The Rebirth of the Financial Hegemon

Bang bang bang…..

heartbeat.

Robert Baden-Powell felt his heart beating rapidly.

Uncontrolled beating.

One hundred million dollars.

And 100 million yuan are completely different concepts.

The significance of 100 million US dollars made Robert unable to believe what he heard.

For ordinary people.

One dollar and eight dollars don't have much feeling, and one hundred dollars and eight hundred don't have much feeling.

But when it comes to 1,000 yuan and 8,000 yuan, or 10,000 yuan and 80,000 yuan, there will be a very serious gap.

This gap comes from a person's understanding of money.

Everyone is at a different level and has a different concept of money.

Just like ordinary people can realize the gap between 10,000 and 80,000, Robert also understands the gap between 100 million yuan and 100 million US dollars.

How come this native has so much money?

Is he lying to me?

No, it doesn't seem like he is lying to me. Lying to me has no meaning other than making him lose face.

"Gudong..."

Involuntarily, Robert swallowed.

One hundred million US dollars gave him a huge impact.

Even if he was from an ancient British aristocracy, he would still be frightened by this amount of money.

Nobility is also divided into levels.

If he was really a super noble, Robert would not be sent to China, a bitter and cold place that he thought was a dream he had never dreamed of.

In Luo Pote's career, the largest amount of money he has handled was just over 40 million US dollars.

"Mr. Zhao, Are you sure?"

Under the stress, Robert could not even speak Chinese.

Fortunately, Zhao Jiangchuan's English is also first-rate.

"Yes, Carrot Head. I'm sure."

The mixed words of Chinese and English made Robert sure of one thing.

Carrot head.

He must have called me that on purpose.

Robert was sure this time that Zhao Jiangchuan called him a carrot head on purpose.

But this time, Robert wasn't angry.

The dignity of nobility?

Go to hell, one hundred million dollars, no need for dignity.

The profits that $100 million can bring are enough to buy any dignity.

As a banker, Robert knew all too well how much profit he could make with $100 million.

But then, Robert felt a pain in his heart.

In his excitement just now, he forgot one thing.

Zhao Jiangchuan approached him and asked him to transfer 100 million US dollars abroad.

But Standard Chartered in Shanghai is just an insignificant branch of Standard Chartered Bank in Asia.

He doesn't have enough authority to split $100 million.

If you want to transfer 100 million US dollars overseas, you must get the nod from the Asia headquarters of Standard Chartered in Hong Kong.

Robert felt as if he had swallowed a dead child in his mouth.

It's not because he was slapped in the face with Zhao Jiangchuan's $100 million. With so much money, even being slapped in the face is glorious.

Robert was worried that if such a large amount of money passed through Standard Chartered Hong Kong, part of the benefits that should belong to him would have to be set aside.

But there was nothing Robert could do.

Standard Chartered Hong Kong is the Asia headquarters, and the person in charge, George King, is much higher than him in terms of authority and status.

The Robert family is just a down-and-out noble, and now he only has the honor of a knight. Compared to George King of Standard Chartered in Hong Kong, his status is simply insignificant.

George King was made a viscount by the queen, and it was a hereditary one.

"Mr. Zhao, please forgive me for my previous ignorance and presumption. Honorary Knight Robert Baden-Powell apologizes to you."

Robert stood up, knelt down on one knee and made a noble apology to Zhao Jiangchuan.

This startled Fang Zhongyuan who was standing aside.

Why the hell does Waiguo Ren have this weird habit of kneeling down all of a sudden when he says he’s going to kneel down?

Didn't it mean that Wai Guoren's knees wouldn't bend?

Zhao Jiangchuan raised his eyebrows.

Robert's salute showed him that the guy he called Carrot Head was still a noble.

This kind of apology ceremony of kneeling down on one knee is obviously specially practiced. Only those nobles who have inherited it know such complicated etiquette.

However, Robert had been so miserable and only managed to get a low-class honorary knight. No wonder he was thrown into a place like China to work as a coolie.

Zhao Jiangchuan sat carelessly and accepted Robert's bow.

He could see Robert's aristocratic courtesy, which meant he had seen a real aristocrat.

Not to mention a lowly honorary knight.

Even people with the title of baron, viscount or even earl, I don't know how many people have paid this kind of salute to Zhao Jiangchuan.

It's just that most of those barons and viscounts are women. They are ingenious and replace the frontal one-knee salute like Carrot Head with a reverse kneeling salute.

Zhao Jiangchuan is not an immeasurable person, and he can't argue with a little honorary knight.

In Robert Baden-Powell's apology ceremony, Zhao Jiangchuan said calmly.

"I forgive your ignorance and presumption."

It wasn't until he received Zhao Jiangchuan's forgiveness that Robert bowed and stood up.

Fang Zhongyuan was already dumbfounded.

Does the legendary overlord's energy really exist?

Otherwise, why didn't the boss do anything, and the crooked nut was kneeling here and there?

The world of Waiguoren is really difficult to understand.

Fortunately, Robert can't read minds, otherwise he would definitely want to beat Fang Zhongyuan to death.

This etiquette, in Robert's education, is just a respectful apology ceremony.

Only by gaining their respect can you be qualified to allow them to perform such a grand ceremony.

One hundred million dollars.

The status it represents is enough to be respected by an honorary knight like Robert.

For Robert, there is no shame in saluting. If you know you are wrong but don't admit it, that is the real stupidity.

But Robert was also surprised that Zhao Jiangchuan was obviously from China, but he knew how to deal with this kind of etiquette.

That sentence of forgiveness is not something that normal Chinese people can understand.

Robert didn't think much of it.

Talking about business is the most important thing.

Since he has been forgiven by Zhao Jiangchuan, it is equivalent to gaining Zhao Jiangchuan's approval.

One hundred million dollars.

Thinking of the profits he could get afterwards, Robert just wanted to hug Zhao Jiangchuan's boots and kiss them.

Praise God.

Just thought of having to contact George King of Standard Chartered in Hong Kong.

Robert felt miserable again.

"Mr. Zhao, I don't have the authority to handle the 100 million U.S. dollars right now. Can you wait a few days and I'll notify the general manager of the Asia region to come and talk to you personally."

Zhao Jiangchuan did not speak, but looked straight at Robert.

This made Robert lower his head in shame.

The meaning in those eyes was obviously saying something.

Carrot head, are you kidding me?

"Okay, I'll give you two days. If you can't do it, I might choose Bank of East Asia or Citigroup. I wish you good luck!"

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for wasting your precious time. Robert is deeply sorry. I will notify Mr. George King as soon as possible to come and meet with you."

Zhao Jiangchuan felt helpless that the trip was in vain.

If it were placed in future generations, it would be so troublesome to use it.

But now, a mere US$100 million puts banks like Standard Chartered in such a difficult position.

It seems that we need to establish a fund transfer channel as soon as possible.
