Chapter 288: The American Storm III

At around 11 p.m., Yue Hao received a message from the tracking team that the sniper had been killed after making contact with the "No. 2" personnel, and his body had been thrown into the Hudson River. After killing the sniper, the "No. 2" personnel put on a diving suit and dived into the Hudson River and disappeared without a trace, and the clue was cut off.

This is the last thing Yue Hao wants to see, losing the monitoring target means that the activities in the shadows can unscrupulously find a way to deal with Morgan, originally wanted to turn passive into active, but he still underestimated Dick Cheney's ruthlessness.

Yue Hao came to the stronghold of the intelligence group again, and Zhou Qianzheng, who was responsible for leading the team to track the sniper, had returned to the stronghold, and when he saw Yue Hao coming, he explained in detail the whole process of the sniper's killing.

"This doesn't matter anymore, now that we have lost our goal, we are very passive in our actions, we can't sit back and wait for the other party to come to the door, you send a team of men to Washington, send a bullet to Dick Cheney, warn him, let him stop!"

"Okay, I'll lead the team myself, and if he doesn't know the times, I'll make his head bloom. Zhou Qianzheng rubbed his hands and said.

"Don't be impulsive, wait for me to notify you before you do it, and send another team of personnel to Los Angeles to keep an eye on it, I don't want anyone to harass DreamWorks!"

"Yes, Boss!"

William Rogers, who had the prospect of additional dividends, was so clever that it took him only a week to buy all the outstanding shares on the market.

Morgan took Yue Hao to Atlanta again, the acquisition cost a total of 24.4 billion US dollars, all the funds in place at one time, in the face of such a huge amount of funds, all the directors of the board of directors of the Sun Trust did not hesitate to vote directly to approve the acquisition offer, since then the Sun Trust has been merged into the Helium Star Commercial Bank.

On the evening of the day of the merger of the Sun Trust, all television media in the United States reported on the acquisition and privatization of the Sun Trust. This wave of operations has blinded Morgan, a free advertising campaign across the United States?

After merging with the Sun Trust, the number of Helium Star Commercial Bank branches reached 1,850, core assets exceeded $60 billion, funds under management exceeded $200 billion, and bank employees exceeded 40,000.

After Helium Star Commercial Bank took over the 1,200 branches of Sun Trust, Morgan began to close some branches that overlapped with each other, and transferred the incumbent staff who had lost their jobs to European countries and several developed countries in Asia, where they would open multiple branches to expand the business scope of Helium Star Commercial Bank.

While Morgan was expanding his sphere of influence with great fanfare, a call from Shirley Lansing, who was in Los Angeles, came to his mobile phone.

"Congratulations to Mr. Morgan on the completion of a huge acquisition! The merger negotiations on DreamWorks' side are also about to be completed, can the commercial banks come up with enough funds to support us?"

"Funding is not a problem, I don't know which film and television company Ms. Shirley has her eye on?"

"Disney!" Morgan's affirmative answer did not dispel Shirley Lansing's concerns, Disney's market value is as high as $56 billion, which is tantamount to a snake swallowing elephant for DreamWorks, which has a market value of just over $3 billion

But with Morgan's support, as long as this deal is completed, then she, Shirley Lansing, will truly become the most powerful person in Hollywood.

"Hehe!" Morgan laughed lightly and said, "Shirley, when the two choices of Paramount and Disney were placed in front of you, I knew that you would definitely choose Disney, and I had already prepared this acquisition fee for you, you can rest assured to negotiate the conditions, I will not hold you back." ”

……

In the presidential suite of the Rockefeller Center Hotel, the elder Rockefeller and Rothschild were once again reunited.

"Helium Star Commercial Bank has completed the acquisition of the Sun Trust, Richard, you must have gotten the news, now the negotiations on DreamWorks' acquisition of Disney will be completed soon, the show is about to begin, are you ready to watch the show? Old man!" Rothschild looked very excited as he kept walking back and forth in the suite.

"Don't blame me for dampening your interest, old man, even if that junior of Morgan completes the acquisition of the Sun Trust and Disney, the amount of money he spent is only 80 billion, which is nothing compared to the income they get in the crude oil market, and the little trouble you create for them can't hurt their bones!" Of course, the old Rockefeller knew about Rothschild's plan, but he was not optimistic about this plan, because they still couldn't fully understand Li Qingyuan's family background.

"Originally, I was going to defeat the Helium Star Commercial Bank in one fell swoop through a run, but as you said, they have made so many profits in the crude oil market, and mobilizing people to run on the market can't hurt their bones, so I'll give them a hard blow. Rothschild's eyes sparkled and his lips twitched, as if he had discovered a delicious food.

