Rebirth

Chapter 1023 Tradition and Upstart

The two women of Theron and Bellucci were asked to go around in the venue, but Li Feng sat down and chatted with the two giants at the helm. Then, several family helms came over, such as Richard Mellon, Pierre Dupont III waited and knew who they were.

"John, you have now completed the transaction and reached a cooperation with PNC. You have previously reached cooperation with the Rockefeller Fund and the Roosevelt Foundation. When will you complete several transactions with us?" Pierre Dupont III sat aside at this time. Said to Li Feng with a smile.

"Really, it's not easy. I heard that the DuPont family owns shares in Lockheed Martin and General Motors (General Motors has shares in DuPont, Morgan and other families). Or, sell the shares directly to me. How about? This will conclude the transaction." Li Feng immediately turned his eyes and replied jokingly when he heard the words of the head of the DuPont family.

"Uh…"

"Haha..., Pierre, you want to find a bargain from little John, it is not easy!"

"..."

"Little guy, you are really..., aren't you afraid of eating too much and swallowing?"

"Haha... I'm young, my digestive function is too strong, I'm not afraid to swallow." Li Feng replied with a smile.

"What about me?" Richard Mellon asked jokingly at this time.

"It's easier. I just happened to read the news of Mellon Bank these days. It is said that the market value is more than 20 billion U.S. dollars. Or I will directly bid 30 billion. How about you sell Mellon Bank to Century Standard Chartered Bank?" Hearing what Mellon’s head family said, Li Feng immediately responded jokingly.

"Uh…"

"Haha..."

...

This is of course a joke. The heads of the two giants will naturally not let go of the family's core business, which is just a joke.

In terms of wealth, in fact, the Mellon and DuPont families today are not inferior or even slightly better than Rockefeller and Morgan.

Yes, if the Rockefeller family and the Morgan family were stronger than Mellon and DuPont at the beginning, then with the decline of the Rockefeller and the Morgan family, Mellon and DuPont have continued their glory, although they can’t be compared with the heyday, but Now, Mellon and the DuPont family are no less inferior to the Morgan and Rockefeller families.

Even in the annual Forbes family rankings, the wealth of the two big families is greater than that of the two former giants. Of course, Forbes is only a reference. After all, many things are impossible to publish.

However, this is also evident.That is, the Mellon and DuPont families are indeed better developed than Rockefeller and Morgan.

The Mellon family has its Mellon Bank as its core, and Mellon Bank has always been under the control of the Mellon family, and the DuPont family is the same. It has its own core industry, such as DuPont, a giant in the global chemical industry. Has been in the hands of the DuPont family.

The Rockefeller family and the Morgan family, although they have a large number of company shares, but to be honest, whether they are in financial giants such as JPMorgan Bank or Chase Manhattan Bank, the two families have very few shares and can no longer take control. .

The Rockefeller family is okay, at least Mobil Oil is still under control, and many American companies, including Lockheed Martin, have certain shares, and their strength is still there.

However, the Morgan family has experienced a severe decline. Many companies have lost their status as major shareholders, and at most retain minority shareholders. Although they still have influence, their influence has declined drastically.

...

Li Feng was chatting with a few big giants, but three old men appeared again in front of everyone. Two of them were very familiar with Li Feng. Don’t be too familiar with these two faces, whether they are in the past or in this life. Stuck in the antitrust vortex-Microsoft's Gates classmate and American god of wealth-Mr. Stock God.

As for another, Li Feng, who was an ordinary person in the previous life, may have forgotten about it, but he will never forget such a character in this life. After all, Li Feng is still in the United States now. Naturally, he should pay attention to such a character. Now, it is Allen Green, the chairman of the United States.

Seeing the three people coming over to say hello, Li Feng and the others stopped chatting, and began to greet and greet one another.

If we say that families like Rockefeller, Morgan, Mellon, and DuPont represent the traditional wealthy families of the United States, then families such as Buffett, Gates, and Li Feng are even the current American upstarts.

To be honest, the rise of upstarts in most cases inevitably represents the decline of old brands. This is what history tells us. Similarly, the rise of Li Feng, Gates and others is naturally opposed to these old families. Of course, shrewd People will always have a way. Since you can't stop your rise, join forces and cooperate with each other.

Compared with Li Feng, Gates’ retreat is even smaller. After all, there is only one Microsoft in Gates’ hands. Although one Microsoft is enough, after all, Microsoft now monopolizes the global commercial operating system market, and the software high-tech industry is famous. Is high profit.

It can be said that Microsoft's huge profits make the entire upper class of the United States jealous. Perhaps this is one of the biggest reasons why Microsoft has to face antitrust investigations.

In 1995, Gates owned more than 4 tiers of shares in Microsoft. Today, although the value is getting higher and higher, the shares are only about half of that in 1995 and will be even scarcer in the future.To be honest, Gates' worth is definitely shrunk.

Originally, Li Feng would be more likely to conflict with these traditional giants. After all, Li Feng’s current career has begun to involve the industries of these traditional giants. For example, military, automotive, energy and other industries are regarded as those traditional giants ruling. Industry.

Fortunately, Li Feng initially chose to cooperate with such giants as Rockefeller and Roosevelt. In addition, Li Feng chose the blind spots of these giants in the industry to give Li Feng an opportunity, such as the Rolls Royce for automobiles. As well as a number of luxury supercars in Europe as an entry point, they have avoided direct collisions with these traditional giants in the United States.

...

Among the three of Li Feng, Gates, and Buffett, Buffett is the most comfortable. They just guard their investment companies, and then go out to invest in those large company shares, stocks, etc. No one will offend them, and they can even become different. The guests of big companies, after all, have a good reputation.

"Allen, since September, the Federal Reserve has cut interest rates three times in a row and cut interest rates quickly, which surprised us, but it was also a magical trick and it did a beautiful job.

America was spared the influence from Asia, but you have won the praise of the United States and the world. Speaking of which, everyone in this room should thank you so much, so that we have all avoided losses."Old David said to the Fed Chairman Allen with a smile.

Since assuming the chairmanship of the Federal Reserve in the late 1980s, Allen has been known for his shrewdness, and he has indeed made outstanding achievements. When he took office, he was faced with the financial crisis and stock market crash of 1987. He was in danger and was ordered to relax money and stop the vicious development of the stock market. Steadily correct the course of the American ship.

In 1994, he raised interest rates one after another, which was regarded as "simply crazy"; just last month, he calmly challenged the financial crisis and cut interest rates three times quickly, so as to protect the United States from the financial crisis and finally Stop the spread of the crisis.

This time of brilliance has made him called the "God of Finance" by Coal Body. Allen Green insists on anti-inflationism and has the courage to break the shackles of economic theory.According to statistics, among the more than 400 senior executives in the United States, the approval rate for Allen Green is as high as 97%.

"National Watch" magazine said that the economy is like the military. On this battlefield, no one is an omnipotent and invincible god, but Alan Green is the most wise commander. His judgment is more right and less wrong. This is really hard to come by.

Most Americans believe that Allen Green is "the second most influential person in America" ​​after the president.

...

There is a saying among people in the global financial community: "When Allen Green speaks, global investors must prick their ears", "Allen Green sneezes, global investors will catch colds", because of his position. It is too sensitive, which is destined to be the center of various storms.

This old man, who looked thinner than most Americans, responded modestly to everyone's praise, and was able to win everyone's favor.
