"Gentlemen, things may not turn out as we expected. Tonight I will find a way to have a good chat with the gentlemen of the consortium and see if I can get some help from them. I think The gentlemen of the consortium will not be willing to see the country on the other side stretching out its hand here. So maybe tomorrow, maybe tomorrow we can meet some turning points."
"I hope. Your Excellency, let's stop here for today. We need to think about what to do next."
Although this is one person's answer, it is the thinking of most people.And this kind of thinking almost means that they already have the intention to quit in their hearts.As they said before, losing General Electric, although they also lost a lot of wealth, but this does not take away everything from them.They have other assets, and those assets are enough to maintain their glamorous life.
And if the enemy on the opposite side is annoyed by the General Electric matter, causing him to start an all-round attack here, they are not sure that the assets under them will not be reduced to the same level as General Electric .That is the fatal thing, so instead of continuing the confrontation like this, more people are just thinking about how to stop.
Whether it is to admit defeat to any country, or to sell the shares in their hands to others, this is their choice.
The major shareholder knows the little things in these people's hearts, because he may not have had such thoughts himself.But in the end, interests are still at work. If he does that, the interests he will lose will be too heavy, so he can't make the same choice as them anyway.This is why he has been jumping up and down to encourage other shareholders to persevere, because he knows that if these guys run away, he will be even less likely to be an opponent.
It can be said that at this time he almost pinned his last hope on the consortium.In order to get help from the consortium, he wrapped the best gift and drove to the Morgan family's mansion in person.
Although the Morgan family has long since ceased to be as prosperous as it used to be, it has begun to prosper abnormally during this period of time.He took back many shares of the company, and even said that he has a decisive force in the entire consortium.Although such a situation is not what many people would like to see, but since he has risen again, such a person can only hold his nose and admit it.
And now the idea of the shareholders is to get help from the Morgan family.Anyway, his reputation is here.The descendants of the founder of the Morgan consortium, coupled with his huge power today, are enough to give him a lot of voice in the entire consortium.And if he can get his help, then maybe he can have the hope of overcoming the current difficulties.
This is not an easy task, but it is also the only possibility he can think of.So in order to impress old Morgan, he sent over the best oil paintings in his collection.
One of Monet's water lilies, the major shareholder collected this treasure at a price of nearly 2000 million, but now they want to give it away with a humble attitude.To be honest, he was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do.If he didn't do this at this time, what he lost would not be [-] million, but a [-] billion empire.Faced with such a gap, even a fool would know how to choose.
The sincerity of the shareholders is still valuable. For the sake of this water lily, John Vince Morgan, who was not willing to see him, took time out of his busy schedule to meet him. Said bluntly.
"Sir, let's cut the long story short. I know that General Electric is in big trouble, and your market value has shrunk by at least half. From my point of view, you should try to get your market value back as soon as possible at this time. So I I don't understand, what are you looking for me at this time?"
"Mr. Morgan, I need your help."
Shareholders have to explain the situation they are facing and all their analysis as if they start pouring beans.Facing these things, old Morgan stroked his beard and suddenly laughed.
"Help, do you think I'll help you?"
"Your Excellency, you should help me. This is the evil method of the country on the other side. They put their hands on our plates by doing this. The Morgan consortium should not allow such a thing. It is against our interests. .After the first time, they might want to come for the second time. If you don’t repel them at this time, it will be too late later, won’t you?”
The first thousand 290 five chapters are cold and refuse to please the chips
As an American capitalist, the majority shareholder of General Electric believes that his position is very correct.Although in his point of view, the country on the opposite side has been vilified as a terrible enemy like a scourge.Even their behavior was almost equated by him to some kind of terrible intrusion.But he doesn't think there's anything wrong with his views.
Of course, this has nothing to do with patriotism.There is no such thing as patriotism for pure capitalists. As long as they have interests, they can even sell the most dangerous weapons to enemy countries at the most critical moment of their own country.It can be said that if it is not because of the malicious attack from the opposite country, the major shareholder would not be willing to offend such a big benefactor!He was forced to do so, and it was precisely because he was forced to do so that he maliciously slandered that side even more.
Knowing that the enemy is terrible, he is still indecisive, and hesitating will only bring disaster to himself.As a seasoned capitalist, the major shareholder is well aware of the consequences of covering up mistakes, so he resolutely put an end to such mistakes, and from the very beginning, he was determined to burn the boat.
