Scene 218 Rockefeller(1/2)
Nick completed his brain replenishment, but he didn't know whether he hoped that his hair would grow or not.
If he can grow out, he can naturally restore his past appearance, but if he can't grow out, he can make a lot of money.
Although this money may not be what he earned in the end, even if Doug made it, he would be happy.
Because he is Doug's employee, wouldn't Doug make money because of this and wouldn't he make some expressions for his "sacrifice"?
Of course it will!
Because Nick is sure, Doug is not a stingy boss.
It's not based on what Doug said, but on what Doug did.
The few months I spent at Clayden Investment Bank were the happiest months since Nick worked.
First of all, here he is no longer the kind of person who faces his boss, and he has to swallow his anger and be a turtle.
Because, here his boss is Doug.
Doug doesn't have many requirements for him, and he doesn't even have to go to work for a few days a day. He just makes some requirements for him, such as how much money he has to borrow every month.
Of course, it doesn't mean that the money is free to lend to anyone.
After the loan is released, there will be a special person responsible for the review.
If any problems are found during the investment loan process, they will be reported, and the Supervision Department will punish them accordingly based on the reporting situation.
Although there are many restrictions, it is still very pleasant to lend your own money to others.
Any month you complete the task, you will get a bonus.
Now Nick has been working for almost half a year, and the money he has made now is enough to buy a piece of land and build a house in New Haven.
However, he had never thought of buying a house here before.
Because for him, although New Haven is good, it finally started a small place.
One day, he will return to the financial center of the United States and Wall Street in New York.
Because, whether he leaves here, works in other financial institutions, or continues to expand here.
He has the chance to return to Wall Street.
Now, he is more convinced of the second year.
Just keep working here, and one day he will return to Wall Street with Clayden Investment Bank.
Because Doug has enough strength to fight against those Wall Street financiers.
The result of the victory against is not to eliminate Wall Street, but to integrate into it.
Because only by integrating into this financial heart can American finance be really manipulated.
Of course, this is just his wishful thinking.
It's unknown what Doug thought.
However, he made a choice and said, "Boss! I want to continue working at Clayden Investment Bank!"
His affirmative voice was very sonorous.
Doug looked at Ludan's serious expression. Although he wanted to laugh a little, he walked over and patted his shoulder and said, "Come on!"
"Um!"
Nick responded heavily.
After Nick left, Doug sat back.
Clayden Investment Bank not only invests in a certain "idea", but also invests in a certain "entity".
Of course, this entity is not limited to entities in the ordinary sense.
It not only includes a house, buying it and waiting for it to appreciate, but also means something that has never appeared before.
Recently, Doug has been focusing on machinery.
He wanted to find a powered machine that could operate efficiently.
However, he has not found the ideal internal combustion engine.
He just saw a variety of external combustion engines.
Perhaps, most people may not be familiar with external combustion engines.
In fact, a steam engine is an external combustion engine.
In addition, there are many external combustion engines.
However, what Doug is looking for is not an external combustion engine.
Because, although the external combustion engine is simple to implement, the thermal efficiency is really not high, and at the same time it is too large in size.
Doug hopes that he can create a transportation tool that changes the world within ten years, namely, cars.
Compared with trains, although from the perspective of long-term use, the same transportation volume is definitely the cost of trains.
However, there is one very good thing about cars, which is that they are more flexible, both in terms of the price of the car itself and in the early transportation price.
The most important thing is that the United States has abundant oil resources.
Although Doug doesn't like finding oil deposits, which is almost like gambling, to make money.
But he likes oil and the adjuncts of oil.
The oil industry is an important part of modern industry.
Even the coal tar needed by Tom and Doug Chemical now can find replaceable ingredients in the oil ingredients.
Even the petrochemical products that can be replaced have lower costs and better results than coal chemicals.
The oil industry is undoubtedly the mainstream of the future.
What Doug thought was that if he could directly find internal combustion engines at Clayden Investment Bank and invest in them, would he be able to occupy the large market of automobiles?
However, after searching for a long time, he has not found it yet.
He had already found that the direction he was looking for was wrong.
First of all, the development of internal combustion engines has developed with the development of the petroleum industry.
At the beginning, there was only one product of chemical industry that was valuable.
It is anthracene, the lamp oil of the oil lamp.
Because, even if the substances are separated, they have no place to be used.
For capitalists, of course, this kind of waste is not to be jealous.
Therefore, experiment on the characteristics of other products of petroleum to see if we can find places where they can be applied.
For example, the heaviest part, that is, asphalt, can be used on buildings and roads, while other lighter parts have also found more applications.
Including but not limited to candles, fertilizers, plastics, gasoline, diesel, etc.
Doug wanted to find the internal combustion engine without the large number of gasoline entering the market and no one attempted to discover its application scenarios.
It's tantamount to looking for Rockets in the primitive era.
Therefore, the correct way to do it should be to invest in a refinery.
Crude oil is extracted through refineries, various substances are separated, and then application scenarios are found for these substances one by one.
And how did the initial refineries make a profit?
Very simple!
Kerosene is enough!
Learn from history, extract the best refined kerosene, and promote smoke-free safety oil lamps.
Use low prices and excellent quality to eliminate the luxury of candles.
Of course, at the same time, kerosene, which is truly produced in coal, is also competitive with petroleum and kerosene.
However, coal kerosene has higher cost and its quality is worse than oil.
As long as you don’t make too big mistakes, you will never lose in the confrontation of kerosene.
Doug pressed the bell on the table. Although it looked very attractive outside the door, Doug's secretary who couldn't remember his name walked in.
"Go and check if anyone seeking investment wants to open an oil refinery."
"yes."
The secretary and the butt left.
At the same time, there happened to be a young man who heard that Clayden Investment Banker was stupid and had a lot of money, so he came to seek investment.
This young man named Rockefeller was in his early twenties, but compared to other peers, he was already very successful.
Although his father was a liar, after graduating from a specialized school at the age of 20, he worked in the company for two years, and later started a business with his friend Clark and became the boss.
He has escaped poverty and hunger and has been very successful in the eyes of others.
