Under the service of the two girls, Fang Lang took off the pajamas he had just put on and put on a crisp suit again. After a long French kiss with the two girls, he reluctantly walked out of the room and headed to the reception room.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw three members of the Morgan family puffing away in the living room. Fang Lang smiled helplessly and said:
"Mr. Charles Morgan, you are really old and strong. You are not at home to take a good rest at this time, but you still have the energy to fight back."
When the three of them saw Fang Lang coming in, they all smiled and stood up to greet Fang Lang.
"Alas! It's not your suggestion that makes me sleepy and sleepless. It's better to negotiate it earlier so that I can sleep peacefully and peacefully."
Charles Morgan spoke directly without any hesitation.
Fang Lang didn't mind, and went directly to shake hands and hug several people one by one.
After everyone sat down, Fang Lang also took out a cigar, trimmed it and asked knowingly:
"It's too urgent for us to talk about this business tomorrow! Besides, Alvin is not here now, so even if we talk about it, it won't count!"
Halken Morgan smiled when he heard this and said:
"Fang, we do not speak secretly. Considering the relationship between us, we certainly hope that both of us can reach an agreement first and then talk to Alvin Rockefeller together. Isn't it more beneficial to us?"
Hearing this, Fang Lang smiled, kept moving his hands, picked up a long match, lit it, and lit his cigar. At this time, he was negotiating with the three members of the Morgan family alone, so he still took a puff of cigar. Be careful to avoid falling into the trap set by the three.
Fang Lang was not surprised when he heard Halken Morgan eager to get straight to the point. He flicked the extinguished match, picked up the cigar and took a deep puff before saying slowly:
"Oh! I wonder what you guys want to do?"
Hiding his eyes in the smoke, Fang Lang carefully observed the expressions of the three people. Halken Morgan winked at Ally Morgan, indicating that Ally Morgan, who had the closest relationship with Fang Lang, would do the talking.
Fang Lang saw everything in his eyes and began to think about what was best for him.
Eli Morgan, who received Halken Morgan's hint, coughed lightly and slowly said:
"Fang, what we mean is that we want to re-establish a European Development Bank, with our Morgan Bank as the major shareholder and chairman. You and the Rockefeller family will each hold 25% of the shares. What do you think?"
Fang Lang guessed that the Morgan family found him overnight, and they must have wanted to get the maximum benefit, but what he didn't expect was that the other party was so eager to swallow half of the shares, which forced Fang Lang to see the capitalist again. of greed.
For Fang Lang personally, he didn't want to get a large stake in this bank's business this time. After all, his strength was far from the level of big families like the Morgan family and Rockefeller.
But Morgan now wants to get the same shares for himself and Rockefeller. Don't say what he thinks. Rockefeller will probably spit in Morgan's face after knowing this distribution ratio.
Therefore, he said unceremoniously:
"I don't think so. Mr. Morgan, we are friends, and this business is still my proposal. Now you want the Morgan consortium to take the lion's share. This is unfair to me and the Rockefeller family.
Moreover, I think that talking to me now will have no effect at all. After all, in the absence of Mr. Rockefeller, the results of our current discussions cannot be regarded as the final result. "
Hearing Fang Lang's direct and merciless rejection, Eli Morgan's expression froze, and he couldn't help but look at the patriarch next to him, Mr. Charles Morgan.
Charles Morgan seemed unaware of Eli Morgan's gaze. He was still smoking the cigar in his mouth as if this cigar was a rare delicacy in the world.
Halken Morgan, who was on the side, saw that Eli Morgan had rested his breath, and felt a little dissatisfied. After glaring at Eli Morgan, he laughed and said:
"Fang, if you are not satisfied with your share ratio, we can talk about it! Can you tell me how many shares you want?"
Fang Lang watched the eye contact between the people in front of him calmly. In just a short moment, Fang Lang understood that Eli Morgan must have been dragged over by the other two people to play the emotional card with him. After all, the two of them The relationship between people is the closest among several people.
