Chapter 402

"Why? Curious about me?" boss Jia smiled when he saw Harry Potter's surprised eyes.

"No..." Harry Potter shook his head, but there was no credibility.

"I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Jia Yapeng. I'm a Chinese. I'm also the founder and controller of the foundation." Jia Yapeng said faintly, and Harry Potter nodded hard.

"Do you know why I chose you as general manager?" Jia Yapeng suddenly asked.

"I don't know..." Harry Potter shook his head again. He really didn't know why.

"Because I need a trustworthy person who knows all kinds of inside information about Wall Street to manage my property. Unfortunately, it's hard to find trustworthy people on Wall Street!"

"I've read your information. You have worked in 17 famous financial funds on Wall Street, five of which were fired by the company because you refused to sell those junk funds to the elderly, the unemployed and other people who live on a small amount of money!"

"There are few people like you on Wall Street. I appreciate you very much!" boss Jia smiled.

"But Sir, in that case, I can't help you make money!" Harry Potter said with his head down.

"No, only you can help me make money!" boss Jia patted Harry Potter on the shoulder. "I'm not interested in the American stock market, I'm not interested in any financial market, I'm only interested in those entity companies."

"So your next important task is to help me acquire or invest in some American enterprises. I don't need you to help me attack, because I will control the target of attack. You just need to help me defend, guard the shares of various companies I have acquired, guard against a pair of greedy eyes, a pair of eyes and conspiracies trying to take benefits from our fund!"

"I need you to defend. Do you understand what I mean?" Jia Yapeng said.

"I see!" Harry Potter nodded excitedly, because he finally understood what his task was in the whole fund.

This task sounds like some bullshit. Since the equity has been bought, no one can buy it unless the foundation is willing to trade. Why do you need to defend?

Because there are many loopholes in the world, especially in finance. Although the equity cannot be transferred, the actual controller of the company transfers the company's assets from hidden means.

Or dilute the equity by introducing other investments. Anyway, those who really can play can kill those investors in hundreds of ways and fight down the equity in the hands of investors.

Boss Jia neither understands these nor has time to pay attention to the American market every day, so he needs a guy who is proficient in all these tricks to help him keep the equity and wealth of the foundation.

In this way, Harry Potter, who has been fighting on Wall Street for more than 10 years and has not changed, is the best choice.

As for his contacts with Wall Street, Jia Yapeng wants guys who don't have a good relationship with all vampires on Wall Street. Otherwise, Wall Street has 1000 ways to win over Harry Potter. Maybe the general manager of the foundation will kill our boss Jia.

"Boss, are you here to buy some companies?" Harry Potter asked excitedly.

"That's right! I'll give you the first task!" Jia Yapeng said, handed a small note to Harry Potter, and then said, "I'll give you three days to get all the details of the company on this note."

"Yes!" Harry Potter excitedly took the note, fixed his eyes and found that there were five names "marvel, NVIDIA, Qualcomm, apple and AMD"

"Why are these five companies?" Harry Potter was in a daze when he saw the names of these five companies.

Among the five companies, there are not only companies famous all over the United States, such as marvel and apple, but also companies with names that have not been heard of, such as NVIDIA.

If these companies are high-tech electronic industries, the extra Marvel will be very embarrassing.

Although he didn't know why his boss listed the names of such five companies, Harry Potter knew that if he couldn't complete the task within three days, his position as general manager wouldn't be stable.

As a result, Harry Potter burst out with unprecedented passion. After sending boss Jia to the hotel for placement, he began the process of frantically collecting data for sorting.

Three days later, Harry Potter, with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, finally put a detailed and complete information in front of boss Jia.

Jia Yapeng saw this thick more than 100 pages of information, and a simple five page collection, but all the essentials were gathered together. The boss was lucky that he chose Harry Potter as general manager.

Boss Jia spent a day reading almost all the materials and had a certain understanding of the five companies.

Among them, marvel is undoubtedly in the worst situation. It began its tragic life after Ron Perelman bought it in 1989.

Perelman is a typical Wall Street wolf, only thinking about making money. Under his operation, marvel went public in 1991, which sounds like a good thing.

However, Perelman used the funds after Marvel's listing to acquire a large number of toy companies and small and medium-sized publishers, but these toy companies and small and medium-sized publishers are actually Perelman's routine.

Because these large and small companies have long been secretly controlled by Perelman, or spent a lot of money to acquire these companies, Marvel's funds raised through listing were quickly squandered, and these funds naturally fell into Perelman's hands, while Marvel got a lot of bag companies or heavily indebted assets.

All this made Marvel heavily in debt and soon squandered all the funds obtained from the listing.

Not to mention, after draining Marvel's value in the stock market, Perelman began to fight Marvel's superheroes.

It is said that there is such a true story. After Perelman bought marvel, a reporter asked him why he wanted to buy Marvel.

At that time, Perelman replied, "because I grew up watching Superman and I love Superman deeply, I want to buy Marvel and let the Superman story shine again!"

Perelman's words are said to have made countless Marvel fans kneel down on the spot and couldn't help crying, as if lamenting that Marvel finally ushered in the Savior, which made Perelman a little proud.

But when Perelman bought marvel and got Marvel's balance sheet, the guy was angry because he found that Superman was not marvel's superhero at all.

Although this paragraph is very funny and fully shows that Perelman actually knows nothing about comics and marvel, Perelman is very clear that superheroes themselves are Marvel's greatest wealth. After decades of comic accumulation, these superheroes have unimaginable popularity in the United States, just like the popularity of journey to the West in China, These are Marvel's greatest wealth.

So Marvel began to sell the copyright of these heroes, and the adaptation rights of important characters such as magic four, X-Men, super brave and Hulk were acquired by larger film companies in the world.

As for other superhero copyrights sold, there are countless.

American investors are not fools. Perelman's means were soon seen through. Marvel's share price began to decline sharply, and finally fell to less than one dollar per share. At this time, Marvel's total market value in U.S. stocks was only a mere $50 million.

Marvel's shares can't be sold at all, because no one is willing to buy this junk stock. If we follow the original historical development, marvel will completely collapse because it can't continue to operate in 1996, eventually go bankrupt and be sold by Perelman.
