Manhattan Reborn 1978

Blue Crystal Hotel, in the banquet hall on the second floor.

On one side, people drank and laughed.

the other side.

David told Giles the truth.

Giles went petrified.

This is very embarrassing. . . .

In fact, when Giles and David were talking, the middle-aged man standing next to Giles had been listening and did not leave.

The middle-aged man's name is Pine, who is Giles's attendant.

Well, to be more precise, they are the Morgan family, partners, friends, and followers trained for generations of descendants of the family.

Whatever you call it will do.

He had no surname, the Morgan family - Pine.

Pine is 12 years older than Giles. He grew up with Giles, went to school together, listened to the teachings of his family, etc.

He is Giles' shadow, counselor, assistant, steward, and brother.

Morgan Sr.'s shadow, Pine's uncle, passed away last year.

Because of this incident, old Morgan was ill for two months.

This is a parasitic and symbiotic relationship.

Many older large families have similar arrangements and similar people.

It's just that people who are not from these families don't know the details.

The Wharton family, where Giles' friend Bloomer belongs, does not have this tradition.

As the main member of the California consortium, the Wharton family is a new generation of wealthy family that slowly grew up after World War I and during the Great Depression.

Yes!

The wealth family, which has existed for nearly 50 years, is a new generation in Morgan's eyes. . .

When David came over to say hello at first, Pine paid no attention to him.

As a member of the Morgan family, you shouldn't encounter this kind of situation too often.

But after hearing what David said, he began to look at David seriously.

No matter in any era, people who can start from scratch and create such a foundation at such a young age are worthy of admiration!

The strong will always attract the spontaneous respect of everyone.

Because everyone knows how difficult this is!

At the end of the story, David’s company was only established yesterday. . . .All companies. . .yesterday?

Pine feels a little cracked, this joke is not funny!

David looked at the petrified Giles and the cracked Pine with some amusement.

He said to Pine: "You still don't know who this gentleman is?"

"Call me Pine, I am Mr. Giles' assistant." Pine responded politely first.

David feels that this Pine is worthy of being a person cultivated in a big family, and his quality is high!Facing a liar like him, he didn't show any negative emotions.

While Giles was digesting the information, he told Pine about the origin of the Da Group and the business it involved.

The details include opening low-price stores, purchasing unsalable agricultural products from farmers, building beverage factories, service companies, connecting them with transportation companies, and cooperating with trading companies.

Then I talked about clothing companies and advertising companies.

The classic "Shit Happens." finally caught Giles' attention.

"Did you come up with this advertising slogan?" Giles asked in surprise.

David nodded: "Yeah, when I was a bartender in a bar, I always met all kinds of people. They may experience ridiculous things every day that you would never think of in your life. So, ShitHappens! "

"Be more open-minded and the sun will rise as usual tomorrow!"

Giles and the two were silent.

It is true that David's frankness and these Zen-like words made the two of them like him so much.

In Vanity Fair, there are always various characters appearing.

David is definitely the most dazzling flower among them!

Only David himself knew that the skill "Persuader" must have played a role, otherwise he would have been thrown out by the security guard. . .

Persuader (passive): When communicating with others, if you have already gained initial recognition from others.When you are sincere and try to persuade others to agree with you, your views, opinions, and suggestions are more likely to be accepted and adopted. (This skill is affected by the charm attribute, and each point increases the success rate by 10%)

It was Pine who figured it out faster and spoke first:

"Giles, I think since Mr. Coleman is confident about the time when oil futures will explode. Then we can sign a betting agreement with Mr. Coleman.

Then set up an investment fund, use the income of the da group in the next five years to borrow 500 million from the bank, and inject it into the fund to conduct transactions. "

Giles nodded and waited for Pine to continue.

"Well, Mr. Coleman, now we need to confirm a few things!"

"Okay Pine, no need to be so polite, just call me David."

"Okay David, first of all we want to know, according to your prediction, will this crisis break out within two months?"

Pine is really awesome. He asked about the key to this investment in one sentence: "Two months."

David only remembers that around the end of this year, that is, around December, the Pahlavi dynasty will be overthrown and a new cabinet will be established.

Then, almost in the spring of next year, the change of government was completely completed.

It's only the end of August.

After summing up, David shook his head and said: "It shouldn't break out within two months."

"Why?" Giles wanted to know what David's prediction was based on.

