Chapter 460 [Stealing Chickens and Rice]

Today's world news is all the news of the sudden stock market crash in the United States, and the headlines on the front page are overwhelmingly reported.

When people all over the world wake up and see today's latest hot news, they are in a state of confusion, feeling as if the world has changed dramatically when they wake up, why did the stock market crash break out in North America?

The plummeting market value of Bluestar Technology has also become a hot topic among today's hotties, and everyone is hotly discussed.

……

Washington, Office of the President.

A middle-aged man in a formal suit was in the office and asked the then-president: "Mr. President, is the sanctions list against Bluestar Technology Group still announced on time and on time?" ”

This highly targeted sanctions list is more than 30 pages thick, but it is not to force Bluestar Technology to transfer its assets in North America and completely withdraw from the North American market, nor is it to dismember and spin off Bluestar Technology, because it is really difficult, at least very difficult now.

Therefore, the approach of the North American authorities is to cut off the business of Bluestar Technology in North America first, taking the cloud computing service field in the list as an example, as long as the sanctions order is issued, it will force North American enterprises to interrupt business cooperation with Bluestar Technology, especially supplier partners like IBM, the reason is of course the almighty national security.

By that time, even 10,000 of these companies would have to comply.

At the same time, the authorities have also prepared another big meal for super-giant Internet multinational groups such as Bluestar Technology, that is, to draft a 7% digital tax draft to tax the advertising services of international Internet giants such as Bluestar Technology in North America.

Mr. Ao vetoed without hesitation: "Put it on hold." ”

"Yes, Mr. President."

With the current tech stock catastrophe happening, it is not too stupid to issue this sanctions order at this time, isn't this tantamount to realizing that the stock market crash was planned by Wall Street and the North American authorities?

And the rhythm of exploding on the spot?

It's just that no one knows that they accidentally overturned, but the outside world doesn't think so.

Mr. Ao doesn't want to make any new fuss at this juncture and bring more uncertainties to his re-election campaign.

But this method can't be used for the time being, so you have to find something new, otherwise how to canvass for votes.

As a result, the strategy of returning to the Asia-Pacific region has once again been put on the agenda.

After all, as long as you say that the Chinese people are not good, you can attract more popularity.

……

Bluestar Technology Headquarters.

At this moment, Zhang Bowen was in Luo Sheng's office, and Lao Zhang talked about what had happened recently with a puzzled expression.

"I really don't understand the operation of Lao Mei, since they want to sanction my group company, their parliament was huge a few days ago, this should be just a start-up, the killing move has not been released, why did the stock market explode?"

Under normal circumstances, this may affect the market value fluctuation of Bluestar Technology, but it will not be like the current stock price crashing like a big dam, and this situation should be the introduction of substantial sanctions to make the market react in this way.

If you go wrong, you'll have a problem.

Luo Sheng shrugged: "Who knows, maybe there is an internal ghost inside Wall Street, and he is full of food by himself, regardless of the flood in the outside world." ”

Lao Zhang, who didn't know the truth, nodded silently: "There is also this possibility, and the possibility is not small, human selfishness can stand the test, but it can't stand the temptation." ”

Suddenly, Zhang Bowen said happily: "In this way, it has done us a great favor, I can boldly predict that the sanctions order in North America may be delayed, at least this year, it will definitely not be promulgated, and it will not be implemented until the rumors have subsided." ”

Luo Sheng couldn't help but nodded, obviously agreeing with Lao Zhang's analysis, and this is good news for Bluestar Technology.

"Then we will also adjust our coping strategy accordingly, anyway, when the United States has a showdown, we will start our own coping procedures. However, from this quarter, we must consciously open up sources and reduce expenditure, the company's business expansion cannot be said to be completely stagnant, but also choose to be relatively conservative, we need more cash reserves because of the future crisis. ”

Zhang Bowen nodded and said, "Understood." ”

Lao Zhang didn't know what was happening, and the real person was in front of him.

Today is the third day since the market value of Bluestar Technology exploded, and yesterday the North American authorities urgently took out $193.2 billion to inject liquidity to stabilize the collapse situation.

