When everyone calmed down again, Zhang Bin said: "I'm thinking, everyone should be very curious at the moment, how did I sit in this position, why?" ”

The people below smiled kindly, they really thought so.

Why did a young boy from Asia sit in the middle, it seems that even an investment predator like Paulson is more polite to him.

When everything was almost brewed, Zhang Bin said: "Actually, the reason is very simple, because I can bring what everyone wants."

"I believe that the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis is not only for a certain company, or just a certain industry, but also for a wide range of industries, it may be finance, construction, transportation, investment, etc., no matter what industry, in such an environment, as long as there is one thing, that is money," Zhang said.

"Global investment can give other companies what they want, that is, cash, but the premise is that global investment feels that there is value to invest, investment is about returns, if we feel that even if we invest, there will be no return, then why should I invest."

"Okay, then again, I'm sitting here today because I have capital that other people think is worthwhile, and that capital can be cash or capabilities, such as investment capabilities, and the establishment of Global Investment should be a boon to some companies, and I never doubt that, so I need to announce the following two news."

Zhang Bin paused, glanced at the people below, and said with a smile: "Global Investment Company has reached an agreement with Apple to invest $3.4 billion to acquire 50 million shares of Apple's benefit shares, as for the second news, Global Investment Company has decided to invest $2 billion to account for 25% of FedEx's shares."

As soon as these words came out, the scene was in an uproar, although there was news before, but there was no specific number and share, I didn't expect it to be such a big deal.

Isn't the sum of the two investments 5.4 billion US dollars, and everyone can't help but secretly wonder how much cash this global investment company has at the beginning.

In these years, especially at the critical moment of the subprime mortgage crisis, having money really represents strength, and whichever company has more liquidity, it means that your strength is stronger.

Of course, there is a part of Zhang Bin's funds in the 5.4 billion US dollars, but in order to achieve the effect, others are also happy to Zhang Bin to say so, which can also reflect their confidence and strength.

Next, Steve Jobs and Schweide spoke about the signing of the agreement.

Then O'Neill signed the agreement for the two companies, and this is only a preliminary agreement, billions of dollars of investment, and there is a lot of work to be done, but that's all down.

Billions of dollars were signed in black and white, and everyone began to talk about the newly established global investment company, speculating about what their investment bottom line was.

The next part is simple, leaving time for reporters to speak.

It seems that everyone is more concerned about Zhang Bin, and almost half of the questions are asked to him.

For these questions, Zhang Bin gave selective answers.

The clock soon approached twelve, and O'Neill announced the end of the conference.

Although there are still many reporters who have not had the opportunity to ask questions, they can only give up.

At noon, at the Hanton Hotel, Zhang Bin, as the host, invited everyone to stay and dine, excluding reporters, of course.

It is rare for so many financiers to get together, and everyone is in good spirits and has put forward some points for discussion.

Zhang Bin rarely spoke, because among all the people present, his qualifications were the shallower, and if it weren't for what he had in his head, he certainly wouldn't be sitting here.

So in order to avoid revealing the stuffing, Zhang Bin will speak as little as possible.

Because there were women accompanying him, Zhang Bin asked Zhou Jingyu to be in charge of accompanying him, and with Melinda there, Zhang Bin was not worried.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Bin saw off the guests one after another.

Jobs is also gone, and he will have people in charge of negotiating with O'Neill about the follow-up of the contract.

Shi Weide stayed, and he was still waiting for Zhang Bin to talk to him about the follow-up.

He is looking forward to a new direction and future for him and his company from this young investor.

He couldn't believe Zhang Bin, but he felt that Zhang Bin had the ability to gather so many top capitalists, so he must have superior skills, and he chose to believe it.

In the afternoon, Zhang Bin had another matter, that is, he was interviewed by a domestic media and a Washington media.

This is unavoidable.

The domestic media are naturally official media, and they naturally have a certain priority over other domestic media in interviews.

"May I ask Mr. Zhang, about Global Investment Company, can I take the liberty of asking you about the specific proportion of your shares?" The reporter, a young woman, asked with a smile.

"This is a company secret, so I have nothing to say," Zhang Bin replied.