Faced with his determination, old Morgan took out his beloved pipe with a blank expression, knocked it on the desk twice, then took out the match and lit the pipe.The smoke began to fill the air, and even the expression on his face was obscured.
Although the major shareholder wanted to know what old Morgan's attitude was at this time, he didn't dare to stare at him so bluntly.So he could only observe furtively, and nervously waited for old Morgan's final reply.
This answer didn't let him board for too long, old Morgan just thought for a moment before he came to his own conclusion.
"How do you want me to help you?"
"Funds, a lot of money." Hearing this question, the major shareholders immediately became excited. "About 1000 billion in liquidity is enough for us to pull the stock up again. As long as we pull the stock back, the guy on the opposite side will have no way to restrain us. After all, General Electric is a global company. He absolutely Don't dare to go too far!"
"Are you sure?" Hearing this, a half-smile appeared on Old Morgan's face.He took two puffs of shredded tobacco, and then spoke slowly to the major shareholder. "Having used such means, do you think they will let it go so easily? Even if you raise the stock price back, so what, can you still keep the stock in your hands? In order to ensure the operation of the company , you must still invest the stock back in the stock market. And at that time, how can you be sure that your so-called enemy will not use the same method to target you again?"
"It's impossible, of course it's impossible!" Hearing such a question, the major shareholder was startled, and immediately retorted with a forced smile. "They have lost nearly [-] billion in this malicious suppression of stock prices. If such a thing happens again, the price they pay will become even greater. Even they cannot afford such a Loss, because they are not sure if we can hold on any longer. So, so they will not. Yes, sir, they will not do it."
"The ideal idea, however, is too naive." Exhaling smoke rings, Old Morgan shook his head and said. "You must know that a mature capitalist should not have such a naive idea. Sir, you have been in this field for decades, and there is no reason why you don't know this truth. So this means, In fact, your heart has been messed up for a long time. You are not sure at all whether things will develop as you said, right? "
"Your Excellency, no one can be sure of that. And this is not what we need to discuss now. All we need is your help!"
"No, you need my help, that's right. But I also need to figure out whether you are worth my help. 1000 billion is not a small amount, I can provide it to you, but how do you put it Will the money be returned to me? After all, I am also a capitalist, not a philanthropist. With 1000 billion for charity, I am not so generous.”
Having said that, we have reached the most critical stage of negotiation.The major shareholder understands this in his heart, and he knows that if he wants to facilitate the most critical step, then he must come up with enough chips.
However, it is a pity that he can't come up with such a bargaining chip now.You know, even when General Electric was at its peak, his entire net worth as a major shareholder was only a few tens of billions.Now that General Electric has plummeted, his assets have also shrunk.Without him even in half of his heyday, how could he have such a big bargaining chip.So at the moment, he can only say to old Morgan with a bitter face.
"Your Excellency, you know that I don't have any chips in my hands right now. But I can assure you that once GE gets through this, we can immediately make fundamental adjustments to our corporate strategy. We can work together, in many ways. On the one hand, although the time may be a bit long, I can guarantee that the final reward will definitely satisfy you."
"Satisfy me, I'm afraid you don't believe it yourself. Forget it, let's do it like this."
Shaking his head, old Morgan seemed to have lost interest in such exchanges.So he immediately took out a checkbook from the desk in front of him, and after a few strokes on it, he handed it to the major shareholder.
Such an action made the major shareholder have a bad premonition in his heart. He subconsciously looked down, and the bright nine digits on it immediately made his face ugly.
"Your Excellency, what do you mean?"
"I like Monet's water lilies very much. I remember that you paid almost [-] million U.S. dollars to get it back. Now that the world is in turmoil, the art market is only falling but not rising. I bought this painting with [-] million U.S. dollars. To you It should be a good enough deal.”
The old god in old Morgan's answer is there, and from his answer, the major shareholders have already heard what he meant. He rejected his request and used this method to completely draw a line with himself.This made him feel humiliated, so immediately, he said a little angrily.
"Your Excellency, are you dismissing me as a beggar again?"
"Beggar?" Looking at the major shareholder playfully, old Morgan laughed. "It seems that your life is more luxurious than I imagined. Will it cost [-] million dollars to send beggars? If it is really to send beggars, I might take some coins from my body instead of a check. "
"Sir, maybe you think this is a kind of charity. But in my opinion, this is just a little kindness of my old man, leaving you a little chance to make a comeback. Maybe you will lose everything soon, and when the time comes At that time, this check will probably become the only capital for your comeback. Of course, you can also use it to enjoy your old age. Although you have not yet reached the age of enjoying your old age, many people fall down and climb again Don't get up. Believe me, I wouldn't be surprised if something like this happened to you."
