Chapter 509 Making Friends
Only when he got closer to this building could Yang Jing feel a sense of simplicity from it.

This is the smell of time, and it is rare now. Even in some ancient cities in China, it is rare to see such buildings that are close to a hundred years old.

This building is a typical Georgian style building. This architectural style was derived from the Italian Renaissance style after it was introduced to the UK in 1700. It adheres to the symmetrical and harmonious style of classicism and is widely used in various colonial areas in the UK. It has been popular in the country for a long time.

This architectural style is the most influential style in the United States. Many old manors or villas in the United States are deeply influenced by this style. After all, most of the earliest Americans came from Great Britain on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.

Obviously, when Andrew Mellon built this building, he was also deeply influenced by this architectural style.

The Georgian style pays the most attention to the "facade", whether it is the front door or the porch, there is a kind of low-key luxury.

Standing at the gate was a Caucasian couple. The man was tall and a little fat, and the woman was a little thin, but had an excellent temperament.

"This is Mr. and Mrs. Schaife." Bloomberg finished the introduction in a low voice in Yang Jing's ear, and walked up enthusiastically.

"Hey, Michael, thank you very much for being able to attend today's reception." Schaife greeted Bloomberg very happily when he saw Bloomberg.

After the two exchanged a few words, Bloomberg introduced with a smile: "Richard, let me introduce a friend to you. This is Mr. Cole Smith, the owner of KY Investment Fund. Cole, this is Richard. Mr. Chad Mellon Skefe, this is his wife, the forever young and beautiful Elizabeth Skeve."

Hearing Bloomberg's introduction, Schaife's eyes lit up immediately, he reached out and took Yang Jing's hand and shook it vigorously a few times, and said, "Cole, you don't mind if I call you that?"

Yang Jing shook his head with a smile, "Why? My friends call me that."

"Well, you can also call me Richard like Michael, and my friends call me that too. Nice to meet you, Cole, I have heard Michael mention you a long time ago, and it is my honor to finally meet you today. "

Yang Jing smiled modestly, "Richard, you are too modest."

For Yang Jing, Schaife is really not polite. In the stock market crash that broke out more than ten days ago, the Mellon family also lost a lot. If it weren't for this KY investment fund that turned out to be a huge sum of money to buy back stocks , and drive the market to stabilize and rebound, the losses of the Mellon family may be even greater.

Moreover, KY Investment Fund is now the largest investment institution of Alcoa and Pittsburgh Steel. KY Investment Fund's shareholding in these two companies controlled by the Mellon family has played a vital role in stabilizing the company's stock prices.

In particular, this KY investment fund knows how to advance and retreat very well, and it is extremely appropriate, just like the shares of Alcoa. This investment fund could obviously buy back more shares of Alcoa during the stock market crash, but they bought it About 6.5% of the shares stopped.These shares have little effect on the Mellon family's control of Alcoa, but they have a large impact on ordinary shareholders and other investors.

Such an investment fund with strong capital has settled in Alcoa with great fanfare, which will play a leading role in re-establishing confidence in Alcoa for ordinary shareholders and other investors.

Although KY Investment Fund started buying shares when Alcoa's valuation fell by more than 41%, which made their acquisition cost cheap, Scaife didn't mind them doing so.

After all, KY Investment Fund is a private investment profit-making institution, why would they buy your stocks if they are not profitable?

Compared with the role of KY investment funds in boosting Alcoa's valuation, their low-priced purchases of Alcoa stocks are nothing at all.If it weren't for them, Alcoa, whose market value is close to 200 billion U.S. dollars, suddenly plummeted by 41%, which would really cause huge losses to the Mellon family.

It is no exaggeration to say that because the KY investment fund was born, those big consortiums like the Mellon consortium have to bear the kindness of this fund, especially the old men of the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family. in this way.

If it weren't for this KY investment fund, let alone the Mellon family, the Morgan and Rockefeller families would have suffered even greater losses!
It's just that this KY investment fund that turned out to be born out of nowhere is really mysterious. Whether it's the huge bailout funds that can be called huge amounts, or the origin of this investment fund, they are all very mysterious.

