Chapter 502: The Madness Will End

With the beginning of a new year, mankind has officially entered the 1990s. Obviously, this year is not very good, especially for people with foot basins, this is a very bad era.

In the past ten years, for the US emperor, there is not much to miss. A very bad inflation, coupled with a serious economic crisis. Well, the United States is really unlucky enough.

A bomber with a foot basin hovered over New York. What the plane dropped was not bombs, but various electronic products and cars.

This is the cover of Time Magazine. You can imagine how deep the resentment is!

In the past two years, various proposals aimed at the foot basin have not stopped at all. Many congressmen stubbornly believe that the foot basin has launched a financial war against US imperialism, and their goal is to destroy the foundation of the US.

Hehe, William White believes that people who eat melons may think so, how could those famous economists make such stupid mistakes.

Don't you really know that the consortium in the United States is stirring up wind and rain in the footbath. At this time, everyone is fattening into pigs.

A foot basin launched a financial war?

Don't joke, all of this can't be hidden at all. Isn't the sudden increase in various bearish agreements the work of Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs?

The knives had been sharpened, and they were ready to kill, given the right opportunity. Your newsweekly is also very interesting, and you still have time to tease the foot basin.

"Boss, there are rumors that the land tax will be levied on the foot basin, or that kind of punitive tax. Affected by this, the Nikkei index fell off a cliff."

"Tsk, what day is it?"

"January 12."

Filson was speechless, the boss was playing the role of a good father recently. This is forgetting the date.

"Land tax? That's impossible, right? If it's the same as the capital gains tax on Treasure Island, it's really over."

In order to curb excessive speculation, Baodao once played such a game. The result is good, there are no speculators, and there are no investors. Such a sudden tax increase will definitely destroy the financial market completely.

"Now it's just rumors. The prices of land and real estate are still stable, and there is no way to look at related stocks."

"Wait a minute, didn't you say that Panasonic plans to buy Universal Pictures a while ago? How about their stock prices?"

"Boss, their average price-earnings ratio is 100 times. There is no suspense for the stock to fall, and it will not affect their business too much. The price is close to 7 billion US dollars. I really can't figure it out. Why didn't MCA sell it earlier."

"Haha, I'm not greedy enough. It's just that seven billion won't work, and at most it will be sixty. If you don't sell it quickly, you might not be able to sell it."

William White really guessed right, MCA is now complaining. If this business is concluded, not only will they not lose money, but they can also make a lot of money back. Well now, the sudden avalanche of the foot basin stock market dealt them a fatal blow.

In fact, American Music Company thought too much. If it wasn't for fear of William White, Panasonic would even have the intention to directly acquire White Films. Temporary fluctuations in stock prices will not affect their overall strategy.

There are many reasons for buying American Films. Disneyland is crazily making money in the foot basin, how can the people in the foot basin remain indifferent?

Since the foot basin people like Hollywood so much, then buy it. Don't forget, Universal Studios is also a very good project.

Well, they tried too. There is no doubt that the one who should buy back the foot basin is Disney. The foot basin people's covetousness for Disney goes far beyond Universal Studios.

However, William White didn't buy it, and directly pushed back against Goldman Sachs' lobbying. Didn't even listen to the other side's offer.

For William White's waywardness, Goldman Sachs expressed admiration. However, facing a master who is not short of money, there is really nothing to say.

What Goldman Sachs didn't know was that William White was afraid to listen. He wasn't sure if he would sell. You know, the foot basin people are crazy. Once they come up with an incredible offer, William White will definitely get into trouble.

Universal Studios, which is seriously losing money, is worth 7 billion. How much is Disney, which has always had a high level of profitability, worth? Few people really make it clear.

"Filson, Hollywood's inflated valuation, I'm afraid it won't last for too long, right?"

"It is estimated that it is almost the same. If nothing unexpected, MCA will choose to reduce the price."

"Hahaha, isn't this a bitch? At least 500 million US dollars are gone. Look at these sluts who dare to be hypocritical."

"Boss, if the two film companies merge, the structure of Hollywood may change, and attention should be appropriately increased."

"Well, I see, I will arrange for someone to pay attention."

Although William White said so, he really didn't think so in his heart. The enmity between these two families has become so great that it is impossible to have any cooperation at all.

Panasonic is a traditional footbath company, while Suomi is already a mixed race. In terms of business philosophy, Somi is more like a US company.

How could Suomi, who had suffered a dark loss in the video recorder format, cooperate with his deadly rival. Only the hatred between peers is Hongguoguo, and it is not concealed at all.

The acquisition of Universal Pictures can be regarded as the final battle. Although the plummeting stock market worried the foot basin, it did not rise to the level of national security.

In the eyes of these entrepreneurs, the stock market in the foot basin is too crazy. If it continues like this, there may be no one to start a business. It’s okay if everyone goes to speculate in stocks and real estate, making money is too easy.

"The package price of 6 billion, if you still disagree, find an intermediary again, there is nothing we can do."

The eyes of the boss of MCA are red. Just a few years ago, he was talking about tens of billions of assets. It's only been less than a month, and it's actually a 50% discount.

"Damn shorty, what does their stock price plummet have anything to do with us. We have absolutely no way of accepting such an offer."

The old guy is still chattering, and the people at Goldman Sachs have already started packing. The old guy on the opposite side didn't see the situation clearly at all. Six billion U.S. dollars is already a high premium. In Goldman Sachs' view, there is no possibility of MCA refusing.

They didn't expect that it was so easy to convince the foot basin people here, but another moth came out of MCA. Nima, if you could sign the agreement years ago, wouldn't you be able to have fun now? Our commission can be secured.

To secure a deal, we've reduced our fees. This damn old guy, who didn't buy it at all, was second to none, and started to dream again.

If it's White Pictures, they really have the confidence. Why do you?

Seeing the people from Goldman Sachs leave, the place panicked too. It's not that they don't want to continue to be hypocritical, Universal really can't hold on anymore.

The free fall of the Nikkei index is no stranger to the people of the United States, they also experienced it in 1987.

The opinion of most professionals, including Acon's economists, is that the Acon economy remains strong. This wave of decline is very similar to the US stock market in 1987. At most, it will take a year and a half, and the footbath stock market will rise again. They are convinced of this.
