"Shi Zhijian, are you trying to trick me again?!" President Mark suddenly stood up and almost shouted, saying such words!
"Now I finally see who you are! You know that I have a very good relationship with Mr. Downey, and that my First Bank of France funds his investment, so you want to destroy the relationship between me and him. First, you seduced my daughter.
Then you used me to appear in front of the media, and now you go even further and put me directly on the fire! You are a despicable person!"
President Mark roared loudly without regard for dignity, and Sir Brown watched his performance expressionlessly.
Shi Zhijian was smiling as if he were watching a show. It wasn't until President Mark finished his roar that Shi Zhijian stood up and said, "Don't be impulsive. Please sit down and have a glass of wine!"
"Despicable villain!" Mark sat down, angrily picked up the red wine in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.
Shi Zhijian walked over, came to Mark's side, put his hand on his shoulder: "Calm down, I haven't finished speaking yet!"
"What else do you have to say?" When he thought about how he was being plotted by this young man, Shi Zhijian, Mark became furious.
"You said I plotted against you, why should I plot against you?"
"Does this need to be said?" Mark glared at Shi Zhijian, "You want me to betray Donny Rothschild and not let us, the First Bank of France, invest in his fund!"
Shi Zhijian smiled: "No! You are wrong!"
"Where did I go wrong?"
"I have never asked you to withdraw your capital. On the contrary, I want you to increase your investment. You will give Donnie as much as he wants!"
"Ah, what?" There was a sound, and Mark stood up from his seat in surprise. This was already the second time he had lost his composure today.
"What did you say? Did I hear you correctly? Not only did you not let me withdraw my capital, you also asked me to increase my investment?" Mark looked at Shi Zhijian in disbelief.
"You heard it right, that's what I said!"
Don't talk about Mark at this moment, even Sir Brown couldn't understand Shi Zhijian. He held his chin and watched the show silently.
"Why are you doing this?"
"You don't need to know the reason!" Shi Zhijian patted Mark on the shoulder, "You just need to know that even if I plot against you, Downey will not give up on you easily, so what should you do at this time?"
"How to do it?" Mark felt that he was being led by Shi Zhijian and immediately changed his mind, "You don't have to worry about what I want to do!"
"You should run to Mr. Downey now and explain everything that happened today, especially the relationship between you and me! Finally, in order to show your loyalty to him, you will generously increase your investment and take the initiative to take the money
Come out!" Shi Zhijian pierced Mark's heart every word.
"No! I will never do this! I can't play with bank money like this!" Mark suddenly had a sense of justice.
"Really? Anyway, I've told you everything I should teach you. As for what you do, it's up to you!" After speaking, Shi Zhijian patted Mark's shoulder again, "The phone is over there, do you still want to answer it?
?!"
The muscles on Mark's face twitched, his face was distorted, he gritted his teeth, stamped his feet and hurriedly ran to answer the phone.
Shi Zhijian smiled slightly at Brown.
Brown asked suspiciously: "What on earth are you doing?"
"Let's talk later!" Shi Zhijian remained mysterious.
Over there, Mark picked up the phone and hurriedly gathered his emotions, "Hello, I'm President Mark!"
"You're very good, Mr. Mark!" Downey said in a bad tone.
Mark felt guilty for a while, but before he could explain, he said, "You have only half an hour to come to my place. If you are late, you will bear the consequences!"
After saying that, there was a click and the phone was hung up.
Mark was stunned for a long time holding the phone until he was awakened by the blind tone on the other end. Then he hung up the phone unwillingly. His heart was in a mess and he didn't know what to do.
He walked back to the table feeling a little dejected.
"Mr. Mark, do you want to continue drinking?" Shi Zhijian picked up the red wine glass and sat on his seat to raise a glass to invite him.
Mark was in no mood and glared at Shi Zhijian fiercely.
Shi Zhijian shrugged: "It seems that you are in a bad mood, so Sir Brown and I will no longer try to stay! Please do it!"
Mark snorted coldly, looked at Sir Brown and said, "I'm sorry, Sir, I still have some things to do here..."
"I know," Brown interrupted him very understandingly, "Private matters are important. We didn't get to have a good drink this time. Let's talk about it next time when we have a chance!"
Mark nodded, "Thank you!" Then he bowed and backed away, turned around and walked out quickly.
