Manhattan, Midtown Hilton Hotel, golden banquet hall.

somewhere in the banquet hall,

A white man, about forty years old, holding a wine glass in his hand, moved his lips towards the corner where D. Ted Lerner was.

"Look, look over there. The Wolf of Wall Street is coming."

The speaker was surrounded by four people, all of whom were over forty years old.

Two of them are old white men with gray hair.

"Ha~ This is the first time I heard that he attended such a banquet."

One of them, a white man with gray hair and about sixty years old, smiled and said:

"What does he see in Barron Hilton? Or is he interested in Hilton?"

"That's not clear. Barron Hilton controls Hilton very well, and it is difficult for outsiders to break through the numerous defenses he has set up. Even if someone is interested in Hilton, it will be difficult to succeed."

"That's true. By the way, William, why don't you go over and have a chat with him? The opportunity is rare. It will not be easy to see him again next time."

William Rhodes, whose name was called, was also an old white man with gray hair.

The two people speaking were the two oldest among the five people.

William Rhodes shook his head slightly, nodded slightly, and looked at the person who said this:

"John, if you think I should go over and talk to him, then I will go. If not, I won't go."

Hearing what William Rhodes said, John Reed frowned slightly:

"William, if you say this, it will make people think that I am a dictator at Citi.

But I'm not, and if I were a dictator, I wouldn't resign next month."

"Of course that's not what I meant.

But at least until next month, dear John, you are the CEO of Citigroup.

I am just a senior executive, and it will be more effective for you to contact him than for me." William Rhodes said neither yin nor yang.

John Reed was a little angry. He looked at the other three colleagues who were watching the show.

John Reed said angrily: "Don't tell me, you don't want to go over and have a chat with him."

"Hahaha~ Of course not, we actually want to go over and get in touch with him."

The first person to speak was the middle-aged white man who was the youngest among the five people present and said with a smile:

"It's just that this gentleman has a very weird temper. We think it's best to wait and see."

"Blinken? What do you think?"

Bryn Bulley, whose name was called by the youngest middle-aged white man, is the CFO of Lehman Brothers investment bank.

Bryn Buley chuckled and shook his head, responding to Charlie Scharf, the youngest person present:

"That's how I feel. Others on Wall Street feel that way. But people outside of Wall Street don't feel that way."

"Look, Lerner and his daughter are having so much fun dancing with the wolf."

Hearing what Bryn Buley said, all the Wall Street giants looked in that direction.

They also really saw Mr. D. Ted Lerner, a very famous man in New York, and his daughter.

Over there, I had a great time chatting with the person that everyone here focused on.

At this moment,

Charlie Scharf, the youngest who spoke first, suddenly said:

"I've decided. I'm going to go over and have a chat with Lerner. He owes Merrill Lynch a credit loan that is due next month. I want to know when he will repay it."

After finishing speaking, the youngest guy among Wall Street CEOs.

Then he shook the red wine glass and walked over there.

Bryn Buley looked at his back and couldn't help but cursed in a low voice——

"Shit!! Who doesn't know that there is no bank in New York that is not owed by D. Ted Lerner!"

Then the CFO of Lehman Brothers also picked up a glass of red wine and walked over without saying anything.

Among the remaining three people,

Citi’s John Reed and William Rhodes,

Together they looked at the one among the five, Sally Winston, the president of PNC Financial Services Group, who had been silent.

Sally Winston shrugged at the two Citibank bosses and followed suit without saying a word.

When the three people walked away a little, William Rhodes couldn't help but said:

"A little Dixie has had a few successes. Does he need to take it so seriously?"

"Although he is little Dixie, he is indeed worthy of attention. Come on, William, let's go there too." John Reed shook his head and said.

John Reed, who was about to step down as president of Citigroup, also followed suit.

One of the most promising executives to take over, Citigroup's William Rhodes, could only keep up.

the other side.

"...Hello, I am D. Ikana Lerner."

"I'm Abel Smith, good evening, Miss Lerner."

"..."

Abel was introducing each other to D. Ted Lerner's daughter.

Unbeknownst to him, he had been noticed by several Wall Street tycoons who happened to be attending today's banquet.

At this time, he looked at Lerner's daughter in front of him.

This Miss Ikana is about the same age as Paris Hilton over there.

Under 20 years old, over 18 years old.

Compared to the slightly more refined Paris, the D. Ikana Lerner in front of me looks more dignified.

The figure is obviously much better than that of Ikana, and the headlights are already very impressive at such a young age.

d. Ikana Lerner can be said to be very famous in New York’s socialite circle.

This person is a typical "other people's child". Even for the children of the rich, he is also a role model for many wealthy parents when educating their children.

It is said that at the age of thirteen, she entered MIT Business School based on her own abilities.

At the age of fifteen, he left MIT and went to the Wharton School of Business for graduate school.

I am sixteen years old and go out to work.

Everyone thought she would join her father's company.

Who would have thought that D. Ikana Lerner would go to the modeling circle, join the American Elite Model Company, and become a model.

At that time, her behavior was somewhat unconventional in the New York socialite circle and was criticized by many people.

Many people said in a weird way - "As expected of D. Ted Lerner's daughter!"

But D. Ikana Lerner only stayed in the modeling circle for a year. She came out at the age of seventeen and founded her own clothing brand.

In just two years, D. Ikana Lerner's clothing brand "Miss Ikana" has opened more than 50 chain stores across the United States.

Not long ago, Goldman Sachs valued her at US$1.1 billion. D. Ikana Lerner, who is less than 20 years old, has become one of the youngest richest people with a net worth of more than one billion US dollars.

She started her own business and had experience from childhood.

It immediately became an example that parents in the wealthy circles of New York and even the entire American wealthy circle like to use when educating their children.

A typical American rich version of "other people's children".

Although like her father, she relies on her father to have her current career.

But you must know that D. Ikana Lerner is only nineteen years old now.

Also nineteen years old, Paris Hilton will only stay with her doting grandfather when she turns nineteen.

Other wealthy ladies and young masters were still driving sports cars, clubbing, or engaging in other entertainment activities.

d. Ikana Lerner is nineteen years old, but she is already the founder and chairman of a US$1.1 billion clothing brand company.

The difference is quite clear.

The key point is that her appearance and figure are not bad at all. She is really a breath of fresh air among the rich and wealthy in New York.

The opposite of her father.

Her father is a turbulent figure in New York's wealthy circles.

Considering her appearance and figure, Abel was willing to chat with him more.

But there are people who want to chat with him more, such as——

A cheerful-sounding voice intervened.

"Oh, dear Ted, I'm so glad to see you!"
