Chapter 150: Fall into the well and take advantage of the fire to rob

The bankruptcy and reorganization of Hans Commercial Real Estate Development Company completely ignited the huge storm that swept the entire American banking industry.

The storm intensified, and banks were constantly being drawn into the maelstrom. Many bank stocks fell sharply and rapidly, and in just a few days, the wealth accumulated for several years or more was wiped out...... However, the most affected by this are the small regional banks, savings and loan banks, etc., and the big banks have been affected to a limited extent, although the stock price also fell, but it quickly stabilized.

Therefore.

The Reagan administration did not realize the seriousness of the financial turmoil, let alone examine the plight of the domestic banking industry and propose a rescue plan.

"The banking crisis has really erupted!"

Witnessing the chaotic situation in recent days, many people couldn't help but recall Tang Bao's remarks a few days ago, and they were shocked to find that they were all true.

Tang Bao accurately predicted the banking crisis in the United States.

Pity......

Because of his arrogance, arrogance, greed, blind confidence, and overoptimism, he completely ignored Tang Bao's warning.

The result?

The company's stock price plummeted, the company lacked funds, bad debts skyrocketed, and even there was an existential crisis...... The price to pay is not small.

I regret it and feel very angry at the same time.

regretted it because they didn't heed Tang Bao's warning. Anger is directed at the news media and countless market analysts.

The most active performers, Standard & Poor's and Jals, are naturally the first to bear the brunt.

"S&P and Jars are scammers, they deceive investors......"

"Fack!"

"S&P's market analysis reports are just shit, they're all talking nonsense with their eyes closed."

"I'm disappointed that S&P has played a very dishonorable role in this crisis, they are doing things with personal grudges, and they are very unfair to the market......"

"S&P's market analysis report misleads many investors and banking institutions. Everyone needs to stand up and sue them for their deception. A well-known law firm in New York also realized that this was a good opportunity to make a lot of money, and also jumped out to call on investors to sue S&P.

……

The spearhead of anger was all pointed at S&P, and suddenly, S&P was in dire straits. There is no way, as an authority trusted by the majority of investors and enterprises, S&P's remarks, market analysis reports, etc., will have a wide range of decision-making effects on investors and enterprises.

What's more, this time the S&P is the most active, and it is difficult not to be found out!

The gun shoots the first bird.

That's what I'm talking about.

As the storm blows more and more fiercely, more and more banks and companies are in trouble, of course. The number of people who joined the crusade against the S&P army is also growing.

Then.

It turned out that many analysts who followed in the footsteps of S&P to ridicule and ridicule Tang Bao also tacitly kept a low profile, and occasionally followed the "trend" to bombard S&P for being irresponsible and misleading investors. Anyway, I tried my best to downplay and erase my dishonorable role in the whole incident.

Judging from the current situation, they can be regarded as successfully getting out, but they have pushed S&P into the abyss, and they can't climb out if they want to.

"Fack, these damn wallgrass!"

Gott, president of S&P Corporation, sat in a chair. Looking at today's newspaper, I found that many familiar analysts and others are shirking their responsibilities and stepping on the S&P, and they are almost not angry. The face was gloomy and terrible.

Syllable.

A casual glance at the newspapers showed that almost all of them were news about the crusade against S&P, and in short, there was not a single piece of news that was favorable to S&P.

Goth is clear. If there is such a situation, it will certainly not be spontaneous, and there must be two sworn enemies of the S&P Moody's and Fitch secretly fueling the trouble.

"Whew. These damn bastards ......"

Gott, who had an ugly face, stayed alone in the office to vent his anger, and then called the presidents of Moody's and Fitch respectively, and talked for more than ten minutes. What exactly was talked about, no one other than Goth and the people involved knew it was clear.

“……”

Zars stared at the news in the newspaper, lost for a long time. He expected that some of his recent remarks would cause problems for S&P, but he didn't expect it to be so serious. "Damn, these despicable villains, they want to use the S&P as a substitute for the dead!"

Zars roared unwillingly from the bottom of his heart, he had already prepared a letter of resignation, but if he could not resign, of course he didn't want to leave.

He still has a fluke and fantasy in his heart. I hope that the impact will not reach the point where it will be difficult to eliminate, at least not affect my own work.

Switch to a different point in time.

Even if he leaves S&P, Zars will not care very much, with his ability, as long as he wants, he can find a new owner at any time.

But.

This resignation is not so simple.

