Chapter 509: The Eighth Wonder of the World

Thanks to the rapid development of semiconductor technology, Bloomberg is now in urgent need of a large amount of money to expand its business, although the vast majority of securities companies in the United States have adopted the systems and hardware of Innovative Market Systems, but who doesn't want to monopolize the market and expand the market to the world?

Yang Jing invested a large amount of money everywhere, and Yang Jing's conditions were really something that Bloomberg couldn't refuse, so the conversation between the two that night immediately formed a violent chemical reaction similar to dry wood + gasoline + fire.

In just three days, in the presence of lawyers, Henry Williams signed their respective names on behalf of KY Investment Fund and Michael Bloomberg on behalf of Innovative Market Systems.

As a result, on the list of companies invested by the KY Investment Fund, there is another name of the innovative market system company.

KY Investment Fund purchased a 33% stake in Innovative Market Systems for $265.8 million in cash, making it the largest shareholder of the start-up.

Of course, the conditions promised by Yang Jing that night were also listed in the contract one by one, which is one of the main reasons why the purchase of equity went so smoothly. Mr. Bloomberg was reluctant to give up his position as the company's top manager, and Mr. Yang was able to give him the promise of keeping his position.

The matter of acquiring shares is over, and celebration is naturally indispensable.

Don't look at the innovative market system company now, but Yang Jing knows very well the horror of this company in the future. Now, while this company is just a small sampan that has just set sail, it is far less difficult to hurry up and get on board than to board the aircraft carrier formation that has developed into a unified aircraft carrier formation in the future.

Yang Jing also attended the celebration banquet in person, and it was not good for him not to attend on this occasion.

However, during the banquet, Yang Jing sat quietly in a corner of the banquet hall most of the time, drinking juice leisurely, watching the red men and green women on the dance floor dance.

"Hey, Cole, why don't you dance? I've got a lot of celebrities in here today. Bloomberg sat next to Yang Jing with a wine glass, and joked with a smile.

Yang Jing shook his head slightly, and did not answer his topic, but picked up the juice and touched it with Bloomberg, "Michael, I wish us a happy cooperation." ”

Bloomberg drank the red wine from his glass with pleasure, and then gestured to the waiter who was not far away, who came over with a bottle.

"Cole, would you like some red wine? This is '73 years of Platus, I got it through David Koch, don't you want to try it?"

"David Koch, the eldest of the Koch brothers, the super-rich man who started a chemical business?" Yang Jing did not refuse Bloomberg's kindness, and asked Bloomberg while asking the waiter to pour wine.

"Hehe, rich?" Bloomberg shook his head with a smile, "In the eyes of most Americans, the Koch brothers are very rich, but in front of you, they are nothing. However, David has a stake in Château Platus, so I can often get some good wine from him. ”

For this small sycophant, Yang Jing could only smile and wave his hand.

Mr. Bloomberg's interest was clearly high, and although he paid 33 percent of the shares, he was given such a sum of money, especially cash, which gave Mr. Bloomberg's plan a great guarantee.

"Cole, aren't you tempted by those guys?" Bloomberg asked, squeezing his eyebrows, pointing to the beautiful girls dancing on the dance floor, and his face turned a little red.

Yang Jing's eyes were attracted by one of them, "Michael, are they from the West Coast Hollywood stars, right? is Brooke Smalls, known as the eighth wonder of the world?"

Bloomberg followed Yang Jing's gaze, a tall girl with brown hair and more than 1.8 meters was dancing on the dance floor, and there were many people gathered next to her.

"What's the matter? Yes, she's Brooke Rose, one of the most beautiful flowers in Hollywood today. Oh, I think Stanley probably invited her over. James and Stanley had a good relationship, and James invited Stanley over for this celebration party. ”

"Stanley, Stanley Kubrick, that great director?" Yang Jing was a little surprised. Yang Jing still likes movies, although in the era he lived in, there were superhero movies everywhere, the truck driver did not show up for a long time, and Spielberg was no longer as brave as he used to be, but for Stanley Kubrick, Yang Jing still admired it very much.

This master director has a very high status in the history of film, and he filmed "2001: A Space Odyssey" and "A Clockwork Orange", Yang Jing watched it more than once. Although they are all pirated versions downloaded from the Internet, I have to say that this Master Stanley is really, very talented.

