Back To 1995: Chapter 925 dog eat dog
Chapter 925 Dog bites dog
Song Yang's expression as if greeting an old friend made Dick Fold and Spector's expressions suddenly become a bit ugly.
If Song Yang had turned his eyebrows coldly at Dick Fuld or even scolded Dick Fuld today, it might be a bit easier for these Wall Street hedge fund companies.
But Song Yang's attitude was almost like Chi Guoguo's humiliation, like facing the Kaizi who came to his door, how could he be willing to show any face, because he was afraid that Kaizi would run away!
People on both sides sat down with each other without saying a word. The Wall Street gang and the people from overseas banks and institutions all put on a sullen face, as if they were facing an enemy.
Song Yang and Kravis looked much more relaxed, while Edison sat on the side, staring at Dick Fold, Spector and the others with a gloomy expression, as if trying to spot something unusual.
"Unfortunately, I'm here again today. A few years ago, I came here for the Double-click company, and today I'm here again for Amazon and other companies!"
Harvey Pete sat in the middle, acting as the referee and host, "I don't think I need to say more, an agreement must be reached today, no matter what the conditions or requirements are, an agreement must be reached today, before the settlement date of this month's options , Nasdaq must return to normal!
This is the meaning of the Federal Securities Commission, and it is also the wish of Capitol Hill and the Office of the General Commander. This matter cannot become a disaster for America. "
Harvey Pete still pulled back, vaguely putting pressure on Dick Fold and others to agree to Song Yang's request.
"Of course we are willing to cooperate with the Federal Securities Commission, but those who manipulate the stock market may not be willing!"
At this time, Spector finally couldn't help but feel yin and yang. Today, he will lose money anyway, and it is definitely impossible to be good. Now that he has lost money, why not let him have a good time? !
Cravis smiled at this time, "If President Specter has any objections, you can leave it alone today, and let the Federal Securities Commission and the Department of Justice investigate this matter before we discuss it!"
As soon as these words came out, the group of people sitting across from them were held back for a while. How could they wait? After the investigation is over, they don’t know that the year of the monkey has passed, and Amazon’s stock price has soared into the sky. Every day , Their costs have all increased several times, and in the end, don't worry about the results of the investigation, their institutions collapsed first.
Dick Fold stared at Kravis, an old cannon. If it was someone else, being stared at by Dick Fold, the top five powerful figures on Wall Street, would probably be too much.
But for Kravis, this trick is useless. When he was Henry Kravis on Wall Street, he Dick Fold was just a nobody who just entered Wall Street, and now he just climbed up. , In terms of status, Paulson, the current godfather of Wall Street, has to stand behind Kravis.
Just with one look, I wanted to hold down Kravis. Kravis wanted to tell him that he was thinking too much...
"We have expressed enough sincerity to be here today, but Amazon's current stock price is impossible for us to accept. This is completely blackmail!"
After a short pause, Dick Fuld finally said, this also represents the attitude of the group of people who came today, it’s okay to admit defeat, but it’s too deceiving to deal with Amazon’s current stock price and market value, it’s a complete scam , Don't let Kaizi complain.
"The loser has no right to speak. Today is not for Bear Stearns Investment Bank, Lehman Investment Bank, UBS Credit, and Charles Schwab Securities to negotiate terms.
You have only one principle, either accept the defeat agreement, or... continue to fight! "
Hearing this, Dick Felderton was annoyed for a while, and looked angrily at the speaker, and saw that Addison was looking at him with contempt.
Dick Fuld laughed angrily, "President Edison, I don't intend to offend you, but I still want to say, I think it's not suitable for you to appear here at this time, and you should go to the hospital to recuperate!"
"噗嗤"
Dick Fold was mocking. After the plane accident, Edison was terrified and hid everywhere, not daring to appear in front of the public. The people sitting opposite Edison suddenly burst into laughter Voice.
