Chapter 1510 The Game of the Koch Family

Remember【 】for a second, free reading of wonderful novels without pop-up windows!

Yang Cheng arrived at Hampton Airport by helicopter, and then got into Conrad's car. This guy actually came to pick him up at the airport in person. Yang Cheng was very pleased.

An old Audi q5 that is so ordinary that it can't be more ordinary seems to be inconsistent with Conrad's wealth status, but he has no such awareness at all. It is just like the old stock god who likes to drive Cadillac. It's not enough to worry about driving a sports car and being able to plunge into the sea with one kick of gas.

"The climate here in Hampton is really comfortable~" Yang Cheng pressed down the window and stretched out his hand outside the car, feeling the soft sea breeze, and couldn't help but sigh.

"That's right, that's why many rich people like Hampton. Do you want to move here?" Conrad took advantage of the opportunity and sent out an invitation, wanting to be neighbors with Yang Cheng.

Yang Cheng didn't even think about it, she just shook her head and refused, "The seaside is too cold in winter, and it's useless to wear thick clothes when the sea breeze blows. If you only live in the summer for a few months, it's better to rent a house."

Conrad disagreed, "However, the land price in Hampton has been growing steadily, and there is still room for further growth in the future. This is much more stable than investing in funds."

Yang Cheng was unmoved, of course, mainly because he had no money recently and couldn't stand the extravagant torment.

Conrad just said in passing, seeing that Yang Cheng had no plans to buy a house, he didn't mention it again, and turned to a modern glass structure building on the side of the road and said, "Look, Kevin Klein's house ~"

Yang Cheng tilted his head, and saw a minimalist modern mansion located on a half slope, which was in line with Kevin Klein's style. As the founder of ck, Kevin was also affectionately known as "The Prince of Seventh Avenue in New York".

"He lives in Southampton all year round now?"

Conrad nodded, "You can often see him riding a horse on the beach, very leisurely, by the way, he also owns several other properties in Long Island."

These words seemed to imply Yang Cheng, look at his eyes.

After driving past Kevin Klein's house, we soon arrived at the mansion of the Koch family, a very imposing white building that perfectly blends with the beach.

"By the way, Jan, have you been very close to Ms. Burns recently?" Conrad asked with a touch of temptation, looking ahead.

Yang Cheng didn't deny it, "There are several cooperations."

"Oh, I mean nothing,

Just to remind you that Ms. Burns is behind EssenMobil. "

Yang Cheng turned to look at Conrad, blinked, and asked suspiciously, "Did you hear any news?"

Conrad shook his head, "No, EssenMobil's recent expansion momentum is very strong, we must be more vigilant."

Yang Cheng thought that he was worried about his zz position, but he didn't expect that he was afraid that his own interests would be damaged. After all, he had invested a lot of resources in Beihai Petroleum.

But it doesn't matter to Yang Cheng. He is undoubtedly deeply involved in the traditional energy field. He invests in nuclear power plants and waste recycling power plants, all of which are new energy sources and have great potential in the future.

As for oil, it’s good to make more money, and it doesn’t matter if you can’t. Anyway, Delta Airlines has a big business, and Beihai Petroleum’s products can’t be used, and other people’s can be used.

Conrad Koch's investment in North Sea Oil is completely a private investment and has nothing to do with the family, at least according to the law, so he cares more than Yang Cheng.

Before I had time to say more, the Audi car drove into the gate of the manor. A winding driveway leads to the quiet green depths, which is extremely private without losing the natural beauty.

The house is actually owned by Conrad's uncle, David Koch, and his father, Charles, chooses to spend more time in the luxury apartment in Manhattan.

But the two often meet and talk here, and over time, people are willing to call this manor "Koch Manor".

Nowadays, in the United States and even in the world, when mentioning the Koch family, people first think of the two brothers Charles and David, but in fact the famous Koch Industries was founded by the father of the Koch brothers, Fred Koch .

The old Koch graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a major in chemical engineering. He developed a new refining technology, which not only reduced the cost of refining, but also increased the output.

Since Fred's work doesn't charge users a royalty, it further makes the technology more attractive to small, independent refiners.

In the late 1920s, fearing the increasing competitiveness of independent refineries, the "patent club" formed by oil giants filed a lawsuit, accusing Fred and the refineries he served of infringing on patent rights.

Although none of these lawsuits were successful in the end, they caused huge losses to Koch Industries at the time.

Fred had no choice but to flee to the Soviet Union in the besieged crisis and built 15 cracking plants there, so that the predecessor of Koch Industries survived.

In fact, Fred had four children, the eldest son Frederick, the second son Charles, and twin brothers David and William. After Fred passed away, the Koch family inevitably fell into family struggles. After a bloody infighting, Charles and David overcame the other two brothers and gained control of Koch Industries.

The two brothers are even more talented in business and zz than their father, and they are even better than blue. As senior zz players in modern America, the Koch family holds the big stick of Koch Industry in one hand. China calls the wind and rain, while influencing zz by supporting schools, think tanks and non-profit organizations.

The two-pronged approach also allowed this family full of strong zz colors to sway across the American continent.

The 8-year round of the game is staged again this year, and the Koch brothers will naturally enter the game. It is said that this year the Koch brothers spent as much as 2.5 billion dollars in bullets for the Elephant Party to help the Elephant Party win the championship, and the election fees at all levels across the United States are even higher. It is close to 1 billion. Of course, the purpose of all this is to promote the passage of a tax reform bill that is in their own interests.

Once the bill is passed, the benefits obtained by the Koch family will far exceed 2.5 billion US dollars, or even more than ten times!

But the problem now is that the two Koch brothers don't like Tang Lade's upstart face, and they can even be said to hate it. De expressed Hong Guoguo's ridicule. For this reason, Tang Lade was also angry, and he shouted from the air.

The relationship between the two parties was very tense, so a rare situation occurred. The Koch brothers, who have always been staunch supporters of the Elephant Party, actually allocated part of their resources to support Mrs. Zipperton. This is rare in decades. A sight to behold.

In order to save their big benefactor, Xiangdang did not hesitate to make a series of promises as compensation, so it barely allowed the benefactor to change direction and fully support the deadly enemy.

The above is all the information collected by Yang Cheng before coming here. He estimated that the Koch brothers will definitely talk about relevant topics in today's meeting. He can't be unprepared, can he?
