Back to 1995

"I have never seen this kind of scene. All Wall Street institutions, investment banks, major investment funds and investors all over the world want to buy a stock, but no one sells a share, even if its The stock price has reached $320, making it one of the most expensive stocks on the Nasdaq exchange!"

Half an hour after the Nasdaq opened, facing the media and reporters who came to interview, an analyst from a securities company said helplessly to the media.

After the opening of the market, a rare scene in the history of American stocks appeared in front of everyone, and the buying of ICQ stocks has exceeded more than 60 billion dollars, basically all of which are large institutions, investment banks, and pension companies in various states of America. Funds and other well-known overseas investment institutions have also entered the market one after another, all rushing to raise ICQ stocks.

When everyone has the same idea and thinks that something is very valuable, then it will become priceless, and countless people want to buy it, but those who own it will not sell it!
ICQ stock is like this now. Everyone knows that buying ICQ stock at the current price will definitely make a lot of money. Numerous institutions and investors are rushing to raise funds like crazy, and those who hold ICQ stock also know that at this time ICQ stock is the price of cabbage, so naturally it will not be sold for life or death, high or low...

The seller and the buyer reached an agreement, and a rare scene appeared on Nasdaq. Within half an hour, no ICQ stock was traded, and the tens of billions of dollars in the rush to raise funds made ICQ stock The price has soared from $260 to $320, a 23% increase!

You know, ICQ is now considered an elephant stock, with a market value of up to 1300 billion US dollars. A company with this market value usually rises by 5%, which is considered an elephant dance, but ICQ has reproduced the first day of listing today. Stock prices skyrocketed.

It wasn't until the price rose above $340, which was close to the price of new ICQ stocks received by Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, etc., that there were finally sporadic transactions of selling ICQ stocks!
Today, the entire Nasdaq, as well as Wall Street institutions, are basically focused on ICQ, and have never left half a step. The entire Internet concept stocks, led by ICQ, set off a massive onslaught.

Internet stocks such as Yahoo, AOL, Lycos, Excite, and Amazon all rose sharply across the board, and even Microsoft rose 8%.

As for General Electric, Comcast Group, Telephone and Telegraph Group, etc., which are related to this large ICQ merger and acquisition, the stock prices have soared all the way. The position of 4000 billion U.S. dollars has launched a sprint, and the mood of the General Electric board of directors is probably only understood by themselves...

Affected by the great merger, global media stocks are all on the lookout. Media stocks in the European stock market rose by more than 10% across the board, followed by Hong Kong stocks, Singapore, Japanese benzene stock markets, Bangzi, and domestic big A, etc., as long as you follow the media The stocks that are attached to each other are the most beautiful boys in the market today!
Since the opening of the market in the morning, Wall Street analysts basically have no interest in watching the market. They don’t need to look at it. They can also think that today is another day when technology stocks are soaring. Countless leeks will rush in waving banknotes Send performance for them, the kind that can't be stopped.

"The aircraft carrier of New Era Media, the merger and acquisition of ICQ, constitutes the media industry in America and even the world, the most powerful galaxy battleship in history, the perfect integration of the Internet and media, this is a peaceful transition of power, just like The oath between the new god and the old god!"

The New York Times reported in gorgeous words that this marriage is the most important merger and acquisition in the history of the media industry. It has resolved the war between the Internet and traditional media. The war, on the contrary, created the most powerful media empire in history.

The editor-in-chief of the New York Times wrote at the end, "The merger of ICQ with NBC Group and Comcast Television Network will be a beginning. In the future, more Internet companies will choose to marry with media giants. , a new round of big mergers and acquisitions is coming!"

"$2890 billion, Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank made estimates for the merged ICQ. A merger established one of the top ten market capitalization companies in America. This is the biggest show in the history of Wall Street. Cheers!"

The Wall Street Journal also made a report on the front page, but they did not fully sing their praises. They implicitly expressed their concerns about the future of ICQ, "The Internet and the media are two completely different models. We certainly hope that they can be perfectly integrated, but The power of habit is terrible. Whether ICQ can change the habits of ICQ, NBC Group, and Comcast TV network is the biggest test ICQ will face next!

In addition, we need to congratulate the birth of the new richest man in America and the richest man in the world, Bruno Song, the youngest richest man ever! "

The meaning of the Wall Street Journal is very clear. Now, looking around, the media industry has no rivals to ICQ, and the only one that can defeat it is itself.

