America’s Big Hero

Chapter 367: ADM's Favor

​​

In the room, old man David was talking to a young man with brown hair, sword eyebrows and a square face.

​​

The sound of Fifth Grandpa at the door made the young man's face flicker strangely.

​​

Before waiting for any reaction from the two people in the room, Sean pushed the door open and walked in carelessly.

​​

As soon as he raised his head, his eyes were on the young man's. Sean was stunned for a moment, then blinked to take a closer look, Richard Rockefeller!

​​

Richard Rockefeller was born in 1949, the son of old man David, dear.

​​

The two have never met before, but Sean has seen the photos many times.

​​

In other words, God has been dating for a long time!

​​

"Brother Richard is here too!" Sean called out without giving old David a chance to open his mouth.

​​

Old man David: ? ? ?

​​

Richard: ! !

​​

While talking, he walked over and put the things in his hand on the table of old man David. Only then did he open his arms and give a big hug under Richard's dull eyes.

​​

Richard couldn't react at all. He didn't know how to deal with it. He stretched his arms stiffly, neither hugging nor pushing away. He could only look at old man David for help.

​​

Old man David is so angry, why are you looking at me?

​​

You beat him!

​​

"Damn it, stinky boy, you should be called Uncle!" Old man David's nostrils got big.

​​

With just such a sentence and a hug, old man David had to admit that his son was far worse than Sean.

​​

Not to mention tolerance, just because the ability to respond is not as good, people can't let go.

​​

"It's all the same, it's all the same." Sean said with a smile, wrapping his arms around Richard's shoulders, "I always wanted to meet Richard, but I always missed it. Today's opportunity is just right, let's have dinner together later. "

​​

Richard: Are we familiar with each other?

​​

"Everything is the same!" Old man David snorted heavily.

​​

"Everyone is young, we are only 7 years apart, and everything is according to the rules. When I shout, I don't know if Richard is a few decades old, and it makes everyone old. "Speaking, Sean turned to look at Richard, his arms were still tight, "Right."

​​

Richard tilted his head to look at the hand on his shoulder, and then looked at Sean with a helpless expression, "Okay."

​​

To tell the truth, it does feel a little awkward to let a super rich man who drives a battleship across the world and is arrogant in the world call his uncle.

​​

It's not that Richard's identity is unbearable, but his psychology.

​​

Psychologically, the entire Rockefeller family, even if they didn't say it, couldn't help but admire Sean.

​​

This is an illegitimate child. He really worked hard with his bare hands, and their conditions are so good, let alone their achievements, they can't even see the taillights of the car.

​​

The gap between the two sides is too big, and the big one makes this group of people feel a little ashamed.

​​

This made Richard face Sean, and he was mentally crushed.

​​

Old man David rolled his eyes. It's not because he didn't want to push his son to the top. What's more, you're not good enough.

​​

Thinking about it, I didn't just force Sean to call him uncle. It was useless to force him. Even if he shouted in front of him, he left the room, what should he do, what should he do.

​​

"Sean, I warn you, don't bring Richard down." Old man David could only say so.

​​

"Grandpa Fifth, it sounds like I'm some kind of bad guy." Sean rolled his eyes.

​​

"Oh, you know what you are like!" Old man David sneered.

​​

"What's good about being too honest." Sean whispered.

​​

"Do you think everyone is like you!" David yelled angrily.

​​

"Okay, don't be angry." Sean quickly pressed his hands down.

​​

I don't blame old man David for being angry. Even if his son can't do anything to support the family business, he can't be a fool.

​​

As he said, not everyone can start out with the mafia like Sean, but Sean never gets poisoned and kills a lot of people, but Sean's character is not perverted and bloodthirsty, surrounded by women, but not Addicted to wine.

​​

There is no good person around, and I have done so many bad things, but I can always keep my head clear without being affected by the environment.

​​

This requires great self-control.

​​

Of course, this is not the credit of American education.

​​

David knew his son, if thrown into such an environment, he would definitely learn badly, eat, drink, prostitute, gamble and smoke, and then it would be completely over.

​​

Richard tilted his head slightly, watching Sean chatting with his father, with real envy and admiration in his heart.

​​

Even his son can't do it so casually. Dad's halo is too powerful. As the small group of people with the most power in this world, they are like emperors, and not everyone can let them go.

​​

Anyway, there's no need for him not to come to see his father.

​​

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, what's wrong with running so diligently?" Old man David glared at Sean and said angrily.

​​

"I want to buy some banks, but I don't have so much time to waste negotiating, and I don't want to waste money on it." Sean sat down on the sofa, looked up at Richard who was standing, and smiled. He reached out and patted the side, "Sit."

​​

Richard sat down subconsciously.

