Rebirth of the Super Landlord

After the wedding banquet, the guests all left one after another. Lux and Charlize also returned to the hotel with their children. Also leaving were Bell's wife and Ham Al Fahim's female companions, but they themselves did not leave.

go.

In the underground conference room of the manor where Carrick got married, Su Zhen and other five people sat around a round table.

"Ahem, welcome to the Avengers." Su Zhen knocked on the table lightly, but the words he said made the other four people almost gasp. They all stared at Su Zhen with dissatisfaction. This was a waste of their time.

The expression.

"Haha, just kidding, liven up the atmosphere, don't be so serious." Su Zhenle waved his hands and said, and then his expression changed instantly. "Now let's talk about business." It seemed that among the five people, he was now in the

assumed the position of leader.

"Since everyone can come this time, I believe everyone should have carefully considered what I said. I wonder what you think?" Su Zhen asked. Although they were nominally here to attend Carrick's wedding this time,

But in fact, their more important hidden purpose is to discuss preparations for the economic crisis that will begin next year.

At the very beginning, Su Zhen was preparing to make a fortune quietly. With his accumulation, it was not difficult to make a fortune in this world economic crisis. However, as his status and wealth increased,

With the changes, Su Zhen is no longer limited to being a rich man. He hopes to go further. He hopes to become a member of the top consortium and become one of the controllers of the American economy. To do this, as a first

first generation immigrants

, the fastest way, but it is very difficult to do this by just relying on himself or the Su Group, so he needs a partner. And the partners he chose are his five friends, among whom Carrick represents

The local forces in the United States, as one of the old American consortiums, do not have their own banks in the United States like other consortiums, but their influence in the United States cannot be ignored, and Hamm, who represents Dubai, and Abu, who represents Dubai

Al Fahim of the Zabi Consortium has huge financial backing, which is what Su Zhen needs. Today, the Su Group's group assets have reached nearly 100 billion, and Su Zhen's personal assets have exceeded 50 billion. In this year's Forbes

Already tied for first place with Bill Gates. But Su Zhen knows that this seemingly huge wealth is still not enough in front of the top financial groups in the United States. Moreover, although there are so many personal assets, it does not mean that Su Zhen can use them.

There are so many funds. In fact, the funds Su Zhen can use now are only about 6 billion U.S. dollars, and this seemingly large number may be able to make considerable profits in the economic crisis, but if you want to achieve your goals,

This is not enough, so the UAE royal family, which has huge funds, is obviously a very good partner, and in order to allow them to join with confidence, Su Zhen also provided some of his own assets as guarantee.

Of course, Su Zhen is not so arrogant as to say that he wants to control the Federal Reserve. Because that is simply impossible. A behemoth like the Federal Reserve cannot be controlled by one force alone. Today, New York, Boston, and Philadelphia control the Federal Reserve.

There are twelve Federal Reserve Banks in Cleveland, Richmond, Atlanta, Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Dallas and San Francisco, of which the Reserve Bank of New York is the largest controller.

In the last century, the New York Reserve Bank was owned by Citigroup 15%, Chase Manhattan 14% (Rockefeller), Morgan Trust 9%, Hanover Manufacturing 7% (Rothschild), and Hanover Bank 8%, collectively controlling 53% of the shares.

The remaining shares are held by a number of other families and bankers, including the oldest family in the United States, the Mellon family. In other words, in fact, the largest controllers of the Federal Reserve are still Morgan, Rockefeller, and Rothschild.

The four Mellon families, especially the Rockefeller and Morgan families, have moved from confrontation to unity with the development of the times. The biggest proof is the merger of Chase Manhattan and Morgan Trust in 2000, which became the current JPMorgan Chase.

It is difficult for Su Zhen to get involved in the family, so Su Zhen's goal is naturally on Citibank. As for why it is not Hanhua Bank? First, it is because Hanhua Bank has few shares, but because of the origin of Hanhua Bank.

It is not simple. In fact, this Chinese bank has a great relationship with the Chinese, which will be discussed later.

"In fact, my financial analysts have calculated that the possibility of the economic crisis you mentioned is very high, but the specific time cannot be judged. However, based on your past success in the financial market, I choose to believe you. By next year

Before the second half of the year, I can mobilize about five billion US dollars in funds." The first person to speak was Hamm. In recent years, according to Su Zhen's reminders and his control, Dubai World has begun to purposefully reduce various large-scale projects.

,Although this cannot completely avoid the impact of the economic crisis in Dubai, the losses will definitely be reduced. At least in the absence of an economic crisis, Dubai's cash flow has been temporarily stabilized, so Hamm believes in Su Zhen.

Yes, and the five billion US dollars he said were not national assets, but royal assets. You must know that national assets and royal assets are completely different things. Therefore, even if a country is short of funds, it does not mean that the royal family is also short of funds.

