Chapter 158

Chapter 158 No one

The entire Smith Building applauded.

That's because in the next part.

Their boss smiled and announced a bonus for each Smith Capital employee during this period.

Including the security staff who served at the Smith Building during this time and even the cleaning staff.

All received corresponding red envelope bonuses, ranging from one thousand to one hundred thousand dollars. Just this morning, Abel spent millions of dollars at Smith Capital as a red envelope reward.

This is rare on Wall Street.

On Wall Street, the people who can afford to pay bonuses like this are these giants.

The giants are all listed companies and the shareholder relationships behind them are extremely complicated.

This is not possible for them and they will not spend a lot of money on rewards such as daily red envelopes. In these small and medium enterprises, the bosses are all stingy.

The reward they can receive at the end of the year is already their greatest generosity.

In summary, we can roughly say that, like Abel, an additional bonus will be issued once or twice a month.

Bosses with high amounts of money are certainly rare.

There are mainly two reasons. One is the spirit of Abel, who represents half of the people in heaven.

People in the Heavenly Court feel comfortable after earning money, and those who are more generous are happy.

Another reason is that for Abel, money is sometimes easier than wind.

Money is easy to earn and spend generously.

Additionally, Abel doesn't think he has much charisma as a leader. The ability to manage a business is even more terrible.

In this case, I want to gain the loyalty and efficiency of my subordinates.

What is the best way?

Chicken soup? Draw a cake? Sorry, he won't.

He only used checks that smelled of ink and were signed by these big banks to win people's hearts.

I give money and you do everything for me.

It is very simple.

This is the way of a simple, new, immature and stable capitalist. I don't want to talk about feelings, feelings are the most valuable thing.

"Oh~"

In Abel's office, he hasn't been out for almost a week.

David Mellon, looking a bit disheveled, couldn't help but sigh.

This is a long, tense, dramatic and extremely attractive war for capital.

It's finally over. And it ended in a huge victory that made David Mellon extremely happy at this time.

But the most important thing is actually this profit, which will increase David's personal income by tens of millions of dollars.

The tens of millions of dollars in dividends is the most important reason why he can be so excited and work so hard for such a long time.

Money is the best motivator.

It's the same everywhere. "Rest well, it's your turn to be busy tomorrow." Abel looked at his most capable subordinate on Wall Street and said with a smile.

He still really likes David Mellon.

Not to mention other things, these seven days are all spent on the trading floor.

And when buying, selling and closing positions, don't make any mistakes. Abel cannot do this alone.

On Wall Street, very few people can do that and they are all senior executives of these giants.

In addition, David Mellon also helped him a lot with contacts on the East Coast.

"I understand. How are Merio's preparations going?" David also smiled. "There is no need to worry about Merio's ability to work in this field." » Abel said smiling.

What they were both talking about was Smith Capital's year-end reception.

When David entered a refugee state and lost contact with the outside world.

Preparations for Smith Capital's year-end meeting are assigned to Deputy Managing Director Merio.

Melio, executive vice president of Smith Capital, is often absent from the company. The fat old man was busy all day with some logistical work assigned by Abel, mainly in New York.

For example, preparing for this year-end reception.

There are also preparations for the ISA show in Times Square from the company Isha.

At the same time, we must do a good job in Smith Capital's logistics.

These tasks may seem unimportant, but they are actually chosen randomly. It's difficult for normal people to do.

Melio can do it all, very quickly.

This is his personal ability.

"Then shall I go home first?" David Mellon told Abel after confirming the matter at tomorrow night's reception.

Abel nodded: "Except for those who cannot be on duty, other employees should take a day off today."

David nodded, he was also very tired. lasted a week, sleeping only three to four hours a day.

Tired and sleepy, drink lots of coffee to refresh yourself.

This type of living although money is used as a motivator to stimulate it.

But after that it was really tiring.

It's no surprise that some Wall Street workers sometimes choose to eat flour. Sometimes coffee can't even cheer you up.

I can't relax.

Isn't it just the big ingredients?

Wall Street is like that.

David is gone. A moment later Abel also stood up and left the Smith Building.