​​

Old man David glared at his son, you are the master!

​​

This number is completely useless.

​​

"How much are some?" Old man David immediately grasped the point.

​​

"Twenty." Sean laughed happily.

​​

"What are you going to do?" Old man David asked with narrowed eyes.

​​

Richard looked at Sean in astonishment, buying 20 banks? Go crazy!

​​

"I have taken a fancy to the depositor resources in the hands of those local banks. There is a good deal that I want to promote. It is too troublesome and a waste of time to attract customers by myself."

​​

"How much money did you spend on this?"

​​

"1.5 billion!"

​​

Old man David rolled his eyes, and the idiots from HSBC said, "In theory, the money is enough, but it is difficult. The shares of these banks are very chaotic, very chaotic, and they can't be acquired simply by spending money, do you understand?"

​​

"How to say?"

​​

"Many local banks have special reasons for their survival. They are not only responsible for the bank, but also a platform for local forces to trade. There are too many things in it that cannot be dig deep, and some simply There is a huge deficit."

​​

Sean raised his brows, and when David said that, he understood.

​​

Corruption, bribery, collusion between officials and businessmen, political transactions, and money!

​​

A batch of chaotic accounts, as long as the account is checked during the acquisition process, it will inevitably be a thunderstorm.

​​

So, even if Sean throws money, people don't dare to transfer it.

​​

What's more, Sean is still a media tycoon, and if you send the handle, the sheep will come into the tiger's mouth!

​​

"I have to have clients, what should I do?" Sean frowned.

​​

Old man David shook his head, "It's hard, I don't know what you're going to do, but most of the local banks have this kind of problem. If you must buy, it's better to be some medium-sized banks, the possibility is higher. ."

​​

"Fully owned!"

​​

"You still want to complete the integration?"

​​

"Yes."

​​

Old man David shook his head directly, "Give it up, it's impossible."

​​

Sean's brows also wrinkled, and he didn't speak for a long time, "Accept as many as you can, and spread it out as much as possible. Damn it, if it doesn't work, I will promote it myself!"

​​

Seeing Sean's insistence, the old man David shook his head, "Give me the list, and I'll help you communicate."

​​

Sean took out a list from his pocket and handed it over. Old man David glanced at it and put it aside. There is no rush.

​​

This is where things come to an end.

​​

As for the acquisition, it was too difficult for Sean to run by himself. It was like his own bank, and there were a lot of dirty things, so he didn't dare to find out for outsiders.

​​

Old man David came forward, coordinated from a higher level, and promised some things, such as helping to settle accounts, not pursuing, etc. The effect was much better than that of Sean, who had no friendship with him.

​​

"That's all right, I'm going to trouble Fifth Grandpa, so I'll leave." Sean stood up with a smile, and beckoned to Richard next to him, "Let's go."

​​

Richard glanced at Lao Tzu and acquiesced to the old man before standing up.

​​

When walking out, Sean suddenly turned to look at old David, "Hurry up, time, time, even if you spend a little more money."

​​

"Fuck off!" Old man David scolded angrily, begging for so many **** things.

​​

Sean smiled and left.

​​

After exiting Rockefeller Center and getting in the car, Richard didn't know why, his heart beat a little faster, and he always felt that the door to the new world was about to open, "Where are you going?"

​​

"Have you been to the Peace Hotel?" Sean asked with a smile.

​​

Richard nodded, the best entertainment venue in the New York area has everything.

​​

"Have you played everything you should?" Sean raised his eyebrows, and a meaningful arc hung on the corners of his mouth.

​​

Cough, cough, cough... Richard coughed for a while, and his face turned red unconsciously.

​​

He couldn't bear to say something so exciting when they first met.

​​

He has also been to the upper floors of the Peace Hotel. I won't talk about what the emperor enjoys. The top two floors are script guns and grassland hunting grounds. Good guy, that's too exciting!

​​

You can meet people of any age and status, and occasionally meet people you know, embarrassed and polite to have a friendship gun...

​​

Seeing Richard like this, Sean understood everything, hahaha and laughed.

​​

"Let's go for a walk, just go to the Peace Hotel. You're only playing basic services. I'll give you a VIP." Sean said with a wink.

​​

"Cough, cough, and VIP?" Richard was completely stupid. The ordinary service was so exciting. What kind of treatment did the VIP get?

​​

"I don't know, hehe." Sean smiled meaningfully, "VIP provides customized services, you can customize any scene, script, or special requirements you like, and if you find a suitable one, you will also provide it in advance. You inform."

​​

Talking and laughing, with Sean's intention, the two quickly became familiar with each other. They were the same age, and they could easily play together.

All the way to the Peace Hotel, Sean didn't need such a cumbersome security check, the person in charge here came to receive it in person.

