Chapter 273 [The world is crowded, all for profit]

With Lehman Brothers declaring bankruptcy and the financial tsunami triggered by the United States sweeping the world, the headlines around the world are now four words – financial crisis.

Or another major news is the news of various interest rate cuts and bailouts of major banks.

All of a sudden, the world was overshadowed by the financial tsunami that swept through North America, and almost everyone inevitably had a tragic picture of the Great Depression of the 30s at this time.

……

At the end of September, the Science and Technology Complex Building.

At this moment, Luo Sheng and An Qingxue support each other, simulating offensive and defensive drills, this is a contest between attack and defense, is a protracted battle, Luo Sheng personally led countless elite soldiers to launch fierce attacks on the opponent's city gate again and again, repeatedly, and his momentum is like a rainbow, even if he fights until dawn, he will not stop if he does not break this city.

But at this time, a phone call suddenly came over at night, which made Luo Sheng very unhappy, why has he been on the phone all the time recently?

Annoying stroke.

Luo Sheng picked up the phone and wanted to hang up directly, but when he saw the caller ID, he had to temporarily withdraw his troops.

"Shh~"

Luo Sheng made a silent gesture, and then connected the phone.

The caller was Zhang Bowen, who had arrived in the United States three days ago, and Bluestar Technology Group needed an important person in the United States to start the process of repurchasing shares, so as to avoid the impact of jet lag.

After all, the current situation is an hour's time difference, and it can change dramatically.

As soon as the phone was connected, Zhang Bowen's voice changed into Luo Sheng's ears.

"Mr. Luo, is the telephone communication reliable?"

Hearing this, Luo Sheng motioned to An Qingxue to help him bring a notebook, but for a moment, Luo Sheng operated on it for a while, and then replied: "I have encrypted the communication channel, it is safe and reliable, let's talk about something quickly." ”

Zhang Bowen seemed to hear from these words that most of the top bosses had something, so he got straight to the point: "I just received reliable news here, the U.S. House of Representatives vetoed the $700 billion bailout plan, resulting in a sharp drop in each share, the Dow Jones index surged 777 points, the largest decline in history, a single-day decline of as much as 7%, and the largest decline since the global stock market crash in 1987......."

Just days after Lehman Brothers declared bankruptcy, North American authorities submitted a bill to Congress to save the financial system, and the Treasury Department would be authorized to purchase up to $700 billion in non-performing home-backed mortgage assets.

Americans hope to solve all the problems in about two years to achieve economic recovery, and they hope to solve the problem before it affects a large area or even a full impact on the real economy, so as to avoid the tragedy of the Great Depression like the 30s of the last century.

Just last week, G7 finance ministers held telephone consultations with the presidents of the major banks, and the result was that the other G7 members refused to participate in the US financial rescue plan.

Subsequently, the largest savings and loan bank in the United States was seized and taken over by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation of North America, becoming the largest bank in the United States to fail in history. After that, as Zhang Bowen said just now, the House of Representatives of the United States vetoed the 700 billion bailout plan.

Luo Sheng thought for a moment and replied decisively: "Don't wait any longer, this is the last good opportunity, these 700 billion US dollars...... I estimate that Lao Mei should still open the floodgates and immediately announce the repurchase plan, and the $11.5 billion will complete all the transactions in the last three days, preferably in one day. ”

Zhang Bowen: "Understood. ”

The U.S. House of Representatives has just vetoed this bailout plan, but Luo Sheng knows that this plan will still be passed in the end, there is no way, it must be saved, and if it is not saved, if it deteriorates into a depression like the 30s, it will become more serious, and the financial crisis he has caused will swallow this bitter fruit with tears.

As soon as the communication ended, Luo Sheng threw his mobile phone aside, and the battle resumed.

Countless elite soldiers were introduced to attack the city again, passing through a line of natural danger, this place is really Xiongguan, and the road is exhausted and ten thousand people are not open, but Luo Sheng, who has experienced a hundred battles, is not afraid at all, and he is single-handedly driving straight into the tiger's den.

After surviving a line of natural danger, the other party set up an ambush here, and adopted a water attack strategy with its terrain, intending to catch turtles in an urn.

At that time, he did not stop under the monstrous flood, and even attacked Luo Sheng from both sides.

After a hundred battles, there are times when the car overturns, Luo Sheng was careless, and finally hundreds of millions of elite soldiers were wiped out here.

Luo Sheng recuperated and recuperated, intending to regroup, fight again, and fight and defeat.

Failure is not terrible, but giving up is shameful.

……

It is said that it is now big night in the eastern hemisphere, and it is daylight in the western hemisphere, Zhang Bowen is in New York at the moment, and after ending the telephone communication with Luo Sheng, he is not idle, and the repurchase funds have already been divided into multiple accounts, as long as he says a word, the transaction can start immediately.

Half an hour later, under the leadership of Zhang Bowen, he held an impromptu press conference in Manhattan, New York, on behalf of Bluestar Technology Group, and officially announced that the company would spend $11.5 billion to start the buyback process.

At the same time as he made this announcement, funds from dozens of trading accounts began to pour into the stock market, harvesting "BTC" shares in a big way.

As soon as the news was revealed, the trading code of "****TC" immediately rebounded, and the stocks, which had been falling sharply, suddenly rose against the trend.

Many people who received the news took action as soon as possible, intending to make a lot of money.

When the stock sells, the stock price falls; Otherwise, it will rise, which is the basic law of the market.

