Chapter 192: Want to Whole GE! Disagree?

After Paul Brown's intervention, Lin's Power then met little resistance, and Lin signed two other contracts with Huaxin.

In the other two contracts, Huaxin will install a total of 1.5 million kilowatts of wind turbines for Link.

According to the suggestion of Huaxin's technical team, Link intends to install 150 units of 2,500 kilowatts on the high ground on the east and west sides of the Fairway Peak Farm, and 150 units of 2,000 kilowatts in the middle-aged basin area, for a total of 950,000 kilowatts.

At Baker Farm, 40 and 60 units of 2,500 kilowatts were installed in the Baker Valley and Oskeola, respectively, and 200 units of 1,500 kilowatts were installed in the desert, with a total installed capacity of 550,000 kilowatts.

All of those units use 110-meter columns.

However, both contracts will take four years to complete. The total contract value is 2.25 billion yuan.

Deere has good bargaining skills. It saved him at least $20 million in column heightening costs.

The contract is signed and approved by the State of Nevada. Until then, there had been sporadic criticisms of Link in the news media, but when the contract was signed, those voices suddenly disappeared.

This also led Link to confirm that the recent events were caused by GE in response to his wind energy development plan. If you say, it's just rumors, it's just social pressure. He doesn't care.

But those events left Cox badly injured, and Bill nearly died halfway. If he just let it go so gently, he would look down on himself.

It seems that the matter is over.

Jessica stayed with him at Hans's farm for two or three weeks, and when she saw the curtain come down, she went back to California to work on her business.

Link asked Matthew about them. It has been learned that a lawsuit has been filed against one hundred and three defendants who made discriminatory remarks on his personal social networking site. But if you want to hold a trial, you still need to wait for the procedure. In such a case with multiple defendants, it takes a considerable amount of time to collect evidence.

On this day, he carried Hannah to Hans's house. Koske had been discharged from the hospital, but was not at home, but went to school with his arms down.

He could tell Cox was hoping to go to college this year. However, Cox did not intend to spare the students who injured him, and the lawsuit has already been submitted to the court.

In order to minimize the impact of the lawsuit on Cox, Link asked Matthew to serve him in the case as well.

Bill also sued the biker who hit and injured him for $4.5 million.

Civil cases in the U.S. are often just claims. Moreover, a case can be tried twice, and criminal and civil liability can be tried separately.

For example, the Simpson murder case is a very typical case. In a criminal trial, the prosecution was required to present evidence of the defendant's guilt, and as a result, the court released Simpson on the spot due to insufficient evidence, while in the civil trial, Simpson was awarded more than $30 million in damages because he could not provide sufficient evidence to prove that he was not responsible for the death of his wife and his wife's boyfriend.

So Bill wants to sue the biker and make the other party bankrupt in minutes.

But those are just minions. The mastermind behind the scenes is still at ease. Did he just let them go? Of course not!

He didn't want to make the other person feel better. So he's going to be away for a while, and although Hannah has Ms. Hemmer to take care of, he's worried that Hannah will feel lonely without his family.

Hans is the only one at home, Barbara. Link said to Barbara, who was teasing Hannah, "Mom, I'm going to take a trip to New York." It can take a week to two weeks. Hannah is cared for by Ms. Hammer, but I wish I could have a loved one with her all the time. If you have time, can you often pick her up at home to play, or you go to Hans's farm to accompany her? ”

"Absolutely. I don't have much to do during the day, and I think I can go to the farm more often to spend time with her. You can also pick her up occasionally and bring her to the house. Barbara said with a smile. "You know, if I just take Hannah over and live there, I'm going to make Hemmer feel like I'm being denied. ”

Link thought for a moment and said that he really said that. He nodded and said, "Thank you, Mom!"

"Hannah is my granddaughter!"

Hannah heard her "granddaughter" thinking it was Barbara calling her, and looked up and answered sweetly, "Grandma!"

Barbara kissed her before asking, "What are you going to New York for?"

"I have something to do with Fren. ”

"The Wall Street tycoon you worked with?"

Link smiled and nodded, "That's right, it's that tycoon!"

"Then you pay attention to safety!"

After Link explained everything, he took a few bodyguards, Martha and Dill to New York in the class.

Martha and Deere are on their way to C&C Services. Link is looking for Fren.

Fren helps Link book a hotel, but only Martha and Dill stay at the hotel. Fren invites Link to stay at his home.

Flann's home is on the top three floors of a building next to Central Park in Manhattan.

