America's Road To Wealth Chapter 161

  Chapter 161 The most beautiful and rich man in China in the future

  The winter in Apple City came very early this year.

  The temperature began to drop in November, and the first snowstorm of the year came in mid-November.

  But this severe cold has not affected the fiery social activities of the upper classes in this city at all.

   As one of the upper classes in this city, billionaire D. Ted Lerner was on this night.

   Around half past six, sitting in his Rolls-Royce Phantom.

  Go to the Hilton Hotel in Midtown Manhattan.

  In the trunk.

   Except for the tall D. Ted Lerner himself.

   And one of his proudest and favorite children, his eldest, his eldest daughter, Miss D. Ikana Lerner.

  About two or three miles away from the Hilton Hotel, D. Ted Lerner's car was blocked in traffic.

  “. If it wasn't so cold. I think this distance, if we walk from home, it might be faster!”

  D. Ted Lerner looked out of the car window, in the dead car.

  He couldn't help muffled.

  His daughter, Ikana lolls beside him.

  After hearing what her father said, Ikana smiled lightly and said:

   "At this time, there will be a bit of traffic. But there is no need to rush, there should be enough time for us to reach the Hilton Hotel."

   Ted Lener nodded, and he looked at his daughter.

   Take Ted Lener, a former Playboy, who has experienced it.

  He still can't see what happened to his daughter.

   It was also related to the fact that my daughter went out with that **** yesterday, and it took a day and a night to go out.

   Ted Lener couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable with someone in his heart.

  The blond old man took a deep breath, and Ted Lener said softly:

   "Ikana, my baby. Do you really not want to tell me?"

   Ikana was startled, and turned to look at her father.

  I found that the expression on my father's face was very calm, and the pair of eyes with slightly white eye sockets looked at me seriously.

  Ikana couldn't help pursing her lips, she said softly:

   "Father, I don't know what you mean.."

   "I'm not being straightforward enough? I mean, how long will you keep from me about the matter between you and that kid?!" Ted Lener's voice became a little louder.

  Ikana moved anxiously in her seat.

   "Okay. I didn't want to hide it from you." Ikana said:

   "It's not wrong, just as you can see. He and I are in a relationship of boyfriend and girlfriend."

   "Oh~"

  Ikana saw her father, after hearing what she said.

  The thick and thick eyebrows are almost flying up.

   "I'll just say it. Hahaha~" Ted Lener laughed: "No one can escape the charm of my baby! He will get drunk under your skirt, that's a very normal thing!"

  In an instant, Ted Lener had already thought of at least a dozen ways to use this incident to increase his reputation and seek benefits in his mind.

   Including but not limited to hyping the relationship between oneself and "son-in-law".

  Or obtain financial support from Wall Street through the endorsement of the son-in-law.

  Or you can try to go to the "son-in-law" site, which is Texas to develop real estate.

   A bit realistic, but that's Ted Lener's character.

  Will value family affection, but don't mind using family affection to benefit yourself.

  Seeing his father beaming with joy, Ikana doesn't need to be a mind reader to know what his father is thinking.

  She knew her father too well.

   Just like her father, he also knows her very well.

   Ikana said, "Dad, it has to be said. It's not as easy as you think."

   "Huh?" Seeing his daughter's complicated expression, Ted Lener stopped thinking about each idea in his heart.

  He looked at Ikana: "My baby, what do you mean by that?"

   "I mean it's not as simple as you think."

  Ikana said calmly: "Let's put it this way, this **** is not just me."

   "Oh~ what is there to care about." Ted Lener was relieved when he heard this.

   In his opinion, Abel Smith was young, handsome, and most importantly, extremely rich.

   At the same time, the family background is also very deep.

  If a young man like this is not lustful, that is a big problem.

  I think back then when he was young, he was still very flamboyant.

   Now that I am old, I still play occasionally.

   In Tedlerner's view, this is not a big deal.

  As long as one's own daughter can become the other party's legitimate girlfriend.

  Even wife, Zhenggong, other women.

   As long as you don't make a baby, it's no big deal at all.

  Thinking of this, Ted Lener felt that he had to enlighten his daughter.

   lest Ikana let go of such a good diamond son-in-law.

