Chapter 1299 Surprising Appetite Rules of Playing Cards

Skye's answer made the eyes of the major shareholder of General Electric a little dazed. At this moment, he was really surprised by Osborne's big appetite.

Although it is said that this stock market turmoil has not only affected General Electric, and many established companies have also encountered the same setbacks, but if someone puts their minds on General Electric and ExxonMobil at the same time, they plan to At the same time, if they took advantage of the fire and robbed them, the first reaction of the major shareholders was to spray him.

The reason is very simple. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Just looking at how much money Osborne spent to acquire their shares at this time shows how difficult this matter is. Tens of billions of funds have to be spent to take advantage of this time to acquire most of General Electric's shares. As the world's largest oil company, Exxon Mobil has been affected by new energy companies headed by Stark in recent years. impact, but after all, its size is there, and if you want to acquire it, you will only pay more than General Electric.

And now that Osborne has done such a thing, the only thought that this gives to the major shareholders is that Osborne must be crazy. It’s okay if it’s just General Electric. After all, the industries under General Electric and the Osborne Group have some intersections. Taking advantage of the acquisition of General Electric now, as long as they can survive the next turmoil and shock, then the Osborne Group may A leap forward will be ushered in. Exxon Mobil is different.

The oil industry is a sunset industry in today's world, and most of the developed countries in the world have now begun to replace the traditional position of oil with new energy. Therefore, ExxonMobil is still the largest oil company in the world in name, but in fact, their market and prospects have already begun to decline.

Osborne was different, because they held the nuclear solar technology contract of Dr. Otto at that time, so their development direction was also inclined to new energy. And in this case, those Exxon Mobil will only be a tasteless to them. It is almost impossible for them to get too much benefit from ExxonMobil. On the contrary, they will fall into crisis because of ExxonMobil's drag.

Not a good thing, especially in these turbulent days. Maybe just because of such an extra burden, Osborne will face the same situation as them. Of course, major shareholders will not say such things. He would only smile and shake Skye's hand, and then say such a sentence from the bottom of his heart.

"Then I wish you luck, and I hope you can take advantage of this opportunity to succeed."

"Of course, there is no doubt about it." Skye replied with the same bright smile. And just after he and the major shareholder finished the greetings, the agent named Mark had already returned to her with a lot of contracts.

"There is no problem, Ms. Johnson, we already hold 43% of General Electric's shares. As long as we negotiate with the bank, General Electric will belong to the Osborne Group.

Let us congratulate ourselves, after today, Osborne will become the largest enterprise in the world. Osborne will become a symbol of an era, and we are the heralds of this era. "

Lawyer Mark's expression was obviously very excited. As for his excitement, Skye can understand. In fact, even she herself has an unreal illusion because of all this. The famous General Electric just became theirs? And behemoths like ExxonMobil?

Although he was very well aware of the reasons for all this, Skye couldn't help feeling at this time that the Stark government really played a big hand.

That's right, everything was arranged by the Stark government. I don't know how Tony Stark negotiated with the opposite country. He actually borrowed a huge amount of money from that country to impact his own country's capital market. And under this almost crazy capital impact, almost most of the old and well-known companies have been impacted to varying degrees. Seriously, like General Electric, it was forced to replace it with a master. And the easy ones will not be too easy, the impact of capital makes them almost have to strangle their waistbands to live. It is conceivable that in order to survive, they will have to take a series of actions.

It can be said that if this financial and stock market turmoil is not too targeted, it might lead to a national turmoil like the financial crisis. And even if the matter has not developed to such a point for the time being, all this cannot be taken lightly.

The reason is simple, the consortium has not yet realized the danger, and they have not exerted their strength. And similarly, all of this is only the first step for the Stark government's plan, and their subsequent follow-up actions will inevitably be more severe than what they are doing now, and the impact it will bring, is completely incalculable.

This point, the Stark government itself is also aware of it. But their current situation is inevitable. If you don't take advantage of the present to create a favorable situation as soon as possible, then wait for those opponents to react, and they will only be passive.

Passive and active, this is a key factor affecting the outcome. As the leader, Tony's character determines that he wants to be the active party. So he didn't care about these influences at all, but resolutely started the next step.

"Is everything ready? Is the capital in our hands enough for us to stabilize the next situation?"

"At present, we have enough capital in our hands. Whether it is General Electric and Exxon Mobil controlled by the Osborne Group, or Johnson & Johnson, Wal-Mart and other companies controlled by our capital. We They have already obtained enough decision-making power and voice. As long as there is no huge turmoil, the actions of these large enterprises will be under our control. In other words, before the consortiums have time to respond, we have already learned from them A piece of flesh was cut off from his body. However, they should be about to respond."

Maria, who set up a special project team to monitor all this, replied like this, but when she answered, she also appropriately expressed her worries.

"Morgan and Rockefeller have begun to send contacts to communicate with the capital of the opposite country. Although you have an agreement with them, it is difficult to guarantee that there are many people, and they will not know anything from those people. In addition, various financial groups The banks under their name have also begun to take action. I doubt they will contribute to stabilizing the stock market, and even say to regain the shares of those companies.”

"Don't worry about the banks. It takes time for banks to raise capital, and they may not be able to raise so much capital in such a short period of time. Besides, these companies will be contributed by us because they need to raise capital on the stock market To maintain their own basic operations. The current situation is that we and Osborne have enough funds in their hands to ensure their operations. We can completely stop trading in the stock market during this period, so that those banks cannot find to the mouth."

"The consumption will be very high, and we may not be able to last too much time."

Maria Hill reminded that she knew the current economic situation on their side. Although there are a lot of reserves, they are several large multinational companies after all. Their consumption has always been huge. Even with their current funds, it may be difficult to support a long stalemate. A quick fix is ​​their only solution, but a quick fix for these capital consortiums with deep-rooted influence in this country is not something that can be solved just by talking about it. It was difficult, and right now, all Tony was doing was rising to the challenge.

"You're right, we can't delay too many things. But we can't act rashly either. Being fully prepared is the best way we can deal with them."

Tony explained, and began to think about it in his heart. The consortium is different from other enemies. Facing other enemies, they can physically destroy him. But in the face of such enemies of capital, they can only use the rules of capital and the power of law to judge them.

Therefore, in this war, the use of violence has become an unacceptable option. Unless the opponent uses violence first, they absolutely cannot use such means. Because once they use such a precedent, let alone whether it will trigger a war on the mainland of the United States, it is unimaginable for them to destroy the order of the United States alone. In this country founded on democracy and freedom, if the national government no longer plays its cards according to the rules and starts to be the first to trample on the rules of this country, then the consequences it will cause are absolutely unimaginable.

The collapse of the system is sometimes more serious than the disaster. Today's Indian government is an example. Imagine if the Indian government still exists, would any Indians be willing to support such a government?

By the same token, if the Stark government tramples on the consistent insistence of the United States, then he will completely lose the support of the Americans. And at that time, even if he could destroy all his enemies, it would only be a result of self-destruction in the end. That is not something the Stark government can bear, so at this time, they can only play their cards honestly and according to the rules.

And the first step in following the rules is to walk your own path and let your opponent have nowhere to go! At this point, the Stark government has already begun to lay out the layout, and everything they are doing now is laying the groundwork for this layout.