"Then I want to ask Mr. Zhang, you yourself also own a lot of industries in China, but it seems that I heard that the amount of loans in China exceeds billions, but you can easily take out billions of dollars abroad, is there a possibility of asset transfer?" the reporter asked.

Zhang Bin felt a little unhappy in his heart, he felt that the reporter was not asking questions, but as if he was questioning.

"First of all, I need to clarify one point, that is, I only have a small part of the billions of dollars, in addition, the domestic loan is for business needs, how much money I personally have and this is not in conflict, no matter how much the group loan, that means that the bank recognizes that we have the ability to repay, and my personal strength is not also one of the factors that the bank values? So the transfer of assets, I hope it's just your personal speculation", Zhang Bin said politely, but he believed that this passage would never be broadcast.

"Then have you ever thought about investing so much money in the domestic market," the reporter asked.

"I'm first and foremost a Chinese, and if there's something good, the first thing I think of is definitely my country, there's no doubt about that," Zhang said.

"Regarding the subprime mortgage crisis that broke out in the United States, I would like to ask Mr. Zhang what he thinks about it, and have you ever thought about how much impact it will have on the domestic financial market?"

“……”。

It was already half past five in the afternoon when the two interviews ended, and after Zhang Bin asked Mao Shiyang to send the reporter away, he let people find Ivre.

Ivor, so to speak, was half of his assistant in Washington, D.C., and he was helping with a lot of things.

As a result, Ivor is not available now, as if he is discussing investment with others.

Zhang Bin looked for others, but everyone was busy.

It seems that everyone was busy after the press conference, and the reporters felt that it would be more advantageous to ask other people than Zhang Bin himself.

Zhang Bin had a rare time and went back to the room.

Zhou Jingyu didn't come back, Zhang Bin made a call, and Zhou Jing said that she was accompanying Melinda and them outside at this time.

Zhang Bin explained that he was careful and safe, and he was ready to wash and rest.

Recently, for these things, the whole person has not been relaxed, and now that the matter has finally come to an end, Zhang Bin can also rest for two days.

Zhang Bin was finishing washing, but there was a knock on the door.

Zhang Bin saw that it was Shi Weide.

It seemed that the other party couldn't wait, and Zhang Bin opened the door.

"Hi Zhang, I'm sorry, I should have let you rest for a while, but I'm leaving tomorrow, you know, I want to have a brief conversation with you about FedEx's business development", Shi Weide said sorry, but the person walked in directly.

Zhang Bin smiled, he didn't have a bad impression of Shi Weide, who had a direct temperament.

Walking to the wine cabinet, Zhang Bin took out a bottle of champagne and opened it.

"Shi Weide, I would like to ask, how is the company's business in Huaxia?" Zhang Bin sat down and asked, handing the other party a glass of wine.

Shi Weide took the wine and drank it in one sip, smashed his mouth and said: "The business development is very slow and the progress is difficult, mainly because the domestic express delivery business in China is developing rapidly."

In fact, FedEx is the first express company to look at the Chinese domestic market, and it is also the first express company to establish an Asian transit center in China, and it is also the express company with the most direct domestic flights.

Although this achievement is good, but for FedEx and their plans are far from enough, the current progress is more to stay in the domestic and foreign contact, or the use of the mainland as a transit point for Asian services, in fact, in the mainland itself business, FedEx is indeed a little difficult.

"I have an e-commerce platform under my control, and I would like to ask you what you think about the future of e-platform transactions in the mainland," Zhang Bin asked.

"This is a trend in future trading", Shi Weide obviously did not understand what Zhang Bin meant.

"I asked people to do a survey, in the next few years, my country's netizens will be more inclined to online shopping, one day, online shopping will surpass physical shopping, do you believe it?" Zhang Bin asked.

"You're saying this is our breakthrough?" Shi Weide asked with a slight frown.

"The development of e-commerce will definitely be very fast, imagine when people in a country are used to online shopping, how much impact this will have on the country's express delivery industry, I think you should understand very well," Zhang Bin said.