   But at this time, Ted Lener's Rolls-Royce Phantom has slowly arrived at the door of the Hilton Midtown Hotel.

   "Oh~ here we are." Ted Lener smiled and said:

   "I think we can talk about this topic when we go back tonight. What do you think, baby?"

  Ikana is of course fine.

  After "getting" the Ikana.

  Ikana has figured out many things.

  She nodded and said, "Okay, let's go down first. I saw a car coming from behind."

  The father and daughter prepared specially at the hotel and got off the red carpet laid at the main entrance.

  Getting out of the car, a burst of flashing lights flashed in front of the father and daughter on the left and right.

   It turned out to be on the left and right sides of the hotel gate, a little outside.

   Two areas were surrounded and came out.

  A large number of media reporters and photographers are located in these two areas, just able to photograph and interview guests walking the red carpet.

  Ted Lener showed his iconic smile as soon as he got out of the car, and waved frequently with his right hand to the media reporters on both sides.

   "Oh~ it's Ted Lena, and his daughter Ikana!"

   "I didn't expect Smith to invite Ted Lener! I heard that Ted Lener's cash flow is very tight now, and he may go bankrupt again!"

   "Going bankrupt again? How many times is this? The seventh or eighth time?"

   "Please, it's not like you don't know that his daughter Ikana has been rumored to have an affair with Mr. Smith. Even if the rumor is false, Ikana can still get the invitation from Mr. Smith!"

   "Oh, I see. Ted Lena was able to participate in today's highest-level reception thanks to his daughter's blessing!"

  Sounds of discussion like this entered Ted Lena's ears without any politeness or disguise.

  Ikana's dear father, the corners of his mouth twitched when he heard it.

  Madfak!

   These dead paparazzi know how to bully me all day long!

   Ted Lener was depressed and angry, but there was nothing he could do.

  Because of multiple bankruptcies, and the persona I specially created on TV.

  When those well-known media reporters faced him, they were really not polite at all.

   This also gives him a particularly high exposure, which is also his purpose.

and

   Ted Lener took a deep look at the daughter next to him.

  The old man actually knew it too.

  I can appear here today because of my daughter.

   Ted Lener was depressed, but he was psychologically strong.

  He continued to stand up to the reporters' arguments, with a smile on his face, and walked inside with his daughter without changing his expression.

  Wait until you walk past two reporter phalanxes without hearing that kind of discussion.

   Ted Lener just couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

  Suddenly, I heard an exclamation from behind, and then the shutter sound of the camera several times denser than before kept ringing.

  The dazzling flash even flashed behind him as if it had just been thundered.

   Ted Lener couldn't help but glance back.

  He saw a tall, bald old white man in a suit and glasses getting off a Mercedes.

   Then stood on the red carpet, smiled and waved to the media reporters on the left and right sides.

  The shutter sound and flashing lights of the reporters were all caused by this man.

  Ted Lena also recognized the man's identity at a glance.

  Paulson, the CEO of Goldman Sachs who just took office last year!

   "Paulson is here too." Ted Lener whispered to his daughter in surprise:

   "I thought Goldman Sachs would only have one CFO at most! It seems that Goldman Sachs attaches great importance to Smith Capital!"

  Ikana smiled, surprised too.

   This is the CEO of Goldman Sachs, already one of the most powerful figures on Wall Street.

   It's just that unlike Ted Lena, she has a sense of pride.

  Look, the man my wife picked is just so powerful!

   His reception, even the CEO of Goldman Sachs has to come to attend in person!

  Replacing his father, at most he can only invite a Goldman Sachs CXO-level management.

   Surprise is surprise, pride is pride.

  The father and daughter walked into the hotel very quickly.

  In the interior of the hotel, the welcome personnel arranged by Smith Capital led the father and daughter to the elevator.

  In the elevator hall, Tedler and Ikana met David Mellon who was in charge of welcoming guests today.

   "Hey~David, good evening. You look really energetic tonight!" Ted Lener greeted from afar.

   David Mellon smiles and shakes hands with Ted Lener and Ikana.

   "You too, Mr. Lerner. You look in great spirits, too!"

