Hardy Empire 1945
Chapter 262: The Temptation of Big Business
Your Excellency, you just said that there are three teams. Do you know who the other two teams are? Hardy asked.
Johnson smiled,
One is Rockefeller, the other is Citibank, and they will each form a team.
Hearing these two names, Hardy was slightly startled.
The Rockefeller consortium, which controls the U.S. and even the global oil economy, is the second largest consortium in the U.S., only under Morgan, and even surpassed Morgan in later generations.
Kissinger once said: Whoever controls the oil controls all the countries; whoever controls the right to issue currency controls the world; whoever controls the grain controls the human race!
The Rockefeller consortium not only controls oil, but also finance, and its consortium involves almost everything you can think of.
What surprised Hardy was why it was Rockefeller instead of Morgan, because there is a saying that the Democratic Party belongs to Morgan, the Republican Party belongs to Rockefeller, and Johnson is the Democratic President, but let Rockefeller join the European Investment Express.
But Hardy turned his head and figured it out.
Before Johnson, there was no big capital to invest in him at all, which made him a president, and his approval rating was so much lower than that of the candidate Dewey. To put it bluntly, it was the result of the operation and promotion of the consortium.
Later, Hardy appeared, and finally there was a force to support him. In fact, Johnson's foundation is very solid. After all, he is the current president, and he did a good job in his term. There is no reason to be abandoned.
Then came the matter of supporting the founding of the Jewish state, which allowed him to gain the support of the Jews. The Citibank consortium has a deep Jewish background on Wall Street. Hardy estimates that this is one of the forces supporting Johnson.
As for the Rockefeller Foundation.
In fact, I called Giannini a few days ago and hoped that the Eastern Consortium would let Dewey go. They were also Dewey's supporters. They still owe Hardy a favor, but now, Rockefeller has joined the Marshall Plan.
What does this mean?
It is possible that they have given up on Dewey in favor of Johnson.
This is a very interesting signal.
However, Hardy also knows that for the big consortium money owners, they never have the so-called fixed political attributes of the outside world.
Whoever told you that Rockefeller can only support Republicans, who said that Morgan can only support Democrats.
They are the gold lords.
It's dad.
Support whoever you want to support, and support whoever can bring benefits to yourself.
They are the rule-makers.
Play how you want.
Former US President Harry Truman once publicly described it: The two-party system in the United States is a two-party system.
Although there are disputes between the various consortiums, they are all disputes of interests, which can be settled through negotiation. There has never been a violent dispute of life and death.
Make money like that.
Others can do the same.
In fact, from the point of view of winning Rockefeller, Johnson's political ability is actually very powerful. He had no support at all, and then used the power in his hand to plan a little bit, using the Jewish state-building plan, to encircle the Jews, and now he uses Marshall to invest European plan to pull Rockefeller over.
certainly,
Now that he can have such a high approval rate and stomp Dewey under his feet, Hardy's credit is the first.
This is also the first batch of European construction plans will have his seat.
Because these three forces are very important to Johnson.
Some people may understand the relationship between the consortium and the investee as investment and control, but this is not the case, and more should be cooperation.
Politicians are not fools, and they are not arbitrarily controlled by the financial masters.
The combination of the two parties is for the benefit, and no one completely controls the other. It is a cooperative relationship that supports and utilizes each other.
There is cooperation and communication, as well as disagreements and filth. There is no investment once and for all, and there will be no financial masters ordering politicians in subsequent cooperation, but they will move forward in coordination with each other.
There are also face-turning.
And quite a few.
certainly,
A lot of people died, lol.
Now Johnson has given Hardy a team spot, and Hardy can form his own team in the past, which is equivalent to giving Hardy great rights.
He has the final say on who to bring or not.
......
Next, the two talked about campaign speeches. Johnson is now entering September, and the general election is less than two months away. During this time, Johnson's focus is on the election.
Hadi, next stop I'm going to San Francisco, and then some cities in the south. I plan to go to all the cities I can go, no matter how big or small. Although my approval rating has improved a lot in the polls now, I can't have a point. Relax, Johnson said.
This guy is really diligent, and most people can't stand such a high-intensity speech.
I have made arrangements for San Francisco, and the scale there will not be small. If other cities need support, feel free to speak up. Hardy said with a smile.
Johnson smiled and patted Hardy's arm.
the next day,
Johnson left Los Angeles for San Francisco.
Hardy followed.
Many big names in San Francisco came to greet them, including city officials, celebrities and many big business owners.
Now that Johnson's approval rating has risen, many people have taken the initiative to post it.
