Karim was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the other party to be so direct.
Macridge, a legendary trader in spot oil trading and who is being wanted by the U.S. government, has come to join his little-known trading company, which has only been established for more than a year.
"Is Mr.
Richie joking?"
Karim replied with a smile.
"Actually, I'm serious," Markridge said solemnly.
"With all due respect, you are now wanted by the U.S. government, I'm afraid it's not convenient for us to let you join our company" Karim couldn't understand what the other party wanted to do, this guy dared to do anything for the sake of profit, in order to prevent him from having any schemes, Karim instinctively wanted to refuse.
"With all due respect, you're probably not the real owner of this company, so why don't you ask the boss behind you, maybe he'll be interested in me," Markridge continued.
"Why don't you do it yourself, I've heard that your own company has been operating in Switzerland for many years" Karim was not angered by Ritchie's words, but continued to spy on Macridge's true intentions.
"I'm the FBI's most wanted person right now, all of my business is monitored by the U.S. government, and I'm interested in your non-ferrous metals business, and I'm curious where you got so much high-quality and inexpensive aluminum, and I hope I can open up new markets outside of the oil market, and my joining will bring you and your company more customers, a bigger market," Makridge said as he marketed himself to Karim.
"No kidding, we have a business in the United States, and if I hire you, who knows if it will cause government trouble," Karim still refused.
"That's why I'm here to talk to you about this matter, please rest assured, only you and me, and the people behind you know."
Macridge assured Karim.
"You're not sure you want a job," Karim decided to stop going around in circles, he wanted to know what Markridge wanted to do.
"You're smart, what I want is a platform where I can directly make a big splash with the company I currently run, there's still a long way to go to develop into what I envisioned, I'm not young anymore, I don't want to waste the rest of my life on the business and start over the years I did in the business," Markridge said frankly, looking at Karim.
Karim thought for a moment, then said, "Please give us a few minutes, we need to discuss" After saying that, he left his seat, opened the door, and motioned to his attaché to take care of the gentleman inside.
Karim then went to his office and dialed Seryosha's phone.
"Is there anything wrong with my dear," Seryosha asked softly on the phone.
"Seryosha, there's a great guy who wants to join our company," Karim said quickly.
"How powerful is the guy," Seryosha asked with some curiosity.
"Macridge, the spot trader who was recently wanted by the U.S. government, if you're familiar with the oil spot market, will know that he is the one who built this market and grabbed meat from the mouths of the big oil companies and wants to join our company, and I fear he has other plans," Karim voiced his concerns.
"I know this man, he's really powerful, but you have to tell us if we need such a guy into our company," Seryosha asked, asking Karim for advice.
"I'm not sure if I'm coping with the fact that we're dealing with more and more resource products that we're dealing with right now eat up a lot of our cash flow," Karim said.
"Then let him join us, give him the phone, and I'll talk to him personally," Seryosha said immediately.
Karim returned to the room where he had been, knocked on the door, then pushed it open and walked inside.
With a wave of his hand, all the employees in the room walked out.
Then he handed the phone to Macridge and said to him: "Our boss wants to talk to you" Karim placed the satellite phone on the table and walked out of the room, leaving Macridge alone.
He picked up the phone on the table, put it to his ear and said cautiously: "Hello, I'm Macridge, what do you call it?"
"You can call me Nikolai, I heard that you want to join my company," Seryosha replied in a voice made by a voice changer.
"Yes, Mr.
Nikolai, do you have any advice?"
asked Macridge.
"I believe in your abilities, you are welcome to join us, and if you do a good job I can even leave the whole Romanov to you to take care of," Seryosha replied.
Seryosha agreed to Macric's request without hesitation mainly because he had seen a lot of news about this man when he was in the United States, and it is said that during the 1979 oil crisis, Makrich had flown to Iran alone to meet Khomeini, and it was rumored that he could get a phone call from Iran's oil minister at any time, and at his peak his tanker had already handled more than a dozen buyers when he was still at sea.
Because of this, this person will be sent to court by the FBI and CIA together and become one of the top ten wanted criminals in the US government.
Now Macridge never wants to go back to the United States in his life.
"May I ask why you trust me so easily, we haven't met at all" Seryosha's pleasure made Macridge feel uneasy, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Because we are the same kind of people," Seryosha replied.
Hearing this, Macridge felt a little surprised.
But he forced himself not to pay attention to these details for now, and to get down to business first.
So Macridge asked softly: "Mr.
Nikolai, with all due respect, does the Romanov company belong to the Soviet government" "I can tell you unequivocally, no, but we do business with the Soviet government."
Seryosha didn't mind telling Markridge that his goods came from the Soviet Union, because Switzerland was a neutral country and doing business with the Soviet Union was not against Swiss government regulations.
The reason why Macridge asks this is because Romanov's electrolytic aluminum is so cheap, and the supply is still so large, there are not many objects that can be associated with it.
However, Makrich wanted to make a suggestion to Seryosha, so he said: "Mr.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Nikolai, I think that since our company does not belong to the Soviet government, why should we use the name of the Tsarist family to cause misunderstanding, I think you should change it to a name that is not so strongly suggested" "Mark, what do you suggest" Seryosha understood what the other party meant, such an obvious hint is indeed not conducive to the company's expansion in Western countries.
"Glencore, what do you think of the name?"
said Macridge, the name he had used to start his new company. t1706231537:
