775. The Banquet of Warmth

In August, while the Chinese people were cheering for their country's Olympic athletes, some American people on the other side of the ocean were experiencing suffering from grief to despair.

The subprime mortgage crisis, which had been brewing for a long time, finally broke out completely.

In fact, in Nie Wei's view, the United States' finance can be dragged to this point is already very powerful, you must know that at the beginning of the year, the country's subprime loans have exceeded 1 trillion, accounting for 30% of the country's entire mortgage market, Nie Wei knew this data, he had already seen the vulnerability behind it.

This is already a very abnormal data, subprime mortgages originally represent the lender's own lack of credit, and this kind of loans account for nearly one-third of the entire market, so it also represents how unstable the country's mortgage market is.

It's just that these crises have been masked by the country's falsely prosperous real estate market, and people are more likely to see that the house has multiplied several times after a few years of purchase, and that buying a house only needs to be let go for a year or two, and it is more profitable than working hard for ten years.

Now that the falsehood has been exposed, many lenders and lenders can jump off the rooftop.

Nie Weike doesn't care whether the American people are in dire straits, he has already made a good layout, he is waiting for this opportunity, N more vest companies began to buy those subprime mortgage companies on the verge of bankruptcy of heavy real estate, originally cost 1.5 million US dollars to buy the house, now it only takes less than 300,000 US dollars to get it, and also send a full set of furniture and electrical appliances.

Some subprime mortgage companies, or even entire buildings, are sold off to make up for their company's horrific bad debts.

In addition, the stocks of many listed real estate companies have also plummeted, anyway, this wave of subprime mortgage crisis, Nie Wei can at least take more than $3 billion from the country.

Of course, this is also the limit of Nie Wei's benefits, because he has obtained accurate inside information, and someone in the US Securities Regulatory Commission has proposed to list his three leather bag companies as the objects of concern.

However, this proposal was not passed in the end, after all, the financial crisis that broke out, many financial giants around the world have profited from it, Nie Wei seems to have benefited a lot, but compared with those big conglomerates, it is a little not worth mentioning, the US Securities Regulatory Commission is now anxious, and put all its thoughts on those big conglomerates, as long as Nie Wei is a small fish that is not eaten, they can't care about it at all.

So Nie Wei also accepted it when he saw it.

Of course, not all of the three billion US dollars Nie Wei can get his hands on it, and the costs required to remove the launder, as well as taxes and public relations fees, etc., can finally reach Nie Wei's hands, and the money that can be used in the light is about one billion US dollars.

And this money, Nie Wei has decided to invest in the theater chain to accelerate the development of the theater chain, but this money is not invested in China, but used to acquire AMC Cinema Company on the other side of the ocean.

That's right, Nie Wei used the money he just earned in the United States to buy American companies.

It's not that Nie Wei has any bad taste, but he has already planned this aspect a long time ago.

As the second largest cinema chain in the United States, AMC's life has not been easy in recent years, and the company's rating has been lowered again and again due to consecutive years of deficits, and it looks like this nearly 100-year-old cinema brand is about to collapse and go bankrupt.

And its current value is about eight to one billion, which is also because of the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis, the value of many theaters under AMC has been greatly reduced, otherwise, its value will be even higher, after all, as the second largest theater chain in North America, even if there is a crisis, the camel is still bigger than a horse.

Nie Wei thought about this company, and he also wanted to make a layout in Hollywood in advance.

After all, in this circle, mastering the cinema chain is equivalent to grasping the initiative, and if you want to break into Hollywood, you must at least get the value worthy of the hearts of Hollywood film companies, and this cinema company is the stepping stone for Nie Wei to knock on the door of Hollywood.

AMC is also in dire need of a new boss who can help them bear the huge losses every year.

Negotiations on the deal have begun, and the progress is fast and fast, and if it goes well, Nie Wei will unlock the achievement of 'AMC Boss' before the global release of "League of Assassins".

However, before unlocking the AMC Boss achievement, Nie Wei first received gratitude from Wang Ke.

Wang Ke has been reading the reports in the United States for the past few days, looking at the capitalists who jumped off the rooftop, he felt a chill in his back, he didn't dare to imagine, if it wasn't for Nie Wei's reminder at the beginning, would he be a member of the rooftop at this moment?

