Chapter 2760: Treat Everyone Equally
What Feng Yiping said is certainly not a generous gift for Goldman Sachs.
You ask the people at Goldman Sachs not to think about how to design new models and how to make money, but also ask them to take off their expensive suits, put on plaid shirts and sweatshirts, and write code like the programmers in Silicon Valley?
That would have been unrealistic.
The plans he mentioned can only be realized in Silicon Valley. Therefore, he plans to hand over those plans to United Fund or a new company. What is important is that they must be completed together with the original shareholders of United Fund.
In the United States, it is always right to bring Google and Apple together when it comes to these products in the financial field.
"Feng, this is really disappointing," Lauder complained half-truthfully, "I think everyone who watched the interview will think that that is the plan you prepared for us."
"I'm obviously talking about the entire financial industry," Feng Yiping looked at Lauder, "Just tell me, what do you want?"
"It's not that I want anything, I just think that Goldman Sachs can provide a lot of help with these plans, right? You don't have much experience in this area,"
Feng Yiping immediately said, "If this is the problem, then you don't have to worry at all. At this time, we still can't recruit people who have experience working on Wall Street and can write programs?"
Lauder was once again very helpless.
As long as Feng Yiping raises the flag at this time and waves it, the former Wall Street elites will probably rush over in a panic.
Just look at the team brought by John from United Fund this time. Among them are three bankers he can name.
Think about the executives of failed banks, think about the presidents and directors of Bear Stearns and Lehman... As long as they want to, what kind of people can't be recruited?
He could only settle for the next best thing, "Well, I only have one request. When your projects need financing, Goldman Sachs must be in the first round and have the largest share."
Feng Yiping thought for a moment, "Although we may not be short of money, but... I agree,"
How could the three of them be short of money if they joined forces? However, considering some of these plans, I originally hoped to develop customers like Goldman Sachs and let them invest.
Before Lord could say anything, Feng Yiping's cell phone rang again. He took a look at the caller ID and said, "Look, because I'm so cooperative, trouble is coming!"
The caller was Peter Grauer, Bloomberg's chairman, the man who ran Bloomberg when Bloomberg was mayor of New York City.
Lauder looked like I couldn't help you, and walked away with a smile, "I won't disturb you,"
"Fon," Peter said straight to the point, "I heard that you were interviewed by Maria Bartiromo?"
"You are the second largest shareholder of Bloomberg. When you accept relevant interviews after the crisis worsens, shouldn't you consider our own company first?"
"Peter, Goldman Sachs hopes that more people will know about this news," Feng Yiping explained.
In terms of coverage, Bartiromo's "Wall Street Report" is of course larger. Those who use Bloomberg terminals and watch the Bloomberg Financial Channel may be more professional and have a higher level, but they are only a minority after all.
The other side laughed, "I knew Feng that you would be very thoughtful, so you are also ready to accept our interview, right?"
"You must have prepared more new content, right?"
At other times, Feng Yiping could refuse, but not long after he became the second largest shareholder of Bloomberg, it was not easy for him to refuse such a request.
Goldman Sachs can be so cooperative, but Bloomberg can’t?
"I'm still at Goldman Sachs..."
"Okay, I'll send someone to pick you up right away, oh no, I'll pick you up myself,"

The Bloomberg Tower at the intersection of Lexington Avenue and 59th Street, also known as the Bloomberg Tower by more people, was visited by Feng Yiping for the first time. Before he had time to walk around, he was surrounded by Peter Grauer and Daniel Doctoroff, who served as New York deputy mayor under Bloomberg for six years, two of Bloomberg's right-hand men, and some employees who came to see Feng Yiping gathered in the interview room. .
The person who got the opportunity to interview Feng Yiping was a male reporter from the TV station.
While debugging the equipment on site, Peter Grauer suddenly pulled Feng Yiping aside. "Feng," he looked at the busy people at the site seriously and the male reporter who was still reading the outline, "Are you too? Do you think we should also cultivate a few outstanding female reporters?”
