"Something happened, something happened!"
On the other side of the phone, Lin Yuan's excited voice came: "Did you know that Lehman Brothers Investment Bank, the fourth largest investment bank in the United States, is going to sell its 40 billion assets!"
"Then what?"
Shen Fei's heart moved, but his face asked calmly: "What does it have to do with me?"
"Brother, you forgot, there were rumors last month that Goldman Sachs manipulated the stock price to make Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers bankrupt!"
Lin Yuan said with a smile: "Now that Lehman Brothers has announced the sale of its assets, the entire Wall Street has gone crazy!"
In fact, not only Wall Street, but also the entire financial markets in Europe and America were affected by this news, and their eyes were shaken.
the reason is simple.
The United States has just started to rescue the market, and the housing market has just stabilized. Merrill Lynch announced that it will sell 50 billion US dollars of assets to the Bank of America.
And this time.
As the fourth largest investment bank in the United States, Lehman Brothers is in trouble. What this means is self-evident.
"Ruined!"
Lin Yuan said with a smile: "I feel that you may make a lot of money this time."
Shen Fei smiled slightly: "You help me keep an eye on it, and notify me as soon as there is any news."
"good."
Naturally, Lin Yuan quickly nodded in agreement.
Putting "147" on the phone, Shen Fei couldn't help but let out a long breath.
Although he had already guessed in his heart, but when this moment came, he was also a little excited.
Shen Fei knew that this was just the beginning, and the next game would truly determine the fate of Lehman Brothers.
However, he knew better that no one would rescue Lehman Brothers this time. The bankruptcy of the company had already entered the countdown.
Some people still pin their hopes on the U.S. government, but in fact Shen Fei knows that for the U.S. government, no matter whether it is public or private, he is not suitable to rescue Lehman Brothers.
Yu Gong, the United States stipulates that the Federal Reserve can inject capital into the bank only when the bank has sufficient capital for mortgage.
But the current Lehman Brothers, with assets of 800 billion U.S. dollars, has a net capital of less than 30 billion U.S. dollars.
Undoubtedly, it is absolutely insolvent and does not comply with the relevant laws and regulations of the United States.
In private, before this, the United States has helped Bear Stearns, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac [only the funds lent to Fannie Mae and the real estate industry are as high as more than 180 billion US dollars.
This has already caused strong dissatisfaction in the market, making the market believe that the US government is trying to intervene in the economy, or even manipulate the economy.
In this case, the US government has only one solution.
That is not to participate directly, but to make a bridge, so that the major companies in the market can help Lehman Brothers.
But at this time, Lehman Brothers' debt was as high as 610 billion US dollars. Such a huge debt was enough to crush a small country. For businessmen who put their interests first, they were unwilling to ask for trouble when they could not protect themselves.
According to what Shen Fei remembers, after negotiations, the British bank Barclays decided to acquire Lehman Brothers after divesting toxic assets, and the Wall Street consortia were responsible for financing Lehman Brothers and helping Lehman Brothers divest bad assets. assets.
But this operation plan was finally abandoned because of the opposition of the Morgan and Goldman Sachs consortiums. After all, they did not want to take risks.
As for Barclays Bank, the acquisition was also suspended on the grounds that it was not safe.
finally.
Lehman Brothers announced the prelude to the crisis!
The collapse of market confidence was out of control, and the stock market also began to plummet. The entire US and global economies are in crisis.
Even Huaguo was not spared.
Thinking of this, Shen Fei frowned, took out his phone, and dialed Chen Heyuan's cell phone.
"Temporarily suspend the acquisition of land."
Shen Fei said calmly: "In addition, the existing land will start to borrow from the bank immediately.
"ah?"
Chen Heyuan was stunned when he heard the words.
He was planning to acquire more land according to Shen Fei's plan, but it was a bit strange that Shen Fei stopped the matter.
"Something happened over there in the United States."
Shen Fei said lightly: "I suspect that domestic land prices may continue to fall.
hiss!
Hearing Shen Fei's words, Chen Heyuan took a deep breath.
Although I don't understand why Shen Fei made such a judgment, if it is true according to Shen Fei's statement, wouldn't it mean that the domestic real estate market will continue to collapse?
"good."
Chen Heyuan quickly nodded in agreement.
No matter what, Shen Fei's judgment has never been missed, so of course he has to obey.
Shen Fei put down the phone, and called Li Chunfeng and others separately, telling them not to do venture capital for the time being, and to wait and see.
Although everyone was a little strange, they agreed to follow Shen Fei's instructions.