Looking at the lonely back of President Mark, Sir Brown picked up the red wine and gently clinked glasses with Shi Zhijian from a distance: "You are really so bad. Look at how angry you are making our President Mark, he can't even walk unsteadily!"
Shi Zhijian smiled slightly: "I have done everything I need to do, and I have said everything I need to say. Next, I will watch his solo performance!"
Brown: "Do you think he will follow your script?"
Shi Zhijian shook his head: "I don't know - after all, our President Mark is a strong man!"
Brown couldn't laugh or cry, "You, you! It's just that I don't understand something. You should let Mark betray Downey and stop supporting him. Why do you want to do the opposite?"
Shi Zhijian smiled: "Because I can win! Now that I'm on the gambling table, all I want is to win the most chips!"
Brown was stunned, "Are you so confident?"
"Very much!" Shi Zhi vowed firmly.
"I can't understand you! I don't know if you are too crazy, too arrogant, or just a lunatic!"
In Sir Brown's view, Shi Zhijian and Downey are still far behind in terms of strength. Especially now that Downey has the support of the First Bank of France, his energy will be even stronger in the future.
Unable to bear it, Brown expressed his worries, "Dear Shi, I met you through Mr. Rockefeller, and I have always regarded you as my best friend since you came to France, so I want to remind you that this
This time you bet too much! The other party’s chips are stacking up more and more, how can you fight him?”
Shi Zhijian shrugged: "Don't forget, dear Brown, I am playing stock futures, and what makes me most satisfied with this gamble is that it has a mechanism that allows poor people to win against rich people, that is - the leverage mechanism
!”
Brown's heart skipped a beat, "Are you going too far? This is simply playing with fire!"
Shi Zhijian drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, with a hint of red at the corner of his mouth and a ferocious expression: "Playing with fire, that's exciting!"
…
"I'm going to die! I'm going to die! This time I was tricked by someone named Shi!" President Mark screamed all the way in the car, feeling that the most unlucky moment in his life was now.
"How could I tell that he is such a despicable, shameless and treacherous villain?" President Mark patted the steering wheel angrily.
The car beeped and soon arrived at the hotel where Mr. Downey was staying.
Mark got out of the car in a hurry, lifted up his sleeves and looked at the time. His watch showed twenty-seven minutes in the past!
"There are three minutes left! Damn it!" As soon as Mark remembered the agreed time with Mr. Downey, he looked up at the hotel building and hurried in!
At this moment, there were many people checking in in the hotel lobby. When the lobby manager saw Mark coming in, he was about to greet them, but Mark pushed him away and rushed towards the elevator.
There were many people riding the elevator, and just as it was about to close the door and go up, someone outside shouted: "Wait a minute!"
However, a couple who came to Paris for their honeymoon had not yet completed the formalities and asked everyone to wait a moment.
Mark didn't care about this and reached out to press the elevator button, but was scolded by the people next to him for not being a gentleman.
Mark was too lazy to pay attention to these people. He couldn't press the button. He was so anxious that he got off the elevator and ran up the stairs!
Thumb thump!
Mark thought of his green years when he was studying physical education in college. At that time, he was very good at running, but now his belly is big, his legs are weak, and he can't run anymore!
After only climbing three floors, he was out of breath! When he climbed to the eighth floor, he wanted to sit down and rest.
Reaching the sixteenth floor in one breath, he breathed a sigh of relief, held on to the corridor wall, and walked along the corridor towards Downey's Guest Room No. 1606!
The two black bodyguards at the door saw it and glanced at each other.
They knew Mark and knew that Downey was looking for him.
"Is Mr. Downey... inside?" President Mark was holding on to the wall, panting.
"Yes, he is here!"
"Okay, thank you!" Mark hurriedly walked over and knocked on the door.
Boom, boom, boom!
"Come in!" Downey's voice came from inside.
Mark wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt that his back was sticky and uncomfortable. He straightened his clothes, took a deep breath and walked in.
In the room, Donnie is playing indoor golf.
Next to him, financial tycoon Buffett was talking on the phone.
Snap!
Donnie swings and the golf ball flies out!
It hit the white cloth with a loud thud!
"Hello, Mr. Downey! I'm here!" Mark said.
"Stand still!" Donnie turned to Mark and said, "I asked you to come here in half an hour. How many minutes has it been now?"
