Back to 1995

Chapter 679
Anyway, if you close your mouth, you can say anything from the analysts of Goldman Sachs.

According to this logic, ICQ's splitting of Xueleshan is not only not a bad thing, but a good thing. It shows that ICQ is a completely neutral company that does not favor any party. Fang left it and was finally killed by Microsoft.

ICQ has a social empire and can provide traffic for other companies. Just selling traffic and advertisements, ICQ can make a lot of money!

As soon as Goldman Sachs' analysis report came out, it showed that it would not short ICQ, and class action lawsuits were naturally impossible. As soon as Goldman Sachs made a statement, other Wall Street institutions followed suit. Robinson and other vulture law firms wanted to sue ICQ collectively. There is no way to talk about it.

Affected by Goldman Sachs, without the influence of the high-priced claims, the stock price of ICQ rose instantly!

Irene Doherty, who just came out of the newly purchased villa manor, drove towards Song Yang.

Irene returned to Houston after Christmas. After returning to Houston, Irene received a lot of invitations, not only for various gatherings and party invitations in Houston, but also for being the most powerful member of the Doherty family. Characters, upon hearing the news of Irene's return, all members of the Doherty family also came.

If you think about the situation in the Bruno family, you can imagine what the Doherty family is like. As the head of ICQ, too many people want to have something to do with Irene.

Irene looked back at the new manor where family gatherings were still held. This manor was newly purchased by her. It used to be the manor of an old white rich man. It is much easier for the old white rich men in Liga to accept Irene than Song Yang.

In the past few years, the city of Houston did not seem to have changed much. The urban area slowly expanded outwards. It may take many years to see its changes, but the changes of the Doherty family are visible to the naked eye.

Irene doesn’t need to mention it. It took less than five years for Eileen to become the head of a $400 billion technology giant from an intern who graduated from the University of Houston. Many of her contemporaries are I am still studying for a master’s and doctoral degree. Every year, the University of Houston invites Irene to give a speech at her alma mater. Of course, it’s definitely not for the donation of more than one million U.S. dollars each year…

Irene's father, Robert Dougherty, became a member of the Houston Councilor as a member of the Donkey Party. He is now the boss of the Houston Health Department and is already the most important member of the Donkey Party in Houston.

The Dougherty family can't be said to be a wealthy family, but they are definitely considered upstarts in Houston!

The car passed the Houston Harbor all the way, and saw the sign of the double-click headquarters building in the distance. The building that the double-click company had just established had been bought by the double-click company and became the headquarters of the double-click.

Irene remembers the scene when she went to Double-click for the first time. The office floor was empty, with only a few tables and chairs and a special person. Irene can't tell now. Double-click company, is it really optimistic about Double-click, or is it because of other reasons.

As soon as she stepped on the accelerator, the car quickly passed the headquarters building of Double-click Company. Now Irene still holds the title of director of Double-click Company, but it has nothing to do with Double-click. Now Double-click belongs to Whitman, and Irene cares Also ICQ.

"What the hell is Goldman Sachs trying to do?"

After arriving at Song Yang's residence, Irene asked Song Yang directly. Of course, it was in the living room of the villa. As soon as Irene came, Jenny became attentive, making coffee and cutting fruit salad. Anyway, I won't leave the living room.

For Jenny's little tricks, Irene saw everything in her eyes, but she just smiled from the bottom of her heart, and didn't say much. She didn't think about competing with Jenny for any status, and even if she wanted to fight, she was fighting for other things!
"Jenny, your craft is getting better and better!"

Irene took a sip of coffee, praised Jenny, and then looked at Song Yang.

Even if Goldman Sachs doesn't help ICQ this time, Eileen doesn't care, as long as the news of ICQ's merger with American Telecom is thrown out, everything will disappear.

Those institutions and investors are all bears. With watermelon, who remembers Sesame, maybe Xuele Mountain will be very valuable in the future, but now, ICQ merged with American Telecom, which is much more exciting than a Sierra Mountain game!

