Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
In the evening, California Governor Jerry Brown hosted Jiang Chen at the Governor ’s Mansion. At the same time, Warner Bros. Vice President Richard Fox and Los Angeles celebrities were invited.
Jiang Chen naturally became the center of the banquet for the richest man in the world, the richest man in the Forbes list. Those two pairs of eyes cast on him with envy, or glance, or jealousy, or friendliness. Many entrepreneurs who want to climb the big tree of Futurian Group can be said to have cut their heads and want to squeeze in front of him to have a familiar face and climb as they like.
Jiang Chen never thought that he would set foot on the United States in such a gesture, but when this day came, he did not feel too many surprises.
"Welcome to the United States, Mr. Jiang Chen, this is a paradise for the rich, you will love it." Mr. Fox smiled and lifted champagne, gently clinking glasses with Jiang Chen.
Mr. Fox, one of the shareholders, is quite looking forward to the "Time Iron Curtain" jointly shot by Warner Bros. and the world's only large VR modeling company-virtual image animation. Now the shooting has entered the final stage, and it can be put on the screen at the latest in January next year.
Regarding this powerful next-generation film and television work, major movie critic websites have given quite optimistic predictions. After all, it is the world's first film based on VR technology. Even if it is for this freshness, there is no reason for the box office to be low.
"If you are referring to Mr. Brown's banquet." Jiang Chen smiled and sipped away the champagne in his glass.
At this time, Mr. Governor and a middle-aged man in a suit came to this side.
Brown with shaved head smiled and asked Jiang Chen: "How about, are the drinks satisfactory?"
"Very satisfied, thank you for your hospitality." Jiang Chen replied politely.
"Haha, thank you for your compliment. Allow me to introduce, this is Andy Chiannini, the sponsor of this banquet." Brown smiled and introduced Jiang Chen to the person standing next to him A middle-aged man, "Chairman of Bank of America, and a major shareholder of Safe Pacific."
“It ’s too boring to write business on a business card. I prefer others to call me a golf player.” Andy grinned, his eyes wide, and he extended his hand to Jiang Chen. Mr. Chen. "
Jiang Chen noticed that Mr. Fox, a shareholder of Warner Bros., was quite cautious when he saw this.
"Good luck, Mr. Chiannini." Jiang Chen took his hand.
Honestly, this surname is really a bit of a mouthful. For the first time, he almost bit his tongue.
Jiang Chen is no stranger to the surname Chianini.
After all, it represents the group of futuristic people. Before coming to the United States, he did his homework.
The Bank of America can be said to be the financial core of the California Consortium. Its predecessor was the descendant of Italian immigrants. P. The Italian bank founded by Chiannini in the early 20th century. The man standing in front of him is one of the real powers in America. In this country dominated by Wall Street, capitalists are the core of power. Although the status of the California Consortium is slightly inferior to that of the Eastern Consortium, the wealth accumulated over the past 100 years is still not to be underestimated.
Many people know that Los Angeles, California is rich in American blockbuster, but few people know that California is also the largest arms production base in the United States. Including the famous Lockheed Aircraft Company and Northrop Grumman Company, the nation's first and second largest arms company are all from this family. Although the shares were also diluted a lot by the Eastern Consortium, the status of its military overlord is still unshakable.
To hold such a banquet, it is certainly not possible to withdraw money from the state government's treasury. If nothing else, let's just say that the champagne on this table is a famous wine from an Italian winery. Drinks alone cost more than hundreds of thousands of dollars. If reporters are told that the governor is holding taxpayer money to open a party, I am afraid that the media will have a collective upsurge the next day.
However, the Chiannini family paid for it, which also shows that the governor has a strong relationship with the California consortium.
It can even be said that the party itself was held under the guidance of this great man.
The topic between the two is easy, and there is hardly any talk about business. This Mr. Chiannini seems to be quite interested in golf. When Jiang Chen mentioned that he had a golf course at the foot of Mount Fuji, his eyes lighted up and said with a smile.
"Dare to take the bargain when the Tokyo City explosion is happening, Mr. Jiang is really courageous. If I have the opportunity to go to Tokyo, I must go to your golf course to see it."
That is to say, Jiang Chen didn't believe that it was only him who divided Japanese assets. The consortium on the west coast of the United States has always been interested in East Asian affairs, and it is impossible to let this opportunity pass. Although there are elements of gambling in it, what is the value of 12 billion yuan for such a consortium?
"Haha, please be sure to enjoy the light." Jiang Chen smiled and politely said.
The greeting lasted for about ten minutes. The governor and Mr. Fox retired one after another, and joined other circles with champagne, and this Mr. Chiannini finally talked about the topic.
"I heard ... Mr. Jiang has some friction with Freemasonry? I do n’t know if it is true or not?"
After asking this sentence, Chiannini seemed to feel it was inappropriate to ask it directly, so he added a sentence.
"Of course, I do n’t mean to be offensive. Our ancestors came from Italy. Although the Chiannini family is no longer in the WASP faction, we also have reservations about the Jews."
"Of course there is friction, and it's not small. If Mr. Chiannini watches the news, he will definitely not understand it." Jiang Chen smiled.
Chiannini smiled and said nothing.
Of course he has read the news, and he ca n’t not understand such a well-known thing. It's just that listening to the person's own words has a completely different meaning compared to hearsay. Because the industry is mostly distributed on the west coast, the Chiannini family is far from Washington, the economic and political center of the United States. From the perspective of the consortium on the east coast, they are more like a "local rich" than a well-matched opponent.
This is also the reason for the decline of the California consortium, which is now almost at the end of the top ten consortiums in the United States. If it were n’t for holding the behemoth Bank of America, the Texas consortium that emerged after World War II would even be on par with them.
This sense of alienation away from the mainstream world makes the Chiannini family quite restless. This is why they are keen to invest in Asia. If they cannot go east, they must at least find a way out in the west.
The friction between Future Group and Freemasonry gave them opportunities.
If the Freemasonry collapses, the Masonic consortium headed by Goldman Sachs will face liquidation, and the situation of Wall Street ’s dichotomy will be completely broken. This will undoubtedly be a rare opportunity for the West Coast consortium away from the power center.
Of course, all this is based on the premise that the Future Group will eventually win.
Andy Chiannini is sure that he has n’t looked away. With his eyes, he thinks he deserves to bet on this young man. (To be continued.)