"Uh, um..." Mark was stunned for a moment and looked at his watch, "It's just a minute late!"
"One minute? Then do you know how much money I can make and how many things I can do in this minute?" As he spoke, Donnie put the golf ball at his feet, aimed at Mark, and swung hard!
call out!
The golf ball is flying towards Mark!
Mark shrank in fear!
The golf ball grazed his cheek and hit the door behind him with a loud bang! Then it bounced away!
Mark opened his eyes, his face was pale, his back was dripping with cold sweat, and he felt like he had walked away from the door of life and death.
"This is your punishment! As a financier and the president of a bank, you should know how precious time is!" Donny said arrogantly as he leaned his club on the ground and looked at the frightened Mark.
Mark's lips turned Nono: "Well...thank you Mr. Downey for teaching me!"
Donnie smiled, threw the club away, pointed to the sofa and said to Mark, "Sit down! Do you want tea or coffee?"
"Coffee...coffee!" Mark hesitated and walked over and sat on the sofa.
At this time, Buffett also finished the phone call, came over and smiled at Mark: "Mr. President, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon. It's great!"
Mark smiled bitterly in his heart and said in his heart: "What a fart!"
…
Steaming hot coffee was served.
Mark sat on the sofa, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles, his body kept twisting and he felt uncomfortable no matter how he sat.
Fortunately, the female secretary knocked on the door and came in, bringing coffee and placing it in front of Mark.
Mark picked up the coffee nervously. Before he could take a sip, he heard Donnie say: "It looks like you have a good appetite."
"Huh?" Mark quickly put down the coffee.
Donnie was leaning on the boss's chair, with his feet raised on the table, facing Mark.
"Don't stop, my coffee is very good, and it's the easiest way to sober up!"
"Mr. Downey, I'm not-"
Donnie interrupted Mark: "What are you? Didn't you drink too much at Shi Zhijian's banquet? I saw you smelled of alcohol when you came. Is this wrong?" As he spoke, he picked up a big cigar and bit it.
In his mouth, he took out a lighter and lit it, using the flame to burn the cigar.
Mark was worried again: "I was plotted by Shi! He plotted against me from the beginning. He first seduced my daughter, then deliberately approached me, and even gave me a million-dollar BMW. I didn't understand these things from the beginning.
I refused, but he was too cunning, and in the end I fell into his trap!"
"Really? You reject him very much? Then why can't I see anything about this?" Donnie took a newspaper and threw it to Mark with a swish.
The newspaper fell on the ground. Mark bent down to pick it up. When he saw it, he was stunned!
The headline on the newspaper read: "President Mark wins a million-dollar BMW! His son-in-law is the third earl of Great Britain!"
There is a huge picture below. Mark and Shi Zhijian are leaning on each other, smiling like a couple on their honeymoon! Very sweet!
"At this time, I didn't know he was a bad guy! He tricked the reporters into taking pictures of these things! Yes, Mr. Downey, please don't be fooled!" Mark said excitedly.
Donnie didn't speak, he could only smoke his cigar coldly and blow a puff of thick smoke at Mark.
Buffett came out to smooth things over and said, "Mr. Mark, don't get excited. Mr. Downey still trusts you, otherwise he wouldn't have called you personally. Now I just want to know what Shi Zhijian asked you to do? Could it be that
Is it really just about drinking wine and tasting delicious food?"
Mark hesitated, not knowing what to say, and finally gritted his teeth and said truthfully: "In fact, it is true!"
Buffett was surprised for a moment, then turned to look at Downey.
Donnie smiled, took his feet away from the table, stood up and said, "Okay, that's really good! It turns out that guy surnamed Shi has used so many conspiracies and spent millions just to eat and drink with you.
!President Mark, you are so proud!" Downey walked up to Mark and looked down at him with a sneer on his lips.
Mark was anxious and quickly stood up and said: "Mr. Downey, believe me, I didn't lie! Everything I said is true! There is no lie!"
"Really?" Danny patted him on the shoulder, "Then tell me, how should I trust you?"
"Uh? This -" Mark was suddenly stunned. Suddenly Shi Zhijian's smiling face appeared in his mind. Shi Zhijian seemed to be saying to him, "I have thought out the lines for you to regain Donnie's trust!"
Do you really want to do this?
He was not willing to act according to Shi Zhijian's acting style!