The scheming patriarch, Charles Morgan, should be the mastermind behind the scenes. By not speaking up at this time, he probably wanted to wait until Halken Morgan reached a point where the conversation could no longer continue, and then come forward to smooth things over.
The whole is a complete negotiation team, but Fang Lang only has one person, which will put him at a clear disadvantage. Fang Lang didn't want to start negotiations in this situation, so he shook his head and said:
"If you asked me what percentage of shares I wanted, I would tell you that I wanted to be the majority shareholder. But needless to say, none of you would agree.
Therefore, I think it is better for everyone to go back and rest early, and when everyone is here tomorrow, we can discuss this issue together with the greatest sincerity. "
Now that Halken Morgan is here, he definitely doesn't want to let Fang Lang go like this, so he waved his hand and said:
"Fang, you have to understand, it's not that we want to take the lion's share. It's that our Morgan family started in finance. Banking business is our old profession, and we have an advantage in this regard.
Moreover, our Morgan consortium has long had business relationships with central banks in European countries. If our Morgan family comes forward to communicate with them, we can gain their trust. "
Fang Lang agreed very much with what Halken Morgan said, which was why Fang Lang proposed his plan in front of several members of the Morgan family.
In fact, Fang Lang had already planned for this bank project. He knew that with his own strength, he was unable to occupy a large share, but he was not willing to let the Morgan family dominate.
This will make him a dispensable party, and the Morgan family can get rid of him at any time and stop playing with him. That's why he brought the Rockefellers with him.
With the existence of the Rockefeller family, it is impossible for the Morgan family to abandon him and start a new business on their own.
Just when he was annoyed that the Morgan family members were pressing too hard, the door of the reception room was knocked again.
Fang Lang said impatiently:
"What's the matter? Tell me."
The voice of the butler Zolf Henry came from outside the door.
"Boss, Mr. Alvin Rockefeller wants to see you."
Fang Lang was stunned when he heard this. What's going on with these guys? They all like to connect in private? This is true for several members of the Morgan family, and so is Alvin Rockefeller.
Perhaps Rockefeller had set up spies in his family's manor, and when Morgan and the others arrived, he got wind of it.
However, this is good, at least I don’t have to face the three Morgan family members by myself like now.
When the three Morgans heard that Alvin Rockefeller had arrived, their expressions changed. The reason why they came back to talk to Fang Lang in the middle of the night was to get rid of Rockefeller and reach an agreement with Fang Lang first. Unexpectedly, the other party also I thought of something with myself.
This made several people feel a little embarrassed. Halken Morgan looked at Fang Lang with suspicion, wondering whether the other party had reached an agreement with Rockefeller long ago. It was Fang Lang who informed him this time.
However, looking at Fang Lang's expression of surprise, which seemed a little different, they were a little unsure for a moment. But they couldn't stop thinking about it.
Of course, Fang Lang couldn't miss this situation that was beneficial to him. Without waiting for Morgan and others to react, he said directly:
"Then please invite Mr. Alvin Rockefeller to come over too!"
The butler Zolf Henry outside the door received clear instructions, so he stopped staying and responded directly:
"Okay, sir."
Then I heard footsteps leaving the door.
Fang Lang turned his head and glanced at the three Morgans in the room, smiled bitterly, shook his head and said:
"It seems that my wish to go back early to spend time with my girlfriend tonight will come to nothing."
The three of them also shook their heads helplessly, and Eli Morgan also sighed and said:
"It seems that our wish will also come true."
Fang Lang raised the corners of his mouth slightly when he heard this and smiled unconsciously.
Then I heard Halken Morgan say in a serious tone:
"Mr. Fang, we are friends, and Mr. Alvin Rockefeller hasn't arrived yet. I wonder if you can tell us the truth, what is your bottom line?"
Looking at the somewhat aggressive Halken Morgan speechlessly, Fang Lang shrugged and said:
"To be honest, I just thought of this matter on the spur of the moment, so I didn't think about my bottom line. But I personally feel that since everyone is cooperating, it's best to be fair.
If it can be distributed equally, it is better to distribute it equally. "
After several contacts with Halken Morgan, Fang Lang really didn't like the chairman of Morgan Company. This person gave him a feeling of being superior.
