Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 176 The Forerunner

On April 1980, 4, the city of Pilsen changed from the peace and tranquility of the past to a little noisy and agitated.
When the vehicle carrying Carter, two computers, corresponding accessories, and credit card ordering equipment arrived in the center of Pearson, the overwhelming crowd had to mobilize the police to clear the way for the group to reach Forest Bank smoothly.

Wherever they passed along the way, everyone cast attention, curiosity, excitement and anticipation on this line of vehicles.Gabe and Drews, who were also sitting in the car and saw this scene, felt a little complicated.

Looking at the glamorous and well-dressed Carter, it became more and more difficult for Drews to associate this sunny and handsome boy with the terrifying Mr. Black in his memory.

Speaking of which, this seems like a good thing.But the experience that night was like a nightmare, reminding myself all the time: Don't be fooled by the high salary, don't be deceived by the appearance!

Knowing people, knowing face but not knowing heart, who knows when he will give you a knife? !
As a temporary worker, Gabe's mood is not as complicated as that of Drews.He was just envious mixed with a trace of jealousy, this trendy plus seemed to be far more outrageous than he imagined.
It's fine to be awesome locally, but why is it the same in other places? !
Compared with Carter, the so-called wavers among my classmates who could only be famous in a few schools are not at all!There is no comparison at all!

"Mr. Drews, Gabe, you guys are going to be busy at the bank later. It might look a bit chaotic over there. I don't really care about you. After you're done, come and have dinner together at noon! Of course, if you move Hurry up, if you want to go to the venue to join in the fun, I welcome it too, but I may not have time to take care of you at that time."

When the vehicle was about to stop in front of the Forest Bank gate, Carter turned his head and told the two of them.Then tidy up your clothes and get out of the car with your head held high
"Welcome Mr. Black, Chairman of HT Company, to Pearson! The venue has been set up, and we can go there anytime after you rest!"

Accompanied by sporadic flashes of flashing lights, the mayor of Lei Boding, with a bright smile on his face, took the lead in extending his right hand to Carter.Behind him stood a group of people in suits and leather shoes.

Except for the acquaintance of the bank manager William Carter, the rest are probably Pearson's government officials or members of parliament.

"Thank you for your warm reception, Mr. Lei Boding! The enthusiasm of the people in Pilsen is still fresh in my memory!"

In front of the reporter, Carter smiled and said a few words, and then introduced each other in a clichéd manner.It wasn't until the preliminary process was settled and the reporters could temporarily call it a day that Carter showed his true face:

"Mr. Lei Boding, what's the matter? It's just such a small matter, and a reporter is here? Did you find it?"

"What is such a thing? Government-enterprise cooperation is still a new thing in Georgia. Mr. Governor is paying attention to it? What's more, our cooperation is not the kind of Pittsburgh that attracts talents from other places to the local area. Instead, it organizes local manpower to go out and grab the market.”

After entering the second floor of Forest Bank, the reporter was gone.Lei Boding didn't pretend anymore, and directly explained to Carter:
"To be honest, this may be the first time in our American history! Isn't it normal to have a few reporters? Besides, I thought about it, this is still beneficial to our plan. Free advertising Well, wait a minute. Do you understand? Don't be too direct!"

"Hahaha, I understand. It's what you guys did that put me under a lot of pressure!"

Carter laughed, not understanding Lei Boding's intention.Although the reporters who came were all from the Georgia local station, the coverage of the signal spread was good in the southeast.

For example, North and South Carolina, Virginia, and even Maryland, where Washington, D.C. is located, are all within the reach of the TV signal here in Georgia.

Even if you don't need to develop these markets for the time being, you will always need them in the future.In addition, this matter is even more beneficial to officials like them.Is there any big man in Washington who happened to watch TV and saw this news?

"No need to be stressed, you really have to be a little stressed. Hahaha, perform well!"

Patting Carter on the shoulder, Lei Boding laughed, and then said meaningfully:

"If we can make achievements and effects this time. In the future, the state government may use our project as a model to promote this model throughout the state and strengthen government-enterprise cooperation. This is also the case for poor people like us. The helplessness of the state, in this environment, you have to find a way out, and then, as a pioneer, how many benefits and conveniences you can get, I don’t need to say it directly!”

"Haha, I see! I will do my best!"

After a short rest at Forest Bank, the group set off for the venue again when the hands of the clock pointed to [-]:[-] a.m. EST.

Speeches and referendums are held on a square in the center of Pilsen.In addition to a high platform and speakers, there are two rows of tables and chairs lined up under the stage.Ballot boxes representing different neighborhoods are placed on the table one after another, and behind the chairs are staff sitting in full battle ready to count the votes.

Facing the bright sunshine in the morning, under the reflection of the blue sky and white clouds, Carter took a deep breath and tried to make his steps as stable as possible
What thousands of speeches are the same as tens of thousands of people, it's all fart!

In addition to the heads everywhere in the square, the streets in the distance, and the residential buildings on both sides. It can be said that the heads of the entire Pearson gathered here.

Just the gathering of low-pitched chattering voices, the movement is no smaller than that of a loudspeaker!

But now the arrow is on the string and has to be launched, no matter how unexpected the situation is, it must be launched when it is time
One step, two steps, three steps.
Carter's steps were slow but steady.When he stood in front of the podium and arranged the manuscript in his hand, the scene gradually became quiet.
"Good morning, gentlemen and ladies!"

After a bland opening remark, the crowd did not respond.For this group of people, as long as he doesn't want to, it's impossible to applaud you in order to cope with the situation
"I'm the one in Pearson's recent hot topic, the owner of the restaurant company called Havana tacos, and I'm also the new owner of Pearson Savings Bank."

"I come from next door to everyone, Douglas, and I have a close neighbor relationship with you. As a good neighbor of everyone, I come to Pearson this time to visit, so naturally I can't come empty-handed. I have prepared a gift for everyone!"

"This gift is not a surprise, because you have all heard of it. Let me stop talking nonsense, and let me introduce the specific content of the plan. Gentlemen who have questions, please wait until my speech is over before focusing on asking questions , Don't worry, I will welcome everyone's questions!"

"The content of the cooperation project, I will divide it into two parts according to the different partners. The first part: facing the salaried group."
