Chapter 154: Who gives you courage?

"No, you can't do this." San Francisco, the headquarters of Wells Fargo, shareholders gathered and roared angrily at the people who came.
"Of course I can. My BOSS currently owns 52.5 percent of Fumin Bank's shares and settles on Wall Street. The decision to reopen will not change."
I have been sitting in the book of the think tank for many days. At the moment, I sit in the meeting room and tell the shareholders this sudden news with a polite smile.
"We have a large number of depositors in San Francisco, what should these people do?" a shareholder protested.
The banking interstate bill has not changed. If they want to gain a foothold on Wall Street in New York, they can only choose to close their doors here.
"The branch here will be closed, temporarily in a closed state, and inform all customers that they can choose to withdraw their money or wait for the opening of Wells Fargo Bank of New York."
Sure enough, Ben gave exactly the same answer as they guessed.
"Their family, career, and life are here. Do you want them to go to New York every time they withdraw money?" A shareholder gritted his teeth and punched his fist heavily on the table.
"I said, they can take their money." Ben still kept smiling.
"I will not agree with such a ridiculous decision. I want to protest to the Federal Reserve. You are ruining this bank and ruining our efforts."
The former largest shareholder, the Fargo family, founder of Wells Fargo, and the third-generation William Fargo cried out with a blushing neck.
"This resolution will not change, as for what you want to do, Mr. Fargo, that is your freedom."
Ben Xiao smiled, stood up and closed the document in front of him, and gazed sarcastically: "I also want to inform you that Wells Fargo will receive a capital injection of up to US$1 billion. I hope you have enough money in your pocket to keep Existing shares."
When Li Zitao and Juliana started negotiations, the think tank's acquisition of Wells Fargo had already begun.
Wells Fargo's stock price plummeted to 80 cents. At a time when no one would touch the banking industry, shareholders were very comfortable letting a lot of shares stay in the market.
So the think tank spent a week, without attracting anyone's attention, quietly absorbing 45 percent of the shares.
Immediately after opening the big mouth of the blood basin, swallowed 7 percent of the shares in one fell swoop.
By the time the board of Wells Fargo responded, he already had 52.5 percent of the shares.
After Ben left with his bodyguard, the shareholders of the meeting room slumped weakly in their seats, thinking about where to go in the future.
With a capital injection of US$1 billion, Wells Fargo’s current market value is only 20 million, which clearly does not give them a way of life!
With such a huge capital injection, how many shares can they keep? 0.05 percent, or 0.1?
...
Qian Qianqian, after finalizing all the details in New York, Li Zitao should worry about the money.
He doesn't have a capital reserve of US$400 million, and he can only think of one way to pledge shares for loans.
"Aiken, I bring you a big business." The first thing Li Zitao returned to Chicago was to invite Aiken to dinner.
"..." When he knew that Li Zitao was about to borrow 400 million dollars, Aiken's fork almost fell on the table.
"what are you planning to do?"
Aiken’s first reaction was that Li Zitao was about to run away.
In this situation, what kind of business can use 400 million US dollars? Is he going to the West to buy Los Angeles?
Li Zitao's favor for Los Angeles is clear to anyone who has paid attention to him.
"In the investment banking, insurance, and wealth management industries, I plan to settle on Wall Street!" Li Zitao said relaxedly, but smiled bitterly on his face.
Settling down on Wall Street, it sounds very simple, rent a building, decorate the office, and then recruit talent to start business.
But if things were really that simple, Li Zitao really wanted to thank God.
"Hehe..." If Aiken also watched the live broadcast, it would have to call six, six, six...
Wall Street is Morgan's anti-scale, and is the private reserve of the Morgan consortium. They never allow anyone to get involved.
The same is the eight major consortiums, if you want to intervene, you must form a cross-holding with Morgan, let the other party share a slice.
Who gave you the courage to do this, is she surnamed Liang?
"What are you going to use as a mortgage? The Blue and White Chamber of Commerce... or SHIELD?" said the last name, and Aiken's pupils were bright.
"Golden Arch!" Li Zitao directly dispelled his speculation.
Blue and White Chamber of Commerce? SHIELD Bureau?
Do you have that good appetite?
"The specific details will be discussed with you by the United... Think Tank." Li Zitao wanted to say United Bank.
It can be considered that now it is in a lockout, it is simply an empty shelf, and the headless United Bank, Li Zitao feels more confident to hand it to the think tank.
"Of course." Aiken nodded somewhat regretfully.
Compared to the Golden Arch, he is more interested in S.H.I.E.L.D., or all consortia are very interested in S.H.I.E.L.D.
According to information gathered by think tanks, including the Chicago Consortium ~ EbookFREE.me ~ a total of four consortia are forming their own armed forces.
Of course, their actions are more secretive, and they put the subject abroad.
Their great career and great reputation are also a burden for them.
Li Zitao started by relying on SHIELD and started the private security industry. He also received military support.
In addition, because he is a Chinese, most people treat him as if they are watching ‘foreign companies,’ who are already vigilant, so they have little impact on him.
These giants are different. They are national enterprises recognized by the public, participants and witnesses of the growth and rise of the United States, and the pride of the people.
"What you represent is the country, and now you suddenly want to engage in private armed forces, what do you want to do?"
99% of the world is ordinary people, so this nonsense can basically be ignored, and the major events caused by rumors have never been reduced.
The larger the enterprise, the higher its status, and the more attention it will receive in every move.
If the people were to know that the consortium was engaging in armed forces, the first thought would only be, "There will be war again."
The Civil War, the American-Mexico War, the First World War, and the American-Western War. Although the United States became strong and prosperous, for ordinary families, these experiences did not seem pleasant.
No matter which nation or country in this world, the beneficiaries of war will only be the whole country and that small group of people.
For ordinary people, the only thing that war represents is the separation of life and death and the cruel wailing.
"I agree to this loan, but there is one thing that must be kept confidential." Aiken made a small request before the conversation ended.
"This is exactly what I want to say." Li Zitao also did not want people to know that his own funds were in short supply.