Leave the warm cabin before getting in the car.

Wear warm clothes so you don't look bulky.

But blown away by the cold wind outside, Abel missed the neither hot nor cold climate of Los Angeles.

He was ready. After tomorrow night's reception ends, head to Los Angeles to escape the cold!

I'll be back at the end of December for Isha's show, then I'll head to Los Angeles after Christmas.

In this winter in New York, as long as nothing happens, Abel feels like he will never come back here again!

With this in mind, he entered Lincoln City in the middle of the motorcade and exited the Smith Building.

It was still about 11 a.m. and rush hour in New York had not yet arrived.

Before rush hour, Abel's motorcade arrived at the Ted Lena Building at 40 Wall Street.

In the lobby of the Ted Lener building, he saw a smiling father and son standing next to D. Ted Lerner to welcome him.

"Hello~ Mr. Smith, good afternoon! Welcome to Ted Lena Manor, come to my kingdom~"

Ikana's father walked in as soon as he saw Abel and his group.

He excitedly walked towards them and shouted loudly from afar.

This immediately attracted other people in the lobby to and from the Ted Lena building.

Ikana could only smile wryly behind her father. Dad's character, I'm afraid others don't know that Abel Smith came to see Ted Lena today.

But Ikana thought about it and knew why her father did that.

In recent months, due to bank loans in recent years, these things have happened one after another.

Dr. Ted Lerner's cash streak suddenly became strained.

A sudden breakup is unlikely, but life is no longer as comfortable as before. This is also the reason why D. Ted Lerner can no longer support his daughter's YKM.

Thanks to D. Ted Lerner's previous "outstanding" performances.

The bank is willing to lend him money. But when it comes to repaying debt, D. Ted Lerner has always been ruthless.

Recent payments forced D. Ted Lerner to sell some assets.

Luckily, these are minor issues, meaning cash flow will be very tight. in this case.

People like Abel know he's rich and a tycoon with a lot of money shows up at his door.

No matter how you look at it, of course D. Ted Lerner is to be applauded.

Furthermore, D. Ted Lerner was probably thinking the same thing as Abel walked out the door.

Create a good relationship between him and Abel, then use this relationship.

Let these Wall Street guys stop being ruthless in their pursuit of debt.

Who is Abel? Today, it is the big kid in the eyes of many on Wall Street. "Hello Mr. Lerner." Abel smiled and shook the tall white man's hand.

After the handshake, it was Ikana's turn to step forward from behind.

When it was Ikana's turn, Abel didn't just shake hands.

He hugged him directly and, with Ikana's embarrassed expression, kissed his face.

D. Ted Lerner saw it from the side, and suddenly this thought appeared in his mind——

[This is clearly a problem. Ikana kept telling me that what the media reported was just a rumor and that it was false! Oh yeah. Let me tell you that no man can refuse my daughter's charms. ]

After the wedding ceremony.

All three people, assistant and entourage, quickly left the crowded hallway of the Ted Lena building. Stay longer, New York paparazzi have a keen sense of smell.

It is estimated that they will arrive at the door soon.

".Oh~ You have found the right person for this problem."

"Mr. Smith! I dare say, no one knows New York real estate better than me!"

"."

Ted Lener Building,

A spacious conference room.

On the conference round table.

D. Ted Lerner made the one-handed gesture he always liked and said something, but his eyes were fixed on his daughter and Abel who were sitting very close.

Dr. Ted Lerner once again confirmed that these two people were definitely having an affair!

"So tell me, Mr. Smith, what real estate in New York do you want to know about?"

"Or do you want to buy a luxury house? My company also has intermediary business."

"Last time the newspaper said you bought a house for 65 million USD, you definitely bought it too expensive!"

"If you come to me at that time, I only need 50 million US dollars, I can help you get it!"

"I must emphasize again! No one understands the New York real estate industry better than I do!"

Look at Ted Lener, outgoing, vocal and energetic.

Abel smiled slightly.

This time he went to the Ted Lena building, looking for Ikana elsewhere. The main goal is actually to find Ted Lener.

