Chapter 17 (1/2)
”Boss, this is what you want.” Lying on the grass, Li Zitao looked at the man brought by the monk. His thin body, high nose, thin cheek, with a pair of eyes, but a pair of deep sinking eyes showed wisdom, cunning and chill??
”Introduce yourself!” Sitting up against the tree, Li said kindly.
”Dear Sir, my name is Shlomo Ben itzkic, I am a Spanish Jew, and I am from Morgan, jp. Morgan on Wall Street...”
Don't be surprised. As early as the civil war, JP. Morgan was a rising star on Wall Street. After making a fortune in the war, Morgan's business began to involve the issuance of railways, steel, gold and treasury bonds, and its performance soared.
After the first World War, the whole Morgan family was like a pair of wings, soaring into the sky. Now, Morgan has become one of the eight major American consortia, controlling more than 50% of the total assets of banks and large enterprises in the United States.
”JP. Morgan?” Li Zitao looks at the monk unexpectedly. He just wants to buy some stocks. How can he attract such a big crocodile.
Although he didn't know much about Morgan in his previous life, Li Zitao has been trying to supplement his knowledge during this period of time. Of course, he knows how brilliant Morgan is now.
The world's creditors, one of the eight major consortia, the Morgan consortium, is the absolute capital giant.
”Don't be surprised, Mr. Li, for Morgan, any customer is our precious wealth, and the company is very optimistic about your future.” Ben showed the professional smile of manager, but in his heart, he sighed about Li Zitao's youth.
A 17-year-old man, who had already attracted the attention of the company's management, was filled with envy at the thought of it.
From the old Morgan era to JP. Morgan, there is a special investment, talent investment.
It's like in the hearing before the split of JP Morgan that little Morgan said, ”even if a tramp comes to me and doesn't need any collateral, I'll write him a check for $1 million, as long as I approve of him.”
Of course, Li Zitao is far from able to attract the attention of little Morgan, but some executives have noticed the Chinese teenager who stirred up the storm in Chicago.
”So let's talk about business.” Although he was not clear about these, Li Zitao did not want to refuse each other.
At present, he has nothing for Morgan. Li Zitao is not afraid of what the other side wants from himself.
As for $150000? Don't be funny. If Morgan had to use some means for this money, the Morgan consortium would have collapsed.
Not afraid of being used, just afraid you are useless.
When you start to have the use value, it can show that you are moving towards success. The sad thing is that no one cares about your existence, instead of being used by others.
Just like Li Zitao in his previous life, he always complained that ”the whole world is against me,” until one day in the forum, someone said a word to him, and he never mentioned it again.
”The world is not aimed at you, because the world doesn't need you at all.” It was such a sentence that Li Zitao suffered 10000 real injuries, which made him feel deeply hurt.
”I have $150000 and want to make a short-term investment. The term is In early September, Ben, what do you recommend? ” Li Zitao did not know what famous stocks there were in this period, but he was not worried because before September 1929, even a pig could make a lot of money if he had money to throw into the stock market.
Although this sentence is exaggerated, it is not far from reality. In the era of stock speculation, the theme of daily commuting is ”how much has the stock you bought increased?”
From March to October of 1929, the stock market of the United States was like a huge wave, which made countless people crazy.
Li Zitao remembers the signs before the great depression began when the Central Bank of country y announced that a company had gone bankrupt. He had forgotten the specific name.
Because of this, he would find a professional manager to take care of and deal with his future plans. Otherwise, he would lose his pants as a financial idiot.
”I suggest holding copper and aviation. In fact, the best companies are steel and general motors. However, the stock price is too high. It is not cost-effective for the money in our hands. Although the Federal Reserve is curbing the excessive share price, the American people's confidence in the stock market has not been dispelled...” Ben, a chattering analyst, immediately changed his address from ”you” to ”we.”
Just two months ago, Citibank announced that it would allocate US $20 million as a loan and cut the demand interest rate, which completely smashed the new deal of the Federal Reserve.
The stock market began to climb again. Although the decline was uncertain, there were many maneuverable places. According to Ben's words, ”we can make a lot of money in the stock market.”
All right!
He is right. Li Zitao wants to make a fortune in the stock market now.
But all he did was wait for Black Tuesday, the stock market crash that kept America in the great depression for the next decade.From September to December of 1929, Li Zitao remembered the approximate period of time, but he needed to make some preparations in advance if he wanted to make a profit and short.
Moreover, his capital is too weak for this wealth feast.
With 150000 US dollars, a small wave may make him lose his blood. Of course, Li Zitao doesn't want to see that day coming.
To know that he can get this sum of money, it is absolutely a surprise to him. In order to get such a huge sum of money, Li Zitao finds it very difficult.
Even according to his plan, he is about to take over Capone's territory and career.
A lot of Capone's money is in circulation, and the profits are all in Capone's private account. The IRS is very close to the money, and he can't get it.
Even if he can get it, Li Zitao doesn't want to touch it. It will let him get involved in trouble, and even be classified as kappen's accomplice in some people's hearts.