   "Also welcome, Miss Ikana."

  Ikana smiled and nodded, and also greeted David Mellon.

  There were still many guests coming from behind, and the father and daughter didn't stay at the entrance of the elevator hall for long.

   Soon under the guidance of the waiter, take the high-speed elevator, which is worthy of the home of the reception tonight.

  It is located in the Hilton Golden Hall on the roof, an indoor space of about a thousand square meters.

   Abel attended the Hilton family's banquet last time, and it was also held in this place.

   The elevator was fast, and the father and daughter got out of the elevator.

   In front of you is the lively Hilton Golden Hall, where many people have already come.

   "Where is that kid? Your girlfriend is here, he should come over to greet you, right?"

   Ted Lener whispered to his daughter, while scanning the crowd, trying to find Abel.

  Ikana said: "Tonight is very important to him. I think he should value the guests more."

   "You're right." Ted Lener nodded, then pointed to the direction of twelve o'clock, pointing to a tall black man and said softly:

   "The loudest **** at Merrill Lynch is here. I wonder if David Komansky is here!"

  Ikana looked over quickly and saw that the **** in his father's mouth was referring to Stanley O'Neill of Merrill Lynch.

   Stanley O'Neill is one of the presidents of Merrill Lynch, but it is said that this influence in the company is greater than that of CEO David Komansky.

  Everyone said that if you want to do business with Merrill Lynch, you don't have to bother with David Komansky.

   Just look for Stanley O'Neill.

   "Dad, be careful." Ikana reminded her father softly.

   If such words are heard on such an occasion.

   Then it will be difficult to handle.

   In fact, Ted Lener does not discriminate against blacks like many whites.

  He himself has black friends, and one or two of them are particularly good friends, which belong to the kind of close friends.

   What Ted Lener discriminates against is only blacks with little ability and high positions.

   In Ted Lener's view, Merrill Lynch's Stanley O'Neal belongs to such black people.

  Hearing what his daughter said, Ted Lena pouted, but did not refute.

  He also knows that because of his big mouth, he has offended many people.

   "Oh~ he's there." Ted Lena suddenly heard his daughter laugh, and then Ikana pointed to the direction of the two at nine o'clock.

   Ted Lena looked over, and among the crowd, he saw that he stood out from the crowd.

   Far taller and more handsome than the people around him, he doesn't seem like a person in Wall Street or New York.

   It's more like Hollywood's top fresh meat that should appear in Beverly Hills!

   Abel Smith.

   Ted Lener saw that his daughter's boyfriend was talking and laughing with several people.

  Compared to a daughter whose focus is all on Abel.

  Ted Lener paid more attention to the people around Abel.

  The first thing Tedler saw was a fat man standing behind Abel.

  Age about the same age as Ted Lener, a little fatter than him.

  He knew this fat man, and knew that he was the deputy general manager of Smith Capital, Merio.

   Then there are two people in front of Abel who are talking to Abel.

   Ted Lener found out that it was two women, one was a white woman in her forties.

   Ted Lener did not know.

  The other is an Asian woman who looks very young, at most twenty years old.

   Ted Lener did not know either.

   This made Ted Lener couldn't help saying:

   "Hey Ikana. Your boyfriend looks like he's picking up girls. That Asian looks really nice."

  Ikana gave her father a helpless look. She didn't believe that Abel would pick up girls on such an occasion.

   And if you really want to pick up girls, you won't choose that skinny Asian girl, right?

   She looks really good. From the point of view of Westerners, Ikana is also called Peugeot by you.

   But from a distance, they all have a timid feeling.

   Not to mention that in terms of figure and height, he was instantly killed by himself in all directions.

  Ikana really can't believe that Abel is picking on her.

   In fact, it is true.

  The young Asian woman, named Lin Xiaoying.

  The middle-aged Caucasian woman next to the young woman is named Ke Fulanlin.

  These two people, Kathleen, are senior employees who have been working at Smith Capital for about half a year.

   And Lin Xiaoying is the representative of Huaxia specially selected by David Mellon in the Huaxia Envoy Venture Capital Project, which took nearly two months.

  Xiaoying Lin holds four degrees from MIT, namely Bachelor of Computer Science, Bachelor of Economics and Master of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.