Not to tighten the thighs, of course. Back then, Ted Lener had huggable deflated thighs.

Ted Lener is now just another ordinary man among many wealthy men in New York.

More so because of his numerous bankruptcies, as well as his scandalous and successful performances on television. The fact that there was so much money in old New York was considered a disgrace to rich New Yorkers.

Honestly, considering Ted Lena's family situation, we can see that Ted Lener's acting is a bit better.

With his life, with Ikana's life.

They can be considered one of the old capitals of New York.

But Ted Lener's performance over the years still makes them look like nouveau riche. Not accepted by old money in New York and outside wealthy New York circles.

Abel went to see Ted Lena, just as Ted Lener said.

He wanted to learn more about the real estate industry in New York.

Second, I actually came to see Ikana.

He wants to eat a big pear. "Okay, Mr. Lerner."

Abel smiled and said:

"What I mainly want to know is really just Manhattan, specifically the land situation near Central Park."

If you want to buy a house or a luxury home, of course you can also look to Ted Lena Group.

In terms of price and dealer fees, it can be cheaper but not necessarily.

But

The house was purchased through Ted Lena Group, Ikana will definitely know the situation.

Ikana is also currently helping her father, handling some of the Ted Lena Group's affairs.

Abel is not willing to do this. He really wanted to buy a house, and mostly to hide the beauty of the golden house.

How could Ikana know about this place?

Because of what Ikana did in parallel time and space.

To be honest, Abel was somewhat defensive towards Ikana.

This girl has too much ambition, too much action and too much self-control. But that doesn't seem very smart.

"Manhattan land. Also close to Central Park"

Ted Lener thought for a moment and then the old man said:

"I don't know Mr. Smith, what do you want to use the land for?"

Abel frankly said:

"Two goals. One is to build a building for myself. As my business is growing, it is more convenient to use a building to work together. Here it's like Mr. Lerner's Ted Lerner Building.

"The remaining thing is housing development. I think some houses in Manhattan make me very unhappy. I want to buy land and build a house myself.

His previous goal was good.

Building a headquarters in Manhattan is the dream of every powerful company or wealthy person.

In Manhattan there is a full-fledged skyscraper. It is a symbol of strength in the United States.

Ted Lener knows Abel is very rich.

It's no wonder he has such thoughts about Abel.

His own Ted Lena building is the best expression of this approach.

But Ted Lena doesn't understand Abel's latest goal. "Develop housing yourself?" Ted Lener was curious: "Did you build it to live in?"

"I will live alone. But I will also use him as an example." Abel smiled: "Mr. Lerner, next to Central Park, built the tallest residential building in the world at 1,776 feet, so to speak." What do you think ?

"1776 feet?" Ted Lener frowned, "I don't think so."

"It's too high. The technical difficulty will be very high and the capital will be too large."

"In addition, in all of New York in the United States, Gemini 1 is currently the tallest. It is only 1,725 ​​feet tall, including the antenna. 1776 is even higher than Gemini 1."

After Ted Lener finished speaking, he asked Abel curiously.

"Why is it exactly 1,776 feet? Since it would be very high, wouldn't it be better than 1,800 feet or 1,900 feet?"

"Why 1776 feet." Abel smiled and said:

"Because our country was founded in 1776."

"Wow, that's right. You're right." Ted Lener was surprised to hear this, and then his thick eyebrows seemed to fly away.

"It's great, it's very, very good. If it could be built, I guarantee it would be the coolest building in the entire United States! 1776 feet is truly a great number!"

"Mr. Smith, I have to admit that you are a genius. I believe that if you develop in the real estate field, you can also succeed!"

Abel smiled.

He said in his heart: This is absurd, the tallest building in America in the future parallel to time and space is this number.

If he doesn't remember, he really won't know how to use the number 1776.

This number still has some special significance in the United States.

Just like 1949. "To build such a tall building, the area required is not small."

Ted Lener thought about it and said: "It's not easy to find such a large open space in Manhattan.

We are in the year 2000, not 1900.

At that time, Manhattan was very expensive and the downtown area was filled with high-rise buildings.

