Chapter 183

Never underestimate Wall Street's ability to gather information, especially when these bloodthirsty monsters see the benefits.

Soon, details of twitter were on the desks of these financial institutions.

"Best seller Wang, South African Elon Musk?" The vice president of Da Mo is holding a file and making a comparison with the data of PayPal.

From his professional perspective, PayPal, as a payment tool, has great potential in the tide of rapid development of science and technology.

By contrast, twitter and wangwen.com The combined profitability is not a grade at all.

"But this is the media industry!" The vice president rubbed his temple and sighed softly.

After several failures in investing in film companies and television stations, Wall Street has understood that this industry is different from other industries.

The media giants on the west coast are the makers of the rules of the game.

In the transfer process of Columbia media group, they would rather accept the capital injection from Sony than the offer from local financial institutions.

For Wall Street, the media industry is arguably Achilles' heel.

If this is another industry, Damo doesn't mind cooperating with other investment banks to imitate.

Just as Sears department store refused to accept the investment from Wall Street, it would support a Wal Mart.

"But, mimicking twitter?" The vice president of Da Mo took a sip of coffee and thought quietly.

If it works, it's the best.

But if it fails, will the good development momentum of twitter be completely annihilated?

"This is an opportunity to really get involved in the media industry without following the old rules."

"This opportunity can't be measured by money."

He dropped the PayPal material and began to focus on twitter data.

At the same time, in Goldman's office.

CEO Henry Paulson stares at Lehmann without expression and says calmly, "you made a stupid mistake, you know?"

"But PayPal's profitability is far greater than that of twitter!" Lehmann retorted.

"Goldman Sachs has a nearly 10 percent stake in the Federal Reserve." Paulson tapped his finger on the table. "Is paypal as profitable as using dollars to harvest the world?"

"What we need is influence, media!"

"If we can control the three major wireless networks, with the blessing of money," Paulson pointed to Washington.

"who should be the leader has the final say?"

"Then..." Lehmann thought for a while, "according to the hidden rule that the media can only control in the hands of" their own people ", can we use the color of skin to force Wang Jian to hand over twitter?"

Paulson left a document in front of Lehmann. "This is the development process of twitter. How can you be sure that it will continue to grow after changing the Asian writer?"

"What's more," he pondered, looking as if through Lehmann into the distance.

"This is a new way to get involved in the media industry. Do you want Goldman Sachs to be the enemy of Wall Street?"

"Well, get in touch with the Asian writer."

"We, Goldman Sachs, are willing to defend the interests of our partners." Paulson looked back at Lehmann and said, "if we have to, we'd rather lose part of our own interests."

On this small street, there are offices of world-famous consortia, such as Citibank, Lehman Brothers and besyarman.

At this time, the most luxurious offices in each building are discussing twitter.

As the center of the storm, Wang Jian didn't know that he and twitter had been used as a fulcrum by Wall Street to leverage the media industry with capital because of the new information communication mode.

Wang Jian knew that the financial giants were very interested in the media, but he really didn't think much about the deeper reasons.

"Wang, which financial institution are you going to choose as the underwriter of twitter?" Tom asked.

"In addition to Goldman Sachs, which has the highest valuation and the best minimum sales conditions, choose which one." Looking at the background of the website, Wang Jian replied casually.

"However, we also need to make up for our relationship with Goldman Sachs."

"After all, according to Larry Page, wangwen.com In Silicon Valley, it's widely regarded as the Department of Goldman Sachs. "

"Mr. Wang, a gentleman wants to see you." The front desk of the company walked into the office and quickly said, "the other party claims to be your friend."

Sir? friend?

I don't have any male friends.Wang Jian a little confused response: "please come in."

Soon, a typical young German came into the office.

"Wang, long time no see." The other side warmly greet.

Wang Jian recalled in his mind for a few seconds, "Mr. Jeff Bush?"

However, his heart was more confused.

How can this second generation of top officials appear in his own small company?

Jeff Bush looks at Wang Jian, smiles and hands him a beautiful card.

"Giuliani, mayor of New York, will hold a charity dinner." He winked at Wang Jian. "He was worried about the situation of literature lovers."

Literature lovers, worry?

In other words, when the website set up a charity fund, the other side also made efforts?

At least, no barriers have been set up?

But what about the charity dinner?

"By the way, my brother will be there, too." Jeff Bush added with a smile, "after all, in this year's general election, the New York mayoral election is an appetizer!"

Hell, a charity dinner is a fundraising dinner!

Wang Jian took the invitation with a smile, but he knew in his heart that it was coming to repay him.

"All right, Wang." Jeff Bush took out some invitation cards and shook them. "I have to send them to some important people myself."

"I'll introduce George to you at the dinner party."

Looking at Jeff Bush's back as he left, Wang Jian swore in a low voice: "vampire!"

"Tom, go and find out how many dollars you need to donate in a situation like ours."

Tom nodded and left quickly.

Wang Jian returned to his office chair and studied the invitation carefully.

"Fortunately, it's not marked. I need to bring a female companion."

"Otherwise, I'll have another headache."

A moment later, Tom returned to the office.

"Wang, according to Matthew's law firm, if you don't ask for anything in Giuliani's next term."

"Well, fifty thousand dollars is the right number."

Fifty thousand dollars?

It's not expensive.

Wang Jian took out the check holder and wrote on it with a pen.

"It's only fifty thousand dollars. Jeff bush, the second generation of top officials, doesn't seem to be very valuable."

"Or does he really take himself as a good friend?"
