Chapter 432 Negotiation (1)
But alas—
As a guy without any background, Roland simply couldn't chat with these old money family mbers.
When Carol Weir introduced him to the gable decoration sculptures in the backyard of the castle, and told him that the very imposing decoration over there was made by Adams Ward, Roland didn't even know who the other party was.
If it weren't for Ronald Perelman who saw the clues and opened his mouth to make a siege, he said that this work standing in the backyard of the Goldman family is not inferior to "Indian Hunter" in Central Park in New York City, and it can also be compared with When the "Statue of General Thomas" in Washington and the "Statue of Washington" in front of the U.S. Treasury were comparable, Roland may not understand for a long ti that this guy is the first artist in the United States to explore the use of realism to create sculptures. Statues were created in many cities.
When Roland showed an awkward but polite smile to get rid of this, he continued to move forward and his eyes just stayed on the painting on the wall of the fence for a few seconds, and Carol Weil told him that the painting was from Edward- Hope's hand.
Just like before, Roland, who has no artistic bacteria, also doesn't understand who Edward Hope is.
With the introduction of Henry Paulson, he heard the bohemian title of Trash Can School for the first ti.
Although due to differences in cognition levels, the communication between the two parties was disconnected, but Roland did not feel envious like other upstarts. For him, it is standard operation if he does not understand art and does not understand appreciation. If he can catch a line, he can say if he can catch a line, then he will not have lived an extrely hard life in the past ten years.
After all, only the guy born with a golden spoon in his mouth has the opportunity to pursue the background.
Besides that, we can only work hard to create a foundation for the children.
As for thinking, it is best to reopen without parental support?
Well, no one can feel the suffering of others, and if he can’t feel it, he has no right to persuade others to feel relieved.
When Carol Weil found out that she and Roland really had no common language, she felt regretful but not disappointed, so she stepped on the point and led him into the restaurant. After a simple but not low-key dinner, she felt tired As a reason, get up and say goodbye.
And when she showed fatigue, Ronald Perelman, who did not show any effect from beginning to end, also got up in ti, saying that he could send the other party back. , Let the huge restaurant co back to life.
"Okay, now it's just the two of us."
After picking the last piece of steak on the dinner plate into his mouth, he put down the knife and fork and wiped his mouth with a warm napkin, then smiled and looked at Roland on the opposite side, and said, "Mr. Allen, you may not know Adams Ward, Don't know Edward Hope either, but you know , don't you? I don't think I need to introduce myself like Mrs. Carol Weir, do I?"
The brisk voice aroused endless smiles on Roland's face.
If you say that before Carroll Weil was there, Goldman Sachs Chairman Henry Paulson was a piece of wood.
Now, he is full of soul.
His hands are on the table, he is cheerful like a doll, and the lightness in his eyes is embracing the world through the lens.
Looking at the guy who was exuding joy all over his body, Roland, who was also relaxed, leaned back imdiately, put his hands on his stomach, and asked bluntly: "Why do I feel like you are liberated?"
As soon as this remark ca out, it imdiately won the approval of the other party, "Although Mrs. Weil is nad in the foundation, she is not in charge of specific work. As the granddaughter of Peggy Guggenheim, her usual research is only on art... "
Speaking of this, Henry Paulson shrugged, "But our work is not art!
You study entertainnt, the Internet, even technology and finance, while I study securities, investnt...
In the case of a professional inappropriate, she left, am I liberated? "
"Hahahahaha~"
When the offending bluntness fell into Roland's ears, Roland, who was full of surprise, burst out laughing.
kuangkuang "kuangkuang~"
Similar to the joy of finding a confidant, he knocked on the table with his hand.
It is true that those mbers of the old money family with the support of their parents can find romance without working, and can gather talents to enjoy a luxurious life without using their brains, but when countless elites who want to break through the hierarchy continue to gather towards them and want to take advantage of them With the money in hand, when it cos to realizing their dreams, these guys who are eager to rise...
In fact, I don’t agree 100% with the flashy life enjoyed by those old money family mbers.
