Chapter 520: Sending propositions to the old beauty
In the basement of the villa, Ye Hua made a pot of tea and sat on a chair, with his legs crossed on the table and silently looking at the complex information displayed on the holographic panel in front of him.
Xiaoyin unfolded a piece of information and read:
"Rockefeller opened an oil refinery in Cleveland in 1863. Based on the plant in 1870, he expanded it to form Mobil Oil Company. It soon monopolized the American oil industry and used it to obtain huge profits, investing in the financial industry and manufacturing industry, and expanding the economy.
The strength is developing rapidly.”
"In 1935, the total assets of the Rockefeller family were only US$6.6 billion. By 1960, they had increased to US$82.6 billion, an increase of 11.5 times in 25 years. They then continued to achieve tremendous development, and in 1974, the total assets increased to US$330.5 billion.
It has surpassed the Morgan family and ranks first among the top ten financial groups in North America. There are 16 largest oil companies in North America, 8 of which belong to the Rockefeller family."
"Among the known Rockefeller family estates are: Rockefeller Center, Rockefeller Estate, International Apartments, College of William and Mary, Colonial Williamsburg, Museum of Modern Art, Riverside Church, Cloisters Museum, Church of God Association, Chase Manhattan
One Plaza, Empire State Plaza, GE Building, Lincoln Center, World Trade Center, Embarcadero Center, Beckman Plaza, 740 Park Avenue, Bassett Hall, Forest Hills Historic District, Rockefeller Reserve, Home of Golf.”
"Currently, the total assets of the Rockefeller Foundation are estimated to be in the range of US$294 billion."
Ye Hua held the teacup in his hand and stared at the information panel in front of him: "I'm afraid the wealth of traditional European and American families has really declined."
Not an absolute value, but a relative value.
At its peak, the Rockefeller family claimed to own one-fortieth of the U.S. GDP, or 2.5% of the GDP, which is equivalent to more than 600 billion U.S. dollars in today's currency.
But this is destined to be short-lived, because it has since experienced two industrial revolutions, the information revolution and the technological revolution, and the traditional financial oligarchs have generally weakened.
The rumored mythical Rothschild family was also revealed to have only thirty to forty billion U.S. dollars in wealth, which is a fact comparable to that of the domestic Lao Wang family. Ye Hua believes that this figure is relatively real.
After all, the Rothschild family is no longer able to control this corner of Europe, and even now the whole of Europe is no different than a down-and-out aristocrat.
In comparison, Ye Hua pays more attention to the Morgan family. The only traditional European and American chaebol that makes him feel confused is the Morgan family. Even Xiaoyin has difficulty finding the finances controlled by the current patriarch, Chris Morgan, but from the two
Judging from the fact that "Morgan One" only needs 5 billion US dollars, his wealth is at least more than 50 billion US dollars. Maybe Bill Gates is not as rich as him.
The entire family continues to this day, and the total assets of its consortium must be an unimaginable astronomical figure. Interestingly, no member of the Morgan family ranks at the top of the Forbes rich list. Even if they are worth 50 billion US dollars, they still rank at the top.
Entered the top 20 rich list.
"These Jewish people..." Ye Hua muttered and took a sip of tea.
However, even though the traditional financial groups in Europe and the United States with a history of more than 100 years are now in decline, it seems that the wealth of upstarts such as Microsoft, Facebook, Amazon, Google, etc. can compete with these established families, and even from a numerical perspective, they can completely overwhelm them.
pass them.
In fact, this is absolutely not the case. The rising new rich are indeed very shining, and their wealth is very clear. Most of them are falsely high, and the bubble is relatively bigger.
However, it is difficult to use intuitive data to show how much global resource allocation power and influence those established chaebol families have.
This is too difficult to calculate. First of all, many assets such as the military industry and aerospace cannot be calculated. Some of them are only controlled by the United States and will not be calculated as assets or are not made public. These are basically in the hands of consortiums.
Secondly, intangible assets are even more difficult to calculate. For example, OPEC says that all its assets are all the oil in the Arab region, but the price of each barrel of oil is decided by the oil exporting organization. This kind of intangible influence is what those
The most important core foundation of the consortium is that they have the ability to partially monopolize a certain aspect. This is the consortium, not a few lines of certain numbers.
While Ye Hua was thinking about where to start for a long time, Xiaoyin suddenly reported: "Master, Commissioner Pound is here. Do you want to see him?"
"See."
Putting down his legs on the table and placing the teacup in his hand on the table, Ye Hua stood up and walked out of the basement.
After leaving the basement, Ye Hua came to the main hall of the inner room and saw the eager expectant and longing eyes of the girls. They were actually still together.