He often speaks in an aggressive manner, which vividly displays the greedy nature of a businessman, which makes Fang Lang very disgusted.
Therefore, Fang Lang didn't want to answer the other party's question seriously at all. Talking about equal distribution was obviously perfunctory. Fang Lang, who is doing business, knows very well that if a company really distributes its shares equally among shareholders, the company will not go far at all.
After all, every shareholder has different ideas. If the shares are equal, then everyone has equal say. In this case, the company will become a mess with no direction.
But after Halken Morgan heard Fang Lang's words, he seemed to believe them, and said directly with a dissatisfied tone:
"Fang, this is impossible."
Before he could finish his words, the wily Charles Morgan interrupted him directly:
"Okay, let's not ask about the partners' bottom line. Since Mr. Alvin Rockefeller is also here, let's talk openly together!"
It has to be said that Charles Morgan is indeed an old fox. Based on his understanding of Halken Morgan, he can know that what he wants to say must be offensive to people without him having to say it out loud.
Now is the time to cooperate with Fang Lang. If you offend the other party, you will be causing trouble for yourself. This is completely unnecessary. It may push Fang Lang into an alliance with Rockefeller.
Of course, Fang Lang could hear what Halken Morgan didn't say. Maybe he was trying to persuade himself not to have delusional thoughts. This made Fang Lang frown, but at this time, he was the one who wanted to make money. It was a good opportunity to make a lot of money, and he didn’t want to affect his plans to make a fortune because of a fool like Halken Morgan.
The worst case scenario is that we will find an opportunity in the future to let this arrogant guy get out of his current position. With his character and without his current status, he might just disappear into obscurity.
But Fang Lang still turned his attention to Eli Morgan, who was standing aside, and clearly told him his dissatisfaction.
After Eli Morgan saw Fang Lang's gaze, he didn't say much. He could only show a wry smile to Fang Lang. All of this fell into the eyes of Charles Morgan.
At this moment, he also felt that Halken Morgan was too unqualified as the chairman of Morgan Company.
Fang Lang did not continue to pay attention to Halken Morgan's meaning and ignored him directly. However, when he blew out the smoke, a pair of eyes hidden behind the smoke inadvertently revealed a dangerous edge.
For a moment, the reception room fell into an eerie silence.
Fortunately, this atmosphere was quickly broken by a knock on the door.
"Sir, Mr. Rockefeller said."
After hearing this, Fang Lang stood up from the sofa. His expressionless face just now was instantly replaced by a smile, and he opened his arms while walking toward the door.
He laughed loudly and said:
"Haha. Mr. Rockefeller, you are finally here."
After saying that, he hugged the other person fiercely, and also patted the other person's back twice, as if to tell the other person that I can't stand it anymore if you don't come.
When he saw the situation in the room, Rockefeller could not understand what Fang Lang meant. Looking at the three Morgans in the room, a hint of haze flashed in his eyes.
But he said with a smile on his face:
"Haha. It turns out that everyone hasn't left yet!"
The three Morgans had also stood up early, and came forward to shake hands and hug Rockefeller with smiles on their faces.
"Yes! Yes! Although Fang's manor is luxurious, it is still far away from the city, so we might as well spend the night here and go back during the day tomorrow.
Why is Mr. Rockefeller back at this time? "
"Alas! As I get older, my memory gets worse. Isn't it because I left my meerschaum pipe at the party? Without my meerschaum pipe, I couldn't sleep at all.
So, I had no choice but to come back and look for it. Fortunately, their butler had already found my pipe for me. "
Alvin Rockefeller said, and raised his hand to show the cigarette butt in his hand to everyone.
Halken Morgan muttered something sinister,
"That's such a coincidence."
It's a pity that no one paid attention to his words. Everyone was tacitly pretending to be polite. Who doesn’t know the actual situation well?
Fang Lang even laughed loudly and said:
"Haha. It's just right now. We are all on our own. Since we are reunited by chance, why not take advantage of this time to come up with a charter for the bank formation plan that provides loans, so as to avoid long nights and nightmares."