This is actually the result of a compromise with Wall Street, who let this unexpected event run into the election again, and hit the bone.

Otherwise, the North American authorities will certainly not come out easily to rescue the market and make Wall Street make a lot of money.

Luo Sheng asked: "How much cash is currently on the books of the group company?" ”

"1.2 trillion yuan, about 178.2 billion U.S. dollars." Zhang Bowen replied without thinking, but after a moment, he looked at Luo Sheng and suddenly asked, "Mr. Luo, are you planning to start a round of share repurchase plan?" ”

"Haha, those who know me, Zhang Bowen also." Luo Sheng said with a smile, and then nodded and added: "That's right, although Lao Mei has come out to support the market, but more is to pull other technology companies, the market value of Bluestar Technology that has risen for more than a year will basically be in vain, Wall Street's willingness to short will not change, I predict that it should bottom out at about 500 billion US dollars, regardless of whether it bottoms out or not, and the repurchase plan will be launched when it falls to this level." ”

Zhang Bowen asked directly: "How much is the repurchase?" ”

Luo Sheng replied: "About 10%, after the repurchase, it is still used as a 'treasury stock', and we can't throw too much money out, almost five or six billion US dollars, we have to leave enough cash reserves for the future to prepare for the cold winter, give up illusions, the sanctions order of the United States may be late, but it will definitely not be absent, and the management had better not have a fluke mentality." ”

Zhang Bowen nodded: "Understood, I will deal with the arrangement as soon as possible." ”

Lao Zhang didn't stay in Luo Sheng's office for too long, and after discussing it for a while, he went to deal with these things, and Luo Sheng left the company shortly after.

At this moment, domestic melon-eating netizens are also generally hotly discussed.

"Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?"

"It is said that the negative remarks made by an old American senator triggered this stock market crash."

"Really? Anyway, I don't believe it, this guy can't be a backbiter, right? How is it possible to have so much energy? ”

"This Nima's, the market value of Bluestar Technology has been cut in half, I look stupid at this number, now there are only 830 billion US dollars, and nearly 900 billion US dollars have evaporated in two days, don't tell me that it will fall."

"I feel that the whole incident seems inexplicable and very weird."

"This is definitely the biggest 'black swan' event of the year."

"According to a Reuters report, the three major stock indexes in North America have been leaking wildly, even if the United States has opened the floodgates and injected nearly $200 billion in liquidity, it has also evaporated $2.77 trillion in the past two days......

"Damn, not to mention another economic crisis? Doesn't it mean that the economic diseases of the European and American world will be reincarnated in a cycle of about ten years? It's only been three years. ”

……

As time went by, the Western Hemisphere entered the third day of the market capitalization of Bluestar Technology Group, NASDAQ opened on time at 9:30, and BTC shares still "lived up to expectations" at the opening of the sharp decline.

In less than an hour, $35 billion evaporated, and the $800 billion market value mark was lost, you must know that at the peak of the market value of Bluestar Technology, it once reached $1,678 billion.

In three days, the market value was cut in half, like the major artery was broken, and the blood still flowed.

Not a penny of liquidity injected by Lao Mei has flowed into BTC stocks, Wall Street has not come out to support the market, and it is impossible to do so, and even in the past few days, even Bluestar Technology Group, which has nearly $180 billion in cash reserves, has not taken out a penny to stabilize the company's stock price.

In fact, everyone hopes that the BTC stock price will continue to fall, except for small investors and retail investors in the market.

Today, the market began to point the finger of public opinion at the official of Bluestar Technology Group, pointing at Luo Sheng, accusing him of inaction, and the company's market value plummeted in half.

This is actually the result of the North American authorities and Wall Street vigorously creating public opinion behind the scenes, trying to put pressure on Bluestar Technology and Luo Sheng.

However, Luo Sheng was still indifferent, and just asked Zhang Bowen to accept a telephone interview with CNN TV in North America late this night, revealing to the outside world that the company is urgently discussing the response mechanism, as for how to deal with it and when it will be implemented.

Didn't you say that you were urgently studying and discussing, so why panic...

It has only fallen below the $800 billion mark, so don't worry, fall for a while.