This is not envy, jealousy, or hatred, but the gap between cognition and circle.
The elites who want to break through are unwilling to waste ti and opportunities, while the old money born in Ro can be wasted and trampled wantonly.
If the two don't et each other, then naturally the two never get bored.
But if the forr wants to talk about business, but the latter wants to join in the fun...
The forr who finds the old money annoying but has to follow their wishes will feel extrely aggrieved.
No way, old money will never understand the living environnt of guys who have no nostalgia for the past, are full of pursuits in the present, and look forward to a better future, because their grandparents have already experienced it for them.
Because of this, after seeing the relaxation on Henry Paulson's face, Roland, who knew it well, asked curiously: "What do you usually do in the afternoon? And where are you at this ti? "
The bald head who understood the aning of Roland's words shook his eyebrows, and said, "Of course I was at Goldman Sachs in the afternoon, and at this ti, if there is no major event, I should just co out of the office. If there is any... I should still be busy now."
Looking down at the ti on the watch, Roland smiled and shook his head at the extrely clear seven thirty.
According to what the other party described, this guy with an annual salary of nearly 40 million is quite busy.
But in the midst of his busy schedule, he had to be silent all afternoon because of a business?
well!
Migrant workers, the spirit of migrant workers, and migrant workers are masters!
"Okay, so let's speed things up?"
Looking at the other person and wanting to talk to him about sothing serious, Roland is no longer pretentious, "You should know my needs, right? And I also know your thoughts, so... just do what you want?"
The clean and clear words made Henry Paulson take a serious look at him. After finding that the IQ of the earth ball grass in front of him was comparable to his appearance, he felt that the whole afternoon was wasted and he got up directly. "Go to the study."
Under his leadership, the two directly skipped over the flashy appearances piled up with money, and when they ca to the solemn study room, the oncoming dullness also made the scene serious.
After taking his seat, Henry Paulson was not hypocritical and said: "First of all, I want to say that although there are only two of us now, it does not an that the next communication will be conducted by Goldman Sachs and you alone, Guggenhai Mu didn't send people because they have the sa interests as our Goldman Sachs, so, in the case of Madam, I can represent them with full authority to negotiate with you, Okay?"
Henry Paulson, holding the docunt in his hand, looked at Roland.
While he raised his right eyebrow, Roland nodded and said, "Yeah~ I understand what you an."
The aning of Henry Paulson's words is very simple, that is, the exchange of interests cannot be placed on the table.
Make a fortune in silence, that is the kingly way!
As a listed company, how do you make a fortune silently?
It's very simple, just let a non-listed company co forward.
For example, when Goldman Sachs wants to invest in a company but does not want to expose their purpose to the market prematurely, they can ask a foundation like Guggenheim to co forward and let them form an investnt fund. It is enough to make targeted capital injection to a certain company, and then purchase the shares of the fund according to the proportion.
In this way, on the bright side, it is equivalent to Goldman Sachs buying a fund of a certain foundation, and how many shares this foundation holds in each company is an investnt behavior. As for whether to hold shares indirectly, how much is the shareholding? ?
This is not required to be made public.
Of course, this behavior is illegal.
But the question is, what is the law to Goldman Sachs?
During the subpri mortgage crisis, the US governnt robbed 12.9 billion of the 180 billion governnt aid loans issued by the US governnt!
And when New York State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo wanted to file a lawsuit against Goldman Sachs…
The position of Governor of New York State fell to him.
And then things...
Just let it go.
Cha Goldman Sachs how can get promoted and get rich?
Hey hey hey~
After Roland nodded in approval, Henry Paulson, who had gone through the reminder process, continued: "Okay, then let's talk about the fundantal issue. Now, your demand is to hope that the donkey party can let go of the Enron case and support the shale oil company." Oil extraction, so…”
"Wait!" However, before he finished speaking, Roland interrupted: "You are wrong, this is not what I need at all!