Addison narrowed his eyes, looked at Dick Fuld, and responded murderously, "Then I suggest you, Dick Fuld, to buy a personal insurance in advance, and I recommend you to buy the insurance under Deutsche Bank , when the time comes, I can leave a good amount of compensation for your family..."
This is the threat of Chiguoguo, Dick Fold has a cold face, clenched his fists tightly, wishing to give Edison an old punch on that disgusting face, but at this time, standing In the corner, two strong men with big arms and thick waists had already stood behind Edison, and then waited for Edison's order to throw Dick Fold out.
Seeing that in this kind of place, Edison brought bodyguards in, Dick Fold, Spector and others, for a while, they had nothing to do but complain wildly in their hearts.
Seeing that both sides are about to stage a real-life PK, all kinds of threats are starting to be put out. I know, today is a gathering of big names on Wall Street. I don’t know, but I think it’s two gangs fighting. endlessly.
Harvey Pete rubbed his brows. This peacemaker's work is really not done by humans. He looked at Song Yang and saw that Song Yang was watching with gusto. Discuss a few words.
"What do you think, if you write memoirs in the future, how about including today's scene?!"
Hearing Song Yang's words, Greg and Marcus twitched their cheeks. If this scene is released, the aura of Wall Street will probably be shattered. destroyed.
"I can't think of any publishing house that dares to report today's story!"
Greg said with a stern face, this is related to the face of the entire Wall Street. If the world knows that a group of top American elites are actually swearing at the street during negotiations, it will be no worse than seeing old men at the United Nations General Assembly. When the commander threw his leather shoes, the shock was lessened.
"Song!"
Seeing that the quarrel between the two sides was getting more and more fierce, Harvey Pete shouted at Song Yang helplessly.
Harvey Pete's face, Song Yang still has to give it, and there is still something to rely on him in the future.
Coughed, Song Yang said, "President Dick Fuld, President Spector and everyone, everyone is aware of today's scene, and we have no way out!
The war was not provoked by the North American Global Investment Fund, we were even the victims, but now we have to accept and clean up this mess! "
"It's that Surya guy..."
Song Yang waved his hand and interrupted the complaining investment bank, "But everyone has participated in this war. You can decide when to start the war, but when to end the war, it is up to the North American Global Investment Foundation to decide now!"
Dick Fuld, Spector and others were silent for a while. Song Yang's words were indeed correct.
Song Yang asked someone to turn on the projector, and the real-time stock prices of Bruno's concept stocks such as Amazon, eBay, Fortinet, and Sohu appeared on the screen.
"I want to close the position at the current stock price!"
Before anyone could object, Song Yang said directly, "Amazon asked to sell 20% of its shares to the major companies here at a market value of US$2.8 billion or US$58.3 billion!
Ebay sold 25% of its shares with a market value of US$45 billion, and Sohu sold 20% of its shares with a market value of US$10.3 billion...”
Every time Song Yang uttered a word, the entire conference room became more and more chaotic. When Song Yang finished speaking, the entire conference room immediately exploded.
They already understood what Song Yang meant, so they just bought and sold by force. Taking advantage of the soaring stock price and the inflated market value, they directly forced the bull's head to drink water, and took over the shares of Amazon and other companies at high prices to them, so that they, the group of institutions , to be a shareholder of companies such as Amazon.
"This is impossible!"
"Song, such a condition is really too much!"
"We just need to close the position, and Amazon only needs to release 5% of the outstanding shares!"
There was a lot of noise in the conference room. Looking at the group in front of him, whose expressions became ferocious and flushed due to excitement, Song Yang looked normal and his voice was not loud, but it was unquestionable.
"I am the only condition. If someone is unwilling to leave, then they can leave now. The North American Global Investment Foundation can reimburse the air ticket!
However, under the witness of Director Harvey Pete and the Federal Securities Commission, it is not that the North American Global Investment Foundation is unwilling to talk, we have already given the conditions! "
Harvey Pete opened his mouth. He also felt that the conditions were a bit too dark, almost forcing these Wall Street short sellers to take over the offer. The loss was not billions of dollars, but tens of billions of dollars. , It also exceeded the forecast before the Federal Securities Commission came.
