Ralph is also unhappy with Bush's housing plan. It's fine to use real estate as one of Bush's core industries. But the housing prices are too high and out of control. This is a big problem.
After Ralph started working for Feng Yu, his income increased, and he wants to buy a big house. His father loved the beach at the time, so he wanted to buy his father a house with a view of the sea in Miami, a place with a nice climate.
But his agent told him it is a sea view house. But when he went there, he realized that the house is about 50 kilometers away from the beach. How can this be called a sea view house?!
Under these circumstances, the housing prices keep rising, creating a false sense of prosperity. It's like everyone wants to buy a house. But the supply exceeds the demand.
At the start, it's fine. But when the Federal Reserve raises interest rates, and the housing prices fall, many problems are exposed.
From Ralph's point of view, Bush is not a qualified President. His housing plans are just to deceive the ordinary people to get their votes.
Look at what Bush did when he was on the stage. After the dot-com bubble, the US economy was hit hard. After that incident, the US started to use troops in Afghanistan. But what about the people?
The economy had improved in the past two years, and the real estate market is facing a big problem. How can someone like Bush be the President?
To people like Ralph, the President must make the lives of the people better. The simplest way to do that is to make the US profitable.
If Feng Yu is an American, Ralph would have supported Feng Yu to be the President!
At this moment, Ralph received a call from a bank executive. Ralph frowned after he left Feng Yu's office. He had just left Feng Yu's office, and he had to return to his office.
"Ralph, is there anything else?" What else did Ralph forget to report just now?
"Boss, Mr. Ross from Goldman Sachs asked me to tell you that Bush wants to invite you to dinner."
"Who? Bush? Which Bush? "
"It's the idiot president of the United States!"
Feng Yu laughed in his heart. Seems like Bush is unpopular now. It seemed that every president in the United States in recent years would face all sorts of problems before they left office. Could this be considered a cycle?
In fact, this situation was easy to understand. After all, his term was almost up, so the team behind him naturally wouldn't spare no effort to support him. A lot of negative news also wouldn't be covered up.
Of course, there were other reasons. For example, many of their policies were short-sighted. The effects were good in the short term, but after five or six years, there would be problems that were covered up.
But Feng Yu didn't expect that even Ralph would be so disdainful of George W. Bush. At the beginning, he didn't even address George W. Bush as the President. No wonder Feng Yu didn't know who he was talking about.
Why did Bush want to see him? Could it be some kind of industry that infringed on the fundamental interests of the United States? Many companies have US shareholders. What can Bush do to him?
"Why would he treat me to a meal?" Feng Yu asked.
"He didn't say. He only said that he hoped you would agree and that you could decide the time."
Feng Yu raised his brows. This is interesting. Bush has a lot of work to do, and he had given in to Feng Yu's schedule. This shows that he is very serious about this dinner.
Feng Yu suddenly thought of something. Feng Yu had asked Ralph to expose the real estate finance company's problems. He didn't try to hide any of this because it was the truth.
That's why New Century Finance Company and many similar companies are facing problems. This will affect Bush greatly.
Bush is fine, and Feng Yu is not worried about him. A President who is nearing the end of his term will not dare to do anything drastic.
Feng Yu is Hua Xia's man. Feng Yu is the World's Richest Man, and Bush doesn't dare to offend him. Feng Yu's influence is too big.
Not all Presidents in the US have a good ending.
Feng Yu guessed that Bush wants to talk to him about real estate. But it's a pity that Feng Yu is not interested.
Also, Feng Yu had decided to use this opportunity to stir up the US stock market. How can he be so close to George W. Bush? If Obama wants to meet Feng Yu, Feng Yu might agree. This is an investment in the future.
"Ralph, help me reject him. Tell him that I am very busy and not in a good mood. I don't have time to have dinner with him."
Ralph heard Feng Yu's reply and looks at Feng Yu in shock. No matter what, Bush is the President of the US, and Feng Yu rejected him?!
Feng Yu had rejected the President of the US. This is Feng Yu's style. When he is unhappy, he will not give face to anyone. As a subordinate, Ralph is happy to have such a strong boss.
But at the same time, he is an American and the President of his country. He was rejected by a foreign businessman, and the reason is that he is not free. This makes him feel sad.
With these feelings, he walked out of Feng Yu's office and called his friend back to ask him to pass on his boss's message.
After Bush and his subordinates came up with a plan to deal with this matter, he saw his secretary standing at the door.
"How is it? Is the dinner with Feng Yu ready?"
Even if he cannot have dinner with Feng Yu in the White House, he can still go out for dinner. This way, it will not affect him too much. He wants to meet Feng Yu and talk about some things.
In his opinion, if he took the initiative to invite, even Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, and the others would gladly accept the invitation. It must have been arranged for tonight's dinner. He had even informed his wife and the others in advance and was ready to go at any time.
"Mr. President, I'm sorry to disappoint you. Feng Yu replied that he is very busy and will ask you out for dinner next time. "
Bush's jaw dropped. What did he just hear? Feng Yu rejected him and the President's invitation? How is this possible?!
If he knew that his subordinate had edited out Feng Yu's words, and Feng Yu's original words were even more unacceptable, he might faint from anger!
He realized that he has no way to deal with Feng Yu. The companies Feng Yu invested in are all owned by Americans, and they represent the interests of those people.
Furthermore, many companies are registered in the US, and most of their employees are Americans. If he uses some drastic measures, it will be a huge loss for him!
For the first time, he felt that the President is not that powerful.
