the diamond market collapses."

"Just a few words?" Jiang Xiaobai asked suspiciously.

But when it comes to diamonds, De Beers must be a topic that cannot be avoided.

This group, which made its fortune by relying on diamonds, almost monopolized more than half of the world's diamond transactions at its peak, and controlled nineteen diamond mines in its hands, and cooperated with other countries with diamond mines!

It can be said that the global diamond market is basically determined by De Beers!

However, with the discovery of the diamond mine in the small town of Cerro Gordo, its huge reserves are bound to have a severe impact on De Beers' diamond monopoly, which in turn will impact the entire diamond market!

Therefore, De Beers approached Jiang Xiaobai, something that Jiang Xiaobai had foreseen a long time ago!

But the question is, what kind of attitude will they appear in? Is it a threat or a lure? Do they want to buy it at a sky-high price or cooperate with each other?

In fact, as far as Jiang Xiaobai's attitude is concerned, he really hopes that De Beers can buy this diamond mine!

In this way, I can have at least hundreds of billions of RMB in my hands, which is enough to upgrade my skills to two levels!

However, this is basically unlikely!

After all, no matter how rich De Beers is, it is unlikely that it will be able to come up with hundreds of billions of dollars in cash!

What's more, with the global financial crisis in the past two years, life in Europe and the United States has been difficult. The money of major banks has also been tightened, and some foreign banks are even facing the crisis of bankruptcy!

"Of course it's not just a few words," Jonathan said with a smile, "They chattered a lot and promised a lot of benefits, but the central meaning is this one sentence

As soon as he heard Jonathan's words, Jiang Xiaobai knew that this guy was trying to trick him, so he couldn't help saying angrily: "Stop trying to trick me, what kind of benefits did the other party promise to give?"

"Two members of Congress." Jonathan said, his tone full of excitement, "In the election for members of Congress next year, they will help us win two members of Congress!"

Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help wondering: "What? Do you and your elder brother want to be in politics?"

"How come!" Jonathan couldn't help laughing, "Of course my elder brother and I won't! In fact, all the direct descendants of the plutocratic families will not enter the Congress, we prefer to be behind the scenes!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai understood that these two spots are probably reserved for the politicians they cultivated!

Tsk tsk tsk! As expected of a wealthy family, this kind of behind-the-scenes trick is really good!

In fact, as a family of chaebols, being able to control everything behind the scenes is the ultimate goal they want to do!

Just like the Rothschild family back then!

This is the nature of dark capitalist society!

"Is there anything else?" Jiang Xiaobai said, "Isn't it just two quotas that make you give up mining diamond mines?"

"Hey! In fact, it's not about giving up mining completely, but the annual mining volume must be controlled!" Jonathan said with a smile, "But in order to make up for our losses, "De Beers also promised to give us some shares in the company!"

Hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but smile.

I knew it would be good for sure!

"What companies are there?" Jiang Xiaobai asked immediately.

"There are General Electric Company, Telephone and Telegraph Company..." Jonathan listed a large list of companies, basically all of which were traditional industries, which made Jiang Xiaobai not interested at all!

"Also," when it came to the end, Jonathan paused and said with a smile, "the shares of Apple and Marvel!"

When the other party said the names of the last two companies, Jiang Xiaobai's eyes lit up: "How many?"

Jonathan said: "Apple has five percent, and Marvel has ten percent!"

?!!

so much!

Jiang Xiaobai opened his eyes!

If I can get the 5% of Apple's shares, plus the 3% I have now, it will be 8%!

If calculated according to Apple's highest market value of more than one trillion yuan in later generations, this 8% is equivalent to 80 billion US dollars!

And taking the 10% of Marvel, plus the 30% I have on hand, then I have 40% of Marvel shares in my hands, which will exceed the 38% shares held by the current president of Marvel in one fell swoop, and become the largest shareholder!

According to Marvel's valuation of hundreds of billions of dollars in the future, I will have tens of billions of dollars more on hand!

Of course, money is not the most important thing!

...asking for flowers......

Most importantly, with the rise of these two companies, he who holds two shares is bound to become the darling of the world's top social circles!

If Jiang Xiaobai had a choice between a diamond mine and shares in Apple or Marvel, he would naturally choose the latter without hesitation!

After all, he can produce diamond mines at any time, but the shares of these two companies may not be guaranteed!

Especially in the future, when these two companies are getting better and better, it will be even more difficult to get their shares!

Therefore, the two pieces of news brought by Jonathan are really a surprise!

"What's your opinion?" Jiang Xiaobai asked.

In fact, when Jonathan told him these things, Jiang Xiaobai knew that the other party must want to agree!

After all, judging from the financial strength shown by the Bolton family, they are really not short of money.

The reason why they desire diamond mines is firstly to make long-term and stable money, but more importantly, to be able to enter the Diamond Alliance and take this line!

Facts have proved that the Diamond Alliance headed by De Beers has far more influence in the political arena of the United States than the Bolton family!

After all, the Bolton family dare not guarantee that they will win the lists of two members of Congress!

"Jiang, I discussed with my father and brother, and decided to agree to De Beers' conditions." Speaking of business, Jonathan also resumed his low voice, and said, "We calculated that the company shares provided by De Beers as compensation should be able to make up for the losses caused by limited mining!"

"As for the shares in these companies, our Bolton family will not keep any of them, but give them all to you," Jonathan said, "We only need the seats of the two congressmen!"

"what do you think?"

For Jonathan, the biggest problem now is Jiang Xiaobai's attitude.

As the real owner of this diamond mine, if Jiang Xiaobai does not agree to De Beers' conditions, then even if they agree, it will be useless!

However, according to his understanding of Jiang Xiaobai, Jonathan is more than 90% sure that he will agree!

Because, Jonathan found out, Jiang Xiaobai is more optimistic about Apple or Marvel than diamond mines!

"Okay! I promise!"

Sure enough, Jiang Xiaobai gave Jonathan's expected answer nine!.