Fortresses are often breached from the inside by their own people. ICQ now seems to be strong enough. What lies ahead for ICQ is to solve its own internal problems, so that ICQ's Internet business can compete with NBC Group, Comcast, etc. If the special TV network can be integrated, if it can be done, then ICQ will be the leader of the global media industry. If it can't be done, then it will fall apart...

In addition to reporting on this, which can be included in the world's largest merger and acquisition case, countless media are also reporting on the people related to this merger and acquisition.

Immelt is of course one of the "protagonists". The Washington Post, one of the top ten newspapers in America, a media closely related to General Electric, praised Immelt wildly.

"Is anyone still worried about the next head of GE?
Today, we can announce that the greatest professional manager in the history of America has been born. He is the candidate head of General Electric and the chairman of ICQ. He is one of the most powerful men in the history of America!

More importantly, Immelt did not choose to be satisfied. He was still looking for ICQ to make up for the last shortcoming. Just like Welch, he never gave up on making General Electric even greater! "

The media also needs a meal. General Electric spends a huge amount of advertising expenses every year. No one wants to offend GE and not get advertising fees. At this time, it is natural to show hospitality.

Words such as "America's No. 7000 professional manager", "one of the most powerful men on the surface of the earth", "the man in charge of a [-] billion empire" and so on have all been worn by the media on Immelt.

Even at this time, Welch has not really retired, but the crown on his head has been taken off by the media, crowning Immelt!
Everyone can understand that no one can stop Immelt from taking over General Electric, not even Welch. It took Welch most of his life to bring the market value of General Electric to 3000 billion US dollars. As for Walter, it only took one night!

As a person who created a company with a market value of 3000 billion US dollars for General Electric, Immelt is qualified enough to take over the position of the head of General Electric, just like Napoleon, wearing the crown by himself without the gift of others. Welch is useless to him...

Even the commander-in-chief was asked about his views on the ICQ merger during today's routine media meeting.

"This is one of the most exciting news I've heard today. Immelt has done it. America needs a media with a strong voice. ICQ obviously is!"

The new telecommunications bill is one of the achievements of the great commander. Now that such a media monster has been born, he certainly cannot say bad things, but he must praise it vigorously.

As for the question from the media, whether big media groups such as ICQ will use their power to influence public opinion in the future is ignored by the commander in chief. Whether the influence is good or bad, it has nothing to do with him.

And seeing that the general election is coming, ICQ, a big media group that can affect countless people, is the media that both the Donkey Party and the Elephant Party are fighting for support. It cannot be said that ICQ affects the outcome of the general election, at least, it can affect the choice of countless votes !
Compared with other old-fashioned media, ICQ is very special. Traditional old-fashioned media such as NBC and Comcast TV Network all support the donkey party, but the founder of ICQ is the big sponsor of the elephant party. Now The status of ICQ is very special. Whether it supports the donkey party or the elephant party is worth deliberating.

Anyway, now both the Elephant Party and the Donkey Party have expressed their support for the great merger of ICQ. Many masters on Capitol Hill have praised this great merger, and they don't want to push ICQ to the opposite side.

There are many media that praise Immelt. San Jose, Houston, Texas and many small and medium-sized media of Italian, Chinese, and Irish origin tout the news that Song Yang has become the new richest man in America. And after the completion, Song Yang's social status on paper has completely surpassed Bill Gates. When the next wealth list is updated, Song Yang's ranking will appear in front of Bill Gates.

"Ms. Irene is the representative of American women in the new era!"

This is the wife of the Grand Commander. Regarding the evaluation of Irene, almost all major female newspapers, magazines, and various fashion media today, American female representatives, Hollywood actresses, etc., all praise Irene. A female head of a company with a market value of 3000 billion US dollars, this alone is enough to make Irene the number one female professional manager in America.

In a huge farm, John Naron, the president of TCI Television Network, drank coffee and picked up a newspaper to read in his vacation home. The farm where he is located has more than 20 acres of land around him. , On the boundary markers, there are engraved words of private land, all of which belong to him. He still owns millions of acres of such land. John Malone is already one of the largest landowners in America.

When he saw in the newspaper that Comcast Television Network merged with ICQ at a price of 450 billion dollars, John Malone sighed and knew that a new era had finally arrived.

Picking up the phone, John Malone said to the person on the other side of the phone, "Tell the Telephone and Telegraph Group that TCI agrees to the acquisition plan!"
