Age of Dreams

Citibank is the largest commercial bank in the United States, with service outlets in more than 150 countries and regions around the world.

　　 Unlike investment banks such as Goldman Sachs Investment Bank, JP Morgan Chase and Morgan Stanley, Citibank, like the City Bank of America and Royal Bank of Scotland, focuses on commercial services, not speculation.

　　 To put it simply, they are the inheritance of the old banks. The four major banks of China State Construction Agribusiness were established in accordance with their mode of operation.

　　 At the same time, Citibank has always had a good reputation in the world, at least not like some vicious investment banks, eating buyers and sellers, and then pit buyers and sellers together.

　　 Coincidentally, a few days after Xiao Qi's rebirth, Citibank announced the opening of its sixth branch in China in Rongcheng, and in December, it officially opened for foreign business.

　　 The business of foreign banks in China has not yet opened channels. Except for foreign currency business, renminbi business is very small. Most of them are financial wealth management products. They can't even absorb personal deposits, at most they can only absorb corporate deposits.

　　 This matter will not usher in a turnaround until the end of this year. At that time, as long as foreign banks change to companies registered in China, they can handle all renminbi business and begin to absorb personal deposits.

When Xiao Qi came to Citibank in Rongcheng on Zongfu Road, there were not many people handling business in the beautiful and magnificent business hall. Three of the six counters were not open. Several account managers were staying together with books. What to look at.

　　 The management of foreign companies has always been very strict, especially the working hours, which are much stricter than those in China. The light-hearted work scenes in the movies are usually just to induce evil people. Don't take it seriously.

"welcome."

　　 As usual is a female employee wearing glasses, greeted with a smile, "Mr. May I ask what business do you want to handle?"

　　 "Is your Mr. General Manager here?" Xiao Qi, who was wearing an Armani suit, asked with a smile.

　　Of course, I use American, American English.

This kind of English with a strong American West Coast accent caught the female staff member for a moment. She had also graduated from college anyway. It is obvious that this kind of spoken language is not a person who has spent several years abroad, and there is no way to speak it. Come out.

　　 or they are directly Chinese.

　　 "Sir, what did you say?" So she also replied in English.

　　 "I'm looking for your president, please tell him that I have a big business and I want to talk to him." Xiao Qi slowed down.

　　 The female clerk finally understood, but she shook her head: "Oh, I'm sorry, sir, if you don't have an appointment, I won't be able to inform him for you."

　　 Xiao Qi looked at her severely, "If he knows that you have rejected the request of a potential diamond customer, I don't think you will keep this job anymore."

　　 "But..."

　　 "If you don't decide to come down, give him a call, I will say a few words to him, and then he decides not to see me." Xiao Qi continued to pressure her.

　　 "Please wait a moment."

　　 The female clerk ran into a room immediately, and within a few minutes, from the elevator upstairs, a middle-aged man with a vigorous spirit walked straight towards Xiao Qi.

　　 "Hello, this is Qu Liang, the vice president of Citibank. What can I do for you?" The middle-aged man said in pure American language.

　　 Now that Citibank has just opened, there is no business, so you can run into a deputy governor to handle affairs. If you wait a few years, you will be lucky to run into a manager.

　　 Seeing that it was still a Chinese, Xiao Qi was not angry, and smiled and said, "Mr. Qu lived in Arizona?"

　　 Not only did he hear Qu Liang's accent, Qu Liang also immediately heard his accent, and his smile became even greater, "Southern California! Where are you from, sir? We are real neighbors!"

"Yes, I lived there for seven years." Xiao Qi's nostalgia flashed across his face, "Mr. Qu, I have a large amount of capital and want to make some financial investments in Hong Kong through your bank. In order to ensure the confidentiality of the investment, please forgive me for not talking in Chinese."

　　 "Understand!"

I have long looked at Xiao Qi’s Qu Liang without a trace. I have already seen the Armani suits he wears worth more than 30,000 yuan, as well as the authentic Vacheron Constantin on his wrists. Although it is not a very expensive product, at least it is also It shows that people have the capital for this negotiation.

　　 In addition, the bank has just opened, and Qu Liang is naturally happy to take the business down, lest the American masters make irresponsible remarks.

　　 "Well, we can go to my office to talk. Someone happened to send me a bottle of Moappa wine. We can talk while drinking." Qu Liang invited with a smile.

"please!"

　　 Xiao Qi followed behind him, and the two of them took the elevator up to the third floor.

　　 Qu Liang's office is not big, but it is decorated in a rough American style with a little bit of randomness.

"Haha, is that hat a prize from Desett Center's cowboy competition?" Xiao Qi said in Chinese, looking at a round hat placed next to the bookcase, "I can't imagine that the president of Qu is also a riding hobby. By."

"Mr. deserves to be from Southern California~www.readwn.com~ even knows the game in such a small place so well." Qu Liang opened the red wine and poured a glass by himself, "Think about it, I am happy while studying. , You can run anywhere!"

Xiao Qi nodded and drank a sip of red wine after clinking the glasses. As he put the glasses down, his expression began to change. "President Qu, I have 3 billion RMB in cash in my hand. I want to entrust your bank to help me in Hong Kong through a secret channel. Run it, can I?"

　　 Qu Liang was already listening attentively to what he said, but he didn't even notice it, "How much do you say...?"

　　 "Three billion yuan, cash."

　　 "You...what are you going to do? The country has strict financial controls. If the action is too big, I'm afraid it won't work!" Qu Liang subconsciously said.

Xiao Qi smiled and said, "President Qu, we have all been to the United States. If you want to come, you will also know what Wall Street’s attitude towards the legal system of a country is. As an investment service commercial bank, don’t you think it’s a bit wrong to say this? Does it fit your identity?"

　　 "Hehe, I just said it smoothly." Qu Liang shrugged and apologized, "It seems that you are right to find the president. I really can't decide your business."

　　 While talking, he picked up the internal phone, called a person named Tony, reported a little bit, and put down the phone.

　　 "Let's go, I'll take you to him, Tony is also our neighbor, this guy is from Nevada." Inadvertently, Qu Liang revealed another message to Xiao Qi.
