A white private helicopter with the Adams family logo slowly landed on the roof of the Brighton Bank Building. Christo bent over, grabbed his hat and clothes with both hands, walked off the helicopter under the strong wind of the helicopter, and followed the building managers to the top meeting room of the bank.

When Christo pushed open the door of the conference room, there were three other people sitting here, namely Edward, Lawrence and Louis. Christo stepped forward and sat in his seat. He looked at the three people in front of him and said without saying nonsense: "I came here today because of a loan issue for Brighton Bank. I hope to give me a satisfactory answer from you!"

As Christo said, he signaled his secretary to distribute the documents to the other three people and said, "This is the document I received yesterday about the company's business. It was said that it was yesterday. There was a Chinese man named Zhou Ming in the novel. He came to handle the loan business for Wharton Insurance Company. He wanted to mortgage the three thousand properties owned by the company and then borrowed $700 million."

Christo paused at this point. He looked around Edward Lawrence and Louis before saying, "I know that all three of you have an alliance with that Chinese, but I hope you all don't forget that you are the patriarchs of the three major families of Kendian Lawrence and Lowell, and then they are the partners with that Chinese."

Christo also said: "The three families of Kendian Lawrence and Lowell are also important pillars of the Brighton Consortium. The Chinese behavior of your gang leader is a betrayal of the consortium and your ancestors. If you continue to be obsessed with it, it is difficult for me to guarantee what I will do. Do you understand?"

Faced with Christo's aggressiveness, Edward said: "Of course we can understand, but now the money has been handed over to Zhou Ming. Are you planning to recover it through the banking system, Mr. Christo?"

"I would be happy to do this if I can, but I came here today to remind you through this matter and tell you what to do if you encounter such a thing. There is another last thing. I don't understand why Zhou Ming has to borrow another loan after 700 million US dollars? And it's also a 700 million US dollars?" Christo looked at the two completely different documents in his hand and asked strangely.

"According to the Chinese, he was trying to solve the debt problem of Brooke Investment Company. Through this $1.4 billion loan, he could eliminate Brooke Investment Company's debts." Louis replied.

"But as far as I know, the ownership of the last three thousand properties mortgaged by the Chinese is still in the hands of Brook Investment Company. Why can the Chinese apply for a loan in the name of Wharton Insurance Company? Brook and Wharton have not yet carried out any mergers and acquisitions, right?" Christo asked.

Faced with Christo's problem, Edward Lawrence and Louis both laughed, and finally Edward said to Christo: "It seems you don't know that Zhou Ming has bought the ownership of the last three thousand properties of Brook Investment Company."

Christo was stunned for a moment, because he really didn't know the news. It seemed that Brooke had also betrayed him.

But what made Christo even more heartbroken was that Edward Lawrence and Louis knew about the news, but he was the only one who knew about it. The meaning behind it made him solemn.

Christo took a deep breath, and finally waved his hand and decided not to talk about this issue for the time being. He then asked Edward Lawrence and Louis: "Actually, the news you said is not important. What is important is that you still agree to borrow a loan for Zhou Ming this time? Like the first time, on the premise that you know that his mortgaged assets are not worth 700 million."

Edward Lawrence and Louis both nodded and said yes. As Christo said just now, the loan to Zhou Ming was as much as 700 million yuan for the first time. Originally, at Brighton Bank, the account manager would never dare to make such a decision. He even called Christo to inform him. But before the manager came back, he refused Zhou Ming, and Edward and others first issued Zhou Ming's loan through their own.

Christo knew the news that almost slapped his desk, but Christo was still very calm. He knew that it would be useless. After he learned that Zhou Ming had another loan, he finally couldn't sit still and asked the three of them to have a meeting.

Christo sneered, his eyes swept back and forth to Edward Lawrence and Louis and finally asked: "Do you think you are also directors of Brighton Bank, so you can challenge me at will and lend money regardless of my opinion?"

"I think Mr. Christo maybe you misunderstood. We don't mean that, we just..."