"What's your idea?"

"In the past few years, subprime mortgages in the United States have been very active, and both Merrill Lynch and Lehman Brothers have made a lot of money because of it, but you know the risks, any small change will cause a serious financial crisis. Rothschild took a sip of the milk tea on the coffee table and continued, "I think we can guide them into the subprime mortgage market!"

Old Rockefeller shook his head and reminded: "As far as I know, the Helium Star Commercial Bank has been reducing the amount of loans for more than a year, and it has not invested even a single dollar in the subprime mortgage market, so the probability of success of your plan is not high!"

"The so-called natural disaster, since they intend to avoid the risk of the subprime mortgage market, then we will artificially create opportunities for them to enter the subprime mortgage market, I am ready to mobilize 100,000 people to submit loan needs to commercial banks, I want to see how they refuse this fragrant bun!"

As long as the commercial banks lend loans, they will enter the subprime mortgage trap, and if they do not lend money, the credit crisis of the lending banks will naturally appear, and as long as they cooperate with the personnel run, then the commercial banks may collapse because of this, and even if they fail to fail, they can make the commercial banks unpopular banks, thereby lowering their credit ratings.

"Although it is a bit troublesome to mobilize 100,000 people, your plan is a good plan to kill two birds with one stone!"

"Haha!" Rothschild laughed heartily, and did not forget to joke when he was finished: "Compared with your use of our vice president, my plan is more hidden, and I don't have to worry about being disgraced." ”

"Admittedly, I underestimated the ability of the Morgan juniors to withstand pressure, let alone this Donald

Mr. dared to directly kidnap Dick Cheney's family as a threat, the Morgan family has produced a remarkable figure!"

"This has nothing to do with the Morgan family, with the resources in the hands of this Mr. Donald, no one dares to say half a word of nonsense when he is now on an equal footing with Charles!"

As the key area monitored by the monitoring system, the conversation between the old Rockefeller and Rothschild fell on the ears of the monitoring team members word for word, and Yue Hao, who got the report, came to Morgan's side as soon as possible and showed him the recorded image.

"These two old immortals are still not dead!" Morgan cursed through gritted teeth, wandering around the room with his hands behind his back to think about what to do.

Although even if tens of billions of loans were issued to these 100,000 customers, he would not be able to touch the foundation of Helium Star Investment Company, but he did not want to suffer this dumb loss. Morgan gritted his teeth and made a decision after a while, and although his decision would cause dissatisfaction among 100,000 customers, it would not be able to make a big storm compared to tens of millions of customers.

Morgan called the office of his secretary, Miria, and told her to tell all branch managers to come to the headquarters for a meeting tomorrow.

In the temporarily rented giant conference room, Yue Hao took more than 100 elite personnel to check the temporary conference room up and down, inside and out.

More than 1,800 managers and nearly 2,000 managers from various functional departments arrived at the meeting on time, and the assistant in charge of personnel registration checked the number of people and closed the door of the conference room.

Morgan stood on the small lectern in front of the conference room, watched the door of the conference room be closed, coughed lightly twice and walked to the middle of the podium, the scene was silent for a while, and the two thousand pairs of eyes in the conference room instantly focused on him.

"In view of the current economic development situation in the United States, the personal credit business is hot, especially the real estate credit business has become the focus of competition among the large investment banks, although our bank does not undertake the subprime mortgage business, but we have to guard against the fact that these large investment banks may find us as their subordinate underwriters, so I solemnly announce that Helium Star Commercial Bank does not accept any form of subprime mortgage business resale, and at the same time, Helium Star Commercial Bank's personal real estate credit loans will be stopped. ”

"Mr. Morgan, what do we need to do if someone makes a mortgage application?" asked a manager in the audience.

"If one of the customers asks to apply for a personal real estate loan, you will say that Helium Star Commercial Bank is making business adjustments, temporarily not providing loans, and at the same time refusing to introduce these businesses to Citibank and other big banks, although we rejected the customer's request, but in order to improve our service attitude and save the image of our bank in the hearts of customers, you can introduce other banks to them more enthusiastically, and even offer to help them contact the banking business. ”

"Mr. Morgan, during this period of time, due to the contraction of our loan business, there has been a lot of sluggish funds in the bank, which has caused us to lose a lot of profits, I wonder if Mr. Morgan can provide us with funds to export?"

"In a few days, DreamWorks, a subsidiary of the investment company, will acquire Disney Entertainment, and the spare money in your hands will be invested in this acquisition, which will generate a lot of profits!"

There was a way out of the funds, and the manager who asked the question sat back, but the news that DreamWorks was going to buy Disney was really shocking, and many managers in the audience couldn't help but stick their heads out and whisper.