Shi Weide began to be silent, he felt that what Zhang Bin said made sense, but such a situation is based on the prosperity and development of e-commerce platforms.

"You have to know that the most important thing in express delivery service is to establish channels, if the initial cost is too much, if the profit is too thin, I think it will be difficult to achieve breakeven", Shi Weide has a better understanding of the domestic express delivery level, the profit is too thin, not in line with their development philosophy.

"Capturing the market is far more important than making a profit in the immediate future, isn't it?" Zhang Bin looked at him and said, "And believe me, if you can treat my fellow citizens with the same attitude towards Americans, they will be willing to pay the same price for your services."

Shi Weide nodded, still pondering.

"Of course, you don't need to agree now, you can do a survey when you go back, I can tell you that a considerable part of my future investment will be tilted towards e-commerce platforms, and if you cooperate with me, I believe that in the next five years, there will be a place for FedEx in the mainland express delivery market," Zhang Bin finally said.

"Well, I'll definitely think about it, excuse me, and I hope we can have a good time working together in the future," says Schweider.

Global Investments holds a 25% stake in FedEx, and in the coming period, Zhang's opinion may determine every FedEx investment.

However, Zhang Bin knows that after April next year, FedEx will usher in its golden development period, with a market value rising all the way, and a turnover of more than 30 billion, directly entering the world's top 500.

After Shi Weide left, Ivor came to Zhang Bin.

"Do you know how powerful this time is? I want us to invest and those who are willing to invest in us to pay attention to New York, I have to say, this is really a thing to celebrate, I think we have to have a toast", Zhang Bin just opened the door, and Ivor and Zhang Bin came to a warm hug.

"Hey, man, I've washed it", Zhang Bin motioned for him not to hug it too tightly.

"What a boring guy", Ivoll walked in himself and found two cups on the table, "Has anyone been here?" ”

"That guy Shi Weide is leaving tomorrow, and he came to say goodbye just now," Zhang Bin said.

"What did he say?" Ivor asked.

"I didn't say anything", Zhang Bin naturally wouldn't say anything about cooperation, but it didn't seem necessary to say it, because this kind of thing said that Ivor didn't care.

"What I just told you, you know, I may have endless investments in the next few days", said Eiffel helplessly, "This feeling makes me feel beautiful."

"Be careful not to be fooled, you know our plans, we won't take out a penny again this year, otherwise you don't want to pay a penny at the end of the year", Zhang Bin said seriously.

Ivor poured himself a glass of wine and touched it with Zhang Bin, "Let's have a toast so that I can get dividends."

"What if someone invests?" Ivor laughed.

"Who?" Zhang Bin asked with interest.

"Chase, you know, they have money," Ivor said with a mysterious expression.

"Chase?" Zhang Bin was a little uncertain, "How could they invest in us?" ”

Eiffel laughed: "We are a hot spot for investment now, and with so many financiers getting together to figure out how to make money, do you think other people will think that we will make a loss-making trade?" When the subprime mortgage crisis broke out for the first time this year, no one's business was doing well, and they also had to find a new investment direction, right? ”

Zhang Bin was a little hesitant, and it seemed a little too risky to cooperate with giants like Morgan and Chase.

How does Chase Bank, with more than $700 billion in funds under management, and the largest credit card issuer in the United States, this is a giant in the investment world.

Chase Bank is mainly composed of three parts, the first Chase Manhattan Company, which has been renamed Chase Bank of America by this time, is the largest bank in the United States.

The second part was J.P. Morgan, which was established in London as a British merchant bank and later developed into a prestigious financing company.

The third segment is the Fleming Group, a global investment banking group based in London.

In 2000, the three companies officially merged to become J.P. Morgan, Chase.

Just this year, Chase Bank successfully acquired Bear Stearns, the fifth-largest investment bank in the United States, which is a big deal, considering that the transaction between them could exceed $30 billion.

As for the most recent, Chase Bank spent $2 billion to buy Washington Mutual.

At a time when most investment banks are hurrying to collect the funds in their hands, J.P Morgan is hurrying to buy everywhere, which is also a manifestation of worrying about having too much money.

(The fourth and fifth watches were sent together)
