Li Lin, who easily reached a cooperation with Steve Jobs, began to wander among many businessmen, seeking more sponsorship, because of the relationship with Universal Pictures, his capital is very active in the Hollywood investment market, so that he has a considerable part of the rights, although these are handled by Universal Pictures Group, but when needed, he can still make his own decisions.

And this is also the basis for his cooperation with these businessmen.

Modern dramas seek sponsorship from fashion, mobile phones, computers, etc., and science fiction films also seek sponsorship from fashion, mobile phones, and computer light groups, which is quite a good opportunity.

He finally understood now why Huaxia's banquets always got a response from merchants, and it was because merchants could do business with other merchants at the banquet, even if it was just to make connections.

As for the above Goldman Sachs Group's speech, he is no longer in the mood to pay attention to it, because looking at the current attitude, he knows that Goldman Sachs Group's speech is destined to be useless.

The people present are the most greedy businessmen, economists who cannot be persuaded by words, who have no responsibility to society, and only the pursuit of profit.

While Li Lin was wandering among many businessmen, Goldman Sachs' Lloyd. Blankfein finally finished his long speech, and when he saw the mere applause below, he already felt bad in his heart.

"Alright, let's talk about this proposal!"

Hearing this, Li Lin stopped his wandering, and he had already attracted sponsorship from dozens of groups for himself, although the sponsorship cost ranged from tens of thousands of dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars. But after a small amount of money, he still closed a transaction of nearly 10 million US dollars, which can be described as fruitful.

"I don't think it's necessary."

A black man was the first to speak. "Whether the Fed cuts interest rates or raises interest rates, it has no impact on the industry we are in, and as for real estate, I don't think it has much to do with us, even if the heat decreases, buyers will take out the money to buy other goods, why do we have to circle real estate?"

"Isn't there any other industry in the United States besides real estate?"

Li Lin swept over when he heard this. Look at the identity card, this is the face of a medium-ranked oil company in the United States.

The United States of America is a big oil-consuming country, and its well-developed automobile industry means that almost everyone has a car. And having a car requires oil consumption, and with what the United States of America is doing in the Middle East, the recent oil companies really don't want to live too well.

In such a situation, they don't bother to care whether the Fed raises or cuts interest rates. Anyway, it doesn't matter if it's a rate hike or a rate cut. It doesn't matter to them either.

Even better with interest rate hikes, the real estate boom wanes, and the desire of people to buy houses decreases, so that they can free up more money to buy cars and increase the consumption of oil.

So not only do they not want the Fed to cut interest rates, they want the Fed to raise interest rates, and the Fed's own will is to raise rates.

As the decision-maker of US economic policy, the Fed's every move is watched by large groups in the United States.

What it does. What you want to do, everyone knows. And the period from the thought of the release is the decisive time for these large groups to measure the gains and losses and work public relations.

Once the policy is released, it's too late.

"I also don't think it's good to lobby the Fed to cut interest rates." Another voice sounded, and a Japanese man spoke in proficient English: "Once the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates, it will certainly stimulate the increase in the heat of the real estate industry, but for other industries, it is equivalent to subsidence, after all, when people buy houses with a lot of debt, their demand for other products will naturally decrease." ”

"Do we need to fill the real estate boom with the benefits of other industries?"

"So it's better to go with the flow, I even think it's better after the real estate heat completely subsides, everyone consumes rationally, and there won't be so many bubbles."

"Sony."

The people of the two-room group gritted their teeth at the same time.

The person who spoke was none other than Sony's spokesperson.

And Sony made it clear that it was against this resolution, and it didn't even give face to Goldman Sachs.

But it's normal to think about it.

Sony has Sony's position.

Sony, which has just suffered huge losses, urgently needs to achieve a good result in the quarterly financial statements to maintain its stock price, and if it wants to achieve good results, it must pay attention to the two pillars of Sony.

One is movies, and the other is electronics.

If the Federal Reserve announces an interest rate hike and the repayment pressure on the American people increases sharply, they will no longer invest their own money in irrational real estate, but will instead spend on other small goods.

For example, movies, for example, electronics, this is an opportunity for Sony, so they are very adamantly opposed.

