Chapter 328 Twin Towers
Compared with the immature Asian stock market, the North American stock market is very mature. If a listed company has poor performance, financial fraud, or illegal boss, the stock price will collapse, such as Enron, and Arthur Andersen accounting firm collapsed at the same time; Another example is Fannie and Freddie, another is WorldCom, if a listed company has good performance or good expectations, it will be like the early stage of Big Blue, such as Wal-Mart, then Microsoft, then Apple, etc.
Why are North American stock markets maturing?Because some people want to short-sell and accumulate funds, maybe if you sell, you will actually sell. News here spreads very fast, and it is very sensitive to insider trading. If you make money, you may be reported and investigated, and you will be punished. Check it out.
Unless all the investment banks on Wall Street are targeting you, for a company with good performance or good expectations, the stock price will rise. There will be fluctuations in the middle, but it will rise in the long term, which is expected.
Recently, the Swiss efg bank was collecting City Bank's stocks on the stock market. It really couldn't receive the stocks, so it had no choice but to give up. It only had 3.82% of the stocks in hand. After Li Bu got the news, he had no choice. Any more stock would raise the stock price. , the acquisition cost at this time was higher than that of Prince Walid. The other party received 2.07% of the shares for 4.9 million, with an average of less than 15 US dollars per share, while the efg acquisition price was close to 16 US dollars per share.
There was no other way to think of it. Peter and Smith of Pacific Rim Group received a call from Li Bu, asking them to go to those small shareholders or board members to acquire the stocks in their hands.
Recently, Jennifer was still immersed in the happiness of the Queen of Technology and couldn't extricate herself. She was tired of being with Li Bu every day. On this day, Li Bu looked a little unhappy. The purchase of City Bank stock was blocked, so he could only look at Pacific Rim Group.
"Lee, what happened? You seem unhappy."
Hearing Jennifer's concern, he was actually not unhappy inside, but very unhappy. It was a step too late!However, he would not show it, but said softly: "It's nothing, it's just that men are depressed for a few days every month."
The smile on Jennifer's face never faded. She was still very happy and said, "I thought you were very happy. Our computer company's performance is great, even better than Apple's."
Li Bu also showed a sunny smile and said, "Yes, this is really something worth being happy about."
Everyone's joys and sorrows are different. On the other side of Los Angeles, in New York, on the east coast, a group of people are worried about money.
In New York, on the board of directors of City Bank (Citigroup), they have now received definite news that they will no longer invest in Kuwait and cannot raise funds there, so the choice is very narrow and there is only one goal.
"Now we can only choose the little-known Prince Walid, who will become our shareholder."
"If we don't find investors, we will be finished and divided by those people."
At this time someone said: "I don't think so, someone might be able to help us."
The director's words aroused the interest of others and they all turned their attention to him. Seeing everyone's attention, he announced two names. When they heard these two names, their eyes widened...
"I know that Swiss EFG Bank has a branch here. They want to invest in us, which we understand. As for Pacific Rim Group, they are willing to invest in us. What is their purpose?"
"Based on their current situation, I think it's better to get in touch. There's only one week left and this year will be over."
Christmas is coming in a few days, and Li Bu received good news, not about City Bank, but about the Twin Towers. They are willing to sell the Twin Towers, and the price has been negotiated. It only costs 18 billion U.S. dollars. No. Including other buildings, there are only two twin towers with a height of 110 floors.
Hearing this price, Li Bu felt that it was a bit expensive. Although it is a landmark building in New York, it is opposite to Rockefeller Center. The latter was bought by Mitsubishi in October last year and spent US$8.5 million to buy the Rockefeller Group. 51% of the shares.
Rockefeller Center is a complex of 19 commercial buildings with connected commercial buildings on the ground floor. It was designated as a "National Historic Landmark" in 1987. The largest privately owned building complex in the world is not only artistic, but also historical. Its significance is far-reaching. More than the building itself.
But who does Li Bu like?
After Li Bu agreed, the agreement was quickly completed. A team of eighteen lawyers had completed the review of the contract in the early stage and fully met the requirements. Before Christmas, the two parties signed the transfer agreement.
On the day the transfer agreement was signed, US$18 billion entered the account of the original holder. If not to say that Pacific Rim Group is extremely wealthy, as soon as this news was announced, questions arose as to where the money came from. ?
In order to quell these doubts, Pacific Rim held a press conference and invited representatives of the IRS to testify for them.
Host: "Thank you all for coming to Pacific Rim's financial briefing. Now I would like to introduce the participating representatives. This is the company's financial director, Mr. Fang Pingshun, and this is the representative of the IRS New York branch."
The flash lights below the venue flickered for a while. After they stopped, the host continued: "Now I would like to invite the financial director, Mr. Fang, to introduce it now."
Fang Pingshun took a step forward and said: "Thank you to the investors for their concern for our Pacific Rim Group. Some time ago, we accepted a commission, and with the permission of the commissioning party, we also invested our own funds in the operation. It’s just that this project is very risky. We are a responsible company. In order to avoid risks, we can only operate with our own funds. Of course, we made the right bet this time, and in order to expand our influence and have a better For a comfortable office environment and for investment, we bought the Twin Towers after discussion by the board of directors. As for the rumors from the outside, they are just rumors."
After finishing speaking, he held up a piece of information and continued: "These are the financial statements for the past three months. They have been audited by the IRS and the Big Four accounting firms. You can ask the IRS representative to express his opinion."
The representative stepped forward and said to the media: "After our one-month audit, this report is true, reliable, and detailed."
People below are talking about how lucky the Pacific Rim is. The only chance to make so much money this year is the oil surge.
