The rich man: I earn trillions a year, but I’m really not a rich man
Chapter 71: Invitation from Citibank, together we become the strongest financial group in America
"It's up to you, but your choice is correct. This kind of person may really become the second Wei Xue. By then, she may want more, and then you will be very uncomfortable."
He was not surprised at all that Qin Yu rejected the model girl last time. Although she had a good figure, at their level, the least they wanted was a pretty girl. In addition, with his own experience, it can be said that most of the second generation, except Wang Cong, had their own consideration mechanism for finding a short-term girlfriend, and basically they all wanted to avoid risks.
"Hello, sir. I am the chief representative of Citibank's board of directors. You can call me Anna. I am very sorry for not having your permission to enter your estate."
Hearing the voice, Qin Yu glanced at the blonde girl who appeared behind him, but ignored her because she was just outside the manor and had not entered the living area. He did not pursue the matter. Moreover, she was a member of the Citibank board of directors and most likely wanted to invite him to cooperate with her.
"Brother, I won't talk to you about this for now. Someone from Citigroup is here. I want to ask what's going on first. We can get together again when you are free."
"What do you people from Citigroup want to talk to me about?" Looking at the blonde girl in front of him, she was very young. She must be someone temporarily arranged by Citigroup. She thought that this would allow her to get closer to him and have a chat with him. After all, no young person in the world likes to talk to an uncle or an old man.
Unfortunately, he doesn't buy into this. He can't stand the beauty of the West. What's more, Americans themselves are not that good-looking. Most of them are rather ugly. At least for him, killing such people is a good idea.
"It's like this. The head of our group wants to invite you to have a meal and discuss some things. Of course, you need to go to know what they will talk about. This level of meeting is not something people like us can know about."
Citigroup is essentially the Citigroup Financial Group. As one of the top ten financial groups in the United States, the reason they found me at this time is probably for profit.
After all, Citi's investment in China is real, and seven out of ten of them are losing money. It has been the same day after day for ten years, and it can't make much money at all. Now they find themselves, just wanting to emulate General Motors and have a stock surge to recover their losses.
The two sides do not have much common interests, but the other party is one of the top ten financial groups in the United States after all. If I don't go, with my current connections, I don't know how I will die in America.
Although he has a lot of bodyguards around him, most of the killer mercenaries on the dark web are also the world's top special forces and retired agents. Their combat effectiveness is also strong. As long as they have money, there are not many people they can't kill. If he doesn't want to be "eaten", he should go and have a meal with them and see what the other party wants to do.
...Time passed. Two hours later, in the reception room of Citigroup headquarters...
"I'm very sorry for inviting you here in such a hurry today. Please forgive my recklessness."
"You must be Mr. Charles Prince, right? It is my great honor to meet you. I have heard in China that Citigroup has made great achievements under your leadership. I wonder why you invited me here? After all, at your level, there are not many things that cannot be solved, right?"
"Please take a seat. We invite you to come here because we do need your help with something. We will invite you to become an honorary director of Citigroup. I believe you understand what this means. Although you are an honorary director, you will still receive a dividend of 800 million US dollars every year. Of course, if you have investments, we will also add the dividends you get from your investments."
"Hmm?" Qin Yu took a sip of the tea handed to him by his assistant and calmed down. It was indeed good to be an honorary director of Citigroup. Even if he did nothing, he would still get a dividend of 800 million US dollars. Moreover, most of them were top dignitaries from all walks of life in the United States. Entering here meant that you were standing at the pinnacle of power in this country and could even run for the highest representative of power.
But if the other party wants to pull me in, they must have their own interests in mind, otherwise who would give the other party such a privilege for nothing.
"That's great, but you pulled me in like this, I'm afraid you need my help with something. We're all businessmen, so why not just be straightforward and make it clear so that everyone will feel better."
"It's not a big deal, actually. You are also aware of the current situation in America. The top ten financial groups control 80% of the country's resources, from oil, arms, and banks to normal daily necessities. However, there will also be some attacks and targeting between the top ten financial groups."
"We, Citigroup, are gradually losing our strength in the competition with the other nine financial groups. In addition, our investment in China will not see returns in the short term. I am afraid that we will not even be able to maintain our middle position, so..."
"So, you hope to get my help so that you can use the power of the two consortiums to fight against them, is that right?"
"But if that's the case, then I'm sorry, I don't have any other characteristics, I just don't like trouble. Cooperating with you means I have to get into the core of your struggle, which is annoying. I don't like it, so I hope you choose someone else to cooperate with."
Qin Yu is not a fool. He can only protect himself now. If he is really involved in the struggle between capitals, even if he can avoid trouble in a short period of time, it will inevitably happen to him over time. By that time, he will really be hanging himself. After all, his background will not withstand the investigation. It will take one or two years at the longest and a few months at the shortest. Basically, what the big capitalists want can be put on the table.
"No, dear Mr. Qin, we will not let you get involved in the core of the struggle. As long as you are willing to invest money in us or lend us money, we will handle the specific struggle. If you win, we will become the controllers of the strongest financial group in the United States. If you lose, Citigroup will still be one of the top ten financial groups. Obviously, you will not lose. This is called retreating by advancing in your China."
So that's how it is. Qin Yu nodded. He just needed to invest some money himself, which was not a problem. He could withdraw and get help from Citigroup at the same time. They were advancing to retreat. Even if they couldn't climb to the first place, they would not fall out of the top ten financial groups in the future. They would still be one of the behind-the-scenes decision-makers in the United States. For him, it was just some money and there would be no substantial loss. However, if Citigroup won, he would directly become one of the behind-the-scenes decision-makers in the United States.
