Lin Hongfei took out a miniature tape recorder from his bag, gently placed it on the table, and pressed the play button, and the next moment, a voice that was not very loud but extremely clear came out of the speaker of the miniature tape recorder: "Mr. Brown, impossible, the current international wheat price is only 125 US dollars / ton, how can it be 139.5 US dollars?" If you insist on not lowering the price, then sorry, we will have to buy from somewhere else, even the futures market. ”

The voice is very familiar, although it sounds strong, but if you listen closely, you will have a strong smell of inwardness, and when you listen to it, it is Holger. Breich's voice.

What does that mean? Thomas was a little confused, but he definitely didn't speak, and since Holger looked so confident, let me keep listening: any banker needs to be patient. But then, as the recording continued, things were not the same, and gradually, beads of sweat were already forming on Thomas's forehead.

"Mr. Thomas, this is the result of Mr. Holger's meeting with GavilonGroup LLC, one of the major grain merchants in the United States, yesterday," Lin Hongfei pressed the pause button of the micro tape recorder, and looked up at Thomas with an expressionless face, "In addition to GavilonGroup LLC, there are also the results of Mr. Holger's talks with ADM, Bunge and Cargill, Mr. Thomas, now, synthesizing our four recordings, We have a good reason to prove that Citibank leaked our investment plan, and as an insider of my plan and the person who handled the loan, Mr. Thomas, do you need to give us an explanation? ”

"Mr. Thomas, we are friends. So as angry as I'm angry, I'm still willing to give you a chance, but if you can't give me a satisfactory answer, I don't mind telling my friends that Citibank is not a reliable partner...... I believe that after knowing what happened to me, my friends will be very sympathetic to me. ”

"This ...... I think it should be a misunderstanding, yes, it must be a misunderstanding! Thomas wiped the sweat from his forehead, and at this moment, he really understood Holger. The reason why Breich came to Citibank for trouble. Citibank is too suspicious, "Mr. Holger, I'm sorry for what happened to you, but it's about Citibank's reputation, and I want you to think twice before you do it." ”

"Thomas. It doesn't make sense for you to say that," it seems that Thomas is planning to push six-two-five on this matter. Holger. Broich looked at him fixedly. Suddenly smiled coldly, "You see, I will never tell my friends that your Citibank deliberately leaked the confidential information of customers, I will only tell my friends what happened to me and remind them to pay attention...... You see, we're not breaking the law. Right? We are all good citizens. ”

"Nope! No, no, no," Thomas was in a hurry at once, yes, if Holger. . . Broich really did that. He really didn't say anything bad about Citibank to anyone, but just complained a few words about his bad luck to his friend, but it fell into the ears of his friend, then it was different, anyone also had an idea in his heart: this thing, no evidence is needed, free heart can be proven, as long as I think there is a problem with your bank, then there must be a problem.

"But Thomas, you have to know a little bit more about it, for the bank's customers, they don't need to have enough evidence, they just have to think that Citibank really has the potential to leak the customer's confidential information, and that's enough." Regardless of the sweaty Thomas, Holger. Broich stood up and walked out, and when he reached the door, he looked back at the bank manager, who seemed to be very respectful to him, but in fact he was very disdainful of himself, and smiled disdainfully, "Freedom of the mind is a God-given right for the bank's customers. ”

Lin Hongfei followed Holger. "Mr. Thomas, you have three days to resolve this issue, and hopefully the final result will satisfy us." ”

Saying that, this guy followed Holger. Broich walked out of the corner with his head held high behind him...... It looks a bit like a fox and a fake tiger.

————————————————————————

Holger, who had just come to ask the guilty frame with a fierce look. Broich, as soon as he got into the car, the color of his face suddenly changed, "Boss, is this okay?" ”

He couldn't accept that Citibank, with its total assets of hundreds of billions of dollars and annual profits of tens of billions of dollars, would succumb to his threat.

