Chapter 2538 Another Stab in the Back

At such a moment, disturbed by such questions, the sour and refreshing taste is like the taste of seven-year-old sauerkraut, eighty-year-old vinegar, and a hundred pounds of tangerine peel.

At this time, Feng Yiping deeply understood a sentence, what is meant by chatting for a while and chasing his wife to the crematorium.

So, why did I say on the Oprah show that I like Nicole Kidman and other Hollywood female stars?

"How could there be someone like you?" He reached out and lifted a strand of Ma Ling's hair. "You are so clean and pure, as refreshing as a lily; so smart and clear, like a gurgling stream in the mountains; so delicate and innocent, like a lily. It's a deer walking in the forest,"

"You are so light, fresh, gentle and lively, delicate but not worldly. Looking at you, you will feel that the beauty in the world is nothing more than this,"

"You are so vindictive and clever," Feng Yiping gently touched her face and stared at her, "How can someone like you, an elf who fell into the mortal world, be like you?"

The original joking in Ma Ling's eyes had disappeared, replaced by hot affection. She turned her palm into a hook and hooked Feng Yiping over. At this time, even her lips were burning.

Feng Yiping also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, otherwise he might have to read Dream of Red Mansions.

In the swimming pool, there is no wind and waves...

…………

When the weather calmed down and the clouds settled and the rain stopped, the two of them huddled on a deck chair, neither wanting to move.

Feng Yiping kissed Ma Ling on the forehead with her eyes closed. This was indeed a lesson in life. If you change the place, you will have different experiences and feelings about the same thing.

The two people just cuddled together quietly, no one said a word, and the room was so quiet that you could hear their slight breathing and their heartbeats.

It sounded as if their heartbeats were all in sync.

After a while, Ma Ling licked her lips and sat up with difficulty, "I have to go."

"Don't go back to the company, ask for leave," Feng Yiping took her back into his arms.

Ma Ling closed her eyes and lay on top of him, "It's not the company, it's the children who are coming soon,"

"That's okay," Feng Yiping hugged her and didn't let go.

"Haha," Ma Ling rubbed his face a few times, "Then I will lie with you for another ten minutes, okay?"

"Twenty minutes," Feng Yiping countered.

Ma Ling looked at the wall and said, "Fifteen minutes at most."

Because, in half an hour, the children will be sent here.

The reason why she and Huang Jingping are currently getting along fairly well is because they have been following some unwritten rules.

For example, when Feng Yiping was in this house, it was not easy for the two of them to be alone with Feng Yiping.

Of course, together, that is even more impossible.

Fifteen minutes later, she finally broke free from Feng Yiping's arms and realized that it might not be appropriate to go to the company in the afternoon because her pants were still floating in the swimming pool.

Go out at noon and change into another set of clothes to go to the company? For a beautiful executive like her who is already eye-catching in the company, doing so is providing fodder for gossip.

But it turns out that sweet words are really very destructive to them. Before leaving, she was still as tender as water when they kissed her goodbye.

You know, what she was wearing at this time was a pair of Feng Yiping's pants, which were quite ill-fitting.

She had only been gone for ten minutes when Feng Yiping moved from the house to the lawn in the backyard. With a cry of "Wow!", Amanda and Vincent walked around the corner, opened their hands, and ran towards him with laughter. Come over.

…………

At this time, Bear Stearns' emergency board meeting was still in progress.

Some directors are unwilling to accept the result of being controlled by the government, while some directors seem to be resigned to their fate and are already discussing the price of the acquisition.

Bear Stearns CEO Alan Schwartz was exhausted. He glanced at the directors who were working on their own, got up, left the meeting room, and returned to his office.

At noon, when he received a call from Paulson saying that the only way out for Bear Stearns besides bankruptcy was to accept government control, he did not accept it readily.

At the beginning of the year, they were still a company with nearly $400 billion in assets, although their tangible capital was only $11.1 billion.

Yes, the leverage is a bit high, with the leverage ratio exceeding 35. However, in the history of Bear Stearns, they have also used higher leverage, and haven't they all gone through it smoothly?

As a former "super salesman" on Wall Street, he did not want Bear Stearns to be acquired by others.

Acquisitions are possible, but not at a time when the company is on the verge of bankruptcy. Such acquisitions are tantamount to unconditional surrender.

Although there was not much cash left, and the remaining assets that could be used as collateral were not of much value, he still did not give up hope.

He took out his phone book again and called his colleagues who were playing in the club with him at the beginning of the month. His request was not high, just a short-term loan.

But he made five calls in a row, but failed to contact an old friend. Although he was still lucky, all the bankers actually knew that Bear Stearns had no credit. How could they at this time? Maybe even take Alan’s call?

But Allen, who had been awarded "Wall Street's Super Salesman", still had hope at this time. He felt that as long as he could persist for a few more days and persist through this weekend, there might be a turnaround next week.

Because they are Bear Stearns.

Just when he was about to continue making phone calls, there was a knock on the door, and Vice President Wilson walked in hurriedly, his face pale, "Alan, you have to take a look at this,"

"Wilson, why don't you go home and rest first?"

"Rest?" Wilson smiled miserably, "Soon we will have plenty of time to rest."

Allen took the piece of paper and looked at it, then stood up angrily, "Who did you get this from?"

"The Wall Street Journal reporter," Wilson said, "will be in the paper tomorrow."

"Goldman Sachs!" Allen slapped the table hard, then sat down slumped, "It's okay, you go home and rest, Wilson."

It's true that nothing happened.

That piece of paper was an internal email from Goldman Sachs. The content of the email was their judgment on the next trend of Bear Stearns: Bear Stearns’ credit has collapsed, and investors and hedge funds will soon erupt like a flash flood. Bear Stearns evacuates...

For Bear Stearns at this time, this was undoubtedly a fatal email.

With this email, Allen believed that the torrent in the email would surely break out in advance.

Sure enough, right after, he heard the phones and cell phones everywhere in the building ringing desperately.

The one on his desk was no exception.

The secretary knocked on the door and walked in, "Sir,"

He waved his hand and said, "I'm not taking any calls,"

It was already dark at this time, and in the huge office, only the desk lamp illuminated the small area where he was.

…………

At almost 8 o'clock in the evening, ****'s Jamie Dimon received a call from Geithner, "Bear Stearns has accepted our plan, so you only have one weekend to sort out Bear Stearns." asset,"

Dimon waved his hand and asked his secretary to inform those who had been prepared to go to Bear Stearns immediately. He continued to talk to Geithner, "Even under such circumstances, we must ensure that Feng Yiping and his fund will be fully compensated." of more than $2.7 billion?”

At times like this, let alone 2.7 billion, even 270 million are very precious.

"Dimon, you already know the situation very well, don't you? You fully understand the consequences if you leave these 2.7 billion alone," Geithner hung up the phone.

Yes, Jamie Dimon is indeed very aware of the consequences of that. At such a time, it would be very unwise to offend those few people.

At this moment, the secretary informed him that there was a call from Mr. John, a Mr. John who represented Jobs, Page, Brin, and Feng Yiping.

Dimon knew immediately that this was the person in charge of that fund.

You found me so quickly?

"Come in," he said.

"Hello Damon," said John, sounding relaxed.

"I know you have a lot of work to do now, so I won't delay you for too long. I have a proposal that is very beneficial to your company,"

"We know that Bear Stearns once loaned US$4 billion to Blackstone to acquire Hilton. Your company also provided loans to Blackstone for this project,"

"That's true John," Damon, who was still very cold at first, immediately became enthusiastic...