Feng Yiping: "..."
You are so serious, just to tell me such a thing?
Daniel Doctoroff, who had just joined Bloomberg and was supposed to be responsible for specific affairs, immediately agreed, "I also think it is necessary,"
"CNBC is one of our main rivals, not only do they have Maria Bartiromo, but they also have Erin Burnett,"
The full name of CNBC is a consumer news and business channel. It is a global financial cable TV satellite news station owned by NBCUniversal Group in the United States. It is also a recognized leader in global financial media. Its in-depth analysis and real-time reporting have won many awards. Trusted by the global business community.
And Erin Burnett is another beautiful host who Feng Yiping told Lauder that he thought was more beautiful. She was once an analyst at Goldman Sachs.
"Although in terms of finance, sometimes male hosts make people feel more professional..." As soon as Daniel Ktorov spoke, Feng Yiping and Peter immediately shook their heads, "It's hard to say that,"
This is pure discrimination against women, and this is political correctness that must not be violated in the United States.
Doctoroff immediately changed his mind, "Although male hosts also have advantages, I still tend to think that hosts like Bartiromo and Erin Burnett are more popular,"
“Whether it’s early in the morning or late at night, who wouldn’t want to see them reporting the news they care about?”
Feng Yiping shook his head, what is the truth?
"I said, it's better to think about how to make a good website,"
Looking at Feng Yiping's back, Ktorov wondered to himself, is he going to train a beautiful Asian host?
But they looked at each other almost at the same time, because they were very interested in making Bloomberg's website bigger. However, the mayor of New York has not been too active.
The main reason is that the information on the website is, of course, free, but the Bloomberg terminal is charged, which means that the information on the terminal is also charged.
If the website is well run, it may naturally affect those users who charge fees.
They came to a conclusion almost at the same time, maybe let Feng convince Bloomberg?
It is unclear whether Feng Yiping is willing to solve this problem for the two of them, but he obviously does not favor one over the other. Soon after the interview started, he said something hard that he did not say in the interview with Bartiromo, "I think it is relevant. Institutions should consider a rescue plan at this time, and a comprehensive rescue plan,"
The reporter immediately became excited, "An overall rescue plan? Feng, you mean, a rescue for the entire financial industry?"
"Of course, from the perspective of Wall Street, we all know that no company has not faced huge difficulties, and these difficulties will once again spread to the entire system through their various cooperation, so now the entire financial system is currently something is wrong,"
"It won't make any sense to just bail out one or a few of them,"
"Thank you Feng for your wonderful analysis..."
"No," Feng Yiping shook his head, "This is not my personal opinion. This is actually the consensus of many people, and I believe that relevant agencies should already be preparing such a plan at this time."
Peter Grauer and Daniel Doctoroff looked at each other again and responded to Feng Yiping's opinion. At least tonight, Bloomberg Financial Channel can compete with CNBC.

In Silicon Valley, Amanda chased her little friend Candy into the living room and found her mother watching TV. She looked at the TV and immediately pointed at it and shouted, "Dad!"
"Yes, it's your father," Huang Jingping pulled her daughter over, "Look, is that aunt pretty?"
Amanda shook her head repeatedly, "Not as beautiful as my mother,"
"Haha," Huang Jingping kissed her daughter hard on the face.
Almost at the same time, in Los Gatos, Ma Ling also pretended to be casual and asked Vincent a similar question. Vincent immediately turned his head away from the TV, "Mom is more beautiful, much more beautiful."
Ma Ling looked at her son and saw that his son's expression was as unquestionable as when he answered the teacher's question: "One plus one equals time."
"Mom, when will dad come back?"
"Soon," Ma Ling hugged her son happily and laughed.
In San Francisco, Mayer came out of the bathroom with her mouth covered. She happened to see Feng Yiping on the TV and asked Bartiromo with a smile, "Have you seen "The Love of the Nation"?"
She snorted coldly and turned off the TV.
At this time, Feng Yiping also received a call from Page, "Feng, your new plans won't leave us behind, right?"