You must know that if the original layout has not changed, then at this moment, he should have been forced to a dead end by his customers, and the value he has earned over the years will also lose money.

Like now, not only did he not lose money, but because of the early layout, he made a lot of money behind Nie Wei.

During this time, in addition to being afraid, he was thinking about how to find Nie Wei to express his gratitude.

But how to thank Nie Wei, this is also a difficult thing for Wang Ke, in terms of money, Nie Wei is much more wealthy than him, even if he buys gifts worth millions of yuan, it is estimated that the other party will not care.

This was embarrassing for Wang Ke, who was used to solving problems with money, and finally he begged his wife.

"What's there to worry about here, isn't it just about giving gifts, what do you think Nie Wei likes?"

"How do I know this, wife, you are familiar with him, and you give me ideas. Wang Ke took Liu Tao's hand and begged.

"He likes to drink tea, he also likes calligraphy, and he is also very good at Go, in addition, I heard Shu Chang say that Nie Wei also likes to play online games, you know, he not only likes to play online games, but also planned two games, and now the most popular netizens DNF and LOL are the main planners he did. Liu Tao crooked the building as he spoke, and his words were full of admiration for Nie Wei, which made Wang Ke a little jealous, and his eyebrows were turned into a figure.

As a husband and wife, Liu Tao soon noticed the change in her husband's mood, and quickly held her husband's hand and praised in a sweet and greasy voice: "Of course, my husband is the best, muma!" After the praise, Liu Tao did not forget to give her husband a fragrant kiss and encouragement.

Liu Tao's kiss made Wang Ke smile unconsciously, and his expression instantly brightened.

In the end, Wang Ke decided to give Nie the only customized Go, the chessboard was made of fragrant wood, and the chess pieces were replaced by natural jade, and in addition to the manual fees of the two masters who made the chessboard and the chess pieces, this customized Go cost Wang Ke nearly 700,000 yuan.

However, the value of the gift is secondary, and Wang Ke is more concerned about whether Nie Weixi likes this gift or not.

didn't let Wang Ke worry for long, a day after the gift was sent, Wang Ke received a text message from Nie Wei, thanking him for his kindness, and at the same time inviting him to participate in his and Shuchang's warm house banquet for a while.

"Haha, it's done!" Wang Ke jumped up happily the moment he received the text message.

In particular, Nie Wei invited the couple to participate in the Wenju banquet, which made Wang Ke even more excited, which proved that Nie Wei further accepted him to join the circle.

This is absolutely very important to Wang Ke, you must know that in the investment circle, one is to rely on one's own eyesight, the other is to rely on experience, in addition, it is to find a good backer.

For example, this time, following Nie Wei, the benefits he earned not only made up for the losses caused by the change of strategy before, but also made a lot of net money, which is the benefit of following a big guy.

"Look at your excitement. Liu Tao on the side didn't understand what Wang Ke was excited about, wasn't it just that he was invited to the Wenju banquet, this is not a normal thing?

"You don't understand, you really don't understand. Wang Ke didn't explain to Liu Tao, and he couldn't explain it clearly, he only knew that if he could be accepted by Nie Wei, then his investment industry would definitely usher in the opportunity to take off again in the future.

The subprime mortgage crisis in the United States has basically not affected the domestic housing industry in China, and houses in the four major cities can be sold as expensive as they should, and a week's hesitation may turn into a higher price.

This makes Nie Wei's new home, which covers an area of more than 5,000 square meters, extraordinarily luxurious.

On the day of the Wen Ju banquet, Nie Wei took Shu Chang to the new villa early, almost from the moment she entered the gate, Shu Chang's eyes kept turning, this was also the first time she saw what the renovated new house looked like, including the super large garden of 2,000 square meters.

It took a long time for Shu Chang to finish his home, and then pulled Nie Wei's arm, and the first sentence was full of distress.

"Husband, isn't our family a little too big? ”

Big, this is Shu Chang's first impression of this new home.

Not to mention the big garden, the main building where she and Nie Wei lived alone was three floors, not including the two floors in the basement.

Rather than saying that this is a villa, in a comfortable cognition, it seems more appropriate to call it a small palace.