From here, you can see Central Park at a panoramic view. Furren lives here alone, without even a servant, only a cook, and does not live here, and only comes during working hours. Usually I ask for part-time work.

After Flon took him on a tour.

Link nodded and said, "You're a pretty good house." It was decorated like a palace. "Although it's not a villa, it's better than a villa. The whole three floors are Fren's own, and apart from the absence of a garden, it is no worse than a villa.

"It's a bit big to live alone!" Flon said with a smile. "The previous owner offered 53 million and finally sold for 48 million. The renovation cost me over five million dollars!"

"It's not expensive!" Link looked at it. I think that nine suites are the most expensive area in Manhattan, and the location is good, and 50 million US dollars is really not expensive.

Furlen arranged a suite for him and two more for his four bodyguards. Luggage or something, the bodyguard will naturally handle it. He took Link to open a bottle of red wine at the bar.

He poured two glasses, took one and shook it to sober, and gave the other one to Link, saying, "You said you had something to discuss with me, what is it?"

Link said he was going to spend a week or two in New York. It made him a little strange. Link had rarely been away from his own turf for as long before.

Link did have something to discuss with Fren. He shook his glass slowly, and instead of answering the other party's question, he asked, "Do you know what the stock price of GE is now?"

Fren recalled, "Very high. In recent years, GE has developed rapidly because of wind power in the United States, and although its market share in the United States is not the first, its performance is very good. So the stock price has been soaring. Last year, GE's wind power business generated more than $38 billion in sales. The share price actually tripled. ”

Link had checked GE's stock performance before he arrived, at least for the last year. Last year, GE's stock split from $240 to $40, but now it has risen to about $60.

He also heard Flren say, "But lately its stock price has started to weaken a bit. Because some people think that the wind power market in the United States will shrink significantly. The recent promulgation of new standards for wind power is a signal to regulate the electricity production market. ”

Link laughed and said, "Maybe it has something to do with my contract, too." He said that the state of Nevada wanted to use the newly promulgated standards as a reason for refusing to approve his contract with Huaxin.

Fren frowned, and the book: "So the new standard came so quickly and so hidden, maybe it was because of your contract?"

Link nodded and said, "That's probably just a small part of the reason." However, I think there's a GE push for that. They want to keep Chinese companies out of the U.S. market. This was reminded by Team Leader Du.

"I think that's the main reason," Flon laughs. However, I think the development rate of wind power in the United States will definitely not be as fast as in previous years, and the market demand is likely to shrink very sharply. ”

He paused and added: "I'm worried that in the future, states will tighten the limits on the new capacity of wind power." I'm afraid I'm going to have to find a new direction to invest again. "He was thinking about investing in wind power before, and even Link's investment in wind power had his influence.

Link nodded and said, "Then find another one!" But I think we have very little investment and little impact. ”

Furlen smiled, not discussing the issue. He got back to the point: "What do you think when you ask GE about its stock price?"

"If I say that GE's share price will fall. Can you believe it?"

You know, although we are speculating, speculation also needs some data to support it. Furlen listened to him say that, and his face straightened. "Why do you think GE's stock price will fall?"

Link can't say he has the power to make GE's stock price fall.

He didn't know if the argument he had prepared would convince Fren. He thought for a moment and said, "You know I have a strong sixth sense! I think his stock price is going to fall." ”

Fren certainly doesn't believe in a sixth sense. He laughed and said, "I just know you're lucky." After laughing, he looked at Link seriously and said. "Link, you know we do speculation, and the last thing we can trust is hunch, intuition, and stuff like that. ”

Link knew he wouldn't believe himself.

He smiled wryly and said, "What if I'm lucky, if I short sell GE stock, its stock price will fall in response?"

Flon shook his head with a smile and said, "If it were other stocks, I would have believed it, but GE really can't!"

Link said distressedly, "You believe that my luck can affect a certain stock, but GE can't? Why?"

"Why do you think I think the wind market is shrinking?" Flon chuckled as he took a sip of his wine. "Because I found that several Wall Street institutions are holding back GE stock. If you were to say that its stock price would go up, I would agree. ”

"Why did they do that?" Link's brow furrowed when he heard the news. If that were the case, would his plan still be carried out?

"Because GE's share price will definitely fall because the wind power market is shrinking, and it will fall a lot," Flon sneered. Those institutions, as well as GE's major shareholders. They hope to ship slowly before investors reduce their confidence in GE. In this case, the losses caused by the decline in stock prices will be passed on to shareholders. ”
