The rejuvenation of a great nation: from educated youth to national treasure scientist

Chapter 321 Why does financialization lead to corruption? [Request for full order]

But Bill Morgan feels he is not respected here.

This young man from Longguo was very casual and relaxed in front of him.

He was full of confidence in his words and actions, and he didn't regard Bill Morgan as any big shot at all.

Bill Morgan had never met anyone like him before.

Anyone who wants to see him treats him like a god.

Even when he went to see the Eagle King, he was arrogant and had an attitude of superiority.

Now? This young man from Dragon Country was talking to him as an equal.

For a moment, Bill Morgan was a little uncomfortable.

"Mr. Ma, I wonder if this instant messaging software of yours is your own creation?" Bill Morgan asked.

Ma Yilong shook his head and said, "Haha! Mr. Morgan, you flatter me. This software was written by a genius in our country."

“I’m just an operator.”

Bill Morgan nodded and said, "So, you're just a manager?"

Ma Yilong said: "Yes, I am a manager."

“At the same time, I’m also a technician.”

Bill Morgan asked, "How is your income situation?"

Ma Yilong said: "This is a trade secret. It is definitely not convenient to talk about it."

"I wonder what business you have come for this time, Mr. Morgan?"

Ma Yilong thought, this old guy came over and started talking about all sorts of things, what on earth does he want to do?
Could it be that he wants to poach me?

Even if that wasn't the intention, I guess he didn't have any good intentions.

Bill Morgan smiled and said, "You did a great job!"

"At the beginning, no one could have imagined that QQ could make money."

“So, you are a top smart guy.”

"I really like smart people and I love dealing with smart people."

Ma Yilong smiled and said, "As long as there are users, we can definitely think of ways to monetize it."

“Even if you’re not smart, you’ll definitely find a way to make a profit.”

"Even if someone cuts off all advertising, it's actually not a big deal!"

“There is still a lot we can do.”

Ma Yilong gave Bill Morgan a tough blow.

The expression on Bill Morgan's face did not change.

He also knew that Ma Yilong's words were meant to mock himself.

Maybe they have already done a survey.

As one of the largest investment banks, Morgan controls quite a few companies and is an important shareholder of many large enterprises.

So, it affects a lot of businesses.

As long as it issues a notice, it is estimated that many companies will respond in terms of advertising and ban QQ.

Bill Morgan nodded appreciatively and said, "You are amazing!"

"In time, QQ will be able to make a lot of money just in our Giant Eagle."

"Mr. Ma, the main reason I came here this time is to see if we can cooperate."

“Aren’t you cooperating with other banks now?”

"If you can terminate your cooperation with those banks and only sign a cooperation agreement with our Morgan Bank, we can also let many companies start advertising with you."

Bill Morgan began to make his demands.

Ma Yilong raised his eyebrows.

What the hell!

I asked you for help before, but you ignored me.

Now that we've made some progress, you're asking for cooperation right away?

Do you think I will give you all the good things?

Ma Yilong felt a little annoyed.

"No, no! That's definitely not allowed!"

“Those banks supported us when we needed help the most.”

“These are truly our good friends and partners.”

"Now that our situation has improved, how can we kick them out right away?"

Ma Yilong refused directly.

WTF!

Whatever you say, it's up to you.

Do you really think you are the sun and everyone has to revolve around you?

Bill Morgan was a little depressed.

He didn't expect that the other party would reject him even though he took the initiative to show his goodwill.

"Mr. Ma, our Morgan is the largest bank in Giant Eagle!"

“We also have the most customers!”

"If you reject us, I believe you will lose more."

Bill Morgan tried to convince the other side.

Ma Yilong smiled and said, "When we do business, we must be honest."

"The other party has helped us, so for us, this is a friendship of sharing weal and woe!"

"As for cooperating with Morgan Bank, we are also willing to do so."

"But you are not qualified to make demands!"

Bill Morgan's face changed.

Tom turned pale with fright.

He thought to himself, doesn't this Dragon countryman know the power of the Morgan family?
How could he talk to Mr. Bill Morgan like that?
Morgan took the initiative to ask for cooperation, which is actually a favor!

