I looked at my father Jackie Chan in 1988

Time passed by minute by minute.

Finally, two hours are up.

There was a sound of leather shoes hitting the floor in the corridor. Because this is the executive floor, there are relatively few people, so the footsteps are very clear.

Tom and Derek, both of whom had very good hearing, glanced out.

Ji Cheng naturally heard it too, but he still sat calmly, as if he didn't know who it was.

Katsa, the door of the reception room opens.

Then there was a burst of hearty laughter, "My dear fellow Ji, I haven't seen you for a while."

As soon as the words were finished, John Reed walked in surrounded by directors John and Charlie.

Ji Cheng, who was originally very calm and composed, changed his face almost instantly, from calm to flattering, "Mr. Li De, I finally waited for you."

As he said that, he stepped forward to hug each other actively.

John Reed hugged him and said with a smile, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Ji Cheng seemed very fawning at the moment, with a smile on his face, "No, I didn't wait long. I heard from John that you were receiving a big client just now. Indeed, as the chairman of Citibank, you have a lot to do every day. I'll be fine after a while."

John Reed was very satisfied with Ji Cheng's attitude, he stretched out his hand and said, "Sit down."

Ji Cheng smiled and said: "You sit first, otherwise I dare not sit."

John Reed laughed dumbly and said, "What dare you? I'm not a man-eating lion, but you, who are called the Oriental Silver Lion. This doesn't fit the image of a brave and diligent lion."

Ji Cheng continued to belittle himself: "How dare I call myself a lion in front of you?"

John Reed laughed out loud.

Charlie and John couldn't help laughing behind them.

Especially John felt funny seeing Ji Cheng's current appearance. You must know that not long ago when Ji Cheng met him, Aignan, and Buckley, he was still in a hurry. Now that he was suppressed by the capital, his attitude changed drastically.

They all felt that Ji Cheng had given in.

On the contrary, Tom and Derek couldn't help but feel a little speechless when they saw Ji Cheng flattering and fawning. Is this the Oriental Silver Lion that they have heard of in the foreign exchange market and the futures market?

Under Ji Cheng's deliberate fawning, John Reed sat down first, followed by Charlie and John before he sat down.

It seemed that Ji Cheng was specifically sending a signal to the three senior executives of Citibank that he was inferior.

At other times, John Reed, Charlie, and John might have suspected that Ji Cheng had some purpose in doing this, but now they didn't doubt it at all. After all, even if they stayed at home, they still knew what happened to Ji Cheng.

What if you don't bow your head?

Waiting for Huajin Capital to go bankrupt?

A consortium that can control the lifeline of the country wants to target a company, and absolutely not everyone can resist it.

Either give up!

Or go bankrupt!

They had seen too many people like Ji Cheng who was unconvinced at first and then humbled, so they were not surprised at all.

It's a pity they miscalculated this time.

Not only was Ji Cheng not convinced by the oppression of the opponent's capital, but even these flattery and flattery were just pretending, just to delay a little time.

Obviously, his acting skills at the moment are superb, so superb that he can fool these well-informed people.

After sitting down, John Reed looked to the left, "Ji, you have always had a good relationship with our Citibank, and you even took the initiative to make suggestions before, let us Citibank, Vanguard Group and State Street Bank work together on soybean futures." Against the Rockefeller family, we also promised you a billion dollar loan at that time. Although Vanguard Group and State Street Bank are not kind and change their minds temporarily, we at Citibank will not do this. I cherish the friendship with you. Do you understand what that means? ?”

Cherish my friendship, why the hell are you letting Citi Ventures snatch the business?

Ji Cheng knew that John Li De slapped himself hard first, and then comforted Ketang, "Of course, the relationship between me and Citibank is unbreakable."

"Well, I have prepared the money for you a long time ago, and the interest will be calculated according to the annual interest rate of [-]% that John told you." John Reed paused, "Because this short soybean futures will definitely It will not last for a year, so we can specify the maximum period of use in the contract, and then calculate it on a daily basis. For example, if you sign a contract with us, the period of use is one month, but it will be returned after [-] days, and the interest will be paid. Even fifteen days, what do you think of this plan?"

This plan is extremely kind. If Ji Cheng hadn't used the enhancement of perception to eavesdrop on the conversation between John Reed, Charlie and John, he would have been very touched, but it is a pity that he knew that John Reed gave himself What is the purpose of such favorable conditions? It is nothing more than to let him use the money to short soybean futures, and then use small tricks to make him lose everything.

Ji Cheng thought in his heart, but flattered him: "Thank you! Thank you, Mr. Li De, for being so kind and giving me such a preferential plan. I will definitely remember your kindness."

"Hehe, don't be so polite, we are allies." John Reed said and clapped his hands, "Then it's settled, whether I will transfer the money to your company account, or directly sign the contract and use Citigroup The bank's huge channel buys the contract for you?"

