"I really hope this disaster will pass ..."

In the car home, Ivana lay in Andy's arms and murmured softly.

Andy stroked Ivana's golden hair, kissed her forehead and comforted: "Don't worry, everything will be fine."

"Dear, do you say Warren Buffett's concerns ...?"

"Oh, rest assured, I said that Washington will not let things get worse, but through the communication tonight, it surprised me a little, Warren, a determined patriot." Andy smiled. He said, then his eyes narrowed slightly, and he was deeply sighed.

"Mr. Buffett is niceguy," Ivana echoed softly.

Andy froze a little, ‘niceguy’ heard the term, shook his head and laughed. This had to say the most important point in American culture.

To survive in the United States and integrate into the mainstream, from the moment everyone is born to die, the American culture that this life must follow, including the American corporate culture, is niceguy.

Nice guy. Of course, this is not meant to be a good person. Well, Buffett's set is indeed in line with the mainstream values ​​of white American society. It is low-key, simple in life, easy-going and friendly. . .

"He has two wives ..." Andy whispered maliciously.

"Uh-"

Ivana smiled awkwardly, gave him a charming white look, stretched out her hands and fisted a few times, and said, "After Mrs. Buffett's death, he married his current wife."

"But he let the two women live together at home and wait for him ... Damn it, this old hooligan, it really is ... Keke, I have no other meaning." Andy was very envious and jealous. However, threatened by Ivana's sneer expression on his waist and a small hand about to slap on his waist, he coughed hurriedly with two coughs.

"Humph!"

. . . . . .

On the 16th the following day, AIG is still in hot water. This old insurance company is involved in life insurance, life insurance, property insurance and auto insurance. It has the retirement accounts of millions of American families and provides insurance to 180,000 companies. Insurance for two-thirds of the workforce in the United States also holds $ 2.7 trillion in derivatives contracts.

Everyone knows that aig is different from Lehman, which only has US $ 5 billion in business in the United States. Once aig falls, then Americans are really dead.

In the morning, New York State Governor David Patterson announced that he had approved the troubled American insurance company American International Group to use its subsidiary's $ 20 billion assets for self-help.

Then, when AIG's stock price fell to $ 2, news came in Washington in the afternoon. Geithner proposed to the AIG board some provisions to rescue it, and provided Aig with $ 85 billion through the New York Federal Reserve Bank. Capital injection, a 79.9% stake in Aig was acquired, and the government injected capital to take away three-quarters of Aig's shareholders. Of course, Aig had to pay "usury", and ceo was replaced, and a group of executives was fired! .

"It's vicious enough!" Andy looked at the fax in his hand, said with a sneer, watching the message displayed,

"The crisis has begun to affect American politics. Inadequate financial supervision in the United States has become the focus of external criticism, and the public and the media are questioning that these institutions are obviously suspected of negligence. More importantly, they ignore the crisis and watch Lehman's collapse, making the crisis further. Enlarge ... "Al looked seriously.

"Mr. President is the most unfortunate. He had to give Paulson a helping hand and abandon the decision to rescue Lehman Brothers. It became the focus of the Xiaofei shoe government's question. This became a disaster that not only caused the stock market crash, but also triggered In light of the political upheaval, the presidential campaign shifted from the saliva battle of "helping pigs lipstick," and the financial disaster on Wall Street suddenly became the test of two presidential candidates, O'Neal and McCain. "

Arvitelli's words made Andy sneer again. "These two people have been arguing over the best crisis management in the past year when they can receive an emergency call at three o'clock in the middle. Now you can try the financial crisis first. Hand. "

Hearing the big boss's gloating jokes, Al shook his head and laughed: "What good can these two people do, except to brag is to make a wish.

However, the boss, the panic in the market is a little bit beyond imagination. At a friend's birthday party last night, several guests asked me if their money market funds were safe. To be honest, I also started to worry. For a long time Being considered as an indestructible money market fund, its safety issues have also caused widespread concern. "

Andy looked at Al with a stern face, and couldn't help sighing. Don't look at Al, Bardstone's subordinates are helping him to go crazy and make money. They are still very worried that the US financial system is really collapsing. After all, In that case, the confidence that they have always believed that the United States is the greatest will be broken, which is undoubtedly unacceptable to these American elites.

"Panic is inevitable. It takes time and confidence to slowly calm down. At the right time, not only Warren will move to boost confidence, I will also." Andy's eyes flashed brightly, calmly said calmly.

Al also blinked slightly, looking at his big boss and saying, "You will be a hero!"

Andy smiled indifferently, shook his head unwillingly, pretending to look like he didn't care, but in fact this was his perfect strategy of killing two birds with one stone. By then, he would not only be able to make a bottom sweep in the stock market, but it would also become an American eye Hero, a patriot.

Alas, niceguy! Andy Smith is a good guy!

As long as he has an example halo buff of the mainstream values ​​in American society, in case any private life chaos is revealed, disharmony such as illegitimate children will be easily forgiven and accepted by the public. After all, who can not have a shortcoming, otherwise Warren Buffett's old rogue monogamous affairs will not be ignored by the entire American society.

"By the way, how much is the price of gold now?" Waking up from yy, Andy asked looking at Al.

"$ 775 per ounce, due to the global stock market crash and rising risk aversion are all factors, the price of gold has risen sharply, boss you intend ..."

When he heard the price, Andy shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "It's not the time."

Alvitre's gaze was faintly concealed. To be honest, he had some inexplicable judgments about the big boss before the beginning, but now he knows that some of his big boss's judgments are amazing.

Although most of them are the results of the analysis of data from think tanks, this still can't hide the flash point of the big boss. Maybe his own boss is really the darling of God's care.

"Investment banking and capital market business. After the news went out, did anyone inquire?" Andy naturally did not know what Arr was thinking. Even if he knew it, he would not be nervous and nervous at first. After all, This kind of thing is really too rampant, they would rather believe that this is God's care.

"Yes, Barclays, CIC, and Mitsubishi have all made their debuts, and they are thinking about taking advantage of the carrion on Wall Street. After all, the thin camel is still very large! However, except for Barclays Bank, which is very sincere and unexpected, other Both are looking for cheap.

Lehman Commercial Bank in its heyday and ranked 7th in the global stock underwriting business, and Barclays did not squeeze into the top 25. They had an ambition to open the North American market very early. This time they also spotted Lei This business of Man wants to make up for their shortcomings.

However, their acquisition was stopped by the British government with bad intentions. Originally, they wanted to wait for Lehman's bankruptcy to grab the fat immediately. Hehe, I heard that when Ceo of Barclays Bank learned that After we acquired Lehman's core business, we smashed a TV directly. "

"Haha ..." After hearing Al's report, Andy laughed so much that he could make the group of Englishmen with bad eyes eat. He was really happy and laughed after the laughter converged. : "I just want them to regret and kill them! I didn't expect that the price of 800 million yuan was not scared off, hey, am I asking for a lower price?"

"........." The corner of Al's mouth twitched slightly, a black line in his head. For his boss, he no longer knew what to say.