​​

"Remember him, open a VIP service, and be careful not to let those unclean people touch him, understand."

​​

"Good boss." The person in charge glanced at Richard.

​​

"You are sure to understand that if he learns badly here, such as coming into contact with poisonous, infected with some kind of disease, or being calculated by someone with ulterior motives, I will throw you into the sea to feed the sharks." Sean Glancing at the person in charge.

​​

"Ah, oh, you must remember." The person in charge twitched the corners of his mouth.

​​

They are the most unwilling to accept this kind of person. This is not a VIP, this is an ancestor.

​​

After waving his hand to tell the person in charge to get out of the way, Sean smiled and looked at Richard, who had a sullen face, and said, "It's not that I'm strict, your old man won't let me hurt you, but I don't dare to let you have a problem."

​​

Richard gave a wry smile, "Is it that serious?"

​​

"Is it so serious?" Sean's voice suddenly increased, looking at Richard up and down, "That's too much!"

​​

"I have high fees here, which naturally attracts a large number of rich and powerful people. At the same time, it also attracts a lot of bad guys. They are here all the year round, and they specialize in those rich and powerful people."

​​

"Ah?" Richard looked incredulous, "Isn't the security check here very strict?"

​​

"It sucks, sometimes a mouth is enough." Sean raised his eyebrows, "For example, some women, professional fishing for Kaizi and opening fish ponds, I remember at most one time, a woman was dealing with 18 men at the same time, Mom. Yes, that means, no matter whether you are in the beginning of love or have experienced the vicissitudes of life, she has a way to charm you and make you give her money!"

​​

"Of course, some will carefully select a target, and in the end, the wife and son of the other party who have mixed up will be separated, and then they will take up the position and find a long-term meal ticket."

​​

Richard was stunned, as if he was listening to a book from heaven. He couldn't imagine what kind of woman this was.

​​

"Don't challenge other people's profession, that's their profession."

​​

"It's normal for your old man to be afraid that you will learn badly. I have all kinds of bad guys here, those who deceive feelings and those who cheat. Once they are targeted by those people, there is nothing to do." Sean smiled and looked at Richard , "But don't worry, when you come over in the future, someone will follow you all the way, and those professional liars naturally dare not approach you unless they want to die."

​​

"Since you know they are professional liars, why didn't you drive them away?" Richard looked puzzled.

​​

"Why do you want to drive away? These people are quite useful sometimes." Sean raised his eyebrows and suddenly pointed in one direction. The author was a man who looked young and handsome. There was a woman across from him. At first glance, they are not young, but the two are like glue, and the air is full of sweet and greasy smell.

​​

"For example, if you ask them to attack the wife of a certain target person, they can get a lot of things they want."

​​

"Fake!" Richard's eyes almost popped out. Dad was right. He would learn from Sean. Look, how long has it been, and he has seen something.

​​

Seeing Richard like this, Sean laughed out loud. These noble disciples are still too young, how can they understand the dangers of the rivers and lakes.

​​

Sean knew what the old man David meant, and he brought Richard to gain insight.

​​

"Stay with me for a while longer, and I'll have someone specially show you what the real world is. It's much more interesting than flying a plane." Sean patted Richard on the shoulder.

​​

At this point, Richard opened the door to a new world.

​​

…

​​

Richard was arranged, and Sean stayed with him all afternoon.

​​

The next day, the Monroe team was brought over again, and he repeated the words of old man David, "Our plan needs to be changed, and the main market still needs to be opened by ourselves."

​​

It's not that Sean has no means, just trouble.

​​

Two-pronged approach, while waiting for old man David to help acquire a medium-sized bank, while planning to promote it.

​​

"As long as you're willing to spend money, it's not that difficult to attract depositors, at least it's not difficult to open a card." Sean took out some promotion methods in later generations, "Hiring a large number of pushers, free cards and gifts, as long as Open the card, deposit $100, and I'll give you 50!"

​​

"Send $50, what's the joke?" Monroe almost jumped up, "Boss, we need to attract a large number of depositors, but these depositors must be of quality, not everyone is eligible to get a credit card, those strays Han and **** don't qualify, $50 is going to attract a lot of people, but we don't need homeless people!"

​​

"One million homeless people and nothing will be left but cost us $50 million."

​​

"$100 is not a threshold at all. I know them. They just saved $100, took the gift, turned around and pulled the money out, and then handed it over to the next person to deposit!"

​​

Sean narrowed his eyes, this is indeed a problem, Laomei is not in the east, there are not so many **** in the east, even the poorest shanty towns in the city are self-reliant, "Then limit it, first Can't withdraw money for a month."

