Chapter 998: NASDAQ is about to collapse
Day 2. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It was about noon.
Huajin Capital contacted the heads of many investment banks and investment companies of the United States to come to the meeting, and this time Zhang Wei did not sloppily let people gather in the auditorium, but arranged the place in a relatively strict private club in Manhattan with a little force.
This time, we invited a lot of well-known banks and investment companies in the United States, such as Bear Stearns Bank, Citibank, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers, etc., among the top ten banks, as well as famous venture capital companies Sequoia Capital, DFJ, Enyi Investment, Kleiner Perkins Huaying, Polaris Investment, and Intel Investment, a total of 123 banks and investment companies.
With so many large investment banks and investment companies, the news must not be hidden.
Many reporters rushed to hear the news, wanting to know what Zhang Wei wanted to do when he summoned so many bigwigs today, but the private club was very strictly controlled, and they could only look forward to it outside the door, and there was no chance to contact Zhang Wei and those bigwigs, so they could only stand outside and wait on this still warm day, waiting for Zhang Wei and those bigwigs to come over, and then maybe they could interview something.
"Oops, our editor-in-chief made me have to interview!"
"Well, who isn't like that? We also have the editor-in-chief speaking personally. ”
"I heard that the top 10 investment banks and top 10 venture capital companies are here today, and there must be something big to develop. ”
"I also know it's a big event, but I can't get in the clubhouse. ”
"But to be honest, I don't think Zhang specifically wanted to hide it, otherwise we wouldn't have gotten the news. ”
"But he won't let us in for an interview, why?"
"Alas, the big guys have the ideas of the big guys, and if you want the news, just wait quietly outside!"
During the discussion, many reporters couldn't help but be curious about Zhang Wei's move today, and everyone wanted to know what big moves were going to be made when so many bigwigs were gathered!
Suddenly, a black Cadillac stopped, and three people got out of it.
"Eh, here's the man!"
"Hurry up and interview, hurry!"
"It's Zhang Wei, I don't know much about a man and a woman next to him. ”
Zhang Wei took Leng Yan and Guo Taiming to the private club, and all the reporters rushed over after seeing it, and some people even stretched out a voice recorder to ask over there.
The question asked is nothing more than why so many bigwigs are in a hurry to come, as for last night there were many people on the side of China and the United States who laughed at Zhang Wei and said that Zhang Wei was short-sighted and so on, although these reporters wanted to ask in their hearts, they couldn't ask it, because what they want to know more now is why Zhang Wei's actions today, to anger the demon Zhang, maybe today's news will not be settled, everyone knows very well about Zhang Wei, the murderous name and prestige are too much!
Seeing so many reporters surrounded, Zhang Wei did not refuse, and answered a few questions a little.
The reporters' cameras have also been turned on, and every word Zhang Wei says now will be written as news when he goes back, and as long as there is news about Zhang Wei in the past two days, whether it is the sales of newspapers or TV stations, the ratings of TV stations will increase, and even the number of clicks on online media will increase, they can't help but be concerned.
One of the black female reporters took a voice recorder and asked: "Mr. Zhang, in the past two days, you have raised a lot of money by selling the shares of Yahu and Huafeng Steel, and now you have summoned so many investment banks and companies to come, are you going to make any big moves?" Then, the reporters on the scene fell silent, which was a question that all of them were concerned about.
Except for the sound of cars on the side of the road, there was really no other sound.
During this period, several reporters hurriedly asked the photographer to put up the camera, for fear of missing what Zhang Wei said, and looked at them one by one with blazing eyes.
Zhang Wei was about to answer, when several unexpected people walked out of it.
Many reporters didn't pay attention to it at first, but when someone shouted in surprise, they learned that they were led by Semele, vice chairman of the board of directors of Yahu, and Steve Case, chairman of Meidi Online.
Semel may not be known to many, but he has a lot of experience, having spent 24 years at Warner Bros. as chairman and co-chief executive officer before joining Yahu. During this time, he worked with his partner Robert Daly to make Warner Bros. the world's largest and most creative media and entertainment company.
And Zhang Wei knows a little more than others, starting next year, Semel will be appointed chairman and CEO of Yahun Company, if nothing else, now Mr. Yang has begun to transfer power with Semel.
As for Steve Case, this guy once suffered at the hands of Zhang Wei because of the acquisition of Netscape.
Front.
The reporter with two peripheral points hesitated for a moment and walked up to Semel and the others, "Hello sir." ”
Semel glanced at Zhang Wei, retracted his gaze and smiled: "Hello." ”
The reporter said, "I'm a reporter for the Wall Street Journal, do you have any business with Mr. Steve Case?"
