Chapter 104 (1/2)

Citibank is the largest commercial bank in the United States. It has its service outlets in more than 150 countries and regions around the world.

Unlike investment banks such as Goldman Sachs investment bank, * * * * and Morgan Stanley, Citibank, like city bank of America and Royal Bank of Scotland, focuses on commercial services rather than speculation.

To put it simply, they are the heritage of ancient banks. China's four major agricultural and industrial banks are established according to their operation mode.

At the same time, Citibank has always had a good reputation around the world. At least it will not eat buyers and sellers like some poisonous investment banks, and then pit buyers and sellers together.

Coincidentally, a few days after Xiao Qi's rebirth, Citibank announced that it would open its sixth branch in China in Chengdu and officially opened its foreign business in December.

So far, the business of foreign banks in China has not opened the channel. In addition to foreign currency business, RMB business is very few, mostly some financial products. Even personal deposits can not be absorbed, but only corporate deposits.

This will not turn for the better until the end of this year. At that time, as long as foreign banks become enterprises registered in China, they can handle all RMB businesses and begin to absorb personal deposits.

When Xiao Qi came to Chengdu Citibank on Zongfu Road, there were not many people handling business in the magnificent and beautiful business hall. Three of the six counters were not opened. Several account managers were staying together, looking at something with books.

The management of foreign companies has always been very strict, especially during working hours, which is much stricter than those in China. The relaxed and happy work scenes in the film are usually just evil inducements. Don't take them seriously.

”Welcome.”

As usual, a female clerk wearing glasses greeted with a smile, ”what business do you want to handle, sir?”

”Is your general manager there?” Xiao Qi, dressed in an Armani suit, asked with a smile.

Of course, in American English, American English.

This kind of English with a strong accent of the west coast of the United States directly stunned the female staff. At least she graduated from college. It's obvious that she can't speak this kind of spoken English because she hasn't been abroad for several years.

Or they are Chinese directly.

”What did you say, sir?” So she answered in English.

”I'm looking for your president. Please tell him that I have a big business to talk to him.” Xiao Qi slowed down his speech.

The female clerk finally understood, but she shook her head: ”Oh, I'm sorry, sir, if you don't have an appointment, I can't help you inform him.”

”If you look at a potential client, I won't know if he will refuse your request.”

”But...”

”If you don't decide, call him, I'll talk to him, and then he decides not to see me.” Xiao Qi continued to put pressure on her.

”Please wait a minute.”

The female clerk immediately ran into a room. In a few minutes, she came down from the elevator upstairs. A energetic middle-aged man came straight to Xiao Qi.
