Lisko’s American Life

Lisko also knew the difficulties Jon encountered. There were solutions to this kind of thing, but he didn't want to choose any of them.

For example, if you give up a profit and hand it over to the local consortium, similar to protection fees, the Ogar Bank can easily enter these places and get more or less protection and escort.

Or take the initiative to seek refuge in a large consortium, these things can be easily resolved.

The advantage of local financial groups is that they are familiar with the relationships here, but in the eyes of large financial groups, these are dispensable things, and Lisko's assets currently lack this kind of relationship network.

Lisko pondered for a long time. In his previous life, he had always bowed his knees to others. In this life, he didn't want to live like this. Even if the development of O'Gal Bank was frustrated, he was unwilling to bow his head to these people.

It was precisely because Jon knew what Lisko meant that he adjusted the bank's overall strategy without hesitation and opened up the situation from another direction.

"It doesn't matter, we will set our sights overseas. When we gain a firm foothold overseas, these people will have nothing to do with us, and going overseas may also be a good time for us to rise."

Lisko has no better way now, but can only comfort Jon, for fear that the other party's enthusiasm will be frustrated and his positive attitude towards work will disappear.

In this case, the gain outweighs the loss.

Jon understood Lisko's thoughts very well. According to his meeting with Chandler, from the perspective of some investment directions, Lisko's purpose is obvious.

He intends to use his assets as the moat of the Li family, so that the family can be passed on and inherited smoothly, and he wants to develop himself into a consortium and complete the closed loop of the industry.

With this kind of thinking, he is certainly not willing to let go of his own interests easily.

"Our bank ranks 20th in the latest U.S. bank rankings, which is already a very good result for us. Because we have just started to develop, and every bank above has decades or even a century The long-term operation of the enterprise has allowed them to have their own customers, which is still beyond our reach."

Jon is still very optimistic about O'Gar Bank. From an existence that couldn't make it to the rankings, after a series of mergers and integrations, he has become the top 20 in the United States. This also makes the middle management of the bank before He has a great sense of accomplishment, so he is even more grateful to Lisko for his kindness.

Maxima also needs to be recognized by Bole. For Jon, if he is not selected by Lisko, he may still be transferred in different financial institutions, and his top can only be the middle level.

Thinking about the receptions he went to now, he would be complimented and praised by a bunch of people, and he felt that this was something he could not have dreamed of before.

"Now our bank has 172 branches in four states. At present, our headquarters are in Florida and Colorado. There are a large number of personal businesses in these two states. The assets have reached 14 billion US dollars. This year's comprehensive average common stock (16.2 %), return on average assets (1.5%), net interest margin (4.7%) and efficiency ratio (42%) are the fastest growing among all banks, and we have absorbed many large The business that banks don’t like has gone through a total of two or two mergers and acquisitions, and the outside world has the impression of us as an opportunistic acquirer.”

Jon's expression is full of complacency, these are the results of his hard work.

"You did a great job. Your bonus is doubled this year to reward you for your efforts."

Lisko is not the kind of stingy person either. To be honest, the development of Ogar Bank has far exceeded his expectations. Before his constitution, this was a five-year plan. I didn’t expect it to be completed in one year by Jon. , although a large part of the reason is due to the continuous financial support, but Jon's efforts in this are also indispensable.

"Sir, it's a bit of a shame."

Jon's expression was a little panicked. For him, maybe those senior people who are in charge of the financial world can do better than him, and he is just because of the opportunity, and Lisko gave himself It is indeed enough, if I still accept it, I will be a little greedy.

As Jon, who has been wandering in the financial world before, his family is quite superior. After all, the income of the financial industry is not low, and the family property is also a proper middle class.

Therefore, he doesn't pay much attention to money. What he pays more attention to is the success in his career, the sense of accomplishment, and the feeling of being recognized.

"Accept it. As the president, if you don't accept this, how will your subordinates deal with themselves? They will also hesitate to accept the reward from the company."

Lisko patted Jon on the shoulder, persuading him earnestly.

"Okay, I understand sir, thank you for your generosity, I will work harder."

Jon thought so too, so he could only accept Lisko's reward.

"By the way, sir, there is one more thing I need to ask for your opinion."

Jon suddenly remembered something, and took this opportunity to seek Lisko's teaching.

"That's right. There is a Hollywood company that wants to use our bank building as a filming location. It is planned by United Artists. The movie is called Chaos War, starring Jason Statham and directed by Tony Giglio."

Lisko recalled, Jason Statham, this existence in China is called American Guo Da, Lisko is of course no stranger to this person, but the name of the director is inconspicuous, and he is not a big name. It may also be that you don't know it well.

Lisko still has an impression of the drama Chaos War. This drama tells the story of five gangsters breaking into a bank and taking 40 hostages.

Therefore, Lisko was not so surprised when Jon said that he wanted to film scenes in O'Gar Bank. In his previous life, the score of this drama was 7.1. As a popcorn movie, it is undoubtedly qualified, and the filming cost was 50 million US dollars. , this can be regarded as a B-level resource in Hollywood, and the evaluation and box office of the final release are also considered good.

It was obviously a good opportunity to advertise, and Liske didn't understand what Jon meant by asking himself this matter.

"It's like this, sir. At present, some people in the bank's top management think that if a movie about robbing a bank is made in the name of our bank, is it inappropriate? It will give the outside public, as well as depositors, a sense of insecurity. a feeling of."

Jon whispered about the current differences while looking at Lisko's face.

"This kind of person can be fired. This country is a social environment that entertains people to death. Even if they directly attack the president in a movie, the other party can only accept it with a smile. This is in line with the status quo. Could there really be After the stupid thief sees the movie, will he attack our bank according to the method in the movie?"
