Chapter 624: Fighting Wall Street

"Hey Donald, nice to see you. How are you doing?"

Even though he slept with someone else's daughter, little Gilbert still gave Donald face and acted very enthusiastically.

Donald hugged Gilbert Jr. and said, “I came from New York and I heard a lot of things over there.

Do you know what the rich people in New York say about you? "

"How to say?"

"They say you're a hypocritical, shameless, male chauvinistic bastard, my God, they're blind." Donald looked like he shared the same hatred for the enemy.

Little Gilbert smiled nonchalantly and said, "Let them say whatever they want, Donald. There will always be such people in this world. They are jealous of our success and our wealth."

The financial groups have been wanting the wealth in Gilbert Jr.'s hands for a long time, especially those in New York, who even wanted to deal with Gilbert Jr. through Washington.

Before that, various clubs invited little Gilbert to join. Many rich women were attracted to little Gilbert, and some people planned to bring little Gilbert to love loli together.

But after little Gilbert did that, there was less solicitation and more suppression.

Although Little Gilbert's power was not as strong as theirs, it was not so easy to control. Unless the weapons were made, the financial and medical fields could not do anything to Little Gilbert.

Gilbert Jr. is a media tycoon, so it is useless to use the media to discredit him. Gilbert Jr. is also a representative of Silicon Valley capital, and even Bill Gates has participated in the life fund he and Jobs set up.

Peter Thiel of Silicon Valley Capital is a loyal fan of Gilbert Jr. and works hard for him in Silicon Valley.

On the surface, this is a suppression of Gilbert Jr. by New York's financial capital and medical complex, but in fact it is a warning to Silicon Valley's high-tech capital.

Just this June, a certain old man in Washington proposed restricting computer development to prevent the situation in the movies where artificial intelligence developed by computers controls the future world.

Many people think this is ridiculous. How is this possible? It would take hundreds of years to achieve such artificial intelligence!
But in this bullshit country, nothing is impossible and you can fabricate any crime.

So even though Silicon Valley's high-tech companies strongly opposed it, Washington still entered the discussion stage, which caused Silicon Valley companies such as Oracle, Microsoft, and Amazon to worry.

Not to mention Apple, Banana, Watermelon and other companies that have deeper ties with Gilbert Jr., which are now waiting for the bill to come out.

Donald didn't come for this, in fact he came to seek help. Donald Group is mainly based on real estate, which once became the pillar industry in North America.

However, countless cases in the past have proven that putting hope in the real estate industry and driving up housing prices will eventually fail. Once upon a time, Tokyo's housing prices could even buy the entire United States, emptying the wallets of several generations.

Look at it now, there is only false prosperity left.

As a shrewd businessman, Donald naturally sensed the crisis in the real estate industry and sought transformation.

After much thought, she decided that her cheap son-in-law had the ability to help him, even though Ivanka and Gilbert Jr. were not married.

Ivanka sat obediently aside. Although it was her father who came to seek help, she did not want to embarrass little Gilbert and waited for him to make a decision.

Little Gilbert said, "The crisis in the real estate industry is indeed coming, Donald. I do have a short-term business to do. It depends on whether you dare to invest."

Donald became interested: "What short-term business?"

“You know the Great Depression?”

"Of course I know. It's caused by the economic crisis." Donald responded: "You mean, there will be an economic crisis?"

"There are signs of this happening now, but Wall Street and Washington are still trying to cover up the truth," Gilbert said. "If you are interested, go back and raise some money and give it to Ivanka.

With the Fruit Foundation in operation, we can profit from this economic crisis.

More importantly, it can hit the arrogance of Wall Street. You can also use the funds obtained to help the company transform. "

Donald was quite moved by this, and after looking at Ivanka, he felt that Gilbert Jr. would not cheat him, so he agreed. "Okay, I will raise funds when I get back and get involved."

"Okay, do it secretly and try not to be discovered by others."

"Don't worry, absolutely not."

The two smiled at each other, and Donald started talking about something else: "Ivanka, it's been so long, why haven't you gotten pregnant? I'm still waiting to hold my grandson!"

Ivanka was embarrassed: "Dad, how can you say that to my face?"

"What's wrong with that? It's only natural." Donald patted Gilbert on the shoulder and said, "Work hard, young man."

After Donald left, Ivanka asked worriedly, "Is the economic crisis you mentioned really going to happen?"

"Why? Are you afraid that I'll cheat Donald out of his money?"

"That's not the case, but I think they won't watch the economic crisis happen."

Little Gilbert laughed and said, "If there was such awareness, there would be no Great Depression. Capital is selfish and cowardly. Even when facing death, they will just hide their heads and become turtles."

After a pause, Gilbert Jr. said, “By the way, Ivanka, ask the investment department to do an assessment.

I estimate that many banks will go bankrupt by then, and we will find a bank with good debt situation and good qualifications to take over. "

"You want to open a bank? People on Wall Street must hate you to death!" Ivanka widened her eyes.

Little Gilbert said nonchalantly: "Ever since I blocked Wall Street funds from entering the Banana Company and the Watermelon Company, I have been irreconcilable with Wall Street.

At worst, we can give more shares to those who make weapons, but we can't let those idiots on Wall Street take them away.

Besides, it’s already a fruit consortium. What kind of consortium is it without a bank?

Just do it! "

Ivanka nodded and went to do her work in her high heels.

Sometimes I think it's quite helpless. An ordinary film director has no ability to resist. After finally getting the upper hand, people still keep an eye on you and want to get rid of you as soon as possible.

Fortunately, the guys who made the weapons had a pretty good attitude. Although they wanted money, they cared more about their own piece of land.

Unlike Wall Street, which is extremely greedy and thinks that the whole world belongs to Wall Street, this made little Gilbert very uncomfortable.

However, the upcoming economic crisis is an opportunity to strike a blow against Wall Street financial capital, and this is also the result that Silicon Valley capital wants to see.

Washington thinks that playing with finance is the core of everything, but in Silicon Valley, high technology is the core of everything.

If it doesn't work, let Donald repeat the route of his previous life. What Ma Kaiyuan can do, his little Gilbert can do too, and even better.

Of course, it doesn’t seem that serious now. At most, it is a dispute over interests, not a dispute over the direction.

But sooner or later, everyone will end up on opposite sides.

After returning to New York, Donald began to secretly raise funds for the group company and sold many of its properties. He told the public that the group was having difficulty in cash flow and urgently needed cash flow.

Although the real estate industry in the United States is in a downturn, many properties owned by the Donald Group are of good value. In addition, Donald sells them at prices below the market price, so there is still a certain market for them.

Donald’s idea is very simple. He needs money now. Instead of letting these properties hang in his hands, it is better to transfer them in exchange for funds.

Soon after a sum of funds was raised, it was handed over to the fruit company, which began to plan for the economic crisis.
