Chapter 318: A naïve evaluation that can't be escaped
On March 18, 91, Harker Investment Bank announced that it had reached a strategic cooperation with Lombard Company, Lombard will provide Harker Bank with a special corporate e-mail address, and provide special Internet information maintenance services, on the same day, the stock of Lombard Company continued to grow by eight percentage points, and the current stock price has broken through the $40 mark, an increase of more than 100% compared with a week ago, and continues to lead the stock market and become the most valuable investment company.
On March 21, the registered users of Lombard e-mail officially surpassed Yahoo to become the largest number of e-mail users in the United States, and the number of visits to its comprehensive website has long surpassed that of Yahoo, the new chairman of Lombard Wood, said that the Yahoo era has become a thing of the past, and Lombard is the only existence of the Internet in the future.
Spurred on by this big news, Lombardy's stock soared again, rising more than ten percent on the day, and Lombardy once again proved that it lived up to its name as the most valuable company to invest in.
On March 23, Lombard Tech announced that it would be building a classified site, which it plans to launch in three days.
At the press conference, Lombard Chairman Wood told reporters that his current strategy is not to take revenge on Yahoo before, but that he feels that on the current Internet, there is a lack of a similar comprehensive website, and Lombardy was born for this, and their purpose is to make it easier and more convenient for all users to experience everything on the Internet in Lombardy.
In addition to this, Wood said that Lombard plans to conduct research on search engines in the future, as well as provide consulting and online community services.
On Monday, March 25, driven by the new project of the Lombard company at the end of last week, the stock of the Lombard company continued to lead the stock market, and the opening stock price broke through the $50 mark.
......
In order to cope with the crazy expansion of Lombard, these Internet companies chose to merge into the new Yahoo company, and the new Yahoo company earned more than $100 million in investment on the first day of listing.
This news was originally very exciting, but because Lombard is the current leader of the Internet, the establishment of the new Yahoo company and the absorption of money are only mentioned in the later sub-edition.
"Haha! Zhou Ming, you street boy didn't expect that in front of my Lombards, no matter how much you do, it will be in vain, and your Yahoo will always be trampled under my feet!"
Tang An laughed excitedly in his office, while Wood sat in his boss's chair, looking at the news about Yahoo reported in the newspaper, he also smiled disdainfully: "It can be seen that they want to struggle again, but they have chosen the wrong direction and the wrong opponent, maybe the average company will indeed be afraid of such a consortium, but in front of me, no matter how you unite, you will still be as immature as a child." ”
Tang An immediately patted his ass and said, "That's inevitable, Mr. Wood, you are a genius cultivated by the Automobile Kingdom, how can they be your opponents?"
Wood waved his hand and said, "Okay Tang'an, how is your people going on there? Now we can see that our opponent has been killed by our attack to the point of losing his armor, I think we can already change the venue, what do you say?"
"Of course. Tang An then said with some embarrassment, "But this time may have to wait a little longer, because they have not yet reached an agreement on the redistribution of wealth, but I think it will not take more than a week at most, and they will be able to negotiate." ”
Wood said with disdain: "A group of greedy fellows, if it weren't for the important bargaining chips in their hands that can split the Tang Bank, I would even refuse their cooperation; ”
Tang An didn't know what to say about this, after all, the faces of those people in the family discussing the future distribution were also very disgusting to him, obviously they didn't do anything at all, but they all wanted to dominate the Tang Bank, and everyone wanted to let their family control more wealth, and also hoped that the company they controlled could take this opportunity to merge with some other companies in order to achieve the purpose of expanding again.
After thinking for a while, Wood finally said to Tang An: "But as the initiator, I think many things should be started as soon as possible, after all, if it is only the expansion of the Lombard Company, the opponents who are like babies I face cannot give me any sense of accomplishment at all, so I need a bigger battlefield, and I also need a little more advanced, at least an opponent who can create a little trouble for me, so that people can feel happy." ”
In the end, Wood changed his words: "Otherwise, Mr. Tang An, I am afraid that you will need to control the situation yourself." ”
Tang An trembled unconsciously, and hurriedly nodded: "Please rest assured, Mr. Wood, I will definitely convince them as soon as possible, even if it is to give up some of my own interests!"
......
At the same time, in the small conference room of the headquarters building of Tang Bank, Tang Jingsheng and Tang Huiyin were facing questions from several family elders.
"What happened to the Tang family? I'm also old and haven't been involved in the family's affairs for a long time, but this time I can't help but come out to see the situation. In fact, as far as I am concerned, I have no opinion on letting Tang Ran, a little female doll, come to power, that is under the premise of ensuring the stability of the Tang family, how can this be the case now, I need an explanation!"
On the other side, an old man with white hair was questioning Tang Jingsheng, and at the same time threw out a newspaper on the conference table, Tang Jingsheng knew what was written on it just by looking at it.
It was a Wall Street analysis newspaper that published some so-called inside information, and this time the newspaper pointed out that while the Lombard Company was soaring, the China Bank on the other side was in a very bad situation, and the Lombard Company was actually controlled by a major shareholder of the Tang Bank.