Ji Chengdao: "I'll find an institution to buy short contracts myself."

"Okay." John Reed didn't get too entangled in this matter, he said and looked to the side, "John, let the legal side draft a contract as I said."

"Ok."

John got up to leave.

Afterwards, Ji Cheng continued to flatter him until he got the contract. He checked it carefully and found that the money was lent to Huajin Capital, not an individual, so he called the person in charge of Huajin Capital to sign the contract. .

After signing, he said goodbye.

Wait until Ji Cheng left Citibank with people from Huajin Capital.

John Reed sneered, "This guy is not convinced."

John froze for a moment, "Isn't he very respectful?"

Charlie also sneered, "John, you are still too young. If he is really convinced, the money will not be returned to the company, but we will ask Citibank to help buy short contracts.",

When John thought about it, he couldn't help but frowned, "Then what should we do?"

"Monitor his whereabouts and the movement of funds in the company's account at any time." John Reed gave an order, "Report to me immediately if there is any abnormality, no, all his movements in the past two days must be reported to me, even if he is in a hurry Even if you pee on the side of the road, you have to report it!"

Yes, he wanted to lock up Ji Cheng, and lock up all abnormalities with variables.

At least during the period of shorting soybean futures!

John Li De must be sure that Ji Cheng will suffer a lot this time, and in the end he can only really give in to them, instead of just giving in to them on the surface like this time.

……

On the way back to the company.

Steve White, who came here to sign the contract before, asked with some confusion: "Mr. Cheng, the company is not short of money now. What are you going to do with the money?"

Ji Cheng hummed without explaining, but said: "You wait for my call at any time, even if you fall asleep at night, you have to jump up to answer the phone immediately, and then you will be the first to tell which account I want you to transfer the money into." Time to remit, it’s okay if the handling fee is more expensive, as long as it can be remitted to the account in time.”

Steve White's greatest strength is his obedience, "Okay."

Ji Cheng didn't say anything. He closed his eyes and turned on the system. He wanted to see where Aniston was, and then asked Aniston to do some deceitful things for him, such as flying to Xiangjiang overnight, so that he could make love Teleport to Xiangjiang without being found.

As for the return, the same is true. After Aniston went to Xiangjiang, he flew back to the beautiful country immediately.

In this way, the time Ji Cheng is not present in the beautiful country is only a dozen hours at most, and the consortium should not find anything abnormal.

In fact, more than ten hours is too long, and it is still easy to be discovered.

But now Ji Cheng only has one way to get out of the consortium's sight. There is no way, who let him have only Aniston in this time and space, and he can only have a few more lovers, so he can go wherever he wants Wow, but right now Ji Cheng doesn't have time to develop a lover who will provide him with the coordinates of a promise transmission, so let's make do with it first, and develop slowly in the future.

The system is on.

The top is still the time of the current space-time, and the bottom is the value of the energy slot.

Ji Cheng looked down, trying to find Aniston's love transmission screen.

But it's okay if you don't look at it, but when you look at it, he is stunned!

"Huh? Why are there four teleportation screens?"

Ji Cheng felt a burst of surprise. For so long, he only had Shen Xia, Lin Wanru and Aniston's three coordinates of love transmission. Who is the extra one?

Madonna?

Impossible, I only interacted with her once, and the other party is an unconquerable empress, how could it be so easy to fall in love with me?

He looked at the extra picture, and then he knew who it was.

It was Qin Xiaohui!

Ji Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then his chest was filled with joy!

it is good!

That's great!

Last time I went to the capital to comfort Qin Xiaohui, I didn't expect such an unexpected harvest!

He already knew one thing from Lin Wanru, that is, as long as a woman develops a trace of true love for him, she will provide a teleportation coordinate. This love doesn't have to be strong, as long as it is there.

Obviously, the last time he comforted Qin Xiaohui and showed off his talent, Qin Xiaohui, a literary young woman, developed a feeling of admiration, which is why he added a teleportation coordinate.

Of course, if Qin Xiaohui's admiration disappears in the future, Ji Cheng's coordinates will also disappear.

This made him more determined, and he must find more opportunities to enhance his relationship with Qin Xiaohui in the future.

Well, now is not the time to think about that.

Ji Cheng made some calculations, then immediately raised his head to Tom who was driving, and said, "Go to the Jean-Gees restaurant."

"Ok."

Tom changed lanes in response.

Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, Steve White thought that Ji Cheng was hungry, so he offered to recommend with a smile: "Mr. Cheng, I know there is a French restaurant that tastes like..."

Ji Cheng was too preoccupied with things to pay attention to Steve White, but now he heard the other party talking, and seeing that the car was full, he immediately interrupted: "Then what Steve, get out of the car, and Let's take a taxi back to the company."

Steve White: "..."

Damn, boss, you eat alone!

