At that ti, I might not even be able to endure the next few years.
The situation seems sowhat ridiculous. These people who are invited by Franklin Roosevelt to attend the White House ball are the sa ones the Arican Infrastructure Group wants to collaborate with.
Their strength is undeniable!
If they join forces with other infrastructure companies in the state, even with Venus Bank backing the Arican Infrastructure Group, they wouldn’t be defenseless!
Moreover, they have a geographical advantage!
But all this is theoretical.
Because everyone present understands that they are an alliance ford by multiple companies.
The degree of this alliance’s cohesion is uncertain, but they do know how easily it can be disrupted.
There will always be so companies that can’t resist the temptation of the Arican Infrastructure Group.
When that happens, this alliance will collapse from within!
So although their decision was made quickly, it was still a result of careful weighing of pros and cons in their hearts.
Given the current situation, cooperating with the Arican Infrastructure Group is the best option.
As for the Arican Infrastructure Group wanting to infiltrate their state’s infrastructure market, they are not without counterasures.
After all, the Arican Infrastructure Group has to operate nationwide, inevitably splitting their focus, and not just that; there is also the question of priorities.
All they need to do is consolidate their hold on their state’s market.
Moreover, with their geographical advantage, simply establishing good relations with state officials will definitely give them a greater edge over the Arican Infrastructure Group!
When these people returned to the ball with smiles on their faces, they still saw a scene of singing and dancing in harmony.
However, so people noticed them and saw the smiles on their faces.
So these people found Ben Wallace and others to inquire about their conversation with Café Jackson.
Matters involving private negotiations, naturally Ben Wallace and others would not disclose the content!
Then these people sought out Café Jackson.
Actually, even without the conversation with Ben Wallace and company, they would have sought Café Jackson.
These few individuals were the presidents of llon Bank, William llon, Citibank, Junior Rockefeller, and Chase Bank, Cohen Eaton!
Junior Rockefeller’s business philosophy differs sowhat from Old Rockefeller’s.
Since the breakup of Standard Oil, Old Rockefeller has remained behind the scenes, no longer appearing publicly.
But since Old Rockefeller passed away and Junior Rockefeller took over, the first thing he did was to officially announce his role as president of Citibank.
As for Cohen Eaton, he is also a renowned Arican banker.
In the past, the Rockefeller family targeted Chase Bank, so the New York Fair Trust founded by Junior Rockefeller beca Chase Bank’s largest shareholder.
Yet it was still difficult to counter Chase Bank’s managent, all due to the appearance of Cohen Eaton.
It was because Cohen Eaton led the Chase Bank managent to withstand the Rockefeller family’s infiltration into Chase Bank’s managent.
This is also one of the reasons why the Rockefeller family gave up on Chase Bank and focused on Citibank.
The three naturally had a reason to find Café Jackson.
After all, the $3 billion allocated by Congress is like an incomparable beauty.
No one can ignore it.
If Morgan Bank’s business fell into this category, they would be here as well.
As things stand, Breton Bank is poised to be the biggest winner of the $3 billion proposal.
But they cannot give up.
Previously, they sought out Robert Lillard, but Robert Lillard gave them official rhetoric.
So now they can only look for Café Jackson to find a new way of collaboration!
"Jackson, since we are so familiar with each other, let’s be frank, do you really want to monopolize this matter with Breton Bank?"
Junior Rockefeller directly asked.
Having just taken over Citibank, he needs to secure better business for the bank.
He needs to showcase his capabilities to Citibank.
Currently, the Rockefeller family is the largest shareholder of Citibank, and Junior Rockefeller has beco its president.
But that doesn’t an Junior Rockefeller holds absolute authority at Citibank.
So shareholders and mbers of the managent team of Citibank still scrutinize Junior Rockefeller.
To change this situation, either Junior Rockefeller shows compelling competence,
or the Rockefeller family achieves absolute control of Citibank’s shares.
This way, even if other shareholders want to oppose the Rockefeller family, it would be impossible!
"Of course, if Jackson thinks there’s a rift between Cohen Eaton and us, we can let him leave!"
Even now, Junior Rockefeller hasn’t forgotten how Cohen Eaton opposed him at Chase Bank.
Cohen Eaton was not upset by Junior Rockefeller’s comnt, he simply smiled and said.
"Mr. Rockefeller, Chase Bank has nurous collaborations with Breton Bank and Venus Bank, our relationship is no worse than that with Citibank!"
In this, Cohen Eaton was not lying.
As one of Arica’s largest banks, they are not just competitors but often collaborators too.
For instance, Breton Bank and Chase Bank had collaborated on Wall Street multiple tis, and their target had been Morgan.
No mistake about it.
Now among these super banks, despite nurous collaborations due to their leaders’ relationships,
there is more competition than cooperation.
They can be said to compete across various industries.
But there is always a limit to their competition: when their common interests are involved, they unite imdiately!
William llon watched Junior Rockefeller and Cohen Eaton’s banter without comnt.
Although he has the sa issues as Junior Rockefeller, the crisis situations are different.
William llon’s authority in llon Bank is higher than Junior Rockefeller’s status in Citibank.
More importantly, the llon family is more closely connected with the Block family.
William llon believes that as long as Breton Bank doesn’t want to monopolize this project, llon Bank is sure to be among the partners!
Café Jackson interrupted the argunt between Junior Rockefeller and Cohen Eaton.
"Gentlen, I know what you want. Since it’s just us four discussing, let’s be straightforward!"
Junior Rockefeller and the others imdiately showed interest.
However, Café Jackson looked around and could only bring them back to the spot where he had just negotiated with Ben Wallace and others.
"As for this $3 billion from Congress, Breton Bank can take only $1.5 billion, leaving you three to vie for the remaining $1.5 billion!"
The three exchanged glances, and Junior Rockefeller sowhat dissatisfied said, "Jackson, Citibank is no worse than Breton Bank. Do you really think we can’t outdo Breton Bank if you alone take half?"
"I have no doubt about your capabilities, but are you sure you want to go through with this?"
Café Jackson confidently looked at Junior Rockefeller!
The influence of these three banks in U.S. politics is considerable.
If they unite, even with Robert Lillard as the Treasury Secretary, he may not be able to control the chaos they could stir!
But that’s not how this is calculated, because Breton Bank not only has Robert Lillard, the U.S. Treasury Secretary, but also the powerful Franklin Roosevelt on their side.
More importantly, just like Café Jackson’s previous intimidation of those infrastructure companies,
these three banks aren’t united!
Because Breton Bank could entirely draw llon Bank to their side.
Then it would be two versus two, with no chance of victory for them!
"I have no objections!" Just as Junior Rockefeller was about to argue further, Cohen Eaton agreed with Café Jackson’s proposal before William llon could respond!