You should be grateful!

Tom said quickly: "Mr. Ma, I think you should think about it carefully again."

"The Morgan family controls a lot of Giant Eagle's wealth and businesses!"

"Thirty percent of the entire Giant Eagle is in our hands!"

“We have a lot of energy in Morgan.”

"Mr. Morgan has a bad temper."

"If you refuse, I'm worried that you will run into a lot of trouble in the future!"

Well! The private secretary began to make threats.

Of course, for this gentleman, he may think he means well.

After all, damn it, he felt that what he said was true.

At Giant Eagle, there is almost no one who can make Bill Morgan unhappy!
Those who made Bill Morgan unhappy were dealt with.

At the very least, you won't be able to stay here.

In serious cases, you will be physically destroyed!
In Giant Eagle, suicide is a very normal and common occurrence.

Ma Yilong frowned and said, "Mr. Translator, are you threatening me?"

"But, I don't have any other advantages. My greatest advantage is that I am very strong!"

"If we want to discuss cooperation, I hope you don't use this kind of attitude. I won't accept it!"

Tom shrugged helplessly.

He thought to himself, I have finally opened my eyes!

The people of Dragon Country are surprisingly so tough.

Even the Eagle King wouldn't dare treat Bill Morgan like this!
Bill Morgan didn't understand Chinese. He saw his secretary talking to Ma Yilong, and both of them looked unhappy.

Perhaps this Dragon countryman was not impressed by his proposal.

"Tom, what is he talking about?"

"Could it be that he is simply unwilling to accept our proposal?"

Bill Morgan asked.

Tom quickly smiled and summarized Ma Yilong's words.

Bill Morgan was very angry. He muttered, "This damn yellow monkey!"

"I came to see him with good intentions, but he didn't show any gratitude at all!"

"Isn't he afraid of my anger?"

Bill Morgan muttered.

He has a loud voice.

He thought that Ma Yilong didn't understand English.

So, he had no scruples at all.

Ma Yilong frowned and suddenly said in English: "Mr. Morgan, if I call you a white pig, you will be very happy, right?" "Also, in the business world, it is best not to be arrogant and self-centered. It is meaningless!"

Bill Morgan was stunned.

Tom was also a little dumbfounded.

They subconsciously thought that Ma Yilong didn't understand English, so they always spoke in a more arrogant manner.

Unexpectedly, the other party seemed to speak quite good English.

This is a bit embarrassing.

No matter how arrogant white people are, they know how to restrain themselves in front of powerful people.

Because they can't actually do whatever they want.

The world is not ruled by them.

We often say that chaebols are inhumane.

This is because their desire to acquire wealth is endless.

They are always calculating and always grabbing.

If possible, they would like to sell the air to others at a marked price.

They even want to control everything that can be controlled.

Some people may not believe it, but in fact, all this inhumane greed is happening in reality.

For example: In Giant Eagle, water resources in many places are even controlled by a certain big capitalist!
Ordinary people need to buy water from each other if they want to use it.

Even if the administrative authorities use water, they have to pay for it!
The authorities controlled by the chaebols are also happy to cooperate in auctions to sell scarce hydropower resources.

For example, Angeles City once conducted a water resource auction.

At the auction, the water resources around Angeles City were sold to an agricultural tycoon at a price of $29 per acre.

If anyone else wants to use water, they have to buy it from him at a high price.

What’s even more ridiculous is that these inhumane tycoons are using various charities to package themselves.

Bill Morgan took a breath.

He finally understood.

The young talent from Dragon Country in front of him was not someone who could be taken down by just a few threats.

Bill Morgan smiled and said, "Mr. Ma, it turns out you can speak English."

"Actually, I am just a little bit frank."

“But I’m a really good partner.”

Ma Yilong laughed and said in English: "Maybe that's the case!"

"But you gave me a very bad feeling."

"You look fierce and have a domineering air."

"That's probably because you're used to being domineering in Giant Eagle."

"And what we in Dragon Country value is true fairness!"

