Chapter 963: Bad things turn good

If West Germany is interested in oil fields, Li Changheng has reasons and qualifications to force England to compromise on the banking and insurance industries.

This is a good thing for him, and it is also a good thing for Citigroup.

As the chairman of the board of directors, Ellen Gay, and President Payne, who is the shareholder representative of Boyin in Citigroup, couldn't think of any reason to reject Li Changheng's proposal.

Moreover, the two also understood that even if this was on the board of directors, the shareholders would have no reason to object.

On the contrary, everyone understood Li Changheng's careful thinking, but could only watch him helplessly, and sent Taylor to negotiate with West Germany secretly.

Alan Guy Guy is probably not far from retirement. In order to live and be less boring after retirement, he thinks of being hired by Citi as an adviser to Li Changheng, the new chairman of the board of directors after retirement.

Then I reminded him, "Henry, I think you should first use oil fields or other assets to borrow 400 million US dollars from Citi to buy that 2.5% of the shares.

Otherwise, after the news spreads, most shareholders will continue to persuade you to abandon the sale of the oil field and instead use the oil field to force England to agree to your plan.

When this news spreads, Citi's market value may exceed 16 billion U.S. dollars the next day. "

After listening to Li Changheng, he cursed in his heart.

This is not impossible, but it will definitely be true.

For a short period of mental calculations, even if cross-border settlements and loans, as well as insurance policy business, can bring Citigroup at least tens of millions of dollars in benefits every year.

The money is not too much, but the impact on the market value is definitely far more than the impact of 100 million U.S. dollars.

Because stockholders are blind, and investment institutions use stockholders as leeks. Seeing that it is profitable, Wall Street will not let go of the opportunity to pull more leeks off the market.

The reason is also very simple. In the past, there was a net profit of 300 million US dollars in the island country, and then there was a profitable business in England.

Such a strong performance, the effect of a little publicity, is that investors' pursuit of Citigroup will go further.

Once the entire market is sought after, the market value will rise like a balloon.

Citi's shareholders will never let go of this opportunity. The stock price has risen, and there are ways to lower it.

Besides, the performance is not cheating, just release a big plan that has not yet been determined, and investors can calm down.

Therefore, even if Citigroup shareholders compensate Li Changheng in pain, they will certainly beg Li Changheng to give up the oil field sales.

In case the lobbying fails, the shareholders of 80.5% of the shares will work together to force him to compromise.

Of course, the methods are not fierce, after all, Li Changheng is everyone's gold master, but there will be countless people who will annoy him all day long.

Thinking of this, Li Changheng sighed helplessly, but since he couldn't provoke the anger of the public, he didn't have a chance to make a profit.

Since we want to talk, let's talk.

Anyway, I had no intention of selling oil fields.

The gaze kept changing on the faces of Alan and Payne, until the two of them dodged their gazes.

Li Changheng said with a smile, "Anything can be discussed, but I can't harm my own interests and help other shareholders of Citigroup profit.

Moreover, no one should dare to unite and persecute me now, right! "

"Of course, of course."

Payne nodded hurriedly, "I will take the initiative to contact the shareholders to ensure that at least you won't suffer."

Not to mention the gangsters that Li Changheng has dealt with over the years, just a few days ago, when he rescued Sean Hirst, no one in the upper class in the United States would take the initiative to offend him.

More wealthy people want to know him instead.

Even Payne, the president of Boyin, is looking forward to rumors that he and Li Changheng have an excellent relationship.

On the one hand, it is business considerations, on the other hand, if the underground forces target him in the future, they will have to worry about whether Li Changheng will intervene.

Li Changheng nodded in satisfaction and looked at Andre Rockefeller.

Seeing Andre shrugged, "I'm the third-generation heir. Although you and Citigroup signed the contract, I don't know all about it.

But I still know about 6 opportunities to buy 2.5% shares.

Even if my father promised you, even if he gave you the seventh chance to buy, I knew the verbal promise that you would hold more than 33.33% of Citigroup's shares.

But rest assured, my mouth is always very strict. "

Li Changheng couldn't help rolling his eyes, but fortunately, he had already gotten aboard the boat. As long as this guy wasn't stupid, he wouldn't talk nonsense.

-----

I have dealt with more than a dozen rich people who were introduced by the host, Payne, Allen, and Randal.

A little more than 10 o'clock in the evening, Li Changheng glanced around the reception site.

Suddenly I felt that I would never leave again, and the women around me who wished to swallow them would probably come over and make trouble regardless of etiquette.

He hurriedly said hello to Randal, and under the protection of personal guards, he went straight out of the hotel and took the car home.

As soon as he left, someone soon told his companions that he was incomprehensible about the style, and the ladies and celebrities who sent him to the door didn't know how to enjoy it.

But even the person who said this, after saying this, admired Li Changheng in his heart.

The upper circle in the United States is notoriously chaotic, but as young as Li Changheng, he can resist all kinds of temptations and make his competitors unable to speak up. At the same time, he really has to admire him.

----

On the way home, Li Changheng told Barney about mobilizing a team of Knight Shield soldiers to accompany New Jersey Rep. Horton to Columbia.

Then he asked about the blade that hadn't been by his side during this period of time.

Barney, who was driving, hesitated for a few seconds, until he saw Li Changheng looking at him in the rearview mirror, and then he said, "When you were in England last year, Daofeng met the girl.

After we checked the girl there was nothing wrong, we reported to you, do you remember? "

Li Changheng nodded, but Blade was the captain of his personal guard, and of course he had to pay attention to his every move.

Seeing Li Changheng just nodded, Barney sighed after a short silence and said, "The girl should be pregnant."

Li Changheng frowned and asked, "Are you sure?"

Barney nodded affirmatively, "Blade's leave is to worry about staying by your side. He and his unborn child will become the enemy's target.

Once the child and marriage are true, he will have to leave you.

Go to Knight Shield or other companies to work at ~lightnovelpub.net~Nima's.

Li Changheng cursed secretly, but he couldn't blame Blade.

After all, he is in his early 30s, and setting up a family and having children is a reality that cannot be avoided.

This can only be a blessing.

But the blade left from the position of the bodyguard, and Barney went to the DEA in the trenches, and if he manages the knight shield and serves as the captain of the guard, he will definitely make mistakes and omissions over time.

"Do you and the trench have a replacement for the blade?"

Barney scratched his head embarrassedly, wanting to recommend Stone Banks, and felt that Li Changheng actually didn't trust Banks very much.

Otherwise, Banks would not be sent to manage the fighting team of Silmi Island in South Korea, and he would be kept under pressure by himself and the trenches.

"Sorry, Henry, you can only choose a substitute."
