Chapter 809: The Champions League Final Begins

While AI may not be well received, Yahoo's plans haven't caused much controversy. Isn't it just train ticket splitting, route planning, and online ticketing, this kind of thing is easy to understand. Yahoo can learn from PayPal's experience and enter the EU market with Yahoo Pay and these life and mobility services......

First open up the market, expand the scale, and then get profits, Silicon Valley's style of play is simply heretical in the EU, there is no profit, even employees cannot be hired, and the scale of venture capital here is not only many times smaller than Silicon Valley, but also many times smaller than China, yes, the venture capital invested in the entire EU is not as good as the venture capital invested in China.

This is due to the fact that different languages and cultures in different countries are determined by a unified and decentralized market. As a result, if an Internet company succeeds in the U.S. market, it will be able to gain an overwhelming advantage in Europe. It should be easy to understand that there is no country in the EU with a population of more than 100 million, and there are very few countries with a population of more than 50 million, and the conservative population market is the reason why the EU's local Internet companies cannot develop.

Yahoo won't be very competitive in Europe, and the success of the upcoming business is certain, but not to what extent. In these days, he has traveled to Germany, France, Italy and other places, including WeWork to chat with entrepreneurs, just to better understand the entrepreneurial environment here. So much so that there was no time to watch the Liverpool game, and Benitez took over the rest of the game with an injury.

"Simon, the international gold price has fallen sharply!" When the final round of the Premier League ended, Hu Zuniu's call came.

"Oh~~" Zhou Shi saw the inevitable loss of Meibang Securities, and he didn't know what his mood was. If he can be two or three years late, he can not be afraid of any accidents.

"I don't know the specific situation of Meibang, but there are already rumors in the market that Meibang Securities has been liquidated, and I also heard that John Paulson is likely to make a huge profit this time...... "Hu Zuniu, last time I also said that Lu He and Paulson have frequent contacts and close relationships, but I didn't expect this time to ...... Of course, whether it is the truth or not, it is not clear to outsiders.

"Then will they blow up their positions?" Zhou Shi

"We don't know Lu He's position, it's hard to judge!" Hu Zu Niu

"How will Meibang be affected?" Zhou Shi

"I'm afraid the worst-case scenario is that Mr. Lu will be out!" Hu Zuniu

"So the chairman of Meibang Securities will be decided by Da Mo?" Zhou Shi

"It's hard to say, Mr. Lu's attitude is very important!" Hu Zuniu, Lu He, as a self-reliant person, is still very jealous of Zhou Shi. Especially after his disciple Peng Guoyu was swept out of the house by Zhou Shi.

"Do you think we want Meibang Securities or not, how much does it mean to us, and how much price can we pay......" Zhou Shi

"On Wall Street, I'm afraid no one wants us to be the new owner of Meibang, which means a very strong opponent!"

Since the subprime mortgage crisis, the two major funds under Galaxy and Sixiang Zhoushi have risen the fastest-rising financial institutions, such as Hong Kong's Sixiang Fund, which has acquired the asset management department of AIG for more than $500 million, and now has assets under management of $50 billion. Although there are not so many in China, it is developing rapidly, and if Galaxy Capital is included, it may have more than 200 billion US dollars in assets under management, not counting those public and private funds.

"We don't have any hope of bringing Meibang under our umbrella?" Zhou Shi

"Yes, there is little hope. "Hu Zuniu

"Then give him some help!" Zhou Shi, it is difficult to explain what the role of having a securities investment bank on Wall Street that is controlled by his own people will be. Especially in the United States, where finance has a very large impact on society, it has the world's largest securities company, and almost has a bridgehead to impact Wall Street.

Hanging up the phone, Zhou Shi looked at the price of gold was already below $1,400 per ounce, even if the leverage used by Meibang Securities was not large, it should be about to blow up, the financial market is really bloody. Fortunately, even if there was an image of the fall in gold prices, he did not get involved. Until now, through the influence of Yahoo Nut Time, there is really not much interest in earning high-risk income through the financial market. Besides, on the basis of not having such a big market as the subprime mortgage crisis, he does not have the ability to make 10 billion. But a company like Guoke can do it!

The Champions League final came as scheduled, Zhou Shi invited Jack Ma, Robin Lee, Xiao Ma Ge, Lei Jun, Feng Xing, Guo Guangchang and others, and the United States invited Bezos, Zuckerberg, Yang Zhiyuan, Jack Dorsey, Musk and other PayPal gangsters, as well as Larry Ellison's sassy child who showed off his wealth in front of him......

"Are you so confident that Liverpool can win?" said Elon Musk

"No, so I called you over, if UEFA dares to blow the black whistle, I need you to help me vent!" Zhou Shi said bluntly

"You're so cunning!" Musk

"Hehe, I take this as a compliment!" Zhou Shi

This time, the Champions League final was only played at Wembley Stadium in London, between Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund, and in terms of strength, there was a big gap between the two sides. If UEFA hadn't resorted to unconventional tactics, the outcome of this match would have been almost unexpected. Well, I'm a little sorry for Dortmund because football is round and there are a lot of contradictions within Liverpool.

The Internet elite of China and the United States gathered in the UK, and the competition attracted a lot of attention before it even began. Many media outlets wanted to interview, but unfortunately they were not allowed to enter the door, and the impact of the scandal on Murdoch's newspaper surveillance door has not passed, and no one dares to mess around. Entering the stadium, there are finally media reporters who find a chance to get in, no way, the British royal family and rich people are very curious about this group of Internet upstarts, there are not many opportunities for so many people to gather together, it is rare to have this opportunity, and those who have relationships have come in. Then someone invited some people out to chat, and although they entered the stadium two hours early, they didn't stop until the game started. Perhaps in England, it is as common to talk about football as it is to have a relationship in China through a wine table!

Along with these bigwigs, Zhou Shi invited some people in the Chinese football circle, mainly coaches and people who are about to become coaches, such as Sun Jihai and Li Tong......

"Are you interested in Meibang Securities?" Zhou Shi ignored so much and found Guo Buffett Guangchang of Fuxing alone.

"Meibang Securities, that's not Lu He's ......," Guo Guangchang looked at Zhou Shi hesitantly

"Don't think about it, there is a big problem with Meibang Securities, and I don't want to let the Yankees' conspiracy succeed because I don't promise it, so I want to ask you what you think. "Zhou Shi

"What's wrong...... Guo Guangchang immediately became energetic