However, after a moment of battle between heaven and man, Harvey Pete finally did not speak, and still sat there silently, with an attitude of watching a show.
Seeing the group of people who were excited and clamoring to quit, Song Yang cast his eyes on Dick Fold and Specter, who were also full of anger.
Coughed, Song Yang seemed rather distressed and said, "Of course, the North American Global Investment Foundation doesn't know you well, and we don't intend to!
Therefore, I propose that the North American Global Investment Foundation, KKR Group, Deutsche Bank Investment Bank, Bear Stearns Investment Bank, and Lehman Investment Bank jointly complete this transaction. As for the rest of the companies, they should discuss with Bear Stearns Investment Bank and Lehman Investment Bank. , North American Global Investment Fund will never interfere!
President Dick Fuld, President Spector, what do you think? ! "
The two Spectors, who were still angry just now, were stunned when they heard Song Yang's words, and the entire conference room became completely silent.
They are all human beings. What is the meaning of the conditions proposed by Song Yang? Dick Fuld and Spector, after a little turn of their minds, they understood what it meant, and then their hearts beat.
Song Yang's meaning is very clear, to sell the 20% of Amazon's tradable shares, as well as the tradable shares of other Bruno concept stocks, to Lehman Investment Bank and Bear Stearns Investment Bank.
As for others, UBS Credit, Bank of Spain, Nihon Nomura Bank, etc., if they want to close their positions, they should stop looking for Song Yang, and just look for two "contractors" Lehman and Bear Stearns.
As for Bear Stearns and Lehman Investment Bank, how to argue with UBS Credit, Nomura Bank, etc., Song Yang can't control it, and even, in order to make up for the loss, the two of them will sell this part of the tradable shares at a higher price To Nomura Bank, etc., that's Dick Field's skill!
Song Yang's trick to move the disaster to the east is not very complicated, and it can be seen at a glance. It is to throw the blame on Lehman Investment Bank and Bear Stearns, let them two major investment banks, the gang of Wall Street hedge funds, and Spain Banks, UBS Credit, Nomura Bank, etc. dog eat dog.
But still the same sentence, Wall Street is a profit-seeking place. As long as it is profitable, there is no Wall Street institution that dare not do it!
Hearing Song Yang's proposal, Dick Fuld and Specter looked at each other. They didn't speak, but they already understood.
Song Yang used them as scapegoats to block the gun. How could they not know about Dick Fuld, but what if they knew, now there is one in front of them. If you can make a fortune, it doesn’t matter if your reputation becomes bad. As long as you can keep the positions of president of Lehman Investment Bank and Bear Stearns Investment Bank, they will still be big figures on Wall Street, and they can still get high salaries and huge dividends. What can I do with them?
Under the angry eyes of representatives of UBS Credit, Charles Schwab Securities, Nomura Bank and other institutions, Dick Fuld and Specter staged a face-changing scene.
The two who were glaring at Song Yang just now, now they are smiling when facing Song Yang.
"Although the decision of the board of directors has not yet been made,...we are willing to accept Song's proposal, and accept the equity transfer of Amazon and other companies at the current price!"
Dick Fold and Spector didn't think much about it, for fear that Song Yang would regret it later, so they agreed directly.
As for the dissatisfied eyes on them, Dick Fold and the other two didn't care. If the eyes could stare people to death, Kravis would have died 800 times earlier.
Besides, Dick Fuld and the others also know that even if the two of them do not agree, Song Yang will find UBS Credit, etc., and those companies will definitely agree. What's the matter with Fuld and the others? They don't run a charity shop, they just give warmth to people.
“Amazon’s 20% stake is worth $17.5 billion, eBay’s 25% stake is worth $11.3 billion, Sohu’s 20% stake is worth $2.06 billion…
Bear Stearns and Lehman Investment Bank need to pay a total of 41 billion US dollars! "
Sorry, an update today...
