Captulo 977: Chapter 935: Round Table eting_2
He feared staying too long might reveal his true feelings, after all, one was a fifty-year-old politician, and the other a viperous woman who stabbed her father in the back.
If not despising the entertainnt industry, they surely would have won Oscar awards effortlessly.
Compared to them, Lu Liang still needed practice.
Just as Lu Liang and Wilson were about to leave, the hotel manager hurried over, respectfully saying, “Mr. Lu, a lady wishes to see you.”
If she were an unknown or low-status woman, he certainly wouldn’t have disturbed Lu Liang, the key was he knew her.
Emma Roberts, a Hollywood star born in the 90s, although less than 1.6 ters tall, had a hot body ratio, and because of her sweet looks, she was known as the pinnacle of diva-like female stars.
Two years ago, there had been rumors between her and Lu Liang, but for so unknown reason, it seed to have ended quietly.
Lu Liang looked over, seeing Emma in a sexy strapless dress, standing at the door, looking at him hesitantly.
He pondered for a mont and said, “Let her in, but no special treatnt, let her be.”
Lu Liang was unsure whether she wanted to seek reconciliation or gain so buzz by renewing the girlfriend buff.
But whatever the reason, despite having had a relationship, he didn’t mind helping her. As for what cos next, if she’s still there when he returns, they’ll talk.
Approaching nine o’clock, at the Blackstone Group headquarters building.
"What’s the ti, why did they suddenly call us here?” Ronald, the head of BlackRock Fund, looked displeased.
His mood was bad today because Lu Liang had arrived in New York, and the national dia was reporting, and other countries were also paying attention, almost turning their ho field into Lu Liang’s ho field.
That feeling was like an uninvited guest at ho, or like the incompetent husband in a Neon action movie.
"They should be arriving soon.”
Su Shimin’s smile remained, but Vanguard’s head Gret frowned, “They?”
He instinctively looked at the few in the eting room, including State Street, BlackRock, Guofu, and Bank of Arica.
Round Table eting of seven, only Wilson was missing.
Gret’s eyes suddenly sharpened, “Did you invite Lu Liang?”
Wilson was attending a welco dinner, although he could co over, he only represented ‘him’, not ‘them’.
Bringing Lu Liang would an eting ‘their’ condition.
As the words fell, everyone looked at Su Shimin.
Su Shimin remained calm, a smile on his lips.
The next second, the eting room door was pushed open, Wilson, like a doorman, made an inviting gesture.
"Hello friends, I am Lu Liang.”
Lu Liang smiled as he walked around, waving, like a curious child, he circled the Round Table and finally stopped beside Su Shimin.
He smilingly asked, “Did you save a seat for ?”
"There is one.” Su Shimin nodded, calling over his assistant to place a chair between him and Wilson.
The seven-seat Round Table eting turned into eight seats, with Lu Liang as the only Asian face.
"Gret, we’ve t.”
"Ronald, I’ve seen you too.”
"Nelson, long ti no see.”
"Could the two friends introduce themselves, so everyone gets familiar?”
Lu Liang pulled out his chair, leaning his elbows on the table, smiling and looking at the two he hadn’t seen before.
Gret was from Vanguard, Ronald from BlackRock, Nelson from State Street Fund.
The remaining two should be heads of Guofu and Bank of Arica, Lu Liang had heard from Wilson about their nas.
However, since they hadn’t interacted before, he hoped they’d be polite enough to introduce themselves.
"Guofu—Addison Paul.”
"Bank of Arica—Holland Duke.”
The two exchanged a glance, despite being filled with displeasure, they showed false smiles on their faces.
"Since we’re all acquainted, we’ll be good friends in the future, let’s welco Lu Liang.”
Su Shimin smiled and clapped.
Wilson was the first to respond,
Gret followed closely behind.
The remaining four sighed inwardly and could only symbolically clap their hands a few tis to welco Lu Liang’s addition.
"Everyone’s here, let’s chat a bit.”
Su Shimin took a sip of tea, and looked at Lu Liang, “I hear Ivanka and her husband have submitted their resignation to the governnt and decided to support Mr. Qiao’s campaign?”
Lu Liang nodded, “I have introduced them, and it’s likely Mr. Qiao will win.”
"Mr. Qiao’s victory benefits us all.”
Su Shimin nodded slightly, looking at everyone and asked, “When the ti cos, let him increase the health budget, while continuing the quantitative easing policy to keep US stocks rising, what do you think?”
Present were a profit-driven group, he abandoned the usual public appearance and spoke directly, supporting Old Qiao was just to make money.
"I have no objections.”
"Neither do I.”
Everyone had no dissent over this decision, they raised their hands to vote, and Lu Liang also voted in favor.
Subsequently, Holland from Bank of Arica added, “The desert region’s war should continue, this way, not only will there be a market for large amounts of weapons, but it can also create an oil crisis, thereby raising the price of international crude oil and promoting the rise of gold.”
Su Shimin smiled faintly, “Even if the desert region war continues, it’s difficult to expand further, besides East Country’s weapon market share is rising. Let’s open a new battlefield.”
"Where can we open a new battlefield?”
Soone frowned and asked, instinctively looking at Lu Liang.
After all, to scale up a war, they must pull in a more powerful country.
East Country might be a good choice.
Lu Liang smiled, drank tea, like he was disconnected from the matter.
He had already guessed Su Shimin’s intention for inviting him to the eting.
They wanted him to give up, showing him they participated and led major events beyond financial markets.
But since he ca, he wouldn’t retreat.
Moreover, it’s a good opportunity to learn about their operation mode.
"Of course, rely on our codian.”
Upon hearing Su Shimin’s words, everyone knowingly smiled.
The codian could successfully get elected because of their great contribution, now it’s ti for the other to repay.
Lanzi is a good choice, after all, East Country has the risk of losing, but Lanzi has nearly none.
Moreover, through the Beijing University pact, drag European countries in, making them contribute money and effort.
"Since everyone agrees, this matter is decided, specifics to be determined as needed.”
After all, stirring an international war, against one of the top five, requires careful planning.
However, as long as they’re willing to act, long three years, short one year, war will surely break out.
Next, many more matters were discussed, including but not limited to profiting from war, national hardships, interfering in other countries’ dostic affairs and more.
The eting lasted a full 120 minutes.
Finally, Su Shimin looked at Wilson, “I heard tomorrow General Motors will forcibly convene a shareholders’ eting?”
Wilson smiled and nodded, “Musk’s intentions, haven’t you seen it? Ever since he chose to support Trump and took advantage of the chaos to acquire Twitter, his actions indicate he wants to beco Trump’s political heir.”
He spoke convincingly, “If he succeeds, it will be devastating for us, so it must be curbed, General Motors acquiring Tesla, making Musk lose his greatest reliance, is the best result.”
Though Wilson unconditionally supported Lu Liang’s decision, he had to find a suitable reason for intervention.
Musk wants to be the next Trump, completely overthrowing their sovereignty, is a good reason.
Whether true or not, doesn’t matter,
As long as Musk shows such tendencies it’s enough.
Su Shimin squinted, then chuckled, “Not ruling out the possibility, then I have no objections.”
