American Fortune Life

Of course not!

Andy complained in his heart, but he didn't show a superfluous expression on his face, but said with a smile: "Mr. Stitch, of course there is no problem with cooperation, and I am willing to cooperate with you to manage the Giants well. After all This is an old NFL team. If I take over the team from the Mara family, I will adjust the lineup next. My goal is the world championship and the Super Bowl!"

Listening to Andy's words, Preston nodded to show his understanding. He knew that the smiling young man in front of him was waiting for him to ask, so he had no choice but to ask, "So, how much does it cost?"

Andy chuckled and said, "It doesn't take much in the first year. You and I each spend 100 million dollars on player transfers. It won't take long to turn the Giants into a championship team."

Preston twitched at the corner of his mouth, shook his head and laughed, and said helplessly: "You are using money to squeeze me away, well, young man, you have won, let your team contact me, and negotiate a good price , the 49% of the 100 million US dollars belongs to you!"

"Thank you!" Andy knew what he was doing and the other party must understand what was going on. If the other party was not short of money like him and dared to play gold dollar football like this, this move would be nothing. Use, but now it seems that it is not the master who is not short of money.

After chatting for a few more words, Ivana appeared next to Andy at the right time, and Andy hugged her waist, shuttling through the crowd of guests. For this kind of social occasion, Ivana was like a fish in water, showing her charm Let the guests be amazed.

"Apart from the Rockets, do you still want to buy the New York Giants?" Warren Buffett and his wife were chatting in a small circle with William III and Amanda, the heads of the Hearst family. After walking over with Ivana in his arms, he asked.

"Yes, I like sports. Although I don't play basketball or rugby very well, I think owning a team would be a good choice and a good investment project." The sharp arrow light chose to avoid it, and answered Buffett's question directly.

The people next to him could only look enviously at Andy's big spending. The Rockets plus the Giants need at least 500 to 600 million US dollars. God, what an enviable young man!

At this moment, Ivana was also very proud, and inadvertently met Amanda's eyes. If it was changed, you could see sparks flashing in the eyes of the two women.

"It's a good idea, I'm really surprised. At your age, your financial philosophy tends to be conservative. I thought you would continue to invest in the financial market." Although William III Hearst knew that his niece was a little entangled with Andy , but the elders will naturally not get involved in the affairs of the younger generations,

But the young man Andy's excellence is indeed rarely comparable to him. Thinking of something, he smiled and said to Andy: "Your Liberty City technology company, if you want to raise money, remember to call me a phone call!"

His words immediately attracted the attention of a group of people, and they immediately thought that apart from setting up two funds and doing some benefit sharing, Andy's companies have been eating alone. Anyone who has followed Andy from Mockingjay Games knows that it is impossible for him to raise funds. That company is now a money printing machine, and there is no need to expand at all. The profits it makes every day can make this company A game company has become a unicorn company in the industry.

P is different. With the hot sales of Apple smartphones, which everyone looked down upon at the beginning, everyone has seen the potential of the smartphone market. As Apple phones are accepted by more and more users and are very popular, Wattsup With the popularity of this software, Andy's Liberty City Technology Company has also become a technology company with great potential in the eyes of many investors and investment companies.

As long as the number of users grows, its value will double, double, and double. The value of tens of billions of dollars can be reached in an instant. This is a typical rise model of technology companies such as the IT industry.

If a company like p wants to develop, it needs a large amount of money to burn. Andy can choose to play by himself, but he has to take it out after all. Win-win cooperation, benefit sharing, and equal sharing of glory are generally the development models of American companies. Of course, eating alone is okay, but you must also be prepared to solve everything yourself. Looking at the miserable status quo of America Online, you can understand that eating alone in the United States is definitely not a good thing.

"Yes, but its value is not enough. Now it is still a baby, the user needs explosive growth, and the profit plan needs to come up with a solution. If these two points are achieved, it is the most suitable time for financing!" Speaking here, An Di smiled confidently, "It has this potential, and it is not just a tool for sending free text messages. It is only the initial version, and there are many powerful functions that have not been added. It will be unavailable for every mobile phone. An indispensable application that no one can do without!"

"Andy, you have a genius brain, you can make a lot of money every time you come up with something, you have to be admirable." A billionaire investment company said with envious eyes.

