MTL - Treasure Hunt America-Chapter 1209 visionary founder

"No problem, I don't have anything important to do lately anyway. If it's trivial, I'll help if I can."

Jin Muchen kept holding his breath, intending to find Chris. Furrell and Martin. The Furiel brothers took revenge. There was no action before. On the one hand, he was afraid of the two brothers' family background, and on the other hand, it was because he really couldn't find them.

Now since David. Hirst invited himself to come over to help, so the sky was falling and there was a tall man blocking it. If there would be any political resistance when killing the Furrel brothers, then David would naturally be there. Hearst was in front of him, so Jin Muchen didn't think much about it at all, and readily agreed.

Although I came to San Francisco to accompany my parents to travel, but in the past two days, because I have already discussed acquisitions and recruitment with Durarick, my father has been accompanying them for the past two days. With Wang Xueming, I am busy with things over there. As for travel, my mother and Candace are two women who go shopping and eat delicious food every day.

Anyway, there was still some time here, so it wasn't too much trouble to come and help, so Jin Muchen agreed on the spot.

Seeing Jin Muchen, he agreed, David. Hearst is also very happy. With this tiger general, when some of his plans are implemented in the future, those rebellious guys will not be afraid that there will be no one who can't control them.

"By the way, David, the Friel brothers, why did they dare to set up such a locomotive R&D and manufacturing company with Ashley's son? Their family has invested in the rail transportation industry in the United States since they launched this business. ?"

For the Freer family, Jin Muchen has always felt very mysterious, because since the founder of their family donated the museum to Washington, there has been no news about their family in the market.

In the eyes of ordinary people, this family must have been in decline, but Jin Muchen did not believe that their family would be so simple. At least the protection of the death-free gold medal provided by the American judicial circle to their family shows that this family must not only be the same as that year. Their ancestors donated the art museum to the country as simple as that.

And this is also the main reason why he has never dared to act hastily on the Freer brothers before. Now, he hopes to solve this problem in David. Hearst got the answer here. After all, he is also a person in this circle, so he must know about some invisible rich families in the United States.

"Haha, that is of course. Of course, the Furrell family will not really decline as you think. Although their ancestor sold his shares in the Detroit motorcycle company, Retired to the background. But it is not just in the art world. The reason why he quit the locomotive company was because he was ill and incurable. On the other hand, it was also because he did not Family, no wife or children, but in his later years, he found several of his illegitimate children, and some of his nephews also found him, at this time he decided to return to the arena. It was only because of his health and age Because of this, he was no longer allowed to go out and start a business again, so he chose to invest the remaining ten million or so dollars in his hand at that time into Union Pacific."

When David said this, he deliberately paused, and then sighed again: "That old **** is really insightful. I have to say that he was able to achieve such a great achievement back then, it was not a fluke."

Judging from his appearance, he seemed to applaud the founder of the Freer family back then, but Jin Muchen didn't feel anything about the Freer's investment, but he was also quite shocked.

In the 1900s, 10 million US dollars, I relied on, it was too rich, although it was incomparable with Rockefeller, the first billionaire in the United States, but considering inflation and other factors, the Tens of millions of dollars, how could it be equivalent to a billion dollars now?

As for David. Hearst is about to sigh, but Jin Muchen has no idea. What is this for?

"Haha, you kid, you don't even know about Union Pacific? Hey, well, this company is indeed very low-key. Now in the United States, there are really not many companies that know about this company. After all, they know it very well. How to hide yourself in a low-key manner, then let me introduce you to this company. This Union Pacific company controls a total of three subsidiaries, the most famous one is called Pacific Union Railroad, and two are called x company..."

Before David's words were finished, Jin Muchen's head was rumbling, because the news was so shocking, no wonder David would say that the ancestor of the Freer family had a vision, such an investment, in today's opinion, , is too correct.

x Jin Muchen doesn't know much about what these two companies do, but the Pacific Union Railway Company, Jin Muchen knows, because this is a large freight company that monopolizes the entire North American railway transportation, from Canada to Canada. To Mexico, plus the United States in the middle, the company itself has a rail network of more than 36,000 miles, and each year on these rail networks, the company has a monopoly on the transportation of coal, various chemicals, and dangerous goods on the North American continent. goods, as well as oil, natural gas and other goods.

This is when Jin Muchen was in college, he accidentally went to the wrong classroom, and heard an example from a professor in a business class.

In fact, as early as the 1920s and 1930s, the United States had the longest and largest railway transportation network in the world. However, after World War II, the air transportation industry became the preferred mainstream transportation carrier for passengers and freight in the United States.

Since then, the railway transportation industry has gradually declined in the United States, especially passengers, less and less will choose to travel by train, and most of them choose to travel by faster plane.

However, the US rail transportation industry did not end because of this. They began a large-scale transformation into the freight industry by virtue of their price advantage over the aviation industry, and occupied a huge market in terms of freight transportation.

And the market size is getting bigger and bigger, especially after the 9/11 air raid shortly after entering the new century, the railway transportation industry has begun to grow rapidly in the United States. Many companies have found that the original use of railway transportation can actually save more money. More costs, but also more safety, so the railway transportation industry began to radiate the second spring in the United States.

The market size has quickly grown from $35 billion at the beginning of the 21st century to more than $50 billion now, and there is a trend of further rapid growth.

These are all things Jin Muchen heard from the teacher in the economics class that he attended by accident, so now when David mentions the Pacific Union Railroad, he feels like thunder.

"Currently, the output value of the rail transportation industry in the United States was 58 billion US dollars as of last year, nearly 60 billion US dollars, and of this plate, at least 35 billion was earned by the Pacific Union Railway Company. , they are unique no.1 in this industry. And you don't think that the other two companies under the Union Pacific company are eating dry rice, that company, but now the largest trucking company in the United States, the other one Fenix ​​is ​​composed of four technology companies, mainly engaged in the development of communications, microwave system manufacturing, transportation management software, and e-commerce application software. And they did well.”

Listen to David. After such an introduction by Hearst, Jin Muchen finally understood, David before. Why did Hearst say that the founder of the Freer family was powerful and insightful? It was true that the old man dared to spend 10 million dollars on the Union Pacific company in one breath.

He invested 10 million US dollars back then, and now it is estimated that he has paid him back ten times, or a hundred times the scale.

"And the Freer family, in this Union Pacific company, is now a major shareholder. The old man of their family invested a lot of money in this company, but the development of this company has also experienced many twists and turns~www.novelbuddy .com~ There was a period of low ebb. At that time, many strategic investors were introduced, so the equity in the hands of the original shareholders must have been diluted a lot, but even so, I heard that in the board of directors of Union Pacific , it seems that there are still three seats for the executive director of the Furrell family."

David. When Hearst said this, Jin Muchen understood. It seems that the Forrell family's status in the Union Pacific Company is not low.

According to David, there are still people in their family who can serve as joint directors in Union Pacific, which means that their family's shares in this company are not the largest, but they are not too small. , their family's wealth, no matter what, they have to have three or five billion.

What's so special, these gangsters are so low-key, if it wasn't for David telling him today, he really didn't know that there was such a big family behind the Furiel brothers.

Fortunately, before, I didn't rashly attack these two brothers, otherwise, it would be a hornet's nest.

After all, in such a big family, if something happened to their two most proud children of the younger generation, the people in the family would definitely investigate it to the end. . . . (To be continued.)