It's just that Kubrick died as early as 1999, and Yang Jing didn't expect to see a living person here today!

Yang Jing also knows who James is talking about, he is one of Bloomberg's main assistants, and this celebration banquet was arranged by this Mr. James.

However, Bloomberg is clearly not very interested in Stanley Kubrick, who clearly prefers Hollywood beauties to the aging Stanley Kubrick.

He poked Yang Jing's arm lightly, and nodded at another beautiful woman on the dance floor, "See, that's the new generation of actresses who have just risen in the United States, Julia Roberts, and the one next to her is Jodie Foster ......."

Hearing these two names, Yang Jing vaguely matched the two beauties who were dancing on the dance floor.

Needless to say, Julia Roberts has been popular on the Hollywood screen for 20 years, and even though she gradually retired, her niece Emma Roberts took over her banner and gradually stood out from Hollywood.

As for Jodie Foster, that's not to mention. Although her fame in Hollywood is far less resounding than that of Julia Roberts, one of her fans named John Hinckley did one thing that shocked the whole United States and the world - he almost killed Reagan with a gun and shot President Reagan, who had only been in office for 69 days!

Seeing that Yang Jing seemed to be thinking about something, Bloomberg smiled and whispered, "Which one do you like?" ”

Bloomberg is not talking nonsense, although these stars seem to be very famous, in the eyes of the real American rich class, they are really nothing, nothing more than a little more valuable and slightly more famous.

Yang Jing smiled bitterly and shook his head, this old guy is really old-hearted, although the man has forty-one flowers, but you Bloomberg are almost fifty years old, are you still so flowery?

Although these three are very famous and their looks are also very in line with the aesthetic views of Westerners, Yang Jing really has no interest. A star like this looks good from a distance, but this requires in-depth communication, and Yang Jing really doesn't have that idea.

If he hadn't reunited with Gege, he would still be a single dog now, and Yang Jing would definitely not mind having something happen to these stars. But now that the engagement rings are all on his hands, Yang Jing will never do anything to be sorry, even if it was in time and space thirty years ago.

Seeing that Yang Jing was indeed not interested, Bloomberg consciously changed the topic.

For the man in front of him, who was as steady as a Tarzan, Bloomberg was well aware of the gap between himself and him. It's not that Bloomberg hasn't investigated the KY investment fund these days, but like everyone else, the real inside story of this investment fund really can't be investigated at all.

Of course, if you really investigate ruthlessly, it is not impossible to investigate, but the key is that no one dares to investigate now.

The KY Investment Fund holds a large number of shares of 27 large companies, including some enterprises controlled by the old eight major consortia. For such a major shareholder, even President Reagan now has to be respected. If you dare to investigate such a company, as long as you dare to show such thoughts on the front foot, someone will invite you in for coffee on the back foot......

Bloomberg, who is also a billionaire now, certainly knows how terrifying the power of capital can be. He is just a billionaire with a net worth of just over 100 million, and he can already do many things that are difficult for ordinary people to do, and the master in front of him is the person who controls a huge wealth of at least 40 billion US dollars.

$40 billion, this huge wealth will have a very terrifying energy in the United States! What's more, this master's net worth must be far more than $40 billion!

It is absolutely necessary to maintain a good relationship with this master.

"Cole, are you interested in art?" Bloomberg changed the subject again, since the master in front of him was not interested in those beautiful women, let's talk about the topics he was interested in. Mr. Bloomberg had also heard that Mike Aller, the No. 2 largest shareholder of the KY investment fund, had been in and out of major auctions over the years, spending billions of dollars on a large number of works of art.

Bloomberg didn't dare to investigate Yang Jing, but he didn't have much to worry about Mike Aller, so Michael Aller's situation Bloomberg still knew very well.

This old man, who used to be just an accountant, has been able to spend so much money on various works of art over the years, and it is clear that there is a big financier behind Mike Ale. Now, when Cole Smith has surfaced, Bloomberg doesn't need to investigate to find out who the big money behind Mike Ale is.

Obviously, it is not Mike Aller who is interested in art, but Cole Smith, who is immeasurably worth in front of him.