"Sony's people are actually members of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and it seems that it is not impossible for Sony to be westernized, so it is no wonder that among the Japanese companies in later generations, only Sony has a good life in the United States." A hint of clarity flashed in Li Lin's heart.

"I'm against it too."

In Li Lin's surprised gaze, Jobs spoke, "I don't think lobbying the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates is a good choice, the reason why the real estate industry is hot, how many bubbles are in it, everyone knows in their hearts, not to squeeze out the bubble but to blow the bubble bigger and bigger, this is the real way to die." ”

"So I'm against lobbying the Fed."

"Jobs."

There is one more object of disgust in the hearts of the people of the two-room group, but Jobs doesn't care, his apple has nothing to do with the two-room group, and he is not afraid of the two-room group at all.

"Same as against."

Li Lin spoke, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, he made his voice heard for the first time he participated in the event, "I don't think that all the resources of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce should be invested in it for the sake of a real estate industry, and now that the U.S. economy is growing strongly, there is no need for us to lobby or interfere in the economic policies of the Federal Reserve." ”

"Letting it be is the wisest choice."

Although the relationship with Sony is not very good, in terms of opposition, the two interests are the same, and he has no enemies who oppose me and so on.

In any case, as long as the Fed announces an interest rate hike, the collapse of the two-house group is a foregone conclusion, and when the subprime mortgage crisis arrives as scheduled, many of his plans can be implemented.

"Damn the Gold Group."

Li Lin was added to the people who hated the two-room group, and at the same time, they were a little desperate in their hearts, they knew the current situation of the two-room group very well.

Once the Federal Reserve announces interest rate hikes, the real estate boom subsides, and lenders cannot afford to repay their loans, their capital chain will be completely broken, and they will not be able to survive for two years.

Of course, they didn't think at all that they didn't survive for two years, but they didn't survive even a year, and at most half a year, they would turn to the government for help, and then survive for half a year with the injection of money from Wall Street, and finally collapse with a bang, detonating the subprime mortgage crisis.

"I'm against it."

"Against."

"Against."

……

A wave of opposition came over Goldman Sachs. Blank Fein looked at the opponents below, his face already pale.

"I didn't expect you to speak." Jobs squeezed through the crowd, paid tribute to Li Lin with a wine glass, and said, "I thought you would be like me, being a bystander when you participated for the first time." ”

"A bystander? Why, is there any special rule for attending a meeting of the American Chamber of Commerce for the first time? ”

Li Lin became curious.

"Not really."

Steve Jobs shrugged, "It's just that you don't think it's a sacred thing to participate in U.S. economic decision-making, even if it's just in disguise?" ”

"I was so nervous at the time, but now ...... Hehe. ”

He smiled self-deprecatingly.

To use an advertising slogan in later generations: He was nervous when he was invited to the American Chamber of Commerce, because it was such a sacred thing to participate in the decision-making of American economic policy, you can't tell me to go, I will go, I have to be ready first, so he collected a lot of information and was ready to make an impassioned statement, just like in front of the media.

But to his regret, from the beginning to the end, no one wants to speak to him, and it is the major investment banks on Wall Street that can really stand on the podium, and occasionally the major bankers make reports on them.

The truth is nothing like what he fantasized about.

"Actually, I was nervous when I came, but I saw that Sony's people were talking, so I followed along, you know, I've never dealt with Sony's people, so there's no reason why I need to be subservient." Li Lin took the report and glanced at it, "But the value of this report is quite good, the report of Goldman Sachs Group, take it out, I'm afraid the financial circle will tremble." ”

With Goldman Sachs' position on Wall Street, their report, as soon as it appears, will immediately become the target of major analysts.

According to this report, once the Federal Reserve announces an interest rate hike, the entire U.S. financial market may plummet.

"Don't be too superstitious about Goldman Sachs's analysis report, this is a warning from the old people in the financial circle to the newcomers in the financial circle, in fact, in the financial circle, the authority of Goldman Sachs Group is far less powerful than outsiders seem, they will also cheat, will also mislead investors, and have undertaken a lot of lawsuits for this, but the media has no fanfare, you have to know that Goldman Sachs Group and Time Warner have a good relationship, and the latter has the right to speak in American public opinion."

Jobs shrugged, and then grabbed Li Lin's shoulder, "Young man, are you interested in taking a stake in Apple?" (To be continued......)
