Chapter 878: Crazy to lend money to Andy's Bank of America
By the end of the dinner, it was 10 o'clock in the evening.
When Andy and Ivana, who was a little drunk and swaying, and became more and more charming, walked out of the gate of the white temple-like mansion, there was already goose feather snow in the sky, and although the new red carpet had been cleaned, a layer of snowflakes still fell.
"Bang!"
The bodyguards behind him held up two black umbrellas to shield the two of them from the snowflakes, Andy hugged Ivana who had put on her coat tightly, and when the cold wind blew, Ivana's fair and pretty face became more and more red and bright.
"Giggles, what a beautiful night... ”
Ivana clinged to Andy's arms, and did not forget to lift the hem of her skirt that was mopping the floor, revealing a small section of her fair calf, and looked up at Andy with a charming smile on her face.
"If you like, how about we go skiing at the Yellowstone Club in a few days?"
"Okay - it's better to relax in the car... ”
After getting into the car, Ivana lay in Andy's arms and said, "Looks like you and Michael Bloomberg have reached an agreement?"
"Well, for the time being, this old guy's control YU is too strong, as long as the half of the equity in his hands is not reduced for a day, I have no chance at all, and the remaining two shareholders are very supportive of him, although I have three votes in my hand, but it can only bring her some trouble, and can not affect the company's decision-making, at present, it can only be like this, cooperate for the time being, his political career is not over, for Bloomberg, as long as I don't touch the data terminal business, he will not hinder me.
Besides, my target was not a data terminal in the first place, hmph, such a huge coal transfer resource, if it is not used well, it is really a bit of a tyrannical thing!"
"Giggles, you know that your ambition is the greatest, take your time, don't rush some things, since you can't kill with one blow, then wait patiently, be patient... ”
Listening to Ivana's relief, Andy lowered his head and entrenched her cold and moist red chun, stroking her arm back and forth.
。。。。。。
"I can't take it!"
At the same time, Michael Bloomberg, who had just sent off all the guests, sat on the boss's chair in the study with his legs crossed a little tiredly, smoking a cigar, and looked at Matthew Winkoler, who was also the founder of the company and the head of the news business, with an angry face on the coffee cup on the desk.
Michael Bloomberg frowned and looked at Matthew Winkoler opposite and said: "Matthew, I'm sorry, for the sake of the company's stability, I can only hand over the media business to him to stabilize this greedy wolf, I hope you can help me keep an eye on him, of course, cooperate with him, he will get the right to appoint and remove." ”
"Michael, how could you possibly compromise with him? You made a deal? Did you make a political deal? Damn, is that what fascinates you about the mayor's throne of New York?"
"That's enough!Hey, forget it, since you don't want to, then transfer back to the partnership, serve as vice president, and help Daniel manage the data terminal business... ”
"Michael, you can't do that to me! I'm the founder too!"
"But you sold your shares to that kid! FXXK! He now holds three votes of the board of directors, and he already has 33% of the shares, making him the second largest shareholder! Get out!"
Michael Bloomberg was like a mad old lion king, leaning forward suddenly, roaring with a fierce expression of oppressive eyes.
Complaining, the unwilling Matthew Winkohler was like a duck choked by the neck, his face was flushed, his eyes were evasive, and he didn't dare to look at Michael Bloomberg, and then like a deflated ball, he stood up dejectedly, and silently turned around and walked out of the study.
"Bitch crumbs!"
After a violent breath, Michael Bloomberg, who slowly calmed down his anger, looked at the papers on the table, took a puff of his cigar, and after spitting it out, his eyes narrowed slightly.
When he left Bloomberg to become mayor in 2002, his company had only one news organization. Now, the company has eight subordinate news organizations with different teams in newswire, television, radio, online, magazines and other areas.
Throwing this cake to Andy Smith will not only stabilize this wolf, but also integrate the media business to expand Bloomberg's influence and sell more data terminals, killing two birds with one stone!
And, of course, the help he promised himself in his bid for a third term as mayor of New York!

"The Rockets lost and stopped winning five in a row, and Da Yao scored 30 points and 16 rebounds in the game...