And then... Well, then Steve White was kicked out of the car, watching the car leave in a mess in the wind.

……

Came to the restaurant where Aniston worked.

At the moment Aniston is serving plates to guests.

As soon as Ji Cheng walked in, he said bluntly: "Honey, I have something to do with you, can you let someone else replace your job?"

"Hey, my dear, why are you here?" Aniston heard the sound, and immediately beckoned to the waitress that Ji Cheng had met before, and said, "Daisy, help me get off work."

Daisy Geller walked over with long legs and smiled teasingly, "Jennifer, is your handsome boyfriend of the richest man in the country here?"

Sitting at the table were two young Caucasian men and women who were a little upset about Aniston's dawdling. They were shocked when they heard this sentence, and looked at Ji Cheng with disbelief.

Not only them, but also the people at the next table who heard the voice.

Ji Cheng fainted for a moment. He knew that Daisy Geller was joking, but he was really not the richest man in the beautiful country!

Then the people who dined in the restaurant reacted in amazement.

"God! Isn't this the Eastern Silver Lion?"

"The owner of Joaquin Capital? The owner of the company that bought Columbia Films?"

"Yes, it's him."

"My God! My God!"

"It's so exciting to see him here!"

There are many people in the restaurant who are engaged in the financial industry. In addition, Ji Cheng's acquisition of Columbia Film Company has just caused a sensation in the entire beautiful country. Now his reputation is in full swing, so he was recognized immediately.

Someone even wanted to take a photo.

Ji Cheng was dumbfounded, but still took a photo with that person.

The rest of the restaurant staff obviously didn't expect Aniston's boyfriend to be so old, and all of them cast envious looks.

Ji Cheng took Aniston outside.

Aniston looked at him with wide eyes blinking, "Honey, what's the rush?"

Ji Cheng didn't answer right away, but asked, "Are you going to Chicago to shoot a movie these days?"

"The director team called and told me to come the day after tomorrow." Aniston replied truthfully.

the day after tomorrow?

Time should be enough.

Ji Cheng calculated in his mind, and made up nonsense, "I don't know how long it will take you to film this time. I think you can spend a few more days with me before you go."

Aniston looked around the restaurant hesitantly, and asked for his opinion, "Can I wait until I get off work?"

Ji Cheng acted anxiously, "Don't, I miss you so much."

Aniston laughed out loud seeing his anxious look, "Can't we wait until night?"

Ji Cheng said: "I want to take you home now, look..."

Before finishing speaking, Aniston said in astonishment: "Take me home?"

Ji Cheng hummed, looked at her seriously, and didn't make up nonsense this time, "You are my girlfriend, as long as there are no accidents, we will live together or even get married sooner or later, so I take you back to my house now to get acquainted. "

He talked to Aniston for so long and never brought it home.

Aniston has wondered many times whether Ji Cheng just wants to play with her. After all, Ji Cheng is so young and has such a huge wealth. She is a very ordinary girl. She has talked with such a rich man for so long, but once If you haven't really entered Ji Cheng's life, how can you not think wildly?

Now that she heard Ji Cheng said that he would take her home, and that he might live together or even get married in the future, she couldn't help being moved, and immediately said excitedly, "I'm going to ask for leave."

Seeing her being so obedient, Ji Cheng couldn't help thinking back to what Madonna had said to him, yes, when his career has reached his level, he really doesn't need a strong woman to be his girlfriend, just a gentle and obedient one.

Thinking of this, he said directly, "Why don't you resign."

Aniston smiled and said, "I was planning to resign in the next two days, so don't be in such a hurry."

Ji Cheng knew that she had no choice but to resign in order to make a film, but now he needs Aniston to accompany him as a coordinate to avoid the eyes of the consortium, so he said with a smile: "I'm going to let you stay with me for two days , I don’t go to work anyway, so you come to resign the day after tomorrow?”

Aniston thought about it, and immediately made up her mind, saying, "Okay, I'll go in and resign."

In Pretty Country, except for Montana, all jobs are basically "at-will" jobs.

What is "at-will" employment?It means that the employer can terminate the employment relationship of the employee at any time, regardless of whether there is a reason, without prior notice, and without special reasons.

Likewise, employees have the same rights.

In other words, employees can leave work at any time without prior notice to their employer.

The employee who was originally in charge of a very important business was favored by other companies. If he resigned overnight, it may bring huge losses to the company.Under such circumstances, it is necessary to formulate an employment contract that clearly stipulates the working hours of employees to prevent capable and honest employees from leaving in advance. Jicheng Company signs such contracts with employees.

There are exceptions in at-will employment relationships. Although each state applies different exceptions, the exception that applies equally to all states is wrongful dismissal. As an "at-will" employer, you cannot fire your employees casually.

So what is wrongful dismissal?

