The only good news on Sunday night was that Bank of America agreed to acquire Merrill Lynch for $ 29 per share, which is indeed very good news, but no one has the mood to celebrate.

When Andy was holding Ivana in the living room while watching the TV while watching the news, he was incredulous: "This is how he meows Wal-Mart's acquisition of Tiffany!"

At the same time, Andy also learned from the phone that Paulson could not wait to call the White House budget director and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, warning them that Lehman would apply for bankruptcy that night.

However, the Asian market has opened, and Lehman Brothers did not intend to declare bankruptcy. The 158-year-old company still wants to struggle to the end.

"Dear, don't wait for me, you can sleep first, maybe you will be busy tomorrow ..." She was dressed, standing at the door of her house, and holding Ivana's waist in a nightdress on her red hun. Andy said after a few kisses.

"Dear, I wish you success ..." Ivana knew that his man was going to do something big, and sent his wishes.

"Absolutely. I'm leaving, rest early." Andy smiled confidently, no longer dragging his feet, turned around and walked out of the house, and took Kenny's group of bodyguards to the elevator.

Downstairs of the apartment building, the convoy was on standby. Al and three think tank supervisors waited at the door. When they saw Andy, they hurried to meet them.

"Let's talk on the road!" Andy saw Al, didn't stop, nodded slightly, then bent down and got into the car.

Soon, the team disappeared into the night and headed for the Lehman Brothers headquarters building on Seventh Avenue.

The flow of people in Manhattan, New York is still busy. At the brightly lit Lehman Brothers headquarters on Seventh Avenue, the police surrounded the gate with a fence, full of reporters and curious pedestrians.

‘What happened, is Lehman really going to close? ’A passerby asked. No one answered, and I saw employees from Lehman who kept walking out of the box holding luggage and dragging their luggage, and went to the streets to find a taxi.

Andy's team drove directly into the parking lot on the basement floor of the building. Andy took a group of people and took the elevator to the floor of the EO office.

In the EO office, there was a sorrowful cloud, Fold's face was exhausted, and his frown was constantly looking for his own phone book. He was constantly contacting all those who might save the company, but not everyone would still be here. Take his call now.

"咚咚"

"Boss, Mr. Smith is here ..."

Fuld's eyes were still sharp, and he raised his head and glanced at the secretary at the door. He nodded slightly, extinguished the cigarette in his hand, ignored the already messy shirt, got up from the boss chair, and walked outside the office. Go on.

He knew that Andy Smith was definitely not here to save Lehman so late. As for the purpose, it was clear that the young vulture wanted to take the lead to compete for the most delicious part of Lehman, although he hated this group of greed very much. Guy, but if he can, he hopes to give Lehman some lingering time.

"Sorry to disturb you so late, Mr. Fuld." Andy smiled brightly, and when he was two steps away, he reached out and shook hands with Fald, who was expressionless.

"Don't bother, you know, we are now ... forget it, let's not talk about it, please drink something in there?" Fuld squeezed a smile, without the polite mood, invited directly.

"Coffee is fine, thank you." Andy didn't care about Fuld's rudeness, he was very clear about what he did, not to mention rudeness, it was cynicism, as long as he could achieve the goal, he could cope with a smile.

The luxurious and spacious office rest area, where the host and the guest were seated, had a bit of a chill, and the coffee was also delivered. Fold waved his secretary. After the office door was closed, he crossed his hands in front of him and crossed his legs. He stared at Andy with a sharp eye and said, "Mr. Smith, let's be honest, what do you want?"

"Ok?"

Blowing a few times while holding the coffee, Andy gave a sip, raised his eyes and looked at Fuld, his mouth slightly tilted, put down the coffee cup, then leaned back on the sofa and laughed: "Don't hurry to say What do I want? I have something here that happened today that you did n’t know. Interested to hear it? "

Fuld groaned for a moment, and didn't respond, but just reached out and signaled that he had a bad hunch.

"I know you and Lehman's board are still pinning their hopes on the White House ..."

With Andy's narration, Fuld's face flushed with anger, his hands were trembling with tension, his breathing rhythm became disordered.

"... At this moment, many people are waiting for you to execute bankruptcy proceedings. Believe me, after midnight, Paulson will lose patience, and he will even force you to declare bankruptcy ..."

"Enough!" Fuld has been completely irritated by a series of words from Andy, who is a grumpy person in his own right, and Andy told him something that made him dying, and his last confidence was completely wiped out .

Andy lifts the coffee cup, sips, and looks at the excited Fuld with a smiley look, until the other person slowly calms down, and then puts the remaining half of the coffee cup on the table , The voice said coldly, "In this delicious meat and meat feast sharing predators, some predators became the mid-course meal, and some became the enjoyers of the same kind!"

Fuld was resentful, and his eyes were full of anger. "The inside story of Lehman's downfall will one day be true, but in order to prevent hurting my family and friends, I will not say it now, but one day I will ..."

"They need to find a bad guy in order to divert the public's anger against their supervision!" Andy said lightly, watching a sneer in Fuld's heart full of anger, no one on Wall Street liked him, not only that, this guy also Paulson has been humiliated at the reception, and he has to say that this guy is not unjust.

"Let's talk, what do you want? What price can you give us! Don't go any further!" Fuld stared at the young but cunning Andy Smith facing him, almost growling.

"Lehman's New York headquarters, two data centers in the United States, and the core business units in North America and Europe, I have all $ 1.3 billion ..."

"Asshole! Do you meow what you're talking about!" Fuld growled at Andy with a grimace.

Andy crossed his hands in front of him, leaning Erlang's legs, his expression was indifferent, and Fold, who was staring down at himself, said coldly, "Cash, I believe your board members will be happy to start the bankruptcy process. Redeem some of your losses! "

"Whoohoo"

Fuld breathed violently, clenched his fists, and could not wait to punch this disgusting face in front of him.

"I know that you will hold the last board meeting at 8 o'clock, and 15 minutes. I will wait for your news here. If you do not agree, I can also wait until you are in bankruptcy to get these, although I may play with you. Barclays Bank competes, but in this way, no matter how much money is sold, it has nothing to do with you. You can only watch those dollars being divided up and let the bankruptcy consulting company continue to take away the wealth that originally belonged to you. "

With a smile on the corner of Andy's mouth, he shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, a look I can accept no matter what you choose.

Furious Fold's body was a bit stiff, and his expression was constantly changing. The tired Fold sat on the sofa all of a sudden, and said with a sad smile, "Damn, you greedy devil, I shouldn't see you of……"

"Trust me, Chad, the board of directors will be grateful to you and take the money to enjoy a low-key happy life, and those who want to see your jokes will be anxious and stunned!" Andy finished with a very kind tone Bewildered.