In order to save his reputation, S&P is afraid that he will throw all the black pots on him, and his role in this matter will be infinitely magnified.

This will have a serious impact on him, and it will not be as easy as it used to be if he wants to find a satisfying job again.

No boss wants to hire an employee who will cause a lot of trouble for the company!

……

Zars sat at his desk and was silent for more than ten minutes, slowly pulling open the drawer and stuffing an envelope into his pocket.

And then.

Walked to Gort's office!

"Knock knock......" There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

When he looked up and saw that the person was Zars, Gort suddenly had no good face, and scolded secretly, it was this bastard who put S&P in this crisis of confidence. If you don't do it well, you will be sued by countless investors...... It's all this idiot, it's all him!

Thinking of this, Gort's anger was a little uncontrollable.

"Hmph, Zars, you still have the face to stay in the company, look at ...... It's all because of you! Goth slammed a newspaper down in front of Zars and said angrily.

Looking at the angry Gort, Zars became unusually calm.

"Yes, a lot of market analysis reports are written by me, but they are sent out with your permission. If the company doesn't agree, I can't do it. ”

"Huh? What do you mean? Goth couldn't help but be surprised. After taking a closer look at the other party, he found that Zars was unusually calm today, and he was no longer respectful and flattering to him. It seems that he realizes that he can't continue to stay in S&P and doesn't want to bow his head anymore.

"Hey...... What does it mean, it's very simple, these market analysis reports all represent the S&P, and have nothing to do with a certain person! ”

"Huh?"

Gort couldn't help but frown.

The atmosphere around him fell into an eerie calm.

Long.

Goth broke the silence and spoke, "Zars, you'd better be clear, with the current situation, you can't stay any longer. ”

Zars smiled and didn't answer.

Well?

This made Gott a little uncomfortable, and said: "I hope you can take the responsibility, well, the company will pay you a rich severance pay." ”

"Ten million dollars!"

Zars held out a finger, shook it, and said.

Swish.

Gort's face suddenly clouded, and he refused forcefully: "Impossible! "Ten million dollars, this bastard is insane, even if he is a top market analyst at S&P, he is not worth the price. Not to mention Zars, the CEO of Wall Street does not have that much severance pay.

Just now.

He saw Zars stretch out a finger, and thought that the other party was asking for a million dollars, but he never expected that Zars, who was usually a little weak, would be so greedy.

"Well, it's a real shame that I won't take on responsibilities that don't belong to me." The asking price was rejected, and Zars was not in a hurry.

"Bastard, you did those things." Goth couldn't help but yell.

"Well, at least for now, I'm still an employee at Standard & Poor's, and everything I do is at the behest of the company, not personal...... Zars replied.

"Shameless!"

Goth gritted his teeth and said, eager to teach the other party a lesson directly, but comparing the physiques of the two sides, he rationally chose to endure.

And.

If Zars doesn't die, then the S&P who will be the most injured in the end will definitely be the S&P.

Gradually, Gort, who has gradually calmed down, begins to reacquaint himself with this greedy Zars, and he needs Zars to stand up and take responsibility for this matter.

"Whew...... You fully cooperate with S&P to get out of this crisis, and I guarantee you, you will get a generous severance pay. However, asking for $10 million is absolutely impossible. ”

"Nothing is impossible. President Gott, you have two choices, either pay $10 million in severance and I'll take all the responsibility and bear the public wrath alone. Or, do it yourself! "Zars didn't give Gort a chance to bargain.

"You ......," Goth exasperated.

"President Gott, you also have to understand the consequences of me taking full responsibility, maybe no one will want to hire me to work anymore, and I will be unemployed for a long time. Or leave the industry altogether......" Zars faced the angry Goth very calmly.

Call.

Gort suppressed his anger, and although he was extremely angry at Zars's lion opening, he also recognized what the other party said.

Think about it for a long time.

Gort chose to break the bank, and said helplessly, "Okay, you win, Zars." Just do what you ask, S&P will pay you 10 million severance pay, and you will take responsibility. However, you can't disclose this sky-high severance pay to the public......"

"Hey, I understand."

The wish was granted, and Zars was in a good mood, and then he happily took out the envelope he had prepared and threw it in front of Gort. He was not afraid of Gort's remorse.

"I'll report back to the board of directors, and once it passes, I'll pay you the money right away." Gort glanced at the envelope and knew that it was a letter of resignation, but he wasn't very interested.

"I'll wait for your good news......" With that, Zars left the office. (To be continued......)
