I Have A Wizard World
Chapter 74
Wall Street is in Manhattan. A short street is the financial center of the United States and even the world.
There are countless financial oligarchs, bankers and chaebols here. The Rockefeller consortium is one of them.
The second floor of the Ritz Carlton Hotel.
When Fang Cheng came down with Xia Yuxuan, the reception had begun. Joseph said it was for Fang Cheng, but in fact, it was obviously not the case.
At the reception, most of them are old men over half a hundred years old, followed by a young and beautiful woman. They either get together in twos and threes, or a large group of people surround one, where they flatter constantly and all kinds of life come on stage here.
Young waiters dressed in black-and-white tuxedos walked around the crowd with fruit plates, delicious food or drinks in their hands, constantly serving these capitalists.
It''s really corrupt, but I like it. Fang Cheng shows a smile at the corners of his mouth. Not far away, Joseph was surrounded by a group of young and beautiful women. Looking at his talking, he was obviously an old hand.
"Joseph." Fang Cheng shouted.
"Fang, I''m really sorry," Joseph turned his head, immediately got rid of the woman around him and came over with an apologetic face. "We''ll start before you arrive."
Fang Cheng naturally knew that he was not the center of the reception. He smiled and said, "don''t say that. We should be late."
Joseph was relieved to see that his partner was not angry. He didn''t expect Fang Cheng to be late.
"Who is that?" Fang Cheng looked at the middle-aged man in the reception center. As soon as the topic changed, he asked Joseph.
"Robert." Joseph said in Fang Cheng''s ear quickly.
Looking at Fang Cheng''s puzzled eyes, Joseph was stunned for a moment and continued to explain: "he is the largest arms dealer in the world. This time he came to Wall Street to publicize and want to raise their company''s share price."
Fang Cheng understood Joseph''s meaning. Recently, the United States and Laos have not fought much war, but some local conflicts. In addition, there are arms dealers from various countries and their own countries robbing business. Their life is not very easy.
But no matter how hard it is, it can''t shake their name as the world''s No. 1 arms supplier of Lockheed Martin. As the president and executive director of the company, Robert is still the center of the party. A man or a beautiful woman came to propose a toast frequently, and Robert was able to cope with it. Obviously, he had rich experience in this occasion.
At the reception, even Joseph''s limelight was overshadowed by him. After all, Joseph is only a director of the Rockefeller consortium, not the person in charge of the consortium. His father Mellon is almost standing here.
"Let''s go and say hello, too." Joseph said in Fang Cheng''s ear.
Fang Cheng nodded at the speech and said to Xia Yuxuan: "I''ll go there."
"Yes." Xia Yuxuan nodded gently.
Joseph also smiled kindly at Xia Yuxuan. He knew the etiquette of the East and didn''t get too close to Xia Yuxuan.
They walked towards Robert.
"Uncle Robert." When Joseph approached, he gave a friendly shout.
"Oh, look who''s here. Here comes our gold digger on Wall Street." Seeing Joseph, Robert joked. It was obvious that they were very familiar.
Robert is actually in his fifties, but he may be good at maintenance. He still looks like a middle-aged man. He was wearing a black tuxedo and a bow. He looked a little funny. His golden hair was a little gray. The most impressive thing was that his eyes were as sharp as falcons.
Joseph heard Robert''s words and smiled bitterly: "Uncle Robert, don''t make fun of me."
"Ha ha." Robert laughed at Joseph''s complaint.
After a joke, Robert turned his head and looked at Fang Cheng: "who is this?"
"Let me introduce you. This is my partner, Fang Cheng, chairman of Yuncheng intelligent technology."
"Fang Cheng, this is Mr. Robert, President of Lockheed Martin." Joseph briefly introduced each other.
"Hello, Mr. Robert." Fang Cheng stretched out his right hand to Robert.
"Hello, Mr. Fang." When Robert faced the outsider, his face became serious, not like a joke just now. "I''ve been thunderstruck by the smart spirit of Mr. Fang''s company for a long time."
When Robert heard Joseph talking about Yuncheng technology, he didn''t know who Fang Cheng was. He was the chairman of the world''s first artificial intelligence company that had been making a lot of noise on Wall Street some time ago.
Robert''s expression finally became serious. Although Fang Cheng''s company is far from his enterprise, no one dares to underestimate the potential of Yuncheng technology. No one can guarantee whether this will be the next apple.
Thinking of this, Robert handed Fang Cheng a business card. After Fang Cheng took it with both hands, he also handed his own business card.
Robert looked at it solemnly, put it in his coat pocket, smiled and said, "Mr. Fang, remember to visit our company next time you come to New York."
Then he raised his glass to Fang Cheng. Fang Cheng also raised his glass and took a sip.
Joseph saw the scene and said with a smile, "you two talk first. I''ll go to other places first." Then he nodded slightly and left.
After Robert and Fang Cheng saw Joseph off.
Fang Cheng took the initiative and said, "Mr. Robert, in fact, I do have some business to talk to you." Robert listened and made a gesture of invitation.
Fang Cheng pondered for a moment, sorted out his words and said, "I have a research project in the pasar islands, but you know, the pasar islands is not a country with stable regime. Therefore, I may need a batch of weapons to protect the security of the project."
Then Fang Cheng looked at Robert with a smile.
Robert listened to Fang Cheng''s words and looked a little hesitant: "Mr. Fang, why don''t you hire a professional mercenary?"
"I believe in my own people more than mercenaries." Fang Cheng raised his glass and explained with a smile.
To be honest, Robert doesn''t know this place very well, but he knows it is a small island country in the South Pacific.
"Of course, I''ll give you the list of weapons sold by our company later. You can choose whatever you like."
Robert is a businessman. Fang Cheng doesn''t buy arms in the United States. He can''t manage many things that make money. Why not do it? These people even set off a world war in order to sell weapons. They can''t take care of other people''s lives. Besides, he doesn''t think Fang Cheng can buy much arms.
Fang Cheng was particularly happy when he saw Robert nodding. He didn''t think that his main purpose of coming to the United States was so easily achieved.
In fact, Fang Cheng thinks too much. If it''s an ordinary person, let alone ask him Robert to buy arms, it''s very difficult to see him. But Fang Cheng is different. On the one hand, he is a partner introduced by Joseph. He is half his own person. In addition, the prospect of his own company is very promising. When talking about business, it is natural to have a good wind and water.
This is the benefit of contacts.