Among them, land around Central Park is even rarer.

Even if you are rich, you can acquire a large amount of land.

Abel smiled and said:

"That's why I found you, Mr. Tedler."

"Like you said, I also feel like in New York, no one knows the real estate industry better than you."

"Aha~"

Ted Lener laughed. "You're right, Mr. Smith. No one knows New York real estate better than I do."

"Okay. I'll keep an eye on you. Later I'll have someone make a list of the land areas that Manhattan can currently build on and send it to your company."

"Nothing." Abel returned the favor by saying:

"As long as I get the land, the construction of the building and residence must also involve the Ted Lena Group."

"I remember Ikana saying that Ted Lena Group's construction company is very good."

Ted Lener immediately said:

"You're right. No construction company can be better than mine!"

As he spoke, Ted Lener looked at his daughter with appreciation. It's not the same as completely removing the arm.

After talking business.

The atmosphere then became even more relaxed.

Ted Lener is a very talkative person.

In private, he doesn't look like the nouveau riche on TV at all. Although his comment was a bit "dry" but also valid, it was an ordinary person's impression of a New York billionaire.

Except for the occasional "no one is better than me xx" pops up every now and then.

Abel doesn't think Ted Lener is much worse than Bloomberg and others.

Ted Lener is clearly a smart guy.

After a while of chatting. The rich man who was about the same age as Abel's father, Alexander Smith, stood up and smiled to leave, saying that he still had an appointment at noon.

Leave enough privacy for his daughter and Abel.

After he left.

Abel also doesn't mind the cameras in the meeting room.

walked straight up to Ikana, pulled out a chair, sat next to her and hugged her. "There is supervision," Ikana said softly.

"This is your family's surveillance. Your father won't secretly spy on us, right?"

It's hard to say. Ikana thought.

Then she heard Abel smile and say:

"Besides. Look at Mr. Lerner's appearance. It seems like you haven't told him about our relationship, right?

Ikana narrowed her eyes, "The relationship between the two of us? What kind of relationship is that?"

Abel confidently: "Of course it's sex!"

Ikana was a bit surprised.

This bastard, is trying to hurt himself.

Be attracted. After that, he was not at all what Ikana imagined.

Like a boyfriend in a normal boyfriend and girlfriend, keep her as a girlfriend.

While it's not necessary to delete x and leave, it doesn't mean you have to prostitute yourself for nothing.

But she did not take the initiative and insisted on taking the initiative.

Only when she desires her body does she take the initiative to come

Facing Abel like that, Ikana had a headache. Let's break up, reluctantly.

The body is fully distributed.

What's more, no matter how you look at it, Abel's high quality is a bit excessive.

A more perfect type than Nhu Y Lang Quan that she had previously imagined.

Find a way to tease the pua, this guy eats sugar cannonballs. Every time she is herself, she gets very confused.

Dare to say anything in a daze.

Baba called him many times

The hard and the soft both made Ikana helpless.

For half a month, she doubted whether she could really make her wish come true.

She wondered if it was a mistake for him to do so. If sunk costs are not too high.

And he reluctantly endured the various resources brought by Abel.

There is also the wild hope that it will succeed.

Ikana, who has strong self-control, wants to retreat.

Now in his mouth he clearly heard the recognition of the relationship between the two sides. Ikana would naturally be surprised.

"Do you dare say these words in front of my father? Ikana wanted to provoke him: "Do you dare to announce them in front of everyone?

Ikana wanted to stimulate him.

Use a somewhat aggressive approach.

But it made him see Abel's shameless side.

Abel is right:

"Why doesn't he dare? I always say in the media that I have hundreds of girlfriends and every American girl can be my girlfriend!"

"Ikana, honey. Go find the media for me now! I'll definitely tell them that you're my girlfriend right in front of them!"

Ikana was speechless.

Yes, she believes Abel will do that.

But if there are other shameless women who also seek out the media.

Ikana thought. It's very possible that Abel will tell the media that Bichi is also his girlfriend before other media!

Ikana had no doubt about that.

He will definitely do it!
