1977: The beginning of the blind date with the daughter of the king

Chapter 529 An invitation to the future president!
"Are you interested in the Skull and Bones Society?"

Looking at Li Changhe's expression, little Bush asked Li Changhe curiously.

Li Changhe smiled and nodded: "I am actually curious about the relationship between the Skull and Bones Society, the Freemasons, and the Illuminati?"

In later generations, these are the “masterminds” of the world!

When Little Bush heard what Li Changhe said, he smiled and shook his head: "Vic, have you also read the novel "The Illuminati"?"

In 1975, American writers Robert Scheer and Robert Anton Wilson jointly published a literary work called "The Illuminati".

This work actually consists of three parts, which are about the bright and good power elite system and satirizes the American elite power system at that time. It became very popular.

"I'm just curious."

Li Changhe answered ambiguously.

And little Bush smiled and nodded: "Well, it's nothing, not as exaggerated as you think."

"That novel is probably just a collection of rumors and gossips from the past, compiled into a story."

When little Bush explained it to Li Changhe, Li Changhe understood. The general meaning was equivalent to the fact that in later generations, some online authors integrated domestic mythological stories into the novel system of "Honghuang".

Therefore, young new readers often substitute Honghuang into the existing mythology system, and there will be more and more such believers.

"In fact, whether it's the Illuminati, the Freemasons, or the Skull and Bones Society, they are essentially secret groups that rebelled against Catholicism after Martin Luther's religious movement."

"The real Illuminati was destroyed long ago, but because they were rebels, they liked to make up rumors to attack the ruling elites at the time or to confuse the Catholic Church, so many stories were spread."

"Let's talk about the Skull and Bones Society again. The Skull and Bones Society in the United States is actually a mysterious organization that was founded by its original founder after he heard the propaganda of a German."

"But here, everyone believes in Protestantism, so you can't say you're against faith. So the original founder made it an internal elite organization. In fact, I think it's equivalent to a small group that inherits power."

"Because as the territory of the United States expanded, more and more people and more and more ethnic groups began to appear in this country, including Italians, Mexicans, Hispanics, and so on."

“And the power elites who were here first formed secret societies in order to keep their power.”

"The requirements for joining the Skull and Bones Society are actually very simple. You need to be of British or German descent and be born in the East. In addition, you need an internal recommendation. That's enough."

"Of course, there are still some other conditions on the surface, which is for screening."

"For example, I got in because my grandfather and my father were both members of the Skull and Bones Society. So even though I wasn't the best at Yale, I still got in."

"As for what's inside, I can't tell you, because after we went in, we all swore an oath to the Lord."

"But what I want to say is that although it is mysterious, it is not as powerful as you think. There are only a few people in Yale each year, and only fifteen can be selected into the Skull and Bones Society. With the increasing number of foreign populations in the United States, how can it possibly control them all?"

Little Bush seemed a little disdainful when he spoke.

Li Changhe smiled and nodded. In fact, this thing was similar to the Five Surnames and Seven Families in the Tang Dynasty and the Donglin Party in the Ming Dynasty. They were all elite monopolies.

However, all elite monopolies will actually face challenges from external forces and rising forces from the lower classes.

"But overall, it should be good for you. At least it's a platform that can help you!"

Little Bush curled his lips: "Vic, you think too simply."

"Do you think that once you join a fraternity, you will really become brothers? It's not that simple. The prerequisite for both parties to become helpers is that you are equal to each other. If you are not equal, then it is not help, but a joke."

"That group of people foolishly formulated all kinds of systems. I have no interest in them anyway. I joined purely because of the recommendation of two generations of members in my family. I don't think they treat me as a brother."

Little Bush laughed sarcastically, and Li Changhe seemed to understand something.

Obviously, little Bush is the kind of poor student from a rich family who has no academic ability. He then used his family resources to enter the elite student power class. The result is likely to be despised and ridiculed.