Time passed quickly and more than a week.
In a blink of an eye.
The beginning of September arrived as scheduled.
And this time.
Shen Fei's mood was completely different from before.
Because he made money!
The U.S. stock market was shaken by the incident of Lehman Brothers. Although it has not plummeted yet, it has already begun to fall.
According to the agreement, Shen Fei received a compensation of 100 million US dollars from each of the five banks.
in other words.
The 150 million U.S. dollars he lost in the previous three months have all come back, and he has earned 350 million U.S. dollars!
"This, isn't this too outrageous?"
When Lin Yuan heard the news, he said in surprise: "Don't tell me, it will still fall later."
"have no idea."
Shen Fei said flatly: "Whether it's winning or losing, I can't stop."
Lin Yuan remained silent.
He knew Shen Fei was telling the truth.
In fact, this VAM agreement has never been terminated since it was signed. Neither Shen Fei nor the other party will give up.
Everyone has self-confidence and trusts their own judgment.
obviously.
Shen Fei wins the game!
"How's the situation over there on Wall Street?"
Shen Fei asked Lin Yuan.
"Lehman Brothers is at the end of its rope."
Lin Yuan said slowly: "I guess it won't be long before they have to declare bankruptcy."
"about there."
Shen Fei thought for a while and said with a smile: "My personal suggestion, if you bought stocks before, you'd better sell them all now, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to cry when the time comes.
"Isn't it?"
Lin Yuan frowned, and said in surprise.
He really didn't expect that Shen Fei would not be optimistic about the U.S. stock market.
It stands to reason that since the consortium and the government have rescued the market, the US stock market should not be too miserable. In Shen Fei's eyes, it seems that it has reached the end of the road.
Shen Fei heard Lin Yuan's words, and said calmly: "This is just the beginning, you believe me, within a month, the entire financial market in the United States, even if it doesn't collapse, will be in a trance."
"ok, I get it.
Lin Yuan nodded and hung up the phone.
After putting down the phone, he asked people to sell all the stocks and futures in his hands.
certainly.
He knew very well in his heart that since Shen Fei said that, he must have made some judgments, so Lin Yuan not only sold the stocks in his own hands, but also asked a few good friends to sell the stocks in their hands.
As for Shen Fei, after putting down the phone, his expression was a little serious.
He couldn't explain to Lin Yuan what economic globalization is, after all, that concept was too illusory.
Or.
Even if they also study finance, many people can't imagine how there will be a financial crisis when the financial market in the United States has stabilized now.
But actually.
It was this unimaginable result that just happened.
Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, the U.S. officials stood by, and major financial groups were afraid of risks. In the end, the entire market's confidence in the economy completely collapsed, and the stock market collapsed!
certainly.
This has nothing to do with Shen Fei, he is very pleased to have such a result.
After all, he still has billions of dollars to earn, so of course he is happy.
Shen Fei has always liked making money from Americans.
Living in China, Shen Fei followed the Olympic Games every day, occasionally called Lin Xue, and the relationship warmed up quickly.
The work at Wanli Film and Television is also progressing very leisurely.
After Zhang Yimou's contract with New Picture ended, he officially announced the start of his own personal studio and joined Wanli Film and Television.
Now.
Those colleagues in the entertainment industry understood what happened.
After a long time of trouble, it was Wanli Film and Television that gave Zhang Yimou the confidence to turn against Zhang Weiping!
It is said that Zhang Weiping smashed his favorite vase in the office and cursed Zhang Yimou.
This is just a legend, without any evidence.
Among such news, the news that Liu Shishi left Tangren Film and Television and joined Wanli Film and Television has become an unremarkable little news.
After all, she is not well-known, even though Tang Ren Film and Television was a bit reluctant, Cai Yunong chose to give up after having an in-depth discussion with Liu Shishi.
Just like what Liu Shishi said to her, since she is going to be unspoken, why didn't she choose Shen Fei, a handsome guy, to accompany those old men?
Cai Yunong couldn't answer her question.
After all, she is the manager of Tang Ren Film and Television, but she knows that the current Tang Ren Film and Television is indeed different from the company she founded.
For this reason, she also made a special phone call to Shen Fei, begging Shen Fei in words to take good care of Liu Shishi.
"This child has an honest personality and is a bit unprofessional. Mr. Shen, if you despise her one day, remember to call me.
Cai Yunong said sincerely to Shen Fei.
"Don't worry, President Cai."
Shen Fei smiled: "I am a person who has always been generous to my own people."
At this moment, he spoke from his heart.