"Holger, don't think about it," Lin Hongfei smiled and patted Holger's shoulder, "Don't worry, they will definitely give us an explanation." ”

"Well, you're the boss," Holger. Broich shook his head, although he was not very optimistic about this matter in his heart, but obviously this matter was decided by his boss, not to mention that it would be clear in three days anyway, and the top priority was now, "What are we going to do now?" ”

"Go directly to the American Farmers Association," Lin Hongfei smiled extremely happily, "I'm looking forward to the members of the Farmers Association knowing what kind of expressions those damn grain merchants will have on their faces after taking the grain from them at a low price and selling it at such a high price?" ”

Farmers in the United States have a tradition of uniting against the big grain merchants, such as winter wheat, and before the start of planting every year, the grain merchants will sign a purchase contract with the farmers, but this contract is not directly negotiated with each farmer from door to door, but directly to the farmers' association.

Of course, they call this situation industry self-discipline, which is a good thing, to ensure that both farmers and grain merchants have enough profits, and everyone has to make money and be happy, but if the farmers know that they have been tricked......

Holger. Breich shuddered: the agricultural situation in Germany was actually similar to that in the United States, and he knew something about it......

…………………………………………

New York is the economic core city of the United States, and the American Farmers Association will naturally not let go of such a place. Broich was not in the business of agriculture, but a billionaire was warmly received by the association's vice president, White...... It is necessary to maintain enough respect for a billionaire, and even if you are the vice president of the association, there is no shame in hosting a billionaire in person.

"Mr. Holger, ......what are you here today," said Vice President Wright, who asked suspiciously. Naturally, he doesn't think that a billionaire who has nothing to do with agriculture is just a fan of the farmers' association.

"Mr. White, I have found something very infuriating," said Holger. Broich immediately changed his angry face, "You are an expert in agriculture, I would like to ask, if I want to sign a grain purchase order of hundreds of thousands of tons at a time, should I enjoy some preferential treatment?" ”

"Of course," Vice President White nodded without hesitation, not to mention that purchasing hundreds of thousands of tons of grain at a time, even if it is only a few thousand tons at a time, this can be regarded as a big customer, "Although I don't know very well, but in my personal experience, it seems that I should enjoy at least 10% price discount." ”

"That's what pains me the most, that you've been deceived by those hateful grain merchants," Holger. Breich said, nodding to Lin Hongfei, who was sitting on the side.

Lin Hongfei once again put the miniature tape recorder that he had taken out in front of the manager of Citibank Thomas on the table, and said to White, "Dear Mr. White, we are going to purchase a batch of grain, about hundreds of thousands of tons...... Mr. Holger is a kind man, but Mr. Holger's contacts with ADM, Bunge, Cargill, and Gavilon Group LLC have saddened us, and made us even more angry at the members of the American Farmers Association who have been deceived by these greedy grain merchants. ”

After speaking, Lin Hongfei pressed the play button of the tape recorder.

……………………

As Lin Hongfei expected, just after listening to the first paragraph, White's face was not very good-looking, and anyone who was treated as a fool would not look good: I originally thought that the profits were discussed by everyone, but I didn't expect that after a year of hard work, the poor farmers only made a little hard-earned money, and those damn grain merchants did such a shameful thing behind their backs...... It's just unbearable!

White does not doubt the authenticity of the recording, and as vice president of the American Farmers Association, it is a basic requirement that White be familiar with the key top executives of these major grain suppliers in the United States.

But soon, White's heart rejoiced: What is this recording? This is your passport to change from vice president to president! If I can make the majority of American farmers get more income, won't the next president of the Farmers Association become his own meal?!

What a nice man Mr. Holger is!

"Mr. Holger, you are a true gentleman, thank you for telling me this," White twisted his expression into an angry expression, holding back the excitement in his heart, "This is really a painful thing, and only we know the hard work of the farmers...... If you don't mind, can I leave a copy of this recording? ”

"Well, don't worry, the American Farmers Association will never sit idly by and watch this happen, and I assure you that even if our association comes forward in person, it will help you organize a batch of enough grain for you to procure."

"Of course." Lin Hongfei smiled with satisfaction: This is the association that really thinks about its members, right? (To be continued.) )
