Chapter 2684: A Wishful Deception

But there was no time for him to be happy. He was secretly happy for a while before Feng Yiping heard the elevator ring and Wu Qian came up again, which meant that he had something to do again.

It was like this when he arrived at the office. He really had no choice.

"Merback of Coin Star wants to report some new ideas of the company to you, Hastings of Netflix wants to discuss the next arrangements with you and invite you to watch the clip of the first TV show that has been produced, Zuckerberg of Facebook hopes to report the progress of product development to you in person as soon as possible, and he also wants Mike and Sandberg to report to you about the progress of Twitter together..."

"Page of Google, Bezos of Amazon, the new board of directors of PayPal... They all expressed that they hope you can fulfill your shareholder responsibilities more..."

"Feiqi from Marvel called..."

"Okay," Feng Yiping interrupted Wu Qian, "I hope to hear Cummins' report on the recent situation of Wall Street as soon as possible, and I hope to hear the progress report of the M&A team on several ongoing projects."

After all, the emails sent back and forth can only focus on the key points, and he hopes to have more first-hand information.

"Okay, I'll notify them now," Wu Qian said immediately.

This was the itinerary that Feng Yiping had arranged before he came.

"Tell them to come in half an hour, and don't let anyone disturb me in this half hour," he added.

"Okay," Wu Qian didn't ask why.

Because is there any need to ask?

As soon as the boss returned to the park, the person he wanted to see first was of course that person.

"In addition, Madoff has called for the third time today," Wu Qian added before going down.

"Madoff?" Why did this guy call so urgently at this time?

Could it be that he had spent all the money in his hands and could no longer move, so he wanted to take his "investment" back?

In my impression, he should have exploded at least after Wall Street was completely blown up.

"What did he say?"

"He just said that he hopes to talk to you as soon as possible,"

Talk?

Feng Yiping sighed, so it is not easy to win some reputation, "Please connect now,"

"Okay, right away,"

…………

Hearing the secretary say that Feng Yiping's phone was on the line, Madoff, a big man in the eyes of many people - and once a real big man, couldn't help but get excited.

He put down his Davidoff cigar, took a sip of his favorite Diet Coke, sat on his custom-made boss chair worth nearly $10,000, picked up the phone on his desk worth more than $110,000, and pressed the call button, "Feng, my friend, I heard that you finally returned to the United States?"

The title of "friend" made Feng Yiping feel a little disgusted. Who wants to be a friend of a super liar like you?

"Yes, I just arrived at noon," the old guy is well-informed.

Yes, don't scammers usually have to be well-informed?

"Sorry Madoff, what's your question? I'm busy now," Feng Yiping really couldn't be polite to this old man.

Originally, he and Madoff would not have any intersection, and he would not interfere with Madoff's "great cause", but who made the old man set his sights on him in Palm Beach that time?

"Haha, I know, I know," Madoff, who always said such things to others in an impatient manner, was very happy to hear Feng Yiping's words that were not polite at all, "Feng, I just want to congratulate you,"

"Congratulations to me?"

Where does the joy come from?

Could it be that you also know that I had lunch at the same table with the mother of two children for the first time at noon?

"When I celebrated my birthday in Mexico at the end of April, oh, by the way, I have to thank your office for the gift,"

Feng Yiping had no idea that Madoff's birthday was at the end of April, but for such an "important" client as him, his assistants should have prepared a gift for their birthdays.

"You're welcome," Feng Yiping thought to himself, although I don't know when your birthday is, and I don't know how luxurious your birthday will be this time, but I know very well that if you are super long-lived, then your next 150 birthdays will all be spent in prison.

He looked at the computer and it turned out that the old man was exactly 70 years old this year.

70, you are already 70 years old, can't you think about doing something good?

For a moment, he felt that the person opposite was quite pitiful.

At the age of 70, he still had to rely on cheating people to make a living. To be honest, it was really miserable.

In any case, living to old age and cheating until old age, such a life is definitely not happy.

But thinking about the amount of fraud of more than 50 billion US dollars and those who were cheated of nothing by him, the sympathy in Feng Yiping's heart immediately disappeared without a trace.

Such people are not only not pitiful, but also quite hateful.

"It was at that time that I heard about your feat from a friend," Madoff said.

At the end of April, my feat?

"I want to say, Feng, you did a great job! There should be more people like you to teach those guys in the investment bank a lesson,"

Oh, it turned out that he knew that he asked the investment bank to cash in CDS.

It's not surprising. On the surface, Madoff's current company, Madoff Investment Securities, is still a well-known securities brokerage company on Wall Street.

"Madoff, although we have an agreement, you will not interfere with or ask about my investment plan,"

Feng Yiping's words were also very familiar to Madoff, because he often said the same thing to his clients.

"But since you mentioned this, I want to tell you that we had already started that investment in 2006 before I met you,"

It's not good for Madoff to think that his 5 billion was also involved in this investment.

Although he felt that ordinary people would not be so naive, only charging you a little fee and bringing you several times the return soon.

But Madoff was not an ordinary person. He was a man who not only cheated tens of billions from wealthy people, but also from well-known companies. He might really think that there would be such a good thing.

"I know, I know," Madoff said, he was not surprised at all.

He knew that if it was an investment with such a return, then, at least in advance, Feng Yiping would definitely discuss the commission issue with him seriously, and emphasize the relevant risks.

"I just congratulate you,"

It was just congratulations?

"Oh, thank you,"

"Then Feng, I won't bother you," Madoff simply hung up the phone.

Feng Yiping was really confused. He made several phone calls just for this? And he sounded quite happy. What was he up to?

…………

In New York, in an office that cost more than $1 million to renovate, Madoff was very relaxed and picked up his cigar again.

He personally confirmed that he had indeed easily earned tens of billions of dollars from the five major investment banks on Wall Street!

Haha, his original decision was indeed right!

As a big liar, what Madoff and Feng Yiping said was naturally not all true. He did not hear the news at his birthday party at the end of April, but heard the news from his peers the day before yesterday.

In any case, a layman like Feng Yiping, who had always disliked them, easily earned nearly $20 billion from them with the two Google guys. Naturally, the bigwigs of the investment bank kept such news secret.

Because no matter how you look at it, it is a very embarrassing thing.

It was not easy for Madoff to hear such news.

Although he knew that the funds he gave to Feng Yiping would not have such a multiple return, Madoff felt that since Feng Yiping could easily get a multiple return, then his own funds, if not much, at least a thirty-point return would not be less.

Then, excluding the expenses, this 5 billion investment can at least bring more than 1 billion US dollars in profits.

1 billion US dollars!

Especially in a year like this, how can Madoff, who has been losing money on his investments, not be happy?

He used to boast to people, "I make money in rising markets and falling markets," and he never thought that his boasting would be realized in this way.

He now regrets that he did not cherish the opportunity enough. If he had known this, he should have raised at least 10 billion US dollars.

No, as long as Feng Yiping needs it, what about more?

If it is 10 billion US dollars, then there will be at least more than 2 billion US dollars in return!

Madoff's thoughts spread along with the smoke rings...