So why can Lombardy create one miracle after another, while the China Bank is constantly regressing, which makes us ask: What is wrong with the China Bank? It seems that since the video of the China Bank was exposed, one of the shareholders was expelled, which also makes people wonder whether the new president of the China Bank was sent by the enemy to completely destroy the entire China Bank.
In other words, there is a huge problem with the Tangren Bank itself, so it is directly exposed to the stock market, so that the stock price continues to fall, if it continues like this, the Tangren Bank may inevitably fall into an unprecedented crisis, and even splitting is not impossible.
Seeing this newspaper, Tang Jingsheng said with a wry smile: "I have read this newspaper, in fact, he is not the first to say this, as early as yesterday, the San Francisco News has already published a similar comment." ”
"Then are you still indifferent?" the old man frowned and asked, "San Francisco News is controlled by the Huaxia people, and he would never dare to publish such news without the approval of the insiders of the Tang family!"
The old man paused for a moment when he said this, and then said: "In addition, I have also received some news that some people within the family are in contact with each other privately to discuss some matters to redistribute the family wealth, is this the case? If so, isn't this splitting the family? In the face of such behavior, what are you doing as the head of the ancestral clan association? Do you watch the play? If so, what qualifications do you have to be the head of the clan, get out of here as soon as possible!"
Faced with the old man's words, Tang Jingsheng stubbornly called uncle, and the old man waved his hand in annoyance: "Don't call me uncle!"
Tang Jingsheng was stunned for a moment but still insisted: "Uncle, I actually know all this news......
The old man glared, and once again interrupted Tang Jingsheng's words: "You know, since you know, why didn't you think of a way earlier? You were also very smart at the beginning, why are you so confused now? If you really can't help it, you should at least consult with us, can you see what it looks like until now? Do you really want to watch the family break up like this? What are your intentions?"
Tang Jingsheng did not answer the old man's questioning this time, because the door of the conference room was suddenly opened, Zhou Ming and Tang Ran walked in, Zhou Ming said to the old man: "Hello uncle, in fact, Uncle Tang is not to blame for this matter, because it was all my idea, and I asked Uncle Tang not to interfere in these matters for the time being, in order to purge the entire Tang family at one time." ”
Listening to Zhou Ming's answer, the old man was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't believe it, he knew Zhou Ming, and he was surprised because he knew it, because if Tang Ran could still understand, after all, the patriarch at that time, but what was the situation of Zhou Ming, who didn't matter at all? Why do you want to decide the affairs of the Tang family? This is too funny, the old man didn't believe it at all, but then he was sure after asking Tang Jingsheng.
The old man then said: "I didn't expect it, Jingsheng, I thought you were just poor in ability, but I didn't expect you to be so confused, how can you let an outsider be in charge of major matters related to the future of the family? What do you think of this Tang family?"
This time, it was still Zhou Ming who replied to him: "Uncle, I think you still misunderstood, because Uncle Tang loves the family very much, and it is precisely because he loves him very much that he will listen to my advice, at least this is the best way for now." ”
The old man smiled, he looked at Zhou Ming with disdain and said: "Little doll, I didn't say that you just forget it, why did you jump out by yourself? The best way to do it at present, what do you think you know? Just send Tang Ran to the position of patriarch and feel that he is invincible in the world, can he not take anyone or anything in his eyes? Then I just want to say that you are really too naïve!"
Zhou Ming said-for-tat: "Uncle, I think your words are very reasonable, but I can return them all to you, I admit that you are very qualified to talk about me, but when you insult me without knowing anything, you feel that your judgment is correct, and other people's ideas are worthless, even if you take anything in your eyes? Isn't this also called naïve?"
The old man's eyes narrowed into a very dangerous color, he looked at Zhou Ming and said: "I didn't expect that you are very good at talking with this mouth, but no matter how much you can say it, it can't compare to the facts, at least now Tang An and Wood are pressing step by step, from Lombard as the source, showing their abilities to others, and then pulling others in, constantly increasing their strength to prepare for the final split, on the contrary, what did you do?"
"I didn't do anything!" Zhou Ming replied honestly, "Because my idea is to wait for all the half-hearted guys within the Tang family to jump out, and then catch them all!"
The old man said disdainfully: "Your idea is very good, but you still can't escape a childish evaluation, because such a method is only useful when you are in an absolute advantage, but you ...... I'm sorry I don't see any hope, I just see that as Tang An and Wood and the forces they are connected grow stronger, you will be more and more marginalized until finally there is a great upheaval and the Tang family is facing a split. ”
Zhou Ming shook his head helplessly: "There's no way, it seems that if I don't want to make some achievements, it will be difficult to be convincing." ”
"If it was before they really came to power, I could still look forward to it, but now, I'm afraid I'll be able to prepare for the rest of the family. The old man said.
"Then I can only say sorry to you, uncle, your wish will be in vain. Zhou Ming said.