  Among hundreds of candidates, she was the best in all aspects.

  This made this Asian woman who had just graduated and entered McKinsey Consulting within a few months.

  Officially admitted by Smith Capital, and became one of the directors of Smith Capital's next Hua Xia Envoy Venture Capital Project.

  Next, Lin Xiaoying and Kai Fulin will set off for Huaxia on the other side of the ocean.

  Form Smith Huaxia.

   Then look for start-up companies worth investing in, and conduct angel investment and first-round venture capital investment.

  As the representatives of Smith Capital in China in the future, they were able to attend the year-end reception tonight.

   was also at the reception and was received by the big boss.

  “. Very good. The two ladies are quick thinking. I agree with your investment philosophy very much.”

  Abel looked at Lin Xiaoying and Kai Fulin with a smile.

  Then he said seriously: "After you have established the company structure in the past, in addition to the companies you are optimistic about, the headquarters will also require you to invest in companies that the company is optimistic about."

   "The former is important, but so is the latter. Can you understand?"

   As for venture capital investment in China, Abel has long wanted to start.

   But need the right people.

   This manpower can't be too obedient, because Huaxia's national conditions are special.

  If you listen too much to this side, you will easily offend people there, and you will easily fail to get things done there.

  But you can't be disobedient. If you are not obedient, why do you need this branch?

  The best requirement is to have a certain degree of subjective motivation, and at the same time, when implementing the requirements of the headquarters, it can be fulfilled to the greatest extent.

   This request is actually not difficult, so I quickly found someone who satisfied Abel.

  After finding candidates, Abel's idea at first was to directly make a list of the names of those Chinese Internet giants in his memory, and then let Smith Capital Huaxia discuss them one by one.

   But then Abel changed his mind, and it seemed that doing so might leak the secret.

  He also knows that he is now on Wall Street, and he is a favorite in the eyes of everyone.

  If the list of acquisitions that I specially listed out is leaked out.

   It is hard to guarantee that the rest of Wall Street will not be tempted

   At that time, there will be more competitors, and Huaxia Smith Capital may not be able to compete with Goldman Sachs.

  Abel changed it to, every once in a while, let the branch achieve about one to three acquisition and shareholding goals there.

  In this way, confidentiality can be achieved to the greatest extent.

  Facing the big boss, Abel was still rumored to be a bit miraculous by Wall Street.

  Lin Xiaoying and Kai Fulin are both excited and nervous at the moment.

  Cavlin is the old man of the company, and she was also the head this time.

   At the moment in 2000.

  From a Wall Street venture capital company, the boss is a white man, and it will obviously be more convincing there.

  Lin Xiaoying, a native of China, acted as a deputy, handling human relations and other things that were more convenient for locals.

Of course.

   It won't be just the two of them.

   will still be here, recruiting some administrative staff such as secretaries to follow.

   "Understood. BOSS! Please rest assured!" Being able to be assigned as the general manager of the branch is a promotion and salary increase for Kai Fulin.

  Although she is a bit regretful that the place where she is released is China, an underdeveloped country.

   But Kathleen was just as excited.

  As for Lin Xiaoying.

  This pretty, young and beautiful foreign student.

   From an ordinary employee of McKinsey Consulting Company, he became the deputy general manager of the famous Smith Capital branch on Wall Street.

   This is no different from pie in the sky.

  For her, it also means returning home.

  Lin Xiaoying is actually more excited than Kai Fulin.

   It's just that she has a restrained personality, and she is not as excited as Cavelin showed.

  After communicating with these two tentacles in China in the future, Abel smiled and let them move freely.

   There are a lot of guests tonight, and I can talk to them a few more words because Abel attaches great importance to the Huaxia market.

  After the two female subordinates left, Abel heard Melio from behind whisper, "Boss, Miss Ikana and her father are here."

  The focus of "treacherous ministers" is to be different.

  Others are looking to see which heavyweight guest is coming again.

  Melio paid attention to a woman who might have a relationship with his family's "tyrant".

   "Oh~" Following Merio's guidance, Abel also saw the arrival of Ikana and her daughter.

   After thinking for a while, he walked over there.