Shu Chang even felt that if it weren't for Nie Wei's leadership, she would even get lost in her own home.

"Wife, you have to try to get used to it, maybe our family will change to a bigger house in the future. Nie Wei replied with a smile, this is not a fake, this villa is really small in Nie Wei's opinion, which of those world-class rich people does not occupy an area of thousands of tons.

Nie Wei is definitely a very low-key member of the rich.

Just when Shu Chang was still shocked by Nie Wei's words, the first guest of Wen Juyan's banquet also arrived.

Cheng Kun walked into the villa with a surprised expression, looking left and right along the way, his eyes were full of curiosity and envy.

"Nie Wei, you new cow. After meeting, Cheng Kun gave a thumbs up and praised for the first time, and after praising it, Cheng Kun couldn't help but ask Xiang Nie Wei: "Is there a villa for sale near here, I also want to buy one, but it should be smaller, I can't afford it." ”

After Cheng Kun saw Nie Wei's villa, he suddenly wanted to buy a villa.

"You better discuss it with your sister-in-law before we talk. Nie Wei said with a smile, Cheng Kun's status in the family, Nie Wei is very clear.

As soon as Nie Wei said this, Cheng Kun really didn't mention a word about wanting to buy a villa, and he didn't know whether he had extinguished his thoughts, or if he really wanted to go home and discuss with his daughter-in-law.

However, with the money Cheng Kun has earned over the years, it is not a problem to buy a smaller villa in this area.

After Cheng Kun, the people who came were Liu Tao and Wang Ke and his wife, and soon Liu Tao took Shu Chang to visit the villa, but Wang Ke did not follow, but stayed and chatted with Nie Wei while helping to greet the guests behind.

However, as more and more guests arrived, Wang Ke suddenly felt a little strange, he didn't expect that Nie Wei invited all the friends in the entertainment industry today, but as for the people in the investment circle, he didn't see a single one.

However, he thought about it again, and felt that Nie Wei's invitation was also reasonable, after all, they were not in the same circle, and it was inevitable that they would be embarrassed to get together.

is like his current self, obviously he knows all these stars in front of him, and many of them have even attended his wedding, but it is very embarrassing to chat, and the topic only revolves around his wife, which is also the only intersection between him and these stars.

Most of the people who came to the scene today are Huayi stars, such as Cheng Kun, Huang Xiaoming, Lin Shishi, Li Binbin, Fan Binbin, Jiang Xin, etc., of course, there are also friends like Liu Tao who do not belong to Huayi, but have cooperated and formed good friendships.

It can be said that these thirty or forty people who came to the scene are Nie Wei's closest network resources in the entertainment industry, and these people have been more or less taken care of by Nie Wei.

After Nie Wei and Shu Chang led everyone to visit the villa, everyone came to the courtyard with bursts of amazement.

Everyone got together in twos and threes, and there were people like Huang Xiaoming who couldn't stay idle, and they had already gone to the barbecue master to steal food while stealing from the master.

"It's really a pity for Liu Feiren, I almost didn't cry when I saw him limp off the field with an injury. ”

"Who's to say no, it would be nice to win the championship on your own doorstep. ”

"I couldn't ask for more, I think it's good to do my best. ”

Nie Wei and these men talked about most of the topics of the just-ended Olympic Games, such as Liu Feiren's regrets, the perfect curtain call of the diving queen Jingjing, etc., but on the girls' side, the topic still revolves around this villa.

"Shu Chang, I envy you so much, I found such a good husband, this is completely a small palace for you. Jiang Xin said enviously.

Her family environment is ordinary, and when she brought her parents to Kyoto to work hard, her biggest wish was to buy a big house so that the whole family could live in.

Since then, she has had a soft spot for big houses.

"The house is so big that I'm a little uncomfortable. Shu Chang said distressedly, of course, the faint smugness between her eyebrows obviously revealed that she was enjoying the present.

After all, as a woman, she now wants to have a career, a good husband and a good husband, except for one child, she feels that her life is simply complete.

Just when she thought of this, Liu Tao on the side happened to say: "What's the big deal, when you have a child, you won't dislike this house is big, it's a big deal, you will have two more." ”

Liu Tao meant to be joking, but he didn't know it, so he happened to say it in Shu Chang's heart.