Edward wanted to explain something, but before he could finish his words, Christo overshadowed him and continued, "But don't forget that our Adams family is the leader of Brighton Bank. I know that so many years have passed, you may have forgotten this. Then I can hold all the board meetings of Brighton Bank to let you reminisce."

Christo's words suddenly became harsh: "But I think you must all know the consequences of this board meeting, as long as you can afford it."

This made Edward Lawrence and Louis a little chill. As the core family of the Brighton Consortium, they certainly understood the meaning behind the so-called Brighton Bank Board Conference.

According to the United States' antitrust law, all corporate groups in the United States cannot form too much monopoly trend, so excessive corporate consortiums will be artificially broken up. As the oldest consortium in the United States, the Brighton Consortium certainly understands this. Therefore, although Brighton Bank is the center of the consortium, the funds are indeed scattered and hidden in the hands of many other shareholders, so there are not many assets on the table.

These shareholders and directors, because they are members of various families, can master a lot of wealth and usually appear as bosses of various companies. However, once someone gathers these people together, they will be the real Brighton consortium.

I still remember the last time the Brighton Bank board meeting was held 28 years ago. It was caused by the assassination of President Kendine. At that time, the conflict between the two major families of Adams and Kendine had reached a point where they were about to separate. Finally, the patriarch of the Adams family launched the board meeting.

It was at this board meeting that the Adams family once again established their dominance in the consortium. Kendian still ranked second, but they lost their past influence within the consortium. Finally and most importantly, as a die-hard ally of the Kendian family, the Barber family was invited out of the consortium and became a motel to live.

The reason for such a result is very simple, that is, the Adams family has absolute control over the entire consortium, and the best choice for other directors is to follow his leadership.

In this case, the result of the meeting was naturally what the Adams family wanted.

Perhaps one day the Kendian Lawrence and the Lowell family will not be afraid of the Brighton Bank board meeting, and even have the ability to rebel against the Adams family at the board meeting, but it is definitely not now.

Under such an idea, Edward Lawrence and Louis both shook their heads at the same time.

Seeing this situation, Christo smiled because this was the result he wanted, so he finally said: "I think you have no objection now, so the loan of that Chinese must be rejected, and the account of that Chinese at Brighton Bank must also be found. If his loan has not been spent, it must be frozen immediately!"

After hearing what Christo said, Edward looked up at him and said, "Sir, if I were you, I would definitely not do this, because this would make us too cautious."

"I don't think so." Christo said that he hadn't seen the scene in Edward's eyes, or he didn't care if he saw it. He just wanted to find the face he had lost from Zhou Ming. "I just think this is called simple targeting, so that the Chinese understands that some things he can't touch in his life."

Christo paused at this point, and he looked at Edward Lawrence and Louis in front of him, and then said: "The four major families of Adam Skendine Lawrence and Lowell have been alliances that have been united for hundreds of years by mutual marriage and trust. The four of us were also very good friends thirty years ago, so I don't want to ruin the rare friendship between us because of a Chinese."

After saying that, Christo left, leaving Edward Lawrence and Louis in the conference room. Louis smiled and said, "It seems that Christo was also so angry that he was going crazy by Zhou Ming, otherwise he would not have moved out of the board meeting so simply to scare us."

Edward shrugged meaninglessly: "There is nothing to do. Since the last board meeting, Christo has been the patriarch of the Adams family for thirty years. In other words, he has not been so angry in thirty years. Now the Chinese man has forced him to give up Brooke Investment Company, and the worst thing is to borrow money from Brighton Bank. In other words, he takes money from his pocket and then forces him to lower his head. How can he bear this anger?"

"And he really regarded himself as the emperor of the Brighton Consortium. He even talked about friendship and trust to us, and threatened us what we said later. Is it because our IQ is not enough? Eat his stick and carrots?" Lawrence sneered.

Edward waved his hand: "Actually, I don't think these are the most important. Now every step of Christo's idea is in the calculation of that Chinese Zhou Ming. It seems that the time to pull the Adams family from the throne is getting closer and closer." Mobile phone users please visit http://m.piaotian.net