"Uh... there is an important guest here with important things. I have to meet him first." After a brief explanation, Lao Pang did not go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Ye Hua looked around at the women and said with a smile: "Wait a minute.
How about playing a cosplay game later? That’s it!”
After saying this and giving the girls a waiting look, it seems that it is impossible for them not to be ripped off today. Fortunately, I can withstand the pressure without pressure.
…
"You look good. I feel relieved. It seems that the 627 attack did not have much impact on you."
In the reception room, Pang De, who was already sitting in a seat, couldn't help but smile when he saw Ye Hua approaching. The latter came to the seat opposite him, sat down, and said concisely: "It would be unworthy of a gentleman not to avenge this!"
When Pang De heard this, he was surprised and asked: "Brother Ye, have you found out anything?"
Ye Hua nodded, but changed the topic: "Let's talk about you first, Lao Pang, what's the matter with coming here this time?"
Hearing this, Pang De smiled and said: "It's not a big deal. The main thing is to come to visit you on behalf of the capital. Although you have returned to China safe and sound, the impact of the 627 incident is extremely bad. The capital is also extremely angry about it. Currently, it is with North America."
The authorities are making stern representations, and this matter must be investigated, and it must not be left undisturbed without cause."
"Old Pang, please also say for me, thank you for your concern, Chief."
Pound returned to the previous topic and asked. Ye Hua thought deeply for a moment, and then said decisively: "I decided to sue the North American government in the name of Coastline Group, and I have to do it quickly. The current American emperor is in a hurry and will make mistakes in the process.
"
"Sue the United States?" Pound looked at him in shock.
"I have identified the person behind the 627 incident and have obtained reliable evidence. I am still collecting more evidence. Half of the consortiums in North America participated in this operation, including Morgan, Citigroup, Rockefeller, and Mellon."
Ye Hua said slowly.
"Is this true?" Pang De said in shock.
"Things are not difficult to investigate. Many times people tend to subjectively complicate a simple matter, and scientific thinking is a process of simplifying the complex. The essence of this assassination is nothing more than to see
Whose money do I make, how do I make it, who’s cake I’ve eaten before, whose job I’ve taken away, it’s that simple.”
Seeing Ye Hua's affirmative nod, Pang De quickly reacted and calmed down: "It's very difficult and very difficult to handle."
Pang De naturally saw some of Ye Hua's thoughts. He was obviously preparing to take revenge on those consortiums or the Americans. However, the four major super chaebols in North America were involved, and the network was too huge.
"And Brother Ye, what does this have to do with your decision to sue the North American authorities?" Pound asked again.
"Haha, it will cause trouble and chaos for the Americans. Only when they are in trouble can they fish in troubled waters." Ye Hua chuckled. Old Pang had an inexplicable feeling that this young man was trying to trick people, and it was not an ordinary method. He had a premonition that the United States
Most people will suffer big losses.
Ye Hua continued: "This is what I think. In the name of the Coastline Group, I will first negotiate privately with the North American authorities, hand over the evidence to them and ask them to hand over the real culprit and bring him to justice. But there is no doubt that even if
It is irrefutable evidence that the North American authorities will not recognize, nor will they move, let alone dare to move, because the implications are too deep."
"Okay, then I will announce it, expose the matter, and see how North America can withstand the anger of the local people. I think Americans are very likely to take the opportunity to bite back, saying that our Coastline Group has been stealing American information for a long time.
, but there is no substantial evidence, then I will directly sue the US government. Of course, I will achieve my goal without him biting back. Anyway, I will expose this scandal and watch the US government explode."
"If we bite back, we will sue as I just said. If our coastline wins this lawsuit, it will be a failure for the North American authorities; if we lose, it will destroy the prestige of the North American judicial system."
Pound said blankly: "Are you sure things can go according to your perfect schedule?"
Ye Hua said nonchalantly: "I'm not sure. He plays his game and I play mine. I'll just hold two cards in my hand, or you can get me one or two plutocrats. Come down and let me see my sincerity."
Relieve your anger, this is how we understand the matter; or I will expose the scandal of the 627 incident."
"I can be satisfied with choosing the former, and I can be satisfied with choosing the latter. If this matter is revealed, life in the United States will be difficult this year and even next year. I am also satisfied. I just want Americans to know the fact that labor and management are not to be messed with.
If you mess with it, you have to pay the price."
Pound thought for a moment and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "These two multiple-choice questions, choosing any one of them is a proposition. Americans really shouldn't mess with you, haha. I guess I will regret it to death. I really deserve it."
He immediately added: "It's just Brother Ye, if you want to cause trouble to the United States, I think it's your revenge, which is understandable. But, where do you start talking about fishing? What kind of fish are you fishing for?"
