Chapter 180: New Industries

On October 21, the New York Stock Exchange sold more than 6 million shares throughout the day;

On October 24, the beginning of the stock market disaster, the famous "Black Thursday" in history, several major banks in New York quickly formed a "rescue fund" in the hope of turning the tide;

On October 28, known as "Black Monday", the Dow Jones index fell by 13%;

On October 29, the most famous "Black Tuesday" in history, the Dow Jones index plummeted, and the stock market set an all-time high of 16.41 million shares traded on that day.

In just two weeks, from October 29 to November 13, 1929, $30 billion in wealth disappeared, equivalent to the total U.S. expenditure in World War I.

Looking at this series of numbers and analysis in the newspaper, Doris sighed with palpitations: "Fortunately, I didn't buy many stocks in the end, otherwise I would have gone crazy now!" ”

"I told you so much in advance, you shouldn't have bought a single share!" Monet on the side said angrily.

"Oh, people know it's wrong, my current money has been obediently used to buy gold, don't be angry, okay!" Doris said coquettishly, and as she spoke, she began to lick Monet's earlobe with her little tongue and rub her hand downward.

After the "anger" was vented, Monet patted Doris's plump fingerprints, and then got up and ordered: "I shouldn't have much time to come over recently, you stay well!" ”

"Tired of me so soon?" Doris sneered.

"What! Now that the economy is sluggish, I need to look at what new projects to invest in! Monet explained.

Thinkers

"You said that now that the economy is in a recession, what other projects are worth investing in?" Doris asked, puzzled.

"You don't understand this, as long as it's not the end of the world, then no matter what the situation, there is a profitable business, it depends on whether you can find it!" After saying that, Monet left refreshed.

In fact, Monet still has a general plan in his heart, that is, he plans to continue to invest in films, because previous economic crises have verified this, when the economy is in a recession, the entertainment industry, especially the film and television industry, will usher in prosperity, because everyone needs a spiritual sustenance, so Monet plans to go to the two film companies in which he has a stake, Warner and Disney.

Just when Monet was thinking about what movie to propose to make that would be popular, he suddenly found that the car had stopped, and then Chu Zhan turned around and explained to him: "Boss, there is a disturbance in front of you and the road is blocked, let's change the road!" ”

"Okay, let's change! By the way, who's making trouble? Monet asked casually.

Chu Zhan got out of the car and took a look, then replied, "It's a condom factory worker asking for wages!" ”

"Condom factory? Is it still profitable to sell condoms in this situation? Monet scoffed, but then he reacted, yes, it's only the early stage of the economic crisis, and it's not yet time for Durex to make a lot of money, so it seems that investing in this industry is not bad.

Just when Monet recalled the history of Durex's rapid development under the economic crisis, Chu Zhan replied: "It seems that their boss lost money by trading stocks, hey, now there are too many people who have lost money because of this, and there are even a lot of people who jump off the building!" ”

"Chu Zhan, you don't have to send me, I'll drive over by myself, you stay and ask me about the situation of this factory, the more detailed the better!" Monet commanded.

Although Chu Zhan didn't understand Monet's intentions, he still agreed, and immediately got out of the car and started to inquire.

When Monet came back from Warner and Disney, Chu Zhan reported to him: "Boss, the operation of this Roy condom factory is actually quite good, but because the current boss is Roy Jr., the son of the old Roy who started the business before, this guy was originally a playboy, and he was also obsessed with stock speculation in the previous period, and invested all the working capital in the factory in the stock market, but all of them were hedged this time, so he couldn't pay for raw materials and workers' wages." ”

Monet nodded and agreed, "Well, it's similar to what I heard from Sheriff Klein, so does he have the idea of selling the factory?" ”

Chu Zhan thought for a moment, and then replied, "It should be possible, after all, he owes a bunch of debts now!" ”

"Then you give him a call, and if he means so, I'll talk to him tomorrow!" Monet commanded.

After Chu Zhan received the order, Catherine, who had just made him coffee, closed the office door and sat down in his arms skillfully and asked curiously, "Tony, do you really want to buy this condom factory?" ”

Monet nodded and replied, "yes, what's wrong?" ”

"But now that the economy is so sluggish, everyone is shrinking investment, you buy a factory at this time, and it is an industry that you have never been exposed to before, can this work?" Catherine questioned.

Monet explained: "Of course it works, think about it, when is it?" This is the financial crisis, the Great Depression, at this time ordinary people can't even eat, do you think they dare to have children again? It's clear that I can't afford to raise it when I am born! But how can you guarantee that you won't have children? Don't men and women do that kind of thing anymore? It can't be! What about going to be sterilized? Let's not talk about whether ordinary people have the determination to do it, even if they want to do it, this high cost is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Condoms are different, this thing is cheap, effective and convenient, so it will naturally become everyone's first choice. And now everyone has no money in their hands, and they can't go out to spend time like before after work, so they can only go home and stay, so you say that there is no other entertainment at home at night, what can you do? Naturally, it can only be a pa, and if you don't want a child this papapa, you can only use a condom. So, how could I not make money, you say? ”

"But, but, ......" Catherine wanted to refute but didn't know what to say, because she found that although Monet's explanation was extremely crooked, you can't help but admit that what he said was very reasonable, and the logical reasoning was very clear, and finally she had to snort and say: "Hmph, this kind of fallacy can only be thought of by a playboy like you!" ”

Seeing Catherine's coquettish appearance, Monet's heart was moved, so he kissed it......
