Night fell, and the setting sun shrouded every street in Manhattan. Andy saw the silhouette of tall buildings under the sun through the windows of the car. The convoy slowly crossed the center of Manhattan, Times Square, and the neon lights flickered. Tide, full of life, and Wall Street is still immersed in the pain of violent turbulence.

In a Samsung Michelin restaurant, Andy smirked and wore a bright silver fabric long dress, showing the proud line of Ivana. He kissed him and wanted to sit against Andy. Ivana was caught.

"Sit with me. Warren's guy will come over in a while. Sorry, I have rejected him, but I didn't expect him ..."

"Andy, it's not a gentleman who speaks behind ..." A smile on his face, Warren with black-rimmed glasses appeared at the dining table, interrupted Andy's spit, and his face showed a gentle smile and Ivana. Face greetings.

"Ivana, you are getting more and more charming, yes, congratulations."

"Thank you, Mr. Buffett, please sit down." Ivana said with a charming sweet smile on her face, and said gracefully.

Andy didn't get caught in the current embarrassment. Instead, he gave Warren a white look and said angrily, "You disturbed our two-person world."

"Well, Ivana, I'm sorry, I hope you can understand, very time." Buffett said apologetically to Ivana.

Ivana smiled and shook her head. "It's nothing, Mr. Buffett. I understand. I'm glad to invite you to dinner."

"Oh, thank you, it's an elegant and charming girl!" Buffett said with a happy smile. Of course, he didn't get angry with Andy's performance, and he and Andy meant a bit of forgetfulness. It's not just once or twice.

The three of them ordered and chatted, but for the scene where Andy Smith and Warren Buffett sat together for dinner, many customers in the restaurant became curious, and from time to time someone would cast a surprise look.

After all, at this time, the financial turmoil has converged into a financial tsunami that swept Wall Street and the world. The shadow of panic has covered the world. Andy and Warren have undoubtedly had a huge influence in the American people. People are called ghosts if they get together.

"Andy, this is the most panic moment I've seen on Wall Street." Warren took a sip of pre-dinner wine, his face was somber, his eyes were dark, and his voice was a little low.

No one doubts that this may be the most panic moment in Wall Street history. Neither Andy, Ivana, or even the American people will doubt this.

Andy nodded slightly, and said calmly: "This is a bloodless war, but also an international change that has caused countless people to lose their homes and even be displaced! For us, an unprecedented game has also begun. Prologue. For example, intrigue between giant companies, down the road ... "

Speaking of this, Lehman, who thought of bankruptcy, shook his head and laughed: "Hehe, miserable, helpless, but also stimulating. Lie bankruptcy, no more tickets!"

Warren Buffett smiled slightly and declined to comment. He knows what Andy is feeling, but he sees such things a lot. Besides, he won't be given a pitying face by the **** boy in front of him. Bewildered, the **** in front of him is harder and more greedy than anyone else.

"Andy, I'm not in circles with you, let's be honest, you are not interested in the aig group? If you have the opportunity to let you annex it, would you like to shoot?" Warren lowered his voice, leaned forward, sharp eyes and Andy looked at each other.

Ivana, who had been listening with a smile, narrowed her pupils a little, and her hand holding the wine glass trembled unnaturally.

"Oh?" Andy's eyes narrowed, his brain moved quickly, watching Buffett asked, "Willlenstad contacted you again?"

Warren's eyes flashed, and he couldn't help sighing for the keen response of the young man below. He nodded slightly, lowering his voice and saying, "Before work, he called to ask me if I want to be" one pot "? He was referring to aig All property and accident insurance departments, he offered $ 25 billion! "

Andy's eyes flickered, his eyes flickered, and he didn't open his mouth. He held up the glass and took a sip of sweet wine. After lowering the glass, he said, "Why?"

Warren Buffett naturally understands what Andy meant, without any hint of concealment: "This transaction is too big. If you participate, Berkshire will borrow a large amount of money, which may endanger its valuable aaa credit. Rating ... "

When Andy heard this, he could not help but twitch the corners of his mouth, revealing a very obvious sneer, his arms flat on the table, his eyes sharply looked at Buffett and said lightly: "As far as I know, aig's financial dilemma is too serious It ’s too complicated. Do n’t say that I ca n’t afford $ 25 billion. Even if I can buy out aig, I will pull its financial hole into **** completely! ”

"Andy, don't get me wrong, listen to me, I mean, we will invest in aig together!" Warren Buffett's face changed slightly, his brows frowned slightly, and his expression was slightly nervous.

"..." Andy looked at Warren's expression, couldn't help staring at him, and asked curiously, "Warren, why are you so nervous?"

Buffett, who has always been eloquent, suddenly became silent, and then said in a low voice, "Seriously, before Lehman went bankrupt, I was not so worried. Last night I was at the Omaha Country Club happyhollowclub, and Google One of the founders, Brin and his wife, had dinner together. But when Lehman went bankrupt unexpectedly, followed by aig ’s empty capital of $ 60 billion, or more! Andy, I was really scared, The whole financial system could collapse, shuddering me.

Both Stanley and Goldman Sachs' share prices have been falling, because people are worried that they will become the next batch of closed companies. The commercial paper market, which helped companies across the country to finance daily operations, stalled ... "

Having said that, Buffett held up the red wine glass, drank the red wine in the glass, stared at Andy gloomily, and continued, "Do you know what it means?"

Andy didn't answer, just looked at Warren indifferently, waiting for his next.

"If the commercial paper market freezes completely, more major financial institutions and even thousands of brands like General Electric will be dumped because their checks will not be cleared.

If that's the case, US money market funds holding assets of about $ 3.5 trillion will panic, as some of them hold commercial paper. The resulting chaos can crash global financial markets, endanger Berkshire, and everyone goes to hell! "

Buffett shook his head with a bitter expression and sighed, "I feel this is a sight I have never seen before, and neither the American public nor the Congress fully understands the seriousness of the problem. I think we are really in abyss!"

Ivana, who had been listening quietly, changed her face and became pale, and looked at Andy with anxiety. Andy patted Ivana's little hand gently, and then looked full of pessimism. Emotional Buffett said: "When God will not come to the rescue, the US government will intervene! Perhaps, at this moment, Paulson and Geithner are already working on an action plan. I believe that they know the best. What kind of disaster will happen after the collapse of AIG, rising borrowing costs, shrinking household wealth, and further shrinking economic activities will cause the most fatal damage to already fragile financial markets and the economy. Do you think they dare to treat Lehman the same way Treat aig? "

In fact, the US government's bailout of financial institutions has not stopped, apart from stiffening its face at Lehman Brothers. Paulson has been in touch with Geithner about saving aig. After realizing the seriousness of the aig problem, Paulson met Xiaofei shoes and told him that he might have to let the Fed come to the rescue and hope to get his support. After Xiao Fei shoes weighed, he said, do what you want to do.

Paulson has even found a new ceo for aig ...
