Chapter 344 Mutual Utilization

"Georgina? Are you here too? I heard that your father is already preparing to run for independence!"

Jamie Dimon didn't say hello to the two, but said something that shocked Yang Cheng's jaw with a look of surprise.

Running independently means Michael Bloomberg is independent, but when did this old guy leave the Elephant Party? Why doesn't he know?

Subconsciously turned her head to look at Georgina with a calm face, only to hear her answer with a calm smile, "Father does have this intention."

Yang Cheng lowered his head and smiled wryly. He realized that he might have been tricked, no, more precisely, he was used, and it was not right. It can only be said that the two of them were using each other!

Quickly cleared up his emotions, straightened his expression, raised his head again, met Warren Buffett's teasing eyes, and laughed at himself, "Don't look at me like that, Warren, I don't know."

Georgina bit her lip, with a little apology, gently pinched Yang Cheng's waist, and gave a look to explain later.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, and Jamie Dimon quickly changed the subject, "Jason, you are welcome. Are your parents here?"

Yang Cheng took out the excuse he had prepared long ago, "I'm sorry Jamie, my parents flew back to Texas early this morning, so I can only attend on their behalf."

Jamie Dimon couldn't hear such an obvious excuse that couldn't be more obvious, but he couldn't break it, otherwise everyone would lose face, so he could only pretend to regret and regret, "It's a pity, I came tonight A lot of good friends."

After a pause, he looked at George Soros, and then remembered to help introduce, "George, this is Jason Yang, the founder of New Era Media, the son of Yuanshan Yangsen, a leader of the younger generation, you have to know him."

Soros looked a little fierce, but he was very kind in private. He said with a smile, "I don't need to introduce this young man who has been in the limelight in Manhattan recently. The little guy has done a good job. If it weren't for me When you retire, you must take a share in your company."

Hearing Soros' words of encouragement, Yang Cheng was very useful. No matter how "ruthless" his previous reputation was, his position in the financial world is unshakable, and he can be appreciated by this financial tycoon , but the dream of countless people, although not too excited, Yang Cheng still forgot the little depression of finding out that he was being used before, and said very happily, "Thank you, Mr. Soros, the next round of financing of New Era Media welcomes your family very much." Fund entry."

There is no need to be humble in front of these people, you just go along with what they say, after all, it is not easy to praise anyone when you are in their position, once you really start to praise, that is really agreeing with your ability, this Isn't being modest at times a slap in the face?

Soros smiled and waved his hands, jokingly said, "You can just call me George. Your company is expanding too fast. I am only a small business now, and I can't afford it."

Everyone laughed. No one would really think that Soros could not afford to invest. The old stock god is also a naughty boy. At this moment, he said, "He doesn't play down, so don't forget about me, Jason. No matter how many shares you release in the next round , Berkshire eats them all."

Yang Cheng was in pain for a while. This performance of wealth and wealth was about to catch up with the coal boss. Seeing the serious expression of the old stock god, he tentatively said half-jokingly, "Warren, if you are really optimistic, why don't I sell the company to you?" Right? Just give me 30 billion."

Several other people were not familiar with Yang Cheng, and they were not sure about his attitude, so they all showed surprised eyes. Aren't young people very possessive? How could it be so easy to sell the company?

Among the people present, Warren was the one who was most familiar with Yang Cheng. After thinking for a while, he laughed, "30 billion is impossible, but 20 billion I am willing to take all of it."

Yang Cheng understood Warren's meaning. The reason why he said about selling the company in a joking tone was to see how much his company was worth in the eyes of predators.

Now it seems that in the eyes of the old stock gods, based on the valuation of the last round of financing, it is worth buying at a premium of about 30%.

This is enough, and having the words of the old stock god to endorse him has also laid a solid foundation for the next round of financing. If you don’t accept a valuation of 20 billion US dollars, you will roll as far as you can, and you won’t be taken to play at all.

The topic ended here, but it was crossed by Yang Cheng in a few words. This is not his home field, and it is inappropriate to always talk about the company's affairs.

After Yang Cheng greeted several unfamiliar people, Jamie Dimon sighed deeply, looked at Yang Cheng and Georgina and said, "No matter how many people join us this time, the increase in campaign funds is It is an indisputable fact that everyone must be prepared.”

Seeing that the topic was brought up on the election campaign, Yang Cheng wanted to withdraw from the discussion. This was not something she should participate in, but Georgina held her tightly and couldn't move. This girl didn't know what to think about. Can she participate in this matter randomly? ?

But he couldn't drag it with brute force, so he had to bite the bullet and stay, but his eyes were lowered, and he was not prepared to speak at all.

Dan Webb echoed, "Back then, the Elephant Party spent only $100,000 to make Lincoln the sixteenth president of the United States, but a hundred years later, in 1960, $100,000 was only enough to make our Candidates appeared on the national television network for 30 minutes, and in the last term, our Mr. Ao Guanhai spent a record 2.4 billion dollars to win the final victory. It is foreseeable that this election will leave a mark in history. The next astronomical figure."

It must be emphasized that the US general election fundraising channels are different from those of other countries. Most of them come from private donations, which are very flexible. For donors, this donation is actually equivalent to investment. Investing in a Presidential candidates, in exchange for at least 4 years of zz dividends in the future, the risk is not too big, and the benefits can be expected, so it is naturally easy to accept.

Of course, this money cannot be misappropriated by candidates at will. The agency that the federal government supervises campaign funds is called the "Federal Election Commission" (fec).

This committee does not specifically manage the election, its responsibility is only to monitor the fundraising and use of candidates, political parties and political action committees.

The Election Funds Act requires political parties and political action committees to truthfully declare their financial status, including cash on hand, expenditures, loan repayments, and balances, on a quarterly or monthly basis.

Under the protection of the law, as citizens, there are many ways to obtain campaign funds collected by candidates. People can request inspections from the parties concerned or the Federal Election Commission (the information about elected local officials is the corresponding local agency). It is almost impossible to obtain detailed information from relevant websites such as the Federal Election Commission, and it is almost impossible to embezzle donations without being discovered. A considerable part of the reason for the failure of the future Mrs. Zipperton lies in this point.

Therefore, the money for the U.S. general election must be spent, and the key is whether it is worth it. The reason why Jamie Dimon brought up this topic is to test the attitude of several main donors, whether they are willing to pay this high price!
