American Fortune Life
Chapter 1816: I don't refuse to get more benefits!
A basic common sense clearly recognized by the Western medical community is that a cold caused by a virus is incurable.
So how can a drug be prescribed to treat a viral cold?
Perhaps the reason is simple. It was still in 2005 when the United States Pentagon ordered that all Americans be given bird flu vaccine. Then Secretary of Defense Rams announced that he would allocate a $ 1 billion budget for the Department of Defense to buy and store medicines and vaccines, among which Duffy.
Subsequently, the President of Xiaofei Shoes called and asked Congress to allocate another 2 billion US dollars to buy vaccines. But behind this is that before the US Secretary of Defense Rams was the chairman of the board of a California-based pharmaceutical company, the company happened to have a worldwide exclusive patent for avian influenza vaccine.
The company sold the right to sell medicine to Swiss pharmaceutical giant Rock. He is still the largest shareholder of the pharmaceutical company after he becomes the Secretary of Defense, and he has the right to sell medicines. As a result, the pharmaceutical company's stock price has increased seven-fold, allowing the former defense minister to raise millions of dollars.
Through the financial crisis, let Andy understand one thing: the most powerful weapon is panic. Now the panic caused by swine flu has no effect when it is light, and it is too much trouble. It is just right now.
And creating panic is far more than just selling slow-moving drugs. Vaccination is also the most exciting aspect of scams. If it is eventually upgraded to the 6th level due to the epidemic situation, then the drugs and vaccines that have not undergone the entire test process can be put into use directly!
That's right, it was put into use directly. We must know that this regulation is naturally understandable when a real epidemic occurs, but this is not the case now, and the premise of serious epidemics does not exist. In this case, the vaccine that gives people a safety risk is dangerous.
Of course, the world is so big, there are always all kinds of voices, believe or not, all in oneself!
Andy was too entangled in this matter and didn't want to figure it out. He only needed to confirm that the swine flu was harmless to himself. As for how much he was inside, he was not interested in it. Since standing at the top of the pyramid After seeing the many truths of this world, he knew a lot of things. The international struggles and other things are real and objective. To look at the problem, we must have a world-wide vision and look at any large-scale event. Who is behind, who has the benefits, who has been harmed, and who is indulging, can they benefit from it ...
No way, who made him Andy Smith one of the top vested interests in the world!
According to the results of the think tank analysis, if the WHO decides to declare an epidemic [] the biggest consequence of the disease emergency is to sponsor the profits of those pharmaceutical giants, the scale can reach 10 billion euros!
Therefore, a phenomenon appeared. The US stock market, the pharmaceutical industry skyrocketed, the European stock market, the swine flu medicine sector skyrocketed, and the Tianchao stock market, billions of injections into the pharmaceutical sector every day. .
Andy, who has been in the pharmaceutical sector for a long time, naturally made a lot of money. Although not the biggest winner, he is also a vested interest. Therefore, his media did not question or disclose the so-called The truth, because this nai cheese is too big, even if he is willful, he will not go against the entire medical and medical industry.
$ 130 million!
This is the money the think tank has earned him from the stocks of global pharmaceutical companies so far. Compared to his assets, the money is really not much. However, this is just the beginning. It will rise and the profit will be more.
Of course, even if it earns 200 million or 300 million more, for Andy, it is just a few more numbers. However, Andy likes to win and keeps winning, he doesn't want to fail.
Because of the way to trade, to be invincible, to win the enemy. A loss of 50% of one million becomes half a million, while the increase of half a million to one million requires 100% of profit. Every success this time, although it will only make him take a small step. But every failure made him take a big step backwards. It takes an hour to walk from the first floor of the Empire State Building to the top floor. But jumping from the top of the building, as long as thirty seconds, you can return to the bottom of the building.
No way, this is the urgency that his plug-in advantage is constantly disappearing with the unstoppable progress of time. Time is everything. Life is not just a strategic struggle, to some extent it is a competition of time and life. 15 years ago, even if only 5% of continuous profits were made each year, the total increase in wealth was enough to be proud of the world.
"A sneeze"
Andy clicked the mouse to close the video window and ended the meeting. He sneezed abruptly, rubbing his nose while frowning, and spit out, "Who is talking about me behind this?"
Wearing a blue T-shirt, white bib pants, a pink bow, and a pretty face, hydrating red yan, the girl-like sister Ling was sitting while reading a novel by Andy and heard Andy playing He sneezed and mumbled, put down the book with a smile on his face, stood up and walked to the open floor door. As he pulled the floor door, he said softly, "Oh, sometimes I really feel like you are a heavenly person." You know even this kind of stalk, just close the door to the ground, the mountain wind is still a bit cold ... "
"Is the mountain breeze? I still feel that someone is calculating me behind my back ..." Andy frowned and shook his head, in exchange for Sister Ziling's helpless grin.
Andy's casual voicing really caught him. At this moment, there are indeed people, no, a group of people are discussing him.
The United States was once known as the "center of the universe", the capital of Massachusetts and the largest city, Boston.
"... We hope this well-known newspaper can be maintained, but if the Boston Globe union continues to reject the spending cuts plan, this old American newspaper will have to stop publishing!"
In the conference room of the Boston Globe headquarters building, Arthur Suzberg, chairman of the New York Times Company, was gloomy, with a hint of anger and helplessness in his eyes. He didn't care because he said this in the conference room. The Boston Globe's editor-in-chief and executives looked terrified.
The New York Times Corporation invested $ 1.1 billion in 1993 to acquire the Boston Globe. But with the intensification of the American newspaper industry. The 137-year-old newspaper lost $ 50 million last year, and this year's loss momentum is unabated, and it is expected to lose $ 85 million.
The daily circulation of the Boston Globe has fallen by 11% as more readers get news online and marketers cut spending during the economic downturn. Coupled with the parent company's New York Times company's financial situation is also stretched, originally intended to continue to lay off staff, cut expenses to overcome difficulties, but the 13 affiliates of the newspaper firm firmly refused to give in on the benefits of 20 million US dollars, no way, the company only Can make a decision to close the newspaper.
The decision, however, made the Boston Globe staff, union representatives and some civilians angry at the "threat" of the New York Times Company, which is now holding demonstrations in front of the newspaper headquarters building in Boston.
However, these demonstrations did not change anything. The interests have always been the only value for entrepreneurs. As for the employees who are now looking for troubles for these corporate bosses, unions, etc., they are just a bunch of poor worms who are unemployed. Nothing more.
"We are still talking to the unions, cutting costs, and letting them understand that because of the current economic environment, the Boston Globe is inevitable and the newspaper is closed. No one wants to see it." The editor-in-chief of the newspaper hurriedly said that he really did not want to see the newspaper office close.
"We can lay off staff and reduce costs. We can talk to the trade unions seriously. They will make compromises. It is difficult to find buyers when the Boston Globe is sold. The cost of closing is really high." The Boston Globe's eo actively persuaded that he did not want the 137-year-old newspaper to close in his hands.
The cost of closing is even higher, and it touched the nerves of New York Times Company Chairman Arthur Suzberg. There is no way. Under the current economic situation, the New York Times Company's life is not good. At the end of 2008, it reported a loss of 1.1 billion US dollars. In order to maintain, the company also had to sell 21 floors of the Manhattan headquarters building in New York to raise $ 225 million to ease the financial strain.
and many more……
With a flash of light, he couldn't help looking around the crowd for a week, and then said, "Maybe it's not difficult to find a buyer."
He said that everyone's eyes were focused on his face, he said lightly: "Andy Smith, our richest man in the new world, may be very interested!"