My need is to find a way to help George, to send a ssage to the donkeys, and tell them that George hopes they can let go of the Enron case. As for whether they really let go? It doesn't really have much to do with . "
When Roland pulled himself out of the whole thing in a way similar to a tongue twister, Henry Paulson, who was sitting across from him, imdiately showed confusion, and asked puzzledly: "What's the difference between these two points? "
"Of course it's different!" Roland replied very naturally, "Because I have nothing to do with the energy giant."
"..."
The brainless emphasis caused countless black lines to appear on Henry Paulson's forehead. After reacting, he smiled helplessly, then threw away the first docunt in his hand, and looked at the cover of the second docunt. , said: "If you say that, then I can only understand that your fundantal need is to promote the "House of Cards" project?"
"Yes." Roland nodded, "This is my original and most fundantal purpose."
When Roland emphasized his tone and lengthened the endings of the words 'initially' and 'most fundantal', Henry Paulson finally understood what he ant, "I understand, the question about shale oil, outside What it will look like has nothing to do with you, right? Even if they can't cooperate, you still hope that your goal can continue to advance?"
"Hmph." Roland just snorted twice to such an inquiry, and did not give a specific response.
But the smile on his face has already confird everything.
That's right, although he contacted Goldman Sachs, he didn't want to emphasize too much on the issue of energy.
It’s not that he has no ambitions, but that he doesn’t want to use his own industry as a bargaining chip to promote the successful mining of shale oil!
Before he intervened, it was a struggle between the Elephant Party and the Donkey Party supported by energy giants, but after he intervened, or after seeing Goldman Sachs, if he opened his mouth, it beca the replacent he needed!
The forr is a transaction between the energy giant and the donkey party capital.
The latter is a deal between Roland Allen, who hopes to gain the support of the bush governnt, and Goldman Sachs, who can promote the decision-making of the Donkey Party.
The nature of the two is fundantally different!
And use your own money to help others do business?
Roland can't do this kind of thing!
Therefore, he must draw a clear line between himself and shale oil.
And after he showed a utilitarian attitude, Henry Paulson went straight to the point, saying: "Okay, if you want to make "House of Cards", it's actually very simple, even if they talk about shale oil Yes, but as long as Warcraft Film and Television accepts our capital injection, we can guarantee that the donkey party will not have any objections to this drama."
This answer was within Roland's expectation.
Similarly, this is also the best way to solve the problem in his opinion.
As for keeping Warcraft Movies and TV under your own control, absolutely not introducing foreign capital?
This kind of thinking is unacceptable.
Because in this world, the guys who eat alone have all died suddenly.
After understanding this point, all that remains is to find out how many shares these vampires want.
"So, how much do you want to inject?" Roland raised his legs, "The inco from film and television and the existence of Marvel alone can make its valuation reach 5 billion, so you guys have done the specifics investnt plan?"
"How much? Take it easy."
However, in the face of Roland's question-like fast-forward, Henry Paulson did not give his own thoughts imdiately, but said: "In addition to Warcraft Movies and Television, we also feel that the ga company under your na Blizzard Capital can enter the financing stage, not only that, but we also believe that Watch Ventures can beco an investnt company like Berkshire Hathaway.”
When Henry Paulson looked through the lens and landed on Roland, his smiling face made Roland shake his legs.
He wants to stop everything in Warcraft Movies and TV?
Do not make jokes!
How is this enough?
For them, everything that Roland controls is attractive!
It’s like when Roland snatched an additional 8% of Google’s equity from Sergey Brin and Larry Page!
Just like when Rowland forcibly took Amazon's shares from Jeff Bezos!
Just like back then, Roland dared to think about splitting Sony unscrupulously!
Now Goldman Sachs also wants to taste a stable return on investnt ten tis a year!
no way!
Who made everyone capital!
The nature of capital is aggression and plunder!
Note: ①Goldman Sachs has done a lot of things, such as only 3.8% of the annual tax paynt, they can do it, but in the article, the New York State Attorney General has turned into the governor, and Comrade Guan Hai ca forward , what is the law? People are not birds at all. Of course, the most amazing thing is that after that person ca to power, he took the initiative to push the legality of hydraulic fracturing in shale oil in New York State.