Don’t you see that even if Dubai goes bankrupt in the future, the life of the royal family is still very nourishing? However, these 5 billion funds account for almost one-third of the assets of the Dubai royal family. It is conceivable that Hamm’s support for Su Zhen

How huge it is. After Ham finished speaking, everyone else nodded. They all consulted their own economic analysts and the result was that an economic crisis is possible, but this is enough. After all, this kind of thing

It is unpredictable in the first place. In fact, this is also a kind of gambling. If the bet wins, the benefits will be huge. If the bet loses, although it will break their muscles and bones, it will not completely sink them. What's more,

Su Zhen also used a lot of his high-quality assets as collateral, and Su Zhen had not yet failed in the financial market, which made them choose to take this gamble.

"His Royal Highness William said that he could not convince other royal members, but he convinced his brother, His Highness Harry, that the funds they could mobilize were about 200 million pounds, all of which were handed over to Su You for control. His Highness William said, this is all

"All his property is gone," Bell said. Su Zhen nodded after hearing this. Bell was different from the others sitting here. He did not represent himself, but Prince William. Since the time of the eavesdropping scandal, Bell had become Su Zhen and Prince William.

After all, as a member of the British royal family, Prince William lives under the spotlight almost all the time, so it is very inconvenient for him to act. Therefore, after the eavesdropping scandal, Bell, who was born in a politician family, became Prince William and Prince William.

Su Zhen is the spokesman for maintaining good relations. Although Prince William’s funds are not large, it is indeed very difficult for William, who is only the second heir, to be able to come up with so much. Moreover, the reason why Su Zhen invited William

The prince joined not because of funds, but because of the influence of the British royal family. Although Britain is no longer the Britain it once was, as the former suzerain country, the British royal family still has influence in the United States and those members of the Commonwealth.

For those with great influence, some actions will be much simpler with William joining.

"I convinced my cousin Prince Mansour that our Abu Dhabi consortium can mobilize 10 billion U.S. dollars in funds," Al Fahim said with a smile. Others were not surprised by this. To tell the truth, sitting here

Of all the people, if you want to say they are rich and powerful, none of them can compare to those in Abu Dhabi. Even if they tie the Su Group and the DuPont Consortium together, it will not work. Moreover, Abu Dhabi

The generosity of Dhabi is related to the political strategy of the upper echelons of Abu Dhabi. Like the Russian Abu, although they are extremely rich, politically the Middle Eastern royal family has always been rejected by the world's mainstream society (Europe and the United States), so as long as they can

The opportunity to improve their international status has always been spared, so naturally they will not let this opportunity pass.

"It is estimated that Elena and I can mobilize about five billion US dollars." After a few people finished speaking, Carrick also said, but his words made everyone look at him.

"Don't look at me like that. After all, we are just one of the members of the family." Carrick smiled and said, implying that he would only participate in this plan on their behalf. "But you

Don’t worry, there won’t be any shortage of support from family resources.”

Several other people suddenly realized that Carrick was planning to use family resources to make profits for himself. After all, unlike others, the three branches of the Dupont family stood on a united front externally, but internally,

The relationship between the troika is not very harmonious, but if Carrick can make some gains in the upcoming economic crisis, it is very likely that he will surpass the other two and completely control the DuPont family.

"That's good. From now on, the funds we can directly mobilize will exceed 20 billion U.S. dollars. If we borrow money from banks, it will not be a problem to raise 40 billion U.S. dollars. No surprise, we can get more profits

It will be much higher than this figure, and my suggestion for the profit obtained is to acquire a bank and form a joint consortium of our own. I wonder if you are interested?" Su Zhen said to the four people sitting with a smile.

made his final plan.

"Acquire a bank?" The others were stunned. Originally, they all thought that Su Zhen was just trying to make a fortune by taking advantage of the economic crisis. They did not expect that Su Zhen would say that he wanted to acquire a bank. However, they frowned upon hearing this.

"Although acquiring banks is a good thing, even if we make a lot of profits from this crisis, it is still not enough to acquire big banks, right? And acquiring small banks is meaningless," Carrick said, DuPont Consortium

The reason why it has always been at the bottom among many financial groups in the United States is because it does not have its own bank. This bank in question

This is not a small bank with tens of billions of dollars, but a very large bank like JPMorgan Chase that can quickly raise funds for families. The capital of such banks is basically in the hundreds of billions. If you want to acquire such a large bank, you can

It's not that difficult, otherwise the DuPont family wouldn't have been able to successfully control a large bank after working hard for hundreds of years.

"Of course it's a large bank. It's difficult to acquire under normal circumstances, but what if this bank is hit hard by the economic crisis?" Su Zhen said with a smile.

"That is feasible, but now the large banks in the United States are basically controlled by major families. If it is not a life-and-death situation, even if it is hit hard, I am afraid they will not sell it." Carrick thought for a while and said...

But he quickly reflected that there seemed to be one bank that was not completely controlled by our group.

"You mean Citi?" Carrick looked at Su Zhen in surprise and asked. He didn't expect that Su Zhen was so ambitious that he would even have the idea of ​​​​a super behemoth like Citi. (To be continued...)