Housing starts in the United States fell 14.2% in December 2007 to an annual rate of 1.006 million, the lowest in 16 years. ”
Andy lazily rested his feet on the desk, looked at the snow falling outside the floor-to-ceiling window, and listened to the assistant read him the latest news.
"Shhhh
Adjusted the posture of lying down, touching the wound on the back, couldn't help but make Andy frown, Ivana, who was a little drunk last night, rode too high, and when he started to speed up the horse and BIAN, he was scratched by the high Ivana on the back.
"Boss, what's wrong with you? ”
Tori saw the Great Demon King's eyebrows, looking like he was in pain, and hurriedly asked with concern.
"It's okay, I was scratched by a big cat last night. Andy said casually, Tori Black couldn't help but glance at the big demon king charmingly, and secretly complained that the bad queen didn't know what it was like, so she would scratch uncontrollably.
"At 3 p.m., you'll be in attendance at the press conference for the launch of the NBA Celestial Empire, where the new CEO and board members will be present... ”
"Well, got it. Andy is still very concerned about the newly established NBA Celestial Empire, a company involving $2.3 billion, after all, HK Lee's richest man, Celestial Empire Bank, and Fantasy Group are all one of the shareholders, as well as many NBA strategic partners, even Disney has subscribed for five percent of the shares like him, the Celestial Empire market is too tempting, and this is undoubtedly a good channel to better share the rapid economic development of the Celestial Empire.
Knock Knock –
"Come in. ”
"Boss, Mr. Alvitatre has arrived. Pushing the door in, it was Andy's young fu assistant who walked in.
"Well, let him in, Tori, and make Al a cup of coffee. ”
Andy looked at Alvitre who walked in, and smiled and instructed the little assistant beside him.
"Thank you, boss, but don't need to, I'm afraid I don't have time to drink, boss, Lewis from Bank of America has arrived. ”
Hearing Al's words, Andy couldn't help but laugh and got up from the boss's chair, walked to the coat mirror and stretched his arms back, put on a suit with the help of Tori and said with a smile: "They are really interesting, we are not in a hurry to borrow money, but their bank is in a hurry to send it to the door." ”
"Hehe, they followed us to speculate on gold once, but a few days ago when the $850 shock was thrown away, I regret it, I will naturally be very anxious when I hear that we want to borrow money, you must know that Citi has been pestering me during this time, hoping that we choose their bank. Al explained with the same smile.
"Haha, it's still the old way, whoever has the lowest interest rate we choose. ”
"Then I'm afraid you don't have to choose, the loan interest rate given by the Bank of America doesn't give other banks a chance at all, they have cooperated with you more times and know you too well. ”
Andy smiled as he walked out of the office, shook his head and said, "Lewis, believe it or not, if I borrow four billion, he will definitely encourage me to borrow more." ”
。。。。。。
"Andy, four billion doesn't play much role in your planning at all, believe me, after you paid 3.3 billion to buy Bloomberg shares, the remaining money is really not enough for you to spend, how about six billion? ”
Andy looked at Al with a smile, shrugged his shoulders, and said with a smile to Lewis, who was foaming at the mouth and persuaded him to borrow a little more money: "Hey, man, the main thing is that I borrowed so much money and have nowhere to use it, I can't sleep on my account, okay, it's still in your bank." ”
"Andy, we are friends, don't do this to me, hundreds of millions of dollars are not enough for Musica to burn, if we can, we are willing to invest in Musica... ”
When Andy heard Lewis's words, he couldn't help but smile faintly, shook his head and refused: "It's my BABY, how can I sell it like a commodity." ”
Everyone in the room rolled their eyes at the same time, eager to give Andy the middle finger.
"Well, even if it's still a BABY, but hopefully one day when you think it's grown up and want to sell it for a good price, call us, and our Bank of America is willing to join its Series A financing!"
Lewis knows that the young man in front of him is a very greedy guy, and the current Musica cloud computing has amazed the world, but the valuation is only 2 billion US dollars after all, and if he is killed, the guy in front of him will not take out financing, and if he does not maximize the benefits, he will not let anyone take advantage of it, Andy Smith will not let anyone take advantage of it.
Of course, even so, there are still many people who are willing to jump on the board and slaughter Andy at will, after all, it is a new technology with great value and can change the status quo of the Internet - cloud computing.
