Chapter 742
When the public's attention was attracted by the Rolls-Royce 4S Auto City, the global financial market was already undercurrents.
On January 2, international gold prices rose to a high of $634 per ounce, and inflation in the United States further increased.
The US fiscal system quickly held a high-level meeting.
The meeting quickly passed a decision that shocked the world.
That afternoon, US Treasury Secretary Miller appeared on the TV screen with a serious look and announced that the US Treasury Department would no longer sell gold.
This light and fluttering sentence shocked the entire Wall Street.
The impact immediately spread to the world in a fission manner.
International gold prices have started a hurricane model.
In less than 30 minutes, the international price of gold has skyrocketed from a price of 634 dollars an ounce to an ultra-high price of 715 dollars an ounce.
The rise in the price of gold has created a linkage effect, which drives the rise of international crude oil prices.
Feedback on the exchange rates of various countries has made the exchange rate fluctuations of various countries more and more.
...
"A Yu, has this price reached its peak?"
In Xia Yu's house, Bao Yugang and Huo Yingdong came together and asked Xia Yu nervously about the international gold price.
Before Bao Yugang put out 220 million U.S. dollars, Huo Yingdong put out 180 million U.S. dollars, a total of 400 million U.S. dollars to Xia Yu speculation in London gold futures.
That's all, after all, Xia Yu personally followed, they were not worried.
It was only later that Xia Yu revealed to the two that if they had spare money, they could invest in London Gold. Of course, the two of them were willing to believe Xia Yu, so they spent a lot of money to speculate in gold futures on their own.
After all, the two of them are not professionally engaged in finance. Suddenly they saw that the US Treasury Secretary Miller had come out to interfere, and the gold price started the rocket mode, which was completely beyond the scope of their analysis capabilities. Both of their subordinates said they did not know what to grasp. After saving, they can't help but worry.
If one is not good, in case the price of gold plummets again and the floating profit is gone, they are afraid that even the principal will be eaten up, which will make their career suffer severely.
In this case, Bao Yugang and Huo Yingdong could still sit still, so they simply came to Xia Yu and asked him about the situation.
Xia Yu took a sip of tea, and Feng Qingyun said calmly, "Lao Bao, Lao Huo, An Xin, where is it now? The price of gold is only seven hundred and fifteen dollars an ounce, which is still low!"
Bao Yugang stared at the tiger and blurted out: "Ayu, is the price still low? I remember that the international gold price was only 180 US dollars in 1977, and it only rose to more than two hundred at the end of 1978, and now it is nearly three at the end of 1978. Double the price!"
Huo Yingdong also nodded and said, "Yes, A Yu, we all use ten times leverage, and we have invested in it, so it feels like there is no bottom."
Xia Yu said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's only the U.S. Treasury secretary who has come forward. Even the U.S. President has not even been dispatched. It shows that the United States has not yet reached the time when the pressure is greatest.
"Believe that those capitalists will never stop the evil wolves on Wall Street at a time when the country is making a fortune. I have paid close attention to the movements of Wall Street and London, England."
"If there is a turmoil, I will notify you immediately, but you must be ready to deliver at any time, lest the funds are too late to escape."
After hearing this, Bao Yu just felt relieved, and immediately nodded: "Then I can rest assured, I will be ready to listen to your news and act."
Huo Yingdong also agreed: "Yes, A Yu, it's up to you!"
After that, the three of them changed to a more relaxed topic.
...
At the same time, Shiba Park, Minato-ku, Tokyo, island country 7-11 retail company headquarters.
President Toshifumi Suzuki was dealing with company affairs, and suddenly there was a knock on the door, and he came in without looking up.
Then a subordinate came in and reported respectfully: "President, there is an important news to report to you."
Suzuki Toshifumi paused, put down the pen in his hand, raised his head to look at him, and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
The subordinate immediately said: "Just now, Taiichi Higashimoto, who was sent by the company to study at the American Southern Company, received a message that a Wall Street company was acquiring the American Southern Company."