After all, the people inside were not inferior to him in terms of status, wealth, or knowledge, and some even far surpassed him. In this case, it was normal for them to look down on him.

In the circle of student elites, wealth and status are often very similar, so the IQ contempt chain is usually the most intuitive one.

"In fact, there are many such mysterious organizations in the United States. Those with religious overtones are often supporters of the theory of bloodline. Religion and bloodline are the source of their recognition."

"Just like there is a group of idle guys in the election committee right now who specialize in studying the bloodline of the US president. They want to do everything they can to prove that the bloodline of the US president is related to the British royal family."

"Doesn't that sound ridiculous?"

After saying that, little Bush was the first to burst into laughter.

Li Changhe also smiled, he actually knew about this.

The reason he knew this was that even when the black president came to power in later generations, those people would do everything they could to link him to the British royal family.

Although his father is black, his mother is white, and is a blood relative of the British royal family in no way related.

"In fact, in my opinion, this so-called mysterious organization is not as powerful as the Rockefeller family, because Rockefeller itself is the core of a powerful group."

"Vic, you have a close relationship with Mr. David. This is actually better than groups like the Skull and Bones Society. Of course, it would be even better if you could join the Trilateral Commission."

"These are the groups that can truly influence world trends. In comparison, the so-called congressmen, wealthy people, governors, etc. in the Skull and Bones Society are not as powerful as one of your fingers."

Little Bush knows all about these things, even the Trilateral Commission.

Li Changhe looked at him at this time, then smiled and said: "Walker, I think you might as well give up your oil business and cooperate with me?"

"Ok?"

"Cooperate with you?"

Hearing Li Changhe's words, little Bush looked at him in surprise.

Although his father asked him to contact Li Changhe tonight, it was with the intention of making friends with him, or to help him expand his network.

But the invitation from the other party is a bit abrupt, isn’t it?

For his father's sake?

"Walker, I think I have discovered why Mr. Herbert is attracted to you. Perhaps he is attracted to your unruly nature."

"Your personality is really suitable for socializing!"

"I have set up an investment institution in California. Currently, I am only collecting funds from some wealthy people in California and leading foreign investment."

"I want to expand this investment institution. I hope that in the future my investment institution's clients will not only be limited to California, but also include New York and top clients in the entire United States."

"But you know, I can't do it alone."

Li Changhe spoke seriously to little Bush at this time.

"But I don't understand investing, Vic!"

After listening to this, little Bush shook his head.

"You don't need to understand investment, I do, Walker. I think all you need to do is make friends with the top people and let them give us their money to invest." "What we need to do is to work together to expand our scale in the United States. I think this is much more interesting than running an oil company."

Li Changhe said seriously.

After listening to this, little Bush sat there, thinking about something.

From what Li Changhe said, his job seemed to be very simple, which was to help Li Changhe make friends with the rich and powerful, and then let them hand over their money to his investment company?

"Vic, what if we lose money doing this?"

At this time, little Bush asked Li Changhe cautiously.

"Generally speaking, we don't provide guaranteed returns to investors, but now that we are a start-up, I am willing to provide guaranteed returns to investors."

"When you join, you can take a look at our contract. At that time, you can provide the other party with a contract with guaranteed returns or a contract without guaranteed returns according to the situation. It's up to you to decide."

"Walker, I can give you the position of vice president of the investment institution, plus a basic annual salary of $500,000. As for other income, it will be determined based on your performance at that time."

"How's it going? Are you interested?"

Li Changhe decisively extended an olive branch to Little Bush.

Li Changhe bet on Bush not only because he will become the president of the United States in the future, but more importantly, he really needs a spokesperson in the United States to help him attract funds.

Li Changhe knows that there will be many opportunities in the future, but he cannot invest all of them with his own money, and he cannot eat such a big cake.

The best way is to take advantage of these opportunities, establish a large wealth organization, and then use it to swallow up the wealth and add a thick protective shell to yourself.