That is, dismissing employees on the grounds of their gender, sexual orientation, religion, race, etc.

In other words, it is not a problem to fire employees for their work attitude or ability, but they cannot be fired because they are women, blacks, gays, or Christians.

If wrongful dismissal is a fact, the employer could pay huge fines and damages, so be extra careful.

Aniston resigned normally, and the owner of the restaurant did not sign an employment contract like that of Joaquin Capital with her. Naturally, she did not encounter any resistance and resigned easily.

……

After an hour and a half.

In the villa, Ji Cheng and Aniston hugged each other after having a passion.

Aniston looked very sweet at the moment, "Honey, I thought you would never take me home."

"Why?" Ji Cheng smiled and patted her on the shoulder, then picked up the phone next to the bed and made a domestic call, "I'll make a call to Huaxia first, and I'll chat with you later."

"Okay, you're busy first."

Aniston curled up in his arms like a kitten.

Du, Dudu, the call was connected quickly.

From the other end came Liu Zhi's impatient voice, "Who, you called before dawn to disturb people's sleep."

"it's me."

Ji Cheng said calmly.

Liu Zhi immediately regained his energy, "Oh, boss, why did you call so early?"

Ji Cheng didn't explain, but just ordered: "Do something for me."

"Tell me." Liu Zhi said.

"You go to Aiguo first, let him go to his god-sister Qin Xiaohui, and say that I have something urgent to ask Qin Xiaohui to go to Xiangjiang. If she is worried, let Aiguo go together, and then you find someone to arrange for them to go to Xiangjiang. The sooner the better, remember, the sooner the better, if you can arrive at noon, don't delay until evening, if you can arrive at night, don't delay until tomorrow." Ji Cheng made the request very clear.

Liu Zhi was stunned for a moment, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

Ji Cheng said: "I don't have time to explain right now, so hurry up and do it."

"But there is no way to get a pass so quickly." Liu Zhi said.

Ji Cheng smiled and said, "Didn't you hang around outside before? Is there no way for them to go to Xiangjiang without a permit?"

"Yes, it will be done right away." Liu Zhi stopped talking nonsense.

hang up the phone.

Ji Cheng immediately dialed another number.

The connection was a little slow this time, and Zheng Chun's voice came from the other end after about seven or eight rings, "Hello?"

"Brother Zheng, are you playing outside?" Ji Cheng asked.

Zheng Chun said with a smile: "Isn't that right? I'm going back tomorrow. Cheng Sheng, Teacher Shi and I are going to do some shopping today. We probably won't be back until very late."

Ji Cheng hummed, "Can I ask you something? It's urgent."

"Wait a minute, I'll find a quiet place."

"it is good."

After a while, the noisy sound in the ear disappeared.

Then Zheng Chun said: "Ji Sheng, tell me, what's the matter?"

Ji Chengdao: "I'm going to Xiangjiang today, can you call Uncle Tong and ask him to arrange for me to meet with the person in charge of HSBC and Standard Chartered Bank?"

"Today?" Zheng Chun was a little stunned, "Is it in such a hurry?"

Ji Cheng asked, "Can you help me arrange it?"

Zheng Chun said decisively: "No problem, I'll call now."

Ji Cheng thought for a while, and then said: "Don't make arrangements with HSBC, just use Standard Chartered Bank."

"Okay, it's a trivial matter, when will you arrive in Xiangjiang?" Zheng Chun asked the time.

Ji Cheng thought about it carefully, "Today is the latest Hong Kong time."

Zheng Chun said: "Okay."

Put the microphone back on the base stand.

Ji Cheng absently talked with Aniston for a while.

Not long after, the phone rang.

He immediately picked up the connection, "Hello?"

On the other end was Zheng Chun's voice, "I made an agreement with my dad. I guess you are in a hurry. I greeted him. He will get up and contact Bao Yugang now."

"Thank you." Ji Cheng said gratefully.

Zheng Chun gave Ji Cheng his father's phone number.

After hanging up the phone again, Ji Cheng waited for more than half an hour before receiving Liu Zhi's call back.

Liu Zhi said the first thing he said: "Boss, it's done."

Ji Cheng hummed, "Let Aiguo keep in touch with me at any time, and call me as soon as he arrives in Xiangjiang."

"Okay, I'll tell him." Liu Zhi responded, "Then I'll arrange for them to leave now, and they should be able to reach Xiangjiang in the afternoon."

"it is good."

Ji Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he can negotiate with Standard Chartered Bank, then it's time for him to fight back!

Ah!

You want me to be subdued and act like a dog to make money for those consortiums in the beautiful country?

There are no doors!

It's okay to be a dog, but it's still a bite of these consortiums!

Ji Cheng squeezed the microphone of the landline and couldn't help squinting his eyes. Everything is ready and only owes the east wind. Once the east wind arrives, the horn of counterattack will sound!
