"My conditions, Mr. Buffett, don't you take a closer look?" Chen Zhiwen asked with a smile.

"It's not a matter of conditions, but the current state of the global economy, which is completely different from half a year ago, and I need a certain amount of time to analyze, during this time, I basically don't have any investment moves, so I won't accept foreign investment." Warren Buffett said.

"I see, I see." Chen Zhiwen nodded, after the oil crisis, the pricing power of oil prices was controlled by OPEC, and the price of oil has been above $10 a barrel, and only $3 half a year ago, this huge energy cost has made all industries in Europe and the United States flop, plus after serious inflation, the Federal Reserve has continuously raised interest rates, which has led to a sharp drop in the stock market.

However, it is also possible that Buffett simply does not want outsiders to invest, after all, for investors who are really capable, discerning and confident, they generally pick investors.

After chatting for a while, Chen Zhiwen was about to leave, but before leaving, he still said: "Mr. Buffett, there is no hope for the textile industry in the United States, the labor in the United States is too high, if you really want to save Berkshire's textile industry, you might as well consider moving them to Asia." ”

"Asia, Hong Kong?" Warren Buffett knows that Chen Zhiwen is from Hong Kong.

"Hong Kong can do it, and so can Wanwan." Chen Zhiwen smiled and said, Berkshire Hathaway is a very large textile industry, and Hong Kong is different from the OEM production of clothes and socks, Berkshire has the entire textile industry chain, at its peak in the United States with 12 factories, more than 10,000 employees, such a large textile company if it can move to Hong Kong, it will be of great help to Hong Kong's economy, although it has nothing to do with him, but he is still willing to provide higher and better employment opportunities for ordinary people in Hong Kong.

"Okay, I'll send someone to investigate, and if it's appropriate, I'll go to Asia myself, and I'll visit Mr. Chen when the time comes." Warren Buffett laughed.

"No problem, always welcome." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

Although no cooperation agreement was reached, Buffett was still more polite and personally sent Chen Zhiwen downstairs, and after arriving in the car, Angel saw that Chen Zhiwen was not displeased at all, so he asked: "Boss, this time the investment was not successful, why are you still so happy." ”

"If you don't succeed once, why be unhappy." Chen Zhiwen took a sip of red wine and said to Ron, who was sitting opposite: "Ron, during this time, I have also been keeping an eye on Buffett's investment trends, and tell me if there are any big moves." ”

"Okay, no problem." Ron agreed.

"If you have a little spare money, you can also follow Buffett's investment trends and make some money, but I don't guarantee it, you are responsible for winning or losing." Chen Zhiwen continued.

It would be nice to be able to invest in Warren Buffett, but in the 60s, after Buffett wholly acquired Berkshire Hathaway, it was privatized and not relisted until the late 80s.

This time to visit Buffett, in fact, he didn't expect Buffett to accept his investment, after all, capable people want to play their own, and he is the same, even if he wants to introduce investors, he also chooses investors from the perspective of strategy, ZZ, and network resources, and other people, even if they have money, it is impossible to accept it.

"I lost a lot some time ago, so forget it." Ron said helplessly: "I think it's safer to buy Treasury bonds." ”

"That's right, you can also have a national debt." Chen Zhiwen nodded, the U.S. base interest rate is about to rise, and the return on interest on treasury bonds is indeed good, but unfortunately this is a long-term process, in line with value preservation, not in line with leverage to invest, otherwise, Chen Zhiwen will also come to play a hand.

......

In the next week, Chen Zhiwen went to Citigroup again, to observe the acquisition of Wal-Mart shares, in general, the acquisition is relatively smooth, although Wal-Mart's performance development is very good, but the whole economic environment is very poor, inflation is serious, unemployment is high, the stock market is sluggish, under a variety of factors, Wal-Mart shares have also stagnated, Citi's covert acquisition, did not cause much volatility, but this is only now, wait until the later acquisitions, the stock market has fewer outstanding shares, a little trading volume may cause stock price fluctuationsCitibank estimates that it may take about half a year to acquire about 8%, which is basically the share that can be acquired for 50 million US dollars.

After Citi's affairs stabilized, Ron took Chen Zhiwen and his party to Chicago, where a nationally watched football game was underway, and Terry Bradshaw, who was about to endorse Red Bull, was playing here.

Chen Zhiwen also bought 6 VIP seats, very close to the arena, but after watching it for a long time, Chen Zhiwen didn't feel any interest. Ron, the Yankee, seemed very excited, usually very calm in front of Chen Zhiwen, but after arriving at the arena, he became a different person.

After the game, the group traveled to a conference room in a nearby four-star hotel with Terry Bradshaw and his team of agents, and Ron once again described the details of the collaboration in front of the two principals.

The content of this cooperation has actually been negotiated a long time ago, but Chen Zhiwen has been busy with other things, and it is only today that he has time to decide on this matter.

Chen Zhiwen listened and asked, and half an hour later, he also agreed to the cooperation agreement, 2 million US dollars, Terry Bradshaw endorsed Red Bull for three years, and three commercials could be filmed in the middle, if Red Bull held a live press conference or other live programs, Terry Bradshaw's appearance fee was 50,000 US dollars for three days.

In return, Terry Bradshaw can only drink Red Bull when he needs to drink in front of the camera, and when he participates in a football game with non-mandatory clothing, he also needs to have a Red Bull label or brand avatar printed on his clothes, and he is not allowed to drink other drinks other than Red Bull, except for purified water.

Of course, there is still freedom when it is not a game, when it is not an interview, and Red Bull also has the priority to renew the contract, and if there is another way to promote it, Terry Bradshaw also needs to cooperate.

The others are some default costs and so on, this agreement is relatively overbearing, but 2 million dollars can naturally qualify for hegemony, which is actually not low for Elvis Presley or other top sports superstars, not to mention Elvis Presley, who is not yet at his peak.

After the agreement was signed and $500,000 was paid, Elvis Presley officially became the face of Red Bull, and the Red Bull team in the United States immediately became operational, ready to expand its channel with the help of publicity.

On the other hand, Fedmart's Sol Pierce agreed to the acquisition negotiations, Ron's team began to get busy again, involving a deal of two or three hundred million dollars, which naturally took a long time, and Chen Zhiwen returned to Hong Kong early.