Just like the famous Vanguard and BlackRock in the future!
Of course, there are still differences here. For example, Vanguard and BlackRock are public funds, while Li Changhe runs a venture capital institution.

But these things are essentially the same. When you take control of those people's money, you actually also have some of their social relationships in disguise.

However, Li Changhe himself did not want to do this openly thing. Firstly, he did not have the time and energy, and he still had a lot of things to do.

Secondly, he has an Asian face after all, and there is an inherent barrier between him and the white elites.

In comparison, little Bush had it much easier. He was a genuine Anglo-Saxon mixed-race, from a prominent family, the son of the vice president and future president, and a member of the Yale Skull and Bones Society.

This buff alone is enough to ensure the expansion of his funding sources for the next ten years.

In this way, by the 1990s, with Li Changhe's own power and the network of relationships he had assembled, he could challenge even the Jewish consortium without any scruples!
"Vic, I can't promise you right now. I need to go back and think about it seriously."

Little Bush was still sober enough and did not agree immediately. He obviously wanted to go back and discuss it with his father.

Li Changhe didn't care, he just smiled and nodded: "Of course!"

"Hey, Vic!"

"So you are here!"

At this moment, someone next to him greeted Li Changhe again.

As soon as Li Changhe heard the voice, he knew it was Lu Wasserman's voice.

"Hello, Mr. Wasserman."

Li Changhe greeted the other party softly.

"I've been looking for you for a long time. Let's go. Ronald is waiting for you."

Lu Wasserman spoke seriously to Li Changhe at this moment, and he paid almost no attention to the small bush beside him.

"Okay, then Mr. Walker, I'll be leaving first. You can seriously consider my proposal."

Li Changhe said to Little Bush with a smile, then stood up and left with Lu Wasserman.

Looking at the other person leaving, little Bush narrowed his eyes slightly.

The fact that he can attend today's party has already surpassed 99.99 percent of his peers in the United States.

But even so, he was just an insignificant minion at this banquet. Apart from his identity as the son of the future vice president, he had no added value.

But Victor was different. He walked in with David Rockefeller. He was a guest invited by the president and an important person that his agent was looking for everywhere.

Thinking of this, Mr. Bush sighed silently in his heart.

On the 30th of that year, at the presidential banquet, I stood like a minion!
Perhaps, I should really plan my future seriously?
On the other side, Lu Wasserman brought Li Changhe and quickly came to a room in the villa.

Inside the room, the soon-to-be-inaugurated president was already sitting there.

"Vic, I'm sorry for not welcoming you to my party right away. I didn't expect to be so busy tonight!"

As soon as they met, Li Gen gave Li Changhe a warm hug, and then explained to Li Changhe in a half-complaining and half-intimate tone.

"It's okay. I know Mr. President has a lot of things to deal with. I'm honored to be invited to the banquet!"

Li Changhe said with a smile at this time.

"Speaking of which, I have to thank you very much."

"The stock you recommended to me made me a lot of money!"

Li Gen spoke again at this time, saying that his nice attitude towards Li Changhe was also related to the fact that he made a lot of money from Walmart stocks.

After all, this was legitimate income, and it nearly doubled in a short period of time, which made him very happy. After all, he was not a traditional rich man, and he did not make much money when he was an actor.

"Sir, I still suggest you hold it for the long term. I am also buying Walmart shares. If conditions permit, you can increase your investment."

“I think it’s possible for Walmart’s stock to increase fivefold or even tenfold in the future.”

“Of course, this will take some time.”

There were not many people in the room at the moment, so Li Changhe didn't mind saying a few more words.

"Oh, really?"

"In that case, I will indeed continue to invest."

"But Vic, I came to you today because I actually have another thing to talk to you about."

At this time, Li Gen said to Li Changhe in a serious tone.

"You say!"

Li Changhe asked calmly at this time.
