Chapter 1084: The benefits of being kind

When the motorcade entered the vicinity of Broadway on 39th Street in Manhattan, you could see the densely packed New Yorkers on both sides of the street.

Then every meter on the street, there is a policing New York police officer.

There are also dozens of reporters who are standing in front of the cameras, reporting the scene live for the audience in front of the TV.

When they found out that the teams that just appeared were all identical Rolls-Royces, the reporters present were the first to react.

Li Changheng and Annie must be here.

After all, it was Li Changheng who, for his own safety, came up with more exaggerated and stricter security measures than when Philip was traveling.

The reporters, who understood this, quickly signaled the camera to face the team.

Afterwards, the citizens on both sides of the street heard dozens of reporters shouting the arrival of the Lord, and bursts of cheers and shouting of Li Changheng and Annie's names resounded throughout the street.

Seeing Annie shaking his hand, Li Changheng quickly understood what Annie meant.

Thinking about today's security level and the security staff of more than 400 people, Li Changheng smiled and pulled the curtains of the car.

Sitting in the car, through the window that can at least prevent pistol shooting at close range, I wave to the New Yorkers watching the lively around.

When the people on both sides of the street saw the figures of Li Changheng and Annie, the cheers suddenly increased by more than ten decibels.

If it weren't for the lack of manpower for the police to maintain law and order today, maybe someone would have rushed out of the isolation iron fence and rushed to the vicinity of the motorcade.

However, this time Li Changheng does not need to donate money to the Manhattan Police Department, thanking them for sending more than 1,000 police officers to maintain law and order.

It was just a phone call to Inspector McKenna uptown.

No, McKenna, who was let go by Li Changheng, was promoted to the chief of the Shangcheng District Police Department in less than three years.

After receiving a call from Li Changheng, McKenna excitedly assured that at the premiere, at least 1,000 police officers across Manhattan would be dispatched to cordon off 39th and 40th Streets where Broadway is located, maintain law and order, and be in charge of peripheral security.

Li Changheng thanked him very satisfied, and turned off the phone without mentioning any payment.

McKenna not only did not have any dissatisfaction about this, but was delighted to find four confidants, and asked them to tell the people below about it, and at the same time, he personally called the directors of Midtown and Lower Town.

As for the police in Midtown and Xiacheng, after hearing this, few people were dissatisfied.

Not many people even complained. At least half of the police in the three police stations volunteered to participate in the duty of attendance on the day of the premiere.

The reason is very simple and very real.

Before Li Changheng took a stake in Citi in 1973, there was a vicious shooting of a police officer in the upper city on the night he attended a family reunion held by Tyler Garnell.

Not to mention the specific content, the result is that McKenna and his boss, and even the boss's boss, were all caught by Li Changheng.

He would not foolishly use these levers to blackmail the Manhattan police and the bigwigs in the police industry.

Because doing so will only lead to that group of people hating themselves and thinking all the time about how to get out of their grip on them.

Of course, when it's really necessary, it's still a threat. If it's time to force the Manhattan police to help him deal with trouble, Li Changheng will not hesitate or soften.

But since that special period hasn't arrived, Li Changheng's methods are much gentler.

There's even a fund set up at Citi that only accepts money from cops in the Manhattan Police Department.

In the past two and a half years, this fund with a total financial scale of 100 million US dollars has always achieved an annual profit of more than 20%.

In other words, the fund did not accept all the police funds in Manhattan. After all, if it did, the police would feel that it was right for Li Changheng to help him make money.

Second, the police who bought the fund management project are equal to an extra 20% of their income every year.

This amount of money may seem small, but it can definitely improve the lives of most police officers.

And the 20% annual return lasted for almost three years, which is one of the best on Wall Street.

Let that group of profit-making New York cops want Li Changheng to have an accident, so that they can get 20% of the income every year.

For Li Changheng, a fund of 100 million US dollars, with an annual profit of 20 million, only needs to keep speculating on soybean and corn futures.

The reason is very simple. From the outbreak of the oil crisis, the United States will fall into a ten-year stagflation period.

Money is worthless, and of course things will go up in price.

Of course, the specific operation is not so easy, there are many pits.

But Li Changheng doesn't need to stare at the grain output of the United States, and he can focus on the entire America, and he can avoid the traps set by several trusts that control grain in the United States.

After two years of success, Citigroup established an investment group specializing in soybean and corn futures in 1975 after obtaining the consent of Li Changheng.

Moreover, the benefits of Li Changheng's control of the dea soon became apparent.

The countries with the highest corn production in the Americas are the United States and Mexico.

If the food trust in the United States dares to pit him.

Li Changheng only needs to instruct dea to increase or decrease the crackdown on flour merchants in Mexico and Colombia to adjust the corn production in South American countries.

The most direct example is that when dea stepped up its crackdown on Cali and Medellin, many people in Mexico set fire to their corn fields and turned to planting flour and special tobacco.

Although the specific disappearance of food share may only be 5%, or even 1%.

But futures play with leverage, and even a 5% price fluctuation is enough to cause market unease, causing many companies and countries with legitimate food needs to compete for spot contracts of the year in the futures market.

Casually let the fund reap more than 10%, 20% of the income.

If the grain trusts in the U.S. were honest, Li Changheng wouldn't be against them all the time, but he wouldn't let them go easily.

Turn around to speculate on the stocks of these trusts, and while these trusts **** the hard-earned money of farmers, Li Changheng is attached to these trusts and **** their blood.

And it also made the group of guys helpless, and even in order to make a fortune together, they had to beg Li Changheng not to suddenly jump out and make trouble at a critical moment.

------

Since Li Changheng is to a certain extent ~lightnovelpub.net~ already the financial sponsor of thousands of police officers in Manhattan, his words are definitely more useful than those of all the bigwigs in the New York police system.

Only then did thousands of people in the upper, middle and lower Manhattan districts easily mobilize thousands of police officers to **** the film premiere.

The convoy quickly came to the outside of the Metropolitan Theater, and before they got off the car, Tyler Garnell of Citi, with a dozen Citi employees, walked quickly to the side of the car and opened the car door for Li Changheng and Annie in person.

"Good evening, boss, good evening, Your Highness."

Li Changheng got out of the car first, and then helped Annie to get out of the car. In an instant, he heard countless people nearby calling his and Annie's names.

The two waved to the surroundings, attracting even more cheers.

Only then did Li Changheng look at Taylor and tease in a relaxed tone, "What do you need me to do?"