Steve Keys continued: "Of course, we at Imperialism and Yahu are both committed to the prosperity of technology stocks and are ready to work together to do something. ”
Several more reporters were interested, and they frequently looked sideways.
Semel and Steve Keys were still looking at Zhang Wei with strange eyes.
Coincidentally, the reporter asked earlier, "Zhang, you haven't answered my question yet." ”
Zhang Wei said calmly: "I also called everyone to talk about the Internet industry. ”
What?
You also want to talk about the Internet?
What's going on here, this!
The reporter sweated for a moment, looked at Zhang Wei unexpectedly, and thought he was joking, but Zhang Wei thought that they hadn't heard clearly, and said it again, and the reporters knew that Zhang Wei was serious. What does this mean? Many people on the Chinese and US imperialists are scolding him for being short-sighted and giving up Yahu's stocks, and today Zhang Wei has changed his ways? With tens of billions of dollars in his hands, he wants to continue to invest in the Internet industry? Can he be regarded as moving closer to the mainstream of investment? Or do you feel distressed that Yahu's shares have been sold, and you want to use those investment banks and investment companies to use the money to invest in the Internet? Are you too wavering?
Semel and Steve also glanced at each other at first, a little speechless at what Zhang Wei said, could it be that this demon Zhang wants to stage a drama of a prodigal son who does not change his money? But now that you have sold all the shares of Yahu, you can't make so much money if you want to invest in other Internet companies!
Regretted it?
Oh, it's late!
Many reporters around heard it, and their eyes couldn't help but flicker.
But Zhang Wei didn't say anything more later, and walked directly with Leng Yan and Guo Taiming inside, and went to meet those investment banks and companies with a smile.
……
Inside the clubhouse.
More than a dozen of them, either senior vice presidents of banks, or directors were waiting inside.
Zhang Wei walked in with someone, said hello to everyone, and roughly mentioned what he thought, but unfortunately, the heads of those banks and investment companies did not have anyone to express their position, but made an appointment to talk about it next time, obviously you, they are very suspicious of Zhang Wei's proposal to acquire Nokia, after all, it is necessary to borrow eight or nine billion US dollars, which is not a small amount, and they have to go back and discuss it with the company's board of directors.
As soon as the people left, Guo Taiming, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at Zhang Wei, "Xiao Zhang, do you really want to say that to reporters when you go out later?"
Zhang Wei smiled: "What do you say?"
Guo Taiming cried and laughed: "If this incident does happen, it will be too much of a slap in the face, if it doesn't happen, then we will be embarrassed and embarrassed!"
"I just talked to those banks and investment companies, and they obviously don't have confidence in us. Zhang Wei said calmly: "I want those banks and investment companies to know that my vision is the most accurate, so that they can have the confidence to lend me money." ”
Guo Taiming sighed and said worriedly: "I'm not worried about what you have to say, but I'm worried about whether the NASDAQ crash will happen what you told me." ”
Zhang Wei smiled mysteriously, and said very habitually: "Then do you think that what I predicted before was miscalculated? Many people think like you!"
"Khan, you're not going to hit me in the face, are you? Hey, don't say it, the two words you said to me in the face are so apt, I like to use them. Guo Taiming said half-dizzily and half-teasingly.
After an afternoon of not talking about the reason, the three of them came out of the private room and prepared to go home, when they suddenly saw a piece of news playing on the TV in the hall of the clubhouse, which was the news interviewed by reporters Semel and Steve Keys at the door of the club today, but the content was not very friendly.
Steve Case: "...... Tech stocks are definitely worth investing in right now. ”
Semele: "yes, if anyone gives up tech stocks at this juncture, they're definitely a fool of fools. ”
Steve Case: "That's right, for example, the well-known auction sale of shares two days ago is clearly self-depraved and short-sighted!"
This is obviously talking about Zhang Wei!
As soon as the news was broadcast, the audience did not react.
However, there are many voices of approval in the society, basically the so-called financial experts and technology stock supporters on Wall Street, as if they heard a particularly classic case, and applauded one by one!
When they heard the words of those Wall Street people, many citizens were speechless, what is there to praise about this? You are all too following the trend, aren't you? I Khan, some people say that the biggest thing on Wall Street is not investors, but followers, who didn't believe it before, but now they believe it completely!
Zhang Wei, who saw this news, looked at Guo Taiming and said with a smile: "So, do you want to believe me to fight?"
Guo Taiming scolded: "Grass! must be proven! If you tell them that the NASDAQ is going to collapse, you will slap them in the face!"