At the reception, Giannini also came. There were hundreds of high-ranking people in San Francisco at the reception. Johnson stood on the stage and delivered a passionate speech.
Hardy and Giannini stand together.
Giannini looked at Johnson who was too little, and whispered to Hardy: Hady, I read in the newspaper that you gave President Johnson the lowest winning odds. It seems that you are very confident in Johnson's victory.
Actually, that's part of the propaganda. It influences people's thinking about winning the presidential election through the odds, and makes people more inclined to believe that Johnson will win. Hardy smiled.
Giannini thought that was indeed the case.
I have to say that Hardy can really play with people's hearts.
And I am really optimistic about Johnson. I used to bet a lot, but now I am more and more confident. Hardy said.
Giannini knew Hardy was talking about Dewey receiving foreign political donations.
This time Dewey was really cheated.
The original situation was good, but the reputation was greatly damaged by a political donation.
In fact, Dewey has the support of the big Eastern consortium, and he has no shortage of campaign funds, but he received this money. It can only be said that greed kills people.
Especially when Hardy knew about it.
Hardy made a big fuss about this incident, the reporter was hunted down, and the Black Gold documentary caught Dewey and stepped on it again and again, and his moves were extremely fierce.
Not to mention Dewey, even the people in the big consortium didn't react for a while, and they were influenced by Hardy in this election.
Hardy took a sip of wine,
Lowering his voice, he said, Johnson invited me to join the Marshall Plan and organize an expedition to Europe. I am one of the three expedition groups.
Janini was taken aback.
Marshall Plan, Invest in Europe.
With the keen sense of a Giannini banker, he immediately sensed that this was an opportunity to make a lot of money.
Hadi, tell me in detail. Giannini said anxiously.
Hardy smiled, There's too much content, let's have a good chat after the reception.
Giannini also realized that this was not the right place to talk. For the next cocktail party, Giannini had been looking forward to the end soon. After 10 o'clock in the evening, the cocktail party was over. Giannini couldn't wait to pull Hardy into his car. Drive to Janini Manor.
The two lit cigars in the study.
Hardy asked, Mr. Giannini, you should know the content of the Marshall Plan?
Of course I know that last year, Secretary of State Marshall gave a speech at Harvard University and proposed a plan to assist Europe's economic recovery. The outside world called it the Marshall Plan.
There were a lot of reports in the newspapers at that time. World War II hit the European economy hard, and the economies of many countries were on the verge of collapse. Food, fuel, and various materials were extremely scarce. Now the United States is the only importing country, but they have no money.
The Marshall Plan includes 16 countries including Britain, France, Italy, Austria, Belgium, Netherlands, Rwanda, Switzerland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Portugal, Greece, Turkey, Ireland, and Iceland, and is prepared to provide loans and assistance of about 22.4 billion US dollars, and several I read a report a month ago that Johnson signed the deal and was in the process of preparing it.
Hardy nodded.
Europe needs to rebuild, but they have no money or materials, and everything is lacking. The U.S. government has decided to help part of it, but it is impossible to fully meet their demands and subsidize all their own country's money.
President Johnson is going to set up a private mission, which will act together with the economic aid mission. If those countries need loans, we can borrow privately, and where there is a need for investment, we can invest.
Another point is that they need a lot of materials for reconstruction, such as building materials, reinforced concrete, etc. They need all kinds of materials, food, cars, oil, and so many things.
I estimate that 80% of the money given to them will be used to buy supplies from the United States. There are many places for us to make money.
Also, those countries have prepared a batch of investment lists, and members of the delegation can invest in the infrastructure of those countries, such as water, electricity, manufacturing, automobiles and other industries, to help them recover.
It is said to help recovery, but it is actually investing to make money.
The more Janini listened to Yue, the more excited he became.
More than 20 billion cakes, even if they only eat a small piece, it is a lot of money for them. If the California consortium can get on this train, it will definitely usher in a period of great development.
Hady, who are the other two teams? Giannini asked.
Rockefeller, Citigroup. Hardy answered very simply, but Giannini was shocked when he heard it.
My brain was running fast, and I figured out a lot of things in an instant.
President Johnson probably has the support of Rockefeller and Citigroup, and Giannini looks at Hardy here.
The investment vision of this young man is so unique.
Invest in Johnson early, and once Johnson is re-elected, Hardy is bound to reap great benefits.
And now.
It's up to them to choose whether to invest in Hardy.
After all, the California consortium was ready to give up Hardy before, although they had a private agreement, but outsiders do not know that kind of thing. I am afraid that both of him and Hardy can guess what they are thinking. If you want to further win Hardy, you must do actual compensation.
