"Hey, Jamie, your performance in the negotiations was so good, as an opponent, I didn't expect you to be able to get back 0 for the Voyagers Group in that situation. 25 of the share exchange rights. ”

Jamie Dimon was inexplicably able to see a young Asian man walk out of the office in Sandywell, and the young man patted himself on the shoulder enthusiastically.

After Jamie Dimon shook hands with Zhang Chen in a daze, he realized that this kid was Zack, the actual controller of Tinder Source.

Looking at Sandieville standing at the door of the office, his face was so heavy that he looked like he was about to drip water.

Jamie Dimon secretly screamed unlucky, and let go of his hand abruptly, only to see Zhang Chen squeezing his eyes narrowly at him.

This kid is so bad.

Although he didn't know what happened to Zhang Chen and Sandywell in the office, looking at Sandwell's face, his side should not have taken any advantage.

At this time, let the extremely controlling Sandyvale see himself and Zhang Chen talking and laughing, what should he think?

How unlucky.

Little did Jamie Dimon know that in a few days, something even more unlucky would await him.

Zhang Chen came out of the Traveler Group's building on Manhattan's East Side, feeling refreshed, and threatening a top banker felt too cool.

After the merger of Salomon Brothers and Voyagers Group, his shares in Salomon Brothers will be converted to the two merged Solomon Smith Barney companies at a ratio of 1.85:1, and the shares of Voyager Group will be converted to the new company at a ratio of 1:1 after the stock split.

According to this ratio, he will hold 3.97% of Salomon Smith Barney's shares, becoming one of the top five shareholders of Salomon Smith Barney, and BlackRock Fund, State Street Capital, Vanguard Capital Group, and Fidelity Capital are ranked ahead of Tinder.

Even Sandyvale has only a 1.63% stake. Sandyvale's control over the Travelers Group has never been because of how much equity he owns in the company.

After the merger, the market value of Salomon Smith Barney soon exceeded $36 billion, and after the merger with Citigroup, the new Citigroup became the world's largest all-round financial group, with a peak market value of $270 billion in 2006 before the subprime mortgage crisis, and total assets of more than $1.8 trillion.

Finally, he is on the same platform as these invisible giants who control the world economy.

Zhang Chen knows very well that standing on the same platform does not mean that his status can be equal to these capital groups, and he is not even qualified to practice looking up to him now.

But whatever, in short, right now, Zhang Chen is in a very good mood.

There was a blizzard in New York two days ago, and the snow and ice on the roadside have not yet melted, and the rooftops of the entire city are covered in silver, a view that is completely invisible in warm California.

took out the phone and called Bellankefen, who has been in New York for the past few days, and he also sent Zhang Chen to the Travelers Group in the morning, because it was a private meeting, Belankefen did not go in, but waited for Zhang Chen in a nearby café.

"Lauerde, where are you? Copi coffee? Oh, I see, wait a minute. ”

There are many people in the café, after all, this is Manhattan, and there are countless fund managers talking about various businesses in the café every day.

Zhang Chen ordered a cup of Mocha, and Bellankefen smiled: "It's done?"

Zhang Chen nodded, "It's done." ”

Belrankfinn laughed: "It's not easy to make Sandyvale deflated. ”

Zhang Chen shook his head and said: "We want a board seat is reasonable, Fidelity has less than 0.1% more shares than us, and there is also a board seat, in the end, these troubles are still caused by us being too weak." ”

Blanciffen thought so, but still excitedly said: "Now that I think about it, it's really dangerous, and we can't afford any mistakes and losses in between." ”

Zhang Chen smiled: "It's not that serious, even if the Traveler Group doesn't acquire Salomon Brothers, we won't pay for it." It is only a matter of time before the new bill is passed, and now that the US financial industry is very prosperous, I predict that there will be a golden period of more than ten years, and I don't believe that Wall Street will not see this, even if the Travelers Group does not buy Salomon Brothers, Chase, JPMorgan Bank, Citigroup, Meiyi, these banks will be interested in Salomon Brothers, but it may take a little more twists and turns. ”

Zhang Chen sighed: "Actually, I am very optimistic about Salomon Brothers' bond business, if it weren't for our loan pressure, there would be no need to be so anxious to promote this matter, if we wait another two years, relying on the bond business, Salomon Brothers may be able to be reborn, and when the time comes, it may not be possible to acquire who with the Traveler Group." So, Sandyvale knew very well that he was still making a lot of money in this business. ”

Blancfin nodded, which was also his judgment of the entire economic situation, "Boss, can we go back to California for the celebration?" Belankeffin joked.

Zhang Chen said with a smile: "Of course the celebration party has to be held, but Lauerde, we still have something very important to do now." ”

Blancfin was also in a very good mood, and said lightly: "What's the matter?

Zhang Chen laughed and said, "Lauerde, I don't think the current structure of the Tinder Source can give full play to your strengths and abilities, so I decided to split up. ”

Blankefin was dumbfounded, and how could he not have known anything about such an important matter beforehand? Could it be that Zack was not satisfied with his work?

Blankefen's heart went up and down.

Zhang Chen said with a straight face: "Lauerde, it's not that I'm dissatisfied with your work. Tinder Capital, at the beginning of its establishment, I positioned it as a venture capital firm, and you know, we grew through a stake in ICQ, so my focus was on the venture capital part. ”

"But now it's different, and we've taken a stake in Salomon Brothers, and we've kind of stepped into the investment banking industry. After Salomon Brothers was acquired by the Travelers Group, it is already a comprehensive financial group, and we are the director-level enterprise of the Travelers Group, in this case, in order to consolidate our position on Wall Street, it is necessary to readjust and sort out the current structure of Tinder. ”

Bellankefen's face was solemn, he knew that what Zhang Chen said was right, he also felt that there seemed to be some problems with the current structure of the Tinder Source before, but where the problem was, he didn't have time to think about it yet, after all, he had been too busy recently.

Zhang Chen took a sip of coffee and continued: "My idea is that the structure of Tinder Source in the future will be composed of three parts, the first part is our current main business, venture capital. I'll do this part of the work myself, so I don't need to talk about it for now. The second part, the banking sector, is now certain that we have access to the board of directors of the Traveler Group, and there may be greater development in this area in the future, so it is necessary to separate this part of the business. The third part is private placement. ”

Bellankefen was a little surprised, Zhang Chen has always operated with his own funds and loans, and he first made suggestions, but they were all vetoed by Zhang Chen, and the reason given was that the timing was wrong.

Now that Zhang Chen has taken the initiative to propose PE business, that is, he thinks the time is ripe?

Ask for a monthly ticket for your dream and a recommendation ticket for yourself!
