Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Second Friends Break
ICQ's press conference was timely and handled fairly decisively.
Wisger's eloquent assurance has indeed restored the confidence of many investors, and the rapidly falling stock price has finally been eased.
However...
Even so, ICQ lost as much as $220 million in market value in just a few hours.
If this was a year ago, Wesger and other icq executives and shareholders would definitely not regard it as the same thing. After all, the loss is only paper wealth, and the loss of market value will be slowed down sooner or later.
$220 million in market cap loss, what does it count?
Even an additional $100 million or $200 million is not a big problem for the huge icq company.
However, today is different!
Microsoft's MSN software, aggressive. It takes advantage of the global dominance of Microsoft's system software and the rogue means of forced installation, its market share continues to rise, and it continues to snatch icq's market in the field of instant messaging on a global scale.
Under the crisis, the market value loss of 220 million US dollars is quite considerable.
This time the incident, not to mention let icq hurt, it is bound to make things worse.
"Visig, don't forget, you are the chairman of icq, you do not represent you personally, you represent the entire company. You are primarily responsible for the loss caused this time, and I will raise a complaint against you at the board of directors. Impeachment." Vardy said coldly.
Also the founder of icq, Vardy has been thinking about the position of CEO of the company for a long time.
In fact, this time Wisger made a mistake, and Vardy was quite happy, even though the company suffered huge losses.
Wisig nodded heavily: "I see."
Vardy added: "And Steve Bing is a big mouth, you must draw a clear line with him, this time Mr. Wald did not make a full shot, he was already reciting a piece of incense that we icq once had, which is considered to be light. Let it go, otherwise we will never get away easily."
Steve Bing?
As soon as he mentioned this rich three-generation, playboy, Wisger couldn't help but get very angry.
The legendary pig teammate,
It's him Steve Bean!
If it wasn't for his big mouth to blame Zucker, the dignified icq chairman of Wisger, would he have been taunted and targeted by a group of shareholders and executives?
Lost a big face!
......
In the evening that day.
A coffee shop in downtown Los Angeles.
Wisger waited here early, ordered a cup of coffee alone, and quietly looked into the distance outside the window, no one knew what he was thinking at the moment.
"Boss, here comes Mr. Steve Bean."
An assistant reminded.
Hearing this, Wisig just came back to his senses and said, "Welcome him in."
"Yes, boss."
After a while, Steve Bean stepped confidently into Wisger's eyes.
Steve Bean burst out laughing when he saw Wisger.
"Visig, my good friend. You saw the overwhelming news this morning, and I gave you a sigh of relief. Humph! He's a Zucker Wald, nothing more than Just a lucky guy, if it wasn't for your icq that made him a lot of money, I think he is the same thing now, and it is impossible to have a net worth of tens of billions."
Steve bragged.
For Zucker, Steve is very jealous.
Not to mention the tens of billions of net worth for the time being, just Zhu Ke's film career, almost a movie, a movie, which made Steve very depressed and unhappy.
Thinking of him, Steve inherited a full $600 million in assets from his grandfather in the 1980s when he was only 18 years old, and I don’t know how many people envy him; then, he kept investing in movies, every time it was millions The investment in US dollars has now been more than ten years, and the invested capital is no less than 150 million US dollars.
But the result?
Except for occasional success, all chances are lost!
Mind broke!
"Ha ha!"
After Steve Bing ordered a cup of coffee, he murmured: "Now that the news all over the United States is overwhelming, I see how this ungrateful guy will gain a foothold in the United States in the future. Of course, even if it can't cause him financial losses, but His face was also lost."
After a pause: "Visig, my friend, is quite interesting."
MMP!
Fuck your grandma!
At this moment, Rao is Visig, who has always had a good mentality, and almost couldn't help beating the stupid guy in front of him!
The assistant on the side couldn't help but twitch at the moment.
"Mr. Zucker Wald is the lucky guy, but you, Steve Bean, are the luckiest guy? When you were only 18 years old, you inherited his grandfather's $600 million inheritance. Looking around the world, How many people can match. You are a person born with a golden spoon, otherwise you are nothing, you prodigal."
Wisger's assistant started the rhythm of frantic ranting.
Of course, he would only curse in his heart.
spendthrift?
As it turns out, what the assistant said was correct.
In the future, um, at the end of June 2020, Steve Bing completely squandered all his $600 million in assets, and all the mansions, planes, yachts, art collections, etc., were all lost.
I have dated countless female stars;
Rumors of illegitimate children are flying all over the sky;
I fell out with my parents, and I tore with my sister in court;
Even the dignified global gambling tycoon, one of the founders of the Las Vegas gaming industry, the owner of the MGM Hotel and the former Hollywood giant MGM Studios, Kirk, who is known as the "Gambling King" Kerkorian, and his fiancée were all belly fattened by Steve Bean.
The 80-year-old gambling king Kirk Kerkorian is happy to be a father!
All the old faces are lost!
He was riddled with all kinds of negative news, and in the end, he was profligate and prodigal.
"Visig, my best friend. There's a new nightclub on the 9th block of Los Angeles. I'll take you to see it tonight." Steve sent an invitation.
Play?
"Humph!"
Wisig immediately stopped hiding and said coldly: "Steve Bing, you are ashamed to say that today's overwhelming news, do you know how much Iicq has lost because of your big mouth? Today On Nasdaq, the market value of our icq plummeted by $220 million, do you know that?”
"This......!"
Rao is a playboy-style Steve Bing, and he also knows what the loss of $220 million in market value means for icq, which is now in dire straits.
"oh~ no!"
Steve Bing said quickly: "Sorry, I just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief for you, I didn't think so much, I..."
Halfway through, he couldn't go on.
With such a huge loss, how could it be possible to recover the loss with just one or two sentences?
Suddenly, Steve Bean had a flash of inspiration, and his face was full of anger: "Vesger, is your loss this time, is that bastard Zucker Wald doing something wrong?! Hmph, I knew it. Don't worry, I'll find a place for you, I'll find him now~"
Before he could finish speaking, he got up angrily and planned to go to Zhu Ke to settle accounts.
"enough!"
Enduring anger is like the eve of a volcano.
Wisger said savagely: "Do you still think that you have not caused enough trouble for me? You think that Wald guy is easy to mess with! This time he didn't use the media power of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group, which is already merciful, just A small punishment, but if you really piss him off, do you think I and icq are not dying fast enough?!"
Steve Bean's pupils shrank immediately.
He was also a little angry.
You Wisig is my good friend, how can you say that to me?
"Why don't I cause you enough trouble? I'm fighting for you!" Steve Bean said loudly.
"No more speculative words~"
Wesger said with a sense of loss: "Perhaps we should not be the same people. After all, you were born in the third generation of wealthy people. You don't know the hardships of the people, and you have never suffered any crimes in your life."
After a pause, he said again: "In the future, don't come to me again!"
After he finished speaking, he ignored Steve's shocked and angry expression, and quickly left the cafe with his assistant.
Steve Bing was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.
"I was... scolded by my best friend?"
"And, what he said, is he going to break with me and part ways?!"
At this moment, Steve Bing's heart was completely filled with monstrous anger.
Zucker Wald, we're not done~
" "The first more is sent.
