American Fortune Life

"If Buffett wants to complete the acquisition, we guess that he will conclude the transaction with a 30% to 40% stock price overflow that day, that is, US stocks are around 100 dollars, and Burlington North St. Duffy has 10 billion US dollars of debt, and Buffett will definitely need to bear all of it.

Then to complete this acquisition, Berkshire Hathaway will eventually need to pay 44 billion US dollars to achieve the goal. According to the information we have, Warren Buffett previously held a total of 40 billion US dollars in cash, that is, he It is almost necessary to do your best.

However, this acquisition model is definitely not a choice for both parties. The original shareholders of Northern Santa Fe Company will not choose all cash settlement. After all, Berkshire Hathaway's stock is very high-quality stock, even if Warren Buffett is unwilling to hand over Berkshire Hathaway's stock, but in order to complete the transaction will also necessarily meet the requirements of the other party, completing the acquisition in the form of a large amount of cash plus stock! "

After the meeting, Andy returned to the office, some lazily nestled in the boss chair, his hands crossed in front of him, listening to the more detailed report of Arvettele sitting opposite, and sitting on the side of Bardstone Listening quietly.

These words are what Andy thinks are the most valuable, and the most important reason why he is willing to spend money to support a think tank. To know the light collection point data and do data analysis, I am sorry that Andy gives them generously every year. The key to compensation is accurate analysis and prediction, which will provide key testimony in advance for the decision made by his boss.

"What's our purchase price?" Andy tapped his fingers at the table casually, and frowned at Al.

"70-73 dollars, spent a total of more than 900 million dollars." Bardstone on the side replied, attracted in the secondary market, or is the Liberty City investment company he led better, so these operations are Bardstone is responsible, and the specific situation is more clear.

"That is to say, when Buffett buys it, he can make four or five billion U.S. dollars ..." Andy frowned slightly dissatisfied. Although the income has been quite considerable, but Andy Smith, who is never too rich, never mind May be able to meet this benefit under the premise of knowing that you can ramble.

"What about the sniping News Corps?"

"2,173 million."

"Well, it's not much." Andy broke his mouth for a few moments, turned his attention to Bardstone, and said lightly that if the two cities of the United States and Tuao add up, this time the News Corporation shrank by 140. One billion US dollars, his own people only grabbed less than 2.2 billion US dollars, the results are really not very good.

Bardstone explained the dissatisfaction of his boss and explained with a bitter smile: "The boss, it's not just us who are short, and Murdoch used a lot of money to buy back the stock, so that News Corporation's stock price was supported. We The gains this time are already very generous. After all, the newspapers and magazines in question this time are only a small part of News Corporation and cannot give News Corporation a harder blow at all. "

Andy naturally also knows the risks of short hedging, especially if the target company still has a lot of funds to buy back stocks. This is undoubtedly a money tug-of-war. "In this way, the three million will be used for bonuses and 170 million will be hit In my personal account, the remaining 2 billion and 1 billion are used to continue to purchase shares of Northern Santa Fe Railroad Company, and the remaining 1 billion is used to continue to acquire shares of Starbucks, Qualcomm and Costco.

Since you can eat slowly, you ca n’t stop. When the broad market falls, someone will naturally lose their breath and sell their stocks. "

"Okay, boss." Bardstone nodded in response.

"That's it. I'm going to give Seattle today. For the next time, you will be in the New York business to help me stare. If there is anything, call directly." Andy instructed.

"Understand." X2

After sending off the two most effective subordinates, Andy opened the folder on the desk to look at the files, and reached out and pressed the answering machine aside, and said lightly, "Torri, you inform the Universal Music person, let Let's bring someone over ... "

After looking at the time on the watch, he continued: "Give them three hours to shoot and get them ready, don't delay my time."

"Good boss, I'll call them right away."

After releasing the answer button, Andy continued to look at the file. This time he flew to Seattle, and it took another few days. His music album has been recorded. Now there are a few mv and collection photos left.

Andy has decided not to appear in the shooting of mv, let people of Universal Music toss, but shooting propaganda posters and music covers, as well as collection photos, there is no way to be lazy.

It is very likely that this album will be his only music album. At this point, both Universal Music and Andy Smith fans have guessed, so the production of this album, Universal Music treats it with the idea of ​​creating an absolute quality product, and has collected his autographed collector's edition and commemorative edition to make money, but speechlessly, Andy's fans still eat this set very much, and they leave a lot of comments Looking forward to the release of the album.

I have to say that the fan economy can really make money easily. In this regard, Andy does not want to make his fans injustice and consume his popularity, so in order to make the fans feel value for money when buying, he also only I can spare as much time as possible to match the universal money gimmick of Universal Music. After all, Andy Smith has never been polite when it comes to sharing money.

Since he and Cheryl, Shakira perfectly performed "Fame" at White Hart Lane, Andy's album, and one of the most anticipated music albums by fans worldwide, started with "ifyou" Of the songs thrown out by Andy, almost none of them are bad songs. Although it can not be said that the first hit is hot, the absolute capital is the classic and widely sung.

Although the album has not yet been released, "Rolling Stone" magazine has predicted that Andy's album may be expected to break the record of fastest platinum sales. However, few people will question this view. What is the extent of the album's fire.

Had it not been for Andy's resolute deterrence, Universal Music would have been unscrupulously pre-sale.

Speaking of this matter, Andy is also embarrassed. His fans leave messages on his ins and Universal Pictures ’official ins and Facebook almost every day, urging the production of albums, hoping to be listed soon. Universal counts make Universal Music jealous. They don't want to sell much, so it's like starting a pre-sale directly.

Andy also knows his own affairs. The album is going to be released. I don't know if we have to wait a few months and pre-sale several months in advance. Isn't this looking for something?

Therefore, he is resolutely unwilling to agree, and the patience of fans can be slowly eroded, but once the fans are sad and feel deceived, it is fatal, and turning black to pink is an easy task.

When the Universal Music's shooting team arrived, Andy also began to cooperate very well. With Andy's status and status today, naturally he did not need to wear some fancy clothes, and found some special scenes to improve 13 grid.

What better scene than the world's richest office?

What's more, Andy feels that he is just walking away and doing a few moves at will, that's enough. Who makes him so rich!

Therefore, for a while, I supported my hands on the desk, leaned forward, my face was cold, and I felt an oppressive momentum. Then I stood in front of the sunny floor-to-ceiling window, and pinched my chin to make a thoughtful, lazy nest. In the sofa, hands crossed in front of you, looking at the distance, wandering away ...

"Perfect!" The photographer sighed, looking at the photos on the computer monitor. Andy just smiled.

"Boss, if you take some pictures of swimming, it will definitely make the fans crazy." The little assistant who looked at the picture suddenly smiled and looked at Andy, and suggested that the photographers and Universal Music staff aside His eyes were so bright that he looked at Andy with very hopeful eyes.

"Well idea!" Andy gave the young assistant a nasty look. He was the richest man in the world and a successful entrepreneur. If he took that kind of photo deliberately, he would be inferior. If the fans liked it, he would not be possible. Do things that don't match your status.

Sometimes, it ’s not his arrogance or pride, but when he has reached a certain height, he ca n’t mess around randomly. Although Andy does n’t care about other people ’s ridicule and ridicule, he really does n’t need to do it deliberately. he.

I insist on my freedom, I like my freedom, who makes me Andy Smith!
