New York, Monday, November 17.

Jeff Immelt, as usual, walked into his luxurious office, handed his trench coat to his secretary, and patted the little secretary's buttoks wrapped in tight skirts in exchange for a charming white eye.

Sitting on the boss chair symbolizing power, picking up the neatly arranged documents on the table, drinking hot fragrant coffee while watching the briefings sent by the company's various departments.

Since the financial crisis exposed the risks inherent in the financial business created by Welch, as an eo, he has been trying to reshape General Electric again, hoping to transform it into a digital enterprise, and once again lead GE to glory Become a corporate executive who trusts investors like Welch.

In the United States, nothing more than a name is needed for investors to be able to support a group of companies. For current Wall Street, Amazon's Jeffrey Bezos is synonymous with the right choice. So did Warren Buffett. Well, there may be a younger Andy Smith now.

In fact, part of the reason behind GE's past success lies in investors' unwavering trust in Welch, the legendary eo. The corporate executive always seems to hit the quarterly target exactly as clockwork. But this model has begun to shake in his own hands as a successor, which he undoubtedly does not want to see.

Warren Buffett's capital injection and Andy Smith's short-term help did not seem to get GE out of the quagmire. Instead, Warren Buffett was miserable. Instead, the shameless guy Andy Smith rebounded in GE's stock price. When it was great, I chose to sell all the stocks I just bought to escape.

At first, he mocked him for his short-sightedness. Now it seems that the really stupid person has become himself, thinking of the other person's handsome face with a false sun smile, and the indifferent huh, Jeff has a desire to be fierce The urge to punch.

Keke, unfortunately, I ca n’t beat that bastard!

Fortunately, in his hand, the little **** was holding tightly. In the negotiation of the acquisition of NB Global, Jeff has been biting dead and demanding too much, forcing the other party to agree. He is very much conscious of Andy Smith's ambition and hole card. It is clear that they are not worried that the other party will abandon the merger and acquisition plan. After all, only the three major US broadcasters, nb Universal, are the most likely to be acquired, which is definitely a scarce asset. Their general company is also not worried about finding other buyers.

The downturn in the financial market has caused the U.S. stock market to have the same mad cow disease. The rise and fall are irregular. Although GE's stock has fallen for eight consecutive trading days, the stock price has fallen by about $ 3, but because of mergers and acquisitions Supporting the good news of the negotiations, there has been no significant plunge again.

Not like Citibank, which has become a laughing stock, the stock price fluctuates around 1 dollar, everyone is watching a joke and waiting for a miracle below 1 dollar to appear ...

"咚咚"

The rapid knock made Jeff, who was still thinking about the problem, frowned, and when he raised his head, he saw that the company's chief market analyst Quincy Cross crossed the door with a strong push.

"Boss, something went wrong ..."

Jeff frowned even more, reaching out and letting the other person sit down, but Quincy did not sit down, but said with a bitter anxiety, "Just now, our stock price fell below three The U.S. dollar began to plummet, and the result of tracking was that someone was shorting our stock and the other party was strong ... "

"Boss, Mr. Jin Ning has something important to see you ..."

"Jeff, just now, Andy Smith called us to terminate the nb global merger and acquisition negotiations, accusing us of lack of sincerity and refusing to pay liquidated damages. Later, GE will deliberately disrupt the negotiations and conduct commercial fraud. We are suing ... "

"boom!"

"Hey!" Hearing here, even if Jeff Immelt is stupid, he knows who is behind the black hands and inserted a knife. This is to toss GE's stock price to death!

Then, under the explanation of the company's chief analyst, he was fully aware that the other party had a plan and had a pre-planned short-selling behavior against xing, and the selected time node made it impossible for them to fight back. The data has caused the global stock market to fall. Under the panic, even if they spend money to support the market, they are nothing more than a slap in the water. They are given delicious food by greedy monsters who have already opened their mouths.

Jeff grabbed the phone with a cold sweat, and called General Electric ’s holding boss, mg Chase, but unfortunately, the response made Jeff laughed bitterly, and the possibility of supporting the city may completely disappear, but now it is not his panic. At that time, I grabbed my cell phone and rushed to the financial department with the two people in the office.

Looking at the red numbers constantly jumping on the LCD wall, Jeff's face was iron-blue, his fists were clenched, his blue muscles were violent, and his lips were constantly squinting. (U.S. stocks rise in green and fall in red.)

15

14

13 ...

When the stock price plummeted to around 11, Jeff finally couldn't hold his breath. "Start the repurchase program ..."

Buzz

Jeff Immelt pulled his buzzing cellphone out of his pocket with some trembling fingers, and his eyes were staring at the **** red figure in front of him.

"Hello, this is Jeff Immelt ..."

"Good morning, Mr. Immelt, I'm letting Renault, this is the thing, we Vivendi ..."

"boom!"

"Fxxk! You **** **** who should go to **** ..."

Jeff, who had a bit of a smile, turned off the phone after hearing the other person's quick speech. His entire face was completely blackened, and he dropped the phone directly on the wall with a sullen expression and roared loudly. Then, he stretched out his hand and held the table aside, so that his somewhat shaking body could be supported.

At the same time, in the trading room of the Gaia branch of the Financial Street in London, the LCD TV wall was divided into two, with video connections on one side and data on the US stock market on the other.

Andy was standing in front of the LCD TV wall, with one hand in his pocket and the other hand holding a cup of coffee, and behind him were all the eyes of the men with eyes, including coming together to witness a certain moment, watching the lively Robert, Ama Earl and David Dunn.

"Boss, Vivendi announced it."

The corners of Andy's calm face turned up, and a sunny smile appeared, and a flash of sharpness flashed in his eyes. After taking a sip of coffee, he placed the coffee cup on the table beside him.

"Snapped!"

The left hand in the pocket was pulled out and patted with the right hand, so that everyone's attention was focused on him. Andy looked at Arvitelli and Bardstone on the big screen and waited seriously, behind them. It is ready for hundreds of traders.

"Break it down!"

"Received, boss!"

"Start selling!"

Crackling ...

In the London trading hall where the needles could be heard, the sound of keyboards and various shouts holding numbers on the phone were clearly heard.

"$ 097!"

The screen is split in two.

In London, Andy embraces his arms, his chin is victorious, a proud smile that wins the world;

New York, Jeff was pale, sitting on a chair, looking up bitterly at the dark green '097' dazzling numbers.

On the NYSE, all traders opened their mouths, stunned and looked up at General Electric's stock price that fell below one dollar. The air seemed to be frozen and time was frozen.

Since the establishment of Thomas Edison, it has rapidly developed into an outstanding multinational company, representing the benchmark of the most cutting-edge business model in the United States, a great iconic company in the United States, and GE has encountered the 'strange shame' of the world ’s top 500 companies. Is the only company whose stock price has fallen below $ 1!
