The fact that Cole Smith, who Yang Jing incarnates, can sit in this room is enough to explain his current status and identity.There are some things that don't need to be said, smart people can naturally see it very clearly, as for stupid people, as long as they are not the kind of hopelessly stupid idiots who don't know anything, they also understand the status of this middle-aged man who came out with the banner figures of the top ten consortiums.Although this person is very strange, and it is strange to almost everyone on the scene, seeing that he can talk and laugh with those big people who can make the United States shake three times by stomping his feet, it is enough to show the energy of this person.You know, even the president of the United States may not be able to win the favor of some of these people.As veteran tycoons in New York, it is difficult for the Koch brothers to understand why the middle-aged man in his forties in front of them can be favored by those people, but they don't understand that it doesn't matter, the brothers also have a friend who knows this mysterious man.After seeing the mysterious man laughing and parting with the ten big men, Bloomberg quickly greeted him and continued to talk and laugh with the mysterious man, and the Koch brothers knew that the opportunity had come."
Hey, Michael, I just wanted to talk to you about something, this is" Charles Koch is the eldest of the Koch brothers, and he has been fighting in the business field, so it is most suitable for him to come forward.Bloomberg saw the Koch brothers coming over, and hurriedly smiled and said, "Charles, David, hello."
I'd like to introduce you to Mr.
Cole Smith of KY Investment Funds, Cole, this is Charles Koch of Koch Industries, and this is his younger brother David Koch. ”Bloomberg's introduction immediately shocked the Koch brothers, and the two of them immediately realized why the middle-aged man in front of them was standing with those ten big men, this person did have such strength.Charles Koch and David Koch immediately stretched out their hands, and Yang Jing smiled and shook hands with the two New York tycoons, "It's a pleasure to meet you, two Mr.
Koch." ”"Hehe, just call me Charles (David), nice to meet you, Cole."
Yang Jing still knows something about the Koch brothers, the two brothers can be said to be the richest people in New York now and even in the next 20 years, even after 30 years, the brothers' assets are not much worse than Bloomberg.The brothers' Koch Industries Group acquired Georgia-Pacific in 2005, the largest takeover of a public company in the history of the world.With this acquisition, they overtook Cargill to become the world's largest private unlisted company.Thirty years later, if the brothers' assets combined, they could surely become the richest men in the world.Now and in the future, the brothers are among the top tycoons in New York and the nation.Although the two brothers can't be compared to the top ten consortia, they are also very powerful characters.In particular, his younger brother David Koch, like Bloomberg later, was a guy who killed both politics and business.It's just that compared to Bloomberg, who is only obsessed with the mayoral and presidential positions of New York, David Koch can be regarded as a giant in the Republican Party.With the cooperation of their brother Charles Koch, the brothers even dared to manipulate the change of US Secretary of State.The Koch brothers began to get involved in politics in 2003, investing huge sums of money and subtly controlling schools, think tanks, media, and non-profit organizations.In the 2016 presidential election, the Koch brothers spent $2.5 billion, and in 2017, they spent another $20 million to push for a tax reform bill.In November of the same year, the U.S.
Congress will hold midterm elections, one-third of the seats in the Senate and House of Representatives will be renewed, and the Koch brothers will invest $400 million to maintain the Republican majority.The change of U.S. secretary of state on March 19, 2018 is said to have been completed under the control of the brothers.Rex Tillerson, who previously served as the CEO of ExxonMobil, was selected by the president of Twitter in early 2017 to serve as the 69th secretary of state of the United States.On March 19, 2018, President Twitter finally dismissed Tillerson, who had been in the job for just over a year, and replaced him with the current CIA Director Mike Pompeo as Secretary of State.Why is it said that this change of secretary of state is controlled by the Koch brothers, it starts with Pompeo, who succeeded Tillerson as the new US secretary of state.Since they began to get involved in American politics, the Koch brothers have cultivated a large number of politicians in the United States with their deep financial resources, meticulous and perfect planning, and years of training, and CIA Director Pompeo, who succeeded the unlucky ghost Tillerson as Secretary of State, is only the most outstanding representative.In the 2010 midterm elections, Pompeo was elected to the federal parliament with the support of the Koch brothers, and since then he has been known as "the Koch brothers' congressman."
In January 2017, Twitter's presidential nomination was approved by the Senate, and Rep.
Mike Pompeo of Kansas became CIA director.Although the Koch brothers and President Twitter belong to the same Republican Party, they are not a subdivision, and the brothers supported President Twitter to become the president of the United States in the early stage, which is purely "the overall situation is important".However, when it comes to the change of secretary of state, the Koch brothers do not intend to "focus on the big picture" anymore.Although this change of secretary of state is not only a change of president at Twitter, but also the result of a balance of Republican factions, who can believe that there is no hand and foot of the Koch brothers?
