Chapter 47

The next morning, Li Feng got up early and was ready to go to the Citibank center located at 444 South Flower Street in Los Angeles.

For this famous high-rise building in Los Angeles, even if Li Feng is ignorant, he has heard of it for more than 10 years in Los Angeles.

Yesterday, I learned that as the second largest city in the United States, Citibank certainly has a headquarters building in Los Angeles.

The central building of Citibank in Los Angeles is 191 meters high and 48 floors. It is the 10th tallest building in Los Angeles. It was completed in 1979 with a construction area of more than 80000 square meters. It is located in the commercial center near Los Angeles landmark Pershing square (Pershing Square).

As for Pershing square, as long as people from Los Angeles and even California are familiar with it, it is one of the landmarks of Los Angeles and even California, a major place for citizens' life and entertainment in downtown Los Angeles, and the surrounding natural business is prosperous.

The Citibank center is located here, which shows its extraordinary position in the United States.

......

Citibank is definitely a big civilized bank all over the world. Even people with little knowledge have heard of Citibank. Citibank has always been the flagship of its parent company Citigroup.

The "Citigroup extreme black card" of later generations is known as the only black card comparable to the "express Centurion card", which is famous for its unique service concept.

What really made Citigroup one of the world's bank representatives was its merger with traveller group in 1998 and the establishment of a new Citigroup.

Citigroup has become the first financial group in the United States to integrate commercial banks, investment banks, insurance, funds, securities trading and other financial services.

This merger is known as a model of the merger of financial groups. The former Citigroup mainly focused on commercial banks and travelers mainly focused on finance and insurance. After the merger, they complement each other and become a comprehensive large financial group, which made a good start for the merger of large banking groups in the United States.

For example, Morgan Stanley merged with Chase Manhattan Bank to become * * * * bank, making these financial giants a comprehensive financial services group.

......

Citibank is naturally the flagship of Citigroup, which makes Citibank establish its position in the financial and banking industry.

Of course, Citibank also has ups and downs. For example, it almost went bankrupt in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The world-famous Saudi prince Wadley invested in Citibank in 1990 to make it famous in one fell swoop.

For example, after the subprime mortgage crisis, Citigroup almost went bankrupt again. The US imperial government invested tens of billions to turn Citigroup around.

At its peak, Citigroup had a market value of 300 billion to 400 billion and controlled more than $2 trillion in assets. It was known as the first Citibank consortium and one of the famous American Empire consortia.

......

Why did Li Feng choose Citigroup instead of banks that also have great influence in the United States, such as America (later Bank of America), Wells Fargo and so on.

For one thing, he was influenced by Citigroup in later generations. Many people in later generations may not have heard of Bank of America and Wells Fargo, but they must have heard of Citibank. Although the strength of Bank of America and Wells Fargo is no less than or even better than Citigroup.

After the subprime mortgage crisis in the future, Citigroup needs the help of the American government to tide over the difficulties, while Bank of America and Wells Fargo are taking the opportunity to acquire and expand. We know the strength of these two banks, which is absolutely no less than Citigroup or even more than Citigroup.

Second, Li Feng knows that Citigroup's financial services are better, especially the personalized services for the super rich are more in place. Just think about why Citigroup's black card is known as the American Express Centurion black card comparable to the "king of black card" in the future.

Li Feng is very confident that he will be one of the super rich in the future, and the upcoming money encircling plan after Netscape's listing also needs a professional stock operation team.

It's too troublesome for Li Feng to do it himself, and Citigroup can easily solve these troubles for Li Feng. This is also the reason why Li Feng came to the center of Citibank this time. Otherwise, he would deposit millions and would not want to go to the headquarters.

......

When the three of Li Feng arrived at the center of Citibank, Billy Zhang was already waiting for Li Feng and them at the door.

"Hello, Mr. St. John Lee. I'm Billy Zhang, the account manager of Citibank. Nice to meet you."

Obviously, when Billy Zhang saw the three coming, he greeted Li Feng directly. He should have known himself.

I have to feel that Laomei's service industry is too developed. He used to be an ordinary account opening. Because he suddenly saw tens of millions of money, he immediately recognized it when he met someone for the first time. Obviously, he should have investigated himself.

Li Feng also shook hands with him, responded, and then introduced Xia Zach, saying he was a temporary guardian and a part-time private lawyer, and Bob was said to be a bodyguard.

Well, after listening to Li Feng's introduction, Billy stayed for a while and thought of coming out with his private lawyer and bodyguard. Who would have thought that Li Feng was born an orphan.

Looking at Billy Zhang, who was obviously Chinese, Li Feng smiled. Through the conversation, we learned that Citigroup considered that it might be a Chinese American through Li Feng's name. Therefore, we let Zhang Billy receive it.

It can be seen that these banks have really worked hard for a senior customer.

......

Billy took Li Feng directly to an office on the second floor. Through the conversation, we know that Li Feng needs to upgrade the account level this time, and Li Feng needs to sign. Originally, Li Feng thought these needed to be done in the bank hall, but they were all done in the office.

Of course, Zach will come in handy at this time. Zach will look at it every time before signing. After all, Li Feng knows that the bank is not so kind. Which bank in the future will not break out all kinds of scandals from time to time.

Put away the checkbook, bank card and some documents. In this way, Li Feng became the top VIP user of Citigroup, the so-called platinum card customer.

With a brand-new checkbook and a new credit card, Li Feng thought that we could also sign a check. Thinking about the film plots of previous lives, he always signed a check. Now he is a little really beginning to enter the rich life.

In addition to the checkbook and platinum credit card, I thought it was not a black card, and I didn't know if I would be invited when the black card was pushed out.

I've heard of black cards in my previous life. Unfortunately, there are no black cards in the world. When will the black cards be launched? The king of black cards such as Citigroup and express has to make a few for 13.

Thinking of all kinds of face slapping scenes in later legends, Zach and others were surprised for a while and thought he was so happy to be a Citibank gold card.

After completing all the upgrade procedures, Li Feng is ready to get down to business.

......

"Billy, I said on the phone yesterday that I need a real estate agent. I wonder if you can arrange it for me?"

"Mr. Li, I have contacted the real estate agent. If necessary, I can call someone at any time.

However, I heard that you want to buy a house. Our asset management department asked me to ask. Our bank also has houses, some of which are entrusted by the bank and some are mortgaged, which can be sold directly. I wonder if you think it is feasible? "

"Well, that's OK. You can have a look. If there's something suitable, you can decide directly. Well, I'll fix a price. It's within 3 or 4 million, preferably on the Beverly Hills side of Hollywood. " Li Feng thought about it and replied.

"Thank you. That's the best. Wait a minute. I'll call there and ask them to bring the real estate information for your reference." Then he picked up the phone and dialed directly.

......

Seeing the other party's hurry, Li Feng smiled helplessly and was ready to say that he had to wait for the other party to arrange stock operators.