You know, the timing of the outbreak.

Ok. . . .

Maybe King Pahlavi himself didn't know when he would be finished. . . .

How could he be sure that Pahlavi could last two months?

As I said just now, this is related to the time of entry!

It's not enough if it's early, and you can only eat some dregs if it's too late. .

David has a bullshit prediction.

So he told the truth.

"Based on current and past news, situations, developments, etc., I'm guessing."

Uh. . . .

The two people on the other side were silent. . . .

David found that every time he told the truth, the people he talked to always liked to use silence to express their speechlessness towards him.

"Well David, you must know that after such a big event happens, the market will fluctuate violently, and bulls and shorts will compete fiercely. If your guess is wrong and we enter the market early, our funds may not be able to hold on for even a few minutes. You will lose all your money.”

"Yes, Pine. So we need professional people to analyze all kinds of information and provide evidence for my judgment. Only in this way can our investment make a lot of money. This is why I came to Giles to cooperate. reasons."

"The information department in an investment bank?"

"Yes, Giles."

The two of them understood that David had no funds and no information channels. Based on speculation, he still wanted to enter the market and eat meat.

"I'm sorry David, I think it's difficult for me to make an investment decision." Giles politely rejected David's proposal.

"Giles, my friend, do you think this will work? I will use my personal shares as collateral to borrow the next five years of income from Da Group to bet against the 500 million dollars invested in the fund."

"If in this futures market, my misjudgment causes us to lose money or even lose everything. I will transfer all the shares of Da Group to your name and promise to help you earn back your money within one year. The losing part.”

"Within a year? You know David, by then you may owe a loan from Da Group, and you will be penniless but in debt worth tens of millions of dollars."

"Yes, Giles."

David thought to himself that he had no right to borrow five years' income from Da.He also bet 500 million dollars. . .

The current registered capital of da group is less than 250 million knives.

However, I feel confident about repaying tens of millions of debts. There is a big event that will happen in the next two years on my small notebook.

David had already confirmed it before, so I guess it didn’t go away!

When Giles heard David's answer, he signaled to Pine, and the two of them took a few steps away.

Giles asked: "I think David is a nice person and very candid. But what he said about this is a bit unreliable. What do you think? Pine."

"Actually, Giles, when you asked this question, you already had the answer in your heart. Didn't you?"

Pine did not directly answer Giles' question.

They both knew that the Morgan family's fortune was related to two figures.

And among the two key men who made the Morgan family's fortune soar, none of them had the surname Morgan.

Investment depends on strength, timing, vision, courage, and people.

Morgan family motto is that talent is the key to the success of all investments.

Giles made a decision in his mind and asked Pine to seek some psychological support. The two had been together for too long.

Giles consulted Pine on everything.

David was very relaxed now. His frank performance made Giles recognize his character, and he felt comfortable in his own heart.

He really wants to make friends with this super rich second generation, his thighs are so thick!The hair on his legs could crush David to death hundreds of times.

Of course, if David had been kneeling and licking him as soon as he came up, he would probably be thrown out by now.

Seeing Giles walking towards him with a smile, David knew that the matter was done, stretched out his hand and said: "So it's decided?"

Giles held David's hand and said:

"Yes David, tomorrow afternoon. We will go to Stanley to sign the documents, and then we need you to bring your lawyer, accountant and others with you. Pine will contact you tomorrow morning for specific details."

David laughed and took out his business card and handed it to Pine.

He knew he would succeed, but he also lamented in his heart that the Morgan family was so famous.

He has the vision and courage to succeed in the tide of the times, and he also has the courage to end decisively when he sees a glimmer of opportunity.

Now that Morgan has Giles, its glory can last at least 50 years.

Um.Said by David Coleman.

Remembering that Giles had just said that he would bring a lawyer with him tomorrow, David asked Pine for help and asked him to introduce a reliable and inexpensive lawyer.

Pine thought about it and found out that there was actually a young man who graduated from Giles’ alma mater, Harvard Law School, and had been interning at a New York law firm for more than two years.

It has a solid foundation, practical work experience, and most importantly, it’s cheap.

I will take him with me tomorrow. The investment bank has a group of lawyers who have been doing this job all year round. You can take them with you and teach them on the spot.

As David thanked him, he went upstairs to find the lawyer's contact information.
