Chapter 255 The Atlantic Garden Plan

"Jason, since this is the case, we will do as you said. We will join hands to acquire no more than 3% of the shares. I hope we can work together." Conrad joined the project, seemingly replacing Abramovich's dominant position at once. No wonder, as the heir of the Koch family, Koch Industries has already penetrated many industrial fields such as crude oil extraction, refining, trade, pipeline transportation, road asphalt, etc. It is the most important oil trader in the world and the largest liquefied petroleum gas in North America. Without his participation in the processing group, I don't know how long it would take for the crude oil extracted by Abu and the others to be converted into refined oil for sale.

Yang Cheng nodded, and raised his glass with a triumphant smile, "Remember to give me a discounted price then."

Next, after the three chatted for a short time, Abramovich left to spend time with his family, while Yang Cheng stayed at the Koch Manor and had lunch with Conrad.

While the lunch was still being prepared, Conrad invited Yang Cheng to visit the garden, "Jason, I think our two families need to deepen our communication and connection with each other"

Yang Cheng glanced at Conrad in surprise, of course he didn't think that what Conrad was talking about was an ordinary family relationship, but a business cooperation between the two families, "The Koch family is the most staunch supporter of the Elephant Party, He is also the most traditional conservative, why do you suddenly want to unite our Chinese family?"

Conrad's meaningful smile made Yang Cheng a little uneasy, "But our two families have something in common. The Koch family has always maintained the purity of blood and does not allow outsiders to get involved, while the Yang family has always insisted on neutrality in New York for so many years. It’s been a stance for years, but it’s been under increasing pressure lately, am I right?”

Yang Cheng frowned, and said casually, "Obviously, this is not a secret." In recent months, the Yang family's dominant position in Yuanshan Capital has been challenged by the board of directors one after another. It was no longer a secret story, but thanks to Yang Sen's tough tactics, he sent several executives and directors to prison cells in succession, and barely suppressed the turmoil.

"So the Yang family needs helpers and external forces to counter those opponents who forced Yuanshan Capital to go public." Conrad stopped under the shade of a tree and said, patting the trunk.

"Hehe, to be honest, the pressure on the Koch family itself is not small, right? After all, the cake of Koch Industry is much bigger than that of Yuanshan Capital." Yang Cheng avoided talking, and fiddled with her hair in the breeze.

"But we have enough resilience, otherwise our ZZ investment for so many years would have been in vain?" Conrad said proudly, not paying attention to Yang Cheng's teasing.

"That's true, but you haven't answered me yet, why do you want to unite with the Yang family?" Yang Cheng put his hands back in his pockets, and solemnly pointed out the core question.

"Because we are all aliens in this country." Conrad's eyes flashed, and he blurted out without hesitation.

Yang Cheng froze for a moment, raised her eyebrows and said in puzzlement, "The Koch family has always advocated white supremacy."

"It's all old history. My grandfather formed such a narrow thinking because of certain things. Although my father and uncle inherited this thinking, under the impact of the trend of the new era, their thinking slowly changed. In my generation, conservatism is no longer synonymous with the Koch family." Conrad's patient explanation made Yang Cheng realize that the steel giant of the Koch family is finally ready to set sail.

"So, how do you want to deepen cooperation? Cross-shareholding? Excuse me for saying something harsh, unless your father and your uncle are no longer alive, they won't agree." Yang Cheng pursed her lips, smiled and shook her head, obviously The outlook for cross-shareholdings is not good.

Conrad smiled and agreed, "That's true, so I think we can start with a personal cooperation."

"For example?" Yang Cheng spoke up.

"For example, you and I bought a sports club for fun?" Conrad looked into the distance and said with deep meaning.

"Sports club? This~" Yang Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, a bit like beating a mosquito with a cannon, cooperating with so many foreshadowings in front, just for a club? And it's a personal purchase.

How can it help Yuanshan Capital?

The wonderful expression on Yang Cheng's face was naturally seen by Conrad, he patted Yang Cheng's shoulder with a big smile and walked forward, Yang Cheng followed closely, and Conrad laughed, "Jason, you Do you think I'm going to lie to you about this?"

Seeing Yang Cheng showing confusion again, Conrad shook his head and asked, "Brooklyn Nets, do you know?"

Yang Cheng nodded, "Of course, Mikhail's team, someone asked me to jointly buy the Nets before."

"So, what do you know about Barclays Center?" Conrad asked again.

"Uh~ To be honest, I only know that Barclays Center is currently the most luxurious multi-purpose venue in the NBA and even in the United States. It is said to cost 1 billion US dollars." Yang Cheng thought about it, and replied embarrassingly.

"That's right, but what you don't know is that around Barclays Center, New York City Hall has a comprehensive plan. The internal project is code-named Atlantic Court! A large complex living area covering an area of ​​600,000 square meters, just one bridge away from Manhattan After that, the goal is to build this area into New York’s second Central Park. This plan was first proposed by a real estate company from country Z, but it has now been suppressed by the New York City government.”

The more Yang Cheng listened, the more excited she became. Everything else was nonsense. The development of 600,000 square meters of living real estate in New York was in Brooklyn, an area with a large population in New York. What's more, after so many years of hard work by the New York City government, Brooklyn has long been It is not the former slum area, it has great economic vitality and great development potential.

Yang Cheng's reaction was not slow. Since Conrad mentioned this project, coupled with the cooperation tendency he proposed before, he naturally planned to fight for this project for Yuanshan Capital. Don't forget that Yuanshan started as a real estate company. This super project involving tens of billions of dollars in revenue can become a symbol. The influence of Yuanshan in New York will rise in a straight line, and the entire living area will involve many merchants and partners. Merchants have become long-term partners in distant places, greatly increasing the bargaining chips for confrontation.

But what good does this do for the Koch family? Cooperation must be profitable, otherwise the Koch family will make wedding dresses for others for no reason?

But no matter what the Koch family wants, Yuanshan must win this project, because Yuanshan Capital must make the most profit in the end. Yang Cheng still has this confidence. Thinking of this, he can't help breathing quickly.

He licked his face flatteringly, "Uncle Conrad, let's discuss how to win the Brooklyn Nets and the ownership of the Barclays Center?"

Conrad nodded at Yang Cheng speechlessly, and said with a smile that he didn't know whether to praise or derogate, "Cunning little fox~"