The most important thing is that this investment fund rarely uses the accounts of those big banks in the United States. Most of their funds come from banks in Switzerland, so no matter whether it is the Mellon family, the Morgan family, or the Rockefeller family, I can't figure out the specific information of this fund.I just know that this sudden investment fund currently has an astonishingly huge amount of liquidity in several major American banks.

Among other things, the current market value of the stocks of the 27 companies controlled by this fund is already an extremely terrifying figure.

Therefore, whether it is the Mellon family or several other major consortiums, they are all extremely interested in this investment fund that is now enough to influence the form of Wall Street.

Unexpectedly, the owner of this mysterious fund actually appeared here.

It's also strange that Bloomberg didn't tell Schaefer who the invitation was for when he asked for the invitation before. This guy only said that he wanted to give Schaefer a surprise. Sure enough, this surprise was not small!
Skyefe also really wanted to make friends with this mysterious man with amazing wealth.

People who have reached their status of wealth know best how much influence huge wealth can bring.Although Schaife had never heard of this Cole Smith before, he would definitely put this tycoon with huge wealth on an equal footing with himself, or even higher.

No way, Shi Kaifu, who was born in a big family, knows very well that in a social system where capital is king, whoever controls more capital is more powerful.Even though this Cole Smith was unknown before, Schaife is also very clear that now, in terms of this Cole Smith's terrifying net worth, as long as he is willing, he will immediately become one of the top few people in the United States. one.

It is even no exaggeration to say that even the president of the United States, a tycoon of this level can be ignored.Just like the big shots of the Mellon family.

Not only the Mellon family, but those big figures from the Rockefeller, Morgan, and DuPont families, who would really put the president in their eyes?
Being able to make friends with such a tycoon with huge wealth is definitely only good for the Mellon family and has no harm.

Therefore, the Schaife couple showed great enthusiasm for Yang Jing, and they even didn't care about entertaining some other guests.Among them, after James Baker, the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, came here, the Skefes and his wife ignored him, but asked another person in charge of reception in the family to receive these guests.

James Baker, who is the U.S. treasury secretary, has no choice but to ignore the Skefes and his wife. BOSS Reagan is here, and he is nothing in front of such a big family with deep roots and leaves.

Not to mention that the tall Schaefer in front of him is also recognized as the "right-wing king" in the American political circle. This guy's influence in the American political circle is even greater than that of the president. .

James Baker is not qualified to move forward, but it does not mean that others are not qualified to move forward.

Today is the commemorative reception of Mr. Richard Beatty Mellon's 130th birthday, so many big figures who are rarely seen in ordinary times have appeared here. Among them, representatives of the top ten financial groups in the United States are all here.

These representatives are all banner figures in their respective families or consortiums, otherwise they would not have received the personal invitation letter from Mr. Richard King Mellon. The two banner figures of the Mellon family are all present today It's time for the reception, and those big families and consortiums must send corresponding figures to attend today's reception.

In this Vanity Fair, you must abide by the various rules in this Vanity Fair.

But when these big men came to this ancient manor, they found that one of today's protagonists, and one of the current core figures of the Mellon family, Schaife, was standing at the door and had a pleasant conversation with a strange man. , Even Finance Minister Baker and the bosses of several other companies came and didn't bother to entertain them.

Who is this mysterious man?How can you make Schaife look so high?

You know, as a well-known "right-wing king" in American politics, Schaife has a behemoth like the Mellon family poking behind him. His vision is quite high. For him, a person with a personal net worth of less than one billion dollars That's just an ordinary person.

But what the hell is this scene in front of me?

Driven by curiosity, those big shots came together one after another.In terms of their status, they are fully qualified to be on an equal footing with Schaefe, and there are even a few of them who are really big men whom Schaefe needs to look up to.

For example, Harry Morgan, the son of Henry Morgan who founded Morgan Stanley, for example, Lawrence Rockefeller, the third-generation banner figure of the Rockefeller family known as the "father of venture capital" on Wall Street, for example, the banner of the DuPont family Sexual figures Chris DuPont, such as Michael Reed, the current chairman of Citibank
Take any one of these people, they are big figures who can be on an equal footing with Schaife and even need Shi Kaifu to look up to. When they approached, Shi Kaifu could only greet him with a smile.

Then, when these big shots learned that this mysterious man turned out to be the boss of the KY investment fund, there were several more famous big shots in front of the gate of this ancient building.