Suzuki Toshifumi was startled, the calmness no longer existed. He looked at his subordinates with burning eyes and asked, "Is this news true? What else did he say?"
The subordinate nodded solemnly and said, "I have asked again and again, this news is true."
"It's just that he is only studying there after all, and he doesn't know the news of the senior executives of American Southern. He is still inquiring, and will report to the company as soon as there is important news."
Suzuki Toshifumi still feels unreliable. After his efforts, the 7-11 convenience store has found a right path in the island country. Now it is developing better and better, and his cooperation with the American Southern Company is also considered happy.
In the unlikely event that the American Southern Company changes ownership and changes to an unspeakable boss, if something comes out, it will be in big trouble!
After all, the 7-11 convenience store in the island country was authorized by the Southern Company, although they have to pay a 0.6% profit dividend for it.
And the more he runs a 7-11 convenience store, the more he discovers that this is a good way and the prospect is bright, so he is determined to forge ahead, he is not satisfied with only developing in the island country.
Since the American Southern Company can be acquired, why not be acquired by them?
Thinking of this, Suzuki's heart beat faster.
He decided to go to the parent company Ito Yokado to put forward this opinion, but before that, he must first inquire about the situation.
He picked up the phone and dialed the number of the Southern Company.
"Hey……"
Listening to the other party's words, Fum Min Suzuki's face gradually became serious.
After hanging up the phone, he immediately ordered people to notify the directors and call an emergency board meeting.
After intense negotiations, Fumatoshi Suzuki struggled to persuade all the directors of the island nation’s 7-11 retail company. The meeting unanimously passed the meeting to join the acquisition camp and strive to acquire the Southern Company.
After an internal agreement was reached, Toshifumi Suzuki rushed to the parent company Ito Yokado, persuaded the parent company’s president Masatoshi Ito, and received the parent company’s support.
Afterwards, Fumatoshi Suzuki selected several capable and reliable subordinates to form an acquisition team, flew to the United States on the same day, and then transferred to Dallas, Texas.
There, it is the headquarters of the American Southern Company.
On Xia Yu's side, it was Julian Robertson, the general manager of Tiger Fund, who was in charge of acquiring the Southern Company.
He happened to have a friend who held an important position at the First National Bank of Dallas, and the First National Bank of Dallas happened to be the main lending bank of the Southern Company.
Therefore, Julian Robertson made full use of this relationship ~ www.novelhall.com~ through the tiger skin of the Texas Consortium to strategically oppress the US Southern Company, opening a hole.
After a period of tug-of-war, the psychological defenses of the original shareholders of the Southern Company were defeated one by one.
Seeing that it is about to succeed, who knew that a group of Japanese jumped out to join the competition, and the American Southern Company, which was supposed to agree to, began to be sold again.
In the face of this unexpected situation, Julian Robertson sent someone to continue to attack the tough situation. On the other hand, he made a call to Xiangjiang to report the unexpected situation to Xia Yu.
Hong Kong Kowloon, Jiuding Building, Chairman's Office.
"...I see, you continue to buy, and now you have only acquired 28% of the equity. This is far from enough. What I need is 100% of the equity!"
"I will also interfere!"
After speaking, Xia Yu hung up the phone. After thinking for a long time, a call came to the island country Jiuding Yonghe Fund Co., Ltd.
Half an hour later, the call came back, and it was Kazuya Fukuhara on the other end of the call.
"Mr. Fukuhara, I want to ask you something. Could you help me investigate Ito Yokado's information... what?"
"It has something to do with the Mitsui Foundation?!"
"A peripheral company of the Mitsui Consortium system?!"
"Okay, thank you, I know this, but I still have to trouble you to check the detailed information for me, preferably the detailed information of all shareholders,... OK, I'll wait for your news!"
"Patter!"
After hanging up the phone, Xia Yu leaned on the boss's chair, rubbed his temples, and contemplated.
He didn't expect that even if he acquired a Southern American company, such a moth would come out. The little devil's dog nose would be too good!