But this is a test of the trader's ability, and for speculators who make quick money, blood gains and losses may only determine the outcome in a matter of seconds.

This is the first time that the Bluestar Technology Group has repurchased shares since its listing, and it is a large-scale repurchase, with a huge amount of $11.5 billion invested in the stock market.

But at this time, all of a sudden, Lao Mei felt that Luo Sheng was still so pleasing to the eye.

Although the amount of more than 10 billion yuan does not play a decisive role in the financial system that is currently in serious trouble, it certainly has a role.

In fact, other funds have been leveraged in.

Without him, many people can't understand Luo Sheng's operation, this time he actually went against the trend, and he couldn't understand it from the outside world, giving people the feeling that he was acting like a car on his mantis arm, but he couldn't stand him laughing to the end again and again.

$11.5 billion smashed in, Bluestar Technology Group successfully repurchased 9.67% of the shares, about 150 million shares, the repurchased shares were not cancelled, but retained to become the company's "treasury shares", at the same time, Zhang Bowen also disclosed at the media conference that this part of the repurchased shares will be used for including but not limited to the company's employee benefits and incentive plans, or emergency use.

It's just a response to the outside world, and the board of directors has the final say on what to do, and Luo Sheng of the board of directors has the final say.

At the after-hours trading price of the day, Bluestar Technology Group's "BTC" stock rose from $68 per share to $81.82, and the market value was pushed all the way up to $118.6 billion.

At its peak, it hit $83.55 per share.

Obviously, some people have made a lot of money by speculating in stocks during this time period, and some people must have lost money in blood, and the market cannot make money, and if you make money, you must lose money.

However, it doesn't matter to Bluestar Technology Group, no matter how turbulent the financial market is or returns to normal, after Bluestar Technology completes the repurchase plan, the next thing to do is to develop steadily.

As for the disturbances here, you don't need to mix it anymore, and you don't need to pay too much attention to it.

……

Wall Street, an informal meeting within Goldman Sachs.

In a European-style room, Goldman Sachs' then-head Lloyd Blank Vanne, group president Gary Cohen and co-chief operating officer Jon Winkreed gathered here.

"There are no parameters to analyze, and there are no mathematical models to refer to, but this is what is happening, he spent $11.5 billion to buy back shares, and Goldman Sachs followed up with 26 million shares." Jon Winkred shrugged.

Right now, what they are talking about is about Luo Sheng and about the repurchase of Bluestar Technology Group.

This is a big event-driven effect in the international financial market.

Winkred added with emotion: "This young Chinese IT giant is really unique, the best analysts on Wall Street can't figure him out, a series of actions are so abnormal, no matter how you analyze and research, how much data and information you collect, you can't study what is really going on in his head, but without exception he wins, this is the most amazing place." ”

It is precisely because of the inability to see through Luo Sheng and the fact that he is always a winner, which led to Goldman Sachs Group also following the "risk" to spend $2 billion this time, for this Wall Street capital predator group that is thunderous in the industry, the internal think tank lineup is extremely strong, but this investment to follow Luo Sheng seems to be a little blind, and it is really a hurry to follow Luo Sheng's wind.

There is no way, Luo Sheng's previous record is too strong, and the return is even more eye-catching, this time he played so big, Goldman Sachs was afraid of losing money, but he missed the opportunity again.

In fact, not only Goldman Sachs, but most institutions on Wall Street are studying Bluestar Technology Group at the moment, and this round of buyback plan gives people the most obvious intuitive message, that is, Luo Sheng firmly believes that his company will be able to return to the top and even create greater brilliance in the future.

It's easy to understand, otherwise what would he do with spending more than $10 billion to buy back shares in the company? A move to revive the confidence of the market and investors?

Don't be funny, a fool will believe this.

You can spend other people's money at will, but it's not the same to spend your own money, not to mention that Luo Sheng not only spends his own money, but also has a large amount of money to borrow, so there must be other reasons in it.

In the eyes of Wall Street, Luo Sheng is a shrewd person who is not much like them, and there must be some money in it.

"I'm more interested in where the money he used to cash out goes?" The head of Goldman Sachs suddenly spoke.

"Our people have been investigating, trying to find out where his money is going, but so far we haven't figured out ......," Cohen said helplessly, there are many ways for a super-rich person to deliberately hide his legitimate wealth, and it is very difficult to find out where the specific flow is going, because the vast majority of rich people will do this.

And there are some things that you can get even if you know how to do it, but no one dares to touch it, because touching it means touching the vested interests of countless people.

So there are some things that everyone has reached a tacit consensus, whoever touches it, the person who touches it must be the first to die.

No one wants to be a martyr, this is the inevitable result of human selfishness.

"It's not for nothing, we still have a low-key visit to New York last year, and our investigation found that he had been in contact with several major hedge funds, but we don't know exactly what he did, and those hedge funds refused to give us more information." Cohen added.

As soon as these words came out, Lloyd Blank Vann was immediately very interested, and asked succinctly: "Which fund?" ”

Cohen was quick to say: "It was the Paulson hedge fund that made a lot of money from the subprime mortgage crisis, and more than a dozen other investment funds. ”

When Luo Sheng first came to New York, although he only handed over the money to two funds, he actually met more than a dozen investment funds during his ten-day trip to the United States.

Everyone looked at each other, Cohen's answer moved the head of Goldman Sachs, and Jon Winkred was shocked: "God, don't tell me he even predicted this?" I don't believe it! I absolutely don't believe it! I don't believe it if I die! Only God can do this kind of thing! And we are all mortal! ”