​​

"Change $50 into a life gift package, but it's not really worth $50. What kind of toilet paper, water cup, shampoo, shower gel, vegetable oil, I specially find a manufacturer to order a batch of special supplies and then make a gift package, get a card and send it, let They come in empty-handed and go out big and small!"

​​

"The location of the ground push has been changed to major local companies, government departments, and the vicinity of shopping malls, targeting these people."

​​

"It's definitely not realistic to completely eliminate those homeless people, but there is nothing wrong with using these things to attract customers."

​​

"According to the specific situation in different places, you can understand what I mean, don't count on me for everything!" Sean cursed.

​​

"Of course, of course." Monroe quickly agreed, the conditions were already very good.

​​

As long as he is willing to spend money, even if an effective customer is $30, Monroe feels that it is valuable. One hundred million 3 million depositors, 1 billion is 30 million...

​​

Cough cough.

​​

After the development route is decided, Sean doesn't care. The rest of the site selection and promotion are the business team's business, he just needs to come up with an idea.

​​

This is not something that can be done in a short period of time.

​​

Things are progressing steadily, first of all, the East Coast is moving, New York, Portland, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Washington, Atlanta, Orlando, Miami, Houston…

​​

More than 5,000 people in 60 stores in more than 10 cities opened at the same time, and the staff spread out, and began to attract people to apply for cards. New Century Media helped to promote it. The incident was tracked and reported by all parties.

​​

As for the effect, let's be so-so, neither disappointment nor satisfaction.

​​

During this period, the uproar of the YL incident finally came to an end, and Weinberg, the defense minister, took all the responsibilities and stepped down.

​​

Sean went to the door immediately, and Weinberg became the business consultant of New Century Media naturally.

​​

The two sides agreed that, after avoiding the limelight, a separate show would be held for Weinberg to analyze various policy matters.

​​

Fortunately, luck came, and there was good news from old David. He persuaded a medium-sized bank with its main business scope in the Gulf Coast, Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, and surrounding Texas. And Oklahoma is somewhat of a business.

​​

Wuzhou, more than 300 branches, more than 4,000 employees, has 4.8 million depositors, and the asking price is 346 million US dollars.

​​

"No problem, I want it!" Sean took it without any hesitation.

​​

"Ha, rich and self-willed!" Old man David sneered. He still learned this from Sean.

​​

"Yes, rich and self-willed!" Sean laughed, the price was cheaper than expected.

​​

"Don't worry, it's not unconditional." Old man David made Sean happy for a while, and then suddenly said.

​​

"Ah?" Sean was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What conditions? Who proposed conditions?"

​​

"Archer

​​

Daniels

​​

. "

​​

"ADM? What do they have to do with banking?"

​​

"Nonsense, the four major grain merchants have business all over the world, and there are many banks that cooperate with them. This bank is also within their sphere of influence. What's the problem? The southern animal husbandry and planting industries are very developed, idiots!"

​​

Sean spread his hands, he was ignorant.

​​

It can only be said that not only does he want to start a bank when he grows, but also other industries, his background in the banking industry is really deep.

​​

"Well, what conditions do they have, I remember that I still owe ADM a favor."

​​

"Do you know about phosphate rock?" asked old man David.

​​

"Phosphorus, you know, NPK, I also graduated with a nine-year obligation!" Sean teased, "What's the matter."

​​

"The development of agriculture requires chemical fertilizers. Nitrogen fertilizers are synthetic, and potash mines have a wide range of divisions, while phosphate mines are on the contrary. The distribution is very uneven. Whoever controls the phosphate mines will control the fertilizer market, and whoever controls the world's people throat." Old man David said in a low voice.

​​

Sean's expression suddenly became solemn, UU reading www. uukanshu. com "Tell me carefully."

​​

"The world's major phosphate mining areas are the first in Africa, accounting for 90% of the reserves, and the second in the Middle East."

​​

"In North America, our reserves are about 1 billion tons, Brazil is about 1.6 billion tons, and other regions have no reserves."

​​

"Ah?" Sean's expression was a little weird, "Africa, a place where there is no food to eat, has so much reserves. The second is the Middle East, which is also a dry and non-grain-producing region. This world is really interesting!"

​​

"What do they want me to do?"

​​

"Go to Africa." David took a map and pointed to the northwest of Africa. "In Morocco, Western Sahara and Algeria, 90% of the world's phosphate mines are here."

​​

Sean looked over and looked like a smile on his face, "My dear, I also said that Morocco is next to Spain, and there is a Strait of Gibraltar in the middle. How can it be so poor."

​​

"So it's because there are treasures underground!"

​​

"Hahaha."

​​

"Okay, nothing is wrong, but a bankrupt bank can't tell me."

​​

"Of course, they will send someone to talk to you."

​​

"Okay, let them come, I'll wait for them in Newark."

​​

​​