And this sentence has been recognized by everyone around. When P passes through the difficult period at the beginning, as the number of users continues to increase, the value of Wattsup will go further, but it will attract more investors to gather in it. Come in.

Ivana held Andy's arm, kept an elegant posture, looked at the time, and whispered in Andy's ear: "Honey, it's almost time, the dinner can begin."

Andy nodded, smiled and put the wine glass on the nearby waiter's tray, nodded and smiled at the surrounding people, and calmly invited all the distinguished guests to the table.

The dishes for tonight's dinner were carefully prepared by Ivana, reaching as many as 31 dishes, including many High-end classic ingredients, the chief chef of the Four Seasons Hotel has also prepared for a long time. While emphasizing the appearance of the dishes, he hopes to bring out the deliciousness of the ingredients, so that all guests can have a pleasant food journey.

The dinner party officially begins. The pre-dinner was flounder, scallops with seaweed, butter and caviar. While the guests were enjoying the delicious food, the orchestra began to play melodious and soothing music on a small stage.

With a charming smile on his face, Andy stood up from the main seat on the left, nodded left and right, "Dear Mr. Paulson and Mr. Bernanke, ladies and gentlemen, tonight, very It is an honor to be with all of you here. First of all, I would like to thank my girlfriend Ivana. She has prepared for this dinner for a long time, almost from the style of the tableware to the selection of every ingredient. Thank you...Of course, She is still an incomparable beauty!"

After the words fell, Ivana listened to the warm applause from the guests, raised her head, her eyes sparkled, and she looked at her boyfriend with joy and infatuation, with a charming smile on her face.

"It has been a great honor to be here with all of you, and we would like to thank Mr. Paulson and Mr. Bernanke, as well as the staff of the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department for their outstanding work every day to save the subprime mortgage market caused by the housing bubble in the United States. crisis..."

"Hehe..." Everyone present clapped their palms and let out a chuckle.

"...Everyone present here, respected leaders, I propose a toast for our rare meeting and dialogue tonight, for ourselves, for Wall Street, and for the prosperity of the United States, thank you!"

The applause was mixed with cheerful laughter. Even Bernanke, Paulson, and the CEO of Morgan Stanley, who was teased just now, kept shaking their heads and laughing. For Andy, a young man who is relaxed, confident, and humorous , to dilute the shadow of the subprime mortgage crisis that weighs on some people's hearts. After all, the subprime mortgage crisis has done little harm to the billionaires present here, and more is the impact of the companies they belong to, Wall Street, and the economic environment.

This is also why after the subprime mortgage crisis, the rich on Wall Street still ran as fast as they could and danced as fast as they could. The extravagant life continued, which caused a violent rebound from the public, and the event of Occupy Wall Street appeared.

The main purpose of Andy hosting this dinner is to give this group of Wall Street executives, billionaires who control funds, Secretary of the Treasury Paulson, Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke, an opportunity to contact and discuss in a fair manner. .

You must know that Paulson and the current CEO of the New York Stock Exchange, John Thain, both came from Goldman Sachs. Because of the principle of avoidance, private meetings have received too much attention, and conspiracy theories will give them a headache.

At the annual meeting of Goldman Sachs in Russia, Paulson used the opportunity of visiting Russia to sneak away and meet with Goldman Sachs executives to discuss the subprime mortgage crisis. .

Andy watched the guests savor the food, nodding in appreciation for the taste of the food, and at the same time whispering to the people around him who passed by specially arranged seats, with a satisfied smile on his face, looking sideways at Ivana, who was in the crescent moon, picked up the wine glass and clinked glasses with her girlfriend who had a happy face and a gentle smile.

The 31 dishes of the dinner made the guests very satisfied. It lasted for about 2 hours. When the gentlemen and ladies left the table with satisfied expressions, they returned to the banquet hall and continued to gather in small groups to drink together. While chatting with rum after dinner, Andy didn't surround Paulson and Bernanke with the troubled CEOs on Wall Street. He wasn't interested in such excitement, but Andy had already prepared two The rest area of ​​the swimming pool on the second floor for them to have a secret meeting.

He is now sitting in a corner lounge area with David Dunn, a great football player invited from England, while tasting wine and discussing issues with Premier League clubs.
