v3 Chapter 1508： Ma Zai took the initiative to defect

The Rothschild family has been prosperous for hundreds of years.

In the process of becoming the sixth empire in the world, it was inevitable to make enemies with countless forces.

But on the other hand.

There are also quite a lot of younger brothers supported or incorporated by the Rothschild family.

Although many like the Rockefeller family and the Morgan family took the initiative to devour the Lord after their strength.

There are also passive defections like the Barrett family.

But there are still many who have been following them.

The reason why I have not betrayed, some are because I have a better life and do not want to betray, and some do not have the courage and courage to betray.

And this time.

The scene where the National Westminster Bank was swallowed up by the Bright Consortium, but the Rothschild family was helpless, really stimulated many people and gave them courage.

Shock Rhodes is one of them.

Speaking of which, the Rhodes family has followed the Rothschild family for more than a hundred years, and has always been a subsidiary family force of the Rothschild family.

Although the Rhodes family is not considered a top family in Europe, it is still considered a second-rate family.

At the end of the last century, Cecil Rhodes began to make a fortune, and accepted the investment from the Rothschild family at that time, and established De Beers in Luxembourg to engage in the jewelry sales industry.

Cecil Rhodes is very capable, and is covered by the Rothschild family, so De Beers is doing well.

It's just that with the Rothschild family's repeated capital injections, the Rhodes family's shareholding ratio in De Beers has continued to decline.

Even so, it doesn't matter to Cecil Rhodes. After all, the equity has shrunk, but the total wealth has increased, and with the support of the Rothschild family, De Beers has always been in control. Rhodes The influence of the Si family continues to expand.

It was just a later incident that made Cecil Rhodes unacceptable. In the end, he suffered a serious illness and died of depression, leaving the family to the next generation.

This matter involved two other families, namely the Oppenheimer family and the Morgan family.

In 1917, Ernst Oppenheimer and a member of the Morgan family established a company in South Africa—Anglo American South Africa.

At that time, South Africa was being colonized by the British, and Ernst Oppenheimer had a very high influence in South Africa with the influence of the British military.

Then it formed an alliance with the Morgan family, which made the South African Anglo American Resources Company grow rapidly.

Of course, the dominance of Anglo American in South Africa has always been in the hands of the Oppenheimer family.

It was only after the development and growth that it was inevitable that the Morgan family also moved their minds and planned to control the South African Anglo American Resources Company.

At that time, the struggle between the Rothschild family, the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family had turned from darkness to light.

in this case.

The Rothschild family spent a lot of effort and successfully pulled the Oppenheimer family to their side.

The Morgan family was directly cheated, and more than half of the influence of Anglo American Resources in South Africa was cleaned up. After that, they could only accept the continuous decline of their shareholding ratio step by step.

This process is very complicated, but the result is very simple.

The Rothschild family sold the Rhodes family, allowing the South African Anglo American plc to take over De Beers, and part of the Rothschild family's equity in De Beers was converted into part of the South African Anglo American plc.

De Beers also cross-holds part of the shares of Anglo American in South Africa.

The two companies have cross-shareholdings, and the controlling party has become the Oppenheimer family, and the Rothschild family's influence ranks second.

The frustrated party, apart from the Morgan family, was the Rhodes family who became victims and founded De Beers.

It's just that with the strength of the Rhodes family, they can only be forced to accept this result in the face of the Rothschild family, which is like a majestic mountain.

Since then, the Rhodes family has kept a low profile, silently developing the Rhodes Group, and with the efforts of three generations, it has become a large group.

…

Bright Fund, front desk.

Shock Rhodes, dressed in a neat suit, walked in with his assistants and bodyguards.

After the assistant stepped forward and said a few words to the front desk staff, someone immediately guided Xiao Ke Rhodes to the elevator.

And at this time.

George Berkeley, who was in the president's office, also received the notification from the front desk and immediately ordered the secretary to get ready.

Not long after.

George Berkeley heard footsteps from far to near, and after he got up, he happened to see the figure of Shock Rhodes appearing at the door.

He smiled, came out from the desk, and greeted Xiaoke Rhodes warmly.

Seeing George Berkeley's move, Xiao Ke Rhodes also smiled and quickened his pace.

"Welcome, Mr. Xiao Ke!"

"Thanks to Mr. George's invitation, I was able to come to this palace that the whole European financial community is looking forward to visiting."

Hold tight to George Berkeley's hand, Shock Rhodes touts.

Knowing that the other party was flattering, George Berkeley was still very happy.

"Mr. Xiao Ke, your reputation is too high, please sit down."

"Would you like something?"

"Black coffee with a lump of sugar, no milk."

"..."

After a few simple greetings, someone began to prepare coffee.

And Xiao Ke Rhodes' bodyguards were also standing outside the door, and there were only a few people in the office.

"Mr. Xiao Ke, I am very happy that you can come to my place, and please rest assured that we will not be harsh on our friends."

When George Berkeley looked at Shaw Rhodes just now, he noticed that the other party seemed to be uneasy, so at the beginning, he sincerely expressed his attitude.

In fact, both parties are well aware of what is going to be discussed today.

Although it was an invitation sent by George Berkeley, the moment Shock Rhodes really chose to accept the invitation meant that Shock Rhodes had already made a choice.

The other party was so witty and courageous, so of course George Berkeley had to show his sincerity.

Today's theme is "cooperation", with only one purpose - win-win!

Soon, the coffee was brewed and served.

While drinking coffee, the two started a small talk negotiation.

The whole process was harmonious, there was no situation where the lion opened his mouth, and there was no threat of waving a stick to hit your bones.

In just half an hour, two major aspects of cooperation were reached. UU reading

First, the Rhodes family transferred all of their 13.46% stake in De Beers to Bright Fund at a premium of 10%, completely withdrawing from the company that their family has participated in for 99 years since its establishment. company.

In the second aspect, Rhodes Group will reach strategic partnerships with more than a dozen companies under the Guangming Consortium, including Guangming Huabao, Rolls-Royce Motor Group, Royal Bank of Scotland, ap Moller-Maersk, etc., within the next week relation.

The moment when Shock Rhodes and George Berkeley finally shook hands.

It means that the Rhodes family has completely said goodbye to the Rothschild family, and they have fully turned to the Guangming Consortium and become the horsemen of the Guangming Consortium.

at the same time.

Xia Yu, who was far away in Hong Kong, also made another move on the matter of Anglo American Resources in South Africa, and made a phone call with John Chris Morgan.

The parties strike a deal.

Morgan Stanley, the third largest shareholder of South Africa's Anglo American, transferred all of its 9.88% stake to Jiuding Securities.

After Jiuding Securities Company took over the equity, it immediately transferred the equity to Bright Fund.