After all, it is well known that the new secretary of state is the hardcore younger brother of the Koch brothers.Now the whole world knows the fact that in American politics, the president is nothing more than a clown in the front desk, and the rich + bullish president like Twitter still can't escape the fate of a marionette.Behind this change of secretary of state is one of the most powerful factions of the US Republican Party, the Koch brothers.Although the current Koch brothers have not yet reached into the American political arena, and their current net worth is not as rich as in the future, there is no doubt that the brothers are also potential stocks that can be befriended like Bloomberg.Even though the brothers don't have a good reputation and work in the petrochemical industry, which is one of the top 10 polluting companies in the United States, so what?
In fact, a few days ago, when he had dinner with Mike Ahler and several other high-level executives of the Evil Dragon Fund, he suddenly mentioned the matter of the US presidential election, which made Yang Jing finally start to prepare to set his sights on the American political arena.This time it's the Republican Bush Sr., but the next Zipper or the 2009 O'Black Carbon are both Democrats, and as for Bush Jr. and President Twitter, they are both Republicans, and now they are all potential stocks.Although the president of the United States is a steward in the eyes of a real American man, it is better to befriend the future president than to do nothing, right?
At the very least, that position is globally recognized as the first person in global power.While befriending the future president of the United States, Yang Jing definitely does not mind making friends with some big names with greater energy, such as the core figures of the top ten American conglomerates, such as future political stars.In this country where capital is king, as long as the Evil Dragon Fund always maintains a strong state, then many big people don't need him to deliberately make friends, but they will feel themselves, this is the charm of money.It's like today, if he doesn't reveal that he is the boss of the KY Investment Fund, or if the KY Investment Fund does not show such strong financial strength in the stock market crash, will he Yang Jing be invited by those ten people to enter the cigar house to smoke cigars?
Did these two top New York tycoons come back and take the initiative to make friends with themselves?
Since you feel yourself, then we will take it all.The tycoons of this era are really very energetic, those who are the richest people in the world in the Internet era or the billionaires with a net worth of tens of billions of dollars, that is, the high point of personal net worth, the energy of these people in the United States is far less than that of those who have become tycoons now.Whether it is Bill Gates, or Jeff Bezos, or Larry Ellison, Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Page, these billionaires or even billionaires created by the Internet era are very rich on the surface, but in fact, those real tycoons really don't take these people seriously.Why?
Quite simply, these people have an unusually rich personal net worth, but they don't now have the foundation of the consortium - the bank!
If you want to build a century-old consortium or family, and if you want to truly gain a firm foothold in this country where capital is king, and become a generation of tycoons, then he must have a bank with sufficient strength as the core.Even Yang Jing plans to play the game of acquiring banks from next year.If the dragon fund wants to develop, it must have its own core bank, and if there is no core bank, even if the dragon fund's own capital exceeds one trillion dollars, it will be rootless duckweed.Yang Jing, who is familiar with the history of the next 30 years, is naturally very aware of the core position of the bank in a consortium.Therefore, in order to develop the Dragon Fund into a large enough consortium, core banks are indispensable.Yang Jing knows very well that in the next few years, it will be a period of frequent bank mergers and acquisitions in the United States, not to mention that only next year, that is, in 1988, there will be eight bank mergers and acquisitions in the United States.For example, the Shawmart Company under the name of the Boston consortium acquired the Hartford German Civil Company and the Arlington Trust respectively in the next year, and finally formed the Boston National Shore Bank.In addition, First Bank System acquired the Central Bank of Denver, which was renamed First Bank System after the merger; Wells Fargo's acquisition of Barclays Bank of California; Pacific Securities' acquisition of the Bank of Ireland; Swiss Trust acquired First Boston Company, which was renamed Swiss Trust First Boston after the merger; National Bank of North Carolina acquires First Republic Bank.These are all bank mergers and acquisitions that will happen next year, and the amount of mergers and acquisitions is not very large, for the evil dragon fund that now has a lot of money, even if it robs four of these banks next year, it will only be more than 20 billion US dollars.The Evil Dragon Fund has nothing else now, but money!
As long as we can grab the four banks that have been acquired next year, then by the 90s in the mergers and acquisitions of some banks, then in less than ten years, a large bank that is not inferior to or Chase Manhattan Bank will be produced, then the evil dragon fund with this bank as the core will have a core business, and a rising evil dragon consortium or dragon consortium is just around the corner!