Song Yang also took a sip of coffee. The bitter taste made the corners of Song Yang's mouth twitch uncontrollably. Then he looked up and saw Irene with a smile on her lips. Jenny, she smelled a faint smell of gunpowder.

Coughing, Song Yang pushed the coffee aside, "There are no random things in the world. No matter what Goldman Sachs wants to do, this rescue is not a bad thing for ICQ. The merger also needs Goldman Sachs support!"

ICQ's merger with American Telecom is, to put it bluntly, a cash-out. Song Yang can cash out a lot of dollars with his left hand and right hand, but the valuation after the merger also needs the support of Wall Street. Otherwise, Goldman Sachs and other Wall Street institutions are unanimously pessimistic. Wouldn't that merge a loneliness.

Wall Street is not a good thing. There are all kinds of disgusting things, but sometimes, you can't do without it.

While talking, Song Yang's cell phone rang suddenly. After seeing the phone number, Song Yang couldn't help laughing, "It's Pellet Greene!"

"Song," Pellet Greene's voice came from the phone, "I heard that ICQ has encountered a little trouble recently, but Goldman Sachs has always been on your side!"

"Thank you, President Paulson, for me!"

Hearing that Song Yang accepted this love, Pellet Greene smiled, and after a few words, he finally said, "Song, you know, Goldman Sachs has always supported you, no matter in the past or in the future, it will So, of course, Goldman Sachs also hopes to have a deeper cooperation with Song you!"

Hearing this, Song Yang gradually figured out what Goldman Sachs was thinking. After thinking about it for a while, Song Yang asked straight to the point, "What does Goldman Sachs want?"

"Xueleshan, Goldman Sachs wants to invest in Xueleshan, and solve those public opinion troubles for ICQ..."

"Siere Mountain can accept investment from Goldman Sachs, and Manager Greene can talk to Ken Williams."

Originally, Pellet Greene felt that it might take a lot of work, but who knew that Song Yang agreed directly when he just opened his mouth, which made him swallow those soft and hard rhetoric abruptly. , He felt uncomfortable for a while.

It is impossible for Xueleshan to stop at the current point. In the future, it will acquire game manufacturers in other overseas regions and sell the games to other overseas regions, just like the "Grand Theft Auto" that Rockstar is developing. The scale is too big. If there is no Wall Street support, it is likely to be banned in some places!

Wall Street has great powers, and with the support of Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank and other Wall Street institutions, Sierra can sell games all over the world. Now, taking advantage of the heat, it sells a part of its shares to Goldman Sachs, and it will be a slap in the face!

"President Greene, there is one more thing. I hope you can tell President Paulson that ICQ may have several large acquisitions and transactions this year. I hope that President Paulson can support it. Of course, Goldman Sachs will be ICQ's One of the organizers of the acquisition and merger!"

Song Yang's voice was not high, but it sounded like a thunderbolt to Pellet Greene's ears, which made him startled. He was a little lucky now that he didn't say the threat just now, otherwise, if Goldman Sachs Missing the merger of ICQ, Pellet Greene couldn't imagine what would happen to him, Paulson would definitely tear him up!
Taking a few deep breaths, Pellet Greene calmed himself down. He is also a person who has experienced big storms, but for some reason, hearing the merger from Song Yang's mouth always made him feel frightened.

"I will definitely tell President Paulson, Song," Pellet Greene deliberately relaxed his tone, and asked Song Yang tentatively, "I don't know which company ICQ wants to merge with?"

"America Telecom!"

Regardless of the reaction of Pellet Greene on the other end of the phone, Song Yang hung up the phone. For such a large merger and acquisition, ICQ is not begging Goldman Sachs, but Goldman Sachs and its organizations should come and let ICQ Give them a piece of the pie.

"Is ICQ going to start announcing the news?" Seeing Song Yang hang up the phone, Irene couldn't help asking.
