Reborn Capital Madman

During this trip to Frankfurt, the first priority is naturally official business, reaching a currency swap agreement for Hong Kong dollars with West German Marks with the Deutsche Bundesbank, the central bank of West Germany, as well as contacting the Concerns of Deutsche Bank and Alfred Herrhauer.

When dealing with representatives of the "German AG" era such as Sen, Edsard Reuter, etc., it was just doing private work incidentally.

Obviously, people work harder when doing personal work, but their schedules have to follow their official plans, and the next stop in West Germany is Switzerland.

When Gao Xian went to Switzerland, there was no major event such as reaching a currency swap agreement. He was just doing some routine financial exchanges with colleagues, and at the same time allowing the hard-working entourage to relax for a short time. The expense must have been paid by the fastidious Sir Gao out of his own pocket.

.

Seeing that the Xiangjiang Exchange Fund Administration team, including the assistant to the president, had initially digested the results of the negotiations with the Deutsche Bundesbank, Gao Xian asked them to go to Switzerland first, while he and his personal team stayed here in West Germany for one more day.

The time set aside was to discuss the strategic cooperation between Deutsche Bank, Morgan Grenfell, and Gaoyi. After all, the sincerity expressed by Alfred Hellhausen was very good, and Deutsche Bank could also cooperate with Gaoyi.

Exchange resources that Gao Xian values.

After Morgan Grenfell CEO Christopher Reeves arrived in Frankfurt, the tripartite meeting officially began.

Christopher Reeves is a cheerful person, he is not sour in his words, and his words do not carry as much weight as Alfred Herrhausen.

In fact, this also reflects that Morgan Grenfell has a greater demand for this strategic cooperation, so much so that it is willing to take out its own shares, and Deutsche Bank agreed to hold 5% of Morgan Grenfell's shares.

However, Gao Xian had other ideas. Instead of accepting 5% of Morgan Grenfell's shares, he proposed that the three parties jointly establish an investment bank to undertake the mission of strategic cooperation.

After Alfred Hellhausen, Christopher Reeves and others heard this, their first reaction was that Sir Gao was being cautious and was afraid that after accepting 5% of Morgan Grenfell's shares, it would be further exposed.

Operations such as share swaps ultimately affected his control over Gaoyi.

Gao Xian's expression was as normal and he didn't try to reveal what these people were thinking. It only makes sense if you are willing to think this way, and that doesn't matter.

In fact, Gao Xian's real intention in making this suggestion was to build a firewall outside Gao Yi to avoid being negatively affected by a possible huge industry scandal.

During this period, the world's financial circles were undergoing huge adjustments. In the midst of the tide, some people were either eager for quick success or unable to resist the temptation of profit, which often caused waves.

For example, in Morgan Stanley's mergers and acquisitions business department, there are a few young people who are very bold. They use the inside information they have learned in advance to buy stocks of client companies in advance and easily make a fortune.

This kind of business would not be a big problem for an outsider like Gao Xian to do it, but if someone inside Morgan Stanley dared to do it, it would be a big scandal.

As the saying goes, Skynet is meticulous and meticulous. The activities of these young people were accidentally discovered during a judicial investigation. It immediately caused an uproar. That is to say, Morgan Stanley has the energy to easily withstand the coming

Pressure from the judiciary, public opinion, etc.,

Gao Xian is really worried that if Morgan Grenfell follows the current path, it will repeat the mistakes of the "old script" and be dragged into the abyss by a huge industry scandal. If Gao Yi is bound to it, it will cause a lot of trouble.

Tasty.

In addition, from the perspective of "future experience", Deutsche Bank has been criticized by the United States from time to time for money laundering, providing financial services to sanctioned countries, etc., so that it can lose money and avoid disasters.

If troubles like this could be avoided at the outset of the top-level design, why wouldn't Gao Xian save himself the trouble?

After Alfred Hellhausen thought for a while, he asked a very forward-looking question about the future fate of this jointly established investment bank.

Gao Xian laughed, because he understood what Deutsche Bank wanted, so he stated very bluntly that if Deutsche Bank intended to acquire the entire jointly established investment bank in the future, Gao Yi would not object, and this clause could even be written into the document.

Seeing Alfred Hellhausen's eyes turning to him, Christopher Reeves followed Gao Xian's words and said: "If one of the three parties in this jointly established investment bank intends to conduct a full acquisition, then the other two parties

It deserves adult beauty.”

The subtext of this statement is that Morgan Grenfell will also retain the power to make possible acquisitions in the future.

Gao Xian, who repeatedly praised Christopher Reeves for his thoughtfulness and gentlemanly demeanor, couldn't help but secretly laugh. If Morgan Grenfell couldn't even protect itself in the future, then even if this one was successful, it would still be a wedding dress for others.

Only one day is definitely not enough to determine all the specific details of strategic cooperation. It is enough to reach a consensus on the direction. Gao Xian no longer lingers, leaving behind the formal invitation to invite senior executives from Deutsche Bank and Morgan Grenfell to Xiangjiang.

After making an appointment, we set off for Switzerland.

There was no words all the way. Gao Xian arrived in Zurich. After entering the arranged hotel, he noticed that the team members of the Hong Kong Exchange Fund Administration had gone out for sightseeing. He smiled and said to his entourage: "We have three days off, let's go have some fun."

."

After Gao Xian closed his eyes and meditated on the sofa for a while, he heard a few gentle knocks on the door. He stood up and opened the door, only to see Mark Rich standing outside wearing sunglasses.

"Old friend, you're welcome." Gao Xian smiled and shook hands with Mark Rich vigorously.

"It feels good to breathe the free air." Mark Rich, who escaped from the United States but is still on the FBI's wanted list, seems to be in good condition.

As the old saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed. During the unfortunate period when Mark Rich was facing jail, Sir Gao was very interested in Mark Rich. Mark Rich would definitely appreciate it, and even though he was still arrested by the FBI,

Wanted, but the business cannot stop, and it is increasingly necessary to rely on Sir Gao's energy. Therefore, after meeting Gao Xian at this time, Mark Rich got close to Gao Xian sincerely.

After all, this kind of meeting time is precious, so after exchanging greetings as brothers, the two quickly got down to business.

Now Mark Rich has given up on the United States. Anyway, the United States is playing a double-standard trick. As long as he keeps sending money and paying tribute, his personal safety will not be a problem, and even American companies can resume operations.

"I don't think it's a long-term solution to only be a commodity trader. For the next development, we still need to strive to control some industrial companies of commodities. This is inseparable from the operation on the surface." Mark Rich quickly said

Speaking of his well-thought-out plan, "Now that the name Mark Rich Company is too eye-catching, let's reorganize the company and introduce some investors. I formally invite Sir Gao to join."

Naturally, Gao Xian would not refuse. He just wanted to find a related company to be a shareholder. He asked casually, has the name of the new company been decided?

Mark Rich shook his head, "Not yet. It hasn't been long since he stabilized. He didn't have time to think about it in detail. Does Sir Gao have any good suggestions?"

Gao Xian did his part and gave the idea brilliantly, Global Energy Commodity Resources - Global Energy Commodity Resources, abbreviated as Glencore - Glencore, how about it?

Mark Ritchie’s eyes are shining, good name, good name, it’s called Glencore!