"Since we are business partners, we must be equal!"

"Rather than one side suppressing the other."

"That's definitely not possible."

"I wonder if Mr. Morgan has anything else to say?"

Ma Yilong doesn't want to waste his time with this giant tycoon.

He planned to serve tea to the guests.

Bill Morgan's attitude has softened at this moment.

"You are right, absolutely right!"

"Mr. Ma, I think we will become real good friends!"

"Then let's shake hands and make peace, how about that?"

"I also sincerely hope to become a good friend of the dragon."

"Honestly, the dragons are a country that I really respect."

"I have a great fondness for you guys."

Ma Yilong felt a little annoyed.

These white people! When they are arrogant, they really don't treat others as human beings.

However, when they find that they cannot control the other party, they become quite flexible.

However, from the nice words Bill Morgan said, we can see that he thinks he can make others feel good about them just by saying a few nice words. This is still treating others as fools!
But the more these people did this, the more Ma Yilong looked down on them.

Ma Yilong said calmly: "Whether we are good friends or not, it is meaningless to say it with your mouth."

"The most important thing is to take action and let the facts speak for themselves."

"Of course I'm also very happy to be good friends with you."

"Mr. Morgan, please do something kind first so I can see."

Bill Morgan was furious.

He suddenly realized that he seemed to be led by the nose by the young Dragon man in front of him.

This feeling is really fucking bad.

But he had no good way to reverse the current situation.

For a while, he was so daring that he wanted to physically destroy Ma Yilong.

However, he didn't dare.

Because the other party is not on the Giant Eagle's side.

The opponent's background is a dragon.

He was worried that the dragon would conduct a full investigation and then find out about him.

Bottom line: Bill Morgan now has a little bit of awe for dragons.

He had to restrain his previous arrogance because he realized the great changes in the world situation.

Bill Morgan smiled and said, "Mr. Ma, I will encourage the companies we control to advertise on QQ."

"Look, is this okay?"

Bill Morgan said this almost with his nose held.

Ma Yilong smiled and said, "Of course, we welcome you."

“We will make advertisers realize that placing our ads will have a very good effect!”

“They’ll get more orders and sales because of it.”

Bill Morgan made a goodwill gesture, and he hoped that Ma Yilong would take the initiative to give him a goodwill return.

However, Ma Yilong did not reciprocate.

Ma Yilong did not even take the initiative to request access to Morgan Bank's payment system.

Online payment actually means setting up an account as a receiving account.

The cash collected will be deposited in this bank.

This is of great benefit to banks.

Unfortunately, Ma Yilong never talks about this matter now.

Bill Morgan shrugged and said, "Well, let's sign a cooperation agreement. Our bank is willing to cooperate with you. Can you open an account with us?"

He had to bring it up.

Otherwise, his special visit this time would probably have yielded nothing.

Ma Yilong smiled and said, "Of course."

“We would love to work with you.”

“It’s a win-win situation.”

"Let's have a good talk between the two sides later."

Bill Morgan proposed to visit QQ company.

Ma Yilong also agreed.

He took Bill Morgan to visit QQ's office building.

He found that the work order here was well organized, and quite a number of the staff were from the Dragon side.

They have quite a few staff members! There must be at least several thousand of them now, right?

However, if a company with only a few thousand employees can create hundreds of millions of dollars in wealth every day, it can definitely make super profits.

Bill Morgan was a little jealous.

Such a promising Internet company is not listed?

What made him even more frustrated was that he didn’t even have the opportunity to invest?
You know, among the Giant Eagle companies today, there is almost no company that has not been touched by Morgan.

As long as a company is listed, giants like Morgan will have the means to gradually turn a good company into their own.

This is also the main reason why the Eagle is becoming more and more financialized: the entities are controlled by financial tycoons.

These financial tycoons don’t care about the development of real businesses. As long as they can raise the stock price through speculation and make them more wealthy, that’s the way to go!
In Giant Eagle, many great companies have indeed emerged.

But once those companies were controlled by financial tycoons, they all started to go wrong without exception.