Although the old Morgan's words sounded full of good intentions, in the ears of major shareholders, these words were an intensified humiliation.This gave him an urge to tear the check in his hand to shreds.But until the end, he didn't turn this impulse into reality.
He took a deep breath and swallowed all the grievances into his stomach.The major shareholder put on a tense face, and said to Old Morgan in an impolite manner.
"I don't understand why you are doing this, Mr. Morgan. Do you think that everything I said before is alarmist? Do you think that if you let the capital of that country flow into our country, it will really not do you any good?" Any influence? Don’t forget, we capitalists and the consortium we represent are able to own everything today based on the premise that the United States is the world’s hegemon. The United States dominates the world, and we capitalists who control the United States can capture To the greatest benefit. And now, that country has risen, they have begun to eat our capital markets, and you are now doing nothing about this change. I don't know what you are thinking, but I know that in the end, You will definitely regret it!"
"Sorry, maybe you really think so. But obviously, we see the situation differently. Therefore, our estimates of the future are also different."
Having bought a pair of Monet's treasures, old Morgan's mood is quite smooth.So at this time, he doesn't care about wasting more time and chatting with major shareholders for a while.As for the issue of enemy capital, he expressed his views.
"Since ten years ago, the world's economic center has been shifting to the East. At that time, we controlled the entire world's financial market, so we don't care about these. However, with the world changing and the decline of the United States, now At this time, we must prepare for the future. We all know where the future belongs. Therefore, establishing a good cooperative relationship with the biggest winner in the future is more important than anything else. Suppress him, target him, we The current capital can indeed do this, but what about in the future? The opponent will become stronger and stronger in the future, and we will only become weaker and weaker. Blindly hostile will only bring us into desperation little by little. So, instead of doing this kind of manipulation You might as well find a way out of this stupid thing about getting your neck into a noose."
"And GE, that's the price we have to pay for finding that way out. So you know what I'm thinking, sir."
Chapter 290 and Six Debt Crisis Unexpected Transactions
Is GE just a pariah, and a pariah being used to please others?If such a sentence comes from someone else's mouth, nine out of ten it is a joke.But if such words were spoken by someone with Morgan's background, it would not be ridiculous at all.
He knew very well what kind of behemoth the Morgan consortium was.Perhaps in the eyes of others, General Electric will be an out-and-out giant enterprise and a vital industrial force of a country.But for the Morgan consortium, GE is not irreplaceable.It's important, but it's not the only one.It's not out of the question to give it up, if that's necessary.
Now old Morgan has shown him such a necessity, and facing his statement, the major shareholder can only stand up in resentment, throw his sleeves and leave after saying a word.
"You will regret it, you will regret it!"
"Regret?" Looking at his leaving back, Old Morgan smiled and narrowed his eyes.He didn't say some words, but kept them in his heart.But now, when he was the only one left in this study room, he naturally began to whisper to himself. "This is a question I've always wanted to ask. Have you ever regretted Morgan becoming what he is today? No, of course you won't regret it. You have taken too many things from Morgan. And now, it is finally time for you to repay all of this. Morgan, after all, belongs to Morgan. Get some interest first, and we will calculate the principal slowly!"
Old Morgan has experienced the ups and downs of the Morgan family, so of course he has his own calculations in mind.It's a pity that the major shareholders of General Electric don't know this.Now he is completely immersed in the crisis he is facing, and he has no time to care about others, so he naturally has no time to guess other people's thoughts.
Angrily, he returned to his home, and the major shareholder began to hastily count the assets in his hands.He needs to know how much money he can use and how much property he can sell.The reason for doing this is because he knows it well.Once General Electric can't survive, then he will almost go bankrupt.
He, who invested almost all of his funds in the company's projects, is definitely the one who suffered the most losses among all shareholders.When those projects died with GE's changes, he would be completely broke.Not only will he lose everything, but he will even owe a lot of money to the bank.
Capitalists are used to using banks to borrow chickens to lay eggs. It is a shame for them to keep money in their own hands.Of course, this is the correct behavior in the vast majority of cases.After all, currency will depreciate due to inflation, but investment will not.However, when the capitalist's investment encounters a fatal blow, their clever behavior will immediately turn into a life-threatening curse, directly driving them into the abyss of eternal doom.
